#So...many virtual hubbies and I'm still barely scratching the surface...

[loraluna]

Wanted to do one of these for the longest time. Figured it would be a good idea to get on it before the next SoS and RF games come out XD

Original meme here. My thoughts and reasonings for my choices below.

MFoMT/B&G: Rick, the adorkable guy next door. Literally. Sincere, hardworking and fiercely protective of the ladies in his life. Just don't ask to date his sister.

MM: The characters in this game aren't too terribly complex. So when in doubt, go for the cake-loving cutie with a start up business and puppy dog eyes. His name is Carl~

AWL/Cute: I'm not usually one to go for the obvious popular choice, but in my opinion Skye really is the most interesting guy from this game. He's a dashing thief archetype with a random supernatural ability and way too much free time on his hands. Under the 'cool guy' facade though, he's a bit of a dork.

IoH/SI: To be completely honest, I never married Pierre, but during my short, frustrating playthrough of Sunshine Islands, he a was an adorable distraction. a cutie foodie with the confidence to rock a big purple hat~

ToT/AP: My sweet insomniac Wizard~ What is it about this guy that I love so much? The cool motif, the quiet wistful expressions, the amusing bluntness? IDK but I still adore this sleepy stargazer <3

GB: Angelo, the adorable, impish little artist seeking his muse. Never make a bet with him. You will regret it.

ToTT: Mikhail is a charming traveling musician who appreciates music and nature. A bit difficult to court, but a lovely partner overall.

ANB: Soseki is another one of those bachelors they refer to as an "older" man but in reality he's probably like 28 or something. He's funny and certain you can do better than him. He's right.

SoS: I hadn't planned on pursuing Fritz, but was pleasantly surprised by his heart events. He's a lovable goofball who wears every emotion on his tattered sleeves and is always willing to lend a hand.

3oT: Ludus is a capable hardworking guy who handles a lot of odd jobs in his town. He does take on too much sometimes but only because he cares so much. Additionally his hair and grandma are very cool~

SoS:FoMT: Gray sort of ties with Rick from the first round. He's socially awkward but sweet and has some hilarious expressions in the older games. I saved him for this slot since I'm not a fan of Rick's redesign in this game :P

PoOT: Ralph is certainly...there. He's a quiet animal lover, doesn't really stand out much...to be honest none of the candidates in this game wowed me, but he's a dependable guy.

SoS:AWL: Gustafa, and yes, I would and did still marry him with his old design. The guy is just so chill and worldly but he will drop everything to become your loyal househusband~

RF:ToD Bismark, my short king. I didn't expect to fall for him, but honestly he seems the kindest and most devoted out of the four bachelors you're given in this game. It's also sweet seeing his confidence grow over time.

RF4: Vishnal, he's....He's just peak husband material okay? All the characters in this game are fantastic, but he is just THE ONE. He's sweet, he's funny, he's selfless, he's hardworking, he cleans, he dual wields, the only thing the man can't do is cook.

RF5: Lucas is just...divine XD (pun intended) He's a classic gentleman with a bit of a mischievous side to him. He also has an odd way of making the most beautiful or unhinged things sound completely natural in everyday speech.

Freespace 1: A special place in my heart goes to Owen, my first ever HM hubby, from Tree of Tranquility, my first Harvest Moon game~

Freespace 2: Lastly all the boys who just barely missed the cut, Yuzuki, the absolutely precious artisan of 3oT, Kana the hunky horse boy I never got around to marrying in ToTT, Gill, the snooty rich boy who actually cares deep down I promise (ToT/AP). And Dylas, the hunky horse boy I did get around to marrying from RF4 XD

Aaaaand I honestly could have crammed in more but five freebies already felt pretty cheaty. I just adore this franchise and the character that came from it X3
