Event Info & Rules
~ Please read our extensive event info posts before sending us an ask ~
WHUMPTOBER is a month-long, prompt-based creation challenge (think: Inktober, but whumpier). There are 31 official themes this year - one for each day of the month - which can be used, skipped, or combined in any way you’d like. The 'theme' of each day is the line of lyrics.
The prompts are merely to serve as inspiration without being taken literally (e.g. you don’t have to include the exact wording of prompts into your work). Feel free to run rampant on interpretation. For example, if the prompt is "flame", you could create something with reference to a candle/campfire, your character could have suffered a burn, or the flame could be related to the 'spark' of a relationship. It's truly up to you!
In total, there are 4 prompts for each day: there's lyrics, an object, a trope and a line of dialogue to choose from. We want to give everyone as much creative freedom as possible, as well as increase event accessibility for folks with triggers and squicks.
Creators can PRODUCE work in any media they choose, including but not limited to: writing, visual artwork, photo/video/audio edits, paper crafts and elaborate recommendation lists (not just a list of links). Creators can PARTICIPATE as much or as little as they want (i.e. you don’t have to do ALL the prompts if you don’t want to) and prompts can be used in any order. They are also free to use even after the event ends.
When uploading Whumptober content to your blog, be sure to tag the with:
#whumptober2023 …..(the event tag)
#no.1, #no.2, #no.3, …..(day number)
#lyric, #bruises, #stabbing, …..(the theme or specific prompt you chose)
#fandom or #OC, … (ironman, originalcontent, oc …)
#medium …..(gifs, fic, podcast, art, etc.)
#teeth, #gore tw, #etc …..(trigger warnings & any additional tags. Add "tw" AFTER the trigger/content warning. )
#nsfwhump …..(only for nsfw content)
#your own tags go here
PLEASE BE DILIGENT WITH YOUR TAGGING. Only properly tagged posts are considered for archiving on the official @whumptober-archive blog. They must be tagged in the order above. An elaborate post about our tagging system can be found [here]
Unfortunately, due to the sheer number of participants in recent years, we cannot guarantee your work will be archived. A random selection of properly tagged posts from all genres will be reblogged each day.
Whumpers who produce content for 31 total theme days are considered event completionists and will be tagged in a masterpost at the end of the month. A form will be published at the beginning of November asking you to tell us if you completed the event. You do not need to post anything you have created, we rely on trust and we will not check this.
Questions not addressed in one of our many event info posts can be directed to this blog. We will not answer any questions that have been answered in the FAQs or rules already.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How does this year’s prompt list work? What do I have to choose?
You can create something based on:
The overall theme/lyric of the day
Prompt 1, 2 or 3
One or several of the alternative prompts
A combination of the above
Q. Is [specific anything] allowed?
When in doubt: JUST DO IT!
Q. Do I have to do all 31 days?
Participate as much or little as you like! Just be sure to tag your posts properly (ex. #no.7, #radio silence). If you create works for 31 total theme days you will become a completionist. But apart from that, there are no repercussions if you don’t fill prompts for each day.
Q. Can I post early/late?
Yes, you can post whenever you want. We will only reblog posts during October, but you can use our prompts all year round. The day you post will only affect your probability of being reblogged.
Q. Will you reblog my post?
Due to the sheer number of content posted during Whumptober we can’t promise to reblog every single post. We will make a random selection trying to capture a wide variety of content. The following will increase your chances at being reblogged:
tag your post properly
post within 2-3 days of the theme you want to fill: if you fill the prompt for Day 1 your chances of being reblogged during October 1st to 3rd are highest and will go towards zero afterwards.
Q. What if I don’t understand a prompt/theme?
Send us an ask! We’re happy to help with wild, unhelpful clarifications or brainstorming. That being said, the themes are entirely up for interpretation. Don’t take them too literally. For example: You can be choking on a cherry, someone else can choke you or you could be choked up on emotions, etc.
Q. What kind of content can I make? Can it be NSFW?
This is a MIXED MEDIA event! You can write fic, post meta, doodle or paint, create a gifset or photo edit, link a song, or get crafty with video - anything goes. As for NSFW, make what you like, we just hope that you’ll tag your work accordingly so that others participating in the event can stay safe.
Q. Can I combine Whumptober with other creation challenges?
Absolutely, as long as the other challenges allow it too.
Q. Can I upload/repost my Whumptober content to other social media platforms?
Of course! You can post your own content wherever you like (or you can opt to not publish it at all). Additionally we’ve created an AO3 Collection to archive any fics posted there. It can be accessed here. The tumblr blog @whumptober-archive is the official archive, so please respect the boundaries of any closeted whumpers in your social circle.
Q. Can I use prompts to write a new chapter for an existing fic?
Yes.
Q. An existing fic I am currently writing contains many of the Whumptober prompts, can I use it?
If you are actively writing this fic at the moment with the Whumptober prompts in mind, yes. If you’ve previously posted something that checks the boxes, we ask that you not include it retroactively for this current year. You can, however, add new chapters relating to one or more of the prompts.
