#sim goes nuts in the notes

[self-made-purgatories]

Canonically, Spock is drawn to small fuzzy creatures.

Jim is a Short King / small guy (in comparison to long tall Spock and his Vulcan bone density anyway).

Spock was in control of his emotionsTM about Jim until Jim grew out his chest and arm hair. Spock notices the change in Jim's body hair and before he knows it he finds himself doing Vulcan hand stuff sloppy style with fuzzy Jim right in front of Chapel and McCoy's salads in the sickbay

Coincidence? I think not.

watching the realization publicly dawn in real time in the comments is fucking amazing

hey gamers I’ve started watching star trek does anyone else see the romantic tension between captain kirk and mr. spock

[self-made-purgatories]

So it's Kirk's birthday but Spock has to work so Bones shows up at the door in these skintight hoochie cowboy pants with a bottle of really strong illegal liquor and hands Kirk a little pouch and Kirk's first question is whether the pouch contains Klingon aphrodisiacs like that's a perfectly normal thing Bones sometimes brings over and I'm not supposed to ship McKirk?

Hey folks! Apparently, I'm nuts, and working for serious on an actual game! This form is to do a quick interest check for those that may be curious about it.

Loveless is a dating sim through the eyes of an aromantic. Get to know seven different characters, their stories and their interests, and watch them get to know each other too! Grapple with amatonormativity in a world built for romantic relationships, make wise choices to garner affection, and figure out if partnering is really best for you.* Includes (plans to include): - Play as male, female, or non-binary. - Choose your own name (first and last)! - Multiple endings, including partnered and non-partnered endings. - A diverse cast. Currently developed by one person, this form is just an interest check to see if people would be interested in participating in. Please note that at current there is no way for me to pay for an entire team, so unfortunately it would have to consist of volunteering. Short of straight up commissioning for the work, but even then it would break my bank. Therefore, no pressure to say yes to anything! * = this description is liable to change. Game is currently in early alpha.

I may or may not end up making social media accounts for this specifically as well, we'll see how it goes.

Non-aromantics are welcome to reblog and contribute, but please do not derail.

Wednesday Wellness #1

Self-Esteem Edition...

So I bought this self-esteem work book in hopes it would help me feel better about myself. In it, it suggests journaling. My therapist agrees. I'm at the part where it suggests I review my day every night using basic questions. My therapist agrees. SO here goes...

If you could rate your day on a scale of one to ten (one being unhappy and ten being extremely happy), how would you rate it? 6/7

Briefly describe your day, what happened to make it a happy/ unhappy one? Include even the mundane stuff (you never know, there might be some hidden joy lurking in cleaning the toilet!). Woke up, got ready in peace (that was nice). Cuddles with hubby. Got my daughter up. Got my son ready. Went downstairs to make breakfast for us all. Didn't do my morning chores, because we had to get to an early doc appt for my son. Found parking easy. Checked in. Got in relatively on time. Children went crazy in the doctors office. Daughter threw a fit because I told her to get off the doctor's chair. Went to library for story time. Chasing both kids around. Story time. Home. Lunch. Nap. I played Sims 4 (working on creating a new save file). Kids got up. Made dinner. Husband took daughter to store so I had the boy child. Called my parents once they got back. Bath time for wee one with young Frankenstein musical on in the background. Got 15 minutes of alone time. Read to child. I've been searching for a way to find Big Brother online to watch it so I can engage with co-workers. Failed.

Try to keep some notes in a diary or journal every day for a week. Using your notes, try to identify any patterns. What were you doing on the days that you felt at your best? What didn't make you feel good? I'm pretty good at detecting patterns in my own behavior. I definitely get thrown off when my routine is off (like when I can't get my chores done in the morning). I get really overwhelmed by noise, so the kids being crazy at the doctor's office while I'm trying to listen and answer questions is frustrating. My daughter is in a rough time for listening right now, and that's hard to deal with. (I'm a teacher, I get triggered when I have to repeat myself or go through extra lengths to get attention.) My daughter is also insanely whiney lately and that's driving me nuts. I'm really dysregulated, so she's dysregulated. (Side note....dysregulated? disregulated? autocorrect might be wrong this time...)

What makes you feel amazing? When do you feel most like yourself? When do you laugh most? When do you feel peaceful? Shit man, get deep. Okay. I feel amazing when everything goes according to plan. I can follow my routines with relative ease and minimal disruptions. I feel amazing when my kids are happy and content (within reason). I feel like myself I've accomplished things on my to do list and feel successful in my day going the way I wanted it to go. I laugh when I'm relaxed enough to enjoy my kids being kids or when I'm out with friends. I feel peaceful when my kids are asleep or gone and I have time to myself.

