How to use DXVK with The Sims 3

Have you seen this post about using DXVK by Criisolate? But felt intimidated by the sheer mass of facts and information?

@desiree-uk and I compiled a guide and the configuration file to make your life easier. It focuses on players not using the EA App, but it might work for those just the same. It’s definitely worth a try.

Adding this to your game installation will result in a better RAM usage. So your game is less likely to give you Error 12 or crash due to RAM issues. It does NOT give a huge performance boost, but more stability and allows for higher graphics settings in game.

The full guide behind the cut. Let me know if you also would like it as PDF.

Happy simming!

Disclaimer and Credits

Desiree and I are no tech experts and just wrote down how we did this. Our ability to help if you run into trouble is limited. So use at your own risk and back up your files!

We both are on Windows 10 and start the game via TS3W.exe, not the EA App. So your experience may differ.

This guide is based on our own experiments and of course criisolate’s post on tumblr: https://www.tumblr.com/criisolate/749374223346286592/ill-explain-what-i-did-below-before-making-any

This guide is brought to you by Desiree-UK and Norn.

Compatibility

Note: This will conflict with other programs that “inject” functionality into your game so they may stop working. Notably

Reshade

GShade

Nvidia Experience/Nvidia Inspector/Nvidia Shaders

RivaTuner Statistics Server

It does work seamlessly with LazyDuchess’ Smooth Patch.

LazyDuchess’ Launcher: unknown

Alder Lake patch: does conflict. One user got it working by starting the game by launching TS3.exe (also with admin rights) instead of TS3W.exe. This seemed to create the cache file for DXVK. After that, the game could be started from TS3W.exe again. That might not work for everyone though.

A word on FPS and V-Sync

With such an old game it’s crucial to cap framerate (FPS). This is done in the DXVK.conf file. Same with V-Sync.

You need

a text editor (easiest to use is Windows Notepad)

to download DXVK, version 2.3.1 from here: https://github.com/doitsujin/DXVK/releases/tag/v2.3.1 Extract the archive, you are going to need the file d3d9.dll from the x32 folder

the configuration file DXVK.conf from here: https://github.com/doitsujin/DXVK/blob/master/DXVK.conf. Optional: download the edited version with the required changes here.

administrator rights on your PC

to know your game’s installation path (bin folder) and where to find the user folder

a tiny bit of patience :)

First Step: Backup

Backup your original Bin folder in your Sims 3 installation path! The DXVK file may overwrite some files! The path should be something like this (for retail): \Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin (This is the folder where also GraphicsRule.sgr and the TS3W.exe and TS3.exe are located.)

Backup your options.ini in your game’s user folder! Making the game use the DXVK file will count as a change in GPU driver, so the options.ini will reset once you start your game after installation. The path should be something like this: \Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 (This is the folder where your Mods folder is located).

Preparations

Make sure you run the game as administrator. You can check that by right-clicking on the icon that starts your game. Go to Properties > Advanced and check the box “Run as administrator”. Note: This will result in a prompt each time you start your game, if you want to allow this application to make modifications to your system. Click “Yes” and the game will load.

2. Make sure you have the DEP settings from Windows applied to your game.

Open the Windows Control Panel.

Click System and Security > System > Advanced System Settings.

On the Advanced tab, next to the Performance heading, click Settings.

Click the Data Execution Prevention tab.

Select 'Turn on DEP for all programs and services except these”:

Click the Add button, a window to the file explorer opens. Navigate to your Sims 3 installation folder (the bin folder once again) and add TS3W.exe and TS3.exe.

Click OK. Then you can close all those dialog windows again.

Setting up the DXVK.conf file

Open the file with a text editor and delete everything in it. Then add these values:

d3d9.textureMemory = 1

d3d9.presentInterval = 1

d3d9.maxFrameRate = 60

d3d9.presentInterval enables V-Sync,d3d9.maxFrameRate sets the FrameRate. You can edit those values, but never change the first line (d3d9.textureMemory)!

The original DXVK.conf contains many more options in case you would like to add more settings.

A. no Reshade/GShade

Setting up DXVK

Copy the two files d3d9.dll and DXVK.conf into the Bin folder in your Sims 3 installation path. This is the folder where also GraphicsRule.sgr and the TS3W.exe and TS3.exe are located. If you are prompted to overwrite files, please choose yes (you DID backup your folder, right?)

And that’s basically all that is required to install.

Start your game now and let it run for a short while. Click around, open Buy mode or CAS, move the camera.

Now quit without saving. Once the game is closed fully, open your bin folder again and double check if a file “TS3W.DXVK-cache” was generated. If so – congrats! All done!

Things to note

Heads up, the game options will reset! So it will give you a “vanilla” start screen and options.

Don’t worry if the game seems to be frozen during loading. It may take a few minutes longer to load but it will load eventually.

The TS3W.DXVK-cache file is the actual cache DXVK is using. So don’t delete this! Just ignore it and leave it alone. When someone tells to clear cache files – this is not one of them!

Update Options.ini

Go to your user folder and open the options.ini file with a text editor like Notepad.

Find the line “lastdevice = “. It will have several values, separated by semicolons. Copy the last one, after the last semicolon, the digits only. Close the file.

Now go to your backup version of the Options.ini file, open it and find that line “lastdevice” again. Replace the last value with the one you just copied. Make sure to only replace those digits!

Save and close the file.

Copy this version of the file into your user folder, replacing the one that is there.

Things to note:

If your GPU driver is updated, you might have to do these steps again as it might reset your device ID again. Though it seems that the DXVK ID overrides the GPU ID, so it might not happen.

How do I know it’s working?

Open the task manager and look at RAM usage. Remember the game can only use 4 GB of RAM at maximum and starts crashing when usage goes up to somewhere between 3.2 – 3.8 GB (it’s a bit different for everybody).

So if you see values like 2.1456 for RAM usage in a large world and an ongoing save, it’s working. Generally the lower the value, the better for stability.

Also, DXVK will have generated its cache file called TS3W.DXVK-cache in the bin folder. The file size will grow with time as DXVK is adding stuff to it, e.g. from different worlds or savegames. Initially it might be something like 46 KB or 58 KB, so it’s really small.

Optional: changing MemCacheBudgetValue

MemCacheBudgetValue determines the size of the game's VRAM Cache. You can edit those values but the difference might not be noticeable in game. It also depends on your computer’s hardware how much you can allow here.

The two lines of seti MemCacheBudgetValue correspond to the high RAM level and low RAM level situations. Therefore, theoretically, the first line MemCacheBudgetValue should be set to a larger value, while the second line should be set to a value less than or equal to the first line.

The original values represent 200MB (209715200) and 160MB (167772160) respectively. They are calculated as 200x1024x1024=209175200 and 160x1024x1024=167772160.

Back up your GraphicsRules.sgr file! If you make a mistake here, your game won’t work anymore.

Go to your bin folder and open your GraphicsRules.sgr with a text editor.

Search and find two lines that set the variables for MemCacheBudgetValue.

Modify these two values to larger numbers. Make sure the value in the first line is higher or equals the value in the second line. Examples for values: 1073741824, which means 1GB 2147483648 which means 2 GB. -1 (minus 1) means no limit (but is highly experimental, use at own risk)

Save and close the file. It might prompt you to save the file to a different place and not allow you to save in the Bin folder. Just save it someplace else in this case and copy/paste it to the Bin folder afterwards. If asked to overwrite the existing file, click yes.

Now start your game and see if it makes a difference in smoothness or texture loading. Make sure to check RAM and VRAM usage to see how it works.

You might need to change the values back and forth to find the “sweet spot” for your game. Mine seems to work best with setting the first value to 2147483648 and the second to 1073741824.

Uninstallation

Delete these files from your bin folder (installation path):

d3d9.dll

DXVK.conf

TS3W.DXVK-cache

And if you have it, also TS3W_d3d9.log

if you changed the values in your GraphicsRule.sgr file, too, don’t forget to change them back or to replace the file with your backed up version.

delete the bin folder and add it from your backup again.

B. with Reshade/GShade

Follow the steps from part A. no Reshade/Gshade to set up DXVK.

If you are already using Reshade (RS) or GShade (GS), you will be prompted to overwrite files, so choose YES. RS and GS may stop working, so you will need to reinstall them.

Whatever version you are using, the interface shows similar options of which API you can choose from (these screenshots are from the latest versions of RS and GS).

