Oh we’re close. Oh we are so close to done with this household so let’s do the next two days! Double-checking Harrison’s stats and all of his character values I want, I got! High mannered, responsible and empathic. Nice nice nice! We’re good for tomorrow. Anyway, it’s Talk Like a Pirate Day! Everyone in this household loves talk like a pirate day. Omar and Roxana are childish enough to adore it as much as the kids and Harrison just likes gabbing. Anyway, now everyone can go and volunteer together! Hooray!

Let’s see...Omar wants to mentor a kid and helping with homework would count for that. Let’s go with Emile. She’s the lazy one after all and he sorta wants to whip her into responsible shape. And actual shape but that’s for teen-dom. And now it’s just a lotta being social and chatting with each other. Because it’s talk like a pirate day and ya gotta talk first!

Ohp, Harrison asked for advice. Okay, don’t lower responsibility, empathy or OH what was the last one!? Manners! Very important that one. Picked the choice that went for manners up and emotional control down. And with some chatter, Harrison, Omar, and Roxana now have the pirate tradition finished. Hooray.

Ohohoho! One of the people that Roxana dislikes and wants to make an enemy out of is walking down the street! And so we shall! Become enemies that is. Next is the thirst management. I bet all of these plasma packs do pile up but eh. Selena is on the computer, working on that typing game for her aspiration. Ah. Omar still needs to mentor a kid, thanks to not being actually able to help with homework thanks to having low relationships with the kids. Hey Harrison! It’s time to work out! Let’s see. Emile wants to watch a movie, she does so and now she’s hungry. And has the whim for pizza! ...alas pizza is not showing up. I see a stall for spring seasonal food at least. We can order off of that! Cupcake time! And then snoozing for her. Omar wants to make a drawing, can easily do. Harrison...to chat with Moria Fryes some more. Can also do that. Oh and Talk Like a Pirate Day rolled over so everyone is in a delighted mood. Hmm. Before I go off and say hello to Moria, let’s check-

Neighborhood Watch!

Forgotten Hollow: The Swaminathan household recently moved in.

Windenburg: The Castillo household has moved in.

Right, now we travel over to the Fyres household! To say hi to Moria! But then my eyes are drawn over to someone else.

Morgan Fyres was one of Harrison’s flings way back when she was still a teen. It’s one of the reasons I’m actually bringing him fully up into Young Adult-hood. Because I see that two potentially interesting love interests, her and Cassandra Goth, are both young adults and I want to play around with that some. Anyway, I’d figure it’s time to befriend Moria some more so I go and set those two up on a chess table. And now it’s time for pure social spam as I try to actually befriend her. Of which, we do so! Next whims are to gain that promotion and to flirt with a fellow teen. ...on the one hand I would continue with these solo adventures with Harrison. On the other hand, birthday part at 6PM. Granted it’s 11AM now. We have time. Annnd I brought over the wrong boy to flirt with. Time to bring the right boy over. Alright, flirtation done. NOW I should probably head back home. Because I’m going to have to deal with thirst management anyway and I want that done before the party.

Well, first thing that catches my eye is the egg hunt tradition for my Spring Day holiday that's also today. Don’t know if I can do the Flower Bunny but I can do that one at least. Anyway, it’s now party time! I have no goals so I can do whatever I wish!

So turns out, a good way to gather everyone at a party is to just open presents with every guest watching you. Nice! He only got three gifts. A gnome, a carrot and a turquoise. Eh, not great but ah well. And now Harrison is a Young Adult! I had thought of his trait a long while ago. He’s the Ambitious type! Got that drive to succeed! And thus does everyone just hang out for a bit. Humorously, all the vampires are glum thanks to all of the broken relationships because they hiss so much. Alas! Anyway, the true food for vampires shall be made. A whole bunch of plasma fruit salad! And on that note, we end our time with these vampires. THANK. GOD. But first!

Neighborhood Watch!

Oasis Springs: The Srivastava household moved out.

Oasis Springs: The Holbrook hosuehold moved out.

Alright! That’s that. Next time join us for – ah. The Nier Automata household. See ya then!

I'm honestly shocked that since Emotion/Representation aired I've yet to see anyone do anything at all with Felix and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein??? I think about it every day it's literally THE Felix piece of media. It's his entire character thesis. What are we doing guys

I KNOW I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT IT THE OTHER DAY

To be fair I have seen a few people headcanoning it as one of Felix’s favourite books (Which yes. Absolutely. 1,000,000%) but there hasn’t been any fics/art/edits/etc. about it yet to my knowledge. My copy is at my parents’ and in French but I am tempted to find an English PDF since it’s been public domain for a good while now. The web weave potential is insane.

