Summary
Callie Solanen returned to the valley to reclaim her family's legacy and just wanted to fix things. Sterling Cooper left his heart in Zuzu City and just wanted any distraction he could find. Shane Wallace still lived here after damn near a decade and just wanted the new farmer to let him and Sterling kill their livers in peace.
Their choices end up completely changing one another.
Choices: Spring interweaves characters, lore, and storylines from the original game and a multitude of mods including Stardew Valley Expanded, Ridgeside Village, and East Scarp. This is a slow burn—a very slow burn—that also includes a bit of fluff and humor, a dollop of adventure, an unreasonable amount of flirting, and also some good, old-fashioned Blorbo Torture.
Story is complete.

Summary
Callie chose Philip, a sweet man with a heart of gold. She knew better than to waste her life on a dream that would never happen.
Sterling chose to let her go. He would never be a good man, but he’d do his damnedest to be a good friend.
Shane chose to ignore the rope she threw. He refused to let her pay the price her help would cost.
But the thing about choices is that sometimes, it’s one and done, and sometimes, it’s something you have to choose over and over and over. When you realize that somewhere along the way mistakes were made, do you make a different choice? Or do you double down?
Choices: Summer picks up directly after Choices: Spring and continues to interweave characters, lore, and storylines from the original game and a multitude of mods including Stardew Valley Expanded, Ridgeside Village, and East Scarp. There's romance, fluff, humor, world building, magical bullshit, and just the right amount of Torturing the Blorbos.
Fic is complete.

Summary
Shane screwed everything up for himself, for Sterling, and for Callie. He’d always known he didn’t deserve them. Now, he just needs to find a bit of courage to make his final choice.
Sterling hurt those most precious to him, just like he always had and always would. As his withdrawal symptoms twist both body and mind, he chooses to protect his loved ones.
Callie spent a lifetime sacrificing herself for the sake of others, trying desperately to be the person she needed. But when her attempts to help only make things worse, can she choose to let them go?
Choices: Winter is the final fic in my Choices series, interweaving characters, lore, and storylines from the original game and a multitude of mods including Stardew Valley Expanded, Ridgeside Village, and East Scarp. Expect a goodly amount of angst, but also expect comfort, camaraderie, fluff, adventure, humor, and yes, romance too.
This fic (and all of Choices) is now complete.

Summary
The doors of Sanctuary remain open to any and all comers, regardless of who they are or what they do in the outside world. Within, a woman known only as Doc offers healing to the dregs of society, the ones the rest of the world deems unworthy, all for the sake of a vow: "First, do no harm." But when the men she heals time and again constantly rain death upon the world, can she truly say she's keeping her oath?
Set in the world of Hell Finds You Everywhere, Do No Harm covers Shane's and Sterling's first five years in Zuzu City, and how their lives intersect with Doc time and again.
Fic is already written in its entirety and updates on Mondays.
