#noemi does stuff

[biancadoes1]

Sorry if this has been asked already but does anyone know the deal with beautifulstranger996 on TT and what’s going on over there where she could be in legal trouble because of fake accusations against a few creators.

- https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMhGhp2K6/

I’m not 100% sure but this beautifulstranger996 might be the one who tried to doxx Caroline too. Before she went private I had seen some of the stuff she posted and it was pretty defamatory.

I've seen that page on TT and she's deranged af. She stays on private until she posts a video (usually after something Lukola related happens) lighting up a few well known fandom TikTokers (except for a select few 👀) to troll.

Tagging Nicola and Luke's sister in the majority of them? JVN once too. But most recently Charmaine. Noemi, Antonia's friend, and that India chick have been mentioned as well. Noemi even bookmarked one of the videos. It also seems, like within the past few hours, that Charmaine and Noemi have been tagged in the comments of a good number of videos.

It's odd though. They never tag Antonia and it's weird because this is the TT account that started the bullshit married in Cyprus rumors around the time Luke posted his BRB IG story. She deleted these stories but luckily I've obtained screenshots. Let's air her out shall we?

Troll behavior. Plain and simple. But she deleted these for one reason or another. Perhaps when she found out she looked like a fucking dumb ass? Possibly. Here's more screenshots from deleted posts.

She turned her attention to Sharon on TT. Sharon is well known for her analysis. Some people think she's reaching with her videos and some don't. Regardless, the fact that this BS bitch comes so hard for her and certain creators is weird.

In conclusion, THIS BITCH IS CRAY.

The fact that this person either can't spell at all, doesn't speak English fluently or is purposefully mixing up the spelling on these posts adds to the psychotic ass nature of these TikToks.

Come for shippers all you want. I know some people think my page is full of crazies...but this shit? This is someone obsessed with Nicola attempting to throw stones at her, Luke, and the fandom in general. The question I want to know is this.

Who are you, Beautiful Stranger? You definitely love Antonia, that much is clear with you tagging her friends constantly. Did you get all excited?? I bet it was the highlight of your life.

How about you stop hiding behind a private profile and start saying shit with your entire chest? Tagging people who don't need to be tagged in your illegible fucking video descriptions?

You want to fight with someone from the fandom?

Bitch I'm right here, ready and willing.

sad announcement

corporate has been on my ass for months and well unfortunately we're going to have to swap our content. inflation and stuff you get it.

from now on this blog only posts bottom female readers. so sorry for the inconvenience and pain this causes. im so sorry that it came to this but the focus groups are in and the numbers say that pathetic masochist bottoms are out and sadistic tops are in. i dont know yet how this is going to change the landscape of my content. i don't know how this will impact the characters you've grown to love.

some implements I've been pushed to make so far:

ares is no longer a wife he's now your husband. women don't want to call their strong masculine spouses wife its not sexy.

emil is mostly unchanged but now he doesn't love dick anymore he loves pussy. unforseen how this will change him.

nephite has had to go through some of the biggest changes. he's now an incredibly alpha chad farm boy who actually chases and captures his wife and keeps her tied in the shed. i know some of you will appreciate this change to his entire character.

silvan remains your pet however now you have no control over him and he does what he wants and takes whatever he wants from you. his helpless vampire mistress.

ajax has been cancelled for problematic behavior we discovered upon changing him to topping women only.

achilles is now a cool bad ass mob boss who buys you off the streets. all traces of masochism has been scrubbed from his personality.

noemie has been completely role swapped and you are now his pathetic simpering victim and he is an incredibly buff serial killer. women have no interest in trans men so that aspect of his character has been completely scrubbed. and for those of you saying "wait noemie was trans?" no. no he isn't.

seven has been cancelled for problematic behavior regarding women.

kao's darling has had the biggest shift and is now a soft waifish little healer who is delicate and needs to be protected at all costs. kao is a domineering abusive aggressor. as are most of the characters here.

amias has been kept much the same however now he just kidnaps you and forces you to live with him. there is no noncon if we don't think about it.

elias has been changed into an extremely muscular man who constantly breaks out of containment to have his way with you the daughter of one of the expert scientists.

phillip is much the same as well however he is younger to be more acceptable to a general audience and the darling has been turned into a pathetic helpless damsel who needs constant supervision from her older mentor like figure.

Today's (1/7/2025) Episode: All Natural

Noemi and Skye headed straight from the clinic to the market, where a bunch of old friends were waiting for them.

Elyse had quickly agreed to join the group, and when her mom had begged off Noemi invited Amaya so she too would have a friend (her husband clearly didn’t count). “Its so good to see you again!” Skye gushed when xe saw Elyse, earning xemselves a laugh from xir crush.

 “We hung out yesterday silly,” she replied “but its nice to see you too! Now come on!” she rushed on ahead, leaving Skye to follow slowly after.

With the teens off doing their own thing the adults took a look at what was available for sale. As they tested out the comfiness of some couches Luigi chatted with Peppino about his newest location. “So, branching out into Selvadorada, huh?” he asked, “How many clinics does that make now?”

“This will be my 5th” the ancient researcher of science and magic replied with a proud smile. “I never thought my odd little pregnancy breakthrough would end up in such high demand. Now that they have the option, I’m amazed at how many men come to me to get pregnant. Lots of male couples like your dads, of course, but many come on their own, or like your friend Beau have decided to carry their child instead of their female partner.”

