CAN WE PLEASE GET A FLOWER CROWN SHANE TO GO WITH THE FLOWER CROWN RYAN ????????
Absolutely!<3
I have a cross stitch portrait of Shane sitting on my desk, so I'm constantly looking at my husband :3
I love my depressed chicken man sm
Also heres the shitty lil pattern I made in case anyone wants it :)
Here's some headcanon stuff before i get to the depressing shit
Leon is 5'5", and Shane is 5'6" (funnily enough, leon was made to be short because i wanted him to be slightly shorter than shane, and i've always headcanoned shane as 5'6")
Neither one can cook. Leon has literally burnt down his kitchen before.
Leon is 27, and Shane is 34
Leon is horrible with kids, but Shane is surprisingly good with them (it's cause he tries to be a good uncle to jas)
Leon doesn't understand a thing about gridball, but it's fine cause shane loves to ramble and explain it.
Shane is transmasc, and uses he/they pronouns.
Leon uses he/him pronouns.
Shane wears exclusively crocs, even at work. It drives leon insane (he despises crocs).
Leon and Shane are both slobs, and it drives Leon's bodyguard Phillip (who also lives with them) fucking nuts. (phil is a part of their relationship, but i want to focus on leon and shane's dynamic here. i'll eventually make a post about a phil x shane dynamic)
Leon is somehow still a certified accountant (even after getting fired from his last job for accused fraud. he was set up tho), and handles the finances for the farm, and deals with tax stuff. He often rambles about accountant stuff to Shane, who doesn't understand a lick of it.
Leon is allergic to cats, but they still keep a cat around the farm.
Leon's full name is Leonard Valentine Locke. DO NOT call him Leonard, he despises his full name.
^ This is leon :3
^ this is his sdv sprite i made :3 (pixel art is a pain in the ass in procreate btw T_T)
ok sad shit below this, read at your own risk.
So shane has always been a big influence on my oc, Leon (it was mostly subconscious, I didn't realize Leon was so similar to Shane until a couple of months ago)
They're both suicidally depressed and alcoholics, and both struggle with their sense of self-worth.
I believe that Shane drinks because he lost two close friends who meant a lot to him (Jas' parents), and didn't know how to deal with the grief. He'd already had a bit of an issue with alcohol before, but nothing like it would become.
Leon drinks because he had a shit childhood and a shit life. He hates himself, and struggles with major depression. He's on antidepressants, and meds for bipolar 2, which react poorly with the alcohol, worsening his symptoms, and making him heavily suicidal. He always had a problem with alcohol, but it became significantly worse when he shot and killed his father. While it was self-defense, his now boss, Zalu Merriweather, used it against him to get Leon to work for them. That sent Leon into a downward spiral, and he ended up nearly dying multiple times.
He ended up in Stardew Valley with his bodyguard, Phillip, because of some lore thing idk. what happens in stardew valley isn't canon to my story, so i haven't put too much though as to why Leon ends up there lmao
But Leon finds shane, and they are two drunk peas in a pod. They get along well, (perhaps too well), and are both worsening the other's alcoholism, since Shane now has a drinking buddy, and leon thinks shane's hot af, but leon prefers to be drunk when he sleeps with someone.
Then shane's six-heart event rolls around, and leon doesn't want to shane to end up like him. Shane decides he's going to get his shit together.
Leon doesn't get sober yet, tho. He's still drinking and struggling, but with Shane now being sober, he doesn't want to be a bad influence.
Eventually, shane and phil are able to help leon give up alcohol.
Leon gives it up entirely, but Shane is able to have a few beers every now and then.
Leon gains weight after quitting alcohol, and it really fucks with him. He had an ED when he was younger, and has bad body dysmorphia. Seeing his body become "ugly" by his standards almost makes Leon relapse, but he works through it.
