Daily TMA 222 - Tim dragged them all out partying to celebrate their new jobs!

[steddie-spooktober]

Time to get ready for Steddie Spooktober Week 1!

As a reminder for everyone participating, posting starts in TWO WEEKS; get those worms a-wigglin' if they haven't been already!!

(see below for the info in the above graphic!)

October 1st - rain

Puddles to jump in, dancing in it, it ruins their plans, cozying up together while it pours, stranded in a storm.. Love or hate it, it’s a staple of midwestern autumns.

October 2nd - woods

Dark and spooky forest, finding sticks that are good enough for swords, there’s something they don’t speak about living in them.

October 3rd - apples

Bobbing for them, picking them, insisting they can shoot one off the others’ head but it’s only their second time with a bow, caramel covered v. candy-coated, adam's apple, apple of their eye

October 4th - corn maze

Are they lost together? Is one super good at finding their way? Maybe one is lost and the other(s) have to find them., something's after them and "Quick! We'll lose 'em in here!"

October 5th - "Did you hear that?"

Was it a spooky sound? Did one of them say something without realizing the other was standing there the whole time? Who knows!

Chapter 1.2 - Bad Dreams Are for the Birds

[POV: MIKO]

The Art History department has two other TAs, but as far as Miko’s concerned, they’re both bullshit.

They haven’t proven themselves incompetent yet, but it's only a matter of time before someone drops the ball, leaving Miko to pick it up. It’s how it always goes down, which is why, despite feeling like absolute crap, she’s organizing the art supply room by herself. 

Next week, the undergrads will start working on pieces for their first critical review. A lot of them are talented, but they’re also inexperienced. And as silly as it seems, having their supplies clearly labeled with helpful hints will be a gift from the Watcher when some professor is picking apart their work and demanding they make quick changes. 

You mean when some professor was picking apart your work because you’re incompetent.

It takes everything to ignore the nasty voice in her head and her burning need to pee. It’s just stress, anyway. She slept like shit—horrifying dreams kept her up half the night—and she still needed to get here early to finish up before the other TAs arrived. 

Her nightmares made no sense. Miko is only 24; she shouldn’t be worried about running out of time. But the clock in her dreams filled her with terror, and she had the strangest sense that she never used to worry about time at all. 

In fact, she used to wield it. 

It’s the kind of bonkers thought she doesn’t allow herself to have anymore. 

Usually, she was fine once she was on campus. It was where she could pretend she didn’t live in a tiny clapboard house in a Newcrest neighborhood the mayor swore would gentrify but hadn’t changed much since Miko was a kid. 

Not that gentrification was good. By the time they cleaned up the drunks in the park and picked up the trash, the cost of housing would be too high, and Miko and her grandmother would have to find somewhere else to live.

And your mother? Did you forget about her, or are you just extra delusional today? 

Miko doubles over at the thought. The worst part is that she knows it's her. She’s being mean to herself and has no idea how to stop it. 

Maybe it’s not the negative voice, you idiot. Maybe you really do just have to pee.

Son of a bitch. That’s probably right. Ignoring the implications of arguing with herself, Miko hauls ass up two flights of stairs until she’s on the second floor of the Commons. 

“Watcher, give me strength,” she prays when she shuts the stall door. The Ojos aren’t religious, but spending primary and secondary school under the watch of cranky nuns gave her the habit.

Her prayers must be getting misdirected, though. While she’s hovering over the toilet seat, fighting for her life, the other two Art History TAs walk into the bathroom and start gossiping. 

“I just don’t understand why she would organize the closet when we already had a plan to work on it this morning,” Emmett says.

“Because she’s a bitch,” Hande laughs, “Seriously. You can’t take it personally. Some sims just don’t know how to act.”

“I mean, but what’s the point?” Emmett continues. “We’re all graduating. Maybe someone will write you a good recommendation for the Royal Arts Fellowship if you go above and beyond. But you can do that without screwing everyone else over.”

“Some sims are unhappy. Like it's a trait,” Hande assures him, “Just ignore her.”

Miko waits until she hears them leave before she limps out of the bathroom stall, bladder still burning and her cheeks joining in on the party. The old nuns were right: The Watcher was a merciless god, and Miko was clearly on her shit list.

Car enthusiasts SPEED DEMONS

How I imagine the convo between them going: Kim: That's an intriguing and handsome motor carriage you have there.

Crowley: *flashes a toothy grin* Yes, she is gorgeous, isn't she? They don't make 'em like this anymore. *gazes fondly at the Bentley before turning a closer eye to Kim's vehicle* Must say, I'm rather intrigued by your car as well . . . .

Crowley: *looks at Kineema quizzically, cocking head side to side, taking in the spindly legs, the boxy shape, the levers instead of wheel, and numerous other things that don't make sense* So how does it uh. . . .work?

Kim: *rattles off a brief manual-worthy functional description and technical specs of which he's particularly proud, which ultimately make it clear to Crowley that the machine is a death trap*

Crowley: So if you were to take just one turn a bit too sharply, the whole thing would come toppling down and just . . . explode.

Kim: Yes.

Crowley: *reflects on how he would not have been able to come up with something so damned in another six millenia* Oh.

Kim: *barest hint of a smile*

Crowley: *raises eyebrows* I will never understand you lot!

Tango, jokingly annoyed: Gives me some milk and a saddle to ride him with!

Zedaph: Hey! There are people out there who would pay good money for that, okay? And you just got it for free.
