#IT'S TIME FOR AAAAASK ASHLIE

[ofgodsandllamas]

University Life: Would you say you are more of a nerd, jock, rebel, or none of these?, Island Paradise: Have you ever been snorkeling or scuba diving?, and Movie Stuff: What is your favorite movie?

Oooh thank you for these, these are fun ones!!! :3 

University Life: Would you say you are more of a nerd, jock, rebel, or none of these?

Honestly my whole life I hella identified as a nerd but now I’d saw.... none, tbh? Not like, in a forsaking nerds kind of way, either. I’m not actually sure how to explain this lmao but I guess I just don’t feel as strongly in that way? I guess mostly because I feel like I’m more just just one thing~~? If that makes any sense? lmao 

Island Paradise: Have you ever been snorkeling or scuba diving?

No but I’d LOVE to! idk about scuba diving - I feel like I might get that weird kind of claustrophobia that you get not in small spaces but vast ones that STILL feel like you’re claustrophobic? But it’d be such a cool experience. Snorkeling would be so cool, though!

Movie Stuff: What is your favorite movie?

I am SO bad at picking fave movies - mostly cos I’m really bad at keeping up with anything and also cos I seldom rewatch things like a loser. THAT SAID, Clueless, 10 Things I Hate About You, and Legally blonde are FOREVER my favorites. (sometimes Donnie Darko too? lmao one of these things is not like the other~~)

[trashlie]

Ashlie! It's me, gokusdonut! Thanks for following my side blog! :D It’s like every time Yamamori pulls an HnR stunt, it revives the fandom from the trenches. ;_; Shishio is happy now with a woman who brings out the best in him, and he's taking chances and being honest, because he knows a good thing when he sees one. And like, they're the freaking cutest adults ever. That KISS GOT ME!

I saw the neefa talks tag and I went SHE HAS ANOTHER BLOG?! and instantly followed lmao. I’m so bad about keeping up with tumblr lately (pure laziness, some depression, and also being all too involved with my sims blog lately) lmao but it’s like something inside me ALWAYS KNOWS when something HnR is happening and I show up and LO AND BEHOLD THERE IT IS! lmao *____________* AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH this is wonderful!!!!!! I’m really happy for him ;A; (and also because it’s such a good writing move for her part; I’ve heard a lot of bad things about her new manga so I’m happy to see lmao she still is capable of doing something well ;A;) LIKE!!!!! ;A; IDK SHISHIO REALLY NEEDED TO BE ABLE TO FINALLY MOVE ON AND WITH SOMEONE HE’S SO COMPATIBLE WITH CRIES IT’S SO WONDERFUL. LOOK HOW MUCH HE’S GROWN UP! LOOK HOW MUCH HE’S LEARNED FROM HIS PREVIOUS MISTAKES! ;A; Finally going AFTER the person he likes and BEING OPEN AND HONEST rather than just letting things be or expecting her to understand akfjakfjakjf THEIR MUTUAL LOVE FOR SHOUJO LMAO IS SO PRECIOUS ;A; UGH UGH UGH. I’m honestly so delighted!!!!!

(Also I just love love LOVE any time she does something with HnR like… I just want to keep getting cute little side stories, maybe a cute Shishio/Samejima josei forever. Like updates about the friends how are they doing? lmao I guess truly the one thing I can never let go of is HnR :333 (and all the wonderful friends and community I gained through it :333)

UGH I’M SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ladyashlie]

Yeah, funny story. We stayed up all night on our first date talking, I had to work the next morning so he offered to let me stay the night, I declined. (I didn't have extra clothes with me, &I already liked him so much I was worried about doing something I would regret) So he asked me to come back the next day after work, I did. I spent the night &I've stayed every night since. We have talked about marriage, & I would like him to ask, but the wait is killing me. Like, how does a woman propose?

I'm legit the worst at replying in a timely manner, I'm really sorry. BUT I WAS TOTALLY THINKING ABOUT YOUR RESPONSE WHILE I WAS IN THE SHOWER (That sounds creepy; sorry! I was just reminding myself I need to respond!) and GOSH THAT SOUNDS SO CUTE!!!!! Have you guys talked about moving in together? (Unless it's just not an option right now!) Cos man it sounds like you guys are so cutely happy together and THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY!!!! :3 ESPECIALLY THAT FROM THE FIRST DATE YOU ALREADY LIKED HIM SO MUCH!!!!! like literally that just makes me so freaking happy when people just INSTANTLY CLICK with someone and you can see all that potential and the blossoming hope and aljfdklajf :333 oh man!!!!

