Shigeru and Sachiko were close to a quiet retirement before their granddaughter Kaori was suddenly placed in their care

[ruthplaysthesims]

Hi! I'm here for the yes/no game (again). If Kiyoshi had grown a spine before and didn't leave (AU), do you think Kaori and him would have stayed together in the long run? 👀

Yes.

THE NISHIDAKE FAMILY

Here's my version of the Nishidake family ! Keep reading to discover their story. :)

(Their house was made by the extremely talented @ploufzizi along with the Onsen at which Sachiko works.)

Household description

The Nishidake are considered as pillars of Mt. Komorebi society, the rumor says that they are the sacred guardians of the place. Indeed, while Shigeru organizes the great fall of the Ito House by corrupting their first born during their martial arts class in his dojo, Sachiko takes care of her community, physically as well as psychologically. Kaori moved t Mt. Komorebi with her elders after her parents passed away mysteriously... She hass a cruh on Kiyoshi Ito - like half of the school - but can't keep herself from having a bad feeling when she hangs out with him. Maybe it's just the grief talking or maybe his family has something to hid in their mysterious mansion...

Sachiko Nishidake

Elder

Massage therapist at the Onsen (by @ploufzizi)

Wise

Loves outdoors

Generous

Chopstick savvy

Incredibly friendly

With the death of her son, Sachiko has now too many people to visit at the Mt. Komorebi cemetery. Indeed, her childhood bestfriend Asami Natsukashii rests there too. But grieving does not stop her from taking care of the ones left behind - like Kaori and Megum i- with good meals and massages. Her granddaughter has been a real ray of sunshine in the household ven though Sachiko's heart breaks every night when she hears Kaori cry.

Shigeru Nishidake

Elder

Dojo instructor

Hot-headed

Glutton

Cringe

Mentor

Chopstick savvy

Shigeru is a passionate iunstructor of martial arts but since the death of his son, his mojo has been fragile. He cannot stay calm no matter how much he meditates but he channels his anger towards the Ito family and their modernizatin plan... To ruin it, he influences his long-time student, Kiyoshi Ito. The last thing he wants is to betray his trainee but he needs to make sure that the son will never take upon the task of his father.

Kaori Nishidake

Teen

Extreme Sports enthusiast

Socially Awkward

Adventurous

Chopstick savvy

In the know

Kaori, who had always been of a cheerful nature has, since the death of her parents become a gllomy sim. The only thing that cheers her up is to spend time snowboarding. She moved from San Myshuno to Mt. Komorebi and has lost her friends in the process. Though she tries to hang out with teens here, she has a bad feeling in her gut especially when around Kiyoshi.

I hope you like them as much as I do, the Kaori-Shigeru duo is really fun to play because of their respective traits (Socially awkward and Cringe) and I absolutely adore sending Sachiko on hikes.

Rumor says the Nishidake family are sacred guardians of Mt. Komorebi. Indeed, Shigeru fumes over the Ito family’s local development plans. Sachiko, however, feels warmly toward Megumi due to an old friendship with the young woman’s mom. Plus, she knows what’s in her granddaughter’s heart… Kaori moved to Mt. Komorebi after losing her parents. She soon discovered two loves: the slopes, and the son of her grandfather’s sworn enemy! If she had one wish, she’d melt her grandfather’s hardened heart.

i love pretending to be productive by planning builds, sims/households, and storylines that i probabaly won't get around to working on in game for the next few months 🤞😁

[changingplumbob]

Boy oh boy this has been a long one! Sorry it's taken so long. Rotation 9 began all the way back on March 20th which means it's taken me around six and a half months to get through everyone. During this time I have also been plagued by a bad IBS flare up that leaves me fatigued so my guess is that's why things took much longer than normal.

While all households collectively aged a year and three quarters when you put it all together we've lived through 17 and a half years of sim time for a total of 70 sim days. Thank you for joining me on the journey! I'm going to be taking the rest of the month of October off from long form writing while I build SBL back up and engage in Simblreen antics. Rotations and Growing with Glenn will start back up in November.

Now, on to the noteworthy stuff! Main points followed by chapter summaries below the cut. Time to celebrate my sims achievements!

Five Sims Promoted - One max career!

Nine Skills Maxed

Eight New Builds

Seven Birthdays

One Wedding

Four Household Adoptions

York Household, Chapter 9

Calista and Aaron made their first nectar but mostly they were in parent/grandparent mode. Deanna was dumped by Paris and had a bad bug but still passed her first term of university. The youngest York aged up, realised they were trans, and she has renamed herself Artemisia, or Emi or Emisia to her friends and family.

2. Chopra Household, Chapter 6

Rahul worked from home all week to help with his young family. Mercedes and Savannah aged up to children and have started school. Savannah is still feeling the effects of her motor delay while Mercedes may have a speech delay but turns out to be gifted. Viola aged up into a wild toddler and the household is due another shake up as Cassandra discovered she is pregnant for the third time!

