blue chickens
ok, so let me preface this with, i'm no chicken expert nor biologist, this is just something i find fascinating and i'm still a biology nerd just not employed for it lol
ok so first of all, lets lay out some facts, shane who for a majority of his time in stardew valley has been depressed and highly alcohol dependant, while working a dead end job in a soul crushing company, managed to breed chickens with not only an unusual colour but unusual physical traits, seen in functionally no other hens. that is both objectively impressive and kinda insane, but when broken down its much more impressive
firstly, creating a new breed of anything takes years and a lot of patience, on average it takes 5-7 generations to have chickens breed true (reproduce creating offspring with the same traits as them) without setbacks and on average one generation would take 6-7 months, which would mean roughly 4 years of work
on top of the time it would take, shane would have to have a very good grasp on genetics, to realize what combinations would produce whatever outcome he wants, and while he likely discovered a mutation in the colour pigment that he took advantage of, he'd still have to meticulously plan pairings and keep track of genetics and generations, trying to avoid major inbreeding while keeping the blue gene dominant in the gene pool.
but there's one thing off, true blue pigment is extremely rare in animals, with only one known species producing it, Obrina Olivewing butterfly. so how the hell could the chickens be blue?
its quite simple, Rayleigh scattering
(definition)
-Rayleigh scattering refers to the scattering of light off of the molecules of the air, and can be extended to scattering from particles up to about a tenth of the wavelength of the light. It is Rayleigh scattering off the molecules of the air which gives us the blue sky
its rayleigh scattering that also causes blue jays to be blue, seeing as the predominant pigment in their feathers is melanin making them truly brown/black in colour. ironically real world blue chickens aren't really blue, the blue genes are more of a dilution gene for black pigment
now i'm not knowledgeable enough to tell you how to make a blue chicken but my hypothesis would be a mutation/modification in feathers(possibly naturally iridescent feathers) that caused more blue to reflect, this mutation being bred through the lines, being crossed bac to produce more blue, till the chickens became solid blue.
on top of the strange color, these hens have also developed more rooster like tails, this being much simpler to explain, likely being a mutation causing increased feather growth akin to a rooster, within hens
this shows how much work and dedication shane put into his hens, and is one of the reasons he's my favourite characters, this man, who likely (to me atleast) has no science background, managed to create chickens defying what was believed to be the barrier of poultry colouration

GIVE ME SOME OF YOUR MORRIS HEADCANNONS I NEED THEM IN MY LIFEEEEE B]]]]]]]
HIIIII! TYSM FOR INQUIRING ON MY HCS! I'LL GLADLY FLING THEM AT YOU AT A VELOCITY IN WHICH NOBODY SHOULD BE PELTED BY WORDS :D (they're going to be neatly organized under the cut). I would've gotten to this sooner but life nerfed my ability to get to things within what I consider a reasonable time. I'm doing General HCs + a few dating HCs that have been sitting on my brain for a while. I'd like to note that a few of these are a bit on the angsty side? Nothing too bad, but yk yk.
Word Count: 707 words!
im sorry if this is long, I have NO idea what tends to be seen as an acceptable length for these kinds of things KAHAHAH. Regardless, I hope you enjoy them and tysm again for feeding into my brainrot. B)
・୨・┈┈┈┈・୨ ✦ ୧・┈┈┈┈・୧・
₊꒷︶ HCs Babey WOOHOOOO
˚⊹Morris is around 5'9, but he likes claiming he's around an inch or two taller. If you call him down on this bluff he gets visibly annoyed
-He's literally blind as a bat oh my god. You take this mans glasses away and you've taken away his ability to perceive the world as anything but splotches. If you were to take away his glasses he'd playfully pout then grab them whilst squinting in such an exaggerated fashion (but to him it isn't exaggerated at all. he's doing the best he can to see literally any part of you)
๑‧˚Morris is quite expressive, hyper-expressive even. He practically has an expression reserved for just about every situation you could think of. Its honestly impressive.
-Morris finds it hilarious to sneak up behind Pierre during random points and go "womp womp", and a variety of other similar, ill-fitting noises. To which he is chased off. It's one of the many tiny things he finds a surprising amount of pleasure in.
