Max: “Wow... Do you mind if we stop here for a few minutes?”

Tanya: “I don’t mind. I’m not too hungry yet.”

Max: “I want to create music that stirs the soul and awes the way that fire dancer is doing. It’s incredible. He’s so fluid. There’s the thrill but also a calm. Amazing! I want to capture that tapestry of emotion in sound.”

Tanya: “You know, they say that new and unique experiences help a sim making art with true depth... Maybe you should see if the fire dancer will teach you his craft?”

Max: “You won’t mind if we’re here for a while.”

Tanya: “It’ll be fun to watch you!”

Max: “That was indescribable! Thank you for encouraging me to do that. It’s been a long time since I had a sim to encourage me to kindle that creative spark.”

Tanya: “Max, kiss me.”

Max Gutmann, "Ozymandias" Meets "Casey at the Bat"

The outlook wasn’t brilliant for the Sandville One that day. The boundless, barren, lone, and level sands stretched far away. The traveler who’d tell the tale now gazed on it alone. A king’s cracked visage lay beside vast, trunkless legs of stone. His name was Ozymandias, a name of great renown; Upon his monumental visage glared a potent frown; A wrinkle curled his lip; he wore a sneer of cold…

Random KISS Facts

(That nobody asked for)

Gene

The first time Gene spit fire, he caught his hair on fire

Back in the beginning of KISS, Gene would do a trick with flash paper, but one night his aim was off and the paper blew up in a kid’s face

Paul

During the Hotter Than Hell photoshoot, Paul got so drunk, that Gene had to lock him in the station wagon to keep Paul from hurting himself

Ace

Ace punched Tommy Thayer in the face when he (Tommy) was manager, over Ace having his girlfriend in the dressing room

Ace Frehley almost drowned twice. Once in a hotel bathtub and another time in a pool. Gene saved him both times

A day before the Hotter Than Hell photo shoot, Ace got in a bad car accident and split one side of his face open so. Because of this, Ace couldn’t wear that side of his makeup, so all the shots were profiles

Around 2000, Ace Frehley missed a flight to a concert in Los Angeles and the band got manager Tommy Thayer ready to fill in for Frehley, in costume and makeup. Frehley made it to the show at the last minute via helicopter ride from LAX to the venue

Peter

Peter Criss hardly played during the Reunion/Farewell tour, so they put an amplifier on his drums to make it sound like he was actually playing. That’s why a lot of the crew members would say “don’t sneeze around Peter’s drum set”

Eric C.

After the Dynasty tour was over, Peter Criss left the band. So, after KISS announced his departure, they held auditions for a new drummer and selected Paul Carvello, later renamed Eric Carr

When Eric Carr had to sing “Beth” he called Peter to make sure he (Peter) was ok with him singing his song

When Eric Carr recorded his vocal for the re-recording of “Beth” in 1988, he sat on the same drum stool that Peter Criss used during the original recording of the song in 1976

KISS’s late drummer Eric Carr’s collar on his 1980 “fox” costume was made out of real fox fur

In Paul’s book Face the Music he says that “When the tour stopped in Manhattan for two gigs at the Ritz, Eric Carr came to one of the shows and sat in the balcony with his head resting on the railing through the entire show. Afterwards he came backstage, and out of left field, turned to Eric Singer, and said, ‘You’re going to replace me.’ ‘What are you talking about?’ I spoke. ‘He’s going to replace me in KISS,’ said Eric Carr, nodding at Eric Singer. ‘Listen, Eric, you’re the drummer in KISS, and he’s the drummer of my solo band.’” But as fate would have it, Eric Singer was the perfect fit

Tommy

March 11, 2000, through April 13, 2001, was the Reunion/Farewell Tour with Ace and Peter. Tommy Thayer was KISS’ tour manager at the time, and he had to retrain Ace and Peter all their parts, because they hadn’t played in years. It proved to be difficult, and Tommy almost gave up. But with the reassurance of Paul, he managed to reteach Ace and Peter all their parts

Album/Song Facts

Cannons were recorded and mixed into KISS Alive! to mimic the pyrotechnics that didn’t come through the microphones correctly

Alive! was recorded in multiple different cities with crowd audio combined to make the crowd sound bigger. Alive! was mainly recorded in Detroit

At one point KISS almost went under because Neil Bogart (KISS’ manager) had maxed out his credit card. With the combination of the special effects, levitating drum set (that seldom ever worked), the exploding drumsticks, and Neil’s gambling issue, the band almost went under, but when Alive! went Platinum, it saved the group

On Dynasty Anton Fig played on the tracks except for “Dirty Livin’,” written, and played by Criss even though he wasn’t involved in its production, Peter was still credited on drums, which left Anton Fig uncredited

Psycho Circus was the first album to involve all four original members (though Ace Frehley and Peter Criss only appeared on a select few tracks). "You Wanted the Best" is the only KISS song in which lead vocals are shared by the entire lineup

The radio news announcer at the start of “Detroit Rock City” is KISS’ producer Bob Ezrin. The main news report featured a fatal car accident, and is the backstory of the song, which was based on a reportedly true event that happened to a teen on his way to Detroit KISS concert in 1975

