⋆꙳·❅*‧ DECORATING THE CHRISTMAS TREE ‧*❆ ₊⋆
warnings: gender-neutral reader, fluff, (i don't explicitly mention this, but the reader and legolas are dating), pure fluff, this is much more christmas themed than my other ones. w/c: 1040
notes: were there light bulbs in lotr? no. do they exist here? yes.

"What is…this deemed to accomplish?" Legolas inquisitively questioned as you took the lights from his hand to continue to drape across the tree.
"It lights up the tree. Now hand me the garland."
You and Legolas met during the quest to Mordor, and even though the tales of such adventure seem like it was many moons ago, it has only been a year since you returned to the familiarity of your home with your kin. Nevertheless, you two remained in contact with each other- and with Legolas finding an excuse to leave Mirkwood, you invited him to your village for Christmas. Sure it was small, a mere stone compared to the grandeur of the palace he lived in, but he didn't seem to mind at all once he arrived. In fact, he appeared to be taken aback by it, his innocent curiosity never failing to warm your heart.
Since his arrival fell on the days before Christmas, when the snow lay across the barren land, and the smell of woodlands and baked goods wafted through the air, it was a time like no other. It pulled it all together when you saw his face light up as he looked at every part of the celebration while you explained the holiday and the reason for such a festivity. From then on, he kept a constant stream of questions, unmistakably invested in the tradition and practice.
The whole ordeal was…. Endearing, to say the least.
Now under the cover of stars and moonlight, both of you decorate the Christmas tree nestled in a corner as you dig through your crate of decorations. Legolas remains forever patient, standing off to the side with his hands politely clasped behind his back while you ruffle through the box.
You huff indignantly when the embellishment you are searching for is lost, and Legolas takes this as a cue to step in and offer his aid.
"Do you need something?" He moved from his former position to behind you without so much as the air changing. The only indication he was near was the brush of clothing against your back and the dripping honey of his euphonious voice.
For a moment, you don't respond as you make your last-ditch effort in your search. However, just as you are about to give up, the jewel you were searching for reveals itself to you. Well, it was far from a gem, considering its worn down appearance, but more of an air loom that had made its way into your hands, but despite its years of use, it still carried its illuminating gleam.
"Ah, here it is." You smile fondly, holding up the golden star, wordlessly examining it before your eyes catch Legolas's questioning stare. "This is a tree topper. It's the last decoration to adorn the tree."
He nods in understanding, his golden locks moving with a slight shake. You set your eyes on the tree, only to have your face morph into an expression of puzzlement.
The tree was too tall.
In the past, you had your father help you set this sacred adornment on the tip of the tree. But, unfortunately, he would most likely be busy at this hour, so that begged the question: how were you supposed to get this on the tree?
"Is everything all right, meleth nin?" he asked tenderly as if raising his voice a volume higher would frighten you.
Right, you had forgotten he was behind you. The sparkles dance off the ornamented bejeweled tree, casting shadows over the floor as if taunting you about its impossible height.
Then it hits you, and you mentally curse yourself for being so foolish.
"Legolas?" You turn your head to find his eyes already gazing upon you as the question slips past your lips. Heat burns your face, and you are sure he can deftly read your look of embarrassment as the words tumble out of your mouth before you can stop them. "Might you aid me in designating this star on the limb of this sapling?"
His gaze travels to the green tree harvested from the forest before settling on you. A smile creases his thin lips, his eyes glimmering with a mischievous gleam.
"I have a better idea." His deft fingers swipe over your hips, taking a firm hold of them as he raises you up. An involuntary shriek of surprise tumbles past your tightly sewn lips, and your hands fly to him, grasping them in your noiseless plea for him not to drop you.
"Worry not, I have you," he reassures, his curved lips betraying his amusement as he squeezes your hip to drive his point further. You take a deep breath, readjusting the star in your grip before you lean forward.
You've always admired the impeccable strength and vitality of the elves, but now trusting his power for your safety, you've come to value it- trust it, for it's the reason you ultimately placed the last decoration on the tree. The star glitters from where it is perched like thousands of its kind splattered over the reflected light from the candles.
You lean back, proudly admiring your work with satisfaction as Legolas returns you to your feet. You turn on the lights strung around the tree, observing with barely contained wonder as the tree comes alive with an assortment of dashing hues. You spare a glance at him, a smile pulling taut at your lips as you watch his wonderment in elation. You return to his side, his arm trailing down to your waist, where he draws you in.
"Perfect," you mutter, engraving the sight and memory into the far reaches of your mind while resting your head on his shoulder. Legolas's body tenses in preparation, his hands stilling their simple-minded path across the planes of your waist. The dark liquid brown of his irises falters from the tree to yours, brimming with bright hues that light your face in their magnificence, your irises bathed in that same wondrous color. Yet, Legolas finds his voice, although a bit breathless, which is uncharacteristic of him. For all his elegance and grace as an elf, he can't find a better word to describe not only you but everything that came along.
"Perfect."

