Ask compilation: I'm Starting To Think That This Drow Guy Is Kind Of An Asshole Edition.
Probably a Ranger in the hunter subclass. I actually intended to multi-class him as fighter/ranger at some point and make that his official class, but I haven't had time/quite figured out the best build that would still suit him - Ranger makes a LOT of sense with his backstory, arguably more than fighter, but he's still supposed to be a magic-less brick-house with 19 strength who hasn't handled a bow and arrow in 10 years, so I'm not sure where that leaves us LOL
A lot of people have suggested that Berserk Barbarian would fit him well, but I think that implies a lot of other characteristics that do NOT suit him at all so š¤·
HE DIDN'T EVEN GO TO THE CRECHE, and honestly it made the game feel much more immersive to pick one path and stick to it like Halsin suggested, even if I did have to endure the shadow cursed lands without the shiny mace š
Probably for the best, it'd be a real shame if the story ended there just because he didn't like Vlaakith's attitude.
But yeah Lae'zel (who, for the record, I adore) never stood a chance in his playthrough. Sorry baby girl.
I'm either uninformed or we have different definitions of what constitutes a crush, but sure I'll play in this space LOL
He's both jealous but also kind of aloof when it comes to things like that. It's yet another symptom of his arrogance, where it seems unfathomable that anyone who has him would be genuinely tempted by someone else. He doesn't mind a normal amount of glance-stealing and flattery, even playful flirting to a degree, but if there's persistence or if his partner seems to seek another person out for things he thinks he should be providing, he feels threatened.
Also, he has a difficult time discerning that "deep emotional connection" does not equal "romantic interest". So, at least immediately after the events of the game, he's more likely to be made insecure by his partners forming deep bonds with others than any throwaway expression of physical desire or fleeting infatuation.
[MORE UNDER THE CUT]
Let me preface this with the (hopefully unnecessary) disclaimer that this murderous dark-elf's opinions are not my own, and that I very much purposefully made a bit of an asshole character because I find that entertaining.
And now that you're hopefully primed for what's coming - DU drow is pretty damn judgemental of people's looks save for the rare times when they give him a good impression right off the bat. He notes people's appearances and makes preemptive assumptions about them without even realizing it. He definitely does not equal beauty to value or prowess (in fact he will very much still mock of you if you seem too concerned with your appearance) but he does prescribe things based on looks.
I don't think he'd take issue with what you're describing, It sounds like a pretty average body, but he would assume that person is weaker and less fit to "keep up with him", basically. Which kind of diminishes interest.
As far as to what he finds immediately attractive, he definitely prefers people who seem physically fit (not more than himself though - gods forbid). But, the caveat to this whole tangent is that once you get past initial impressions, he could definitely come to be sexually attracted to pretty much any type of body attached to the person he's in love with.
Thank you! There was no main event, just the building up of resentment over time and the opportunity she saw opening up when the Chosen's plan came into motion. She definitely didn't always hate him though, they had a fairly close relationship until his obsessive behavior and arrogance became an issue.
Thank you!!!
They call him the/that drow, dark elf, or "big drow" if there's more than one present. In private they might facetiously call him Bhaalspawn if they get tired of referring to him by race.
I'll be honest, I forgot whether or not I found it in his playthrough LOL but if he did stumble across that would be VERY funny. He'd be like "look at these idiots and their fake murder god. What kind of dimwit would worship carnage as a religion. Hey Shadowheart get a load of this-"
HAPPY YOU ENJOY HIM! I think his unique situation overall with having been such a overwhelmingly horrid person and forgetting all about it is my favorite bit. That's kind of vague, I know, but I often think of dreams I've had where I committed a crime or did something horrible, and that immediate feeling of relief and disconnect that follows immediately after waking up. That's kind of what I imagine it's like for him - he knows of the things he did, but he doesn't really. In theory it's all true but that's a truth far too fantastical for anyone to conceptualize even if it's put right in front of your face.
That, tackling the guilt (or lack thereof) of something you genuinely don't feel like you've done and the intricacies of it, that's a fascinating state of mind to explore. I love how many directions you can take that.
For me, having a character who is not good, but is not necessarily pure unadulterated evil, makes for a lot of complex thought experiments and contradictory values. DU drow has a lot of those - things he believes and abides by absolutely except for this specific instance, being contradictory is a pillar of his character and it can be a little challenging to keep up with it - but I'd be lying if I said I don't deeply enjoy that aspect as well all the same.
THANK YOUUUU It took me so long to figure out how to draw Astarion in a way I liked, I'm so relieved that others enjoy it too š
Shockingly he did succeed it and was immediately put-off by it, lmao. They wouldn't really develop much of a relationship for a while after that, so at that point DU drow just figured he was trying to get something from him and wrote him off, much as he did with everyone else with the exception of Shadowheart.
He didn't meet her at the Tiefling grove! I didn't even know you could meet her before-hand for the longest time. But he did super, duper kill her at camp of course.
He managed to hide the body and everyone else was none the wiser, huge blood bhaal-sigil on the ground aside lmao. He was a little shocked but didn't feel all that bad about it, kind of resigning to that primal feeling of satisfaction at a job-well-done that overwhelmed him instead. He decided she was too weak to survive out there and he had just spared her the trouble.

Hiš Can you please do the NSFW Alphabet with Arthur Harrow?š„ Sorry I forgot to put it in your request boxš Xx
A = Aftercare (what theyāre like after sex):
He's a big softie after sex. He'll wipe you down and and cuddle you, whispering sweet nothings in your ear. Maybe even give you a massage if he was a little rough. Kisses you all over.
B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partnerās):
Not horny but he likes his forearms, specifically the scales, because it shows his "worth" to Ammit.
He loves every part of you so it's hard to decide. If he had to pick it would be your hands. He loves holding them and tracing your fingers, kissing each fingertip, and placing your hand on his face to cradle him.
C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically):
He cums a normal amount. Although he has a dirty habit of rubbing it all over you after he finishes because it's like "marking" you as his.

Totally wants to fuck you in front of the entire cult. Wants to show you off and show everybody how perfect you are for him.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.):
Very well groomed. He takes his hygiene very seriously.
I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect):
He's very romantic and serious. He'll be a little silly at the beginning, but that will fade the longer you two are at it.
J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon):
He doesn't masturbate often. Would rather have you do it for him or just have sex. He's too busy to deal with those urges.
K = Kink (one or more of their kinks):
Exhibition. He loves when someone walks in on you and he has the secret urge to take you in front of everyone to show you off.
L = Location (favorite places to do the do):
The bedroom. He's a simple man with simple pleasures.
M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going):
Anything you do, really. He's severely touch-starved so simply kissing his cheek or hugging him will get him going.
N = No (something they wouldnāt do, turn offs):
Hurt you. He hurt enough people in his past and would adamantly refuse to hurt you in any way.
O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.):
Prefers giving. Likes to worship you and show his love and devotion to you that way.
P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.):
Prefers to be slow and sensual. He prefers making love as opposed to fucking. He just wants gentle and softness in his life.
Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.):
Rarely would like a quickie. Would rather spend the time in a intimate setting with you where he can take his time with you.
R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.):
Normally, no, but he secretly wants to have people watch how well he makes love to you. Wants to show you off and relish in the envy of others.
S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?):
He could probably do about two long rounds.
T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?):
He doesn't like toys because he can get jealous. Wants to be the only thing and only one to give you pleasure.
U = Unfair (how much they like to tease):
He might tease a small amount when you first begin, but becomes quiet serious afterwards. He would usually tease throughout the day, but that's about it.
