Just for fun because False gods was in the lead, here os a snippet from the False Gods. Beatrix's introduction. I think I want to publish all four but let's just start with this.

Tw: alcoholism, drug use, violence, inappropriate joke made by a drunk and high person

Nikki & Louis and Stevie version

Beatrix Jones life from birth to high school

Aurora Four’s lead singer, also known as a codename “Roseblood,” was born Beatrix Rhiannon Jones on August 6th, 1998, to Micky and Clara Jones in Los Angeles. Micky and Clara are most known as the leading attorneys of many publicly famous trials like the assault of popstar Lily Marsh, arson case of indie singer Vince December and the domestic violence case of Kurt Duncan and Sally Fay. Micky Jones himself is the son of Freddie Jones, the drummer for the Hectics.

Beatrix’s childhood is calm and full of privilege. She went mostly to private schools in LA, bought by the immense success of the then newly established law firm. All the bliss of company's success was shadowed by Freddie Jones’s chaotic 2000s. As the Hectics were coming to an end, Freddie’s alcoholism and drug use was becoming a problem.

All of it cultivated in Beatrix’s 8th birthday party. Witnesses described the birthday as “peaceful, till the grandfather appeared.” Freddie Jones was described as fully intoxicated, and not able to stand still. He was loud and obnoxious, and clearly in need of help. Worst happened when Micky Jones was giving a speech for his then 8-year-old daughter, which was documented as a viral video.

The clip starts with Micky Jones talking in a calming tone. He is wearing a black suit with a red tie, which looks too formal for a kid’s birthday party if you didn’t know how much Jones’s net worth. There are no kids around him, and food looks almost fancy, which didn’t fit for a children’s party. “I can still remember when we brought Beatrix from the hospital. Clara was exhausted and I- “

In that moment Freddie rushed into the mic and grabbed the mic into his both hands. Even when he was still, he was still moving around, like he was dodging mosquitos. Everyone could hear his deep breathing while he dodged his son. “Hello everyone. There are so many good people in this children’s party. None of them are kids. I shouldn’t see this many people I have fucked in a children’s party. I should have been more supportive of my son so he would allow his daughter to have a normal party that isn’t meant to suck off his supposed clients.”

Freddie was punched in the face by his son after that. The camera cuts when everything becomes chaos. People that were attending the birthday have told after what happened after the camera cut. Freddie Jones tried to punch his son back but failed and fell to the ground. Group of men ran towards the drunk man to tackle him. Carla was crying. As for Beatrix, many people noted that they were weirded out by Beatrix’s behaviour. She was laughing uncontrollably looking at her grandfather.

After that day, Micky publicly denounced his father and filed for a restraining order for three years. Freddie himself went on to have two years of deep alcoholism and drug use, until he found his fifth wife Lola Sylvestre, and moved to France for three years.

When Beatrix was in elementary and middle school, she was described as a clam and cordial little girl that enjoyed playing the violin and the piano. Beatrix has herself described the years as the “years of suppression” where she was forced to play classical music because her father had banned any type of other music in Jones household. That music would be an inspiration to the sound of Aurora Four later, so in the end, it got its use.

When Beatrix Jones is fourteen, Freddie Jones tries to contact his son after years of no contact. That phone call is actually answered by Beatrix herself, which starts a secret contact between the two musicians of the Jones family. Even with Micky’s constant objections, Beatrix and Freddie have a tight bond that lasts till she is sixteen, after Freddie’s sudden passing. That, is us getting a head of ourselves though.

Blurb or one shot idea Idk I you have seen those TikTok’s when the wife will send her bridesmaids to give sexy or boudoir polaroids to the husband on their wedding but I feel like on nepobaby would do that to rockstar!eddie during their wedding and just watching him lose his mind and want the wedding to end as fast as possible

this is so funny to me because i could totally see it. specifically at the second wedding in vegas with their friends.

it's really just a big party with this one because, half their rowdier friends weren't invited to the first wedding because nb parent's wouldn't allow it. they had "an image and standard to uphold" and it would be tainted by those "hooligans" showing up lol. so this was a chance for them to get to come and celebrate and it's less pressure. the first one, eddie and nb enjoyed but not really because they were so pressured to be perfect and it was so controlled by her parents, that's why the second one was done.

this one was so much more chill, casual really- well, as casual as vegas can be lol. a lot of drinking, a lot of drugs, just a fun fun time.

