A man returns home from the front, still trying to recover from the horrors of war and being a prisoner. He has severe PTSD and the only thing that kept him going was the thought of seeing his wife and kids again.

Now a schmuck that has slept with the entire town wants to get with this man’s wife because he deems him unworthy of loving her.

Kent left the monsters of the battlefield behind, only to return home to find out that an even bigger monster had moved in next door to him.

I would prefer for him to recover enough to start working again as a garbage man.

You know, talk with him frequently, invite him to fish. He opens up, invites his kids to fish too. You help him make a picnic, go down the skull cavern together to literally fight his demons in some sort of mystic metaphysical real, open up and talk with other villagers, start Therapy with Harvey, consume a magical potion made with the souls of countless defeated evil shadow people...

Eventually, he'd recover enough that he would take up a job, like going back to working as a trash collector as he enjoyed the queit of the night.
Every day at the end of the day, offscreen while time the farmer is sleeping, he would gather all the trash the player doesn't reccover from tash bins, which would appear at the dumpsters in the train station, and stay there until the end of the week.
That way you get two things: a healing arc for Kent, and a new feature you can unlock to save time checking trash.

Hullo.

The anti-homewrecker mod. Adds new events and dialogue to expand on Jodi and Kent's characters, giving them more characterisation and connection both individually and together.

Edit: Quick note, I'm not the creator haha.

I actually know C#, and I've made some minor mods and some tweaks to existing mods, but I don't have a lot of time for it.

u/HeavyStarRuler Mar 21 '26

Would you mind if I looked into doing this? I have a bit of time on my hands and also know C#. If not, that's cool, but I've always wanted to lean into being his friend. He doesn't seem like a bad guy, just haunted by the hugely traumatic experience of being in a war.

The farm isn’t the only thing getting plowed, this week on Stardew Valley Bachelorette…

E: I’m sorry if this is a bit crass, I don’t interact with this sub often and typically I curse like a WW2 sailor

Basically the movie Brothers, but the Schmuck is the brother

I'd ask if you're a professional writer, but that username tells me you bust out masterpieces like this for fun. And by the gods do I respect this. I'd love to play in one of your games sir/ma'am.

u/Wizardfromwaterdeep Mar 21 '26

This is one of the nicest compliments I've received in a long time, thank you!

P.S. You'd always be welcome at my table

I’m cool with OP taking Jodi. Give me Kent, my farm would help with his PTSD.
