You know what I was going to be the big person. I was going to ignore this obviously pathetic attempt at calling me out for setting boundaries. But no I'm not. Because I figure people need to know what you're saying.

I would love to have posted this as a reblog to your post... so we could have discourse in public, cause I'm sorry, I ain't going anywhere near your DMs so you can try and twist things to fit your narrative. You wanna talk? You talk in public.

But lets play a game. I welcome ANYONE reading this to have a look and see where I as the admin of Equestriad has been 'mean' to everyone. I've reblogged posts that I feel is related to my own feelings, and otherwise been getting on with my life. Sorry you feel threatened by another server but seriously. Get my pretty name out of your mouth, cause it does not deserve to be in there.

You want to drag others through the dirt in a vain attempt to make yourself look good? You Jocelyn are PATHETIC, and from what I've heard ... this ain't the first time you've stirred shit.

I honestly hope you grow, you learn to improve in time, that you do some serious self reflection and self growth. Cause it's you hun causing all the drama in here, not anyone else.

Soooooooooo..... I cannot be stopped.

This is my breeding pair of Anatolian Shepherds, Baron(red) and Zipporah(blue)! I've fully become engulfed and OBSESSED with this club/community I've recently joined called the Sims Animal Fanciers Club and fully expect this blog to become a lot more pet-oriented now that I've learned the curve of how to paint with CAP 😂

These babies will not be available for adoption/download BUT I will make some future babies that are!

I'm currently working on getting the rider poses updated for the MMxSC dressage saddle with longer stirrups, but I had a medical procedure today so I'm on some heavy meds lol. Making those kinds of closely interacting poses is breaking my brain a bit! The early release rider positions (w/o stirrups) are available for Sims Animal Fancier Club members, but the public release should be here either tomorrow or the following day. Since I've seen a couple conformation shows (and I feel good enough), I'm going to do some fun show stance poses just to keep the motivation going lol

cause & effect || chapter 4

➵ your work friend, kuroo, has a tiny favour to ask. to say you’re surprised is an understatement. but, for some stupid reason, you agreed to it. 

warnings: f!reader, alcohol

wc: 2.1k

m.list | ch. 3 ↞ ch. 4 ↠ ch. 5

You sip the hot sake with a grimace. It’s not bad per se, just… different.

For a restaurant whose whole gimmick was hot sake, you’re surprised it clashes so much with your meal. But at least it brought you a little warmth.

Kuroo’s having as strange a time as you are. Each sip of his sake is accommodated with a grimace. Somehow, it makes him look a couple years younger.

Your legs are tucked under the futon attached to your table, but admittedly there’s not much room. Kuroo’s legs are far too long and the kotatsu much too cramped.

“Give me some room, would you?” You grin, nudging him with your knee.

“Oh, sorry,” Kuroo chuckles, adjusting himself.

This isn’t the first fake date you’ve been on with Kuroo. Well, they weren’t dates – not technically. The purpose of them was to get to know each other better; something you’d both agreed was important if you were going to pull this whole thing off.

You’d never really thought about it before, but there’s a lot of mundane information shared in relationships. Things you might not think to mention to other people, or even things you haven’t told anyone else. Not that you were saying any of that to each other – you just need to be convincingly close.

You are going to meet his family, after all.

“So,” you sigh, setting your cup on the kotatsu, “you lived with your dad, your grandmother, and your grandfather?”

“Mhm,” he nods.

“And I need to stay on my toes around them?”

“Oh yeah,” Kuroo grins. “Chances are they’ll tease the hell out of you if they get comfortable enough.”

“Great,” you chuckle.

“You’ll be fine,” he smiles. “I’m sure they’ll love you.”

“You sure?”

“Chances are they’ll tell you you’re too good for me.”

“Maybe I am,” you smirk, taking another sip of sake.

Kuroo scoffs. “Brutal!”

You’re not sure if he can tell you’re lying. He’s handsome, clever, and witty enough to be entertaining. You’d feel lucky to have a guy like him look your way.

Oh well, you think as you place your hands in your lap. You’re quite happy to keep that thought to yourself. There’s no good reason to feed a man’s ego.

He stretches his arms above his head, groaning. You swear you can hear his bones cracking.

“You sound like an old man,” you grin.

“Look, it’s not my fault the human body is badly designed.”

“Ah, so it’s not your fault for not looking after it properly, hm?” Perhaps he has a point. But you have to make your own fun these days.

“I’ll have you know I take very good care of my body, thank you very much.”

You’re not sure if he intended it to sound so flirtatious, but you blush anyway.

“Your bones say otherwise,” you muse.

“I won’t stand for this abuse,” he grins, standing up. “You ready?”

You follow suit, scampering after him as he approaches the cashier.

As always, he pays. No matter how hard you try to protest, he just smiles and says he feels bad for taking up your evenings.

