next / previous / beginning

ELION: Not at all. I’m simply accustomed to powerful women. Indeed, hierarchal structure is one of the few things in this world I enjoy. I can respect authority spoken by someone who knows firmly what they want; A commander that isn’t afraid to give commands. EIRA: But you don’t respect mine. ELION: That’s hardly the case. I respect you a great deal. But I also enjoy you greatly in other ways, so I’m inclined not to listen. It’s quite the paradox. A part of me does feel quite poorly. I’m just being ripped apart on the inside by my own internal dilemma— EIRA: Can’t you take anything seriously?! ELION: Yes. Yes I can. And I do. I’d like to get to know you. EIRA: Why? ELION: You ask me to be serious, then I will give you a very serious answer. I once loved a woman like you. You remind me of her in the most achingly beautiful way. It’s painful. And I want to feel it more. EIRA: …So it is a kink. ELION: Only partially. EIRA: laughs Ridiculous. Did she love you back? ELION: For a while. EIRA: Shocking. Let me guess, you drove her away? ELION: Not at all. I lost her. EIRA: Oh. She… I’m… sorry. ELION: She didn’t die, if that’s what you think. At least, not in that way. No, I imagine she lives, still. But the woman she once was… Death is simple, you see. We grieve in the face of it. And grief has a name and a shape. It’s understood. There are far worse things than dying. To carry on when there’s nothing left of us… That is suffering of another sort, entirely.  EIRA: And I remind you of this? Shouldn’t you resent me? ELION: Not at all. I’m reminded of the fondest memories. You see, like you, she hailed from the mountain regions; One of the snow-touched elves of the north. I wondered if you might have had elvenblood yourself. That striking color of your hair… EIRA: I’m no elf. Just unlucky. ELION: Unlucky? EIRA: My parents were perfectly plain and human, in a village of other perfectly plain humans. I imagine that’s why they threw me out when I was barely strong enough to open my eyes. I’ve been putting people off since I was an infant. So forgive me if your advances don’t exactly stir my pot. ELION: Then, my apologies. I should not have expected you to respond the same. She was, I suppose, a particular case. EIRA: How did you… meet? ELION: Very accidentally. We met during one of my assignments long ago. She was no stranger to battle; A ranger, and better with a blade than I. They say poison is a maiden’s murder weapon, but she preferred a more direct approach, and I’d never been beaten so badly. EIRA: You were sent to kill her? ELION: No, I was sent to kill her client. And I did kill him, but she certainly didn’t make it easy for me. EIRA: Well, that’s a story if I’ve ever heard one. ELION: I have many. I expect you do, too. We could exchange them sometime. I can be quite civil when I need to. Dinner, drinks, I’ll even wear my hair up. EIRA: Tch. Do I look like the type to be wined and dined? ELION: I hoped not. EIRA: Then you weren’t wrong. But I’m no one’s replacement. ELION: I would never think to replace her. But then, seeing you, I considered maybe I ought to finally move on. EIRA: Find someone else. ELION: Ah, well. Suppose I should. I’m happy to accept when I’m defeated. But you must at least give me credit for trying. For what it’s worth, I was sincere. EIRA: … ELION: About what I said before… the trials… do be careful and look after yourself. EIRA: I— ELION: Yes, I know. You’re strong. And more formidable people than you have been ground to dust in those games. Even if you do survive… I hope that when you come out on the other side, you’ll still remember just how strong you were.

I don't know who needs this but I know that it goes against the boop fest;

you tamagotchi kitty pals will take and give a boop when you boop them and it counts the same as booping a irl tumblrite.

#nonsims #saviorhide #maybe you're nervous idk your business.

[streetlites]

This is starting to feel like

#nonsims #saviorhide #i feel like i have either done fucked up with one of you or we might be friends now lol

[streetlites]

I was told that I would be able to boop myself, but alas, I cannot.

Edit: nevermind, I'm showing my age. I am a black cat. 🐈‍⬛️

because @lazysunjade asked a 'where are they now', here is 5 facts about

WooJin (Eugene/Gene) Park

Gene talked a lot of shit about Emilia's career plans when they were dating, but he's the big scary that Emilia sends out when she needs someone to disappear. And he'll make it look like an accident.

Trained the little Volkov monsters darlings self-defense - his 'legal' (read: cover) business is running a business contracted out to train security teams worldwide.

Is still married to June but their relationship is rocky at times. June knows he is working with the Volkovs (her relationship with Yulian soured because of Emilia) and she highly disapproves... but she doesn't know what he does for them. Not really.

