#I still think the toddler stage was the worst
Note
yeah tell us about sean the ugly baby
okay so,
back in february I got bored and wanted to draw a character of mine from an rp group, but I didn't have any ideas. So I simply put him into the sims and drew what happened and posted it to the group. I chose Sims 2 for the variety, and went in. Making a 2000's version of my oc, Frankie, to do silly things for me to draw and my friends to giggle at:
And it was silly and fun! But during this, he ended up getting abducted by aliens, which was absolutely hilarious at the time.
However, in the sims series, there's an odd little thing that happens. Male sims that were abducted by aliens have a chance to come back pregnant. Well in the Sims 2: male sims were guaranteed to come back pregnant, only in later expansions did they introduce the possibility of it not happening.
So he got pregnant. whatever, just a bunch of mpreg jokes. Right? Well it turns out there's a small chance that Alien babies end up with their human parent's eyes! Which wouldn't be so bad with the base eyes, but I happen to use custom content.
So I was expecting this:
and I got this:
which was SO HORRIFYING and not what I was expecting. It took all my willpower to not name this baby something mean like "Beebo the Ugly child". So I named him Sean. Because that was the first non-mean name I could think of.
Of course, my character loved and cared for him. After all, he was a kind person who would love his mpreg baby no matter how ugly he was.
I however, did not.
I hoped that he might just be an ugly baby, and that he'll grow out of it as he gets older.
He did not.
he got UGLIER.
This horrifying Benjamin Button ass space creation haunted my home for 4 sim days. We prayed once again, that he was simply an ugly duckling. That he was simply going to grow into more age-appropriate features.
Sean once again, disappointed me.
It was torture having to care for a sim I hated so much, but couldn't be cruel to because it was simply out of character for my ocs to hate him. Sean got treated with the utmost kindness. He got everything a child could hope for.
Didn't stop me from making jokes though.
#simon says#ask#sims 2#art#my art#ocs#I hope you guys find this as funny as I do#I worry that the rp lore and context is too heavily intertwined with this but also I think Sean's ugliness is universal#And my hatred for this child knows no bounds#I still think the toddler stage was the worst#he fucking looked like spock but specifically the old man version and specifically if spock had shrek for a father#I don't plan on playing the household anymore but if I ever did I would absolutely keep giving Sean a good life despite how I hate him#he deserves a good life and it is my duty to give it to him despite the fact that he keeps giving me the blue eyed stare

Do you think that the devs/writers are going to be leaning more into the “Vincent is the father” theory? The way how he talks about Sephiroth in rebirth is very peculiar and also how an ashamed father would talk. Personally I hope not for many reasons.
Also when Vincent claims that he had many opportunities to purge Sephiroth from the world but he couldn’t pull the trigger, that implies that he died after Sephiroth was born and not before. Of course this could be to do with the fact that he simply doesn’t want to kill a child and or the son of his love, but it’s still weird non the less.
Unless they choose to retcon already established lore, they will not go that route. It adds nothing to Vincent's character, as much as some people want to make it seem it would and here's why.
Vincent being the father and him just sitting back and letting things happen would make him to be worse than Lucrecia and Hojo, turning him into a coward and a complete asshole. This would also vindicate Hojo completely and make Vincent to be the worse villain, not Hojo. People always like to point to their looks but Tifa and Elena use the same model with some tweeking, and no one says they're related. Or how Naio clearly has Tifa's model as well. Whether people like to admit it or not, these are anime designs, they do shortcut their work, and models get reused all the time. However, the one reason why they may have made the decision to have them both look similar may be due to the fact that originally, Sephiroth and Vincent were originally one and the same person. The main villain had white hair, a tall standing collar, and a headband. Either people are not aware of these things or they are stretching a concept that doesn't have any true solid foundation.
Aside from that, Vincent's connection to Sephiroth had always been weak, and there was little motivation for him to pursue Sephiroth in OG. His focus was always Hojo, and his penance was always too extreme in the eyes of fans. He was this sad little man that was just all woe-is-me for a sin that didn't justify his punishment. Lucrecia was always the one pointed at as the least forgivable. And rightly so. At the time, Vincent's only sin was following orders as a Turk and not overstepping his bounds to prevent the experiment. But that was hardly a reason for him to bainish himself to eternal nightmares. Until Rebirth.
Vincent's connection to Sephiroth finally holds more weight in that Vincent idly stood by while innocent lives were being cut off by Sephiroth. He likely knew enough about the nature of the experiment and that the purpose was to create a dangerous being, and then for years on end, still chose to passively allow Sephiroth create carnage. This alone makes Vincent an accomplice of Shinra's evils. While it isn't clearly stated in DoC, the Ultimania mentions that Sephiroth was already a toddler by the time Vincent decided to approach Hojo. So if that still remains canon, Vincent likely saw Sephiroth's early stages of cruelty as a child.
All of this adds plenty of reasons for Vincent to have a strong feeling towards taking Sephiroth down, yet still hesitating because he is the son of Lucrecia. Him being the father doesn't add anything important to him. As a matter of fact, it hinders his character. One of the many reasons why Vincent is so loved is due to his unselfish personality.
In OG, Vincent harbored doubts about Hojo, but his hatred wasn't that deep yet. In the Ultimania, Vincent counted Hojo's experiments on him justified, therefore putting himself lower than Hojo. It wasn't until Vincent learned the truth about Hojo that he suddenly became enraged, and all anger he had towards himself was immediately directed at Hojo. And yet in spite of it all, even after taking Hojo down, Vincent says "rest in peace, Hojo". What person says that to their most hated enemy...? This scene depicted that even towards his worst enemy, he was still gracious. To force in the idea that he is Sephiroth's father would override all of that, and would make Vincent no better than Lucrecia or Hojo, and 'killing his own son' would never redeem him of that. Sparing the life of your worst enemy's child holds more impact than killing your kid (which is also extremely unoriginal and tropey).
Can they play with the idea of him being the father? Absolutely. Will they actually make him the dad? No, unless they want to completely undo what Vincent is. And and far as we've seen, if there's one thing they have been very loyal to and careful about, it's the characters. They build upon what they already are, and do not change what is already established canon. And in Vincent's case, his guilt was something that needed further weight. And that weight is that he was complacent with what both Shinra AND Sephiroth had committed, many times over.
I also go into detail about the depth of Vincent's guilt in this post. https://www.tumblr.com/phantomyre/745158867895418881/rebirth-vincent-analysisbreakdown-1-vincents?source=share
In short, I believe Vincent was aware of Sephiroth murdering the townspeople of Nibelheim, and due to what he says in Rebirth, he was also privy to the suriviors ending up as test subjects. And by way of association, Zack and Cloud as well. This is how they're going to give reason to Vincent's pursuit of Sephiroth. Not being the father.