You don’t know a casual way to say that you actually enjoy these outings.

Your solution is just buy him fancier coffees in the morning.

Kuroo deals with the transaction in the same smooth and charming way he always does, and you’re sure he’s definitely made an imprint on the dear cashier’s memory.

It’s only late afternoon, but the sky is already darkening. The trees that line the street are speckled with fairy lights, already glowing like candles in the dim twilight.

You gaze at them with a tiny sense of wonder. You’ve heard the theory that people made winter a time of celebration to give them something to pull through the dark and the cold for. Maybe that’s true – but there’s always such beauty to be find during wintertime, even if it feels like the tip of your nose is about to fall out.

Fairy lights in a tree are so small, so inconsequential, and yet so human.

You shake your head. That’s the sake talking.

You turn to Kuroo to say something.

He’s peering at you intently, eyes roaming your face.

You blush, unsure what to make of that look. Is there something on your face? “Everything okay?”

“The lighting’s good here.”

You frowned. “Huh?”

Kuroo fishes his phone out of his pocket, taking a step towards you and hovering an arm above your shoulders.

“You all good to take a photo?” He asks, and it clicks.

“Oh! Right!” You nod, almost a little too fervently. “Sure.”

He smiles, slinging his arm across your shoulders. You lean into him, tilting your face to what you believe to be your best angle.

Sure, these photos are technically ‘fake’, but that doesn’t mean you can’t look your best.

He snaps a couple of photos of the two of you before opening his gallery. The two of you take a moment to observe the handful of images.

The two of you may not really in a relationship, but you’re sure these photos could fool you.

You point at one of them, nodding. “That one looks good.”

Kuroo chuckles, adding it to his favourites. “Thanks.”

He smiles and slips his phone into his pocket as he steps away from you. You miss his warmth more than you should.

“Have they liked the photos?” You ask.

“Loved them,” he grins.

You know Kuroo’s been sending them to his family – with your permission, of course. It’s partly to satiate their desire to intrude on his love life, and also to make it more believable when you finally meet them. You have half a mind to save them to your own phone with how cute they are.

“Oba-chan’s been joking about putting them on the wall.”

You snort. “That’s a bit much, isn’t it?”

“She’s desperate,” he grins.

“She must be, if she’s considering omiai.”

Kuroo shrugs. “Ah, she’s just worried about me. She doesn’t want me to be ‘married to my work.’”

“Are you?” You ask, one eyebrow raised.

“Oh, God no.”

You laugh as you dig your hands in your pockets.

“I’ve just got a lot going on,” he explains. “I don’t have the time to date.”

“Really?” You tilt your head at him. “You kind of strike me as the kind of guy who’s content to just go home and play dating sims all night.”

Kuroo reels back, a hand on his chest. “You’re joking.”

“I thought you were single because you had some digital waifu or something.”

Kuroo stares at you with an expression of absolute horror. “What have I done to deserve this?”

“I’m just teasing,” you giggle, hopping down the street. “Okay, so if you’re not cuddling up against a body pillow of a scantily clad anime women during those lonely nights, then what do you do with your spare time?”

Kuroo scoffs, shaking his head as he jogs to catch up with you. “Well, I catch up with my friends a fair bit. Oh, and I’m part of a hobby volleyball club.”

“You play?” You look him up and down. Now that he’s said it, it makes perfect sense.

“I wasn’t kidding when I said I take good care of my body,” he grins.

Another glance and you realise – yes, actually, he appears to be taking very good care of his body. Those shoulders look a little broader than you’d first thought.

“Is that why you applied for your job?” You ask. “Personal interest?”

“Mhm,” he nods.

Interesting. “Have you always played?”

“I’ve played for as long as I can remember,” he grins. “Believe it or not, but my high school team actually made it to Nationals. With me as their captain.”

“Wait, really?” You look up at him with wide eyes. Now that was certainly unexpected.

“Sure did.”

“How far did you get?”

Kuroo furrows his brow for a moment. “I think it was something like the top 16?”

“That’s… pretty impressive,” you admit. Your knowledge of sports is perhaps a little lower than might be expected of someone in your position, but you digress. Top 16 in the entire nation is definitely something to be proud of.

“Glad you think so,” he grins.

“If you don’t mind me asking, why didn’t you pursue it professionally?” From your perspective he certainly has the build for it. And if there’s one thing you’re sure of after working next to him for a while now, it’s that he’s clever. A trait that seems to be surprisingly useful on the court.

“There were some real monsters on the teams we faced,” he says, voice languid as ever. “You know about Hinata Shouyou and Kageyama Tobio, right?”

You nod. Even if your understanding of the sport itself wasn’t particularly advanced, you were well-aware of the top players. That, at least, you’d made an effort to stay up to date with. Also, a lot of them were unfairly attractive – making that task a bit easier to stick to than some of your others.