Please note:

Each time you install and uninstall DXVK, switching the game between Vulkan and d3d9, is essentially changing the graphics card ID again, which results in the settings in your options.ini file being repeatedly reset.

ReShade interface

Choose – Vulcan

Click next and choose your preferred shaders.

Hopefully this install method works and it won't install its own d3d9.dll file.

If it doesn't work, then choose DirectX9 in RS, but you must make sure to replace the d3d9.dll file with DXVK's d3d9.dll (the one from its 32bit folder, checking its size is 3.86mb.)

GShade interface

Choose –

Executable Architecture: 32bit

Graphics API: DXVK

Hooking: Normal Mode

GShade is very problematic, it won't work straight out of the box and the overlay doesn't show up, which defeats the purpose of using it if you can't add or edit the shaders you want to use.

Check the game's bin folder, making sure the d3d9.dll is still there and its size is 3.86mb - that is DXVK's dll file.

If installing using the DXVK method doesn't work, you can choose the DirectX method, but there is no guarantee it works either.

The game will not run with these files in the folder:

d3d10core.dll

d3d11.dll

dxgi.dll

If you delete them, the game will start but you can't access GShade! It might be better to use ReShade.

Some Vulcan and DirectX information, if you’re interested:

Vulcan is for rather high end graphic cards but is backward compatible with some older cards. Try this method with ReShade or GShade first.

DirectX is more stable and works best with older cards and systems. Try this method if Vulcan doesn't work with ReShade/GShade in your game – remember to replace the d3d9.dll with DXVK's d3d9.dll.

For more information on the difference between Vulcan and DirectX, see this article:

Loooong Saving after using Regul Save Cleaner? Try Kuree's Save Cleaner 1.1

For any fellow Sims 3 oldheads, you may remember that the known save cleaner before Regul's tool was by Kuree.

While Regul's tool is effective and easy to use, I personally find it makes my first save after cleaning take aaaaages to the point where sometimes I just give up and have to force close the game. I've heard others have this issue so I thought I would re-remind everyone of this other tool, which I find to be almost as effective at cleaning as Regul's and not have the super long save issue.

It is called Kuree's Save Cleaner 1.1 and I have made a tutorial for you after the cut!

Part One - Downloading

What you'll find by Googling it is the link here to version 2.2 . I advise against this one. Not only did it stop working for me when the game updated to Patch 1.69 all those years ago, but others have reported issues too with it cleaning too much, such as paintings. I have no idea if it works with Macs and I have no idea if Steam users on 1.67 can use 2.2 since I don't use it.

Instead, I use version 1.1, which has been re-uploaded here by the queen of preserving sims content, Sweetdevil.

Part Two - Using It

As I mentioned, Regul's is very user friendly. This one is less so.

Unzip/unrar the Save Cleaner 1.1 file you downloaded from one of Sweetdevil's links.

Back up your save! Copy your save folder. It will be whatever you called it and located in My Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3 > Saves > Your Save Folder Name. Paste it somewhere safe.

Open Save Cleaner 1.1 folder, then double click Save_Clean.exe and press "Choose Save"

Navigate in Windows Explorer to My Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3 > Saves and choose the save you want to clean

It will only let you choose a file that has your "world name.nhd" so choose that one.

Then press "Start Cleaning", it will remind you again to do a backup, press yes to continue and then it will do its thing.

Done! You can check the save folder again if you want to see how much it cleaned since it won't give you the satisfying "this much cleaned!" like Regul's does but I find it more satisfying when my subsequent save actually finishes, personally.

Part Three - Cleaning Comparison

Here are the comparisons of how much each save cleaner cleans up the same save file:

Kuree Before:

Kuree After:

Regul Save Clean results:

As you can see, Regul does clean a bit more. But the substanial amount of cleaning is performed by both programmes, and I just find Kuree's to not cause the very long saves that Regul's does. Your mileage may vary, as always.

Whichever Save Cleaner you choose, it's a great practice to use one periodically. I typically use it when I notice my save games getting above 60mb but that's just me. It can really help your game load faster and remove some of the junk.

Jake checks to make sure your seatbelt is secure by gently tugging on the strap, acquiescing when it stays firmly in its latch.

the gasp i gusped when i read that ??? could you perhaps use that as a prompt for hotch please 😭🩶 like you’re ALWAYS his passenger princess so whenever you’re riding together he always checks your seatbelt 🥺🤭

Aaron is not one to let anything get in the way of his work. He's also not one to drive without checking your seatbelt latch, though, so when he floors it, going from zero to sixty in the van after a wayward unsub, one of his hands comes off of the wheel to shoot for your waist, feeling blindly, but expertly, for your seatbelt.

"Hotch, drive!" Derek urges from the backseat, where he knows he sits when Hotch is driving. Aaron never makes you take the backseat, so you'd each filed into your places obediently upon the news that the unsub was near.

"I am driving, Morgan," Aaron snaps, voice fraught with tension as he tears down the street, sirens blaring. His fingers feel your latch, wrist jerking as he yanks on it. He only withdraws when he's sure it's locked in place, and you grip the door for stability as he turns left hard.

"He's down on 13th," You read a message from Reid, who often occupies the passengers' seat in his own SUV during chases, "We're on 7th, so keep going the way you're going now."

You barely make it two more blocks before the unsub's car screeches to a stop in the middle of an intersection you're blowing through. Evidently, he'd changed courses, and charging was the only option in his adrenaline-mottled brain. Aaron manages to slam on the breaks enough to stop most of your forward momentum, and he throws that same large hand out to cover your chest so that he can hold you back from jerking forwards at the sudden stop.

Morgan isn't lucky enough to have a protector, but he'd been pushing his palms against the back of your seat, so he doesn't collide with you. In a split second he's tearing the door open and racing after the unsub - now on foot - and a squad of police cars pull in as backup, blocking off the unsub's path.

He's cornered.

It gives you and Aaron time to breathe, not enough oxygen in the world to rectify what had been stolen from you during the near-crash. Your eyes are blown wide and your chest is heaving, and Aaron's head turns towards you to gauge your wellbeing.

"Are you okay?" He pants, brows furrowed in concern as he watches you collect yourself. You nod, disjointedly so, watching as Morgan leads the unsub away in handcuffs towards a police car.

"Thanks for catching me," You pant, "Uh- I might have- I think I'd have hit the dashboard if you didn't."

Aaron winces at the image, but tugs again at your seatbelt, "It would have caught you. But I wanted it to be me instead."

"Me too," You confess, gripping his hand in your shaky one, "Aaron, we- can we drive slow on the way back?"

"Yes," He lets out a weak exhale, something a little more tired than a smile crossing his face as he leans over to kiss your cheek. You're sure he'd rather kiss your lips, but you don't have the energy to turn your head yet, and he knows that. Instead, his lips press sweetly to the corner of your mouth that he can reach, merged with your cheek, and he vows, "We'll drive extra slow, honey, I promise."

Give Me Another Chance

Summary: The five times Y/n asks Wanda to give her another chance and the one time Wanda says yes.

Warnings: Angst, No Happy Ending, Dying, No Part Two?

A/n: Was heavily inspired to write this angst after reading Marry Me by @just-aake Theirs had a happy ending to it so I highly suggest reading their lovely work.

Word Count: 1.6k

Masterlist

“Give me another chance, Wanda,” Y/n pleaded as the two walked through the compound late for their meeting. It was 8:30 am. The group was instructed to arrive for the mission briefing at 8:15 am. Wanda barely had time to brush her teeth before she ran out of her room and immediately bumped into the last person she wanted to speak to, her ex.

“Shut it, Y/n.” Y/n sighed as she kept her mouth shut. The headache coming from drinking too much poured into her head like a tsunami. “I blame you if we get the short end of this mission.” Before Y/n could respond, the two finally arrived at the conference room.

“You’re late.” Steve deadpanned. “We-”

“No excuses Y/n, you and Wanda are on backup duty. Stay in the quinjet until asked.” Wanda groveled silently as she was handed the mission file by Natasha. Y/n stood behind Bucky and peered over his notes.

“This was going to be a long day,” Y/n thought.

“Give me another chance, Wanda,” Y/n begged through the phone. She was walking through the bustling streets of downtown New York to find Wanda. The girl had mysteriously gone out for the night and decided to tell no one about her location. This was nothing new to the team, even Natasha knew it was something that Wanda did to feel better about herself after their breakup.

