WHAT'S IN MY MAIN BAG?? - BETTER CR

My bag is a Kappa matte leather tote bag in the shade Peach Milk and Foam Pink! I have a different bag for my school days, but unless you guys wanna ask for it, I'll keep it on hold. ^^

My bag is pretty pink, the decor even more so... I love to accessorize everything and give it my own little charms!

୨ৎ KEYCHAINS - just something super cute and simple to accessorize. I picked the middle one while Liya personally made the third one, and Danny picked the first one!

୨ৎ PINS - shows my interests! I'm an avid Precure watcher and Sanrio lover!! The mirror was a small birthday gift from Danny, and I adore it so much!

୨ৎ HAIRCLIPS - Small hair clips on the straps to give the straps some character! I just chose the cutest ones I had!

୨ৎ HANDSANITIZER - Can't go wrong with some hand sanitizer!! I picked my favorite scent, strawberries, because I just can't resist it!

୨ৎ PHOTOCARD HOLDER AND PHOTO - A lovely brief moment from our middle school graduation, just before we headed into high school! Blue is Liya, red is Danny, and pink is... obviously me.

୨ৎ PLUSHIE KEYCHAINS - more accessories to give it even more flair!! As I say, there is no such thing as too many accessories!

୨ৎ POUCH - A small pouch just in case I can't fit everything in the main pocket! It fits a small snack (like mochi or sometimes a Hello Panda snack), an old camera, and some more hair clips since I don't like using the ones on my straps.

Here are some of the things inside! Still... very pink. Can't help that it's my favorite color!

୨ৎ PHONE - Yes, of course I'm going to have my phone! It's an iPhone 15 Pro Max in pink! I'm probably never going to change from this phone... it's just so cute!!!

୨ৎ WALLET - ALWAYS have to have my wallet. How else am I going to get 10 sandwiches just for myself from Subway??? It also has an AirTag attached to it, just in case I lose it!

୨ৎ KEYS - My home keys and a key to my parents' home! (Yes, I live in a different house than my parents lol.)

୨ৎ AIRPODS - Always have to have my AirPods with me! They're like my lifeline....

୨ৎ HYGIENE POUCH - Always need one of these! Not really for me, but for my friends or maybe a classmate!

୨ৎ SKETCHBOOK & PENCIL - I'm always drawing, whether that be in the car, on long flights, or even in class. So it's always needed with me!

୨ৎ MAKEUP POUCH - I don't wear makeup very often, usually just lip gloss or some mascara, but my friends might need some makeup!

୨ৎ GLASSES CASE - Danny's glasses inside with my own flair in terms of the case. Danny needs them and often leaves them with me!

୨ৎ HAIRBRUSH - Even though I scripted my hair never tangles, it's literally so useful for anyone to have on them.

୨ৎ TRINKET POUCH - Small trinkets my friends give me go in here! I love having it with me all the time because even though some of my friends are overseas, they'll still be with me!

୨ৎ PORTABLE CHARGER - Again, always needed! I don't want my phone to die on a very long road trip to an amusement park!

୨ৎ CLAWCLIPS - One for me, another extra. Though I use both interchangeably.

୨ৎ CALICO CRITTERS - They're just cute! It also reminds me of my childhood.

More pink!! Imagine the Hygiene pouch being bigger, as well as the makeup pouch being a bit larger as well ^^;

MAKEUP POUCH

୨ৎ BEAUTY BLENDER - I prefer beauty blenders instead of makeup brushes because I like the absorbent properties of the blenders!

୨ৎ LIP GLOSS - Some Dior lip gloss because I am bougie. Always in love with the slightly tinted color!!

୨ৎ HIGH LIGHTER - Rare Beauty's highlighter in the color 'Enlighten.'

୨ৎ BLUSH - Romand blush in the color 'Vine nude.' I love the subtlety! especially because I already have naturally blushed cheeks.

୨ৎ EYELINER - super opaque, and I love liquid eyeliners. I don't like the texture of pencil eyeliners, and they're easier to smudge, which is good if the person wants it... But I want my eyeliner to stay in place and not budge!

୨ৎ CONCEALER - Dior concealer in the shade 2C or 1C... I forgot. I don't wear foundation because it's usually a bit heavy for my skin. Plus, I don't really need it. My skin's already glowing!!

୨ৎ EYESHADOW - Cupid Club eyeshadow! I don't usually wear a lot of eyeshadow, but when I do, it's usually in pinky-brown tones with some white and sparkles.

HYGIENE POUCH

୨ৎ DEODORANT - a small, travel-sized stick of apple and white tea deodorant! I really wanted a small spray version but they didn't have it :(

୨ৎ BANDAIDS - Just in case someone gets hurt! Of course, they are Sanrio/pink themed! I couldn't help myself!

୨ৎ STAIN REMOVER - I prefer the Tide-to-Go pen because it's super easy to carry and doesn't take up a lot of space!

୨ৎ MEDICINE - I usually carry some Tylenol or Advil with me just in case Liya or Danny gets a headache!

୨ৎ GUM - More gum! Except it's mint and peppermint flavored. I don't use these; it's more for other people... I absolutely HATE peppermint and anything with mint in it, so I stay very far away from these... but I go through them like hotcakes when I go to school.

