Another project I need to finish up… Stardew Valley portrait redraws!
Started this in **shivers** 2022…..
Terrifying.
I wanna do the whole cast, ending with Alex since he’s my favorite and I know I’ll completely lose any drive to do it if i don’t save his for last.
A part of this project was for it to be an exercise in facial differentiation- hopefully all the characters will end up looking unique enough. Also I just like rendering faces.
Hey so this is my first time making a request and english is not my first language so sorry if my grammar is all wrong; so I just started playing stardew valley and I just love the saloon and all the mini games and food and then I just got struck with the idea of like the farmer getting drunk (maybe after an successful harvest or good time in the mines) and unfortunately the farmer is a lightweight and a very affectionate and clingy drunk, kinda wanted to see how all the bachelorettes plus the mom trio would react to it all. Thanks for taking time reading this.
CW: Obsessive behavior, yandere bachelorettes and older women, manipulation, SFW, alcohol, being drunk.
A/N: Thank you for the ask! I got a similar ask, so I put them together. I don't have personal experience being drunk but I think it might be fun to explore. Your English is good, don't worry!
You have been running errands for most of your week, collecting some money. So on friday you decided to finally treat yourself to a cold beer. You rarely drank this much, though, gifted the beer by Gus. Before long, you started feeling lightheaded, smile growing dopey. Poor Gus realised something was wrong when you started flirting with Emily just a few minutes in. Your face grew red, form swaying as you tried miserably to climb over the bar counter.
Emily was faster, jumping in a clean arch to steady you in place, her palms pleasantly cool against your burning skin. You smiled and nudged your nose into Emily's neck, feeling her hug you closer. Emily made a delighted sound, something between a coo and a laugh as she let you lean into her. Needy and drunk. Somewhere in the room, a heavy presence stood up, Leah appearing from the shadows by your other side. Leah said something to Emily, her eyes narrowed. Emily laughed, light and teasing, sharply retorting with something that made Gus's eyebrows rise. Leah scoffed, jabbing a finger in Emily's direction and quickly pointing to the door after. When both of them seemed to reach some sort of conclusion, Abigail appeared out of nowhere, pressing you to her.
You leaned into Abigail, palming her back as you hugged her, happy to feel warmth. Now, both Leah and Emily were arguing with Abigail, the purple-haired woman, smug as she lifted you up into her arms. She, however, felt Haley pull away her attention, now both of them arguing loud enough to part the haze of alcohol around your head.
"You want to take advantage of her!" said Haley, her words sharp. You instinctively pressed into her side, feeling her hands settle on your hips possessively. Abigail only scoffed.
"Look who is fucking talking!" sneered Abigail, lips parted.
"Abby, language," sighed Maru, appearing beside her. You deftly swirled into her arms, hearing her breath hitch. She held you close, lips pressed to the crown of your head, mumbling something about 'awfully affectionate'. Abigail gasped, pointing at Maru with a huff.
"You are thinking of it too!" Abigail retorted, making Maru's lips twitch.
"Too?" asked multiple bachelorettes, staring at Abigail. Abigail blinked before visibly deflating. Then the arguments started again, loud voices startling you. Soft hiccup left you, startling the young women in turn. Pillowy arms suddenly reached to pat your head, pulling you into an equally soft chest. Immediately, you calmed, nuzzling into Jodi's sternum. She cooed gently, calming you, fingers threading through your hair. Robin and Caroline swam in your vision, hushed chastising coming from them. Dangerous, planned properly. Maru tried to argue with her mother but the older women already pulled you out of the saloon, leaving both Maru and Demetrius confused behind. Though the two of them were confused for different reasons.
Chilly air lapped at your burning cheekbones, stars winking down at you through blurry gaze. Robin managed to lift you into her arms, holding you curled in her strong arms. Muscles shifted beneath you, fingers cupping your nape gently as Robin whispered something to you. You couldn't make it out, nudging your face into her shoulder. Someone's fingers lifted your head, Caroline's shadowed gaze meeting yours as her slender digits pressed into your chin. She smiled reassuringly, moving your head side-to-side.
"…weight?" she asked, her words muffled from the pounding of your head.
"Mm?" you asked back, eyes hooded.
"Are you lightweight?" Caroline repeated, following Robin, who held you like you were the most precious thing in the world.
"Yah," you grumbled, head pressed to Robin's shoulders heavily. She shifted her hold, letting you rest more comfortably against her. She clearly enjoyed your affectionate side, her nose pressed to your temple.
"You shouldn't drink so much then," chastised Jodi, though she didn't sound too mad. You heard a creak of a door before feeling the soft bed under your body, your bed. Robin set you down softly, though you didn't want to let her go fully. Instinctively, you reached for her neck, hugging as if your life depended on it. Robin heaved out a startled grunt, body leaning into you awkwardly. Jodi and Caroline stayed behind, waving goodbye at you behind Robin's shoulder. Moonlight flashed in the dark sky over their features.
"Hun," she tried gently, her hands cupping your elbows. You didn't budge, peaceful in her hold, warm. Robin didn't push back at all, enjoying the touch a bit too much. Only when footsteps approached the bed did Robin pull back, if only a tad too fast.
"You look guilty, Mrs Robin," said a soft voice, Penny's words weirdly cold. You turned in time to watch Robin scramble to put a respectable distance, Penny tucking you in. "I can take it from here."
Penny sat by your side, hands gently carding through your hair as she stared down at Robin. They didn't say much but Robin relented, muttering something about 'Creepy younglings'. Penny won whatever was happening and lay by your side, her fingers weaving through yours. Her eyes bright in the dark, predator hidden in plain sight, waiting in bushes to crawl out while others fight.
