But of course, Victor and Smiler had to dress up too! So, once they'd completed their pumpkins -- both excellent quality, I'm proud to reveal -- I had them pick their costumes! Victor stayed with Alice's space-related theme and put on an astronaut suit, while Smiler ended up as a cheerleader as I wanted to see what the masculine form of the outfit looked like. Kinda -- dull, honestly. I was expecting something with brighter colors. *shrug* Ah well, at least I'm sure it was comfortable! They headed inside to noodle around on their instruments -- Victor working again on that damn song that's been in his inventory for AGES because songs take TOO LONG TO WRITE; Smiler just singing someone else's song on their guitar -- while Alice headed upstairs to nuzzle Kelly and give her some love --
AND THEN, A POSSESSED CHILD APPEARED. O.O Well, more specifically, a random kid came up on the porch (the game didn't label her a trick-or-treater, and she didn't have a costume, so I guess she was just a random visitor), knocked on the door -- then pulled out a digital sketchpad and started sketching. And I'm guessing that's an item that kids aren't actually supposed to use, as she promptly did that thing where the legs stretch out and the kid starts hovering because the game's trying to use the adult skeleton or something. *facepalm* Sims 4, why are you like this sometimes...
However, something else appeared on the porch as well, as the possessed child finished up her sketching and eventually wandered off -- a specter! I figured that you HAD to give specters a gift on Halloween and had Smiler offer it their latest batch of skin balm. The specter was NOT appreciative -- possibly because it doesn't have skin. Smiler's attempts to communicate didn't pan out either, and I had them head inside to instead do something else Spookfest-related --
Namely, watch a terrible horror movie about a killer bunny-man with a chainsaw. At least, I think that's the intended plot of Moonlight Massacre III in-game. XD It took me a bit to get everyone settled properly on the couch, and there was another interruption from a trick-or-treater midway through(which I didn't mind, as it allowed Smiler to give them some candy and tick the tradition on their list), but they did get through it, and they all seemed to enjoy it well enough. Victor and Alice then had some cake and went to bed while Smiler went to jam on their guitar (getting skill level 9 out of it, yay), all while the jack-o-lanterns burned merrily in the front yard and the fish swam merrily in their little tank. :) It seemed to be the perfect Spookfest...
And then Alice woke up shortly before the 2 AM cut-off time with her Fury RAGING, despite an earlier Somber Howl and the fact that it was a new moon. Once again, I figured it was easier to tip her over the edge than try to bring it down, and so she ended her Spookfest with another brief rampage, marking her territory and digging in the dirt. I mean, at least this time she didn't change uncontrollably under a full moon in the middle of a party full of Smiler's friends? :p Maybe Alice going on a little werewolf fury-fest is gonna be another Spookfest tradition around here...
Anyway -- next week, we have a brief break from the Chill Valicer Save so I can show off another one of my builds here! And then the week AFTER that, it's back to farm chores and store stuff! See you then!

LIKE ONE COMMENT WAS LIKE "nyx only calls his work commendable!! and hypnos is surprised by it??? like does she not care??"
meanwhile you literally barely if at all see her praising *anyone* like that. Maybe Zagreus, but thats cuz like. He's the main character, who we play as, and the current focus of the story.
Considering the fact we dont know about Hypnos and his accomplishments then yeah, commendable is on the right track, to my recollection she doesnt' even say she's proud of Thanatos, she treats Thanatos the same???
Yet it's only highlighted on Hypnos's behalf because he's someone who points it out because he's *elated* to get that praise. Thanatos is just more cool and not pointing it out in a fashion that makes us realize *that is how she praises people*
Her way of expressing her love isn't the same for each son, and it isn't the same for each person. THE FACT SHE PULLS HIM TO THE SIDE TO SPESIFICALLY SAY "HEY SON. YOU'RE DOING GOOD" IS MOR THAN SHE DOES FOR THANATOS???? TO MY KNOWLEDGE???
insert confused emoji
Also the comment of "she wont even let him call her mom!" like yeah. You don't call your mom, mom when youre working together. That's just?? IF YOU'RE AT YOUR JOB. YOU DONT ADDRESS UR ARGUABLY CO-WORKER/BOSS. AS MOM.

went through a neuro-psych testing today (to confirm autism & adhd), and all the info they had given me prior indicated a four-hour session with results given 1-3 weeks after. about halfway through the psychologist said she had everything she needed and told me to come back at the end of this business week for the results, because “they would be fairly straightforward”.
i’d made the joke several times that they were going to diagnose me on spot due to how bad i think my adhd had gotten, but i didn’t think i was going to be practically right about it.