Q. What kind of characters can I write for?
Fandom characters, OC characters, human, furry, alien, cyborg, RPF, whoever you like. You can use the generic “whumpee” character or have specific ones.
Q. Does it have to take place in a specific fandom?
No, you can create works for your own worlds or for fandoms or for both. You can also create more generic or pan-fandom works. You can do cross-overs or use OCs, whatever you want.
Q. Can I use a prompt multiple times?
Yes, but it only counts once towards being a completionist.
Q. If I’m not comfortable with one day’s prompts can I use a prompt of a different day as a substitute and still be a completionist?
No, you can’t exchange prompts for different days. However, if all four prompts of a specific day make you uncomfortable, we have created an alternate prompts list that you can draw from. You can exchange any prompt with these, but please make sure not to use them twice.
Q. Where can I post my work?
Post where and how you want. You don’t have to (cross)post it to Tumblr or at all. Just keep in mind if it’s not on Tumblr we will not be able to add it to the blog archive.
Q. Can I start posting early?
You can, but this is an October event and wouldn’t it be more fun with everyone doing it at the same time? That being said, you can post early, but we won’t be reblogging any work predating October 1st.
Q. Do I have to finish a fic I started/can I post WIP’s?
Yes you can post WIPs. And you’re not obligated to finish it in October for it to count towards being a completionist.
Q. Is co-writing allowed?
Yes, absolutely, and it would count towards being a completionist for both/all of you.
Q. Do I have to create 31 standalone pieces to be considered a completionist or can I write one continuous story?
One continuous story is fine. The challenge is to write something for 31 prompts. If that’s spread over 31 fics or just one, you are still considered a completionist. (The same goes for every other media you choose.)
Q. Is there a min/max limit on word count?
There is no limit.
Q. Can I combine prompts? Is there a limit on how many?
No limit and combine as many as you’d like.
Q. Is a hc/angst/emotional whump focus ok?
Of course! We are not going to establish a threshold for whumpiness. If you think it’s whumpy enough, then it’s whumpy enough. It can be physical, psychological, emotional, or any combination of the three.
Q. What’s considered nsfw?
See this post
Q. What is whump?
Typically the genre includes situations where a fictional character is hurt, be it emotionally, psychologically, or physically. Fanlore provides information here.
Q. My interpretation of the prompt isn’t whumpy at all, does that count?
If you don’t think your interpretation is whumpy, then it doesn’t count for Whumptober. Remember that whump comes in many forms, though, and that we don’t have a whump-checker or a threshold for how much whump needs to be included. If you think your interpretation contains enough whump to count, then it does.
Q. Can I start working on the prompts before October?
Absolutely! That’s why we post the prompts a month in advance. We recognise how difficult it can be creating for 31 days in “real time” so feel free to start creating early!
Q. How do I tag triggers?
tw at the end of the word, ex. #gore tw
Q. Do I have to use your tags?
Yes, if you want your work archived on the blog. If not, feel free to use whatever tags you want.
Q. Does combining prompts count towards completion?
Yes
Q. Can we @ you?
Yes but we mostly rely on the #whumptober2023 tag.
Q. Is there anything we are absolutely not allowed to write?
There are no rules, but please make sure to properly tag your trigger warnings. And keep in mind Tumblr’s policies if you are posting it here (or the policies for whatever site you use).
Q. Where can I go for brainstorming help?
Here on Discord or come into our ask box.
Q. My characters are minors, is that ok?
Yes, but as with everything else, use clear and descriptive tags.
Q. Can I cross post on other blogs?
Yes, multiple platforms and blogs are perfectly acceptable. You can also post different works to different accounts under different names, without posting them everywhere at once.
Note: This is a creation challenge, please don’t repost your old work under our tags (unless it’s been changed or edited for the event).
Thanks for reading, and happy whumping!

Can I ask about your bg3 Hank? What’s his class, who’s his guardian? Durge or no? Any romances?
You absolutely may ask about my Baldur's Gate 3 character who may or may not be Hank McCoy!
This is my most recent screenshot of him!
I have literally just finished Act 1, so please no spoilers, but at current, he is:
A Level 5 Bard in the College of Swords, with a Level 2 multi-class into Monk! I figured this made the most sense as a translation for Hank's high intellect and martial prowess while still maintaining a more pacifistic outlook - it also means he gets just as many funny answers in dialogue as he does wise ones.
A Half-Orc! This accounts for his incredibly cute tusks. The yellow eye make-up is meant to evoke his feline form's yellow eyes and give him a more striking look. The earrings are a holdover from Dark Beast, who has very similar rings in his art.
STR: 10 DEX: 14 CON: 12 INT: 14 WIS: 13 CHA: 16. These aren't necessarily what I think Hank's DnD stats would be, but frankly, Hank doesn't really have a dump stat, he'd be, like, 18-20 in everything, and you miss out on fun feats by doing that.
Currently wearing Gloves of Dexterity, setting his DEX to 18!
