Fun fact: Elliot now says something about beach combing if you give him a sea shell!
I don't like how the birthdays from stardew valley are set up in the real world. Like most of December is in the fall according to the solstice but Sebastian's birthday is winter 10 and we've decided it's December 10th.
Nah, let's give all the characters accurate birthdays in accordance with the seasons.
I'll set it up 2 ways:
1. Taking the earliest dates of each solstice and equinox that defines the seasons and dividing that by 28 (number of days in a stardew valley season) then multiplied that number by the NPC's bday (I'll explain the math later)
2. Taking the average amount of days in-between each IRL season and dividing that by 28
Earliest dates are as follows:
Spring March 19
Summer June 20
Autumn September 21
Winter December 20
The length of each season in this method is
91 days for spring
93 days for summer
90 days for fall
90 days for winter
The average days in between is 91.5 days.
Dividing by 28 we get
3.25 Spring
3.32142857 Summer
3.2142857 Autumn / Winter
3.267857142857143 Average
These numbers are the difference between our real world dates and stardew valley dates
Our season are about 90 days long, their's are 28 days so
1 day for stardew players is about 3 days for us.
Now that we have these numbers let's find out how each day correlates to each villager.
It will be in order of earliest birthday to latest and will follow this format
NPC-Season-ingame Bday-Bday(method 1)-Bday(method 2)
Kent- Spring 4- Apr 1
Lewis- Spring 7- Apr 10
Vincent- Spring 10- Apr 20
Haley- Spring 14- May 3

Leo- Summer 26- Sep 14- Sep 12
Penny- Autumn 2- Sep 27
Elliott- Autumn 5- Oct 7

George- Autumn 24- Dec 7- Dec 8
Krobus- Winter 1- Dec 23
Linus- Winter 3- Dec 29
Caroline- Winter 7- Jan 11
Sebastian- Winter 10- Jan 21
Harvey- Winter 14- Feb 2- Feb 3
Wizard- Winter 17- Feb 12- Feb 13
Evelyn- Winter 20- Feb 22- Feb 23
Leah- Winter 23- Mar 3- Mar 5
Clint- Winter 26- Mar 13- Mar 14
If there is only one date on the NPC that means both dates are the same
I'd like to thank @cloverbug83 for helping with the math.
TL:DR The dates in stardew valley are incorrect and I updated them according to IRL seasons.

Trying to make some pride art for this month like I usually do, so trying to start that off with a messy Elliott Stardew Valley. Still trying to break through my burnout so getting inspiration is always great, even if it’s messy fanart.
honestly, smash.
stardew valley bachelor beta portraits vs final portraits!!!
Elliott grew up wanting to be Westley from The Princess Bride.
Camellia Station officially has over 500 hits!
I know that’s not indicative of people who read it in full or individual, unique users or whatever
Still though… it feels like a huge milestone and I’m proud of myself 🥹
It’s my first long fic (and my second fic since I started writing fiction four months ago). Idk just feels special.
If you’re interested, check it out on AO3!
I may or may not have something to shamelessly plug:
Camellia Station
(Elliott/Shane fic, at 26k words now and going strong, strangers to lovers!)
the below confession was submitted off anon (its a long one):
can someone hear me out on shelliott? (shane/elliott)
they have actually been consuming my thoughts ever since i first started playing. at first i thought combining their dynamics would be funny, but guys.. i dont think its a joke anymore,, ...
IN ALL SERIOUSNESS PLEASE HEAR ME OUT
elliott moved to stardew valley for a change. shane has been living here for ages, living an endless cycle of deprivation and misery (in short, he has not felt change). he meets elliott, who of course is glad and excited to life a new life, whereas shane'll live the same old routine. like w the farmer, shane would be extremely cold to elliott, pushing him away because he sorta pisses him off with his sunny aura and all that, but as all things go, elliott is eager to know more about him, and boom.
shane 2 heart event but theyre at the beach. elliott happens to pass by the guy, sat on the docks south of the beach surrounded by an 8-pack of beer. shane tells him how he feels, and elliott realizes why shane acts the way he is — rude, annoyed, pissy — because he can't seem to catch a break from helplessness.
he understands it, both in a sympathetic and in an aesthetic way — not aesthetic as in he romanticizes it, but rather sees the beauty in such an ugly feeling — and he listens, even if he can't help in the way shane needs it. he listens because he could.
i also really just cant get over the events that could happen during shanes 6 heart event. BECAUSE??
shane asks him why he shouldn't roll off that ledge at that moment. elliott, face soaking wet from both the rain and his tears, tells him it's because the world would mourn those who don't live long enough to realize living is to love. and from shane's point of view, elliott is the world.