But tonight felt different to Y/n. It was already past midnight and Wanda hadn’t come back home. Y/n called again only for the phone to go straight to voicemail for the 10th time tonight. “Watch where you’re going asshole!”

“Sorry,” Y/n mouthed as she walked away. Realistically, Y/n knew that Wanda could handle herself even if she was impaired, her magic subconsciously protected her in situations like this. But the worry that pitted her stomach told her otherwise.

“Where could you be?” Y/n thought out loud. Looking around the surrounding buildings, Y/n’s eyes settled on the Chrysler building. Like a light bulb, a switch flipped in her head. Running to the nearest empty alleyway, Y/n called for her suit and flew to the top of the building.

In all her glory there was Wanda lying on the edge of the Chrysler building. Her cheeks were flushed as she held the near empty bottle on her stomach. The remainder of the six-pack lay waste on the floor. Wanda didn’t know how much time had passed since she started drinking. The near numbness in her lips indicated that it had been a while.

Y/n landed with a soft thud, not wanting to scare Wanda off. She checked her watch and it was already 2:00 am, a new record for Wanda. Leaving her suit behind, Y/n walked slowly to Wanda. Once she was within arm's reach, Y/n securely held her by the waist.

“What are you doing here?” Wanda didn’t have to turn her head to know who it was. The feeling of sensing Y/n was something she used to enjoy. Now it was just a constant reminder of their failed relationship.

“I’m here to take you home. It’s late Wanda.” Wanda sighed as she let Y/n gently grab the bottle from her hand. “Why can’t you just leave me alone?”

“You’re drunk Wanda.”

“And you’re the asshole that left me.” Y/n ignored the insult thrown her way and picked Wanda up bridal style. “You’re gonna get hypothermia if you stay out here.” Y/n looked down at Wanda when she didn’t respond back. The brunette was already deep asleep as she nuzzled her head into Y/n’s chest.

When Wanda woke up the next day, she refused to ask who took her home. Not when her thoughts already lingered about Y/n.

“Give me another chance, Wanda,” Y/n whispered as she held Wanda’s hand. The brunette was dressed in an all-black skin-tight dress with high heels. She even put make-up on to feel better for the occasion.

“You don’t deserve me.” Wanda walked away from Y/n and to the open elevator. Their eyes met again as the doors closed. Once she was fully out of sight, Wanda let a tear fall. “Why must you make it so hard for me to move on?”

“Give me another chance-”

“Are you serious right now?” Wanda was in disbelief. “You. Fucked. Up.” She poked at Y/n’s chest. “Not me. And now you want me to seriously give you another chance?

“I understand that I fucked up-”

“No! You don’t! You broke up with me and left me to sort things out by myself. And cowardly enough, you went on a mission just to avoid talking to me.”

“Let me explain-”

“Explain? What is there to explain? I’ve begged and begged so many times before for you to tell me the truth. Each time you would shut me out and disappear. You never had the decency to tell me anything. But now when it’s convenient for you, I suddenly am the bad guy for not hearing you out. “

Wanda shoved Y/n out of her room. “All you did was make me wonder why I ever deserved that type of treatment when all I ever did was love you.”

“I’m sorry I keep messing things up,” Y/n groaned. The bruises on her chest made it hard to breathe or maybe it was the blood she could taste in her mouth. Regardless, everything hurts. “I wasn’t really thinking when I broke up with you back then.”

Wanda ignored the burning feeling in her chest as she continued to rip apart the indestructible chair Y/n was cuffed to. “Are you serious right now? Y/n please use your fucking smart brain and help me get you out.”

Wanda concentrated back on her powers to try and rip apart one of the steel cuffs. When the cuff didn’t give, Wanda stopped in frustration. “Why isn’t this working?”

“‘Cause they knew you would be the one to get me.” Wanda furrowed her brows, not understanding who “they” was. “What are you talking about?”

A loud pitch echoed through the chambers as the intercom turned on. “Countdown commences. Ten minutes till detonation.” The large screen behind Wanda flickered as the countdown was displayed in bright red.

“Tony! I need you to locate the bomb. Y/n is stuck in this chair and I can’t get her out of it.” Wanda looked around the room once more but the lack of controls and buttons made it feel useless.

Wanda hurried back to Y/n at the sound of her coughing up more blood. “What did they do to you dekta?” Y/n tried her best to grin, not wanting to show Wanda how much pain she was in.

“You’ve done worse to me in training,” Y/n joked but none of it sat right with Wanda’s conscience. Using her shirt, Wanda wiped part of the blood that came out. She used her free hand to locate the source of the bleeding.

“Wanda,” her green eyes focused on the brown eyes she loved. “I think I’m dying.”

“Shh shh - don’t talk like that dekta.” Wanda located a small tear inside Y/n’s organs and used her magic to pause the bleeding. “We’re gonna get you out of here.”

“I’m sorry for all the times I’ve failed you.”

“What-”

“And I’m sorry for leaving you.”

“Now is not the time-”

“We’re out of time my love.” Y/n glanced to the screen in front of them. Only five minutes left before it detonated.

“Any updates Tony?! We have five minutes left!” Wanda yelled.

“I’m trying my best here. We’re swarmed!”

“Wanda - I need you to listen-”

“No!” Wanda declared. She looked at Y/n with a deadly stare. “Stop acting like that - like this is our last chance.” Wanda refused to believe that the world would be cruel to let the love of her life slip past her. Not when they haven’t sorted everything out. Not when things are still bad.

“I love you,” Y/n whispered with a tired smile. Wanda could feel Y/n’s energy draining by the second. The longer she went without medical attention, the slimmer her chances of survival grew. She gripped on Y/n’s shirt, trying her best to keep her cries at bay.

“Don’t-” Wanda sobbed as tears fell down her face. “This isn’t how I wanted you to confess. I deserve a confession where dying isn’t involved.”

“One minute remaining,” the announcement said. Y/n’s eyes started to droop. Her consciousness was slipping by the second. Wanda cupped Y/n’s cheek and lightly tapped her face.

“Wake up dekta.” Y/n slowly opened her eyes. “Ask me again.”

“What?”

“Tell me you want me back.” Wanda pressed her forehead against Y/n’s. “Tell me to give you another chance and I will. I’ll give you all the chances in the world so just ask me.”

“Wanda…will you give me another chance my love?”

0:00

The world slowed down as the bomb deep under the building blew up. Wanda could feel the blast reaching to them as she created a magic barrier that surrounded her and Y/n. And as it continued to explode around them, Wanda leaned in and kissed Y/n hoping that the last thing the dying girl felt was her love.

Ninjago Headcanons from an elder fan

Part 1

There is a group chat, and it pops off all hours of the day. And often the conversation is being texted in all caps, or voice messages of the ninja yelling at each other.

Skylor was added to it but left because there were too many notifications while she was working.

Zane will take selfies in the middle of the battle and send it to the group chat

Nya begs him to stop doing it but Zane thinks it's hilarious

Kai is a material girl; he does his skincare, haircare, and body care and will often pester Nya about where she goes to fix herself up for dates.

Ninjas who ride cycles also wear helmets, which increases their attractiveness by 200%.

Lloyd has taken on the man bun. Yes, it does work out for him.

Jay is severely underrated. He's strong, average-sized, and has freckles all over. This dude is a ninja and commonly climbs high places to practice his element. He's got to have that nice upper body strength.

Cole's the tallest, heaviest, and strongest. He's pure muscle, but he's also a gentle giant when he's not in battle. Even sparring, he'll go easy in an effort to not hurt his friends.

He will, however, pick Jay up and just carry him out of the room if he gets too aggravating.

Nya will still tinker with mech, and often spends time with Pixal doing so. They're lesbians, and Nya taught Pixal how to be more self-assured and independent.

Pixal's life revolved around serving other people, and she had to be taught how to serve herself.

Zane and Pixal are similar to how the D:BH androids function. They can download any file, and research anything, but once it comes to human experiences and emotions, they have to take their time and learns from being hands-on.

That's why it took so long for Zane to catch on to simple emotions and phrases, and why he still has trouble even if he's made improvements.

Zane and Nya are close friends, they were the oddballs before Lloyd showed up.

Nya and Lloyd are also really close because of this, and while as a child he loved to annoy her, he actually really looked up to her.

Babysit isn't the proper wording, but Nya definitely looked after Lloyd and taught him the basic functions of how to take care of himself.