V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.):
He's usually a talker in bed. He mutters sweet nothings in your ear the entire time, sweet talking enough to make you blush, and will have soft groans and moans. Prefers to have you screaming in bliss.
W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character):
He definitely likes to buy you gifts. wants to dress you up in the finest clothes and gems. Just pamper you as much as possible to show his love.
X = X-ray (letās see whatās going on under those clothes):
He's about average, 6 inches, and with enough girth to make you breathless. Leaks precum the second he gets aroused.
Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?):
Very much yearns for you constantly. Wants even the simplest touch from you. He has a lot of time to make up for and he wants to spend as much time as possible with you in bed.
Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards):
Makes sure you are okay and that you have everything you need. Watches over you for a bit before falling asleep. Is a very light sleeper so every move you make wakes him up but he'll just drag you closer and cuddle.

BEHIND THE SCENES DETAILS
ā”A PART TWO TO THIS POSTā¬
Continued below the cut cause I continue not to be normal about it.
CASINO HEIST
The only room in the starlight I didn't get to feature was the morgue- located directly behind the basement pool room. I was flying around in TAB mode and I jumpscared the hell out of myself when this townie was tending this 'bar' alone in this room like the blair witch project.
Tiny out of frame sink so poppy can brush her teeth here.
OFF TOPIC: In that same vein, whenever I want to have a 'meeting' with my sims, I place a tiny TOOL'ed down TV behind the speaker's head and have them all watch it.
I posed out a face for Val but the height slider was contorting it in a way i hated so I just said fuck it. When I unpaused he made the best in game face immediately after and I'm obsessed with it. It was perfect and he got a gold star for that. Sometimes the sims surprises me.
The elevator on the top floor of the Starlight is only 1x2 tiles, so I had to greenscreen in a fake elevator interior, which is why the reflections don't match up š
I actually shot the whole elevator scene in a floating copy in the basement.
Before and After. This effect is called Frozen_Child_Head btw.
When @doctorsimcraft built Senga's office, she referenced the IRL manager's office at Binion's Casino. The upside down horseshoe above the desk letting you know that this is the place your luck finally runs out.
This fight took me 3 weeks to pose out and get looking decent in game because of the extreme height difference between Henry and Poppy. I still hate it.
Glass Onion Reference.
I had around 50 effects players running for the final fight. Turns out if you do this and you go into CAS or BB even once your game will become basically non responsive. I quit out and reloaded an upsetting amount of times to get this scene shot.
The Flooded Version of the Vault was shot on a different lot using the pond tool trick and lowering the floor down one platform height to get the illusion of the room being flooded with pool water.
Tiny Alejandro.
Before and After.
Chad in the mirror!
The little handcuff hold!!!
Real Lucky there was a ginger officer on staff that day huh Val
Sade's Old Room.
I'll try to do another one of these when we finish Gen 6! Someday. lol Hope it was interesting!

The most amount of Headcannons I've ever wrote for a single character!!! Guess my favourite Ghostbuster lol, I love Egon šš
Caregiver!Egon Spengler Headcannons
He's a very neutral individual overall, he can easily be misunderstood and seen as rude or uninterested but he does care a lot.
I feel like the most likely situation for him finding out about your regression is if you didn't tell him yourself is that he found out during a particularly long night in the lab. You being tired had regressed and he had his suspicions from there.
Him becoming your Caregiver was never something actually verbalised, more just a responsibility he was happy to take on and the two of you went from there.
Egon is big on praise, he knows he's not always the most affectionate (although that's not to say never) however he doesn't want you to believe he doesn't care, he makes sure you know how proud of you he is and how amazing you are doing!!!
I think he'd have a tangle toy in his desk (if you guys are at the fire station) or in his pocket if elsewhere for you (and himself)
Watching TV (movies or shows) are a fun activity for the two of you as it doesn't require talking but you guys can if you want to. - he also enjoys reading be that him reading to you, you reading to him or the two of you individually reading in the same area <333
Egon really enjoys being your Caregiver. It allows for him to de-stress from his very chaotic job/life.
As I previously said he really enjoys reading, his voice is very calming and it isn't out of the ordinary for you to fall asleep listening to him read or just talk about something he's currently analysing.
He got the two of you small matching rabbit plushies. You absolutely love yours, keeping it with you always. (Egon also always has his own on him, it's in his pocket. It got slimed once whilst he was on the job.. he was not happy in the process of it being cleaned, no one knew why you were the only one he wasn't being subtly (not subtle at all) grumpy towards)
He often lets you sit with him whilst he works on experiments, he has a box of crayons for you to use - or you can watch him work on his experiments.
No touching anything to do with an experiment. A joke that Peter came up with was "if you can't pronounce it, don't touch it" ..that motto ended up sticking around for everyone in the end. It became a rule for all of them, it not surprisingly stopped quite a few accidents.
He has let you use his jacket as a blanket.
He really likes doing little things for you such as tying your shoe laces or brushing your hair.
With how popular the Ghostbusters became lots of merchandise was made by different people. Egon ends up surprising you with a little Ghostbusters badge.
You gained the nickname of "Mini Ghostbuster"
He is terrible at going to sleep, he is normally quite good at making sure you're okay and getting the stuff you need to thrive (an actual healthy amount of hours of sleep.)
Speaking of making sure you're safe he is very protective over you, even if people don't realise. He's extremely aware of how dangerous his job is and is not willing to let anything happen to you.
He would have a reward chart for you!!!
He does have a habit of sometimes over complicating things. If he ends up confusing you he will try to explain in a better way for you to understand.
He likes telling jokes but he has quite a dry sense of humour. He tries- He's not at all offended though if you don't understand or find those jokes funny. He ends up making it into a sort of game to see who has the best jokes. You win. Everytime.
His go to for a babysitter is Janine. He trusts the others but Janine is typically away from well, most of the ghost danger and so when Egon is out busting ghosts you get to stay with her which is always fun. She would so spoil you!!!
^ She would make a sensory bin that's under her desk, it has a bunch of fidget toys, and other little toys to keep you entertained. It also has a sensory cube that she made you.
I think that he'd actually be pretty bad with keeping you from eating too many sweets. He has a sweet tooth- š marshmallows though.. they are funnily enough off the table.. along with jelly/jello...š¬
He would enjoy doing those kids science kits with you!!!
^ Enjoys learning related games for you. Think like numbered or lettered wooden blocks.
He doesn't share food with anyone that isn't you by the way- :D
I think he'd be really good at getting you to settle down for bed.
He got you some chewalry. He makes sure you have it on you always. (If you end up forgetting it's okay because he didn't and he's got it in his pocket for you!!!)
I cannot see him being able to cook - at least not well š
When he does act affectionately it's normally away from anyone else. He gives amazing hugs š« ā His cuddles are so comforting!!! <333
^ In public/around others he doesn't show as much physical affection, although he isn't against it if you'd like it. He typically sticks to linking pinky fingers!!!
^ He likes ruffling your hair, if you end up huffing at him because he "ruined your hair" he will find it even more amusing.
Forehead kisses <333
He's good at comforting you when it comes to nightmares.
Documentaries are often left playing in the background.
You could so convince him to have a tea party with you!!!
He'd be so patient with you!!!