“This trip to the market actually grew out of a recommendation from one of my clients – well actually two, which is a funny story…” he continued “If we see them, I’ll introduce you. For now, though, what do you think about this green one? I think it could be perfect for the waiting area.”

“Skye! What’s wrong?” Elyse asked when she realized her friend was lagging behind, a morose expression on xir face.

“Nothing, I’m fine.” Skye replied, forcing a smile, but she didn’t believe that for a second. “No, you’re not. Now tell me what’s up.”

Skye sighed “I got my cast replaced before we came here; the old one was too tight. Now my arm is sore. I’ve got some pain pills in my inventory.”

“You don’t need pills!” Elyse interrupted, “There’s so many natural remedies out there that are SO much better, and better for you, than whatever they put in those drugs. Come on, I’ll show you!” Skye wasn’t convinced, but xe let her lead xem towards the bubble machine setup a few feet away.

“I think I’m going to be sick!” Skye said, nausea from the strange golden liquid only adding to xir discomfort. “I don’t think this was a good idea.”

“I don’t know what happened” Elyse stared down at the nozzle in her hand with a puzzled expression. “According to the “bubbles for a better you” website this formulation is supposed to be great for relaxation and pain relief. Maybe this batch is just expired?”

“I see you found the bubble machine!” Amaya chuckled as she and Noemi came over to join them “These things can be a crazy good time, but you gotta be careful; the wrong ones can really mess you up!”

“Are you OK honey?” Noemi asked, noting her child’s distress “I really don’t think it’s a good idea for you to be mixing this stuff with your meds.”

“Oh, don’t worry, Skye hasn’t taken any meds.” Elyse replied cheerfully “I’ve been reading up on the healing properties of bubbles. Once we find the right formulation xe won’t need any pills. Right Skye?”

Before xe could respond Noemi snapped “There’s a time and place for natural remedies, but BUBBLES are NOT medication! They certainly are not a substitute for ANYTHING Skye’s doctor has prescribed or recommended! I hope I don’t need to remind YOU that xe is dealing with a broken bone!”

“I… I’m sorry” Elyse whispered “I was only trying to help. Skye, I think I better go. I’ll text you later. It was nice seeing you Ms. Arroyo, Aunt Noemi.” With that she stood abruptly and started walking back towards the teleporter.

“You had NO right to do that!” Skye cried, extremely hurt by Noemi’s words on Elyse’s behalf “how could you!? Elyse… wait!” Xe jumped up, walking as fast as xe could the direction she had fled.

“Please, don’t go!” Skye tried again, finally catching her attention as xe got closer to the embarrassed girl.

Elyse stopped and waited for xem to catch up, frowning as xe doubled over, still clearly in pain. “Skye, just take your meds, OK? I’ll wait.” Once xe had swallowed a couple pills she continued “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to make you feel worse, I really thought the bubbles would help.”

“I know” xe replied “I’m sorry mom snapped at you like that, she was totally out of line. Don’t leave, we can get some food and listen to the musicians.”

Elyse shook her head “No, I think its better if I get out of here, give her time to calm down… why don’t you come over when you get back and we’ll watch a show?” “I’ll come with you now.” xe insisted, but she shook her head again “I just want to be alone for awhile, but later, OK?”

“Can I see you out at least?” xe asked reluctantly. She nodded, smiling as she took her teddy bear’s hand. “Sure, it’ll be a lovely walk to the teleporter.”

[fwwm92]

okay i'm doing it. i'm making ocpost

the premise that my ocs exist within is basically that they're offshoots of the player character i made for my friend @styxspawn 's ttrpg campaign. i got carried away, hehe

All of these characters worked at a circus together, run by a man named Edward Maven and managed by his brother in law, Wilhelm Kaiser. Less than a year after Kaiser's mysterious death and his estranged daughter Beatrix's reappearance, Maven was found dead in his office, covered in severe burns. His mentee, small-time stage magician Ariel Maskelyne, was convicted of the murder, despite its myserious circumstances. My creative stuff basically centers on Ariel (my player character) and the other people who worked with him.

the setting is an alternate-history fantasy world in the 1890s, in a country called Laikor (essentially fantasy Britian. don't worry about it too much)

major character summaries below cut (I'll write some minor character summaries soon too, but these are the ones i'm going to talk about most)

Ariel Maskelyne

A 21 year old stage magician working for Edward Maven. He is a tall, pale skinned trans man with curly red hair. He has been working with Maven since his early adolescence. He speaks little of his childhood or family, and only in vague terms when he does. He enjoys playing cards and gambling, and is not above stealing, but he abhors violence.

At his best, Ariel is jovial and easygoing. He loves attention, whether he can get it by helping or by heckling, and he is given to class clown tendencies. He loves learning new tricks. He projects cheeriness and avoids expressing negative emotions--he views doing so as childish and embarrassing. This can lead to passive aggressive behaviors as he vents his frustrations with others through petty complaining and button-pushing. At his worst, he is paranoid and defensive. He is conflict-avoidant and prone to panic in stressful situations. He is obsessively private.

