#Also the store clerk's design!

[waggtoon]

I recently learned there was an unreleased Felix the Cat game planned for the CDI. Gameplay of it managed to show up on Youtube which is how I found out about it.

[randomnameless]

Alright, I've done it, and ordered the UO artbook!

"But random, it's in Japanese and you can't understand it at all!"

As if that ever stopped me from buying FE5 light novels before!

I'll just have to wait until the 21 or 23rd of october then, but hey, I'm finally excited to wait for something again!

We are the Same [OCs]

early 20s and some kid hang around a record store somewhere. things happen!

Connoly Collins designed by @call-me-clevy

more oc info and me yappin vvv

one day i just stopped all my friends and asked if i can make ocs based off of us and we're hanging out at some corner store like Clerks the animated series. Changing "some corner store" to a record store and we're here.

They live in Somewhere Shore city, Vincent and Everest work at Somewhere Shore: Record Store (ppl just call it Somewhere Records). Everest has to often look after his quiet little cousin Reen, even if he's working. Milo and Oswald are usual customers that like hanging around (are also often the reason for problems happening around the store, to Everest' distain). Milo likes to tinker and sometimes does freelance to help with broken machines, like record and cd players. Something gay is going on with Oswald and Vincent but they'd be caught dead before they'd admit it. And Everest has a big loser crush on the nicest guy you'd ever meet, Connoly.

They also have a band! It's called We are the Same, they most of the time meet up at Oswald's garage to play. they don't get many offers but this is Somewhere Shore City, it's a little too quiet for what they'd want to be.

if you have any questions about them please ask!!!!!!!! i love these guys a lot

I find it incredibly creepy how Dumbledore views Riddle as being this sort of inherently seductive 'femme fatale' type. In book 6 he implies that Tom used his looks to endear himself to his teachers when he started school and hide his supposedly inherently evil and corrupt nature.

Like. Albus. DUDE. Tom was ELEVEN. Why would you assume that teachers would be swayed by or even paying attention to the attractiveness of an eleven year old?! WTAF?

And then he portrays the Hepzibah Smith memory as another example of Tom using his seductive charms for evil. But although he does bring her flowers he doesn't do anything else to encourage her and in fact seems uncomfortable and determined to keep the conversation focused on work.

She is actually the one who is being creepy here given the power differential between them. I mean, yes, Tom is putting up with her because it suits his designs for the moment and could and would kill her in a second if provoked. But even though we know that she certainly doesn't. As far as she knows she's creeping on this young store clerk without wealth or connections whose job depends on keeping her happy.

And certainly while she enjoys his looks and his attention she also seems quite happy with the persona he puts on where he addresses her in a highly respectful manner, not as an equal. She's certainly not complaining about how he calls her Miss Hepzibah or asking him to drop the honorific. She likes that. She likes that he addresses her not much differently than how her House Elf does. She likes his whole "I am only a poor assistant, madam, who must do as he is told" thing. And as far as she knows he is just that, with no particular special power or talent other than his good looks which she evidently appreciates. This is not him leading on and taking advantage of an innocent sweet old lady.

And yes he brings her flowers, presumably to keep her happy, but other than that he tries to keep the conversation professional and steer the discussion towards the purpose of his visit. He doesn't say anything overtly flirtatious or even try to prolong their discussion by asking to see some of her other things.

She brings that up on her own. Nor is there any indication that he is the one that decided to move their relationship in this direction. It seems more like she saw a young and good looking man, apparently far below her in terms of station and magical power, and made her move. He probably isn't the first.

The way she casually touches him is just so creepy to me. And though he tolerates it, he did nothing to encourage or solicit it. Riddle is someone who is in general quite averse to touch. We only see him voluntarily touch one person in 7 books and that's when he touches Harry, just for a second in book 4, just to show that he can. I don't think he enjoys this kind of attention. He was probably glad to kill her for more than just the purpose of getting the cup and the locket.

And yet none of her creepiness is acknowledged. Instead, Dumbledore draws our attention to how Riddle cruelly seduced and murdered a nice old lady whose affections he sought and then betrayed:

Birthday Girl.

Earth42!Miles x Reader + Pavitr x Reader

“Happy Birthday, [Name].”

Headcanons and snippets C:

i want to wife him

E42!Miles: Purple Pavitr: Orange You: Pink Rio Morales: Blue

Miles Morales:

Would wake you up with breakfast in bed

if it’s a day where he’s called in for a job he’ll fight Aaron on getting the day off for you

although, the fight wouldn’t last long

Aaron likes you too, so with a sigh and a pinch of his nose bridge, he concides

letting Miles have the day off but only with a promise of working him to the bone the next day over

he rolls his eyes but the smirk on his face makes his uncle scoff a laugh

so with breakfast in hand, he’s gently shaking you awake

whispering your name with the promise of food

your sleepy voice greeting him makes the butterflies in his stomach awaken

“[Name].. Wake up, Chiquita, I have breakfast.”

“Food? Hi, Miles.”

He smiles at your slurred words, and you peak your head from under your covers. Pulling yourself to sit up.

There’s a spread of breakfasts foods in front of you, all your favourites.

“Miles..”

“Happy Birthday, Mami.”

“I’m gonna kiss you.”

“I won’t stop you.”

