MY FIFTIETH WORK ON AO3 ! COME READ IT !

[blxkstar]

I made a playlist for all the magical (both fantasy and real) girly vibes. Whether you are in a moid for mermaids, fairies, nymphs, sirens, witches, or any other magical beings, this is the playlist for you. Please check it out!!

[always-a-king-or-queen]

something I really love about the Narnia movies is that all of the posters and film covers portray the Pevensies as incredibly serious and moody

when in reality they're four sarcastic beans who most of the time are arguing about silly things and who probably relish pranking each other a little too much

[mithrilbookofmystery]

hyperfixations do hell to the brain I've become so convinced of my Edmund frostbite headcanon that I was genuinely surprised to see art of him in the golden age with all of his fingers intact. what is wrong with me

[angstyastro]

New toy 🥹 baby Astro is very excited. I could only dream about having a tablet/drawing pad this big before so I’m so excited to make new and better stuff soon ❤️

[olenvasynyt]

Which movie fits my vibe?

I got tagged in this ages ago but I forgot to post it.

rules: list your five all time favorite films and have people vote on which best fits your vibe.

These are basically all my personalities lmao. Thank you for tagging me @zenkindoflove! Someone else tagged me but I can't find it I'm sorry

No pressure tags: @ataraxiasflame, @luciensdefenseattorney @little-fierling , @crazy-ache

[lazybtchneedstostudy]

I just had the thought of “Watership down is to felidae what lord of the rings is to narnia haha hihi” but then I remembered that neither the lord of the rings or narnia had graphic sex scenes between literal fucking cats, so maybe felidae is just on its own here

[itsahotminuteinbetween]

I imagine Sun n’ Moon don’t really talk much in person, mostly cuz their goals are...very different. That, and that Sun would prefer to stay as far away from Afton as possible. Essentially, whenever Moon and Sun meet, it doesn't tend to go well. (Keep in mind that both Sun and Moon value the safety and security of children.) Sun tries to resist the urge to take the humans and add them to Afton's collection because he sees it as immoral and wrong. He hates Afton because he knows what Afton does to them: he'll turn them to stone, take all the innocence and wonder left, and crush it between his fingers. Meanwhile, Moon doesn't see that part of the goal. He genuinely believes that the safest course of action is to take the human to the 'statue garden', as he likes to call it, and protect them. He doesn't really care what Afton does. All he knows is that the children started crying-he never understood why they started crying. There was nothing to be afraid of, and if there was, he would protect them from it-and then there was silence.

It's always silent in the statue garden.

I want to quickly emphasize that if I don’t answer your ask when I respond to it, if I make a joke, etc, I’m not trying to be mean. I like interacting with y’all via my inbox, I do. I just find it a little silly when I get asked about things I have no interest in after stating that lack of interest multiple times ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[parfaitblogs]

i NEED a angst fic (with a happy ending ofc) based on tolerate it by taylor swift please 🙏 big chance it’s been done before though and im just the most unoriginal bitch ever

tolerate it ❀ s. reid x reader

in which spencer reid gets out of prison, and you baselessly feel like your relationship is growing increasingly one sided.  pairing: spencer reid x reader genre: angst tags: post prison reid. neglectful bf spencer reid. happy (open) ending. communication yippee. themes of self doubt in reader. mentions of spencer not eating.  word count: 2k a/n: writers block isn't real you just need to watch criminal minds season 12 episode 13 'spencer' and then listen to tolerate it on repeat for three hours straight. iiii know human beings don't talk in long monologued speeches but for the sake of my sanity let us pretend i am shakespeare and spencer reid is my leontes. plzzzz tell me if u liked this or if u didn't yay thank u ily

i sit and watch you. i notice everything you do, or don't do. (lines 3–4)

A fork scrapes against ceramic. It emits a scratching sound that hurts your ears, and you're cringing from your curled up position on the couch as you hear it. Silverware shines beneath the bright, warm glow of his kitchen light, his food barely dented as he pushes it around his plate. 

He's been playing with it since he sat down to eat it. 