I MEAN!!! I never did the proposing myself but surely just the same way as a guy ;D I mean I guess it depends on what kind of proposal you want to go with! If you want to be traditional and ask him to marry you or something cute as heck all "I want you to be my husband" HHAHAHAHAA I JUST STARTED GIGGLING TO MYSELF ABOUT THAT awwwwwww. Or you could just be very serious about it and tell him what you've told me - that you know he's the one and you want to spend forever with him, that you've known and every time you're together you just want to ask him! :3

[mazumeweek]

Finding this blog just made me smile a lot :)

And THAT made ME smile a lot!!!!!

I'm truly so glad!!!! I can't wait for the upcoming week and all the fantastic edits and fanart and fanfics we'll have coming in! The blog is already so full of so much amazing Mazume-works and now we get to EXPAND on it in a celebration of everything. And isn't that so exciting!

[taggingitup]

This is a question! Can you answer it?

This is an answer. Does it answer anything any of your questions? I'm happy to help!

[clickndragkpop]

Thank you guys for making this, it's so much fun!

We're so happy you enjoy these! We have a lot of fun with them, too, and even more fun making them and reading everyone's responses! Nothing like a little fun with idol fantasies to really perk you up, right? I hope you'll continue watching and playing all the new games we'll have! I know we haven't had anything new recently - we've gotten a little busy, but rest assured more will come and we've plenty more ideas, too!

[ashwooed]

This is what an ask looks like!

And hey, this is an answer!

Awww yisssss beautiful!

[migook]

You made a little mistake: "제가 is more concerned with WHO BOUGHT whereas 제는 is more concerned with WHAT I DID." Actually it's the other way around , the topic marker emphasizes the word you attach it to, which in this case would be 저. So the emphasis in 저는 샀다 is on 'I', not on 'bought'. Btw...I feel you, topic marker vs. subject marker indeed is one of the hardest grammar points in Korean ;;

Ahhhh, thank you! I was going off my notes which means either /I/ made an error copying down things or…. the lesson-maker made an error. Oops. Thank you for the clarification, though!

A you can see that I CLEARLY am not doing super, super well with those! D: Going to fix that now, though, and make further notes in my notes ;______;

Ugh I’m so glad I’m not alone in these! I feel like these two, especially are the most difficult! I am much better with object marking particles and obviously matters like location marking particles aren’t NEARLY as difficult as understanding the nuance and subtleties of topic and subject marking particles ;____________; I feel like if I could just magically figure those out, this would be a lot easier, hah!

But once again, thank you so much for pointing that out. Ack! ;________;” one day I will get there, haha! D: 감사합니다!

[ofgodsandllamas]

hi there, sorry to bother you but i was wondering if you know where i can find the plastic patio chair recolors seen in /post/156731445419?

It’s no bother at all! :3 I believe those chairs are recolored by @vimpse and you can find them here! At least I’m like 99.9% that’s them! I love them so much! :3 Enjoy!!!

[ofgodsandllamas]

10, 20, 23 :)

Oh thank you for the questions! ♥ I answered the first two but I’ll go ahead and paste them here anyway! :3

10. What sim traits do you give yourself?

From Sims 3 I picked absent minded, overemotional, bookworm, easily impressed, and night owl. i feel like that’s one too many but. alas. LMAO they are all inherently me! ngl if I make myself a TS2 self sim I’ll probably just go Scorpio and then go from there. I’m trying to remember my TS4 traits. You’d think with fewer options it’d be easier to remember? Creative and bookworm are probably involved lmao

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

WOOOOOOOOOOO. BOY.

Back in the day everything was photoskinned and realistic, remember those days? I avoided the super shiny skins that looked covered in oil but I remember a period of playing before matte skins or even maxis-match skins became much of a thing. Remember when all the clothes were these weird tight, photoskinned dresses and pumps because no one ever put sims in tennis shoes oh my GOD, EVEN THE TEENS!!!! If I can manage to dig out pics - cos I know they exist SOMEWHERE on lj - yo I’ll post em up cos WOW THOSE WERE THE DAYS. I distinctly remember when repositorying started to become a thing and when maxis match started to happen, but eventually I was dipping out into TS3 where I became way more concerned about maxis match than I’d ever been before. By the time I returned to TS2 there was so much more matte maxis match skins way less photoskinning clothing so many STYLES and color palettes GOD THANK GOD FOR COLOR PALETTES I mean Pooklet-ing was a thing back then but still, you know? 