How could you do more of these things? Can you do one of them every day? I get daily time to myself. My husband is amazing and sees me. He often offers to take one or both kids on quick trips at night so I can have time, or even just letting me go upstairs while he takes care of them. I get alone time. I'm making an effort to out with friends more, but my friends are teachers too and it makes it hard to get together when they're fitting in vacations and family time. I try really hard to follow my routines. I very much am working on accomplishing my routines and staying on track. I think a big piece of my issue this week has been sleep. I was up too late Sunday and Monday night. Last night I don't think I slept well. That always plays a big role in my ability to function. I'm going to work on making sure I'm getting enough sleep and peaceful routines in the morning.

Well, that wasn't too bad. This might be my routine for a few Wednesdays, but overall this seems easy. Might move on to different prompts. We'll find out.

Thanks for listening Void. You always make me feel heard.

re: random-ass questions, what kinds of sims houses do you like to create? like are there any kind of features/rooms you love to include or do you like to go nuts with the landscaping or the shape of the building or the decorating?

Ohmygod if I could boot up my PC and show you I totally would (I haven't turned it on since last year).

I am absolutely terrible at house design, I can't place the windows correctly, I can't quite figure out room sizes and such, I overdo the lights. I essentially make one giant square/rectangle and then try to separate the rooms, but it always goes badly.

(this is all Sims 3+expansion packs, I didn't really do anything with the houses in Sims 2. I think I was 18 when I stopped playing 2 and stuck exclusively to 3)

So I always take a pre built house, I love making a basement in them as like a hidey hole for one specific sim, there's always a hobby room because I always have a sim be talented in one hobby and just dedicate the room to it. It also depends on what type of town I'm playing in, like Moonlight Falls always has an olde aesthetic, and gothic vibe, so although those houses will have technology, I redecorate the insides to have old looking furniture and decorations. Especially if I'm doing a vampire play through, I once went full in with a Vampire household with candles, chandeliers, stone walls, hidden door via bookcase. There's always a balcony too with a telescope, any chance to get them abducted by aliens.

Ooh, and because each sim has their own traits, each thing they paint looks different based upon that. I usually keep at least one painting of each size and keep it from each sim.

Aside from those few tidbits, I'm pretty generic when it comes to buildings, I give them a personality around the vibe of the Sims I've made (green thumbs have loads of flowers but I gave up with that one super quick because I couldn't stop the zombies.) but that's the extent of it. I love making things such bright colours, if there's a chance to use the colour wheel to change the colour of things I so do it, example being people and their clothes.

This must've been from around 2014, I made one family of different colours to see what colours the kids would be, then I altered an already existing family just to see how long it would take for the whole town to go from base game colours to different. (I found that on my Facebook profile whoops.)

(Side note, this ask made me boot it up on the Steam Deck and I forgot how small the flats are in Bridgeport, I'm dying this is so funny)

How about you, anon? Do you play the game and go nuts with landscaping or decorating?

project: stay single — profiles two : everyone’s favorite idiot nerds

meet the members !

yang jungwon (2004): currently ranked 1st in the class, genius but socially not, super kind and will tutor you for free (even if you don’t want him to), is a sarcastic dork with his friends but most people will never see that side

kim seonwoo (2003): goes by sunoo, jungwon’s best friend ever since he decided to “adopt” him in middle school, everybody’s fav extrovert, knows everyone and everything going on in school somehow, does pretty well in school but likes to play dumb (probably to get info from people)

nishimura riki (2005): also best friends with jungwon and sunoo, loves to slip deez nuts jokes into conversations, tries to get others to buy him food but rarely succeeds, skipped a grade so he’s in jungwon’s class but somehow does and says the dumbest things

sim jake (2002): the australian kid that jungwon helped find his class one day to the victim of (friendly) bullying 😥, bonded with jungwon over their love for science, encourages riki’s deez nuts jokes and sometimes competes with him on who can say it the most

lee heeseung (2001): the oldest but usually sits back when the others cause trouble because he thinks the chaos is entertaining, is just waiting to graduate, honestly burnt out from school but still manages good grades, probably not the best person to come to for advice but the group always asks him

synopsis: when being the youngest and only girl of the park household, strict parents and overprotective brother and cousins are a given. therefore, park y/n sworn off dating until she enters college (not that she had much of a choice). but when the awkward but terribly cute yang jungwon is placed in her lab group, she finds herself wanting to break the number one rule in her family—no dating till college. or maybe they could be just friends, right?

