#look I have all these cooking mods and camping stuff
Text
It's finally done cooking, my sims gameplay ideas list! After scouring all types of sites, generators, lists, and my brain for ingredients, I've come up with a list stew that hopefully will spark some inspiration for your sims gameplays!
This non exhaustive list consists of ideas that are applicable to sims gameplay/things to do in-game. AKA things that can be played out in the sims or half pretended. If you're looking for less-gameplay story ideas, I recommend my story/conflict idea list. Most of the conflict and love ideas are on that list.
Please feel free to send asks to add to the gumbo! Just note in your ask that it's for the gumbo and keep it applicable/feasible for gameplay. (To keep the post from getting too long I'll make a contributor list into a compressed image later on for those who send off-anon.)

Hey, you know how I tried to restart Fallout 4 properly around my birthday with a new Victor save? Yeah, uh, ran into a few issues with crashes and whatnot and had to start again! Fortunately, after much fiddling and poking and whatnot, I seem to have finally gotten myself a save that’s at least somewhat stable, so this here should be my final Victor Sole Survivor to go through the game with. Allow me to go through some of the pertinent points of my playthrough with you:
Appearance: Yeah, I had to redo him again -- at least this time I’m a bit happier with the eye spacing. He’s always going to look rather weird simply because I’m trying to translate a Tim Burton character into flesh, but I think I did a pretty good job under the circumstances!
...As for his fashion sense, he found the chestpiece and whatnot in a suitcase by Sanctuary, and the hat gives him +1 Intelligence and thus is giving me a bit more experience for his early quests. He’s not here to look good, he’s here to level up.
Stats: I ended up having to tweak his SPECIAL, mostly because I forgot just how many points you get at the beginning, and because I wanted to pivot slightly with how I designed his build. Here’s what he started out with:
Strength: 3
Perception: 3
Endurance: 7
Charisma: 2
Intelligence: 7
Agility: 4
Luck: 2
He’s still a high Endurance/Intelligence build, but I’ve decided that Agility is probably going to be his third “main” stat, because perks like “Moving Target” (harder to hit when you’re sprinting) make sense for him. (I mean, dodging like crazy was how he survived so long against Barkis!) I’ve already boosted it twice -- once with the You’re SPECIAL! book that you can find in Shaun’s room, and once through a level-up. I’ve also boosted his Perception thanks to the bobblehead in the Museum of Freedom. As for perks, he’s currently level 5, so I have the following:
Scrapper Level 1 (scavenge more uncommon components from scrapping things)
Gun Nut Level 1 (basic gun mods)
Armorer Level 1 (basic armor mods)
Given Victor’s whole “thing” in this universe is that he’s something of a tinkerer and good at modding things, this felt appropriate. :p
Mods: Because it’s not recommended to play without them! Certainly not without the fixes. . . Anyway, my complete mod list as of now is below, if you’re curious. I did try to vaguely group them into “these mods are part of the same category and/or go together,” but it’s not perfect. Still, if you see anything you find interesting, feel free to go to the link and check it out!
Fallout 4 Script Extender (https://f4se.silverlock.org/): Allows for script changes, enables certain other mods and serves as my game launcher through Vortex
Achievements Mod Enabler (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/15639): Enables achievements in a modded game; requires manual install (extract files into Fallout 4 folder)
Mod Configuration Menu (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/21497/): Adds a menu for configuring compatible mods; uses F4SE
Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/4598): General bugfixes and small improvements
Crafting Highlight Fix (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/27479): Removes the crafting “highlights” overlay so you can actually see your items while crafting; uses F4SE and requires MCM (to adjust things like how power armor pieces are highlighted)
Elevator Buttons Fix (Contraptions) (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/20664): Fixes floating elevator buttons from Contraptions (buttons can appear miles from the actual control panel)
Rusty Face Fix (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/31028): Fixes the rusty face glitch that may occur with the PC and NPCs (turning faces brown)
Nuka-World Bottle Scenery Fix (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/17853): Fixes the giant bottles that can sometimes spawn in Nuka World instead of the regular-sized models, completely obscuring the game world
No Aggro Impact Landing (Power Armor) (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/9019): Stops friendly characters getting aggroed if you jump from a great height and land near them in Power Armor
Vault 81 Molerat Disease Immunity with Power Armor and Hazmat (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/5646): Stops you getting infected with the Molerat Disease if you're wearing full power armor (chance of infection goes up with each missing piece of armor), or if your companion gets bit; lesser chance of infection if you're wearing a hazmat suit
CryoFreez Fix (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/10000): Fixes the bug where, if an enemy dies as a result of the Cryolater or other cryo-based weapons, they will respawn in a weird “dead” state with no AI
Cattle Feeders Immersively Filled (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11998): Two files; first adds a filled water trough for brahmin to use, second fills the vanilla feed trough with plants
Worthwhile Caps Stashes (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/23464): Increases the amount of caps in stash and have them contain other junk items; also makes the stash tin itself a junk item
Piper Interview Restored (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/21829): Restores some cut questions post Piper’s interview about your pre-war life
Dumpster Diving (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/33474): Adds new containers to open dumpsters with new and amusing junk to collect
More Grind-Free Game Settings (from Thuggyfied – A Fallout 4 Mod List) (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/41435): Removes the need to get “Local Leader” Rank 2 to make crafting benches; quest markers display from five times further away; followers no longer auto-attack non-hostile Radstags; settlers run to the summoning bell; Jet doesn’t show up in pre-War coolers and containers (just Vault 95); pipe weapons no longer show up in Pre-War safes or trunks; ability to craft a “Jetpack Ring” at the chem station (I mainly got this for the first two items)
Useful Pulse and Cryo Explosives 1.1b (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/24848): Tweaks the cryo grenade’s damage output and fixes the “dead enemy AI respawn bug” for cryo grenades; tweaks how the pulse grenade works, making it affect robots and turrets more strongly and removing damage to organic enemies (though the explosion can still stagger them); also changes the crafting recipes
Wasteland Survival Guide 5 - More Map Markers (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/26367): Changes Wasteland Survival Guide #5 (available in Gorski Cabin) to mark not only Diamond City, but also Goodneighbor, the Glowing Sea, Boston Airport, and Quincy
Strong Back Improved – Weightless Equipped Apparel (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/17361): Improves the “Strong Back” perk to first halve the weight of worn apparel, then make it entirely weightless, and give more carry capacity out of Power Armor
Diamond City Plus (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/19293): Updates Diamond City with new shacks and interiors to the lower stands (including an arcade and a laundry!), along with new NPCs to populate them; also adds a proper farm with brahmin and chickens by the mutfuit plants
Commonwealth Wilderness Overhaul (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/41008): Adds lots of little scenes, objects, and creatures (including rad rabbits, rad chickens, and wolves) to the Commonwealth Wilderness to fill it out and make it more interesting
Nuka World Open Season Extend II -- Assignable Factions - Recruitable NPCs (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/47209): Allows you, post- the “Open Season” quest, to attract settlers to Nuka-World who can then be sent to regular settlements, and populate the parks and main market area with more traders, or various faction NPCs! (So if you really want the Minutemen to hold Nuka World after you gun everybody down, you can use this – though if you want them to come and HELP you gun everybody down, you need a different mod)
Flashy(JoeR) - Advanced Needs 2 - Customizable Survival Mode (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/40440): A customizable “survival mode” that allows you to play with a character who needs to eat, drink, and sleep periodically without necessarily dealing with some of Survival Mode’s other stuff (namely, the lack of fast travel in my case). Comes with expansions for being a playable ghoul, food spoilage, and other activities if you’re into that, and a patch for “Campsite – Simple Wasteland Camping” so you can use the two together.
Sunshine Tidings – No Ghoul and No Corpse (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/47044): Will eventually remove ghoul and human corpses from Sunshine; assigns Professor Goodfeels protected status if he hasn't already been disabled
Croup Manor Waterfront Extended (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/47144): Adds another chunk to Croup Manor's building area so you can actually access the water on the nearby beach for purifiers and whatnot
CWSS Redux V4 – Craftable Working Showers Sinks Baths Toilets Urinals Kitchens Etc (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/14326): Adds craftable, usable bathroom equipment and some kitchen equipment in a separate workshop menu so the Sole Survivor, companions, and settlers can go to the toilet, shower, and have pretty kitchens
Vault-Tec Workshop Overhaul Redux (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/43643): Fixes some errors with the Vault-Tec DLC items for Vault 88 and adds newer, better versions for some other items (e.g., better lights, in three variations depending on computer specs)
Wearable Backpacks and Pouches (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/3258): Adds a backpack workbench and a variety of upgradable backpacks to the game (three files – standard, ballistic weave addon, power armor capacity addon)
Campsite – Simple Wasteland Camping (and HD Sleeping Bags) (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11734): Adds a book to Sanctuary (the root cellar) that allows you to make camping gear at the chem station and set up camp in the Commonwealth whenever you want
The Mobile Mechanic – Portable Workbenches and Junk Scrapping (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/18262/): Allows you to make a portable, customizable workbench for scrapping junk and in-game crafting anywhere
Atelier – Paint and sculpt (Unsupported) (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/36485): Allows you to make and mix paint, paint pictures (for the "Well Rested" XP bonus), and work on a sculpture; also has settler-ready versions to increase happiness in settlements. Unsupported and glitchy ("Well Rested" perk sound will play incessantly if you try to paint, with the animation popping up when you disengage from the easel – keeping this mainly for the look of the thing for Victor’s house)
Fallout Instrument Pack (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/46604): Adds four playable instruments to the game, along with a small (and unfortunately bit glitchy) quest to unlock the ability to craft them; also has two new instrument-themed weapons
New Recipes (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/12276): 60-ish new recipes added into the standard categories, with unique effects and healing (like new teas under Beverages)