Never truly tried to quit doing hits. He's extremely good at it and it pays well.

Is actually over his feelings for Emilia. They're not particularly close but she pays better than everyone else.

Five facts about

Emilia Beatriz Alenko Castellanos de Volkov

Emilia has not become kinder with age. She's still a snake. If anything, she's worse.

Despite having a healthy relationship with Yulian, they don't always agree with Emilia trying to steer the children's lives.

Emilia's hobby is still getting into everyone's business. But now it's government contracted!

Which is why she gets away with a lot. Like. A lot. A lot. She's got dirt on just about everyone who could shut her down. Hurray for the surveillance state.

She puts a lot of money toward lobbying to keep Sol System's lines of communication private. She effectively keeps out outer information brokers. Which is kind of great if you don't want the entire universe to know your business. But she knows.

Thank you @capptrash for tagging me! ♥

Vera - Love as a Flaw

Cowering, your love hides in the dark. In shadows and under cover of night, your love runs from corner to corner, afraid to linger, afraid to be caught. Afraid, afraid, afraid of everything. When you fall in love, it is with alarm bells ringing. Your love is a mistake, a flaw in the code, a purchase you don’t remember making and desperately want to return. You didn’t ask for this. You didn’t want this. It’s a problem–– your problem ––and you would do anything to pass it off, burn it away, scoop it out of you with bare hands, or carved out with hooked knives before it can destroy you. Get it out, just get it out now. You don’t care who you hurt in the process, only that you can’t afford to be hurt first. Being loved by you is to be loved by a figment of the imagination. It is to be loved in halves, or not at all.

Abram - Love as a Performance

Your love is a masquerade, a dance, a work of art. You love with a veil across your face, unable to allow anyone to see the real you. Can that be considered love, you wonder? As a performer, you have all your lines prepared, and you know exactly what to say and when to say it. You’re charismatic and bold, seductive and hypnotic. Your love is a snake’s melody, the siren song of the sea. Your love is enchanting. Your love is melodic. Your love is afraid and fearful and longing. You ache to tear the veil off, you ache to cast poetry aside for the sake of something real and gritty. You’re terrified of the very thought. Being loved by you is to be loved by an artist; it is to be a muse. It reflects others beautifully, but never, ever yourself. Not really. Not truly.

Aleksei - Love as a Choice

You choose to love. Love does not come to you easily, but every day you wake up and choose it. It would be so easy, wouldn't it, to grow cold and callous and grim. But you rise to greet the world, making the conscious effort to find something, anything to love. When you fall for someone, you do not kid yourself of their flaws. Instead, you resolve to see them for who they are, mistakes and all and you love them all the same. Your love is work, and it does not come easy. Your love sweats and toils. It is calloused and sunburned; it bears scars and comes with stories. Your love is worn, but it is no less valuable for it. Being loved by you is like being loved by a gardener, a mother, a teacher. Your love may not always be the simplest, but it is worth the effort.

Happy birthday and thank yoooooou!

Welp, Valentines Day has passed but that doesn't mean the love should stop, right? Right? RIGHT!? Exactly! So here are 5 more simblrs that I'm showing the love to this week.

@purplesimmer455 ~ Completely new to me but it is definitely my kind of simblr! I plan on visiting this simblr a lot because I do enjoy legacies with a lot of writing...I'm biased lol but I love it so far!

@maffickingcowplants ~ Did I say I enjoy legacies with plenty of writing? I did huh? Well it applies here too! I always enjoy seeing how others play the game and what stories people imagine with their own sims like how I do mine. I think anyone that enjoys my simblr will enjoy this one as well!

@streetlites ~ Do you enjoy more mature stories? Well, you know I do, and so this is a no brainer! Also, a Simblr with a lot to binge on for the bingers since this is also a simblr vet! Since my stories can get very mature at times I know a few of my followers might also enjoy this!

@300yearschallenge ~ I'm always super impressed with any kind of historical simblr because I know how not flexible this game is since we can't create our own worlds and this one in particular I'm really happy to have found since the writing is good and the story so grounded.

@ownedbyaborzoi ~ A long time mutual and gameplay simblr! As I've mentioned before I always enjoy a good gameplay because like I said up there I just enjoy going through how others play the game and seeing what stories they imagine. It's what the sims IMO is about...that and deco/architecture. This is the type of simblr that reminds me I do enjoy playing the game myself!

The 2nd half of February is upon us and I hope to be back here again next week with 5 more simblrs to appreciate and shout out! I'll also be a year older...I have a bday sometime this week...any ways! I hope everyone enjoys the week!