We're 5 months into 2022 as of May 22nd. It's time for another look at just how fucked we are by checking in on

The Timeline

Elon Musk buys Twitter to own the libs. Wait actually he changes his mind. Maybe actually yes. Wait. What about all the bots? Maybe no. Lots of people are jumping ship

Eurovision happened. Something about banana wolves and pussy salad? Idk man, but Ukraine won

Square Enix sold a bunch of IPs for... NFTs. Like Deus Ex and Tomb Raider. For. NFTs.

BTW NFTs and crypto fell hard recently

BTW BTW, one of the biggest NFT guys behind those ugly monkeys tried to make a dating site for themselves, then called it off because of too many dudes

Speaking of dating, Dead By Daylight is making a dating sim called DBD Hooked on You, made by the same people that made the KFC dating sim. Now you can date your favorite serial killers and be the "I can fix him" girl you've always wanted to be

Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers came back in the weirdest possible way. Look aesthetics aside, I mean it when I say weird. Like Ugly Sonic makes an appearance weird. Like two characters got together that had no business getting together weird. Like Chip n Dale not sounding like Chip n Dale weird.

You know that bird that was in Lion King? Zazu? Yeah his species is going extinct. I thought it was a toucan or something but nah, thats a Yellow Billed Horn Bill, and climate change is wiping them out.

MCR is back- again! This time Measles didn't come with them

Unfortunately Monkeypox did. Yeah turns out it's was around before in 2003 or so, even 2021. Do some googling but try not to panic. There are treatments from the looks of things so we're already better off than we were with Covid, but educate yourselves on the matter to be safe, and don't brush off warnings.

Fairly Odd Parents has a live action Paramount+ series where Timmy leaves very 2d Cosmo and Wanda to some very not 2d and live kids when he goes off to college or something idk. Btw, Vicky works at the school now. Btw btw, Vicky has a crush on- go ahead and guess- no seriously try it you'll never get it- it's Crocker. Twitchy ass FAIRY god PARENTS ass ear on his neck ass Crocker. Yeah she was 16 during the regular show and he was still middle aged and yes this did come out of nowhere, why do you ask?

Digimon Survive survived development hell and is actually coming out in like 2 months, and seems like it might be a VN with Tactical RPG elements and a karma system- oh and teens will probably die, most definitely

Avatar actually put out a trailer for its new movie. No no not the fun one with the bald kid or buff tomboy- the one with blue people that have sex with their hair

Warner Bros really weren't joking when they decided to make a co-op Smash clone of characters like Batman, Arya Stark, Jake the Dog, and Ultra Instinct Shaggy. It's real. I swear I saw it. I stg Batman and UI Shaggy really fought against Bugs Bunny and fucking Arya Stark. I wish I was lying.

Kingdom Hearts 4 is announced, and Sora has gone down from a size 32 clown shoe to a size 13 as he steps into the most disturbingly realistic world in the franchise yet.

Oh and this was a couple of months back, but Robert Pattison and Zoë Kravitz were interviewed by a Vtuber named LaPlus (La+?) Darkness from the Japanese side of Hololive, where she asked him how he used the bathroom in the Batman suit, and he gave a fun answer. He actually looked happy

And to end it on a somewhat bittersweet note. Scrat finally got the nut. That fucked up squirrel from Ice Age that caused several natural disasters, broke the laws of physics, broke EARTH- he finally. Finally got his nut. His struggle is over.

Until we meet again

Detox Water Dispenser

My very first craftable object, yey!

[19/03/2022] Fixed an error that was throwing the last exception when using the dispenser. Also added two versions one that supports SoL and one for users who don't use it (because it was reported another last exception due to this). Also while I was on it I changed the tuning of the interaction, because I wasn't satisfied with the annoying brewing sound and hot steam (I mean this is just detoxing water, we don't need to cook it, right) and now there is no annoying brewing sound anymore, instead I changed to more appropriate one, filling water (the interaction from the sink). Note that because the animation is the one from the sink, the sim's hand gets inside the counter, I can't fix it since it's the canon animation.

[14/03/2022] Fixed issue with missing glass

Intro:

Those of you who know me from TSR are familiar that I mostly do custom content, but after I put my hands on the Watermill I was mesmerized by the opportunity to create something functional that gives out something. It's pure magic!

This mod I started in January and I've been working on it literally until last night. All modders out there have my adoration and respect, it is really hard to do modding, but you are creating magic, people!

Description:

Detox Water Dispenser is a small appliance that can be used to make different flavored types of water for detoxing and keeping a healthy lifestyle. It can be found in buy mode under "Appliances -> Small appliances", it can be placed on every surface, but I would advise you to use counters or dining tables to make sure it functions properly. it costs 350$.

