[ 🍀 ] DELIVERING : GIF PACK from THE WILDS (2022) EP 1-4 can be found on the source link. each gif were made by me from scratch. respect him as a faceclaim & enjoy ♡
i am currently at the "teiu case" episodes (411-412 case files: 491-493) on my rewatch and. can we just appreciate Suzuki Sonoko?
this particular case is only a couple of cases later than Suspicious Cell Phone Murder Case (case files: 480-483 and eps 398-400). so i'm assuming, even with the muddy timeline, that they happened close to each other in the timeline too (esp based on the weather and a bit of time mention).
my main point is: ran gets shinichi's contact info. she can finally call him, she has a solid way to reach him. and ofc sonoko is given this information too, and one of the first things she does with this information? Suzuki Sonoko-sama, the Great and Amazing, takes a picture of one Mouri Ran in a swimsuit and sends it to one Kudou Shinichi. i love how she, in one beautiful move:
gets to tease ran, which she always finds delight in
makes her other friend (since childhood) happy
bc yes, it is for teasing purposes but sonoko is well aware that these two have feelings for each other (and is their biggest supporter, A TRUE QUEEN), and that shinichi will absolutely appreciate such a thing. (in this particular instance, knowing shinichi better than ran bc SONOKO SUSPECTS SHINICHI SAVED THE PICTURE, instead of deleting it, like he said to ran, while ran believes shinichi WHICH ABSOLUTELY SENDS ME, SO ADORABLE, but also, he did totally not delete that picture, ran).
sonoko and ran are best friends, yes, but sonoko and shinichi are also really close friends, and i think it needs to be mentioned more.
hello fall out boy fans who sim and simmers who listen to fall out boy, i have a build for you all:
i spent the last few days creating a little home where every room is a different album or ep (soul punk and truant wave included, as i made too many rooms. oops), even the exterior has a theme. i did use a cluster of packs but it’s limited to six, and none are expansion or game packs, so hopefully everyone can place it fairly easily.
ea id: stumpymatic
lot name: 412 Phoenix Valley RD
everything is based off visuals and vibes, but i do believe a large chunk of rooms will get the point across. the common thread between them all is that this is a home for plant lovers! every room, minus the basement and kid’s room, have at least a couple plants.
a breakdown of the rooms + their themes and additional photos below the cut:
basement (take this to your grave): this one was a bit hard for me because tttyg isn’t one of my top albums, so i ran short on visual references, but i do believe i got the vibe down just enough. the general basement atmosphere helped significantly. ironically i added the boneyard fish tank without any thought to the theme.
MAIN FLOOR
living room (american beauty/american psycho): this is arguably the most normal room in the house. abap to me is very bright with warm yellows and cozy greens, its summer. tried to tie into the lyrics of “the kids aren’t alright” with the bear chair and photos of (what i presume) those long gone.
bathroom (pax am days): the thing about pax am days is while it’s fall out boy going back to their hardcore roots, they are in a mature state as individuals and an band. so this one ties back to the brick walls of the basement, but classier. it’s also just straight black. because i love dark bathrooms lol
kitchen (mania): this one was hard, and i erased everything i previously typed because i had a different idea and reworked the entire room. the new version is more cohesive than the original and spacious. small references are the obvious purple wall, but also a glass ceiling over the breakfast nook for "i hope the roof flies off."
dining room (soul punk): this one is definitely more stylized and i actually love it a lot, probably my favorite room. i just picture parties where the attire is formal but fun happening in here. if you place this lot for any reason whatsoever, please let it be because i spent at least 20 minutes making the boxes off the album cover out of individual neon lights.
SECOND FLOOR
main bedroom (folie à deux): this was like mania in as much as it was kind of a bad decision, but i think i made it work. references: color (obviously), butterfly photo ("disloyal order"), baseball bat ("headfirst slide"), mirror ("pavlove"), black dress ("tiffany blews"), and of course, the gnome in the bear outfit (which i affectionately call the "folie gnome" and try to remember to place in most of my builds).
master bath (truant wave): this is all color palette vibes. i just kept picturing the cover and love a brown toned bathroom with pops of green. but also the lights over the sinks, so you can have your own spotlight.
