I've been doing this throughout my life..but i hesitated long to do it again. Just like i ignored this idea in the first place.
But then..i could no longer stop my hand from trying. And so i did it.
I shipped myself with DaiMon Tog. 🫧
I'm glad i did this.
A fictional crush feels safe. A fictional character won't break your heart, or judge you. You're in control of the story. Wether it's a good or bad ending, a brief or endless love..at least you know there is chemistry. 💗
(i wanted to post this piece on #Valentinesday, but the concept turned out a little more ambitious than planned lol)
Besides it makes me think..
Is it really a controversy to ship yourself, because it might be considered egocentric, or in any way abnormal..because you're claiming a fictional character for yourself, like visibly, for anyone to see?
Since Tog is not a popular character (in general, and for what he did), can i have him? ..Cuz if he existed for real he would've for sure claimed a female as his property, and that makes us even 🤗
I think i've explained enough. ^_^

Ji Ho inspired me to test some filters in the Photo Studio App
So many awesome filters ✨ And the best thing is that you can fav them. I can't do that in the Incollage App and it always bothered me. Especially when I wanted to edit a few pics with the same filter, I had to scroll through all the filters again for each pic omg ^^'

A peaceful day in Brindleton Bay.
I've been building and then I noticed these three dots at the beach.
Usually, it's some cats and dogs.
But it's the Little Goats and Kumo!
They are still there after we took the pics in October 2023! omg
And usually, they get placed back in the inventory when we leave (?)
But they are doing fine. It seems they play frisbee with a plate hahaha
Living their best life :3
Little Goat: 'Problem with that?'
Eh, no. No problems ^^'

(Poll below)
Jack logged out from his Therapy Game and he couldn't be happier.
Tiny Can did a very good job. Though, he'll have to have a word with Tiny Can and the goats about that BL content.
But maybe he's supposed to start a romance with Lou to forget about Kiyoshi?
Saiwa is so happy that Jack didn't feel the pain from his rash ingame :3
So it seems that the feelings from ingame do not effect their life here (like Vlad's ingame hunger) and the feelings and sensations from out of the game won't necessarily affect their characters ingame.
Poor Vlad is torn. He's happy that Jack's therapy went so much better than his own playtest, but he's afraid to send Ji Ho in the game.
What if he really is going to marry Caleb?
But he can't be selfish. Ji Ho deserves his therapy. And if it helps Ji Ho, he will survive it too.
Jack: "So Sai, my friend. When will you go to your therapy?"
Sai: "Uhm..."
Saiwa is hesistant. He's their leader and should have been the first to check the Therapy Game and if it's safe for the others, but he's not ready yet to face his problems.
And that's fine. The door to change can only be opened from the inside. (This quote is written on the wall at the front desk of my psychiatrist. Another one says 'Change needs time'.)
Jack: "I'm just kidding. I bet no one can stop Ji Ho from checking out now if he's really Caleb's bride! Right, Ji Ho?"
Ji Ho laughs a bit nervous: "A haha, yes. Can't wait."
Of course Ji Ho can't wait. Caleb is the dream of each of them (well, except Vlad's). But he also knows this will hurt Vlad.
Vlad has to leave to care for Jeb and Kiyoshi. They quickly charge the Bond and Vlad tries to let Ji Ho know through the Bond that he's ok with whatever happens in the Therapy Game. But he's not even fooling Diablo...
Ji Ho is torn. Is it really ok to hurt Vlad's feelings when it's necessary for his therapy and well being?
Ji Ho asked Jack and Sai what they would do.
Jack thought about it too. But he does not have a partner right now so he's up for it should Lou hit on him.
Saiwa agrees that Ji Ho should go for it. It's just a game after all and NPC Caleb is not the real Caleb. Nothing is real in the Therapy Game.
Jack: "So, it would be ok for you if Jeb had a boyfriend ingame?"
Saiwa hisses and Jack realized that he went to far.
Jack: "This isn't as easy a decision as it seems, huh."
It's time to go to bed. They are tired but Jack is still happily chatting about the game and they are glad it went so well for him. And even though they saw some scenes on the screen, they listen.
It wasn't possible to watch everything anyway. Jack had been away for a few hours and they took turns to watch over him. And it's interesting to hear how it had been for Jack and how he experienced his Therapy Game.
If Ji Ho's therapy goes well too, Saiwa will try it.
One day they will have to return back home to the others and he'd better be prepared to face Kiyoshi and Jeb again. He misses Jeb so much it hurts. But he has no idea how they are supposed to get over this fake realtionship he had with Kiyoshi. Even though they both agreed to it because they had no choice.
'May the ghosts that howled round the house at night
Never keep you from your sleep
May they all sleep tight down in hell tonight
Or wherever they may be
As I walked on with a heavy heart then a stone danced on the tide
And the song went on though the lights were gone
And the North wind gently sighed
And an evening breeze coming from the East
That kissed the riverside
So I pray now child that you sleep tonight when you hear this lullaby
May the wind that blows from haunted graves never bring you misery
May the angels bright watch you tonight
And keep you while you sleep'
Lullaby of London - The Pogues
(Such a beautiful song. Shane McGowan, the head of the Pogues, died November last year but he left us all his beautiful music. He was so gifted.)

