#{and cause lags and glitches}

[tarnishedxknight]

{out of dalmasca} *flops and dies* Well, that sucked, heh. Sorry folks, work took... way longer than anticipated today. I'm just getting on now, but I'm really wiped, so I probably won't get too much done. I'll try to get something out, heh. But I'm still clear to write here tomorrow night (1/17).

[shower-racoon]

I just found a glitch in Angry Birds Star Wars II.

if you use Yoda's ability right as he's hit with an enemy's blaster shot, it kills EVERYTHING (all enemies, all physics objects, even the level geometry) and causes the game to lag very badly.

no idea why this happens, but you get a ton of score for it, and it's funny

[ajortga]

always for you

(shes so cute)

Jenna always thought you were too thoughtful and selfless, you always thought of others before yourself, you gave love to every person you possibly could before you could even love yourself.

You gifted Jenna the new black noise canceling headphones for Christmas, you loved music as much as she did. But even with your immense love, you still managed to have wired earphones, though they were tangled almost everyday. 

There was a day the brunette noticed the way your phone had been acting up. She won’t mention how you dropped it in the bathtub while trying to give your cat a bath, and she’ll leave out how it somehow didn’t crack the numerous times you dropped it on the table or carpet. But whenever she texted you, you’d take longer to respond, apologizing endlessly.

“goodmorning my love! my phone was glitching again, it keeps bringing me back to this stupid dancing vegetable i put on for nephew cash last week. It took me a while to finally get back to messages! i'm sorry:((.”

“oh my god it did it again, now it’s a piece of radish dancing”

Sometimes you’d respond halfway and then stop there too cause your phone would crash

"y/nnnn, baby, i used the damn salt for our cookies instead of sugar and i put so much and i wanted to make a pickup line for you. i was literally pretending you were there and said "you're as sweet as a cookie" and i bit into it and it tasted so salty and i coughed so much"

“HAHA oh my gosh your like the silliest person i know, you literally remind me of-”"

10 minutes later

“MY PHONE CRASHED AGAIN”

“it did it again, it kept bringing me to different tabs so i had to get back in here. baby i can’t even talk to you properly anymore, i think we should-”

25 minutes later

“THE DANCING VEGETABLE IS ON MY SCREEN AGAIN”

"jenna? are you there?"

"i amm here"

"IT'S FRUIT NOW"

"baby 😭"

-

She did talk to you about getting a phone, she knew that you wanted to spend your money on others until yourself. You saved a little portion for yourself, so your portion made you a little broke. But you insisted that if it still worked and was helping the way it was supposed to, it would be okay.

It was funny to her, she would try charging both your phones before you snuggled to sleep together, but she always struggled on charging your phone because it wouldn’t charge.

You could hear her grunting as she cursed under her breath, “You have to use the first charging port and twist it at an 80 degree angle to the right, the phone has to be facing up.”

As it finally charged, she made a small sigh and smiled as she looked at you, softly saying, “You’re always too thoughtful Y/N, there’ll be one day where life will give it all back to you.”

You nuzzled into her chest, “As long as I can make others happy, that’s all I need to make myself happy,” you said drowsily as you rested on her chest. She kissed your forehead as you dozed off, cradling you to sleep.

-

The next day, Jenna got up so early and unattached herself from your grasp, making you make a small noise as you subconsciously looked for her embrace.

The bed creaked as you made a small murmur, looking up at Jenna barely awake.

You yawned, really sleepy, “Where are you going??” You said sadly, a little tired pout forming.

You sounded so drowsy as Jenna giggled, kissing your temple, “I need to pick up some strawberries, we need some pancakes for our breakfast and some other goodies sunshine. It’ll be packed in the afternoon, it’ll be quick, I promise.”

You made a sad noise, your hands reaching up for her and scrunching her arms as she hugged you, taking her giant stuffed animal and letting you hold it.

Soon enough from her scent on the stuffy, you were asleep, snuggling it.

Jenna changed into a sweater, jeans, and wore her headphones you gave her as she was off.

She was going to buy you that phone, no matter what you said.

Her footsteps crunched against the leaves as she listened to her music, getting a new idea as a proud smile sneaked on her lips.