all this include these hcs too:
adamant and persistent x given up w life and distant
LOVER X THINKS HES UNLOVEABLE !!!!!
sees the beauty in life x sees the ugliness
elliott's demure nature changes when he witnesses shane at his lowest
shane thinks elliott's romantic schtick is a whole lotta nonsense, but he slowly warms up to it and eventually indulges on his own
overall shane just being in denial because he fell for elliott's cheesy romantic shit. "no way in hell am i gonna like that guy with his long swoopy hair... and his weirdly kind way with words... and oddly comforting aura... and... FUCK"
anyway i hope this spreads my shelliott propaganda. SDV FIC WRITERS PLEASE WRITE MORE SHELLIOTT‼️‼️
Camellia Station
Name: Camellia Station
Fandom: Stardew Valley
Ship: Elliott/Shane
Status: Ongoing
Notes: Chapter 8 preview. Not edited yet.
Read the whole fic on AO3
Someone else was with her and Shane couldn't bear to look at him in anything other than a side glance. Elliott wore a somber smile as he stepped forward and held out his parting gifts. A composition book, not one of the kinds with metal spiral binding, but one stitched together on the inside. The other was a leather-bound copy of some old book that Shane didn't read the title of because he was too embarrassed to be getting gifts at all.
"Thanks. Uhm… super thoughtful," Shane said as he set his bag down, took the books, then rubbed the back of his neck with his free hand.
"My pleasure. I'm… we're all very proud of you, Shane. This path is a thorny one to walk, but you have the strength to see it to the end. I believe that whole-heartedly."
"Fuck's sake," he huffed, eyes stinging.
The past four days already left him feeling like an exposed nerve end. Three days in the clinic to detox and wait out a 72-hour hold, one spent at home so he could pack while his paperwork got approved. Harvey worked quick to make sure there was a bed ready for him at a six week program in Zuzu. Shane suspected the good doctor planned for this well in advance.
Now he stood here, belly full of pancakes Marnie helped Jas make, and had to endure an unexpected going away party. They might be there to actually see him off or they could be there to make sure he didn't walk in front of the train. Maybe both. Probably both.
Emily got the balloons off the basket's handle and pressed it into Shane's open hand. He had to readjust his things, stuffed the books into his bag so he could get out his ticket when the train came. Once that was settled, Emily pulled him into a big bear hug. He froze, stunned for a moment that she was hugging him at all and that she was so damn strong. Then he returned the hug with as much strength as he could muster. Over her shoulder, he met Elliott's eyes and held them for a moment before looking away.
"When did you start lifting steel beams for fun? What the hell?" He asked, wheezing a little for effect.
She pulled away, took a step back and wiped her eyes as she giggled.
"You'd be surprised what carrying kegs around can do for a girl."
Shane picked up his bag, felt the extra weight of his gifts in it. Felt the extra weight of other people's expectations. Or maybe it was their genuine good will? As he looked between the two of them, Shane honestly wasn't sure what was better or worse.
Was he suppose to say something now? Make a speech or cry or gush about how much their support meant? He had no idea how to behave and it didn't look like they did, either. At least he wasn't the only one who wasn't equipped for this kind of thing. The three stood in relative silence, Emily only chiming in now and then with a word of encouragement or a remark about how the fog started to clear up.
Elliott tried to keep up the conversation, but it kept petering out, returning them back to uneasy quiet periodically. But Shane appreciated his effort. He appreciated Emily's, too, but Elliott held more weight in his mind right now. After all the weird shit that went on between them since the Spring, it continued to amaze him that the guy would keep showing up. That Shane kept wanting him to show up.
Faint anxiety stirred in Shane's chest. It occurred to him that Elliott might use Shane's stint in rehab as an excuse to put some distance between them. It was his life, sure, but the thought that Elliott might choose to stop coming around made Shane nervous in a way he couldn't quite understand. It was like the feeling he had right before he got the results from all the x-rays and CT scans when they were trying to figure out if he could play gridball again. Like something bad that he never anticipated was just around the corner.
A train horn sounded in the distance. Almost time.
He decided to see what a little courage might feel like.
Been playin a lot of stardew 1.6
I'm gonna marry this man >:3
An assortment of various video game characters :3
oh no another ideaaa
oh dear i think i've come up with another idea:
a weird crossover between hotel dusk and stardew valley
how would hyde end up in stardew valley? idk maybe he finds a letter from his grandpa or somethin kinda like in sdv
maybe he gets sick of workin for red crown, and decides "fuck it, i'm gonna be a farmer now."
