Christina James: I feel like Jem Harrington (Stranger Things OC) would fall for her. They both seem to be scientifically minded, so that would be a bonus. Also, there are times when Jem can be a massive coward, and I think Christina knowing that she has to save herself, and probably some of those around her, would balance him out to some degree.

Chelsea Bright: I feel like Monty Sanderson, if he was more age appropriate, (A Discovery of Witches OC) might fall for her. I’m not sure why – I mean, I feel as though he might do anything he could to make her laugh, and he’d probably be a little confused by all the singing too, but also he’s the type of person that would join in.

Elena Barnes: I feel Elena needs someone calm, someone patient, someone who can also deal with her anger as well though and honestly I don’t really have many who fit that. But, looking back over OCs and things, I think that Allie (Riverdale OC) might work for her. I think she’d be calm enough, and have enough naïve awe about her that might just help break Elena’s armour a little.

Celeste Nichols: So, I think that Cesca (iZombie OC) would actually be quite an interesting pairing for Celeste. For all Cesca’s hardness, I feel like Celeste has a softness to her which would be quite nice. A shared understanding of loneliness and orphanages might help build the foundation; a love of found families, but I think they’d soon fall for each other far more quickly than they were expecting – especially Cesca.

𝐁𝐘 𝐑𝐎𝐘𝐀𝐋 𝐃𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐄, the House of Verstappen announces the betrothal of its youngest daughter, Princess Cecilia Verstappen, to Prince Charles of House Leclerc

“my hand was the one you reached for, all throughout the 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐫.”

— taylor swift, the great war

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒 𝐂𝐄𝐂𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐀 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐍 values her freedom above all else. She's been a wandering spirit, a lone wolf, if you will, for as long as she can remember. Her heart and soul belongs in the wind between the trees and on the rushing waters of the river that flows through her home. It most certainly doesn't belong to the young prince of her father's rival Kingdom, and, she swears, it never will.

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐋𝐄𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐑𝐂 doesn't exactly have marriage on his mind at fourteen years of age either, but, as he has learnt over the years, the needs of his family and his people always have to come first. If getting married to the annoying, spoiled girl who taunts him and runs away whenever he tries to speak to her is his duty, then he swears he will do it. Albeit reluctantly.

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐂𝐄𝐂𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐀 are out of options. In a world where their two kingdoms are constantly on the brink of war, they have no choice but to make their less than favourable situation work. Yet, as time passes, and secrets are revealed, they discover that perhaps they aren't so different after all; and maybe, just maybe, they need each other just as much as their kingdoms need them.

Ain't No Grave

"Do you actually want her dead at the end of this?"

"He has killed for less. And she deserves to die.”

Valentino planted the spade into the freshly turned dirt next to him, leaning on the handle as he stared into the yawning darkness below. Scuttling grey clouds covered the moon, bathing the entire area in shadows. During life, it might have made him uneasy to be surrounded by the black with no way of knowing when an enemy might appear and put a bullet in his brain.

Shadows had become a refuge since his death, however. A melding between the physical and the spiritual that settled the Beast in his bones in a way nothing else could. Except for blood. Thirst burned in the back of his throat as if he’d swallowed battery acid, and he wondered not for the first - and not for the last - time where his wife was. Bitter anger gnawed at him, but he forced those thoughts aside before he did something drastic, and focused on the matter at hand.

Exhaling a rough bundle of smoke, he stubbed his cigarette out in the dirt, then leaned to jump down into the open grave and straddle the back end of the coffin. It was blue, like her favorite color, like her magick, like the lights of Embraced. Hesitating, he rested his hand on the edge where it was sealed shut. It wasn’t the first time he had been privy to the decay of a body, but the sight - and stench - was something one couldn’t quite prepare for no matter how many times they’d experienced it.

****

“Dad! Wake up! It’s time to wake up!” 

Childish shouting rang tinnily through his ears while the molasses of Torpor began to ease away from his limbs and minds in sluggish drips. He couldn’t move just yet, couldn’t speak, but he could feel a tiny hand shaking his shoulder. 

“Hurry! I wanna show you what Miss Britta bought me!” Another shake of a small hand punctuated the words.

He felt the prick of his fangs against his lips, a deep hunger rooted in his chest that accompanied the sensual murmur of his Beast. The little creature disturbing him would make for a good snack - 

The dull shadows of the ceiling greeted his gaze as he opened his eyes, turning them down to catch sight of the small blonde girl bouncing at the edge of his bedside. Warm and alive with suntanned skin, gleaming gold hair braided back and still the chubby cheeks of youth. She clutched a pair of thin books littered with foliage and butterflies on the cover, thrusting them at him. 

“My apologies, Mr. Bellerose. I looked away to ensure the door was locked, and she scampered off,” Britta’s voice sounded from the doorway. Looking contrite, she gestured at the little girl to come back. “Come along Alicia. Let him wake up first…” 

“No, it’s alright,” he answered, pulling himself up to sit against the headboard. 

Alicia bounced on her toes, then scrambled onto the bed to spread her books out across his legs. “Miss Britta took me to the butterflies at the zoo today, and they had these there. There’s lots of pictures, but there are facts too!” 

Valentino picked one up, examining the glossy cover full of monarchs. It still held the scent of cotton candy from Alicia’s sticky fingers, and the aroma of ink on paper. 