୨ৎ PADS & TAMPONS - Of course, necessities! I don't get my period, but some other women do in my DR! I have different sizes and absorbencies as well.

୨ৎ PERFUME - Both a tiny Dior perfume and Burberry 'Her' perfume! I love, love, LOVE Burberry perfumes, so of course I've got to have it!

୨ৎ HAIRSTICK - The one I have is from Japan, and it's superrr helpful! My hair can sometimes get some strays, so this is super helpful to have on hand!

୨ৎ VASELINE - gotta have some Vaseline! Super versatile and helps my lips' moisture stay nice and locked in.

୨ৎ DRY SHAMPOO - I don't get greasy roots in between washes, but still, someone else might need it!

୨ৎ HAND CREAM - Honestly, I just chose this for the scent and cute packaging, but it's also very soothing and not oily! It fades into the skin perfectly and has a pleasant-but-not-overbearing peachy scent.

୨ৎ SUNSCREEN - Personally, I LOVE Centella's sunscreen. It's just perfect! There's no white cast, it absorbs into my skin like a sponge, so I don't feel oily... perfection! Also, always have some sunscreen on you.

I'm more sentimental in my DR than I am in this reality, so of course I had to add a little trinket pouch and ask my friends to give me some items!

WALLET

୨ৎ CARDS - I'm extra and have a black card even though I mostly use my **pink** debit card. Yes, I have to emphasize that it is pink.

୨ৎ CASH - I always have that anxiety that somehow I'll never have enough money on my card (even though I have infinite money), so I just keep a little cash on me. I also like to give my friend's money when they ask, so if we are all shopping, I can just give them some money and let them be on their way!

୨ৎ STUDENT ID CARD - Of course I have to have my student ID. It's pink.... You should know why by now. Our student IDs can be accessorized and chosen in different colors. Just imagine it's a bit lighter of a pink ;)

୨ৎ TICKET - This was the first time me, Liya, and Danny went to the amusement park together! It was like in 7th grade when my aunt asked me. I've always been a homebody, but I decided, why not? Let's just say I had the most fun I've ever had in my entire life!

୨ৎ GUM - It's a piece of gum a family friend gave to me for my birthday! It was a joke, of course, but I still saved it.

TRINKET POUCH

୨ৎ CRYSTALS - Danny absolutely loves crystals, especially amethyst. So when she found a perfectly good amethyst crystal on a walk home from school, she was ecstatic and instantly gave it to me <3

୨ৎ PEARL BRACELET - Clara may be overseas, but she sent me a link to a small shop offering pearl bracelets. I couldn't resist! I bought it and now I keep it in my little pouch so I can be reminded of her whenever I look at it.

୨ৎ PURPLE PIN - okay, it may not be a pin, but I have no idea what it's called. This was from Liya! Back in 4th grade, she went to Africa for vacation and brought this back because it reminded her of me. I still don't understand what she means by that, but... I still take care of it and hold it very dear to my heart.

୨ৎ ROCK - just... a plain old rock. Nothing special within it, just a rock. Alice certainly is a very eccentric person by normal standards, but that's okay! She lives in Italy but told me to go outside and find a rock so that she could always be with me. And... that's how I got the rock.

୨ৎ PLUSHIE - Same thing with Clara, Iris lives pretty far away, and I wanted something to keep her close. I asked her to send me a link to something, and she sent me this! I bought it, and now it stays there... lurking... silently watching.

୨ৎ BUTTON - This was actually a button to one of my favorite shirts when I was a kid. It is also the first time I met Odessa. (Odessa is the fairy queen; yes, I will hopefully expand on how faeries are real in my better cr!)

୨ৎ FEATHER, RIBBON, BOTTLECAP - Some gifts that Odessa gifted me! I keep her gifts in a small box because I hate throwing them away, even though she tells me its okay. ^^;

୨ৎ TEDDY BEAR CHAIN - Aether... can you guess what happened with her? Same old story. She lives across the country, and I wanted something to keep her close!!

Your Love Settled Into Me Too Well |Part 1

💬 ask | ✨ masterlist | Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

Pairing: Jealous Wreck!Namjoon x Not-As-Healed-As-She-Pretends OC

Summary: You see him before he sees you. It’s not cinematic. It’s worse. A party, a silver chain, and the girl who didn’t have to ask. You’re unraveling quietly — again.

Themes: heartbreak, jealousy, second chances, spiraling, emotional tension, slow burn

Word Count: 1.4k

A/N: this was supposed to be 2k words of angst but apparently my fingers had other plans 🧍‍♀️ buckle up. I promise the angst won’t be too much but have so much saved up

….

Scene: Present Day, College Year three — House Party

Are you even listening?”

Jimin’s voice yanks you back to the present. He’s sprawled on your bed, head dangling off the edge, a hoodie bunched under his neck for support. He’s halfway through a rant about his psych professor, but you’ve heard maybe ten percent of it.

“Sorry,” you mumble. “I spaced.”

He squints at you. “Spaced or spiraled?”

“Bit of both.”

He flips upright in one fluid motion, crossing his legs like a Disney princess with a grudge. “It’s happening again, isn’t it?”

You look up from your notes. “What is?”

“The Namjoon Spiral. Capital N, capital S.”