Spoils you with gifts

literally anything he could’ve possibly seen that you even might have liked

designer shoes to match with him (Nike Airs)

Matching jewellery as well, literally adores matching with you

gets you a chain with his name on it and one with yours for himself

whether you like silver or gold he gets you some premium shit

likes the look of white gold so that’s what he got himself

would do genuinely anything you want him 2

takes you to your fav nail tech to get you both done

he lets you choose the colours but makes sure to include purple with his own

after he takes you shopping,

you tell him off

he literally already bought you so much

knows what he’s doing tho

“Miles!”

“Aye, ma. C’mere.”

“We’re not going in there.”

“Yes we are.”

He settles his hands along your waist, turning you towards the boutique.

“Miles— It’s expensive in—,”

“I have an opening booked for us.”

His monotoned voice dragged in your ear, a shiver in its wake.

“Wha— C’mon!”

“Don’t pout at me, Mami. Might have to take you home.”

“I’m not pouting—“

“Hi.”

“Hello Mr.Morales, Right this way, Please.”

“Mr.Morales..?”

take you both to a boutique to get you clothes for the night

let’s you try on any dress you want

you try and pick the ones that don’t look too pricey

he catches on pretty quick and ends up picking the dresses for you to try himself

makes you show off for him

likes how you look in expensive shit and makes it known

“Damn, ma. Gonna have to buy that one for a later date..”

“Baby, no event is going to come up anytime soon that big enough for a dress like this.”

“I’m a patient man.”

ends up getting something that complements both your nails and the matching jewellery

also buys the matching shoes

he had a huge thing for seeing you in heels, but if you prefer flats he’ll make the workers find you something

gets a suit for himself

he’s been here before so they know his measurements.

gets a simple white blouse, with a dark grey set, a matching waist coat with it. And a black tie to go with the black buttons on the waist coat and cuffs.

doesn’t really bother with shoes

just figured he’s gonna wear his normal shit

when checking out, he makes sure to distract you with talk on what he plans for the night

adding tidbits that have both you and the store clerk blushing

the poor clerk just trying to ring you up

He leant over to whisper in your ear, rather loudly for someone “trying” to be discreet.

“Can’t wait to take you home, Chiquita. Seein’ you all dolled up for me? Jesus..”

“Oh my god.”

“That’ll be—“

“I got it.”

The clerk handed you the bags quickly before printing the receipt and going to rush off.

“Thank you, Have a nice day.”

Miles’ rumbling chuckle made your knees weaken.

“Yeah, we will.”

Takes you home to get ready,

touching you the whole time you do your make-up

whether it’d be a hand smoothing down your shoulders, massaging you while you worked

or his grip on the expanse of your waist

or even his nails raking down your back, watching the goose bumps rise as he did, infatuated

eventually you were both ready

and it was late

he took you to a high end restaurant, Electric Lemon it was called

and when you walked in greeted by his family, mingling with yours

you might have teared up a bit

“Chiquita? You ok?”

“Mmha..”

“If it’s too much we ca—“

“No, Miles, I love it. I love you—,”

You turned to him, the small smile gracing his lips a rare but gorgeous sight.

“This is perfect, thank you.”

“Love you too, Mi Cielo.”

“Oh (Name)! Feliz cumple! No es linda? Miles hizo increible!”

“Oh! [Name]! Happy Birthday! Isn’t this so nice? Miles did amazing!”

“Momma, Please—“

'Oh! Y Aaron era tan secreto sobre lo que era -'

“Oh! And Aaron was all secretive about what it was—,”

She leaned close to you, whispering “-así supe que toda fue para ti”

“,—so I knew it was for you.”

She smiled sweetly at you while you giggled back. Thanking her for coming to see you. She waved you off, walking you an Miles over to Aaron as she spoke.

“No, no me das gracias. Tu eres mi hija. Sería un crimen no venir.”

“No, Don’t thank me. You’re my daughter, it’d be a crime to not show up.”

You glanced over to Miles, seeing the sincerity behind his eyes when watching the two loves of his life interact so sweetly. You smiled back in turn.

He whisked you away from the party, after a while. Taking you to the more secluded parts of the rooftop. Completely devoid of life, he cradled your head to his and kissed you earnestly. Putting his Heart and Soul into loving you.

You giggled into his mouth, watching him smile back. You dragged your finger down the centre of his braids, something he’d come to love you doing. He pulled back from you, watching you smile up at him. His eyes shining with an endless love.

“Happy Birthday, [Name].”

—

he is so boyfriend coded

Pavitr Prabhakar:

will do similar to Miles, but not with breakfast in bed

will wake you up with flowers and kisses and an outfit he knew you liked set out for you

like i said in this, sleepy you makes him go insane

he’d let you sit with him a while whilst you woke up, and would smother you in love, whispering his praise to you

pulls you into his lap to look him in the eye while he confesses how much he loves you like it’s the first time all over again

“Thithli, you mean the world to me—,”

He massaged the flesh of your thighs, resting along his waist. He was flustered looking up to you, knowing you were there, with him, drove him farther head over heels.

“—You’re the love of my life, getting older with you is the greatest blessing of my life.”

“Pav.. baby..” You whined his name, waking up to such affections would be something you could never get used to.

“I’m so glad you exist with me, Shonu.”

You shoved you head into his neck, hiding your lovey-dovey smile from him.

