..polly pocket au.. (<- a type of doll.)

#witch hat tag #orufrey #just part of my modern au.... maybe this is like their 3rd meeting at age 10 or something thanks to their caretakers..#i drew the tiny arkco and felt like they looked like tiny dolls like my little sister used to play with LOL #it's like an Atelier Dreamhouse where your polly pockets can be artists btw and there's a brushbug accessory.#the baby romantic tension of crafting little worlds with our dollies and what if my agott dolly had a crush on your coco dolly..?#they will grow out of dolls and play on neopets more. Neopets is for serious kids. plus it's too sad when my doll misses your doll?#I literally have several other actual things i want to draw like proper things =_=#qifrey is good at making dramatic backstories but oru will always be like ERM..ARE THEY IN LOVE??..i love that about him #the bracelets thing in the manga..crucial oru characterisation moment..even if they played sims though it wouldnt be like #oru plans the relationships and qifrey does the house design and suchlike though he'd like it #qifrey also has a very emotional and personable mind but he thinks of like..Ooh what traumas do they have..Let that man play dnd #also qifrey has decided the dramatic villain for his polly pocket is a masked floating man btw. Of course. he resurfaces in his dnd game #*dramatic voice* Release us from our chains polly. Give into the forbidden magic and deliver us (olly: WHOA..... <3) *high voice* NO!!

I just hope we'll be together for 999 more years💜

#sims #ts4 #sims 4 #photoshoots #character verse #aimee fletcher #clarissa everett #I couldn't resist using an undertale reference from the recent newsletter (only slightly edited as it was friends in the original)#because it just so happens that the game and my legacy have its anniversary literally two days apart - September 15 and September 17 2015 #and both celebrate 9 years #next year it will be 10 ahhhhh #clary is just so special #I remember when I made her and the others she was my favourite sim #and I didn't initially plan a legacy with them it was just a gameplay #but I started it because I wanted a long-going legacy like my girlfriend's old ts3 legacy I was a big fan at the time #so megs I also credit you for the fletchers and everything that's happened since then. I can't imagine it being any different #I've had so many hurdles and insecurities and everything over this legacy but they're still there and I love them and always will #they're the backbone of my creative OC verse

I lied about posting art next, my bad. Someone on AO3 was asking me about how I plotted out my MASH/Torchwood crossover, so I said I'd drop a look at my planning doc, for anyone that wants to see what it looks like when I'm going full wall-of-red-string about a fic

I'm very visual, so I used colour-coded tables to help me keep track of things. I basically wanted to ensure I knew the BIG MAIN GOAL for both MASH and Torchwood, followed by the B and C plots that were happening at the same time. Once I knew what was the Main End Goal for everything, I then broke the plotlines down into the plot points that needed to happen to arrive at the End Goals without it feeling random. Then I just assembled those plot points together to ensure that pacing made sense and felt good. Obviously things changed a lot from a planning document and the ultimate end, but that's the gist of it.

#i'm sure no one cares about this but i do love getting to chatter about my blorbos and art and shit so here we are #bene speaks #fanfiction #to be clear i do not normally go this far into a planning document this story just had way too many plot threads not to without going insan #or doing a bad job #if it's a longish fic i'll sometimes have a bare bone outline just to make sure i keep my eye on the end goals and pacing but that's it #the only other thing i've gone this intense for is that hogan's heroes dating sim that i've had forever simmering on the back burner #that planning document is mighty and infuriating #torchwood #mash

Apparently I can meet my goal of roughly 400,000 words in 6 months if I just somehow write at least 2,200 words a day ghbjh... Almost 2,500 today... huzzah...

#Definitely not going to be able to stick with it just due to like... being realistic about my energy levels and etc. ESPECIALLY as we #enter the Evil Summer and it becomes hot all the time. But... one can attempt.. at least...#I'm also a very slow writer since I tend to re-read and edit while I write. and only move onto the next section once what I'm writing #seems okay. Which is easy for visual novel type stuff. since ''sections'' of a conversation are more clearly marked (like if you #have a menu option with 5 different dialogue choices. finish the character's response for choice 1 before moving onto 2. etc.)#Especially since when I'm done with a whole quest I always follow it up by playing through it and picking every option and making sure it #actually all works okay and etc. So I am already going to see it all a second time. Then I can go back and reorder a few words or remove #certain sentences that don't sound natural when I read them out loud (I always read it all outloud to myself since it is... just peple #talking.. it should sound like natural dialogue in their voice. etc). But my ''first draft'' is kind of not as first drafty since I pause t #edit a lot as I go along. So it also takes longer probably than it would take other people who I think treat a first draft as more #of a loose guideline or something. AANYWAY...#80F in my bedroom right now again... huzzah... I did end up finishing and recording that sims build video before the heat wave (or is #it really a heat wave if it's just summer..?? lol) came in.. but now... augh.. the editing... plus the costume photos and all else... Much #to do as always.. Often such a long todo list.. a giant scroll hung upon the walls of the evil hermit wizard tower..#Anyhow.. I hope I can finish getting ready for bed early in time to reward myself with a game of tripeaks solitaire whilst I snack on #cheddar cheese and some of those preserved artichokes in a jar. hrgm... I actually have nasturtiums (ultimate best flower) on the #deck again this year but I had to move them all into a corner today because the leaves were getting burnt by the sun lol.. Also am now more #cautiously weaving through social media to ignore all dragon age news. NOT bc of spoilers (I actually love spoilers/literally never play #any game until there's full guides on it I can read to plan my entire playthrough based on knowing exactly what I want to happen lol + mods #and etc.) but just because I'm so busy with my ownprojects I simply do not have the brainspace to dedicate... Yes I love to think #about elves and fictional universe lore. but no.. I pretend I do not see it. Does not exist to me actually. ghgj.. OHH also took som #cool pictures of flowers in the garden section of a store and I wanted to do like.. character designs based on the colors of the flowers o #something. but that might just be another unnecessary project to add to the pile.. I want to commit to the daunting task of dyeing my #hair again some time.. hrm.. this is all of the updates I can think of. As if a bunch of random tags make up for never posting anything for #weeks on end lol.. alas.. too warm to think properly I suppose.. .. I neeeeeed a long lost relative to leave me some million dollar #estate in their will so I can have the resources to move to a colder climate or something ..augh #.. but for now.. I shall toil away in my little wizard tower trying to write 2000 something words a day whilst sweating and such ghbj