Kai as well, the Smith's were the closest thing to a pair of siblings Lloyd could've had growing up, and their bond still stays strong.

Lloyd still clings onto remnants of his short childhood. He will do things to heal his inner child.

There's articles and social media posts catching him swinging on a swingset with Cole, or getting icecream with Kai. He'll even go to a comic-con or two...or ten.

While the ninja aren't necessarily paid for their efforts, the city will give them a check every so often whenever Ninjago is saved by a big baddie.

However, if there are casualties or if the city is destroyed (Ex. The Great Devourer), that money will go back into repairing the city.

But, Nya keeps the finances in check, and knows how to haggle for anything the team may need (she threatens the salespeople).

But even with the extra money, some will seek a second responsibility. Pixal will do hybrid part-time jobs, and Jay will pick up a delivery contract for example. Something to take a break from daily training and punching bad guys.

They still have their golden weapon vehicles because I said so, and I like people on motorcycles. They also have spare backups that Nya has built from scratch. She almost strangled Jay for crashing that one.

And yes, Nya has a motorcycle, too.

But all in all, they've found each other as family, and it's ride or die with all of them. Especially Zane.

Ride or Die - Mafia! Nakamoto Yuta x Gang! Fem Reader

A/N: yes, I know Shotaro and Shohei is not part of NCT anymore (irl) but I can’t help but not put them in the story that is going to be mainly based in Japan with Yuta :’)

Also there will be parts taken from the High and Low series so if you’ve not watched it, I highly recommend watching it!

Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. I do not know the NCT members personally nor do I own you (y/n). (H/C) is hair colour and (S/C) is skin colour. I also do not own any of the images used in this story. All rights go to their respective owners.

Warnings: mentions of drugs, drug usage, gang, mafia, beating up, blood

Tag: @mymoodwriting

“You wanted to see me, Taeyong?” Yuta asked, walking into Taeyong’s office and noticing that Shotaro and Shohei were in Taeyong’s office, sitting across from him

“Oh? Yuta-san” Shotaro mentioned, was about to stand and let the older Japanese member sit but Yuta signalled him to sit back down. “I’m alright, Shotaro. What is it Taeyong?” Yuta asked

Taeyong then pushed a tablet across the table and clicked a button which showed a holographic screen with multiple information and maps. “There has been news about a small Japanese gang helping out with getting drug deals and selling them to the gang in Korea. You know, the one that has been drugging young girls and trying to sell them off?”

Yuta nodded in understanding, he scrolled through the holographic screen to look at all the information Taeyong was telling him. “So you need us to go check it out and take care of them?”

Taeyong nodded. “While we might’ve managed to detain the gang that was selling actual human beings, the gang who sold drugs also played a role in this; even if it was minor. Johnny, Jaehyun, Haechan and Jungwoo managed to get the gang to talk and locate their drug dealers somewhere in Osaka. Do you need some more backups?”

Yuta thought about it for a moment before replying. “Aside from Shotaro and Shohei, I’ll ask Ten, Xiaojun, and perhaps Johnny and Jaehyun”

“Alright. I’ll give them all a heads-up. I’ve also prepared the jet and everything you’ll need when you land” Taeyong mentioned as Yuta thanked him. “I promise I’ll find the gang and bring them down”

“I know you will, Yuta. Just make sure you don’t kill them. Bring them all back. No matter what happens or who you face, don’t let your emotions get the best of you” Taeyong reminded which confused Yuta for a moment but he brushed it off thinking that it’s probably been a while since he went back to Japan for a mission

Japan - 10:25 pm

“Yuta-san? We’ve arrived in Japan” Shohei mentioned as Yuta was looking through all the files that Jungwoo sent him regarding the drug dealers

Yuta looked up from his tab and looked outside to see that they were indeed landing in Tokyo, Japan. “Has our car arrived?”

Shohei nodded as Shotaro replied. “Yup, Ten, Xiaojun, and Jaehyun-hyung will be joining us tomorrow. Johnny-hyung can’t make it because…”

“I know, he got a getaway plan with his girl. I’m not surprised. He’s been planning for almost a month ever since the incident. He deserves a break” Yuta sighed as he got up with both Shohei and Shotaro following behind him as they made their way to the arranged car

In the car, Yuta continued to look through the files along with Shotaro and Shohei, narrowing down some of the possible locations where this gang were setting up their hideout and doing their deals.

“They most probably have their hideout elsewhere from where they do all the drug selling” Shohei mentioned, as Yuta ushered him to continue. “Our recruits in Japan found out that the true drug dealers don’t show their faces. They just sell them to some college and high school students and then recruit them to sell them to others. So the actual mastermind behind these drug dealings are hidden elsewhere”

“Have our recruits captured any of those kids who were selling the drugs?” Yuta asked and Shohei nodded. “Yeah, there are some. The younger recruits have them in our Japan hideout”

Yuta nodded as the car ride continued to the NCT’s mansion in Japan. Unlike Korea, NCT has its own house in Japan, which is built in the secluded and most private parts of Tokyo. The ride was quiet as Yuta noticed how both Shohei and Shotaro, his two kohais (juniors) were knocked out on the plush seat of the car.

It was during the quiet car ride that for once Yuta’s mind was elsewhere. The oldest and first Japanese member of the group used to not live a privileged life like some of the other members. He used to have to work since he was a teenager just to help his mother out for him and his sisters. He would do anything to help his mother and sisters, to give them a better life. So much that Yuta fell into the darker side of the world.

Backstory

Unlike most teenagers, Yuta’s family didn’t grow up in a good living area. They weren’t necessarily poor but they were still not well off enough to be able to afford a house unlike now where Yuta would always provide for his mom and sisters. His father left when his younger sister was just starting out of primary school and somehow never came back. Yuta being the only man left in the family started to find ways to make additional money for this family.

It started out easy by giving a bit of tutoring to younger classmates. By the age of 15, Yuta started to work part-time at the supermarket and convenience store. But when Yuta saw his mom getting hurt by some men because she asked for a loan, Yuta made it his goal to do whatever he can to earn money and that was when he went down the dark path.

By high school, Yuta saw some of his seniors selling off some kind of “medicine” until he realised it wasn’t actually “medicine”. However, when one of his seniors mentioned the hefty money they got just by selling this, Yuta didn’t think twice.

All he thought was getting the money for his family and as long as he’s not using these medicines himself then all should be well, right? Long story short, Yuta met a girl who wanted one of the pills he was selling. At first, he didn’t even know that it was a girl who wanted it until the day he met her.

In the beginning, Yuta was more so furious that the girl wanted the pill because his entire family was women and he would never want any girl or woman to take these kinds of pills. Yuta would much rather get in trouble rather than hurt any girl. Instead, the girl reasoned with him that she wanted the pills to stop her own father for hurting her or her younger brother.

Since then, Yuta got to know the girl who became his first and only crush. He didn’t give the pills to the girl but he did help her in reporting her dad’s aggressive behaviour and just when he thought that the problem was solved, the girl decided to join Yuta in selling the pills to earn money for herself.

Though Yuta refused the girl’s offer, he soon found out that she had already joined the gang to sell the pills. The two were then named Osaka’s Bonnie and Clyde as the two kept on this act of theirs until right when Yuta was just about to go into college, the government security found out about the drug-selling gang, mainly those who did direct transactions with the consumers.

It was the day that Yuta could hardly forget. The two of them were just getting back home from a walk. They weren’t even selling the pills that night, but the government security found them and were about to arrest both of them. Yuta, wanting her to have a clean background for a better future took all the blame. All the pills they both sold, every single person who took the pill, whoever ended up in rehab, Yuta took all the blame so she could go and live freely.

Since then, Yuta has yet to see her again. Not long after Yuta was captured, Taeyong came into his cell one night and offered him a way to redeem himself; to be part of NCT. Ever since that night, Yuta changed. He worked for Taeyong and NCT. He was there when the small NCT group was formed until today where they had many members of NCT and units along with training a group of recruits.

However, throughout his time in NCT, Yuta kept on trying to find her; even going as far as to search around Osaka whenever he was in Japan for NCT business. But no luck. Yet Yuta always wondered if she was doing alright. If she finally went to university. If she was able to do the things she couldn’t do.

End of backstory

Yuta wandered on until the driver announced that they’d arrived at NCT’s Japan mansion. It wasn’t as massive as the one in Korea but more than enough to house the NCT members. Yuta woke up his two kohais as the three of them got out of the car and into the mansion where some of the staff greeted the three of them.