˚⊹ While Morris wasn't aware of the valley's existence as a child, I do imagine he was actually from a small town somewhere in Bavaria. That's right! I imagine Morris as Bavarian! If you catch him while he's still waking up, there's a chance he'll mutter something to you in Stardew's equivalent of Bavarian-German before snapping awake and correcting it to the English equivalent. He's bilingual, and he's fluent in both English and Bavarian-German.
-Morris has an accent, but he's able to try to limit it as much as possible in order to appeal more to the audience of Pelican Town.
ʚɞ There are aspects of the southern Pelican Town accent he's picked up on. He's like a sponge when it comes to mimicking accents, and as a result, he's also a sponge when it comes to inevitably picking up on the ways people say words differently in Pelican Town. At times, he's slipped up and said certain words in the Pelican Town way™. Yes, it's broken his customer service voice. Yes, he's sobbed over that.
"Over there sits our wonderful Joja Brand™ warsher n' dryer."
"..."
"Yes."
-Morris is ungodly out of touch. Some of the younger workers at his store have shared memes in their company group chat that they totally have because I willed it into existence and he's replied with either "????" or "haha (he's confused and doesn't get it)" You could trick this man into numerous deez nuts jokes if you felt particularly evil. I'm dead serious. It'd go something like this.
"Why, hello farmer! Are you visiting in hopes to talk about that Joja Membership? Or was there something else you were interested in bringing up?"
"Yeah, so I thought Soona worked here? Soona Orlada?"
"Soona Orlada? I haven't heard of t-"
"Soona or Later you're gonna see deez nu-"
"get OUT." He says, eyebrow twitching as he tries not to drop the customer service smile.
˚⊹He has self-confidence issues, regardless of how much bravado he likes showing to the residents of Pelican town and especially to Pierre. He often doubts his own abilities, and questions very often why things haven't turned in his favor despite how much effort he's put into his job and his work. He finds himself burnt out extremely often and ends up sitting at home sulking over another day stuck in a repetitive cycle with no change. Despite this, he knows the next day over he'll force a smile on his face and go about his life the exact same way he always has.
๑‧˚ For a long time, Morris was in heavy denial over just how bad the situation he was caught in was. He was in denial over just how strenuous his own job was, and was in denial over how overworked he was. Along with this, I imagine he was in denial over everything he had been doing wrong in his position. Having corporate constantly breathing down your neck over your specific district performing well clouds your judgement. At first, he'd shoot down any remarks about this. I imagine he reacts poorly to criticism from people he feels aren't adequate or in a position to be commenting on his performance, but he takes it into consideration regardless. After a few more confrontations, I imagine he takes steps to try and improve the working conditions of the little JojaMart he's under. It isn't until Post-Community Center that he actually realizes he's been treated poorly by Joja as well. He'd feel betrayed, but I imagine he'd feel lost and at a standstill on what to do next. Realistically, he'd probably continue to work for them for as long as he could unless a better opportunity reared its head.
-I like imagining Morris as a bit of a foodie. Dude absolutely knows the best restaurants in the Ferngill republic, and absolutely enjoys a good meal. Unfortunately, due to having such a demanding job, he hasn't been able to visit any of them in god knows how long. He's had to live on those incessant Joja Microwaveable Dinners for an unspeakable amount of time (he needs help). I reckon offering up home cooked meals to him is one of the fastest ways to his heart.
₊꒷In a relationship I imagine Morris to be kind of like a cat slowly warming up to his partner. He's been lonely for most of his life, and while he's touch starved, I don't think he'd be all that used to giving or receiving affection. In fact, I like imagining that for the first little bit while he's warming up to dating he gets all red faced over any gentle touch. Heaven forbid you kiss the guy while he's still getting used to things LMJKSDHKS. He's moreso one to give words of affirmation or gifts than gentle embraces during the first little bit of a relationship. Once he warms up, however, I imagine he gives ungodly nice cuddles and gentle kisses whenever he sees his S/O. Of course, that isn't to say he doesn't still prefer surprising his lover with little gifts here and there.
ʚɞ When Morris gets particularly embarrassed or flustered I imagine he likes to look away and push his glasses against his face, acting like he's unphased, or he hides his face with his arm or his hand. It's a huge habit of his and he's definitely done it unintentionally when the farmer shoots down something he says or one of his Joja-Related endeavors.