Apple Trees 3.2 (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/40388): Adds an apple and pear orchard to the game near Vault 111, and a “Fruit Recipes” section to the cooking menu for apple and pear-based food; also you can grow apples and pears for food in settlements
Tales From The Commonwealth (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/8704): Extended quests and companions mod – features new characters, new locations, and new quests across the Commonwealth, along with three new companions (contains additional file for DLC commentary from the new companions)
Tales From The Commonwealth Visual Fixes (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/43974): Patch to fix some of the broken precombines and visual bugs from TFTC
Tales From The Commonwealth – FaceGen Data (For PhysOp or Vanilla) (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/45148): Patch to help provide face generation data for TFTC; vanilla file used
We Are The Minutemen (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/6443): Overhauls the Minutemen, giving Preston a new outfit, making patrols more common and more powerful as you level up, giving you a command table to make Minutemen, and cools down the frequency of radiant quests
Better Companions – No Conflicts (Accuracy Version) (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/24233): Improves companions – in particular, making them more accurate and better at sneaking
Settler and Companion Dialogue Overhaul (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/41785): Increases the variety of companion lines while adventuring; gives certain companions their own radiant quests; gives settlers more variety in what they say to you while visiting settlements (acknowledging you as Minutemen General, complaining less)

Settlers Of The Commonwealth (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/8704): Adds unique new settlers to the Commonwealth that you can recruit
Level 4 Merchants Improved (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/40747): Puts all the level 4 merchants you can find and recruit in the Dugout Inn for easier location; also assigns protected status to certain ones that might otherwise easily die (like the Vault-Tec Rep)
Squirrels of the Commonwealth (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/20027): Adds a variety of (surprisingly tough) squirrels; using the “docile” version that adds Garbage Squirrels but makes most squirrels run away if you shoot them
True Storms – Wasteland Edition (Thunder-Rain-Weather Redone) (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/4472): Improved weather, with more intense thunderstorms and whatnot; also has files for earlier sunsets, compatibility with Far Harbor and Nuka World, and (if you want, I didn’t) more dangerous Far Harbor fogs and Glowing Sea
Atomic Radio (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/8704): New radio station with original radio shows and commercials
Where I Am In The Game: Given Victor’s only level five, you’ve probably guessed I’ve only just started -- and you’d be right! Victor’s about five days into his adventures in the Commonwealth, and has spent that time mainly cleaning up Sanctuary and the Red Rocket, meeting Dogmeat and Preston, killing raiders, and molotoving and machine-gunning a Deathclaw to death. I’ve completed Out of Time and When Freedom Calls for quests, and I’m currently working on Sanctuary before moving onto The First Step. Next playsession, Victor and Codsworth are going to go visit the apple orchard on the other side of Vault 111 and get some apples for everyone! And probably fight a bear! :D What, the gang needs food, and I want to give them more variety than gourds and melons.
What Comes Next: While I hope to actually start the main plot a lot sooner than I did in my original attempt at playing, we’re definitely doing some Minutemen stuff first, plus exploring the general area around Sanctuary so I can pick up that “double meat” magazine. Think of it as Victor getting his hand in as he tries to figure out how to survive in this brave new world.
#fallout 4#sole survivor Victor#fallout of darkness#since what I do in this game is going to inform any writing I do for that#at the very least once I get Piper#I need to find a good place for Alice to 'spawn'#but yeah ran into issues restarted once again#then had to figure out my way around a crash at Concord#fortunately things seem to be working now#I will beat this game into submission with a baseball bat if I have to#because when I DO get to play it I enjoy it#it's just the glitchiness that gets to me sometimes#I don't get how people have hundreds of mods in this game#I'm genuinely worried about adding more to mine#though Advanced Needs 2 was a temptation I couldn't resist in the end#look I have all these cooking mods and camping stuff#I HAD to get a mod that gave me a reason to use them!#queued

Back at it again with this whole challenge stuff.
This Challenge is half “Survive this”, half Legacy, and based around the various stages the main group in the TV Show “The Walking Dead” went through. You don’t need to have watched it to play this challenge, but many requirements will feel arbitrary if you haven’t.
Since these aren’t really, uh, generations, I will refer to the individual parts of this challenge as “Stages”
Packs required:
Outdoor Retreat, Seasons, Eco Lifestyle, Get Together, City Living, Discover University, Get to Work
The Setup:
- You will need either Triplis’ “Kids Quit School” mod ot MCCC to make quitting school possible.
- Create your founder and any number of other survivors in CAS, Two of these additional survivors need to be children.
- Use your own physical dice or find an online dice roller, you will need that!
General Rules:
- It’s the Apocalypse, so buy mode is heavily restricted. You can’t just go to Ikea and buy new couch!
You will need to use the fabrication and handiness skills to make furniture! Some Random Events and generational rules may allow you to get stuff otherwise
- You may only cook with ingredients you have! If you play this after the release of Cottage Living, use the Lot Challenge!
- You will always play off the grid!
- The monetary cost of crafting is considered “materials”. You can "barter” for materials by using the selling table from City Living, or sell furniture and stuff you scavenged, thus “dismantling” it and salvaging it.
- Any children you have aside from the two you create in CAS automatically suffer a -2 penalty to all rolls they perform, on account of being children.
- Randomized townies you encounter are generally considered zombies. (or WaLkErS of you don’t wanna use the evil Z word). If they engage you in conversation, consider it an attack and roll a d20, adding 1 for every two levels of fitness the Sim in question has. Below a 15, they get injured in the scuffle and are out of comission for the rest of the day. Below a 10, they get infected and die
- Pregnant and elderly Sims cannot perform any chores or other survival tasks and suffer the same -2 penalty as children!
- Every ingame week, roll on the random events table!
- Play with normal lifespan!
Stage 1: The Atlanta Survivors Camp
You just survived the Apocalypse’s initial outbreak and you are settling with a small group outside a large city. However, calamity soon threatens your little sanctuary.
- Move your household anywhere with freerealestate, then take a vacation on the campground lot in Granite Falls.
- Set your money to 5k and start your grind. When you can no longer extend your vacation, your camp gets overrun and you are forced to flee. Roll Fitness checks for each member of your group and disable/kill accordingly.
- If your founder dies in this, appoint a new one from the surviving sims
Stage 2: Hershel’s Farm
After getting out of the overrun camp and having a little happening at the CDC, you are back on the road and lose one of your two kids in a run-in with a horde. Worse, even, your other kid gets shot and is badly injured! Thankfully, you are offered help by a small family on a nearby farm.
- Kill of one of your two CAS-created kids. Sorry, Sophia!
- The other CAS-created kid is now injured for the rest of thi stage and can’t help you out or build skills.
- Move your sims to one of the lots south of the Chalet in Windernburg (Or Henford on Bagley if Cottage Living is out!) and build a little farmhouse big enough to accommodate four sims, with a small vegetable garden and 2 power generating and 3 water generating items.
-Create four Sims that “own” the farm and help you out. One of them has to be an elder!
- Two weeks into this stage, the farm will, unfortunately, get overrun and also set on fire. Do your fitness rolls for everyone and run for your life.
Stage 3: The Prison
Again, you are on the run, but there’s a little shimmer of light at the end of the tunnel - an abandoned prison! Now, you just need to like... reclaim it.
- Build a Prison, or download one from the gallery!
- Cheat one of your sim pregnant, if you don’t have a pregnancy yet.
- Reclaim the prison! Make Fitness rolls for each level + the outside.
- After your pregnant Sim gives birth, kill her. Sorry, Lori!
- Create a rival 8-sim household and put your sims in a club, and their rivals in one too. Have “fight (other club)” as one of the activities, then have them visit you and... start... a gathering... ;)
Stage 4 The Prison 2, Electric Boogaloo
You defeated Woodbury! ... or did you? Well, you don’t really have time to deal with it right now, because there is a deadly strain of influenza wrecking your community.
- Start placing ads for roommates. Those are the former Woodbury people you took in!
- Every Time someone gets one of the GTW illnesses, roll your d20. Below a 10, they die to the sickness. Kill them, and roll fitness for one of your household sims, since the dead turn into walkers!
- Three weeks into this stage, your friend, the Governor of Woodbury, comes back with a fresh new group he roped into his nonsense. Roll Fitness checks and book it. (also kill the Governor. RIP in pieces)
Stage 5: Terminus
From bad to worse, you’re on the run again, and split up this time. Divided we fall, huh? Good thing there’s this totally not ominous set of markers leading you to a place called Terminus. I’m sure nothing bad will happen there.
- Split your Household and surviving roommates and pop them all into different empty lots. Play a week with each of them (aging off here, this is meant to happen simultaneously!) and roll on the random events table until you have eight sims left in total. Hope you weren’t attached to any of them.
- Put them back into the same household again, and create yet another rival club to beat up. That rival club is Terminus. Surprise, the group with the name meaning “Death” was bad!
- Switch to your Terminus household and “invite” your sims over, then lock them in the basement, true sims style. Go downstairs and start a club gathering. Keep an eye on them, every time someone loses a fight, kill them. Do this until you have either 5 good guys left or all of Terminus is dead.
Stage 6: Alexandria and The other blokes
You got away from the humanitarians and were invited into the community of Alexandria. Thing are finally looking up again!
- Move to a 50x50 lot and build a little “village” with gardens, energy production and everything you might need.
- Create two more 8-sim-households on similar situations and create clubs for them, with the activity to be friendly with yours! These two households will be Hilltop and The Kingdom.
- Make one of the Evergreen Harbor Community Spaces a marketplace and frequent it!
- Stay in this stage for four weeks!
Stage 7: The Saviour War
Things just couldn’t stay okay, could they? You ticked off a horrible cult-of-personality-type organization called the Saviours, who now start their reign of terror against you.
- Create another household and club meant to be mean to you, Hilltop and the kingdom. Make their Leader a magnificent bastard and give that one plot armor. Narrative Immunity!
- Host a little multi-club gathering and roll a d8 twice. Look at your own household portrait lineup and kill two of your sims whose portrait position corresponds to your rolls.
- Take your strongest fighter, aka the highst fitness stat, aka Daryl Dixon and put them into their own household, to take them out of the equation for a while. They’re the Saviours’ prisoner now!
- Congrats, you have been promoted to vassal state. The Saviours demand five of every crop you produce. Don’t hav enough to feed your people? Sucks to be you!
- Stay in this stage for 4 weeks, then bring back your poor fighter, and kill off half of the Saviours, add the rest to your household and Kingdom & Hilltop. Their Leader must survive! Keep them in your basement from now on and visit them regularly to gloat.
Stage 8: The Whisperer War
Finally, some stability. Oh, whats that? New enemy faction, and this one of even worse? Fantastic.
- Cease communication and trade with Hilltop & Kingdom for two weeks, Then hold a big party!
- ...during said party, kill 12 total sims from each faction.
- Create a new rival faction called the Whisperers. Make their two leaders, Alpha & Beta, level 10 in fitness.
- Hold weekly brawls with the whisperers. Kill every fight loser, but replenish the Whisperers losses. There’s no end to their forces!
- Give Alpha a daughter and take her in after your first clash with them.
- When you resume trade, roll a D20 every time you travel away from your lot. Below a 10, your travel party gets attacked by the Whisperers! Roll Fitness checks for every Siim traveling.
- Remember the Saviour leader? Yeah, they’re doing better. Have them befried one of your household’s children, and gradually integrate them into your community.
- After an additional 4 weeks of this, send your redeemed Saviour leader over to the Whisperers and befriend them. They’re a spy now!
- Survive another week, then ply s the Whisperers and attack Hilltop! Move the survivors into your main household.
- After this attack, your spy strikes and kills Alpha. Put them back into your household, then gear up for a big fight!
- Cheat “Roughhousing ecouraged” in your NAPs, then gather all surviving characters along with the Whisperers and fight!
Did you survive this? Well, until season 11 comes out, that’s as far as we go. You can continue playing with the Random Events and general ruleset!
RANDOM EVENTS:
D20:
1. There’s a drought. Sell all your stored water and reset your money back down