You're not too sure what's going through his head as he takes barely there bites of a meal you cooked. You don't think you want to know. But it takes him all of twenty three minutes to come to the same conclusion he made last night, and every other night before that. That he isn't going to eat any more of the food, and just like his fork, his chair scrapes against the floor as he stands. 

He wraps the plate in aluminium foil, the crinkling of metal being your only indicator that he has plans to eat it later. At least, that's what you hope. 

When he disappears into the bedroom, you follow him. Like a lovesick puppy, you're trailing after him, and your chest feels hollow with how embarrassing it all is. 

He doesn't know you're watching him, though. 

At least, not to the extent you are. He's field trained enough to know that you're keeping an eye on him, but your silence is only indicative of you giving him the space he so politely asked for three days ago. He's not in his right mind to assume you're silent for any other reason, and you've battled to a loss with the thoughts of letting him into your disaster of a brain. 

He doesn't need to know that.

The ensuite door shuts behind him, and you hear the water turn on minutes later. You take the cue to curl up on your side of the bed, your fingers toying with the paper edges of a book you now had in your lap. The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, for you were rediscovering your love for children's novels amongst this trying time between you and Spencer. 

"Hey, did you buy me more shampoo?"

Your head lifts at the voice, the snowy Narnia world you had built in your brain shattering in an instant, as you're met with the dull colours of Spencer Reid's bedroom, and a showered and dressed Spencer Reid standing only a few feet away. His bedroom hadn't always been dull. Really, nothing had actually changed artistically within it to make it dull. But there's something about no longer laughing in a room once filled with so much love that mutes its vibrance. 

"Yeah," you say, dog-earing the page you were on and slipping it onto the nightstand. "I saw you were running low."

His lips part as he exhales, and you hate that you can tell he's pushing away something snippy. It wasn't that he was actively trying to start fights with you, but his temper has grown short, and he has more anger in his heart than before. 

"You didn't get the right one, that's all."

And though it isn't said rudely, your chest opens up like a black hole regardless, and a thick ball of emotion lodges in your throat.

"I'm sorry," you force past your lips, despising the hollow sound of your sad voice, and the fact that he notices it. His eyebrows frown towards each other at the sound of you, and he takes a step towards the bed.

It's pathetic, right? To be this upset over him letting you know the thing you bought him wasn't correct. In that almost fake sounding soft, kind voice he has when he is trying to keep his unnecessary frustration at bay. 

But it wasn't like this was the first time you'd done something for him in recent, and been told you did it wrong, instead of simply being thanked. Acts of service he was finding problems within no matter what they were, each new critique chipping away at the scales of your self confidence. You don't even think he's meaning to do it.

Every time this happens, memories of the other times flash violently in your head, reminding you that he could not find the beauty of being cared for by you the way he had before this. This, this thing you were barely even able to string the letters of together, because it seemed so foreign and faraway to you. Spencer Reid in prison is not a sentence that makes sense in this — or any other — timeline. You don't think it ever will. And yet.

You'd cooked him meals every single day since he got out. Meals he'd barely ever touch, wrap in foil, then put in the fridge for his work lunch the next day. You don't know if he's even eating them at work, or if he's just taking them there to throw them out. You've been too scared to reach out to any of his team members to ask. Knowledge is power, but knowledge makes his negligence all too real. 

There's a fear in calling it negligence. It isn't fair of you to expect the same man before and after prison, and you know he's dealing with more than you can fathom. You were prepared for distance. 

Just not this much.

The submerged sound of your name tugs you from your thoughts, and suddenly Spencer is closer than he was before, and he's repeating your name over and over in calling. Once you rapidly blink and shake your head, he determines you've returned to Earth, and he's falling silent again. There's concern knitting his eyebrows together, and he's got his hands hovering in the air, as if he's reaching for you, but second guessing himself at the same time. 

"Whats going on in your brain?" he asks you after a few beats of the two of you just staring at each other. 

Like a dam breaking, his question triggers an onslaught of emotions, and every fear and insecurity you've had inside you spills out.