hall bath (so much (for) stardust): again with the black bathroom theme, but this time with pops of pink and touches of yellow. plus dog art! gotta have dog art. used the string of pearls light fixture again because a) love plants, and b) bubble-like.
kid's room (infinity on high): was absolutely bless with the photos that came with this album. it's not exact by any means, but it's similar. no sheep or grasshoppers in basegame, but we have a couple llamas and some ladybugs for replacements.
teen's room (from under the cork tree): to be honest this was a struggle to find the right vibes with the wallpaper and paints, but i ultimately like it. references: made sure to use a bed with proper bedposts, yes there are 16 candles on the dresser, postcards, and more!
shared bathroom (lake effect kid): this one is like the master bath, color vibes more than anything.
EXTERIOR
landscaping, etc. (save rock and roll): of course i saved my favorite album for my favorite part of building <3 lots and lots of red, layers upon layers with the flowers. apple trees to tie back to the videos for "young volcanoes" and "just one yesterday," as well as the pickup truck, and of course a fire pit*. all tucked away within a classic picket fence – which is the entire reason i created this, had "miss missing you" in my head then thought to myself, "i do love the picket fence in the sims.." and here we are!
*the fire pit that should be functional (it's one i pulled from another build i made and it did work), just have you sims light the tiny fireplace in the middle.
(the halls are very generic, to give the illusion that this is a normal house lol)
just a photo of the dining room because i need you all to see the boxes aksjfs
a few final notes:
• place with move objects ON
• packs used:
– my first pet stuff
– backyard stuff
– romantic garden stuff
– desert luxe kit
– blooming rooms kit
– holiday celebration pack

SUMMARY
“Inspired by the wealth of Bella Goth lore from the Sims/SimCity franchises (aka the “simsverse”), the Bella Brand Series includes more than a dozen sets and 230+ new business-themed items. Lore suggests that the wealth/influence of the Gilman, Crumplebottom, Bachelor, and Goth families increases considerably under Mortimer and Bella Goth, especially the latter. So, this series imagines what a prestigious Bella-based brand might look like…”

Functional Apparel Objects
Apparel objects are debug items and show up as “clothing pile” in the catalog (Misc > Dressers). They must be placed on one of the DEBUG displays/shelves or they’ll float. Once purchased, take them out of the sim’s inventory and choose from one of the following:
Purchase Clothing. Select an outfit (or several) of any type. Each apparel object is worth §100 towards the TOTAL cost. Sims save more money (and your businesses make more money) if they use one apparel object per new outfit.
Sell. Recycle the object for §100 simoleons. If you exit the Buy Clothing window without adding anything to your shopping cart, §100 will be added to the sim’s household funds instead.
Apparel objects are worth §100 regardless of how much sims pay for them on OFB/community lots. Pricing an item below this amount can function like a discount sale (i.e., pay $75 in-store and §100 towards the purchase or a 25% “discount/rebate.” You can decide whether this counts as cheating). Pricing it above this amount is not recommended since sims will end up losing extra money.
Debug objects have slots which “catch” fellow clones if you place them too close. To prevent this when trying to clutter them close together, turn “snap objects to grid” OFF and “move objects” OFF.

December 8th, 2011 advent gifts. The flowers set can be found over here in this post. But otherwise this download includes:
Magic set
This set is for your more magically inclined or eccentric sims. There are six jars with an assortment of items stored inside, from frogs to bones to herbs. The gargoyle statue was one that came with a previous store set and while I really liked it, I wanted a much smaller version to decorate shelves and fireplace mantles with. The propped up spell book comes with a combination of seven recolors of the stack of books as well as the spell book itself. And lastly, the crystal ball and wand were both converted from Sims Medieval. All items will be under deco - sculptures within the game and should be base game compatible.
Sims Medieval hood deco
I am always wanting more neighborhood deco and here are a few items converted from Sims Medieval to decorate your landscapes with. There are two fences (polycounts- fence: 106, fence 2: 412), three various wagons (polycounts- peasant wagon: 1673, broken wagon: 1855, war wagon: 1600) and a well (polycount- 1399). The preview above was taken from lot view. I believe hood deco requires the user to have at least one EP (any of them) to work.
