WIP #4: Captain Marvel The Animated Series (written)

Episode One: Welcome To Fawcett I

Freddy sat down in the booth across from Billy Batson, surprised by the softness of the seats as he practically sank into them. He took in the decoration of the diner with awe, recognizing the old interior design from pages of history books and old television shows. Looking around, a lot of the photos on the walls were in color, but most of them were in the classic black-and-white style that hadn't aged a day, along with the people in them. The radio on the counter of the kitchen window was playing an old tune, one that Freddy recognized as his grandfather's favorite! He was so enchanted by the vintage nature of the place that he hadn't noticed Billy ordering milkshakes for the both of them. If Freddy hadn't snapped back to reality when their drinks were brought to the table, he was sure he would have been there for hours.

"Wow! You know, I heard that Fawcett was frozen in time for like, decades, but it doesn't really hit you until you get here. The architecture, the people, the whole vibes of everything you all have around here just scream old-timey. No wonder my grandpa wanted to move here, haha-oh, wait! I didn't mean that as an insult, trust me! Fawcett has a good thing going for them. I just need some getting used to it, that's all." Freddy's nervous laughter eased down, as he wiped away the sweat rolling down his face. He was naturally popular in school and around the other kids, as Billy saw firsthand, but actually making friendships and connections with people took more effort than just being a pretty face. Freddy knew that. He just hoped he wouldn't bite his tongue or say the wrong thing as the new kid in town. A kid from the modern day around kids from the past? Yeah, that was for sure going to go great. "I just need to get used to being in this town...it's all new to me." His voice waivered above a whisper at the end, an unsure look in his eyes telling Billy that there was more going on than on the surface.

Billy took in the nervous expression and behavior Freddy was showing, trying to think of a way to calm him down. During school, he could tell that Freddy needed some fresh air and time to think about his move to Fawcett without being bombarded by all the other kids who kept asking him questions. Billy also knew that Freddy moved to Fawcett because of rather...unfortunate reasons, after hearing the rumors that spread around the school, like wildfire, during lunch. He didn't want Freddy to associate Fawcett with negative emotions, thus, the reason for inviting him to Philip's Diner.

"No, it's alright, you don't have to worry about anything, Freddy. Fawcett folk here understand the odd looks we get from the rest of the world." Billy chuckled, taking another sip of his milkshake with a smile. He didn't get the chance to drink these very often, so the moment he saw the chance to have one again with his new friend, Freddy Freeman, Billy seized the opportunity. Honestly, he never treated himself to anything nice unless someone else was tagging along or if the main reason was in consideration of another. Always the money saver, that kid. "You know, being the new kid in town, being the new town in the world, it's not so different once you think about it. The Fawcett Freeze may have set us back, but we're more than eager to catch up with the rest of the world and stand tall! I promise you, you'll do just fine around here, you just need some time to adjust and breathe the air, and you're free to take all the time you need, we've got plenty of that here. So, even if you stumble or fumble some steps, I've got your back!" Billy shined a bright smile on Freddy, who seemed at a loss for a brief moment.

Before Billy could be concerned about the silence, however, Freddy reached a hand out to the boy. Freddy had his doubts and worries about Fawcett, and his place in this town, but after hearing Billy speak so easily to him without any problem, he felt a little stronger.

Freddy felt...calmer.

"Well, if you say so, Billy," Freddy sighed out, grinning. "I'll take your word that Fawcett rocks and I'll take a chance on being here. I can tell already that you're gonna be a great friend!" The two kids shook hands, feeling a strong bond forming between them. Maybe they'd be good friends for a long time. "But, I doubt I'm ever going to stumble or fumble like you said. I've got the best pair of running legs a baseball field has ever seen!"

"Let's put that to the test then, Freeman! Finish your shake in a quick second and I'll take you over to the local baseball field here. The one over by Sherman Street is great for games!"

"Don't gotta tell me twice, Batson!" Freddy shouted excitedly in response. The change in mood seemed to do him some good.

The two boys then chugged their milkshakes like a couple of starving raccoons, sprinting out the door as soon as Billy paid their bill.

Had the boys left a few seconds later, they would have heard the breaking news alert on the radio, alerting the public to Dr. Sivana's recent escape.

@wolfsbanesparks (Merry Christmas! Hope you like this WIP!)

[emersonfreepress]

I adore your writing and have just seen you mention that you have other big WIPs so would you mind sharing the links? I really would love to read them.

Oh, they don't have demos or blogs! They're just planned for the future, so I'm always working on them in one way or another (aka: worldbuilding). Psh, I wish I had other stuff to share 😅 The only other writing I have up on the internet is my gay basketball anime fanfic from almost a decade ago lmao

My next project is a celebrity/influencer lifestyle one, again focused on self-discovery, social manipulation, and character development. The ROs are tied to the 7 cardinal sins in that 🥰 There's a Pinterest! And some playlists on Spotify, someone send an ask if you want em

The one after that is about working class poverty, alternate timelines, and a creepy imaginary friend, taking place in my hometown and the DC area. Very much looking forward to finally shifting away from writing luxury and shit lol

And the only one I have planned after that for now is this weird, contemporary fantasy(?) one where the world learns that demons are real and you learn that you're a demon. You get teleported to Hell for your own safety and have to start life all over. The aesthetic I'm giving Hell and its denizens makes me deeply happy.

pc game override - wip

Because I won't be able to work on this for a while I'm uploading what I've done so far. Any recommendations of what games I should add are welcome^^

Stardew Valley > My Sims Go! Animal Crossing > Incredible Sports

Internet Games (Barbie, MyScene, Sue Games, etc.) > Sims Forever

This is a wip so it still needs polishing. In the future I will add more games and anything that needs fixing, for example the animations so that sims aren't moving so much while playing.

Since my mod replaces pc games, you can't use another override mod that does the same since they conflict.

If there are any issues imk^^

umbra boulevard | sims 4 build (wip)

welcome to umbra boulevard of forgotten hollow—a realm of charm shrouded in mystery. sip coffee at the local café, explore hemlock's books and antiques, or grab a bite to eat at winslow's. But tread carefully; whispers of locals vanishing into the night have cast a shadow over this once-bustling spot. as darkness descends, the dive bar, fledermaus bend buzzes with nervous laughter, while the abandoned hotel harbors forgotten tales. every corner holds a secret, and trust is a fleeting shadow.

guys i'm finally building some more. got some good inspo recently from @folkbreeze and their forgotten hollow builds as well as salem's lot (2024) that i just watched and wednesday (netflix). i'm genuinely excited for the new gp and the romanian inspired build mode. wednesday was actually filmed in romania. essentially, looking to build a small new england-esque town. my goal is to share this build as part of simblreen. i've actually never shared a treated before so wanted to change that. see older version below. also very minimal cc is used. stay tuned!

also do you like cars parked front or side of the street?

-d.