Jack's Therapy Game
(From the beginning: -> here)
After Jack cared for the horses and Lou prepared the room for Jack, they went over to the Pub.
Jack didn't get kicked out like Vlad and no one asked about his 'status'.
Jack: "About the money for the room and stuff... I'll get a job right tomorrow morning. I heard the sculptor is hiring."
Lou: "Oh no, no one works for the sculptor."
Jack: "I don't have problems to take my shirt off."
Lou: "It's not this. We don't talk about it. Don't you worry, you can help me at the shop."
Lou noticed Jack's rash.
Lou: "Isn't this painful? I've heard about this. Did your Alpha die? If you don't get this treated you might die too, you know that, don't you?"
Jack: "No, he didn't die - it's uhm... complicated and yes..."
Now that he thinks about it, it doesn't hurt! He didn't even pay attention since he was so stressed about being locked up. But as far as he remembers, it didn't hurt since he entered the game!
Jack: "I'm fine :3 So, are these your horses?"
Lou: "No, Lunatic belongs to no one but he kind of lives here and Val is the horse of a friend from the neighboring village. But he's here all the time because they are deeply in love."
Jack: "Is that so."
Does that mean this friend is NPC Jeb? Well, since Ji Ho and some of their other friends are also here as NPCs, it would make sense. Jack hopes he can talk to one of them soon to see how 'real' their NPC versions are.
Tiny Can maybe does this so they feel comfortable in their therapy.
Even the Queen and the Prince Caleb are here tonight.
And he's seen NPC Leander, Barfolomew and: Greg -.-
But the Queen and Greg don't sit together. Like at the Arena.
That's good news!
Jack: "Is the Queen married?"
Lou: "No. And she's only the Queen here until the Prince gets married to Princess Jihovere."
Princess Jihovere? Caleb and Ji Ho will get married here? OMG!
And the Queen will not stay the Queen here so his chances to hit on her just increased! (Omg Jack!)
('Jihovere' refers to 'Guinevere', the beloved wife of King Arthur.)
Jack and Lou had a good time at the pub and Jack has a good feeling about this therapy.
For once he can try to act like a 'more normal' person in this world and see what he could achieve. No one here knows about his disorders and hardships. And here he can experience what his life could be if he overcame/worked on some of them. He's fully aware that he can't be 'healed' and he knows that his friends love him and worry about him and try to protect him. But he also gets the feeling that this keeps him from prospering. He'll talk about this with the others when he's back.
But he's going to stay a little longer because he really likes Lou and they have so much fun together. And the pain is gone. Jack hadn't felt this good for a very long time.
'Everybody here is out of sight
They don't bark, and they don't bite
They keep things loose, they keep 'em tight
Everybody was dancin' in the moonlight
Dancin' in the moonlight
Everybody's feelin' warm and bright
It's such a fine and natural sight
Everybody's dancin' in the moonlight
We like our fun and we never fight
You can't dance and stay uptight
It's a supernatural delight
Everybody was dancin' in the moonlight'

Pic above: It seems Agatha is also a big fan of Lou ;)
Pics below:
Jack and Lou were peacefully riding to the Pub, when Lunatic ran off.
Back to the Arena where Noxee still was (with Greg of course! Poor Jack ^^')
Siawa had 'called' (from outside the Game) to ask Jack if everything is ok :3 aouww
They are so worried after what happened in Jack's first playtest.
And Vampire Prince Caleb wasn't feeling well with all those furry Werewolves around ö.Ö'
Prince Caleb: "Why are we even here?"
Queen Noxee: "That's what royals do apparently. Show up at all kind of nonsense events to please our subjects or whatsoever. Smile!"
Haha and then adult Jack passed by!
Vlad: "Can I have my money now?"

