Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
I’M GOING INSANE YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP! | There was this Harvey x Fem Reader fic collection called Stubborn Love on AO3 by stripesandpolkadots. They were easily some of my All Time favorites! Unfortunately, the author took them down shortly after completing them (around December 2023, I think?) and that decision has killed me to this day.
If anyone at all has these fics archived, please send them to me. Also, please don’t ever delete your fics! Abandon them, anonymously post them—just please keep them accessible because there might be someone who adores it.
This is probably so dramatic but I really don’t wanna bug the author if I might not have to because I’ve already asked about this lmao. I just wanna reread it dawg. Thanks so much in advance <33

BACHELORS’ MUSIC PREFERENCES —STARDEW VALLEY HEADCANONS
SUMMARY: The bachelors’ favorite songs, artists, and genres!
CONTAINS: sfw, nothing worth noting
NOTES: Wrote this instead of an essay for college :) Spotify playlist links included! (tap the music notes beside each bachelor’s name)
— ELLIOTT ♪
• Genres: Classical, Britpop
• Artists: Pulp, Hozier, Pearl Jam
• Songs: This Is Hardcore, She’s Got a Way, Work Song
Elliott might as well have walked straight out of a sappy romance novel. He romanticizes life and that’s partly shown through the music he listens to. He loves poetic, slow songs about passionate love, or one that’s been lost. He likes to have classical music on while he writes/works. Classical piano music is what inspired him to play when he was younger. He loves the sound, the aesthetics, and the movement (plus, it was the easiest instrument for him to learn). He immerses himself in music, imagining himself twirling around his lover as he listens to Hozier, or loving his partner passionately while This Is Hardcore plays. Elliott himself is a passionate man in all regards and the music he listens to only encourages him further.
— HARVEY ♪
• Genres: Oldies, Lofi
• Artists: Pink Floyd, Queen, New Order
• Songs: Can’t Take My Eyes off You, As the World Caves In, Baby I’m Yours
Harvey enjoys calming, upbeat music. Preferably something he can turn on in the background as he works. Maru introduced him to Lofi. Since then, he keeps it playing in the clinic during work hours. He likes the calming mood it sets, as for some of his patients, going to the doctor can be anxiety-inducing. When he’s in a relationship, he loves to turn on the radio and dance with his partner to Frankie Valli or Queen. But if he’s not, he’ll day dream about doing just that, imagining himself deeply in love. Nothing warms his heart more than upbeat love songs!
— SAM ♪
• Genres: (80’s/90’s) Punk, Alternative Rock
• Artists: Misfits, Nirvana, The Cure
• Songs: Rebel Yell, Mrs. Robinson (The Lemonheads version), Astro Zombies
Sam loves everything about punk: the chaos, the rebellion, the energy, and volume. From an early age, he pictured himself on stage above a sea of people that enthusiastically sang along with him. Bands like Nirvana and the Misfits inspired him to pick up the guitar and rock out until his fingers became numb (or his mom complained about the noise). His and Sebastian’s favorite music influence how their band sounds. Therapy to Sam is jamming out to his favorite songs, getting completely lost in the music. When his dad was deployed and his mom became overwhelmed with his little brother, blaring his music was the only thing that could center and energize him enough for the day.
— SEBASTIAN ♪
• Genres: Emo, Post-hardcore
• Artists: Deftones, The Used, My Chemical Romance
• Songs: Dragula, Angelfuck, A Box Full of Sharp Objects
It was a phase until it wasn’t. After Sam introduced him to punk in their early teens, Sebastian found early 2000’s emo music through bands like Thursday, My Chemical Romance, Deftones, Taking Back Sunday, ect. They give him a safe space to feel and sit with his emotions without question or concern. He feels that these bands understand him when no one else does, bringing him rare moments of genuine peace through the constant cloud of angst that surrounds him. He likes to have it on whenever he’s in his room or working on his motorcycle. He could easily listen to the main emo classics hundreds of times over again without it becoming repetitive—which he has. Nothing feels better than drowning out the world (and his family) with blaring, emo music.
— SHANE ♪
• Genres: Metal, Hard Rock
• Artists: Alice In Chains, Korn, Soundgarden
• Songs: A.D.I.D.A.S, Bed of Roses, Closer
Shane has a lot of angsty feelings that are undealt with. Loud, aggressive, and angry music is usually his go-to, as well as some slower songs about heartbreak. He grew up listening to bands like Korn, Metallica, and Black Sabbath. After the deaths of his best friends (Jas’ parents) is when he really started to depend on metal to drown out his sorrows. He felt so angry and mournful but had no way of expressing that. He leaned into the hostile, melancholic sounds Alice In Chains and Soundgarden provided, along with other bands that produced the same. He’s also incredibly horny but you didn’t hear that from me.
