Find your pearl, fall in love with a girl.

[@V4LENT1NA_H3RE]

At the end the way Nino said “Emily.. You and sandy are next 😏..” made my jaw drop 💀

[@amomeaxgacha549]

It’s true tho

[@thisrandomperson1843]

This makes me wonder what other mods there are like the Sam/Sebastian and Penny/Maru mods.

[@thisrandomperson1843]

@HistoryNerd-iv9px In the base game, Sandy and Emily are friends. Haley is Emily's sister.

[@nazeehaletsplay4366]

HELL YEAH THEY ARE

I need that mod ASAP

[@reddeath707]

Really named his farm "YAYLESBIANS" His hearts in the right place.

marnie after eating the huge omelette gonna be saying 'Mmm... YAYLESBIANS eggs.' and i love that thought

[@duckbutdangerous]

They always seemed like they would be able to date and for it to be like a very great couple

[@shiratojin]

everytime they sit together on the bench at the town I point and go ‘lesbains!!!!’ also they have REALLY good chemistry together or whatever. Penny is so shy and sweet, Maru is confident and a Girlboss inventor. Together they make a GREAT wholesome couple. I love them. (also they both have JUST a bit of parental issues, but on the opposite spectrum. Pam doesn’t care for Penny, Demetrius cares TOO much and is way too overbearing on Maru.)

[@massylia2911]

Oh god, we have the same pfp and I got scared for a moment there 💀

[@kranberry3318]

@@shiratojin I bet they have the most intelligent conversations

[@IAmTheStig32]

@@shiratojin Maru is obviously into STEM, space exploration and robotics, while Penny is into literature and history (inferred by how she likes artefacts as gifts). Two intelligent women with different expertise but enough brainpower to keep up with each other. They'd be really happy and successful together.

[@lapinajustleft]

I always shipped them when I watched them on the bench. So this mod is like reading a weird Wattpad story about it where they drag one of the characters the LI is friends with to be an obstacle

[@summerwatson3794]

I love how in the sam and seb thumbnail Nino was suffering from “gay panic anime nosebleed” but in the thumbnails for this one he’s all “yay! Go my lesbians! Go!”

[@annecantgame]

I really want there to be mods for stardew where you can play match maker in a way, and have it actually work out and effect everyday life. This should also go that you can break people up afterwards if you wanted.

[@someone-pe3yt]

Dhahhah that would be amazing

[@hydriusp.2485]

instead of getting a cutscene where everyone finds out you were dating every single one of them they find out through some really weird way that they're all somehow dating each other and never realized I have no idea how it could get to that point but I'm sure someone could figure it out

[@staydetermined6717]

@@hydriusp.2485 That sounds like a fanfic tbh

[@GuiSmith]

I've seen other folks mention this, like it was kind of sad that the townsfolk didn't resolve their relationships with each other. I remember someone specifically said that rival hearts are only so good when you have different headcanons and so on. Still wondering how I could make a highly configurable mod for this that makes that work, in addition to stuff like Rival Hearts and Free Love, or with some of their features replicated... All this to say, I and probably several other folks are working on solutions.

[@zelou4970]

ooo yeah theres a lot of unresolved relationships in stardew valley, also we need a therapy mod for clay, hes a little creepy

[@Avery_lolz]

When I first saw them sitting next to each other on the bench I shouted “Girlfriends!” And I’m glad this is a reality now

[@Datone_girl]

Same thing I thought!

[@Justdoingthistocomment-de9qk]

Just the fact that when penny confesses I was already laughing when she yelled it but the “YOUR SON LOOKS LIKE A GIRL” made me wheeze

[@pikachie4671]

It feels weird watching this mod, because I'm happily married to Harvey. And I always assumed that Harvey and maru have this awkward relationship where Harvey tries to be a cool boss, but is too awkward/nervous to be one. and maru simply appreciates his effort. I never thought that anyone could interpret their relationship to be anything more, than an awkward somewhat friendship.

[@TheGhostBoast]

FOR REAL

[@a_reelskitface]

Harvey's just autistic (In my eyes, at least), mans just wants to show his appreciation for Maru's help, but doesn't understand how his actions may come across, and since Maru works with Harvey, she understands that Harvey is just trying to be friendly and a good boss, and all his actions come from a place of platonic appreciation

[@t00tt00t]

Yeahhh 😭😭😭 They just have an awkward friendship I feel like he does NOT have the courage to actually tell her

[@Morrislover.they.xem.]

Fr. That’s how I interpreted it too

[@CF-yu8fh]

Bro he thinks about putting sunscreen on her shoulders and clearly plans to ask her at the Flower Dance. He's a good husband candidate for the farmer, but there's no doubt he was trying to get with his nurse 💀

[@AJ.is.Better]

We got Sam and Seb FINALLY WE HAVE PENNY AND MARU‼️🙌

[@Iloveruireal]

I need Harvey and Shane next

[@afoolishmortal5265]

Someone did say that if Stardew was ever done in a show or movie type format (which CA only said he'd only do if Studio Ghibli would make it), it'd make the most sense for the farmer to just be cupid and ship all the towns people with eachother instead of dating one of them.

[@levievil9220]

The creator knows what he wants for the movie and who he wants now the question is do they accept it

[@fionadavies7732]

"I forgot i made Maru French- NINÓ" PFFFTTT 💀💀💀💀

[@caora100]

when i first played i LITERALLY thought they were dating when i saw them on that bench so often..... so funny how a single mod can really complete agame

[@Waveosea]

I'm imagining Sebastian downstairs listening to all this like: *sips tea* Bonus: I'd be down there with him and I'd bring the tea.

[@insertsomethingcoolhere]

I'm so excited for Nino to start the list he found during the stream! It's going to be a fun series, and I've always headcanoned Sandy and Emily as dating

[@dakota.000.]

It's just gonna be like Nino: "Emily I know you like sandy it's time you confess" Emily: "We are already dating, I was planning on proposing to her next week"

[@theirwolf453]

When the bus is fixed Emily will see Sandy on her birthday every year following that and I love that for them

[@sidous471]

As soon as Penny said "Can you pretend to be Maru" I knew Maru was gonna walk in >_>

[@IceRabbit9]

It's interesting to see Demetrius thinking like a normal person. Not only is it strange because Harvey's her boss, he's also like twice her age isn't he? Idk, maybe it's just me but I've always found him kind of creepy. Not as bad as Clint, but he comes close.

oh that would be SOO cute can you imagine? Old gays that had to hide it their whole lives, probably the Wizard being a lil thought about letting his feelings flow, Linus being heartbroken over the Wizard being married and having an affair with another woman? And then Linus just decided to drop dating bc he was insanely in love with his "het" best friend and such

[@ReadingIsMyHobby_19]

Abigail, Haley, Sebastian, Penny, Maru, Alex and Sam as 19-24 years old. Leah, Elliott, Shane, Harvey, Sandy and Emily as 28-35 years old. Clint, Caroline, Robin, Willy, Marnie, Demetrius, Kent, Jodi, Gus, Pierre, and Pam as 40+ years old. George, Linus, Lewis, Evelyn and The Wizard as 55+ years old. So Harvey is like 4-7 years older than Maru.

naw its not stupid ur onto something 🙏

Harvey could help him with his recovery way better than the farmer ever could. And based on fanart, they seem like popular gay options since they're both harry lol.

Harvey is actually really creepy with Maru. Even when you are married to her with kids he still says the line about wanting to put sunscreen on her shoulders at the luau
