// Extras under the cut - below is very long, so open w/ caution if you don't wanna scroll a lot 😭

This has taken the piss outta me (albeit fun), so i'm kinda just gonna explain how I think the featured line in particular is akin to the OC/Ship and not the entire song... as much as I'd love to 😭 Also it's just SUPER hard (for me) to find songs that I relate to my OCs, lyrics as well so skdjhnsjk

Roo's Song Oil & Water by Origami Button "When did I become like the ones I never thought I'd welcome in my home"

The above line in particular is quite literally Roo in the current story/character arc- He's looking at himself from a third person view and going "Oh. I am what I hate." He's looking at his old self, in college, and how he treated Leo, to now, looking at his present self and seeing the way he creeps on Leo, how he clings to him despite being several states over. Roo looks at the progression of his stalker-ish behavior, his obsession, how it went from just general clinginess that Leo could bear, to something completely unbearable after 7 years of no contact, it saddens him. So taking it quite literally, if he was at his own door and he knew how awful he was, he would slam the door on himself. A painful self reflection for him :')

Leo's Song Truth or Dare by Ricky Montgomery "Hiding in the closet, trying not to vomit, didn't even want it"

The entire first verse for this song can be applicable to Leo. As a teenager (15-16), Leo went HEAVY on drugs as a form of escapism from his parents, of course they'd always find him and get on his ass HARD for doing that shit. After a while of being sober, Leo started going to house parties, great idea- Flash forward to his third house party, and he finally cut his year long sober streak for drugs. as many as he could fit in his body. He had terrible influences around him so they encouraged him to do this shit, it didn't take long for his body to feel the god awful effects of taking so many drugs, so he ended up in the bathroom for a while- He tried to hold back the vomit because he was,,, partially enjoying his high, but he couldn't hold it back for long and ended up passing out, but not before nearly gutting himself from vomiting so much. Cut forward in time, and people got worried, bashed open the bathroom door and found Leo's unconscious body slumped over the toilet 🙃 Obv he came out fine, but it's a major moment in his life, because looking back on it, he realizes that wasn't what he wanted, he just wanted attention, he wanted to be cool, he wanted to be rebellious, but he didn't want to (nearly) kill himself. The render isn't one-to-one with the situation, but the lyrics are accurate so :3

Onia's Song Bloodstream by Soccer Mommy Scene used in render "Now a river runs red from my knuckles into the sink and there's a pale girl staring through the mirror at me"

Overall, the song talks about how the artist (Soccer Mommy) has lost her childhood innocence and how she wants to go back to her childhood and putting Onia's Sheep in Wolf's clothing motif aside, Onia misses being a child, and misses not knowing the pain and burden of being the complete opposite of what her parents wanted, so she spirals over this a lot, and like the lyrics say, "a river runs red from my knuckles into the sink," She tends to lean towards harming herself, in this case, her hands, and her knuckles- I can't draw or simulate blood in either blender or GIMP, so the red light is supposed to simulate the blood-sodden sink that she's standing over, and of course, "pale girl," is Onia, she's staring at herself, but additionally I like to think she's staring past the mirror, or staring through it (wink wink), she's spacing out and thinking about who she should've been, or who she could've been.

Hero's Song Following Eyes by Soccer Mommy "An awful feeling started creeping over me and what I saw was like no horror I had seen"

I'm keeping this short and sweet. It's not easy to find a song (that I like) that's about being haunted or cursed so. I had to re-use her song from her intro post, which isn't bad, but I did hope to find a new song kdsjhnsjk Anyways. Hero's cursed, pretty much anywhere she goes, she is forced to perceive ~the horrors~, sometimes she's forced into a blank space, a void (SOMETIMES,,, not a lot,,, rarely moreso), where she'll be tormented for who even knows how long, this moment in particular, she was walking along this catwalk in the dark, she eventually felt something that felt similar to someone dragging their fingers up your spine, in a moment of fear, she turned around and just. saw. She looked onto this,,, being, what she saw was "like no horror I had seen,,," Although to be fair, the creature isn't all that horrifying (which in my defense.. I'm a blender novice so </333)

The Hiraeth Song Nomu by Good Kid "Four eyes entwined draw four separate lines and none of them point to you"