— ALEX ♪
• Genres: Hip Hop, Lofi
• Artists: 1nonly, Tyler The Creator, The Neighbourhood
• Songs: The Beach, Darling I, Boys Don’t Cry
Alex likes to drown out to music, mainly while he works out (and recently, while he reads). He prefers music he can tune out so he can focus all his energy into his hobbies, and not have to worry about being distracted. He’s constantly listening to music—on runs, in the shower, in his room. He keeps a small speaker turned on in his room almost all day that plays a Lofi station. He found that he can spiral very easily into his worst thoughts if his mind isn’t occupied with external noise.

BACHELORS & THEIR SWEARING HABITS — STARDEW VALLEY HEADCANONS
SUMMARY: The bachelors and if they swear, what swears they use, and their opinions on it!
CONTAINS: sfw (?), coarse language, a little sexually suggestive in some parts
NOTES: This is a remake of an old post from my old dead account. I think I have a better understanding of the bachelors than I did when I made that post (because I was still new to SDV). I’m sorry if this isn’t great, I haven’t done this in a while :’) Enjoy!!
— ELLIOTT
• He’s the least likely to swear and you’ll almost never hear him do it
• Unless he’s very passionate about something or feeling very intensely, like if he’s very angry or sad
• I think he was more likely to swear when he was younger but the older he gets, the less he‘s prone to
• When he does swear, it holds that much more weight and meaning compared to someone who swears frequently
• It’s kinda sexy when he does too 👀🤭
• Also funny, depending on the context and situation
• Like I’ve said before, I believe that when he’s drunk, he has a lot less of a filter, making those the most likely times you’ll hear him swear
• “Oh, fuck me—so sorry, darling!” “I’m quite ‘shit-faced’, if you will.”
• He just has a way of always sound polite, despite what he’s saying
• He’s overall not opposed to swearing and he doesn’t mind or care if other people do
• Elliott has a wide vocabulary and therefore, more supplements for swears
• But he also understands that some situations call for swearing and that certain words can’t be replaced
• But that doesn’t mean he believes he’s better than anyone because he doesn’t! Swearing just doesn’t work for him
— HARVEY
• He’s absolutely dropped a few swears while working
• Harvey is a doctor and he understands better than anyone that swearing can be healthy
• Swearing can help cope with pain or deal with situations that someone might otherwise feel they have no control over
• He’s definitely been in stressful situations where mumbling a ‘fuck’ under his breath helps to center him enough to stay focused
• He understands there’s a time and a place, of course, he wouldn’t just drop an f-bomb in middle of your annual check-up lmao
• You’ll likely only hear him swear when he’s angry or stressed, but he will apologize soon after, even if it’s unnecessary
• Or during sexy times 😎 to which he doesn’t apologize
• Other than that, those type of words just don’t seem to frequent his everyday vocabulary
• He also kind of prides himself on being professional and swearing just isn’t
• Like Elliott, Harvey swears so little that when he does, it’s kind of off-putting and holds more significance
• Like if he swears while reprimanding you for passing out in the mines, you’ll be more likely to listen because it’s just that jarring
• It’s not that he feels one way about swearing, he doesn’t even think about it
— SAM
• You might disagree with me but he rarely ever swears
• In a lot of the fics I read, he does and it makes sense to me, him being a 20-something year old guy and all
• But I also think his parents have it so ingrained in his mind that swearing is bad and impolite, like it’s a cardinal sin or something
• They also want him to set a good example for Vincent, which Sam does
• But when he was younger, he’d get Vincent to say swear words and then crack up, only encouraging Vincent more
• Yeah, his parents were not happy lmfao
• Nowadays, he only justifies swearing to himself when he’s singing a song with swears in it
• He feels a little alarmed at how freeing it feels to swear when he sings at first, and he kicks himself for enjoying it
• He’s likely to swear the most when he’s with his friends (Sebastian is not a good influence on him in this regard lmao)
• Sam says the family-friendly versions of swears unironically, like ‘freak’, or ‘shoot’
• He was probably also the type to flip people off in school with his ring finger so that he technically couldn’t get in trouble (I literally did the same)
• He’d probably benefit mentally and emotionally by swearing more often if he didn’t take so much pride in trying to be perfect :(
— SEBASTIAN
• I mean. Let’s be real.