somewhere after the ceremony but before they disappeared (read light my morning sky for more lol) nb had got the idea to do something scandalous as a wedding gift. maybe it was bc of the way eddie reacted to their music vide where she was naked (read girls on film for more) or because he used to hang out with a lot of playboy girls... and she saw the copious amounts of dirty mags at wayne's trailer back in indiana, but she decided to do her own dirty little photo shoot. well... sorta, it was her and farrah with a polaroid camera and a dream lol. sure, eddie had a ton of nudes of hers anyway, his own little stash, but she thought this would be better. plus, it had her in her wedding garter from before, with 'mrs. munson' stitched in red on the white lace. and that's all she was wearing lol.

farrah casually dropped it off while eddie's smoking a cigar with his friends. he barely registers the photo until he sees nb's nipples on the first one and is like hold on-

they definitely leave after that. go to their private room while their friends keep partying. eddie keeps it in his safe after that. it might be his favorite gift from her ever lol.

𓉸ྀི ݁ ˖ ◜ THE PICK ME GIRLS

Pick Me! (commonly stylized as Pick Me) is the second chance for five girls who have been mistreated by the industry and poorly managed by their companies. Known for their appearances in various survival shows, four of the girls (Yue, Kiko, Pink, and Jules) were unfairly cut from the final groups due to rigged rankings. The remaining girl, Rosie, managed to debut with EVERMORE after Once Upon a Dream, but her situation didn’t get any better. After just a year with the group, her members accused Rosie of being a bully and got her removed from the lineup, despite the lack of evidence to back up the claims against her.

The group was formed and handpicked by Sylvia Hara, the creative director of Heartbreak Entertainment. Sylvia, who seems unfazed about discussing the group's origins, has stated several times that the idea for the group came about after she watched an interview of Choi Mijun, former group mate of Rosie and leader of EVERAFTER, in which she labeled Yue as a "pick me."

All three of them competed in Once Upon a Dream, but only Mijun and Rosie made it to the top 6 and got to debut. Yue, on the other hand, accused Mijun of cheating and claimed that her father had made a generous donation to Mnet to ensure that Mijun not only debuted but also won the show. Allegedly, Mijun would then orchestrate Yue’s exclusion from the top 6 despite her being a fan favorite to win. After OUAD, Yue went live on Instagram with a stream titled “OUAD: All the shit swept under the rug,” where she delved deeper into the topic. Just a few days later, Mijun gave an interview as an excuse to address Yue’s accusations and labeled her a “pick me” for complaining about not being good enough to earn a spot in EVERAFTER’s lineup.

Sylvia found the interaction hilarious and decided to capitalize on it. After signing Yue and making her the leader of the group, Sylvia had a marathon of survival shows. Notebook in hand, she listed 7 potential candidates to complete the lineup, ultimately selecting 4 of them.

Pick Me is known for its unfiltered girl crush concept and its dance-pop sound with hyperpop elements. Their debut single, "Angel of My Dreams," was a huge success, driven both by the drama surrounding the group and the song itself, which went viral from the moment the teaser for the music video was released. The girls are widely regarded as the leaders of their generation.

⋆˙⊹ COMPANY: Heartbreak Entertainment

⋆˙⊹ DEBUT DATE: April 20th, 2022

⋆˙⊹ DEBUT SINGLE ALBUM: Angel of my Dreams

⋆˙⊹ FANDOM: n/a

⋆˙⊹ MEMBERS: Yue, Rosie, Kiko, Pink & Jules

𓉸ྀི ݁ ˖ ◜ WHAT MADE THE GIRLS GET PICKED?

♡ FENG YUE, 2002 ݁ ˖ ◜ Competed in Mnet's Once Upon a Dream. Even though she was the show's front-runner since her very first performance, Yue ended up ranking seventh, missing out on EVERMORE by just one position. Her fellow contestant Choi Mijun, who unfairly won the show, was behind this. As the untalented nepobaby she is, got the show rigged in her favor by her daddy, who donated a huge amount of money to Mnet. All of this because Yue called them out. Also called her a pick after debuting. The audacity!

⋆˙⊹ SHOWS: Once Upon a Dream.

⋆˙⊹ RANKED: 7th.

⋆˙⊹ FORMER COMPANY: SM Entertainment.

⋆˙⊹ YEARS TRAINED: 4 years prior OUAD, 1 year before debut.

♡ SEORA ‘ROSIE’ PARK, 1998 ݁ ˖ ◜ Competed in Produce 101, didn’t make it. She then tried in Once upon a Dream. Contrary to Yue, she managed to debut after ranking sixth. Rosie opted for a much smarter approach: keeping her mouth shut and away from any drama. At least until her debut with EVERMORE. Spending twenty-four hours a day with a mean queen bee and her pose of hair-headed girls was bound to take its toll. Fed up with being bossed around and verbally abused by her leader Mijun, she stood up for herself and called her out to the company. Mijun accused her of being a bully and got her kicked out.