I don't think he'd be overly strict. He'd be strict enough to keep you safe but other than that- pretty sure Peter and Ray get told off by him (a lot) more than you would- š

welcome to...starleska's f/o round-up 2023! š„³š„³š„³
below the cut is every single character i've had a crush on in 2023...and there are 30 in total!! šš these are given in chronological order of fixation, and they are all new crushes (so re-entering a fixation for a character i've simped for previously doesn't count š) now be warned, this is a genuinely unhinged list. they are largely villains. one is a mushroom. one is a vehicle. one is a casino-themed duck-shaped robot. my autism is indiscriminate in the characters it fixates on, and they are all suitably embarrassing šš without further ado, here we go...
1. James the Red Engine | Thomas the Tank Engine
...shut up šš at the start of this year i truly lost my mind and fell headfirst into the Thomas the Tank Engine fandom (everyone there is so lovely and creative!!)...and of course, the vain train is my favourite šš James is cute okay!! i don't need to justify myself!!! 2. 'Big' Jack Horner | Puss in Boots: The Last Wish
there's no way anyone missed this one - we are quite the tight-knit and dedicated group in the 'Big' Jack Horner fandom š³š come on, look at him...a huge, powerful, obsessive, fancy-bastard collector with an affinity for magic??? he's stunning š„“š i made so many lovely friends through gushing about this horrible man!!! we had so much fun making OCs to ship with him š one of the most intense fixations i've had all year, and one of the best villains we've seen in years...he is fantastic š„° 3. Pizzahead | Pizza Tower
i don't know what's in the water of Pizza Tower but it's impossible to be normal about any character you like from that game šš of course the evil sentient pizza slice took the top spot, he's so cartoony and ridiculous!!! the amount of power he exerts is also quite the draw š¤š i'm not gonna lie there's a couple other characters from this game i may get into later...we'll see š 4. Fingers | Dead End: Paranormal Park
have you heard this guy's voice. can you blame me. deliciously evil fruity monstrosity with supernatural powers? sign me up to whatever sinister scheme Fingers has going on now or in the future šš he hits a lot of boxes...between the cabaret-style makeup, the posh, dismissive and manipulative personality and the inexplicable Eldritch body, he was always gonna be a crush š¤ 5. M.O.D.O.K. | Marvel
wheeze okay, this was originally a JOKE!!! @thelighttasteslikelasagna sent in this message joking that i look like i'd find M.O.D.O.K. hot, and i was really angry about it for five minutes...and then i discovered the stop-motion cartoon where he's exactly the kind of cringefail malewife villain i enjoy (in the Augustus St. Cloud vein), and the rest is history šš definitely one of the silliest crushes i had this year, but he holds a special place in my heart :3c 6. Gargamel | The Smurfs
nah man i was on some serious mental illness at the start of this year š i just can't help it when bad guys are like this, alright!!! Hank Azaria's performance as Gargamel is sooo silly and over-the-top, i couldn't help but love every second he was on screen šš Gargamel's just a whole lot of fun!!! who doesn't love a magic-wielding freak hellbent on the destruction of a group of little creatures?? (i cannot and will not be taking any questions at this time š¶) 7. Wally Darling | Welcome Home
my God, the Wally Darling fixation hit the entire Internet like a train š¤š soft-voiced, ambiguously-moraled rizz puppet that he is, how could we not all fall head-over-heels? i have to thank this guy for throwing me headfirst back into fanfic writing, as the whole Welcome Home story really inspired me...not to mention all the lovely folks who wanted to imagine different ways of getting to hold Wally's hand š„° hooray for our pretty puppet boy!! 8. Killa Harkan | John Wick: Chapter 4
...yes, i know, it's funny that Killa's the first of two cartoonishly evil German-accented bad guys with sleight of hand tricks and gold teeth on the list this year šš sitting in the cinema, the second he opened his mouth my partner just turned and stared at me, because they knew. i refuse to apologise for appreciating a really awful bastard - especially one who dresses so sharply š 9. Ian Hawke | Alvin and the Chipmunks
yet another member of the 'it started off as a joke...' club š¤š listen, Ian serves!!! we can't resist a smarmy music producer/manage type, can we? Ian's in the same camp as Gargamel for being a deeply evil man whose capacity for doing harm is directed at little creatures. all i'm saying is, he can sign me up for a dodgy deal any day š„“ 10. Myc Cellium | Inside Job
i can't tell if it's my monsterfucker tendencies or my consummate attraction to Brett Gelman but the crass sentient mushroom got me down bad šš he's just such a menace!! he's got that intoxicating combo of being horribly socially inappropriate and an actual outcast...fellas, Myc was fixation bait for me š 11. Klaus Kickenklober | Sing 2
i don't care if you think you're not a furry, someone can and will get you from the Sing franchise, and that is a threat šš yesss laugh it up, Star's got another stern and vaguely European cartoon villain added to the list š i just find Klaus so impossibly delightful!!! he'd be a terrible teacher to have in real life, but in fiction, i think i could fix him :3c 12. The Spot | Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
ohoho, i know you guys were living for The Spot fixation because i remember your reaction to the x Readers š look at him and his incredible design!!! the transformation of The Spot from weak laughable villain to reality-bending monstrosity had me by the throat...and i can't wait to see more of him when the next Spider-Verse drops š 13. Mad Mod | Teen Titans
MAD. BLOODY. MOD!!!!! i think our favourite British bastard has to take the crown (literally and figuratively) as my strongest fixation out of the whole of 2023, i lost my mind over this guy. he just consumed my every waking thought!!! š the style, the voice, the unbelievable engineering skill...Mad Mod is one of those once-in-a-lifetime f/os that you know you'll be obsessed with for a very long time š³š i look back so fondly on those wonderful few months of Mad Mod fandom resurgence, and how that still continues today...here's hoping even more people find out about him and develop their own crushes š shout-out to the lovely @iriso-page who suggested him and Music Meister to me šš
14. Control Freak | Teen Titans
sdfgdf okay back on form with the fat dweebs, i know, i know!!!! my ravenous Mad Mod fixation wasn't enough to ignore Control Freak, one of the most delightfully stupid villains in Teen Titans...!!! he hits all my buttons (ha!) and i genuinely think his design and powers are kind of epic. would love to see him utilised in the future š (i am never beating the Discord kitten allegations...) 15. Ken | Barbie
well, this particular blond himbo was quite the surprise!! š¤š i'm not usually the one to go for such a stereotypical hottie, but Ryan Gosling plays Ken as so unhinged and...off for the whole movie, he activated the same neurons which come with the weirdest of my crushes šš Ken's a misguided sweetheart and i'd love to help him feel a little bit wanted;;; 16. Buck Ruffler the Duck Shuffler | Toontown: Corporate Clash
fell into the wonderful world of Toontown: Corporate Clash and imprinted on this fucker like...well, like a baby duck šš is this not the most spectacular design for an original Cog you've ever seen?! i love that Buck is an absolutely scrambled robot with a gambling addiction, and i think he'd be lovely (and hilarious) company š„°
17. Barnaby | Billie Bust Up
ohhhh yesssss Billie Bust Up caught my attention with this sinister goofball!!!! fancy, flamboyant and very into murder...Barnaby has all the traits for any Tumblr Sexyman, and i cannot wait for the full game to drop so we can see even more of him š
18. The Mad Hatter/Jervis Tetch | Batman
Jervis Tetch my beloved!! this has been the year of fancy blonds in top-hats, as well as deeply silly hypnotists, and Jervis kicked off this trend with a bang šš i'm a Mad Hatter fan generally but B:TAS Jervis is a special kind of pretty stalker, and that voice is delicious š„“ thanks to him for kicking off an Alice in Wonderland fixation and for finally getting me into drinking tea...the things we do for our crushes, eh? š„° 19. Music Meister/Darius Chapel | Batman
