My fic in Sims 4 ... (part 4)
(As usual, warning about possible uncanny valley effects!! xD)
I recreated OT5 and several of the locations in WBSMF in Sims ...
Part 4 - Harry and Niall's LA house (from chapter 22):
In Sims I built it all on one floor. This was also one of my very first builds, and somehow I just couldn't figure out how to make two floors look good ^^; And then I just got used to it like this. :3
Exterior views
(At the time I couldn't figure out how to put an iron gate in front of the front door?? Or I didn't have enough game/content packs or something to get a suitable iron gate.)
The living room/music room
Louis playing the piano
The kitchen - with the mosaic in the floor, too :3
Patio and pool
Harry floating like a mermaid in the pool ♥
In the foyer towards the dining room
And towards the living room
Harry's bedroom, walk-in closet and bathroom. All the furnishings in the closet are on the walls, so they disappear in the 'walls down' modes ... ^^;

Bonus 1: Harry's room in Edinburgh
I built a version of Harry's flat share in Edinburgh, but it didn't come out nice enough - that was another of my early builds.
And I haven't felt like doing it over now that I have more skills and custom content at my disposal - mainly because due to the limitations of the game, it's not possible to furnish Harry's room like it's supposed to be, with the loft bed over the door, so why bother ... :|
(I guess one possible solution would be to make the whole flat over two storeys, so Harry's bed would be on the upper level, and the rest of the room would be open to below. But while the flat does have high ceilings, that would be much too extreme xD)
Here is one end of his room, but it's looking really bleak and cramped and not cosy like it's supposed to be! There should be more stuff and pictures and fairy lights all over ... :3

Bonus 2: autumn fun
Louis playing in the leaves while Ziam walk by
Larry just figured out that they can 'woo-hoo' in the leaves, but then Liam came over and started playing in them ...
So Larry found some other leaves!
Afterwards, Louis started playing one of the guitars in his inventory, and Harry went on his phone.
(To be continued ...)

Whoever Loves Her Next - 01
There is a part of me that can’t believe what I’m seeing. This test isn’t like the others. There wasn’t a solid, bold line followed by the faint outline of another. This one only showed one word. A confirmation of what my fear had been for the last three weeks.
I’m pregnant.
The tears came faster than I thought they would. I disregard the test onto the edge of the sink and begin to pace. This was really happening, and there was no going back now. What we had done that morning was now permanently engraved into me, not just in my mind, but in my body. Something is growing within me. A child.
I didn’t realize how loud I had been crying until I heard a knock on the door, followed by my name.
“Bri?”
Another person is the last thing I want to see right now, but I know Mason would never stand for letting me cry in the bathroom alone. So, I weakly open the door to let him inside.
His eyes almost immediately find the pregnancy test on the sink, which then quickly dart to me, wide with shock. I hang my head in what feels like shame, my whole body seeming to cave in on itself. I can barely even breathe.
I know Mason is talking to me as he rests his hands on my arms, but I can’t hear a word he is saying. He moves me backwards until I sit on the edge of the bathtub, where he then crouches down to try and look at me. I can’t bear to look back at him.
He is trying to be comforting by talking to me slowly, but that only reminds me more of my predicament and the person who had helped put me in this position. He is basically known for being a slow talker. I’m one of the few who knows it’s because he always wanted to make sure he was saying the right thing at the right time. I don’t know how I’ll ever tell him when I know the right time will never come.
I stay in the bathroom with Mason for a little while longer, but eventually tell him that my ass hurts from the hard porcelain of the bath, so we decide to move out to the couch in the living room. My crying has calmed slightly from what it had been, but my tears have yet to subside. It feels like my body is on fire. I can hardly stand to be touched, so I pull away when Mason rests a hand on my shoulder.
Shortly after this, he says, “You have to tell him. You have to go see him. You know that, right?”
My hands cover my face, the tears leaking out faster at the thought. The idea of seeing him again makes me sick, but I don’t have another choice, so I settle for an “I know.”

My fic in Sims 4 ... (part 1)
(Sorry in advance about possible uncanny valley effects lol!! And, yeah, I'm so sorry ... in general, for all of this xD)
I recreated OT5 and several of the locations in WBSMF in Sims ...
Part 1 - Harry, Zayn, Liam and Niall's house share in Shepherd's Bush:
Exterior views
(Only now I realised that a piece of the hedge in the front yard has gone missing lol, so the mailbox is standing weirdly on its own like that)
Next to it on the same lot is some kind of composite building with Louis' Ealing flat, Harry's Edinburgh flat, the first union office in the subterranean level, and Louis' Lewisham flat in one building, so they can visit all of them on the same lot and don't have to travel/load a new location for each of them. And there's a yoga/massage studio on the ground floor, just because ^^
Downstairs - the house is a very typical Victorian terrace house. Here it stands on its own though ... And there wasn't enough room on the lot to include a proper back garden like they have in the fic. (I suppose I could set it up between the two buildings instead!)
Zarry meet by the stairs.
Living room, 'activity room' (with a yoga mat), and hallway/staircase.
This was one of my very first builds in Sims, so it's not terribly pretty and doesn't have a lot of custom content that would make it look more realistic. ^^;
Zayn and his friends' art all over the walls everywhere ♥
Harry doing yoga in the 'activity room' ...
Liam comes to hang out by the fireplace. Fans have of course made custom tattoos for all of them to use in Sims ♥
Somehow I've really been struggling with Harry's face, while everyone else came out quite all right on the first try, at least for Sims standards. T^T
Probably because Harry's face is so special and unusual and a bit weird, and really beautiful - and a simple game like Sims just cannot contain it ... ♥
In the fic the fireplaces are all defunct, but here in Sims they are working. That makes their house even cosier ... :3
The gym that Liam and Zayn set up in the cellar. Victorian row houses usually have a narrow coal cellar that could originally be accessed from the street, too.
Harry's room and the bathroom he shares with Niall. He has a little portrait of Louis on his wall, that Zayn painted ♥
He has a double bed because in Sims two people can't share single beds :(
Zayn and Liam's room. One of their house mates has left his guitar there.
Zayn is of course a painter in Sims too! For some reason he's left handed.
He's painted many portraits of Liam ♥
One of Liam doing sit-ups
One of Liam sleeping
One of Liam in his work clothes (he works as a life guard ♥ because there's no fireman career)
Another one of Louis!
Louis has tried painting a bit, too :3
Harry in Ziam's fancy bathroom, with the yin-yang carpet ^^
By default, sims hang out in their pajamas a lot ... But I guess at least for Harry that's pretty realistic :3
Of course there's art on the walls in Ziam's bathroom, too ^^
Niall heading upstairs
Niall's room.
Zayn painted that portrait of Niall, too ♥
Eating popcorn in the kitchen - each with their own little bowl :3
Gayming
