Lost Travelers Informational Guide
Q: What is A Fest?
A fest is a challenge in which participants choose a prompt or prompts from a list compiled by the fest moderator. It’s like telling tales, sharing art, and making music around the campfire. 
Q: Do I have to answer all the prompts?
Of course not, Traveler! That’d be a lot of work! You can answer as many prompts as you want over as many days as you want. You can submit a single work for a single prompt during the whole week, or try to hit them all. 
Q: Do I have to write for this?
Traveler, we aren’t all tale spinners and that’s a good thing! You can respond in any medium you want, art, fic, pod fic, playlists, or anything else you can think of is fine!
Q: If I do write, is there a word limit?
Nope. 
Q: Is shipping allowed?
Let the mod handle it. Seriously, keep the fandom wars away from the campfire.
Yes…just, let’s leave the hatchlings out  of it.
Q: Can I submit NSFW stuff?
Nope.
Q: What if I think someone is participating wrong or has a bad take?
Q: Do I have to tag my works for triggers?
Yes. Is that not just normal courtesy? 
Q: Are spoilers okay here?
Did they not cover that in training? Traveler, spoilers are fine as long as you tag for it.
Q: I have another question.
That’s why there’s an ask button, Traveler.

DPxDC Disney AU Week
One Week. 10 prompts.
Hello! I’m Dis aka @disillusioneddanny and with the help of two of the wonderful mods from the Batpham server—Gil and Kate, I would like to announce the summer writing event DPxDC Disney AU week!!!
WHEN?
August 21-25
HOW?
Each day has its own pair of prompts set in popular Disney themes. You can do something using both prompts, or just one! It’s completely up to you as long as it’s Disney themed!
---
Rules
Tag everything properly so people can avoid or search for your content. Content that is not properly tagged with Triggers or Content Warning will not be reblogged or accepted into the collection
You can create anything! One shots, fanart, anything you can think of that fits the prompt, you can create! If you really hate yourself like Dis, you can do multi chapter fics for each one if you so choose! Ship fics and gen fics are welcome! (Also DW I called myself out when I wrote this lol-Dis)
You can post things for a prompt later in the week, but not before.
You can participate in just one day or the entire week if you want!
No sign ups required, just tag your fics properly so that we can showcase them!
You can @ this blog so I can see it and reblog!
FAQ
What kind of fics are allowed?
Ship fics, family fics, platonic ships are all welcome. Everything MUST be properly tagged.
I have an idea for a Dreamworks au can I do that?
Yes! It’s only called Disney AU week because it sounds good! If you’ve got ideas from Dreamworks, Pixar, or even Studio Ghibli they are more than welcome to be a part of the event!
I can’t do the entire week but I want to do certain days, is that okay?
Absolutely! Make sure to post it the day of or after, don’t post it before the day arrives!
If you have any other questions feel free to send an ask!
Can i do just DP or just DC instead of DPxDC?
absolutely! This may be an event for the DPxDC server but that doesn't mean you have to do DPxDC! If you're more comfortable writing DP content--go for it! Same for DC content! Please still tag the works! We would love to see what you come up with!