I think this song overall is a perfect example of Roo and Leo's relationship both after Leo's confession and after Roo tried to reconnect with Leo. After Leo confessed, he tried to keep their relationship going, but it didn't work out, so he gave up (Roo didn't realize Leo was pulling such a weight and he just let their friendship fall out) After Roo tried to reconnect (aka the CURRENT storyline), Roo has been trying to keep things together and has been trying to make things work, but Leo has long-since given up on their friendship as a whole. Now in terms of the lyric above; Post-Confession, every conversation they had together would not be the same, they couldn't look each other in the eyes, their eyes would connect momentarily and separate almost immediately; Nowadays, if they WERE to be living together or near each other, they just would NOT be able to talk to each other, because Leo would be fed up with Roo and trying to avoid as much eye contact and general verbal+physical contact as possible with him. Roo, on the other hand, is just terrible with eye contact so he would have a terrible time trying to engage in eye contact with Leo.

The Ithanel / It's All Wrong Song From Eden by Hozier "Babe there's something broken about this but I might be hoping about this oh what a sin"

Ithuriel and Nanel's entire relationship is inherently toxic, they are not toxic to each other, but the underlying (or moreso, the OVERWHELMING OVERLYING) dangers of this relationship makes it toxic, broken in a way. Nanel risks her life going to see Ithuriel outside of work-related interactions and Ithuriel risks her life by just. seeing, talking to and loving Nanel. Whether they know (they do) or care (they dont) about these dangers, they still want this relationship, they live on, literal, prayers that they are not caught and that they can continue to love each other in peace, but overall, their relationship, in the eyes of the heavenly council (ehhh W.I.P term for IAW lore stuff), is a sin, and nothing but a sin.

Ithuriel's Song What You Mean by Rome Hero Foxes "Cause every little god damn thing you do makes me wanna get close to you"

The lyrics speak for themselves... Ithuriel is very dedicated to Nanel, and literally every waking moment of seeing and knowing Nanel drives Ithuriel up the walls because she loves her so much.

Nanel's Song Future Me Hates Me by The Beths "It's getting dangerous, I could get hurt, I know, I've counted up the cons, they far outweight the pros."

This is semi-foreshadowing, but Nanel knows that her and Ithuriel's relationship is forbidden, wrong (not cuz its gay necessarily,, 😭), and the way Ithuriel's heavenly role works means that their relationship status and every interaction outside of a required interaction is a risky game of one or both of them being punished and sentenced to death. But ! Nanel loves Ithuriel wayyyy too much to let how insanely dangerous their relationship is to get in the way of them loving and being with e/o.

Nirvana's Song 1999 by Beabadoobee "And I'm not wasting time again, closure instead of s^x, and I'm not wasting time again" Idk if I need to censor s^x but i am justttt in case...

Oof, Nirvana... Nirvana has always been sxually active, she's always had one-night-stands with other men, she's tried to continue things after that ONS, but it never works, she's tried to have relationships with women, but they just use her for s^x. She's tired of wasting time with people who just want her for her body, she's tired of s^x, she just wants, well, closure, she wants someone who will love her for her, she wants a relationship without s^x, or at least isn't s^x-focused, she just wants to know someone will love her past her body. Although aforementioned is all just a habit so she will unfortunately end up right back where she started and continue this uncomfortable and sad spiral.

The Sheep in Wolf's Clothing Onia Dhithos - -

"I will pull at my horns and bruise my flesh until I am born anew, my chest is too warm, I spew warm honey where I want muck. tar. I want to bear the teeth that my father and mother bore. These teeth are not sufficient. I want a bite, and I want it to be more than my words. I want to bite. I want to be the Wolf."

[youredreamingofroo]

well now that I'm better, I just wanna say that giving Onia red undertones in any render is everything to me. It represents how she feels, deep down, that she's wrong (red being associated with wrong), and that the green overtones are her. That she's right like this, to mask like this.

The red undertones could also be interpreted as the viewer saying she's wrong for seeing her true self like that. Green is also just her color so the green overtones *could* just be nothing :3c

[youredreamingofroo]

List 5 facts about a favorite sim of yours, and send this to 10 simblrs whose sims you adore ♥♥♥

THANK YOU VEN!! 🥹🥹

hmm... Who will we put in the spotlight this time...