“Love you, Pavitr..”

“Love you more, [Name].”

When you’ve woken up more

he coaxed you for a shower, taking care of you like the doting lover he is

pats you dry and helps you dress, then dresses himself

all while telling you how you make him whole, how you’re the reason he’s here and he’ll never be as happy as he is with you

it’s obsessive, but you’re just as bad

you tell him more in touches than in words, and he takes it in stride.

he’s come to know your love language, both of you sharing touch, but you take in the quality time trait as well

so he makes sure to drag the day out as long as he can

makes the morning slow, brings you his gifts and starts the food while you open them

he pets your cat and cooks, watching you out of the corner of his eye

He’d gotten you a set of bangles with small spiders engraved, crested in diamonds.

ones matching to the ones he wears

accompanied with a matching collar for your cat, which you smiled at

he’d also gotten you smaller, sentimental things likes references to your first dates, massage oils,

and things you’d said you liked in passing, that’d he’d remembered. because of course he had

he smiles when you shyly cover your mouth, looking down at the things he’d gifted with teary eyes

knowing how hard it is for you to accept gifts,

he doesn’t say anything, just turns the stove down and walks over to kiss you

“You okay, Jaanu?”

You looked up at him from the paper in your hands, nodding with a pout of your lips and a tremble in your voice.

“Yeah—, Yes, I’m good.”

He leant over to kiss your temple, smiling as he turned back to tend to the food, “Thank you, Pav.”

He glanced back over at you.

“My pleasure, Thithli.”

you lie in bed together for another two hours after you eat

just taking in each others prescience and letting the calming white noise of a distant show in the background soothe you

you hold him close, listening to his heart beat

when a song comes on he recognises and he sings to it softly, the contented sigh you let out is involuntary

he eventually gets you up again, since you’re already dressed, you feed your cat and leave

he walks you through the streets of his home, bringing you to his favourite spots

to feed the stray dogs with him, or to grip onto him and swing over the immense traffic

“Pav, If I fall, I’m blaming you.”

“Thithli, you won’t fall. I promise.”

“Okay.. But if I do—“ He grabbed your waist and hoisted you against him, shooting a web to a high building and swinging you up. Using his bangles to create more momentum and fluidity with his swings.

“Pavitr Prabhakar! I’m going to kill you!”

“Kiss me? Doesn’t really sound like a threat..”

“I swear—“

His sweetened laugh interrupted your spiel, and you couldn’t even be mad.

he eventually leads you back to his house

where your friends and family (his included), are waiting for you.

They greet you in tandem, with a cute, fairly out of sync “Surprise!”

the furniture in his house had been pushed into the far corners and the tiles of his family’s large lounging area had been made into a make-shift dance floor,

everything else being decorated in a very honest sense

and if there was a ache in your chest for the love you’d felt then, no one but you would know

all your spidery friends were there as well— only making the evening even more special

festivities shown were upbeat and exciting and you hadn’t felt more of a community than you had at that moment

When a lull in the upbeat songs play, and a slower, more set tone starts through the speakers—, Pavitr cuts in, taking you from Hobie, who shoots him off with a wink.

He holds you close, starting a slow dancing sway with you.

“How’re you finding it, Shonu?”

The lights dancing in your eyes make you evermore pretty to him.

“It’s—.. Its beautiful Pav, I’m so happy,”

People had started to sway with you, keeping the middle of the floor clean for you and your lover.

“,Thank you.”

“Only the best for you, [Name].”

You’d swayed with him for another minute before the end of the song had approached. Him twirling you out and catching you in a dip whilst you laughed and went along with it.

He brought you up into a quick, cheesy kiss.

“How romantic.”

“Cause I love you.”

Your voice quietened. “Love you more, Spidey.”

He stared at you a moment longer, placing a kiss along your temple once more.

“Happy Birthday, [Name].”

We're still working on character designs so they are largely inaccurate for the warners and max, but this shows age and height comparisons! Character descriptions under read more!

We also included characters that appear outside the farm! Bugs Bunny is the Sheriff of the nearby city. He likes to take on challenges to show off his wit and pawns off smaller outlaws on his deputy, Daffy Duck. At night time, he goes undercover as a burlesque dancer to gain information about criminal whereabouts in town. Babs and Buster Bunny (no relation) live in a town (turning on city) several hours travel away. They both work for the sheriff and deputy. Buster is a deputy in training and Babs does clerical issues and cleans up buster's messes. She has a gun but doesn't use it as much. (Although she IS a better shot than Buster.) The other six characters are various people in the small town close to the ranch, or in the larger city. In order, left to right: Ms. Perla is a middle age dog who works in the same saloon as Mr. Bentley, she is a very serious woman and tends to handle the more complicated costumers but can be very sweet, she lives in a small house in town with her cousin Ms. Katara and Mr. Argus. Ms. Katara works as store clerk in town, she goes to see Ms. Perla whenever she has time during the day, even though she gets scolded, a very enthusiastic woman and very friendly. Mr. Argus works as carpenter in town, he's a widower but a hardworking man that tends to get in trouble with outsiders if they look suspicious enough but a very nice man otherwise, tries to keep Ms. Perla and Ms. Katara safe. Mr. Bentley is a jolly middle aged dog who tends the saloon in town. He always seems to have some long winded story for patrons and enjoys playing the piano at the saloon when he has extra help and he has the time. Mrs. Flame owns the small general store in town. She's a widow but she's very kind and while she doesn't really know the warners, she tends to very secretly give Yakko a discount when he comes in to buy things and hopes he won't notice. Ms. Belle is a stocker that helps Ms. Flame in her shop on delivery days. She's excitable and boisterous and loves making friends, but she's sworn off men for an unknown reason.