You say nothing.

Jimin sighs. “We need a distraction.”

“I have class.”

“We need a better distraction. Party tonight. Jungkook’s throwing it. Tae’s bringing half the dance department. It’ll be hell.”

“That sounds like a terrible idea.”

He grins. “So, we’ll pregame at my place?”

You should’ve said no.

You should’ve stayed in.

Instead, you let Jimin curl your lashes and steal one of Dana’s black crop tops. You let him smear lip gloss over your bottom lip and hum something soft under his breath while doing it.

“Trust me,” he’d said. “You’ll feel better.”

You don’t.

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

It’s laughable, really, how someone can be gone and still manage to haunt a space like they own it.

Namjoon isn’t here. Not physically. You’d know if he was—you always know.

And yet… his presence is thick in the air. Lingering like cologne on an old hoodie you can’t bring yourself to throw away.

The party is loud, humid, and packed with too many people you almost recognize. People brush past, loud and alive, but you can’t seem to sink into it. Not really. Not like you used to.

You cling to a red Solo cup and pretend it’s a shield. Jimin has already disappeared into a crowd of flirty smiles and loud laughter. You spot Yoongi on a couch, half-listening to Hoseok while quietly peeling the label off a beer bottle. Taehyung is in the kitchen—laughing too hard, eyes flicking away from you every time you glance his way.

Bass from a portable speaker thuds beneath your feet, floorboards humming with every beat. Someone yells something about shots, and a blender whines from the kitchen. You try to pretend this is fine. That you didn’t spend half an hour sitting on Jimin’s bed, debating whether to come at all.

But now you’re here—and it’s like the air’s made of static.

Jimin pulls you through the doorway, glitter on his cheekbone and a drink in hand. His energy buzzes loud enough for both of you. “Let’s make some mistakes,” he says, grinning, and you nod like you’re ready.

You’re not.

You haven’t been ready for anything since him.

Jimin disappears for a bit, like a party host at an event that isn’t his. It’s not out of character—if anything, it’s perfectly on-brand.

You feel it again. That crack in the group. The split no one talks about.

It started around the time you left.

No one says it was your fault.

But no one says it wasn’t either.

You settle into the rhythm, a back and forth in your mind, just you and deep loneliness. Just in time for Jimin’s return, you stick to him like a shadow—your buffer, your anchor, your soft place to fall.

Jungkook appears not long after, shirt half-buttoned, neck glittering with a gold chain. He throws Jimin a smile that’s too sweet, too intentional.

You try not to feel like a third wheel.

You sip your drink. Laugh when you’re supposed to. Float through conversations like a ghost.

Across the room, Yoongi shifts on the couch.

He’s still half-listening to Hoseok, still peeling the label off that beer bottle like it owes him something. But his eyes flick toward you — just once, just long enough to notice the tight line of your mouth, the way your grip on your cup hasn’t relaxed all night.

He doesn’t say anything.

He just holds your gaze for a breath too long.

Then looks away.

That’s the thing about Yoongi. He never says much. But he always sees it first.

It’s only when you let your guard down—when you’ve just started to forget—that it happens.

You see him before he sees you.

It’s not dramatic—no movie moment with slow motion and a broken wine glass.

No, it’s worse.

It’s casual.

Namjoon walks in like he hasn’t been avoiding this party for weeks.

Like he didn’t turn down every invitation from Hoseok, Yoongi, even Jungkook.

Like he decided to come on his own.

He walks in like he owns the floor beneath him. Like the air adjusts for him.

And god help you—

he looks just like he did the first time you met.

Tall, effortless, dangerous in that quiet way that sneaks up on you. His black slacks sit low on his hips, casual but precise, and the sleeves of his shirt are rolled to his elbows, forearms carved and golden under the lights.

A thin silver chain glints against his throat, delicate where he isn’t.

And somehow, that’s worse.

It’s worse because you remember the first time you noticed that chain.

Worse because he wore it the night he first kissed you.

Worse because he still wears it like it means nothing—

while you’re over here remembering everything.

His hair’s a little longer now, and he’s let the curl show. You hate how much that matters.

How much you miss touching it.

How your fingers ache with memory.

He walks in like it was his idea.

But you know better.

Because Sohee is right there.

Tiny skirt. Perfect hair. That smug, effortless air she carries like perfume.

The kind of girl who doesn’t have to try. Doesn’t have to chase. Doesn’t even have to ask.

She just… receives.

She looks good. Of course she does. Girls like her always do.

It’s not even the outfit — it’s the way she wears attention like it was made for her. Like it belonged to her before anyone else noticed.

You hate yourself for looking too long.

But you do.

Because you don’t remember what it’s like to be looked at like that without earning it first.

You’ve always had to explain your softness. Justify your want.

Sohee just exists, and people follow.

And Namjoon—

He came.

For her.

She’s the reason he’s here, not Yoongi, not Jungkook, not you.

Sohee didn’t need to beg. Didn’t have to text. Didn’t even have to ask.

She just showed up — and he followed.

And in that moment, it doesn’t matter how much he once loved you.

It only matters that he doesn’t now.

Your drink tips, just slightly, just enough to chill your wrist — and still, you don’t blink.

It was never a competition you think.

The music doesn’t stop. The crowd doesn’t part.

