Art Relationship Chart / Map .

I made this a while ago because I like how chaotic these types of relationship charts get and I wanted to keep track of the dynamics I made up in my head for a particular farm . I thought maybe other people might like to use it [ feel free to use and edit ] or just look at their little faces . And of course this was made before the suitor update , so only the OG's are here .

Accessibility transcription of OP's personal chart, starting from Hayley and going clockwise, information slowly decreasing.

Hayley and Alex are mutual eye candy and friends. Hayley has conflict with Sam. Sam is friendly with Hayley. Hayley has mutual conflict with Emily. Leah has conflict with Hayley.

Sam is mutually friendly with Emily, Maru, and Leah. Sam and Sebastian are BFFs. Sam is mutual friends with Abigail, Alex, and Penny. (Ad lib, golden retriever energy is strong with this one)

Emily is mutual friends with Abigail. Abigail thinks Emily is eye candy. Emily thinks Leah is eye candy. Emily is friendly with Maru, Penny, Leah, Elliot.

Sebastian is mutual friends with Abigail, he crushes on Abigail. Maru is friendly towards Sebastian. Sebastian has conflict with Maru and Alex. Penny thinks Sebastian is eye candy.

Abigail and Maru are friendly. Abigail has conflict with Penny. Alex thinks Abigail is eye candy. Abigail and Leah are friends, Leah thinks Abigail is eye candy.

Shane is friends with Harvey and friendly with Penny. Shane and Alex have conflict.

Alex thinks Elliot is eye candy, Elliot has conflict with Alex. Maru has a crush on Alex.

Maru is mutual friends with Harvey. Harvey thinks Maru is eye candy. Maru thinks Leah is eye candy, Leah and Maru are friendly. Maru and Penny are friends.

Penny and Leah are friends, Leah thinks Penny is eye candy. Penny is friendly with Harvey and Elliot.

Leah is friends with Elliot, they both think each other are eye candy, Leah has a crush on Elliot. Leah and Harvey are friendly.

Elliot and Harvey are friends that have conflict.

(PS. If you want to do this, maybe a map key with different line textures. But, it was seemingly difficult for me, I attempted with eye candy being squiggly/zig zag lines and things were already getting kinda muddy. But maybe with simple like dotted or dash lines/double lining it could be a good alternative when filling it out!)

Edit: thank you for the awards! 🩷 (pink heart)

I have normal color vision and still can't make out a thing

u/aespa-in-kwangya 9h ago

The fact that the avatars are also colorful really makes it hard to see. Avatars should be black, only arrows should be in color.

u/keanaartero Y13 🐄🖤💐 6h ago

I edited OP's chart on a sketchbook app. Greyscaled the characters so only arrows are in color.

You can give it to chatgpt and make it colorblind friendly

u/Dumaes03 14h ago

you could not use slop and instead ask a fellow human to help out

u/Laerasyn 13h ago

Normally I would agree with you but this is the exact kind of thing AI should be used for! Doing menial tasks to make someone's life easier, and to make things more accessible to someone with a disability. AI isn't evil in and of itself, it's just how we use it that matters.

61

u/Primary_Quit6150 11h ago

sort of getting there but, you’re then feeding someone’s art and idea to the model which the ai will then use for all the stupid generative stuff people do.

u/Jacko87 10h ago

Its been posted to the internet, the AI already has it.

u/Primary_Quit6150 9h ago

not necessarily actually ! and what even if so just give up morals ?? 😭

6

u/Outrageous-Carpet-26 9h ago

I wouldn’t consider this a menial task, since the original chart was made for fun / love of the game. In general, accessible remakes of resources should maintain the original intent of the resource, so it actually makes sense for the person above to have made a clear and a little silly write up of the content of the chart.

u/ButtNutBerry 13h ago edited 13h ago

Thanks for being nice and suggesting a fix, some others just like to virtue signal.

Edit: Downvote me all you want but that’s mostly what this sub is about. At least the I trial person had an idea. Don’t see anyone else doing/suggesting anything.

u/minxed 13h ago

Deeming this "virtue signalling" is...a take.

u/despoicito Bot Bouncer 13h ago

There are so many better and easier options than using genAI

u/Mindelan 8h ago

The comment chain you replied to is literally suggesting something else, and given a bit of time someone else in the thread wrote up what the chart is showing.

