so I'm kinda too sheepish to say this out of anon, but while I LOVE the look of your story and I think all your sims a lovely genetically (I'm picky lol) I cant actually READ your story...because I cant stand the french language. I hate it. OTL (<- kneeling with hands on the ground in despair)
A message from my lawyer, Maître Simparte:
Cher anonyme,
Il m'attriste un peu que vous ne puissiez apprécier l’histoire à cause de votre haine pour la langue de Molière.
Peut-être pourriez-vous envisager de faire un petit effort, ne serait-ce que par respect pour la diversité culturelle et linguistique ? Après tout, comme on dit en France : Les imbéciles heureux qui sont nés quelque part se privent souvent des merveilles qui viennent d'ailleurs.
Avec tout mon respect, je vous invite à essayer de voir au-delà des mots et de découvrir la richesse d'une langue qui a inspiré tant de poètes, d'écrivains, et de chansonniers.
Bien à vous.
Dear Anon,
It saddens me a bit that you can't appreciate the story because of your hatred for the language of Molière.
Perhaps you could consider making a small effort, if only out of respect for cultural and linguistic diversity? After all, as we say in France: Happy fools born in one place often miss out on the wonders that come from elsewhere.
With all due respect, I invite you to try to see beyond the words and discover the richness of a language that has inspired so many poets, writers, and songwriters.
Best regards.
(I do hope you will reconsider. If by chance, you might want a post dedicated to the main phrases and words I use to make your reading experience more pleasurable, I'd be happy to speak with you in dms off anon. Sending happy reading vibes your way!)

1850: Night at the Opera (in collaboration with The Royal Thornolia Chronicles)
After my months-long Celtic spree, the time has come to briefly return to my old era of interest...
May I present to you a small 1850s set, made together with amazing Ali, the author of @theroyalthornoliachronicles! We're both so excited to finally share it with you all 💗 Make sure to check Ali's post for her half of the collaboration - practically necessary if you want your mid-Victorian gentlemen to be properly dressed for the evening!
While Ali dealt with the men, I focused - surprise surprise - on the ladies. And made two evening dresses, both inspired by the same fashion plate from ca. 1850:
If you follow Ali's story, you probably remember that a certain mademoiselle Eleanor Valery wore the dress on the right to an opera event. The dress on the left also made a short appearance, as it (or rather: its beta version) was worn by my simself Cecile, who was kindly invited to participate in the evening as well (no, that's not my real name. I just asked my husband to give me a random female French name, and that was the first thing he came up with ;)). And so both dresses are named after those characters: Eleanor and Cecile.
Both come in 29 swatches and I swear all of those colour combos come straight from mid-Victorian fashion plates - even if Ali claimed some of them remind her of 1980s Barbies ;)
polycount: ca. 17K for Eleanor (that's HIGH my friends, you have been warned. Believe me or not, it's mostly the fault of all those tiny deco flowers) and 7,5 for Cecile
Base Game compatible
HQ mod compatible (pictures taken with the mod)
Cecile uses glass shader for lace transparency = won’t work properly in laptop mode
all LODs
custom thumbnails, bump and specular maps, lots of satin shine
tagged as everyday and formal
found under long dress subcategory
colour tagged
disallowed for random
PDNs included if anyone wants to make recolours. You don’t need them for the mesh to work.
You might notice that they vary slightly in style, and that's because I put an insane amount of work into texturing Cecile, as somehow I couldn't get it to look any satisfactory with my usual methods. I love the result, but the whole process was so convoluted that I'm not even sure if I could still retrace all the steps, let alone redo Eleanor in the same style. So we're left with this small discrepancy between both dresses. Hope you don't mind!
DOWNLOAD on my Patreon (free, no ads or early access)!
And now, once again, jump over to The Royal Thornolia Chronicles for the other half of the goodies :)