no outbreak au baby girl headcanons n thoughts!!
baby girl would absolutely take up sports after watching games of sarah being amazing and ruthless in soccer <3
despite being a no outbreak au i absolutely adore fics that have ellie as still joels daughter 🥹 so joel just being an absolute girl dad to three kids ... he doesn't drink caffeine, he IS the caffeine with all the energy he needs to be able to deal with 2 teenage kids and 1 toddler
ellie, sarah, and baby girl having girl nights and its just them having fun, eating junk food, and staying up late
i like to think sarah and ellie would share a room and baby girl is like... jealous because she calls it the 'big girl' room so she just vents to her stuffed animals that she wants to be big so she can share a room with ellie and sarah 😭
baby girl definitely picks up music!!
miller family beach day ft. uncle tommy and maria :)) sarah wants to play beach volleyball, ellie is begging joel for ice cream, baby girl wants to build sand castles and all three adults are given one kid assigned to care for
i absolutely ADORE your baby girl works
baby girl would absolutely take up sports after watching games of Sarah being amazing and ruthless in soccer
Oh, for sure. Joel always takes baby girl to Sarah's soccer games and you can bet that they're cheering the loudest for her. When she gets old enough, Joel puts her into those little kid soccer classes where their games aren't scored because hey, it's all about the participation, right? Sarah definitely plays soccer out in the backyard with her to get her some practice so she can show off at her baby classes (and let's just pretend that Sarah 100% doesn't let her win)
despite being a no outbreak au i absolutely adore fics that have ellie as still joels daughter 🥹 so joel just being an absolute girl dad to three kids ... he doesn't drink caffeine, he IS the caffeine with all the energy he needs to be able to deal with 2 teenage kids and 1 toddler
Joel definitely regrets being such a stallion now, Sarah being 14, Ellie being only a year behind her at 13, but baby girl being 3 at least gave him a bit of a gap. But, and a very big but, being a single dad to 3 girls? The man is smacked out his face on caffeine at every single point in the day, and the worst part? It's nothing to do with baby girl. Sarah and Ellie being at that stage with you know, periods and shit, poor Joel goes through it because baby girl's big sisters aren't gonna take their teenage hormonal rage out on their sweet baby sister.
Ellie, Sarah, and baby girl having girl nights, and its just them having fun, eating junk food and staying up late
As much as leaving baby girl alone on girls' nights fills Joel's heart with genuine fear and anxiety, he knows he needs to get out himself, so reluctantly leaves Sarah in charge. Baby girl feels like such a big girl when she gets to stay up past her bedtime and have a soda, it's not that Joel doesn't let her do those things, he just likes to let her have them as a treat. But she loves getting to stay up with her big sisters and hearing all their school gossip, even if she doesn't really understand what they're talking about.
I like to think Sarah and Ellie would share a room and baby girl is... jealous because she calls it the 'big girl' room so she just vents to the stuffed animals that she wants to be big so she can share a room with Ellie and Sarah 😭
There have been so many occasions where Joel's gone to the bathroom and heard baby girl fully ranting to the row of stuffed toys she has lined up on her bed. He's so confused because she always says she likes having her own room but now she apparently doesn't? Then he hears her mention Sarah and Ellie get to share a room and he realizes that she maybe feels a bit left out because the girls like to watch movies together sometimes. So he goes and asks the girls if they'd mind if baby girl came and slept in their room with them tonight, obviously, they don't mind, so baby girl is so happy she gets to spend time with her sisters.
baby girl definitely picks up music!!
Because she mostly spends her time with her dad, that also means she's around Joel when he decides to pick up the guitar for a while, and baby girl just watches him so intently, watching her dad's hands pluck at the strings. So Joel, noticing her fascination with the guitar, gets her one of those kids ones for her birthday and teaches her how to play a couple notes and slowly an easy song.
miller family beach day ft. uncle Tommy and maria :)) Sarah wants to play beach volleyball, Ellie is begging Joel for ice cream, baby girl wants to build sand castles and all three adults are given one kid assigned to care for.
Joel assigns himself to Ellie, Tommy to Sarah, and Maria to baby girl, since her choice of activity was the least exercise. Joel comes back from the store with a bucket and spades for her, Ellie is happy enough to sit with her ice cream and then go into the water with Joel for a while, baby girl being perfectly content to sit with Maria, who was sunbathing, and build her sandcastles.

Hi! I love Tim and I love all your itty bitty Tim stories. Thank you for all these really cool ideas you have.
I love the idea of Tim having litters of babies with Bruce. The Batboys are already very distant from their dad because of Bruce's parenting faux pas and absolutely disgusted with Bruce having it on with the neighbour's kid, and having actual babies with him. But the kids are so cute and they slowly start to visit the Manor more often. They watch tiny Tim taking care of the babies and they kind of wish that Tim had been there to take care of them the same way. They slowly mend their relationship with Bruce.Then, they see Tim breastfeeding his kids and they fall in awww with him. Then they see Bruce also breastfeeding from Tim too and think, wait a minute, could we do that??? And they do. And that leads to more litters and other things.
thank you so much!!!! i'm so happy that others enjoy them as well and i'm so happy that so many people send me asks with their incredible thoughts and prompts!!! i hope they continue to do so!!!
tim having lots of little babies with bruce is one of my all time favorites 🥺🥺🥺🥺 i especially love omega and hybrid tim having lots of cute little litters!!!! in a civilian au where tim never became a bat and joined the family there would be a lot of consequences- most notably that the family wouldn't be as close because much of the driving force behind the reconciliation between bruce, dick, barbara as well as bruce opening up to work with others was because of tim. in a world where tim doesn't come into bruce's life until he's already estranged from his other kids well then that opens up the very unique situation where bruce is incredibly lonely and deprived of affection but not able to recognize it.
hybrids are naturally incredibly affectionate, even to complete strangers they'll run up to them and hug and kiss them as well as rub against them in hopes of praise or perhaps even candy if they're young. so when bruce finds himself gaining the affection of a curious little hybrid chasing butterflies in the garden and finds out they're the sweet neighbor boy who moved next door with his wheelchair-bound father, he grows addicted to it.
tim is all lithe and small and fits perfectly in bruce's arms, he loves standing on his tip toes to kiss at bruce's cheeks and he likes holding bruce's hand and flopping it on his head for bruce to stroke between his ears. tim is innocent and sweet and freely gives bruce the attention and affection he hadn't realized he was desperate for. bruce, as an adult, is used to different forms of affection aside from cuddling or kissing and the build up of having tim there is just too much to ignore.
of course it ends with him getting tim pregnant. his little baby womb swells up with a litter.
bruce's children are estranged but they still visit him occasionally and they find out bruce has been getting it on with the little neighbor boy. they figure it out quickly when they see that tim's little tummy is curved with a sweet bump that can only mean he's expecting a litter and bruce is the only man aside from tim's dad for miles...
they don't take it well. of course they don't. dick is disgusted, jason is furious once he learns tim's age, and damian is deeply unhappy because one of damian's most recent charity endeavors were for the exploitation of hybrids.
they think the worst of bruce, of course they do because bruce has never given them rhyme or reason to think otherwise.
they distance themselves even more from bruce if possible.
tim gives birth to his litter in the laundry room of the manor and bruce marvels over the tiny babes. he knows that hybrids are born tinier than normal but they they'll progress to the toddler stage in a matter of months before reaching the same rate as normal human development.
jack drake can barely care for tim let alone an entire litter of grandbabies, not when he's still progressing in his healing. so jack drake gives them his blessing and bruce, without much ceremony or formality, marries his little hybrid that has become the mother of his children.
the first time his other kids see bruce's children is in a magazine spread that bruce did as a result of public interest of his marriage.
the visits start slow and hesitant. its very clear initially that the visits are only to see how tim and all the babies are doing but bruce sees as their concern shifts to curiosity to interest. tim is a natural mother and is always carrying around, playing, or nursing one of his and bruce's little babies.
initially tense or hostile conversations turn quieter and more tolerant when the babies cry at the harsh tones bruce's sons use when speaking to him. eventually that forced calmness turns real because its easy for them to forget how much they hate and disapprove of bruce while they're playing with several cute little babies.
eventually all of them are able to be in a room with any hard feelings and bruce notices as his son's eyes linger on tim's puffy little mama tits when he unclips the front of his nursing bra to free a tit for a hungry little baby that hastily latches on and begins desperately drinking down milk like they think their mama's milk will be stolen from them.
which it won't because bruce is always careful not to steal too much food out of his babie's mouthes. but sometimes tim just has his tits out, changing out babies every few minutes so they each get their fill and the first time it had happened bruce had gotten...curious.
now he just takes a few sips once tim is done feeding their baby. tim's small hand will curl around the back of bruce's neck, fingers playing with little bits of hair and murmuring encouragement as bruce lets out a satisfied sigh and gently suckles milk out of tim's tit like he's one of tim's babies.
bruce can see the barely restrained interest in his son's faces when they see tim disrobe and reveal a pair of plush milky tits. bruce hears their breath hitch when bruce descends down on them once his children have had their fill.
he knows that they ache for connection just like he did and he knows that they've been drawn in by tim's image as a mother to many sweet babies. bruce knows its hard to resist. afterall the heart wants what it wants.