Currently wearing Warped Headband of Intellect, setting his INT to 17!
Not going Dark Urge for Hank. Doesn't feel like it'd fit - but I definitely plan on doing at least one other playthrough. I might do it as Dark Beast, who would definitely qualify - he might be a Rogue/Druid or something of that type? I know I want to mess with Druid at some point.
I actually didn't take any pictures of his Dream Visitor/guardian. Oops. Next time they appear in a cutscene, I will make sure to take caps!
Romances? Oh, hell yes. At the moment, I'm romancing Shadowheart, but flirting heavily with Halsin, since it's my understanding you can go poly with those two, and . . . honestly, I really like them both. Halsin's got the big daddy elf thing going on, and Shadowheart is honestly just sweet. She's nice. We cuddled.
Lae'zel craved Hank's moisture, but I did not relinquish it.
I'm also wearing Minthara's At-Ease Clothes dyed yellow around camp because they feel very classic Hank, not least because they show off his muscles and chest hair.
If you want the exact settings (colour tones, hair, etc) that I used to make Hank, then let me know and I can post them - I'm playing on PS5, so everything available there will be available vanilla on PC. Wish I could have mods to give him glasses, but tbh, I'm very happy with how he's turned out so far!

20 questions for fic writers
Thank you @niennawept @melestasflight @sallysavestheday @spiritofwhitefire @grey-gazania for the tag! I've enjoyed reading all of yours.
1. How many works do you have on Ao3? 89 on main, 12 on my pseud, 2 anon.
2. What’s your total Ao3 word count? 284k on main.
3. What fandoms do you write for? Silmarillion.
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
The Seven Trials of Fingon the Valiant (Fingon/Sons of Feanor humour)
Who Shall Release Us? (Maedhros post-reembodiment angst)
A Gift (M&M childhood fluff)
Improving Relations (Maglor & Caranthir fluff)
A Proposition (Russinglor smut)
Y'all are predictable, but I do enjoy all of these myself so. Good choices.
5. Do you respond to comments? Always. Unless they're rude, in which case I delete them without replying.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I'm reading the last lines of my fics trying to find one that ends with pure angst and laughing because they're all like "... but there was hope."
Anyway, The Marks that Bind Us (Celegorm/OC) and His Hour Had Come (Saeros & OC) end on a sinister note.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Pretty much everything in my Sex Is Fun series. People have sex, it's fun, the end :).
8. Do you get hate on fics? Not hate, but I've had a couple people be rude, like commenting on a word choice they didn't like and nothing else. *Delete*.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Shamelessly. Prolifically. Joyfully. I co-mod @silmsmutweek with the marvellously shameless @ettelene. I'd say my niche is fun sex... hot elves + open communication + laughter. I've written dark stuff too though.
As with most in this fandom, my smut is mostly M/M but I'm proud of the amount of F/M smut I've written. Which is a weird thing to be proud of, if this weren't Silm fandom.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? No. Keep thinking about doing something with Silm + Greek myth but it's amorphous.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated? No.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? Yes! The Seven Trials of Fingon the Valiant with @melestasflight and currently co-writing with the same. I love it.
Besides that, almost everything I've ever posted is some level of collaborative, whether it be with some big-brained anonymous prompter on silmkinkmeme or by shoving a mess of words at a friend and crying, "Help!" etc etc. I cannot and do not create in a vacuum, at all.
14. What’s your all time favorite ship? Maglor/Most Anyone.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? If I want to finish it, I probably will. There are a lot of things I don't want to finish, and I won't.
16. What are your writing strengths? Language and characterisation. Editing.
17. What are your writing weaknesses? I was going to say "Perfectionism", then started questioning if that made me sound like an asshole, and whether people would get what I meant by that, and so then I started making a whole list of things I don't think I am good at, and have so far spent about 10 minutes on this question, and ... you see the irony here?
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? I don't know, I wouldn't do it (unless my universal disclaimer -- "Except if it's funny." -- applies.)
19. First fandom you wrote for? Silmarillion, in 2003. There was then a 17 year break. I have no other fandoms and need no other fandoms.
20. Favourite fic you’ve written? Refuse to answer.
I have a feeling a lot of people have done this over the last week while I have been buried in work but @ettelene @tethysresort @millenariumhappinesstheorem @a-tehta @gwaedhannen @zealouswerewolfcollector I don't think I saw one from you so please feel welcome to share these, if you like.

Hello Terralien members, I’m posting this to clear up any misconceptions and explain.
I had joined Terraliens because a couple friends of mine were in it, I had been told to stay is the supporter lounge and to not go into the main channels of the server form a friend.
This is why I thought the server was mostly adults, because in the supporter lounge. Majority of the active members in it are 18+, mostly in their mid 20’s early 30’s or just freshly 18.
