SIM DONATION DRIVE: "1992" EDITION

i need to fill in leonor's 1990s dating history for story reasons, so i am soliciting sims from you wonderful, talented, generous people. if you'd like to donate someone, check out THIS FORM ♥️

for guidelines, see below, & let me know if you have questions !

i want to fill in leonor's dating history for the period from roughly 1993 to 1998. i'd like to have these exes attend her big, giant, extravagant wedding in 2001; i will be doing some Yet To Be Planned media coverage of said dating history (something like this stuff). as a treat, because i love to take pictures of other people's sims, i'll probably do some random photoshoots like these as well :^) [you can have leonor's files for your own purposes, if you so desire.]

i have no idea how many sims y'all're gonna donate or if they'll all be the same level of compatible, so: i'll try to incorporate as many as i can but, realistically, would have to choose if there are more than 5-6 options. this isn't a bachelorette challenge, so it would theoretically be based on which characters make sense for leonor and the timeline.

not all of the form's questions are required, but more detail is welcome ! entirely up to you how much fleshing out you'd like to do beyond the basics. i provided vague prompts, some which are optional, so ... go wild or don't ! if you want to discuss any of it before you submit the form (or after), then please don't hesitate to reach out.

your sims can be from uspana or somewhere else, btw. if they're not from uspana, they might be from the fictional country your story is set in, generic Simerica™, literally anywhere else ... if you don't state it, i'll just make something up that feels convenient sdjhfs they can be existing characters or new ones you create for this purpose; it's all up to you !

i am assuming you're familiar with the spinoff story OR leonor as a character, in some way or shape or form. you may know the story better than i do or have scrolled her tag on my blog earlier today for the very first time or somewhere in between. either way ... a little familiarity would help, i imagine !

leonor's existing love interests include: arturo, a very sweet and thoughtful son-of-a-politician (circa 1986-1990); renzo, a very famous actor who loves music and cutoff shorts and doing drugs (1991-1992); andre, a very happily married and painfully shy father of three who also happens to currently be his country's king (1992, 2016–); dan, a very chill tech founder who enjoys, like, space travel and wearing fanny packs and letting his wife do affairs and stuff, whom she marries in 2001 (circa 1998–).

leonor doesn't have a type, and there are no gender restrictions. she likes people who are interesting—peculiar, even. she's a wealthy princess and a government employee by 1993-1994, so that may affect either your sim's occupation and / or the necessity of a "how'd they meet" backstory. her birth year is 1970, and she’s more likely to go for agemates or older rather than younger people (at least while in her twenties, anyway). she could theoretically reconnect with anyone post-2001 but pre-2016 on account of the open marriage, although that feels unlikely / case-by-case.

okay, that's all i got for now ... thanks for reading this far !

[bewaretheidesofmarchyall]

what the fuck is the Wire Mother book. Sociology has lore now?

oh boy okay

so you remember the Divergent books? the YA boom of the early 2010's? The Wire Mother was one of those series. they turned the Harlow's monkey experiments into dystopia factions.

yeah. i know. bear with me

The first book, The Wire Mother (2010) is pretty standard YA dystopia fare. There's this girl named Leo Groves (the Leo's short for Leonore) who lives in the court of the Cloth Mother, a city where people live in comfort and camaraderie and a general vibe of hold hands around the campfire and sing, except for the people who die at random. This is accepted with unsettling what-can-you-do calm from the main characters. (Eventually, it's revealed that's happening because only a 1/5th of the food served in the city is real, so most of the people are dropping dead of starvation but their bodies are quickly hurried away as to not kill the vibe, so no one worries all that much about it).

Which could have been cool speculative fiction! A handy story about desensitization to violence or complacency or something. Unfortunately, this was 2010 YA, so the concept is quickly kicked under the bed in favor of. yeah. A love triangle. Leo, being a special little narratively significant thing, finds her way to the mysterious other city on the other side of her hometown, the court of the Wire Mother. And when she's there, she meets a boy. Coil 54810.

Coil goddamn 54810.