⋆˙⊹ SHOWS: Produce 101, Once Upon a Dream.

⋆˙⊹ RANKED: 13th (Produce 101), 6th (OUAD).

⋆˙⊹ FORMER COMPANIES: JYP Entertainment, Idol Maker Entertainment.

⋆˙⊹ FORMER GROUP: EVERMORE (2020-2021).

⋆˙⊹ YEARS TRAINED: 2 years prior Produce 101, 3 years before OUAD.

♡ SUKIKO ‘KIKO’ MORI, 2000 ݁ ˖ ◜ Competed in Mnet’s Produce 48 after just two years of training with SM. Although she went a bit unnoticed at the beginning of the show, Kiko ended up becoming a fan favorite to debut. She’s not just the best dancer I’ve probably ever seen, but also a super creative and versatile choreographer. Kiko was born to dance; you can tell just by watching her. But somehow, she ended up ranking fifteenth. With that talent! Literal daylight robbery!!

⋆˙⊹ SHOWS: Produce 48.

⋆˙⊹ RANKED: 15th.

⋆˙⊹ FORMER COMPANY: SM Entertainment.

⋆˙⊹ YEARS TRAINED: 2 years prior Produce 48, 4 years before debut.

♡ PAVINEE ‘PINK’ WORACHOT, 2002 ݁ ˖ ◜ Competed in Produce 48 and was blatantly robbed. Pink stood out from the get-go with her unique voice and natural charisma. No matter where you looked, there she was, smiling and surrounded by people like moths to a flame. She was one of the most popular contestants, even though her Korean wasn’t perfect. That’s the excuse the judges used to keep her out of Iz*One by just one spot. Fans went absolutely wild, and rightfully so!

⋆˙⊹ SHOWS: Produce 48.

⋆˙⊹ RANKED: 13th.

⋆˙⊹ FORMER COMPANY: YG Entertainment.

⋆˙⊹ YEARS TRAINED: 1 year prior Produce 48, 4 years before debut.

♡ JULIANA ‘JULES’ SANTOS, 2002 ݁ ˖ ◜ Jules initially debuted in JYP's disastrous attempt at a coed group, 2LUVU, which crashed and burned after just a year and a half, with only two comebacks to their name. After that, she competed in Girls Planet 999, where she somehow ended up in eleventh place even though she was more debut-ready than half the girls who ranked above her. She was edited to seem like she had a superiority complex and zero interest in bonding with the other contestants. Nowadays you can’t even have a bit of RBF without getting canceled. Mnet boo, you suck!

Epic Gwen #girlboss moment this week ily my favorite nepobaby

[mgopinoon]

K is wearing Marc Jacobs (who she works with often) for the Vogue shoot, I'm sure they had a hand in her getting the cover + Cindy's influence. There were other models shot for the magazine, but she got the cover. Nobody in the general public cares about her, this is yet another way for her to pretend she's more relevant than she is. If she were a true feminist, she would not constantly weasel her way into an industry, where actual talented women fight for a change every day to just be hired for small roles she steals from them. My favorite tweet to showcase how K's presence is ruining the industry by not letting real actresses get jobs: https://x.com/kneelingbus/status/1689282025767796737

I hate that she says she knows she is privileged but still doesn't make a real effort to show that she deserves it. This cover is to continue boosting her ego and give herself an importance that she doesn't have, nobody cares what she thinks or does, that's why she has to upload parts of the interview to her stories, since people only care that she looks like a model and the cover has a good aesthetic, her beauty, but what she says or thinks is not relevant. It made me laugh that they called Gracie Abrams to ask about Kaia and she said she was a different person who cared more about traveling the world than studying in high school hahaha is she her friend or her enemy? in her life as nepobabys is that cool? Kaia would shut mouths and show her true intelligence if she started studying like many celebrities who have shown to be more than a pretty face and have their university careers, she can't pretend that by reading books people are going to think she is Einstein.

Her actions, how she lives her life, how she likes to be constantly paparazzied, how she is able to receive important recognition from her mother's friends, is so disgusting that no one can take her seriously. She continues to be the nepobaby, the living image of her mother, who has many privileges and will continue to have them without having merits and who takes space away from really talented people and who sells a false feminist discourse.