The reason I refuse to interact with minors online is because in the past when I had just turned 18 I was in a relationship with someone younger than me by a year (they were 17), I was harassed by other individuals who were 15-17, a small handful being 18, for being ‘gross’ and dating a 17 year old when I had only just turned 18 (we were both 17 when the relationship started). I have never been able to interact with younger people without being disliked or bullied for my interests and how I am as a person (who visibly has AuDHD with my strong stims and characteristics), but whenever I had talked to adults they were more patient and understanding of me? I felt more safe and comfortable interacting with the adults.
These adults then gave me the idea to go 18+ to interact, since they were the same just because they wanted to talk about things more in depth on their topics of interest without censorship, topics of which would include criminology, psychology, ect which can pertain extremely sensitive subjects.
I liked this idea and I ran with it.
Now as for the suggestion channel;
the idea of the 18+ channels were originally suggested by other individuals in the chat, I had just given more reasons people may want them. I generally don’t care what people do for their servers, and all I do is give more positive and negative reasons for other people’s ideas rather than suggest my own.
I had being very much in a joke tone the entire conversation in that suggestion thread forum thing, because I thought that’s what everyone did? Now I realise it was the wrong time to make jokes. The bridgeton joke was made because my friends who frequently read this blog made the joke on a post and had sent it in our group chat, so I had used it too as it seemed relevant to joke about at the time.
I only ever use TikTok brainrot as a joke, any of my friends could tell you this. I find using TikTok brain rot such as “womp womp” in serious conversations distracting and severely immature. Hense why I had the /j tone tag to the message, adding on, it was towards one of my friends.
When the chat mentioned Xil was a minor when joining smile demons, I had gotten worried because it was worded in a way that Xil was still currently a minor so I asked about it and expressed my discomfort. Then I had found that someone else in the chat was a minor, keep in mind my friends had told me to block any minors who initiate contact with me in chats for this server, so that’s exactly what I did.
My friend that was in chat asked me a question, to which I answered, “I enjoy banning people on the vrchat group I administrate in” and later clarifying that I enjoyed it because the members, mods, owners, other admins and I make a joke towards the trolls and minors we kick/ban from the group before taking that action.
this friend and I were visibly getting distracted with the talk about vrchat to I initiated to move to the supporter lounge, where I had been told to only talk in from other friends, that is when the mocking had started and I got extremely uncomfortable.
I do apologise for misinterpreting the situation and tone in the suggestion forum, I severely struggle with tone in text, voice and facial expressions so I found it extremely hard to understand where people were coming from after I made a couple jokes and gave some positive and negative reasons to a suggestion made by someone else.
However, I will not be rejoining as this species clearly has no improvements happening in it. And it’s not just staffs fault.
if you guys as members want improvement so badly, improve how you treat each other, the staff and change how you all act towards everything.
And here is all the screenshots with context, instead of the ones the blog got that took everything out of context,
post related
alright im gonna try to be more gentle in this post
so first of all the “cutting out context,” in my original post i was trying to lean into the “alpha with a cold heart” motif with saying you were “striking fear into the heart of the 17 year old you were talking fine with 5 minutes ago.” it was meant to be a joke, i dont actually think you were trying to intimidate a 17 year old. in addition to that, since it was a joke, i really didnt think the fact you were talking to cat specifically was some big crazy detail that flipped the narrative on its head, it was something incredibly minute and had no effect on the general convo in my opinion. but if you see it differently then my bad.
one of your friends actually came into my dms yesterday to beat me over the head with this and try to say im “twisting the narrative,” i wasnt even able to reply because they deleted their acc after
i really did not think it was that heinous of a crime and that it was THAT important that you were talking directly to cat, the bigger point is was making was that it comes off as you were showing off and trying to be the rick friend by saying its fun to block minors.
another issue i have with your statements is that, if you supposedly knew little to nothing about the terra server because you only hung around in supporter lounge, why would you try to speak like an authority when saying that youve seen more adults than minors in the server? im gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and say you probably dont know a lot about the community of terras, but the fact is an 18+ channel even if sfw just isnt something that should be there. if you really want an 18+ community then you need to look in other places instead of trying to put one up in terras. its a “time and place” thing, terras definitely isnt the place and if you want to talk about the topics you gave without having to interact with minors then respectfully go somewhere else
and finally as for your actual reasoning with blocking all minors, im gonna say it seems like you went from one terminally online community to another. (if you dont know what terminally online means, im referring to people who are so deep in their own internet bubble that they lose touch with reality and spew opinions that no rational human would believe.) nobody in the real world would care at all that you were 18 dating a 17 year old, most people online dont even care about that, and it seems like the community you were in was just really toxic regardless of whether they were minors or not. it seems to me like after that you really jumped wayy to the opposite extreme and went on the “i will never ever speak to minors again ever” which is a terrible approach. you can have normal conversations with minors without it being weird, most people whos brains arent completely rotted by the internet take no issue with someone having a causal conversation with someone below the age of 18. for example, when i was 16 i worked at a job where most of the other employees were middle aged or older, and it was perfectly fine. they talked to me like i was a normal person and it was never weird, nobody ever came up and screamed that its weird and creepy
heres my genuine advice for you, i think you need to go outside more and talk to people in the real world. genuinely. not in a “omg ur so weird go touch grass way,” it seems like you are a person who is extremely susceptible to the opinions of whatever group youre in, and people in the real world would never actually have an issue with the things youve said. nobody with sense would care about a 17 year old being in a relationship with an 18 year old, nobody would care that an adult is having a normal conversation with a minor, and nobody would care especially considering that youre only 19. most people in the real world see 19 year olds as just a step above high schoolers in terms of maturity and behavior, you dont need to police yourself in the extreme way you do currently. it seems like being in these really incredibly online spaces has surrounded you with people who dont have your best interest in mind and have a really warped view on reality. try to go easier on yourself, you will be fine if you just talk normally to minors, and any rational person will never see an issue with it.