Alright so pulling this right out of my ass but spider as a child or a toddler spider knowing him he would ran in a room that's off limits but he stole one of the scientist card running from recom and from quaritch in there base since spider is a 16 year old so he is a little trouble maker when spider is running he ran right beside a scientist grabbing there card running in the lab swaps the card running in locking it spider this poor boy the old theme we all know and somewhat love curiosity killed the cat he sees a bottle of blueish with white in it so he grab it and drink it when he put it down he heard the door open in the lab Finley hearing quaritch cussing up a storm walking inside with Lyle spider immediately hide under a table keeping him unseen until he slowly close his eyes the darkness he falling as he thought no he was turned into a toddler quaritch on the right still cussing without a filter Lyle looking around calling for spider until he felt something touch his leg he looked down to see a toddler he and for some reason I can imagine spider calling Lyle like "papa" because he sees Lyle first he would pick up the little spider and walked to miles telling him how he or how spider find him and spider god bless his tiny little soul he calls miles "Dada" what would they do with a toddler spider what if it can't be fix?
Recoms Raising Spider Headcanons
AHHHHHH 🥰🥰🥰 I love this
A/N: Ok just for plot convince let’s say the effects of the mysterious potion only last 16 days. 1 day=1 year so it takes about 2 weeks for spider to get back to normal. Also we’re just gonna pretend that it reset his hair so no dreads(It still gets long as hell tho)
774 Words
Warnings: fluff, Cussing
@hyperfixatedfandomer @naavispider
Look at his instincts finding his dad’s 😭. It’s like that one episode in spongebob where him and Patrick have the baby clam (Lyle is the mom✨)
Quaritchs emotions are through the roof😭
1.he’s pissed spider ran off in the first place and on top of that causing more problems by turning into a toddler
2.he’s stressed ASF. Demanding everygod damn scientist in that lab to tell him what’s going on and to fix his boy(they were testing the shit that comes from the tulkans)
3.He’s also kinda emotional tho because he didn’t get to see spider grow up into a teenager and now he has that opportunity.
I like to think spider looked ALOT like quaritch when he was little but as he got older started to look like Paz.
TODDLER STAGE(1-3)
The worst stage
None of the recoms sleep during these days
Spiders sleep schedule is so fucked up from living in the lab
He’s one of those nocturnal toddlers
Sleeps all throughout the day and is up all night
He’s a fast little fucker
Quaritch now understands how he got the name spider
He’ll will look away for one minute and all of the sudden spiders on top of a 8ft recom dresser
They obviously don’t have toddler clothes so he’s just wearing the smallest adult shirt they could find and it’s still huge
I can see them gushing over his curls
He definitely got those from paz
Spiders a bad ass toddler, I’m talking getting in stuff he’s not supposed to, biting, hitting, kicking, spitting, running
At one point Lyle says fuck it and makes a child leash
Despite being a literal demon he’s really clingy
Attached to Lyle and quaritch at the hip
Like quaritch had to go a patrol outside so he left spider with the medbay folks, it broke his heart when he shut the door and heard spiders little feet running to the door crying for dada to come back
He almost called the whole mission off
He definitely holds the recoms tails when following the around
EARLY CHILDHOOD STAGE(4-5)
Probably the easiest stage the recoms had to deal with
I mean spider was still a hell spawn but he was more reserved
The recoms were so drained from toddler spider they just shoved a tablet in his face
It worked though
Still really clingy (and quaritch loves it)
Still looks a lot like a mini quaritch
Not as active as they’re used to him being
MID CHILDHOOD STAGE(6-9)
This I were his ADHD Shines
Quaritch has never seen a kid this hyperactive in both his lifetimes
Like they look up and this boy is 50ft in the air using the pipes on the ceiling as monkey bars
Quaritch nearly dies from many heart attacks during this stage
Spiders finally big enough to fit into the exopacks and go with the recoms on patrol
Y’all remember Trazan 2 where Tazan is a kid yea that’s just spider
Lyle also teachs him to shoot (yk with the guns he can lift)
Spider has absolutely no patience
Annoys the hell out of EVERYONE, nobody’s safe
The tablet technique doesn’t work in this stage because his attention span is to small to focus
Quaritch notices he’s starting to look and act like Paz more
Like spiders hair is starting to get darker and his mother’s attitude is starting to show
PRE-TEEN STAGE(10-12)
Speaking of attitude it gets 10x worse in this stage
The second worst stage
This is the stage quaritch has been dreading since the toddler stage
He’s starting to turn into the spider they kno and love
His hair has now reached his shoulders
Z-dog starts putting Viking braids in his hair
He gets really attached to Z-dog in this stage
They’re the bitchy attitude duo
Literally doesn’t want to cooperate with anyone
Him and quaritch are at each other’s throats
Spiders always hungry and eats ungodly amounts of food
I mean he’s a growing boy
His Navi instincts are coming back to him
Like he disappears for like 15 minutes, all the recoms are panicking, and then spider shows up covered in war paint and mud with like 6 fish on his homemade spear
TEEN STAGE (13-16)
Finally
Spiders basically back
When that last day come he barley remembers anything that happened
It’s all like a blur to him
He wakes up pissed on that last day storms into recom meeting “WTF HAPPENED TO MY HAIR!” Cuz yk his dreads are gone
He honestly doesn’t remember most of it but loves listening to the recoms talk about the past 2 weeks

More rockstar!eddie because everyone seems to really like it :)
Hopefully these will hold you guys over until I cant start writing a rockstar!eddie fic :)
He tires to act so hard and tough in front of everyone but the truth is
He’s an absolute baby, your honor
But only for his wife
He just loves her so much he gets all mushy and soft the second he spots her
Kisses every five seconds
Those loud kisses where he cradles his wife’s face with both hands and presses loud smooches
Constantly laying his head in her chest, letting her rub his back and pull him in close
He even sits on her lap when he wants to be babied, plopping on her thighs and wrapping himself around her like he’s a toddler
Constantly cuddling, there is not a second they aren’t wrapped around each other
Eddie definitely asks if she will hold him while he pees… he would rather his wife do it than him
And when the crowd sees lipstick prints all over Eddie’s face and lips when he walks out on stage they instantly think him and his wife were fooling around but really he asked for her to put a bunch of kisses on his face so he can have a little piece of her while he preforming and he can’t be next to her <3
If she for some reason can’t come to a show or a leg of tour he takes a pair of her panties with him and since he usually has her support from the side of the stage he instead shoves her lace panties in the back of his pocket instead of his bandana so he can carry her with him
Don’t know how I haven’t mentioned this
Eddie loves leaving marks
Hickeys, bite marks, whatever, he loves it
He likes sees his wife’s chest, thighs, neck, marked up all from him
And she can’t cover them up no matter how long she sits infront of her vanity and dusts power over it or basically does a whole face of make up just on her neck, she can’t seem to cover them
So she’s forced to go out with her neck, or chest, and thighs covered in marks
Eddie gets a very concerned phone call from y/n’s parents after that
And when he can’t bring y/n on tour with him he calls every five seconds “I miss you. I really miss you :( touring just isn’t the same. I feel like I’m missing my good luck charm. You’re the only one who make me feel like I’ve got some stability during these crazy tours”
And when he finally gets home he’s so excited, running and jumping to find her and then wrapping his arms around her like he hasn’t seen her in years
Shoving his face in her neck, giving her the longest, tightest hug ever and once he pulls away he looks her up and down to make sure she hasn’t changed a bit “your haven’t changed on me, have you? You’re still my wife, right?”
“Well I didn’t sign any divorce papers recently”
“Not funny!”
He soaks up the time he’s not on your as much as possible
Because yes, he’s not always on tour but and when he is his wife is with him 99.9% of the time
But they don’t have much time to actually be ~together~, and I’m not talking having sex because they will do that anywhere and everywhere
I’m talking cuddling, having 3am talks, running out to the nearest convenient shop at 3am when one of them mentions wanting candy, checking in on each other, getting to feel like an actual married couple
So when he is home with his wife, both of them with messy hair and the same pajamas they keep rewearing, cuddling on the couch and staring a thing of raw cookies dough
Well, that’s the moments he loves the most
That’s why he married his wife
Not so he could have a hot wife to cheer him on at his huge metal concerts (that’s just a bonus that he absolutely loves), it’s so he could spend every morning waking up to her, seeing her with messy hair, puffy eyes, pajamas that are falling off of her, being with her during the best times and the worst times
Because let’s be honest, as obsessed as they are with each other, there are still bad times
Every couple fights so of course they have their fights too
Most of the time they don’t fight, just stupid bickering
But if they do get in a fight it’s a rough one
Because it only happens once a year? Once every six months?
And it’s usually when one of them (or both) are super stressed out already
And if they get slightly annoyed they explode on each other
And let’s me honest, usually it’s Eddie because he doesn’t exactly have the best temper
But usually he is easily annoyed, not easily angry
But when he’s stressed he’s a ticking time bomb
And after all is said and done and his wife is sniffling on the couch next to him he feels terrible
Once the emotions are set in and he realizes that all he really needed to do was get his stress out, and he could have done that on anything but his wife
He didn’t need to raise his voice at her or say things he never meant to say
He could have just ran off to play his guitar
“Do you want me to leave?”
Y/n of course shakes her head no while she wipes her tears and waits for him to sit next to her
He takes the tissue from her and wipes her tears before he pulls her to sit in his lap
“Do you want me to give you the full explanation or save that for later and apologize now?”
“Save it for later” she says while whimpering, closing her eyes while he blots her cheeks dry
“I’m sorry. And I didn’t meant to say anything to hurt you, or say anything that made you think differently about yourself or our relationship. I love you no matter what. I really am sorry. You can kick my ass or hire someone to kick my ass. I know I’m stupid, sweetheart.”
And he gives her a couple minutes before she finally accepts his apology, saying he can make up for it if he takes her up to their room and turns on a film for them to watch as long as they don’t fight anymore and can agree to not bring it up
But if it’s y/n who starts the fight
Well, Eddie can’t act right when his wife is yelling at him, even for the smallest thing
So he sits down and waits for it to be over with an amused grin on his face and waits for her to let out her last sigh before she looks at him
“Come kiss me already, I know you’re just stressed. You definitely didn’t mean it when you said I’m a stupid prick, now did you?”
And of course she does what he says and apologizes because she was overreacting
“Well, I’m really hurt. You shouldn’t of called me a stupid prick because now all of my confidence is washed away. I guess you can make it up to me by riding me?”
And she stands up and grabs his hand, leading him to their bedroom where they spend the rest of the night
Going from fucking, to sharing a joint, fucking, napping, fucking, Eddie running out to the balcony for a cigarette break, Eddie running downstairs for a snack break, fucking, taking a shower, fucking in the shower, then going to bed with the sheets almost completely off of the bed
Okay that’s all the thoughts I have
Lmk your thoughts
:)