Even going more specific, I use less of the pearly hair textures (tho sometimes certain ones still get to me!) and even the make up style changed but I think that’s partially a reflection of my own make up styles changing (everyone gets matte lips!!!!! I hardly touch glossy lips anymore!) 

A blast from the past (but it’s only 2011, so lmao i’m trying to see if I can find things from 2007/2008 lmao)

23. How long have you had a simblr?

Since November 2012! It’s funny to think that I was posting TS2 stuff in 2011 and then so quickly was TS3 in 2012, but aaahhhh if I remember right I took a very long TS3 break until we had more EPs and stuff! I specifically remember moving to Texas with my husband and treating myself to Supernatural and Seasons as my birthday gift and starting up my simblr! Mostly cos I’d been eyeing @sectumsimpra‘s blog and I missed lurking in the sims community lmao. Obviously my blog has had many uh…….. lacks of use LMAO but you know. I’M TRYING TO KEEP UP THESE DAYS!

[ofgodsandllamas]

1, 10, 12, 20 :D

1. What’s your favorite sims death?

Okay this is gonna lmao reveal some shit…. I’ve RARELY had sims die in game! Mostly cos I am such a careful player (controlling) and often cos I’d move out elders and stop playing them so I never had to deal with death by old age LMAO SO I’VE YET TO ACTUALLY EXPERIENCE MANY DEATHS…………………. it’s pretty sad lmao 

10. What sim traits do you give yourself?

From Sims 3 I picked absent minded, overemotional, bookworm, easily impressed, and night owl. i feel like that’s one too many but. alas. LMAO they are all inherently me!

12. Favorite EA hair?

Oh shoot this a good question. Okay so back before I ever had defaults in the ye old days of TS2 I had a bad habit of abusing Bella’s hair lmaooooo for like. Everything! And also that fake curly/wavy looking shoulder-length hair? That’s….. not CC right? lmao But now days I have defaults so bye bye to those hairs! TS4 tho has that long curly hair and I had to stop myself from putting it on EVERYONE. But also some of the EPs have some cute ass hairs, I’m just blanking on things cos I’m really sleepy D:

Hello almighty Ashlie ! Wcif the cute oval paintings in the St Claire's kitchen ? Thanks in advance :)

picture reference

Aflkjafkaf almighty hahaha you’re so cute, thank you hahaha! 

Woo boy I did a search and a HALF for this one and now I understand why I was having so much trouble finding it lmao. It LOOKS like the original creator deleted or changed their name - originally they were tangsims so if anyone knows of a name change, please let me know! 

This set in particular can be found HERE. Even tho they deleted I managed to find a reblogged version of it! It’s a box download so you probably need the fix, but better than nothing! :3 In addition, from this creator, I also like to use THIS FRUIT SET and also this silly cute ALLIGATOR ONE. 

And then because I was on a search I went ahead and grabbed links to other oval sets, in case you didn’t already have them yet! 

THIS SET by @shiasims is one of my faves, cos it has recolorable frames! 

SOME MORE by @tombstoneoflifeanddeath that I def use a lot, on shiasims edited mesh. 

the very lovely @biffysims has a set HERE AS WELL that I love to use

And finally, I can’t remember where @lina-cherie moved their TS2 downloads (I need to do a proper check later) but with THIS POST you can grab the ones they did with some motifs from their game as well as lesyasun’s, if you like other pics in your game! :3 

WOO BOY there’s certainly others out there but these are ones I tend to use a lot. (and as I don’t have a proper TS2 finds blog LMAO i wanted to sort of use this WCIF as a placeholder for when I inevitably can’t find any of these again lmao) 

[ofgodsandllamas]

1, 8, 9 :D

I reblogged A THING 2 days ago and forgot to come in and answer cos I was on my craptop so much lmao MY BAD. Thank you so much for sending in a few!

Which is your favorite Sims Expansion?

HARD QUESTION IS HARD! I guess it depends on the series tbh. For TS2 I’m always torn between Season’s and Apartment Life. Season’s was just revolutionary to me! The way the lighting changed per season and each season had a special perk? I was floored! Autumn wooed me with those golden tones ugh man! And getting to garden! But idk Apartment Life really did something for me - even tho I don’t play apartments as often as I’d like to! (That said maybe Free Time should be the other fave…….. Or OfB…. SEE HOW HARD THIS IS? 