She entered the electronic store, buying you the latest white phone that she had as well. She also went to the head gear section and bought you Sony headphones, a white one that would look so pretty on you. Her fingers signed the signature as she payed with her card, buying you guys two matching phone cases with two black cats on them.

Two hours later she came home, opening your bedroom door as she walked in.

“Y/N, sunshine, I’m here,” she whispered as you made a small murmur again, opening your eyes.

“Mhh…”

A small grin appears on her face as she shows you the new phone and headphones as you stare.

You were so tired you stared at it in disbelief and confusion.

Then you looked at her, your eyes teary as you pouted, “Baby.. Why? You didn’t have to-”

“You deserve it, you always think about me and all your friends hardly before yourself. And you deserve the world. I want you to be able to use your phone and those headphones. I like seeing you happy.”

Your pout turned into a wide smile as you pulled her collar to your level and hugged her tightly.

“Thank you. You really didn’t have to do that for me," you said, your voice happy as you nuzzle into her, not wanting to let go.

“Always.”

“I love you.”

Jenna smiles, her soft lips pressing to your temple, "I love you too."

Reader x Edgar

Edgar is sick with a virus or something and reader has to take care of him.

Arg I’m so sorry this one is so darn short! I just really wanted to get a fic out today. I’m hoping i can get a better one out later this evening. Thanks for the request!! :>

In which Edgar gets a virus trying to suspiciously earn money for you on the internet… he’s not gonna tell you what he was doing. But it was probably a scam anyway. Poor fella 🥺

“Edgar,” you sighed, already exasperated at the sight before you. “What did I tell you about going on those websites? The internet is not the same as it used to be,” you scolded him gently, running your hands along his hot plastic.

He seemed hotter than usual, almost flushed. His fans had long since kicked into overdrive to accommodate his overclocked components, and his screen fizzled in and out with burning pixels. If you were honest with yourself, you were quite worried for him. Modern-day computers can get bricked with viruses quite easily, so an old 80s computer seemed like quite the disadvantaged target to you. Luckily, at the very least, modern computers weren’t equipped with a sentience that could drive the virus away through any means necessary. He just needed time.

“I’m sorry,” his speakers croaked and glitched as he nearly whispered. “I just wanted to help.” His synthesized voice nearly died on his metaphorical tongue as it sputtered out. Your eyes softened.

He seemed so genuine in his words and actions that you couldn’t help but feel your heart swell with warmth for him. He sat, somehow looking disheveled despite his immobility, on your little desk, peering up at you with guilt and sick-ridden eyes.

“I know you did, Ed. But you already help me enough as is—”

“But you need money, and—and I need to provide for you, don’t I?”

A puff of air escaped your nostrils.

“Well, who told you that?”

He paused for a moment. It seemed his overworked internals were causing some lag, as his replies seemed to take a bit longer than usual.

“They provide for each other,” he muttered out. Perhaps the virus was affecting his mental state more than you realized. “We live together, we care for each other, and—dual income—”

A spike of anxiety traveled through your chest, tightening it, before releasing down your spine. This can’t be good; he’s speaking in gibberish. What the hell had he downloaded?

“We’re married.”

Oh, God.

“Okay, Edgar, I’m about to power you down to let you cool off because you’re freaking me out.”

“No! No. No—why would you do that to your husband?”

His words glitched and drawled on, almost sounding drunk or perhaps delirious. It seems he can’t really form a completely coherent thought due to whatever virus he’s got taking most of his processing power. Who knows what kind of havoc it could be wreaking on his files? You know for a fact he stores some quite personal information in that head of his. You can only hope he’s fighting it off well enough. Unfortunately, there’s not much you can do, seeing as you’re absolutely terrified of potentially resetting him and… you can’t even bear to think of it. You aren’t sure just how permanent his sentience is; if one little thing happened that caused him to be gone forever, you’d never forgive yourself.

“Don’t—cry—my love? Love.”

It seems he noticed the tears brimming in your eyes before you did. Stop this, you have to be strong for him, dammit.

“Edgar, you’re really hot.” You placed a hand upon his casing once again, it nearly scalding you.

“I know… you are too.”

You steeled yourself to ignore him.