Probably takes place sometime in the mid-80's, putting him in his late-30's to early-40's.
could also take place in 1981, since Cape West apartments have closed down and he needs a place to go, he finds the letter, and then decides to go, since he's got some closure with different aspects of his life, and probably wants to try somethin new.
maybe he offers to take mila with him, since she'd probably have finished college by that time (if mid-80s)
i think she'd go, idk
i think hyde would end up with either harvey, shane, or elliott.
With harvey, i think he'd get annoyed with him telling hyde to take better care of himself, and to be careful in the mines
with shane, i think he'd dislike shane at first, since he's kind of an asshole (but hyde's a bit of an asshole too, so it's kinda like a bit of a feud between them). But he eventually comes around, and they find that they some stuff in common idk
with elliott, he'd probably get real annoyed with the flowery speech and what he perceives as a pompous demeanor. But idk maybe he realizes that elliott isn't as annoying as martin summer, and isn't a cowardly fraud like summer. hyde probably has a bias against writers because of that lol.
also i'd bet hyde would really like joja cola, since i'm pretty sure he says that he's addicted to cool pop in last window.
i really wanna make a new game and play as hyde lol, but i also wanna wait til 1.6 is released on console (c'mon concernedape, it's been six months exactly, how much longer do we have to wait T_T).

I don't know if I'm being late to notice this in the new update. When I had my farmer attend the Luau Festival on the beach, I couldn't help but notice that everything looked different. The NPC's have changed their spots, and the Luau Potluck has switched places with the dance floor. Though it took me some time to notice the change, I have to admit that I really like the new arrangement! 😮✨🏖️🍲
Farmer: *can't find Sebastian in town*
Farmer: Dammit! I can't find him anywhere. This calls for drastic measures.

Farmer: Eeek, that worked a little too well...
Other Townspeople: *others find this amusing, annoying or secretly recording the scene from the start and post it on their social media*
Hiiii Mousey! (✿^‿^) How are you right now? Hope you're doing well there.
Anywho, I had this idea while on a car ride, listening to some band songs. I had to write it down right away before I forgot it. I don't know if anyone has ever sent this to you before, but What if the farmer used to be a popular and famous singer, but because of the stress from fame and the number of stalkers they encountered, they decided to resign/quit and move to the valley to start anew, hoping no one would recognize them. However, one day, the farmer accidentally blurts out their secret to their NPC spouse and this made the farmer very worried. Now, here's the thought: How would the SDV&SVE Bachelors/Bachelorettes react to finding out that their farmer spouse was once a famous, popular singer? 🎤🎸
Hey hey 👋 I'm fine, a bit busy due to work (December is always a pretty busy month for me) but so doing pretty well, thanks for asking ❤️
Ooooh, your idea as an alternative start for Farmer arriving in the Stardew Valley, love it! Thanks for the ask, and have a good day!
_____________________________
SDV/SVE bachelors/ettes with Farmer as a former famous singer
SDV/SVE bachelors:
Even with the changed clothing style and new hair colour, Sam recognised Farmer as a famous singer almost instantly before Farmer blabbed about their past career. You bet, because Sammy is not only a music lover, but also a big fan of this musical group! He will shower Farmer with questions and autograph requests, but the joyful guitarist immediately restrains himself, remembering that a reaction like his is one of the reasons why the singer left the band. Sam apologises to Farmer and gives them some space. He in no way wanted to make his own lover uncomfortable.
"Wow... That's so cool." Sebastian is also pleasantly surprised about the fact that Farmer who came to Stardew Valley is the same singer from his favourite alternative rock band who left due to many cases of stalking. However, emo's own reaction is very calm, with adoration and admiration in his eyes, but no obsession. He knows that his beloved Farmer is a human being just like him and respects their feelings. Seeing that Farmer didn't want to talk about their past, Sebastian swears to them that he won't tell anyone about it.
Elliott stared at Farmer in surprise, eagerly waiting for an answer. Now the writer realised why he'd always thought he'd seen/heard Farmer somewhere before! Truthfully, instead of continued delight, Elliott was silenced by the look of weariness and sadness on his partner's face. He heard about Farmer as singer, but was completely unaware of the reason for their departure from show business. He would make a hundred apologies, assuring them that if Farmer didn't want to tell them, he would respect their wishes. Of course, Elliott's curiosity will torture him a little, but for him, his spouse's happiness comes first.
"Okay." No, Farmer was certainly glad that their husband Shane didn't jump madly around them like their fans in Zuzu City, but they'd expected, well, a more reaction than that. "You want me to try to rip the hair out of your head like those 'fans'?" Fair enough. Shane himself isn't much of a music lover, but Jas loved listening to Farmer on TV, and she was the one upset to tell Shane that her favourite singer had been bullied many times and they'd left. He's glad Farmer was able to escape that madness and there's no way his attitude towards them is going to change.