Paul’s yodeling at the beginning of “Heaven’s on Fire” is him warning up. He didn’t realize the camera was rolling, but they decided to keep it in the video

A number of songs from Crazy Nights were performed live during its supporting tour, but during and especially immediately following the tour, most of those songs were dropped and were never performed again

The famous song “Rock and Roll All Nite” was inspired by Slade’s “Mama Weer All Crazee Now”

Towards the end of the Reunion/Farewell tour, fans were shocked to see Eric Singer in full Catman costume and makeup, meaning Peter left the band again for the final time

During the music video for “Heaven’s on Fire” Eric Carr pops up behind Paul, and Paul looks at him for a split second before looking back at the camera. Eric did that randomly. It wasn’t planned. Paul’s reaction was genuine

Other

Neil Bogart came up with Peter’s levitating drum set and his exploding drumsticks

The KISS logo is altered in Germany because of the similarities to the Nazi S

Early in KISS’ career, Larry Harris worked an endorsement deal with Gibson guitars, and they provided free guitars that Paul could smash. In exchange, KISS put Gibson on the back of their album covers

Peter “Moose” Oreckinto, a KISS roadie in the early days, was loading Peter Criss’ exploding drumsticks, when one went off, causing a hole in his hand, his chin and his stomach. This accident almost caused Moose to lose his hand, but doctors were able to save it

KISS was nominated for a Grammy in 1999 for Best Hard Rock Performance for their song “Psycho Circus.” (It lost to “Most High” by Page and Plant of Led Zeppelin fame)

Despite the band’s massive 1970s success and again in the late 1990s, Rolling Stone magazine refused to put KISS on its cover until the band’s 40th anniversary in 2013

KISS refused to play shows in their early days without their trademark giant lighted logo. In some venues, its size required it to be stood up on the side of the stage instead of hanging above it

KISS has had ten members during its 50-year existence. Paul Stanley is reportedly the only member to have participated in every song released

The KISS Army started in Indiana when a local radio station refused to play any KISS songs in the early ‘70s. Protesting fans marched outside of the radio station forcing the radio station to play KISS

Irene Dunne and Myrna Loy in Thirteen Women (George Archainbaud, 1932)

Cast: Irene Dunne, Myrna Loy, Ricardo Cortez, Jill Esmond, Mary Duncan, Kay Johnson, Florence Eldridge, C. Henry Gordon, Peg Entwistle, Harriet Hagman, Edward Pawley, Blanche Friderici, Wally Albright. Screenplay: Bartlett Cormack, Samuel Ornitz, based on a novel by Tiffany Thayer. Cinematography: Leo Tover. Art direction: Carroll Clark. Film editing: Charles L. Kimball. Music: Max Steiner.

Myrna Loy was born Myrna Williams in Helena, Montana, but you wouldn't know it from the way Hollywood often cast her at the start of her career in the '20s and '30s. Her role in Thirteen Women is probably the purest example of her work as the stereotypical sinister Eurasian. She plays Ursula Georgi, whom the cop played by Ricardo Cortez scorns as "Half-breed type. Half Hindu, half Javanese, I don't know." (Actually, Cortez himself knew something about crossing ethnic lines: He was born Jacob Krantz in New York, but Hollywood changed his name to capitalize on the vogue for Latin lovers like Rudolph Valentino and Ramon Novarro, and later claimed first that he was French and later that he was born in Vienna.) Ursula seeks revenge on the women who belonged to a sorority at a girls' college and blackballed her when she sought admission. She seeks out a phony seer known as Swami Yogadachi (C. Henry Gordon), whose horoscope readings the girls sought out, and hypnotizes him into sending them poison-pen readings that predict dire events. Two of the girls, the sisters June (Mary Duncan) and May Raskob (Harriet Hagman), have become trapeze artists, and June is so unnerved by the fake reading that she lets May fall to her death during a stunt and goes mad as a consequence. As others fall prey to Ursula's schemes, some of the survivors gather at the home of Laura Stanhope (Irene Dunne), who thinks that their hysteria over the deaths is absurd. Laura is the single mother of a son, Bobby (Wally Albright), who is one of those cloyingly cute movie children -- he calls her "Mumsy." But even Laura's calm vanishes when Ursula makes Bobby her next target. In addition to being stupidly racist, the movie is sheer hokum, a cockamamie blend of revenge thriller and police procedural, and it was not much of a success at the box office, even after RKO cut 14 minutes from it after test screenings -- one of the reasons why we learn the fates of only 10 of the 13 women. One of the performances cut to only four minutes was that of Peg Entwistle, who played Hazel, the one who kills her husband and goes to prison. Entwistle was reportedly so despondent about her movie career that she climbed to the top of one of the letters on the Hollywood sign (reports vary on whether it was the H or the D) and jumped to her death. As for Loy, this was her last outing as a Eurasian vamp: The Thin Man (W.S. Van Dyke, 1934) changed her screen image to that of the witty and soignée wife, most often of William Powell.

(Casually leaves your question about Max/Adrien on read, heh.)