↷ ✩ —— video store clerk sam monroe headcanons. (nsfw 18+)

warnings: smutty smutty smutty. minors do not interact or else i'll collect your kneecaps. porn (duh), masturbation.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe who lingers and hangs back a little too long in the furthest section of the video store every time he has to put away the lazily disinfected x-rated returns back into their designated slots.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe who makes a bad habit out of scoping out the newest releases when he unboxes them before they hit the shelves. it's not usually anything super crazy— the same old titles with "busty" and "hot" in big bold letters. most of the covers are on the classier end, displaying lingerie clad women tantalizing the potential renter with what lies within. but some of them... some of them lacked any subtly at all.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe who has to take a sneak peek at all the dirtier titles that occasionally came through their doors. the ones marketed as more "hardcore" that don't bother teasing or leaving the viewer wondering— instead showing blondes with fake tits on the cover, one or two or more cocks shoved into their mouths, full cunts on display and leaving absolutely nothing to the imagination before even hitting play.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe who doesn't always bother checking the most interesting ones out. they don't even make it out of the fucking store, let alone into the privacy of his own bedroom. he's instead taking his pick and inquisitiveness into the back room at the end of his shift when he should solely be focusing on putting a rewind on the stack of returns. the ones that are being dragged along under his arm with the selected gangbang in brand new condition that he gets to test run first.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe who puts his curiosity before his nonexistent work ethic because he's known to be impatient, and immediately feeds the tape into the mouth of an older model vcr that brings the film to life with a mechanical whirr.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe whose impatience in question forces him to press fast forward as he sits on the shitty couch with stained cushions from spilled lunches and dinners. forwarding and forwarding until he finds a scene that makes his whole body react and his dick twitch, and he knows he has to make this quick.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe who lets the explicit sounds of pornographic moans and skin against skin fill the space of the small room, and he's about to add to the harmony of it. his fingers are quickly undoing the buckle of his studded belt and letting it fall open just as the film plays at a normal pace, and he can't reach his hand into the confines of those baggy hot topic bought tripp pants fast enough.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe who works his wrist at a deliberate and desperate pace that might've left burn marks if he weren't a seasoned, jerking off professional. he's trying to match the rhythm of the video playing out before him of a stretched cunt getting repeatedly fucked and hammered into, while her stuffed throat can't make any sound other than lewd gurgles. he doesn't even know what this chick really looks like, he didn't catch enough of the beginning. but he also doesn't fucking care what she looks like. his eyes are too busy glued elsewhere and he refuses to let them screw shut.

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe whose teeth are clicking against the labret pierced through his lower lip as he sucks in harsh breaths in between groans, and bites at the skin while his chest heaves with whimpers. "c'mon please, please, please—" he's not sure what exactly he's begging for... the sweet release, he supposes. every tug and stroke from his fist brought him closer and closer and—

𝜗𝜚˚⋆ sam monroe who doesn't waste much time after cum coats his hand. the mess is lazily wiped on his shirt after he shoved his cock back into his boxers and it's like nothing happened at all. he reaches to rewind the tape back to the beginning until it clicks and the machine spits it back out, and it's shoved back into the pristine sleeve to be put aside before he moves on to the stack of returns.

There are four files per career (eg. AdultCareer_AnimalCare, AdultCareer_AnimalCare_Conditions, AdultCareer_AnimalCare_LTW and TeenElderCareer_AnimalCare).

All four files are required and can just be put straight into your downloads folder.

You will notice some of the above career levels do not match the original careers. Some of the levels are already represented in other careers in the game, so I decided to swap some around and include some new jobs.

These files have new GUID numbers, so they should not conflict with other downloads, even the original versions of these careers.

The Lifetime Wants are also compatible with @lamare-sims 50 New Lifetime Wants for Sims 2: https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=669675

I'd like to thank the following members of our community for their assistance in these updates:

@sims2idea-lientebollemeis2i for creating the converted careers to begin with and providing their permission to share my amendments. Their original careers can be found here: https://s2idownloads.blogspot.com/search/label/SFS%20-%201t2%20Maxis%27%20Careers

@lamare-sims for creating the 50 New Lifetime Wants for Sims 2 mod and providing me assistance in making the Lifetime Wants compatible with their mod.

@sharlasims for her assistance and support with creating the chance cards.

@teaaddictyt For her Photoshop skills and support with converting the career icons.

@episims for their assistance troubleshooting the career outfits.

@rio-sims & @palominocorn for creating a tutorial on how to create Lifetime Wants.