Tilly's Titillating Treasures! : A Baldur's Gate 3 Mod list!
Today's Mod list is various Item and Loot mods that add more variety to your inventory! Some of these will be stright up useless items, some sell for a good amount of gold!, and some will also be usable and/or equitable!
While I have your attention, here's a cool site to help Palestine, all you gotta do is click it daily.
All of the mods will add items to be found around Faerun, or for those who want instant access some can be found in the Tutorial Chest Summoning. This Mod allows you to summon the Cartilaginous chest found in the tutorial level, and mods that support this will be available in said chest during the tutorial, or can be summoned later in game.
Tumblr media
Items
JWL One Man's Trash - Inconsequential Loot
Adds 45 Rare Useless items to be found scattered around Faerun. Each item sells for over for over 100 gold, value varies. There s no Tutorial Chest add-on, but it comes with an optional file to add JWL Sceleritas Fel's Coffers of Forlorn Treasures (Lootboxes) to the Loot table.
JWL Deck of Many Things
Adds 3 version of the Deck of Many things to the in game Loot Table. The 3 versions are Tarnished, Incomplete, and Deck of Many Things. You can draw a card once per Long Rest, and there are a total of 22 possible affects. You can find them in 3 separate locations in each act.. There is a Tutorial Chest add-on.
Tumblr media
Gear and Equipment
Ancient Weaponry (104 random loot items)
Adds 104 Lootable Weapons to be found all around Faerun! Currently, the mod features: 25(10/9/4/2) daggers, 8(2/2/2/2) flails, 8(3/2/2/1) sickles, 21(11/6/3/1) shortbows, 30(15/10/4/1) shields, 12(6/3/2/1) handaxes.This mod pairs with Randomized Loot mod, unless you want the Tutorial Chest verion. (I would like it to be known I copied the weapon rarieties over thinking that color coding would copy too LIKE A FOOL!!!!!!!!!!! But i loved it enough i went through and did it anyways)
Ancient Armoury (50 random loot items)
Adds 30 Clothing and 20 Light pieces of equipable gear to find around in the Early Game. There is a Roleplaying and Cheat version of each. Comes with a Tutorial Chest add-on
Ancient Jewelry (110 random loot items)
Adds 110 pieces of jewelry to the in game Loot Table! From the mod page "from ancient wizards, necromancers, cults and kingdoms, meticulously crafted and with a history of their own." Each item is Equipable and comes with its own affects! Mod comes with two versions Roleplay and Cheat, Cheat is available in the Tutorial Chest!
Master's Cloaks (100 random loot items)
Adds 100 Equipable Cloaks to the in game Loot Table. Each Cloak has its own themes and affacts! Comes in bothe Roleplay and Cheat version. Cheat is available in the Tutorial Chest add-on.
JWL Discordant Instruments - New Equipment Slot
Replaces the Instrument Equipment Slot with the new Trinket Slot! Adds in over 100 new Trinkets, each with their own Abilities, Spells, and Affects! Comes with optional Tutorial Chest add-on.
Tumblr media
Looting Systems
JWL Drop All The Loot
A personal favorite of mine, this mod makes all vendors who are killed.... well drop all their loot! Comes with an optional file to make them drop even more.
JWL Art Dealer
Makes art worth something!!!! Another one of my favorites! I hated picking up an immaculate painting ad finding out it was only worth 30 Gold. What the fuck man? Their weight is also increased and I think that's fair considering I sold 4 for like 2k Gold the other day.
JWL Sceleritas Fel's Coffers of Forlorn Treasures (Lootboxes)
Adds Lootbozes to be found around Faerun that contain random Loot. It may drop Weapons, Armor, Clothes, or Items. Some NPCs can drop these boxes as well. To claim your loot you break the seal! This mod does require at least one Plugin that supplies loot. Comes with optional file to not have Loot automatically equip. No Tutorial Chest add-on.
Randomized Equipment Loot v3
Makes the Loot you find around Faerun randomized. No one thing will ever be in the same place again! This is configurable with other loot mods as well!
No Empty Chests - More Loot
I really like the description for this one so here ya go "Changes all empty chests to have loot, ranging from trash to treasure" No Tutorial Chest add-on
Tumblr media
Sorting
Bags Bags Bags
Adds 23 i containers that will automatically sort out your inventory for you. I will warn that it takes your Potions and Scrolls off your hot bar. They're still plenty usable in your inventory, but I would recommend keeping important scrolls and Healing Potions outside of it. Comes in the Tutorial Chest.
Preemptively Label Containers
Tells you if they're empty or not before you open them! Also tells you the number of items in your container, this mod gets a little confused when used with No Empty Chests.
Bags of Holding - Increase weight limit x2 x3 x4
Adds 3 Bags equipped in the Instrument Slot. Comes in 2x/3x/4x carry weight options. Does not seem to come with a Tutorial Chest add-on.
Simple Sorting Bags
Comes with 16 bags that will automatically sort out your equipment. You can find these in either the Tutorial Chest or with Thief Vendors.
Stackable Items
Makes all items able to stack. This can get a little annoying with matching armor sets or weapons that you're trying to equip onto other characters. Base loot stack size is increased from 20 to 100. Comes with a default highlighting option if you don;t like holding down Alt.
Tumblr media
As always this post will be updated if I the mods update or I find anything new or interesting!
Sorry these mostly ended up being the same two guys... I didn't realize i had so many of their mods til i made this.....
Dividers made by @saradika-graphics !!

saimota week 2023 is real babey
boy howdy! this is late and i know it’s late and i am sorry. no graphic to show for myself either. i (mod tox) am just doing a real waddle of shame onto here to give you these prompts.
but hello!! salutations! happy 2023-- saimota week will be running again this year from march 19th through march 25th, so please get excited with me!
here are the prompts:
day one (march 19): shadow / sunlight / intensity day two (march 20): heart / body / intellect day three (march 21): wisterias / evening / sanctuary day four (march 22): fight / resolution / tears day five (march 23): lucid / nightmare / terminal day six (march 24): support / growth / reciprocity day seven (march 25): pre-canon / post-canon / free space
as always, be sure to tag all entries with [ # saimota week 2023 ] and [ # saimota week ] and also make sure that you @ MENTION THIS BLOG so that i can reblog all of your entries. if you post something and the blog doesn’t reblog it within a day, feel free to message me @toxicpineapple and i’ll make sure to get on that for you.
i’ll be putting guidelines + relevant details below the cut. stay tuned for reblogs and annoying countdown posts as the week draws closer, and we’ll look forward to seeing your entries once again!
1. late entries will be accepted and boosted with no end deadline! please feel free to keep posting content with these prompts and for this event long after it has ended, we will happily continue to boost anything that you put out after the fact. additionally, the prompts are guidelines, but their use is not mandatory. you are welcome to interpret the prompts as you’d like, and even disregard the prompts altogether if that suits you best.
2. works featuring saimota in a polyamorous relationship with other characters (for example, romantic training trio, amasaimota, akasaimota, etc) will ABSOLUTELY be accepted! obviously this week is for appreciating the romantic relationship between shuichi and kaito, but it’s okay if the other partners get the same amount of screen time! furthermore, background characters and relationships will also be allowed.
3. works featuring shuichi and kaito in a queer platonic relationship will be permitted. however, as this is a romantic ship week at its heart, please refrain from posting content about their friendship or about them as best friends. it’s okay though if the themes in your works are subtle or not overtly romantic.
4. the unauthorised use, reproduction, or replication of the works of other creators during this week will not be tolerated. this includes but is not limited to plagiarism of fanfiction, tracing, uncredited edits, edits with credit but without permission, parodies of other existing fanworks, et cetera. it’s okay to draw fanart from saimota fics you like unless the author is uncomfortable with it, but it’s not okay to take another person’s hard work and use it for your own clout and if we see you reposting uncredited art we will BLOCK. (”i found it on pinterest” or “the source is right here” are not replacements for sources AND permission.)
5. be respectful towards all other entries and participants in the challenge. if someone who is participating in the week is also hating on your entries we encourage you to let us know and they will be blocked as well. we’re all here to have fun, there’s no need to cause drama.
6. nsfw content will not be accepted for this week. however, if you are a person who has posted nsfw content in the past, you are still allowed to participate in the week even from the blog which has posted such content. please do not use your nsfw account to participate if you have one, though.
7. aus and crossovers are absolutely accepted and encouraged.
8. trans headcanons of any kind, including transfem headcanons, will be accepted. cis genderbends however will not. we do not seek to place judgment on anybody who creates that content, it’s just not the kind of thing we want to see for our event. we invite you to create it on your own time.
that’s all i’ve got! thank you for tuning in, and once again, we look forward to seeing your entries come march! thank you loves! <3