I have many thoughts about Felix and literature in general… I have him quote Cyrano de Bergerac all the time in my fics, for example. I was thinking of starting a list of works of art and literature he’d enjoy, so I’ll take this as a sign to get writing! I can get my fandom friends to make some suggestions as well! 📝

Edit: @bittersweetresilience got us covered, our honour is safe 💜🦚

Mary and Francis

He's more myself

Than I am.

Whatever our souls

Are made of,

His and mine

Are the same.

(Emily Brontë, from "Wuthering Heights")

[regnigt]

In Emily Climbs, there's a chapter ("'As Ithers See Us'") where Emily hides in a cupboard from two visitors because she's wearing unflattering cleaning clothes, resulting in her unwillingly eavesdropping on even more unflattering gossip about herself. The two visiting gossipers are called Mrs Ann Cyrilla Potter and Miss Beulah Potter, and I can't remember if they ever appear again, but I don't think so.

I'm just saying this because the way Mrs. Ann Cyrilla Potter is described reminds me of Aunt Irene in Jane of Lantern Hill.

...Mrs. Ann Cyrilla was a plump, pretty, smooth, amiable gossip who, by very reason of her smoothness and amiability, did more real harm in a week than Miss Potter did in a year. Emily distrusted her even while she could not help liking her.

(...)"Oh," said Mrs. Ann Cyrilla, laughing with tolerant derision, "I hear that Emily is going to make a living by writing stories -- not only a living but a fortune, I believe."

(...)[Emily] did not mind so much what Miss Potter had said, but Mrs. Ann Cyrilla's tiny barbs of malice did sting. She had liked pretty, pleasant Mrs. Ann Cyrilla, who had always seemed kind and friendly and had paid her many compliments..."

(...)[this is Emily writing in her diary] ...'I shall never forget their faces! Especially Mrs. Ann Cyrilla's. Miss Potter won't worry over it long -- she will say it served me right -- but Mrs. Ann Cyrilla will never, to her dying day, get over being found out like that.'

It's certainly not an exact match, not the least because Ann Cyrilla Potter is a very minor passing character while Aunt Irene is quite important. And notably, Jane is uneasy about Aunt Irene from the start while Emily found Ann Cyrilla charming previously. But there does seem to me to be a resemblance in type, all the same.

🖤💙💚💜

So uh I know imma nearly a month late and it’s 4/22 so here have all my numbers 4 as of now!! ❤️💙💚💜

Emily is of the Wellsworth and Suddery Railway ( I mainly based this concept off Of Wildnorwester ver of her, she’s their version of an express engine/passenger devices,) A bossy yet well meaning girlboss who’s best friends with fellow W&S Lily and Neil and tries to stop the boys (mainly Adam from arguing with Colin).

OG Express coming through dude himself!!

I adore Stuart with all my heart and soul, he got a slight redesign, I based him way too much on Human Mikey’s (mainly Rise and KiKina on Twitter)designs cause their personality and roles are quite fitting since in this au it’s plays quite differently (ex. He’s got cracks to represent his accident with the trucks though the way it happened changed ex)

U can tell I’m obsessed with Rise Donatello so I had to based a character on his personality (though I based too many haha slightly inspired by glowynatior on Twitter) off of that + plus the anime trope of a mad scientist character plus meme time baby!!

So yeah hope y’all enjoyed these lovely folks and Rise Baby Rise Baby! ✨✌️

🎃 Halloween Party! [part 1/3] 🎃

[handelplayssims]

Oye. How many more days left with these vampires? 4 it seems. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Well, let’s look at Roxana’s whims. Prank and be mean to someone. As usual. Welp, pranking is easily done. Hey, Omar! Here’s this hand buzzer trick! Next is Omar who wants to have child, or get disliked by someone. Mm. They already dislike each other though. I’m going to refresh those whims and then have him focus on Harrison. ...the whims were to leave a note on the family bulliten board and become enemies with the person he disliked. -shrug- Emilie is up and at em and needs food, and it’s an hour until work and school. Let’s just wait out the time until we head back into work with Omar.

And here we go! Perhaps today, we might get that final surgery requirement. ...if I was mean, I would perform surgery on a patient that might not need it...but eh, let’s try to be a good doctor. WOAH, there we go! We got a guy who collapsed right at the front door. And he needs emergency surgery! There we go! And hey, the patient we’ve been working on also needed surgery. Nice! Finally! He’s got that promotion! And is now a specialist! Good for Omar.