Lillian Cleary

A 28 year old book-keeper. She is a short, stocky Black butch lesbian with shoulder length braided hair, which she often pulls back from her face. She works for Maven under the auspices of her mentor and Maven's sister and business partner, Mary Kaiser. Due to Mary's dislike of her brother's "gaudy" business, Lillian has also been sent to keep Mary abreast of her brother's actions. When Lillian's former friend/classmate and Mary Kaiser's estranged daughter Beatrix appears, Lillian is suspicious and wary, especially when Mary's correspondence becomes irregular. Lillian studied the arcane with Beatrix in a neighboring country not long before, but they began to disagree after Beatrix started using increasingly powerful magic in personal situations.

At her best, Lillian is sensible, level-headed, and skeptical. She is a person who enjoys fixing things for the pleasure of having improved them, but this can cause fussiness. She is curious and loves learning for its own sake.At her worst, she is stubborn and critical, and is prone to snapping at others in moments of frustration or irritation. She can be very impatient.

Beatrix Kaiser

Beatrix is a 30 year old knife thrower and researcher of the arcane. She is a tall trans butch lesbian with shoulder length, light brown hair. Long estranged from her family, the prodigal daughter has returned with little sister in tow and a blessing from her mother, a letter suggesting to Maven that he might hire her into his family business.

At her best, Beatrix is driven, curious, and ambitious. She is an avid reader, and loves learning for its own sake. She is close to few people, but very loyal to those few. She is intensely protective of her little sister, Noemi. At her worst, Beatrix is callous and uncaring, especially to others than those few she's "chosen". She is disdainful of people she views as unintelligent.

Paloma Merlo

A 26 year old gymnast and trapeze artist. She is a short-ish, athletically built cis lesbian with dark skin and coily hair which she generally keeps styled away from her face, often with decorative clips. She is also an arcane of the Sun, born to a cleric of the Sun with what grew to be large, broad wings similar to those of a white dove. Though she is incapable of suspending herself in flight, she has always loved birds, and taught herself to fly in her own way. A well-known performer back home, she traveled across the ocean to Laikor after the dissolution of her unsuccessful marriage to an old friend, craving the freedom of a fresh start.

At her best, Paloma is bright, energetic, and charismatic. She is graceful and courteous. She was highly educated by her socialite parents and the tutor they hired for her; she is well read, with a special love for poetry, and she can read and speak multiple languages. At her worst, Paloma is indecisive and prone to overthinking. She may go out of her way to "manage" a situation socially and become overwhelmed. She is proud of her skills in gymnastics, and one way to deeply annoy her is to prevent her from practicing.

🗣 twofold!! talk about your muse Carrie and also mayhaps noemi cause she is my babygirl rn

//OKIE excellent

Carrie has always been a character that I'm really really really really attached to. Was introduced to the '76 movie when I was a little kid and had no idea what was actually going on (and somehow was... under the impression... her mother was a good person at the time????? I don't know what gave kid me that impression, I must have blocked all the awful out, I don't know, I was genuinely surprised Pikachu to rewatch when I was older and see that she was so violent and scary. this feels like when I watched T.ales from the Crypt as a kid and then was surprised Pikachu when I was older to find out just how much sex there was in it)

once I was capable of fully comprehending what I was actually watching Carrie became a fave, I began watching every film adaptation and comparing and contrasting and whatnot

and just. my favorite thing about Carrie was always that despite the marketing going hard on the "horror" aspect of it, the actual films were always more centered on the tragedy. Most of the horror I'd been exposed to at that point was campy stuff and/or other things you could just turn your brain off for but with this one it presented a remarkably real situation (someone getting born into an awful family/awful circumstances and getting bullied as a result) and amped it up with superpowers

and if you come from a religious background and have a faith you've ended up leaving, I do think that aspect of the story hits that much harder. Margaret is definitely on the more extreme end of the spectrum, no doubt, but her story still brings on strong themes of religious control and fear of upsetting religious family members

AND CARRIE'S NOT EVEN REALLY IN MY SITUATION. SHE BELIEVES IN THE SAME GOD MARGARET DOES AND ISN'T LEAVING SHIT. MARGARET'S JUST WILD ABOUT IT. MDKLSAMDA

man I remember for the longest time thinking Margaret was unrealistic because I'd never heard of anyone considering a period a sign of sinning I WAS A FOOOOOOL my own freaking sister asked my mom in the car if periods came about because Eve sinned and I kinda did an internal double take

but yeah as a character. I love Carrie herself. She's just a sheltered teenager trying to break out and live her life but practically everything is going against her. she was one of only a few characters I could see literally killing a bunch of other people and still end the story all like "she was baby" mldsklamd

NOT TO PUT DOWN THE IMPACT OF WHAT SHE ACTUALLY DID, AND I THINK THE TAKE THAT THOSE PEOPLE DESERVED TO BE SLAUGHTERED IS AS COLD AS IT GETS

but that is also kind of why I prefer the adaptations where she snaps and goes into a more trance-like state, it kind of. keeps the sympathy of the character more for me, when Carrie is conscious of what she's doing it makes the tragedy of it a lot less poignant to me personally, because it becomes very difficult not to see her as a monster when she is actively, consciously killing people

(and yes I am aware her consciously killing people was in the actual book, but I am sorry, I still think the story is worse for it)

goodness this is a novel and I haven't even gotten to Noemi yet

ok so of all the people in my Void Noemi could have picked to smooch. She picked Schatz.