I think you’ve already answered something similar, but hear me out-
a science lab trying to simulate pregnancy with dudes, right? Like babies growing and stuff, it’s literally just mpreg being made lol
so they’re still developing it right? So what if they’ve got different parts done and others not, like how fast the baby grows and how long it is, etc. so you could make some interesting combinations- like what if they got the nine months now but the baby grew too fast? >:)
Aaa yess, so many things can go wrong while it’s still in its development stage, the speed of growth and the amount of embryos that take are hard to control at first. The poor test subjects that have to be the first to carry get the worst of the defects, some ending up with a rapid pregnancy, growing so massive so quickly his skin can barely keep up, others having too many inside them, anywhere from 5 to 10 babies at a time. Some even have to suffer through pregnancies that last a year or more, having a toddler sized baby inside him that kicks and punches so hard it bruises his tummy and breaks his ribs

thank you so much for an amazing Bojere week! This was so much fun 🥰 And I want to hear your answer to the bonus prompt too: Why do you love Bojere? 💕
Ooouuu thank you for being part of it!! I hope this week provided joy and solace for others like it did for me.
To be candid for a second, I’ve mentioned having a cough all week, and it’s honestly been the worst cough of my life. I wake up 3-5 times a night so I’m exhausted. I have coughing fits out of nowhere. My throat keeps feeling like something is tickling it. It’s been honestly really disheartening a week before my wedding and I’m nervous about if I’ll still have it next week.
But! It is slowly getting better, I can tell, and BoJere week has been a really great distraction for that. So, thank you again to everybody for providing me with comfort in a way during this 😭
As for BoJere… I’m someone who loves when people are really earnest, and I think Bojan and Jere are both people who exemplify that. Their story alone about how they met and became friends is really something special, but what maintains that for me past the doors of ESC last year, is their obvious connection. And I say all this keeping in mind that, truly, I see them as just really good friends.
But that spark alone, seeing two people connect so seamlessly and in such a dynamic, honest way, just really lit something in me? Their love is so abundant for one another and I’m the sort of person who gets sappy seeing people happy and showing love— not even just romantically. A group of friends running down the street past me laughing, a grandchild and their grandparent out shopping, parents tending to their toddler.
And, idk? BoJere exemplifies that “loving connection for others” for me. It’s just such a strong example of two adoring people and the apparent bond they have that can transcend the cameras and stage, and it translates so easily into different stories (which is why I like AUs a lot with them).
So while I understand we may see less of them now post-ESC, and entirely respect that because their privacy is important, I’m so grateful we got to see so many glimpses of their friendship develop in real-time last year :)
They’ve reignited a lot of creativity for me the last year, and I’ve met SO many wonderful people, to which I’m eternally grateful for.

More parent Dip headcanons! A lil’ angsty this time, but rewarding in the end☺️
(Inspired by @i-enjoy-south-park-milfs69 newest fic which you can read here!)
-Pip has a habit of comforting their baby anytime he starts crying, & the baby quickly learns that crying=dad’s attention. Damien tells him to stop before the problem gets worse, but Pip won’t hear any of it, not wanting to listen to his poor baby cry.
-The reason Pip does this is because he doesn’t want his child to suffer like he did. When Pip was a baby (& a little bit as a toddler, to the point when he stared remembering things), he was under the care of his older sister. Because she hated his existence, she would just let him cry his little lungs out, even when he actually needed something. (& she wouldn’t let Joe comfort him either, as she was dominant over him & what she said goes.) Little Pip would sometimes cry to the point where he’d make himself sick. If he let his son do the same thing, he’d feel infinitely guilty about it.
-After talking to Damien about this, giving him a reason why he comforts their son, the demon softens, but still thinks that Pip needs to nip this behavior in the bud before it becomes too much for them to handle. Very reluctantly, Pip agrees, knowing it’s what’s best for their child, & wanting nothing but that for him.
-The following night, Pip tried his best to stay in bed, curled up against his husband & staying put, even when he hears his baby start crying from his bedroom. (I’m thinking of that one super nanny episode where a mother had to do this) Eventually though, Pip would sit out in the hallway, still in the baby’s view from his crib, but wouldn’t look in the child’s direction, not acknowledging him at all as he wails.
-After just having his back to the baby, Pip turns slightly to sit up against the wall, head burried in his knees as he continues to listen to the non-stop crying. He’s crying very quietly to himself now, feeling helpless & like the worst person & parent in the world for letting his child cry & not doing anything about it. He almost caves in, until he feels a presence sit next to him & wrap him into their arms.
-Feeling his husband’s distress from their room (because demon abilities), Damien goes out to support Pip; he knows that this is a very difficult trial for him, but the demon just keeps reassuring him that he’s doing amazing, & that he’s so proud of him for being strong. He knows how hard this is for his husband, but he also knows that he can get through this stage in parenting, & that he will be there with him every step of the way.
-After HOURS of this continuing, their child eventually seems to get the message, or just exhausts himself, & finally, finally, the crying stops.
-Feeling immensely proud of his husband, Damien hugs him close & whispers his praises to him. Pip feels accomplished, but he’s also very exhausted, both physically and emotionally; this was very hard on him & it hurt. But they both know they did the right thing.
-Quietly, Damien leads an emotionally drained Pip back to bed, & the blond is passed out within 30 seconds in his husbands arms.
-This is the first “good” night of sleep they’ve both had in months.