"I feel like you suddenly hate me," your eyes rapidly search the duvet in front of you for your words. "Or—or I annoy you with my presence? Or my care? I mean, I try to do things for you and you barely even spare them a second glance, or thought. You barely talk to me anymore outside of updating me on your schedule. We sleep with miles of distance between us," you gesture to the bed beside you. "I cook you meals you don't eat, I wash your clothes you don't fold. Both of which are things that I'm fine with, because I can't imagine how skewed your appetite is, and I—I know laundry is a trigger now. But there is not even a slight hint of you—you being thankful. You know, appreciative. I feel like I'm following you around like a servant, and I'm doing things with no gratitude in return. I'm doing things I shouldn't have to, because I'm your girlfriend. Not your maid. But they are things that I want to do, because I care for you, and I love you," you pause, a self deprecating smile appearing on your face. "And—and you haven't even told me you love me since the day we got you home. Do you even love me, still? No, don't answer that. I don't think I want to know. I mean, I do. I don't know. God, Spencer, can you say something?"

He doesn't. For a long while, he stares at you, and you train your eyes on the pattern on the bedding you're currently sitting under. His gaze is pulverising, and every second that passes is another limb turning to dust beneath it. His silence should be enough of an answer for you. Yet, you hold onto groundless hope still.

It feels like eternity has passed you by, by the time you hear his voice again.

"I don't mean to make you think I don't love you," he says. "I do love you. Which feels meaningless to confess to you now, knowing how you feel, and I wish my expansive knowledge of words could come up with a confession that does justice to how you feel, but also makes you feel better. I can only hope you take it at face value, and don't assume I'm saying it because it's what you want me to say." 

He finds a seat on the bed in front of you, fingers fidgeting with each other as he fixates on the wooden flooring in front of him. 

"I am grateful for everything you've done for me recently. I'm sorry I haven't expressed that. I'm having a hard time putting one foot in front of the other, let alone stringing together sensical thoughts. I wish I could tell you what my mind sounds like without feeling guilty about it. It isn't nice, and every thought I have is far from positive," he lifts his eyes to you, and you watch in real time as they soften, for the first time since he came home. "I will tell you that there's you. Among every awful thought and feeling I have, there is you. I think I... I think I've been coming across as ungrateful because you are a breath of relief after every bad thought and feeling. Am I making sense?" you nod your head, and he sighs in, namely, relief. "I take a step back from processing my emotions and figuring out how I'm going to talk about them with that bureau therapist when I think about you, because you are the one good thing I have to hold on to. So I just bask in the thought of you, or the sight of you, and focus on nothing else."

You aren't sure when you began to cry, and you only realise it when you have to sniffle before speaking. "You can focus on so many things at once, though." 

"Not anymore," he admits, looking back down. "I don't know what's happened. I've gone from having a brain that works inhumanly — which is objectively an incorrect statement, but I digress — to one that cannot multitask on two separate things at once." 

"Oh," you whisper. "I see."

"I'm so sorry I've made you feel as though your efforts go unnoticed, honey," he murmurs. "They don't. This has just been really difficult."

"I know," you say, wiping your tear stained face with the back of your hand. 

There's a part of you that wants this to be the end of it. The end of self doubt, and distance, and instead the beginning of your relationship rebuilding itself alongside Spencer. 

There's a larger, more logical part of you, that knows you cannot just sweep every self conscious doubt under the rug and move on. 

"I just want some time," you tell him, and his shoulders tense as you speak. "Not to—not to break up. Or even for us to have a break. I don't want that. I've just felt very... unloved. Like you're merely tolerating my presence in your life. And now, I know you aren't. But I have to find my confidence in myself in this relationship again before I can move on."

"Okay," his voice is strained as he speaks, and you know he's not exactly content with your request for space.

You try not to focus on that, in order to stand firm in your decision. 

That is where the conversation ends. And just like every other night, he climbs into bed and leaves a considerable amount of distance between your two bodies. You choose not to dwell on it, because this is now him giving you the space you so politely requested. You were catastrophising, and you'd be damned if you let such a thing control your life any longer. 