“We faced them at Nationals,” he glances at you, a new glint in his eye. Maybe it’s nostalgia.

You shiver.

“That genuinely sounds terrifying.”

Kuroo grins. “It was. Oh, and you know Bokuto Koutarou, right?”

“Who doesn’t?”

“Well, we were friends in high school,” Kuroo says, as if it’s the most mundane piece of information you could receive. “Our teams often practiced against one another.”

You stare at him, jaw slack. “No way.”

“I have several embarrassing photos of him to prove it,” Kuroo chuckles.

He’s so confident about it that you have no choice but to believe him.

“You have to introduce me to him,” you say, voice a little more desperate than you’d like.

“Why?” Kuroo flashes you a wicked grin. “Got a crush?”

“No,” you roll your eyes, praying your cheeks aren’t turning too red. “He just seems… nice.”

“Nice and… attractive?”

“Shut up!”

“I’m just saying, he’s technically single—”

“Aren’t I supposed to be your fake girlfriend?” You knock him with one of his shoulders to little avail. You stumble back a bit from the impact. He stays completely still.

Kuroo cackles a little louder than usual. “You’re going to have to try harder than that.”

“Who knew you were so annoying?” You scoff.

“That’s on you,” he smirks. “You’re the one agreed to this.”

“It’s a hell of my own creation,” you mumble.

“Should’ve read the fine print,” Kuroo teases.

You have half a mind to glare at him to keep this going, but a question pushes itself to the forefront of your mind.

“Wait, so…” You press your lips together, frowning. “You didn’t pursue professional volleyball because of people like Bokuto?”

Kuroo tilts his head to the side with a pensive expression. “Sort of,” he shrugs. “I guess I just felt like I didn’t have the same passion for the court that guys like him did.”

“Oh,” you murmur. “I’m sorry.”

“Don’t apologise,” he chuckles, shaking his head. “I just realised my talents would be better applied elsewhere.”

“So… in marketing?”

He grins, glancing at you. “I just think that volleyball has the power to really connect people.”

You tilt your head at him.

“When I first moved to Tokyo, I wasn’t great at talking to people,” he sighs, running a hand through his hair. “But, because of volleyball, I found a way to… feel more comfortable opening up to people.”

The thought of Kuroo Tetsurou of all people being shy strikes you for a second. It’s hard to picture – but only for a moment.

“So,” he continues, “I want to make it easier for kids to get into this sort of thing. You never know who it might help.”

You smile to yourself. Once again, he’s being cute. And he doesn’t seem to have any clue.

“What about you?” Kuroo asks. “How’d you end up there?”

“Oh, it was just the first place that took me in,” you shrug.

He snorts. “Really?”

“Yeah. I just sent out my resume to a bunch of places and they got back to me first.”

“Oh, wow,” Kuroo grins.

“Sorry it’s not very romantic,” you blush, glancing at him.

“Nah.” He shakes his head. “It sounds very reasonable.”

“Thanks,” you chuckle.

In all honesty, part of you had expected this whole ‘fake dating’ thing to be a bit of a burden. The thought of pretending to like someone a lot more than you actually do sounds draining.

But it’s not hard to like Kuroo Tetsurou. In fact, you think he’s quite pleasant company. This whole charade shouldn’t be much trouble at all.

You dutifully ignore the thought that, if this were a real date, you’d absolutely ask him if he’d like to go on another.

I’m not sure if you want Charlotte too, let me know if not and I can put another download up!

Q & A:

1. Introduce yourself, tell us your name, age, and what you do for a living. Where do you live? Do you rent/own? Do you have roommates? Do you have pets?

Hello there! My name is Mateo Phillips. I’m a 24 year old singer-songwriter currently based out of Oasis Springs. My instrument is the piano and I sing all sorts of genres of music, including Jazz and R&B. For now I’m renting, but I hope to buy my own house soon! Ha- I guess you could say I have a roommate. My daughter, Charlotte, or Charlie as I like to call her. She’s 2 years old, the light of my life, and most of the time the inspiration behind my songs! I’m in the process of potty training her, but she takes after her mama and is as stubborn as a mule. I’m a huge dog person, but with the housing situation Charlie and I have currently, we aren’t allowed to bring a pet into the house. My dream is to get a dog so that Charlie knows the unconditional love that all dogs have. Plus, imagine the cuteness!

2. Give us a dating history. Have you ever been in love? If no, why not, and if yes, tell us your love story! Or tell us your funny first date story!