Thoughts on asg having not only one kid but 3? (Aka the remnants)
im entirely on board with that thought, i think it would be entirely chaotic in every possible way! i do think they could figure out how to manage it though
being they’re first time parents and of three children, they probably have to play trial and error a lot, but i feel angeal is quickly able to pick up on each one of their quirks and sephiroth is able to strategize how to manage each of them, but poor genesis is stressed to hell and back and nearly ripping out his hair the entire time
i feel like infancy would be the easiest stage… meaning not easy at all because infants are usually a nightmare, and having three is most likely even worse! especially when its the remnants… i think baby loz would cling to angeal like his life depended on it, to the point angeal has to get one of those baby carriers that straps the baby to your chest, and none of the others would be able to settle loz no matter what. and i think kadaj would be an overall ultra fussy baby, none of them are getting sleep with him around and they all end up having to take shifts to care for him, although for some reason, after kadaj has started tiring himself out, sephiroth is the one that is for some reason able to put him to sleep. i think baby yazoo would be just an absolute angel though, like the perfect baby everyone would wish for, a little clingy but nothing near as bad as loz, and luckiky he doesn’t seem to have much of a parental preference so they’re all able to manage him quite easily.
i think toddler-childhood years with the remnants were a nightmare not only for asg but for yazoo and loz too for having to be brothers of kadaj! the remnants definitely gave asg a major run for their money, but mainly kadaj… kadaj was definitely a little asshole that would bully, fight, and steal loz and yazoo’s toys and such, and was definitely overall just very misbehaved, causing angeal to have to step in and issue punishments, meanwhile genesis was running around to try and sort everything out and help calm down a sobbing loz and sephiroth could probably calm yazoo with ease, although i dont think yazoo would be very bad, maybe a few tears here and there but sephiroth would just mainly have to talk yazoo out of trying to retaliate against kadaj… unfortunately, despite sephiroth’s efforts, genesis will be willing to look the other way on occasion when yazoo does retaliate.
teenage years were definitely the worst though, for everyone involved! genesis probably had to deal with each of their emotional problems, especially because teenage kadaj is most likely reminiscent of teenage genesis going through an angsty phase. loz still very much favors angeal, and i don’t think loz gets into much trouble, but i do think he’d be the most bullied of them all, so angeal would have to frequently try and help loz. angeal is definitely still the punishment giver though, although kadaj and sometimes yazoo dont always listen to angeal, so sephiroth has to step in instead, in which they know they’re in major trouble at that point. i feel like asg definitely raised them well enough that none of the remnants got into any truly bad trouble though, probably just doing the standard teenage angst kind of shit that would get them grounded for like a week.
overall, despite there definitely being plenty of ups and downs, i think asg would do pretty well with three kids! they would definitely be running around constantly but i think with just a bit of communication, the three of them would be able to manage the remnants, especially with each of the remnants having a different favorite parent. the remnants would ultimately grow up pretty well! healthy and happy for the most part! i think they’d be a really nice, healthy family at the end of day, especially when the remnants are all grown up
#im really sorry i definitely somehow lost the plot somewhere along the way…#im also sorry this is so long! idk what happened… i started typing and now were here#i hope this is okay though!#i think i just got excited and ran with the idea#ff7#ffvii#final fantasy 7#crisis core#advent children#asg#the remnants#angeal hewley#sephiroth#genesis rhapsodos#kadaj ff7#yazoo ff7#loz ff7#i think this is my first time talking abt ac and the remnants despite me loving them a lot

The Mandalorian Season 3 - Post-Binge Opinions
So I just binged the last season of the Mandalorian and while I enjoyed it enough, I do have some opinions about it (because it’s Star Wars and I always have opinions about Star Wars)
Since it’s 3am and there’s no way I’m gonna be able to sleep right now, you get them in no particular order.
1. Why do they never close and lock their ship when they leave it? This makes no damn sense and opens them up to the worst possible security issues...
2. Bo-Katan’s throne room is ridiculously big. Alright, it would be impressive if it was filled, but her just lounging there all alone made me want to throw therapist numbers at her.
3. Speaking of therapist, shouldn’t have Grogu have had those PTSD flashbacks earlier? Also, I don’t like them dropping bits so randomly like this. I suppose they’ll use them later in future season. But it felt quite “let’s drop that here since it doesn’t fit anywhere else” to me.
4. I also admit I was bored most of ep3. I just didn’t care about what happened to the doctor and I feel disappointed that the longest episode of the season was almost exclusively about two minor characters, one we don’t even see again later.
5. While Grogu being all toddler “no no no” with Mando was fun and cute, Greef Karga choosing to cannibalize IG-11′s corpse to give like that says a lot about how little thought they give to droids despite them being sentient. Me didn’t like that.
6. Speaking of Grogu in that droid, what the hell was Mando thinking when he took him to Mandalore’s surface??? He knew they were going into an unknown potentially very dangerous situation. Taking the kid with him made absolutely no sense and shows that he really doesn’t have any experience with children.
7. This point may be influenced by fanon, but even if it is, I don’t care. Where are the non-humans Mandalorians??? They are a “swear the Creed, become one of us” people. They shouldn’t be all humans or near-humans!
8. The fights were disappointing, especially the gun fights. Most of them just felt too staged (which I know they are, but they aren’t supposed to feel that way) and boring and like the Mandalorians were Stormtroopers who couldn’t aim. Until they suddenly could 🙄
9. Why are Mandalorians so self-sacrificial? I don’t care that it makes sense with their culture and that it was a logical enough choice. I didn’t want Paz to die!!! I like his big dick/gun energy and the way he’s just very guided by his emotions and his pride.
But I guess that’s what fics are so I’m gonna head up to AO3 later, and hopefully someone will have already fulfilled my fix-it need🤞
10. I always assumed that Mando’s first name was Din and his last name Djarin. Which is my Western raising showing I know. They could have told us before the last episode of the 3rd season that it’s the opposite though! Because if they did it earlier, I completely missed it 🤷♀️
11. Can they stop making the big bad guy come back in a full black armor? Darth Vader is dead and the vibes are over 🙄
12. The New Republic is proving to be very fussy about procedures and paperwork, which I expected. I didn’t expect them to go the forced indoctrination way though. That part was a bit darker than I expected. I did like it though!
So, this was my post-bing ramble. Hopefully it’ll still make sense when I get up tomorrow!