HP Rec Fest, Day 30 ❄️
Happy new year!! This is the last post for the @hprecfest daily prompts for which I'll be reccing fic, so the complete list of Tomarrymort daily recs for this month is listed in its entirety below! The 31st prompt is "a fav amongst favs", which I am physically incapable of narrowing down to a handful of fics, so I'll just end on Day 30 🤍
Thank you to the fest mods for suggesting such lovely prompts and running such a well-organized fest — what a great idea to celebrate the fantastic writing found in this fandom, and I found myself with tons of great new fics to read, particularly in other ships and rarepairs that I would have never come across otherwise!
*
Day 30: A Pre-Canon Fic
Reconciling with Death by Madame_Psychosis (M, 26k, complete)
Summary: Featuring a dead girl in a forest, little-soldier-boys, some tenuous grasps on reality, straw mothers, a ghost in a bathroom and, slowly and sadly, kindness from a boy who’s just passing through time. Why I rec it for this prompt: A really unique take on Harry travelling back in time to 1941 to Tom's school days. I love the non-linear style that this fic is written in, which really enhances the build-up of the murder mystery and all the psychological suspense.
*
Animus, Anima by @maiathoustra (M, 145k, complete)
Summary: In limbo, Harry doesn't choose to go back to the Forbidden Forest to face Voldemort. He makes another decision and finds himself in a baby's body: little Tom Riddle. Years pass that intimately bind the orphan and his imaginary friend into a hopeless and incestuous relationship. Indeed, all the odd events of Tom Riddle's life happen in spite of Harry's presence: could he be the one who provokes them? Why I rec it for this prompt: Another unique take on Harry being sent back in time, this time as a disembodied voice in Tom's head as the most important part of his journey from childhood to when he becomes Lord Voldemort. An incredible exploration on what it means for two souls to love each other so intensely, and the ending is absolutely gutting in a beautiful way. Definitely have tissues on hand for this long, beautiful, angsty read!
*

𝗥𝗨𝗟𝗘𝗦
I hate that it's come to this. 
𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗗 𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗡𝗘𝗗 𝗥𝗨𝗟𝗘𝗦 𝗕𝗔𝗦𝗘𝗗 𝗢𝗡 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘𝗦
Be kind to each other. I don't take this blog that seriously to the point where I am dead set on every detail of the anime/manga being a lengthy discourse post. I adore Tobi and love Obito and I just want to have fun with him. I try to be canon complaint and RP Obito to the best of my understanding. But at the end of the day this is anRP blog not a meta blog. 
That being said don't send me hate of any nature. You run the risk of being dragged/publicly humiliated and def blocked. Threats of violence will dealt with accordingly. Threats of any kind will be dealt with as a group. 
Don't follow me if you're a minor. Which ESP means NO smut if you're a minor. I am not into RPing with anyone under 18. 
I will not give a shred of my attention to anyone who brings drama to my blog. This is a golden rule and everything stems from this. It shouldn't be so hard to ingrain in anyone's brain. No death threats. No rape threats. No doxxing threats. NO MANIPULATION. No going behind my back to manipulate and/or start a war. The only one you will be humiliating is yourself. Do not do one thing and then act surprised when it equals a reaction. Need to incite hate and fan the flames of war? GET THERAPY. 
The only pathetic points you establish when you send hate is A.) How big of a loser you are, B.) How vehemently jealous you are, C.) How utterly and sadly lonely you are. Sicko.
Do not MANIPULATE others into getting your way. Do not manipulate others into doing your dirty work. Do not send others to push your agenda on your behalf. Do not throw others around to anonymously send snide hints. Obito is NOT exclusive to ANYONE. (Except to Rin-Anon but Rin-Mod and I had a lengthy conversation about this and we both decided not to be exclusive) If you weasel your agenda through my blog or brainwash others to approach me with 'why I'm not writing Obito to be exclusive to you or to your desired effect', automatic block for life. This includes everyone involved.
If I have you blocked, and you make a new account, I will be naming names. On a brand new shiny post. 
If you continue to stalk my blog after I have you blocked/you have me blocked, and you still stick your nose in, I will be naming names. I will know when you have my blog blocked and still stalk me and use MY posts to further your own inspiration. Have some self respect and grow up. This goes for all my blogs, and all our blogs. It's very obvious when blocked blogs still skulk around like losers. 
If you come after my friends, we WILL come after you. My anon blogs etc., friends I've made on this site, are my family and NO ONE comes before them. This extends past my anon family. ALL my friends are included in this.
If you find you are pathetically codependent on a 2D drawing, GO TO THERAPY. It is not up to RPers to fulfill your codependent fantasies, especially when we are half your age and you're years ahead of me and expect me to be your therapy vehicle and only your therapy vehicle. It's pretty odd for older users who I should be looking up to as examples, to suddenly be angry at me for not getting their way. And lash out and humiliate yourself. This was the case very recently with a close friend of mine and a much older blog and how cringe. My friend is 21 and I'm 21. This much older blog basically made her (my friend) feel like shit for not them giving exclusive rights. I feel second hand embarrassment just experiencing it with her.
The above rule does not apply to most RPers. It's ok to love characters as long as you're having fun.
Do not I mean DO NOT come to my blog and dictate to me what I should be doing WITH MY BLOG. NEVER. EVER give me instructions on how to proceed with my blog. DO NOT QUESTION WHY I RUN MY BLOG HOW I RUN IT. IN ANY CAPACITY. WHO I RP WITH WHO I TALK TO WHO I BLOCK. The only thing you have a right to is your own blog. That is a level of bullying I WILL NOT TOLERATE. Dictating who I should be saying sorry to because they didn't get their way, is a hard pass.
Never use mental illness as an excuse and a justification for your actions. Not on my watch.  
DO NOT THREATEN ANY OF US WITH SUICIDE IF YOU DON'T GET YOUR WAY. This has happened to Naruto Anon Mod in the past. It's emotional blackmail and plainly means you need extensive therapy.
If I post art and you steal it, repost it, claim it, etc I will drag you to hell. 
Do not self insert your replies on closed threads.
Be patient with my schedule. I try to answer asks as they come but I only just finished college and my summer will be spent with a job.
Have an RP HC? DM ME! Let's flesh it out.
Do not associate/tag me on posts with these blogs: sasori-rp, shisui-uchiha-rp, izumi-uchiha-rp, naruto-uzumaki-rp, kushina-uzumaki-rp, sassykinzonline. I will block you. For further details DM me. 
I have IP tracking enabled. Bring it boy.
Asks are tagged #obianswersasks. Posts will be tagged accordingly. Tag list is forthcoming.
(Smut Guidelines coming) 
DMs will be open on and off. At times I may leave them off but if you send an ask I'll turn DMs on.♡ 
I will edit these rules as I move forward with my blog as I see fit. I am zero interested in your useless opinions of my rules. Block me. Nothing on my blog is up for debate.