I hope you enjoy my version of these careers and please do not hesitate to contact me if you run into any trouble. 06/07/2023 - EDIT: Thank you to @lamare-sims who found some errors in the files. I have fixed the LTW and Conditions files to reflect some correct instance numbers and I have reuploaded the zip files to include up the amended files. Please replace these two files for each career if you have already downloaded it. 05/08/2023 - UPDATE: @bothersomecryptid has touched up the icons and been kind enough to share them! They made them with to work better with the Clean UI. You just need to replace the images in the career file through SimPE. You can download at this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q5j3AniepLh_lE_kgWgOYOkZkq9EzHNJ/view 03/09/2023 - EDIT: Thank you to @equinoxts2 and @lamare-sims for their further edits to the conditions files. I have reuploaded all files as new links, so feel free to replace the ones in your game. Children should no longer roll LTW's and you shouldn't get any errors when choosing these LTW's. 06/09/2023 - @venomander has been kind enough to create alternative icons for the careers.

The origins of gyaru possibly go back to the 1980s when all-girl biker gangs ruled Tokyo’s streets. Their hardcore style, attitude and rites of passage like graduation ceremonies, very much remind us of the gyaru of today. Even more so they embodied a rebellious spirit, now referred to as gyaru maindo (gyaru mind). The magazine “Teen’s Road” that brought this biker style to small town schoolgirls. Over time, leather jackets and boiler suits with kanji lettering became a more mainstream trend and real biker girls got angry at posers! Teen’s Road eventually ended because the staff were “tired of being physically assaulted by the readers” and some biker girls were even kidnapped.

At the same time, elite university clubs were throwing parties in Shibuya with organisers known as chiimaa (teamers). These well-to-do chiimaa regularly hit the dance floor instead of hitting the books. Chiimaa’s girlfriends mimicked LA beach style and earned the nickname paragyaru or “paradise girls”. Paragyaru didn’t know yet but their dress sense would inspire what was to follow in the 1990s,

Kogyaru (“ko” meaning “little” or “kid”) appeared in the 1990s. The name is believed to have originated as bouncer slang to describe the high school paragyaru girls who tried to sneak into clubs by dressing older. Affluent high school girls with chestnut coloured dyed hair (chapatsu), short school skirts, designer uniform blazers, oversized cardigans and modest tans were the trendsetters of the time. Loose white socks and white eye makeup were the cherry on top! But why were high school girls wearing their uniform after school? It was actually a popular ploy for rich schools to entice new freshmen with the fashionable designer uniforms. Girls wanted to be seen wearing their blazer and skirt after school as a marker of style, school pride and as a symbol of youth.

High schoolers eventually took over department store Shibuya109. Anything bought there was considered kogyaru style, like crop tops from Me Jane and Esperanza platform sandals. Many of the first kogyaru began to work at 109 shops becoming well-known gyaru fashionistas, dubbed “super charisma clerks” (スーパーカリスマ店員). Celebrities like singer Amuro Namie with her natural kogyaru appearance placed gyaru style into the mainstream’s consciousness. She had a natural Okinawan tan, light brown hair and wore white lipstick. Her stage outfits mimicked 109 style, and so Amuro fans thinned their eyebrows, wore chunky platform boots and colourful belly tops in admiration. That earned them the nickname Amuraa (Amuro admirers) which crossed over with gyaru style.

In 1995, Egg magazine launched as the number one source of gyaru fashion and lifestyle. After all, gyaru didn’t care what others thought about them and they took pleasure in being loud, sex-positive and even developed their own slang. Egg magazine took street snaps of kogyaru who sometimes went on to become regular models, for example Rumi Itabashi and Kaoru Watanabe. Meanwhile, purikura launched in 1995 with the idea for business professionals to take miniature portraits of themselves for their business cards. No one foresaw them becoming super popular in gyaru culture, with pages and pages dedicated to them in Egg.

Adults were worried about Japan’s declining national character in the late 1990s. Kogyaru with their gyaru mind ethos were targeted and chastised for their alleged practice of enjo kōsai (compensated dating). Growing up with new tech like pokeberu (early pagers) and terekura (telephone clubs), these women gained more independence but also new ways to wreak havoc. For example, terekura were created to connect men and women who wanted to date. But when kogyaru called in to the terekura, they set the men up on a date just to stand them up.

Teenage girls were also widely viewed as serial shopaholics. People thought that they wouldn’t think twice about selling their worn underwear to businessmen for money! Even though only a handful of kogyaru did this, the media didn’t care! Kogyaru were the face of “shameful” public morals. But the more the media covered enjo kōsai, the more schoolgirls congregated in Shibuya’s streets to make big bucks! In the end teenage prostitution became associated with kogyaru style.

After a decade of kogyaru mania, new substyles and gyaru circles emerged. One of the most prominent gyaru circles was Angeleek. Angeleek primarily wore a style of gyaru called ganguro, which were gyaru who darkened their skin. Other substyles like mamba and yamanba evolved out of ganguro. Yamanba wore the darkest foundation they could get their hands on, wore extreme white eyeliner, harsh nose contour and decorated their cheeks with gems and flowers. They liked tropical, beachy clothes and floral accessories. It was dramatic and yamanba were impossible to ignore! But by the early 2000s there was a sudden decline in these more extreme styles. Due to the style’s unsavory reputation, girls turned to other substyles of gyaru or stopped being gyaru completely. Egg even took a break from publishing for a few months. Was this the end?

