Creating parents of the legacy founder, I accidentally made them gorgeous.

Like what? I didn't expect to play with them for long. But now i want to age them down and play through their younger years (they look as beautiful young too!).

Their daughter won the genetics lottery (literally was the first face "play with genetics" spat out).

btw the legacy challenge in question is the K-drama Legacy by @SIMato89. Highly recommend.

I also made a home for them,

though it's not polished.

The idea was that, as the legacy founder's parent is a fisherman, they probably didn't have much money. Thus, they live in the apparntments on the roof. In Korea roof houses viewed as cheapest and worst houses to live (from what i read, these appartments are open to elements, cold in winter and overheat in summer, and also not very secure).

Only the roof appartment is finished, and I somewhat finished mini-market in the corner.

If you want to finish or redo it, my gallery id is sunnytata1401. The lot is in there. Just please tag me or leave a comment under the gallery post, so I can see it :)

My utterly correct and well-researched predictions for The Sims 5

no research has actually be done by me at all

EA will make the game a monthly subscription "service" which always needs to be online. There will of course be multiple subscription tiers with the higher tiers receiving some utterly mediocre clothes, hairs, furniture, Sims, you name it, paying lipservice to causes like diversity to make them seem important and un-missable (farm that FOMO). Lower tiers will have ads, a limited number of allowed mods/cc, and reduced graphics or some shit.

And of course there will be expansion packs, a staple of The Sims franchise, but you will need to pay for those too. Unless you subscribe to the platinum+ package, which includes a season pass. Of course there will always be certain cc packs that everybody will have to pay for, such as collaborations with big brands like D*sney, big fashion houses or IK*A. Occasionally there will be a freebie, but it will be a shitty print on a basegame T-shirt nobody cares for.

But that's not all! Not only will there be subscriptions, o no, there will be an ever bigger affiliate system. Basically an inbuilt multi-level management system (pyramid scheme) where people can sell their own mods/cc and recruit other people into their downline and make money of the mods they sell. They will give it a cutesy name, like Mod Families, Creator Visionaries, or Simgineers. There will be so many *shitty* mods, but since EA sits at the very top of the pyramid, there is absolutely no desire for quality control. You will see the same hair, with some added strands/removed strands/shorted/streaked/etc. edits over and over again. Of course there will be major fights and drama when the two biggest teams asset flip/convert create the same thing (some uninspired Second Life high poly blouse or something).

Anyway, I'm having a business meeting with EA next week and I'm very excited to share this plan with them.

P.S. Other features:

Extra in game currency like diamonds that people can use to buy even more junk for the game

Limit mods/cc to the Hub, you can't just put things in folders, it won't work

Sponsored events in the game, like a Simlish concert of K*ty P*rry or a Ad*das pop-up store in the mall

More social media integrations

An additional app for mobile devices where you play with your sims in a very limited way, but most importantly earn in game currency by doing stupid tasks, like playing games or watching ads

No pools in the basegame, that was a A+ decision in The Sims 4, so we're keeping that

InZoi's - The sad truth (Fail)

You've also heard about the "hype" around InZOI and I have to give my honest opinion on it. First of all, I'm shocked to see that people are stil Graphic "Bitches". As soon as you say that something was made in Unreal Engine 5, people think that it MUST be a good Game. Sorry there is so much Unreal Engine 5 shit out there, called (Games)

I'm not comparing Sims 4 with InZoi, that wouldn't do the Game justice, but what it can be compared to is Dragon's Dogma 2 (Re-Engine)

Namely the Character Creation version. DD2 had that too

InZoi Studios? Character Creation? Mhh 5/10

InZoi where it's mainly about Character Creation? comes with only half the functionality and selection, I couldn't even begin to create my Character. Because the Character Creation from INZOI only uses the Unreal Engine 5 base function. But everyone celebrates it because it looks good? Even DD2 had all the features in the pre-release that the Game should have in the end. Why can Capcom do this but KRAFTON can't? that makes no sense.