Onia Dhithos, The Wolf

Why not :3c

1, Onia's motif is the opposite of the common "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" motif(?)... hence the caption of her introductory post "Sheep in Wolf's Clothing," Onia loathes her sweet heart, and she tends to put a cold act on, in a ruthless loop of attempts to stop being kind hearted. "I want to bear the teeth that my father and mother bore." Onia was born under two parents who are completely different to her, ruthless and infinitely less kind-hearted than her.

2, Continuing from the last one, Here's a rough outline of Onia's parents; Onia's Mother, Dromis Dhithos, is a Minotaur who works as an Assassin and kills for sport. Onia's Father, Qhynsas Dhithos, is a Bucentaur who works as a bloodthirsty executioner, often noted as having no mercy. Additionally, She has no siblings, after Dromis and Qhynsas had Onia, they anticipated her following in their heartless steps, but when they witnessed the swelling of a sweet heart in their already out-of-place daughter (I'll tap in on this in the next fact), they feared having more "soft" children and did not conceive further.

3, "Out-of-place daughter"... Onia was not born a Minotaur, or Bucentaur like her parents, She's also not a hybrid, She was born a Satyress, Her parents don't exactly understand how it's even possible for her to not be born like them, but,,, it is possible, which is terribly unfortunate for Onia, as this is the beginning of her... attempted villain origin story 😭

4, Onia wears braces, which is due to the fact that during one of her many spirals, she began removing her own teeth (yes. literally ripping them out with pliers), she didn't remove all of them, but a good chunk of them. She had to get a lot of her teeth replaced, but after getting them replaced, she went down ANOTHER spiral, and resorted to removing her teeth... again :) So she got them replaced. AGAIN. And this time, they put braces on her teeth to keep her from removing them again (basically making it harder/more painful to remove her teeth). So far, she hasn't tried to remove them. yet. nyehehe

5, A lot of Onia's piercings are her little fidget toy, but additionally, she likes to... "tease" herself with them, by pulling on them as if she were going to rip them out, she never does, but she always tugs on them roughly just enough to spike her pain receptors, but not enough to injure herself, it freaks a lot of people out when she's in public LMAO

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 for Onia and Hero! 🤔 for any of your OCs :DD

Thank you anon!

Questions from: Details about OCs

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family with Mother, Father, Son and Daughter — how many people are in your oc's immediate family? how many people are in your oc's extended family? do they have aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, etc? who in their family are they closest with? are they close with their birth family, or do they have a found family?

Onia only has a mother and father in her immediate family! So two people. In terms of extended family... Mother Dhithos (her name and father d's name will be revealed later) has 2 siblings, both of them are older and are her sisters! Father Dhithos has 4 siblings, he has three older brothers and one younger sister. So 6 Auncles! I believe by now, Onia's extended family would be anywhere from (not counting auncles) 6-18 (averaging 1-3 kids per Aunt/Uncle). In total making her extended family 12-24 people! (including auncles) Onia DOES have grandparents! 4 grandparents! A grandma and grandpa on both her mother and father's side. She is not close with any of her family,, ahaha,,, she doesn't see her extended family a lot, if at all, and she is incredibly envious of her parents, which makes her distance herself from her parents. She doesn't have found family, and she isn't close to her birth family.

🤔 Thinking face — what are some of your oc's quirks/mannerisms?

Roo talks with his hands, the happier he is, the wider and more expressive his hand-talking is, the sadder he is, he becomes a lot less hand expressive, his hand-talking becomes aggressive and "sharp" and angular when he's upset/angry.

Leo will subconsciously draw out the lines in his hands, it's moreso a fidget thing he does when he's antsy or anxious, he also maps out the shapes and lines of things around the world in his mind (or with his hands if nobody is around), which has just become a quirk that he does also subconsciously, but he does this no matter what, regardless of how antsy or anxious he is.

Nirvana clicks her tongue! Akin to clicking your tongue to get the attention of an animal, she usually does this in the midst of conversation in replacement of an ellipses ("..."), not always, but it's becoming naturally more reoccurring than it used to. Not a tic, but this quirk kind of acts in the same way a tic/stim does.