It's draggable and you can keep it in your Sim's inventory when you travel. When you press on the Dispenser you'll see an option to make Detox Water, this will open a selection menu and you can choose from 10 different types of flavors. The flat price for each drink is 8$, but if you have the needed ingredients it's free.

Each drink boost the Health Nut lifestyle

the Immune Defense and the Health Detox combat the vanilla sickness when consumed

Each drink decrease the body fat

Hydrating Detox drinks combat acne from SOL's mod

The ingredients are optional. Some of them are custom, so if you have icemunmun, BrazenLotus, or Leniad's ingredients, they will show up.

Resources / Credits:

For those of you who are aspiring modders and want to create functional objects like this one, I've been using the following tutorials, plus a lot of personal discovery with trial and error, I'm by no mean a specialist but if you need help for similar concept feel free to write me, I'll be happy to help with whatever I can.

Leniad's Craftable Toy Tutorial

Leniad's Menu Expander Craftable Tutorial

Leniad's Custom Food Creation Tutorial

- it can be a little confusing if you never did modding before (I was a little overwhelmed), but these are the only tutorials I managed to find when I was looking to help myself. These tutorials work with Leniad's Craftables Enabler and if you don't aim for something big as a beginning these are ideal. My problem was that I wanted a custom object and from there I had to figure out how to create this thing to work. So the other credit goes to PiedPiper over Patreon, who helped me out by advising me to study the Coffee Maker's XML.

I really hope you'll enjoy my object, I did enjoy creating it and I hope it will expand your game possibility.

should be noted that the majority of the remaining 40% of weird fandom tropes are actual literal canon (sex pollen! fuck or die! aliens made them do it! traveling back to feral caveman times and fucking behaving like a feral caveman!) because the creators and the writers and the actors on the show also absolutely, hopelessly, desperately wanted to fuck Spock

like a solid 60% of weird fandom tropes were invented by women who needed slightly more avant garde ways to fuck spock.... wanting to fuck spock is in many ways a load bearing pillar of fandom like if u took it away the source code would just break theres like a molecule of wanting to fuck spock or reaction to everyone wanting to fuck spock within the heart of fanfic all fanfiction is about wanting to fuck spock except fanfic about wanting to fuck spock which is about women in stem

[rebouks]

How would you recommend growing a community on tumblr? I have struggled with this in the past and have recently gotten back on here. Love your content!

Aweee thanks nonny and welcome back! 🤗 I'll try my best, but I'm no expert aha.. here are a few tips/ideas I think might help you make the most of being here on simblr ❤

Don't be afraid to show the love! Leave likes/comments on peoples posts, even the old ones. Everyone enjoys some good ol' like spam.

Reblogging takes that love a little further, but don't stress and feel like you have to, it's your blog!

Talk to people! Take the time to reply to comments, tell people how much your enjoy their stuff, weigh in on the various daft discussions we all have on here about stupid shit.. like your favourite ice cream flavour or some shit idk 😅 don't be scared to join in is all I'm sayin'.

Follow some tags. Following the ts4 or sims 4 tag for example will fill your dash with people you might not have found otherwise.

Keep an eye out for other new/returning simblrs via the "new simblr" tag. Maybe make your own intro post whilst you're at it.

Hear me out on this one.. but I like to do this thing I call a simblr deep dive. I take a lil' look-see at the notes on peoples posts and check out the blogs liking their stuff, then I check out their notes and and go those blogs, etc etc lmaooo.. Honestly I've found so many new people doing this, it's really fun seeing where you end up aha. For some reason, I always end up in ts3 territory 🤔

Tag people! I wouldn't overdo it or spam.. but if you use a gshade preset someone made, a pose, or a sim from a sim dump etc etc feel free to say a quick thanks and show 'em what you're up to! Most people appreciate the thanks and would love to see how you're enjoying their creations.

Similarly, maybe take part in some simblr tag games and tag the people you'd like to get to know better! I'd tag them accordingly tho cos some people block these (they can get a bit spammy ig, just don't go nuts and it'll be fine)

Take part in/host your own challenges. Bachelor(ette) challenges for example are a great way to meet some new mutuals. I know it's kinda scary to apply/take part in these things sometimes but they're always heaps of fun so it's worth it!

Expand your horizons. I'm not telling you what to enjoy here but if you only look out for one type of content you're gonna miss some good shit! You might find some inspo or something new to enjoy.

I think this one goes without saying, but be friendly! You don't have to enjoy everyone's content on here but if you don't have something nice to say, don't say it.

Try not to stress over your notes/follower count. Take quality over quantity and just try to enjoy yourself! The numbers might come (or not) but it's not important as long you're having fun.