Dragons Dogma 2 Character Creation? 10/10

Anyone who has Created a Character in Dragons Dogma 2 knows what I'm talking about. And it was also a pre-release befor the main Game. All functions and selection options were already included. Just saying. And the Re-Engine looks just as good as UE5.

The Inzoi Character studio hasn't convinced me yet. I can't really get on with the realistic style either, I like Anime and Manga but K-Pop isn't my thing, but InZOI just seems like a "K-Pop Drama Game". And I can't get on with that, it's not Art for me.

So far it is just a sweetly presented base game with a Fluffy Cat.

And don't forget that the finished Game will have high hardware requirements, even if the developers want to improve a few things, it's Unreal Engine 5 and, even today there are still People who have problems with Sims 4 and CC together, which means that many of you won't even be able to play it when it comes out. In developer mode - What do you think it will do when the first mods and custom content comes for InZOI? Your PCs will burn.

That's a sad fact

Btw, did you know that we can put a comic filter over our (Photorealistic 3D character - Gameplay)? That changes EVERYTHING! Of course! Seriously, it's still Photorealistic, another UE5 product, almost everything that comes out.

I'm sorry but I'm not a fan of it.

Since you've watched a lot of kdrama, what are common things you've seen in kdrama that have been consistently ported into K-BL, and what is your assessment of that approach?

Ooh, interesting question. So first, let's acknowledge a few things:

Korean bl is short format, with even the longest shows (Light on Me, The Eighth Sense) not even half the length of a standard kdrama (16-20 hours), and most clocking in around 2-4 hours

Kbl operates under much smaller budgets and significant constraints around casting as compared to mainstream kdrama

Kbl often draws from webtoons and manwha and mostly does not have the kind of auteur writers and directors behind it that you get in kdrama (Hwang Da-Seul is the most consistent creator in genre with Where Your Eyes Linger, Blueming, To My Star)

All that said, there are a few features of mainstream kdrama that have definitely ported over into kbl despite these constraints:

Slick production values and strong use of setting and color: even the cheapest kbls still look decent, and there is always intentionally behind the setting and use of color palettes to set the tone and feel. Korea has a very well-developed film industry and it shows. Color Rush, Semantic Error and Blueming were fantastic examples of this: even within more familiar school romances, the settings felt specific and the use of color to communicate character and themes was striking. I also think often of Our Dating Sim and Choco Milk Shake and the very effective characterization work achieved through design of the apartments.

Sound production and music on point: the home of kpop is not going to be caught sleeping on the OSTs. Nearly every production has original songs and given the leads of these shows are usually idols, they're often the ones on the tracks. And when they use music that is not original, like in The Eighth Sense, it's a very intentional choice to set mood and tone. Korea is not going to let a boy who can't actually sing take the mic (*side eyes Thailand*). To My Star is a great example of memorable OSTs even in a fairly low budget production, and Wish You and Sing My Crush showed us what kbl can do when it decides to bring the full kpop treatment to bear.

A keen understanding of the international audience: kdrama production is a big part of South Korea's explicit goals to take the global media landscape by storm, and kbl is included in that. It's not a coincidence that Korea decided to step up its game in this arena shortly after Thai bl exploded (shoutout to 2gether and pandemic lockdowns). Kbl follows trends and explicitly caters to international audiences in a way jbl does not. The Eighth Sense was basically a case study in marrying kdrama sensibilities and western aesthetics for maximum international attention.

Second leads and valorization of unrequited love: you and I have discussed this one a lot because this is a feature of kdramas that will never die and that kbls also clearly love. Korea loves a one-sided love story and culturally, there is a certain dignity afforded to owning your feelings and being honest with the object of your affection, even when there is no hope of reciprocation. Often second leads don't get the guy/girl because they hesitate or hide their feelings until it's too late: the trope is used to underline the important of honesty and effort as well as providing a catalyst for the main lead to make their move. In Korean culture, the trying is what matters much more than the succeeding. We are meant to like most second leads and see them as honorable and dignified for their sincere feelings toward the protagonist. Second lead syndrome is a thing for a reason. It's also just a cheap and easy way to create drama so you'll often see it in the lower budget kbls. Second leads showed up recently in kbls like The Tasty Florida, Jun & Jun, Oh! Boarding House, Bon Appetit, etc. We also sometimes see kbls playing with the idea of unrequited love in the main pairing that is actually requited, like in Our Dating Sim.