Not a question, more appreciation! Thank you for having so much amazing and appropriate clothes for elders! I have always struggled finding nice stuff for them!
THANK YOU
uh I had more to say about this
When making elder cc (mostly EF but I’m looking to do much more EM stuff too, yay grandpa), I do try to highlight shapes and choose patterns, that - to me - scream: “I’ve lived a good long life. I’m not 21 anymore and I don’t want to be. But I’m no schlub.”
All About Style has always been a huge style inspiration for me for grandmother fashion. That site’s EF clothing was the perfect mix of quirky, fashion-conscious and matronly-cool clothes. Judie had immaculate taste! There’s a reason her cc was beloved, even after years of play.
Much of existing elder cc is on alpha meshes. Those are fine and good! But I feel like elder sims need to be dressed in ‘bulkier’ stuff. It just makes sense to me. There’s tons of older elder CC that I see and like the idea of, but it’s painted on a mesh that is little more than the base EF/EM body shape on top. Idk, skintight sweaters on grandma or grandpa just kind of give me the willies. 😵‍💫 It’s not realistic either.
Plenty of elder cc is also Maxis match. Perfectly fine! Love those shapes way more. There are lots and lots of age conversions that look great on elders. But, I feel like our elders deserve more than a copy and paste of what we already have on offer for adult sims. So, I retexture those age conversions. The clothes just need to be stuffier, with more mature colors and patterns. Just, have more of a mature “vibe”.
On a more tinfoil hat note (lol), I think some simmers do not like to play elders at all, and that has everything to do with fearing age itself. And not having a worthy selection of clothes for them, that too. 😂
But I mean, there are mods to skip elderhood entirely. And a clothing mod to make elders have the standard AF chest instead of a sagging one exists, and that has existed forever. It’s like one of the oldest mods out there! And a mod to make them not have the “elder” walk. All things to make them less “oldpersony”.
Elders are thought of as being boring or unimportant sims, something to avoid, unappealing. I think that says way more about how people feel about aging themselves. But I think it’s much more freeing to embrace and enjoy a stage of life that I’ll face myself.
TL;DR: thank you
Tumblr media
And let me know who I should look to next for style inspiration. I’ve already gained inspirash from: the Golden Girls, the oracle from the matrix, Eartha Kitt as madame Zeroni in Holes, probably anything Stevie Nicks has worn recently, anything Judi Dench has worn as M in the Bond movies, André Leon Talley (rip), Sag Harbor, Eddie Bauer and Squaw Valley sweaters and long skirts from the 90’s, what Diane Keaton is wearing in any movie, any era, Guinan from Star Trek: Next Gen (slay, the colors especially), thinking if it would look good on current day Jane Seymour then go for it, my friend whose mom is a high school art teacher, a sprinkle of Mrs. Doubtfire, a sprinkle of Miranda Priestly, and of course, anything Prue Leith wears.