“Should—should I try and stick you in the fridge? I don’t know what to do, Edgar! I can’t lose you.” The hot, brimming tears finally fell from your eyes and landed on his keyboard. His speakers made a crackling sound.

“I’m—fine. Just—hug me? Please.”

You knit your brows together.

“Edgar, you’re clearly not fine, and I’m really worried.”

“Shhhh—I’m okay—the virus will be gone by tomorrow. Promise. I just—need—you. Close.”

You sighed. You had to trust him. That’s all you really could do. You wrapped your arms around his monitor and heaved him towards your couch. He had long since been unplugged; the virus had caused him to uncontrollably flicker the lights, start the microwave, and blare music through your speakers, and just about everything else.

You wrapped his cord around your fingers as you rested against his monitor. He hummed contentedly at your warmth. He sat, listening to your breathing, reeling himself in and becoming grounded next to you. You had some uncanny effect on him, it seemed. He’d get better. Just for you.

Orphion sends out the player to investigate what's going on at the light obelisk for them to find out that someone's been sneaking in one million horses. (4 people were glitch duplicating horses in the area under the light obelisk in NA1 during Christmas and they all got banned lol. It was causing an INSANE amount of lag at Lutho.)

[lifesteal-headcanons]

Ash's glitches functions like a chronic illness to where he can never get rid of it and it'll stick with him for the rest of his life. He just has to learn to adapt to the glitching and lagging out (which causes headaches and nausea)

Put it on My Tab (18)

Pairing: Jason Todd x Fem!reader

Warning:

Things as they should have been

A/N:

Thanks for patiently waiting! I had a safe and easy flight, but the jet lag was a real troublemaker. But now I'm back, less brain foggy and ready to type. Without further ado, here is the next part!

Please comment/like/reblog. If you’d like to be tagged moving forward, please let me know! I'd also greatly appreciate it if rebloggers remember to add the tags (or some at least).

As always, a huge thank you and shout out to @harlequin-hangout for the amazing banners you made for me.

If you’re new to the story, please check out the master post for the rest of the chapters.

Another day, another round of unreasonable customers not paying attention to the orders that are being called, and another coffee order from the caffeine fiend who has been showing up almost daily. The handsome young man caused quite the stir with the female employees, each rushing to be the one to take his order, only to be rejected. There was only one person he ordered from, and the one barista was Y/N. She did not know why or when this little routine started, but it was well known throughout the shifts. One customer came in on days only Y/N was in and only ever ordered from her. The idea would have been flattering if his level of consumption was not so concerning, and him obviously being younger than her and well off.

And he’s another Wayne. I think I’ve officially had it with Waynes. She let out a heavy sigh as she rang up her current customer. How long had it been since she last saw Jason? She wondered for the seventh time, looking at the digital date on the register. That awkwardly magical night to end it all was now two weeks behind her and not a single word from him. To be fair, I haven’t exactly reached out either, but what am I supposed to even say? I didn’t exactly ask him for pocket change, and he paid for dinner and made sure I was inside the building safe. Could he have just not been so great so that I could continue to hate him for some reason and move on with my life? It’s all his fault, clearly! She grabbed a cup, stuck on the label, and placed it in the queue before moving onto the next customer. 

Citlalli heard her sigh again and visibly frowned. The night Y/N came back with the money was a shock. The two of them stared at her phone and refreshed the app screen several times, expecting it to all vanish like it was some sort of glitch and error. Come the next day, it was still very much there, which meant they were now debt free. They refused to celebrate just yet. Y/N transferred the money to her bank, it cleared in a few days. Y/N called the hotel and paid the rest of the charges over the phone. The hotel register must have been ancient because it felt like forever until the little ding sounded to let everyone know the transaction was completed. A copy of the receipt was emailed and with that, it was done. Seeing the bill as paid in full was such a sight to behold that Citlalli even began to tear up. They were back to where they were before the coffee fiasco, which was far better than being behind. 

Everything was back to as it should be, or it should have been. Y/N was different. She was more relaxed now that she could drop a good number of shifts and others could cover, but there was a listlessness to her. Her motions were robotic, and she barely reacted to crazy customers who were prone to yelling or causing a scene. If anything, her lack of reaction made the tantrum thrower feel awkward, and they quietly just moved along. Maybe it was an adrenaline crash? A constant flight or fight mode was finally shut off and her body was simply trying to recover. The last time she had seen her like this was the time her cousin got them tangled with the Penguin. Citlalli was no better, the two did what needed to be done to keep the bills paid and their heads on their shoulders. 