Love triangles: relatedly, Korea loves them a love triangle, and they are uniquely good at doing it well when they want to. Light on Me is a fantastic example of a narrative where you can legitimately see the protagonist liking and ending up with both the main and second lead. And that is rooted in the way the narrative treats Daon with dignity even as it punishes him for his hesitation in reciprocating Taekyung's feelings (see above). When you have a strong second lead who engenders real sympathy with the audience, love triangle excellence is achieved.

Workplace romances: kdrama loves workplace romances, and we have seen kbl start to move into that space recently with shows like Roommates of Poongdock 304, Love Mate, Our Dating Sim, Jun & Jun, and The New Employee. Kdrama workplace romances run the gamut, but they often feature chaebol characters paired with a "normal" aka not wealthy person, and we are starting to see that more in the bl genre as well, as we discussed a bit yesterday. I believe @nieves-de-sugui commented on your post about how the rich/poor romance fantasy trend in recent bl may be coming in from kdrama. I think there's some truth to that, but really it's a foundational romance trope that predates kdrama by literal centuries, and is absolutely rooted in heteronormative patriarchal dynamics that assume men are breadwinners and caretakers for women (translated to seme/uke dynamics in bl). Often in kdrama the chaebol character is unable to live an authentic life due to the demands of filial piety and the expectations tied to their wealth, and I do think that dynamic is ripe for enrichment when you layer on gay identity in a homophobic society. But that requires shows leaving the no homophobia bubble, which few kbls have done.

Physical intimacy squarely in the middle space: comparing to heat levels we see across the spectrum of dramas, I think kdrama and kbl are pretty consistent in that they tend to land right in the middle of the spectrum. It's rare to see straight up dead fish kisses from romantic leads anymore (though it still happens, wincing at Unintentional Love Story), but they are also not going to be serving authentic sex scenes. What you get instead is very pretty open-mouthed kissing that feels more realistic than, for instance, the pure jbl lane, but still polished and aesthetically pleasing. Think Semantic Error, Blueming, Roomates of Poongdock 304, Love Mate, To My Star 2, Jun & Jun. This seems to be where the genre is landing and I don't expect heat levels to get any higher for kbl, as this is right in line with mainstream kdrama. The Eighth Sense offered a less polished version of intimacy that felt right in line with its grittier sensibilities.

So, after that long list, on to your second question: my assessment of this approach is that kbls are doing fairly well for themselves when you consider the constraints they are operating under. Look at a show like Love Tractor stacked up against something like Hometown Cha Cha Cha. These are both based in the classic romance trope of a city slicker coming to the country and falling in love with a humble working person. But where HCCC has 16 hours to build a quasi-enemies to lovers narrative with a rich community of side characters, LT has 3.5 hours to achieve the same thing. So it makes sense that it would fall back on well-worn tropes and story beats it knows the audience will recognize to help save time. These shortcuts help the audience ground themselves and get invested in the stories quickly.

One thing I'll say is that kbl mostly stays in the romcom lane with very occasional ventures into melo, and despite what casual observers think, kdrama actually has a lot more to offer than that. It's a giant world with stories based in every possible genre, tone, and style, and Korean media is particularly adept at embedding romance plots that actually work in all kinds of stories including action thrillers, horror, crime narratives, mysteries, supernatural and fantasy epics. I'd love to see kbl try this, though of course it would require the resources and runtime to do it successfully. Here's hoping they get the chance.

Fusing Total Drama Characters In Sims 4 (Part 19)

I’m fusing Total Drama characters in Sims 4 using the genetic mechanic.

Why?

I don’t flipping know. Why not?