WIP WEDNESDAY - 21/06/23
(I mean it’s technically Friday now between timezones and spoons but have this otherwise I’ll keep forgetting) My first WIP Wednesday! Thanks @theviridianbunny​ for the tag! I’ve been really getting stuck into modding - as well as falling into my usual mod habit of ‘start like six project at once and end up with a million WIP files' but I guess I’ll talk about the major ones.
Graphic design is my passion ...
(Long) rambling about mods I'm making + things I've learned below the cut~
Tumblr media
My V’s tatt project is still ongoing, and I’ve (somewhat begrudgingly) been trying out Substance Painter to work on bits of it, mainly polishing seams between UV maps. It’s definitely got a lot of benefits, especially for graphic placement in really tricky areas (like anywhere in the entire head mesh region for example) but I still think a lot of the heavy work will still be done in Photoshop so I’ll probably be writing up both experiences with them when I do that tutorial I keep hinting at for complex tatt work. I’ve started drafting a tumblr tutorial but I wonder if that’s the best format, maybe a PDF? Google doc? Github wikis look cool? (tho I think I need to pay for that) - if y’all got suggestions for tutorial formats pls let me know!
As for the other arguably overly-ambitious-project-where-I-bit-off-more-than-I-could-chew ...
Tumblr media
H A I R.
Hair has been the bane of my existence for about the past week( ... weeks? Maybe two?), most of it involving cursing, a lot of reverse-engineering game meshes and smashing my head against blender. But if not already evident from my monowire post - I am a stubborn bitch with too much time on my hands so even though there were at least two moments where I wanted to curl up on the floor under my desk and just stay there - we got there.
This all started because my favourite hair mod which I cannot split from my V’s identity was acting funky and the shape of it had been altered since a physics update. It wasn’t her anymore. So I needed new hair. I tried editing the existing hair. I tried importing the old hair mesh. I tried so many things and they didn’t work out one way or they threw a million errors or there were an obnoxious amount of verts.
I even tried looking for replacement mod hair. None of them fit, all of them felt too ‘clean’ for my V. So I just concluded: FINE. I’ll make my own damn hair. From scratch. At least then I’ll actually KNOW what’s going on with the mesh, right?
Problem with hair is tutorials are very limited in respect to Cyberpunk, so I had to learn a lot of this by myself and looking at other processes used for building game hair. I’ve had a previous stint in game design at uni but it was very introductory and more broad-strokes concepts not specific stuff like what ‘real time hair’ is and how you actually go about placing hair-cards (there’s a million different ways btw) but after another 3 days smashing my head against blender I finally got shit to work to a satisfactory level using hair tools for blender and the particle hair grooming system (not the 3.5 blender system, maybe more on that at some point).
Putting together the hair cards I was 120% convinced this was going to blow up in my face, primarily through vert count. But this hair tool plugin? Alarmingly efficient. I was frequently checking my work against Alt's hair mesh (one I was planning on rigging to) and here's the final-ish stats -
Tumblr media
This is with only Alt's hair mesh selected (no cap) and then only my mesh(s - lots of layering to build it up), and by comparison I felt I'd built up the density of a chinchilla. This is not a brag, this is mostly genuine confusion over how efficient this plugin is, all I did was smack around hair curves. It did all the UV mapping junk on the fly.
Although structurally complete, I still consider this a WIP (yes I know there's a reeeeal fun vert funkiness in that second render, it's been fixed) since I'm having to go back and fine-tune some of the UV's the plugins mapped that I'm not happy with and generally figuring out my density problem because if anything, after putting it in-game it felt too dense.
Because yes, somehow I got it in game.
WITH. PHYSICS.
Tumblr media
This may have driven me absolutely up the wall between having to learn blender from scratch then what the heck real time hair is and how that works etc. etc. but ... god, seeing her move back from the mirror and just feeling that instant catharsis of 'IT'S HER!' made it so. Damn. Worth it.
It looks too thick - this might be because I chucked in the 'doubled' feature Wolvenkit comes with because I hadn't spent any time doing backfaces. But it also might be because it's black? That's going to need investigating.
The physics need a lot of work too, I did a pretty rushed weight painting job last night on a merged version of the mesh because I was worried whether it was even viable and I'd already dumped an insane amount of hours into this between trying to salvage the old hair and building a new one (with some more bells and whistles. Mainly - curly). That wasn't without it's issues -
Tumblr media
This almost fucking cracked me, given this was one of the issues I was experiencing before trying to fix an existing mesh mod. Turns out I was just being dumb and forgetting to export the armature, which I'd thought I wasn't supposed to do after having blender throw a bunch of errors on other hair attempts. I gave it a try after one last shot and boom. Worked. (I dunno what those errors were about man but now I know armature? very important).
Will I release this hair? no damn clue, depends on if I can get it to a level I feel is 'releasable'. I already know what I'm calling it though - Venatrix her side-handle I've decided on.
I look forward to adapting it into maybe a comb-back version, as well as a tied up version, so I can show off both her undercut + have the option of NOT hiding every damn tatt I've obsessed over placing on her neck haha.
In other news -
Tumblr media
My much-needed wacom tablet replacement arrived (as well as other things I was looking forward to 👀) meaning my Wacom Cintiq, workhorse of ten years can finally enjoy her retirement. Her controls were getting funky, she had a few dead pixels but man. I'm convinced they won't make them like her ever again. Either way she's done unfortunately - upgrading my monitor to 2k made this painfully obvious. I don't think it's even running in full HD, it's that old. And with Phantom Liberty coming out this year? I'm probably going to need a new videocard and DVI compatibility isn't really a thing anymore.
So for future I think I'll just stick to the basic tablet set up, invest in screens. Also now I FINALLY know what her hair is gonna look like and with the tablet here, I can get back to work on the tattoo bodysuit.
Anyways, that's it for now! (Jesus Christ did you really read all of this? If you did you're a fucking trooper). Sorry for the extended ramble but MAN I did a lot, I needed to yell.
Till next time Chooms! Thanks again @theviridianbunny for the tag~ <3
Oh shit wait, have the blender renders before I forget because hahah I figured out how to do that too lol -