Alex nearly dropped his ice cream cone in surprise. "I always do the training to your songs! They give me so much motivation!" Farmer explained to their enthusiastic husband that although their songs were motivational and upbeat, Farmer themself wrote everything under constant stress due to pressure from managers and fear due to obsessive fans. Alex had no idea how bad it was and hugged Farmer tightly, covering them with kisses. The athlete himself will keep Farmer's anonymity (though he will sometimes squeak with delight inside, because wow, his spouse is so cool!).
Harvey had noticed Farmer's very familiar first and last name long ago when he entered their patient data into medical database, but had taken it simply as a coincidence. Even as spouses he didn't know the truth when he didn't mention this funny coincidence, to which Farmer had casually said they were than singer, not the namesake. The doctor's reaction was calm, and he assured Farmer that he understood why they hadn't told him the truth, and promised that their secret would not be revealed.
"I know, dear..." Farmer thought Victor would be shocked, as they knew their hubby is fan of their songs, but in the end it was Farmer who stood there with a surprised look. The spaghetti lover with his hunches found out information on the internet that helped him connect the dots, but he didn't want to confront his spouse on the subject, fearing that Farmer would mistake Victor for the same awful people who called themselves "true fans." Both spouses would have a long talk, sharing the truth. Victor made his own promise that he wouldn't tell anyone about Farmer's past career.
"Do you remember that when we first met, I told you I'd seen a part of your past?" And after those words, Farmer realised that Magnus had known about their singing career from the beginning. Why didn't he ask? It was none of his business to pry into their past, and if his lover wanted to tell they would. The wizard can't even imagine just living in an urban setting, so with a bunch of people following you around and interfering with your life. He also feels sorry that they associate Farmer's singing with bad emotions, because they have such a beautiful voice and are obviously happy when they are singing a song in the forest.
It seems Lance had heard of Farmer as a singer a few years ago when he arrived in Zuzu City as an ambassador from his clan. Many people were jumping in excitement about Farmer's new song, but the gallant adventurer genuinely understands why they left. Sometimes people can go overboard in their obsession with their idols. Of course, he will keep their secret, and if any of the fans show up on the doorstep of their farmhouse, Lance has promised his spouse to protect them and teleport the unwanted guests (first just away, and then - into a pile of manure if they get pushy).
SDV/SVE bachelorettes:
"You mean... Wait, really?" Honestly, Maru hadn't expected this turn of events. The young inventor had heard Farmer's songs spinning on the radio, even though she wasn't a strong fan of their music genre ("Sorry hon"). After Farmer decided there was nothing to hide and shared about their career and the reason for their retirement, Maru was horrified. So the scar on Farmer's arm was put there... by fans?! That's terrible. Maru consoled her spouse as best she could and promised to keep their secret.
Farmer realised what they'd said out loud and lightning-fast covered their already excited Abigail's mouth with their hand, who had said more than once that she was a big fan of this particular singer (Farmer, as it turned out). Before the purple-haired girl could do anything about it, her spouse dragged her away from one spot and explained why they were leaving. "Oh shit... Those people are just bastards." And she herself had almost blabbed to the whole town know about... "You okay, love?" Farmer is much better since they have found happiness and family in Stardew Valley.
Penny is completely shocked to discover that her spouse is the one and only nationally famous singer. Farmer and their new look was completely unrecognisable. But not even just a new image, but they're much happier. The young teacher has heard many stories that under the pressure of managers and the crazy crowd Farmer was seen more like zombie. She was sorry to hear that her spouse had been through all that, and glad that they had found happiness and peace here, with her.
Haley already had some suspicions, as Farmer was not only the namesake of her favourite singer, but also looked similar, but did not voice her guesses aloud. When her lover had accidentally blabbed about this, and had already decided to reveal their secret on such an occasion, Haley just thanked them for their trust in her. Previously, she would not have understood how it is possible to give up the glamorous life of a beloved pop star, but she realised that life with dependence on caffeine, under the fear of crazy fans and people who are only interested in money from concerts, is not a life but a living hell.
Emily's eyes shone with joy at what she heard. Her wonderful spouse was that talented singer, whose songs the blue-haired girl loved to dance to on Valley's festivals and at other times when she felt full of energy. However, immediately she became sad, as she knew why the singer left the stage, so many toxic people and negative aura around them were... Emily in no way wants Farmer to think she's like one of those fans either, and promised to keep their secret.