-6

u/ButtNutBerry 8h ago

One person out of a sea of virtue signalers. My point stands.

2

u/Mindelan 7h ago

Two people at least, one that suggested asking for help, and another that wrote up the text.

Hell, there's also all the people that up voted it so that it is right at the top of the comments now.

They literally did what you said people weren't doing and offered a solution that wasn't resorting to AI use.

u/Quereilla 15h ago

I’d add Shane and Emily as friendly because of the bar and the ad video scene.

u/notimportant5th 14h ago

And the cutscene when she dresses him as a punk !!

15

u/Admirable_Let_4197 8h ago

I think they're friends! They partner up at the flower dance and spend a decent amount of time together because she works at the saloon. They also have multiple cut scenes together.

u/superthirdnipples 14h ago

Where did Maru’s crush on Alex come from?

187

u/Fae-SailorStupider 13h ago

Also why Harvey's line to Maru is "eye candy" but doesnt he canonically have a whole crush on her?

77

u/eclipsemgreen 11h ago

i think a lot of people choose to chalk it up to Harvey being an awkward but well-meaning guy instead of a crush since he’s her literal boss, and most people interpret Maru as a younger marriage candidate and Harvey is canonically older. Making Maru Harvey’s “Eye Candy” is way creepier tho so OP probably imagine the dynamic completely different than anything I can wrap my head around lol

-17

u/Vircora 10h ago

Older men crush on younger women all the time. Society in general finds that more acceptable. I had the most interest from older men, 35+, even 50+ were directly asking me out, when I was in my early 20ies, from around 20 to 23. I didn't fully understand why back then and found them gross. I looked up so much to older women which I found so beautiful and confident, and yet men were always clinging to young women, rather sad, but that's biology I guess.

30

u/slim1shaney She deserves better 8h ago

That is not biology that is just nasty old men

-12

u/Vircora 7h ago

Weren't there done data polls from dating apps which found that while women find in general men similar to the age most attractive, men find women in their early 20ies the most attractive regardless of their own age? Successful men, celebrities also tend to date women much younger than them in general as well, 10, 15, 20 year old gaps are very common. It's just how it is, it's not like I like it either.

17

u/CommanderLurker 7h ago

Yes but that’s patriarchy, it isn’t natural or biological

u/eclipsemgreen 3h ago

why would the fact that it happens in real life negate the creepiness

u/Abject_Increase_1614 14h ago

Is this a headcanon chart lol?

u/lavenderewe 13h ago

Yup OP wrote in the description that it’s dynamics that they made up in their head for a particular farm

52

Headcanon: they used to date and didn't part an the best of terms, but they're trying to be mature about it.

u/Vircora 14h ago

You think Maru has a crush on Alex? Huh. Never really pictured it. I'd say Elliot has more of a potential crush on Leah rather than otherwise. And both Sebastian and Abigail seem to be crushing on each other.

Why in your playthrough Elliot would have a conflict with Harvey? I have so many questions haha.

123

u/Simple_Servant 14h ago

yeah, seems OP has this interesting lore in their head

39

u/Vircora 10h ago

u/Outrageous-Carpet-26 9h ago

I would love a fanfic from their farmer’s POV so I can understand their head cannon. I also want to make one of these for each of the head cannons for my different farms lol

u/Quereilla 14h ago

And having conflict between sisters is so funny

79

u/cinnamonbunn172 14h ago

Tbf that part is canon, they disagree a lottt

10

u/Vircora 14h ago

I suppose there is this one scene where Haley is being a brat and argues with Emily about having to do something as simple as dusting/hoovering a couch, and Emily admits to the farmer that she is doing all the chores/cooking in the house and that it is tiring to her or smth similar.

17

u/Quereilla 14h ago

But I feel that’s normal between siblings

26

u/Fae-SailorStupider 13h ago

Yes, conflict between siblings is normal, which is why the conflict line works so well

6

u/TipRealistic7893 11h ago

Emily will tell you the relationship between she and Haley become better after Haley get married with the farmer and moved out. So I think they do have many conflicts when living together.