In my test hood all the time when it comes to picture taking, but in normal gameplay I don’t use it that often.
5. Favorite mod?
Can’t say, I have way to many which I always need in my game.
6. First expansion/game/stuff pack you got?
It’s always with Pets, no matter which Sims part it is. ^^ I need pets in my games. :)
7. Do you pronounce “live mode” like aLIVE or LIVing?
I don’t know what it means or why it’s important. o.O
8. Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made?
Julia Zimmermann. :)
9. Have you made a simself?
Yes. Mary-Jean Baker was my first self-Sim, the newest version was Avalonia.
10. What sim traits do you give yourself?
Lazy, cat lover (is there a trait for shy introvert?)
11. Which is your favorite EA hair color?
The red looks nice.
12. Favorite EA hair?
I will steal this one from Esotheria: hairshortcombed . ^^ It’s always the only one that I never have a default for in my game.
13. Favorite life stage?
Adults, sometimes teens (depends on the Sim).
14. Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay?
I’m bad at building worlds or houses- I’m mostly in for gameplay or CC testing in my test hood.
15. Are you a CC creator?
I wouldn’t call myself a creator. o.O I sometimes upload stuff I made, but not on a regular basis.
16. Do you have any simblr friends/a sim squad?
I made some friends on here and I hope they are not angry about me when I don’t reply messages that often. :(
17. What’s your favorite game? (1, 2, 3, or 4)
My first love was TS1 and now it’s TS2. The other two are only fun for me since I recreated Hendrik.
18. Do you have any sims merch?
No.
19. Do you have a YouTube for sims?
No.
20. How has your “sim style” changed throughout your years of playing?
I guess this picture answer it very well. The one in black is how my original Hendrik Hupfner looked like, that’s how my game 10 years ago looked like, with glittery skin, more realistic hair and eyes. The other version of Hendrik is how he mostly looks like in my TS2-game, more maxis match skin and eyes, tattoo boxes (who ever invented them, they are the reason why Hendrik finally can look like he always should: with lots of tattoos. ^^)
21. What’s your Origin ID?
I have one but I gave it to only one person on here, I have nothing to offer over there.
22. Who’s your favorite CC creator?
There are so many wonderful people that make great CC that I love in my game. To name everyone would take years!
23. How long have you had a simblr?
My first post was in April 2016 so I guess that was the start.
24. How do you edit your pictures?
I sometimes use Reshade (different sets) but never for CC previews! Next to that I only crop my pictures, that’s all.
25. What expansion/game/stuff pack do you want next?
Not planing to get anything for any Sims soon.
25. What expansion/game/stuff pack is your favorite so far?
All EPs with Pets (all four games). ^^
I often tag people who never reply so I’m not tagging someone. If you like to do it feel free to jump in. :)

Sims - get to know me
I was tagged by @druidberries & @m0n0lithical! Thank yall for the tags!
I rarely actually play the game so take my answers with a grain of salt but this should be fun!
1. What’s your favourite sims death? Cowplant, hands down
2. Alpha CC or Maxis Match? For the longest time I was strictly Maxis Match but recently I've been way more Maxis Mix and I'm loving it
3. Do you cheat when your sims gain weight? Nah I let it happen!
4. Do you use move objects? Religiously, I cannot build without it. Routing be damned!
5. Favorite mod? BBB, I cannot play this game without it. I also get ornery if I don't have UI cheats extension and more CAS columns.
6. First expansion/game/stuff pack you got? I was on the Sims 4 bandwagon from day 1, so Outdoor Retreat.
7. Do you pronounce “live mode” like aLIVE or LIVing? Living. You've got build, buy, and live, at least that's how my brain rationalizes it.
8. Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made? I'm obsessed with all of my rpg oc sims (Ariss, Katya, Nat, Kai, Calista, etc), but probably my favorite sim-sim, well that's hard too. I really love my Simeon Silversweater makeover, and Rhiannon Reinhardt is prob my fave original sim.
9. Have you made a simself? I have! I've made myself, my husband and our dog (: One day I'll have to render them and post pics, I'm sure they all need an update now.
10. What sim traits do you give yourself? Clumsy, creative, & paranoid lmao
11. Which is your favorite EA hair color? Idk prob black or dark brown, so many of the other swatches look unnatural to me. I like the fun colors though, esp the lighter blue/cyan-y swatch.