But your breath catches.

You want to look away. You try.

Instead, you plant yourself beside Jimin, fingers curling tighter around your drink, and pray that no one sees your chest cave in.

Jimin doesn’t notice at first. He’s too busy pretending not to flirt with Jungkook.

Their banter hums beside you, soft laughter and shoulder nudges, and you try to blend in—smile when they smile, sip when they sip.

But your eyes drift.

Back to him.

Namjoon is nodding at someone across the room. Saying hi to Hoseok. Smiling—but only a little.

You used to know the difference between all his smiles.

This one? You don’t recognize it.

Sohee presses close to whisper something in his ear, and your stomach lurches.

You’re not even jealous, not exactly. You’re just—

Displaced.

It’s like walking into your old bedroom only to find it redecorated. Nothing violent. Just unfamiliar.

Like you were erased.

⸻

You try to breathe.

The lights flicker pink and gold across the ceiling. Someone passes you with a tray of jello shots. A girl in rhinestone boots laughs too loudly behind you.

And still—your eyes won’t leave him.

He’s nodding at someone across the room

Sohee knew exactly what she was doing, didn’t she?

She’s the reason he’s here.

Because no one else could get him to come—not Yoongi’s birthday, not Jungkook’s art showcase, not even that stupid “Low Key Friday” night Hoseok threw two weeks ago.

But her?

Of course she could bring him.

And he came.

For her.

Sims 3 animated bedding tutorial

I've been working on this tutorial for quite a while now, and i figured i'd upload it for those who need an in-depth explanation on how to assign bones to beds so they animate properly However, i must note that i do NOT know how to assign 'bits' to beds, therefore that part of the tutorial is missing... You may be able to accomplish this if you try following Gruesim's tutorial found here, but it is not included in mine [the bit is the piece that stretches to cover the inside of the bedding]

Also, you will need Gruesim's bed mesh references here

You can download the .doc version of this tutorial here Sideshow_Snob functional bed tutorial [TS3]

tutorial below -->

Programs you will need: TSRW (i like to use the old version/portable) Milkshape 1.8 Blender (im using 2.7 but you can use any version) Meshtoolkit

-To start, let’s find a good bed to convert. Try to find something that has the blanket, pillow, and mattress textures all on one image, so you don’t have to re-map it. Try and pick a bed where the design isn’t too complicated, if it’s your first conversion.

-This is an example of a good bed to convert. The textures are all in one image, the polycount is only 2k so we don’t even have to decimate it, and it has a good blanket and pillow mesh.

Step One: [Exporting the mesh and textures in sims4studio]

-Open the bed you chose, and import it into sims4studio. Export the mesh, and all the textures into a folder. I usually name my texture files (1,2,3) and so on.

Step Two: [References to use]

-This is extremely important. Open TSRW and clone this specific bed

-Use either the single or double version. I’m using bed single modern, since I'm converting a single bed.

-Go ahead and export this bed as a .obj file in the mesh tab, as we need it as a reference to use in blender. Leave this for later, we’ll come back to it when we import our finished mesh.

Step Three: [Separating the mesh in blender]

-Open the .blend file you got from exporting your mesh. We are now going to separate the bed into multiple pieces (pillow, blanket, mattress, bed frame) and fit them to be the same size as the EA Bed.

-Separate your mesh by shift clicking verts, and pressing shift+ to select the entire piece. If shift+ doesn’t select the entire thing, you’ll have to select them all by hand. Separate your selected piece, by pressing P

-After your done, your mesh should be separated like this:

Mattress

Bed Frame

Pillows (i usually separate both of them if its a double bed)

Blanket

Step Four: [Shaping the mesh in blender]

-These shortcuts are going to be very important for this part.

Shift S → x (scales on the x axis) Shift S → y (scales on the y axis) Shift S → z (scales on the z axis)

-Go ahead and move the pieces of your mesh around until they closely align the EA Bed, so it animates properly

-This is what my finished mesh looks like

-Once your mesh parts are close to the EA counterparts, go ahead and export each piece separately.

-Be sure to give them the correct names (blanket, pillow, bedframe, mattress), so that you don’t get confused later. I usually save the .blend file as well, in case I want to make edits later, which you will probably have to do if something happens after you assign your bones.

Step Five: [Renaming files to the correct groups]

-This is where things unfortunately get a little bit tricky

-We’re going to be going both milkshape and Meshtoolkit quite a bit

-Import the .obj files from your bed, one, by one so we can rename them. They need to be renamed ‘group_base’ so we can assign bones.

-Export all files you rename with the same name, except add “merged” onto the end, and export them as a .wso file. The bedframe bones are going to be assigned when we import all the finished bones into milkshape, so you can export it as 'merged' but we aren't going to be using meshtoolkit for that one.

Step Six: [Assigning bones with meshtoolkit]

-make sure you have frankie’s EA bed mesh references

-Open meshtoolkit → Auto Tools for WSO, and uncheck interpolation, and make sure you have it set to ‘replace all bone assignments’

-WSO mesh to modify: your merged file

-Reference mesh: The EA reference of the same kind (IE, blanket)

-When it prompts you to save the file, save it over the existing ‘blanketmerged�� file.

-Once you’ve assigned the bones to the blanket, pillow, and mattress, import them all into milkshape.