“You two get some rest. We’ll go over what we need to do tomorrow morning. I’ll update Taeyong that we’ve arrived and if there are any other updates from him” Yuta instructed the younger members who seemed worried for his well-being

“I’m okay. I’ll rest up soon. I promise” Yuta mentioned, reassuring his younger members who nodded and went to their own respective rooms while Yuta went to his own room

Yuta then took off his coat while updating Taeyong and scrolling through the additional information that was sent to him throughout his flight.

“You should check Oya High. There had been recent reports that some of the students managed to get ahold of the pills” Taeyong mentioned

“Oya High you said?” Yuta reconfirmed with Taeyong. “Yes, Oya High. Is it too much for you?”

Gripping the phone tightly, Yuta took a deep breath before replying to Taeyong again. “No. No, it’s not a problem at all. I’ll handle it”

“Remember not to kill any of them. They might all be legal now but they’ve been doing this since they were underage” Taeyong explained and Yuta just let out a sigh

“Noted. I’ll ensure those that we found will be captured and alive when we bring them back” Yuta replied

“Get some sleep Yuta. You’re going to need it. I trust you’ll get the job done without letting your feelings get the best of you. Good night” Taeyong ended the call, leaving Yuta alone once again with his thoughts

Yuta tried to get some sleep but just like all the times whenever he was in Japan, Yuta’s mind spiralled out of control. Always wonder about her. Where she was right now. How has she been? Whether or not she is still alive. If she is, is she still in Japan? What does she look like now?

All these questions were racing across Yuta’s mind one after the other. Yuta barely got any sleep throughout the night and in the early break of dawn, he decided he would get up and have an early morning all to himself before his other members from Korea came back to help him.

In the early morning, Yuta changed into his sportswear, put on a windproof jacket and put on headphones while he went out he saw a mysterious hooded person, who approached some high school students in an alleyway. Yuta took a quiet step closer and saw that the mysterious hooded person handed a plastic bag that seemed to be filled with the very pills that NCT were looking into.

Immediately, Yuta tried to discreetly come closer to the scene, wanting to see for himself the transaction that was being made. But when he came closer, the hooded figure took the money and instantly left which made Yuta even more curious.

Yuta walked to the high school kids and took the pills in the bag while kicking the high school kids that they fell, glaring at them so they wouldn’t follow him. “You idiots should study more instead of taking these kinds of pills. Not everyone can get lucky and get out of trouble once they’ve dived into this mess. So get out of it while you still can before it really ruins your life”

Yuta didn’t even look back at the high schoolers and rushed to follow the hooded figure. He kept a decent distance to watch over their every move while still making sure that he wasn’t noticed. But when he saw the hooded figure going to a specific spot where he used to meetup with her, he couldn’t help but be intrigued.

When Yuta got closer, he saw the hooded figure take off their hood and it revealed a girl with a blunt bob (H/C), with (S/C). Yuta took a closer look and noticed the girl wearing the exact same pendant that he once gifted her…

“It can’t be…can it…” Yuta stepped closer but the girl noticed him and made a run for it

Yuta didn’t waste any time and rushed to follow the hooded girl. Many questions were running through his mind. Was it really her? Why was she still part of this world? Had he not done enough to keep her away from this? Did someone blackmail her?

With Yuta’s speed, he managed to go around the block and cornered the hooded girl. But what he didn’t expect was the hooded girl charging towards him, catching him off guard and managing to sweep him off his feet.

Yuta on the other hand, despite being caught off guard, he quickly regained composure and managed to upperhand the hooded girl. “Stop moving, you’ll only make this more difficult for yourself. I know what drugs you were selling. But that’s not what I’m going to question you about. Why do you have that necklace?”

When the hooded figure didn’t respond, Yuta turned them around and was shocked to see that it was the same girl who he met years ago. The one who joined him to sell those medicines and the one who he had tried to protect by turning himself in, letting him take all the blame and fall.

“(y/n)…is that…what are you…” Yuta tried to asked you further on what were you doing still selling those medicines but you cut him off, pulling your hand back from him about to make a run for it before Yuta quickly composed himself and held you back, this time with a bit more strength

“Tell me. Why on earth would you still do all this stuff? You were free. You could’ve done anything else but why…why would you…” Yuta was in disbelief. After everything he did to ensure you had no criminal record

“Why? You have the audacity to ask me why when I should be the one asking you that? Why the hell did you leave me alone? We were supposed to be a team! If you go then I should’ve gone with you. Yet you left me like I’m some kind of dirt. I had to take care of my brother alone. And you really think I want to keep doing this?” you look back at Yuta with cold yet sad eyes

Yuta felt hurt hearing you talk back at him like this but he also couldn’t help but feel guilty. You were right. He left you alone without teaching you many other things about how to survive.

“H-hows your brother?” Yuta tried to ask, but you weren’t ready to reply to him. Not after the amount of hardships you had to go through on your own.

You tried to pull your arm back. “I have no obligation to answer to you”

Despite your comment, Yuta knows that if he doesn’t bring you back and explain it to his members, you could be in bigger trouble. So right when you were about to leave, not expecting Yuta to follow you, he would hit your neck just enough to make you pass out.

“I’m sorry” Yuta uttered as he lifted your unconscious body

NCT Japan HQ - 2:17 pm

Though Yuta got confused eyes lingering on his figure while carrying your body, they knew better than to question him.

Yuta went to one of the guest rooms and laid you down on the bed as Shotaro came into the room.

“Senpai, the other hyungs have arrived”

Yuta didn’t reply and simply waved at Shotaro, telling him he got the message and to have Shotaro tell the others to wait for him.

Bowing at Yuta’s response, Shotaro took his leave. “We’ll be waiting for you downstairs, senpai”

As Shotaro left, Yuta turned to see you, still asleep. Gently, Yuta brought his hand to your face, brushing your hair away from your face. “Had I known what would happen now back then, I would’ve put more effort in not letting you come with me”

Yuta softly took your hand and kissed the knuckles. “I promise I’ll make it up to you for the time we spent apart”

After placing your hand back down, Yuta got up and went out of the room. Walking downstairs, he saw his members all sitting in the living room, talking with one another until they all saw Yuta headed towards them.

Immediately, the air felt a bit more tense up until Yuta sat in between all of them. Yuta took his time to see around who was present. Ten, Xiaojun, Jaehyun, and Jungwoo came all the way from South Korea. Shotaro and Shohei were now on each side of Yuta.

“So, what did you find Yuta?” Ten asked

“Yeah. Taeyong-hyung mentioned that you were in the midst of finding the drug dealers. The ones that sell those drugs and played an indirect role in kidnapping innocent…”

Jungwoo didn’t even finish what he was saying because Yuta glared at him, immediately silencing him.

“Yuta senpai and us have been searching and we have several leads” Shohei mentioned as he showed everyone the findings

Yuta also placed a bag with red pills on the table for Xiaojun and Jungwoo to examine and determine the kind of drug.

“In the meantime, Shotaro and I had sent out several of our Japanese recruits to dig more about this drug that Yuta-senpai brought over. We had our recruits to find more information on other drug dealers to give us a lead” Shohei added on possibly

Ten and Jaehyun updated Taeyong when Yuta looked at Shotaro, whispering to him to have a peek at the guest bedroom.

Shotaro who immediately understood the underlying meaning of Yuta’s words, excused himself and grabbed some snacks then headed to the guest bedroom.

Shotaro knocked on the door for a brief moment before going in and put the tray of snacks and water by the table. However, Shotaro was caught off-guard when the figure suddenly knocked him out cold, escaping the guest bedroom.

Hearing the commotion, the rest of the members were on guard but Yuta told them to not make a move and let him to his work.

It didn’t take long for Yuta to catch the figure and bring them to the rest of his members. “I’m not going to talk. You can’t make me!”