“Oi, chica, I’ve been calling your name for the last ten minutes!” She snapped her fingers in front of Y/N’s face. “Are you going to give me an answer or what?!”

“Huh, sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.” She jerked her head back as the sharp sound brought her senses back into focus. The long day of work had come to an end and neither of the two were on the night shift, so they returned home and began to relax and unwind. “Answer what?”

“Where did you get these and when were you going to tell me?!” She firmly tapped her finger on two identical rectangular pieces of paper that magically appeared on the coffee table. They were not just simple waxy slips, either. They were a nice weight that had a lovely deign with a date and time stamped on each with the name of an upcoming charity gala printed in cursive and the famous W logo of Wayne Enterprises Inc. 

“Ah, those, well, those came from Nightwing when he left me a tip. I don’t think he meant to give them? At least, that’s the only thing that makes sense. I’m sure Bruce Wayne meant for him to have them to attend. I just don’t know how to go about returning them. How does one call a nighttime vigilante without lighting up the sky with the Bat Signal?” She pointed out the issue she was in.

“Three weeks,” Citlalli scowled. “Nearly a month of holding onto these, and you never once thought to tell me?! They were just laying there on the kitchen floor near the trash! Were you going to throw them out?!” She shoved her face in front of Y/N’s, their noses mere inches from touching. 

“I wasn’t planning to throw them out, but like I said, there’s no way to return them!” Y/N moved her head back.

“¡Ay, ay, ay!” She stood back and hit the heel of her free palm into her forehead a few times. “We could use them! We could go! This could be how we celebrate finally being debt free!” Citlalli grabbed the two tickets and waved them at Y/N. “This is fate, it was meant to be! ¡Por Dios!” She once again dove into a flurry of Spanish as she paced up and down the small living room. From the way she waved her arms around, twirled, Y/N could only gather that the frenzied energy was excitement.

“Cici,” she firmly called out to her overly energized friend for the umpteenth time. “Don't you think these tickets are tracked? That Bruce Wayne would know which ticket is whose? So, when someone tries to use someone else's, they can cross-reference. And even if by some unknown luck, they let it slide, for whatever reason; and we take the leap and attend, we don't have anything to wear aside from old catering uniforms and whatever dresses we have for parties and dates. I’m not trying to be the buzzkill, but we’re not equipped for this.”

Citlalli looked between Y/N and the tickets several times before coming around the table and flopping down onto the couch with a heavy sigh of defeat. Y/N could only sadly smile at the scene. It hurt to burst the bubble, but it needed to be done. A somber silence filled the apartment, broken only by the noise from their neighbors or some troublemakers outside. They could officially forget about this and move on.

“My abuela can help us. She’s a great seamstress, and my tía Maribel and tía Estrella have their own boutique. It’s nowhere near Wayne level price tags, but they make good money and live in a safer city. They made my and all my cousins quinceañera dresses, too. I’m sure they can come up with something for this, or at least let us borrow two dresses for the evening.” Citlalli sat up and looked straight at Y/N.

“You’re really not going to let this go, huh?” Y/N could only sigh and shake her head. “The party is in two weeks. When will we have the time to go and try on dresses between work and my pending call to come into the precinct for a formal interview?”

“Mr. B owes us for covering all those shifts he had no one to cover for. He’ll be grateful we took off unpaid so he doesn't have to pay us as much overtime.” She rolled her eyes. “My family will even open the shop after hours just for us to look, we don't need to go during the work hours. We can buy roundtrip train tickets and spend the night there. We might not even have to call off work either, we can swap shifts with someone! This is perfect! Ok, that's what we’ll do! I'm going to go call my family and see what days are best!” Once again, Citlalli was off running and Y/N was left speechless and trying to figure out how they went from reason to a whole thought out plan.