Well, Leah guessed, since besides the similarity in appearance and the fact that the last name and surname of her spouse and singer are the same, Farmer came almost as soon as they left their singing career. Aloud she did not voice it, as she considered it unnecessary to "pry" from her spouse the truth and understood where such paranoia in keeping the secret. Hundreds or even thousands of people, like her ex, or even worse, who follow you... Brrr! She comforted Farmer and assured them that she would take their secret to the grave. And if someone does find out, she has plenty of sculpting tools to fend off her spouse from the "fans"...
So Lewis telling Olivia about Farmer being a former clerk at Joja was just a cover so people wouldn't recognise them? Makes sense, or else her and Farmer's home would be overflowing with crazy fans carousing for their idol. Although Olivia herself isn't much of a fan of their music style, her spouse's voice is truly beautiful when she listened them. City life, especially for a famous person, can get very exhausting, so Olivia truly understands their secrecy and reluctance to discuss the past. And yes, she will keep that secret, promise 💖
"Wait, is it true? You really are-" Scarlett jumped up on the spot, not believing her ears. Her dearest Farmer is the famous lead singer from her favourite music band! She loves listening to their albums while she's busy sewing a new costume for the comicon and- wait. The same singer who quit their career because of crazy 'fans'. "Oh, man.... I'm sorry, I didn't mean-" Even though Farmer assures her it's okay, Scarlet feels a little shitty because they were standing in the middle of a public square in the city, and if anyone heard her joyful shriek.
Of course, Claire raised her eyebrows in surprise as Farmer told her that they had worked as an accountant at Joja before, and here was a whole five year career as a singer, and such a talented and popular one at that. It was only when the cashier wanted to question why her spouse had hidden it that she recalled the "incident" with fans that almost cost Farmer their life. "I'm sorry about that..." Still, Claire is glad Farmer was able to get away from it all and found happiness in farming.
Sophia's eyes widened slightly in surprise and the dots connected in her head. Her lover came to Stardew Valley at the same time as the famous and much-loved singer (whose song played in her favourite anime!) retired. The girl is sorry to hear that Farmer had to endure so many horrible incidents in their career as a singer, as breaking into their home or fans trying to kidnap them despite the security.... She dreaded to imagine what it had been like for them. Sophia, instead of jumping for joy that it's one of her favourite singers, silently hugs Farmer.
Hiii, mousey! (◕ᴗ◕✿)
I heard you're planning to take a break from requests, and it's understandable. But I hope I'm not too late to send this idea. You know the assassin fanfic I requested before? The one about how the mages and adventurers react to the Farmer's past as a runaway assassin. Well, I thought it would be interesting to see how the SDV Bachelors would react if they discovered their spouse is a former assassin who now wants to lead a peaceful life.
(I was suppose to send this to you early but I got sidetrack, it'll be like my last request by the time you take a break but its okay if you don't want to.)
Heya! 👋
I got your question right after the askbox was closed, so yeah, have some more headcanons for this interesting idea, and thanks for the ask! 💖
_________________________________________
...So the news that Shane saw on TV crime program about this criminal gang.... Was it connected to Farmer? It was all about contract killings, blackmail and robberies, and... Recruiting kids. And his friend was one of them. No, he's not blaming them. Come to think of it, if Shane was in a similar situation, he'd do anything to protect his niece and aunt. So it's not for him to judge Farmer. He's glad they were able to escape those bastards and their siblings are safe now.
Elliott was at a loss for words. The poet couldn't imagine that Farmer had to go through all this to keep themself and their siblings alive. That being said, this is the first time he won't hold back and say some not-so-polite words in the direction of these scumbags who robbed Farmer of their parents and threatened their relatives with reprisals. If Farmer needs support, let them feel free to stop by his humble cabin, or if they need to watch over their siblings.
Farmer and Sebastian sat by the mountain lake for a long time while the local emo listened to their story, which gave him goosebumps. Just like that, murdered in cold blood right in front of Farmer's eyes? And then... they had to do their dirty work or else their younger siblings would be killed too? What a piece of crap, these criminal scumbags. Sebastian admires Farmer's selflessness and bravery. But also... it's all good now, right? No mobs again, right?
As Farmer's siblings played with Vincent, Sam stood nearby with Farmer, his eyes wide open about his friend's past, which makes the blood run cold in musician's veins. The fact that they'd had to be in a criminal gang at such a young age... That's rough, he's sorry to hear that. Now every time Sammy sees Farmer's siblings running and laughing, the musician can't get it out of his head what kind of suffering their older sibling endured.
Alex's body was filled with rage. Not towards Farmer, of course, they were victimized by these bastards, who the athlete would have given a good punch in the face with his fist. But he can't understand why Farmer's parents got involved in the mob in the first place, having kids already. Didn't they realize they were risking not only themselves but their family?! He didn't mean say that, Farmer, it's just- Why should children suffer because of their parents' mistakes?
