❝I feel like my assistance is needed here. A doctor’s always on call, huh?❞

// just wanted to let you know that i started playing stardew valley entirely bc of your blog and your amazing harvey, so tysm :"D it's such a good game and your characterization is so wonderful!

:OOOOOO!!!

You’re now one of us. Welcome to the farm.

But seriously though, thank you so much! I’m glad that I have a canon or at least close enough to canon characterization because Harvey straight up deserves it ngl!

❝H-Happy New Year! Hope it’s a good one...! Oh, and, be careful with the drinks, alright?❞

[villagedoc]

❝Happy Holidays! I-I’ve made some food. C-Cookies are on the house!❞

The subtleties of med school went entirely over Gooigi’s head, but at least he could fully understand the doctor’s next question:

“ Ꮆ ₒ ᵒ ꜞ 𝚐 ᵢ !  ҉   ”

It did fit him, didn’t it? He felt a little better emotionally from the compliment, if not physically. There was something about this stranger that made it easy to feel at ease around him; despite his vulnerable state, Gooigi certainly wasn’t scared. The doctor– Harvey– seemed too gentle and friendly to have inspired fear even if Gooigi had been prone to experiencing that particular emotion.

In fact, they thought they were beginning to better understand what Harvey had been saying before– the doctor was more like a Luigi than a Professor, it seemed, his kindly disposition taking precedence over his profession in Gooigi’s new attempt to characterize him.

Gooigi smiled, their expression a little less than clear considering their current semi-solid state. It wasn’t hard to guess how they felt about Harvey, though; they repeated his name in a warm, friendly tone, this time leaving off the “Professor” to show that the correction had been understood.

“ ਮ  ͣ  ᵣ ۷ ᵉ 𐒦 !!  𐍅 ٥ ᓑ  –  ғ ꜟ ᕽ ? ”

❝A pleasure to meet you, Gooigi. What a great name!❞ A genuine compliment from Harvey. Gooigi seemed like a pleasant individual. Their appearance literally did not matter to Harvey. It was the actions that were more important to him. It seemed that Harvey had done a good job at making himself approachable, as under their gooey mustache, the doctor could see a smile. That got a good chuckle out of him. Lightheartedness was felt. Almost to the point Harvey didn’t hear Gooigi’s question:

“ 𐍅 ٥ ᓑ  –  ғ ꜟ ᕽ ? ”

Oh! Gooigi had the correct idea. If they meant “fixing people”, then yes. That was literally Harvey’s whole job. Giving them a thumbs-up, Harvey nods.  

❝I do, actually. You’re right on the money! I “fix” people, and by “fixing” I mean healing. Do you need fixing, Gooigi?❞

Of course Harvey wanted to help, but he couldn’t force his help upon others. That was a part of his philosophy when it came to his practice, and he would enforce it. Even here.

this is the most basic answer, but I get audino vibes from Harvey. cosy and helpful and very soft

Common Pokedex Entry: It touches others with the feelers on its ears, using the sound of their heartbeats to tell how they are feeling.

Somft???? Helpful???? All very good qualities! Auidino is actually one of my favorite Pokemon, so I’m glad this connection was made! Let Harvey help u…. uwu

SELF-REFLECTION WAS OFTEN A PAINFUL process for Viren to put himself through, all thoughts of which brought him to the same conclusion after his years and years of servitude to the crown of Katolis: he could have done better. He should have done better. And he was a failure for not having done better. The late King had always been skeptical of his advice when it pertained to Dark Magic, but more often than not, Viren’s strategies were given the needed blessing to proceed. If the situation could afford a different solution, then Viren was more than happy to yield.

But when it brought about consequences beyond Viren’s foresight, he was the one to blame. The Dark Mage of court. King Harrow, in all of his wisdom and fair ruling, had pointed the finger at him, abstaining from all sense of shared responsibility for the kingdom’s woes. It was more than just frustrating. It was the tiniest fragments of betrayal that all mounted into their falling out just hours prior to the King’s demise at the hands of the Moonshadow assassins.

Was that truly all Harrow saw him as? An unruly servant?

That that would be the very last thing Harrow wished to impart on him… The very idea wrenched at his already aching heart.