KAREN REGINA GRETCHEN PLS

me when the plastics: climbing the walls of my enclosure

Karen

How I feel about this character:

The silliest goofiest girl alive. That being said she makes me insane.

All the people I ship romantically with this character:

Janis, Cady, regina sometimes, and Kevin <3. (I've also been known to ship her with certain men who only exist in my mind but we don't have time to get into that)

My nonromantic OTP for this character:

Also Regina, they are THE siblings who aren't even related of all time in my mind. Me when the plastics in general tbh: 🤩

Unpopular opinion about this character:

She's way more capable of malice than people think she is. (her style of highschool bullying would be that she thinks she's sooo fucking funny <3)

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:

let her be a theater kid you cowards

Regina

How I feel about this character:

Everything about her makes me depressed... I love it 10/10. And I just KNOW that secretly, deep down, underneath the layers of plastic she is such a loser.

All the people I ship romantically with this character:

Grerchen <333, Janis, karen sometimes, cady on holidays and special occasions.

My nonromantic OTP for this character:

something something karen sisters but also Cady? Talk about someone who has literally walked a mile in your shoes.

Unpopular opinion about this character:

I like her mom :(( Like, yeah, she's not entirely responsible for the state of their relationship given the fact that she's the child, but I think what they have going on is more complicated. And it's probably Mr George's fault fuck that guy I hate him if I could kill him I would but that's frowned upon in all 50 st

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:

I wish they went more in depth on her relationships with the other plastics.. Even if that relationship is just "we're coworkers and our job is being popular".

Gretchen

How I feel about this character:

She's just a baby your honor. That's my favorite cringe scared & puffed up nepobaby girlfailure.

All the people I ship romantically with this character:

Regina <33 and uhh Janis sometimes.

My nonromantic OTP for this character:

I think she could be really close friends with Damian post-canon. They both love drama and they talk about the various insane soap operas they watch.

Unpopular opinion about this character:

I'm not saying the other three plastics are saints who can wash their hands of all responsibility, but the root of her issues definitely runs deeper than highschool... You cannot show me a woman so neurotic and codependent without me assuming Something's Gone On, probably stemming from childhood 🤔.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:

This girl needs like, a mathletes equivalent for real, just any kind of hobby she can be good at, or at least really enjoy 😭. I've always headcanoned her as, like, a literature person, so maybe she's good at writing. I could also see her being good at cooking or embroidery or playing guitar or something I'm not picky just please let this girl have some skills somewhere 🙏🙏

You catch the eye of a famous big shot you end up having more than a fling with, resulting in an pregnancy.

You want to prove the world that you’re more than your last name and vast inheritance, so you move into a so-called content house in San Myshuno and throw yourself completely into your career as a professional gamer and influencer. Unfortunately, your new lifestyle has proven to be more psychologically taxing than it has any right to be. The influencers you’re currently living and collaborating with do nothing but cause drama, and you’ve found yourself in deep waters when C-Fuel, the Cowplant based energy drink company that has been sponsoring you, comes under fire for poisoning consumers, roping you into a huge scandal and subsequent cancelation. As a result, your beer brewing hobby turns into a coping mechanism and you become addicted to alcohol to deal with the stress.

Lot challenge/trait: Party Place

Even as a teen, all you wanted to do was sneak out and party.

They don’t want you to waste your potential, you’re a gifted kid after all, who effortlessly got straight As throughout school. So, they decide on your behalf that you put your hefty scholarship to good use and study to become a scientist. Little did they know college was the sure way to make you unleash the party beast within in its final form. You party harder than ever, doing drugs, hooking up, dancing the night away in the pale moonlight. You’re living like Jim Morrison, right until a happy accident comes your way: you and your dealer are expecting a child. After graduating, you decide it’s time to settle down and become an adult… well, sort of. You may have a stable job and your own apartment now, not to mention a kid, but maybe that doesn’t mean the party needs to stop. Will you eventually change your ways and go to rehab?

You’re a sensitive person, naturally spiritual and intuitive, which might be the reason why you live with a dark cloud over your head. Many things make you sad: fishing (it’s not ok to eat fish! They do have feelings!), not honoring the islands of Sulani, your new home, and being your significant other’s lover on the side. It almost seems like you were born to be the other woman or man, until an unusual new opportunity for love presents itself when you, as a professional paranormal investigator with the gift of communicating with the dead, meet and fall in love with one of the Sulani island elementals.

