Best Friends
by Artificially Intelligent Data Anomaly is a short Harvest Moon DS Cute fanfic themed around the Japanese-only "Best Friends" system, where the protagonist can "befriend" the Special Bachelorettes.
It's a simple, short oneshot where Claire rants about how much she hates Forget-me-not Valley and its ignorant townsfolk, who don't even notice that her and Keira are more than just "best friends".
This fanfic provides examples of:
- Closet Key: Claire had no major interest in anyone until she met Keira.
- Dark Fic: Claire hates her life in a small town, with its prejudiced villagers who are too in denial to notice she's in love with Keira.
- Dude Looks Like a Lady: Claire had a crush on Skye until she learned he was a man.
- All Lesbians Want Kids: Subverted with Claire, who is not happy that Keira was magically impregnated without anyone's consent.
- Gayngst: Claire feels her relationship with Keira is "wrong" because her town won't accept it.
- Sir Swears-a-Lot: In heavy part because of how angry she is, Claire spends much of the story spewing profanity.
- Spell My Name With An S: Keira's name is spelled "Keria".