Hero is naturally anxious at all times, so she constantly looks over her shoulder, whether she's in her room, out walking or in the middle of conversation, she'll make sure she's constantly aware of her surroundings.

Onia draws out her "S"'s! Like how talking snakes in media will go "Ssssnakessss" aksdjhk The researchers at the OC Labs (Me) are still figuring out how she managed to pick this quirk up.

[youredreamingofroo]

oh my god... I just remembered something I saw a while ago which was (not verbatim) "drawing in what I think is my ocs' art style"... maybe ill do that.. :3c

[ I ended up ranting a LOT abt my OCs' art styles and their art content below the cut, so. yea. 🧍‍♂️ ]

Roo's would probably be soft, maybe a little rough because he's not 100% into art, I kinda see his being akin to Arthur's art style when drawing animal sketches.

Leo's would be veryyyyy rough, stray bits of lead/graphite around his lines cuz he doesn't know about pencil pressure, he would struggle with straight lines and be very against having curved lines (so a lot of his drawings come out with sharp edges)

Nirvanas art style would be flowy, as aggressive as she is, she's got gentle hands (when she's not feeling murderous ahsjabs), and would feel a sort of peer pressure from herself to have a flowy art style (applicable to her hand writing, I could see her having absurd cursive)

Hero would have a VERY simple art style, but I think the content she draws would not be reflected well in her art style, very... grotesque and haunting stuff. Aside from her grotesque content, imagine something akin to... a little more sophisticated stick figures? Idk how to word it sjsjsj

Onia's art style would be very... back and forth. When drawing in her own time and by herself, her art style reflects her soft heart, soft pencil lines, and maybe a little shaky, I think her own personal drawings would be a little vent-y? So she gets emotional when drawing (hence "shaky"). But when she's drawing for someone else or drawing in public, her lines and art style *attempt* to reflect her harsh mask, more angular lines, frequently breaking her lead (she silently gets embarrassed for doing this btw) and having much darker and harsher lines overall ig

-

I know I already kinda explained what my ocs WOULD draw in some of their blocks, but I'm gonna do a (hopefully) better explanation below;

Roo wouldn't do anything extreme, probably just some basic, simple sketches of shapes with eyes, or little creatures, like cats (similar to me when doodling)

I don't think Leo ever really draws, maybe just once in a while, in which case he just draws stupid and inconsistent patterns (just doodling essentially). I can see him drawing "vent art" when hes angry, which would just be INCREDIBLY aggressive lines and doodles and words like "i hate this" or something along those lines, reflecting his rage- BUT if he WERE to be drawing anything, I do think he'd be doing anatomy practice, he wouldn't apply that anatomical knowledge anywhere, it would moreso be a form of having something to do when he's coming down from a fit of rage (strange coping mechanism but okay).

Nirvana would draw. Women. I can see her drawing the most beautiful and diverse women, in an attempt to manifest the love of her life (that "love" being any woman to ever exist), she would go into an unexplainable amount of detail for no reason, quite literally sculpting in 2D/on paper.

Hero, like I said, would draw just. grotesque. disturbing things, I think she draws less for the fun of it, but moreso to record and jot down the absolute HORRORS that she's forced to perceive. Also her curse absolutely takes control over her when she's drawing sometimes, and draws disturbing imagery of her being k worded (not to get graphic or whatever)

Onia does not draw for fun either, she would (on her own) only draw to vent the frustrations of having to mask and being born the way she was, she also (on her own again) draws self portraits of herself, which have, slowly, gotten progressively further and further from what she actually looks like, making herself look a lot meaner or "beat up". In public, she just doodles, she does nottttt like drawing in public, sometimes her doodles turn into unprompted portraits of others in public, mainly people she finds interesting looking, or people who give off a certain vibe that she's aiming for, essentially jotting that person down to take note of their attire/vibe so she can attempt to copy it.

[youredreamingofroo]

I forgot to share them but here's some Before / Afters for this post :)

I learned how to do lens flares and had to fight the urge to not overuse this new found knowledge LMAOO
