SIMS TAG

@memoirsofasim tagged me ages ago! Thank you so much :')) I'll tag @reality-refuge @pink-chevalier @lizillasimming @rillabrooke @pixel-bloom @falsetochild and @queeniecook! Feel free to ignore, you know ittt

What’s your favourite sims death? 

Drowning. It's classic ;)

Alpha CC or Maxis Match?

Maxis match! I do like how cool alpha looks on renders and CAS edits, but since I'm an avid player I have a hard time looking at super realistic stuff in the rest of the mm world features and sims.

Do you cheat when your sims gain weight? 

Nah. If I picture them being worried about their image/health, I try to make them lose weight or become fit with in-game features (mods included).

Do you use move objects? 

Yup!

Favorite mod?

UI cheats!

First expansion/game/stuff pack you got? 

Seasons

Do you pronounce “live mode” like aLIVE or LIVing? 

Like the second one, hehe.

Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made? 

Most of my story sims have a special spot in my wrinkly heart because I play with them so often and I become attached, but some of my special favourites are Yellow, Grumpy, Wes, Maleficent (still not seen), Annie and Plum.

Have you made a simself? 

Yup, but I've never really played with it. I don't know, not my thing I guess.

What sim traits do you give yourself? 

Paranoid (I'm always worrying about my entire existence), glutton, clumsy, creative, loves outdoors, loves animals, socially awkward.

Which is your favorite EA hair color? Brown, tbh.

Favorite EA hair? 

The short bob that was recently added in a sims delivery! The one with it's roots dyed.

Favorite life stage? 

Toddlerhood (?). They're soft and squishy and cute and-

Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay? I actually enjoy both a lot! I'm not a great builder, but since I learnt a thing or two I'm more than happy to make builds/houses that fit my gameplay better!

Are you a CC creator?

Uuuhhh I've done a few conversions, poses and recolors, but no. I consider fully myself a storyteller

Do you have any simblr friends/a sim squad? 

I've never been a friend squad kind of person but I do have some mutuals I consider as friends!

What’s your favorite game? 

TS4 (please don't shoot me)

Do you have any sims merch?

Ño, but I'm opening a crochet ETSY shop soon and I plan to make some, huehuehue

Do you have a YouTube for sims?

Nooo, I'm shy. Maybe I'll give it a try as soon as I move out on my own.

How has your “sim style” changed throughout your years of playing?

I think I kind of managed to beat the same face syndrome most of my sims had the first years I played the game (I didn't join simblr then), and I definitely found a pair of skins and details that I use consistenly on my simmies, so they look less wonky. Since I also embraced MM CC and vanilla items, most of them look more in sync with the game visuals.

What’s your Origin ID?

Rubispinus

Who’s your favorite CC creator? 

Pyxis, simmandy, sentate, and littlebowbub. Of course there are tons more, but they are the first in line and I hoard everything they create, hehe.

How long have you had a simblr? 

Since late 2020 

How do you edit your pictures? 

My GShade preset does almost all the work, honestly. For story posts, I plop the pics in a PS template I made and add the captions, and for the gameplay posts I also have another templates that fit my other format. I add some text, stickers or overlays, run topaz clean and boom. I use ezgif.com for the gifs :D

What expansion/game/stuff pack do you want next? 

Something medieval or pirate related, or some other occults like fairies and zombies. Honestly I'll take anything that'll add gameplay features. (I would also like a pack refresh for the mermaids, they suuuuck)

What expansion/game/stuff pack is your favorite so far? 

It's a tie between jungle adventure and paranormal stuff!

Also same anon here, just in general what do you imagine they look like? I like to get ideas for how i imagine them from other people

anon you know how long i’ve been waiting for someone to ask me???? IVE BEEN WAITING FOR CENTURIES.

percy: i’ve kind of always considered him to be brown actually! from mexico! i’ve always seen him as latino, so he has like brown skin. he has short black hair that falls into his forehead & his eyes from the front. he’s pretty tall, like 5′10-6′0. i’ve kind of always imagined him to be lean - he has muscles, but they’re not totally visible when he wears shirts or anything. he has kind squishy cheekbones and a really mischievous grin. you know he’s going to get you in trouble. but his grin is really intimidating - you sometimes feel like he’s judging you. he has really stormy dramatic eyes. they kinda look as though they’re swirling, like there’s a storm inside him that’s just waiting to let loose the moment he snaps. you do not want to mess with him. when he’s older, he probably gets a few tattoos over his arms, most likely things to do with the ocean. i think he’d dye his hair for a little while too! maybe try to get that gray streak back, and it would be that shock of hair that falls into his eyes. he’s got some dramatic dark lips imo - they’re probably a bit plump. he also has dramatic full eyebrows. 

