Hear me out

Fruitymooncake?

Let

Let me explain…

Cosmo and Astro are both the anxious type, one much more optimistic and joyous than the other

Sprout is the protective worrying type

Cosmo is the quiet worrier

Astro worries about everything all the time

Cosmo and Sprout like baking sweets for Astro

Astro has a sweet tooth

Cosmo and Sprout are already together but they both equally crush on Astro at the same time

Astro is oblivious

They both try to flirt on him but he still doesn’t notice

Cosmo and Sprout struggle to get Astro to understand without telling him outright

They all worry about each other

Astro sleeps a lot and falls asleep on the two constantly

Cosmo gets stuck between them (the shortest and the bottom for sure) 100%

Astro has a sleeper build and carries Cosmo and Sprout at the same time

Sprout is lanky yet still strong enough to drag and maybe pick up Astro (Astro is light weight)

Sprout is tough

Cosmo fucking dies for everyone

Astro has fragile and smooth, soft skin

Cosmo smells like chocolate constantly

Guess what Sprout smells like 🤩

Astro either smells like Vanilla, lavender, blueberries, or blackberries. Or all of the above

I’m done explaining

Second litter got their grownup names, Chasingspots died (R.I.P.), Nuggetfur joined, we adopted Slatepaw, Rockpaw was born, AND A LONER DROPPED THEIR WHOLE LITTER ON US WHICH BARELY-GROWN WEASELJOY IMMEDIATELY ADOPTED

(I played a little more and Rimekit brings us to 20 total members and 9 MoonFruit babies. Spay/neuter your pets, guys /lh)

Sharing a quick fix I pulled together for @sixfootsims Moonfruit Skinblends. CC Shade 3 has an error where the TM, YM, and AM fit/normal/fat states pull from the EM skin tone, making it appear discolored. This has been corrected. CC Shade 3 is the only file included in the download. 

Note: I messaged Blue about the fix but haven’t heard back, so I hope this is OK to share. I haven’t found any other errors, but if you use this skinblend (and I highly recommend it!) and find other errors, I am happy to try my hand at some more fixes.

🍹 WOOHOO ON THE BEACH REDUX + WATERDROP EYES 🍹- A COMPLETE SET OF GENETICS

hi party people

SO i made these humble edits of ios skin twoish years ago and figured i should give them a bit of a face lift by giving it the same treatment wisteria got: supernaturals to go with it, an edited lip texture, an eye set to go with it(2) and the tongue actually shows up now like intended!

og description: its basically those darn skins by io with some collarbones i snatched from obscurus-sims, lilith’s buttercup nosemask, sms sugar cravings eyes, jammed some mouseyblue waterline recolor by digi on there because the less tab 4 time the better, these goppolsme lips and the teeth are taken from sixfootsims’ moonfruit skin. is that it? i think so. groundbreaking, i just shouldve called it an edit but i could not not use the opportunity for this ridiculous name. 🌝

i kept the shade range down to the essentials this time around, adding an extra light and extra dark shade to the defaults. 1 & 4 are io’s original colors, the rest is a variety of different trapping actions stacked onto one another.

NOTE: the zombie and vampire default come with an overlay mod! and the werewolf skins are correlated! please check out the hyperlinked instructions given by the respective creator ‼ also, these use the same packages as the original release of the skin, make sure to remove them first!

the eyes are praline's waterdrop eyes and come in 40 colors:

SO here are the downloads:

waterdrop eyes 💧 - custom / gen&town / defaults

wotb skin 🍹 - custom / gen&town / defaults / supernaturals / pngs for recolors + add ons 🖌

Whysim's Miscellaneous Skin #45 Recolored

So I lied when I said wasn't going to do anymore skins. Something just hit me today, and I felt a sudden burst of motivation to expand my ever-growing collection of skins.

These are recolors of @whysim's Miscellaneous Skin #45 from this post on Garden of Shadows. I love the nose and less defined breasts on female sims. Teens and adults have fitness states, and elders have light wrinkles. I recolored the skin in 15 of Trapping's actions. I also edited the teeth and tongue, using textures from @sixfootsims's Moonfruit Skin. The download includes the edited base tone.

There are two versions: Custom and Geneticized + Townified. You can't have both in your game. No defaults because I didn't want to use these skins as defaults.

Download!

Custom

Geneticized + Townified

Enjoy, and let me know if there are any issues!

💄 Lilith's Delicate Eyeshadow for MoonFruit Skins

I have had @sixfootsims's MoonFruit skins in my game since they were released, and I absolutely love them. I've always used Lilith's Delicate shadow when I wanted Sims to have monolids, but the tones didn't quite match, so I finally got around to making some recolors to match the MoonFruit skins! They're not a completely perfect match, but they work well enough for me (and look much better with these skins than the eyeshadow's original Trapping tones).

