#but this made me very grumpy

[loversandantiheroes]

Y'know, ok, I get Lae'zel not being into Halsin's proposal. I get Wyll not being into it, old-fashioned lad that he is. But Karlach's "Not now, probably not ever, but I guess if you really want to I won't stop you" just makes NO sense to me. Ms. Ma'am was practically twirling her hair asking Halsin if he was into big strong women. She's been beyond touch-starved, is practically chomping at the bit for affection, but she says nO???? Like goddamn girl, if there's anybody at this camp that deserves to ride the bear, it's you.

Me in a positive near pleading tone: please romance Davrin or at least watch clips of his romance on YouTube, he’s so fun and a charming delight

Some walnut husker who’s never ever interacted with my blog suddenly in my notes with the same amount of bravado a Punxsutawney Phil announcing there’s six more weeks of winter: Well actually here is an itemized list of the 20 top reasons why I will not be doing that and it’s totally 100% not a racism thing I don’t care what his ethnicity is I promise it’s not that trust me op yes I’m totally aware that racism is very often internalized and we don’t even realize as white people that were being racist but it’s totally not that I just don’t like Davrin even though I project all of his personality traits onto the other companions Wyll Ravenguard Style op are you listening its total-

no i’m with you! i was one of the few people who didn’t think that kstews character should dump her partner and date aubrey plaza instead. don’t get me wrong i loved her character i just didn’t think that was the right move for the narrative and i didn’t hate harper like seemingly most people did

I really love all the characters, honestly. I felt like Harper’s mistakes were rooted in understandable fear, and that was…kind of the point. To have Abby dump this woman she loves at the first sign of trial would have sent a pretty awful message. Like “better not fuck up, or she’ll ditch your ass for AUBREY PLAZA—and she SHOULD.” That would have really bummed me out. I loved that Abby could just rely on this cool new friend, and we didn’t have to venture into the usual wlw-all-have-to-bang-each-other (often-by-cheating) territory that scarred me as a young gay.

Sims 2 CC Mega Post

I say 'mega' but there really isn't a whole lot, I just didn't wanna split it up. Anyway, yeah, I mostly and normally and prefer to make Sims 4 stuff, but I made some Sims 2 stuff for me last year and this and I figured, may as well share it. Most of these require outside meshes so keep that in mind, Sims 2 CC downloading is a bloody nightmare.

Alex Skin

So I made a custom skin with tattoos for Alex as it seemed simple enough to do. Ain't gonna look perfect, but it looks fine from a distance, same resources I used for my Sims 4 versions, so I did vector the rose and skull. I based the skin off these default replacements. You don't NEED these, but they make it so that everyone matches. Yes that site requires an account and login, it's NSFW, it has body hair and works with nudity. Because obviously I play with mods like that. I made the skin look right for Fit/Thin/Fat but I didn't bother with any age but adult nor did I bother with female, because, idc. I THINK this is Alex's hair mesh, but idfk, I have so many that look like this.

It also works in Castaway Stories, as does all of these, because I used them in it too. :> That made Alex the palest guy on the island as all the skin tones in Castaway Stories were shifted to one tone darker per. I manually put my replacement skin in that too, but I didn't have the darkest, so no body hair to them.

Streaked Jack Hair

You need this mesh to make this work. I made this for myself as I didn't really like anything else I had for him, and this is Sims 2, so I went with earlier hair, and I liked how this mesh looked. Loosely based on like this hair. I didn't bother with other ages beyond adult again. I would have if I decided to de-age him and send him to university, but I did that with Otto instead.

Again also works in Castaway Stories, as I used it, again. It's easy to import Sim's faces from 2 into the stories games.

Awsten Tricolor Hair

Awsten Red Hair

You need this mesh to make this work. The bright green in that is also great and I used that for him at first. These are his eyes too, or rather his right eye. No screenshots of the red hair, but it's just a bright plain red in case you prefer it. I made this hair as it looked okay with the colors kind of being randomly spread around the mesh. This is his outfit btw. Again only works with adult as far as I'm aware.

BONER Shirt

R&R Shirt

NoRegRetsShirt

JALEXShirt

BMTHShirt1

BMTHShirt2

BMTHShirt3

BMTHShirt4

You need this mesh to make these work. All of these are Everyday fashion only by account of only the Everyday category having the option for separates and these are all tops. Don't ask me what pants I use, I have so many downloaded, but these work with all of them.

As it turns out I didn't take screenshots of all of these ingame, but maybe these help with that.

PTV Hoodie

DropDead Hoodie

You need this mesh for the PTV hoodie. I don't THINK the DD hoodie needs anything external, I compared it to a vanilla mesh and it seemed to line up. I don't know, I made it last December and I didn't log everything I did. Like the shirts above, Everyday category only as they are tops.

As a bonus, here's some misc Sims 2 screenshots to hit the image limit, including this stuff and with no context to my game. I know most people on modern computers play with The Ultimate Collection, but I installed it via discs, and a few ISOs as I didn't feel like spending $30+ for a few missing stuff packs on eBay. :) Pretty sure those ISOs are why my game is British and I have to always manually set the clock and a few other small things every time I load it. Not a big deal to me, just felt I'd mention for clarity. Castaway Stories is from an ISO too as have you SEEN those prices on eBay?! I have Sims 3 on Disc too, 100%, never made any CC for it tho. I love how Sims 2 was out at the peak of, ahem, mid to late 2000s culture so a lot of CC for it is of it's time in the best possible way. I kept this theme going with adding in custom music that ONLY existed from before 2009 (so 2008 is my cut-off date) and it's fun only hearing music of the era ingame. :) I DID make stuff for Sims 1 too years ago but I don't know how I even really did it so idk how to make more and also I don't care that much. I wanted to try playing with Alex and Jack in Sims 1 too but I kept getting fucked up files that didn't work or look right and I didn't know what I needed to do to make it right and I didn't wanna waste more time than I already did trying to make their faces. I do have semi-not ugly faces and outfits for a couple others tho.

Oh yeah, all this stuff is made in the Body Shop and GIMP for textures.

i wasn't prepared for the look of absolute scorn and disdain levelled at me by dolly then for daring to crunch down on my crisps

[take-ya-to-the-ghey-bar]

carrying over from this post, somewhat, but-- the added struggle of finding nice outfits to build on the costume idea with, only to have your muse start fighting with you on them, because of certain details fff--

[bitegore]

ngl i think i kind of was a genius for being like 'yeah this character is a scary killyou cannibal scary killer who scary kills you' and then realizing that the way my worldbuilding works out is that there's a nonzero chance that if you leave literally any body parts over they can just come back, depending on what they believe in their heart of hearts can kill them. Of course she'd start eating her kills. She probably tried normal stuff first and then realized it didn't work and she had to try harder if she wanted to actually keep them dead.

Laios wouldn't judge me or make me feel bad for being excited about things I enjoy.

Today really has been a big Fuck You from beyond regarding writing.

Like. This entire last few months have, but that's been reasonable. I've been busy. The last week less so, but I got sick. I get it, life.

Why'd you have to be mean on the one day where I pick up a document.

(Was it because I started a new WIP? It was probably the new WIP.)

y’know…it’s perfectly alright to pronounce place names in the language you are speaking, even if the place names are from another country.

this post brought to you by my hearing a youtuber pronounce ibiza as “eye-bee-tha”. like…no. half-right is all-wrong. like, congrats on trying to do the z but it’s a long i sound. (“ee-bee-tha”)

also, hilariously, neither of those are how it’s said locally (the catalan name is Eivissa -> əjˈvisə which i am not going to transliterate into anglophone-friendly sounds)