— He’s a moody teenager who hates his family and everything around him (not literally), of course he swears, and frequently too
— Playing a lot of online games with voice chat while he was growing up, he started picking up swear words pretty quickly
— Demetrius corrects him whenever he does, and because I believe Seb likes to piss him off, he intentionally swears in front of him lol
— Robin doesn’t care so much, unless it’s in front of Demetrius then she’s like, “Seb, c’mon.”
— And he just looks at her like “😏”
— Now that I’m thinking of it, he probably learned some swears from her as well
— Like if she was arguing with his dad on the phone or accidentally hurt herself while wood-working
— Despite Robin’s warnings that those are bad words, she couldn’t keep him from repeating her, so she instead told him the ‘time and a place’ rule
— They’re similar in the way that they probably don’t have much of a filter and Sebastian probably influences her more than she realizes lol
— He doesn’t really have a set way of swearing, he just does at any given time
— As a kid, he’d influence Maru to swear and then act all shocked when she did and his parents blamed him lmao
— Sam too, which Jodi was very upset by, considering Seb to be a genuinely bad influence on Sam
— As an adult, he no longer does that anymore and has developed a major soft spot for the way that Sam “swears”
— I think Sam unconsciously influences Seb to be less vulgar with his language
[ ALEX ]
— He actually canonically swears the most of all the bachelors! If you consider ‘damn’ to be one
— Like Jodi, the Mullner’s have taught Alex that swearing is impolite, but not necessarily bad
— I can imagine Evelyn covering her ears when he does and saying something like, “oh, my poor old ears cannot handle such harsh language!”
— He doesn’t have much of a reason to anyway
— He remembers his dad swearing a lot at him as a kid, or when he would yell at his mother so I think those kind of words can trigger bad memories
— He’s very aware of trying to be better than his father and if swearing is something his father did, he doesn’t (at least, not nearly as often)
— He’s careful not to swear in front of his grandparents, which I think is all their really concerned about anyway
— To them, it shows respect, and he respects his grandparents very much!
— I think they let it slide if he’s cheering for a game on the television or if he’s complimenting his granny’s cooking
— “Damn, granny! That’s incredible!” And she just smiles and scolds him half-heartedly
— You’ll probably hear him swear the most in the bedroom 🤭
— Or if he stubs his toe
— Equally arousing, if you ask me
— He sticks to the less harsh swear words like ‘hell’, ‘ass’, ‘damn’, and occasionally ‘shit’
[ SHANE ]
— You know CA wanted to make this man say ‘fuck’
— Swears the most out of the bachelors, regardless of… well, anything
— There’s ZERO filter on this guy
— Unless Jas is around, then he’s mindful of what he says
— Not that he or Marnie are worried about her picking anything up, she’s a good kid and very well-mannered
— If Shane does slip up, she’s the first one to scold him lmao
— He’s glad though, he feels like this means he’s doing well raising her
— He swears when he’s happy, sad, excited, angry…
— Seriously. No filter.
— He probably doesn’t even realize it much either
• I feel like when he and Jas first moved in with Marnie, she was quite strict about him swearing, especially since he’s raising a child
• But overtime, she’s grown accustomed to it, she probably even swears slightly more now because of him
• Jas has helped him to be less crude and he can now catch himself much better before he slips
• “Are you fu-” *Jas stares daggers into him* “freaking kidding me?”
• It is Shane after all, and people have learned to expect it
• When he was new to town, it definitely surprised people
• Pelican Town is small, no one really ever swears and swearing isn’t taken very lightly
• And then this guy just walks in and swears so casually
• It shocked people at first, to say the least
• Overtime, the townsfolk have come to learn that’s just how Shane is and that he’s a good guy once you get to know him!
• All that’s not to say that Shane just throws out swears all day, everyday though
• He is respectful and polite and only swears when it’s mostly appropriate, like around friends or in the comfort of his own home
• He’s just not shy about it :)

real picture of me resisting the urge to draw harvey after playing stardew valley for the first time (my exams are soon)
Me and Harvey watching a movie :D
my stardew valley pookies….
I made Farmer more anxious and shy (justs a tad) The timing is around spring and summer year 1. Maybe a gore warning? Just scars from the mines
Will not pass out in the mines, Refuses to. Out of spite and out of payment. 1.) What if it’s Harvey? Farmer hasn’t introduced themselves and it would be awkward. The only person that the Farmer trust is probably Linus, Robin, Marnie, and Willy. Trust that they are the first ones to get gifts once Farmer works out the courage
Probably won’t go to the Flower Dance in spring, it’s a bunch of strangers dancing. Why shouldn’t Farmer work on demolishing the rubbish around their farm? Get a good amount of wood, get stronger, and no need to small talk.