Solstice with the Weirs, chapter 3 live
Benny examines a clay blob suspended from red ribbon. It's an "angel" that Ethan made from salt dough when he was five, and at some point over the years has lost a wing.
"We don't have to put that one up," Ethan says. He's working out how to untangle the lights—too enthusiastic for his own good, Benny has already plugged them in, turning the plastic strands into live fire in his hands.
"Aw, but baby Ethan made it," Benny replies with a fake pout.
"Fine," Ethan gives in, knowing even if he could talk Benny out of the blob-angel, Mom would just hang it up when she got here.
For Benny and Renata, the exploration of the Morgan family ornaments is delightful and untainted by familiarity or embarrassment. Renata coos over anything related to Jane in a way that Ethan thinks jeopardizes the 'just friends' cover. Except that Benny is doing the exact same thing, if for the decidedly different purpose of tormenting his best friend.

Dear Gus & Magnus,
Mom told Gus they could put up Christmas decorations after football day started, so while she was putting Mags down, he walked into the kitchen where I was washing dishes and he said, "Dad, I turned the Saints on so you can start football day!" I told him games didn't start until noon, but then Mom came in to say he'd found a football game on the TV. It ended up being a preview page, but I was still impressed that he made it happen, all because he was so eager to get Christmas started.
Dad.
Little Rock, Arkansas. 12.4.2022 - 1.06pm.

Besties: Me and my Cat (CC Pack for The Sims 4)
Introducing "Besties (Part 2): Me and My Cat" CC Pack!
I'm super excited to bring you the second part of the Besties series, now focusing on our beloved feline friends! In the first part, I shared with you guys a collection all about the beautiful bond between dogs and babies. For this second part, I thought I’d switch things up a bit. Instead of focusing on cats and babies, I wanted to highlight something just as heartwarming—the special relationship between cats and adults. Yes, you guessed it, I’m talking about the delightful world of cat ladies (and gents)!
This pack has loads of goodies for your Sim’s cats. There are two new versions of the cat tree: one with a cozy little house and another that looks like a cool cat gym on the wall. Your cats will love the new bed, scratchers, and another bed shaped like a tiny house. Of course, I’ve got the essentials like a litter box and food, but let’s be real—we all know the ultimate cat item is the cardboard box!
And because I know how much Sims love their kitties, I’ve added some fun items for a cat-obsessed Sim’s bedroom. I was going for an eclectic vibe this time. There’s a new classic bed with cute cat details on the pillows, a cat-shaped lamp for the night table, and an adorable armchair with cat accents. Plus, I’ve got new curtains and, most importantly, picture frames to show off the beauty of your Sim’s cats.
I’ve put a lot of love into this CC pack and can’t wait for you to enjoy it. Don’t forget to tag me in your social media posts—I can’t wait to see your amazing creations with your Sims and their feline besties!
Enjoy the fun and whimsy of The Sims 4 custom content, and as always, happy simming! 😊🐱📦

The existing pool. Water can make an attractive transition between garden and countryside. Here the detailing of the pond is natural, with boulders used to make an informal surround.

Which holiday means the most to your OC?
#OC: Catherine Stanley#Christmas definitely Christmas#Cos she gets to make food for the neighbors#like deviled eggs gingerbread cookies and peanut butter blossoms#And snow! She loves making a snowman#cold outside? Time to make a warm hearty soup or stew#decorating the tree#and decorating the outside of her house with lights and a wreath on the door