... that is a choice

JKJK she has very good taste, and I do think it suits the utter chaos goblin nature I have seen from her so far. I like that she has both helped Schatz find a way to engage in thrills without snatching people's stuff

and completely wrecked the tavern all while thinking she was just making Trost happy with her voice

AND I STILL NEED TO CONTINUE THE VERHEILER INTERACTION BUT I AM SO SORRY ABOUT THE HOT GLUE INCIDENT NOEMI

she also got Schatz to go on a completely wild "It's not like I walked into a morgue" ramble and say the most crazy stuff he's ever said so that was amazing

Happy STS! How do your OCs decorate for holidays?

Hello! Sorry for just now getting to this!

I feel like TSP and SOTL will be too hard to explain for this, and honestly I feel like taking the easy way out and doing IWAJAD characters since I need to develop them anyway, and there's only four of them! This will be easy.

I'm also gonna assume "the holidays" is referring to December time stuff. Also for simplicity.

Kyla - Her family celebrates Christmas in the Buddhist way, and they'll do so through decorating a tree with lights and some Buddhist ornaments. Usually Bodhi Day celebrations will bleed into Christmas time, as they already have a tree decorated with candles.

Noemi - Her family is very Catholic, so they lean very hard into the religious side of Christmas. Advent, Christmas Eve church service, nativity scenes, etc. Their decorations around the house show little of Santa and a lot of Jesus.

Ty - Also comes from a Christian family, but they allow Santa to be shown around the house. They have a little nativity scene, they decorate their tree full of ornaments that Ty made as a kid, plenty of pictures of the family, or Hallmark ornaments. There's Christmas stuff in every room, including towels in the bathroom and a Santa soap bottle.

Phinessa - Her family doesn't celebrate any December holidays other than New Year's Eve, so there won't really be any decorations. However, Phinessa does love some winter themed decor, so they may put some things out.

This was fun. Thanks for the ask!

IWAJAD intro

IWAJAD tag list (ask to be +/-): @thepeculiarbird @mrbexwrites @drchenquill

[soupedepates]

"How is it going at home?"

"Bodya is getting quite rowdy. Dad doesn't know what to do. As for mum she tries to hide it but she isn't doing well. And Zofia just moved with her so yeah, that's a problem."

"What does Zofia do at mum's?"

"Well, she isn't at mum's mum's. She is at baba's. Because Zofia doesn't like mum's girlfriend."

"She doesn't even know Idalia."

"I know right? But even if Zofia is our best cousin, she's still our uncle's daughter. Her coming out doesn't change years of bad education. But I've heard she's getting better."

"And what do mum and dad want to do about me?"

"They're talking about a clinic. It's far away, but it's good. Like when you went in rehab, but better. Mum's a bit reticent, but she's just worried. Dad is really, really tired. He only sleeps at night because I make him."

"Family's exploding for the second time, heh. This time it's my fault."

"It isn't exploding, Czci. Jacenty and Adelajda aren't even close to realise divorce is a possibility. But yeah. Things aren't great. But not your fault; the shitstorm was coming anyways."

"You sure?"

"Heh. I'm listening at doors and reading texts and email for months now. Perhaps two years now. Since mum and dad have rekindled a friendship, in fact, for Jacenty and grandma started to get really annoying."

"Oh, the 'you don't discover you're a lesbian at almost fifty'?"

"And grandma becoming so Catholic even auntie grew wary. I didn't like how they were trying to influence dad and Bodya at the time so I had to take counter measures."

"You sound like mum when talking like that."

"I thought I was more doing the serial killer voice."

"Well, the accent does it."

"...Right."

"How's high school?"

"Boring. Like. Really boring. I'm spending the days reading and doing witchcraft at my desk, and because the teachers just love me and you're at the hospital I can do whatever I want without facing consequences. I read tarot to our philosophy teacher, lately."

"And Marek?"

"He will propose soon. I'm sure of it."

"And... Noemi? She hasn't come yet..."

"Don't you know?"

"What should I know?"

"Oh you don't know."

"Agatka, if something happened to my girlfriend, please..."

"I'm not sure of anything. Ok? I just happen to know from baba that Noemi called her for medical advice. And I hope you didn't do anything wrong for as you're back on your two feet baba's coming for you."

"Oh man, I'm screwed."

"And you laugh at this terrible menace!"

"Baba won't do anything, she loves me! I'm the favourite!"

"That's mean for your poor twin sister... I shall retire and cry now. Bye."

"Nooo, Agatushka, I love you too.........."

"But yeah. Stuff happened and Noemi isn't coming to school lately. That's. Worrying. She doesn't sound ill nor distraught on the phone, well she does be distraught because of you but that's besides the point, so I really don't know what's up with her."

"Can you investigate for me?"

"Promise. Can you do me a favour in return?"

"Sure."

"When they'll send you to the clinic... Come back sober. And stay sober. I will kill my weed to make sure of it."

"Oh no you won't."

"Oh yes I will. You better stay alive you little shit. Outliving you if you die at 17 isn't glorious, you see?"

"Hey! Hey... Agatka, don't cry, okay? I promise I'll be better."

yippe another mf sun haven oc ໒꒰ྀི´ ˘ ` ꒱ྀིა

this one is a nice good self insert - type girlie since we simply must cope with life somehow!

so yeah here’s some stuff about my sh oc, NOEMIE 🥀🕯️🦇

🥀noemie’s nicknames : mimi , emmie

🥀noemie’s love interest : n/a , tbd, possibly darius but it’s unrequited!