and here is the first character played by Neil Patrick Harris who made it onto this year's list!!! šš another camp, theatrical Batman villain to add to my collection...gorgeous voice, such an immense sense of style, and wonderfully good fun!! i think more people should get a little obsessed with the Music Meister š 20. Buggy the Clown | One Piece
none of you can judge me for this one - i remember all the TikTok edits!!! šš Buggy is pathetic and so much fun - i wasn't expecting to enjoy him as much as i did!! although my fixation for him may have been short-lived, my love for him certainly isn't š„° 21. Pat Butcher | BBC Ghosts
ohhhh, every now and again a little sweetheart will get me right in the feelings, and Pat Butcher is added proudly to my f/o collection as the second Yorkshireman (next to Salad Fingers š). i just love what an upbeat, lovely man he is!! he's so soft and warm to everyone he meets and tries his best to do everything right by his friends...i'd love to cuddle with him š„ŗ 22. Josh Levy | The Eltingville Club
a classic return to form with Josh Levy, Ć la Comic Book Guy and Control Freak...really telling on myself by collecting these horrible greasy nerds who would 100% call me something derogatory if i tried to talk to them š i appreciate every last one of The Eltingville Club but Josh, as a failed writer who remains just as toxic as he was when he was a teen, is my undisputed favourite šš 23. Swan | Phantom of the Paradise
oh God, reawakening my crush on Paul Williams by discovering Swan damn near killed me!!!! šš i was so obsessed with this man as a kid and the moment i saw him as Swan in POTP i felt intense attraction and gender envy in equal parts;;;; Swan's whole aesthetic and demeaning, inhuman approach to people is impossibly sensual, and i can't overstate enough how little evil dudes in tinted shades will always get me down bad šš 24. Kinger | The Amazing Digital Circus
my love for Kinger was such a pleasant surprise!! š¤š sweet, anxious fella that he is, all i want to do is get him out of that digital hellscape and ensure he can wrap up in as many blankets as he likes!!! i love his always-on-the-edge-of-a-breakdown portrayal and am so eager to learn more about him and his backstory š 25. Peter Gregory | Silicon Valley
ahhh, kicking it the old-fashioned way by getting extremely invested in the most autistic character on the show (and that's saying something, given the high neurodivergent coding of everyone in Silicon Valley šš). Peter's style and methods of communication are traits i simply find attractive in real life, and although he sadly wasn't with us long, he absolutely stole the show āØ 26. 'Action' Jack Barker | Silicon Valley
given my love of nerds it's no shocker that Silicon Valley hit me with two f/os, and 'Action' Jack Barker - the tech-field Colin Robinson - was a surefire entry š³š what is it about these milquetoast men who are so whitebread yet are capable of such terrible things which gets me every time?! Jack is such a fun character and i'm glad we got as much of him as we did š 27. Avery | PokĆ©mon: Sword and Shield
i cannot believe none of you guys told me about Avery, the most amazingly dressed character i've ever seen in the whole of PokĆ©mon šš shhhh he is so very pretty and petty and his powers are incredibly cool. i just love everything about him and would delight in helping him develop a real sense of self-esteem, because he does not deserve the dismissal he receives from his family šš 28. Matthew Patel | Scott Pilgrim
oh my God, heart in my MOUTH seeing Matthew Patel get the glow-up villain arc he so desperately deserved!!!!! šššš Matthew is just the epitome of style and power in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, and it was so fantastic getting to see him grow as a character and get self-actualised. plus his fight scenes were some of the coolest things i've ever seen. Matthew can i have your number please š„ŗ 29. The Toymaker | Doctor Who
!!!!!!!!!! i don't know if you guys can tell, but i really love the Toymaker...and even predicted that he'd completely consume my mind months before we got The Giggle šš e v e r y t h i n g about him just gets me so bad. his reality-bending, his teasing attitude, his ridiculous accents, his gorgeous costumes, his emotional inconsistency, his tragic backstory...god, if i so much as look at him smiling i melt š„“š characters played by Neil Patrick Harris really get me!! i'm so proud to be modding a server dedicated to the Toymaker now, and have met so many brilliant, wonderful friends through him and falling back into Doctor Who!!! i think we're all going to be brainrotting over him for quite some time šš 30. Dr Mark Fry | Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget
Dr Fry, rushing in at the finish line!!! š¤ the second my pals saw this guys they were all spamming me, begging me to watch Dawn of the Nugget!!! and ooooh i was noooot prepared for the specific brand of soft creepy genius he is š even if they'd played Dr Fry purely as your run-of-the-mill mad scientist he would've gotten me bad, but they just had to make him equal parts freaky and brilliant with just a touch of arrogance, didn't they?? Melisha scored well š¤¤ (also, three whole Yorkshiremen in my collection now!! is it the accent? š) aaaaand that's everyone!!! phew, is anyone else out of breath? š„µ what a wonderful, silly year of fixations this has been š¤š thank you all for being here, brainrotting happily alongside me for some of these characters, and for all the other characters you love!!! i hope 2024 is awesome to you, and that many more fictional characters are around the corner, ready to make you smile š

ohohoho... In a hoarse whisper, āFuck, youāre killing me here.ā jaydick yeaaaaboiiii
iiii went a little overboard on this šit ended up over 7k, so i won't b posting the whole thing here, but have a preview ;)
(editing to add as a warning/heads up: jason is trans here, and i use both male (cock/dick for clit) and female (cunt) terms for his genitals <3)
>> six little deaths <<
āFuck, little wing, youāre killing me here.ā Dickās hoarse whisper makes Jason smirk. He settles back against Dickās chest, popping another kernel of popcorn in his mouth, making sure to wiggle his hips a little as he does.
The hot, hard length of Dickās cock presses into Jasonās ass through his thin, cotton shorts. It makes a thrill rise in Jasonās belly, knowing he has such an effect on Dick.
Cook, suave, charming Dick. Everyone wants him. Butāright now at leastāhe wants Jason.
The thrill is sweeter knowing Dick wonāt do anything. Canāt, not with Bruce sitting in a recliner half a couch away.
He feels Dickās slow, hissing breath. Smirks to himself, and then raises his fingers, sticking them in his mouth to clean the butter and salt from them.
Dick grips his hips tight enough to bruise.
Jason chances looking at him, fingers still in his mouth, and finds those normally electric blue eyes dark and stormy. His thighs clench.
Dick grabs his wrist. Jason doesnāt resist as Dick pulls his fingers from his mouth. The look on his faceā Jason half expects him to kiss him, Bruce be damned. His pulse is a staccato beat in his chest.
Dick doesnāt kiss him. Instead, his lips brush Jasonās ear, and in a voice thick with promise, he whispers, āYouāre going to pay for this later.ā
Jason shudders, head to toe, skin going tight and prickly. Fuck, yes, please. Dick is always the perfect amount of meanāthatās half of why Jason likes working him up so much.
The other half is being at the center of his attention.
Jason rocks his hips, relishing in the shocked, almost pained gasp he gets. āIām counting on it.ā
Dick growls. Under the blanket, he grinds the heel of his palm over Jasonās groin, and Jason gasps before he can help himself, bucking up into that hand as sparks light up his veins.
āBoys.ā Bruceās deep, commanding voice makes Jason shudder again; red staining his cheeks. For half a moment, he thinks theyāve gotten caught, but then Bruce just says, āDonāt make me separate you. You can get through a movie without fighting.ā
āSorry, Bruce,ā Dick says. He doesnāt sound very sorry at all. āWeāll be good.ā
He splays his hand over Jasonās bellyāa possessive, proprietary move that already has Jason tremblingāand presses, a steady, even pressure that makes him want to squirm.