12. Favorite EA hair? In terms of design, I really liked the braids that came with RoM and the really cool swatches, but I rarely ever use that hair.
13. Favorite life stage? YA cause it's the only one with adequate gameplay oops lmfao
14. Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay? BUILDER I rarely play the game at all but if I am I'm probably building. It seems every time I actually get into gameplay (which is rare in itself) something (a patch) comes along and breaks everything to the point where I can't anymore and I lose love for it all over again.
15. Are you a CC creator? I am! But only barely haha. I've made a few recolors and some art, but nothing from scratch YET. Soon hopefully
16. Do you have any simblr friends/a sim squad? I do! I'm a moderator of @cozyacres's Cozy Cave discord server and I LOVE out little community there! I've also got so many wonderful mutuals here I love you all so much.
17. What’s your favorite game? Sims 3 was fantastic and if I remembered more of it I'd probably say 3, but I got really invested in the community for 4 and it does hold a special place in my heart even if it's deeply flawed. So, 4.
18. Do you have any sims merch? I do not.
19. Do you have a YouTube for sims? I have an account but I haven't posted anything yet! I'd like to one day post speed builds and speed renders, I just need to figure out my recording process (I tab out of what I'm doing so often that I feel like the editing would take a million years for me to remove all of my discord chats lmfao)
20. How has your “sim style” changed throughout your years of playing? I feel like my actual sims style hasn't changed too much, except that I've incorporated a lot more maxis mix/alpha into my style, but that's mostly for rendering and not actual gameplay.
21. What’s your Origin ID? SalemsSims! I have a few CC-free builds on the gallery (:
22. Who’s your favorite CC creator? This is an impossible question to answer. I love so many for gameplay vs render resources.
23. How long have you had a simblr? I just legit checked cause I wasn't sure and it turns out I've been shitposting since 2019! Who knew!? lmao
24. How do you edit your pictures? I'm lucky enough to mooch off my dad's photoshop license. For renders and screenshots alike, I'll edit the brightness, contrast, levels and curves and then use a collection of PS actions/tweaking/blur/vignettes etc as necessary to get the effect I want.
25. What expansion/game/stuff pack is your favorite so far? It's really hard to say... I've been excited for each one of them then disappointed in each one of them lmfao what a mood. I gotta say I was really pleasantly surprised by Werewolves, and HSY exceeded my expectations, even though both had their fair share of disappointments. I don't think I really have a favorite overall though (which is def a side effect of... not actually playing the game, lmao). But those two actually got me playing the game and that's saying something.
26. What expansion/game/stuff pack do you want next? Oops I own them all so, whatever comes next that strikes my fancy. Idk how I feel about the horse rumors though... we'll see if it's actually good or just another disappointment.
Tagging @chaoticsimlish, @reality-refuge, @raiiny-bay, @glammoose, @buttertrait, @crsentfairy, @glittermutt, @crazy-lazy-elder-sims & anyone else who wants to do this! My brain turns into a goldfish whenever it's time to tag so pls don't be offended if I didn't tag you!
#sims get to know me tag#ask game replies#replies#would this be more interesting if I actually played?#maybe lmao

Sims Tag Game! <3
I was tagged by the awesome @cyazurai ! Thank you!
1. What’s your favourite sims death?
I'd say the cow plant one? Most of my sims die of old age...
2. Alpha CC or Maxis Match?
Mostly maxis match, but I do have a few pieces that lean more on the alpha side, also I use alpha makeup and jewellery.
3. Do you cheat when your sims gain weight?
I used to use the thin reward potion, but that would make them a bit too thin for my liking, so now the sims who actually would care about their appearance and weight (like Auretta) exercise to lose weight, the ones who aren't the exercising type (like David) don't.
4. Do you use move objects?
Hahahahahaha. If you've been here for a while you know i HATE moveobjects with a passion. So no, I do not use it. Except for somecreativecc's collection displays because I need those too much.
5. Favorite mod?
Relationship and pregnancy overhaul. I can't play without it anymore.
6. First expansion/game/stuff pack you got?
Either Get Together or Get to Work. I don't remember.
7. Do you pronounce “live mode” like aLIVE or LIVing?
...Neither, I say "life mode" because the French for it translates to that.
8. Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made?
Mavis Sane, of course. Honorable mention to the queen herself, Auretta Cornwell, and to her sibling Farren Cornwell.
9. Have you made a simself?
Yes, but I never posted her here I think? But she exists and she looks pretty accurate if I dare say so!
10. What sim traits do you give yourself?
Family oriented, cat lover, creative.
11. Which is your favorite EA hair color?
The OG black for some reason. It's the one I use the most.
12. Favorite EA hair?
That snowy escape straight short hair everyone made a billion edits of.
13. Favorite life stage?
Toddlers, toddlers, toddlers!
14. Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay?
Both! But I play more than I build.
15. Are you a CC creator?
Yes!
16. Do you have any simblr friends/a sim squad?
I do! I love talking about sims and meeting new people so that helps!