🥀noemie’s friends : noemie can seem a bit off putting and intimidating at first, but she’s actually quite a sweetheart when you get to know her. friends w more folks in Withergate.

🥀noemie is a vampire - with nice sharp fangs and zero tolerance for the sun!

🥀if i had to describe Noemie in four words, they would be : teasing , curious , passionate , ——-

🥀noemie is currently a withergate resident - never bothering to leave said place since she’s so incredibly sensitive and HATEFUL towards the sun. A place with no sun? oh, sign her up!

🥀if she is for SOME REASON out in the sun, you’ll find her with some dark shades on, and a black lace parasol. while she can’t DIE from the sun- it’s beyond unpleasant for her- and can harm her physically.

🥀noemie does not drink bl00d. she technically COULD, if she wanted to, but she complains that she doesn’t like the ‘bitter taste’ and doesn’t like ‘being so close to someone’ to get some from them. instead, she just eats sweets- a LOT of sweets. but being the being she is- it doesn’t affect her in any way- she doesn’t need to even eat in the first place, so it doesn’t matter what she eats!

🥀absolutely despises the sun. HATES it. LOATHES. CANNOT STAND! she wishes it away everyday and cannot understand how ANYONE enjoys such miserable sunlight!

🥀naturally, she was extremely grateful that a place like withergate exists. she doesn’t have to worry about the sun bothering her anytime!

🥀noemie has lived in wg ever since withergate became a thing. before withergate tho- she would constantly hide away from the sun- only being awake and being active at night. she stays very clear of any place that HAS sun; which is about everywhere ! but if she has everything she needs in one place, why go anywhere?

🥀noemie doesn’t care to get her hands dirty, and always figured that she could make herself a living WITHOUT working or getting her hands dirty. So! her current occupation is posting on WitherTube - posting mostly skincare / beauty and other related content. this has gained her some popularity among withergate- but nothing crazy.

🥀noemie is rumored to have a thing for mister prince darius- but she obviously denies these rumors. she knows he probably wouldn’t care much for her anyway- so she decides to mostly admire him from afar.

🥀always complaining about xyla fr ;; always complaining about how xyla and darius should just marry already! losers! always teasing each other smh…

🥀i don’t have a full backstory for her yet rip </3

🥀kinda like to flirt and is surprisingly kinda good at it. she also has quite the pair of fangs!!!

i feel like i’m missing a lot but oh well! hope y’all like her ♡ :› i’ll figure out her looks eventually too xd

[id-element0]

My legacy house keeps crashing so I switch to Misti's house for the evening after excluding the legacy household from SP stories so they wouldn't do stupid stuff.

I find Noemi still trying to cheer her mother up, while Vickie contemplates some other stuff. She's married to Gucci's son Homer but they live under different roofs. She invites him over to discuss the matter and manages to convince him to move in. Although Homer wants to move to his own place, there isn't any vacant house in the town so he has no choice.

Yet the first thing he does after moving in is to complain about the dirty dishes. In his defense, this is the dirtiest house in the whole town. I'd know since Fendi does house visits to everyone.

[Insert Clever Title Here] (Super Sim Update)

Three of four grandchildren down, one to go to finish Stella's Big Happy Family aspiration. (Grandchild #4 is in the works but hasn't been born yet!)

Meet:

Sawyer Townsend, daughter of Cade and Luna (already aged up to a toddler, because her sibling is on the way);

Preston Bailey-Moon, son of Kinsley and Orange; and

Nathalie Townsend, daughter of Tate and Noemi (god the lighting in the Caliente house sucks, but I'm loving the game's dedication to female N names in their family).

As for the Successful Lineage aspiration, the only thing left is for a child or grandchild to reach the top of their career -- I had Kinsley join the Barista career, because I knew she'd join at the top level (3) just because of her skills; however, the part-time careers apparently don't count. Booooo! So now I guess I'm going to have to play Cade through a career. I did have him join the Law career, like his dad... maybe I can move him home for a bit? I have to give it some thought.

I did manage to get Stella to complete the Scientist career by having breakthroughs at home and going to work alone, so I didn't have to deal with the unresponsiveness glitches. EA released a hotfix patch before I played, so I didn't need to use Turbodriver's fix after all. I still have some unresponsiveness issues occasionally, but it's not nearly as bad as when Stella was at work, so I think the Scientist career is just broken (again/still).

I had her purchase a Retail lot in Newcrest, too, which I've named Waters-Townsend Galleries. The idea was to sell paintings (and other random shit from her inventory) for now, and whatever other stuff comes along with the other careers/skills/aspirations... but Retail lots really, really suck, so I don't know how much effort I'm going to put into that.

And that wraps up Get to Work! So now, it's on to Spa Day. I'm hopping between all of the aspirations - nearly done with Inner Peace, but it's slow going trying to do the 40 freaking instances of peaceful surroundings.

Since Stella's currently technically unemployed, I had her and Dexter take a little daytrip to Tartosa, since I just (finally) picked up the Wedding Stories pack (i.e., it finally went on enough of a sale).

I just love these two. I'm going to be so sad when Dexter dies... might have to bring him back and turn him into an immortal vampire or spellcaster or something, just so they can be together forever!