Oliver: The Polytechnique ball thinks big! Napoléon V: I suggested the Garnier Opera to the school president. You've got to have a bit of fun!
Oliver: How did your honeymoon go? Napoléon V: Very well, thank you. It was strange to be cut off from the world, away from all the hustle and bustle of Paris.
Oliver: Good! You needed a rest. By the way, I thought it would please Hortense to have an estate in Francesim, so that we could visit you from time to time. Napoléon V: That's a good idea, I like knowing that my twin sister won't be too far away from us.
Oliver: Of course, don't worry, I'll look after her… That is, if you agree, officially Napoléon V: Officially, so that's it?
Oliver: Yes, I've been ready for several months now. I'm sorry again for all the trouble I've caused you, it wasn't… Napoléon V: Let's not talk about it any more. It's all settled. I know that Hortense will be happy with you, surely … more than with me.
Oliver: You were born to take different paths. At this time in your lives, the distance is natural. However, I believe I can echo Hortense's sentiments that she loves you dearly, no matter what and despite everything that has happened. Napoléon V: Thank you, Oliver. I'm counting on you to look after her.
⚜ Le Cabinet Noir | Paris, 17 Messidor An 230
Beginning ▬ Previous ▬ Next
Napoléon V and his entourage went to the Grand Bal de l'X, organised by the École Polytechnique to celebrate the end of their year of study. The ball took place at the Opéra Garnier, and featured a number of performances including dances, fencing, a choir and many other distinguished ceremonies. It's a not-to-be-missed event for young students. During the evening, Oliver approached his friend Napoléon V to officially ask for his sister Hortense's hand in marriage. The Emperor agreed to make the engagement official.
(Thanks to @theroyalthornoliachronicles and @funkyllama for the sims deco and accessories! Oliver is a character belonging to @officalroyalsofpierreland)
⚜ Traduction française
Napoléon V et ses proches se rendent au grand bal de l'X, organisé par l'école Polytechnique pour fêter la fin d'année d'étude. Le bal se déroule à l'opéra Garnier, et donne lieu à de nombreux spectacles comme des danses, des combats d'escrimes, une chorale, et bien d'autres cérémonies distinguées. C'est le rendez-vous immanquable des jeunes étudiants. Durant la soirée, Oliver approche son ami Napoléon V pour lui demander officiellement la main d'Hortense, sa soeur. L'Empereur accepte d'officialiser les fiançailles.
Oliver : Le bal de Polytechnique voit les choses en grand ! Napoléon V : J’ai proposé l’opéra Garnier au président de l’école. Il faut bien s’amuser un peu !
Oliver : Et ta lune de miel alors, ça s’est bien passé ? Napoléon V : Très bien, merci. C’était étrange d’être coupés du monde, loin de toute l’agitation parisienne.
Oliver : Tant mieux! Tu avais besoin de repos. À propos, j’ai pensé que cela ferait plaisir à Hortense d’avoir un domaine en Francesim, pour que l’on puisse vous rendre visite de temps en temps. Napoléon V : C’est une bonne idée, j’aime savoir que ma jumelle ne sera pas trop éloignée de nous.
Oliver : Bien sûr, ne t’en fais pas, je prendrai soin d’elle… Enfin, si tu y consens, officiellement Napoléon V : Officiellement, alors ça y est ?
Oliver : Oui, cela fait plusieurs mois que je suis prêt. Encore désolé pour tous les ennuis que j’ai pu t’attirer, ce n’était pas… Napoléon V : N’en parlons plus. C’est réglé. Je sais que Hortense sera heureuse avec toi, sûrement … plus qu’avec moi
Oliver : Vous êtes nés pour prendre des chemins différents. À ce moment de votre vie, la distance est naturelle, mais je crois pouvoir me faire l'écho des sentiments d'Hortense qui t'aime tendrement, quoi qu'il arrive et en dépit de tout ce qui s'est passé. Napoléon V : Merci Oliver. Je compte sur toi, pour veiller sur elle.

London, 1895
Kenneth
Emmeline has gone missing from the sanitarium's chambers, and I have been so helpfully informed that the staff is searching "as vastly as they can, under the limitations of the weather." Can they not imagine how she must feel? Bloody stupid doctors — totally inept, deceptive villains!
I have seen the boys’ curious stares, and am well-aware of the questions they are so silently but incessantly asking. I have not said a word to them; what is there that I can say?
My raging only serves to keep myself from pondering the same horrible hypotheticals as them — I feel so overwhelmed with my worries that I can hardly think at all. To leave in the midst of a winter storm, so far from home…I struggle to not envision the worst eventualities in my mind’s eye.
Yet, I must have hope. It is all I have.