Fandom: Call Of Duty

Pairing: Russell Adler x Bell

Words: 2.918

Warnings: some mild sexual content and swearings, like usual

Author’s note: okay, i know this one's a little short but i promise there'll be more coming on the next chapter, i promise.

The first time Bell showed her face at Langley, it was two weeks after the program. She wore beige, a ruffled high-neck blouse that made her hazel eyes, like charred nut shells, hard and just about indestructible, popped.

She stood at the lobby, regarding the place like she’d waltzed into a wrong banquet hall, the band played in the background, chandeliers dripping like arctic icicles, the bar drenched in opulent gold.

She didn’t belong here.

But Adler met her there, anyway, Hudson in tow.

“Have I ever done something to him?” Bell asked after the rather short-lived meeting, squinting at the vacant spot Hudson left them. She’d yielded very few words. When she did, it’d been all business, crisp, so it surprised him now to hear her uttering something with more than 2 syllables.

“What do you mean?”

“Have I deliberately done something to piss him off?” she elaborated, quieter, but the glower remained.

Adler carefully studied her behind his tinted shades. It still troubled him to a degree that he couldn’t read her. Like she locked herself off. They say eyes are the window to the soul, but thus far, he saw nothing. Fuck the poets.

“No. At least, not as far as I can tell,” he grits out, curious to see where she was heading with the conversation. “Why?”

Bell hummed, but seemingly unconvinced. A beat, then: “He doesn’t seem to like me that much.”

You don’t belong here, he thought and his face went cagier, back stiffer, but no doubt intrigued. Very much so by this mysteriously curious creature.

Perceptive and diamond-sharp intelligent, he pondered. They might have secured the bag after all.

“It's not you. That’s just as warm and fuzzy you’ll see Hudson with everyone, trust me,” he uttered, hoping that she bought the fib. She did. At least, he thought so. “Come on, Bell, we’ve got a job to do.”

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Adler finds her outside the garage the next night, smoking alone, reading in secret. The ground is still wet from the rain, straggling cloud wisps and every artery of this place fucking freezes his bones. Bell ditches her gloves inside, but has her coat on, the collar popped up like antennae.

"You aren't cold?" he asks when she doesn’t notice him. Too engrossed in her own bubble. She does look better, though. Park is right about that one at least.

"I'm good," she answers without looking up. "Am I needed for something inside?"

"No, just thought I could use some fresh air."

He’s studying her, raking her from head to toe. Suddenly, he doesn’t care if she would notice him. Then he steps closer, standing next to her, lifting his cigarette to his mouth.

“What are you reading?”

There’s something about this secret element to her that has him on his toes. Everything about her is curious- frustratingly curious, careful, as Bell rolls her neck to meet him. In the low light, she looks quite new, he learns. And his eyes beg for him to linger.  

“Amerika. Kafka,” she says. “Have you read it?”

A subtle shake of his head and, “No.” While Bell nods, silent, like she doesn't know what else to say to him. “Should I? Give it a read?” Adler adds, just to keep the conversation going.

She shrugs, a cloud of smoke escaping her nostrils. “I can’t say that Kafka is ever a favorite of mine, but he really is sui generis. And Amerika is probably the most approachable of all his works? It’s funny too.”

“I never thought I’d hear Kafka and funny in the same sentence.”

“Yeah, well, it’s very subtle. And if only you can understand his nightmarish sense of humor, that is,” she explains, shrugging again, like she’s embarrassed. “I don’t know, maybe you’ll like it.”

Frankly, he hates Kafka. He hates his vatic, dead-eye vision of the world; that acute sense of hopelessness clinging onto his main protagonists like vines, but Adler finds himself nodding, anyway.

“Sure, lend me your copy once you're done with it." If she’s surprised by his answer, she does not tell her. But Adler thinks she’s smiling though- just the barest quirk of her lips, but it’s enough for him to know that she appreciates the gesture.

A brief, unmapped silence ensues.

"I'm sorry, by the way."

Adler arches an eyebrow at her. "For what?"

Bell slots a bookmark into the book, closes it, frowns at it.

"For yesterday. I, uh… I feel like I was being insolent to you.”

He looks sidelong at Bell and tries to read her. Her expression is raw and open, a painting visible through a small tear in the paper. For some reason, that catches him by surprise.

“You already apologized, you know?” Adler teases lamely.

“I know, but still it was uncalled for and very unprofessional of me. You’re my CO, not some random BND agent I’m forced to work with. I shouldn’t have said that," she mumbles softly and sighs, world-weary, heavy, sounding like a woman twice her age. "It will not happen again. I promise you."

