Stardew Valley - Grapefruit Sky (Dr. Harvey’s Theme)

[harvalou]

Stationary Sunset

Spring rolls in on the breeze

The cold wind breathes life

Into the meadow sea.

The plane, a stoic beast,

Is poised perfectly

And waits for a takeoff

That is stuck in time.

This is how the pilot prefers it

This stationary dream

Will never leave the ground.

Reality ruminates in the recluse

While everyone watches

The fantasy

Of a grapefruit sky.

Costume Sentence Starters

Happy Halloween! Send my muse a reaction to seeing them in a costume, whether positive or not so positive. 

“Wait. We were supposed to dress up?” “You look…adorable!” “Ah! J-jeez, I didn’t even recognize you!” “Ugh, you know I hate that mask!” “Are you really going to go out like that?” “I don’t know. I think we’re a bit too old to dress up.” “You don’t think it’s a little too revealing?” “I don’t have to match, do I?” “I’m not so sure about our theme this year.” “Oh shit, I didn’t get a costume for myself!” “How do you still look beautiful in zombie makeup?” “Okay, I admit, I like it.” “You know what would look good with that costume? Fire. Burn it.” “I think you might offend someone with this.” “What are you even supposed to be?” “Wow. Maybe we should stay home and have our own party.” “You know, it’s not really a costume if you just dress like yourself.” “Ooh, I love your costume!” “Wow, how creative, you look like a normal person for once!” “Well, it’s certainly original.” “How much fake blood did you use?!” “Whoa. You really went all out this year.” “This isn’t a costume. You’re just wearing a pair of cat ears.” “I feel like there’s an inside joke here but I don’t get it.” “Honestly, you’re terrifying.” “You look way too incredible to wear this for only one day.” “You look like something that crawled out of hell and I love it.” “I’m going to be seeing you in my nightmares. Thanks for that.” “Are you serious? I was going to be the same thing!” “Please don’t make me dress up.” “I’ll go with you, but I don’t do couple costumes.” “I think you spent more on the dog/cat’s costume than your own.” “Wow, did you make this yourself?” “I think this costume really reflects who you are as a person.” “Your costume is ten times better looking than mine.” “This is the most elaborate costume I have ever seen.” “Why are you wearing a trash bag as a costume?” “Did you just steal my clothes to dress up as me for Halloween?”

headcanon #2: harvey enjoys poetry, both reading it and listening to it.  some of the ‘bigger picture’ stuff goes over his head, but he enjoys how some pieces make him feel; in his opinion, that’s what poetry is supposed to do.

   Harvey leaned back in his chair and watched the rain from the front windows.  He tapped the end of his pen on the desk idly.  The day was finally beginning to feel sleepy, now that things had calmed down.  Moss, the new farmer, had been brought in from the mines a couple of hours ago.  Now that his injuries had been taken care of, it was time for him to sleep it off.  The clinic was closed for the day, but Harvey still lingered behind the desk.  He hated leaving while someone was in the hospital room.  For now, he’d wait until the farmer woke.  Shouldn’t be too long now, right?

Placing a pair of headphones on, the doctor began to tune into a particular station on his pocket radio.  Soon enough, he was humming along to a tune on the air as he enjoyed the languid atmosphere.

“Listening to the radio is a lovely way to pass the time. You must have a favorite station you listen to. What kind of music are you interested in?”

She was quite curious about him. He seemed like a lovely man, and he certainly looked good. But he seemed so nervous, too, and she wasn’t sure why that was. Did he know of her status in another country? She hadn’t told anyone here about it. Maybe it was her clothes that gave her away, it wasn’t every day you met someone in a regal dress, adorned with pounds of jewelry.

In any case, she wanted to learn more about him. Maybe make a friend in this strange new land.

“I have never been to a saloon before, it was considered improper in the country I am from. But I am curious to see what one is like.”

harvey’s eyes lit up a little at the information.  “ really?  well, i suppose every country has its own culture and such.  the stardrop saloon has a great atmosphere.  the owner gus made sure to order a bottle or two of my favorite wine a few years back when i first moved here!  he takes care of us here, heh. “

a thought struck him and he hesitated a little.  “ if you don’t, ah, drink that’s okay too!  his food is really good, too, and he’s got this great hot chocolate he makes around this time of year.  if you have a free night, i’d definitely suggest swinging by. “

he dug around in his jacket pocket, and produced a pair of headphones a moment later.  awkwardly he held them in his free hand while his other fiddled with the small radio he kept on his person.  “ it’s nothing weird, i promise.  honestly i just really like any song with a nice guitar in it, and nice lyrics.  have you heard of death cab for cutie? “

“What? No. Harvey, I’m making a reference to Shia LaBeouf.” Sam should have taken into consideration he probably hadn’t seen that video. Concern for his bleak outlook on life replaced whatever follow-up comment he’d originally planned.

Sam understood it wasn’t that simple. He tried achieving his dreams as a musician, but he’d taken on a lot of responsibilities with an absent father as well. Life did complicate plans. “Do you need to talk? I mean, yeah, things get hard. You shouldn’t completely give up on what you want though.”

   “ Oh!  Oh, I see.  Right. “  Now he’s said too much.  Harvey stuttered for a few more seconds.  Trying to put everything into words would make it more real and...pathetic.  Still, he’d be lying if he said that he was actually over it.

The doctor tapped an idle rhythm into the saloon counter.  “ I guess...it’s strange, how different your life can be from what you imagine it could’ve been, “ he said finally.  “ Because of things you can’t control.  Sometimes it feels like things are too far along the tracks to change, though, you know?  I don’t know.  I think my life would be safer if I stayed here. “  Awkwardly he sipped his glass of wine.

“ Sorry.  It’s been a...bit of a long week, obviously. “

[harvalou]

   “ h -- hello? “  he must have heard something.  he could’ve sworn that he heard something.  “ is anybody, u-uh, there?  we’re closed for the day!  i’m sorry if i forgot to lock the doors.  or, uh, put up the sign... “

“The winter does fascinate me, even if I am not fond of the cold. It snows in my home country, as well.”

She didn’t much like being out in it, but she did love the appearance of winter. And she did love the cozy feeling of it all, snuggling under a blanket by a warm fire, sipping hot chocolate, it was all a beautiful thing.

“As a matter of fact, I have! My, I love reading adventure novels. I just recently finished a novel about a daring swordsman who goes off to save their royal kingdom.

What about you? What do you do in your spare time?”

   “ oh!  i, er... “  i like to broadcast from my home-made station in my tiny apartment in hopes that a pilot will hear me, because it’s the only way i can connect to my childhood aspirations nowadays.  how was he supposed to say that in a way that didn’t sound pathetic?  the answer was he probably couldn’t.  no, no, he’d probably just keep it to himself for now.  probably forever, honestly.

   “ ...usually, i just like to listen to the radio after work if i don’t feel like going to the saloon. “

well, that wasn’t not true.