It maybe wasn't all in your head, but you still had to take the self doubt shaped dagger from your stomach out.

now i'm begging for footnotes in the story of your life. (line 30)

milf (man i love fantasy)

[chaaistained]

hi chaai! do you have any ideas on where to shift to?

ideas on where to shift .*+

.

.

.

we’ll get the obvious out of the way, there are many different locations you can shift to anon !! and i personally don’t know what your interests and hyperfixations are :( but ! i still want to help in any way i can ≈ so here are a list of general ideas and suggestions and maybe some inspo into different realities to which you (any of you!) can shift !! and ofcs you can tweak it all to your liking xx

sink into self indulgence …

—» shifting at its core is self indulgent and the first example i can think of is your favourite childhood books, movies and shows — the kind of self indulgence where you go back to what made your life sparkle as a child, what made you believe in the impossible, what made you wish the impossible was real, whether it’s fairies, dragons, mermaids, or monsters going to high school, you should take a trip down memory lane and figure out what had you rushing to finish your meal to go watch the latest episode, or work hard at your homework so you could buy the next edition of the game. there’s also the media consumed in your teenage years, the kinds of media that helps you feel like you were escaping and yet at the same time like you were understood

examples include : hogwarts , narnia , my little pony , monster high , ever after high , how to train your dragon , percy jackson and the olympians , h2o , pixie hollow , barbie fairytopia/mermaidia , hilda , bridge to terabithia , wizards of waverley place , minecraft , power rangers , tmnt , disney princesses , little women , gilmore girls , studio ghibli , etc.

—» there are also the realities where you play a part in the bigger picture, you are a significant piece in a vast and intricate puzzle, you stand among your peers, your friends, as someone to be recognised, maybe you’re looking for some thrill? some excitement? some sort of battle or mystery or revolution where you can fight for the underdog or reclaim some form of power — be careful if you do choose to explore these places, but i’m sure you’ll handle it just fine

examples include : marvel/mcu/the avengers/spiderverse , dc/justice league/the arrowverse/smallville , the hunger games , the walking dead , arcane , supernatural , teen wolf , the maze runner , the vampire diaries , pretty little liars , gossip girl , mean girls , outer banks , criminal minds , brooklyn nine nine , the rookie , dune , star wars , avatar: the last airbender , james cameron’s avatar , jurassic park/world , pirates of the caribbean , twilight , etc.

—» conversely, your dr doesn’t even need to be fantastical, sometimes, the things that bring us comfort are in fact the most relaxing, they slow our lives down for whatever time we spend engaging in them, they let us unwind and unravel any burden we’ve unknowingly put on ourselves, the dr doesn’t even need to be based on some form of media, it could be your dream life and/or career

examples include : better cr (HIGHLY RECOMMEND) , cafe/barista , librarian , farmer , florist , artist , museum curator , boarding school , summer camp , bookstore owner , writer , painter , photographer , chef , designer , animator , game developer , director , etc.

—» but maybe you would like a career in the spotlight, where you can finally show the world what you’re capable of, the talent and skills that you know are innate to your being and you just need the opportunity to showcase it

examples include : actor , pop star , band member , kpop idol , youtuber , broadway singer , talk show host , dancer , professional athlete , model , travel vlogger , socialite , royalty , etc.

.

.

.

when all is said and done, shifting is inherently a form of self love, you’re picking yourself and you’re choosing to shift and experience a reality that will fulfil you in some way !! the ideas in this post are not the limit, there is no limit, [cue mean girls’ “the limit does not exist” scene] so let your creativity take control and let yourself indulge in what makes you happy

Download zips (package files): Mediafire | SimFileShare

Descriptions & pics under the cut:

Most of this stuff's pretty clear-cut, but I wanted to just explain a few quick things.

The Alfheim Light Crystals, Bifrost, Idunn Apple, and The Light all have Fullbright, so they always glow, even if you turn the lights off. (The Idunn Apple mesh is a wee too big for my liking, but oh well.)