I’m gonna do EVERY pairing possible. This post is just gonna be however long Tumblr allows for images.

So let’s just get into it.

I’m using my own TD Sims for this. They’re in the Gallery if you want them. As well as all these pairings and sims that get generated. So what you want.

Justin + Noah

In an alternate universe I feel like this would be a fun ship, actually. In AU context though.

We’re using Justin a lot this time so we’re gonna get some hot kids.

Let’s see if I’m right on that…

Okay…?

Eh? The girls clothes don’t match. Idk why she’s wearing gloves. But her hair and face are actually cute. I like that she’s more plus sized. That’s something you don’t expect from this combo.

The boy is your genetic typical sim.

The girls name is Elizabeth. She’s a rancher & childish.

The boys name is Yosef. He’s jealous & a cat lover.

Justin + Eva

Alright, let’s see…

OOF.

I mean the boy does have Justin’s face there. A lot of him could work if it weren’t for the pants.

The girl is a straight up disaster. WHAT IS THIS?!

Mismatch shoes. The jeans are ripped.

That’s a hideous bun. She has this eyeshadow. And two nose rings that are different colors. WHY?!

(I don’t like nose rings)

The girls name is Letica. She’s cheerful & a rancher.

The boys name is Art. He’s a kleptomaniac & paranoid.

Justin + Ezekiel

Alright, let’s see…

Okay.

They uh… there’s next to NO Justin here. But they’re okay.

Girls nice and casual. Nothing wrong there.

The boy is definitely a character. But I kinda like it?

Like, this explorer vibe actually really works for me.

The girls name is Arjuna. She’s gloomy & vegetarian.

The boys name is Rolando. He’s a child of the islands & loyal.

Justin + Alejandro

Ah. The kings of beauty.

Now this one has to be good!

WHAT THE F%#K?!

HOLY SH#T THESE ARE AWFUL!!

WHAT HAPPENED HERE?!?!?!

Why is the boys hair like that? Why is his chest like that?! Why does he have a nose ring?! Why is he wearing eyeliner?!

Why is the girls facial structure so awful?! Why is her hair that many colors?! Why the nose ring?! Why the spiked collar?! Why this skirt with these gloves with this shirt with these boots?! THATS NOT CHARACTER DESIGN!!!!

How do the two hottest male Total Drama character procreate the UGLIEST sims I have EVER SEEN?!?!

Anyway the boys name is Sonny. He’s a child of the islands & perfect.

The girls name is Annabeth. She’s a bookworm & geek.

Justin + Sierra

Oh here we go. The last one.

I was miserable making this sim. I f%#king LOATHE Sierra as a character. So I am NOT happy to be using her.

I’m kinda routing for these to be as ugly as possible just to spite her.

So let’s pray that’s the case…

Mighty disappointed cause they kinda work.

Yeah this part was a bust.

The boy actually works quite well. Everything matches. He’s cute.

I would say the hair for the girl is terrible, but… idk, the fact that it’s purple kinda saves it.

DONT ask me how the boy is blonde. I have no idea.

The girls name is Maureen. She’s squeamish & a maker.

The boys name is Jasper. He’s a party animal & lacrosse intolerant.

Say these generated sims were on a team on a show. What’s their team name?

----------------------------

General Term Of Use rules:

Do not monetize my CC. If you convert my CC to The Sims 4 or The Sims 2, or other game titles, do not put Donation link or adf.ly/similar monetization link, paywalled Patreon. My Sims CC including my mesh work are all 100% free of charge or gratis.

Feel free to use my CC / mesh to your mod or pose.

No CC/ Mod requests.

If I created decorative food CC, DO NOT ASK for functional version. Functional food CC for The Sims 3 is very difficult and confusing, by looking at the tutorial I'm not interested. I remind you I am designer, not script modder, and I work full time in real life and my life is not revolving on The Sims only. If you are young, 20 years old something, consider making your own functional food CC by your own. Feel free to use my decorative food mesh if you want. Any request asking for making functional food will be deleted and ignored.