Home: Cult compound in Strangerville

Lot challenge/trait: Cursed

You always knew you were special. You can summon volcanic bombs and increase the quality of plants with your mind. You’re pretty sure you were born to rule the world, or at least that’s what the voices in your head have been telling you. You’ve also heard stories of a place called Strangerville, where a bizarre fruit that weakens the minds of those who eat it grows. You need to get your hands on one of those plants, so you move to the mysterious town in the middle of nowhere and start your own congregation. Finding a small group of obedient followers was pretty easy, especially after tricking them into eating your special fruit. Soon enough, the entirety of Strangerville will be yours. Your only concern is that, after you die, no one will carry on with your legacy, so you and your favorite disciple decide to have an heir. Will your child eat the bizarre fruit and make you proud? Or will they leave the empire they were supposed to rule in the dust?

- Form a cult using the create a club feature and add 6 members. One of the activities must be stealing.   - None of the members of the domestic unit are allowed to have jobs.

Home: Tiny Home in Windenburg’s Ancient Ruins

Lot challenge/trait: Small home (max. 100 tiles)

Growing up in a compound full of possessed people with an evil cult leader as a parent is an experience that would scar any young mind, and yours was no exception. You are certain that your parent plans to feed you the bizarre fruit, so as soon as you become a teen, you pack your few possessions and flee to Windenburg, where you find a hidden place to live by the ruins. You need money to survive, and you need to build a proper home, so you start playing music in bars and other public spaces hoping to get donations, and writing your own songs. Music has always been your passion and you’re naturally gifted at it; it’s only a matter of time before other people notice your talent and you start gaining fame and fans. Drunk on the love and attention you’re receiving, you get a little too close and personal with your newfound groupies. You never meant to have seven kids with them, but hey, it’s not your fault you’re so darn fertile, apparently. You might be a little emotionally stunted due to your upbringing, and perhaps committing to just one partner is not the life for you, but one thing is for sure: you will raise your seven children with all the love in the world in your tiny home by the ruins.

Home: Abandoned factory in Moonwood Mill

Lot challenge/trait: Filthy

Some say you were born bad, and you’re inclined to agree. You didn’t exactly choose the ganster life, but it certainly did choose you. You’re tough, and you have big dreams, bigger than your parent’s tiny house, so you start living in the streets by yourself as a young adult. There’s an abandoned factory in Moonwood Mill that becomes your gang’s operation center. Despite it never being one of your priorities, love comes knocking at your door in the form of a rich, posh sim whose parents are in the political career. Due to your bad reputation, you’re not allowed to be seen with them in public, until the two of you finally elope together and you realize that maybe you’re not the only reason why your partner’s parents were ashamed of them: they’re a werewolf! They’re an outcast, much like yourself. You two have a baby, and that’s when your partner starts insisting that you quit your gang and the criminal career for your child’s sake. You know they’re right, it’s bad for a young mind to see the things you’ve seen. Sadly, this is the only life you know, and if it’s not good enough for your family, then you’re just not good enough for them. It’s time to leave and start your life over…

Rules:

- Build or download an abandoned factory, or repurpose Moonwood Mill's library. - Max out a drug dealing skill. - Form a gang. - Furnish and decorate your home with stolen items.

Aspiration: Emissary Of The Collective or Wildfang Renegade

Skill: Fabrication or Handiness

Traits: Cat Lover, Dog Lover, Loner

Home: Tree house in Moonwood Mill 

Lot challenge/traits: Cat hangout, Dog Hangout.

Being abandoned by your gangster parent as a child really killed your faith in humanity, hence your love for animals that also extends to the beast within yourself. You build a little tree house with your own hands in that particular spot in town that mysteriously attracts all kinds of stray dogs and cats that you love to feed and play with, and some of them become your beloved fur babies. As a werewolf (or someone who aspires to be one), your dream has always been to honor your lycanthropic ancestry by joining one of the local packs and becoming the alpha. Despite the tension between the Moonwood Collective and the Wildfangs, you find your fated mate in the rival alpha. The two of you elope in secret and have a baby. Maybe this will mark a new era of peace and communion between the packs, but that depends on how willing your packmates are to cooperate.

Rules:

- Live with as few sims as you can, the rest of your domestic unit members must be pets. - Craft most of the items in your home using mainly the fabricator and the woodwork table. - Sell crafts and collectibles for a living. - Become an Apex werewolf.  - Become the alpha of one of the packs and marry the alpha of the opposite pack (remember that the first werewolf you successfully flirt with will become your fated mate). - Have a child. - Complete the Moonwood Relics collection.