AU where instead of Jaune having a semblance that turns him into a harem protagonist, his semblance let’s him turn OTHER people into harem protagonists.
// Yes. Good. Time to suffer Blake. 8D - mod lilac
Title: JAUNE IM GOING TO KILL YOU
“You! You did this!”
Oh crap. The last person he wanted to see was here, and here he was still stuck in a hospital bed from the Battle of Beacon, unable to escape or run away. He couldn’t help sweating as the dark-haired faunus approached, hand pressed against her abdomen, and then leaned forward without doing anything.
For a moment, he hoped. And then the hands around his neck proved that hope was nothing more than a four letter word for lie. Immediately, the other girl started tightening her grip and shaking him against his bed, head banging against his pillow.
“When I said it might be interesting to become a Ninjas of Love protagonist, I didn’t mean you using your Semblance on me in real life,” Blake screamed angrily, “Do you know what sort of month I’ve had because of you?”
“Acck. Blake. I need to breath. Blake,” he said as he patted the other girls’ arms to mark his submission. He wasn’t actually getting hurt, but as he knew from living with seven older sisters, sometimes the feeling of getting revenge justice was enough.
Otherwise, if they don’t think you’ve suffered enough, that’s when your life gets miserable.
“I thought everyone around me was going crazy! Everyone proposing to me out of the blue,” Blake screamed, “And they were!” She loosened her grip on Jaune’s neck as she took deep breathes, “Then Pyrrha came to visit me, and since she still seemed sane, I told her what’s been happening to me. Guess what I found out. Apparently Jaune Arc has a semblance that turns people into harem protagonists!”
“What did I do to you to deserve this?!” Her hands twitched again as if ready to go for another round of strangle the blond.
His hands immediately went up to prevent such a thing from happening.
“Blake. If you choke me to death, this is going to keep happening.”
“Jaune. If you don’t stop it now, I will throttle you and then run home to Kuo Kuana.”
“It can’t be that bad. What, you got proposed to by three or four peopl-”
Blake’s eyebrow and ears began twitching.
“...I take it that’s not what happened.”
“Three or four?!”
“...Maybe you want to tell me what’s going on before you extend my hospital stay,” Jaune asked carefully. The girl glared at him before taking a deep breath.
"It all started with Sun...”
=================
Sun:
“Hey Blake. I was thinking about you, and I got you this,” Sun smiled, rubbing his head sheepishly. An amethyst necklace, beautifully displaced inside a red package, laid in his other hand, shining brilliantly.
The sparkle - the shine - they caught her eye immediately. It glittered and caught her attention in a way that really tickled her, but she couldn’t help but glance at the package the necklace was in. And that dropped cold water onto her appreciation. She frowned.
She lifted her gaze to meet Sun’s.
“Sun?”
“Yes?” Sun asked excitedly.
“Did you steal this?”
Sun averted his eyes as he continued speaking confidently.
“Why I’d nev-”
“The security tag is still on it.”
“-er think about giving you something I haven’t stolen myself.”
Blake just glared at the boy who quickly excused himself.
=================
“I didn’t think much of it at first,” Blake said, “But random people started - out of the blue might I add - propositioning me while the Vytal Festival was going on - especially Shade Academy. I just thought they were an overly forward bunch cause they were part of the whole “live hard, live free” crew. ”
Blake stared darkly at Jaune, who just slid lower into his hospital bed.
“But then my team got involved.”
=================
Ruby and Yang
“Blake~”
“Blake!”
“Ruby? Yang?” she turned around for just a moment, only to be immediately accosted by the two sisters. Ruby hung to her right arm, and Yang hung onto her left arm. They spoke at nearly the same time.
“You’re looking incredibly dashing today, Blake, “ Yang said with a wink.
“You’re so pretty today,” Ruby said in awe, “That is not to say you’re not prett-” The awkward girl trailed off before finding a way to quickly change the subject.
“Stop copying me, Yang,” Ruby said with a pout.
“I said it first,” the other girl grinned.
Uhhh. What was going on? First Sun, then the random people, and now Ruby and Yang.
“So what about going on a ride with me and Bumblebee through the town?”
“No, Blake’s going to go with me to Vytal’s Weapons Exhibit, not on a boring ride with you.”
“What’s so great about looking at a bunch of old weapons?”
“You take that back! Can’t be any worse than just driving around boring Vale.”
“Wel-”
Maybe she should stop this before things get worse.
“I already have plans - uh - to stay in Beacon and curl up near the fireplace and read an interesting book that I recently purchased,” Blake said carefully as she lightly twisted out of the sisters’ grips.
Ruby glanced over at Yang, and Yang at Ruby.
“Why does that sound really similar to the words you said to us on the first day we met?” Ruby said.
“Well, she was probably just saying that just to get rid of you.”
“No, she was telling you to go away. She liked me when we first met, “ Ruby said smugly as she pointed her thumb at herself.
“Let’s ask then. Hey, who were you telling to g- No. I thought of a better question. Who do you like more, Ruby or me?”
As a connoisseur of horrible romance novels, she knew that question was a horrible trap. She needed to use all her tactical skills to escape this situation.
Step 1. Stall.
“I-I-I like you both,” Blake stuttered out, already seeing the dissatisfaction on both girl’s faces.
“That’s a copou-”
“C’mon, Bla-”
Step 2. RUN.
She then created a clone to distract them as she crashed out of the nearby window. A pair of affronted screams could be heard as she ran for the treeline.
Sorry, clone.
=================
“I’ve been camping in the Emerald Forest to avoid them,” Blake said frazzled, “Do you know what it’s like to be the subject of sisters trying to compete for affection?”
“Uhhh yeah,” Jaune laughed, “I have seven older sisters, you know.”
“Why would you do this to me then?”
“Ahaha. Sorry, but you were the one who expressed interest in the life of a harem protagonist.”
Blake’s gaze moving between his pillow and his face probably wasn’t a good sign.
“Uhh. So that’s it?” Jaune said quickly.
“No! It affected my entire team!”
=================
Weiss:
“Uhhh Weiss. You didn’t have to prepare all this,” Blake said, not quite able to stop her drooling. In the middle of the Emerald Forest was a small seafood banquet, and to someone that had been living with her own subpar cooking skills for a week, it was a godsend.
“It was my pleasure. It’s been a long time since we could just sit together like this,” Weiss said daintily, sipping her tea on the table she prepared, complete with cloth drapings.
“Yeah, especially since Ruby and Yang seem to have gone insane.”
“How so?”
“The last time I went back to Beacon, Ruby tried feeding me her home cooking, and I nearly died from the taste. Yang taunted her because her own cooking was miles better, and now Ruby’s on a quest to improve her cooking and making me the taste tester.”
Weiss winced sympathetically before smiling. “Well, you’re here now. Just take a seat and just enjoy the food.”
“Thanks,” Blake said as she sat down, grabbing a couple dishes and devouring them as fast she could endure.
It was then she felt a peculiar feeling against her calf. Thinking it was just a bug, she just swung her leg, and the sensation went away.
But after a couple more seconds of dining, she felt it reappear - and it was now on her knee now.
Immediately, she lifted her head from the dishes to stare at Weiss, who had an innocent smile on her face as though butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth.
“Weiss?”
“Yes, Blake?”
“Is thaaaa...”
Warning bells started ringing in her head; that foot now on her thigh was reaching just a tad bit higher inch by inch. And immediately, she stood up, face burning like it’s been out of the sun.
“SorryWeissIrealizeIhavetogocatthefeedBye!” she spilled out in a panic as she ran like a Goliath was after her.
As she entered into the woods, her ears caught Weiss’s parting words.
“Wait Blak-. Does that mean Blake isn’t into this sort of stuff then?”
=================
“As it so happens,” Blake said rubbing the space between her brow, “a couple of my Ninjas of Love books have gone missing from underneath my bed mattress. The one with that dinner scene in particular.”
“Sounds like you read some really raunch-”
Blake slightly reddened and sent Jaune a glare.
“Uhh, sorry. So that’s gotta be it then.”
“No. Because guess who also has a sister?”
“Weiss has a sister?”
Blake sighed.
=================
Winter:
“I wanted to see the girl who had my sister’s affections,” the white-haired girl who looked a lot like Weiss said calmly. She had cornered her inside a cave, out-maneuvered her to the point where she had to hide - and still found her.
Winter’s hand lifted her chin. “You really....are pretty.”
Her face burned red at the affectionate gesture.
Shadow.
Run.
=================
“That doesn’t sound like a confession though, “ Jaune said skeptically.
“With the way my month’s been going,” Blake said dryly, “you really want to bet on that?”
Jaune shook his head laughing nervously.
“No bet. No bet,” Jaune waved his hand.
“Besides she was part of the cavalry during the Battle of Beacon.”
=================
Adam:
“Adam, I’ve never thought about you that way,” Blake choked out, the pain through her gut making her curl onto the ground.
“What! You can’t deny me. You’re mine. And you always will be. And if I can’t have you....”
Her once mentor’s blade shimmered in the flames, pointing towards her neck as she struggled to ready her Semblance.
“Hey! Someone’s trying to kill Blake!” someone screamed out. It sounded a lot like Yang.
A blur of fire and ice practically detonated the spot Adam was standing in, sending him to the wall opposite to her charred worse than Ruby’s cooking. Familiar figures dropped in through the roof, took one look at her, and then charged towards her assailer with unmatched ferocity.
Adam proceeded to get his ass beat by the rest of Team RWBY, Sun, Winter, and Cinder.
=================
“Wait wait wait. Cinder? How does she enter into the picture?” Jaune said incredulously.
“Apparently she’s the mastermind behind everything,” Blake shrugged, “According to her confession, she took one look at me and realized all the wrongs she’d done and wanted to work hard to atone.”
Jaune couldn’t help but stare disbelievingly at that.
“Winter’s boss couldn’t believe it either,” Blake pinched the bridge of her nose.
“I guess all’s well that ends well. You got saved, Vale’s still standing. All of us are alive,” Jaune laughed.
“Yeah, except for this little problem of me having a harem!” Blake growled.
“Wait. Where’s Blake?” said a voice outside the room.
“She’s awake?!” said another voice.
“She shouldn’t be walking around like that. Should be resting with the best medical care Vale could offer.” said a third.
“Crap. They’re here,” Blake said frantically, glancing over at a nearby window. “Fix this, Jaune, or you’re not going to like what happens next.”
Opening the sliding window, the girl dove through and quickly skedaddled towards the treeline of the forest that was becoming her home.
Meanwhile....
Jaune felt a foreboding feeling as his room door slid open, and the stares of three panicking members of team RWBY settled on him.
“Jaune, have you seen Bla-” Ruby said before her gaze locked onto something at his side.
Jaune glanced over to see what Ruby was looking at - the open window.
“So, Jaune, what do you think you were doing with Blake alll alone?” Yang said with a smile that wasn’t a smile.
“Ehehe. Nothing. I’ve just woken up. I didn’t even see her today.”
“Really? I don’t think you’re telling us the truth,” Weiss said calmly, “Ruby?”
“Yes?”
“Close the door.”
Sweating, Jaune clandestinely started pressing the nurse call button under his sheets, hoping someone would come before these three had their way with him.