good heart (faulty machine of a man) - 10/30
fic summary: bucky meets someone at therapy
chapter summary: rue is the topic of conversation
word count: 1279
tags: post endgame, pre tfatws, hurt/comfort, slow burn, canon divergent, canon compliant, au
warnings: none
a/n: rue is back and... a little clueless, a little cute too. I'm sure bucky will find it in his heart to forgive her lol
AO3 MASTERLIST X
November 4
“Hey!”
Rue’s face brightens when Bucky walks into the therapy suite. Instead of startling, he stops and watches her. She’s in the middle of the waiting room, adjusting chairs in neat rows.
“Miss me?” she teases.
“I heard you were out of town,” he evades. “Have a good trip?”
(He knows his questions are coming out stilted and cold. He wants to change that, but there’s something like resentment settled in him.)
“Yeah, actually my brother surprised me by buying me a ticket to visit.” She sidles next to him, pulling up pictures on her phone. “It was my nephew’s birthday, and then I stayed for Halloween. This is them.”
She shows him a couple and a toddler, dressed as zombies. Even with the face paint, Bucky can see the resemblance between Rue and her brother. The toddler looks more like his mother, both pale and red-haired.
“That’s cute.”
She doesn’t notice his flat tone - or maybe, she doesn’t acknowledge it. She continues, swiping through a few pictures of her nephew, and the last picture is of her, dressed like a butterfly with rainbow wings.
“The last time my brother was a zombie, he was five and I was eight, so I wore the same costume to recreate the moment.” She produces another picture of their younger selves, Rue wearing too much blue eyeshadow and blue wings and her brother looking pretty much the same as his costume now.
(He nods, his hands still in his pockets. He feels like this is a breach of privacy or professionalism or something. On one hand, he can admit he likes that her defenses are more lax around him now, but on the other hand, her conserved attitude would have been convenient right now. He feels himself closing off to her, and he tries not to ask himself why.)
“James.”
Bucky and Rue turn to Dr. Raynor. Rue quickly returns to tidying the waiting room, adjusting chairs and re-stacking magazines. Raynor eyes the two interestedly.
“Good luck,” Rue stage whispers as Bucky walks away.
////
In the therapy room, once they’ve settled in their seats, Raynor studies Bucky for a moment before asking what he knows she’s already going to ask.
“Are you and Ruby…?” He waits to see if she’ll finish that sentence. She switches directions. “You two seem… close.”
“We’re not.”
Raynor gives him a suspicious look. His face remains neutral despite the urge to frown.
“I hear you guys talking in the waiting room often.”
He didn’t know she could hear them, but her office is the closest to the waiting room. “Yeah, we talk sometimes. People talk.”
Her eyebrows raise.
“People do talk,” she jots something down, and Bucky wants to break her pen, “and she’s not the worst person to talk to.”
(He wants to lash out, say something inflammatory or defensive, but he knows Raynor wants to study his reaction - so he gives her none.)
“You know, when Greta mentioned a lot of people were disturbed to see her instead of Ruby, I didn’t think–”
“I wasn’t disturbed,” he defends immediately. She waits and watches. He purses his lips. “I just… didn’t expect her not to be here.”
“Right, right.” Raynor makes more notes. The sound of bending metal gives Bucky away as his fists tighten. Her eyes lift to his hands briefly before finishing her thought and putting her pen down. “A few weeks ago, we talked about trust.”
“Two weeks ago.”
“Yes, thank you.” She has a habit of long pauses. “And I believe I said something like trusting others can help you trust yourself.” She watches him for a reaction she’s not going to get. “For example, when you trust someone not to abandon you, you’re putting a little faith in them, but you’re also putting a little faith in yourself to get through the uncomfortable feelings of their absence because you have faith they’ll return.”
“Okay?” He knows he’s being difficult in a way he hasn’t presented to her before. Hostile. She, however, seems to thrive in this situation.
“So, maybe we can continue that exercise by putting ourselves out there.” She holds her hands up to Bucky’s protest. “I don’t mean something monumental like dating or joining a spin class or whatever. I mean, maybe, making conversations with a service worker or someone on the train…” She hits him with a cryptic look. “I mean, you’re already doing that with the receptionist.”
(He wants to tell her that he’s not just ‘making conversation with her’, that it feels like forming a friendship of sorts, but that would contradict everything else he’d said about Rue.)
He defends himself again, “Sam recommended this boxing gym, so I joined it.”
“Really?” Interest lights her face and her voice. Her pen flies across the page. “And how’s that going for you? How are you getting along with the other members?”
“Well, I have to go after hours, because of this,” he lifts his prosthetic. She starts to write again, so he rushes, “but I talk to George.”
She doesn’t even ask who George is. “That’s great, James - this is a really positive development.” She sounds like a grade school teacher commending a kid for not eating the glue. “Did you reach out to Sam to thank him or are you still ignoring his texts?”
Low blow. Bucky remains silent, fidgeting with the zipper of his jacket.
“You know what - baby steps. I think you’re doing an excellent job so far. I want us to build on this, at your own pace, tying ‘trust’ and ‘putting yourself out there’ - and I’m going to nudge you to meet more people, do more things. Make connections.”
(He can’t help what his face does, splitting into a sly grin.)
“Okay, explain that,” she waves a hand to indicate his face. When he schools his features, she says, “Okay, so either your fist connected with another person, or your Johnson did, so let’s get into it.”
////
Before he leaves the building, Rue catches up with him with the noisy clomping of her shoes.
“Hey, Bucky, wait up!”
(He doesn’t want to stop. Despite Raynor’s validation and reassurances, confessing to his sexual endeavors from the other night felt daming. She tells him it’s a good thing for him to answer his body’s messages, but because he hadn’t told her about the nightmares, she doesn’t know he’s not using sex to answer messages, he’s using it to ignore them.)
He slows and catches Rue by the shoulder before she can barrel into him. Her cheeks are flushed, her eyes wide and searching.
“Are we… good?”
(Whatever negative feelings he had been holding toward her dissolve at the way her voice becomes fragile.)
“Yeah.”
“Good.” Her smile is less tense. “Let me give you my number.”
(He knows her implications - so you don’t have to worry about me - so he doesn’t ask why. He also would not mind adding her to the other four people on his contacts list.)
After she recites her number, and he types it in, she says, “Text me, so I know it’s you.”
“Now?”
“Yeah.”
“What do I say?”
“I know you’re old, but people usually start a conversation with ‘hi’.” Her eyes twinkle at his flattened look.
Bucky: Hi
Her phone chimes, and she smiles.
Rue: Who is this?
She looks at Bucky expectantly and laughs at his confusion.
Rue: Jk, this is Rue
“What does that mean?”
“We have a lot of texting etiquette to cover if you don’t know what ‘jk’ means,” she laughs. “I’ll text you your first lesson when I get home.”
Bucky nods and sends her a text.
Bucky: I’m looking forward to it.

So I am projecting believe it or not when I give this scenario- Terry and Beloved have a son or daughter (they are around 4, 5ish?) and beloved just had another child. The 5 year old snakey becomes very jealous of all the attention Papa and Mommy give their baby sibling (like this genuinely upsets the toddler) so they run away from home. (In their young mind this is a brilliant idea- but they are wandering the streets of L.A. alone as a child) what are the stages of Terry’s thoughts and reaction
You know that movie Baby's Day Out (1994) where a toddler from a wealthy family gets lost and has a joyride around New York while two goons are after him for ransom money? 😂 Yeah, excuse me, THAT, but it is Snake, Dennis (and Mike Barnes for all we know --- imagine an angry Mike Barnes, who's kind of still a kid himself looking for his Billionaire patron's baby because his next paycheck and Terry's mercy overall vastly depends on it) employed by a very desperate and pissed off Terry, among a posse of other payroll people and professionals, to find his escaped kid. The field day AO3 could have with this idea. TKK3 Baby's Day Out AU FTW! Nonironically love it.
Anyway, the little snakey slithered away.
I think Terry would personally go out and look for them. Nevermind the help of the authorities and his own people he can pay for in any era, to look along with him discreetly, but I legitimately think that in situations like this, he cannot sit idle and he has to take control of the situation and adheres to the ‘If you wanna do something right, do it yourself’. Don’t figure he’d use fliers. There’s a danger in putting Terry Silver’s child on a flier, and heck, he probably finds it distasteful and a bit low brow. Doesn’t want his kid’s face on milk cartons and street light poles either. Doesn’t want the entirety of LA looking at them. That’s where his possessive streak comes in. So, I literally envision Terry just feverishly driving around, day and night and not stopping until he literally finds them himself before anyone else --- which, of course he did. He prides himself on that. He wasn’t a Green Beret for nothing. He can track and he can, I envision, track very well. Undoubtedly knows his child well enough to decipher just where they’d most likely go, or where a child who wants to get lost would go deliberately --- and of course he knows they’re jealous of the newborn he and beloved just had. Terry knows all about envy. Finds them huddled under some bridge somewhere, with perhaps, a baby blanket they stole from the mansion to keep them warm. Terry just stands there, as someone that one cannot escape from, looks at them and simply says ‘ So, you had your first escapade, huh? Perfect. Lets go home.’ He isn’t angry at snakey. Terry treats it like it was a picnic. He’s rather, angry at the situation at large and how things dramatically slipped out of control like this. His kid could’ve gotten hurt. If he’s peeved at anyone, it is the paid staff that allowed a five year old child of his slip away without alerting him. Picks up his kid, smothers them under his arm and it is guaranteed someone’s gonna get fired back home. Snakey’s safe, off of the streets where there’s bad people --- luckily, papa’s some of the worst people out there and he always finds and comes back for what’s his.