Gen 9: Wildflower Wildfire  

Career: None (selling flower arrangements)

Aspiration: Purveyor of Potions

Skill: Flower Arranging

Traits: Romantic, Jealous, Family-Oriented

Home: Abandoned house in Glimmerbrook

Lot challenge/trait: Haunted House Residential

If your werewolf community knew about you plan to betray them by becoming a part of the traitor class of spellcasters, they’d probably kick you out, but they’ll never get the chance to do that if you leave first. There’s a boarding school for teenage wizards in Glimmerbrook you’re interested in joining, so one night you sneak out and pay a visit to the principal, who is kind enough to transform you into a spellcaster and welcome you into the school. Your parents aren’t exactly thrilled with your decision, but they want you to be happy, so they support your choice.

Much to your dismay, your new housemates are not what you expected. They know about your lycanthropic origins and bully you relentlessly for them. One day, you’ve had enough and set part of the school on fire using magic right before moving out into a haunted abandoned house you'd discovered some time ago while exploring Glimmerbrook. There is an old flower arranging table in the garden and you decide to put your fascination with botany to the test by learning to make flower bouquets and selling them for a living.

One day, a particularly attractive sim catches your eye, and since your alchemy skills are on point, you don’t think twice before luring them in using potions. You never considered that their personality traits completely clash with yours. Do opposites attract, or is love not the kind of magic that should be messed with? Regardless, there’s already a baby on the way, and you’ve been alone for so long, running on stardust and sheer willpower. You’re better with your new darling. It’s strange, but it’s true.

Rules:

- If your heir is a werewolf, find the cure for lycanthropy. - Build or download a residential boarding school equipped with items from the Realm of Magic pack, especially cauldrons.  - Create a domestic unit consisting of 6 spellcaster teens with the Mean trait, a Virtuoso spellcaster with the Natural Mentor perk as the school principal, and your teenage heir.  - Become a spellcaster. - When the heir becomes a young adult, use the Inferniate spell to set the school on fire and move out of the domestic unit.  - Build or download an abandoned haunted house with a flower arranging table and move your heir there. - Become a Virtuoso and learn all the mischief spells. - Own a flower shop or street stall and sell flower arrangements for a living.  - Use the Potion of the Transcendent Charmer and the Potion of Alluring Aura to attract an Unflirty, Noncommittal, Hates Children partner.  - Have a child with that partner. 

Gen 10: Young And Beautiful

Career: Interior Decorator

Aspiration: Vampire Family 

Skill: Painting

Traits: Snob, Creative, Art Lover

Home: Vlad’s Castle in Forgotten Hollow 

Lot challenge/trait: Spooky

As a result of growing up in a haunted house full of pools of ghost goo and weird markings on the floors, you have a passion for decoration and home renovation. From a young age, you started watching the home decorator channel and learning how to paint so you could beautify your surroundings with art. The way your parent’s flower arrangements decay over time makes you sad. Why can’t beauty last forever? Why are most living things destined to die? You’ve met plenty of ghosts in your time, and they aren’t exactly aspirational. However, there is a type of occult you could praise and enthuse about all day long: vampires! They’re cool, they’re powerful, and most importantly, they’re immortal. So, when the opportunity to drink the ancient blood of a vampire arises, you take it without hesitation. 

As overjoyed as you are with your transformation, you’re keenly aware that eternity will eventually get lonely. You want a family that will never leave your side in the mortal coil of existence. You love your job as a home decorator, you’re superb at it, and your clientele idolizes you, so why not preserve a few of your admirers for posterity by feeding them the sweet elixir cursing through your veins? 

Now that you’re forever young and beautiful (you’ve made sure to treat yourself to a tweak or two under the knife), have seen the world, have done it all, and had your cake, your life couldn’t be more perfect. Yet, you still feel lonely. You start seeing someone you’re convinced is your soulmate in every aspect except two: their taste in décor is awful, and what’s worse, they don’t fancy immortality. In fact, they’re afraid of most vampires. Even though it breaks your heart, you have no choice but to respect their wishes and love them util they’re dead and got nothing but their aching soul. 

Rules:

- If your heir is a spellcaster, ask for the Rite of Dissolution. - Become a vampire and unlock the vampire creation perk. - Marry a mortal with opposite tastes in decor. You’re not allowed to turn them into a vampire.  - Complete the Vampire Family aspiration by turning your clients.  - Get plastic surgery by altering your sim’s features in CAS using the cas.fulleditmode cheat every time they get a promotion. Their dark form must remain unaltered. - Move into Vlad’s castle and redecorate it in a completely different style. - When your beloved dies, re-marry their ghost.

Hey! Been sick in bed for two weeks already and even though I'm feeling MUCH better (I'm getting up tomorrow! Yay!), I'm still struggling with some cough. Flu has become a major issue in this side of the world, especially for kids, so please get vaccinated!!