hi there, so in love with your works. Seriously *bows head* thank you all so much. If its not too bad, I wanted to know how everyone in DAI from the advisors to the companions would react to a teen inquisitor who is brilliant at cooking? Yet the inquisitor has no idea about people from Leliana's agents to everyone else pinching her food.
Cassandra: She thinks she is being sneaky and subtle, insisting that because of their age and responsibility it is better for their young herald to stay close to camp and not take a watch when they leave Skyhold. There will be time for that when they are older, and bearless of a burden. If they will take on the difficulty of closing the rifts, then the most they should have to do is help around the camp, and after a long day nothing is appreciated more than hot food.
No one contradicts her, and the Seeker is left to silently congratulate herself on enjoying the absolutely divine way that their young leader has with rabbit and Hinterland herbs without making the Inquisitor feel worthless.
(And if everyone else lets her take a lead on that because she has mattered the speech, well...it’s really good stew.)
Varric: Damn, this is the stuff. Its like being back in the Hanged Man, except the bread is trying to actively strange him, and the pies aren’t staring back and..
It’s nothing like the Hanged Man, really, but the sheer comfort of phenomenal food at the end of the world? The same kind of warmth as sitting with your friends as the city goes to shit and laughing at a joke no one else gets. Their young protagonist has a good skill set on their hands, and If Varric’s writing table moves a little closer to the door into the kitchens, well.
Keeps the ink from freezing.
Solas: It had been a passing comment about the frilly cakes in Val Royeaux, some exchange of banter with Varric about time passing and philosophy and the unending banal that one takes on to keep the miles from turning monotonous. He’d had no idea the Herald was listening, and so it makes it all the more touching when- after waqving to them as they take on the climb to the library- he comes down from his painter’s perch to find three petit fours waiting for him on his table.
It drives home that they are a thoughtful young person, so different from the rest of this world, and if he uses the sweetness of the frosting and cake to drive away the twinge of guilt that his plans still move at speed....it does not take away from their talent, or their kindness. He will be content with that.
Blackwall: Food is food, particularly on the road. Hard tack and sausage has kept many a soldier alive, and he is the last person you’d hear complaining that he can’t put his pinky out eating meat from a spit. Luxury is for soft handed nobles, not men and women striving to make the world better. Let them have the best cuts-- Blackwall would starve before he robs true heroes of a hot meal.
And yet the first time he comes back from gathering firewood to find that the reason the inquisitor was tying so much string around the side of a wild hog was to make a porketta, and he got a good whiff of roasted pork slowly spinning in it’s own drippings....It would be a harder sacrifice. It made the Inquisitor so happy to watch their work be enjoyed and help people though, that it would the crueler not to take some.
And if he dreams about the tender meat and crispy skin all perfectly seasoned and roasted for days afterwords, that’s no one’s business of his own.
Vivienne: She cuts an imposing figure, and for the Madame de Fer is quite proud. It has cowed more than one recalcitrant novice into place with only a long legged stride alone, and for that she is a legend in her circle. Of course the stories do not tell how she would never be cruel or unfeeling to a child, and particularly not one far from home and frightened of every shadow like the ones that the Templars rip from families and depost in a new and strange place.
She expects a similar attitude from the young Herald, particularly after her (rahter stunning) entrance on their first meeting. And perhaps they were a bit overawed, but before it could become something she needs to address Lady Vivienne is pleasantly surprised to find their young leader coming to her for advice from a letter from some minor Orlesian lord. And while surely it will be up to Josephine to craft the response Vivienne is delighted that the Inquisitor wants her input.
That they went to the effort to bring beignet’s with them as a bribe...For that, she will give them every secret of the author’s well kept family scandals.
Sera: Their Bitty Herald can make cookies better than Sera can make cookies, but they aren’t the kind that you throw at people as a prank or that come out all rock hard and brown and blegh. They are the soft gooey kind that make you want to steal the whole plate and eat them on your roof but also throw the plate at their Quizznitor because....because cookies!
She will trade pranks for cookies, who ever her Jenny in training wants to see doused in water or flour or...or...pudding! Pudding for cookies is the most fair.
Dorian: Southern food is bland and tasteless, and Skyhold’s resident ‘Vint will endure it for as long as he must to help defeat this ancient magister and get things on the right track. And the beer isn’t the worst, much to his own dismay as his delicate palette accepts the swill. But the food is all friend or brown or smothered in gravy, and he’d just as soon not.
So when they finally stop for the night under the endless web of branches that keep the sky from meeting the Fallow Mire, the pond water full of dead people sounds more appealing than one more night of Varric’s nug stew. Which makes the fact their valiant young Herald just ladled him a bowl of Minestrone so much more impressive. Their shrugged explanation of ‘I’ve always wanted to make it and the merchants had actual artichokes on the way here and you can tell me if I got it right’ does nothing to take away the warmth and delight the gesture brings to him.
It would be like coming home, if anyone had ever made sucha rustic and delightful soup for him without strings and hooks attached in Tevinter, and for the first time on the whole mission Dorian isn’t chilled the rest of the night.
The Iron Bull: He isn’t sure which one of the Chargers talks to the Herald (lies, it was Krem), but one night half the fortress is piled into the Rest and the Inquisitor is waiting with four bowls of unreadable origin. The explanation that these are four kinds of curry and each is hotter than the last is the best gift he’s ever gotten, but the wager of a single coin (he won’t steal more than that from the kid) that the Iron Bull can’t finish them for the spice is even better.
Three hours later finds him chewing on one of Stitche’s poultices for a burnt tongue (and throat and stomach and probably ass in a few hours) but one coin richer and hoarse voiced from the roaring laughter he’d gotten after a straight face convinced Krem to try the last bown and he’d literally wept.
Good times.
Cole: The nug is made of bread, and it isn’t a nug but it looks like one. And it’s wearing a tiny hat! ‘Roll the dough out, has to be thin so it rises to keep the shape, he likes nugs so much and doesn’t ask for anything and Sera bet me I couldn’t.’ You made it for me. Thank you! He says hello back!
Josephine: When their ambassador hears that not only does the Herald have an aunt who married into a merchant house in Antiva but the inquisitor spent a summer there and learned to make authentic Paella, Lady Montiliyet’s mind is a whirlwind of plans and thoughts of just the appropriate bribe that would spare her from getting down on her knees and begging a fifteen year old to make her favorite dish. Eventually Leliana gets tired of little doodles of steaming bowls on all their meeting notes and sends a raven three windows over, Josie, really with an ‘anonymous’ request to make it and leave it in the war room in exchange for a trade of equal value.
And when Josephine finds out that all the Inquisitor wants is the creepy love letters from young Orlesian nobles to go away, she takes great delight in her strongly worded letters to their mothers in between heaping mouthfuils of white wine rice and shrimp and the warm bite of saffron that will always be home.
Leliana: It is written on no report or schedule, and her agents will go to the grave without speaking of it to another soul, but the Inquisition’s spymaster has a man in the kitchens whose only role is to fetch firewood and water and try to one day recover his shattered after a terrible mission in her service. It’s easy work for a man who gave so much, and somewhere he is able to do good work until the tremors and the nightmares stop. The kitchen staff is kind to him and treat him well, but his true mission is known only to himself and his mistress.
The second the herald starts making Cassoulet he is to fetch her immediately. She won’t be caught in a meeting and miss her favorite food again, damn it.
Cullen: It’s hard for the Inquisitor’s commander to be at ease with someone who is both a child and at least nominally his leader. They are someone he wants to protect, but also the key to stopping the world and someone who must be on the front lines. That is gift alone to the world, but when the rumors begin to swirl that they will also go out of their way to make things that people like it brings a small smile to his face. The world would be better if had more people like the herald in it.
Especially if they could all make little crocks of shepards pie like the one that sits on his desk after a day of long meetings and a lyrium migraine. That might make everything right again.