I know SixFootSims said he planned to make a monolid version of this skin, but he hasn't been active in several years, so I figured I'd share in case anyone else wanted them!

18 swatches - adult/elder natural tones for both default & CC shades, as well as alien & zombie tones

Elder natural tones are only available for EU; adult natural tones are available for PU-AU

Alien & zombie tones are UU

Files are compressed and unmerged

RAR also includes geneticized/townified natural CC skintones - genetic scale based on @sixfootsims's original swatch

I don't typically make CAS content, so please let me know if you find any errors with anything!

Crescent Moonfruit Tart

"A dessert made with plenty of Moonfruit. Apparently the angle of the curve has been carefully measured in order to maximize flavor and aesthetic quality."

[paleobird]

“I didn’t know you didn’t drink. Wanna moonfruit milkshake instead?” (If youve told me before i beg forgiveness i have a shot memory)

"Oh! That works, yes, thank you!" It wouldn't be very good for her, but she was fine with that.

[kofencrew]

stumbled on a post about @sixfootsims MoonFruit skins and had to try it on one of my founders. Definitely a game changer if you're into very matte skins.

[pinkmoondoll9shihtzu]

Hey if you had to design an energy drink what would you put in it

shihtzu-berry hibiscus G-fuel. with patented MOONfruit visual snow ascension supplement. dandelion + motherwort for skincare, gabapentin infused carbonarion particles for an accentuated delirium. a secret variation of pink dye thats never been used in food production before. corporate wld try to launch some social media ad campaign like "ur telling me a shihtzu berried this hibiscus?" and the comment ssection wld b ravaged by anti-brand mobs daily. potentially a small string of deaths but not enough evidence to link them all solely to the drink. supporters are feeding it to their dogs to show how safe it actually is which has drastic consequences that wont be known until hundreds of years pass. what about you :)

Nothing major happened, I just like her

[antoninko]

[daman19942]

Hello, did you ever share the moonfruit skin fix?

I fixed it but I haven't shared yet. I will do so this weekend! Just want to take a preview pic to show the before/after.

Ba'kif: Chronicle of the Ice Bear

For @admiral-arelami by request and with delight. I love me some Ice Bear.

~

When he was Labaki, standing on the cusp of captain and major, he went to Lamiov and had the hardest discussion of his life. He had a new baby daughter, a little blue moonfruit in a fleece cuddler. His wives were many, and his 'Kifies' at oldest were ensigns.

"I do not wish to marry again, or to father children I might have to leave behind." Colonel was next, and unless one fucked up horribly, field rank was after that. "I never want them to see the back of me, and know that I had the choice between family and Ascendancy."

Stybla'ba'kifodo was Blood-Born going nine generations back, honored and honorable, he committed young to the Ascendancy and joined the Marines right out of secondary. Lamiov tried to assure him that whatever happened should he don the white uniform, his wives and babes would be cared for.

Labaki pursed his lips and blinked hard. "But not by me, Patriarch. Not as I promised. If I must break my word to them, let it be with the least pain for them all going forward."

No warm lover next to him in bed, no nest of wives and children sleeping around him safe and warm. No hand on a rounded belly, feeling the life moving within. No sweet-smelling bundle of baby in the crook of his arm, no little one on his knee, no young adult who knew everything rolling eyes at hopelessly old ticsi. No skinned knees, no milestones to celebrate, no star days with cake and delight at toys. Despite his yearning, he would be a piss-poor example of honor and duty if he shirked, but he'd be a father who left if he upheld his duty to the Ascendancy.

Lamiov sighed. "The Universal Analysis Group would take you in a heartbeat. Labaki, it's not all or nothing, nor as binary as you see it."

Lamiov was an optimist, and Labaki loved that about him. However, after rising through the ranks of the army, Labaki had very little optimism left.

"I know my duty, cousin. The Ascendancy needs people in those white uniforms who live their vows, not just give lip service to them."

Lamikav sensed his mood when he came back home, and all his wives gave him a wide berth. He burgled Lataem from her cradle and stole out to the garden with her travel bag. Tae was a 'surprise' baby, the next youngest of his child-herd was starting the sciences junior academy this year, and soon little Tae would be the only one at home. The little moonfruit was fat and round as a baby should be, her deep blue flecked with pink and purple across her cheeks. Her mother, Mir, was a former sky-walker and merit adoptive, and some of her mother's serene demeanor was present in Tae.

Tae made a soft grunting noise and pushed at his chest with an impatient fist once freed from her swaddle.

"I know for a fact you have been fed. You are playing me for a sucker." Unimpressed, his child gave him a look that conveyed an insubordinate 'so what?' and pushed on his chest again. "Fine, fine. You'll make me get up in the middle of the night to burp you when you're so gorged you can't move, then you'll puke all over your Tati."