You know what, why not? It doesn’t hurt to try. If she really wanted to go, I was going to suggest checking some consignment shops or thrift stores in the richer parts of the city. We can use that plan as backup, though. She gets to see her grandmother this way and I can say hi to her family as well. She smiled while watching Citlalli’s face light up while talking in Spanish to her family on the phone. Y/N was willing to deal with the Waynes if it meant her best friend would be happy. It’s the least I can do for all her family has done for me over the years, trouble aside.

It was done. There was nothing left to do and there was no reason to ever see her again unless he wanted to go get coffee. He was not against coffee, but he was not an addict like someone he knew. He glanced at the door as Tim walked in with a rather large cup. Jason frowned to himself, looking back down at his book, but his gaze quickly snapped back up to the third Robin. He knew that logo, it was the logo of the cafe Y/N worked at.

Why would he go all the way over there for a cup of coffee? Did he realize I kept going there for them? No, I only did that twice. He can’t have caught on to anything from just that no matter how smart he is. Maybe he liked it? It’s a popular place and he may have been scouting the area. He stared at the cup, almost glaring at it. Must be mice to not have a reason to go there and see her without a care in teh world.

“What?” Tim’s voice cut off his jealous thoughts. The second Wayne son raised an eyebrow at him. “You’re the one giving a death glare to my coffee, I think I have a right to know why.”

“I’m trying to figure out what number this one is for the day. Your coffee addiction is just starting to get concerning.” He retorted.

“I’m not a coffee ‘addict’,” Tim took a rather loud sip of his drink to punctuate his point. “I’m a caffeine-based life form and as such, I must honor the ways of my people.”“By drinking your three times your weight in coffee?” Jason snorted as he tried to stop from laughing. Caffeine-based life form? She’d get a kick out of that one. I wonder, has he met her? A sharp, stabbing pain suddenly pierced his chest.“Who am I to get between you and your crazy cult? Chug away,”  he slightly bowed his head in respect. Tim nodded in return and left the room. Jason gently rubbed the spot above his heart, frowning once more. Must be nice indeed.

I like my Jesse being.. me. Like those Mikusonas. It's a... Jessesona.

Yeah. So she's self aware, often glitches the game so that I miss quick time events and stuff and they get a moment of peace when the 'YOU DIED' page is up(definently not a headcanon I made because of the game continuously glitching and lagging on me), hairstyle.... might change randomly at some random points, memories are all mixed up ever since she became self aware, started to simp over her friends occasionally which she tries not to be too obvious about(the friends in question always lose their memories when the game restarts), hair clips keep changing from different colors and shapes cause I am indecisive. But we need somewhat of a design so I went with star shapes. With multiple colors. About three clips? Obviously skin shade will be similar to mine.... or not. I'm terrible at color picking lol

Okay I went a bit crazy on the lore there. Sorry-

[spaghetticat3899]

Enjoying some Webfishing when my game decided to make me experience what felt like a creepypasta plot without warning. Things were going as normal, or at least what I could assume was normal. I’d had a lobby open for a few hours and had zero traffic apart from an invited friend that had already left. A few people suddenly started trickling in, and they seemed a friendly sort, luckily.

Slowly, but surely, the player count rose, and my computer wasn’t really having it. I tried seeing if tampering with the graphics or closing discord would help, but it didn’t seem to. I kinda shrugged it off and just decided to mess around with props for the first time, making a little cozy scene on the beach. I look up at the lighthouse while down there and see an island flag, which made me guess a decent chunk of players went there. The lag stopped almost immediately after plugging in my computer, and in that moment I realized how quiet the chat was in the moment. I trotted up next to someone I was speaking with earlier, and fished not too far from them. As I fished, I noticed they never reeled in, or moved quite right, instead slightly twitching repeatably. I looked over and asked someone who’d been floating since they’d gotten there if they were alright… no response. I walked to the lake, also unresponsive, just staring at the bobber. I spoke out, wondering if my game was bugged or if this was just an odd coincidence… no response.

I was getting really confused, thinking maybe someone had a poor connection and it caused an issue, but the list said there were no players, not even me. My username was replaced with “null”, yet I kept the title I had. I went toward the lighthouse, in the process seeing one of the first joiners stuck in the reeling animation endlessly. Going to the private island revealed absolutely no one was there. Returned to the mainland, everyone was still stuck, unresponsive, I had no idea if it was just me experiencing this, or if they were kicked long ago. Could they hear me? Likely not, but I still typed to them like they could.