I mean:

Stella gets this notification all the time about Dexter, but this was the first time I saw him get it about her. To be fair, I haven't really played him much, mostly just focused on Stella and Cade, when he was in the house. Dexter just kind of does his own thing. However, since I was sending Stella to work alone to avoid the Scientist career bugs, I had more time to actually play with Dexter... and then he got this pop-up, and I swooned.

If it ain't like Stella and Dexter, I don't want it!

Today's (10/23/2024) Episode: Take A Breath

When they arrived at the medical clinic Luigi and his family were whisked quickly to the private room they’d requested.

“Thanks so much for protecting our privacy” Luigi told the medical assistant when she arrived to begin the exam.

“Not a problem Mr. Lawbourne” she replied, “We’re always happy to help.” She pulled up Skye’s chart on the computer before turning to her patient “I see you’ve been having some trouble breathing lately. Can you tell me a little bit more about how that feels when you notice it?”

“Every time I teleport my chest feels funny, and I start coughing a lot.” Skye frowned “It happened one time when I was playing tag with my friends at school too, but I don’t like to do that anymore.” Noemi and Luigi exchanged a glance then but didn’t comment.

“I’m sorry to hear that” the assistant smiled kindly. “Thank you for the fantastic explanation! Today we’ll run some tests, I promise they won’t hurt, and hopefully help you feel better. Does that sound good?” Skye didn’t look up but nodded slightly and let her get started.

At the end of his examination Skye was diagnosed with Asthma.

The doctor did his best to explain the disease in a way the young sim could understand: “With asthma, teleporting or exercising can cause your lungs to start making thick sticky stuff called mucus” he said. “That’s why you start having trouble breathing. The good news is we have medicine to help you feel better fast when it happens.”

“Mom, Dad” he went on “I’m going to give you some resources to review so you can learn how to help Skye manage his new diagnoses.” “I know a bit about it” Luigi told him “my great great grandpa Don has dealt with it for centuries.”

"It isn’t uncommon for asthma to run in families actually” their provided smiled “though in your case it seems like it skipped a few generations!”

Luigi and Noemi talked with Dr Anderson for awhile, learning more about next steps for follow-up and things they could do, such as creating an Asthma Action Plan, to help others know how to help their boy in case of an attack. Afterward he asked: “Now Skye, do you have any questions before I go?”

Skye hadn’t really understood everything they’d been discussing, but he did have one important thing to ask “You said the medicine will make me feel better. Does that mean after I take it, I won’t have asthma anymore?”

The adults in the room frowned. Luigi reached out to place a comforting hand on his son's shoulder as the doctor answered, “Unfortunately there is no cure for asthma, so you’ll always have it, but as long as you keep your inhaler in your inventory it should make you feel better quickly next time you have trouble breathing.” Skye’s face crumpled at his answer. He buried his head in his dad’s chest; big fat tears falling freely at the news.

The doctor left then to see his next patient, telling them as he went “take all the time you need before you go; we have plenty of other exam rooms.”

Skye calmed down slowly as Noemi moved to sit across from him “I know you’re worried, but we’ll do everything we can to help you adjust.”

“Now that we know what’s wrong” Luigi continued “we’ll be able to help. When I was your age, I learned I had Eczema. Once we understood what was causing my issue, my dads got me that special lotion you see me use and it made a big difference, just like your new inhaler will do for you.”

“We love you so much, and we promise you won’t have to go through this alone.” Noemi finished, finally earning a smile from her glum little boy.

“Well, that was awful” Luigi lamented as he and Noemi waited for Skye to come out of the restroom “I know what he’s going through, and it sucks.”

Noemi nodded “I was really hoping it was just some short-term infection but given his symptoms I’m not really surprised.”

The pair fell silent when Skye rounded the corner. As they left the medical clinic, heading towards the vision center a short walk away, Luigi took Noemi’s hand in his. Squeezing it tight he silently hoped against hope that Skye wouldn’t get anymore bad news at his next appointment.

Helloooooo! Give your OC a minor annoying habit (maybe they always leave lights on or they never put dishes in the dishwasher...) Can be general, or home- or work-related, etc… as long as it annoys their fellow sims but just a bit ;))

Ooooh! Let's go!!

Melany is a perfectionist, so I imagine she would straighten/rearrange things on people's desks at work lol.

Nick... always has something in his throat and clears it 2947492 times a day. 😅

Anissa... She just talks too much, in general. She probably talks out loud when she's doing stuff, and people think she's talking to them. When they say, "Huh?" She looks at them crazy and says, "I wasn't talking to you!!"

Noemi probably leaves stuff open like the fridge, cabinets, drawers...drives the family nuts!

Nate... I could imagine him having some dumb phrase he says all the time because as charming as he is, he's quite corny lol.

Kameron... I can't imagine anyone (but Nadia lol) thinking he's annoying, but everyone is annoying sometimes lol. Let's see...he's paranoid and has a military background...he probably ALWAYS has to sit facing the door when out.

Jorden... He probably has an annoying little jig he does when playing cards and he's about to slap down his winning hand lol.

Nadia... I probably shouldn't put her business out there like this. She's already mad about her wedding hair looking a bit gray. 😂 She hates dishes laying around the house, and it's annoying to everyone because they'll have a drink, go to the bathroom or something, and the glass will be gone whether they were done or not lol.

Thanks for this ask, Elsa! It was fun!