Only goes to Pierre’s shop right before it closes.
Finally goes to the clinic in Year 2. Safe to say that Harvey nearly had a heart attack. Farmer had to roll up their sleeves for Harvey to feel their pulse and lo and behold, scars from the mines. Not visiting the Clinic ever in their first year took a toll. The Farmer only had a med kit from Pierre’s to rely on so the deep gashes were just rapped with gauzes and Farmer called it a day. The scars just on Farmers forearms ranged from divets in their skin from the slime melting their skin to bites from bats to burns that never healed from getting close to the lava.
Thankfully the Farmers wounds never got infected and Harvey was too polite to ask about any other injuries. Maybe when after the Farmer and Harvey bonded more the Farmer will actually go to Harvey for help.
restorations // chapter three
read on ao3 here!
on my fifth day in the valley, i opened my mailbox to see a flyer informing me that a mine had opened up on the mountaintop. after grabbing my pickaxe and a few parsnips, i made my way up the mountain to be greeted by an older man with an eyepatch.
he introduced himself as marlon and warned me about the dangers i’d face below. with the wimpy sword he’d given me to protect myself with, i swallowed my fears and descended.
i’d already nearly exhausted myself on the third floor. just my luck, i’d supposed. i swung my sword wildly as a bat nearly knocked me off my feet. i reached in my pack for a parsnip, only to find that i’d brought only three with me, all of which i had already eaten.
gone already? what is wrong with me today? i thought to myself.
it suddenly occurred to me just how unprepared for the strength and energy that was required for this journey i was, leaving aside the simple fact that i had barely any of the required materials… my pickaxe was far too weak, my sword was falling apart, and i’d only just finished growing my first batch of parsnips (ninety percent of which i’d sold to lewis that morning).
these are the reasons i gave myself as why it was okay that i’d woken up in Harvey's arms as he carried me out of the mines and into town, maru trailing behind him with a worried look on her face.
i floated in and out of consciousness as we walked past the large house on the mountaintop, past the old, broken down community center, and finally toward the door of the clinic where he readjusted our positions so he could unlock his door.
i groaned as he cradled me in his arms and saw him look down at me, almost frightened.
the last thing i remember before everything going dark is making eye contact with the doctor as he walked us across the threshold of his clinic.
–
when i opened my eyes next, i was in a hospital bed with Harvey leaning over me.
he didn’t notice me open my eyes immediately so i just regarded him for a moment. i think he could feel my eyes on him after a moment because he suddenly remembered himself, his body covering mine in a way far too intimate for a doctor and his patient.
he tensed and i couldn’t help but reach up to touch his shoulder in an attempt to try to get him to relax a bit. he regarded my hand for a minute before meeting my eyes.
with a huffed breath, he whispered “hi. um, you got in an accident today. when maru found you in the mines, it appeared as though you’d been knocked out. by what, we still don’t know. i was able to repair all of your injuries without much trouble. do you have any insurance? i’ll need to bill you for the service.”
he paused for a moment before saying, “you know what? nevermind. let’s worry about that later. how much pain are you in? do you need more penicillin? i can get you some acetaminophen or maybe some benadryl but it’s a little late in the day–”
i was obviously still high as shit from the effects of whatever kind of drug the doctor must’ve put me under because in the middle of his diatribe, i brought up a finger to his lips and shushed him.
he seemed surprised at first, maybe even a little rattled, but softened almost immediately. “you’re right. i’m sorry, Calliope. i’ve been hovering, and i should give you some time to rest. or, at least, some time to be alone. maru told me that you have plans tonight at the saloon.”
had i not been “up in the clouds,” as it were, i might’ve wondered why the town doctor had asked his colleague if i’d had plans tonight, but as such, i simply said “come with me.”
his eyes had wandered to where my fingers had landed following their personal space invasion but snapped back to mine as he processed my words.
“n-no. i.. i couldn’t. i wouldn’t want to intrude on you four. and.. i wouldn’t feel comfortable. the old man in the corner… you’d feel obligated to include me in conversation and it’d make you miserable,” he said, taking a step away from the bed, and, suddenly, the room temperature dropped noticeably.