Coin Piles 3 | 4 (§10,000, ANI Moneybag Script REQUIRED) (found in Hobbies/Skills)

Shoutout to @thecardinalsims at MTS for helping me with these! 👍

Fully recolorable, these 2 coin piles cost 1 simoleon, but when your sims scoop them up, they get 10k! You're welcome! 🤑💰

Elven "Family" Lock as Decor (Animated)

Fully recolorable. This was cloned from a clock, so the pieces turn as the big/little hands turn on EA's clocks. I've never actually caught it at the right time when all the pieces properly align, esp. since I use the Time Mod like crazy and never really know what time it is in-game.

Giant/Not So Giant Leaves

Fully recolorable, found under Plants. These leaves are HUGE, which is why I added a smaller version, cuz jfc. 😅

Jotnar Shrines as Wardrobe (10k Polys) (SN EP REQUIRED)

I apologize in advance for these. I don't really intend for them to be used as EA dressers--I just wanted something with open/closed door animations (so alas, I also had to squeeze the mesh down to fit EA's dimensions). But by god these are dumb AF if your sim actually tries to rifle around inside for clothes (which I ofc removed)--

--or Aesir forbid, they actually enter it to hide/portal travel to Narnia/woohoo. 😬 There is NOTHING on the other side, so your sim WILL be seen floating like a doofus behind the mesh (through the walls).

Anyways, if you pause your game during the .5 seconds that the doors are ever open, you'll be graced with all the effing hard work I went through to add as many Jotnar panel variations as possible:

In order: Bergelmir, Hrungnir, Jormungandr, Skadi, Skoll & Hati, Starkadr, Surtr, Thrym, Tyr1, Tyr2, Ymir (sorry, no Groa U_U).

Lemnos Juice/Wine as Drinkable Beverage (ARSIL MOD REQUIRED)

The juice is regular kid-friendly juice, but the wine is strong alcohol only for adults (*cough* Kratos wtf were you thinking giving your kid 1000yr old alcohol to drink, someone call CPS on this fool! *cough*). So now your Spartan sims of all ages can safely & responsibly enjoy sippin on gin & juice~! 🥂 As always, the mesh clipping into their faces is out of control, but oh well.

Lyre as Guitar

Fully recolorable variation included. NOT a fan of where the fingers sit (esp. for kids), but OH WELL.

Nornir Chest as Land Chest (IP EP REQUIRED) (found in Debug)

Fully recolorable variation included. For some strange reason, I couldn't clone the WA EP chests (which I prefer), but thank goodness IP has a land chest I could use instead. (IIRC you can set it with all kinds of treasures with testingcheatsenabled true and/or Nraas' DebugEnabler or something, IDER.)

Rock Face as Wall Climbing (found in Hobbies/Skills)

This is based on the rock climbing station at the EA Store, but you DON'T need it for this one to work!

Comes in different fully recolorable variations, with/without Faye's "Yellow Paint" guiding the way.

Scroll Case as 2-Storey Bookcase (20k Polys)

Fully recolorable variation included. Yes. I know. The polys are insane. I decimated as many as I could, but AAA games are just so effing high poly. U_U

And that's that!

Happy New Year, and enjoy!

introduction to my shiftblr

Hi, ladyrohan here! tho you can call me Whiskers if you want, as It is one of my nicknames from some of my DRs. Im 21 years old and I've been on shiftblr for a couple of months now but my shifting journey has been way longer. It all started on that fatidic summer of 2020 thanks to tiktok. Suddently this crying girl promised to her audience that she has been to Hogwarts and ofc i couldnt really deny It. It had to be real.

If you are curious about me im an aquarius infj so im basically watching everything from the shadows 😶‍🌫️ but i love you guys.

Warnings: As you will notice i tend to involve the marauders&co in every reality i can. Im not a native english speaker so have mercy on me, i beg you. Im also a raging feminist and i support the lgbtq+ community. Free palestine btw 🇵🇸. If you don't agree then dont read my blog, you are free to leave.

Some of my main DRs.

Hogwarts in the marauders era. The classic. The og. The oldest and somehow the one i have never truly abandoned. It always returns, no matter what. There have been little changes but essentially It was the same as in 2020. It has a very special place in my heart, not only because of the people –tho It is one of the main reasons why i LOVE It dearly–, but because It was with this one that i had my first "minishift" (It was a shift for a couple of seconds, but a shift anyway) for the first time back in 2022.