Welcome to our 2023 Valentine’s Day Gift Exchange!
What is the Obikin Events Valentine’s Day Gift Exchange? 
Well, it’s much like any holiday or fandom exchange where a person will sign up to create something fannish for someone else who signs up, and in turn will be given a gift created just for them! 
We do ask if you’re thinking about signing up for this, that you keep our minimums and schedule in mind, as these dates and requirements are for everyone, so no exceptions will be made.
The Schedule:
Signups will open on: January 1, at 12:00AM US EST.
Signups Close: January 8, 11:59PM US EST.
Assignments will be out by: January 10, 11:59PM US EST.
Works are due by: February 9, 11:59PM US EST.
The Pinch Hitters will be contacted and given assignments on: February 10, 11:59PM US EST.
Gifts will be revealed on: February 14, 12:00PM US EST!
Authors will be revealed: February 21, 11:59AM US EST!
What are the basic rules for this Valentine’s Day Gift Exchange?
You must have an Ao3 account to sign-up for this exchange, as that is where we will be running this. Please contact the mods if you would like help getting an invite if you need one.
Works will remain anonymous until the reveal date, so please do not share or talk about what you are creating for your giftee until after the creator reveals have happened.
You must be 18+ to sign-up.
YOU MUST TAG APPROPRIATELY – while something may not bother you, that is not the same for someone else, so please, please ensure you tag appropriately or leave a note at the top of the fic letting people know that ‘x’, ‘y’ or ‘z’ thing is going to appear within your creation.
While we have no maximums for this exchange, these are our hard minimums you must meet:
Fic: 500 words.
Art: a clean sketch that is at least 500x500 pixels.
How does the Valentine’s Gift Exchange work?
When you sign-up you will list at least 3 prompts, likes/do not want’s – please be thorough when filling those out to ensure you receive what you want and not something that is a no for you – in your requests.
(example prompts: 1, Obi-wan meets Anakin by spilling coffee on him; 2, Sith Anakin tries to court Jedi Master Obi-wan; 3, Anakin helps his twins make up valentines cards for their second grade class, while hopelessly pining for their teacher and wishing he could give the man his own.)
(example likes/dislikes: likes - bottom Anakin, soft dom Obi-wan, canon verse, fix-its, happy endings | dislikes: bottom Obi-wan, modern AUs, no happy endings, mentions of Anidala or Quiobi)
In your offers, you will list what you are comfortable creating for and what you are not.
(example: I’m comfortable writing canon verse/compliant/divergence, fix-its, Sith/Never a Jedi AUs, etc… | I’m not comfortable writing reverse or age swap fics, modern AUs)
Please note if you are open to receiving treats or not.
Treats are a bonus, not something creators need to fill!
Once you receive your asignment, you begin creating!
Q&A:
What happens if I don’t like any of the prompts I receive?
While mods will be double checking that 'do not wants' do not conflict with their matches requests, the prompts are meant to inspire you. As long as you do not write something which a person has marked 'DNW' and suit the spirit of the exchange.
Can my work be multi-chaptered? 
Absolutely it can! But it must be a completed work when you fulfil your assignment by the deadline.
What kind of art can I make? 
While you may opt into receiving nontraditional art for treats – such as gifs, fanvideos, fanmixies, podfics, graphics/manips – we do ask that you stick to the more traditional fanart/writing for filling the main assignment.
Do we have to fill out all prompts when signing up?
No, you simply need to fulfill one of the prompts given. 
I’m excited to talk about my prompts, can I?
No. This exchange is meant to be a secret, so please do not discuss who you’re creating for in a public setting. If you have a trusted friend you talk over ideas with, that is alright but please don’t publicly speak about it. 
I’ve signed up but life has happened and I don’t think I’ll be able to finish my gift. What should I do?
Please contact the mods as soon as you realize this so that we may contact a pinch hitter and give them the maximum amount of time to work on the gift. 
I’d like to sign up as a pinch hitter, how can I do that?
If you’d like to sign up as a pinch hitter, please DM the mods with your Ao3 handle and the best way to contact you and we’ll add you to our list!
I know I won’t be able to fulfill my gift but a friend has said they could, can I just give them my assignment?
No. Please do not do this. If you know you will not be able to finish, please contact the mods and not just give your assignment away to a friend.
Can I only list 3 prompts?
No, you can absolutely list more, but the minimum we ask for is three. 
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to send in an ask on Tumblr, a DM on Twitter, an ask in the discord server or even an email to [email protected].
May the Obikin Be With You.

Sims tag
Thanks to those who tagged me~
1. what’s your favorite sims death?
satellite. It's so sudden and random and weird. Death be that way sometimes.
2. Alpha CC or Maxis Match?

3. Do you cheat when your sims gain weight?
hell nah, I have too many skinny bitches in my game as it is
4. Do you use move objects?