That brooding son of a bitch. His last name is 54810 because the concept of last names and family doesn't exist in the court of the Wire Mother, only functionality, so 54810 is just the number of Coils there's been in the city. He's not a clone or anything, it's just the amount of people who've had that name. It's like being named Jeremy 54810. Killer of plot pacing. Swoopy of hair. He would have deserved to be named Jeremy.

God, anyway, I'm talking a lot about this. Anyway: The Wire Mother is exactly as good as the average YA dystopia book from the time period. It has some high points (the Cloth and Wire mother are cool ominously looming entities, and the main antagonist Jane-Mary has a level of batshit mad science energy to her that makes her the most fun villain in the series) and some low points (the forced Romeo and Juliet references. the forced romance. It is so clear that Benjamin St. Jobs, the other guy in the love triangle, doesn't stand a chance, but we have to keep who-will-it-be-ing for so long anyway. And Coil's a dick), but it mostly just balances out.

There were three more books in the series. There was supposed to be four, but. Well

Anyway. Book Two, The Wire Mother: Hounds' Toll (2012), actually kind of slapped. It went to more tragic and horror-influenced places than the original book. One thing I'll give Angela Lee (the author) credit for: I don't think this was a sequel for the sake of having a sequel. I think that the series was always supposed to be a pentalogy.

Some of the stuff in this book has still stuck with me to this day- I have to hold myself back from adding ominously ringing church bells in so many of my projects. Also, it really filled out Leo Groves as a protagonist- I could take or leave her in the first book, but I started to genuinely like her by the second. And the stuff they do with Stellarose Ardent, her best friend turned rival... God, I could make a whole post about Stellarose Ardent.

this book series is good, readers thought. surely the third book will be as good if not better

THE THIRD BOOK WAS HELL. The Wire Mother: Ordained Voltage (2013)...I think it did everything wrong. There was a reason that there was a two year break between the first two books, and book three being out only a year after Hounds' Toll really shows.

It's incredibly rushed. Leo barely gets to do anything. Stellarose is killed off in the most unsatisfying way possible. And while it seemed like Book Two had neatly put the love triangle to bed, no! It claws its way out of its grave!! To torment me specifically!

The only good thing we got out of this car wreck is Anesthesia 3, lab rat girl and apocalypse maiden extraordinaire. I adore her. She's got real Fish Inside A Birdcage vibes. Everything else, though? Horrors.

But readers held out hope. At least the characters ended up trapped in an interesting setting at the end of book three. The merciless, multi-layered prison of Tithonus, the central antagonist of the series. It seemed like that was a good set-up for a prison escape storyline. Those have to be entertaining, right?

Somehow, some way, no. Book Four, The Wire Mother: Endless Sentence (2014) is not just bad. I could forgive bad. But it is bad, and it is boring.

so boring that I'm not even going to waste my words on it. It's a school night. I'm not staying up to describe that thing. The only interesting thing about it is how it could manage to be boring while being an homage to the fucking Stanford Prison experiments.

And that was the end of a lot of people's hopes for the Wire Mother series. Only one good book out of four isn't a great track record, you know? A lot of readers were willing to put Hounds' Toll down as a one-off.

Then, in November of 2014, the preview for Book Five, The Wire Mother: Quantum Claws came out. It was three chapters long. And people lost their shit.

First of all, it was good. Maybe as good as Hounds' Toll. Maybe better.

But more than that, it was a break from the relatively grounded, safe, company standard dystopia of the series. Because this bad boy was going to be about time travel. Tithonus, in his evil plans to live forever, had built a time machine and activated it just at the right moment when the plucky heroes were about to kill him once and for all.

Which seems like something that would be a train wreck, right? If this author can't handle the easy-to-please tropes of prison breaks and romance, what business does she have trying to handle a time travel story without completely fucking up the series?

And maybe that would have been true. But the first three chapters were insanely promising. They were refreshing, original- they got time travel. We were able to get characters like Stellarose and Jane-Mary and Turpentine back after the story cast them aside so soon. And it promised to really examine what Leo Groves meant for the book's world. So, hopes rose again.

Unfortunately, we'll never know if it would have been good or bad. The fifth book was never published. We don't know why. It was just promised, for months and months, and then. Poof. The updates stopped. It was gone.

