jan event.
summer has arrived
As the last of the sakura blossoms fall away and the leaves on the trees grow into ever more vibrant greens, the familiar buzz of cicadas begins to echo all throughout the isle. Summer is quickly approaching and bringing brighter days and blazing temperatures along with it.
Summer also signals the start of the wine production season. Grapes growing on trellises are a common sight on Crescentview during the summer and a notice on the town memo board from the local barkeep encourages farmers to consider growing some varietal grapes of their own.
Temperatures are rising, so put on a comfortable pair of shorts and head to the Town Plaza to see what’s cooking! While you’re at it, take a look at the calendar for Summer 1st through 15th.
This season’s crops are corn, onion, pumpkin, watermelon, and pineapple. Summer’s seasonal flowers are poppy, rose, sunflower, lily, and hydrangea. As for mushrooms, shimeji, trumpet, and common brown spores are available for the summer.
hot! ...or not
Posted prominently at the top of the Memo Board is a cartoonishly-written advertisement for the first annual Hot or Not hosted by the Goddess herself. Contestants will take to the stage while the audience votes on whether they are as hot as the blazing sun or cooler than a dead fish. Leave your egos at the door! ICly, this event takes place on Summer 8th.
task board
The task board is located in Town Square and changes from season to season. In real time, a season is one month long. The following tasks are available from January 1st to February 1st and more tasks may be added mid-month.
Certain rewards are only available through event participation, so please keep this in mind when planning your threads. Multiple tasks may be completed within a single thread, but when turning in, please link to the individual tags in which each task was completed.
Finally, rewards are per character, not per farm, so those with housemates may want to coordinate with one another with regard to what animals you’re bringing home to your farm.
This month’s tasks are centered around getting to know your fellow neighbors on a deeper level. As such, the Goddess has put together a small human scavenger hunt to encourage people to learn more about the people they are living with — and hopefully falling in love with.
Find someone who...
1. Was born in the summer
2. Pours milk into their bowl before the cereal
3. Plays a musical instrument
4. Has more than 3 siblings
5. Works out 5 times a week or more
6. Doesn’t like animals
7. Would like to date the Harvest Goddess
8. Has traveled around the world
9. Speaks two or more languages
10. Is wearing socks that aren’t black or white
Each submission will earn you two random bags of summer seeds. Specify whether you want crop, flower, or mushroom spores in your submission. This task can be completed a total of 10 times.
Many ingredients used in wine production grow in the summer, but so do a variety of tea plants and grains. Grapes, tea shrubs and grains like wheat and barley can all be grown on your farm or in your greenhouse, if you have one.
Complete the following tasks to earn yourself some nice beverage-producing crops for the farm:
1. Take something from last month’s harvest and gift it to a neighbor. You can give it to them directly, cook it into a meal, etc. Alternatively, craft them a bouquet, flower crown, or another gift from the flowers you grew last season. Complete 3 times for a total of 6 grape starters.
2. Share a piece of hot gossip with a neighbor or exchange secrets with them. It doesn’t have to be your secret! Complete 3 times for a total of 6 tea starters.
3. Exercise with someone. Go on a run, swim in the ocean, help them stretch out! Complete 3 times for a total of 6 grain crops. You may choose from wheat, barley, rye, or rice.
Summer is the perfect time to hang out on the beach and splash around in the ocean. Participate in some summer fun at the beach and earn more animals for your barn and coop.
1. Swim in the ocean, build a sandcastle, or bury someone in the sand. Do any of the following for one of the following animals: cow, sheep, alpaca, or goat. This task can be completed once.
2. Participate in Hot or Not. It’s an annual tradition! Submit yourself or comment on someone else for a single chicken or rabbit. This task can be completed once.
local happenings
The Crescentview Times newspaper has chronicled the latest happenings around the island. A physical copy of the paper will arrive on your doorstep early in the morning on Summer 1st.
Recently, a group of townspeople have taken it upon themselves to check out the abandoned mine. They’ve made good headway on opening up the path in the hopes that would-be explorers will be able to take to the mines and find some of Crescentview’s fabled gems and minerals buried in its depths. They expect to be done by Summer 15th.
A strange “gurgling whisper” has been reported by some concerned townsfolk living in the mountains. The concerning sounds are coming from one of the lakes at the foot of the mountain. Supposedly, the voice is asking for offerings of... something. The townsfolk have yet to identify what exactly is being asked for.
A hurricane has been brewing off the southern coast of Crescentview. Meteorologists have yet to determine whether the hurricane will make landfall or not, so stay tuned for more updates.

Not when Adelis whinges at him, his mouth so close. Adelis clearly likes it, from the subtle jolting of his body. He wonders how much he can tease him before Adelis gets too testy. )
But you don't dislike it, do you? Or are you just impatient to take me in?
( No longer masquerading as simple preparation, he doesn't see the need to play so nice. His arm slips from around Adelis, brushing lightly, gratuitously, along his neck to feel how he'd made his neck tender from the fierce grip of his strangling. Knowing how he's harmed the skin there sends a shiver that runs down his spine, and he feels it gathering wet at his tip.