Celeste fc - https://pin.it/3dpcnsi

Noah fc - https://pin.it/2OIIYD0

A little bit of a TW for this one though- Anxiety, money problems, loansharks.

1

Celeste

I stare down at my phone, the short message preview on the lock screen. When I tap it, a long list of messages drop down, all from the same unsaved number. There’s a reason why I keep my phone turned off for days at a time. The newest one sits on top, my cuticle-plucked thumb hovering above the message.

[We’re going to keep this short and sweet. No more friendly reminders from us. Boss is getting tired of your nonsense, and you don't want to see what happens when the boss

I hold the message down, making the longer one pop up fully on the screen.

takes matters into his own hands. You need to get that money out pronto, or you're not going to like what comes next. This is not a warning, it is a threat. $14,893.40 by Sunday, or the boss is coming down.

“Celeste! Your break is over!”

I startle and shove my phone back into my jeans pocket, wiping my clammy hands down on the dark gray apron. “Sorry!” I tuck my stray hair behind my ears, swinging the door open to head back to the cashier counter of the dear old Bean Dream cafe. I’ve been working here since my first year of Thayer, three days a week. The remaining three days are spent at the Sugar Rush bakery, and my last free day is spent counting my payrolls and paying up my still-due student loans.

Sidling up beside my fellow barista co-worker, I plaster on my ‘working smile’. “Welcome to Bean Dream, what can I get you today?”

The customer rattles off her order and I tap it into ther system with habituated accuracy. I have no clue as to why I’m still working in this damn cafe and the bakery. I never really knew what I wanted to do once I got out of school, and everything seems too scary. As much as I dislike the cafe and the bakery, it’s familiar and easy.

My phone weighs down in my pocket. It’s as if every time the little red bubble beside the messaging app ups its number by one, my phone gains another five pounds. I never open the messages from the loaners, and in return, they spray paint my gates and leave threats in my mailbox. They come almost every other night, yelling profanities and throwing things. I throw fifty dollar notes out of the gates and they go away eventually. I’ve grown used to it. I’m not scared anymore—well, most of the time—and if it gets too bad I stay at Amaryllis’s or Darla’s for a night or half a week.

Once they threw rocks at my window. Not the little kinds that boyfriends use to get your attention. Heavy, fist sized ones. I cried, cleaned up the shards of glass, and never spent any money to fix it. It’s difficult to spend money at all when they’re chasing my ass for it.

Lyss and Darla have offered, many many times to pay up for me. And I know they’ve paid for a couple months without telling me. But I don’t want to take their money or burden them. It isn’t their fault, even if Lyss has enough money to burn as firewood.

I get home late that evening, but luckily not late enough to have the sharks outside my house yet. It’s a tiny house, the last one on the end of one of the cheapest neighborhoods in New York. Which, as you can probably guess, still isn’t cheap. Not like I can leave.

Working in silence, I unclip my clothes from the hanger and put them away. Then I step into the shower, letting the tepid water run over my body. All my bills are already high enough, no need to give a reason for the gas bill to be too.

By the time I step out and settle myself onto the small, worn out sofa in the living room, I hear the bikes outside my house. I close my eyes and sigh, mentally preparing myself.

The doorbell doesn’t ring. It never does. I had it removed as soon as the sharks started to come to my house. They shake the unsteady gates, colored in all sorts of hideous hues that stain the pavement behind the gate as well—their doing. They’re shouting, yoo-hooing.

I pull on a sweater, thumbing through my tattered wallet. Then I open the door. Three men stand by the gates, their bikes behind them like wolves.

Holding three hundred dollar notes, I fold them over my thumb. One of them holds their hand out, palm up through the rails of the gate. “Fourteen k?”

“Fourteen point eight,” another one adds with a gleam in his eye.

“Three hundy,” I sigh, arm outstretched and keeping as far away as possible as I drop the notes into his hand. “I’ll pay next week,” I mumble, turning around to walk back into the house.

“Boss is gonna come down if you don’t pay up by Friday, young lady!”

A hurricane of slurs stab my back until I shut the door. Still there, but muffled. Muffled enough to silence them out.

Silencing them out isn’t good enough.

HOLY FRICKITY FRACKITY!!!

THAT WAS SO GOOD. I WANNA KNOW MORE AHHH. YESSS.

also i'm going to casually slide this into the convo - max isn't the love interest is he?

Thayer Legacy Gen 4: Jonas Thayer

Meet my gen 4 legacy heir, Jonas Thayer! (he/him)

Tutored by his grandpa Xavier, who painted with his great-grandmother Vivi, Jonas becomes fascinated with art the second he can pick up a paintbrush. The art world is challenging and often unfair--Jonas finds himself losing steam after being rejected countless times by clients and talent agencies after refusing to budge on his morals. The challenge just makes him hungrier for success. To impress the beautiful and smart astrophysicist Annie, Jonas paints her a piece that she shares online. It goes viral. Jonas rises quickly to the top, but it never goes to his head--how can one man be so perfect? Kind, good, generous, and talented, Jonas tutors neighborhood kids for free and focuses on doing as much good in the world as he can with his newly earned fame.

These are all the photos I have of Jonas with his wife Annie & twin brother Max.

✰ Family tree ✰