-Side Note-

This is important, you will NOT have to merge all your groups if you are doing this for a DOUBLE bed. only merge all the groups if you are assigning bones for a single bed. For double beds keep the groups separate like how they are in the TSRW reference mesh!

-Go ahead and select everything, press the ‘regroup’ button in the mesh tab, and then rename it back to ‘group base’

-do this for everything EXCEPT the bed frame. we will be assigning the bed frame by hand.

Step 7: assigning the bed frame bones

-Since you've got your bed pieces all grouped together and renamed group_base, go ahead and import your bed frame file.

-Go ahead and 'hide' your bedding in the groups tab so we can only see the bed frame mesh. go ahead and search for the specific bone labeled "0xCD68F001" in the joints tab. once you have found it, go to the model tab and click "select". 'alt shift right click' to select all the verts of your bed frame mesh. go back to the joints tab and click assign. your bed frame bones have now been assigned.

go ahead and "regroup" the bedframe and bedding as one group.

Import your mesh into the tsrw project we made earlier, import your textures and you should be finished.

[finished product]

If you have an questions, or suggestions please don't hesitate to ask. I hope this tutorial was helpful ^_^

[dreamerwitches]

I recently figured out how to view Portable models in blender so I thought I'd share as it gives us really nice close ups! There are a lot of aspects to Candeloro here that I never noticed or is just really hard to see with what's available to us.

I hope others find this useful too!

d&d robot wizard named Intellibeam Laserstation

(page 1555-1572)

It’s feeling so Act 2 up in here because we are seeing a couple of kids try to figure out Sburb mechanics while being equal parts competent and silly.

But first, a revelation that Jack Noir has ‘a policy of handing out a REGISWORD and a HITLIST to just about everyone who enters your office’ (p.1555). This is in my homestuck jokes hall of fame because it’s a sudden punch of absurdity that adds to the plot and characterization, instead of detracting from them. I think the jokes that don’t hit for me tend to be when a character uses a phrase format or SBAHJ reference that feels out of character for them to say, or when a joke replaces what could be a character moment (for example, p.444). This joke contributes to Jack’s amorality and clear-headedness while inciting disproportionate violence, and preserves PM’s character arc, since it’s significant if she’s the only recipient of this hitlist who actually carries it out.

It sucks that the Queen keeps Jack locked behind a desk watching other people when he has this much flair and style. He should be on the stage. Also I cannot imagine the damage PM would inflict upon Jack if she saw him open that package that isn’t addressed to him. That’s a MAIL CRIME and I for one am not even curious what’s inside until the package reaches its ADDRESSED recipient.

Dave and Jade are a fun combination of Sburb players, because Dave has no concerns with playing the game ‘correctly’ and is willing to go with whatever makes things easier, while Jade has the inventor’s curiosity and wants to exploit hacks and glitches to advance as fast as possible. And Dave may have made fun of Jade for her ‘goofy modusses’ (p.382) but he is definitely benefiting from them now. Jade doesn’t play many games (p.442, 1400) but has spent her whole life engaging with Skaian technology, which is essentially ‘tech that functions on video game logic’ [sidenote: this definition made me decide that the sylladex is also 100% Skaian tech] so I think this helps her intuit how Sburb works.

The ability to alchemize the alchemiter feels right and correct. Alchemiter upgrades and add-ons allow for more complexity in the mechanics without needing more machines than would be practical to work with, just like how Sburb’s Atheneum (p.620) can store previously carved totems so that it’s not necessary to retain the physical objects. It seems like if enough machines are combined into one, the physical steps (moving around, handling and carving cruxite and cards) will be eliminated and the whole process will be automated. On a story level, it allows for power scaling as an upgrade can be anything, and there’s less concern for the time and space that a task takes – small developments like this and the suggestion of transportalizers between planets (p.1531) are still expanding the scope of the story.

I think a portable alchemiter would be a great next step. Gotta have a punch card for a little backpack and then Dave can carry this around while exploring his planet and he won’t end up like John, in a land of copper giclopses far away from weapon upgrades.

But what I love about Sburb is that it doesn’t care if an update is helpful. It lets the players make bad and nonsensical decisions and incorporates them into its logic. It’s open world and if you want a blender or a GameBro bust on your alchemiter then you can. It’s the difference between a game that makes an error sound if your strength is too low to equip the Ultra Greatsword and a game that lets you equip it and then just be a shitty fighter.

Dave struggling for space on page 1563 made me wonder about the smallest space needed to play Sburb. Its name suggests a full house, but a large room, like a well kept studio apartment, might have room. But a dorm room or houseboat or RV or nursing home or hospital simply would not work without modifications, and the idea of playing Sburb in unconventional living spaces is really interesting to me. Maybe if I write fanfiction it will be about that since it seems outside the scope of the comic at this point.

There’s no WAY we find out what the intellibeam laserstation does any time soon – this reveal is definitely getting saved, which leaves room for speculation! ‘Intelli’ comes from intelligence or intelligible, ‘beam’ and ‘laser’ both suggest a highly precise and advanced ray of light, and ‘station’ is a designated place for an activity (or a regular stopping point, and now I am imagining a train station for lasers). So, this is intelligent light, light that can shape and direct itself according to what it’s needed for? Or it’s light that can itself be used as a resource or material, a place for creating light or building with it? Light is a theoretically infinite resource, so could tie into Skaia’s ‘unlimited creative potential’ (p.422). It could even be involved in creating constructs – things with an intelligence of their own – giving lategame players the ability to alchemize their own light kingdom agents to combat the dark.