-Morris enjoys carefully planned, thought out home dates or picnic dates as opposed to anything extravagant. Sure, he adores a nice dinner at a fancy restaurant, but seeing his S/O put so much effort into making sure he has a good time... it absolutely warms his heart. Bonus if they plan some kind of stargazing date with all kinds of things to do beforehand. At first, the concept and appeal confuses him, but the fact that they found such joy in it... he starts enjoying it as well.
₊꒷Morris cries whenever he feels an excessive amount of just about any emotion. If someone were to get him a little overly happy he'd start tearing up then apologize. If he gets too comfortable with his S/O in bed he starts to tear up. No, he doesn't know why. No, don't feel bad. He's literally in heaven. Cloud nine, even. Similarly, I imagine him as one of those angry criers. He gets absolutely pissed off and you just see him start to tear up before screaming at someone then apologizing.
๑‧˚ He enjoys plushies. I'm not expanding on why I think this I just think he'd like a cute squishmallow. He wouldn't show his enjoyment openly but you know damn well he'd have it with him in bed every night. A little buddy, if you will. If he's caught with it he chucks that shit out of view then apologizes to it privately later.

Loving seeing everyone's posts on the Stardew update, all the new artwork and just more interaction in general, it's so nice to see the community come back to life! :)
Sadly, I won't be playing the update for a while as Lily's farm runs nearly 500 mods and would break so hard I think the sound of its destruction would be heard in the next solar system! I am keeping an eye on the many mods I use though and as soon as they're updated or suitable replacements appear I'll be enjoying 1.6 along with the rest of you!
I'm still playing my old version of SDV for now as I have over 1000 in-game hours invested in Moonlight Farm, have decorated the entire town and have even made my own custom dialogue mod for Sebby so he matches how I write him in my stories!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He's my baby boy, I love him so much! <3 I love Stardew so much! <3
Seriously, this game has brought so much joy into my life and I am so happy to see it get a fresh coat of paint and also to see so many people discovering or rediscovering their own love for it.
I wish you all lots of fun with the new content and I hope to join you very soon! :)

Stardew Valley Headcannons (List Format)
Shane had a security blanket as a very small child. He also had a difficult childhood, so he switched to a jacket around Kindergarten age and subconsciously has one to this day (y’all know the one lol)
Harvey had a family member, like an uncle, running the clinic before him, and he took over the practice fresh out of Med school.
Before the favoritism was obvious, there were a few good years where Sebastian and Maru had a great relationship, and they’d go stargazing pretty frequently. Sebastian is the older one, and it was his idea, and she absolutely fell in love with those stars, which lead to her golden child status.
Linus and Leah have a fairly good relationship compared to Linus and a lot of the others. They both Forage frequently, and share tips when they run into each other.
Willy never had kids, but had always wanted a son, so when Elliot moved in, he offered to teach him to fish, which he accepted pretty regularly. Elliot actually got better than Willy at setting up Crab Pots, mostly because Leah knows Linus’ wild bait recipe. Willy sees him as kind of the son he never had.
Sam and Alex definitely hang out occasionally. They used to be close when they were little, and they have an inside jokes regarding eggs.
Sam is on Shane’s list of people he doesn’t actively avoid (Jas, Marnie, Farmer, Emily, Penny, Gus, Sam, and sometimes Pam). As coworkers, they actually have built a weird almost Friendship.
On that note, when Shane sobers up, he starts actively hanging out with the trio. Sam and Him were already on okay terms, and he bonds with Abigail over JPK and eventually with Seb over that feeling of insignificance.
Emily texts like a 40+ woman, emojis and all. Haley tries to teach her how to not, but what Haley doesn’t know is that Emily does this on purpose, to annoy her.
Elliot did Slam Poetry contests in high school. He never won, much for the same reason I never did, the poems were so metaphorical that they bordered on nonsensical and confused the audience to hear aloud like that.
Evelyn was the town teacher before Penny, she taught for most of her life, but retired and passed it onto Penny the second she was old enough. Luckily Vincent was too little for school at the time, so she had awhile to prepare.
That’s it for now! Enjoy!

You know in sdv the farmer is really strong? Like, can pick up a whole person and don’t break a sweat?
I’m just thinking of the farmer’s spouse or Krobus going “hey something rolled under the fridge, can you get it please?” And farmer just picks up the whole fridge.
