Daily routine

Rain or shine she is at the ranch most of the day. Only in winter does she take time off: knitting lessons at Ethereal Styles in the afternoon, then the plaza food stalls with Bruce. Use the Social app on the in-game phone (Locate / Follow) to pin her on the map; routes change with season and weather.

Gifts Pastelle loves, likes and hates

You can give each NPC one gift per day. The lists below come from the game’s data export cross-checked against two independent player-tested guides: items marked confirmed appear at the same tier in at least two sources; the rest are listed only in the data export. All of this was verified during Early Access (patches 0.3–0.7) and is being re-checked for 1.0 — if something has changed, use the contact page.

Gift theme: Animal feed — every feed type (including Love, Mega and Mirth variants) is Loved. The data export also lists hundreds of outfits as Loved, which community testers have not confirmed, so treat feed as the safe bet.

Loved (+15 affection)

The data export lists 893 Loved items for Pastelle — far too many to print; the theme above summarises them. Confirmed by two sources: Mega Sheep Feed, Rabbit Feed.

Sugar painting

After a 2-heart photo together you can take the picture to the sugar-painting stall in town (100 gold) and hand Pastelle a “Sugar Painting – Pastelle”. Every NPC has a unique reaction to their own painting; reported affection gains range from 0 to +30 depending on the character. See the gifts guide for the full rundown.

Romance with Pastelle

Pastelle can be romanced by a player character of either gender. Affection runs on a five-heart scale (roughly 90 / 220 / 370 points for hearts 1–3, with 500 / 750 reported by players for hearts 4–5). Conversation (about 5 points a day), gifts, bulletin-board requests (15–30) and returning lost items (20) raise it; because Pastelle is a profession mentor, her profession quests add up to 50 points each, which is why mentors are the fastest romances. At three hearts you can enter her room (with a weekly blueprint chest) and, in 1.0, receive a Relationship Story; at five hearts a voiced invitation scene plays and the Move In option appears — the game has no wedding or children system, so cohabitation is the final step. Dating activities (picnic, arcade, kite-flying) were extended to all 14 romanceable NPCs in 1.0. Full mechanics: romance & marriage guide.