🎶 Look at my King all dressed in red 🎶
When Zelda left Josephine’s apartment she had forgotten that it was Mardi Gras day. At any other point in her life, she would have been enthralled. Never before had she seen so many people in such a giddy, maddened state. Their cheers caused a constant ripple through the streets, which were full of magnificent floats reflecting the sun in their golden adornments.
But today Zelda was uninterested in the statuesque man sitting atop the float or the masked riders soliciting cheers amongst the crowd. She had only one thing on her mind, so she ran through the thronged streets without a sideways glance.
The carnival crowds were oblivious to her panicked eyes and unstyled hair. She may as well have been another wild, emboldened celebrant for whom on this ultimate and final day of revelry, the laws of society did not apply.
But she felt so perfectly, horribly foolish about the way she had acted that she knew she could never be that obliviously carefree again. She had been galivanting through this city with no regard to what lay all around her: the tangled, oppressive reality that made up the very fabric upon which all their lives stood.
Antoine was right, she didn’t understand, because she hadn’t wanted to understand. She had gone to that club night after night for over two years, never asking questions because she didn’t want to know the answers, ignoring the obvious bigotry because she didn’t want to be aware of all of the pain. She had ignored Antoine’s discomfort at those parties, caught up in being the starlet and woe to have her own fanciful view of their world ruined.
So she ran through the crowds, oblivious to the glass beads whizzing above her head and the drunken, cheering celebrates vying for them. She ran as fast as she could to get to Antoine before she lost him for good.
Part 2/4
(As an aside, y’all please send @theroyalthornoliachronicles all of y’all love! She made these decos specifically for this scene and there’s absolutely no way that I would have been able to do it without her. So everybody all together, THANK YOU ALI!❤️)

1895, Part 3
When spring came, the Samuels packed up and moved to their new house. They have a barn for animals, a much larger field to plant once the snow clears, and a larger house for their growing family.
Since they're now living nearer to the church, it's their duty to begin attending services. On their first visit as regular church-goers, Laurence was called on to speak. It went well, thankfully, but he hopes this doesn't become a regular thing. He's a farmer, not a preacher!
Virginia's a good big sister and a diligent student.
Laurence has seen Mrs. Rockwell's daughter from a distance, and is relieved that she seems to look nothing like him. She takes after her mother in all ways that he could see.
Candy didn't agree, and if Laurence didn't agree to pay up every week, she was going to tell Lydia. There was coincidentally a sudden, sharp increase in their taxes after they moved.
Andew became a child who was an Insider, Oblivious, and Active. He wanted to be a Playtime Captain.
Laurence had to take time off work to get the garden planted. In celebration, that evening, he splurged on a Love Day dinner out with Lydia.
Olivia turned into an Imaginitive, Wild toddler. Eleanor became Imaginative too, but Clingy.
I can't put any more images, so that's the end of this one.
The new lot is mostly from the Antiquated Brindleton save, except for a few things they brought with them and the fact that I could not face playing in the tiny upstairs rooms, no matter how realistic, so they got expanded a (very little) bit. It is likely to get expanded a bit more if there are any more kids, in this generation or the next. This was the goal house for them for this generation.
The church and schoolhouse are also from that save.
I don't know how long I'll keep up with church (lumpinou's rambunctious religions). I'm not a church-goer, but at the time it was expected, and I've been trying to try the mod for a while.