Spouse comes back home to the farmer trying to figure out where to put the queen sized bed by holding it and looking around the room.
Krobus walking into a room and the farmer is just putting down the giant fish tank that’s still full of fish.
Idk but I keep thinking about this so I have to post it

Amusement Park Dates with the Stardudes
A request from anonymous - amusement park favorite rides, type of park, transportation, snacks, how you get there and home, affection, etc. Assumes feminine Farmer. Thanks for the ask!
Sebastian - Haunted House
Any excuse to go to Zuzu. He knows the best place on the edge where you can see the City lit up at night. A bit of fun in the middle of the urban.
Loves all things spooky. And it's the perfect excuse to hold your hand, or pull you into a safe embrace if you scare easily. He's the kind of guy who encourages you to face your fears, but he will be there to comfort you and encourage you if it's too much.
Knows you face mini monsters in the mines so maybe you're just pretending as an excuse to get closer to him. He doesn't mind.
Usually not into PDA, but it's pretty dark in the haunted house. Finds your sudden jumps endearing, especially if you're clinging to his arm. The way your fingers tighten around his bicep.
Doesn't have the heart to tell you not to dig your nails into his flesh, even through his long sleeves. Winces and puts up with it.
Orders you a treat after exiting the experience, like a soothing cup of jasmine tea or stardrop sorbet. Anything really as long as it's not popcorn.
Loves the feel of your arms around his waist as you ride on his motorcycle at the end of the night. The way you lean your head into his back. It isn't until you reach the farmhouse that he realizes he was smiling during the whole ride. Leans you into his bike for a good night kiss.
Alex - Carnival Games
Not so much into the rides, but enjoys the Carnival Games. This man is competitive and enjoys showing off.
First stop is definitely test of strength. Grins and flexes his muscles for you before starting. Might pretend to injure himself just to watch your reaction, but would quickly reassure you that he's teasing. Enjoys when you playfully punch his shoulder in annoyance.
Throwing darts at balloons is fun. He's really good at it. Closes his eyes and throws a bullseye. Shows off and tosses over his shoulder.
Likes impressing you, but he enjoys your company regardless. He's a touchy feely guy, squeezing your hand, throwing his arm around your shoulder, giving you his letterman jacket when you get cold, whispering suggestive things in your ear to throw you off your game. Enjoying when you playfully poke his ribs as you tease him back.
Gets really into the squirt guns in the clown's mouth. Challenges you to a contest. Best two of of three. Loser buys dinner. Buys you dinner anyway if you lose.
Any prize he wins would be yours. Takes a special delight in presenting you with an oversized stuffed animal - maybe a junimo plushie. Loves to make you smile.
Fish and chips is his go-to. If you get tartar sauce on your face, he would kiss it off... with blushing pleasure.
Dares you to try the bungee jumping. You injure your ankle. Carries you out to the parking lot. Makes out like crazy with you in his truck. Maybe some heavy petting. Insists in staying the night to make sure your ankle is okay. Sleeps on the floor like a gentleman.
Elliott - Ferris Wheel
Changes his outfit ten times before showing up. He doesnt know how to do casual. What do you wear to a carnival? Still wears the ascot.
Picks you up at the farmhouse promptly. Brings you roses to start the evening.
Escorts you to the train arm-in-arm. Romanticizes older era transportation. Has an excited little grin on his face when the train horn toots. Talks about the steampunk romance he is trying to write.
Uses a napkin to dab the mustard on his face. He's so proper. He eats his corndog with a fork and knife. You giggle.
His favorite carnival ride is the Ferris Wheel. Doesn't mind that it is slower than the other rides. Gives you an opportunity to talk. It's the opener and ender to the evening. Likes to look dreamily at the views. Planned it perfectly so you reach the top right as the sun starts to set.
Bribes the worker for some extra time on the last ride. Leans in and asks 'May I?' before kissing you. His fragrant cologne hovers in the air long after your lips part. It's the most romantic kiss you have ever experienced. Makes you weak in the knees.
Shyly tells you he feels the same, the heat rising in his cheeks. You don't want to get off the ride and go again. You nearly miss the last train. He kisses your hands when you reach the farmhouse and bids you adieu after a lovely evening
Sam - a little of everything
He's such a kid at heart. Meets you at the bus stop. Talks a mile a minute about everything he wants to do when you arrive. Stops mid-sentence and asks what? You grin and kiss his cheek.