“Stop being difficult, (y/n). They won’t hurt you. Just tell us what you know so we can get this over with” Yuta reasoned with them

“You don’t understand. They have my brother. If I tell you about what I know, they’ll hurt him. I can’t Yuta…I can’t…he’s the only one I got left” (y/n) cried out and tried to pull her hand but instead, Yuta held her wrist tighter

What surprised everyone was that Yuta turned her around and hugged her tight. “I’m sorry. For the past several years. That the both of you had to go through all this alone. I tried to find you both, but that’s no excuse. I should’ve found you both sooner. But I’m here now. With better resources. Just tell us what happened, and we’ll take care of the rest. I promise you. I’ll find your brother and fix everything. Just please, tell us” Yuta tried his best to convince (y/n)

“Our old high school” that was all Yuta needed

Immediately, Yuta looked over at Jungwoo who got his signal and went over to his computer to track down Yuta and (y/n)’s old high school place.

“It’s in Oya high?” Jungwoo asked to confirm as (y/n) nodded

“That’s the one but I don’t think that the drugs spread amongst those students. I know the leader of the school wouldn’t allow it” Yuta mentioned. “I’ll check it out myself”

“Yuta, you can’t. That’s suicide” (y/n) replied, now holding Yuta’s wrist

“I won’t be going alone. I’ll just double-check the situation. I promise” Yuta patted (y/n)’s head

“Xiaojun, Jungwoo, Jaehyun, I trust you’ll take care of her” Yuta replied, slowly releasing (y/n)’s hold as he signalled Ten, Shotaro, and Shohei to follow him

Oya High - 2:17 am

“H-hey who is that? They don’t look like they’re from here. They look much older than any students even if they’re part-time students” some of the students at Oya High whispered amongst themselves as Yuta and his members entered the school’s gates

“Don’t mind them all. Let’s go” Yuta stated as he walked through the school with his members

Though normally the school’s students would be on high alert or pick on a fight with “intruders”, one look from Yuta and they all cowered in fear. Especially when he asked them about the part-timer leader, Murayama.

As Yuta made his way through the halls, he heard some guys talking about the drugs that can make you see things along with getting girls.

Stopping in his tracks, Yuta turned to the hidden stall and opened it, shoving the 3 men that were in the stall out and without hesitation, he beat them up for talking about drugs and using them on innocent girls.

“The fuck do you think you’re doing? Huh?! Buying drugs and using them to harm innocent girls?!” Yuta scolded, knocking the men out just in time Murayama, the school’s “leader” came to see what the commotion is

“Ya ya, what the hell is going on…Nakamoto Yuta?” Murayama looked confused seeing Yuta back in the school

“Ask the students around here on what’s going on” Yuta shoved one of the barely unconscious man to Murayama’s feet

“They’ve been using drugs and were planning to use them on innocent girls. Though you’re better than that, Murayama?” Yuta taunted and Murayama yanked the semi-unconscious student, demanding where they got the drugs from

“It, it was Kidra. They sold it to us. Told us to spread them further too” one of the students unconsciously mentioned which made Murayama shove them back to the floor while Yuta turned to his members. “We’ve got our information, let’s go”

“Oi, you show up in your fancy clothes to get information about drugs then leave? Do you even forget how to communicate?” Murayama exclaimed but Yuta kept on walking

“I’m dealing with other things but I’ll be back for our annual fight or perhaps you would like to join in and handle these drug dealers?” Yuta offered, stopping in his tracks to face Murayama who chuckled. “You’re on”

Kidra’s Base - 5:12 am

It didn’t take long for Yuta, his members, Murayama and some of the other Oya High part-time students to go through the base and trash the drug factory that was being built within the base itself.

Yuta kicked down the door that he assumes would lead him to the center of the base where the Kidra leaders were.

“So this is the famous Nakamoto Yuta of Osaka we’ve heard about” one of the leaders chuckled

“You should consider yourself lucky to be found by me. Had anyone else found out about this…” Yuta started but the group laughed

“Please, save us your speech. It’s not like you’re a saint either. You used to sell drugs too with that girl, what was that bitch’s name again” the gang laughed and Yuta didn’t hesitate to step forward and landed a hard punch across their face

“Ya you son of a…” one of the gang leader was about to exclaim when Yuta landed another hard punch on the other side of their face

“I never said I was a saint but you better fucking leave her name out of your mouth or I’ll carve your tongue out” Yuta warned but the gang just chuckled

Within seconds, the entire base turned into a battlefield. Objects were flying around, empty bottles were thrown and shattered. Blood splattered across the floor. Murayama and some of his fellow part-time students were fighting the opposing gang along with Yuta’s members while Yuta himself took on the Kanehira brothers, the mastermind behind this new drug making location.

“Getting a little tired, Nakamoto?” Hideto Kanehira snickered

“Perhaps you’re getting a bit too old for this, heh?” Yuuto Kanehira added on, the two brothers laughed at Yuta while he smirked

“Old? Sure, I’ve gotten older” Yuta chuckled, walking towards the brothers and caught them both off guard by sweeping their legs, knocking them both down

“But that doesn’t mean I’ve lost my touch. Now, where were we?” Yuta snickered back, unbuttoning his shirt as he charged in at the brothers

Yuta went on a roll, delivering punches to each brothers, kicking them, blocking them off. Even when everyone around them were done fighting, some passing out on the ground, Yuta kept going on and on until he heard her voice.

“Yuta. Stop. You’ll kill him” (y/n) softly called out to him, holding his fist to make him stop

It was only then did Yuta stop to turn and see his surroundings. Kidra’s men were all knocked out, some of Oya high part-time students were also on the ground, Yuta’s members were all still standing albeit a bit out of breath. But what he surprised him was seeing Taeyong with other members and the new Japanese recruits handling the scene.

Finally, Yuta stopped his movements and leaned onto (y/n) while walking towards Taeyong who patted his shoulder.

“Thanks for finding them and not killing them like I asked” Taeyong mentioned while Yuta chuckled, looking at his leader

“You knew she was still in this life, didn’t you?” It wasn’t a question but more of a statement Yuta made towards Taeyong who patted his shoulder

“Her brother will be joining in as part of the Japanese recruits. We also offered it to her” Taeyong mentioned, making Yuta turn to grip Taeyong’s collar. “The hell she’s joining us”

“You didn’t let me finish, Yuta. She’ll be going to university along with Haechan’s girlfriend. She won’t be part of NCT. Her brother will also go to school and join the japanese recruits but as the backend. None of them will go to the front end. I assure you that, Yuta” Taeyong pushed Yuta’s hands off of his collar

Scoffing, Yuta mumbled a thanks before being dragged by (y/n).

“Thank you. For helping me again” (y/n) mentioned, making Yuta tighten his grip around her shoulder

“It’s nothing. We were each other’s ride or die back then and I will still be your ride or die now. I wish I had taken you and your brother out as soon as I could instead of getting you both tangled up in this mess now” Yuta replied but (y/n) shook her head and kissed his cheek, making him flushed a bit

“It’s in the past now. Let’s get you patch up before we actually catch up with each other, yeah?” (y/n) offered and for the first time in a while, Yuta genuinely smiled. “Yeah, I’d like that”

A/N: hi hi, are my nct readers still following and reading my NCT fics? I apologise for being MIA from making NCT fics but I finally done it. Another installment of my NCT mafia "series" and this one features our own yakuza boi, Nakamoto Yuta.

To my dearest fellow NCTzens, thank you for still reading my NCT fics and let's see if I can get another NCT mafia fic out by the end of the year. Take care all xoxo peanutpinet

NEW!(not included in my other headcanons) Dr. Simon Glass headcanons!

Maverick (his therapy duck!) is anomalous!

He likes to keep these marimo moss balls as 'pets' in his office (and before you ask YES he does care about them and his plants and flowers!!!!!)

oh SPEAKING OF PLANTS AND FLOWERS, i think he would have lavenders, monsteras, succulents, parlor palms in his office, but incase he knows he's too busy, sometimes he gets one of his coworkers to water them for him!

a LOT of people mentioned this headcanon but I AGREE SO MUCH, but he has a HUGE sweet tooth ! he has to stop himself from taking too much of the candy from the snack bowl he has in his office Ahihihi

also this IS canon but he keeps snacks under his desk ! i made it so he has a bowl of them ON the desk but he has backup bags under his desk, so when the snacks run out from the bowl he can simply refill it!

He ALWAYS shaves his facial hair, he got it from his military days (in the military, your face MUST be clean shaven - exceptions being mustaches and religious reasons, skin conditions etc - and he cannot get off of the habit of not letting ANY facial hair show haha

When he's alone in his office, he likes to listen to stuff like Michael Jackson or Jack Stauber while tidying up his office and playing with Maverick

He strategizes what he wears so he could be like a walking huge cuddly teddy bear (he wears warm, comfy clothes ! what he wears in summer is a new story LOL)

not sure if i mentioned this in my previous headcanons BUT he teaches his patients how to do origamis as a calming method, and he has a little cup FULL of origamis HE made !