Of course, I've been making the most of this time and I've been catching up on a lot of books that were in my pendings (leaving them under the cut to avoid spoilers for non-VIP players), so I need to vent about them even though no one asked for it (The Ghost Of Us is pending because I’m still in chapter 3, and I want to make a special post about Open Hearts On Fire):

Hot Shot: Overall, I liked this story because I enjoyed the relationship between the MC and the LI. Even though the LI was a jerk at first, I think it's been ages since the last time we saw a straightforward LI (admitting they were falling for the MC in the middle of the book and not waiting until the last chapter? loved it!), who knows what they want, but who doesn't feel pushy or invasive. I also loved the respect and understanding the LI seemed to have for the MC when she tried to keep a hidden relationship because of the conflict it could have caused with her job. I mean, really, kudos to the writers for that. However, there were also things that ruined the book for me. First, this is one of those stories where we could have had more than one LI (I'm looking at you, Kels). The relationship with Adesh? Poorly written. And I'm not saying it because of his betrayal (I would never have talked to him again after that!), but because the writers tried so hard to make them besties and I'm sorry, but I had a hard time picturing them even as colleagues that get along. And then the ending... I mean, wtf was that?!?! What a terrible final chapter! From the writers pushing a "perfect" 30 diamond scene even though the LI was injured (seriously, I can't believe there was no mention of it during the scene), to the fact that we didn't see the LI’s dad in the final game after all that arc the writers gave us with him, and some details such as the MC "remembering" her life playing hockey (girl, you barely played ONCE in the whole story and there wasn't even a mention of your "career" in hockey), everything felt rushed and sloppy. Not a fan of it. And not a fan of the sequel either. This book should have remained a standalone.

The Deadliest Game: At first, I struggled with this story. The Deadliest Gambit was such a slow prequel that I had a hard time trying to connect with the book. But after I moved to The Deadliest Game and since the plot began to develop, I’ve been enjoying it a lot, to the point that it’s becoming one of my favorite new releases in 2024. Our gang is pretty smart (the weakest character is probably our nepobaby, Dante), and I like how the writers have portrayed Nick so far (he was a good person, but he was far from being perfect). Having to go back to the starting point right after we had discarded most people in the house as “the killer” felt like a nice change of pace, but to be very honest, now I feel completely lost about whom the killer could be. As per the romance, I’m not sure about romancing anyone yet. I gave Dante a chance because at first I thought he and the MC had a lot in common, but I don’t know. The relationship doesn’t seem to flow naturally after that first kiss, and now after a few chapters, Farah is becoming my favorite LI. However, I feel my MC is actually more worried about solving the case than dating anyone, so I might restart the book and remain single. PS: kudos to the writers for naming my country and the miners’ story lol

Filthy Rich: There isn’t much to say so far. Basically, the boy who broke our heart 10 years ago is back, he’s “filthy rich” and wants to date us. Also, the man happens to be a TV producer (just like the MC!) and he has the MC and her brother in mind to produce a new reality show that SCREAMS “The Kardashians”. Not a fan of the book so far; however, it’s only been 4 chapters, so I can’t really tell whether I like it or not. I like the fact that the MC can give the LI a piece of her mind, though. She hasn’t forgotten him, but she clearly won’t make things easy for him.

Along Came Treble: ohmigod what a headache! There are so many things I dislike about this book! First, I'm close to sending the MC to horny jail because she's just too much! Second, the LI. He is actually a cool guy, but the writers made him so similar to Raleigh Carrera (the boy band past, the tattoos, the rebel side) that it’s impossible not to compare them both (and if you love Platinum as much as I do, you’ll agree that Cai is not Raleigh). Third, the inconsistencies. At one point in the story, all of our belongings are stolen, including our laptop, but then, shortly after, we’re working with it? Fourth, our MC and the LI are way too different. Our MC is an intern trying to become a manager who cares about fame and recognition, and the LI only cares about his music. I’m not sure whether I see the romance between them having any future (but PB will definitely push for them to have their happily ever after). And finally, they’re trying to push the BD*SM narrative just like they did in Open Heart, by just adding a random scene that doesn’t make any sense, but this time, with a couple that barely know each other. What’s the point? Showing the LI is a “bad boy”? No sense! Funny thing, I think we’ve seen worse in this app.

