angsty Camp camp dadvid fic (rewritten)
cover art is by me 

big tw for:
self harm
possible ednos but v vague
suicidal ideation
parental neglect
implied/referenced abuse
alcohol if that needs a tw?

If you or someone you know is struggling with self harm, please reach out for help
this is mainly surrounding sh because that is one of my biggest struggles over the past few years, but this is not meant to romanticize sh in any way - sh is a bad thing to do, but that doesnt make the people who do it bad people, and writing things like this has been one of my biggest coping methods over the years
I also like to include little tips of harm reduction in my writing because if someone is determined to sh or not ready to get better, they are going to keep doing it no matter what anyone else does, so the least I can do is at least try to encourage them to be as safe as they can when doing so <3

Lean On Me | Shane X OC | Stardew Valley by angels_cornerz
24 parts Complete Mature
The blood had already leaked down my forehead, but I kept my eyes on Shane and tried to blink quickly to clear my vision. "Hang on, please. Please hang on." He pleaded, holding my body up to a sitting position. I couldn't even remember what had struck me and I was getting nervous by Shane's worried face. "I'm... it hurts." I mumbled. "I'm so sorry." He held me closer. This time tears started to form in his dark green eyes but I could tell Shane didn't want to cry in front of me. My head started to feel more dizzy and I had to give in and close my eyes, much to Shane's dismay and his protests. I probably should've just listened to him from the start when he said don't go outside in this weather, but me being pissy with him and wanting to prove a point- I did and now I'm laying on the wet grass with a gash on my temple and an even bigger one on my leg. "We'll get you to Harvey." Shane said. I could hear his voice break at the end. He picked me up and started walking. "Please wake up." I wanted to so badly but I was exhausted from the hike and spending the night in the cold and shivering for hours. Shane's warm hands under my back and legs already felt way better. "This is all my fault. The one good thing to happen in my life...." Shane let out a sob but never stopped walking. I just wanted to hug him and tell him everything was going to be alright. I could feel the blood still tripping down my leg and face, so I knew I couldn't make false promises but Shane needed me. He needs me. I'm his anchor, I'm the girl he leans on when he's feeling like he's losing. I have to do this. I opened my eyes again. --CW-- Swearing Abuse Drinking NSFW Blood Painful backstories Book cover was done by me but I used a reference from stardewvalleycowboy because i've never drawn Shane before ^^.