[ace-trainer-risu]

oh here! i’ll come ask you for book recs lol. do you have any spooky and/or autumn-y book recs? or just your fave books :)

First of all, I'm sorry this took me SO long to answer. I want to say I've been busy but it's just been general [waves hand vaguely] life.

ANYWAY thank you for asking! I actually don't read scary stuff a lot b/c I'm a wimp, but I have a few spooky/autumnal books up my sleeves! Let's see what we've got!!

1) The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters

Let me just start by saying that Sarah Waters is one of my absolute favorite authors ever! All her novels are suspenseful, twisty historical novels with great female and queer characters. Although, fair warning, actually The Little Stranger is like her one novel that isn't queer, but it is VERY good. If you read The Little Stranger and like it, please read Fingersmith and/or The Paying Guests.

The Little Stranger is set in the countryside of post-WWII England and follows a mild-mannered doctor as he becomes increasingly involved in the lives of the family living in the local, increasingly decrepit, possibly haunted mansion. Think Downton Abbey but creepy. Strange things keep happening inside the house, from dog bites to mysterious sounds to creepy black spots. Literally just typing that gave me goosebumps. It seems like someone may be out to get the family, but who...or what? Is it simply the ghosts of their own painful memories, or is something more? Sarah Waters is excellent at lush, intricate historical detail, and she leans into that here to create an atmosphere of slowly building dread and horror and mystery.

That being said, as a person who isn't normally a fan of horror, I don't think this book is too scary. It's more of an atmospheric, psychological horror than a jump-scare, bloody horror. It's not a book that will give you nightmares (probably), but you might lie awake thinking about it.

Also. Pro-tip. As a haunted(?) house story, the house is obviously fairly central to the story. Dear fellow Americans, keep in mind that the British refer to the floors of a building differently than us. For Americans, the ground-level floor is called the first floor, the floor above that the second floor, etc. For the British, the ground-level floor is the ground floor, and the floor above that is the first floor, etc. There's all sorts of creepy references to characters hearing noises above them on the first floor, but I was just like, Why are they always in the basement?

2) Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno Garcia

This and the above are two very different books, and yet they are both set in the mid-1900s and both are about weird, creepy, maybe-haunted houses. What can I say, I like gothic fiction.

After our heroine, Noemi, receives a bizarre, borderline incoherent letter from her beloved cousin, she sets out to visit her in the literally decaying mansion she resides in with her husband and his new family deep in the countryside of Mexico. All Noemi wants to do is persuade her cousin to come back home with her, but her cousin's new in-laws are very determined not to let that happen...or to let Noemi leave either. Secrets abound in the bizarre house and even creepier nearby cemetery, and soon Noemi finds that she too is suffering from bizarre dreams and visions...although, are they just dreams?

This book is so weird, but in such a good way? I read it for a book club and every week we had increasingly bizarre theories about what was going on, we were googling alchemy and fungi and St George, and some of our theories were even right. Although definitely not all. Another very twisty one that keeps you guessing.

In terms of scariness, interestingly I think there's more overtly creepy and horrifying moments in this novel than The Little Stranger, but I found TLS more overall scary? But that may be because I read it quickly, which I think is the ideal setting for suspenseful stuff, and I read Mexican Gothic over a longer amount of time since it was for a book club. This one does have some more typical horror elements to it, but I don't think it's more creepy than terrifying.

3) The Echo Wife by Sarah Gailey

I listened to this one as an audiobook and the audiobook is excellent so would recommend that, but have no doubt it would also be great to physically read.

Oh my god this book...it's more thriller than horror, but I think it fits the brief. There were multiple moments listening to this book that I literally gasped or said "OH MY GOD!" out loud, and there are moments which are very creepy and horrifying. There's a particular scene in the backyard... Again, incredibly suspenseful and twisty. And the character development and character psychology is just! really really good! There's also really interesting and knotty feminist stuff which is a lot more complicated and nasty than some of the "girlboss" stuff which is popular right now.

Super minimal summary: All you really need to know is that it is a sci fi novel about a scientific researcher trying to pick up her life after her marriage has imploded, only for everything to go BATSHIT WRONG. Trust me, that's all you need to know, it's better to go into this not knowing what's going to happen or what to expect. I had no clue what this novel was about when I started it, and holy shit. Very good book, absolutely recommend this if you want some super suspenseful, creepy sci fi that will make you say "oh my GOD" repeatedly.

Okay, shifting gears a little now b/c autumn isn't just spooky, it's also cozy and restful and daydreamy!

4) The Thinking Woman's Guide to Real Magic by Emily Croy Barker

This isn't maybe a cozy book per se, but it's a great book to cuddle down with on a dreary day and lose yourself in. If you've ever asked yourself, "What would it be like if you crossed Pride and Prejudice with Howl's Moving Castle except the wizard was way worse but somehow still sexy" - then you should read this book! I actually came across this book b/c I was like, I wanna read a book that's a portal fantasy but for adults, and this book was like OH here's everything you wanted.

It's about a grad student, Nora, who has totally stalled out on her dissertation and is at a shitty wedding when she accidentally wanders through a portal into a beautiful, fantastical fairy world. At first, everything is amazing and literally perfect...but surprise surprise, not all as is it seems, and soon everything goes to, how should I put it, shit. Nora escapes, but rather than returning home, she finds herself trapped in a far more dreary realm. But not one without it's own charms and it's own magic, and Nora finds herself the student-slash-sorta-captive of the crochety, sexy, maybe-killed-his-wife magician Aruendiel* and she begins to learn magic herself.