17. What’s your favorite game? (1, 2, 3, or 4)
Definitely 4, though 2 was my childhood.
18. Do you have any sims merch?
I do actually! two tote bags, one with Grim on it, and one that says 100 baby challenge!
19. Do you have a YouTube for sims?
No. Well yes but there's nothing on it. I think my computer would die if I tried to record my sims game while playing.
20. How has your “sim style” changed throughout your years of playing?
I'm not sure it has, what changed is the cc I use, like skin overlays and makeup and such.
21. What’s your Origin ID?
TheKinaQueen
22. Who’s your favorite CC creator?
I can't pick just one... I love laeska's hair, trillyke's clothes, jius's shoes, praline's makeup... and so many others!
23. How long have you had a simblr?
since 2018 I believe.
24. How do you edit your pictures?
I run a photoshop action and crop them. That's it, no reshade here.
25. What expansion/game/stuff pack do you want next?
Well, I'm not missing that many, only Strangerville, Batuu and Bowling stuff. Out of the three, I'm most likely to get Strangerville, but I'd get some kits first (book nook, greenhouse, pastel pop, everyday clutter)
26. What expansion/game/stuff pack is your favorite so far?
Either Seasons or Cats & Dogs. I'd say C&D cause it comes with a world and seasons doesn't.
I don't know who to tag, once again... If you wanna do this and haven't been tagged yet, consider yourself tagged, and do tag me so I see your answers!

1. Why did you choose your url?
I used to have a Doctor Who url but had stopped posting about dw regularly, but I’d routinely get dw followers. So I was saying to someone that I should change my url because it felt like false advertising, “since my blog is just goats and gangsters now” AND THEN!!!
2. Any side blogs?
yeah, but my main is my only personal blog
like I have a sideblog where I review teas or some fandom blogs that I’m a mod on, but those are all Public Facing about a specific topic
I don’t have any personal sideblogs that are like “oh this is my sideblog for fandom, this is my sideblog for aesthetic,” cause it all just goes on here on the main
3. How long have you been on tumblr?
Since March 2010
4. Do you have a queue tag?
No because I queue everything so that’d be redundant
5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?
in high school @l8rhader was like “you should get a tumblr” and I went home and went on tumbler.com and found nothing and was confused, but somehow I figured it out
6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?
I like Charlie, and I like purple, and I already had this screenshot edited and lying around.
fun fact: it’s a reject from this edit. but because he has the bright window behind him, it didn’t take the purple well so I didn’t use it for the edit but wound up making it my icon (I didn’t edit the background to make it white, it’s legit just a brightly lit window)
7. Why did you choose your header?
I like succulents and the purpleness of it matches the aforementioned Charlie
8. What’s your post with the most notes?
this post about les mis that I made in 2013 that somehow got 51k notes??
anyway, thanks nick-from-high-school-on-facebook. you netted me a popular tumblr post.
9. How many mutuals do you have?
.........how does anyone check that?
10. How many followers do you have?
2,433 right now, but that’s also buildup over 10+ years on tumblr and only a portion of those people are still active
11. How many people do you follow?
546, with the same caveat that only a portion are actually active blogs
12. Have you ever made a shit post?
I assume this is asking about shitposts and not just, a post that is shit. but I definitely do shitpost. why bother if you don’t shitpost ever now and again?
13. How often do you use tumblr a day?
that depends on the day and how bored I am! but definitely I open it at least once a day
14. Did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog?
ehehehehehehehe yes and I remember each one specifically. but I’ve NEVER sent anyone anon hate, I can tell you that with certainty.
15. How do you feel about the ‘you need to reblog’ posts?
Well Now I’m Not Gonna
16. Do you like tag games?
I can’t guarantee they won’t languish in my drafts, never completed, but I like getting tagged
17. Do you like ask games?
do I always manage to actually ANSWER the asks from the ask games? no! rarely, in fact! but do I like ask games? yes!
18. Which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?
I doooon’t think any of my mutuals are tumblr famous, but I do Know the people involved in several famous tumblr posts
For Example, you know the one post everyone hates about the professors who teach various subjects and are all fucking each other? I know about half of them from college. do I follow any of them on tumblr? no, but I see them and I’m like “oh hey [first name last name]”
19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?
shh don’t tell anyone but I have a crush on @meyerlansky
20. Tags!
@meyerlansky who I definitely don’t have a crush on or anything, @l8rhader who brought me to hellscape (affectionate) in the first place, @thefractaldragon (who is the “somebody” I was talking to in question #1 about my url being false advertising), @naomisnagata, @runn0ft, @fancykraken, @waltzingtostars, @hacash
and also anyone who sees this and wants to do it too (I didn’t want to tag too many people at once, so I kept it short and sweet)
#about me#I realize my first answer is ironic given that I queued this between a bunch of DW gifsets#but that was a one-off 'WE rewatched an episode' moment#not the same as The Hype of Yesteryear

all of them that don't get asked by others :3
1. what’s the last screenshot you’ve taken for your story?