(hello! tis the mc stuck on tree saved by lilia anon :D just wanted to drop some more fluffs!)

fluff thought of the day: having fun cooking with diasomnia fam. yes, even Lilia.

it feels like a military operation: you're grinning at the absurdity of it all as Silver is very adamant about not letting Lilia improvise no matter what. you won't, but you burst out laughing when you catch Lilia pulling a mistery spice out of his pocket and a bird that is Definitely Not One of Silver's Friends just snatches it out of Lilia'a hands. the old fae begins to chase the feathery miscreant, who even has the gall to perch on one of Malleus' horns for safety. Sebek has his mouth open wide at the sheer audacity, but Malleus is both happy with the attention and being able to save everyone from an impending doom. Lilia could fly to get the damn puffball, but Silver distracts him by asking him about a recipe.

Malleus perches the bird on your shoulder. it hides under your vest. you wonder: how can a bird look so worried? this world's weird, but charming.

Sebek offers to do every single step for Malleus. Silver is now multitasking juggling his father's accidental murder tendencies via food with Sebek smothering the prince. you take pity in the poor man and decided to give Sebek a non-requested visual demonstration on How To Train Your Drago–er, how to help your dragon prince to use kitchen appliances. you let him press all the buttons to test out what they do, making sure nothing will explode.

grinding some almonds in the blender takes nearly forty minutes, but Malleus' satisfied smile is worth it. Silver is playing bait and switch with Lilia's mistery raspberry sauce. there is chaos everywhere. you love every second of it.

the tart comes out decent looking. Lilia cuts some pieces and invites all of you to his room to watch a movie together or maybe play some games (as long as Malleus promises not to break another controller and Sebek promises to enjoy the evening himself without offering to do every race foe the prince.) the leftover ingredients are scooped up by Silver to leave at the windowsill for his forest friends. you brew some tea, cocoa and... is that a small portable freezer with energy drinks? what? Lilia laughs at the face you make. you end up sighing with fondness before grabbing one of his drinks for him. you hope he won't mix it with his tea (he will when Silver is not looking).

the other dorm students will say it's chaos–terrifying and a mess. "the housewarden will get mad if we bother him. maybe he'll blow the kitchen up–everyone run!"

but to you they're just signs of life. of happiness. of finding pockets of humanity within cold, stone walls.

the thing is, though, you know they are always there for those who know where to look.

you feel thankful for your eyes, for you are one of those people that can see it.

(About this post)

Hello Anonie 💚🌷🌺

The bird taking refuge in your vest?? How cute ���🥹😭😭

Your dino models are so cool! I have 2 questions:

1. Are you self taught or did you go to school to learn how to 3d model?

2. Have you heard of the game/play the game Path of Titans?

I did go to college to learn this sort of thing but really nothing came of it. We used Maya as our software (industry standard), but on the last year, I checked out Blender because it offered a better portable experience on my laptop. From there I decided to make the full switch. Since I've been doing these projects, I've gotten my workflow down pat. Something that college failed to teach me

Yes, I've played it for a short time, but it could not hold my interest for long. The gameplay is very boring, but the creature models are very nice.

Hi ma'am, what environment works best for you to work in? Like time of day or specific place?

Hi and hello dear Anon, thanks for getting in touch with your question - I hope you're well! 🤗 Since your question might be interesting for everyone, I've taken some time to answer in depth. I hope it's useful for y'all!

🔽How I work best as a full-time artist🔽

Time/Schedule

I personally work best early in the day when my concentration and energy is at its highest.

Since I am prone to either ALWAYS work/draw or be exhausted from rushing myself, a good schedule is vital! Currently, I am in the process of figuring out a new, much more flexible schedule for myself, where certain days of the week are reserved for tasks with some flex days to switch things around if needed.

I like to start with admin tasks, which I find difficult, and work my way down until I can "just draw", which I find easiest.

Workplace/Set-Up

I work with a PC and drawing tablet set-up, so I am bound to my desk workplace-wise, but I would love to upgrade with a portable tablet so I can draw out in nature or in society.

I've surrounded my desk with things that inspire me: Plants, postcards, trinkets, you name it. This keeps my brain fresh and oftentimes gives me a boost to keep drawing.

My monitors are positioned high enough that I can see them well while sitting upright. Good posture is vital if you spend a lot of time working!

I now have my big Huion Kamvas tablet that has a display, so I need to remind myself to not be crouched over it all the time. I also pull up the artwork on my further-away monitor to check the overall composition and/or values, instead of drowning in details!

Health While Working

While drawing, music, documentaries or Let's Plays are vital to keep the overthinking at bay and to keep me in the flow!

WATER!! I can't stress enough how important it is to drink. Enough. Water. If I don't, that results in brain fog and art is no.

Sometimes I need to rest my eyes on something else than my WIP art - I usually keep my desktop wallpaper something calming and almost neutral (like a mist-covered lake or a mountain ridge) and just stare at it for a few moments.