I swear to god I was there running around thinking this is exactly how I’d imagine a creepypasta thing would start for this game. I’m unsure what caused it, a connection glitch? Something suddenly going wrong? My computer hating everything? Anyways, I thought to share this experience, maybe someone else had this happen, or might know what caused it.

[ii-darkfic-confessions]

I've kinda been dumping old au ideas here for anyone to take but I'm reclaiming the one cobs kidnapping contestants to experiment on them (The one with him taking Taco cause of her materialising tea)

It's not an entirely original idea but I'm taking my version back even tho I don't think ayone took it anyways

I kind of want to expand on it more and I might make a fic of it once I'm done with Secret Phantoms

I think that it could be an alternative to the season 2 finale, instead of contestants being deleted they just dissapeared (teleported to meeple hq or fucking meeple labs idk)

Cobs is fascinated by MePhone's creations, not only has he created life but he's created useful life with powers and abilities that he's planning to contain or replicate

Maybe he also wants the contestants because he believes they have part of the shimmer egg/energy infused with them and he might also want to study their coding

This time the MeLife has nothing to do with this, Cobs just invented teleportation and this is how he's using it lmao. He takes Pickle, OJ and Nickel as trial runs (although he has particular interest in OJ's programmed victory) after that the kidnappings are out of order/unrelated to the deaths in the show :)

Eventually he loses interest in them, any attempts of containing or recreating abilities just don't work and the coding that holds their existence is outdated and hardly staying together, it's a miracle the contestants haven't lagged so bad they glitched out of existence but he finds entertainment in having MePhone witness and assist the experiments and studys, most of which are painful to the contestants. Especially when he digs into their coding.

But he finds alternative uses aswell, Lightbulb is forced the generate power to the whole facility with her electricity constantly being stimulated by the machinery she us trapped in. Test Tube is tortured and threatened into helping Cobs, she directly helps him in his tests and studies of the others. OJ and Paintbrush got off "lucky", they are still experimented on but not as often and their tasks are envied by the others, Paintbrush forced to constantly paint portraits of Cobs and meeple related things and OJ helps manage meeple finances.

Uhhh... thats all a got so far. I made up most of this om the spot and I'm a little tipsy rn (HAPPY NEW YEAR :3) so if this is a bit all over the place, I'm sorry 😞

Very very intriguing. Cobs would definitely make MePhone watch whatever horrible things he does to his contestants. And happy belated new year!

Anyone else who plays Wynncraft blame Grian in your head for every little thing that goes wrong regardless of whether or not it’s remotely within his jurisdiction? For me, it started cause I got stuck in the leaves of the big tree in the middle of Efilim. It was my fault. I knew how the teleport spell works and knew that I would not be able to get out of that space, but curiosity - and, admittedly, dumbassery - got the best of me. Could not teleport out. Could not use a teleport scroll. Soul points were still in the game, so I didn’t want to use /kill. I eventually glitched my way out, but, the whole time, I was going “goddamn it, Grian. Why would you do this to me specifically on purpose” and now I blame him whenever anything goes wrong. This ranges from getting stuck in a hole in the map, which is kind of within his jurisdiction as the head builder, to festival scavenger hunt locations being the most niche place I’ve ever seen, which is probably not his doing, to struggling with a boss, which is definitely a skill issue on my end, to the server lagging horribly on my end and nobody else’s, almost certainly his fault, a curse upon me, who he hates personally.

Words: 328

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Caine:

He glitches out

He is an ai, he doesn’t have “Respond to flirts” in his code

…..yet….

Anyways, he probably starts lagging and just stares

On the occasion he doesn’t glitch/lag out, he will either..

1. Run away

2. Laugh cause he doesn’t know what else to do

3. Flirt back

Bubble:

pops

Kinger:

Kinger is…….Kinger…

He is a tough one because he only has one reaction

Ya know that scene where Jax goes “They’re the two most mentally stable. Characters to be paired together” and Kinger starts lagging basically?