All this brimming to the surface left Viren sitting alone on a bench cleared of snow and thankfully dried by the midday sun. He had taken comfort in the thought that Claudia could take care of herself, and Aaravos was… well, the insect at least, could evade being predated by Xadian wilds. Soren? He… didn’t want to think about Soren.

A kind, if not simply worried voice broke him from his thoughts and he looked up as if startled. Almost immediately he found his voice lost, and with a clearing of his throat, the tips of his ears reddened in sudden embarrassment. Was his moping really that obvious?

“I—uh—” he couldn’t possibly lie his way out of this one. He sighed, head lowering slightly, “…Being here has… given me time. To reflect on the past. Past mistakes. Past … losses. It’s all a bit… much to process at once.”

The man had finally noticed him. Harvey noticed the other’s body language quite well. ...Embarrassment? The tips of the ears seemed to redden. Harvey instantly felt rather guilty for approaching, but something about Viren’s actions had told him that... he was alone and feeling rather unwell. The head was lowered slightly, and Harvey picks up on this. His frown of sympathy deepens when ‘past mistakes’ were mentioned. How long had his feelings been festering, wondered the doctor. Oh goodness, hopefully for not too long. 

Taking a step forward, Harvey intends to sit next to Viren and be a listening ear. Sometimes that was all someone needed, right? Harvey had a very defined “I’ve got to fix this and here’s my methods of which to help” attitude when it came to his practice, but sometimes all people needed were someone to just, listen. Medicine couldn’t fix everything, especially with times like these, but maybe his personality could. 

❝... I see. You’ve been reflecting, have you? While it’s true I don’t know your prior experiences, I do know that you don’t deserve to be sitting all by yourself. Would you like me to sit by you, at least for a little while? It’s the least I could do for a person in need, no?❞

❝...Oh, and before you say anything, this isn’t trouble at all!❞ He adds on, as an afterthought.  Of course, I don’t wanna make you uncomfortable. But if you need someone to listen to you, consider me available. I have nothing else to do anyways!❞    It seems that his frown has been replaced with a small, sympathetic smile. He was right about the “having nothing to do” part, he didn’t have his own practice here. He should probably be looking for a job somewhere...

...But this was way more important for the time being.

This city really seemed to pick up on the fact that he liked animals, huh! First, it was Mr. Nook, and now it was this little rabbit.  Harvey, resisting the urge to drop everything and give a hug, instead bends down to make him appear a little less, intimidating. Not like he could ever be frightening, but he was well of his height in comparison. He’s grinning, reaching out a handshake for My Melody to take. 

❝Hi! Sorry, did I scare you?❞ He asks, gently, a kind gleam shining in his eyes.  ❝Pardon me. I don’t mean any harm! Are you okay?❞  

He’s still... internally gushing over how cute this tiny bunny is.  ❝...Can you understand me?❞ There seemed to be a pattern with the anthropomorphic animals here, they could understand humans. Still, he didn’t want to assume. Back where he came from, animals couldn’t stand on two legs nor talk.

This was just one crazy town. eh? Harvey didn’t quite get it, but he supposed he was slowly getting used to matters here.

“Huh?”

For a moment, Anda thought the stranger might have been talking to someone else. But the ‘someone help’ got their attention instead. (”…man…”)

The sun was down, the night was chilly, and their head still felt warm and stuffed with cotton from the cold still lingering in their system. But they already stopped–even pretending they hadn’t heard him wasn’t an option now. The man was certainly upset…

…No, leaving him would weigh on their conscience. So pulling their scarf up ofer their nose, they turned to walk back.

“Uh… hey.” … “Where, um… where’re you trying to get to? You’re in Archimedes.” (”I think… Yeah, this is Archimedes. Duh. I live here.”)

❝Errm... I’m trying to get to where my housing is? Condo... 452? Is that here somewhere?❞

Harvey didn’t know what these different “wards” consisted of. All he knew is that the city was split into them and his housing was in one of them. Gosh, he wished he was more familiar with the terrain. But he wasn’t. He was in “Archimedes” but he frankly had NO IDEA how he got here. A lot of walking.