Not exactly! Egg and other gyaru magazines returned as the mid-2000s brought about an unexpected gyaru renaissance. In 2005, another magazine called Ageha was launched. It was aimed at gyaru Hostesses who called their style agejo. By 2008, gyaru was thriving and there were so many genres of gyaru and the style became more popular internationally. Styles like hime-gyaru, hime-kaji, onee-gyaru, rokku-gyaru and ame-kaji entered the scene. Tsubasa Masuwaka, a prominent gyaru figure at the time, was featured on both gyaru and non-gyaru magazine covers. She also launched a makeup and false lashes line called Dolly Wink which is still popular today!

The late 2000s to mid 2010s saw a more laid back toned-down look. Gradually, girls lost interest in the style and Egg and Ageha ceased publication. Gyaru brands followed the magazines by toning down or rebranding. In 2014, Alisa Ueno’s brand Fig&Viper was dubbed as neo-gyaru in an article by ViVi magazine which sparked some debate. Many gyaru did not view this brand as gyaru and Alisa Ueno herself admitted that she never called her brand neo-gyaru.

Not many other styles have lasted as long, or made so many comebacks. From the biker gangs of the 1980s to the yamanba of the 2000s, gyaru fashion has gone through many changes. Some even claim we are in a post-gyaru era! Will it ever become a mainstream fashion again? Who knows, but in the meantime we’ll be rehearsing our Para Para dance moves!

Chihiro Natsuyaki SR - “From Now, The Two Of Us” (Part 2)

Location: HAMA House - Rooster Room

Tao: Amazing….!

Tao: Even though this room was so empty before, now it feels like a store has opened up in here

Chihiro: Well? Well? Isn’t it, like, mega adorbs? Chii puts all the efforts into decorating this room to match Chii’s fav aesthetics ☆

Chihiro: …..Erm, do you…. like it?

Tao: Yeah. It looks really flashy, but…..

Tao: You arranged these furnitures with me in mind, right?

Tao: You even took the time to put on the sunglasses-wearing sunflower that was lost inside my luggage

TL Note: Tao named this decoration グラサンフラワー. He used グラサン, which is slang for サングラス (sunglasses), just by saying it backwards. It’s kinda a pun too bc SUNglasses-wearing SUNflower, hence グラサンフラワー (with サンフラワー being self-explanatory “sunflower”)

Chihiro: Ain’t it adorable~? ♪ Can Chii stream with this cutie next time?

Tao: Of course

Tao: You didn’t just only put your hobbies first, but you also considered my feelings…..

Tao: You do have a kind side to you after all

Tao: Thank you, Chihiro. You’ve worked hard

Chihiro: …..Ehehe, you’re very welcome!

Chihiro: Hey, hey, guess what? Chii got a game that Tao-Tao will for sure love! Check it out!

Chihiro: Chii was like, “Reprint Edition? What’s that?”. Chii just thought that the design was, like, totes adorbs and seemed interesting

Chihiro: So Chii consulted with the store clerk and got the game along with everything else too!

TL Note: In this part, Chihiro used “ソフト”, which by default means “software” but games that required consoles in Japan are also referred to as “ソフト” (short for ゲームソフト/game software aka video games), i.e: Switchソフト is Switch Games. Which means that when Chihiro said “got the game along with everything else”, it’s referring to how he got the the game and the console as well, and later on Tao talks about cables so safe to assume he bought the console for sure lmao

Tao: Woah, this brings back memories…..! I used to be obsessed with this!

Tao: Looking at it now, the 3D graphics looks super blocky and the movements are choppy, but this was considered cutting-edge at the time

Tao: To think that they could turn flat pixel art into something with depth using CG. Stuffs like this really amazed me

Chihiro: Hehe, is that so?

Chihiro: Then, tell Chii all about the rest of it when we play

Tao: Of course!

Tao: Woah, even the cables are like how they used to be. They’ve done an incredible job recreating this!

Chihiro: Chii’ll get the snacks and drinks ready! Tao-Tao, can you handle the preparations on your end?

Tao: Yeah. Leave it to me

Chihiro: (…..At first, I was really nervous. I wondered if I could really live with someone besides my own family)

Chihiro: (But…..)

Tao: …..Connection all set. Oh, it’s on, it’s on!

Chihiro: (Living here together with Tao-Tao…. This is going to be fun)

Tao: Alright, Chihiro. I’ll show you how to play, and then we can have a match later

Chihiro: You bet! Chii’s definitely not gonna lose!

Chihiro: (Nope, it’s definitely gonna be fun!)

[ff7-has-taken-me-over]

I had the thought of Sam and Optimus switching places and it is, oof. It sounds fun. Like Sam’s young for a Cybertronian, much less a prime.

If he weren’t then it would’ve been somewhat more believable since Bee was younger than him but nobody believed he was a prime. Couldn’t understand how he’d ever managed to become one when the last of them were wiped out with the war and he’d been born in the midst of it.

Sam himself never even understood it. Only knew he was supposed to be going after the all spark which was on Earth and that he’d be taking his closest comrades with him. They were like family to him. A wildly dangerous and overprotective one despite his technical higher ranking status but a family none the less.

Orion was your average middle aged worker. Making visits to his local antique store once a month and picking up random little trinquetes and nice bits of furniture from there. His recent trip wasn’t too much of a success this time around, only a couple good books and a pair of glasses that were a little cracked. He’d thought they looked cool and would add a little charm to his entry table.