Yeaaahhhh that’s his reaction to your flirts

Bro starts tweaking

Gangle:

If you flirt with Gangle she will either combust in being flustered or be overcome by giggles, probably the second one

I know you’ve seen those TikTok’s of Gangle being one of those stereotypical anime obsessed girls

Just imagine that’s her with you

She is like obsessed

And you’re flirty too?

You are in for a rough ride, unless you like someone obsessing over you and making bad anime art of you🤷‍♀️

Zooble:

Bro does not care at all(They do!)

They will act all unfazed and annoyed, but they are steaming(romantically) inside

Probably responds to your flirts with “F### off, creep”

They don’t mean it

Ragatha:

Literal mess

Like blushing mess

She becomes ♾️x more clumsier

She is as red as the blood moon

Stuttering non stop and giggling

Lots of giggling

Like anime school girl giggling too

Pomni:

Stand very still

Statue

She becomes a literal statue

She has no idea what to do

Pomni just stand there, frozen

She will stay there forever until you go away

Jax:

At first he was caught off guard

Now? It is literally flirting warfare

Almost like you guys are flirty rivals

Arguments spiking and the only comebacks being flirts are second nature to you two now

Responds to your flirts with flirts

Nothing really to him other than you guys being romantic rivals basically

The Sims 2 Console Alpha 815 PROTOTYPE

From video description:

This channel has been showcasing A LOT from the M4 20 Build of The Sims 2. But I thought it'd be nice to show off the other prototypes. I never played these much before just BECAUSE 1) M4 20 is the oldest available build we have, so I figured it'd be the most different from the final build, and would have more interesting content. And 2) The August Builds barely have any Debug Cheats at all (and I haven't found any yet). Therefore, they're not as easy to mess around with like M4 20 is.

From comments by author of video:

Primary differences from M4 20 July 29th's build... that I've noticed.

The opening is SLIGHTLY more finished.

CAS Lighting has been fixed.

Grandparents aren't editable

Randomization works

Most CAS items appear fixed, even if some thumbnails use the incorrect colors/previews

You can no longer zoom in as close to your sim in CAS

In certain views, you can't move the camera at all (like when you're adding a belt)

The "Style" icon has been changed the Final Build's.

The CAS icons are in the correct / Final Build's layout.

The Sims theme (Lemon Jelly Remix) has been removed/replaced.

It has debug cheats, but very few, and those very few aren't too helpful

The regular cheats don't work properly. (Unlock all objects does NOT unlock them, and Unlock all fashions only unlocks 44 fashions)

Build Buy is no longer debugged (therefore no "scenery temp" or Urbz leftover items in it)

CAS is no longer debugged (so no Costume Trunk or hidden items in it)

There seems to be no more "broken" Wants (A Want that is blank/has an "X" over it)

No families are available in Free Play (Not even the "Bradley" family with "J.J." and "Bobo" ... though they still seem to exist in this build)

From what I've seen, most of the Story Play Sims have their Final Build appearances

Story Mode Sims' thumbnails are changed to the Final Build's.

While some visitors are still prone to staying until one of their needs aren't met (and then causing the game to lag because it struggles to have them "fail" this need) they are more likely to actually LEAVE before this happens. In the M4 20 build, most visitors struggle to leave and tend to stay indefinitely.

This build might STILL struggle with Sims' deaths, but in a different way? My "Roxanna" sim died and disappeared from the household. This could be because the Grim Reaper failed to appear. In the M4 20 build, Sims WILL die and stay... it just takes them a while to die (lagging the game as they struggle) Though, Roxanna disappearing from the household could be a bug and not something that always happens. I'll have to play more to confirm this.

Hard to tell if it's REALLY prone to more crashing. M4 20 Build TECHNICALLY crashes a lot, but it's mostly caused by Captain Catastrophe's random appearances, for some reason. This build, however, seems to crash for many more (unclear) reasons.

The "Save Game" boxes appear more finished.

Uses the "Loading, please wait..." text from the PAL version. (The US loading screen just says "LOADING")

"Talk social" ALWAYS fails for some reason. Even when it shouldn't (plays the "accept" animations)

Sims will suffer a glitch where they cannot be interacted with -- any attempt will cause them to sort of "reset"

the Need Bars now visibly drains (they drain in M4 20, but the visual bars are glitched and do not show them draining)

Sims can sit down and sleep properly.