In high school I dated only a few girls, most of my school thought that I was the strange kid who sat in the music room and played the piano constantly. Which, they weren’t wrong! Most of the time I focused on my studies, and that didn’t leave a lot of room for romance. In college at San Myshuno University, however, I grew into my boyish looks and also started playing the piano and singing in clubs for tips. Girls started chasing me around, but none of them really wanted the serious relationship that I wanted. There was this really nice club near my dorm where the owners let me play once a week and I earned lots of tips from the “fancier” crowd. That club is actually where I met the love of my life. I had just finished a set and she came up to me and said “I’m fairly certain your piano is not tuned. Want me to fix it?” Of course I was offended, since I’ve been playing the piano since I could reach the keys and there was no way that piano was not tuned, so I offered to buy her dinner so she could tell me more in depth what the “problem” was. One simple sentence led me to marrying that woman, Savanna, and having little Charlotte. I was only 22 at the time, but nothing else mattered to me. Unfortunately, we discovered Savanna had cancer the day before my 23rd birthday and she passed away two months later, leaving Charlotte with only one parent and my heart shattered. Over the years, I’ve slowly been able to pick up the pieces and I’m finally ready to get back out there and find someone that I love and who will be a mother to Charlotte in ways I am unable to.  

3. Describe your ultimate fantasy date!  

Whew, sorry about the heaviness on the last post! I’m going to have a little fun with this next question. My fantasy date would definitely have to be at the romance festival. I love all the lanterns and seeing the happy couples or even the occasional wedding! The Sakura tea is always delicious, and after we would go talk to the romance guru- maybe get our romantic futures read! Since there’s also a karaoke bar next door, towards the end of the night we would head over there and test our vocal chords. And no, this isn’t me just wanting to flaunt my singing :) I believe that songs are the windows to our souls, and the perfect song has just as much of an effect on us as a quote or admissions of love. After karaoke, we’d buy a couple drinks at the bar before ending the night (unless we don’t want to end it).

4. Tell us about your family – are you close? Do you have siblings? Do you have any funny childhood stories or wacky family members you want to tell us about? 

I’m a huge family man. My Mama, Isabella, is amazing. She managed to raise me and my older sister, Camila, all by herself after my father went MIA in the military. When someone says “strong Latina woman”, the dictionary definition of that is my mom. My father was found half alive on a remote island when I was 16, and he eventually found his way back home. And, oh boy, was that an emotional reunion. I take after my father the most, I have his dark skin and singing ability. He almost became a member of a band when he was my age but decided to fight for his country instead. If mama is my role model, father is my hero. I often ask my mom for parenting help with Charlie, and she sometimes watches her when I need to go to a farther away show or club to sing. My sister Camila is a fiery one, and she’s working as a vet in San Myshuno currently with her adopted daughter, Anna. My dad is retired from the military with a purple heart and lots of war wounds and my mama stays at home to care for my dad. One childhood story I can remember is a week after my father disappeared. Camila and I were very upset, but my Mama wanted to cheer us up so she brought us to the animal shelter and we picked out a puppy. She told us “Look, niños, I know that you’re sad right now. But look how sad esta perra looks! If we bring her home, she’ll be happy again. And if she’s happy, she’ll lick your face and make you happy!” So we brought home little Spot and she grew into a massive Great Dane. Camila and I would let her up into our Mama’s bed and snuggle her when we felt sad. Spot had a puppy, Abby, and my parents still have Abby today even after Spot passed away. 

5. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?  

Anywhere? I’d have to say Egypt. I’m in awe over just how large those pyramids are, and I couldn’t imagine having to build them! It must’ve been backbreaking work, and the only way to remember those enslaved people is to witness their work and celebrate their culture. 

6. What would your hometown date be like? Where would we go and who would we meet?

My parents live in Brindleton Bay, which is vastly different than Oasis Springs. We’d most likely get a home cooked meal of Tamales or Enchiladas by my mom and have a romantic picnic at the beach. We could also bring Abby to the dog park to play with the other dogs. Hopefully you’d also be able to meet Camila and Anna as long as she can get a break from work! If I get accepted onto this show, my parents promised they would would take care of Charlie, so you’d also get to meet her! She’s a little charmer and loves meeting new people. We would take her to the park as well to let her run around and play! There’s lots of fun options in my little hometown :)

7. Do you have any special talents? Is there is a hobby or activity you like?

Other than singing and playing the piano, I’m also learning how to cook from my mom. I want to be able to make homemade meals for Charlotte when she’s old enough to eat them. Mama has been sending me little “cooking show” videos where she teaches me how to make a recipe. Recently, I’ve been learning how to make Tamales! They take forever, but the end result in delicious. Maybe I can cook them for you sometime? I also like just playing with Charlie in my free time. Her favorite game right now is make believe, and I put her on my back and pretend to act like an airplane. I honestly don’t know what I’d do without her. 

I really enjoyed filling out this questionnaire, and I hope that I’ll be able to make it onto the show and meet you in person! Thank you so much for this opportunity!