3gumi headcanons part 2
starting off the blog with our favourite group! just some separate hcs about the boys. find part 1 with saburo, dice and hitoya HERE.
RIO
He’s great with children! Rio’s patience is near unbreakable so he’s totally fine with kids climbing all over him. He knows how to tone down stories, but he’s told kids about ‘a knight on his quest’ as his self inserts because he’s not the most creative. He’s pretty happy that Jyuto told him that he has a good voice for telling bedtime stories.
Rio’s pretty well read. With a lot of time at camp and trying to keep his trail on the down low, he reads a lot of theoretical books. Stuff about philosophies of life are interesting to him. [ If you haven’t listened to Private Time, Rio gets pretty deep while looking up at the stars. ]
His love language is through his cooking. It’s how his major taught him to enjoy life, so that’s how he shows appreciation to those he cares about. Rio is aware that Samatoki and Jyuto are a little scared of his food, but he truly appreciates them trying it out. He’ll stop with the spiders when they’re actually brave enough to tell him... or they’ll just forget about what they eat one day.
DOPPO
He doesn’t have hobbies. Doppo knows that he’s a boring person and doesn’t talk much during conversation about himself. He’s not exactly sure when’s the last time he had fun asides from the apps on his phone that he only downloads for a week so he doesn’t get too invested.
“The last time I did physical exercise was uh....” He always draws a blank whenever Hifumi asks him this. Still, Doppo just doesn’t gain weight easily, which annoys Hifumi even more. The most exercise he’s actually done is lifting heavy boxes in the office but that’s all.
Doppo legitimately despises going to office karaoke night. Of course, everyone wants him to show off since he’s in the DRB, but it’s not like he can sing much since he’s always listening to instrumentals. You’re gonna have to get him very drunk if you want him up there. For some reason, the women at the office love him screaming more than the guys who actually sing well.
REI
A man well known at his favorite bars. Rei isn’t that much of a fancy drinker, but he’s there for a good chat. People say he’s a ‘good listener’ since he doesn’t talk too much about himself, but that’s just how things are for him. His advice to those with problems is usually ‘do what’ll help you first before others’.
Along that line, in his younger days, he’d hang about the streets of his favourite spots to make sure people would make it home alright. It’s not his business to get into fights, but he sure as hell ain’t letting them start on his watch. It just so happens that the ladies loved having a big strong man take ‘em home.
“I’m not an animal person”, Rei says, despite having an old queen of a cat. Shiori ( 栞 ) was a kitten when he found her, and would always like to rest on his arm while he was reading, hence she’s his ‘little bookmark’. He always tells people that she doesn’t like them despite her being really affectionate so they think she loves them.

Fallout 4 Mods
I recently started up Fallout 4 once again and decided to go all in with mods.
Mods increase the replay value of a game exponentially. Most of these here are lore friendly but a few would be considered cheating.
These are all for Playstation 4 so if you have one and wanna head into the Commonwealth again try some of these out!
Also if you have any you think I should check out (godmode or even silly mods) let me know!
Farming the Wastes
Kane 51
I'm super big into farming simulations and I was disappointed how few crops you can grow in Fallout 4’s base building. It doesn’t even make sense lorewise- why can’t you grow your own hubflowers or plant wild corn and mutfruit?
Now I can grow the garden of my dreams and it even counts toward your food yield. If you’re big into RP like I am you could have little victory gardens of tatoes and gourds in town decorated with flowers then dedicate an entire settlement to farming, big giant stretches of corn and razorgrain as far as the built allotment will permit. Or several brahmin providing dung for your jet lab. To each their own.
Improved BOS redux uniforms and Improved BOS Redux
THJT-9
These two go hand in hand and they’re by the same author so I’m putting them together. The East Coast Brotherhood of Steel seems kind of loosey goosey with their rank and uniforms so these two mods fix that. Everyone wears the correct uniform, rank paint on their power armor plus Proctor Teagan actually makes good on his comment that once you move up in the ranks you will have access to better items. Plus they’re all named to keep them nice and neat in your inventory. Makes more sense for a military organization to...you know, be organized.
Better Sanctuary Bridge Fix
Jackcriscione1
A simple mod, fixes the busted bridges in Sanctuary, even the small one over the creek by the vault. I hate how you can’t fix it in game, don’t want a caravaneer falling into the creek. That’s a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Graphic t shirts with leg armor
Tivoli
Another simple one- one of many like it but easy peasy. You can wear leg armor with your Graphic T Shirt from the Creation Club. That’s it. That’s the mod.
Tweaks- Custom Barber and Surgery Chair
ChaoticStreams
Change your character’s appearance free of charge. This is cool to do if you decide to go Raider or Child of Atom and wanna shave your character’s head and have them drop fifty pounds. Or if you’re bored and want to try out new hairstyles. Also you don’t need a settler to operate it.
Rich vendors complete 5k
Zanythos
Vendors now have five thousand bottlecaps. Now you can sell all that surplus water to fund your Med X and Jet habit in one go. What? I can quit whenever I want.
Ps4 STS all in one
3lric
Short for Scrap That Settlement it...does exactly what it says on the tin. No rotting leaves in my fucking kitchen. No ratty posters, no growing vines. Still that post apocalyptic look but it looks like someone is trying to make it look livable. The trash you can scrap even yields useful stuff and it’s weirdly satisfying to clean up an old house. I’d get this one for the relaxation factor alone.
Danse Is Clean
Gwennovynne
Another exactly what it says on the tin. Danse, you’re an officer, please have some decorum and wash your face? There’s a lot like this but this one doesn’t muck with Danse’s looks at all, just takes a wet towel to that pretty mug.
Maxson Is Not A Cartoon
Drhamm
Get rid of Elder Maxson’s ugly pubic beard and give him a nice scruffy beard a la Aragorn son of Arathorn. God, those cheekbones. He actually looks like his true age of twenty. I’m all about men who are dedicated to sincere beard growing but Maxson’s vanilla beard just sucks. Do yourself a favor and get him this one.
A better Cait
Wictoriously
A mod to change a character’s appearance that makes sense!? In MY RPG?! This one makes Cait a more buff, unkempt beauty type. More natural looking, no fuck ugly makeup and she looks like she’s a drug addicted pit fighter.
Danse No X01
Ash1597
It never sat well with me that Danse just happened to find a full set of this rare armor. I thought it would make more sense that he goes without armor just because it’s less conspicuous or maybe have a little quest where you find armor for him? I don’t know but this mod fits with my little headcanon that Danse keeps a lower profile after Blind Betrayal. Absolutely not because I want to stare at his ass.
Ps4 ocdecorator
Ethreon
Okay this is the big one. I love decorating. I hate the insane physics on video games. This is a godsend- put whatever decoration you want wherever you please. I never knew how important this was until I got this mod. Everything, every tiny item is available and if you don’t have it you can build one with the proper components. Decorate your kitchen, place handcuffs and oil in your sex dungeon, scatter components about a work table, anything you could possibly want. Even one off items like the MILA and MacCready’s Wooden Soldier will stay where you put them forever.
Simple Camping 2.0
ANDREWCX
This is another useful addition to immersion nuts. Throw down a cooking fire, build a tent, fix your stuff, have private adult fun times with your romanced companion under the stars.
Separate Coats
ANDREWCX
Man this guy makes good mods. Separate coats for when you think everyone should be wearing Maxsons’s Battlecoat because fuck you, that’s why. Also the bomber jackets. You can also armor them. They look really cool over the Graphic T Shirts, by the way.
Unlock Ballistic Weave
ANDREWCX
Bit cheaty, but what it says on the tin. Don’t wanna kiss Railroad ass? Get ballistic weave right out the gate. You can roleplay that your double agent brought the information back to their true faction.
Thanks to all the modders I mentioned, I wanted to give them a shout out- the unsung heroes of the fandom!