Conscious of Bruceās attention though, he doesnāt. Instead, he just takes it; breaths getting faster, deeper, until heās nearly panting. Dickās hot length against his ass is starting to feel less funny and more taunting.
How much longer is left in the movie? Jason stopped paying attention somewhere around the first fifteen minutes. He tries to focus on it now, ignoring the way his underwear has grown sticky with his arousal. Itās hard to focus, butābased on the music, the snippets of dialogueā¦ theyāve got to be getting close to the end, right?
Dick rubs his belly a littleāJason bites his lip to trap his moan. A little of it sneaks it out anyway, a soft, āNnn,ā that makes Dick shiver under him, and press a smile against Jasonās shoulder.
It would be an asshole move to excuse himself to the bathroom, wouldnāt it? He wouldnāt like, touch himself or anythingāitās tempting, but. Dick can be kind of a sadist, and thatās fun, but heās already in enough trouble for starting this shit in the first place. Getting himself off without Dickās permission is just asking for worse, and Jasonās got stuff to do tomorrow.
But he would like to step away for a second. Just a second, so he can catch his breath and not give up the game before theyāve even gotten started. If he leaves, though, then all Dick will have is a blanket to protect his bulge from Bruceās eyeā¦
āCourse, thatāll be a problem either way, wonāt it? Theyāll have to get up and go to bed eventually, so. That would at least give Dick a chance to figure something out. So really Jason would be doing him a favor, right?
Right.
Jason squirms a little, and then says, āI gotta pee.ā
āDo you want me to pause the movie?ā Bruce asks.
āUm. No, I wonāt be gone that long, and uh. Iāve seen this one before.ā He hasnāt. Dick lets him go, although the brief look they exchange before Jason scampers out of the room tells him Dick is more than aware of Jasonās fib.
Jasonās little wink probably didnāt help matters, but. Oh well.
In the bathroom, Jason washes his face with cool water before sitting on the closed toilet and getting his phone out. He checks his emailāsome review bloggers he follows have posted new reviews, thereās an author newsletter, and oh! One of his favorite fic authors posted something new. He opens that to read laterātomorrow, probably, although itās short enoughā¦
No.
Heās already pushing. Donāt borrow trouble, Mama used to say, and while Jason may not follow her advice to the letterā¦ he at least tries not to borrow more than heās prepared to handle.
Jason clears the spam from his email, unsubscribes from some things heās been meaning to for a while, and then stands, stretching. He splashes a little more water on his faceāand turns, ready to go back, only to bump into a hard, warm chest.
It startled a squeak from him, all that color flooding back into his face.
āHello, little wing,ā Dick purrs, crowding him against the sink. āThat was a neat little escape you made.ā
Jasonās heart beats rabbit quick in his chest. āI donāt know what you mean,ā he says. āI had to piss. Didnāt figure youād appreciate me going all over your lap, is all.ā
Dick snorts. āYou had to go get yourself off, you mean.ā
āI didnāt get off!ā Jason scowls. āI know better.ā
Jason has to tilt his head back in order to meet his eyes. He can feel his knees trembling. The ache in his groin pulses, slow and steady like a heartbeat, the crotch of his underwear uncomfortably damp.
āLike you knew better than to start something in front of B?ā Dick raises an eyebrow. āYāknow he lectured me about making you uncomfortable?ā
Jasonās face burns. āIā¦ā He draws up his chin. āMaybe you shouldnāt be such an asshole all the time, then.ā
Dick scoffs. āSee, and thatās why I donāt believe you.ā He pats Jasonās cheekāthe condescension in it makes Jason shudder. āThatās alright, little wing. Iāll just have to check.ā He pinches Jasonās cheek, then, making him whimper, hole clenching both at the promise and the way Dickās voice drops when he says it. Itās not quite Nightwing register, but itās close, andā
Jason shudders again.
He wants.
āTake your shorts off, Jason,ā Dick murmurs, and Jason hooks his thumbs in them without hesitation, letting them slip off of his hips and fall to his ankles.
āGood.ā Dick pats his cheek again. āTurn around. Hands on the sink.ā
Jason feels like heās on fire. He turns slowly, spreading his legs until his thighs no longer touch. Dick guides him backwards, Jason shuffling his feet to keep from getting caught in his shorts. His crotch is soaked.
Dick traces the hem of his panties. āWould you look at these,ā he purrs, snapping the band.
The back of Jasonās neck burns.
When he bought them, heād thought it would be funny. Oh, ha-ha, a pair of panties designed to look like the bottom half of the Robin uniform. Itās less funny now.
Jasonās grip tightens on the edge of the sink as Dick pulls them down to bunch around his mid thigh. The bathroom air is cool against his slit, and he swears he can feel every droplet of slick gathered there. He bites his lip.
Mistake.
Dick spreads his foldsāJason bites so hard he tastes blood, feels it bead on his lip. Canāt help but look at himself in the mirror; the way his curls halo around in his head in perfect dishevelment, his face blotchy red, bottom lip fat and swollen.
He looks like a fucking slut.
āYouāre so wet, little wing.ā Dickās tone is almost scolding.
Jason wants to cry. Jason wants to raise his hips in offering, rise onto his tip-toes and beg for Dickās cock.
Stop being so fucking easy, he scolds himself. Canāt play too hard to get, either, but he also needs to stop damn-near creaming his pants any time Dick gets a little intense. Dickās attention is heady. Addictive. Jason doesnāt want to give it up if he can help it, and that means keeping a careful balance.
Luckily, Jason is used to giving men people what they want.
He swallows down the urge. āWhose fucking fault is that?ā he grits out, letting his eyes drop again; staring at the marbled sink instead.
Jason yelps when Dick swats him. Itās not hard, heās taken worse, but the unexpectedness of itā¦Ā The threat of itā¦ It makes him swallow.
āYou know damn well whose fault it is,ā Dick says, voice low and vaguely threatening. It makes Jason shiver, cunt fluttering. āBut weāll be talking about your behavior later. For nowā¦ā Dick probes a finger inside of him. Jasonās cunt welcomes it, swallowing him greedily. His middle finger finds Jasonās t-dick, stroking small circles around it.
Jason whines helplessly, legs quivering as he fights to stay still. Heās soā Heās so sensitive.
Dick teases him, giving him only the barest stimulation, moving so fucking slowly itās almost agonizing. Jason is panting by the time heās done, sweat beading at his temples. His fingers ache, knuckles white.
āHm. Looks like you were telling the truth,ā Dick says. He takes his hand away, and Jason canāt help the way he whimpers, meeting Dickās eyes in the mirror.
Thereās a thin sheen of tears in his own now; the sclera red. Dick looks unaffectedāsave for his eyes, crackling electric blue that cut Jason to the core.
āClean yourself up, little wing,ā he says, wiping his fingers on Jasonās thigh before patting Jasonās ass. āI told Bruce Iād check on you and apologize before going to bed. You should go say goodnight to him.ā

š³ļø: A fic that brought you aboard a new ship
different but same, a two-part Samtory/Lanichols series (with a bonus third Lawrusso fic) by the amazing @jenpsaki. Youāre incredible, and so is this series, and I thank you so much for opening my eyes to this ship!
š: A fic you wish you could display on your bookshelf
When May Met Sally by @seek--rest, featuring a wonderful friendship between two underrated and very similar women (May Parker & Sally Jackson) whom I adore to no end. Iāve always wanted a fic like this š
š: A fic that ripped your heart out (but it hurt so good)
So in my other answer, I mentioned 12 hours. For this one, Iād like to mention @angst-is-love-angst-is-lifeās current devastating WIP, Trophy, which has stomped on my heart multiple times (especially Chapter 2). Like...oh my god. Barry whump CENTRAL

Questions Game!