⚠️❗ READ BLOG RULES FIRST BELOW

Before visiting my blog and downloading.

This is personal blog and art blog for The Sims game CC. NO annoying women/girls who came to my blog only to debate in English. I will delete the comment and block immediately without warning. Don't act disrespectful to CC creator who share our CC work for The Sims community. No stupid women drama. Keep your "Ladies' behaviour" out from this dude blog. Do not send me immature hate comment just because you defended wrong person whom I criticized for being disrespectful to me, because it is showing that you are jobless women who are lacking intelligence. Make sure your comment must be relevant to Sims CC only. If you want to debate about personal things you didn't like about me (irrelevant to The Sims related topics), you should leave my blog in the first place then go debate in Reddit or Quora instead.

To visitors from USA (United States of America), you must behave civilized and send polite message in understandable, International global formal English with no slang if you want to communicate with me. English is not my first language. Do not send messages with vulgar words. I will report your account to get you banned. No confusing English slang language, no mental illness allowed here. No filthy vulgar USA slang language and attitude. No overtalking about your USA states and your opinion as USA netizen about Asian culture that I never ask you. Be International, don't be unsophisticated USA people who don't know globalization & never travel to other countries. Once you are in my blog, you must behave like an Asian and follow Asian culture and customs.

Housewives and unemployed men are not allowed to comment and follow this blog. No stupidity allowed in this blog. Get a job and consult professional mental counselor before you send ignorant/hate comment and being aggresively stupid to other people's blog. Understand, jobless women and men?

Blog ini milik orang Indonesia, selama kamu komen pakai Bahasa Indonesia, bakal diprioritaskan.

Comment must be positive and feedback about CC only. For example: "Thank you for sharing" "Thank you for the CC". To foreigners, learn to say "Terima kasih" = Thank you . "Bagus" = Nice/Good.

Unless you are my real life wife, Do not send any body touching comment: "Hug", "Kiss" towards opposite sex blog owner. I will report who violates to Tumblr Staff as sexual harrasment. Unwanted Hug & Kiss = Sexual Harrasment, doesn't matter the gender.

DO NOT curse "F**k" and DO NOT use negative words such as "Crappy", "Idiot", "Garbage", USA people. By speaking those words I already know you are having low intelligence, unemployed & lazy people, and has immature teenager mentality. I remind you this blog is owned by an adult man working in corporate, not school playground. Be civilized guest and be a proper adult speak with manners and polite words.

Be respectful to non-native English speakers. Asians, Europeans, American Latin, African people who are able to speak English as our second/third language are educated people.

Don't insult men with "bitch" word, USA women. Bitch is derogatory word for girls and women. If you want to insult me, then use better, educated, and clever word towards educated men working for corporate. Bales pake Bahasa Indonesia dong, neng... bisa gak lu? Dasar bule kelas bawah IQ rendah 😂 Calling men "bitch" indicate your IQ must be very low, you even cannot tell difference between men and women 😂 Furthermore, it's your own fault why were you reposting my CC (I am the original creator) without mentioning my username? I can see your IP address you are from USA, Fakehouserealawesome.

If you cannot speak Bahasa Indonesia, 中文 , or any Asian languages... Do not act arrogant on my blog.

Internet is international space for many nationalities, not USA country. Respect and adapt to Asian culture if you want to visit my blog.

Say "Hi/Hello/Dude/Bro/Koko (哥哥）", "Please" ,"Thank you" ,"Would you" ,"May I ask" If you want to communicate to me, Westerners. If you are from Western (White Caucasian race) country, you must behave polite. Learn from Asians how to communicate politely and effectively on public.

Working adults and professional only. Students under 21 years old are allowed, as long as you are well-behaved in my blog, speak to me with manners like a mature adult, not 8-10 years old little child. Baby girl/toddler/elementary school kid language such as "ty for the likes <3" "Gawd lawd" "omg" "lol" , spamming love emoji or crying emoji will be deleted and your account will be blocked. My blog is not for kids.