annabeth: she has like semi-long curly blond hair. if she straightens it, it looks fairly long but since it’s curly, it’s about mid-length on her. gray eyes. some-what full pink lips ig? she definitely has muscles!! she’s not skinny at all - i think her muscles are more prominent than percy’s are, actually. she has tannish skin ig. i definitely see her as pretty tall, just about percy’s height. she’s got average-size lips and her eyebrows aren’t as prominent. 

piper: dark skin and brown eyes. she has a lean muscle figure (like percy) (and especially after she does a lot of training because i feel like she’d really want to get muscles??). layered hair (klsdflkjsfkljd im so gay for her hair laksjdlkfd). brown/black hair. a sharp nose, probably aquiline. i would say average-sized lips. full dramatic eyebrows as well though they’d be a little less full than percy’s. 

jason: ah, yes, my white bread. he has a pretty pale complexion, definitely whiter than annabeth, and blond hair. it’s a little more neat than percy’s but he has some hair that kind sticks out front, especially when he hasn’t cut it. probably a strong jawline and i see him a little buffer than percy. i feel like any time you look at him you feel like he’s actually high-key judging you because he’s kinda intimidating and all serious-like. average lips but his eyebrows are a little bit arched like he’s kinda embarrassed by you. 

leo: dark skin, a little bit darker than percy’s. he’s got a really mischievous grin like percy as well, but his is more joke-y like he’s constantly laughing at a joke that’s ringing in his head. he probably gets a few tattoos on his forearms when he’s older, and also one on the back of his neck. curly dark brown/black hair, of course, and probably long nimble fingers. his hair is short and it also falls into his eyes, but from the front - it's just a bunch of curls that poof up right over his forehead. sharp eyebrows.

hazel: dark brown skin and brown eyes. curly hair that i think gets longer when she’s older, and i’d like to think that she starts putting it up into a lot more styles when she’s older! she starts dressing much more goth (because nico definitely had an impact on her okay i love goth hazel) and starts getting tattoos as well!! she gets them all over her arms. i’ve always seen her as pretty curvy. soft curvy eyebrows. 

frank: dark cropped hair (but not like a buzzcut). i still see him as chubby because like that whole transition thing that rick did with him... idk man i’ve always seen him as chubby. he’s hella tall and as nice as he is, he probably intimidates people as well. there’s a kindness to him, but he makes sure you know that if you’re not careful, he can get mad. dark brown eyes. they glimmer with kindness but, like percy, they’re kinda stormy - he’s been through shit and he will be harsh if you give him a reason to be. kinda full softly-curved eyebrows.

reyna: just like annabeth, i see her as really buff. she’s pretty tall and she has pretty dramatic eyebrows. i think they’re also pretty thick as well. brown skin. dark brown eyes. long brown hair with bangs that she totally rocks. her lips look kinda like pointy natural, like this: 

but they’re like darker. probbaly a pink-ish brown.

nico: dark silky hair that really just falls to the base of his neck and covers over his ears. i think as a result of not having a healthy diet and taking care of himself, he starts off pretty pale (like a pale olive color) but once he starts actually taking care of himself, his skin becomes more saturated again (like when he was younger). definitely becomes more olive. he has pretty thin lips imo but they turn into the prettiest smile. his lips are also like a really dark pink color. thin nose and dramatic eyebrows. his hair swishes into his eyes. oh, and dark brown eyes!! he’s skinny at first but when he starts eating more i think he starts to look more like he’s filling into himself. like he’s skinny to the point where you can see his veins but eventually he kinda fills himself up more and he looks really radiant :))) he also gets a bunch of tattoos, but not like sleeves. i think he’d get a bunch of randomly-placed tattoos on his arms and then have like a butterfly on teh back of his neck and then maybe a spine against his back or something?? also he has a light splash of freckles over his cheeks and nose. he also gets a nose piercing. wears rings all the time like the punk legend he is <33