Immortal Desires 2: I knew this book wouldn’t disappoint me. In fact, I binge read it in two days. The plot is very on point. I like how the writers reused the hunters vs. vampires’ conflict, but with new characters and a little twist that makes it look different and fresh. Also, the poly route is so *chef kiss* that I don’t regret choosing both Cas and Gabriel in the first book. Discovering both LIs past has been so nice, but discovering Cas’ new powers has been incredibly cool, I love them. However, there are many things I still don’t understand. The book constantly gives me the idea that Cas and Gabriel were turned forever ago and that they've been vampires for a really long time. Then why do their human pasts look so “modern”? I’m also confused about our MC’s abilities; I don’t think we’ve been given an explanation on why we get them (and I don’t know if we will). Is she some kind of special/gifted vampire? Is it because she doesn’t have a coven yet? I won’t deny they’ve been super useful, but not knowing why she’s been chosen to get the abilities just feels weird. Anyway, I can totally see a Book 3 coming (and PB has already been giving some hints), there is most definitely room for new plots.

I was gonna wait until I had a backstory for this sad boi, but the truth is I've been a bit lazy with him so I said "fvck it" and decided to post it now and then write the character sheet later

He doesn´t have a lore as wild as Dientes (Sorry that one is the favorite lol), but some interesting thins about him:

He´s a combat medic

Kinda a bit of a nepobaby, since he´s Natalya "Raptor" Orlov grandson and that maaaaaay have influenced some connections in the russian army

He´s very tall and when many people meet him at first, they are intimidated by his scary look, however, once you know him he´s actually a cinnamon roll.

Ok when I first made him, I didn´t know there was a character in the first call of duty games that's also named "Aleksei Ivanovich" but that´s just coincidence those two aren´t related at all

that´s pretty much everything I have from him until now, sorry Aleksei you´re like the middle child of my OCs/j

[oneforthemunny]

I have a Christmas fic idea rockstar!eddie and nepobaby first Christmas together, Christmas with the girls, sephy’s first Christmas or my favorite the Christmas after Eddie gets home from rehab (kind of sad but I just love that idea )

i was tossing around the idea of the first christmas back from rehab. they usually take a family trip to hawkins for the holidays so the girls can see wayne. he and nb used to go to nyc for new years and he'd perform at the ball drop in times square.

even if he was back for a while before, he's just hit with another wave of guilt and humbleness being home home back in indiana with his family.

very bittersweet type angst. maybe they do traditions he did as a kid to help him feel kinda grounded?

ahhh stop my brain's wracking!!!

[ragnarssons]

ok ATLA fans real question tho. This has nothing to do with anything live action or whatever, it's just pure cartoon-related stuff.

But did y'all really like the Katara at the North Pole plot? Because I mean I love it, I love Katara fighting as strongly as she does, standing up for herself against all odds and all. And as for choregraphy, it's one of my favorite fights.

But I always loved it, until it all fumbled on itself with the neckless thing. I hate, and yes, HATE the idea of Katara being a "nepobaby" and this is why she gets to learn waterbending - but all the other girls from the North Water Tribe don't get to even try. By nepobaby I mean that it's obviously Katara's parentage that opens this precise door to her and not... well the fact that she proved herself or actually changed mentalities.

In the episode right after, we do see that Katara is the only girl in the class (and at the end of Book 1, Pakku leaves the NWT, meaning he actually doesn't even stay to change his tribe's ways and include girls, like the man didn't change anything after Katara). And paralleling that, you have Yue, whose fate also never changes. She never gets to even voice her non-desire of being put in a forced marriage. Like yeah, her and Sokka oppose that to the idea of her having a duty to her tribe, and it resonates to Sokka's own dedication to his tribe, but... why don't they go further? Ofc time restriction but to me, poor Yue if she were meant to die could've had at least a self-affirming moment (especially when you create in the background another love story that got destroyed by the NWT's sexist ways, namely Pakku and Gran Gran).

It's also weird because then they put Pakku in the White Lotus. The same organization where Piandao is. Piandao who teaches sword fighting to Sokka because "the art of sword fighting shouldn't belong to one people" so huh?? I know everything was probably not planned as far ahead when writing Book 1 but it's still... 🤷‍♀️

Idk I've never actively searched if people already had this discussion but I just wanted to ask, revisiting some of Book 1 big storylines. To me, it always seemed like the Katara/Pakku thing was awesome, until the neckless really, then it kinda flops and loses all its sense, because then Katara stop actually fighting Pakku's sexism (and the dude just stops being sexist alltogether we don't even know why *shrugs* even tho he had horrible words and attitudes towards Katara before that) and the NWT's patriarchy, she just complies because she got the privilege to bypass all of it.