And it haunts me. If you haven't stopped reading by now, you can probably tell that. The fandom was like a fraction of the size of the Divergent fandom, and I don't know anyone IRL who's read these things. I don't even know if I can or should recommend them.

But sometimes something doesn't have to be a literary masterpiece to burrow into your brain and not let go, I guess ASJSJS

[x--ghost--x]

That's kinda random but I wanted to draw transfem!2k12Leo (Leonore maybe? It sounds really cool. It has Greek roots and it means 'sun ray' and I think it's really cute for her♡)

You don't get how much I love this headcanon (it's canon for me, you can't change my mind, sorry)

Leonora

by Sugarcane

New translation! This time I just felt like translating and talking about this song because I genuinely love talking about the little nuances here. It's one of the more recent videos that really pulled me back into OPM. I explain a lot of the nuances and the historical background below + some personal stories related to it too.

Leonora

This serenade I'm offering, for the maiden with unparalleled beauty, with the scent of roses If tricky fate would wish it I won't let it disappear

This letter I'm hoping your eyes would read I'm ready to do everything, I'll even court your family I've only now felt such eternal awe All I wish for is

The two of us be together at the end and at the beginning Proving that first love does last

How many poems has it been, why is it getting unnoticed? My only wish, at the end you'll be with me If it's possible, until the end of time I will never let you go forever

Our sweet past relationship, where'd it go? (I keep looking for you, whoa) How come between us, I'm the only one left? (I wish I could still see you) Your beautiful voice, would I still hear it? Ready to go through life[1] even if you're not here anymore

Wherever you are, may you be happy now (let you go free, whoa) Even if we won't be together anymore (I still love you) Just please listen to my wish that you would take care Oh, Leonora my love, ah

Alternative Translations and Additional Context

Ready to go through - this is just the literal translation of the line but contextually it's closer to the lyric I used or something close to "Ready to go through everything".

The song is based on the real-life historical figure Leonor Rivera-Kipping, one of the many lovers of the Philippine National hero José Rizal. The two were childhood sweethearts, however, due to Rizal traveling to Europe to study and Leonor's mother Silvestra Bauzon not liking how political he was while favoring an Englishman named Henry Charles Kipping so Silvestra and Kipping kept the letters that Rizal sent to Leonor. This made her think that she was abandoned and later on married Kipping instead (Quirino, 2015).

On the night of her wedding, she found the letters and in her frustration tore them apart sewing some of them on the hem of her wedding dress and burnt the others. After her marriage to Kipping, she vowed to never play the piano again. She died at 26 in childbirth alongside her newborn daughter, after which Kipping abandoned their only living son and traveled back to England just to die three years later, no mention of Leonor ever being his wife (Quirino, 2015).

Her final wish before her death was to be buried with the silver box that contained the ashes of Rizal's letters (Martinez-Clemente, 2011). Sadly, her grave was a casualty during the war and her remains and her grave site has been lost forever (Quirino, 2015).

Leonor serves as the inspiration for the character of Maria Clara in Rizal's acclaimed novels that Filipinos are mandated to learn at school Noli Me Tangere and its sequel El Filibusterismo. Maria Clara is the female love interest of the series protagonist Crisostomo Ibarra and the two have a severely tragic love story due to the politics surrounding Ibarra and both of their relationships.

From my understanding of the books, Leonor may also have been the inspiration for the El Filibusterismo character Paulita Gomez who abandons her relationship with her lover, one of the leading characters named Isagani, after he was accused of being an insurrectionist despite being innocent. At the end of the story, Paulita marries someone else and Isagani watches the reception from outside her house.

Random Trivia

The place this music video was shot is actually a historical house of another one of Rizal's many lovers Segunda Katigbak! The place is called Casa Segunda and is located in Lipa City, Batangas. My classmates and I visited the place and rented it out for a project a couple of years back.

Another fun fact is that the group most likely didn't actually play the piano in the house because they weren't allowed to considering how old it is. It's an antique and it was already falling apart when we went there way before this video was probably shot. That's the reason for them keeping the camera away from the keys.

They're also not allowed to sit on the antique seat in front of the piano because of how fragile it was and it already was falling apart too when we went there. We ignored this for one of our shoots and did it quickly before anyone could notice, but they may have just positioned the camera so they don't have to show them sitting down on the chair.