will: when we first meet him, i honestly see him with like curly hair all over the place. when he gets older, though, i think it would turn wavier and longer, like just curling above the base of his neck (not as long as nico’s but like it’s definitely longer than before). the hair kind swishes into his eyes. blue eyes. kinda plump pink lips. he definitely gets a lot more tattoos when he’s older, especially like two whole-ass sleeves on his arms. he has some on his neck, too. tan skin, a tiny bit darker than annabeth. and i know that he’s technically described with a surfer’s body, but i keep thinking of him having some chub. i don’t know, i think it’s just kinda realistic. FRECKLES!!! all over his face and shoulders and neck!!!!! he has pink plump-ish lips that look kinda like this:

bear headphones hellooooooo. sung is a bearpuppy n would have considered pitching to have a puppy version too but would think there’s no way that would get thru bc it would require much more money than its worth. but THINK ABT IT. he’s a radio dj, he’s well known as a super idol fan, And he’s a bear. it’s perf. of these i think the middle left is closest to how im thinking of it but i’ll leave more detail for the hc below lol

word count: 438

so imagine those cat ear headphones, but it’s bear themed, and fuzzy

sung would want them to be comfy and wearable for longterm, so the sizing and squishies would be part of his product pitch

and the ear muffs would have cute bear faces most like the middle pic

he’d ideally like a couple of colors, the expected brown, a pink, and then white blue or black (all if dms wants to but he’d expect three to be the most, n Realistically expect if they went w this idea it would be just one bc,, less money. but he wants 3 or 5!)

he wouldn’t b expecting the kind of quality he has in his studio headphones bc that can get Really expensive, but i have raycons n i feel like thats the level of quality he Could get within the price range 4 sure

wouldn’t b the best but for casual listening it’s dope. if they didn’t end up being real shit quality sung would wear a pair of these to airports.  imagine his fans being like we match~ im not a fan of those selfie day things but this wOULD be great for that,, tbf,,,,,,,,

 anyway for the product pitch

idk if ive said it on dash or if it’s just in my dms but sung is a powerpoint FIEND when it comes to dms meetings

that vibe of ppl that are like ‘least im using my art degree for something’ but that’s sung w growing up primed to b a business heir

no it doesnt suit him at all but Yes he learned a lot and that means he’s gonna be professional n business-y as shit to have a better shot at them doing what he wants

any time he’s tried to convince dms to stop doing smth for him too, powerpoint time lol

i’m gonna post a lil fake ppt about this below so i dont wanna overexplain too much but for what wont show up in ss,, sung’s style w these powerpoints is to come off professional for the most part

it’s a tactic to convince, so it won’t be him letting his full personality out

BUT he wants it to be semi fun for him lol he’ll b more loose w things that arent so strict like this as product pitches (ie album concept pitches) but for this, his fun would come in the little ways

like transitions may be stars swiping across the page or he’ll attempt at some form of jokes here and there when explaining (tho honestly he should keep the jokes out they’re only harming his pitch smh)

PPT 

(or parts of it because it’s difficult and awkward to make and takes a Lot of space for each slide)

btwn here he’d have a section talking about headphones generally, introducing the topic that he’ll be on, then go on to talk about the popularity boom that wireless headphones had (i am Not doing research like he would i just know the beats -> every other headphone brand was a Big thing that’s since become less of a big thing,,)

he’s very source driven, does a lot of research for his charts

talking abt the popularity of cat headphones from twitch streamers

a more vague conclusion page in here would talk about the interest filling that gap, and would segue into sung’s design idea

idt he’d think bear headphones exist so he’d present it as earmuffs + headphones. he’d go on to talk about why bears and headphones represent his image/brand, some slides he would have hated making about his sellability as it comes to brands he has promoted for, as well as things he owns that are bear themed that had spikes in selling after he used them. ofc this applies to any idol, but he’d feel it was important in a business context to point out why this is the Right choice. he’d tie back to sun’s goodnight, and his image growing into that of a music producer as well, saying that it applies to a deeper meaning for the fans who care about his side projects, and lighter ones who just like him being a bear in their eyes, as well as generally is a cute design that could apply to non fans. he would also go into detail of research on sound quality, design re: comfortability, and the more aesthetic ideas of what he’s thinking (the fuzz, the face, the colors), as well as price margins in all of those areas, compared against prices margins of similar headphones
