Congrats on the new demo btw very happy for you! The old demo was perfect, but I'm loving all the added scenes. The codex makes me so excited! I saw that you said the stat screen is hidden for now, is the relationship meter hidden too?

Right now yes! All the characters are going to have personal codex pages which with hold information on their relationship with MC along with other fun things. :)

I might add in a temporary relationships page tho next major update! We'll see 👀

Benichidori is jirai kei

Benichidori's modern look is very iconic to the japanese alt fashion movement jirai kei! The archetype associated with it even fits her in interesting ways. Here's what and why

(The untranslated top part reads something like: "If their world was our modern world, Benichidori would have worn contacts and drawn tear troughs.)

The two most damning features are her very distinct makeup and pink & black hair combo! Incredibly iconic. The iconic jirai kei has a very specific look, being dressed in pink and black or some white, with casual chic type blouse and skirt, but the "subcul jirai", a somewhat debatable semantic, is used for the look of jirai kei that has become more neglected in its wider image with time, for example very commonly seen wearing a huge loose shirt like a dress. Baggy & loose, primarily dark with pastel embellishments is a way to sum it up. Something dark with an edge of innocent.

I'm gonna be quoting the aesthetics wiki because I think they put it better than I could. I also recommend the japanese fashion wiki for more info and visuals— Here I tried to pick references that are more subcul and less front and center, but for example Benichidori's exact hairstyle is common if you look around. "地雷系 is a subculture originating from Japan that is heavily based on the teens hanging out in the night life of Kabukichō (a red light district). During the height of its popularity it highly resembled Japanese Girly fashion, especially dark girly, but has since moved on to integrate a broader variety of styles. The stereotype behind this subculture is that cute, hyperfeminine young women who dress in darker fashion styles have personalities that do not match their appearance. Rather than being sweet and demure, they are said to be violent and obsessive (like a Yandere), and-"

I'll spare the gritty, more sensitive details, but yes the reputation of this style is based on very stigmatized negative assumptions of its wearers being emotionally unstable, with mood swings. Jirai in the first place means landmine, so the name associated to the fashion being "landmine" gives you an idea of the stereotypes associated with those who wear it, it's the same idea as with calling someone a ticking time bomb.

Which brings us to our girl! Very quiet yes, very demure, looks pretty and does her job in elegance and silence. Until…

Mood swings is right! For Benichidori analyses I have other posts, but it's clear Benichidori has her sensitive spots and anxiety spikes that can get her to lash out- canonically stated dysmorphia, black on white text on her profile, in fact.

So yes lots of dark and problematic roots with this movement, both in actual events surrounding it and the way they are treated for it. Needing money for a host addiction (Host clubs- Usually predatory industry where people grow an attachment to the escort they buy time with/for. I recommend the oneshot Kamiya by Tsubasa Yamaguchi that depicts this), gang affiliations, trafficking... And well, Benichidori does have experience with one of these.

But yeahh! I want people to draw more of modern Beni, basically. Love her. Give her attention. This could even be used as ship fodder. Hienbeni Benichidori yandere confirmed. Did you know? Modern Rin is goth/dark girly, according to her summer sketchpage look <3 I love thinking of them hanging out, rinbeni real. The ninja trio girlies all trying out alt fashion together and aaa 💕

I found so many clips of people all telling the story of how jirai kei is not so secretly messed up and yada yada when I first looked into the subculture, but it is good to know that jirai kei/dark girly clothing is being worn a lot by people not part of its culture as well, apparently! It's becoming more mainstream, so to speak. Still, in my heart Beni remains my landmine girl……… 🫶

No, Dean “in denial” Winchester would not go to a pride parade, let alone go to one with another queer man.

Hey, I saw your mystery shack Sims 4 build when i was looking for a build to use for my Pines family sims! I know you said you weren't finished yet, but is there any chance you would be interested in uploading the wip? It's incredibly impressive as is, and far more accurate than any of the others I've seen available for download! I would really love to play with it, even if you don't think it's perfect yet.

my laptop is older than gravity falls; it takes 10~15 minutes to boot up and about 40-90 minutes to boot the sims 4 depending on its mood—not counting all the time it'll take to find and redownload the mods that have broken due to updates (and my laptop also opens webpages slowly).

so, i can upload it sometime; but we'll have to wait for the stars to align.

[A crumb of ES MegaSound angst writing]

Never in all of Soundwave’s functioning had he envisaged that a wedge could be any other shape, yet this was his reality: the literal life-force of their true home, manifested in the shape of a cube, had divided them. Did all that time standing behind him, carrying out his word and will, now amount to nothing? All those cycles spent by his side had meant everything to him, but what remained of Megatron now betrayed all that he once proudly stood for. 

The thought of him never failed to make his fuel lines boil, and by Primus did he fume ceaselessly no matter how much Ravage wove around his legs or laid in his arms attempting to soothe him. Never had he been wounded so deeply by a bot whose betrayal was much worse than unthinkable — utterly unfathomable! How could he contend with the fact the bot who had embodied the Cause now spat in every proud Decepticon’s face? It insulted him greatly! By no means was he unfamiliar with rage, but its newfound unbridledness had woven into his very spark.