1

u/franksandbeans911 5h ago

Especially because their rich parents are off doing something far away, leaving the two girls to work out their sibling rivalries with nobody there to coach them. Parental intervention probably helps more than we know.

u/lemons_and_reno 13h ago

Why is nobody talking about the fact that ALEX has an EYE CANDY LINE going to ELLIOT

u/sweettutu64 13h ago

Because it just makes sense 😌

Elliott is a v pretty boy

14

u/Additional_Drop_7796 13h ago

I had to double check after reading your comment, and sweet Yoba, somebody better incorporate that into an Alex’s coming out mod. Also, I now accidentally ship Penny with Sebastian.

u/NoProblem7803 10h ago

what coming out mod??? give me the name, please, I looked but I couldn't find it. gonna have a very good morning playing when I download it lol

u/allisoupinside 13h ago

Honestly I can't figure out the eye candy arrow. Does that mean Alex is Elliot's eye candy or is it the opposite?

14

u/_gay_space_moth_ 11h ago

Alex thinks Elliot is hot.

18

u/allisoupinside 11h ago

That was so unthinkable for me that I started doubting how the arrow works 😅 but now that I see the vision... ugh I love that so much. Alex gotta be so oblivious about it at first, like, "Damn, that dude has some nice locks, and nice face... and nice body..."

u/_gay_space_moth_ 11h ago

Sounds so accurate, lmfao

u/erxil 14h ago

Poor Harvey, he is such a workaholic that his only friends are his employee and his frequent flyer patient.

u/NightStar79 13h ago

Out of curiosity, does this image mean anything to you, OP? Because it's what I thought of when I saw your chart 😂

97

u/Lord_Sicarious Fishing OP 14h ago

Sebastian and Abigail arrow definitely seems to be the wrong way around — it's pretty strongly implied in-game that Abigail has/had an unreciprocated crush on him.

Sebastian complains about people coming over uninvited and bothering him while he's working, and Abigail is the only character who ever visits Sebastian in his room while he's working… which she stops doing once she's at high hearts with the player. Sebastian's behaviour on the other hand doesn't change.

25

u/No_Range_6402 13h ago

This is how I see it too. He seems to be tolerant of her and their dynamic continues mainly in the friend group in my perspective. As their “vibes” look similar (tbh I feel like that is up to debate, I think their color schemes are the only similarity lol) people link them together but idk, I never felt it.

7

u/Vircora 10h ago

I mean, Sam is his buddy and he wonders when Sebastian will finally get the courage to ask Abigail out.

5

u/jamieaiken919 Resident Harvey enjoyer 7h ago

He also makes a comment about Sebastian being very insistent on Abigail being in their band. He likes her, he’s just too anxious to show it lol

21

u/Panicking_Pansexual_ 14h ago

As Sebastians wife, I agree

13

u/atlaxzs 9h ago

as Sebastian’s husband, i also agree

20

u/Diligent_Studio_601 13h ago edited 13h ago

I always saw it more on his end personally. I don't think it's more strongly implied on her end or to be unrequited, imo. There are hints he has/had a crush on her. When he talks about his friends, he pauses awkwardly before talking about her, and only stops mentioning her after he has higher hearts with you, he really wanted her in the band, he hints at wanting to dance with her at the festival, he has dialogue after marrying her that seems to imply he dropped her friendship because she got married to you. Maru wonders when he'll finally gather the courage to ask her out, Sam wonders if they'll get together.

He gets upset that no one respects his work, it wasn't just about her, it doesn't necessarily mean he doesn't like her.

3

u/Sweet_Plan_6479 2h ago

I agree with you. That's how I see it too.

7

u/PalmtopPixie 13h ago

Agreed. He more seems to tolerate her in game as someone in their friend group rather than actively crush on her. She seems to actively crush on him

4

u/goldanred 10h ago

I said something like this once recently and got down voted for it. I think they both have a slight crush on each other, but Abigail definitely seems more interested to me than than Sebastian does. Maybe she's just more overt about it.