Labaki took out a nursing pack, broke open the heating element and allowed it to come to the proper temperature.

"I spoke to Cousin Mio. He's trying to convince me to go to the UAG. Part of me wants to, since it means I could stay and watch you grow up." Offering the nursing pack to his daughter, he settled in with her in the crook of his arm. "But that means not standing against things that ought to perish. Patronage, self-dealing, corruption, duplicity. But that doesn't mean anything to you right now. All you want is to be warm, drink milk, and be told you are the most beautiful baby to ever exist."

Her Majesty ignored the flattery and he had to break the latch to slow her down.

"I do not want to leave, but my promotion makes it likely that I will see that white uniform in the next ten to twelve years. You won't be grown by then."

-

Five years later, after the Siege of Bogo Rai, Major Labaki became Colonel Labaki. His family welcomed him home, new honor chains bright on his chest, and a long medical leave to let him heal the rest of the way. His first grandchild, Kiwu'lai'torus, was a fat little moonfruit in a cuddler and Tae was a curly-haired cyclone in the garden, always ready to claim his knee and the only one still of age to do so.

"Baba!"

He could still toss her in the air, only a little unsteady as he caught her on the way down. They could talk over the secure comms, but not see each other. The Chaos disrupted comms signals unexpectedly, and the only true secure method was by using courier ships.

"Some men came to see me after I took some tests at school and a nice lady."

It was unworthy of him not to want his own children to become sky-walkers. He knew that. "What did they want to see you about?"

"I don't know, but I didn't like them. They were all slippery and slimy when they talked. They went away."

Labaki looked at Mir, her lips thin and fists clenched in her robe. "They-?"

Mir shook her head, lashes wet. "They test all children starting at age five up to age seven on entry to primary. It was a decision of the Syndicure and the Admiralty. No exemptions for anyone."

Labaki held Tae close, his heart hammering in his chest. Only command bridge officers and flag rank were supposed to know about sky-walkers, but he had married one. He saw the bodies of two of them carried off the Saber after Bogo Rai.

"But I'm not going." Tae stomped a foot that didn't touch the ground. "The lady said I was too stubborn for induction."

Mir smiled, but it was strained, and Labaki knew the signs of a dazzle headache. He picked up Tae and slung her over one hip, then slid an arm around Mir. "Tae, Mir, come and have a lie-down with me. I'm tired from my trip."

"Will you read to us, Tati?"

"Of course."

It was not until many years later that he understood what 'induction' really meant.

~

The day came.

Ba'kif sent a prayer of thanks to his ancestors that Tae had been accepted to the Academy of Sciences on Sposia and would leave before his ceremony. By now she knew what the white uniform meant. Once he left, his family would mourn as if for his death. Even if he should die in the line of duty, he would have a memorial on Naproar.

"I don't want to go." Tae's arms held to his middle and her tears soaked his shirt. "Can't I stay until it's time for you to go?"

Ba'kif's tears fell on her head. "No, love. I'm sorry. You need to start your life, not cry over mine. When it's time for me to retire, you'll be a grown woman. I hope you'll remember me."

He'd likely end up on Sposia, but not anywhere near the academy. The UAG facilities were the most highly secured in the Ascendancy, much to the irritation of the Syndicure, the Nine, the Forty, and the CEDF.

"I will always remember you. Why do you have to go?"

His heart broke inside his chest. Yai, his oldest, was weeks away from having her first child. His wives would be treated as widows, his children as orphans.

"Because before you or any of your brothers and sisters were born, I made a promise to protect the people of the Ascendancy. When I become a general, after my ceremony, I must protect them all as I would protect you." His voice didn't break, and he could be proud of that. "I hoped that this wouldn't come until you were ready to fly on your own. Please, just remember that I am so proud of you, and love you still so much."

Mir pilots the shuttle that will take Tae and Lamiov to Sposia. When the ramp went down, he bid them farewell, and watched as the ramp went up again, and the shuttle lifted into atmosphere. He said his farewells at the homestead, where the mourning lamps were lit once he left the boundary stones. The Admiralty shuttle waited for him at the CEDF post in the secure section of the spaceport.

~

When he was Supreme General, he got a taste of what it was like to raise young ones again. Only this time the young ones had a Taharim education and were additionally too smart for their own good. He took them aboard his vessel and managed to persuade Ja'fosk to give him a free hand with both Ensign Ziara and Ensign Thrawn. Ziara stuffed Thrawn through a four-year education in three years, and essentially took him everywhere she went like a child with a favored plushie. Wags joked that the boy was the Irizi Blood-Daughter's first command, and that he had a fine future ahead of him as a trophy husband once the Mitth let him go.