Rest of the final week of current program & starting some new stuff.
-
Mar. 13
I woke up after 1PM.
Did some dishes before doing today’s workout.
First, today’s DD. 2′ chest squeeze with EC. I forget if I’ve had to do his one for a whole 2′, but oof. That took some digging in, especially in the las ~30″ of it. Got to trembling from fatigue and occasionally paced a bit as distraction. But mission accomplished, there.
Last, Chapter 58 of AoP. First section was traveling, 24TP. Done at Level 2, as high knees, and in one go. Was a bit of a challenge loading things that way. But manageable.
Workout proper was done at Level 3 (7 sets, 20 push-ups per set.) I definitely savored the 2′ rest time. Had a brief bit of doubt whether I could maintain Level 3, but happy I managed. Admittedly push-ups weren’t very refined and counted holds a bit fast. No less a challenge.
Picked up some iced coffee and spent time updating some logs/archives. Keep falling behind on that tool, keep recognizing this as a sign things Are Not Going Well. But anyways...
I did make another Hello Fresh meal, today. Southwest plant-based protein over rice. A pretty tasty recipe. I think I’m getting a bit of a hang of handling this plant-based protein stuff, in cooking.
Spent rest of day on the usual stuff.
Got to bed around the same time as yesterday, in the red zone.
-
Mar. 14
I woke up around 11AM.
Did a bit of the usual before starting on my exercise...
First, today’s DD. 40 push kicks with EC (20/20). A fun little exercise, nothing too flashy.
(After an interlude of distractions...)
Last, Chapter 59 of AoP. Looks like yesterday, I traveled to the wrong camp location - so I made the first thing I did for the chapter was traveling the 25TP from where I was and where I needed to be. Level 2, as high knees. I split this into 15+10.
Did the workout proper at Level 3 (5 sets, 4 push-ups per defined combos). I went for max rest.Push-ups got a bit sloppy and I did get to feeling it.. But it wa ultimately manageable work!
After hitting the showers and sketching a future art project idea, I spent the rest of night on the usual.
I got to bed a little earlier than yesterday, still in the red zone.
-
Mar. 15
I woke up around 10AM
Did a bit of the usual before getting to a psychiatrist appointment. Went okay, aired out a thing and was met with understanding/receptivity. I still think my meds are staining a bit - but hopefully getting back to one-on-one therapy will help.
After getting home, doing some fic reading, and whatnot, got in my exercise.
First, today’s DD. 3′ overhead punches with EC. I counted 382 punches thrown in the duration, happy I managed to stay over 2/sec at that. Very enjoyable exercise.
Last, Chapter 60 of the Age of Pandora Program. Like last time, I went for Morse’s Plan, figured that’d be a fun thing to test against my previous run of the program.
Lotta basic burpees and squats, but unlike last time I managed Level 3 instead of 2 (7 instead of 5 sets). It was still pretty intense, but not quite as brutal as it was for me a year into this journey, yay for progress (definitely dig what a difference going at this stuff has made in the last 5 years...)! \o/
I then made today’s Hello Fresh meal. Pasta primavera in lemon Parmesan sauce. I thought this was pretty tasty.
Spent rest of night on the usual stuff.
I got to bed obscenely late, in the red zone.
-
Mar. 16
I woke up around noon.
Spent a few hours on: getting iced coffee, doing dishes, breaking down some boxes, and organizing some cookware that I recently decided on ordering.
After that and some of the usual peppered in, did exercise.
First, today’s DD. 40 plank rotations with EC. Manageable - took a bit of focus to maintain balance for all of it. Did get a little bit of fatigued, but doable.
Second, Day 1 of the Square One Program. This is a Level 1 Program - so I’m treating it as gentle strength-training and warm-up for the next part of docket. The load was light enough that I modded UP (not using a chair assist) exercises, did things at Level 3, and nixed the rest periods. We’ll see how well I may maintain this - but don’t anticipate issues there.
Last, Day 1 of the Reboot Program. Level 2 Program (cardio-centric), definitely a good deal more intensive than prior for it, considering this the meat of my exercise plan. Did this at Level 3 again, but kept to max rest (did all the hidden burpees, a tiny bit tough on the knees today.)
Spent rest of night on the usual, clothes shopping, and jotting down some more iZ!AU notes.
I got to bed a few hours earlier than yesterday, but still in the red.
-
Mar. 17
I woke up around 11AM.
Went to Seeking Safety Group again, today. Twas alright made some writing notes while teir. Thought about whether I could have the time afterwards to run out to a convenience store while I waited on pick-up - but didn’t do that.
Once I got back home, I got going on my exercise.
First, today’s DD. 50 back leg raises with EC (25/25). Did things as a balance variation. It was nice given how crampy my right hamstrings/glutes were feeling for some unknown reason.
Second, Day 2 of the SOP. Level 3, no rest. Arm work, i kept my arms up for all of the sets and in between them. Got a bit more intensive in the last couple levels.
(After a bit of recovery time, given there was more arm work ahead...)
Last, Day 2 of the RbP. Level 3, max rest. Yeah a lot of bicep extensions / arm raise hold times. Definitely a more intensive load that SOP. Arms got nice and tired.
Spent rest of the day on the usual stuff.
Got to bed later than yesterday.
-
Mar. 18
I woke up around noon and one of the first things I took care of was exercise.
First, today’s DD. 100 shoulder taps with Ec (standing). Manageable work, a bit tough in the last 30 reps or so.
Second, Day 3 of the SOP. Flexibility day, Level 3, no rest again. The Achilles/calf stretches were satisfying. Pretty breezy and good warmup.
Last, Day 3 of the RbP. Leg day, Level 3. I rested ~1′ in between sets, this time. Kinda glad for the short/small lunge intervals here. I feel like I need to give the knees some TLC again here soon...
Spent several hours on the usual stuff (reminisced about some old fandom stuff). Did a bit more writing before getting to bed too.
I got to bed obscenely late, in the red zone
-
Mar. 19
I woke up around noon.
After some YouTube, I got going on my exercise.
First, today’s DD. 10 archer push-ups, no EC. I wasn’t confident enough to do this type of push-up off the knees today - so modded things down that way. Yeah. Not a huge fan of these
Second, Day 4 of the SOP. Level 3, no rest, no assists. Enjoyable and gentle balance work, is what I got from it.
Last, Day 4 of the RbP. Level 3, max rest. Ooof. got to sweating buckets and winded - but done! I’m kinda surprised at how this Level 2 program isn’t as much of a cakewalk as it may seem. the hidden push-ups also helped make things that much more intense. (But I’m still in good enough condition to meet the challenge and I still think the rating is appropriate!)
After a bit of chatting, I made today’s Hello Fresh Meal. Oven-ready chili coconut curry chicken. A pretty low-effort meal, which I appreciated. That said - I may have to throw it in oven longer than specified next time around (i think I may’ve used a bit too much foil to cover the tins - might’ve drawn more heat away from the food like the chicken.) Otherwise pretty enjoyable.
After some dishes and chatting, got some substantive writing progress in (letting FocusMe do it’s job for me more effectively, helped).
I got to bed obscenely late, in the red zone... again.
-
Summary of Experience:
I completed my second run through the Age of Pandora Program in March 15. Quite a few days later than intended... but February/March has really been kicking my ass in terms of stress and energy levels.
At any rate, these are my stats from this run of the program:
Points Traveled: 1,428TP, Level 2, as high knees. (1 point = 10 steps.)
Challenge Levels Taken:
Level 3 for 45 Days (vs 19 from prior record!) - Feels pretty good hitting Level 3 for most of it, this time! \o/
Level 2 for 3 Days (vs 29 from prior record)
Level 1 for 1 Day (vs 1 from prior record) - Chapter 55 still kicked my ass, needed to break after Set 2... again. orz
Jobs Taken: 17 (5 Canis + 12 Misc/Ch.) - Looks like I did considerably less than last time.
Fights Won (Pits): 4 (City Pits) - Not counting instances for plot. It was fun doing more of these, this time around! Probably overdid it a little bit in pacing/loading. Pffft.
[Ending] Scraps: 200
Paths Taken (Spoiler-Free Version): Same as prior run!
Alana, Dicer, and Morse were invited to my camp, again.
---
My stats for the previous run from 2016, for reference...
Part 1:
Points Traveled: 755TP, Level 3, as march steps - mostly. (1 point = 20 steps.)
Challenge Levels Taken:
Level 3 for 10 days
Level 2 for 15 days

