Summary
The farmer is dead.
It’s been one single, measly year in Pelican Town, and the farmer is dead. A freak accident, changing the course of every life in town, but none more than those of her three best friends.
Because for some stupid reason, she left the farm to those three best friends, rather than handing it over to the bank or letting Lewis make the call. And, for some stupider reason, Abigail, Sebastian, and Sam agreed to it. Nevermind that they're all swimming in oceans of grief which feel bottomless. Nevermind that Sam and Sebastian are the biggest will they won't they that Pelican Town has ever seen. Nevermind that out of the three of them, exactly none of them know the first thing about running a farm.
But, after all, it's just gardening. How hard could it be?

Summary
New home. New life. new responsibilities.
Having received an opportunity to start over, Eira was more than eager to embrace it. Her grandfather’s old farm and weathered cottage might need a few repairs here and there, yet she finally felt like she was shaping her own future—an adventure that was much more thrilling than daunting. This new beginning carried a shining hope, and she believed in it wholeheartedly.
Robin, the carpenter, had generously lowered her prices to help Eira get settled—a kindness she would never forget, and one she promised to repay someday.
But when the new farmer’s bright, cheerful energy collided with her younger brother’s shadowed past, Robin realized that Eira had far more to offer than meets the eye...

Summary
"About a month ago Alex caught himself looking at Sam differently. And not in a weird way. No, no, of course it wasn’t like that. It couldn’t be like that. It was more so… admiration. Alex could appreciate anyone that tried as hard as Sam did. And it wasn’t that he was a show off, that would’ve pissed him off. Sam was simply the kind of guy that wanted to do his best and pushed himself until he achieved that goal."
OR
Alex has gay thoughts and doesn't wanna call it that.
ADDITIONALLY
SamAlex has a work count in the negatives (/hj) and Benji wanted to fill the void.

His heart aches for the fleeting happiness of his past, and to forge a new future for himself— with any luck, a future that includes Alex by his side.

Summary
Four cousins. One broken-down farm. A valley full of secrets.
When their grandfather’s final wish calls them to the sleepy town of Pelican Valley, the Hobbs cousins—quiet and steady James, sharp-tongued Jenna, sarcastic Ashley, and sweet, anxious Harper—arrive with nothing but duffle bags and doubt. The farm is a mess, the house is falling apart, and none of them know the first thing about running a homestead.
But Stardew Valley has a strange kind of magic.
As the seasons pass, each cousin begins to carve their own path:
James finds purpose in the soil, becoming the farm’s quiet backbone.
Jenna, used to the city and luxury, unexpectedly discovers her creative spirit in the most unlikely places.
Ash dives headfirst into fixing the farm—until a run-in with a beautiful, sharp-tongued blonde derails her focus.
And Harper, the shyest of them all, finds courage in books, in friendship… and maybe even in a certain poetic stranger by the sea.
Friendships bloom, rivalries spark, and love grows in unexpected soil. The valley offers new beginnings—but only if they're brave enough to take root.

Summary
‘Where’s my wand?’ he mutters into his knees.
Jameson glances at one of the Aurors who edges his way closer.
‘The Ministry seized it when you—’
‘I want my wand,’ he says, and he sounds…tiny. Like a little boy.
‘Look lad, once you’re in the shelter, you can see about getting your wand back,’ the Auror closest to his side says, the badge at his hip glinting.
‘I can’t go there,’ Malfoy says into his knees. ‘Please. Please don’t make me go there.’ I realise he’s crying. That he’s hiding his face to stop them from seeing. That this is the first time I’ve ever heard him say the word please. That he’s scared. That Draco Malfoy is asking for help.
Something shatters inside me and—
‘He can stay with me.’

Summary
“I said I’d get you there so I’m getting you there,” he growled. “I’m not letting some silly doll make me a liar.”
He stalked off toward the fresher, but you followed.
“Doll?” You demanded, raising your voice. “That’s what you think I am?”
“Yes,” he said, turning back to face you, towels clenched in his fist. “A doll, some decorative, useless thing to sit there in pretty dresses and take up space. A doll.”***
You have a knack for finding trouble, be it in the midst of Galactic Civil War or when trying to live the quiet life after getting out of the game. So when you're stuck fleeing your new home planet after pissing off the wrong people - again - there's only one person willing to take you: the Mandalorian.
But after years of fighting faceless men, you're not the trusting type toward someone always wearing a helmet and the Mandalorian quickly suspects there's more to you than he knows.
*This is seriously a very slow burn, very plot-heavy fic!