I am mindful of my breaks, especially when drawing! I use a pomodoro timer to know when it's time for stretching my hands and for water breaks.

Snack breaks are also a good thing - I definitely recommend fruit (because of course!), nuts and dark chocolate. They help me stay energized without making me drowsy.

Process

I keep a very detailed To Do list to keep myself motivated and also to know where exactly in the art/project process I am. My brain can either be in admin mode or creative mode, not both.

If I feel blocked either artistically or energy wise, I try to do some personal sketches for at least ten minutes.

If I absolutely can't motivate myself to draw (due to energy levels or whatever reason), I honor that and see if I want to do something else, like learning Blender, learning more about the business side of the artist life - or maybe just take a breather and let myself be a human bean.

Some days, I like the challenge of sketching a new idea, some days I prefer the cozy and less creative task of doing outlines and shading of existing sketches. I now try to let myself do what I gravitate towards more and it pays off with me not feeling overwhelmed as easily. It's about just doing what you can most of the time.

When I'm done with a piece of artwork, I try my darndest to be very supportive and proud of myself. I take a longer break and return to look at the finished artwork, trying to name my favorite thing about it as well as something I can see needs more work.

Something I don't do YET but will do: Keeping a document with all the positive comments I receive. I think validation and acknowledgement are things that humans almost always enjoy and keeping a record of praise around is sure to motivate me at least a little.

And that's that! If any of you read to this point: Thank you very much, I hope you found my list useful! If you have any tips or tricks regarding drawing, staying motivated and in general doing a hecking survive as an arting individual, why not drop it in the comments for all to benefit from? Stay healthy and stay happy! Much love! 😊

i am getting a small portable blender to make smoothies easily in the mornings :)

since i've been struggling a lot with my relationship with food and just food in general, i've started making strawberry smoothies and adding two handfuls of assorted greens like spinach and stuff. you can't taste it but i'm still getting in my fruits, veggies, and dairy(i add milk). it's really helping me eat more food groups and it feels like cheating lmao

i can also use less milk and have a sorbet type consistency. it's a nice meal that doesn't make me feel bad and still is good for me!!

also since i associate smoothies with being healthy, i can eat/drink(?) it without feeling guilty and oml smoothies are so amazing!!!

okay that was it i just had to say how much i love them :) ily all <3

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD IM GONNA SCREAM EVEN HARDER IF YOU EVER SAY YOURE NOT THE BEST AT WRITING AGAIN I SAW THAT FIC POST AND FELT GOD HIMSELF TEAR MY HEART FROM MY CHEST AND SHOVE IT IN A BLENDER AND PRESS THE ON BUTTON LIVE IN REAL TIME OH MY GODDDDDDD THE FUCKING PAIN

scratching out the angry and replacing it for tired just causes me such visceral pain especially from someone like etoiles who is often seen on the server later at night and has even woken back up (canon explanations for him logging back in LMAO) just to join a fight the day of the maze and acted like it was nothing. so for something like this to tear him down and really exhaust him just omg CUCURUCHO WHEN I CATCH YOU 🖕🖕

"phil is s̶t̶i̶l̶l̶ ̶h̶e̶r̶e̶ exhausted, and passed out" what if I cried hmm ???? what if I started sobbing right here and now ??????? also poor etoiles acknowledging that the federation definitely hasn't let phil rest a second while in their care while also sitting in a room that's a pure reminder of the fact that he can't even rest properly in his own home since there's no bed made for him there, and the one upstairs has been collecting dust for months so he stays on the floor with him and allows his leg to be a cushion for at least a single night of rest because it's better then that damn chair AAAAAAAA IM IN AGONY

and fit being the main person he texts ohhhhhhhhh how I care for the fit and phil friendship they're everything to me I wanna grab their cubitos and stuff them in a set of drums and play a song with them inside I love them sm. I can imagine that out of everyone, he'd be less surprised by the federation implanting what's basically conditioning training into phils head to make him go back to them in search for someone to fix him when things go wrong. I can't imagine that he's been in that anarchy wasteland for over a decade and hasn't seen his fair share of twisted people playing sick games on others similar to this. (and the pain of watching it happen to someone so close considering back there he wasn't used to making attachments before the server ohhhhhhhhhhhh withering in pain dies on the floor)

OH HOW I LOVE DULL EYES REPRESENTING A CHARACTER NOT BEING FULLY PRESENT IN THEIR MIND ITS LIKE CRACK TO ME AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

ALSO OOOOOOOOOO YOU WILL BE DEALT WITH FOR THAT LAST LINE KNOWING DAMN WELL THAT THIS WASNT THE LAST TIME PHIL WAS TAKEN OHHHHHHHHHHH NOT ONLY IS HE BEING TRUAMATIZED BUT SO IS ETOILESSSSS WHAT DID HE EVER DO TO DESERVE THIS HE JUST WANTS TO FIGHT IN HIS FUNKY DUNGEONS AND NOW HAS TO LIVE WITH THE CRUSHING GUILT OF LETTING ONE OF HIS FRIENDS SLIP RIGHT THROUGH HIS GRASP DUE TO THIS DAMN ISLANDS RINGLEADERS EVEN THOUGH NONE OF THIS IS HIS FAULT IM GONNA SOBBBBBBBBB

this was amazing mwah 10/10 talented brilliant incredible amazing showstopping spectacular this will feed my family and water my crops and clear my skin and AAAAAAAAAA THE PAIN codebreakers r everything to me - 💿