Pit-Style Fights Won: 3 (2 Plot + 1 Extra)
[Ending] Scraps: 4450
Paths Taken (Spoiler-Free Version): B, A, A (Perk Get!), A, B, B (To Be Continued...)
Alana, Dicer, and Morse were invited to my camp.
Part 2:
Points Traveled: 633TP, Level 3, as march steps - mostly.
Challenge Levels Taken: [After fixing counting errors]
Level 3 for 9 days
Level 2 for 14 days

Simmer Get to Know Tag
Thanks for the tag, @treason-and-plot. I know I took a while with it.
Tagging @sunset-melody @shhhushhh and @simcatcher.
Your name: Diana
Languages you speak: Russian, English, a little Spanish and French.
Are you a mermaid: bruh, I can’t even swim.
Your play style : Whatever flies onto my head tends to end up in my sims game. So, whatever goes, really.
Your Selfsim picture: Don’t have any new ones at this time.
Stories or gameplay, builds, lookbooks, edits or cc: Stories, builds, some cc.
Your favorite age state: I like young adults, but really, anyone who fits story purposes works for me.
Your favorite season: In game, probably winter for how it looks. In real life? Don’t know. I live in California, so we don’t really get real seasons, at least not in SoCal. I kind of miss leaves changing color. Don’t miss the injuries and the cold that tend to happen in winter, though.
Your favorite holiday: To be honest, it’s been a while since I’ve truly played through the in-game holidays. I like the gift exchange one, though.
How was your day: Crummy, because I have an assignment that’s unfinished and that I’m not likely to finish. Not because I’m lazy and procrastinating, but because the prof my Mom and I “fondly” nicknamed “vampire” is pretty unclear with his assignments and even the simplest ones of them give me a mini-breakdown. Yeah, fun... But I did vote, so that’s a plus. Gotta do your civic duty, folks. And I am enjoying a nice brandy now, so that’s an improvement to the day.
Your favorite career: I kind of like the ghost-hunter one. Yes, I was a big fan of the Ghosbusters. I love it that they included it. Also, the PI one, obviously!
Your favorite aspiration: I like the Writer one. Because you get to name the books ;) When I was playing around with Daria, it was fun imagining the names of the books she’d write.
Your favorite EP, Sp or GP : I refuse to play without Supernatural and Late Night.
How old is your Simblr: About 6 years now?
Have you woohooed: No. I wish I had more of a wish to do it, since Mom keeps hinting she wants grandkids. Sorry, dear, you’ll have to wait.
Your favorite skill: All the music ones.
The size of your Mods folder: 31 GB. I might need to clean stuff out sooner or later.
Your 3 favorite mods: All those NRAAS Ones, Pose Player, The Children Can one.
Your interests (other than sims): Writing, reading, cooking, going for really long walks. Seriously, sometimes tiring oneself out is a good idea.
Your favorite Sim/s (picture if possible): I really liked this one, lately. I really want to write a story for those two, but I’m still working out all the kinks in it.
Which Sims games you have played (including mobile games) : Sims 3, Sims Freeplay and Sims Mobile.
Propose a crazy scheme: What if that crazy p-bot infestation we were experiencing at the end of 2017 was actually an inside job by Tumblr staff/owners to make their adult content ban justifiable? I mean, come on, I can’t be the only one who thought so?
Best part of simblr:
1.Meeting people from all over the world who share your interests. Seriously priceless.
2. Being able to see out characters become fleshed out on screen and to see the public’s reactions to them.
3. Creativity. So much of it.
Worst part of simblr:
1. It can start being addictive. I would know. Even if it’s only a hobby, it can create a dependency.
2. Also, sometimes it starts feeling like a job. Or like, if you haven’t done this plotline or photoshoot, the inspo might disappear, so you have to do it fast. I think many of you will recognize this feeling.
3. The Tumblr ban. I mean, I don’t know about you guys, but I still get p-bots. So, what exactly did they accomplish?
What other games you play: Only mobile ones. Pocket Camp, Lily’s Garden (I love anything with a story!), Helix Waltz. Yeah, it’s a dress-up game, in essence, but the story is pretty great. Also, I’m kind of liking the character’s growth, even though she’s developing some conniving traits. My girl straight up pulled a gun on someone in one of the latest chapters!
Other websites or accounts (origin, twitter etc..) : Wordpress, Google for pics, I have a Blogger account for commenting, but that’s it. I still have a Facebook, but don’t really use it these days.
Are you single: Yes.

Phew! We barely made it-- it’s so darn hot out lately, who wants to get out in that nasty, hot sun? Well-- hopefully you guys, because we’ve got another blast of an event coming up for you now! Yup, it’s that time again; when it’s 100 degrees out in the shade, the pool’s packed, and you wished your AC worked better, then that can only mean one thing: Natpark has reached another birthday!
July 25th will mark the Park’s fourth year running. Isn’t that incredible? We’ve had so many people over the years, made so many wonderful friends, and seen many of you grow over the progression of your time here. We couldn’t ask for better people to be a part of our group. You are what have brought us this far, and we’re so grateful to every single one of you. And what better way to celebrate such a wonderful thing than with a fun event?!
DJ BEN AND MARY’S SUPER FUN CAMPING THREAD EXTRAVAGANZA
DJ Ben has been getting more and more excited to get in on running events ever since the Valentine’s Event, and together with DJ Mary, they’ve cooked up an event that will certainly be unforgettable-- and it’s up to the participants to decide if that’s good or bad, so get ready!
What’s more summery than camping, right? And what’s better than boring old camping? Why, camping with a fabulous prize involved, of course! DJ Ben and Mary want people to partner up and hike into the wilderness of Lostlorn Forest in search of an amazing (and highly confidential) prize to find at the end of your journey. And if you’re already feeling lost-- don’t worry! They had just the idea to make sure people could get around without getting too lost.
Pick one of your Pokemon companions to come with you-- only one is permitted per person! Now that you and your partner are ready, it’s time to get camping! But after just a brief time away from camp, oh no! Someone has taken all of you and your partner’s things! But then you find a note--
“Hey there, campers! So I told you guys you’d be hunting for something out here in the wilderness, but I never told you what it was, right? Well, this should get you guys inspired to go searching! Mary and I are taking good care of your things, so don’t worry! Just have fun and get going; if you find us, you’ll get your stuff back! Wow!
Don’t feel totally lost. We’ve also given you a Pokemon specially chosen by us to help you and your partner along your way! Hopefully it knows where to go from where you’re at, so just believe in that Pokemon, believe in your partner, and believe in yourselves! This is all about team work-- that’s what’s going to make the dream work!
...and don’t worry! There’s an actual prize to be won here aside from getting your stuff back! We promise that there’s a super awesome prize you’ll want to win if you reach the end. We only have a few of them to give out, so get here quick! Good luck!
--DJ Ben (& Mary)”
Oh, that Ben! Looks like you better act fast to get your things back. Here’s hoping you don’t get too lost!
THE RULES
Sign-ups last one week starting with today, July 18th, all the way to Thursday, July 25th at 11:59 P.M. EST.

Please specify which of your muses you would like to participate if you have multiple characters!

The event will officially end on Friday, August 16th, but there is no time limit on finishing these threads, and you may continue them past this date if you would like! We highly encourage it! However, it is beneficial for your muses to complete the thread quickly so they can get a prize, but do not feel pressured to rush it!