Rides the carousel with you for nostalgia. Points out his favorite pony. Insists on riding on the outside to do the ring toss. Misses every shot.
Bumper cars are loads of fun. Backing into you. Crashing into you. Colliding with your side. He still taps you even when you're done with the ride. You pretend not to notice, secretly enjoying it.
Yells like crazy about the new Splash ride. He wore his swim trunks just in case. Sits right in front and suggests you throw your arms around his waist if you get scared. Doesn't matter. You do it anyway. Holding Sam is like hugging a firecracker... any moment he could dart away, but for a brief few seconds, you feel the sparks. He feels them too.
You get soaked on the ride, of course, and he buys you a hot cocoa to help you warm up while you dry off. Whipped cream mustaches anyone? He will lick it off with glee and kiss you passionately before restraining himself.
Chatters about his favorite experiences of the evening during the ride back. Already planning a return trip to the carnival. Doesn't realize you've fallen asleep on his shoulder. Your presence is nice. Calming even. He tries not to disturb you until you arrive home.
Harvey - Alpine Coaster & Mini Golf
Picks you up in his beat-up Oldsmobile. You listen to jazz on the drive. Wears a bucket hat and sunglasses. Offers to lather you in sunscreen while his face turns red.
Can't be eating carnival food. Packs a healthy picnic lunch for you both. Apples, carrot sticks, avocado and Sprouts sandwiches. Even cuts off the crusts like he did as a child. And of course, pickles.
Has an itinerary for the afternoon. You laugh and tell him part of the fun is spontaneity. He's a bit embarrassed but he loosens up after you tell him you'll look at his agenda.
Would prefer a smaller amusement park, less crowds, fresh air in the mountains kind-of place. He takes you up to his favorite ski resort in the summer.
The Alpine coaster is his personal favorite. A bit of height, but not too much. Not too crazy. Can control the speed. No ridiculous upside down spins, but the curves are still thrilling. And the pull up the mountain is so peaceful.
Offers to play a round of mini golf with you. Insists on using the green club. The color is lucky for him. He's surprisingly good, shows you the proper stance, and is willing to fetch your golf ball when you accidentally hit it off course.
Kisses you on the forehead after saying goodnight on your porch. Kicks himself the whole way home that he didn't give you a proper kiss.
Shane - Thrill rides
Agrees to let you "drag him" to the carnival. You ride your bikes down to the boardwalk. Grunts an apology that he doesn't have a car. You really don't mind and tell him not to worry about it.
He's on a cleanse but he still likes the taste. Pretzels and beer cheese and a Big Gulp soda.
Anything to get the heart pumping. Upside down. Fast spinning. Sudden plunge. He likes it all.
Rides the Tilt-a-whirl a half dozen times. Says you look a little green after. He feels bad so he buys you a ginger ale for your stomach and sits on a park bench with his arm around you while you recover.
Enjoys your scream when you ride the drop tower together. It's the weirdest compliment you've ever received.
Only thing he likes in the arcade is besting the mechanical bull. Hangs on with a death grip.
Tries to shrug it off as no big deal for accompanying you to the amusement park. You cut him off mid sentence with a kiss. It's the only time you've ever seen him beaming.
Victor - roller coaster
Arranges for a private car to drive you to the amusement park. This boy has money.
Picks the park with the most roller coasters. The architect in him is fascinated with the engineering marvel.
A wooden coaster is his favorite. For a truly authentic feel. Nothing quite like it. A bit rougher than steel but it's a treat as few still exist.
Has a system to rate the coaster: 3 rides. 3 tests. Speed. Thrill. Challenge (in the design).
You'll grab lunch at a pier restaurant about midday. He made a reservation. Talks up facts about roller coaster history while waiting for food. He's so cute when he gets excited. He asks if he's rambling. You shake your head.
Shares that he once scribbled designs for his own coaster while bored in class. You encourage him to design a coaster. With him as the engineer, it is bound to be the safest and best roller coaster in the world. He can't help but kiss you.
Lance - Ren Fair
Loves the Renaissance Fair. An excuse to dress up in period attire, eat fried meat on a stick, and be a bit theatrical. A little like everyday Lance, but with more flair.