Despite the meagre finds the store clerk had insisted he take a picture for their social media since he’d visited the shop so many times. Something like a regular celebratory thing or something. He wasn’t sure honestly. Had even felt a little bad because he didn’t actually know the woman’s name despite visiting once a month. Only knew that she wasn’t the owner and was just another employee.

Now obviously Sam and the others find him through this social media post. They still send in Bee because Ratchet and Ironhide had been adamant Sam wasn’t allowed to be the one to do it and Bee was all too eager to have a mission after so long without.

So the start of the movie plays somewhat similarly, just no bike chase or love interest (thought maybe Elita can be there but as a friend dragged into crazy shenanigans rather than a love interest) before they all meet!

Oh! Also I had the thought! Since Sam is so young still and with the war and everything he never actually got a name, he still actually goes by his designation number or just the numbers for short. But his designation could either be S-113 or S-413. So it’d either be S-1-13 (S-A-M) or S-4-13. Like a licence plate sorta thing.

📚💸 Career + Wealth Analysis 💸📚

One of the most frequent questions astrologers receive from their clients when doing a chart reading is about their career, profession or work.

The labor we do on an everyday basis is essential when it comes to our finances and self fulfillment. It can either be something we enjoy doing that meets all of our needs, or what brings a paycheck yet lacks inner satisfaction.

There are several ways to confirm if the work you are doing is activating your Venus properly, and you may wonder why that planet in particular? Simple! Venus is related to finances, luxury, and comfort. The jobs that align with our Venus sign tend to be the ones that not only fits into our financial needs, but also provides a genuine feeling of contentment.

So, if you want the straight forward answer to “What career/field/job/hobby can help me create wealth and feel joyful about it?” Then Venus is your short answer. Remember that wealth will look differently for everyone since we all have different perceptions of how much money is truly enough to have the lifestyle we dream of.

Look for the Sidereal sign that your Venus falls in, find below the careers or fields related to it, and confirm for yourself the difference in your wealth accumulation once you incorporate it into your life.

Note: please keep in mind that if your Venus is conj, square or opposite a malefic planet/s (Mars, Saturn, Rahu/Ketu), there will be some natural resistance or challenges that you will experience throughout life with work, job, profession, or financial matters. Venus in Virgo, Scorpio, and Capricorn to a degree could also experience similar experiences.

The house where this planet is placed also tells a lot about the way your job manifests in your life (places, people, etc). Now, there are many ways to remediate any negative effects, so no need to be concerned or feel doomed.

There are many advanced Vedic Astrologers who mostly focus on remediation of planets that are in difficult or challenged positions, so take a look at the options available if you ever feel like there's an extra difficulty for you in those matters.

The distinguished architect John Burnett died on July 2nd 1938 at Colinton, Edinburgh.

Burnett designed buildings the length and breadth of the British Isles and on the continent of Europe and as far afield as South Africa.

John Burnet was born a soldier's son at Craighead House, Kirk O' Shotts, and trained initially as a carpenter. After becoming a Clerk of Works, he set up as an architect specializing in modest churches and houses in the Italianate and Classical styles, and large-scale commercial buildings and hospitals in the Italian Renaissance, Baronial and Gothic styles.

One of his first undertakings in Glasgow was the Royal Institute of the Fine Arts in Sauchiehall Street, which was won by competition. Other notable buildings there are the offices of the Clyde Trust, the Athenaeum, the Botanical Department and extension of the University, the Pathological Institute, the Barony Church.

In Edinburgh he designed the Professional and Civil Service Stores, George Street, the business premises of R. W. Forsyth in Princes Street, which later housed Burtons for many years, and in Scotland and England generally many public, ecclesiastical and domestic buildings. He was also architect for the Edinburgh International Exhibition of 1906.

Important commissions came to him from London and to London he devoted the latter part of his life, the firm, of which he was senior partner, being known as Sir John Burnet, Tait & Lorne. He had the honour in 1905 of being entrusted by the Government with the important additions to the British Museum, now known as the King Edward VII. Galleries.

Among his numerous London designs are the Institute of Chemistry in Russell Square, the Kodak building in Kingsway, Adelaide House and Vigo House, and the Second Church of Christ Scientist. He was the chief architect in Palestine and Gallipoli for the Imperial War Graves Commission.

The professional esteem with which Sir John was regarded in Britain may be expressed by the words used in connection with the conferring of the Gold Medal of the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1923, ‘‘ Few architects living can compare with him either in quantity or quality of output, and fewer still may be said to have had as pervasive an influence on the work of their own time.”

In France he had received both bronze and gold medals at the Salon and was a corresponding member of the Institute of France and of the Société central des Architectes Francais. He had the same relation with the American Institute of Architects.

Knighted in 1914, Sir John was a member of both the Royal Scottish Academy and the Royal Academy. He was an Honorary LL.D., of Glasgow and Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects, of the Royal Society, Edinburgh, and of the Royal Society of Antiquaries.

Though he took fewer commissions personally, Burnet worked into his late seventies – he designed the famous Unilever building on London in 1933 - before he eventually retired, spending his final years at Colinton in Edinburgh. He died at home at the age of 81 on this day, 1938, he is buried at Warriston Cemetery.

A3! Backstage Story Translation - Tsumugi Tsukioka SR: Searching for My Style - Part 2

Tsumugi: The suits section should be… Around here.