#ooc #ramblings #you /know/ it occurred to me today that in a certain sense mig caught a lucky break?#in that his dna was spliced with that of a spider's instead of a previous copy of his own dna as he had originally planned #that's absolutely not to say that the process he went through was still several kinds of horrific #and continues to get even worse every time i try to picture what he might've endured #but i'm just saying things could've got way more fucked up for him in a completely different sense. hard as that is to be believed.#considering tyler had - surprise surprise - spiked his drink with something meant to temporarily simulate rapture and not the actual drug #i'll need to have a further think on it but for the moment the closest thing i can compare this to #is something like radiation exposure #where instead of /shaking/ the rapture addiction he sort of signed his own demise?#with cell division shutting down and just other metabolic processes getting all out of whack #that or the process outright killing him like mr. sims #so YEAH #there's layers and layers to this that i could keep rambling on forever about ngngcbn

like i wouldnt mind like. Not having new linear games post 5 its judt that sims 4 wasnt even supposed to Be The Sims 4 it was a last minute pivot and the base code is so outdated and was broken On launch so like. i just wish we could have the final actual sims game be like. one that was always intented to be a major sims release AND be intended to be so long term . yk

#i dont even want like. Ooh major graphical updates whatever if sims 5 was announced and they looked photorealizstic id hurl i wouldnt play #it #my ideal would ig be sims 4 with a touch more realism style wise. if this makes sense #like its a bittt too cartoony for me but i like the like. Clay hair or whatever SJFNFJ. and i think having it be simple in basegame means #you can customize it easier + itd run better on more pcs #so im fine eith that. i would nottt want it more cartoony #i also like. I understand the sims is like. an all ages game i do sometimes wish that the animations in 4 were a bit toned down #like i dont mind silly goofy wacky stuff i think its fun and like. The sims has always been a bit sillay yk. but the overexaggerated #animations r sometimes like -_-.... to me. but thats personal preference #IDK. the tags that show up when i type idk r so funny. do i ever know anything. sources say no #BUT ya i just rly wish like. if this is what they wanna do i wish theyd give us One more full game give it lots of time and love and rly rly #focus on having it excel at like. being this partnof the sims #since they wanna have like. Other sims games that have online features and multiplayer and everything. they could use that to make sure that #ts5 was Rly solid as a foundation and as like. ykwim..... they could plan updates for the future And dlc or whatever and i just think itd be #a better move than trying to make sims 4 happen #bc i judt dont think With all the updates in the world. sims 4 wont ever be like. what it couldve been. yk. i just dont think you can make #it work without Fullllyyyy just starting over.#and at this point with like..so many modders and stuff and everything and how much dlc there is thatd be impossible Esp if they keep #releasing new stuff which. They will ^_^#idk. im excited for some other lifesim games im keeping my eye out #but i rly do love the sims and i just wish that it could be as good as it could be. It has such a huge budget and team and like. if ea would #stop just trying to make as much money as possible off it i feel like they could make Such an amazing game. not to put down indie gamedevs #at all the games jve been looking at look Incredible like.. yk. but the fact those games are so good eith FAR smaller teams and budgets is #like. imagine what we could have if the sims had that amt of care and time put into it.#but whatever whatever whatever. sorry im just rambling #again ik what i would want from my platonic ideal of a sims game isnt what everyone would eant #but idk. i feel like another good step might be like. making the other sims games more available and updating them so they run better on #modern pcs. but i dont think thatll ever happen DNDNFJFNFN.

How it feels trying to open .wrk file in TSWR to work on the project and the whole file won't open due to the program crashing while saving.

Luckily, I still have the package file I've been using to preview my work in the game, but the fact of the matter is I was 75% done and now all the progress was lost into a void. Thankfully, I saved all necessary texture maps.

the kids released a new album

#ts4 #simblr #ts4 edit #ts4 render #sims 4 #myedits #AUverse #dhestyn #kelly #ok i actually have things to say about this #FIRST OF ALL this is not what i intended to make when i sat down & started working on the bandAU #i had this big elaborate thing planned & then i realized... i didn't wanna do it. at least. not right now lol #idk why i think everything i make needs to be so elaborate & involved bc it doesn't?? like where did i get that idea from?#i can just make something small & silly sometimes yk #n e way. this is like. one of the kids' albums i guess? my thought is that dhes wrote it/was in charge of it #that's why he's on the cover.#kel writes most of their albums (w help from the others ofc) but dhes really wanted to try writing one & this is what came of it #most of the titles don't actually mean anything. they're just like. random words i thought dhes would use lol #but the first 3 are references to the canonverse #also i originally wanted to have dhes shirtless bc 1. symbolism of like vulnerability?#but also 2. i thought the lighting would look pretty against his skin #BUT he has a death note tattoo right there between his shoulder blades & i just.......... could not take him seriously like that so #he had to keep his clothes on
