#i drop it like a hot potato

[eulaliasims]

so, uhhhh, new hood just dropped.

Welcome to Veridia!

I'm going to make some posts showing off the lots and Veridia's inhabitants. If you're not into historical-flavored games, go ahead and add 'Eulalia: Veridia' to your blocklist and I'll see you when I inevitably bounce back into Middleground!

Ages ago I was messing around with my medieval CC folder and was like, 'what if I make an iron age neighborhood?', and then it morphed into being inspired by Iron Age Britain specifically. Heavy emphasis on the inspired. (Also, I hate building roundhouses in this game.) So I'm pretty sure at this point it's just 'generic medieval'. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ oh well.

Anyway, this is actually pretty different from how I normally play. I'm actually having to balance taking care of sims' needs and their wants. There's a lot of Sun & Moon sets I'm learning to use, but we'll see how in depth the trade economy gets, lmao. Veridia also is a lot smaller than Middleground—just seven households, plus four townies in each age group.

I have a headcanon that Jax doesn't like being alone- for himself or anyone else- and that's why he suggested Caine create an adventure for Pomni, and later, that they go find something to eat, since those activities would likely keep people together. It could also be why he made sure Gangle and Kinger would stick together, and hid with them after Kaufmo abstracted.

I have a few more reasons for this hc, but I'm not good with words and this already feels clunky to me, so I'm leaving it off here.

(ps I keep reading your name to the tune of 'go go power rangers'. It's not relevant at all but I thought you should know.)

Oh, I enjoy this! I can totally see Jax trying really hard to pull strings as subtly as possible to make sure people aren't alone.

I bet Zooble is always the hardest to convince to be amongst the others, it's probably why Jax was in no hurry to "save them" from the gloinks to cos those humanoid hashbrowns are from Caine's homebrew adventures, so they should be relatively harmless and a cause for mild inconvenience (which would mean Zooble'll be too busy to be in existential dread even if they were alone).

Also, I think it's neat that Pomni got sandwiched between Ragatha and Jax's two opposing attitudes during their breif walk to Kaufmo's room.

Ragatha likes to see the bright side of things or say positive remarks just to avoid the darker side of a conversation. While Jax, on the other hand, just teases Pomni for thinking her situation is still just a dream. It's like a healthy dose of "Technically, this might be shit for you if you're this shocked, kinda funny tho." and "You'll be okay... Probably, Certainly." (I didn't even realize my name had the same syllables as 'go go power rangers, I can't unhear it thank you for this blessed infernal knowlegde)

know that if you're gonna be friends or more with astarion he will always support your rights and (especially) wrongs, yes he will tell you when you're being stupid, point out when you've made a mistake, when you're overdoing it, when he disagrees with your decisions etc., but on the flipside, he will always praise you, compliment you and encourage you to be you, whatever that looks like, he's so ride or die actually

What am I gonna do when croissant finishes the game their journey... TT_TT I don't wanna say goodbye to them!!

I don't know buddy I've been wondering the same thing :') Let's not think about it-

It’s honestly really disappointing to see Alicent stans completely abandon her as a character just because their own personal headcanon about her sexuality doesn’t match up with the story being told. It feels like none of these people ever even tried to dig below the surface level of Alicent (and Rhaenyra, but that’s a whole other can of worms), they just watered her down to her sadness and being in love with Rhaenyra, and I feel like that’s such an injustice to the character, because she has so many levels to her that most people don’t seem to want to explore at all.

I thought I’d take a peek in the Klave channel on the off chance there was maybe a Dave scene but I’m getting the impression that the season was generally disappointing. It kinda makes me want to give it a watch just to see what happened…

[communicationnskills]

Sometimes I think the show forgets that Lucy was like... kidnapped by a serial killer and buried alive, and died? And that her best friend that she lived with got murdered? And that her parents don’t approve of her career or life choices so she doesn’t even technically have blood family around? And that she’s also been through like a hundred other things that never get brought up again? Yeah, I think about this a lot

I haven't really spoken about this with everything else going on, but it's been on my mind.

As a massive LPOTL fan, it was genuinely heartbreaking and disappointing to hear the news about Ben and what his girlfriend endured. When you listen to the episodes close to his departure, it's incredibly clear he's not fully present, and has lost a lot of his charm from earlier in the show. I hope his stint in rehab helps him find peace, and that Taylor finds safety and security going forward.

That being said, I am so glad Marcus and Henry decided to drop him from the show and the network as a whole. It was absolutely the right choice. It might not have been the safe decision, and definitely not the easy one. But it was correct. I am really enjoying Ed as the third host and I really hope they keep him full-time.