TS3 tho? Generations, hands down! Tho it’s tied for me with Uni and Island Paradise. But then again…… Supernatural………. and Seasons…… GAH!!!! I’m gonna say Generations, Seasons, and Uni. Generations just blew everything away for me. I love LOVE the teen age so having cute little things like prom and teen parties was the COOLEST and I’m desperately hoping we get something similar on TS4 cos it just adds SO MUCH dimension to the game! 

As far as TS4 goes, for now it’s City Living and Get Together, which is like, 2/3 of their releases I know. But I feel like TS4 does so much more throwing out Game Packs and SPs as well that it’s almost hard to weigh these. That said, I’m a sucker for any city life and TS4 leaves me YEARNING for proper city living in my own real life. San Myshuno is gorgeous, I love the festivals, I love the apartment elements, everything is so cool to me! Get Together is similar! Windenburg is THE PERFECT aesthetic, all the new items are gorgeous, the new locations and clubs and alfjjfkafkjafj I just really love it!!!!!

What is your favorite thing about the Sims?

No matter the incarnation for me it all comes down to raising little families and worlds. I used to do a lot of perfect play and I still struggle to break myself away from being ultra controlling of my little pixel people. Mostly, I just love creating them and letting them live - make families or destroy them or forsake them all together. Businesses and trying to achieve their LTWs and climb to the top of the ladder. Especially now that I do BACC’s and round robin hood plays in TS2, I love seeing how families grow, who befriends who, how things are related. Like, in my hood Starryfay it was just crazy, seeing who fell in love with who and who wanted to kill the others lmao. I like their little lives, man. 

What is your least favorite thing about the Sims?

For TS2, it’s just a matter of, you know, being dated. I wish we had tools like S4S that made creating recolors far less tedious. I wish it was easier to decorate as it is in TS4, too, lmao. I hate decorating in TS2 cos TO THIS DAY I’ve yet to really mess around with/figure out OMSPs and stuff lmaoooooo 

I think with TS4 it’s the fact that we have so few traits - and I know there’s mods for that which I intend to definitely get and mess with some time, but it DOES make my sims feel a little more…. one dimensional I guess? Also lack of things like ACR and even the fact that in my experience there isn’t as much negative matters? Does that make sense? Like, with TS2 your sims can hate each other without you interfering too much but in TS4 I feel like I have to FORCE that? 

[trashlie]

hi idk when you changed your icon, but i just saw it and you're adorable

alkjfjafjafajkf :3333 Awwwwwww thank you so much!!!!!! :3 I can’t even remember when I changed my icon but it was pretty recent-y. It was long overdue for a change haahaha. :3 Thank yooooooooou :* ♥♥♥

[ofgodsandllamas]

Hello! Wcif Maeve's pjs? :)

Heya! You can get her pjs from this set in @datapeach’s blog! I especially like it because it’s for all ages and both genders, which is great! The whole post has some cute stuff, too, if you haven’t stumbled upon it yet! Enjoy!!!

[trashlie]

skin, sheets, and lips!

skin- do you want any tattoos 

Nah, not really tbh? I just. idk man tattoos are so permanent and I don’t think there’s anything in my life with the same lasting permanence. And as it is, the only tats I, personally, am into the most are those neat ass watercolor tats, but holy shit, those would need so much touching up to stay so vibrant and pretty and i just. idk man. what would i tat on me? \o/ And, as it is, I really fucking hate needles, I really hate pain, anyone who tells me it doesn’t hurt that much is LYING!!!!! ;A;

sheets- how many blankets do you sleep with 

Just one, but it’s so thick and cozy and comfortable and nice that I don’t really need any more! I mean, my upstairs heats up really nice so come winter it’s not so bad I need more than that, and anyway, Texas winters got NOTHING on Iowa winters (where I slept with a blanket, an electric blanket, and sometimes one of those small fuzzy blankets from Walmart lmao)

lips- what is your favorite thing to taste

This is also a hard one, aaaaaaaaah! Again, I think depending on my mood, things change but I guess in the end, peach tea (iced tea, not hot!) and white peppermint or white caramel mochas are my favorites!!!!! Unless we’re talking more abstract and vague in which case I think I default to savory/salty things (like I will always love salt and vinegar chips!) does this even properly answer the question? Hahahaa!