Oooh, Roxana, while I did manage to queue and get her the plasma fruit salad she needed, she also just ran out and drank from a passing sim. Hee. Now she’s super-tense about drinking from others.  MAN. I keep forgetting about Emilie and the making-friends-at-school thing! Now it’s 8PM and I bet there would only be teens at the park at this time. Doing their teen hangout thing. Ah well, both parents have whims regarding kids so, I decided to have both of them lecture their kids about manners. They’re neat sims, they’d care about this sort of thing. And now the kids are asleep. I decide to have the parents chat about the struggles of parenting...and the struggles of being a vampire. But thankfully Omar has a very high logic and can logic away the stress of drinking from a random sim. And she has low fun so uh, let’s have a woohoo in the shower.

Harrison wants to meet someone new so lets see if any teens are hanging around the park at the moment. But if not, we’ll bring someone along because he needs to drink! Hmm. The Alluring Visage means he’s low on vampire energy now. Meaning he needs to sleep. But we just got here! But I guess we can go right back home.. because it’s pretty much time for-

Neighborhood Watch!

Devan Geiger in the Geiger household has died. No cliffhanger here; Devan slipped when rock climbing.

Hold on, let me check something…yep. This was the guy who just moved into a home. RIP!

Mack Newman in the Newman hosuehold has died. Mack tried to make cereal but it burst into flames.

Let’s see, it’s early in the morning, nothing much to do. The kids sleep schedule is all kinds of messed up but alas. Let’s make sure I actually remember to set Emile to make friends at school. Omar’s got work at 9 until 7pm. So that leaves Roxana alone to do her work. And we got a biography about a dude who very much wants someone to write about him. That’ll do. Huh, and evidently she’s excited about the project at least. So a drink break and then we head back to work. Annnd she’s sick. Stuffed up nose, it seems. Well, what is the recommendations, internet? Taking a steamy shower! Annd hey, it worked! Back to writing she goes! Kids are back from school and boy, are they tired! But Roxana wants them to volunteer with her and so what she wants, she gets!

Let’s see. Omar does want a promotion, again. Could think about just having him visit a library for a late-night study instead. Since hey, that does also work, in theory, for a doctor. You gotta research your medical stuff! Oh hey, we actually met a scientist, since we’re at Strangerville. There would be a scientist/doctor solidarity, wouldn’t there? Let’s play a game of chess, get the know the guy a little and then head home.

Home again, and Omar wants to eat some popcorn. It’ll go poorly but we can attempt to have some. Meanwhile Harrison wants another promotion. Which, fine and all but I guess let’s work on your charisma skill. Selena’s hungry and Emile, oof! Bladder failure! ...and Roxana’s whim didn’t clear because we left in the middle of it. Fair enough, I suppose! Also I am trying to have Omar mend his relationship with Selena but alas! She just thinks he’s creepy with that weird hissing all the time! Ah well. Anyway it’s time for-

Neighborhood Watch! Mizuki Maeda in the Maeda household has died. Mizuki was victim to a vicious chicken attack.

Ah man. She was one of my longest lived townies. Riiiiiip!

Akira Kibo in the Kibo household has died. Akira fell for a cowplant’s cake bait. He could not have his cake and eat it too.

Ha. I had a feeling this was going to happen to him sooner or later. RIP!

[lallyloo]

hey lally it's ccr 😊, for the randl asks:

5. Favourite crew member?

12. Did you like Rhett clean shaved?

49. Favourite Rhink moment?

5. Favourite crew member?

I don't think I have a favourite above all others but I like Emily, Jordan, Lucas, Nicole, Pasley, and Mikayla, and then I also really enjoy Jordan, Gwynedd, and Danny from Sporked. Okay, maybe if I really had to choose I'd say Emily and Sporked Jordan.

12. Did you like Rhett clean shaven?

I definitely prefer him with a beard but I don't think he's the hideous monster he believes himself to be without his beard! The photo he always points to as proof that his clean shaved face is ugly is just a bad angle. He looks perfectly fine without it. Handsome even.

49. Favourite Rhink moment?

Omg.. umm... maybe Link cuddling Rhett when he thought Rhett hurt his back during Will It Shorts..

and also in GMMore 813 when Rhett says so sincerely (TWICE) that he would die for Link

[gif by @graveyard-whistler]

Maybe not the outright Rhinkiest moments but I like when you can clearly see how much they care about each other. ❤

Oh, but this whole episode was also very good.. 😍

Thanks for the questions Rube!! 😊
