That Thing From The Woods - Shane x Deer-man Reader

Shane feels stuck in his life; like he can't and doesn't deserve better. During one shitty night, after downing one too many beers, he sees something. Or at least swears he does.

But at least he gets a "cool" boyfriend and best friend out of it?

I don't own Stardew Valley or it's characters, just my interpretations / own writing.

The Deer-man doesn't really do much, it's very Shane centric. Deer-man is legit somewhat of a crypid that hardly speaks english, or whatever.

The farmer is a different person with an unspecified name, that uses she/her pronouns. Platonic relationship with Shane!

(I didn't realize it wasn't 'confirmed' that Shane was the brother of Jas' mother, before she passed away. I remember learning it at some point from somewhere... Whoops. Though I think he's still her uncle in some capacity.)

The translating process (Dwarvish to English) is still buggy, but there's no parts where needed information written in this fan-fiction is only said in Dwarvish.