There were so many scars on Farmer's body when Harvey did the medical exam, even before they became adventurers. And the fact that all those scars were "punishment" from the mob's members... The doctor's hands were shaking. Farmer and their siblings were innocent children, they didn't deserve to be in constant fear. Harvey just hugged Farmer, silently. He's sorry for what happened to them, and will be relieved to say that he's once for Farmer and their quest to escape the cage and save the younger siblings.
It seems people really enjoyed the last headcannon post, so I have returned, this time with headcannons for the non-romanceable characters!
I love all of the characters in this game, and have created so many little dumb ideas for them, so here ya go!
We have confirmation that Linus came from a wealthy family, but put this life aside, donating his money to various charities and organizations to help others, and I like to imagine that he still enjoys working with these charities from time to time, whether this be shelter work, environmental care, or supporting other people!
Willy never had children, but took in Elliot as his own, teaching him everything he would need to know regarding the seas, and quickly takes in Farmer as well, after learning about their love for fishing.
Gus is a trans guy! I don't have any evidence for this, but I just adore Gus so much and need this in my life.
Gunther is a long-time DM, and runs a small group with some of the local teens, and maybe some of the adults! I feel like his fascination of antiques and old treasures has assisted his DMing skills, or possibly the other way around!
Kent has learned how to sew, knit, and garden in order to get closer with Jodi and the kids once he returned to Pelican Town. (He's trying to be a better dad, he already is such a good guy :])
Mr. Qi is quite close with both Sandy and Gus, considering them friends!
Pierre was a college dropout, yet still considers himself a "man of study", I'm sorry, I just can't see this man as anything but an arrogant asshole.
The Wizard is incredibly supportive of the queer folks in the town, and Farmer, and will offer help with anything. Gender change? He's got you. Voice manipulation? He's got the stuff. Just be careful if he invites you to share a pipe!
Marlon and the Wizard are the local salty gay couple, Statler and Waldorf style, and lurk in the back during the flower dance, taking the last dance for themselves.
Pam loves thrifting and going on antiquing sprees with Harvey, and she knows how to absolutely steal a deal, girlie would most definitely punch an old woman over an auction item.
This is all I have atm, but if you want more, please let me know!! I love making stupid little theories for the glorbos. :]

FLUFF ALPHABET W/ ELLIOTT — STARDEW VALLEY
SUMMARY: The Fluff Alphabet by @snk-warriors featuring Elliott!
CONTAINS: sfw, gn! reader, fluff, established relationship, spoilers for his 10 & 14 heart event
NOTES: I haven’t known what types of headcanons to post so I’m hoping this might inspire me. I’m taking requests, by the way, if you’d like to help a girl out! Enjoy!
A = Activities - What do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?
Elliott loves cooking and baking with his spouse! Even if you’re not great at it, he’s happy to teach you! As long as it’s edible, he’s happy and proud of what you made together. That phrase “a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach” applies to him specifically.
B = Beauty - What do they admire about their s/o? What do they think is beautiful about them?
It’s so hard for him to narrow it down but if he has to, it’s your generosity and strength. He could watch you do farm work for hours (and he has) and he loves that you’re so giving and that you don’t think twice about it.
C = Comfort - How would they help their s/o when they feel down/have a panic attack etc.?
Elliott is at your side immediately, asking how and/or what he can do to help. If you ask for a minute alone, for example, he’s preparing your favorite snack and movie or show. Or maybe a bath or shower, later reading you to sleep. He’s doing whatever he can to help you!
D = Dreams - How do they picture their future with their s/o?
He dreams of the typical white-picket fence dream: marriage, kids, growing old with you. More than that, he wants to take care of you, to protect you, to provide for you. As long as he knows he can do that for you, he can die happy.
E = Equal - Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?
I can see this going both ways. I feel like if you’re a woman or feminine presenting, he’s more likely to subconsciously take on a dominating role. If you’re a man or masculine presenting, the same still applies but less so. It’s not that he has sexist views! He was raised with these values in mind and it didn’t help that a lot of the media he consumed growing up portrayed a damsel in distress. If this makes you uncomfortable, you can tell him that and he’ll be much more mindful of how he treats you. Regardless of your gender, he’ll always be protective over you and that’s something you cannot change.
F = Fight - Would they be easy to forgive their s/o? How are they fighting?
Yes, without a doubt, yes. Even if you hurt him deeply, he’s already forgiven you long before. To quote James Fraser from Outlander because I feel like Elliott would think the same: "She asked forgiveness, and I gave it. But the truth is, I'd forgiven everything she'd done and everything she could do long before that day. For me, that was no choice. That was falling in love."