Unlike the above books, this is not a fast-paced, twisty book, and I think if you go into this expecting high fantasy along the lines of Game of Thrones, you may be disappointed. It's not really a typical high-fantasy novel, it's more of a cross of an 18th/19th century realist novel, a fairy tale, and a fantasy novel. But if you want that, then it's REALLY good! I loved this book! And the magic in it is so cool, something about the way its described feels so visceral and real and like you could really do it if you just tried hard enough. There is a romance and it's totally, intentionally hashtag problematic, but it's very laid back, very slow burn, so I think even if you aren't a person who digs romance you can still enjoy this. If you're looking for a feminist-leaning fantasy novel that you can just sink into and lose yourself in, this is the perfect book. You will long to magically fix broken plates.

5) The Ruthless Lady's Guide to Wizardry by C.M. Waggoner

Honestly I can't even justify why I think this one is an autumn book. It simply is. It's autumn colored in my head. It is the coziest book I have ever read about necromancy and crime. Also I just want to recommend it. This is another one that I listened to as an audiobook and it's also a good audiobook, for those who are interested. But it also means I will not be able to spell absolutely any of the character's names.

This novel follows Delly, an enterprising young scoundrel of a fire witch with a teeny tiny gin habit as she attempts to support herself and her hot-mess of a mom in the roughest neighborhoods of Fantasy-City-That-I-Can't-Remember-The-Name-Of. Lice...gate? When Delly comes across an advertisement for a bodyguarding job for young women for a hefty fee, it seems like the answer to definitely not all but at least some of her problems. She accepts, along with an interesting assortment of other sorcerous young ladies, including a wonderfully bitchy Absentia (my love), a young woman who can turn into a boar, boar girl's necromancer mother, and the very sexy part-troll Winn, who in my imagination looks like Gwendoline Christie and talks like Miranda Hart. Which. Perfect woman. Winn being a fine, wealthy young lady, Delly can't help but think to herself that it wouldn't be such a bad thing if Winn happened to fall in love with her and carried her off to be rich and spoiled the rest of her life.

Of course, things quickly don't go to plan, and soon Delly and her companions find herself caught up in wicked schemes of murder, drugs, and an undead mouse named Buttons who says BONG. I love Buttons SO MUCH.

This book is just a silly romp of a novel which worms into your heart and your brain. It's fun and cute and gay, and also it made me cry. I haven't stopped thinking, "Not quite regulation hammerball" since I listened to it like half a year ago.

Also, while I'm here, this novel is set in the same world as and features a few of the same characters as Unnatural Magic. Which is also a hell of a book. Literally the best bisexual relationship I have ever fuckin read. It's a winter book tho, so I simply can't go into it here.

Aaaaand...that it's! Happy autumnal reading :)

1, 20, 33, 36 + nalpure/noemi

thank you, Dani! 🖤

1. How do they fall asleep? Wake up? Any daily rituals?

Nalpure is def more of a nocturnal lady, and I imagine Noemi to be as well? she goes to bed pretty late and either wakes up in time for work or, if it's a day off, can sleep in till like, noon. if Noemi isn't there then Nalpure will probably tinker with tech or read a book until she's tired enough to pass out, but if Noemi's there then she'll read to her sometimes until they're both asleep. :') her morning routine typically consists of taking a shower and making coffee, and I could imagine them making sure they have at least one meal together if they can being a thing?

20. What does their home look like? Their room?

Nalpure, on her own, doesn't really decorate a whole lot and would have all the basic utilities, but that's it. kind of gloomy to look at. feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but Noemi gives me the impression that she would rather not live like that, and she brings in a lot more light, decor, and color to their home if/when they move in together. plenty of plants for Noemi, some pretty decorations, some cushions. I've been trying to decorate Vaiken to match this headcanon, actually. lol.

in-game, the plan for their bedroom itself is for it to be that room on Vaiken with a view of the fleet because how big the other room is keeps throwing me off. one-way glass only, of course, nobody can look in and they can pull down curtains when they want to block the view. I feel like they'd both enjoy a canopy bed? overall just something cozy and nicely decorated that they can both relax in.

33. What kind of presents do they get each other? Do they only do it on special occasions?

I can't speak for Noemi, but Nalpure very much enjoys getting presents for Noemi when she finds something she thinks she would like (once she got past the initial "what if she hates it and also me and I screw this up" anxiety). definitely not just a special occasions thing, it mostly depends on when she finds something nice and thinks "oh, my girlfriend would love that." lots of pretty stuff, some plants for Noemi to kill, shoes, etc. she loves spoiling her.

36. What’s their greatest strength as a couple? Their weakness?

obviously a YMMV, but I could see just how much they understand and relate to each other being both their greatest strength and their greatest weakness. they've both done awful things they feel guilty over, and they both just get it in a way that very few others in their lives could, and the fact that they can forgive the other and love her for it? *chef's kiss*

but on the other hand, that same understanding might lead to this thing where they're both placing themselves in poor long-term situations because of their mutual guilt? the fact that they both stay in the Empire because of their desire to make amends, even though it would be better for them both to leave, but since they both understand that guilt, I feel like they wouldn't be inclined to try and convince the other to give up.
