    Summary

    Shane has lived in Pelican Town for the last five years, renting his aunt's spare bedroom as he tries to provide for his goddaughter Jas. He rots in a dead-end retail job by day and drinks away his nights to cope. He wants nothing more than to be the man his family deserves, but even when he's sober, he knows he's just a waste of space.

    Ember has been disinherited from her religious family but feels equally out of place in the Zuzu City punk scene. She is adrift without a course, unable to stomach one more day of her Joja Corp internship. She's not certain her life has a point anymore. In fact, the only time she feels capable of happiness is when she is elbow deep in dirt at the community garden, or making something with the harvest in her cramped apartment kitchen.

    Ember and Shane get off to a bad start when she moves to her grandfather's dilapidated farm next to the ranch. It gets worse when she starts her new job at Joja Mart to cover living expenses, making them not only neighbors but co-workers. But even when tempers have flared and shit has very much hit the fan, these two fucked up people find themselves drawn together in a family they did not expect to find.

    Summary

    Some would say they had each other at 'hello', You were amused by his "Fuck Off" more than anything in this small town.

    Was it wrong to repeatedly bother the town's drunk on purpose? Nah.
    Is it creepy to shower him in weird gifts? Of course not! You do that to everyone!
    Should you continue attempting to make conversation with him while you block his way to work? Absolutely.

    Once you get close enough you can convince him to marry you for tax benefits and get this man to be yours. Two birds, one stone.

     

    Or:

    Shane is a flustered depressed bean, and we're a classy girl subtly making him ours with our charms~ ',:)

    Don't you hate it when YN is a weak ass horny bitch? Falling to different characters big strong arms? Being a clingy, stuttering, damsel in distress? I hate it. So why not switch it up? This man ain't gonna know what tf he got himself into.

    Summary

    When you arrive in Pelican Town, you're looking for a fresh start — an escape from the noise of city life and the weight of your own regrets. But it doesn’t take long for you to notice Shane—a man who keeps to the shadows, drowning himself in beer at the Stardrop Saloon.

    He’s the town’s outcast.

    Despite his rough edges, you can’t help but feel drawn into Shane’s orbit. Little by little, you uncover glimpses of his broken life, making it impossible to turn away. As you try to help pull him out of his downward spiral, you realise you’re slipping in alongside him. In a town that thrives on growth and renewal, you must decide if you can bring yourself to care for the one man who seems beyond saving—or if you’ll end up just another ghost in the back of Shane’s mind.

    Summary

    Lorsqu’elle revient à Stardew Valley, Gemma espère trouver refuge dans la quiétude de la ferme de son grand-père, un lieu chargé des souvenirs d’une enfance insouciante. Mais le passé, loin d’être figé, se révèle imprégné d’ombres. Shane, son meilleur ami d’autrefois, n’est plus que l’ombre de lui-même, muré dans une mélancolie que Gemma s’efforce de percer.

    Dans ce cadre rustique, où chaque saison semble murmurer des promesses oubliées, Gemma fait la connaissance d’Harvey, le médecin du village. Un homme réservé, dont la douceur et la droiture s’opposent au tumulte des sentiments qu’il suscite en elle. Entre l’amitié brisée et l’amour naissant, Gemma devra braver les non-dits, les silences et les épreuves, dans une quête de rédemption et de bonheur.

    Une histoire d’âme et de cœur, où les liens se tissent et se dénouent au gré des saisons, dans le souffle discret d’une vallée qui observe, éternelle et immuable.

    Summary

    The farmer, Peyton, may or may not have been getting to know Shane for some months now in a somewhat unconventional way.
    What started with hateful banter turned into drunk flirting, which turned into vey intoxicated (yet honestly pretty passionate) sex. Sometimes in the saloon bathroom, most times late at night in her farmhouse, and always while drinking.

    Lately, their time together has been slowly becoming less and less strictly sex and their conversations have turned deeper and deeper.

    Peyton isn’t sure if Shane is also confused about what they “are” or where they are headed, but she also doesn’t know a whole lot about the demons that he carries with him, which may be the reason they’ve only gotten so close.

    This is a small excerpt of a larger fic. This scene takes place on Black Friday, the day after thanksgiving, when the farmer uses bringing pie to her neighbors as an excuse to see Shane