Part 3 / ?, wherein they go camping, much to Kinshirou’s dismay.
This is a long, image-heavy post. I’ve had it ready since like December but I never bothered to post it until now because I stopped playing the game for a while and I’m lazy. If you’re reading this on my blog and it’s done the obnoxious thing where it doesn’t show readmores, just click the date <3
You probably don’t remember where we left off because it’s been ages since the last post. I didn’t remember either. En had just gotten his second promotion in a few days; the game continued to insist on sending him home from work in an awkward outfit on promotion days. Kinshirou had just published his etiquette manual, and I had finally learned how to keep Atsushi from being miserable when he got home from work. However, En and Atsushi’s work schedules still kept them from spending much time together as a group.
En’s latest work of art is a beautiful, subtle masterpiece. I know that because I, an ignorant philistine, see the art of a 6-year-old, but an art gallery was interested enough to pay $50 more than he usually gets for large paintings.
This is kind of sweet, but he and En aren’t even engaged yet. Calm down, Kinshirou. It’s amazing how well the game knows them asd;lfk
Atsushi has been promoted to caterer!! A $10/hour raise so that his hourly wage is no longer a pittance, a $368 bonus, and a coffeepot. His work hours start an hour earlier and end two hours earlier, which still isn’t very good :\ but look, he’s so proud of himself.
To get to the next level of his career, he has to start learning to mix drinks. I’ve dreaded this moment because the last time I bought someone a bar to level mixology, they never wanted to do anything else again except mix drinks. I took it away in the end.
Kinshirou wakes up, sees that En’s gone, and goes to find him in the bathroom just so that he can kiss his cheek.
Since he’s awake now anyway, En paints an Enatsu painting and then a Kinatsuen painting, one after another. I can’t bring myself to sell either of them. The Kinatsuen one is going to stay where it is, but I’m putting the Enatsu one in Atsushi’s room, because it’s kind of bare at the moment.
En’s suave kiss is different than Kinshirou’s was. I assume it’s because he and Atsushi aren’t boyfriends yet? But Atsushi still seems charmed.
And now that they’ve drawn my attention to that oversight, Atsushi asks En to be his boyfriend.
You can imagine your own dialogue here. You’re all so dirty-minded.
En is into it, though.
He immediately kisses Atsushi on the cheek. I’m glad all the Sims think that’s as cute as I do.
Now they can all go on a much-deserved(???) vacation :D En and Atsushi have to take some vacation days to do it, but they want to spend some time together as a triad.
They’re going camping! For four days. It’s cheap, and they’re still a little broke. En and Atsushi are nervous, but willing to give it a try. Kinshirou...
..yeah.
Their home away from home. There are cabins and houses you can rent, but... like I said. They’re broke.
Kinshirou decides to start his vacation by practicing horseshoes. If this is all they have for entertainment, he’s going to master it.
But En doesn’t like that attitude.
En: Come on, cheer up, it’ll be fun.
Kinshirou: Hmm... Maybe so, then.
Kinshirou: ...but I’ll still win at this game. Move.
As you can see behind them, Atsushi has been setting up their tents.
He’s also the only one to introduce himself to the park ranger. In other words, he continues to be the only useful Sim.
En is a miracle worker wtf
Once Atsushi’s done the boring stuff, he can join his boyfriends and spend his time being cute and flirty, as was the point of this vacation.
Kinshirou lights the fire for no reason. You’d think after part two, he’d have seen enough fire.
En... get up. What if Atsushi drops that horseshoe?
He does get up, finally. He has important painting to do.
Yes, I did add the easel to the lot before I brought them here. This vacation is costing $3 more per night than it otherwise would have.
So much excitement for a mediocre toss. And Atsushi can’t pretend to be impressed because he’s besieged by bugs.
Maybe En is trying to develop a style reminiscent of a young child’s?
Meanwhile, Kinshirou is still struggling with horseshoes.
So it’s easy, but you’re still bad at it? Got it.
Atsushi reassures him until he’s not embarrassed anymore...
...so now snobbish boredom is his dominant emotion. Look at that face. Why does anyone tolerate him?
If you’re wondering where En went, he’s taking a shower in here.
Atsushi’s first attempt at grilling!
En is drawn back by the promise of Atsushi’s excellent-quality(!!) baked potatoes. They’re sparkling! Atsushi’s so happy :D
Happy boyfriends, although Atsushi is again plagued by bugs.
Help him
Kinshirou wanders off in the middle of a conversation and goes to sleep. En is glad to have an excuse to do to the same.
Atsushi goes to the bathroom, but doesn’t return. When I check on him, I find him like this:
He’s stargazing. <3 But that’s not the spot I would have chosen, myself.
The next morning, Atsushi happily makes breakfast. He seems to be moving past any fire-related trauma from his near-death experience in part two.
Kinshirou also goes to the bathroom and doesn’t return. When I find him, not only is he making unnecessary food, he’s making exactly the same thing as Atsushi, except
wth a lot less skill behind it.
He burns himself. :c Just go eat breakfast with the others, Kinshirou.
Kinshirou: En, isn’t Atchan wonderful? He makes the best food, and he’s always so kind...
En: Yeah, you’re right. Atsushi’s great.
Atsushi looks so embarrassed... Change the subject, guys.
They’ve ventured out to the national park! They’re learning how to fish in case Atsushi ever wants to use fish in a meal.
They keep gaining friendship with each other and with this girl, even though none of them have said a word. Maybe words aren’t necessary when you’re fishing buddies.
Kinshirou catches two fish before either of the others catch anything. So when Atsushi catches one...
...he’s super excited.
Finally, to En’s incredulous annoyance, it becomes clear that he won’t catch anything in that spot.
Poor En-chan.
...poor En-chan.
There, back to normal.
Before they give up altogether on En learning to fish, they’ll try this one other spot. I just really want En to learn how to fish a;lskjf ...but the fish are too crafty for him here, too.
This is the face of a man who no longer cares.
Catching the fish made Atsushi confident, so he decides that En will be real impressed if he shows off his muscles. ...It’s sweet of En to humor him.
I see you back there, bear man. Fuck off.
I said fuck off.
If the last screenshot had you wondering, Kinshirou is telling an unbelievable story.
God damn it they’re all tense now
Kinshirou mocks the bear costume because I’m annoyed he’s annoyed about the situation. Then the three of them leave, so that they aren’t tense anymore.
Atsushi cooks his fish while En entertains them all with an adventure story :D
He follows up with a ghost story. Atsushi hangs on his every word.
Kinshirou chooses to find it amusing.
................ I forgot that ghost stories summon ghosts.
Oops.
He doesn’t stay long, though. The ghost that haunts the picnic table...
What has En done?!
En: Holy shit, my bad.
Kinshirou: Well done, En. Good job.
Atsushi, in the background, is preoccupied. He’s exposing himself to the source of his fears in order to lessen the fear. No ghosts will get in the way of his exposure therapy.
They go back to their campsite, where the ghost is not. Kinshirou hopes that if he goes to sleep, he’ll be less freaked out about the ghost in the morning. En has other ideas for how to dispel his tension. Atsushi never even noticed the ghost to begin with, but he’s happy to go along with En.
...at which point I remember that this is the first Enatsu WooHoo! Congrats, guys. They get a happy moodlet from good WooHoo, as well, like En and Kinshirou did that once (except theirs was from “spectacular” WooHoo but ok whatever).
Kinshirou and Atsushi have never had a WooHoo so good they got a happy moodlet. I guess En is just really good at WooHoo.
Morning activities c:
Atsushi made this meal twice and it was poor quality both times. Fish tacos 2.0. At least he’s not so heartbroken about it this time.
This screenshot has no narrative value. I just thought it was cute.
The food was so bad it made them all feel sick... Oh, well. Atsushi is still learning.
En... I know you’re a slob, but there are limits...
“From the moist depths of the trash, En has recovered: 1 baconite.” Congratulations, En. Was it worth it.
It wouldn’t be a Kinatsuen Sims post without a screenshot of Atsushi looking distressed. This is why I put you in your tent to relax, Atsushi!! Just rest for a little while, you’ll feel better soon.
He takes it out on the bugs instead. I guess that works too.
This is the moodlet Kinshirou got after he and Atsushi WooHooed:
But this is Atsushi’s:
Kinshirou, you worry too much. Atsushi liked it, see? It looks like I spoke too soon about no happy moodlets from Kinatsu WooHoo, although it’d have been nice if they’d both gotten it.
But Kinshirou must not be too mortified, because he accepts Atsushi’s offer to be BFFs.
...and only afterwards did I realize that you can’t have multiple BFFs, and there’s no mod to make it possible. I guess it doesn’t matter too much, but poor En.
This is the only couple that hasn’t WooHooed in a tent yet. They should have a turn.
...but really that’s only an excuse to get them doing something else so that Atsushi can wander off and harvest wild things guilt-free. I want him to learn herbalism.
He identifies things by eating them, which makes me nervous. But the WooHoo back there seems to be going well.
lol.
Kinshirou now has two concurrent WooHoo moodlets. I’m proud of him.
Desperate for culture and civilization, he decides to view this big statue. But the bugs have other plans.
Dont look so resigned, En. Maybe it’ll go better this time.
(It did go better! He caught a fish. But I was following Kinshirou around in his herbalism journey and missed it.)
This again... If they can’t learn that every time you poke a fire with a stick, the stick catches fire, maybe they should just stay away from fire.
Because En is a lazy Sim, he doesn't jog when he has to go long distances like the other two do. As a result, it takes him a million years to go places. They all started to head back to the campsite at the same time, but Atsushi has already cooked and eaten dinner, and Kinshirou has burned a stick as well, by the time En deigns to show up.
After dinner, Atsushi asks Kinshirou to go stargazing. <3
There aren’t many screenshots for the next day because they don’t do much of anything interesting. That’s largely because they sleep very late.
Kinshirou, pls
This is not the time to hit on Atsushi. Atsushi is fighting the eternal battle against the bugs.
Or so I would have said, but whatever En does here, he manages to get Atsushi’s attention.
...then he turns and starts talking to Kinshirou asldjkf
Atsushi: Hey... En-chan... I’m still up for... you know... you didn’t forget already, did you?
They all keep rolling whims to get married to each other but hey don’t have enough money or friends for a nice wedding yet asdl;jfk and they would be sad in the end if they had the quick, boring type of Sim wedding. They’ll have to daydream quietly about it for a little while longer.
En ends the trip with another story. Not a ghost story this time, though. He learned his lesson. This is a fairytale. Soon afterwards, when he and Kinshirou are stargazing, Kinshirou gets homesick :C Poor baby, he’s not meant for camping.
The next day, without fanfare or screenshots, they head home. I think their vacation was good for them, but Atsushi has no vacation days left, so lets hope he doesn't set himself on fire again before he earns another one.
Will they ever get to see the community lots built and chosen especially for them? Will they get a cat? Will I, in fact, pick up The Sims again at all? When in the world will En and Atsushi have compatible work schedules so that they don’t have to run away into the wilderness to be together? Only time will tell.
Epilogue:
The lion is En’s idea of a painting that inspires confidence.
#boueibu#kinatsuen#enkinatsu#enatsukin#?!?!?!???!?!?! im sure there are other ship names but does anyone check any other tags#w/e#my post#sims 4 kinatsuen#i rly want to play them some more but i have $110 worth of xpacs and game packs to buy and that intimidates me#but i want to get them a kitty ;-;#anyway i thought id post this since its been sitting on my computer for ages waiting to be posted#will anyone even look at this idk but now ill be able to say i posted it#im not proofreading it rn ill do it later
