Episode 9 pt 2 - Second Elimination

Unfortunately the time has come again for two more contestants to go home. The six sims brought to the elimination were determined by number of points earned through challenges and friendship/relationship scores. In no particular order those sims were:

Adriel Nunez by @simsmoonie

Blaze Viper by @aniraklova

Darius King by @rasoyas

Jamison Peck by @squeezesublime

Jain Cooley by @invisiblequeen

Luca Palladio by @costalcowplant

The tops of this week were: Adriel and Darius. Are we surprised? Our girl adores them both. Adriel sort of took a back seat this week but still managed to beat everyone else in house one. Whereas Darius… we all know why he’s here. Penny is still hoping he says something about her confession but he’s keeping her on her toes. He likes seeing her nervous.

Jamison ended up being safe this week. He made a lot of progress from last week but if he wants to stay in this competition he’s gotta do better. Hopefully he takes that to heart for next week or else he might find himself in the bottom.

By a surprise, Blaze was also considered safe this week. Penny debated eliminating him but she thought about giving him once last chance. Hopefully he doesn’t blow it next week!

That brings us to the eliminated contestants- Jain and Luca. Penny had the lowest scores with each of those sims across both houses. Luca really dug himself a ditch by rejecting all her flirty interactions and Jain just couldn’t stand out from all the men. They were great guys and I loved having them in the competition. Penny hopes they find love out there!

You didn’t think that was the end did you? Raiden decided to say 🖕production and went out to confront Penny about the gym situation. Penny was surprised that he did that and low key she found it super attractive. The two of them hatched it out (somewhat) but unfortunately production didn’t get to film it in time. Just know that Penny was being a MAJOR brat about it all.

Annnnnnd that’s what you missed on GLEE!!

anakin freckles anakin freckles anakin freckles 🔥🔥🔥

Anyone else obsessed with Obikin freckles? Thanks to @paracosm-draw and Obikin Promptober 2024, I was thinking about freckles all day.

And yes, I realize freckles was supposed to be a NSFW prompt, but I did this in a rush and didn't have the time to write something smutty. Sowwy.

Obi-Wan’s determined, brisk footsteps announce his arrival in the medbay before he appears in the doorway to the exam room where Anakin is being evaluated.

Kix has Anakin’s chin gripped firmly in one hand while the other gingerly presses a batch patch to his forehead, right above the vertical scar that clips his eyebrow. Without turning his head, Anakin glances from the corner of his eye and sees Obi-Wan exhale evenly as his shoulders relax ever so slightly.

Relief.

Had it been a sharp exhale while his posture straightened, it would’ve been frustration.

A slow exhale followed by a drop of his shoulders would’ve meant disappointment.

“General,” Kix greets Obi-Wan. “Almost done here.” He secures the patch with another layer of adhesive bandage.

Anakin remains silent as Obi-Wan approaches the exam table he’s perched on, legs dangling off one side.

“Concussion,” Kix states and shifts back. He nods at Obi-Wan before giving Anakin a tight smile. “Not your first, unfortunately.”

“Hmm, no,” Obi-Wan mutters.

Another long exhale of breath.

Resignation. With a hint of amusement.

After a quick calculation, Anakin thinks the chances of getting lectured by Obi-Wan have diminished significantly.

“So your discharge instructions should be familiar. Lots of rest. Including cognitive rest. Don’t be going over battle plans and overusing your brain,” Kix says and gestures to Anakin’s head. He rattles off a list of things that Anakin should avoid and symptoms to look out for. “And I will send all of this to General Kenobi’s datapad,” Kix concludes.

Anakin is about to protest when Kix speaks up again.

“Because you should limit datapad usage for the next three to four rotations.”

“So I can’t write the mission report?” Anakin asks carefully.

“Afraid not, General.” Kix confirms. “Comm me if you start experiencing any of the symptoms I mentioned earlier,” he says. He looks between them and nods. “You’re free to go.”

Once Kix leaves, Obi-Wan steps closer, a crease between his brows.

Worry.

“I’m fine, Master,” Anakin says.