"Hey, consider it water under the bridge, kid. You’re in a rather rough place right now, I wouldn’t hold it against you,” he tells her, fond. “What matters is you’re alright. We can’t catch Perseus if you’re green around the gills.”

Her eyes meet his. He meets her back.

“Thank you.” And Bell rotates her body to face him. Mussed brunette hair and sharp cheekbones, mouth kinked up in sympathy as she says, “Is this what you have to put up with all these years?"

He summons a smirk. "With you? More or less."

And then the woman does the unexpected; Bell laughs. She fucking laughs. Delicate sounding, like a tinkling glass, petals wrapped in satin, moonbeams through frosted windows. It dies, too soon to his liking. Adler privately lets the sound of her laughter replays in his head, as if trying to pocket it.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

It’s only after Ukraine when he discovers that she smells different. That wintry floral smell of hers that he’s accustomed to is commingling with something else.

But now-

Now, there's music in the air.

Sims does this sometimes, bringing his Zenith Trans-Oceanic, or as he would call it the Tranny, to the safehouse and they would tune in to international radio stations. Cream's Sunshine Of Your Love is playing- or more specifically, their song is 5 seconds away from being cut off abruptly by the DJ. The song reminds him of Vietnam, regrettably. The root of all madness.

“Next up, is my favorite ever track-to-track transition on an album. This is Pink Floyd’s Brain Damage and-”

Adler stops whatever it is he’s scribbling. He sits up, ramrod straight.

“Mind switching to another station?” he asks suddenly, glances up at Sims quickly who, as Adler suspected, is giving him a rather odd look.

“Why?”

"I've always hated Pink Floyd." Only because he’s out of reason. Only because he can feel Bell’s confused stare, searing into his temple. Only because it’s the only way of escaping this. "Change it, please."

Sims opens his mouth. The unspoken: how about that time in Denver?

The telling jerk of Adler’s lips warns him not to ask.

The other man clamps his mouth shut, seemingly gets the message and switches to a different station. He never brings his radio again.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Frank Woods is exactly how Adler saw him last time- or since Hue City, that is: tigerish and intimidating- a kick in the head voice, a hurricane in the shape of a man and he is making his way to him right now.

“Can I talk to you for a sec?”

"So talk."

Woods shakes his head. "Not here."

Adler looks at him at last now, curiosity creeping over him. He then stubs his cigarette, nods once and leads them both to his office.

Once they’re inside, he locks the door, secures the blinds.

“What is it?” Adler takes a seat behind his desk. Woods remains standing. He paces around the room, a hand on his bearded chin.

“What the fuck is going on with your girl?”

Adler doesn’t know which one is worse, the fact that Woods manages to sniff out something going on with Bell or that he just addresses her as his girl. Either way, it's bad. Either way, Adler should have expected the former issue. Woods is astute as he is dangerous. There's a reason why the CIA gave the green light for Mason and Hudson to save him in Da Nang all those years ago, after all.

"What about her?" Adler asks, even-toned, giving nothing away. Even though he is in the ‘need to know’ column regarding Bell’s brainwashing, this is something Adler initially wishes he could keep under wraps.

“Don’t bullshit me, Adler. She has that look on her face- I see it in her eyes. The exact same look Mason has been wearing since ‘Nam,” Woods tells him, point-blank, never being the one to settle for niceties. After Hudson, Adler thinks he simply can’t tolerate the agency anymore.

“I saw it all, remember? Had a fucking front row seat to his relapse and shit, so don’t tell me she’s alright. Not when it looks like she could snap out of it any moment.” Woods has his hands on the table and looks at him dead-on. “Tell me I’m right. Tell me there is something wrong with her.”

He regards the other man coolly. Woods is no longer asking. Adler is out of move.

“You're right,” he answers simply, eventually, tipping his king over on its side, stopping the clock. "Did you talk to Hudson regarding this?"

"Since when did I report to Agent stick-up-his-ass? Fuck no. That's why I came straight to you.” Woods heaves a heavy sigh, like he’s the one with all these burdens. “Now, what the hell’s wrong with her?”

“She’s suffering from brain damage."

“Shit. All that ‘cause of MK-Ultra?”

“One of the few factors that caused it, yes.”

His mouth goes flat. "How bad is it?”

“Bad. We’re trying to minimize for any collateral as we speak, at least until we finally get our hands on Perseus. But she… she might not make it.” Adler leans back in his chair, like his body feels heavy all of the sudden.