G = Gratitude - How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what their s/o is doing for them?
He’s eternally grateful for everything you do. For him and for the community. You saved him from dying a lonely hermit on the beach! For that, he feels he owes you everything.
H = Honesty - Do they have secrets they hide from their s/o? Or do they share everything?
He’s very open and honest! I don’t think he intentionally keeps secrets. Like with the piano, you didn’t know he could play so beautifully and he would probably not have brought it up unless you found him playing. Or if it didn’t come up in conversation, he probably won’t mention it. Except it’s something actually important, then you can trust he’ll tell you. But in that case, it probably wouldn’t be a secret.
I = Inspiration - Did their s/o change them somehow, or the other way around? Like trying out new things or helped them overcome personal problems?
You’re his muse! You inspire him every single day. You helped him to write his book. He runs a lot of things by you because he knows that you’ll give him kind constructive criticism.
J = Jealousy - Do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?
I don’t think he gets jealous easily. He gets jealous like the average person. When he does, however, he becomes passively aggressive. If he notices someone flirting with you, he’ll politely remove you from them and gently scold you. He might be a little petty so you’re probably going to have to apologize a bit more than you normally would.
K = Kiss - Are they a good kisser? What was the first kiss like?
YUP. He’s a romantic and very in tune with his partner and what they like. Your first kiss with him was magical. He wasn’t clumsy or too rough. It was sweet and gentle.
L = Love Confession - How would they confess to their s/o?
On a shabby little row boat out at sea!
M = Marriage - Do they want to get married? How do they propose? What would the marriage be like?
Yes! He feels it’s the natural next step to your relationship. He proposes to you on the beach while the sun sets. Your marriage would be pretty low-key but never lacking. Especially in the bedroom. You both are happy and content with your quiet lives on the farm. Whenever Elliott goes on a book tour, he brings you along, considering it a vacation.
N = Nicknames - What do they call their s/o?
Darling, love, dear, sweetheart, beautiful. He called you darling, love, and dear before but when you started dating, he added ‘my’ in front of it.
O = On Cloud Nine - What are they like when they are in love? Is it obvious for others? How do they express their feelings?
Elliott is pretty animated already but even more so when he’s in love. He’s much happier and carries himself more confidently (if you can believe it). I don’t think it’s obvious to anyone but his friends. Leah, for example, notices it almost immediately. He expresses his feelings through writing in his “secret book” of poems expressing his love for you or your likeness captured through a character in one of his books.
P = PDA - Are they upfront about their relationship? Do they brag with their s/o in front of others? Or are they rather shy to kiss etc. when others are watching?
Yes, he’s very proud to be yours! He doesn’t necessarily brag but he talks about you whenever he’s given the chance. He’s not shy about physical PDA either. Of course, nothing inappropriate but definitely touching you in some way or kissing you. He’s not in the least bit shy!
Q = Quirk - Some random ability they have that’s beneficial in a relationship.
Elliott is a very smooth talker. He almost always knows exactly what to say. And I know that would otherwise be a red flag but he does stumble over his words frequently too! He never wants to risk loosing you, especially over something that’s his fault.
R = Romance - How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?
He’s extremely romantic! He’ll happily help you around the farm and later take care of you when you come home: making dinner, bathing you, massaging you. He also loves reciting poetry to you whenever you’ll listen.
S = Support - Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?
You can count on him for any sort of support you need and he’ll gladly help you work towards your goal(s). He has always believed in you.
T = Thrill - Do they need to try out new things to spice up your relationship? Or do they prefer a certain routine?
He doesn’t feel like it’s a necessity. He likes adventure on occasion but he’s also very happy and content with your daily routine.
U = Understanding - How good do they know their partner? Are they empathetic?
He’s very empathetic towards you. He’s good at remembering details about you too, regardless of how insignificant it may seem. He remembers what you like and don’t like, things you’ve mentioned that you want, or little stories from your past.
V = Value - How important is the relationship to them? What is it’s worth in comparison to other things in their life?
He values your relationship the most out of everything he has! He’ll always put you (and your shared family) first. He loves you more than writing and reading—and that’s saying a lot.
W = Wild Card - A random Fluff Headcanon.
Elliott absolutely hates when people touch his hair. But you’re the only exception. Even though he may tense up a bit at first, he eventually melts into your touch. He trusts you with his life, and more than that, his hair.
X = XOXO - Are they very affectionate? Do they love to kiss and cuddle?
He’s super affectionate! He loves touching you, whether that’s through hugs, hand-holding, cuddling, or kissing. He takes any chance he gets to tell/show just how much he adores you!