Troublemakers, rude people, "low intelligent with no class" & uneducated people are not tolerated in this blog.

Do not follow or interact or send messages to me if you are housewives. Housewives are supposed to take care of their family and house, not being trolls in gaming community on internet. (Mothers/housewives are not gamers anyway, why are you trying to follow dude gamer blog, then get offended because men being men? 😂 ) I already enough getting annoying / provoking with low intelligence argument from U.S.A. "Karen" housewives to disrespect me. ( Yes, my real life wife was laughing and calling that USA housewife stupid). If you are housewives, mothers, or unemployed men who have no job, no skills, no friends, not exercising, never travel to other countries, spending too much time on internet being grumpy and complaining about life all the time, defending Fakehouserealawesome who had insulted me as a CC creator ... Consider to leave my blog immediately.

Target followers of this blog: Educated, gamers, working & productive in real life and well-behaved.

If you are women, Do not send sexual comment such as "hug". Non-sexual hug is for girls/women/ladies only. We men do not communicate with "hug" word. Pressing your (female/woman) breasts (•)(•) and front body to stranger men body is clearly sexual position to seduce men, which is immoral & not acceptable. I understand that white caucasian women are obsessed with physical body touch, including involving your breasts, but your culture is not compatible to our Asian culture. Do not hug men unless the man is your husband/boyfriend/sexual partner. Assuming all Sims players are girls are sexist and stupid for not being aware that there are men on any community and including internet. There could be sex predator men that can do sexual harrasment to you, women. Therefore, do not say hug to stranger people on internet unless the target person is 100% woman.

I remind you there are men and women on this Tumblr platform. Tumblr is public website, not private website for girls/women only.

Any comment with body touching is not allowed. Calling me "sweetheart", "honey" or any attempt for flirting are not allowed. You are not my wife. Any inappropriate comment will be deleted and will be reported as sexual harassment. Please focus on The Sims CC content only.

If you women didn't want your part of your body getting touched by men, then don't touch men's body too. Gender equality rules work here. You cannot behave selfish and will not get "special treatment" just because you are a woman. Even if you are woman and did wrong, you will get treated/criticized back as harsh as a man because I treat both genders men and women the same.

Crazy radical feminist women hating men are not welcome here. Remember, The Sims is created by man (Will Wright) and core mod, script mod, number of modders, tools (The Sims Workshop and plugins for programs); by majority are men.

If you women starting to ridicule men on purpose by saying, "Men playing The Sims are rare" then you should visit ModTheSims, Reddit, Steam, Youtube comments, meme with The Sims jokes and The Sims parodies on social media where men are everywhere in The Sims community. ModTheSims, TSR, TSR Workshop, The Sims mod tools & plug-ins are made by men. Not because "Men playing The Sims are rare" but actually you woman is the one who actually close-minded, not real gamer (never play hardcore games before other than The Sims) and lacking social interactions with men, don't have brother or guy friends are you... ?

Do not assume men playing The Sims are "gay" or"feminine". Many of us are straight. This is why I told you women to do not say "hug" to male Sims players.

Respectfully call male Sims players with male avatar with He/Him pronoun. I do not tolerate stupidity of misgendering my pronoun, while the gender of my avatar is very obvious. Do not emasculate Asian men nor disrespect our masculinity.

As a blog owner, I have right to defend my CC I created and correcting that people say wrong about me.

Let blog owners speak and post whatever we want. If you're getting offended with my post, then it is your own fault for not being open-minded. Learn to mind your own business.

If you come to my blog (including other people's blog too) only to debate / post negativity / being hostile to me, it means you are unemployed/jobless with poor financially/income. Working & productive people in real life with well financially/income and happy life do not have time to post negativity to other people on internet.

Normalize being polite and respectful. Comment to say compliment, feedback about CC and support CC creator who are sharing our CC work for free to Sims community.

Feel free to leave my blog if you disagree with my rules and viewpoint.

Terimakasih atas perhatiannya. 感謝諸位的時間！

Gnu writes!