Woods nods. Uncharacteristically silent, looking strangely contemplative, sympathetic even. That should be categorized as an oddity itself, Woods and him, two proud Americans, Vietnam veterans and she’s just another red, another blood they would indubitably sacrifice for their country and they’re sympathizing with her? Yet something deep inside Adler, something resonates like the throat of a storm, sinks its teeth into him, confounds him, every time he thinks of her.

Woods crosses his arms over his chest, glances at the door, as if someone might knock anytime soon, then back to him.

"So, what's the plan?" He quickly adds, "if things go south, what are you gonna do?"

"It won't come to that. She'll come through, I know it," Adler counters, suddenly defensive. Whatever the use of his tone indicates, Woods ignores it.

"You sure about that?”

"Are you doubting me?” Adler spits out a retort. A quiet fury grasps him tight, but he forces himself to keep under a tight lid.

Woods holds his hands up in mock surrender.

"Look, I’m just saying, that woman is a loose cannon- you can’t be too careful."

"We have everything under control, Woods. And this is the least of your worry right now."

"Alright, okay. If you say you and Park have her contained already, then fine. I trust you,” he says and heads for the door.

“Oh, and one more thing,” Woods says again. He’s facing the door, back to him. “Whatever happens, keep Mason in the dark about any of this."

“Of course. He isn’t on a need to know basis from the very start, you know that.”

"Good. ‘cause the less he knows the better." Woods pauses like he's constructing an entire sentence in his head. He peers over his shoulder. "I mean it. He’s been through enough. I don’t know which ground you crawled up from, but up here, some people implement this kind of civility to other people.”

The words sting, yet Adler stares back at him, seemingly unfazed. "What, you’re saying that I’m simply heartless?”

“Nah,” Woods says, satirical and sardonic. “You’re just Adler.” And with that, he’s gone.

1976

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

It was eight o'clock on a mid-September evening and Adler found himself coming home to an empty house.

His wife had already left a week prior, crossing the country with a self-proclaimed film critic she'd met at the premiere of The Shining last summer, but Adler didn't know that yet.

He went to the kitchen. Dropped his suitcase, pulled off his coat and scarf. He reeked of cigarettes, cheap air freshener and jet fuel- air travel is simply sickening, in terms of its cost and smell- and in a desperate need of a hot bath.

"Honey?" He switched the lights on. She wasn't here. So Adler headed upstairs, to their room where they would rest their bones every night for the past 15 years. The door was slightly ajar. He expected to see her sleeping from under the duvet, hair splaying all over the pillow.

What he found was a folded note on his bedside table. He stared at it, his heart at his throat, fearing the worst, the unimaginable. He picked the letter and unfolded it.

Forgive me.

Russell,

Live or die, but don't poison everything .

His head did pirouette. So, this was it. This was what it felt like, he thought.

Not heartbreak, not sadness. But a collapse of the world- his world and all he could do was watch from the sidelines.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1981

Adler stares at the words now, sleeves rolled up, anatomical heart. The paper is fading, wrinkled and it smells like smoke and decay and tears, capped with something akin to regret.

It has his name on it, begins with it, and ends with an apology, written in cursive. Like microscopic snakes dancing around his peripheral vision, hissing in his ears.

Live or die, but don't poison everything.

No one likes to be told that they are sick, but Russell Adler has learned to acknowledge it, embrace it, weaponize it. Her words mean zero shit to him now. You can't condemn someone to the depths of hell when it's the only place he's known all his life.

So, he takes the letter for the last time, remembering how the ink used to smudge his calloused fingers, crumples it up, that satisfying crunch dins in his palm, and tosses it into the fireplace.

The paper crackles. Good fucking riddance. It really takes all this time for him to grow the guts, apparently, and he just stares and stares as the fire begins to engulf everything, wiping away his past failure.

He promises he would never fail again, at anything. No matter what the cost, failure is never going to be an option.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Bell arrives at the garage with frantic eyes, a half-burnt cigarette between her lips and uncharacteristically late. Color peppering her cheeks- red, like an apple bitten into.

“I’m sorry, I overslept,” is her excuse, but she’s looking at the room strangely, he thinks, almost like she’s seeking a particular face.

When she makes her way to her desk, when she whizzes past him by the board and her planet is entering his orbit for the first time in the morning, Adler, as if by accident or by design, inhales deeply.

His breath snags.

She smells like someone else.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

(Someone fucked her last night)

The telephone rings in the distance.

“Sims. Yeah, sure, let me get him. Hold on.” He puts the call on hold. “Doc, you might wanna take this one.”

(Someone was in her bed; beside her, above her, under her. Inside her. He imagines her fingers digging into the mattress as they rolled her onto her stomach, mouth trailing down the ladder of her spine. Their breaths intermingled in the seraphic glow of her hotel room)

Adler mechanically crosses the room and picks the receiver.

