The Hathaways !! - Tumblr Posts

✨ The Sisters Headcannons !! ✨
Generalized !!
✨ The family surname is “Hathaway”. Haley loves her last name because it makes her sound like a movie star ( More so due to the alliteration) and Emily thinks it makes them sound like uppity socialites, which doesn’t come off her tongue well. 👀🥂
✨ Their family isn’t originally from Pelican Town. They’re from a neighboring town, called Nuclear Lakes. Lots of suburban houses, a good school district, fairly decent outlet mall, etc. . Still in the valley, but about thirty minutes away, opposite side from Zuzu City. 💕
✨ The Hathaways come from a construction empire, “Hathaway’s Humble Homestead” - their current house was supposed to be their Stardew Valley office branch, before they recognized that it would be a bad business move considering how low the population was in Pelican Town. They nearly scrapped it, before Emily made a deal to pay off its mortgage. 👀🥂
👑 Haley 👑
✨ Haley’s full name is “Haley Hope Hathaway “, her mom felt like she and Emily picked their names in the womb, and Haley is near to obsessed with her name, practicing her signature every time she touches a pen to paper. 💕
✨ Haley actually had her own studio apartment in Zuzu City, and she enjoyed the city lifestyle, but she quickly started to get overwhelmed by the bills, the job, and the loneliness. She went to therapy ( until her insurance ran out ) and was diagnosed with generalized anxiety. She has a cold front because she’s terrified of letting someone in and seeing who she truly is. 👀🥂
✨ Haley has chronic back pain. She uses a lot of ice packs at night, and takes a lot of ice baths to relieve the pain. She even lets Emily try more holistic methods like hemp oils and crystal healing. She doesn’t believe they work, but it is nice just letting her mind wander, if only for a little bit. 💕
✨ If Haley had to pick a dream job, it would be a journalist. She could put her photography skills to good use and finally have her opinions out in the open, with people actually wanting to hear what she has to say, without calling her “bitchy” and “out of line”. She also secretly would totally read the newspaper, if only Pelican Town Had one . . . 👀🥂
✨ Haley is for sure a femme lesbian. She has never experienced attraction towards men / masculine people, and regardless of how much she tried to convince herself, she just couldn’t. For the longest time, she thought she was broken, until she moved in with Emily, who is slowly helping her reach self love and acceptance. 💕
✨ Haley would unironically rock noughties fashion - bedazzled tracksuits, chunky flip flops, cherry lipgloss, scrunchies, shell necklaces, you name it, it might be in her closet. 💕
✨ Haley always has her nails painted. 👀🥂
🦜 Emily 🦜
✨ Emily’s full name is “Emily Grace Hathaway”, she much prefers her middle name, and thought about going by her middle name when she moved to Pelican Town, but decided against it, as not to get questioned by her parents. 👀🥂
✨ Emily rarely wears shoes, and always wears toe rings. If she had to wear shoes ( example, to work, for sanitary reasons ), she does have a nice pair of boots . . . They’re the only shoes she owns though. 👀🥂
✨ Emily has an on - again - off - again relationship with Sandy, but it’s not what you think !! Emily and Sandy have fully agreed to take breaks when they feel necessary, especially if life feels chaotic. They’ve also agreed that if they find someone that they share a special connection with, and they want to pursue monogamy, there’d be no hard feelings. 💕
✨ Emily used to have a pixie undercut, but ever since the bus broke down, she hasn’t been able to go to her normal hairdresser. Both she and Haley are terrified of cutting it at home because of everything that could go wrong, ranging from fashion fiascos to accidental cuts from the razor. 👀🥂
✨ Emily has always been a bird girl, and begged her parents to keep every sick of injured bird she finds . . . unfortunately their parents did not see eye to eye on pets, especially birds. 👀🥂
✨ Emily is also a lesbian, but that is a given. 💕
✨ Emily occasionally does hallucinogens, like shrooms and acid. Leah regrets telling her which kind of mushrooms are “magic mushrooms”. 👀🥂
✨ Emily hates pants and would never, ever wear them. Too restrictive, even the pretty, loose, baggy pants are too much for her. Strictly skirts and dresses. 💕