Tsumugi: Woah… There are a lot more types than I expected.

Izumi: There’s also a special feature for wedding suits.

Tsumugi: Looks like there are a lot of people buying suits for the same reason I am.

Izumi: Seems like it.

Tsumugi: … I’m really sorry for making you help me pick a suit, Director.

Choice 1: It’d be nice if we can find a suit you like

Izumi: It’d be nice if we can find a suit you like.

Tsumugi: It really would be…

Izumi: I’m sure it’s hard when there’s so many to pick from…

Tsumugi: I wonder if I’d be able to recognize what would look good on me in the blink of an eye if I wore suits regularly like Itaru-kun and Chikage-san do.

Izumi: Ahhh… They do seem used to wearing suits, don’t they?

Tsumugi: Yes. I think it’s cool how wearing suits is no big deal for them–

Izumi: But I think that because you usually wear casual clothes, you look fresh and dashing when you wear a suit.

Tsumugi: You think so? Hearing you say that makes me feel a little more confident.

Choice 2: It’s fun seeing all these suits

Izumi: It’s fun seeing all these suits. And it can also serve as reference for future costumes.

Tsumugi: I’m glad you think so. I would’ve never picked one if I was by myself.

Izumi: I also have a hard time whenever I have to pick what to wear for a wedding, so I get how you feel.

Izumi: Let’s take a look around now that we’re here! I’ll help too.

Tsumugi: Thank you so much! You’re so reliable.

Izumi: Hmmm… There are so many patterns with similar designs and colors.

Tsumugi: What should we do… I wasn’t expecting there to be so many varieties, so now I really don’t know what to pick.

Izumi: Wouldn’t it be better if we asked a store clerk for their opinion?

Tsumugi: Let’s do that.

Tsumugi: Um, excuse me.

Clerk: Yes, can I help you?

Tsumugi: I’m looking for a suit to wear to a wedding…

Clerk: A wedding! Your friend’s?

Tsumugi: Yes.

Clerk: Then, I’d recommend something from the ones over here.

Clerk: For those with cool undertones, we have the ones over here. For those with warm undertones, I believe the ones over there would be best.

Tsumugi: Cools… Warms…?

Clerk: Then, for those with a natural body type, there are the ones over here, and over here for the ones with wavy hair… And these for those with straight hair.

Tsumugi: Uh, umm…!

Tsumugi: Director, what should I do…

Izumi: (What do I even say, I didn’t understand much either…!)

Izumi: Tsumugi-san, since it’s come to this, all you can do is that.

Tsumugi: … Yes. I’m left with no choice but to try all of them on!

-

Tsumugi: I’m home.

Izumi: Welcome back, Tsumugi-san. I hope the wedding was good.

Izumi: Oh, how was the suit?

Tsumugi: Ah, umm…

Izumi: Hm…?

Tsumugi: …

[Flashback starts]

Classmate A: It’s been a month, Tsumugi-kun~ … Huh? This isn’t the suit you were wearing last time, is it?

Classmate B: Has your taste in suits changed, Tsukioka?

Tsumugi: No, I just bought a new one. There’s been a lot of weddings lately. I wouldn’t have bought one if it wasn’t for occasions like this…

Classmate C: I see. You don’t wear suits often now that you’re an actor, do you?

Tsumugi: Pretty much.

Classmate D: Hey, hey, Tsukioka-kun… Did you get a girlfriend?

Tsumugi:  Eh!?

Classmate A: Ahh, I get it. My tastes in clothes also changed after I got a boyfriend.

Classmate B: Seriously, Tsukioka? You should’ve told us earlier!

Tsumugi: No, that’s not it…

Classmate C: It’s cool, It’s cool, we can keep a secret! It’ll turn into a scandal if it gets out, after all~

Tsumugi: That’s really not it–

[Flashback ends]

Tsumugi: (... I can’t really explain that to her.)

Izumi: Did it feel weird in some way?

Tsumugi: N-Not at all! They told me it looks good on me.

Izumi: I’m glad~!

Tsumugi: (Let’s leave it at that for now.)

[ambermoment]

filler while i digitalize my other regretevator designs idk

introducing: dumbfuck and the guy who likes her

design note time. okay

so when making scags body i still wanted her to just be a head technically. my workaround for this was simple:

i gave her an armless mannequin (same type as mark) base to attach her claw to and tape to a voomba (cant move however as the mannequin is weighing it down). prototype PROBABLY helped with this at least a little

the store clerk shirt i gave her is sorta based on like.. my own roblox scag avatar

her actual head is made to look like a normal box computer.. while also having unecessary additions. yeah those antennae and buttons are just arts & crafts works and stickers left by prototype

speaking of prototype, i wanted him to feel unfinished in a more literal sense, both unintentionally and intentionally. his horns being inconsistent, even more of his shell being missing, the odd looking tail, stuff like that

his legs are sorta unevenly set because of this.. he could theoretically be given a limp through this design. he also generally looks more reptilic..

i also gave him little bruises, INCLUDING ones that look like scars left behind from chest surgery!! (breast surgery?? i actually dont know what to call it)

thats about it. see you when i (hopefully) get the other 4 designs i have (pest, folly, drretro, bive) done and maybe 2 extras.. teehee