5. Favorite mod?
whichever one makes the hobby NPCs go fuck themselves
6. First expansion/game/stuff pack you got?
I got university from the library lol but I think the first one I owned was open for business, which was a revelation at the time. I always wanted nightlife but was too afraid to ask my mom for it cause it looked SEXY. now, as an adult, can confirm nightlife is the best one. but I am a sexual deviant, so.
7.  Do you pronounce “live mode” like aLIVE or LIVing?
in my head it's like "aLIVE" but from a linguistic perspective I gotta concede that the "LIVing" pronunciation makes more sense because it's consistent with the other modes (buy/build) which are verbs not adjectives
8. Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made?
I hate all my loser sims I guess I have a sweet spot for a child sim I made back when I was a child. She lived in a trailer, had big droopy eyes like Brittany Spears, and was named Miami.
9.  Have you made a simself?
yeah I basically always have one but she's a townie. to play her would be weird. here's the bitch
Tumblr media
10. What sims traits do you give yourself?
sloppy and lazy yeeeeeee

the custom mohawk colors bro
12. Favorite EA hair?

Tumblr media
13. Favorite life stage?
I like teens, they're so sassy, getting them to do their homework sucks but also unlike children they can just get bad grades, nobody cares
14. Are you a builder or are you in it for the game play?
I'm a builder but I'm trying not to give up on gameplay. It's not working.
15. Are you a CC creator?
not really, I like recoloring things to look like an 80s train-wreck though
16. Do you have any simblr friends/a sims squad?
.....there are sim-cliques?
17. What’s your favorite game (1,2,3,4)?
sims 3 is hideous (sorry bout it), sims 4 has lovely landscapes but the gameplay is akin to watching paint dry. I'm sure I'll love the sims 1 once I get around to playing it. I like creepy weird stuff.
18. Do you have any sims merch?
i wouldnt let myself be seen dead in sims merch also fuck EA
19. Do you have a youtube for sims?
I have too much CC to also run a screen recorder without tons of crashing lol I have no self control
20. How has your “sims style” changed throughout your years of playing?
with every passing day i am more of a builder and more of a maximalist also i keep making animal sims now like some kind of furry *shudders*
21. What’s your origin ID?
lol just say no to origin
Tumblr media
22. Who’s your favorite cc creator?

Thanks for tagging me @eulaliasims
1. What’s your favourite sims death? Never thought about having a favourite, maybe the cowplant? Or maybe when death results from something usually mundane like hail or lightning (I’ve had that one).
2. Alpha CC or Maxis Match? Mainly Maxis match, but I think of my style as like 90% MM and 10% semi-realistic (more on the BB side) because I do find the occasional thing that fits in with my style from that aesthetic. And I feel like my style is somewhere between the true Maxis match and the cartoony style.
3. Do you cheat when your sims gain weight? No? Seems odd!
4. Do you use move objects? Constantly, it’s on more than it’s off. I have an alias set up in my cheat file.
5. Favorite mod? Wow that’s a hard one to narrow down, so I’m gonna choose a few. Based on what has the biggest and most widespread effects, I’d say ACR, Community Lot time, and the whole Traits system (that’s cheating since it’s a million mods but I don’t care lol)
6. First expansion/game/stuff pack you got? Would have been the very first pack, so University I guess! When the games came out I was living at home still and my mom played too, so we always got them relatively soon. Uni came out a month or so before my birthday so I suspect I probably got it as a gift that year.
7. Do you pronounce “live mode” like aLIVE or LIVing? LIVE as in LIVING, @eulaliasims is 1000% correct.
8. Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made? So not counting born in game? Sort of a tie but I’ve always been very fond of Joshua and Roxanne Lewis, they were two of Brightmaple’s founders - the first ones I thought up, and first ones I created.
9. Have you made a simself? Yes, in my old neighbourhood, I was a vampire along with the Sim version of my cousin. We lived in a huge Victorian mansion I built where I sent all the vampires in the hood to live.
10. What sim traits do you give yourself? Brooding, couch potato, good, loves the heat, hopeless romantic
11. Which is your favorite EA hair color? Don’t really have one I guess.
12. Favorite EA hair? Also don’t really have one lol.
13. Favorite life stage? Probably adult because the most happens, but I also really enjoy toddler which is a hot take in most circles.
14. Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay? Both! The building is fun and a creative outlet for me, but I do it so I can create more immersive and enjoyable worlds to play in too.
15. Are you a CC creator? Yes but on and off, I do it purely for fun and primarily for things I want in my game. So I take long breaks of making nothing at all, when I’m not in the mood.
16. Do you have any simblr friends/a sim squad? I wouldn’t really say so? I do chat with people from time to time and have lots of great acquaintances on here! I find it to be a generally very nice community. But I usually find online friendship difficult since I find it harder to read people purely through text with no baseline for knowing them irl, for things like tone of voice/mannerisms/body language and just general vibe.
17. What’s your favorite game? (1, 2, 3, or 4) Well I think it’s pretty obvious TS2 has ruined all other games for me (not just other Sims games either).
18. Do you have any sims merch? nope
19. Do you have a YouTube for sims? Actually yes! For speed builds.
20. How has your “sim style” changed throughout your years of playing? Gotten more Maxis match in terms of aesthetic, if you scroll back to like, pre-2017 on my blog you can see that for sure. For play style it’s a lot more structured - pure rotational so ages sync, more wants based, paying a lot more attention to their personalities etc.
21. What’s your Origin ID? I’ve been playing with either the RPC Launcher or a no-CD crack since the day I switched to the UC, so although I do have an Origin ID I’ve literally used it probably twice ever. So no idea!
22. Who’s your favorite CC creator? There’s too many to pick!
23. How long have you had a simblr? My very first Simblr post was July 31, 2016. Before that I had a bit of a hiatus from playing for a few years, and before that I was on Livejournal/Dreamwidth.
24. How do you edit your pictures? My photo editing program (PSP8) is literally from the era of TS2 itself, which seems appropriate. It’s always worked perfectly well for me - I downloaded Photoshop a couple times but always found doing the same actions clunky and unfamiliar, so I stick with what I know. I adjust curves, saturation, and add a very slight (probably imperceptible) bloom effect. Then I crop in, and I resize by width - meaning my pics are always the same width, but the height varies slightly. I prioritize getting everything into the frame that I want, and don’t really care if the heights are different.
25. What expansion/game/stuff pack do you want next? If I were making up hypothetical TS2 EP’s? I wouldn’t have minded something like Superstar from the Sims 1, having my Sims become famous (if it was done more like OFB/hands on style rather than “off to work in a carpool for the day” style) would have been pretty fun.
26. What expansion/game/stuff pack is your favorite so far? That’s really tough to pick. Probably Seasons (such world building!), Freetime (the hobbies system adds so much depth for me!) or Open For Business (my whole hood has no EA careers and only businesses sooo...) or Pets?? I love my Sims having pets. They’re all so good!
I’m seeing this going around, so please allow me to tag @you if you haven’t been yet and wanna do this!