About how he types texts, I headcanon that he switches from capitalizing his sentences to NOT doing it at all, sometimes it just depends! like- he capitalizes his sentences in VERY important text/email conversations, and he doesn't when he's texting his coworkers or patients!

If he overhears ANYONE talking about wanting to have a job in the whole psychology field, he gets REALLY excited and is TOTALLY willing to help them/offer them a role!!

another somewhat canon one, BUTTTTTTTTTTT he has access to EVERY Safe, Euclid humanoid SCP file, and a big amount of Keter files! He's spoken to almost everyone, so of COURSE everyone likes him!

On some days, he does his work in the cafeteria! You may find him there in the earlier hours in the morning or lunchtime!

Another headcanon i REALLY like, BUT he LOVES light blue - light yellow things ! he gets VERY happy when his patients bring him little trinkets with that color scheme!

a little obvious, but his fashion aesthetic is Light Academia !

IF he EVER has the time, he goes to visit a local pond to feed the ducks there fruits!

In the situations where one of his coworkers/patients are having a birthday, he COMPLETELY makes sure they feel loved and important ! He gives them fun little origami trinkets and stuff !

I feel like his patients EASILY get him to watch stuff, like for example: one of his patients talks about a popular series/movie like squid game, Simon checks it out, instantly likes it AND SO ON ! (i took inspo from someone elses headcanon for this one!)

X-Files OctoberFicFest Day 30: Light Refreshments

"Hello?"

"Mulder, it's Assistant Director Skinner. Any updates?"

"No, sir." Mulder shifted a little in his seat. "Agent Scully and I are, uh, continuing the stakeout. We've been observing the building for the past few hours. It appears to be unoccupied."

"Interesting," Skinner said. "We have intel about that building specifically."

"They could be in the basement, sir," Mulder suggested. He lifted two fingers to his throat and loosened his tie slightly. "We might not see the lights from here."

"That's a good point," Skinner mused. "Maybe I should send additional agents to check in with you and Scully."

"Ah," Mulder said, loosening his tie a little more. "I think we've got it covered for now."

"You don't want backup?"

"No, no. We're... fine. We have eyes on the only known exit with basement access," Mulder said. He unbuttoned the collar of his shirt, and then undid one more button. "According to the plans. Mm. I think it's... fine."

"Let me know if the situation changes," Skinner said, sounding dubious. "There're only a couple more hours on your shift."

"Yes," Mulder said. "True. We've got this. Sir."

"Does Agent Scully have anything to add?" Skinner asked.

"Scully," Mulder said. "Um. No. She, ah... she went to the restroom. At the gas station. So. Yeah."

"Are you all right, Agent Mulder?"

"Yes... sir," Mulder said. "I'm, um, I'm a little... thirsty. Scully... mmm. Scully's going to bring me, ummmm, a soda."

"That's kind of her."

"Yeah. Anyway. No... action here. Sir. All quiet."

"I'll check in again," Skinner said, and hung up.

"Fuck," Mulder said. He dropped his phone down the side of the seat, his hand fisting in Scully's hair. His head tipped back against the headrest as he panted. "Scully." He shuddered, a whole body gesture that made the car rock slightly.

Scully raised her head, wiping her mouth delicately with the back of her wrist. Mulder tucked himself back into his boxers and zipped up his trousers with shaking hands. At least there wasn't any clean up to do—Scully had taken care of that.

"I'm not sure it counts as road head if you weren't driving," she said.

"It counts for something," he said. "I had to talk to Skinner while you were down there. Goddamn, Scully, do I want to know where you learned to do that?"

"Catholic school." She had a Cheshire cat smirk. "I'm amazed you held off, and frankly a little disappointed in myself."

"I was this close." He held up his thumb and index finger, just a fraction of an inch apart, peering through the gap. "I thought about how much I hate Spender and that kept me from moaning in Skinner's ear."

"Maybe he would have enjoyed it." She raised an eyebrow.

"Maybe so," Mulder said. "Tell you what, you can talk to him the next time he calls, and I'll be the one getting a soda." He waggled his eyebrows. "I've got a thirst only you can slake, Scully."

"I look forward to the challenge of not moaning in Skinner's ear while I'm riding your face in the back seat," she said primly, and Mulder did moan at that.

"You don't play," he said admiringly.

"I don't know about that," Scully said, gazing steadily at him. "I think I play for keeps."

"Then I'm glad you're winning," Mulder told her.

Her smile was bright in the dim of the streetlight. "Me too."

hello!!! i literally just binged season 1 of superstition and finished it in two days…so amazing. On that note—i exported my save and it won’t let me load it in. I filled out the play without importing field but i was wondering if there was anyway to get the relationships as high as i had them before? Either way i’m so excited to play season two! thank u:)

Alright, gather around me and sit. Let me tell you a story about the dumbass shit that we sometimes find ourselves in.

TLDR; I can't fix this bug because it'll create other much bigger bugs so if you play before the rewrite is done you'll have to just recreate your character. I'm sorry, blame me and my past laptop.

So, I remember getting someone sending me something pertaining to this and I found the issue. Real easy issue. No idea actually how it happened to be honest. Solved it but then found an even bigger one.

I changed laptops a while back. I believed I transferred everything over. That is not the case. At all. When I transfer, sometimes it likes to act like it all transferred and the folders and all that will be there but if I comb through it then I'll find things missing. I legit had to recreate a few things due to this or just change them entirely. So many archived files, lost.

Anyway. One of the issues is that this is now what the assets folder for Superstition S1 look like compared to what it should look like.

Yes. That's it. That's the entire folder.

Now. Normally this wouldn't be a big issue of course, because I do indeed have all the files as you can see, that's how I'm doing the rewrite. I would just have to grab the missing ones from that folder and throw them here. Merge em. Push it out. The problem is still fixable.

But guess what. The earlier episodes all have been tweaked due to the rewrite. You can say: "damn Tee why didn't you just make another folder for that." Brain doesn't work that way. If I have too many folders, my brain shortcircuits and everything becomes a mess. I'm about to have that issue with Ozara from ToA, it's why I'm avoiding her right now. But that too, will soon have to be addressed.

My organization is very precise. But very shit.

So back to the point. Throwing them all in that folder, ignoring the ones rewritten will actually create more problems and bugs. That's because of the new variables introduced, new widgets for things, etc. And I can't just throw Episode 11 in and call it a day because I will still have to merge the files into the index, meaning that all of the episodes that aren't there, will not be there. You will be playing a game with 4 episodes.

So yea. It's a fun time when you figure shit like that happened. I'm sorry, cos it sucks and it's on me. A problem I didn't realize until it was brought to my attention. I legit checked all my backups hoping one of them would be correct but no. I'll have to try and fish out my old laptop and hope that it powers on for me to see if it has the correct versions on there.

#superstition ask #story time #a story about how I fucked up but oh not just me - my laptop too

S1E14: Gender Bender

Case: In what is arguably one of the most "why did you write this??" plots so far, our dynamic duo (per Mulder's request, I might add) investigate the deaths of five victims who appear to have, like... been fucked to death? Or something?

Actually I have to interrupt my own summary here, bc I just looked up the Wikipedia page (yes, bc I was trying to remember the state, shut up), and Glen Morgan is apparently quoted as saying he wanted "an episode with more of a sexy edge." How that ended up being this particular episode, I cannot say. That is an X-File in and of itself.

But I digress. People are dying of mb really high levels of pheromones caused by super mind-blowing sex. Sure. Also no one is sure if this killer is male or female. (They somehow manage to not even entertain the idea that any of the victims might have been gay, which I thought was an impressive feat of elephant avoidance.)

ANYWAY. Their investigation leads them to Massachusetts, where a bunch of sci-fi not-Amish people are chilling out doing not-Amish people things. Stuff kind of just snowballs from there. Mulder jumps down into the not-Amish people's ritual cellar with no backup and then proceeds to reprimand Scully for being reckless; Scully (for the first, but unfortunately not last time) almost bangs someone bc she is being manipulated due to some supernatural phenomenon; I laugh A LOT alone in my work office bc I had forgotten the stupid twist ending; and Nicholas Lea is a starving artist who has to take the roles he's offered if he ever wants to be bumped up to recurring character status. Sigh. Hustling the club scene used to be so simple...