Wants to watch all the jousting matches. Explains the technical details and is impressed you already know some of the tricks.
Buys you jewelry. He loves to spoil and pamper you. Maybe a gown too with flowy sleeves to wear to the evening dance hall.
Horseback riding is a must. He enjoys helping you in and out of the saddle even though you are perfectly capable of mounting the steed yourself. He blushes at your 'that's what she said' quip.
Brings camping gear so you can stay the whole weekend. Doesn't mind roughing it every once in awhile. Wouldn't presume to share your space so brings a second tent. Still you sneak in to cuddle and accidentally fall asleep in his arms.
Calls you 'milady' the whole weekend and likes to hear you giggle. Bonus points if you call him 'good sir.'
Enters the sword fighting tournament. Wins first prize in honor of his 'lady.' What does he win besides a trophy? A kiss from his girlfriend.
Magnus - Funhouse
Meets you there. You wonder how he beat you since he left after you did but he's a Wizard and he won't reveal his secrets. Magic!
Since he sets up the Spirit's Eve maze every year, it's hard to impress the Wizard. But he enjoys the challenge of the funhouse.
The maze of mirrors is a bit like him... weird and quirky. But ultimately entertaining and enjoyable.
Promptly challenges anyone who dare jump out and grab his lady inappropriately. He could turn them into a toad. I wouldn't dare him.
Likes figuring out the physical and optical illusions in different themed rooms. Alice in Wonderland is his favorite. He has always enjoyed the Mad Hatter.
Doesn't like the clowns. Some memory from his days at the School of Illusions.
Picks up a pound of candy at the concessions - black licorice, sour slimes, rock candy... agrees to share cotton candy with you. As you both bite from opposite sides, he is happy when you meet in the middle for a soft kiss.
Hope you enjoyed! What other requests do you have?

shane pt 2
heres a few more headcanons/whatnot of our favorite depressed chicken man, let me know some of your's
if you married shane, he would without a doubt help you around the farm, even helping with crops, but the one part hed love the most is taking care of the coop/s, especially the chickens
with chickens in mind, this man has a dilemma anytime hes served chicken, cause he loves chickens but they also taste really damn good, the only reason he will eat it, is that he rationalized that chickens eat each other so its probably not a big deal if he eats them too lol
shane had hand raised charlie, from a newly hatched chick, which is why they're so close(also why she gets her own private coop on the farm lol), shes actually the mother of some of shanes firs-gen blue hens
and with that, can we admire how dedicated he is to his chickens, he managed to create an entirely new breed of chicken with a feather colour/tone considered impossible, in roughly half the time it normally takes to create a new breed chicken (may have to do a whole post about that)

How would Morris treat an autistic partner?
:OOO!! Hey there Anon! Thank you so much for asking! As someone autistic I've been waiting for the opportunity to write something like this! You've absolutely got the gears in my brain working.
Note - I'm going to be basing these primarily on mine and some friends experiences with Autism. These may not align with everyone, and that's alright.
Word count: 1,013 TWs/CWs: Small mention of gagging!
 ˖ ✵⭒Morris with an Autistic S/O
❅◞◟ ˖⋆ ✯ ⋆˖ ◞◟❅
For starters, this man would do absolutely amazingly with a neurodivergent partner. I'm partially saying this because I think he has a touch of neurodivergence himself, but also because he seems like he'd be willing to be accommodating once he's sat down and talked to about some of your issues. He'd be confused at first, but he'd realize the two of you have more of a common ground than he first assumed.
He'd do a significant bit of research once being told you're autistic. He doesn't want to seem ignorant, and he wants to better understand how to accommodate for your needs. Of course, he'd probably just ask you upfront since he understands everyone's different with different needs and whatnot.
For starters, he completely understand getting so interested in something it's all you talk about. He'd be more than willing to hear about your fixations and interests. In fact, he'd be the type of man to buy you things pertaining to some niche topic you brought up then be like "oh. I just happened to remember you liked this character! Consider it a lucky surprise?" He also enjoys casually bringing up things related to your interest and watching you go off about it.
If you're not a fan of large crowds, that's cool. He enjoys large gatherings, especially since they're good for business! But he can absolutely understand how easy it is to become burnt out by them. He can recall countless times at Joja Block Parties in which he had to step away due to the commotion. He'd be sure to keep track of short-cuts in busier parts of Zuzu City so that you don't have to deal with tons of people.
