Any way to get to 3 hearts in a week?

[WorgenWoman]

Okay, so I need something from Linus. Apparently he's the only way I can get the recipe for sashimi, and I need that to impress the love of my life (Sebastian). I have only a week or two until his birthday. Help?

Are you just looking for a loved gift for Sebby? There's much easier loved gifts for him... And honestly, the only way you're gonna get 3 hearts for Linus in a week is if Linus' birthday is also that week... which it probably isn't... and you give him amazing gifts.

If you want an easier gift for Sebby:
Give him a frozen tear from the mines or a void egg, which you can sometimes buy from the travelling merchant or I think from Krobus... if you can even trade with Krobus yet.

Frozen tears aren't too hard if you mine. You can find them starting on level 40 of the mines down through 79, or in frozen geodes. And void eggs are a bit pricey to buy from the travelling merchant, but she's around twice a week, so you've got a decent chance with her.

EDIT: Do you have an upgraded house already? 'Cause if you do, you can probably afford a void egg. And if you don't, you can't make sashimi anyway.

Eh, Linus has a lot of likes that you can obtain early which consists of fogring items.
Unfortunately, you don't have access to coconuts and cactus fruit which is two of items Linus loves along with other items you wouldn't have access yet. For his likes, since you're approaching into winter, you can use your hoe and dig anywhere on the beach to get winter roots and snow yam when you arrive into winter. Or if by any chance you're still in Fall, forge for Hazelnuts, Common Mushroom, and Chanterelle to give to Linus. In all honestly, 3 hearts isn't too bad to earn and there's no rush.

Anyway, in case you decide to not use my suggestions, definitely take the other advice from Mondai.

Linus loves yams, so if you have gold star ones, you'll be able to get some decent friendship.

Frozen tears really aren't very rare... You should be either done or at least close to being done with the mines by winter. O_o At the very least you should be able to grind 40-80 fairly quickly to find a frozen tear.

Rarity does not matter for gifting.

Gg, I've been looking at outdated comments.
