Since it's October, and just over a year since the RSV seasonal outfits mod was released, I thought it'd be fun to share some of the costume ideas we didn't end up going with from our brainstorming doc. These ideas were ultimately passed over for a variety of reasons (already worn by a different npc, too real world-specific, liked a different option better, etc.), but still would've been great to see... soooo here you go!
(If a character isn't listed, that's just bc we didn't have any extra ideas for them. Also, in case you wanted a refresher, here's a list of the costumes we did end up going with! Also also, bc I can't help myself, I added in some ideas as I was making this post - those ones are in [brackets].)
aguar: doc brown/mad scientist
anton: running forrest gump, the dude, jack sparrow, [flynn rider]
ariah: wendy darling, elle woods, ruth bader ginsburg
maddie: handmaid's tale uniform, marie curie (then proceeds to get mad at everyone for not recognizing her costume)
maive: queen of hearts
pika: jason momoa's aquaman, sinbad (from the 2003 movie)

torts: stegosaurus
ysabelle: britney spears from "hit me baby one more time" or "oops i did it again"

bryle and faye: captain america and black widow, [bonnie & clyde]

freddie and lola: quasimodo and esmeralda
ian and sean: [shrek and donkey]
keahi and trinnie: sharkboy and lava girl, pokemon to match blair and sean (probably meowth and jigglypuff (trinnie insisted on being a cute pokemon even though jigglypuff's not part of team rocket))

I'm curious to hear others' ideas too, so if you have any, feel free to share in the reblogs/replies! ^^
Good lord, is it that time of year again? :D
Since 2021, Grapefruit Sky SDV server has been creating an Inktober list. Beginnng with the wonderful @buttonso's list back in 2021 and designed by @hannahstumble the event has become a regular in our calendar.
This year, we've teamed up with Stardew Valley Fanfic Writers for our prompts along with a couple of other servers.
The great thing about this carefully curated (by me!) list is that it is absolutely 1.6 friendly, but also, SPOILER FREE BABY! So if you haven't played 1.6 yet, this list is perfectly safe to use! :)
Please feel free to share far and wide, there is also a dedicated Collection page on AO3 if you want to add your fic there :)
AO3 Collection (be patient with me, I've never done this before, but if you need help signing up let me know here :) )
Don't forget, Inktober is not just for writers, it's for everyone! You can do anything you want and you don't have to do it all!
Okay, enough of me, here's the list, I'll post it a couple more times until Inktober starts, but have fun!
And feel free to share - everywhere! <3
rsv marriage candidates and whether they can drive
why? bc i'm bored... feel free to send me any other prompts if you have them!
alissa: no, but she occasionally drives her dad's truck around the orchard for chores.
anton: yes, but his car has been broken down for months now, and instead of getting it fixed, he's just been mooching rides off his siblings.
blair: nope! she just gets her mom or sean to drive her places instead~
bryle: absolutely - he's certified to drive cars, trucks, motorcycles, and armored vehicles.
corine: yep! feel free to call her if you ever need a ride, okay? :) (seriously, you can call her at like 3 am and she'll be there, no questions asked.)
daia: no, but luckily she's a master at guilting people into offering her rides - the world is her uber.
faye: got her license only recently after having hired drivers most of her life... she's the type to obliviously cut across three lanes of highway traffic to her exit with a bumper sticker that says "silly goose on board".
flor: yes, when she has to... but if anyone honks at her she *will* pull onto the shoulder to cry
ian: no - he can't pass the written test...
irene: yes, and she's also an avid collector of cute bumper stickers! this one is a strawberry with a smiley face!
jeric: well, he has his motorcycle license... why, you want a ride? ;)
jio: jio doesn't know what cars are.
june: um, no? what do you take him for, a str*ight???
kenneth: yes, but he's more interested in building motor vehicles than driving them...
kiarra: yup. she drives an old subaru outback with a zillion bumper stickers that say stuff like "support your local pollinators" and "no human being is illegal". oh, and her car's name is sally ride.
maddie: yes... but she road-rages like overworked ex-military trucker. do not ride with her unless you've made your peace with god.
paula: not only does she have her license, she's one of the best drivers you'll ever meet. (years of driving MEVs across gotoro battlefields will give you that.)
philip: yes - his dream car is the incredicar, as seen in the first movie adaptation of incrediman, "incrediman vs. the royal serpent" - but right now he drives a handicap-accessible minivan, yknow, for work...
sean: yeah, he has a truck he can use for work stuff - but don't look in the backseat. it's littered with empty gatorade bottles and fruit gummy bags.

“I must say, you’ve got something truly beautiful here, Mr. Goldsworn,” he said with a coy smile. His dark brown eyes shone with a devious glint.
Ysabelle fought the urge to gasp again. June maintained eye contact with her as Richard happily responded.
“Thank you, thank you! Believe it or not, this hotel was originally built as a safehouse for the war. My late wife and I bought the deed and remodeled it into what you see today. And really, June, you can call me Richard.”
That made June drop his gaze and turn to face Richard. “Oh, sorry, sir–… er, I mean, Richard… haha...,” he said bashfully, placing his hand on the back of his neck.
Ysabelle’s brow furrowed in confusion. No way this awkward boy was the same person who made her heart skip a beat just a moment ago… right?
i wrote this back in 2022 for valentine's day, after having a conversation with rafseazz about the potential between june and ysa - and here i am over two years later, still totally obsessed with the pair ^^ (seriously, i have a google doc for them that's nearly 50,000 words worth of random ideas/drabbles/drafts)
NEW CHAPTER IS UP Y'ALL! Took me a minute because of travel and life and stuff, but here it is! This one gets heavier than some of the others have been, please heed the content warnings.