Y = Yearning - How will they cope when they’re missing their partner?
When he went away on his book tour, he took to sending you letters. He also called you at the end of every day. He prefers to call rather to text because he wants to hear your voice.
Z = Zeal - Are they willing to go to great lenghts for the relationship? If so, what kind?
Absolutely! Anything you need—or want, even. You can always count on him. He’d pet a sea cucumber if it’d make you happy.

AFTER A HARD DAY’S WORK — ELLIOTT, STARDEW VALLEY
SUMMARY: After a long day of work, it’s nice to be pampered by your husband.
CONTAINS: sfw, drabble, gn! reader, fluff, established relationship
NOTES: My old account where this was originally posted was marked as NSFW for absolutely no reason at all? so I’m reposting it here for easier access. This is slightly edited from the original. Enjoy!
It's been a long day but you can no longer dwell on it as Elliott is immediately by your side and whisking you away to be pampered.
You agree to his suggestion of a bath. Lowering yourself in the water, you sit between his legs as his hands get to work, messaging you with skill. You ramble on about your day, telling him about the good and the bad and how you're so grateful he's at home, ready to pick up the pieces.
You listen as he tells you about his day in his smooth and sweet voice, low in your ear that sends a chill up your spine. But eventually, a comfortable silence falls between you, only your content sighs and the running of water to be heard. He holds you close and wraps his arms around your chest, pressing gentle kisses to your neck and shoulders.
You're draped in a fluffy towel once the water runs cold and Elliott escorts you to the bed. You snuggle up under the covers in your favorite nightwear, waiting for Elliott's return upon him excusing himself after getting dressed.
As he promised, he's quickly by your side again with dinner and a drink. And when you're done, he's relieved to see you happy and relaxed as you finally drift off to sleep with his promise of always tending to you after a hard day's work.

K so I was watching Modern Family and got to this scene and thought it would fit Elliott pretty well
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 :)

RANDOM ELLIOTT HEADCANONS — sdv, part 1
CONTAINS: sfw, references to alcohol and intoxication (written by someone who’s never consumed it), stupid American writing British people
NOTES: I seriously have to start posting more. I have so many drafts both for Tumblr and AO3 but I’m stuck in a mind set that my work isn’t good enough to post. BLAH.
— Elliott is a lightweight. Like extremely so. Two glasses of wine in and he’s already pretty wasted.
— When he is drunk, he doesn’t have much of a filter either. This is the most you’ll likely hear him swear and it’s honestly kinda funny. Or if he has a crush on you, he’s likely to confess by either flirting heavily or just out right saying he does.
— It isn’t until morning that he feels so much shame and regret for however he acted.
— This is a headcanon I’ve been thinking of recently: Elliott could be British (or whatever the SDV equivalent is.)
— I imagine he came overseas for college when he was in his early twenties or so.
— He probably tried to unlearn his accent in order to fit in better because he got teased for it and/or people assumed he was a tourist and tried to scam him (and he being young and naïve, fell for it a few times). You might not initially guess his fake accent isn’t real unless he tells you where he grew up.
— If he’s been drinking, his natural accent isn’t concealed as much.
— This was probably his first time traveling out of the country too.
— Elliott isn’t very good with technology. If we’re imagining Stardew taking place in the 90’s-2000’s, he’s probably very resistant to upgrading his typewriter to a computer or the landline to a cell phone, purposely not learning how to use them (which bites him in the ass down the road). But in the modern day, he genuinely just can’t understand how to learn, and thinking about it for too long gives him a headache.
— He prefers to be a passenger than a driver. He also doesn’t let people smoke in his car. The smell sticks and he would rather not have to deal with that.
— He has reading glasses for when he reads and writes. I imagine they’re either half moon or slightly oversized black frames. He’s a little far sighted. 🤏 The silver lining is that it gives off writer vibes so…
— Elliott has a PhD in English although he didn’t do a lot with it. He really likes the title and being able to say he has a doctorate in English, if nothing else. He probably minored in History as well.
— Elliott’s first crush was on Liza Minnelli, regardless of what you headcanon his sexuality to be. He watched Cabaret as a young teen and fell in love.
— Elliott was an anonymous writer who used a pseudonym when he first started publishing his work. Until he came to Pelican Town and was encouraged by the farmer to write, he was content without his work being traced back to him. He just likes to write and that by itself is enough for him. Plus, he’s quite shy, preferring to stay out of the public eye.
— Though he chose to live on the beach, his skin is very sensitive and he sunburns easily. He’s learned to be careful and he’s always had a good skincare routine. His skin has definitely darkened slightly since living in Pelican Town.
— want to request something? you can do that here!