His hand settles there on the chin, thumb pressed against his sweet lower lip in that warm space between them fingers curling along his jaw. He can feel how hard Adelis is against him, and, selfishly, he keeps teasing him with his fingers, spreading him just a little wider deep in. )
If you're honest with what you want, I'll take you now. Unless, perhaps, this is preferable, confident as you are that my performance will be lackluster?
no subject
Who the hell was impatient to begin with-
[ Who started it, with the first press of his lips and nip of his teeth, and the wrap of his hands around his throat...the throat that Mishka's fingers now brush again, sore from the harsh grip that will no doubt leave his neck a mess of mottled bruises. Something wet smears on his stomach, the white fabric of his shirt pushed up from where he's pressed against the taller man, and he will not admit how he feels the same.
Two is much, but three is a lot- especially when they pull and stretch, grinding against that spot inside him that curls his own grip tight against the other's throat and paints his cheeks aflush. The soft press of a thumb to his lip, in the barely-there spare between them, sparks alight the heat under his skin.
He savagely bites down, feeling the tip of an incisor pierce the soft pad of the finger in question. A warning, or perhaps venting his irritation, his impatience, breath hot and quick as he resists the urge to squirm against the rubbing of his walls. ]
Insufferable git- [ Adelis releases the finger, if only to speak, one of the hands leaving to curl back in Mishka's hair and dig nails tight to his scalp as he drags his face close enough. He is not submitting, no, nor is he begging- he is demanding. ] If you are not going to fuck me, then what good are you?
no subject
The bite he expects, and only curls his lips into a broader grin. Adelis wouldn't be Adelis if he didn't bark and snap and argue— but what does draw sharp breath from him is how Adelis pulls his head, nails sharp against the scalp, and a crisp heat curls in his stomach, leaving his breath just a little warmer.
He supposes he has his answer, hm? Mishka is running up against the limit of Adelis's patience. Good. )
Watch your tongue.
( He says this without irritation, digging his fingers into Adelis's mouth, pressing flat the tongue and high the skull, as he leans in to lick his tongue, his teeth— predatory, affectionate, and hungry. )
I'll eat you whole.
( Adelis already spread wide deeper in, he slides the fingers out until he's spreading the entrance just enough, his hips rolling to shift his cock from beneath him and let it grind against him.
He pulls out a finger so he can better press the tip against his entrance, and gradually into it, and for a moment it seems he promises an easing-in, but, as the last finger slips from Adelis and takes to his waist on either side, he fucks up into him with particular force, and forces Adelis down onto him.
He kissing him deeply, as if to muffle protest, and pushing back as his tongue forces itself into Adelis's mouth and he begins to move him on his cock, and shifting their positions in reverse— Adelis against the bed of the couch, and Mishka fucking him on top. It's rough, callous, and completely overwhelming— and even more relentless is how he's certain to hit Adelis's sweet spot with every lap, quite preoccupied with finding the particular position that might best make him a mess. )
no subject
Adelis does not have time to spit a retort with the fingers wrenching into his mouth, the glide of the other's tongue across his own, across the enamel of his teeth. Disgusting, is what he would hiss could he do so without the spill of saliva down his chin, but he merely presses himself closer in a desperate hungry move of his own. Soaking up the heat from somebody who does not struggle to keep it.
Eat him, then. If he can.
The press of the other's tip against him, in him, has a sharp breath leaving him- there has been an ache inside him the fingers left him with, even if he will not admit it. Still, the tense of his muscles and expectation do nothing to prepare him fully for the next few seconds- and he feels the air nearly punched out of his lungs from the force of both the other's hips slamming up to meet the force of his own down.
The noise that slips through his lips is choked, but it's swallowed quick by the press of Mishka's lips to his own, muffled by the squirm of the tongue in his mouth. He bites down on it, as his hips shift up the other's cock, and there's little time to adjust before he's pushed back against the seat of the couch.
His glasses shift, askew on his face as he's pressed down further, further- and with the arch of his hips in the other's grip, all his fingers can do is tighten like mad with every callous, brutal thrust against his tight insides. Adelis' breath catches in his throat, nails raking harsh, jagged lines down the pale of Mishka's neck. He is not so easily torn down, shattering to shards in other's hands- but he cannot deny the relentless pace that slams into that part of him with every stroke, vision sparking hard as his fingers twist in Mishka's hair to pull him back. ]
Son of a bitch— [ His voice wavers, but he manages to barb his tongue, even as the flush crawls down his face and the length of his neck, lifting his shaky legs to coil them tight around the taller man's waist. ] Harder.
[ As if this is not hard enough, the slam of the other up to the hilt in him making his whole body tremble. Mishka is far bigger than he is, full length pressing so deep inside of him, and he needs more. Out of self satisfaction, out of drunken need, out of whatever feeling burns hot in the pit of his stomach. ]