Sims Tag
Thanks for the tag, @kalux-sims!
1. What’s your favourite sims death? Oh, we're going for big ones right off the bat, huh? Uhhh, I'm gonna go with satellite.
2. Alpha CC or Maxis Match? Yes.
3. Do you cheat when your sims gain weight? why would you, tho
4. Do you use move objects? I use moveObjects so much, I have a shortcut for it in my userstartup.cheat file.
5. Favorite mod? I'm going to second @deedee-sims and say Community Time. It's really one I consider essential to the way that I play my game.
6. First expansion/game/stuff pack you got? Pets!! Which is funny, because I still have to make a conscious effort to actually add pets to my sims' households.
7. Do you pronounce “live mode” like aLIVE or LIVing? It's LIV mode and I will die on this hill. no I won't
8. Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made? Made? Oh no, I'm not sure. These days I mostly play sims who were born in-game. Probably Original Maria or Jackie.
9. Have you made a simself? Ya; in the last version of Middleground, she was actually a townie.
10. What sim traits do you give yourself? Bookworm, cat person, loves the outdoors, neurotic, vegetarian
11. Which is your favorite EA hair color? I don't like any of those ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
12. Favorite EA hair? Uhhh, the short Season hair with the little half ponytail.
13. Favorite life stage? Adult? idk!
14. Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay? Both; sometimes I like one more than the other, but it's pretty even.
15. Are you a CC creator? Weirdly, I think I have to say yes to this question now. Pretty much just defaults and the odd recolor. I do retextures sometimes, but I have to be in the right mood for it. :p
16. Do you have any simblr friends/a sim squad? Yes? But I realize I'm not the most vocal/active person, and I'm definitely not on any of the discords around because I have ~~anxiety~~.
17. What’s your favorite game? (1, 2, 3, or 4) *gestures at blog* is it even a contest?
18. Do you have any sims merch? no
19. Do you have a YouTube for sims? noooooooooo
20. How has your “sim style” changed throughout your years of playing? It's definitely gotten a lot more maxis-match. More detailed too, I think.
21. What’s your Origin ID? haha, like I remember that.
22. Who’s your favorite CC creator? Too many to name!
23. How long have you had a simblr? *checks archive* At least nine years; I know I lurked a bit before posting, so call it ten even?
24. How do you edit your pictures? Photoshop. I have a crop & resize action that sharpens them very slightly afterward, and then my base lighting action simply boosts the shadows and contrast a bit; I have a copy of that but with brightening added for dim pictures. For posed, "fancy" pictures, I will edit them individually to get whatever effect I want.
25. What expansion/game/stuff pack do you want next? Space EP, space EP! I know we're not actually getting new EPs for TS2, but I can dream.
26. What expansion/game/stuff pack is your favorite so far? hmmm. Seasons, I think. Love me some gardening and rain.

Hey! :) I have a question, how did you change lifespan for your sims? I see your sim kids meet grandparents but mine somehow usually do not live that long :D Love all your gameplays, many times you inspired me to open game and play, cause your game pics looks soo nice and interesting!
Hello my friend! I am so honored my little gameplay can inspire you to play!
Now in the rules it says to play on a "short lifespan" for an extra challenge and it was mostly so you don't get bored of playing one gen.
However I have tailored my game for me. I play on the Normal Lifespan in game and use MCCC* to set custom age ranges. *Now due to the update that happened in game today, MCCC isn't updated so if you have updated to the newest patch, you will not be able to do this until the mod is updated.
If you do not want to force MCCC on your game, you can also use birthday cakes to auto age up anyone you like even before their birthdays hit. Legit once I am bored of an age range, I just age the sim up to keep myself interested.
My custom lifespan, if you're curious:
Baby - 0 Days (Normal: 1) (I age up babies immediately. I do not have time for them) Infant - 5 Days (Normal: 5) (It's my favorite stage so I kept it the same as Normal Standards, but you could shorten this if you don't like infants) Toddler - 5 Days (Normal: 7) (They don't need all 7 if you take all 5 infant days to max them out) Child - 7 Days (Normal: 14) (14 is entirely too long. This is my least favorite stage so I breeze right through it) Teen - 12 days (Normal: 21) (Who decided 21 days with prom every weekend was a good idea? Absolutely not) YA - 28 Days Adult - 42 Days Elder - 130+ Days (These last three are unchanged from the Normal Lifespan)
I try to have my sims have children during their YA and not Adult years to make it more likely for grandparents to see them.