We found a random kitten in the house? I don't know what happened to it. It wasn't outside either, it was like inside one of the bedrooms. I don't know if the staff or family owned it but it did look like a stray.

Some of my classmates still hasn't paid me back for the rent we were supposed to split. It isn't a fun fact, I'm just a little salty.

Original Lyrics

'Tong alay kong harana, para sa dalagang Walang kasingganda, amoy-rosas ang halimuyak Kung nanaisin ng tadhanang mapanlinlang 'Di hahayaang mawala pa

'Tong liham na umaasang mata mo ang makabasa Handang gawin lahat, maging pamilya'y liligawan Ngayon lang nakadama ng wagas na pagkamangha Hiling ko lang naman na

Tayo na sanang dalawa ang siyang huli at ang umpisa Papatunayang ang unang pag-ibig ay 'di mawawala

Nakailang tula na, ba't tila 'di napupuna? Ang tangi kong hiling, hanggang dulo ikaw ang kapiling Kung puwede lang, hanggang pangmagpakailanman Hinding-hindi na papakawalan kailanman

Ang dating tamis ng pagsasama, nasa'n na? (Hinahanap-hanap ka, whoa) Ba't sa 'ting dal'wa, ako na lang ang natira? (Sana'y magkita pa) Tinig mong kay ganda, maririnig pa ba? Handang tahaking mag-isa kahit wala ka na

Kung nasa'n ka man, nawa ay masaya ka na (palalayain ka, whoa) Kahit na 'di na tayo magsasama pa (mahal pa rin kita) Dinggin mo lang ang hiling na mag-iingat ka Oh, Leonora kong sinta, ah

2, 4, 12, & 14 Your choice of character or randomize it :o

Ooh! Thanks for the ask. Ok, random.org dealt me Emile, Tarragon, Thistle, and Sey, so I'll answer in that order. (Links to drawings of them attached.) 2. Did you design them with any other characters/OCs from their universe in mind? Yes! Emile was 100% meant to be Marzanna's opposite. She's the funny little warm-colors jester to Marzanna's monochrome cool-colors depressed knight. Emile wears soft/loose clothing, while Marzanna's decked out in cold unfeeling black armor. And then of course there's the height difference. I wanted them to look and feel like a very unlikely duo, but if you spend any time around them as people you understand that this is how it was always going to be. Unfortunately, they're in love and would die for each other, and neither of them has told the other. 4. In developing their backstory, what elements of the world they live in played the most influential parts? Tarragon is my FFXIV WoL and I've actually started playing recently, so I've been thinking about him a lot. I'm not very far in, but I've decided he used to be a pirate simply based on the fact that I love that Limsa culture is just barely managing to pretend not to be a bunch of pirate crews glued together into a city state. Tarragon is old enough to remember when that wasn't the case yet, and the times after when there was still dissent in response to the instatement of (gasp) actual laws? He left the pirate's life behind to go travel, but I do think it's funny that this makes him an unconventional Duskwight who inexplicably loves cities and the sun. Go figure. 12. What have you found to be most difficult about creating art for your OC? So I actually haven't posted about Thistle anywhere yet, but I was delighted to answer this question for them. You see, I draw a lot of people. So there's just one problem: Thistle is a gun. Thistle (or their actual name, The Sensation of Being Scratched by Thorns) is my character in a game of GUN&SLINGER, where one person plays the slinger and the other plays the sentient gun. Thistle is an eldritch fey being trapped in the form of a magic gun against their will, which they are quite mad about. Now, I can draw a gun just fine (god knows I've drawn rifles for Leonore and Songbird several times) but Thistle's form is meant to be weirdly otherworldly and organic, like plants from from inside not-bone, and I've had a lot of trouble conveying that in a way that doesn't look overdesigned. 14. If you had to narrow it down to 2 things that you MUST keep in mind while working with your OC, what would those things be? I've gotten very good at boiling Sey down to his core qualities. If I had to narrow it down to two, it would be:

angular (the build, the nose, the eye shape. the personality. the electricity theming. yep, this boy is made of triangles)

punchable (if he's not smug and full of himself and angry and all around a bastardly little guy is he even Sey? and yet despite his losing personality he is my favorite son.)

