#ANYWAYS i then hyperfocused on that guy and was like ‘how weird’ bc he had some weird shit in his emails! (and also likes baseball lmfao)

𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟚

Time for a recap of the last twelve months! It's basically my tradition at this point. This year was a weird one. I'm not even gonna get into real life issues. It sure was something and I'm going into 2023 with no energy and zero expectations, lol. But with this mindset, I can only be pleasantly surprised, right? Or...the world will show me that when you think it can't get any worse, it will.

Anyway, simblr stuff! This is the year I started drifting away from tumblr. It makes me sad, but really, it just isn't the same as it was when I joined. The interaction is not what I wish to get so I'm simply moving to places where I feel like I'm actually heard and seen. Idk. I've tried a few times to "be the change I wanna see" but it's hard to change stuff around here. But oh well, to each their own. I'll probably stick around, even if I hang out more somewhere else and what you see are mostly queued posts. And, well, if twitter burns down, which I wouldn't be surprised if it did, you know I'll fully come back here. I love this hellsite. Genuinely. It makes me mad but I love it.

But I still love you guys. TS3 discord and a few other people who are not in that discord, I do seriously love you.

So, what was happening on this blog this year?

𝕛𝕒𝕟𝕦𝕒𝕣𝕪

I was still posting my previous BC! Well, I was finishing it. Vi became a parent and hadn't become a cheating jerk yet. 😅

𝕗𝕖𝕓𝕣𝕦𝕒𝕣𝕪

*this* is Vi's cheating jerk era. I still feel bad about how I resolved the whole thing, it was too rushed. I guess I was focusing more on the gameplay part and the NSB rules and less on whether their actions are logical? Prince shouldn't have come back to him, that's the hill I'll die on :D I know, I know, NSB rules and all, but he shouldn't have.

𝕞𝕒𝕣𝕔𝕙

We're slowly moving onto Bloom's very short generation, as well as gen 3 of my lepacy. It's Ginevra's time to shine, but first, we spent a lot of time with the winners of Axel and August's BC.

𝕒𝕡𝕣𝕚𝕝

Bambi and Candy are born, as well as the BC babies. Loads of baby cuteness in April on this blog. Oh and Ross flourishes in his babysitter era. Well, he's always been a babysitter to his descendants, but I feel like this is where he 100 % accepts it 😂

𝕞𝕒𝕪

Gins' era truly starts now (why do I keep saying era in this recap lmao). I had a lot of fun playing in Twinbrook again and Ginevra and Lori were so great. <3

𝕛𝕦𝕟𝕖

Alongside my lepacy (hi Elias & other gen 4 babies), I started posting the pink gen of NSB and also, my 100 Baby Challenge! I still can't believe I actually did that, and that I completed it in like two months only. Wow. What. I mean, yeah, I hyperfocused on it, but still. How did I do that.

𝕛𝕦𝕝𝕪

Again, gen 3 of lepacy and gen 7 of NSB, not much to say here. As for playing, I mostly just played the baby challenge. Oh! And Maeve's BC, of course.

Ohh, and July was the month when I decided to dive into the wonderful sims community on twitter. Probably one of my best decisions this year as I made many great friends there...🥰🥰

𝕒𝕦𝕘𝕦𝕤𝕥

Gen 3 ends and Sawyer is ready to take over Bridgeport but he has to wait for a bit. Pastel enters the blog and her bonding with Ross is seriously one of my most favourite things. I didn't think of this at first when I was playing, it only came to me later when I was posting the generation, but he definitely grew fond of her because she reminds him of Sunset so much ;-;

𝕤𝕖𝕡𝕥𝕖𝕞𝕓𝕖𝕣

Good news: Bambi and Atsuko get married. Bad news: Ross and Caleb break up. *sigh* There's so much to unpack with their breakup storyline. Yes it makes sense that they'd hit a few bumps on the road, yes it makes sense that some of them would be bad, but...deep down, the breakup only happened because of my insecurities and lowkey being afraid of using a townie in my stories. At least I kinda got over that this fall (thank you twitter moots).

More good news: I'm finally posting the BC!!