IQJDJAK I AM SO NORMAL ABOUT THEM (LIE), WHEEZE

I absolutely adore putting in all of these little details from hinting at things, characters interacting with each other & their reactions and what these behaviours hint at and so much more and seeing that people NOTICE THEM??? AND HAVE THE SAME REACTIONS TO THEM THAT I HAD WHEN WRITING???? ME WHEN UEUEUEUEUE

The last line is so painful because you‘re so right, it‘s definitely not the last time Phil gets yoinked and I couldn‘t help myself because <333 angst of making silent promises you can’t keep <3333 IIQIQKQK

I‘m so tempted to make more small writings surrounding the Codebreakers in this au because M A N all these moments of just pure pain HITS HARD, Y‘KNOW???? Or even the situation I briefly touched upon in an earlier post between Phil & Forever or entirely different ones!!!

I have so many ideas RAAAH, but it‘s also getting late so I might push writing more to another day

Scent Diffusers in Restaurants & Cafes: How Food Aromas Make Customers Crave MORE (and Spend More!)

1. Why Your Restaurant Smells Matter (Hint: It’s a Game-Changer) Let’s get real — nobody wants to eat in a place that smells like last night’s grease trap. Scent diffusers aren’t just fancy air fresheners. They’re secret weapons to: - Make food taste better (seriously, science says so). - Drown out nasty odors (bye-bye, fryer stank). - Turn first-time visitors into regulars (because their noses remember).

— -

2. Coffee Shops: “Fresh Brew” Vibes 24/7 Problem: Your coffee smells amazing… until the AC kills the aroma. Fix: Blast aroma essential oils like roasted coffee beans or vanilla near the entrance. - Pro Tip: Add a cinnamon-scented scent diffuser near the pastry case. Watch croissant sales jump 30%

— -

3. Wine Bars: Make Cheap Wine Taste Expensive Fact: Fancy scents = fancy feels. - Red Wine Nights: Diffuse blackcurrant or dark cherry oils. Customers swear the Merlot tastes richer. - White Wine Vibes: Try green apple or pear aroma essential oils. Instant “crisp summer day” mood. Case Study: A Napa Valley bar used a scent diffuser with oak barrel scents — wine flights sold out daily.

— -

4. Juice Bars & Smoothie Shops: Smell = $$$ Truth: If your mango smoothie smells like a tropical vacation, people will buy it. - Citrus Blast: Orange + grapefruit oils near the blender. Customers think, “This is FRESH.” - Tropical Trick: Coconut + pineapple scents = instant Instagram vibes.

— -

5. Cake Shops: Turn “Meh” into “MUST BUY” Storytime: A bakery in Miami dumped their vanilla candles and got a scent diffuser with real vanilla essential oil. Cupcake sales DOUBLED. Why It Works: - Vanilla = comfort. - Caramel = “Treat yourself” energy. - Chocolate = No explanation needed. Pro Move: Place the diffuser RIGHT above the display case. Let that scent waterfall work magic.

— -

6. Fast Food Joints: Kill the Grease, Keep the Cash Ouch: Your burger joint smells like a gym sock. Customers bail. Fix: Zap fryer stank with eucalyptus or tea tree oils. - Placement: Near the drive-thru window. Customers smell herbs, not oil. - Bonus: Lemon aroma essential oils = “clean kitchen” vibes. Health nuts won’t judge.

— -

7. Pizza Places: Fake “Fresh-Baked” 24/7 Secret: Most pizza spots smell like cardboard after 2 PM. Hack: Use a scent diffuser with basil + garlic oils near the oven. - Result: Customers drool, even at midnight.

— -

8. How to Pick the RIGHT Scent Diffuser Rule #1: Don’t buy a $20 Amazon junk. It’ll die in a week. For Small Cafes: - Portable USB diffusers ($40): Quiet, easy to hide. For Restaurants: - Commercial-grade tanks ($200+): Covers 1,000 sq. ft., lasts 12 hours.

— -

9. Where to Hide Your Diffuser (So Nobody Knows) - Coffee Shops: Behind the espresso machine. - Wine Bars: Under tasting tables. - Bakeries: Inside display case shelves. Golden Rule: Subtlety wins. Don’t blast scents like a Glade bomb.

— -

10. “But I’m Broke!” — Wholesale Hacks to Save $$ Fact: You don’t need a Fortune 500 budget. - Bundles: Buy diffusers + oils together (saves 25%). - Bulk Oils: 16oz bottles of aroma essential oils = 50% cheaper per drop. - Group Orders: Split a wholesale aroma diffuser pack with other shops.

— -

11. Final Word: Scents = Silent Salesmen Your scent diffuser isn’t décor — it’s a cash-printing machine. - Coffee shops: Smell = “Buy another latte.” - Bars: Smell = “Upgrade to the pricier wine.” - Bakeries: Smell = “Take 6 cupcakes, not 2.”

Mic Drop: A $200 diffuser can pay for itself in a WEEK. Your move.