“Mr. Bellerose, he will be arriving shortly.” Britta reminded him.

Valentino felt Alicia stiffen where she had tucked herself beneath his arm, quieting immediately. 

He sighed. “Have Isaac entertain him for a few moments if I’m not out by then.” 

Alicia lit up beside him as Britta nodded, and departed. 

He cracked open the first book to examine the first few pages absently.

Half listening to her chatter about her day, it took him an extra second to realize she had asked him a question. 

“Will you read these to me? For my bedtime story?” Alicia asked again, looking up with hopeful blue eyes.

“You don’t want Isaac to read to you tonight like usual?” Valentino moved at a mortal’s pace, easing out of bed.

“No! I want these ones!” Already pouting, Alicia huffed at him.

He silently assented, hauling the little girl up to balance on his arm, collecting the books with his other hand. He could read to Alicia for a little while, until she fell asleep. Then he could ready himself for Jean-Pierre’s arrival, with Alicia safely out of view and awareness of the elder LaSombra.

“Just one, Alicia.” 

****

Inhaling, he pried open the coffin. Despite not breathing, he could still feel the wave of foul rot and decay brush his skin with a putrid humidity as the air rushed out. Blinking away a sting, he stared down at the coffin’s contents. The flesh had turned a sickly brown and black, like old bruising before it turned a nasty yellow. Reasonably he knew it was because the veins were deteriorating, and it would be only a few short years before the grave wax would fill the coffin.

“You poor bastard. Wonder where she picked you up.” Whoever was in the coffin, he didn’t recognize them. It could have been someone Alicia had plucked right off the sidewalk one day. His grip on the coffin door tightened. 

The day he and Isaac had buried Alicia had been a bleak one. Her broken body made to look beautiful and untouched again, tucked away in the white satin of the coffin Britta had chosen because he hadn’t been able to.

Fighting the urge to rip the corpse out that was spoiling the final resting place of Alicia, he relaxed his grip on the coffin’s lid. He was surprised to find numerous splinters buried in his fingers and palm. It brought him back to reality.

There was a body in the coffin, but it wasn’t Alicia’s. Despite having buried her in that coffin, and in that grave. 

“Looks like you’re missing something though,” he remarked as he pulled out a small amulet from the pocket of his coat. 

It didn’t look like much. A simple river pebble, with markings etched onto it. It looked like something Alicia had been using to practice her glyphs on, like she’d used to do as a child. Yet, he’d found it on the corpse masquerading as Alicia the night they had finally killed Nathaniel, even though the last time he’d seen it, it had been in the pocket of Alicia’s body when he had buried it.

“Always the clever one. Stealing corpses to make them look like you so you could be everywhere at once,” he spoke, stowing the stone away. He would have Yelena look at it later on, when she had time to spare from the other tasks he’d set her to. “Too clever.”

She was playing the game with a masterful stroke, pressing her advantages and cutting her losses when needed. Exactly as she had been taught. Maybe if she had been allowed to be more of a child, rather than being forced to grow up so quickly, things would have been different. Or if he had managed to stop the fire that took her parents. Or, had simply been better. 

His world, the world of the Kindred, was no place for a mortal, let alone a little girl he’d taken in because she’d looked so much like his own dead daughter.

“Everyone has a weakness, Val.” Old words from his Sire echoed in his head.

He had too many, and the girl he’d raised was one of them. He’d killed for a lot less, but he couldn’t kill this one.

IX Landgraab

Welcome to IX Landgraab, home of the prominent Fengs!

I purposely put the Fengs back where they were in the original City Living save file. Living next to their political rival, Peter Montgomery and his family definitely leads to some tension. Peter and Alicia were getting loud and frisky in the shower while I was play testing and Victor took the opportunity to scream at him for being so loud.

Although the wallpaper, flooring, doors, etc. match XIII Landgraab, I finally broke free of my self-imposed CC constraints because Victor and Lily would spare no expense to have their apartment furnished just the way they like. I included some Alpha CC artwork by @cowbuild and used swatches that fit the "city living" vibe.

When they're not working away in their respective offices, Victor and Lily spend most of their time dancing or smooching in the living room, enjoying cocktails and trashing on their mutual adversaries.

I also pulled a butler down from The Gallery and added in game (because one didn't auto generate to the lot when I hired one) to do all of the cooking and chores. He also has his own scantily furnished bedroom and bathroom. There's also a daily maid that comes so neither Victor nor Lily have to lift a finger.

My favorite part of this build is the atrium looking down into the living room and the large floor to ceiling windows. The view looks gorgeous in a blizzard, so I'm sure it will look even more beautiful in when the snow melts.

Tray Files (including Packs Used + CC List) are below the break.

A couple of weeks ago I asked about people’s favorite book or books they read this year. Between Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and discord, I have a list of 123 books in no particular order that my friends and family loved this year. If it was a series then I listed the first book. Each star is an additional recommendation. I haven’t read all of these, they may or may not reflect my personal opinions, though my favorite books are on the list too. The most recommended books were How Far The Light Reaches by Sabrina Imbler, one or all of the Murderbot books by Martha Wells, and Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki, because if there’s one thing my friends have in common across platforms, it’s that you’re all nerds (affectionate). Enjoy, and I hope you find your new favorite book!