𝕠𝕔𝕥𝕠𝕓𝕖𝕣

I finished posting the 100BC and...yeah this was Maeve's month. October was also very vampiric, but I'll probably mention that in a separate recap (if I do a separate recap haha), as this one only focuses on my regular daily content (legacies and such)

𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕞𝕓𝕖𝕣

In November, we saw the funniest twist to ever happen in my BCs. Sorry River :D Aaand we also have the winner of Maeve's BC! I can't wait for you all to see them again in the legacy. Next year, hopefully.

𝕕𝕖𝕔𝕖𝕞𝕓𝕖𝕣

Sawyer's time to shine has come. Well, not really, his siblings are constantly stealing it. Don't be surprised if he one day, you know, steals their organs and sells them.

Oh, and it's also TS3!Ross's time to shine. Because of course it is. I knew I needed to use his TS3 self somewhere, and all things considered, this felt like a perfect time for that.

December was also the month I started posting videos on youtube. I'm sorry if I'm annoying about that, but I just enjoy it so much. Never thought I'd say that. So, if you haven't yet, feel free to check it out (and subscribe maybe? 🥺). I'm hoping to do some fun stuff next year.

What's in store for 2023? I'll probably talk about that later, but to put it simply, I think this blog will be stuck with NSB and lepacy.

Thanks for sticking around with my grumpy self. Here's to a better 2023.

Happy new year, everyone!

Social Media AU!

[give me an au and a pairing and I’ll write a ficlet of sorts]

Uhmm you didn’t give me a pairing but I’ll guess Viktuuri?? And if you meant Viktuuri for this AU, did you mean: canon?

Anyway, if we’re doing social media AU, Yuuri is that guy with the really eclectic but hyperfocused posts. He has about a million accounts because he gets anxiety about making his viewers watch content they didn’t originally sign up for. 

So he has his:  -stunt Youtube account where he wears a mask -dance Tiktok -Viktor Nikiforov fan account on Tumblr -Poodle appreciation Pinterest board -Insta for Vicchan. He wears little outfits that Hiroko and Yuuri make him. He does tricks. Vicchan is hugely famous in certain circles -Japanese language podcast directed at USA people. He had a bunch of classmates ask him if he would make this to help them learn Japanese. Yuuri told them he didn’t, but there was one he knew of, and gave them this. They all know it’s his, and will never tell. -ASMR youtube account

Anyway Viktor follows him on all of them except the fan account of himself, because he is weird but made a pact with Yakov many years ago to not follow fan accounts and thus has never stumbled upon it. Viktor does not know all of these are run by the same person. Viktor is a hugely successful Insta model and Youtuber who got his start by doing beauty vids but has moved into charity, comedy, and probably something like Van Ness’ educational blog. Viktor likes education!! Viktor likes personal finance!!!

Yuuri messes up in at least one image for each of his accounts-- he slips up and knocks the mask off a little in his stunt vid, but still decides to post bc who’d care, his mom films Vicchan begging for treats and Yuuri cooing on camera, his sister yells for him in the middle of his Japanese language podcast and again-- who’d care??

Viktor Nikiforov cares.

“It’s the same MAN,” he screeches at Christophe, who runs a lot of sexual education social media accounts. “He’s perfect, I think I’m in love with him?”

“Great, please listen to my latest podcast episode on first dates,” Christophe says.

(They make contact. Viktor doesn’t think Christophe gets to claim any credit for it.)

Everything goes beautifully, at least until Yuuri accidentally sends Viktor a link to one of his own Tumblr rants about Viktor Nikiforov from a few years back. 

“Ooooh,” says Viktor at the same time as Yuuri says “NooOOOOOOOOOOH!” It harmonizes very well. “Did you write this? This sounds like you. I’m very good at recognizing you on the internet by now, Yuuri, let me show you.” 

They get over the embarrassment pretty quickly and start up a joint Youtube channel, which does break the internet when the Reddit conspirators figure out all of Yuuri’s mildly famous accounts.

HOW MANY JOINT FOLLOWERS DO THEY HAVE is the title of one thread, and it’s somewhere in the millions. It doesn’t matter, because they both have the one follower they want.
