It's so funny to me that the fandom has come to see Hirano as a Sasamiya promoter of sorts because while he is, it took him some time to get accustomed to the idea of them together. And while he was never a hater Sasaki's actions towards Miyano certainly used to get on his nerves.
At first he was so worried and probably even felt a little guilty because (as mentioned in the following screenshot) because the only reason why Sasaki knows which class Miya is in, is thanks to him.
But like, that's not the face of a friend that's happy to play cupid and get their two acquaintances together. Not at all, that's the face of someone who puts his sempai-kouhai relationship with Miyano over his (pseudo) friendship with Sasaki.
Hirano from the first chapters would have jailed Sasaki if he were allowed to. (And he has his reasons, Sasaki has been something since the first chapters)
Anyway, the progression of events is really interesting.
He started, quite literally, shielding Miyano from Sasaki.
Then, he came to accept their relationship.
And at the end he really was rooting for them, to the point he ended up outright lying just so Miyano could meet Sasaki and they could talk it out and confess.

Can we see mechis full base please?
You most certainly can! Mechi put so much effort into it (or rather, Wire and Megabyte the constructoids have) that it would be a shame not to show it off.
Behold, the colony tour of Sparks!
Here's a quick overview of the whole base as it stands currently. Nice and simple with room for one colonist and nobody else.
(putting the rest under here so it's not clogging up people's dash)
Here's the Void Monolith, well-lit and surrounded by chain link fences... Just in case.
We have a cemetery outside the main wall, which came from a prefab that some traders sold us. Mechi added the flowers and grass, just as a show of respect for the dead. He doesn't hate dead people as much as everyone else, I assume, since they don't try to talk to him.
There's our containment facility with platforms for Ms Clarabelle the sightstealer, Susskind the ghoul, and Kitschy Flamingo the fingerspike. They are very well-behaved, and Mechi seems to enjoy studying them.
To the right is the hospital, with one bed, because only one person will ever need to use it (that's Mechi). Anyone else can make do with the "guest room," which we'll get to in a bit.
At the back of the hospital is the shelter where Cowgirl and Georgia, our tw wildebeest, sleep at night.
On the other side of the containment facility is our lovely picnic area and fountain, next to the psychic ritual spot in a suitably spooky countryside hedge-box.
Then we have a killbox, which has only recently been constructed. It seems to work well enough so far, but it hasn't really seen much action. I suppose we'll find out in time, though.
We have a power grid of solar panels and wind turbines overlooking our farm, with lots of nice plants to keep us sustained. The farm is tended by Astro, Mechi's agrihand mech.
Mechi likes sitting on the verandah to drink coffee sometimes, but it's nothing too fancy. We have a ground-penetrating scanner set up, but not much time to actually scan for stuff. I think we've found a fossil deposit since we set it up, but that's all.
The kitchen/dining in Sparks is pretty barebones. The most important part is the coffee machine, everything else is just sort of there.
Mechi has a lovely bedroom and a private bathroom, with a comfy cat tree for Charlotte and plenty of things to keep him entertained when he's not researching.
There's a crowded storeroom beside Mechi's bedroom, and outside is the stonecutting bench and the spot where Butter the boomalope sleeps alongside Belle and Mariana the sheep.
Mechi's research lab/robotics workshop/library is full of things to look at and workbenches to play with. It's his most-frequented room in the colony, I think.
The "guest room" we mentioned earlier, which has stuff needed for people to survive comfortably as long as they get frequent deliveries of nutrient paste. The top half of the room will eventually be home to our ripscanners and the like once we've defeated enough mech bosses to get to that stage.
And finally, the "temple", which is just a hastily cobbled room to make Mechi stop griping that he didn't have one. He's got a neural supercharger (which he uses every day) and a biosculptor pod (which he never uses) and that seems to have appeased him for now.
And there you have it! The colony at Sparks, home to one snappy mechanitor, a lot of robots, and the few pets that are allowed to stay without being shipped off to Arwell the first chance we get 😁

kyman headcanon #1
Cartman fell first, Kyle fell harder
Basically Cartman's subconsciously hadda crush on Kyle since they was like nine or so. An open secret throughout classmates and the town in general. He's more comfortable and public about ts as we've seen in the panderverse special, s16 ep7, and tho not kyman specific-- sometimes in the earlier szns Cart'd drop an "i love you guys" to be met with a 😐 from the other three. But yea slower buildup to the realization until it's gone way too far to back out
Kyle can't help knowin that. He choose to gaslight himself to avoid confrontin his feelings on the matter. Won't acknowledge any connotations. Only thin Cartman-related he'll dwell on is 'omfg i hate that guy'. Obvious hints is ignored straight after being picked up. When he finally does grasp the fact they both gay for eachother, Kyle has a whole fifth life crisis
Issa long process; and despite his own impatience, Cartman'll wait years if thats what it takes

Hey Simlicious!
I know Simblr appreciation day has long well passed, but I do want to pass something along as well :)
I really adore your CC, the patterns you make are precisely what I'm always looking for and get really excited when you release new ones! It's absolutely MAGIC to me how you get such difficult patterns (like tartan and wool) into actual TS3 patterns! I still have no idea how you do it lol! Not only are your patterns great, your tutorials still to this day help me out when I forgot about things.
I remember back in the days I was this wee-modder, I barely knew how to do anything, and I'd ask these big ts3 tumblrs for help... though in those days, it was quite hard to get proper help on tumblr.
I was honestly getting more and more cautious to ask for help after the many rejections or ignored messages, till I reached out to you for help. That help that you showed me inspired me to try to help people as much as possible too! That was precisely what this community needed and you showed it right there and then :)
Honestly, I'd even go as far that you got me where I am currently and I can't thank you enough for holding out a hand when I was feeling so desperate in those days. Thank you for that ❤
I can't wait to see what you got cooking up for 2024!
Thank you so much for these words. They mean so much to me that they made me cry - in a good way!
I feel so honored. This is everything a teacher could ever wish for!
IMO, a good teacher encourages learning to help yourself. This is a huge reason why I explain not only the how but the why. The hows are fundamental to developing further curiosity about how things work. Combined with the ability to recognize good practices and bad ones and the ability to learn from your own mistakes, you have all the tools needed to learn more on your own.
I'm so glad my approach worked for you like it did! It is so satisfying to teach people like you who have a big thirst for knowledge. I noticed early on how well you picked things up and dove into other rabbit holes on your own (I'm so impressed how well you know the innards of s3pe, for example). Sorry if this is a bit cringe, but I am so proud of you and how far you've come 🥳 You also pay your knowledge forward by writing great tutorials yourself and by building a whole new simblr community.
As for the next year, I actually want to teach more and create new tutorials! It means so much to me to be able to share my knowledge and experience and help people create their own Sims content, to see how their work improves over time.
And we all profit from more cool CC after all 😂