Rant Continued 2/3
Growing together is such a slap in the face. I don’t know about you, but I am pretty sure most of us OG simmers are family players. Generations style pack has been highly requested for years. And EVEN if you have growing together, parenthood, cottage living, highschool years, nifty nitting, and whatever other packs add family gameplay, it still feels empty compared to sims 3 generations. I don’t know if it’s because EA has cut up family gameplay so much and put it behind several paywalls, everything feels disconnected… each family style pack it’s always the bare minimum, so yeah when you add all of the family gameplay aspects together then yeah would feel like a proper generations pack but with the price tag of 230$+ not 60$ … and even with that 230$ price tag it still feels like there’s barely any gameplay, especially when they hardly work together and compliment eachother…I won’t be surprised if in a few months or years we will see a elderly expansion pack.. I won’t be surprised if they make a kids game pack or a baby/toddler game pack/kit. EA has gotten too big for it’s britches, they realized that if they starve players for gameplay, they will buy it all… people got so sick of EA’s sh*t that most people just stopped buying on release, started waiting for major sales during holiday seasons/new pack releases… so what did EA do? Paywall 3 items making it so you have to buy the pack not on sale inorder to get the extra 3 items. I personally wouldn’t be mad about this, if it was like 10 items, then fine, but like only 3? Not worth the 60$ price tag when the expansions are already empty to begin with. The 3 growing together items sucked and I was going to wait for sale until I realized nope I have to buy the pack inorder for infants to work as advertised… Bottom line growing together is NOT a generations pack, it’s an INFANT expansion pack with 3 gameplay items and HARDLY NEW and updated chemistry/family system… things modders already accomplished YEARS AGO. There are no nursing homes, the recreation centre could have been game changing but alas it’s just a park where sims show up to use certain items on different days, even spa day has more gameplay than that, sims show up, use the spa facilities, the gym, attend yoga classes, use bar etc, and all on same day 😂 The world is empty and even more stripped down. There’s nothing for teens, no reminiscing for adults and elders. There’s no new gameplay for kids other than a tree house and a glitchy bike. Barely any new moodlets, interactions for all life stages accept infants. Then worst of all, it’s a buggy mess altogether… does nobody at EA not play test and check for bugs before release? You’d think they would have more time to do quality control ever since they off loaded building lots for THEIR game onto game changers 😂 which if you think about it… what does EA actually do? They don’t build their own lots, they don’t make game changing gameplay improvements and expansions that haven’t already been done by a modder FIRST and BETTER. Which is another thing I noticed years ago which I’ll get into in a second. EA doesn’t make quality build/buy/CAS majority of the time, almost always every lifestage accept young adult female is left behind in CAS. Growing together’s CAS/Build&Buy mode was honestly the worst. CAS especially, the clothes were only good for a grandma. The build and buy was so empty and disconnected, the items that were cool, no matching set, no matching kitchen set for the fridge and stove. The items would have been awesome, if they were completed. In all reality no offence to the people who work at EA, imo they don’t have a single original idea in their heads.. even if the issues was because EA’s time constraints and greedy bullsh*t… I don’t think that’s entirely the case or even true. The only game changing elements that have been added to the sims has been the building mechanics… everything else they added was already a BASE GAME feature of previous games, or gameplay that modders already made years ahead of them and for the most part BETTER. 2/3

The day your child starts prekindergarten should be a happy day, right? You’ve made it the first four years and now it’s time to let your baby fly into the world of school, make friends, learn and become the next adult of our country.
I used to dream about the day my oldest son would start school, and with the world we live in, the closer the day gets the more terrified I am. With the lives lost in sandy hook, and the recent lives lost in the Uvalde massacre it doesn’t feel like sending your child to school is an exciting chapter anymore. Young children, preschoolers and elementary students are losing their life at a place that should feel safe and have fun. What has this world turned into it? A day that you’re supposed to take pictures, kiss your children and wish them the best and hope they learn something turns into fear you’ll never see that child again. I’m already a paranoid and over protective mama, I mean if I could put my kid in a plastic bubble I would! I’m the mom who constantly says “stop running outside!” (Where you should run) to avoid one of my children falling and hurting themselves, or hitting their head on a concrete (which has happened countless times) they are boys this is bound to happen right? I’m still in the mom stage of “don’t touch that, it’s dirty!” “Let’s clean your hands” “don’t put your hands in your mouth.” When my toddler first stated daycare he was about 8 months old and after 3 days got an ear infection, eye infection, and croup, and about after a week I pulled him out and became a stay at home mom. Since about 8 months old we’ve tried daycare again a couple more times and the same things happen so I pulled him back out and stayed home. Who wants to see their child sick? It’s the worst feeling. Here we are about to enter the lions den with so many more children and I know he will get sick again which I’m dreading but this isn’t daycare, this is school!
My toddler is so excited to start school, he has his backpack already picked out and is just counting down the days, yet here I am staying awake at night, tossing and turning thinking about his first day of school, and I think I have normal mom problems! I lay there and wonder what if he doesn’t listen, what if someone is mean to him? What if someone makes him cry or feel bad, what if he gets picked on? What if someone hits him? This is my first born son, and I’m now leaving him in the hands of people I don’t know, around other children I don’t know. It’s terrifying! I really hope I’m not the only one who has these fears! I just pray everyday that God and our savior Jesus Christ protects my son, the children of the school, the staff and teachers. That’s all we can do right? We can’t live in constant fear something terrible is going to happen and seclude our children. Bad things happen everyday, but targeting children makes absolutely no sense to me. They don’t even know the difference between bad people and good people, they haven’t even had a chance to learn about themselves, they haven’t had the chance to soil their innocence. They are pure and full of love. Just hearing my son say “I love you mom!” When I leave for work makes my whole day.
That’s it for this mama, everyone remember to be kind, love, be patient and remember no one is perfect but we can try everyday to remind ourselves we are loved, and we want to leave this world a better, safer place for our children.