“wait,” i said, sitting up (and immediately wincing), “it’s not going to be like that. i promise. plus, it won’t be four of us and you. sebastian’s not coming. something about a looming deadline. it’ll be me, sam, and abby. and you. hopefully. and i need someone else there so that i don’t get caught third wheeling! they haven’t admitted it… but there’s something going on there, i just know it…”
as i conspired about a budding relationship between two of my neighbors, i turned my head and began chewing on my fingernails, a habit i’d picked up as an anxious eight-year-old and hadn’t been able to kick since. i had, however, not done it in public since fifteen.
when i finally realized that i was, of course, not alone, i immediately pulled my fingers out of my mouth and felt my face get hot with embarrassment. i couldn’t look him in the eyes as i mumbled an apology.
his mouth parted in a small smile before saying, “don’t be. i think it’s cute.”
my eyes widened, my head snapping over to him again. “what?” i said.
it seemed the doctor, too, was rendered speechless. he swallowed before pausing, as if to make up an excuse. finally, he said, “well! you are all patched up and free to go. let me know if you need anything else from me, Calliope.”
before i could reply, he turned on his heel and practically ran out of the room.
minutes later, i walked out into the waiting room of the small clinic, after gathering my things and ensuring i looked decent enough for the outside world. Harvey was there, and appeared to be busying himself with various papers.
i didn’t manage to catch his eye, but before walking out, i repeated my offer to him.
“just think about it,” i finally said. without a look back, i left the clinic, still in pain, definitely exhausted, and scared as hell that i might just fall in love after all.
HARV 10 HEART SCENE WILLLL BE IN TCOD I PROMISE U NOW
Harvey.
Harvey, what were we doing there for 30 minutes.
Harvey. Harvey asnwer me Harvey this is important Harvey
(Harvey 10 heart event spoilers if anyone hasn't seen it yet and is only planning)
it's late at night when you arrive at the clinic. harvey's at his desk, which you find peculiar. he's usually quite good about a work-life balance, even if he lives twelve stairs above his workspace. you knock on his door, but before hearing a response, you walk in. he looks... tired. you can see on his face that he's had a hard day. he looks up when you walk in and you see him relax a little.
he says, "just a minute. i've got to finish this report before I can close up for the night."
you nod, and sit down in front of him. you've never noticed how big he is before. he's handsome. a thought you've had before, but never one you'd really spent any time thinking about.
finally, he looks up again. he smiles, but it doesn't reach his eyes. you instinctively reach over and grab his hand in yours. your embarrassment is instantaneous. you attempt to pull your hand away, but he's already intertwined your fingers together.
you look up at him. he's already looking at you. the way he's looking... it takes your breath away. he's handsome.
"i think you're very pretty, doctor," you say, matter-of-factly.
he goes red immediately.
oh shit. "have I made you uncomfortable? I'm so sorry, doctor. i- it was never my intent to do so. please forgive me, i-"
you suddenly look down. he hasn't extricated himself from your hold. you look back up at him, blushing crimson. "doctor?"
"yes?"
you take a deep breath and say, "you're still holding my hand."
he looks down and back up at you again before simply stating "i like holding your hand."
HEHE i hope u like i just write wtv comes to mind SO IG this is it atm >:)
In case you didn't remember/know Marjorie is a mermaid and after many MANY dramas they're now happily ever after~
I love these three sm <3
Mermaid sisterss who are fan Stardew Valley characters my friend and I made bc that game is just perfect aa
Red one is named Onda and is my friend's character; blue lady is my girl Marjorie. They're half sisters with a dynamic in which Onda is the sweet, curious and docile one while Marjorie is wary, grumpy and overprotective. She also is extremely afraid and cautious around humans...but a certain doctor in town might've changed that 👉👈😳 (she married the guy without telling him she is a mermaid, the drama)
Onda (c) Ziquitex
Marjorie (c) Me
the below confession was submitted off anon:
-----
"Harvey's a dom" "Harvey's a sub" Harvey's whatever you need him to be. he'll do absolutely anything to please you, cause that's what he is. passionate. devoted. he'll tie you up to the bed if that's what you ask of him. he'll gladly let you tie him up to the bed if that's what'll make you happy. he's like a barbie doll which you can use however you please. he just wants to be loved. he just wants someone to worship. an atheist who would pray every single day if that's what it took for him to have you.
(or at least that's what I think who even cares lmao I'm just silly)
also you can hc whatever you want as long as you're not aggressive towards how other people read and write a bunch of pixels with about a hundred or less dialogue lines that gives us very close to nothing about his personality it's not that deep I promise
-----
HAPPY HALLOWEEN GUYS
Accurate
the feminine urge to move to stardew valley and marry harvey
Fight me, Harvey 💪
Maru's gotchu, homie.
