a little update on what i've been doing in the sims lately! don't mind the huge walls of text for once i'm saying things in the post instead of the tags lmao
matthias's scars are very slowly coming along! i really love his left leg scar but can't really show all of it because i'd have to get him naked for that and it also wraps around his leg. um, but it starts at the side of his hip and carves down at an angle before abruptly following a steep line to the back of his calf. it looks gnarly which is exactly what i'm trying to achieve with matthias's scars! i'm also pretty pleased with the scars on his wrists and side, but the scar he has on the back of his right leg is... a little too crunchy? i don't know, it just looks weird. it's kind of hard to get the scars i'm making to look good on matthias's body. especially scars that're smaller or delicate... like the instant loss of quality makes me want to chew on exposed wires. but that's where i've left off on them! his arms and back are where he has the most damage but my god... it's SO difficult trying to get scars to look nice over his biceps and back muscles. also the hair ties i made for him look nice on his wrist <3
theo's apartment is also finally in the works. i've got the base layout finished and a general idea of what all the rooms are for. building and decorating isn't actually that daunting to me, surprisingly—instead, what's actually causing me a lot of grief is the realization that this is too big for theo to really be comfortable in. so, i was thinking, okay, that's fine, just get rid of three of the rooms and scale down the living area. only to pause and take into account the fact that theo's parents pay for this. they're controlling and also very big on appearance so i'm not sure they'd be fine with their son living in a shoebox—i mean, what would people say if word got to them that he doesn't even have a walk-in closet? like... that's the kind of people they are. but i wanted theo to feel comfortable in his apartment so now i'm feeling conflicted on how i want it to look. i'm definitely going to scale down the bedrooms and the living area... but it'll still feel too big to theo. there are just too many corners for him to ever fully let his guard down... which, hm... well, maybe that fits the story more anyway.
this is his general aesthetic for the interior btw... i want it to be brown, cream, and green all throughout the apartment with splashes of orange (this mix between his old dorm and his childhood home but with something new blending it together). i really wanted him to have stained glass windows in his kitchen and bathroom but couldn't find any </3 so sadly that's not happening. and i need to find a nice curio cabinet for his collection of bells... along with bells too lmao. but that's where i'm at so far! i'm seriously going to just sit here in build mode for hours just... trying to figure out how to make this place more comfortable for theo. like it's supposed to be where he feels safe but it's just too much rn.

something ive come to notice now after watching more and more of michael sheen's movies is that his performance as aziraphale is completely unlike any other character he plays. he built that fucker from the ground up. the voice, the mannerisms... very rarely does he even move his face like he does in most of his other roles. there are glimpses of it, but aziraphale is just. SO different. like it's crazy
literally the only time in go that my brain recognizes aziraphale as being played by michael is when they switched bodies in season 1. so, when it's NOT aziraphale. and i think that says something

I want to make a post about how smart Gideon is but am bad at making posts rn. But I’ll get to it because I feel like defending my darling girl. She’s smart! She’s so smart she’s just thrown into a situation in GtN where she is not given the tools she needs to understand everything going on around her!
Gideon so often gets done so dirty by a lot of slices of the fandom in terms of painting her as like, dumb muscle etc. when there is SO much more to her character. And I can’t help but think that a lot of the time there’s an element of people being weird about butch women in terms of that treatment. And even more so and intersecting with that, I feel like racism, conscious or otherwise, undeniably plays a role in this treatment of her in many instances. It’s not my place to speak further on that (and I’m sure people who are much more qualified to talk about this have been talking about it and probably getting largely ignored a lot of the time), but it’s a thought that’s popped up for me and has been knocking around my head a lot lately

What's in my bag?
Theo: uses his college backpack to lug around his things. normally keeps his bag full of study materials, but there are glimpses of him in his journal, his addictions, and the wildflowers he takes home.
Matthias: doesn't use a bag. he’ll keep his phone with him but there’s little else he’d have on him.
tagged by @rollingsim and i seriously loved this picrew so thank you!!! gonna tag @wldestluv-rs, @stinkrascal, @omgkayplays, @rottengurlz, @void-imp, @raiiny-bay, @fizzytoo, @bunmou, @birdietrait, @stellarfalls, and @pralinesims!

Which color looks best on William Zabka?
Oh my god. Anon. How…how can you expect me to choose?
Except of course I have an answer for you. Of course I do.
See, Billy looks great in white.
Also great in dark blue.
Various blues, red accents…really brings out his eyes.
But lemme tell you something, and it’s lucky for us, because it’s most of what he wears…
BILLY
LOOKS
BEST
IN
BLACK
I rest my case.
(Thank you for the ask, anon. This was so much fun.)