To start things off, I thought I'd share all the wips/ideas I have in bad summaries (yay!)

These are the wips that are partially published: a. At Thy Will - D/s AU, inspired by medieval marriage laws in the area that would later become Germany. I've talked a bit about it here before, it includes abusive relationships and fantasy sexism and also religious trauma b. The Tower Must Fall - unfortunately a bit neglected (but I plan on picking it back up, I promise), including assassin!Martin and witch!Jon slowburn enemies to lovers (Gerry is there, too!) c. A Treatise In Balance - basically just Jon getting snatched and turned into an avatar by each of the Fears. Includes art d. The Crackling Sound Of Magic - these are small fics where Jon is a mage in training under his cruel father Elias Bouchard and Martin is a kitchen hand in their household. also technically slowburn and lots of hurt/comfort because Jon keeps getting hurt

wips in my wip folder a. faerie!Jon - he's a faerie, Martin is human, he gets lost in the Otherworld's fog, Jon saves him. Oh, and soulmate AU, too :) b. Nothing But The City - inspired by UDAD, where Jonah (while wearing Elias like a suit) performs a series of cyborg-like surgeries on Jon to use him to take control over the City that once had a name that is now long lost to time c. another fantasy au with magic, inspired by occudo's art (that I still want to eat. so pretty). including apprentice!Jon, reluctant bodyguard!Martin, and exasperated and probably evil (but hot) long haired Elias d. Archive AU - Jon is a fully developed Eye monster, way beyond human. Nobody but Elias knows. Martin joins the Archive crew, accidentally makes friends with the monster via tea, and falls in love e. teacher!Jon in Scotland - you've read it before, you love it as much as I do: Scotland Safehouse Period forever, nothing bad happens and Jon gets adopted by a bunch of nosy teenagers f. nurse!Martin AU - Martin is a nurse who deals with Jon's worm wounds (gets section 31-ed) and keeps meeting him while Jon is injured. Features the good ol' anonymous online kinky relationship (and so much research because i don't even know how German hospitals work let alone British ones) g. Magnus Academy - more teacher!Jon, but in dark, with magic, murder, abuse, blackmail, discrimination, etc. h. The Fourteen Hauntings of Jonathan Sims, Librarian - more AUs! this time it's medium!Jon time (and medium!Martin). There's ghosts, and the town is called Nevermore :) i. Vampire Stuff - loosely based on The Fearless Vampire Killers (but the German musical, not necessarily the film), featuring vampire!Jon, vampire!Elias, human Martin, Tim, Sasha (yes, Jon is Herbert) j. Martin Knife Blackwood - established jonmartin, Jon wants to propose, Martin used to be in organised crime and the mob boss Peter Lukas comes for him, drama, blood, guns, etc. k. magical bookshop - more magic. including season 4 levels of sad Jon, a traumatised mute teenage kid who is accidentally adopted by said sad Jon. Jon has a bookshop that shows up at random. like the tardis but with less control even than the Doctor has l. toxic JonElias with endgame JonMartin - this one's not fleshed out at all, but basically Jon gets to make friends and escape Elias' clutches (no Fears AU)

I have more plot bunnies, but they're just that, so I won't list them here or I'd be here for hours. Feel free to ask questions about the wips above if you like, I'd be more than happy to elaborate (it will contain spoilers tho)

Jen's ultimate rank list

For whatever reason the brain weevils have taken over and I decided I wanted to properly rank every Y series I've watched thus far. Why am I doing this? I really don't know. It just felt like a good use of a dreary Sunday. These will be split by region and I'm not including Western stuff because it doesn't, for me, fit what I think of when I think about a Y or BL series. I've not been analytical about a ranking system, it's mostly based on rewatch factors and how much it stuck with me after it ended. Some dramas I'll rewatch but they're not dramas I'd consider in my top list so just vibes also had to play a factor. (My MDL list isn't to be trusted. Girl, why did you give My Engineer a 9. What were you smoking?)