Loud noises absolutely overwhelm him, even if he doesn't want to admit it. It's a weak point of his. He much prefers the quieter things in life, and being somewhere too loud and boisterous can offset his thoughts, leaving him all disoriented and disgruntled. He completely understands having to walk away from somewhere due to it being too loud and will absolutely surprise you with noise cancelling headphones.
One thing I feel he'd have some difficulty getting used to is if you're clingy. I've mentioned this in a prior post, but he reminds me of a cat in terms of how he warms up to others. It'd take some time for him to get used to you wanting to be against him or wanting to cuddle him or anything like that. But once he's warmed up to your physical advances, he'd be more than happy to allow you to lounge against him while he does his work/while he reads. He'd also be more than happy to hold you against him while he does things, or carry you around if he's able to.
Once he's used to being physically affectionate with you, he'd be so down to laying on top of you if you like that sort of thing. Free weighted plush!
If you don't like affection? That's perfectly fine with him. He's more than capable of being affectionate in other ways, as his main love language pertains moreso toward gift-giving and quality time. Plus, it's hard for him to warm up to physical affection as well, he understands.
He is the world's loudest advocate for parallel play. He would love doing productive while you're doing something else and hearing your input/giving his own input on what you're doing. He finds it one of the nicest ways of bonding with you. Silent acknowledgement of one anothers presence...
He would 100000% understand not liking touching certain textures. Just looking at store-bought slime brings shivers up and down his spine and makes him break into a sweat. Hell, he couldn't even stock those towelettes Joja stocked back when he was a mere grunt due to how horrible they felt to him. He'd take careful note of what you do and don't like touching and then be sure to buy gifts and things that fall under positive textures for you only.
One thing I think would also confuse him would be food aversions. He's never experienced issues with any sort of food. He's had a few dislikes, but he isn't particularly picky. (Not to mention he's been desensitized by microwaveable joja meals) He doesn't quite understand the whole unable to eat something due to the texture thing, nor does he understand gagging due to the scent of something. But he'd try his best to accommodate to you. He'd start carrying your comfort foods in his home, and he'd try to eat food that set off your aversions away from you. That way, you both would be able to eat together and he'd still be able to eat what he wants.
He doesn't get stimming at first but he'll try his best to accommodate for your needs. Joja sells stim toys! Look at that cute clicky worm thing! He can get plenty! Once they end up breaking after barely any use, he buys ones from actually refutable brands. One benefit in you stimming is him realizing just how relaxing it is to sit down and do similar.
He can find himself getting a little easily irritated over things being said poorly, but once you explain to him that its hard for you to control your tone or the way you phrase things, he starts asking for clarification when he's confused.
He can be very passive aggressive or sarcastic toward others. But toward you, he'll keep himself and his mouth in check. Especially if you don't pick up on either well.
Schedule changes do not happen with this man. You never have to worry about being put off track unless it's something out of his hands. He is always on time, no sooner, no later. This man adores daily routines too, and knowing you like predictability leaves him the ability to continue following his usual routine without much issue. If and when he can't stick to the usual, however, he tries to give a heads up.
If and when you go mute, he entirely understands and tries not to force you to talk. Though, I imagine the first time it happened he was absolutely startled. He was worried he did something and that he was being given silent treatment. Or that something had happened to you. Once you explained it to him later, however, he understood. If you're able to, he often hands you a board to write with. If you're not able to, he just sits with you and does whatever you want to, or just does his work and lets you lean against him.
If he notices you're overwhelmed he does everything he can to take you out of the situation, even if you end up dejected over the fact he left for the sake of you. If the two of you are at a company wide party and you start to get noticeably burnt out he'll find an excuse to leave. If you two are at a restaurant or something and you're starting to get more jittery he'll ask if you'd like to make your meals take out and head out. If ever you voice you're worried you're ruining your outings together due to this, he'll cup your face with his hand (if you like physical touch) and reassure you otherwise.
He loves you to bits ultimately, and he wants the absolute best for you. He'd probably check in constantly to make sure you're alright.

Sometimes I think about Pierre crying in his room because he knows Abby isn’t his but when Abby or Caroline asks him why he was crying he has to say it’s about sales or something involving Joja