3. Romero Household, Chapter 1

Marta helped her fiance Keira learn about Dia de los Muertos as they paid respect to those in the forever save who couldn't attend the wedding. Keira began her job at the Marine Life Institute and Marta met some of her neighbours after barista shifts. Then the couple were married at Willow Creek church and honeymooned in Sulani. They are currently looking at options for having kids.

4. Pancakes Household, Chapter 9

Eliza got promoted to level 9 of the corporate career. She and Bob decided that rather than have another pregnancy they would adopt so infant Tiana joined the family. Ginger got another fur sibling as dog Strawberry joined the household. Fergus aged up to a materialistic teen and after a week of working on their grades and cheer skills Onyx finally got their horse, named Maelstrom.

5. New Goth Household, Chapter 4

Alexander and Milton retrieved Bella's old journals for Milton to begin reading, and the family celebrated Harvestfest with the Chopras. Alexander and James talked about having kids, and James admitted he would like to adopt a teen rather than having an infant. Milton went through a bear phase and Ariadne was adopted by the couple.

6. Villareal Household, Chapter 6

Joey released his first video game and became a one star celebrity. Devin filmed a pirate film and her regular TV series. Luna spent most of her time trying to patch things up between her younger brother Max and his wife. Alfred broke many dollhouses and Rilian got a kiddie pool to play in.

7. Nishidake Household, Chapter 7

It was a speedrun for this family but both Charlie and Kaori have finally reached the rock climbing skill needed to attempt to make it to the mountain summit. Clover learned to not eat trash but continued to knock the bin over for fun.

8. Woods Household, Chapter 2

The murder mystery took a backseat this time. The couple met the Moonwood Collective and Samir ranked up to a Veteran werewolf. Reece started his biology degree and hosted some meditation sessions. The pair have also discovered they are fated mates.

9. Knightstone Household, Chapter 9

It was festive season for the aliens in Chestnut Ridge. While Adam worked on his skills angling for that final promotion he managed to publish three books. Suzanna had a tough time with coworker Faye but reached a truce for the sake of their careers. She also finished a third collection, the My Sims trophy collection. Silas grew closer with fellow aliens Ruth and Tyree and showed off a Red Coral at show and tell. Pollock aged from an infant into a toddler and continued to learn.

10. Foster Household, Chapter 9

Winter ended in Sulani. Harvey managed to get promoted but didn't catch any new types of fish this time. Kayleigh sold enough paintings to become a global Superstar and was our first sim to reach the top of her career! The focus was mainly on Carson who was navigating a crush while figuring out his identity as an asexual. Clumsy flirting eventually led to him officially being Ariadne's boyfriend though.

Woah that was a lot huh? I need to rearrange my navigation for this save before rotation 11 starts but any pressing thoughts? Any bits you loved or hated? How was the new bold and colour coded dialogue? Did it make it any easier to follow when multiple people were talking? Any things you wish will or won't happen next time?

i haven't even started playing yet, but my 7 sins founder. I'm not playing by the rules, i'm gonna do story bites a la Lucky legacy.

this is Miyawaki Kirara, which is an alias. she used to be Nishidake Eri, sister to Kaori, granddaughter to Sachiko and Shigeru (from Mt. Komorebi) before all of the horrors. yes I am now writing ts4 fanfic. I'm not immune to silliness.

every now and then I get the urge to fuck up premade families via murder or homewrecking (see: all of this shit) and this is gonna be like that, except this time it's gonna be a lot of families because these premades don't know how to stop pissing me off. it'll be fun! sorry if I pick your faves tho.

Akira Kibo and Kaori Nishidake

So based on the recent segment of my story the S.I.M.S. spies. I did mention their relationship being professional to some extent. They were childhood buds. Their parents were literal best friends, and Akira liked the idea of being Kaori's protector. He loved her like a little sister. When Kaori's parents had passed away, Akira's family took her in until she was sent of to Mt. Komorebi. They had kept in touch for a while, but with Akira off to college, they barely kept in touch. It wasn't until Kaori came to San Myshuno, where she first started as an agency clerk at S.I.M.S that she was reunited with Akira, since learning about his job as an Independent Consultant at Rainy Days Ent. She knew she could take advantage of his skills as a programmer.

KAORI NISHIDAKE as snowboard doll

This was my entry for the #RDDOLLBOXCHALLENGE hosted by @rd.ptra on Instagram a while ago. Kaori is a teen living in My. Komorebi with her grandparents, after losing her own parents. Legend says their family are the sacred guardians of the mountain. Kaori loves spending her days riding down the slopes, and she has a big crush on Kiyoshi Ito - the son of her grandfathers sworn enemy. Included in the box: Kaori doll with full snowboard gear, two extra pairs of shoes, hooded jacket, baseball cap, water bottle, award ribbon and trophy, extra mini Yamachan doll and more... I had so much fun creating this, many thanks to the host for this fun and creative challenge!