I Work on the Day to Wed Nes
And again I try to be clever . . . Hello and welcome--to another WIP! Life is slowly sorting itself out and, in the mean time, I've been doing my damnedest to write more of my next chapter. This week I shall knight--I mean tag @thequeenofthewinter @sneaksandsweets @theroyalthornoliachronicles and @blossom-adventures! Grace my humble eyes with your works, if you dare!
Vigdis grabbed her pack and dug through its contents. Eventually she retrieved the needle, string, salt, and cloth she sought, then tossed the bag aside. She shoved the cloth into her mouth. Buckles were unclasped and Vigdis worked with only one hand to take off her top. She bit deep into the cloth as pain throbbed her shoulder. She exhaled sharply once she was free of her armour and threw it aside.
With the cloth clenched between her teeth, she grabbed and threaded the needle. She set it down momentarily and scooped a handful of salt, which she rubbed over her wound. She sucked air in sharply. The salt was as coarse as rocks and stung like a thousand wasp stings. She snatched her needle again and, without hesitation, began to knit her skin back together.
A sigh reached her ears. Vigdis paused and glanced up to find Serana, who sat near her with a frown.
“I learned a healing spell for this reason,” she huffed.
Vigdis merely gave her a look then refocused her attention back to the stitches. She was halfway done—then stopped again when Serana’s shadow loomed over her. Her lips curled back to snarl at the vampire. Serana, however, wasn’t swayed by the warning, and instead moved closer.
“Do you want an infection?” Serana asked seriously.
The hunter, annoyed, spat out the cloth so that it dropped into her lap.
“I’ve done this a million times,” Vigdis growled, exasperated with the vampire’s accusation. “It won’t—”
“You think I didn’t notice it to begin with? I’m not blind—you left it untreated for hours!”
A tense silence settled over them, their stares as sharp as daggers. It seemed that they were at an impasse. Vigdis didn’t know how long they glared at each other for. Minutes? Hours, perhaps? But the ache in her shoulder worsened. Exhaustion weaved into her muscles and bones. She couldn’t keep this up anymore.
She looked away.

2, 9, 25, 42! for the ask game! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the ask! 💃🌸
Do you drink tea or coffee? How do you take it? Coffee (café au lait) in the morning, tea all day (no sugar, no milk).
When is your birthday? I'm a natural born Leo!
What’s your favorite decade? I would say 1930. I love the Agatha Christie/Miss Marple atmosphere, I even tried to transfer it to my sims game! I would probably adore any other British novel/film/series set in this style, regardless of the story itself, that’s how much I love it.
Tag 5 of your favorite blogs I refuse!!! I can't possibly choose only five! Well, with the knife on my throat:
I love(d) the Langston Legacy by @pixelnrd like we probably all did. She is now on a lovely, long hiatus 💕, so the story probably ends where it is now. Thanks for all the joy and beautiful moments!
At the moment I’m (re-)reading @theroyalthornoliachronicles story and also follow @taanoir and @sims-half-crazy legacies. Then, when I’m up to date on those, @aheathen-conceivably is next, and that is something I look forward to! It looks smashing!
After that I have a long list of interesting posts I’ve seen briefly on tumblr and want to check out.The sad thing is I really don’t have much more capacity and time for reading! But maybe one day ...
And now I didn’t mention my favorite cc and mod blogs ....

That's a big ask.
The formal deco sims are waiting for their turn to get done.
The dancers may have been done or I've seen other formal dancers somewhere.
I do like the orchestra but it will be at the end of my list. It may be quite sometime before you see any of these deco sims since my project folders are backed-up to the hilt.

Sometimes people really fucking make me angry especially when good people get impacted and one of those is a great friend and fellow simmer, @theroyalthornoliachronicles mother. Ali’s mom is unfortunately getting evicted from her home and without much of a prior notice, she has to try and find a new place to live and with little finances which is why I’m asking if anyone can donate any money even if it’s a small amount but if you can’t because of your own financial circumstances. Don’t worry but also share the link around so we can help Ali’s mom out and in term take some of the stress off Ali and her siblings.
Here is the Link: https://gofund.me/31a27a80

screaming! I am so ready for the update tomorrow!
I am in the front row, camping out with my popcorn
That means so much to me, thank you!
I've basically hidden myself away to work on this, so I'm happy to finally start seeing it take off! This chapter is not NEARLY as long as chapter one, but it's gonna be good, I can promise you that! <3