❝I hope I’m not being a bother...❞ He states, trailing off, rubbing his arm awkwardly.  He didn’t want to be wasting time, but he didn’t want to be out here freezing either. His gaze drops to the ground, then back up to the other. A small smile.  ❝Do you have a name? I bet it’s a very lovely one. I want to thank the person properly who actually bothered to stop and help out.❞

[villagedoc]

❝You look.... so sad.❞

Harvey had just been walking by, but soon found himself gazing intently at the other man. The doctor could tell when something was up, 8 years of med school and the like trained him well. It wasn’t just his training, either. His personality seemed to click with others. Being a people-person with empathy, Harvey’s goal was to make sure others were alright.

Clearing his throat, the doctor holds eye contact. A concerned frown is seen under his mustache. His head was tilted slightly to the right.

❝Are you alright? I-I apologize if this out on a whim, but... I just figured you look like you needed someone to talk to.❞

Gooigi had little regard for his own personal safety, and while that hadn’t mattered much back home, he had just learned an unfortunate lesson about getting injured here.

Normally when he melted, he could guide himself the short distance to the Poltergust and reform in the safety of his carrying capsule. He had tried that here after falling face-first into a sludgy puddle of half-melted snow and ice, only to belatedly realize that there was no Poltergust to which he could return.

They had managed to reform fairly well despite that, but attempting to coordinate a mess of half-dissolved Goo into a stable, solid form without a safe container to rest in had proven a little too difficult for the poor ghostbuster. They had been losing mass left and right as they tried to limp themself home, and they were nearly ready to let themself liquefy again right there in the open when they heard someone addressing them.

“ …… ” They stared at the man, silently startled. A… doctor? That was something very close to a professor, wasn’t it?

“ !! ” Gooigi stumbled forward, intrigued, and offered the doctor a weak little wave. They could certainly have used some help, but, unsure of how to communicate their needs, they ignored the goo dripping from their edges and focused instead on the fascinating stranger in front of them.

“ ᑶ ᵣ ʳ ⚬ - ᵳ ₑ ˢ ᔆ - ᵒ ᵣ …! ”

❝...?❞ A startled gasp came from him.  Gooigi’s warbled response... that one uttered word seemed to convince Harvey that they could relatively understand him. 

❝N-No, I’m not a professor. I had some GREAT professors in med school, but where I am now? I practice medicine, not teach it.❞ Harvey wasn’t sure if Googi knew what any of his technical babble meant. He hoped he was getting the message across pretty well. Giving the other a smile, Harvey claps his hands together. Well! It seemed that giving this patient a clinical checkup would be hard, at best to do, but what kind of doctor would he be if he didn’t try.

❝Do you have a name? I bet, whatever it is, it fits you.❞ One of the first things to do as a doctor: establish trust with your patients. Harvey was really good at this. Giving holistic care was one of his philosophies. A relaxed posture and open body language greets Gooigi.  ❝You do know my name, yes? Harvey. Please, don’t be scared of me!❞

Gosh, what a great man.

{ 🍃 }  — “Oh-!” A human? Treating him equally? Nook hadn’t expected such a thing, and especially from someone so polite as to compliment him! With a bashful little smile, he rocks on his foot-paws, and reaches up to return the handshake with a firm, strong grip. Or, at least, as strong as a paw could be. “Thank you! Thank you, hm, yes, you have wonderful tastes, too. Your coat is a lovely shade of green, oh yes, very splendid!”

He bounces lightly with a pleased chirp. “A doctor? Hm, how very talented. Oh yes, and noble. Hm, me? Oh, nothing as noble nor interesting, oh no.” Humble, or as much as Nook could be humble. “Retail and real estate, my friend! Oh- but, hm, not here, I’m afraid… no, no, I work at a store for bees, but someday I’ll be up again! Yes, yes.“

Harvey grins. Mr. Nook was already quite a pleasant... individual to talk to! ❝Ah, thank you!❞ If only the townsfolk of Pelican Town could see him now, making conversation with animals. He wondered what they would think. Ah, but that thought really wasn’t important. Instead of thinking about it, Harvey regards the raccoon. ❝Oh, no, no! I’m sure what you do in real estate and retail benefits people too!❞ 

❝It must be tough, no?❞ He adds on. There must be a lot of paperwork involved. IF that was the case, Harvey could sympathize. Charting wasn’t an enjoyable part of his own job, but it had to be done.   ❝But, somebody’s gotta do it, eh? I take it that’s where you come in!❞

Practicing medicine was hard work, but Harvey had no experience whatsoever in the housing industry. For all he knew, Mr. Nook’s job was probably harder than his.