2. describe your story in three words or less.
Dragons, reapers, love
3. describe Hayle in three words or less
dad-friend, caretaker, kid-magnet
4. how did you choose the name of your story?
I quite honestly suck at naming things.. so it became what it is.. A story about a Reaper and a dragon, and their family :) The other story was a spin on Stranger things tbh since it came to be when I wanted to play Strangerville XD
5. Answered here
6. how long have you been working on your story for?
A little over a year now.. it started as a BC, and then just came to life on its own.
7. Answered here
8. Answered here
9. what about your story are you looking to improve on?
Writing can always get better, it's a challenge on its own to write in another language after all. And I can also get better with screenshots for the story. It is probably by far my weakest point still.
10. is your story fully planned or are you still working things out? is there a definitive end?
It's a work in progress. It is not planned out and atm, there is no planned end. Ideas get written down, changed, altered, taken out, and so on. All with the help of @mahvaladara who has become a co-writer and idea maker at this point, and I am super thankful for all the time they put into this story as well. This story would not be remotely the same without them.
11. Why have you decided to tell this story? are there any messages or meanings within it?
In the beginning, it wasn't. It was as mentioned before never meant to be a story, it just became one. But as it has moved on, I guess my message is, that even if you have "everything" you might not be happy, your not perfect even as the son of a god, and life will still throw challenges in your face.
12. do you actually play the game or do you just use it as a storytelling medium?
Mostly its become just a storyteller's medium. Gameplay in sims is generally dull, but there has been occasions where I do gameplay, like the start of The Stranger trio, where I played the Strangerville story and the times they have been in the jungle. Other than that, I use it purely as a story medium by now.
13. from basic planning to a finished post, how long does that take you?
My workflow is a bit different than what is said here. Depending on the story. For Derek and Toshi's stuff I write a chapter, then take pictures to said chapter, and then I queue up said chapter,
For the wards, it's rp'd out with @mahvaladara, then I take that and use it for writing a chapter, and then take pictures of said chapter, then it gets queued when it's all done and ready.
14. Answered here
15. What have been the highlights of creating your story?
Seeing how it evolved, and what happened after I reached out to someone for them to make a certain young dragon as a best friend for Hayden. And knowing at least one or two people get angry with my choices sometimes!
16. what about the process do you enjoy?
The planning, the rping, the idea bouncing and writing it all down.
17. What about the process do you hate?
I admit, the posing of sims, searching hours on end for the right pose, realizing there is no such thing, and then having to use more hours with tool mod and manipulating different poses together to somewhat work.
18. Answered here
19. Choose a song that reminds you of Hayden (did Rylan here)
youtube
20. Answered here
21. Choose your least favorite shot so far
It just looks wierd...
23: choose a favorite character from your story so far
I mean.. I love them all.. but Hayle holds a certain spot in my heart, he has grown so much!
24. are there any characters who remind you of yourself?
Not directly, but they all have tiny pieces of me in them. For instance, Hayden has an illness that is incurable like mine (I made him worse though, the poor thing). But none of them directly remind me of me.
25. What inspirations have you drawn on for your story?
Just about any supernatural movie, tv series, and game you can imagine. Also, we have the inspiration from other simblrs, and of course @mahvaladara most excellent dragon lore! I keep learning from them, and I am so grateful!
26. Answered here
27. What genres would you describe your story as?
Fantasy, love story, drama. If you add Stranger things, a little bit of "Horror."
28. if you could reproduce your story in another medium (movie, novel, comic, etc.) what would you choose and why?
It would be pretty awesome to see it as a tv-series.. but also a comic. A tv series, because it could really add all the fancy effects and dragons and so on, travel between universes and all those things. Of course, a comic could do the same.
29. What would your story’s rating be? (G, PG, M etc.)
I guess M (Mature) I am honestly not the best with knowing ratings, to old to think much about it
30. if you were leaving simblr and had to choose another creator to continue the story for you, who would you ask?
@mahvaladara they know my my/our story as well as I do so it is the logical choice. Also @dandylion240 be an option for the love of the characters I know they have.
31. drop some random trivia about your story
I have plans for different occults to enter the story, so it will expand on dragons and reapers. Dragon wings and horn are annoying things, they clash with so much other cc you would not believe it!
32. give a light spoiler.
Someone is more than they seem to be. (😎)
33. recommend another creator’s story!
@mahvaladara of course, I think theirs are the ones that continuously make me snicker.. and downright laugh out loud from time to time.
@dandylion240 so many stories, although I have a few favorites. Family stories, with a touch of the occult = win!
@lazysunjade Her stories are top-notch, as is the art that she does with her screenshots.
@fataleromeo I love this woman's story enough to get angry with her for her choices sometimes, this speaks a lot to the goodness!
#ask game#thank you for that one#I do like to answer these#so yes#I am happy to get one that says them all#lazysunjade#i admit the light spoiler is very light#very very light#but well it is also true#the ward legacy: extras#the stranger trio: extras