Thanks for the tag @greenwitchfromthewoods š„°
Do you make your bed? Normally my husband does since he works from home every day, but on the days I do, I will! I am a neat freak so I can't rest unless the bed is made
Favorite number? 2- I was born on April 2nd, started dating my husband on August 2nd, got married on July 22nd, 2 was always the jersey number I would pick whenever I played sports, 2 has just always been my favorite number!
What's your job? I work as a clinical research associate for a company that sponsors phase 1 trials of new cancer drugs! I basically just input a lot of data to a lot of different platforms so trials can stay up and running! I used to be an elementary school teacher, which there are parts that I really miss, but I'm glad to have a job that lets me keep my sanity a lot more š
If you could go back to school, would you? I have a masters and no money, so no, I'm good š«” If I could go back to the concept of college where you went to 2 classes a day, worked a part time job and had endless amounts of free time, then yes š
Can you parallel park? Don't ask me to parallel park or I will have a mental breakdown
Do you think aliens are real? Absolutely???? If you don't think so then????
Can you drive a manual car? No, and again, please don't ask me to, I will sob (can u tell I am an anxious driver)
What's your guilty pleasure? Drinking pop š© (or soda for all you non-midwesterners) I know it's so bad for you, and I barley ever have it, but when I do? Lord have mercy, I could drink like 17. Nothing slaps harder than a McDonald's coke
Tattoos? No, I am a big baby when it comes to pain and the most indecisive person I know, I don't think I could ever commit to something permanent on my body. I love tattoos on other people, though!!!
Favorite color? Yellow and sage green!
Do you like puzzles? Yes, but if they're not like, crazy complicated??
Any phobias? I'm an āØanxious girlieāØ I don't really have an specific phobias, but I just worry a lot about something bad happening at any given moment?? Like yesterday at the gym, I was worried my house was going to set on fire because I was running the dryer while I was gone??? (yay intrusive thoughts!!!)
Favorite childhood sport? I played every sport under the sun as a kid- soccer, basketball, baseball, hockey, golf, swimming, gymnastics, dance, snowboarding, wakeboarding- I'd like to think I'm pretty athletic and I'm also very competitive š¬ I think my favorites were always baseball and hockey! Fun Madeline lore- I was a HUGE tomboy growing up and convinced my parents to let me play in a boy's baseball league from 4th to 8th grade. I was the only girl, and was actually pretty decent, but once everyone hit puberty and could throw 70 mph fastballs, I was like "yeah, I'm out" š
Do you talk to yourself? A concerning amount?? I am such a non-confrontational person, that any arguments I need to get off my chest, I just have with myself
NP tags: @honeyedmiller @raspberrybesitos @morallyinept @tightjeansjavi @itsokbbygrl

ITS TIME
ok okay okaaay, thinking about slow build stomach flus. With Cyno ofc. And I wonāt apologize. But Iām thinking like, the kind where pain and nausea come and go. But like across the span of a whole day and a half. There be a pang of discomfort and maybe an uncomfortable roll of the stomachā¦and then itāll pass and the character is fine again for a good few hours. And for cyno i feel like just because itās stomach pain and no other symptoms and the nausea comes and goes with a fair amount of time in between heās likeā¦.itās probably fine? But what I love about a slow build flu is that the other stuff just kinda settles in..I love the idea of a Cyno who (this kinda goes back to the whole getting sick on the night that everyone is out but nari prompt too!!) where all day heās just like a tiny bit off. Heās getting ready to go out and doing his hair but stops cuz itās suddenly too much energy. He grabs a drink of water but doesnāt finish it cuz itās just..not sitting right? But like not even that itās vaguer. And ofc heās finding himself dreading nari not being there at first just a little more than normal? Idk the internal feeling of malaise is so interesting to me cuz youāre just sort of draggingā¦ but with the flu itās unavoidable..
so eventually the pains come more often, and itās more specifically in the stomach and the nausea kicks up and the dizzy ness too. Maybe itās by now heās asking nari to go home, he feels bad and itās almost likeā¦he canāt escape the gross icky feeling slowly filling him up. His discomfort is just seeping into all parts of him and itās hard to process why everything (his clothes the lights the room even his favorite card game) feels *bad* que the whole kaveh and alhaitham summoning Tighnari to come get his man cuz he looks likes either gonna puke pass out or cry (or all ??) and they are scared cuz somehow he also looks close to biting one of themā¦
I ALSO like the idea of a Cyno where they get home and heās just falling apart (emotional maybe? Frustrated? Overtired?) idk cranky icky baby. His stomach hurts pretty bad now but it still hasnāt reached the point of it being an issue- until the next day. Because thereās something so soul crushing about hoping youāre gonna feel better in the morning and waking up feeling *way worse* and then ofc, the vomiting begins and thereās no way out but through.
ALSO unrelated but related light head Cyno dealing with bad food poisoning and passing out in front of Tighnari for the first time. Idk if I said this before so it so Iām so sorry!! Feel free to ignore if thatās the case lol. But Tighnari calling someone like kaveh or collie or anyone to talk too after Cyno is asleep and confirmed not dying and just breaking down? Yes. But!! Follow it by Cyno calling out to nari from the room, which totally embarrasses him. And Tighnari goes running cuz heās worried sick but it turns out Cyno wants to comfort HIM! And nari is all no you need sleep but Cyno insists and talks with him until he literally canāt keep his eyes open or maybe the nausea starts to kick up. I just think it would be sweetā¦Cyno agreeing to not get up with out tighnari there in case he falls and tighnari allowing himself to get some much needed comfort too cuz whole shit that was wild.
I feel like I have more but Iāll chill for now šš if I remember Iāll speak up FEAR NOT
Oh my word YES!! All this is simply brilliant. And it's so fitting considering I have a Cyno stomach flu prompt to fill next š I might just have to use some of these ideas, if that's alright with you!
I absolutely adore slow build up as well, if it's done right it's just ARGH! I love it! I think it's one of the reasons I enjoyed writing Through the Snow so much. Having a character be primarily fine, but those tiny little hints that something is wrong start to rear their heads. And it's so vague and far between that the character just can't put a finger on something being actually wrong, until things are really wrong.
Ahh all those ideas are so good. I love things just slowly building up the way you described- his arms just starting to feel heavy as he's doing his hair and he just wants to sit for a moment. Deciding to get a glass of water but he can't quite bring himself to finish it. Dreading going out and spending time with friends when that's something he usually loves. Longing for Tighnari's presence in a way that's much too vulnerable-feeling for Cyno's comfort.
AND don't get me started on the going to bed, hoping to sleep it off, waking up feeling worse trope, I freaking love that! Like you said, that absolutely soul-crushing realisation of realising you're not feeling any better, actually no, you feel worse.
It somewhat ties into this vague idea I've been chewing on, I love the idea of a character coming home, (let's go with Tighnari and Cyno, they're the center of attention right now after all) Tighnari coming home, either from a class he couldn't skip or from getting some necessities from the store. And he comes home knowing Cyno isn't feeling well - he's been off for a while now and maybe that morning was the morning he woke up and realised okay he's not feeling good and told Tighnari. And I'm just picturing Tighnari looking for him and finding Cyno looking so vulnerable. The type of vulnerability he usually shows only when he's alone. There are classics like finding him lying on the bathroom floor, or just miserable sitting with his head over the toilet, but the scene I have in head is him just lying on the bed. Curled in on himself, knees drawn up to his stomach, arms close to his chest. His back is to the door and he just looks so small and defeated.