If you have those, that's Sey. If you don't, that may or may not be some other guy who looks like him.

Round 5 ROS

COULSON Minor: n/a Major:  Sudden Wedding. Your sim can’t wait any longer. Pick a single sim and get them married within one rotation. They may have a prior relationship with their chosen spouse, or they can start out as strangers.

I was happy to leave Meda and Jeremy unmarried, but ROS had other ideas. I got on board with it, though; I think it makes sense that Jeremy would be ready to make a more formal commitment to Meda now that he’s decided to settle down in Panorama.

FUENTES-HADDAD Minor: Errands. Visit four community lots within 24 sim-hours.

Nadya fetched water from the Founders’ Square well, bought groceries from Campbell Farm, spoke with Cintia Morales at Cintia’s Handmade, and worked for a few hours at her and Walter’s business, Fuentes Hardware.

Major: Pregnant. Whether through risky woohoo or actively trying, your sim becomes pregnant.

Nadya and Walter love their children but don’t want more. Nadya terminated her unplanned pregnancy with Meda’s help.

MORALES I Minor: Cool Parent. Your sim attempts to befriend three of their child’s friends.

There are always a million things happening at the Morales household, so it’s challenging to find time to work on their ROS. Cintia did her best to befriend a few of Nancy’s friends, but her only opportunity to try was at their joint birthday party, and I didn’t get any good pics. Consider this ROS failed.

Major: Nothing Major. Life goes on as normal.

CAMPBELL-CHEN Minor: New Hobby. Over the next three rotations, have your sim earn a gold skill badge in a new hobby.

Peter took up fishing—or rather, Phoebe forced him to take up fishing because she couldn’t stand having him laying around the house any longer. To his surprise, he’s been enjoying it. It’s not technically a “new” hobby, though, as Peter did some fishing as a teen and already had a bronze badge.

Major: Nothing Major. Life goes on as normal.

CAMPBELL Minor: Write a Novel. Your sim has been hit by the writing muse and is itching to start a novel.

Is Anna beginning to emerge from her stupor? She’s not exactly planning on writing a novel (how would it get published in post-apocalyptic Panorama, anyway?), but we’ll see where her scribbling takes her.

Major: Nothing Major. Life goes on as normal.

MORALES II Minor: n/a Major: n/a

I played this household only for a partial round (Yesenia and Leonor moved out of their parents’ house on day three out of four), so I didn’t roll an ROS for them.

* * * * *

Some more thoughts: I was and am excited to play through the scenarios in my ROS list, but it’s been hard to focus on completing them when there’s so much else going on in almost all of my households. Trying to remember to hit all the story beats AND fulfill a random scenario at the same time made playing my game a little more stressful than fun at times during round 5. Going forward, I think I’ll roll ROS only for families that I’m not sure what to do with, or that don’t otherwise have a ton going on.

[foreverinthepagesofhistoryy]

Just a random wotc I thought you’d enjoy. We all know that Leonor and Alix’s kids would love Sofía to death. Like they want to go out to the movies, Sofia takes them. They want to play football in the palace corridors aunt Sofia is the way to go.

I can just imagine them like toddlers and having such a good relationship with Sofia that when she starts bringing the person she’s fond of around immediately both of the kids are like “who is that person? Why are they at our table?” They’d like both look at Leonor and be like “mom..explain” 😂😂 the poor dears would be so confused.

To the point where they would go sit on Sofia’s lap and eye the dude the whole dinner.

Leonor finds it adorable but can also tell her kids are uncomfortable and she would go all mom mode and make sure they were comfortable.

Alix would probably think it is the most comical thing ever. 😂😂 just two toddlers with there brows set in confusion, one on each side of Sofia like “she’s ours”😂

OMG THIS IS SO PERFECT!!! 🥹💕🤣😝

Sofia just being the fun aunt and the poor children just being confused as hell because Sofia isn’t theirs anymore, I’m dying of cuteness 🥹🥹🥹! This reminds me of how Princess Margaret was the fun aunt to Anne and Charles when they were kids! Ah fun times!

Thank you for asking and this is a definite 100% headcannon. 🤍🤍🤍