Obi-Wan lifts his hand to brush a stray curl off his forehead, holding it back as he leans in to peer at the bandage under the stark white lights of the medbay. His lips purse, the furrow in his brow deepening.

Displeasure.

“Really, I’m fine,” Anakin insists.

Obi-Wan hums, unconvinced, and withdraws his hand. Unexpectedly, his thumb swipes across Anakin’s cheekbone. A gentle and light touch.

Anakin’s lips part in response, the breath stuttering in his lungs, eyes blinking rapidly.

Obi-Wan repeats the motion, slower, while his eyes narrow and the corners of his mouth dip.

“What— why…” Anakin breathes.

Once more, he caresses Anakin’s face, the pad of his thumb tracing a deliberate path. His expression remains the same.

Confusion.

Anakin watches as Obi-Wan studies him. His skin flushes at the contact, the scrutiny. His heart begins to pound behind his sternum.

“I… I never noticed…” Obi-Wan says softly. His gaze is locked onto Anakin’s cheek. “You have freckles.” He shakes his head. “How is it that I never noticed them before?” he wonders.

“They’re very faint,” Anakin says quietly, as though it was a confession, still staring into Obi-Wan’s eyes.

“Yes, but… it’s you… and they're so... I would’ve certainly noticed…” Obi-Wan trails off, leaving his thought incomplete, a deep pink spreading down his neck.

Something in Anakin’s stomach flutters.

Obi-Wan notices things about him.

Maybe not the way Anakin notices things about Obi-Wan. Not like knowing what Obi-Wan's thinking based on the set of his eyebrows. Or sensing when how tired his former Master is based on the slope of his shoulders. Or understanding that when he gives short, clipped answers in a high-pitched voice, it's because Obi-Wan's either really hungry or has to pee.

Maybe not to that degree.

But enough to feel off-balance when he's faced with something he hasn't noticed before about Anakin that he thinks he should've known.

Swallowing, Anakin reaches up and wraps his gloved hand around Obi-Wan’s wrist. Under the fingertips of his mechno-arm, Obi-Wan’s pulse races.

“Maybe they were just waiting for the right moment to be noticed,” Anakin says.

[reliabledragon]

To me, the best embodiment of modern capitalism is in the phrase "please hold, we are experiencing higher than usual call volume". I know it's a lie. You know it's a lie. But you still hear that line every time you call, regardless of the day or time, because it shifts the blame. It tries to prompt you to blame the other callers instead of asking, "Hey, why are they deliberately understaffing their call centers and making it so difficult to get help?" It takes a failing caused by a deliberate, profit-focused management choice, and turns it into a problem with the people using the system, rather than one with the system itself. And that pattern, to me, is the epitome of the modern corporate system.

Never underestimate the healing power of a good meal!

Episode 10 - Third Elimination

Unfortunately the time has come again for two more contestants to go home. The six sims brought to the elimination were determined by number of points earned through challenges and friendship/relationship scores. In no particular order those sims were:

Atlas Moreau by @belsasim

Blaze Viper by @aniraklova

Jamison Peck by @squeezesublime

Jaxon Brewer by @neishroom

Silas Trent by @moonwoodhollow

Raiden Katsumi by @riverofjazzsims

The tops of this week were: Jaxon and Raiden! As you saw in their solo dates these boys went to work like rent was due. Both of them pushed their relationship/friendhsip levels high enough to earn the top spot this week. Penny felt super connected to them and if they keep this up they will have nothing to worry about.

Silas and Atlas ended up being safe this week. Though both were making smooth progress in the beginning their connection is going stale. Penny hopes that next week both goes back to getting her attention because she doesn't want to see either of them go so soon.

That brings us to the eliminated contestants- Jamison and Blaze. Penny had the lowest scores with each of those sims across both houses. Blaze unfortunately couldn't comeback from their disaster date last week. Penny just didn't feel right keeping him around while other sims we're treating her better. Jamison unfortunately suffered by just not prioritizing her. Their connection was decent but didn't progress all that much this week.

Thank you both for sending in your sims! I hope you enjoyed seeing their progress in the competition and I hope you're proud of them! I loved having them both in game!!

Annnnnnd that’s what you missed on GLEE!!