Does someone die in the cold open: Yes. He is fucked to death. Or something.

Does Mulder present a slideshow: Yes! Of dead people! Who were fucked to death! Or something!

Does the evidence survive the investigation: The evidence doesn't even stay on this planet.

Whodunit: A horny alien cosplaying as a gender fluid Amish person. No, seriously.

Convictions: Zip.

Did they solve it: No. This is my very first explicit no with no qualifiers. They 1. did not figure out the cause of death definitively, 2. did not apprehend the suspect, 3. lost literally all of their evidence, and 4. the government wasn't even hiding anything this time, they just got outsmarted by some horny aliens and were left with nothing. In fact, I bet they actually know less now than when they started. Failure from top to bottom, guys, good work.

[how do i determine if a case is solved? check the scale here: x]

THIS EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY: Anxiously clenching your butthole while crossing your fingers and praying that your faves don't say anything TOO problematic. Are you educated in the systematic inequalities facing minorities in the world? Are you aware of how socially accepted language and behaviors have evolved over time to become more inclusive and less prejudiced? Do you also happen to be watching a show that was made pre-21st century, and "oh god, are they doing an episode that revolves around *gender*? Oh Christ. Oh no. Oh God"? Never fear! Anxiously clenching your butthole while crossing your fingers and praying that your faves don't say anything TOO problematic is here!

*This product is versatile, and can also be used in a variety of situations, including, but not limited to: Seeing your favorite celebrity's name trending online and not being sure why; introducing your trans friend to your socially conservative grandma; or being forced to listen to your boss's opinions on "woke culture" after your coworker casually mentioned seeing a black person in a new TV show.

Get clenchin'!

Hey! First of all I’d like to thank you for all the help and resources you provide to the community! I had some questions about updating to the new version of reshade. I use 5.9.2, and never used any other version. But I’d like to update so I can use the immerse ultimate shaders.

Will updating mess up my current presets at all? And in order to update do I have to uninstall or remove anything I have currently or just run the setup for the new version of reshade?

If I’ve paid for the immerse shaders before, do I have to pay again for the update or are updates free?

Also, is it the newest version you’re using in your YouTube video? The UI seems different and I love the relight spheres being slightly transparent. Would you recommend the update?

Sorry for all the questions lol Thanks in advance!!

I love an in-depth ask anon lol

The important thing when updating ReShade, to make sure your presets look the same, is that you have all the required shaders. I recommend going through your presets and noting which shaders they use, so then when you update you can check them off, and grab any you don't have. Make a backup of your current set of shaders and textures first, that way if anything's missing you can just grab it from the backup and drop it in your new files. You don't have to remove anything first. Because you're moving from one major release to another (in this instance from 5.x to 6.x) I recommend selecting the option for updating ReShade and the shaders. If you were just moving from say 6.1 to 6.3 then you could just choose the option to only update ReShade. But with a major version switch, updating everything makes sure you won't run into any compatibility issues along the way.

You do have to subscribe again to update the iMMERSE Pro and Ultimate shaders, yes. I believe there may be a new version coming before too long, so unless it's super urgent that you update now you might want to hold off for a little while. I'm not 100% sure when the next update will be though, so you could just be like me and be impatient and get it now!

And yes, I'm using the 2412 version, which is the latest one. You can change the transparency of ReLight's orbs, which is super helpful at times. Even on their lowest transparency though (which I think is around 10%) they will still be annoying and in the way if they're over someone's face, so I still toggle them off a lot when I need to see what I'm doing. Is the update worth it? I'm biased, for a couple of reasons, first I am ReLight's biggest cheerleader and will always try to get people to use it because it's such an essential shader for me now, but also I've just started doing some work for Marty so full disclosure full transparency, etc etc. I always get the latest versions, but iirc it wasn't as big a leap between the previous version and this one as it was between the old quint version and the immerse version, so if you're happy with how it works right now there's no harm in keep using it, at least until a newer version comes out.

Hello hello! It's me DFP

I'm wondering where you learned/are you learning to Code? I find the structure of your game quite entertaining and I like to take a little inspiration from it (If I'm allowed)

And I tried to make images that are options but apparently I'm still a long way from leaving the beta of my projects So I wanted to seek advice from you

(Also, if this is not the correct account to ask this I apologize, but if you have some very good advice that can help me please feel free to go to my DMs)

Hello DFP! :3 (I'm not exactly sure what you mean by structure sorry, but probably yes haha)

I didn't learn coding. In fact, the scariest part of my game is the code itself! I would like to take classes in art and coding someday! It's just not a great time in my country to be spending money atm ahahahaha- (cries in national housing and inflation crisis)

If you're using Renpy to make a VN, smart people would recommend giving the Renpy and Python's offcal guides a good look and watching Renpy tutorials on youtube.

For me, I'm the kinda person that only takes in information by dissecting and breaking things, then learning from the mistakes. I looked at the front page of the Python pdf, and it made my ADHD repossess my body despite being on the max dose of ritalin. I immediately closed it then skimmed through the Renpy quickstart, not really taking in any of the information, jumped right into designing the main menu, minced up the code, caught a bunch of errors, and had to check out fourms for fixes.

Have some random tips that may or may not be helpful since I don't know your skill level and I, am infact, not skilled in Renpy, I have no idea what I'm doing half the time! :3

Make new files for everything, don't just put it all in the script or it's going to get ridiculous.

Scripts get LONG use # and add notes, so you can CTRL + F and find stuff easily.

If you're like me, check out renpy's reddit/lemma soft fourms, if you're not getting good goog search results, it might be the words you're using, I had this issue a lot, try changing up words in your question (options/preferences/choices/decisions)

When you're learning copy and paste the code/answer, once you know the the code and can type it out fast, then starting manually typing it out.

Always check the dates on posts, there's a bunch of old renpy guides/fourms that don't work anymore.

There is more than one way to skin a dingo (sorry kevin), if you've found a fix that seems ridiculous but it's working, keep it!

If you have anger problems prepare to get fuckin' pissed off! Before you start coding have a coffee/bottle of water/energy drink beside you, so you have to walk away to take angry piss breaks and can clear your head.

If you absolutely cannot figure something out, make a copy, put it aside and work on something else until you're a little more skilled.

I have three copies of olie, the one that works, the one that I'm experimenting on, and the one on a USB I copy when I get drunk and forget which is my "fuck around" code and which is my "don't touch it, it works" code and I annihilate my game. Make regular backups to your USB for any emergencies, houses burn down. Limit your drinking while coding.

Compare code to the game base if you're coming up with errors. Goog the exact error that pops up when the game crashes. (renpy expected statement)

Click the blue text and it'll take you to it. Sometimes it's not very accurate and you need to look a little above or below the line the error happened. 70% of the time your error is a missing space or "," or an extra space!

I also recommend checking out all the shortcuts on your code editing software (I'm using visual studio code!) I was manually adding indents to each line, which was wasting an insane amount of time LMAO ;w;

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by images that are options, but I'm guessing an imagebutton? If you search "renpy imagebutton" there's a few forums and tutorials that will guide you but it's like this.

You need a screen for your buttons, an image, if you're feeling funky add transforms to the button, else just use a different image for idle/hover!

Add the anchor before you do xpos/ypos because it messes around with the positions and you'll have to re-adjust the xpos/ypos again. You need anchor for the transitions to work properly.

If you want the button to make a sound on click add activate_sound or remove it if you don't want one, it's optional.

This is how you make the transform, you can do a TON of different transforms. This is a simple idle/hover transform. ease is the animation type/speed, alpha is transparency, 1.0 is fully visible, 0.0 is transparent, at 0.5 on idle, it has a dimmed effect. the zoom makes it bigger. Make a new file for this one!

Buttons have a TON of actions to choose from, this is a time I actually would checkout renpy's offical guides. This one does the same as a jump at the end of a label or choice.

If you want your game to not pause when your buttons are visible, just use "show screen nameofthescreenhere zorder 20" (zorder is the layers, 20 is like usually the top, you can go higher though)

If you want your game to pause while the screen is up, use call screen instead of show!

I probably won't do too many of these coding/renpy support things on my tumblr but, OLIE'S discord server has a few game dev channels for coding support if you'd want to join there! :3

I wish you well and goodluck on your game!!! 💖🫡🍀