That scene has a very high likelihood of appearing in a fic soon ahh.
And back to what were saying, YES! I remember I had a long ramble a while back about the scenario of Cyno passing out for the first time around Tighnari, and argh, it's another scenario I really want to bring to life in a fic at some point when the story is right for it. I don't want to risk repeating anything I already said in that post (it's late and I'm planning on heading to bed right after I finish typing this out, so my brain definitely isn't at its sharpest) so I'll keep my rambles brief, but I'm so in love with this scenario. And especially Nari in this situation, like he was rattled after that (how couldn't he be??) And I just have this feeling that, even though he's the sick one and this is all entirely outside of his control, Cyno would just have so much immense guilt for 'putting Nari through this.'
ALSO before I wrap up! I did read your follow up ask, and I have thoughts, BUT I'm going to hold off on answering it, just because some of the rambles I wish to ramble relate to my coming fic, and I don't want to spoil anything š

so i think a lot of turtles are cackling because of the recent ugg coincidence that happened. and i agree, this one is really sus and something that deserves a spot in cpn history. but iām more interested as to the why of it all. why is it there. my first guess is they forgot to blur it out and thought itās no big deal. we could leave it at that, but itās xz studio weāre talking about here ā and considering the events leading up to it, i guess one canāt help but wonder if there is anything more to thisā¦.
XZ & XZ STUDIO are notorious for blurring things out. not just faces of people close by or the staff, but also things around them. You even have a photo of GG with the window of the car blurred out, so people donāt know where he is ā or the things on his car seats also blurred. This is understandable, itās for his privacy. There are also times where certain items are covered in videos & photos because of ( the most likely ) certain contractual obligations. Also fact that the most random things people see him use gets sold out can be a factor, he doesnāt want to unintentionally endorse something thatās really more of a personal favorite.
Itās him wanting to keep certain aspects of his life private and thatās perfectly fine. Even if sometimes the guessing of what he has blurred out in some cases have been a game that turtles love to play. ššš
Now letās review the video in question and why the shoes being left in the open seemed out of the ordinary.
you see they did cover up ( blue smileys ) some things on there and at some point the ugg slippers were sort of obscured. until that one frame where you can see everything clearly.
At this point, itās not the first time that we saw one person having the otherās endorsement before it was announced. and the culprit was mostly ZZ. him having WYBās endorsed products before it gets announced. Also itās not usually THEM that you see using it ( well except for bottled joy lol ) but the staff. Itās like they were given a sizeable amount of that product and was shared to the crew ā which only happens to an endorser/sponsor. I think this is the first that we saw from their videos. other incidents we have are from second pass photos so itās why iām overthinking it all. why does it seem intentional.
considering days ago there was the whole maison kitsune same style hot search and the same phone case is still fresh in peopleās mindā¦ shouldnāt he be more ācarefulā with these? not just with public opinion ( who mostly donāt mind ) but also his fans who get worked up about it.
A key incident also was earlier the day, there was an HS about him and his WDB co-star. It was a video āleakā from when they were shooting the drama. It looked very sweet and cp material ā but they were shooting. I personally donāt have any bad blood with LQ. I genuinely think that they are friends and heās comfortable to joke with her like that.
It stayed up for some time on the HS, and itās okay to have it up considering itās promotion for the drama. Itās normal. You would expect stuff like this to pop up since they are the main pairing in the drama.
THEN LATER IN THE EVENING XZS DECIDES TO DROP THIS ON US. While I do think a very small amount of candies are intentional, this one seems to be ZZ hammering us. I still remember how he spoiled us when OOL was out so this is really nothing compared to that. He could have gone for something more in your face but what they did was actually perfect. Only those who pay special attention will notice whatās going on. The casual fan will be distracted by him doing push ups and leave it at thatā but not us ( and well other wfs who seem to be better at noticing stuff than us lol ). Itās like him comforting us after that HS and all the cp stuff in his drama ( which iām not mad about cause the love stories between him and the two girls is well written so far ; i wanna do a proper post about it in the future ).
So there you go. Itās not just because we saw Ugg shoes on his video clearly. Itās the endorsement incidents before, his acts of subtle comfort to cpfs, the events that lead up to the release of the video and ZZās penchant for giving candies you canāt wash. CPNs that become popular like this are usually not only because of what get at face value. You have to look at the bigger picture to make it sweeter. š

AO3 Tag Game
Thank you for the tag @incandescentflower! Sorry it's taken an actual age for me to get round to it!
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
I somehow have 47...
2. What is your AO3 wordcount?
556,173 words... a totally normal amount
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Bad Buddy, mostly . I wrote for a few others, almost a decade ago or longer, but Bad Buddy finally got me posting again! One day I might branch out... but we'll see haha!
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
The Fine Line Between Hormones and HomeĀ
A Soft Boy in Soft Sweaters
All that Gleams is Not Gold, but Some that Gleams Is
music is not in the notes, but in the silence between themĀ
you can't lose a game you don't want to win
Actually, a couple of those are pretty surprising! š
5. Do you respond to comments?
Yes! I always try to, though sometimes it might take me many months. I love to let people know that I appreciate the time they take in replying to my fics.
Fanfiction writing can be a pretty lonely endeavour. You're writing sommething that you hope is going to resonate with the fandom but until you put it out there, you can't know! So when I get comments, I want to respond in kind. For me, it helps with the feeling of a fandom community.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Priestly Duties - a Stucky fic where pre-serum Steve is a Catholic priest who gives into his desires for Bucky, but only once.
I didn't start it expecting it to turn out so angsty but the character kind of took it out of my hands!
7. What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Pretty much all of the others? I'm actually a big happy endings girlie. If I had to pick one though, I'd probably pick Aroma-nce So Sweet because the boys have no family feud to contend with.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Not often, but sadly, hate abounds despite out attempts to push it out of fandom spaces
9. Do you write smut? If so, which kind?
Do you want to know a secret? When I first started out in the Bad Buddy fandom, I had no plans on writing any smut for PatPran.
Then, less than three months after posting my first fic, I stumbled across a tumblr prompt and after that, the floodgates well and truly opened.
In terms of a 'kind', I'd say it tends to be on the explicit but wholesome side
10. Do you write crossovers? Whatās the craziest crossover youāve ever written?
I don't write crossovers exactlyĀ but I do steal concepts and scenarios from other shows to put my characters in haha.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not as far as I know
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Yes! It was very flattering to be askedĀ
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Yes, though not a published one
14. Whatās your all-time favourite ship?
Whatever I'm obsessed with in the moment, which is currently, of course, PatPran
15. Whatās a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
My Bad Buddy Regency AU š„²š„² I just can't get it to come togetherā¦
16. What are your writing strengths?
I focus quite heavily on characterisation in my fics, I like to make them feel authentic to the original versions of themselves, even in an AU. I get quite a few compliments on it so I like to think I do pretty well haha
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Writing too much šš I can be a little unnecessarily verbose. I'd like to work on cutting it down a bit
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I've done it once or twice but Iām not very confident in it so I avoid it honestly, except for the odd word
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Ahhhh probably HP, a long, long time ago.
20. Favourite fic youāve written?
I just went through my fic list to see if one jumped out but all I found was that they all have a soft spot for me in different ways haha.
