I've been digging through my old Harvest Moon stuff and came across this picture of my old Pony cosplay, circa 2015 or so. It was one of my favorite cosplays and I really should make the updated version with the dog on the shirt.
This is the other part of the anon ask for character breakdowns. This time, we’re featuring Archeologist Carter!
How I feel about this character:
As I mentioned in the Grant ask, I haven’t gotten past the first year of AWL yet, so I have yet to interact with Carter in-game. I’ve seen screencaps, but most of my experience with Carter is from HMDS and HMDS Cute. This is actually the first Harvest Moon Carter I was acquainted with, and I always thought it was odd you could phone the church in HMDS to remove curses and a different Carter would answer the line. Technically you had two Carters in one game, hehe.
Carter has always struck me as incredibly focused on his work at the dig, to the point of obsession. He’s a very hard worker, but despite that, he does enjoy the fresh air outside of the dig. I never really think of him having many other interests outside of his studies and looking into finding out more about his ancestors. Because of this, I feel like he falls a little flat. He doesn’t spend much time outside of the dig, and when he is anywhere else, he seems to be focused either on work or how much he hates Flora’s cooking. Oh, yeah, and getting his energy from the sun…
All the people I ship romantically with this character
I honestly don’t really ship Carter with anyone because I feel like he’s basically married to his work. There are other characters who have this, like Doctor Trent, but I can see Trent as more receptive to others’ emotions. I feel that with a little more development for Carter, he could be someone you could count on.
Farmer x Carter: Because the main character is basically a blank slate, he could work as a good partner for the player. The only problem is that he needs to find some more hobbies. I mean, I appreciate that he’s a hard worker - and I think that meshes well if you play as a hardworking farmer. The problem is that he tends to treat the MC like an assistant. I think if he was written with some more development, he could be a good partner. I guess this is an instance where fanfic comes into play, haha.
Flora x Carter: Again, if he was able to see her as more than an assistant, I think things would work better. Their communication isn’t the greatest. I get the impression he has a sensitive stomach and her serving spicy foods makes him feel sick. If he just spelled that out for her and she was more willing to listen, or if he could, you know, cook for once, things would go better. They do have an odd love scene in AWL that I saw online where it’s clear they have some sort of feelings for each other. I just feel like it was portrayed in a really awkward way. Then again, I feel like both Carter and Flora are kinda awkward in their own ways, hehe.
My non-romantic OTP for this character
I could see Carter becoming friends with the locals at the bar when stops by for a drink. Honestly, I see Muffy and Griffin being friends with the whole town. I feel like Carter values his alone time, and he’s okay with having a smaller network of friends.
My unpopular opinion about this character
I don’t think he’s a very popular character, so probably most of these opinions aren’t too wild. Firstly, Carter’s age doesn’t bother me at all, and I think his design looks fine. I thought of him as “sooo old” when I was a kid, but now that I’m older, I appreciate that there were older characters available to marry. However, I think he could use some more development to become a better marriage candidate. I don’t feel like they added enough to him in HMDS to make him a valid marriage choice. With Cody and Daryl, I felt like there were far more interesting characters to marry.
I don’t dislike Carter, but I feel like he doesn’t have a good sense of other people’s feelings. It doesn’t help that Flora is also stubborn in her own ways. Them as a couple is a little concerning because I feel like they don’t communicate that well as they’re currently written.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.
I really wish that Carter was given more of a chance to grow more in personality. His heart events with Flora fall a little flat for me, as do the ones with the MC. I’d like to see him with a passion for more than just one thing. I guess he likes taking in the sunlight, but have him practice Tai-Chi or something for variety. I’d love some more scenes with Carter at the bar that are more than just him getting drunk. I want to see him interacting with Griffin and Muffy in a friendly manner.
Thank you so much for the ask! Have a good one! ^-^
7 years apart… im always growing, maybe ill do this again in another 7 years! the new one was just a warm up, while the first i know i worked on for HOURS.

Happy 30th Anniversary to the series that best defined cozy games for me! 💗 Since we are all getting old, I wanted to draw Jill/Pony turning gray and sentimental over a few of her favorite memories.