DOWN WITH DYLAN. I do not trust him as far as I can throw him, and even that’s pushing it. His family has ties to Burgandy, and Sebastian is a MUCH better fit for Victoria. If she doesn’t wake up and realise that she’s only going through the motions and doing what people expect, she’ll end up married and trapped to a man she doesn’t love. She clearly loves Sebastian, but because she believes she must go through with a decision she’s made for herself she’s denying herself happiness. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: DOWN WITH DYLAN. She better be a runaway bride because I swear to all that is holy I will throw hands (Love you and your fabulous story....just...stop making me grumpy please ❤️).
yep, you weren’t kidding when you said you were going public with your Dylan hate 😂 Love you and they’ll be just fiiine, don’t worry about it
maybe i’m gonna pick her wedding dress today ✌😙

List 3 of your favorite sims from other simmers you enjoy and explain why (Send this to 10 other blogs 💖💖)
Thank you very much Anon for this ask! It's not easy, so I hope my answers will be satisfactory to the authors!
Oliver de Thornolie from @theroyalthornoliachronicles
Oliver is a royal character with a lot of qualities (in every sense of the word), but who goes through some difficult episodes. It's interesting to see how we "become king", it's a theme I really like in our royal simblr milieu, and Thornolia brings it out well.
Ryland from @trentonsimblr
I've liked the character of Ryland since his first appearances. He's far from perfect, representing more or less everything you could criticise in a man of his social class (not surprising given the family he comes from). Despite this, he has made a lot of effort and is still fighting against himself, which is interesting and is the kind of character we don't see enough of in royal simblr families.
Empress Katalina from @officalroyalsofpierreland
A bit like Oliver de Thornolie, it's interesting to see how you become part of a royal family, and Katalina's character shows that. She even becomes a fundamental pillar, and I don't think her husband would have such a solid reign without her. The consorts have a huge influence on the monarchs, and it's particularly visible here!
There are lots of other interesting characters, of course! I was going to show more, but I haven't got the time in the end, so I'll stick to the rules 😗

Temperance and The Hanged Man! <3
temperance: can you describe a strange dream you’ve had?
The weirdest dreams I can remember were when I was first prescribed mirtazapine years ago. I had a dream that I was in a chalet with a bunch of interconnected rooms that had swimming pools and water features in them. When I first started my way through the dream, these rooms were full of people speaking German (????), but the longer the dream went on, the people started turning into dogs and then there was a big musical number with poodles on swings and schnauzers doing synchronized swimming. To this day I have NO earthly idea what that was about. 🥴
the hanged man: favourite movie soundtrack?
I eat up movie soundtracks, but the TWO that I probably enjoy the most as whole albums are the ‘Moulin Rouge’ and ‘O Brother Where Art Thou?’ OSTs! Both amazing, vibrant, camp movies with incredible soundtracks.

Hi Alexis! I was just wondering if you could recommend other amazing historical simblrs? <3
Hello, Nonny! Thank you so much for asking me! But my, my, my, this is a difficult one! There’s so many lovely historical storytellers here both past and present as well as all of the CC creators, lookbook makers, mod geniuses, builders, challenge creators, and just general vibe makers, each of whom make this little historical simming community amazing.
So to make this question a little easier on myself, I’m going to limit my answer to historical simmers who are still either actively or semi-regularly posting gameplay/stories here. It is inevitable that I will forget some people so please, please tag ourself in the comments so that Nonny and everyone else can go check out your historical pixels as well!
So in no particular order, historical story tellers that I see on my dash and who’s content I love: @heartblobs @greatbritishsimchallenge @cattermelons @history-of-sims @historysims4 @lovecidik @wylankinnie @sims-half-crazy @paperdolls-and-pixels @kyriat-stories @ottersinhats @stargazingsims @simblrangel @theroyalthornoliachronicles @somanysimdays @scythesms @sister-magnolia @cassimopeia @shelbycompanylimitedd @come-hell-or-high-water @taanoir @alainas-sims @sasaofastora @historicalfictionsims @plumbobpuddingmodel @icedwatersupremacy @blu-sims @sinclairesimblr (who’s on hiatus but who’s story is amazing) @antiquatedplumbobs (another simmer on Haitus who I’m hoping returns soon 😉) and of course @pixelnrd (who’s story is on indefinite hiatus, but well worth reading from the start)
Whew. That was quite the list, but still I know that I forgot some people so please don’t be shy about leaving your name in the comments for us! 💖