Ā I think in terms of how people reacted to them, The Fine Line and The Space Pirate and the Officer of the Law are the two that stand out. I had an amazing response from the fandom about those two so they're particularly special for me
---
Again, I'm not sure who's already done this so tagging a few people but sorry if this is one that you've already done!

Any tips for making a legacy, for lack of a better term, weirder? I've worked pretty much every occult possible into the family tree but I feel like I get too focused on just maintaining needs and normal daily family life for them, especially since I prefer to keep everyone more or less happy (i.e. no tragic early deaths). The most exciting things I've really done are turn one sim into a Global Superstar and marry off another one to the Grim Reaper, and sometimes I pause aging for a bit to spend more time on certain plots. Your legacy is obviously pretty wild so I wondered how you go about coming up with ideas like Michael BublƩ Christmas Getaways and Charlie's Angels Spy Squads haha
This is a great question!! Let me see if I can dig up a good enough answer for it š
And I'll include pictures to break up the massive wall of text.
The reason Gens 1-3 are barely mentioned on here is because in reality there wasn't really anything interesting that happened in them. I wanted to hide away from the stress of a worldwide pandemic and watch my sims garden for a while. No real rules, just something to relax.
Gen 4 was a slight departure since I was getting a little tired of my sims doing the same thing over and over, and I decided to do the opposite and move them to a penthouse in the city as a refreshing change.
And as I started playing with more gameplay mods that added extra moodlets- the chance of hysterical death rose exponentially. My Gen 4 heir died when my Gen 5 heir, Hinoki was just a kid. So I decided to keep him around as a ghost while my Gen 3 heir worked on grinding out the ingredients for Ambrosia and Reed (Gen 4) continued to follow his political aspirations to become the first Ghost President of Simerica.
And this is where we find the nexus point of weird. And here's the biggest (not so secret) secret to it. The beginning of Gen 5 is when I started actually sharing my gameplay.
Not publicly, but with a small group of friends and simmers on a discord, like I've mentioned before here. Suddenly I wasn't just playing for myself, I was very slowly starting to play to make my friends laugh- to see how they reacted whenever I would leave little updates. And I found I really enjoyed that!
I started contriving little scenarios- what if Hinoki slept with her husband's band mate and had a secret child. And then someone would pop in and say she might have to run away for a while to Tartosa to have a baby. This independent toddler trait gives baby Val such a stink face- oh you should put him in a tiny leopard print robe to match. And it became this back and forth of - you know what would be funny?
I was started going off the rule from my friend @anotherplumbob that my first born would be the heir, so i had the fun task of figuring out how to get from point A to point B with Valerian, and what the hell point B even looked like.
We knew he was evil- he killed his dad as a toddler, and was just a full creep through his entire childhood- and so I started asking, what story do I want to tell my friends? I love romcoms, I love spy movies- what would be fun for me?
We're all influenced by our environments, the art, media, and music we consume, and that's all directly reflected into what we decide to put back out into the world.
And through exploring those characters, through playing the game, through my friends throwing the weirdest suggestions at me - what if he made a robot copy of his childhood Nanny? Okay, what mods can I use to reflect that in my gameplay? - What if he 3D printed a baby? - What if the Volcano gave them another baby? (this one is never happening shooby) - The whole thing spiraled out of control š
SO TDLR- How can you make your legacy weirder?
Find a community or even a couple trusted friends to bounce ideas off of. The amount of time I've spent conniving and scheming with @doctorsimcraft should honestly be studied. Write for yourself and like the 4 people you care most about. Enthusiasm is infectious. Find some good gameplay mods to add color to your gameplay- More Personality Please is an absolute game changer. Wicked Whims and Lumpinou's RPO are also fantastic additions if that's your style. Hopefully the game throws you some fun curveballs. Adversity and conflict breed interesting story - or something like that. Think about the types of stories that you would be excited to tell- really lean into your favorite tropes and themes. It's not a checklist, it's just like - I really love campy spies, I really love enemies to lovers - what do I do in game to make this happen. Find your story and let drive your gameplay- not the other way around. Or find a good balance and see what happens.
And to be honest I've very much lost that balance and fallen into a total rut of letting the story overtake the gameplay. So whenever I get too overwhelmed by my stupid large ambitions I just sit down and play and see where the game takes me.
I hope I can get back to not posing every single scene out for Gen 7 but I also love making poses, and breaking my game in every way to be able to tell the stories I want to!
It's why I'm so comically slow now. But I guess that just means we get to spend more time getting to know our characters, which I do genuinely enjoy.
I don't know if that was helpful or incredibly unhelpful- but it's what I got. Good luck! And above all have fun- in whatever shape that may take. (Hopefully it's a weird one)
xo, Anne

Annon-Guy: This Crossover ask is related to a fighting game idea I have. It's a 3-on-3 fighting game in the vein of The King of Fighters. I originally didn't inlcude them, but sense Shamen King is no longer owned by Shonen Jump, I have Team Sweaper (Train, Sven and Eve) in their place. To give an idea of this ask, here's the synopsis for my game idea, Batlle Stadium D.M.S.S. (Dengeki Bunko, MF Bunko J, Shonen Jump and Shonen Sunday);
----------------------------------------------
In a special pocket dimension, a mysterious fighter known as Gamma seeks new challengers to face in an effort to find worthy opponents. Using his mysterious powers, Gamma sends out special invitations across different multiverses to a three-on-three fighting tournament where two prizes await the winning team: a $500,000 Cash Prize and title of the three strongest fighters in the multiverse!
For one reason or another, 50 Teams, each with three fighters, enter the tournament by agreeing on the invites they were sent. Some fight for the title of strongest, some fight for the cash prize, some fight for both and some fight to discover the truth behind Gamma's motives. However, a mysterious monster is observing the tournament, waiting to strike...
Who will emerge the champion by the end? And who is the true foe? Gamma... or the monster?
----------------------------------------------
How would Train, Sven and Eve feel about being invited to a fighting tournament? Would Sven be okay fighting female opponents in the tournament? He is a gentleman after all.
In their ending, would $500,000 be enough to pay off their debts? Would they have some money leftover or would they give Eve a little allowance before paying off the debt? If they don't spend it on their debts, what would they spend it on?
How would they feel about having the Title of The Three Strongest Fighters in the multiverse? (They'd each be given medals as proof.) Hopefully it won't excite Creed or give Sephira concern should they catch word of that š...
P.S. No need to look up gameplay, okay š?
Well, they would not mind tbh. There is a chance of fighting female opponents but they would be able to deal just fine. The idea that hitting female fighters is ungentlemanly seems quite absurd in this case, as people who participate are all far more than capable of defending themselves and aware of what would ensue participation. On the stadium they are all equal. Train and Sven would fight like they normally do, using the right amount of strength needed to win without causing fatal injuries. No holding back without being a berserker is the right way of showing respect and I'm pretty sure they understand that.
If the exchange rate is the same as reality then that would be enough for their debts. All three would have some considerable allowance, even minus the expenses for tournament preparation. Train would just spend it on food and milk, while Sven would spend it on car maintenance and something for his suitcase. Both him and Eve would have some savings, knowing how they would probably need it in case Train causes some troubles. Eve would definitely buy more books and perhaps a bigger shelf as well.
None of them would really care tbh. The trio would mostly enter the tournament for the money. Sephiria, if she really minded that someone other than herself becoming the strongest, she would have thought of ways to take Train out long before any of his enemies could. Unless she wants to kill someone who also enrolls in the tournament or maybe operates it, she would only find the news interesting at best. Creed would be fanboying as usual. He would follow the tournament from the first day and yap about how none of the contestants are at Train's level.