Camelot. Originally inspired by @kerryshifts Dr because of the vibes ngl. But also ALSO the show and the legend have a place in my heart, It just screams childhood. i wanted magic, medieval vibes and long dresses. Doesn't follow exactly the plot, but the people are there.

My better cr (+marauders). This one is a bit personal but i added my Friends from my marauders era in here because i wanted a chill life outside of the Hogwarts academic chaos –tho you never really escape the chaos when it comes to the marauders anyway–. Summer witchy vibes (Practical Magic!!!), small town, nature, friends, pets and music, what else can i say.

Other DRs i scripted: dead poets society. because i have a hero complex and neil and todd are my beloved // the winx just screams childhood and i wanted to be a fairy so bad (flora my dear <33) // lord of the rings. i would love to live in the shire and eventually meet everyone (tho i scripted no sauron because i dont want to fight lol) // Narnia. No further explanation at this point. It just feels right to my inner child. // the roman republic because we are an empire slander (sorry not sorry), I study history what do you want me to say. // Bridgerton. A girl loves a period drama.

Planning on doing one for H2O+marauders (because why not, i love my people i wont apologize for it), Brave Dr (shooting arrows and being with merida sounds right to me), Genovia+Spiderman+marauders (hear me out!! 🗣️ it all started because of a girl on tiktok recreating how would the marauders react if james potter was spiderman. Let me just say... exciting enough🍷, tho mia thermopolis is my best friend, i dont feel like ruling a kingdom myself).

I might create an entry for each one but this is everything for today.

thank you, merci, gracias, danke, grazie, obrigada, tak, dik, hvala, gràcies, diolch, multumesc, شكراً, 감사, शुक्रिया, ありがとう...

[foursaints]

do you have any tips on how to read more? i love when you post about books 💌

i'm so glad you asked! this is one of my favorite topics... reading consistently can seem so daunting when youre managing adhd. i used to read so many books as a kid and always felt guilty when this changed as i got older. and that's natural! but over the last ~5 years i can confidently say i've been reading as much as i used to back then. these are my executive-dysfunction-friendly reading tips:

#1: start small when i haven't been reading consistently for a while, often i'll pick up whatever Dense Literary Novel i want to read and get frustrated at my lack of attention span. i'll think, "i used to finish whole books in a day as a kid" and beat myself up. but when you were a kid, you were reading kid's books that were designed to be fun and easily digestible!!! ofc its not the same!! it's truly like training a muscle. if you notice you're in a slump, start small! pick up the books you read back then, and get back into the habit of reading consistently. if my true goal is to read Brothers Karamazov or whatever, i'll start with narnia or matilda or ella enchanted. once i feel comfortable with the amount im reading, i make the switch to my "real" book and my attention span has naturally bounced back (for whatever reason i've noticed this doesn't work as well with fanfiction). #2: ebooks are your best friend  are you ever doomscrolling and you think "this would be the perfect time to get up and read"? for me the flow of putting down my phone -> getting up -> finding my book -> finding a comfortable reading position -> finding my concentration -> turning the pages is just so so much harder than continuing to scroll. this is where the ebooks come in. you can find basically anything for free on lib.gen or z-lib, and switching tabs over to ibooks just feels much simpler. and it still feels like scrolling, which tricks your brain!!! when i wake up and immediately grab my phone, i switched to scrolling whatever ebook i've been reading for an hour instead of social media #3: "shot & chaser" lately i've been getting really into having two books going at once, usually one that's electronic & another that's physical. i read the physical one before bed and during allotted "reading times", but i can chip away at the one on my phone whenever throughout the day. typically it's helpful if one of these two is more "serious" (i.e. the shot) and the other is a lighter read (i.e. the chaser). either way you're making progress no matter what mood you're in, and you're keeping yourself in the habit.

i hope this helps! algorithms are your enemy! pirate everything! libraries are free! get back into reading books!