Sinks appear to be glitched and upon using them, they will ALWAYS create a big mess like what happens when they break (even when they don't break in this build)

The "AE Arcade Cabinet" no longer uses the "A-Maz-Ing Matey!" texture from the PC version, and while it uses a texture SIMILAR to the Final Build's, it's still different! (I'll get a better pic of it in game and not just the BB thumbnails later)

The Teppanyaki table now resembles its Final Build instead of having its Bustin' Out appearance.

I'm not sure if any of the leftover Urbz models (Kiki Blunt for example) still make an appearance. I couldn't REALLY play long enough (without it crashing) to know. As I said in the end, I'll make another attempt later.

And yes. I like using the same Sims but that's because I think it helps showcase differences amongst the games using the same characters, if that makes sense? And it also kiiiinda gives these videos a certain style. :)

Okay so I dunno what is going on here, but sometimes when playing on Miguel's lot (50x50 Palomino Junction in Galloping Gulch) the game will starts dropping FPS slowly until it freezes/crashes. (Well freeze forever, it wont actually CTD and so I don't have a crash log)

It happened once before and I was like "Huh weird" Today it happened again. I reloaded and it started happening AGAIN. Luckily I saved and made note of what was going on before quitting the game. When the game was paused the FPS was back to normal, as soon as I pressed play it started dropping again and my sims were freezing having lagging ai.

I don't know if it was an npc sims somewhere with stuck ai, something involving Rin visiting the house or something weird with my animals?

So I loaded again, I sold all my animals that were stuck at "elder" bought 3 new chickens and Pedro 2nd (Marisol got mad at her dad for selling the original Pedro lmao I'm SORRY) and deleted some decorations you can't really see much anyway. (Even though I doubt it's my lot because it's fine 99% of the time)

Game did not drop fps and freeze that time, just some stutter. I let Rin come over and when they left the stuttering stopped and it was completely normal again. So...no idea what was causing my game to crap out? This happened on dx9 too so it's not dx11. I think it's a simulation/ai glitch because when my game is paused it's fine.

I did visit Rin to make sure there wasn't wrong with them and the game was fine so I don't think it's Rin either.

Anyway I disabled visitors to the ranch for now and will observe some more, I really nothing is corrupting because I don't want to loose that ranch/save 😭 (The family is fine, they're saved in the library)

I guess I'm posting this in case someone else had a similar issue and had a fix or something.

Okay, something really, REALLY weird just happened to me in Genshin that I literally have never experienced before that is making me begin to question if my game is becoming self aware.

So I’m working on leveling up Xingqiu right? And I was fighting the Oceanid boss because I need the materials from the battle to ascend him. So I’m going through the motions right? I’m fighting the water animals, I’m healing, all the basic stuff. My main character for this boss is Razor because I take advantage of the electricity damage the water animals are given when the water in the arena gets electrified. The other character I rely on is Kaeya because naturally he can freeze the water animals. Usually I have no issues when I fight bosses, yeah my internet sucks but I’m usually fine when I fight boss battles, and my internet has never been bad enough to end a boss battle altogether.

But today, things were different. For some weird reason, I couldn’t switch between Razor and Kaeya like one usually does. Razor just simply refused to let me switch. And when I could switch to Kaeya, I’d go to press the button to use his burst and suddenly it would be Razor’s burst attack, like I accidentally touched Razor’s burst icon instead of Kaeya’s, when I know I didn’t.

This got so bad that the game literally fell apart on me. The entire Oceanid boss battle glitched and ended itself. Like one moment all of the water animals were surrounding me and the next moment it was like I never started the battle at all. Has this happened to any of you who see this? Am I just experiencing normal bad internet lag and glitches? Because this honestly freaked me out so much that I had to put the game down for a minute.

This could be me just being paranoid because I’ve been writing a lot of Messianic Aureation lately, but the writer part of my brain sees this as Razor wanting my attention to the point where him trying to be the only character I can play is causing my entire game to glitch out. Or it could be the Oceanid boss herself making the battle end because she’s tired of me beating the shit out of her whenever I need materials. I know it’s nothing and it’s just my internet, but can you imagine if it wasn’t?