Kiyoshi: "Where is Vlad?"
Jeb: "He promised he'd be back soon..."
He's right behind you, Kiyoshi.
There he is :3
They'd really been at the Beach House when we spotted them the other day. They'd missed the others.
Vlad is in all three pics above, did you see him? ^^
('Strandhaus'=Beach House and 'Bangkok Buddies'=their happy/crappy home. When I started to build, I named it after one of my favourite Thai Dramas 'Bangkok Buddies' and I didn't change the name yet ^^')

I don't know when I will be able to log into Sims 4 again. The EA app stopped working on my old Windows 7 computer and I fear it's because microsoft stopped supporting Windows 7. But this computer is far over 10 years old so I gifted myself a new one :3 Wish me luck I get the game running and the Boys migrated well ö.Ö I miss them 😭 Yesterday was the first festival in the wheel of the year since winter solstice 2022 we hadn't spent together 💔

Jack eventually convinced the others to send him back to the Therapy Game.
And even though Vlad had a (mostly) positive experience, they are so worried after Jack broke down when he returned from his last session.
Saiwa: "Be careful. Leave whenever you feel uncomfortable."
Jack: "I will."
Tiny Can beeped exitedly and started the Game.
Jack was still locked up. But he kept himself from screaming 'OUT!' and tried to get himself together. This. Is. Just. A. Game.
Breathe in through the nose and out through the muzzle. Just like Saiwa tought him.
He managed to calm down a bit and looked around.
There was NPC Barfolomew! And NPC Uncle Stefan on the stands! What a strange place.
Is this a court hearing? They won't execute him, will they?
NPC Barfolomew stood up: "Are you ready Boys?"
A growl and a rattle from the cell next to Jack answered him ö.Ö'
There is another wolf captured here.
And from the stand Jack heard the crowd chant: "Wolfsbane! Wolfsbane! WOLFSBANE!!!" Just like last time.
Barfolomew is obviously the bookmaker here.
He opened their cells (finally!) and they stepped out.
Jack looked around. Of course there is also an NPC Greg!
He is so going to have a word with Tiny Can when he's back!
At least there's no gallow or pyre.
The Queen hissed: "Who is this pooch and why isn't he greeting his Queen?"
Barfolomew: "Forgive him, Your Royal Highness! He probably grew up in the woods!"
And to Jack: "Hey, Moonchild! Get yourself together!"
And so Wolfsbane and Moonchild greeted the Queen and her entourage.
Which consisted of no lesser than Noxee, Ji Ho and: Caleb! OMG!
(The Boys met Caleb Vatore last Winter Solstice ^^')
Even though Jack knows that these are only NPCs, he's so excited. Noxee! And Caleb! He already regrets that he left the game early last time. And Ji Ho looks so beautiful!
Barfolomew went back to his table.
Jack Moonchild and Wolfsbane stood opposite of each other. So these are wolf fights!
Barfolomew shouted: "The bets are placed. Leeet's get ready to rrrumble!"
And the crowd cheered and chanted their 'Wolfsbane!' fan chants...
Wolfsbane hugged Jack Moonchild and whispered: "Don't worry, I'll go easy on you!"
Caleb does not seem to like what he sees.
Despite Wolfsbane's promise, it was a rough fight. But Jack Moonchild enjoyed it. He loves a good fight - and he's the Super Soldier after all :3
Neither is giving anything away. Caleb's eyes are locked on the combatants.
'Well, in the Euston Tavern you screamed it was your shout
But they wouldn't give you service so you kicked the windows out
They took you out into the street, kicked you in the brains
So you walked back in through a bolted door and did it all again
At the sick bed of Cúchulainn we'll kneel and say a prayer
And the ghosts are rattling at the door and the devil's in the chair, hey'
The Sick Bed of Cuchulainn - The Pogues
I can't keep still when I hear this song! ^^'
It was an equal fight but Jack Moonchild won in the end. And Caleb looks shocked. It seems he placed his bets on Wolfsbane.
The Queen stepped down to congratulate Moonchild and extolled them for the enthralling fight.
His beloved, beautiful Noxee. Best therapy ever!
In this world he is not the damaged, mangled wolf with a bag full of disorders. Here he can show his talents and gather positive experiences in a safe surrounding. Good job, Tiny Can!
And maybe, in this game, Noxee is not together with Greg and Jack can woo her and become her King!
If Greg were her King, he would sit next to her, wouldn't he?
Poor defeated Wolfsbane can't look pouting Caleb in his sulking eyes.
To be continued...

Do you play with aging on or off? 👶👦👨👴💀
(If you are in Team 'Both': with which setting do you play most of the time?)
If you like you can add in the comments why so and what your thoughts are about aging, the life spans, the life stages etc.