you were loved the most the most of all.
Ushijima Wakatoshi x Reader | breakup angst
Summary: You should've known that when Ushijima Wakatoshi found it easy to fall in love with you, it might be even easier for him to fall out of it. But who expects the worst when it comes to loving someone as seemingly perfect as him, anyway?
Chapter 1 of 2
Chapter 2 of 2
Middle schooler Ushijima Wakatoshi was already more special than the kids around him. This, he was made to believe. It’s not exactly like it was wrong either. When a child is raised the way he was, with so much support that it’s suffocating, one can only grow to be good at what they were told they were meant to be doing. Volleyball as a toddler was meant for the happier times, a memory locked away as nothing but a feeling of nostalgia, never to be completely remembered again. Volleyball as a middle school player was an endless beginning, the very first point of a journey with no real possible end. Volleyball as one of the best among kids of his age, proven by the strength his high school team was known for and the fact that he was already on the world stage as well, could only ever spur him on to keep the momentum. Keep climbing, he would be reminded. Never stop. That’s how you reach the peak. Whether he would break after all that or rise to the very top was never even a matter of discussion. The way to the top was the only one there was. Looking back down and allowing himself to just freefall until the top becomes a distance almost crossed but never reached wasn’t ever an option. Wakatoshi could only ever aim for the very peak.
So, Wakatoshi, how’s volleyball as a pro?
The feeling of a dream-come-true that never was a dream, he might say. But him and sentimental descriptions simply didn’t really mix much. You were the one filled to the brim with those kinds of words. Maybe flowers laced the walls of your chest, maybe when God kicked Adam and Eve out of Eden, he left the garden to grow and flourish within your lungs, maybe you unknowingly raised every single Godly creation and so you were blessed with the power to create as well. You were full of flowery words, that’s what he knows. He would listen to every single one of them, count every petal, water every plant, kiss every one of them in their full bloom, and watch as sunlight filtered orange sets on all that you are. He’s always liked plants. But yours were his favourite.
So he wonders why the point where he could no longer listen to your words had to come. Why he looked at you and only felt the kind of fondness that comes with familiarity but not exactly love. Why the way your hands entwined with his no longer fills his chest with warmth. Why the abyss he spent trying to fill before you arrived (and made him realise maybe empty spaces were never meant to be filled to feel full but instead filled to feel warm) now feels extremely cold again. So maybe things like love do end. And maybe he made promises too soon.
So maybe when you told him about your mother and father and about how they made promises too but couldn’t come through, and when Wakatoshi thought you won’t ever be the same, he was wrong. Maybe one of them realised letting go when love no longer feels the same is better than letting their hands stay entwined when there’s only numbing coldness left to be felt. So maybe it’d do you better for him to let things end. From this point onwards, whatever he does will only ever hurt you. Because you crave the kind of affection that won’t ever end, and how he wish he could keep giving that to you, but he just no longer can. And staying with him who, for whatever fucked up reason the cosmos came up with, can no longer find the love he spent years sharing with you, is something he would never wish upon you.
This fucking hurts. How he fucking wants to keep loving you. What the hell happened?
After you left, Wakatoshi skipped training. He felt bad for eating the omelette when you cooked it to wish him luck. But he ate it anyway, wondering if he will ever see you again. And if so, will he feel find himself feeling the way he used to? And if yes, would you want that?
How do feelings work anyway?
--
You get to work right away. Still feeling heavy and hurt, sobbing at times, you keep collecting Wakatoshi’s things from your apartment. There were a lot. You were both comfortable with sharing your spaces with each other anytime you both wanted. Sometimes leaving things behind caused problems like that time Wakatoshi left his jersey in your apartment and only realized on the day of a game. You had to head to the gym earlier than you usually do, thankfully having washed the clothing a few days before. It’s actually there again, you find. His Schweiden Adler jersey in your closet among the pile of his other shirts and pyjamas. You put all that and other things into a box and close it up. For now, you’ll clean your place and get some sleep. You slept late last night and you woke up too early. Dealing with lack of sleep and the taxing feelings of ache after a breakup was too much. You were exhausted.
The moment you lie on your bed, you feel yourself falling asleep. And then you do. World gone.
You wake up at around lunch and take a short shower. You dress up, carry the box of Wakatoshi’s stuff, head out, lock your door, and go on your away to Tendou’s chocolate shop. You weren’t friends with him before you met Wakatoshi. So, you guess, maybe this will be the last you see him too. When people lose others, they either prefer to keep remembering or completely forget. For your sake, you’d rather be the latter.
Tendou’s shop isn’t close enough to the train station. You have to walk a few more minutes before you reach it. The box you’re carrying isn’t exactly heavy but you still feel sluggish even after that nap. You stop by a café to gather your wits and rest a bit. When you meet Tendou, you know he’ll greet you brightly. Toshi wouldn’t have told him that you broke up just yet. You realised long ago that unless asked by people, Toshi would rather not say anything most of the time. His silence was one you grew used to. Now you have to get used to not being around it anymore.
When you enter the chocolate shop, you see his red hair behind the counter right away. Quite the opposite of Wakatoshi, he’s lively and loud when he wants to be. Like right now, as he’s talking to a costumer, excitedly helping them choose one of the products they’re looking for. You wait until he’s done, just sending him a wave when he sees you, smiling. When the costumer leaves, you head for the counter and place the box you’ve been holding on top pf it.
Loudly, as you expected, he says, “hello! What brings you here? Haven’t seen you in like, three days, I think? You need anything? Where’s Wakatoshi-san? He’s not with you? Why?”
His barrage of questions won’t be left unanswered. But first, you nudge the box toward him. “Uhm, yeah, haven’t seen you in days. I… uhm, I’m here to ask you to do something. Related to Toshi-kun, of course, and well, why he’s… not, uhm, here…? With me?”
You stutter a lot mainly because you don’t exactly feel like announcing that Wakatoshi broke up with you. Tendou simply seems extremely excited to see you and even hopeful to see his best friend too but right now, you just feel like crying all over again It’s like you just can’t run out of tears. You just know that after this, you’ll go home and sob the rest of the day away. Breaking up with Wakatoshi hurt you a lot.
The redhead urges you on, concern beginning to appear on his face. What with the way you’re stuttering and fidgeting when you’re usually so comfortable around him and other people, it’s easy to tell that you’re not feeling too well. Clearly, something must have happened between you and Wakatoshi.
“So… we… kind of broke up…?” the lack of certainty in your voice makes it seem as though you’re still unsure if things really did end between you and the pro-athlete you’ve spent years with. But with the way Wakatoshi told you his reasons for breaking up last night, and how he didn’t want to keep hurting you because you’ve already talked to him about two other people who met and fell in love and did many things and yet still fell out of it but tried to hold on for too long that they ended up tearing each other down until even their daughter started to break with them until it’s just one tiny family with sharp shards for hearts, only capable of hurting each other and nothing more (some daughters grow up wanting to be anything but their mothers and fathers). Of course, Wakatoshi never mentioned that story, but you both knew that when he said he knows he can only really hurt you even more if he lets things run as they always did, he meant, we’re not your parents. We won’t tear each other down. If you go now, you’ll be okay enough to not be the person you’ll come to hate.
The only thing you allow Tendou to know is that you and Wakatoshi are no longer dating and that you’re both okay with it. You leave it at that, and when Tendou gives you a hug, the pain in your chest runs up your throat and you start crying again but that’s alright because Tendou reminds you that you’re sad and hurt and crying makes sense and crying helps and crying is fine and maybe crying makes it hurt a little bit less. He pats your back and says nothing after that, simply letting you calm down.
Before you leave, you purchase a few sweets because Tendou told u it’ll help. Chocolates and sadness work too well with each other.

The last time Wakatoshi remembers talking to you was around a year after your breakup. He and his team known to be one of the bests of Japan lost against the bests of Argentina in the Olympics. The world stage wasn't a strange new world to him and neither was loss, but for the first time in many years, the man found himself burdened by the weight of too many regrets.
He knew then that maybe it wasn't exactly losing against Argentina that made him feel this way. Maybe the emptiness he so desperately filled by pouring too much of his days into training and playing was finally there to break him. Maybe the whole time he was thinking he was getting there, not knowing where, only hoping to keep going because he just doesn't know where he can stop to lay his pieces down, he was only distracted enough to not miss the warmth you brought with you which you took with you when he broke your heart. And so when he lost that game, he questioned what could possibly keep him going. When does this journey end? Until when must he keep going? His parents never told him when he was younger. All this time, he only knew to keep forward. Now that he has won one too many games and finally lost one of the most important games he could play, he finds himself wondering if he should stop here now.
And because you knew him too much, you just had to, you know, be that rock that kept him steady even after he hurt you. He went and broke your heart for reasons he himself still cannot really explain, like how the fuck he knew he was no longer in love with you, and why the fuck is he still missing you, and is God playing with him right fucking now? So you just had to call him when he was all alone in his hotel room, mind messed up in so many ways. Your voice just to had to be there. To tell him, you did so well today. To be honest, I haven't watched much of your games recently but I felt like I just had to watch this one. And it was so awesome. It makes me wanna start watching you play again. You're amazing, Wakatoshi-kun. I'm so proud of you.
And then a year later, Wakatoshi finds out that you finally published the novel you’ve been working on since way before he met you. In the first message you sent him, you attached a picture of your book, saying, look at the name on the cover. are you proud of me yet? I am too<3. Better grab yourself a copy before there's none left, right? He couldn't say for sure why you decided to message him about it. It wasn't like you stayed in contact, both of you aware of how much you preferred not facing the past if you had the choice. That time after he lost against Tooru Oikawa's team in the Olympics and you gave him a call was because you're just that kind. You're just that amazing.
But like many things he'll never understand, he just lets this one be. So what if you told him about your book? He should be thankful enough that you even decided to tell him about it. So he goes and buys a copy and reads it as soon as he gets home. It's not like he's big on reading. But he just really likes your words.
Epilogue
...and if someday we find ourselves in a universe where soulmates are filled to the brim with not only stardust but also pure serendipity, I wonder what kind of mark we would have. I kinda wish it'd be that one where ink on my skin gets inked on yours too. Then maybe it'd be so much easier to tell you all the secrets I've been trying to keep. Like how I spent too many years regretting not succumbing in that green lake back home or how sometimes I bleed all over in red angry lines running down like red angry tears, and how much you made me just want to live because you just made me feel loved the most of all. Because maybe you were my finallyfinallyfinallyfinally before you were my whywhywhywhywhywhy.
The End
