Summer 23, Year 1

Bad news; The house renovation wasn't ready until early this morning, so Beep won't be able to relax until tonight.

Good news; After helping Evelyn with the flower beds, a nice long bath to clean up will feel AMAZING. Which means squeaky Beepy tonight for his first night in the fixed up house.

Bad news; Haley was walking by and, unprompted; "Ew, you're all dirty" with her usual bitchy attitude which already repelled the local deer.

Good news; Evelyn wasn't taking shit from anyone.

After straining her wrist baking last night, and everyone else busy (especially with the Tuesday exercise class), Evelyn was thankful for the assistance. The deer offered help with a snort and a repeated head bob at the watering can she was struggling to lift. (Though it was hard to tell at first if the bobbing was positive or negative with his full rack of crystalline antlers.) Thankfully it was made clearer when Beep laid down next to the can, waiting for Evelyn to set it on his back. It took a second can after the first one spilled for Beep to realise he should use his wings to stabilise the weight on his back. With him leaning to tilt the can, and Evelyn guiding the watering can nozzle, they got most of the flowers watered. There was a slippery patch and the deer fell down in the mud patch from the first spill, but Beep remained unharmed. Thankfully there was only a few more flowers left, so Beep was able to water the last few on his own while Evelyn scolded Haley for her rude comment.

Haley is a bitch. Also I had several people across the places I post these say they thought the deer had been using a watering can this whole time, and then questions of how a deer would use said watering can. I explained multiple times; carrying a metal container, heavy with water, against teeth sounds HORRIBLE.

Things different from canon; (AU???)
Gramps never had an heir, or they never show/ed up.
Special new farm map; Frontier Farm!
Stardew Valley Expanded; new maps, new NPCs, new events, a LOT of new stuff.
The new “Farmer” is just a Weird Ass Deer. NPCs will respond/react accordingly.

This is my first time playing Stardew Valley Expanded, so I’m learning as I go. (Please no spoilers if you play SVE)