Deco Fish Bowls
And lastly, a much smaller set. A couple of fish converted from Sims 3. More specifically, the Death fish, Clown fish, Blow fish and vampire fish. They can be found in deco - sculptures in the game and should be base game compatible. (psst, @deedee-sims made animated versions that you can find here)
during the final battle against Ma Xianhong at the end of Biyou Village arc, Wang Ye explains that the cost of manipulating time is to "burn up his own life force":
(manhua ch. 295; see also donghua s5, ep. 9)
and the backlash is immediate (see also manhua ch. 296).
then, soon thereafter, we get more and more evidence that WY's physical body might be starting to deteriorate.
in the donghua adaptation (s5, ep. 11) of manhua ch. 305, the animators added in a shot of WY's bloodied toothbrush:
and after WY's first fight against Chen Jinkui (manhua chs. 374-378), we see the beginning of his strange symptomatology.
he gets a rash, that then disappears right before the doctor's eyes when he goes to the hospital.
upon returning briefly to Wudang (manhua ch. 404), his grandmaster notices as well.
then, when CJK attacks him again (manhua chs. 411-412), WY spits blood and starts bleeding from his nose...
...which ultimately results in him passing out.
and when WY wakes up on the remote island that CJK whisked him away to (manhua ch. 413), CJK tells him that he had a doctor friend run a bunch of tests on WY. except... the results were always very bizarre. he could test positive and be diagnosed with any number of things—and then immediately be perfectly healthy when they ran the tests again.
in short, something very strange is happening to WY's body.
(we learn he passes out again while escaping the island in manhua ch. 512 as well.)
but the kicker comes in manhua ch. 541, when we see WY holding some CT scans of what seem to be his own lungs.
it's different this time. despite trying two different hospitals and doctors, the results are the same. WY's symptoms are that of lung cancer.
that, finally, brings us to the most recent chapters (ch. 675)... where many cnetz have commented that WY looks exceptionally worn-out.
i'm not sure what the conclusion of this will be, though this cnetz here has some very cool theories. undoubtedly, though, using Feng-hou Qimen is negatively affecting WY's health.
so all i can say is... i really hope WY doesn't die.
What were the hints or foreshadowing moments in the show that led to Jordan and Layla’s engagement?
ha! uhhh some of these are just spec and some are actual hints but....
Layla's in white when Jordans talking about true love and endgame in 307... idk
Layla being there when Jordan and Asher are bringing up their best men pact in 318.
Jordan having dinner with Layla and her dad and the seasons of dating conversations in 412... not marriage but certainly foreshadowing something very, very serious.
but then yes, s5 is full of them!
502, Jordan tells Spencer not every hookup leads to marriage.
503, her dress montage paralleled with grace's and Jordan's "that's the one" ummmmm excuse me. also the dress is like champagne and super close to off white
504, holding hands during the ring exchange during the ceremony
508, Laura's story about billy's proposal keeps cutting back to jordayla and then their handhold frames the Laura/billy's embracing silhouette.
511, Billy gives Layla his "approval." Very father's blessing of him
513, lil Layla talking about her wedding dress. Then cut to Olivia waking jordayla up, looking every bit the married couple. they had the dynamic of a married couple the entire ep
514, Jordan says "engagement" and kisses her left hand right before Layla says she loves him
518, a def "in sickness and in health" ep
520, Jordan admitting she was his first crush and wished for them to end up together. and then everything he's saying in favor of Asher proposing is referencing them.
so in treasure hunt eddie wasn't interested in finding the treasure, why did he suddenly offer to team up with buck?
Hi Nonnie! Thank you for the ask.
I think that moment is one of those that can be played for a double meaning on a show that toys with whether two people will or won't get together. There's the general answer and the ship answer. So the general answer is a comedic one, implying no matter how hard some people protest, when the chance at an actual treasure arises, eventually everyone wants in on the action. That one's not about Eddie, it's a part of what constitutes the comedy in 412. But then there's the ship answer (which is also more character specific). Eddie might not be interested in the treasure, but he saw that Buck was, and he wanted to get to do the hunt with his best friend slash soulmate. Or in other words, the real treasure was Buck all along. ;) Or at least Eddie having fun times with him.
The ep doesn't specify the "real" answer so it can walk the line of implying both things for people, depending on which they wanna see.
I hope that this answer helps? Have a great day! As always, here's my ask tag. xoxox