“Adler.”

(If he herds her away from prying eyes and pushes down the collar of her shirt, would he see the evidence there, taunting him? If he kisses her, would he taste them instead of her? )

"Perhaps," he says over the phone, his face hard. "But my decision is final. I'm sending Woods and Mason to Yamantau. They'll leave in a few days."

(Did they make her come?)

"Of course. Why do you think I chose them for this mission?"

(If she made them?)

“Most likely, but we're prepared for this- you know we are," Adler says, customer service polite, an old recording on a playback. "Right. Well, that concludes the matter then. Yeah, you have a wonderful day to yourself.”

Adler hangs up the telephone. Breathes out a sigh. He pinches the bridge of his nose for a few good seconds, before remembering that he has an audience.

"Oof. Sounds rough," comments Sims, dark eyes slanting in concern.

(Maybe she likes that, rough. Teeth biting the back of her shoulder, that sweet juxtaposition of pain and pleasure coursing through their veins, his hand curling around her throat from behind as she pants and mewls like-)

(But this isn’t about him. Never about him)

"That's one way to put it."

Someone else fucked her. It shouldn't leave an acrid taste in his mouth, but it does.

[asexualarchivist]

Happy new year! I am now going to project my food allergies onto jarchivist sims and there’s nothing you can do about it!

- He’s deathly allergic to peanuts and less deathly but also still very allergic to most other nuts so he just steers clear of all of them

- By the time canon starts tim and sasha already know - not because Jon told them, of course, but because Jon nearly died after accepting some birthday cake the other researchers had brought in for him, not realizing it had nuts in it, and said nothing until he was going into anaphylactic shock because he “didn’t want to be rude” <- direct quote

- Tim has used jons epipen on him a couple times, including that first time. Also head canon that Danny was allergic to fire ants so he knew how to use it :( (I love Tim seeing Jon as a younger brother figure it’s my favorite thing)

- When Jon eats something with peanuts in it, he knows immediately. He hates the smell and has to leave the room if someone is eating peanut butter near him

- Most of the time when he has a reaction, Jon assumes that he’s either having a panic attack or that there’s something hung in his throat

- Then he realizes: ah. This shit again. Right around the time he realizes it’s getting harder to breathe

- Usually he can manage by taking some allergy medication and waiting a few hours to see if it resolves on it’s own (note: I have done this on several occasions) (another note: idk if you SHOULD do this if you think you’re having a reaction but me and Jon are both stupid and stubborn)

- Most of these reactions are from him eating something that was cross contaminated and not from directly eating peanuts or nuts

- The reactions are FAR worse when he actually eats peanuts and that’s when the epipen comes out

- So when Martin finds out is the day after the Dog Incident, he comes in early with peanut butter cookies he made for everyone

- He hands one to Jon who takes it without looking or listening and then goes to pass them out to the others when Tim and sasha are like “...... you didn’t give this to Jon did you”

- And then Jon walks out with his face already starting to swell up and sprouting hives and says: “Tim, could you please stab me” while holding out the epipen

- So Martin ends up sending jon to the emergency room on his second day of work. Not ideal. Jons fine but Martin has never been more MORTIFIED.

- Jon is also pretty embarrassed about being carted off in the middle of the work day and tells Martin everything. Martin fully expects to be fired but Jon just says it’s fine and he appreciates the gesture, thank you

- “Did you just thank me for sending you to the hospital?”

- “The GESTURE, Martin, not the poor execution.”

- So Martin only brings Jon tea from then on

- I also really enjoy the idea of Martin telling every waiter at every restaurant “excuse me, he has a peanut allergy, will that be an issue?” Or whatever.

- What Jon would usually do upon going to a restaurant was just. Take his chances. And I mean it was usually fine.

- But now martin is like Full Mom Friend Mode

- One time Jon has a reaction bc something got cross contaminated, even after Martin asked them to cook his separately and use different tools

- And Martin goes into Full Bitch Mode at this waiter and jons just over here like please.... please it’s fine let’s just leave

- Martin is so huffy for the rest of the day

- “REALLY Jon, you could have DIED!”

- I imagine this happens throughout their entire relationship

- Also Martin has to use the epipen on Jon one time and hates hurting Jon so much, hates seeing him carted away via ambulance. He’s a complete wreck until he sees Jon again

- He rushes to hug him and maybe he’s crying a little, and he just begs “please don’t do that again.”

- And that’s the moment both of them realize: Oh, I Am In Love With Him

Also nothing bad happens in this au bc I said so

This became longer than I expected but if anyone has any Thoughts they can and should add them