After dealing with both of them at the academy, Ba'kif knew that Ziara didn't dare to let Thrawn out of eyeshot. He and Ja'fosk were quick to learn that lesson, and set to making sure that both young officers were crosstrained on every station aboard the Ferocious.

In time both moved on to their own commands, but where Ziara rose high Thrawn stuck at senior captain. Dy'lothe, also known as the Late Admiral Dy'lothe for his habit of getting there when the battle was over, stopped Thrawn's promotion to commodore with Ers'ikaro. Both men openly flaunted their connections with the Syndicure and their allegedly former families - the Clarr and the Dasklo. Both men voted to exile Thrawn, along with Af'arilk, agaainst Ar'alani and Ja'fosk.

Thrawn agreed to the intel insertion from his world of exile, and he'd be picked up in three years. But no humans came to that world for five. Thrawn could rightly believe that he's been abandoned and Ba'kif had broken his word. Indeed, Ar'alani confirmed that for him in a visit to Sposia after his return to being Labaki and elevation to Patriarch.

~

The Syndicure passed down the sentence.

Ar'alani, Ba'kif, and Thrawn would be executed at dawn. Their heads would fall under the sword. The Syndicure under Thurfian and the Admiralty under Dy'lothe had been unanimous. Now they could only wait in their cells as the hours ticked toward dawn. Ba'kif sent farewells to his family that he hoped they'd received. It was unheard of to depose a sitting Patriarch, Indeed, it was tantamount to a declaration of war, but he'd named Tae as his successor and Thurfian would kiss Dhav'uul dealing with her.

The ground shook hard and Ba'kif frowned.

That was not an icequake.

He could hear nothing from his cell, but some hours later the ground shook twice more in quick succession and the lights went out. The north glacier reservoir had been shored up ten years ago to handle excess melt. If it had breached, he wouldn't have to worry about losing his head or even drowning - the water was so cold he'd die of shock.

The door to his cell handcranked open, and a squad of guards gestured him out. One moved to put shackles on him only to be shoved back by the sergeant. He moved slowly - the questioning had been hard on him at the age he was now. He could see two more squads ahead of them, Thrawn on a stretcher and Ar'alani in a four-hand carry. Thrawn opened his eyes, smiled, and closed them again.Ba'kif vowed to peel the skin from Thurfian, Dy'lothe, and all their little brown-nosers, then roll them in salt and stake them alive over ice-roach nests.

They exited the Mitth compound into a dark so thick that Ba'kif could have spread it on toast. If memory served, they were heading toward the commercial spaceport and customs instead of the Admiralty or government center port. He was with Ar'alani and Thrawn in one transport. The guards answered no questions, only drove, through they passed over a medikit when Ba'kif asked for one. Ar'alani and Thrawn were in rough shape.

The headlights of the vehicle picked out something that made him blink.

"That's a Gozanti."

"It's one of theirs," the driver spat. "They interdicted the whole system along with the Stybla fleet. She didn't bother to open communications, but cratered the Syndicure as soon as she was in orbit. Then she did the same to the Admiralty and the Mitth reservoir - drained the whole thing into the agriculture caverns."

Thrawn was smiling and Ar'alani rolling her eyes. "Thrawn. She didn't even open negotiations first."

"You don't even know it was her, Ara."

"Shoot first and ask later. I know who it is."

"Captain Little Dragon of the Chimaera." Pyron'di. "And Commodore Old Lion." Pel'laeon.

Ba'kif shut his eyes and breathed out a long sigh of relief. "I shouldn't have worried, Thrawn. I knew they'd come boiling out after you like a nest of firewasps."

They stopped near the boarding ramp, but Ba'kif was almost bowled off his feet by Tae.

Who yelled at him. Shook him. Cried and hugged him. Yelled at him again. "Sesi's so mad at you!"

Medical crews surrounded each of them as the Gozanti lifted off, escorted by a dozen TIE-D fighters for the quick flight to the Chimaera. Ba'kif didn't fight being laid down in the medsled. He was old, tired, and hoped meanly that the Syndicure had been in session when Pyrondi cratered it.

Once they locked onto the Chimaera's docking ring, the captain came to see them. "We'll be taking the prisoners off first."

"Prisoners?" Thrawn lifted his head and Ar'alani pushed it back down to the pillow.

"Mm. The Nine have been deposed. Thurfian, Zistalmu, the Clarr, Dasklo, and Obbic patriarchs, speakers, and syndics prime have been turned over to-" Tae coughed and looked amused. "Old Lion and Little Dragon." He might have some explaining to do concerning Il'yana, but Ba'kif wasn't too worried. "Tati, the UAG is foaming at the mouth to get hands on those ships not to mention that bac'tah..."

Ba'kif closed his eyes, pain medications easing his injuries, the medics already starting work.
