Your body could build my grave, with leather and lace. You take all my breath away, with that face. Cause she's drop dead gorgeous, I think she knows it. I think she knows it... But if she ever left, I would just drop dead.
I animated Ashoakmaple's art of Tori and Ezra from Annette Marie's The Guild Codex! Song: Drop Dead Gorgeous by Voilà, perfectly recommended by this podcast!

If you love:
monster of the week
found families
boys being dumbass lovable boys
the main character actually being relatable and not secretly superhuman stomping her way into the world of magic cause she's just that stubborn and broke
healthy relationships
books that feel like a really good fanfic, not from tropes, but cause the author doesn't think they're better or smarter than you
that sweet, sweet canadian content
I am BEGGING you to read The Guild Codex books.

Those green eyes fixed on me, boring through my skin. “You want me to leave?” “Of course not, but this isn’t your guild. You need to take care of yourself.” “And you won’t care if I leave?” “No. It won’t change anything between us, promise.” A muscle in his jaw ticked as he studied me, lines of tension around his mouth. After a long moment, he gave a short nod. “Understood.”
Bawling my eyes out right now!

Decades- 1894
Tumblr media Tumblr media
1894 came and went without much fuss. Little Theo aged up into a toddler, and Eloise gave birth to not one, but two, healthy little girls-(She could only hold one for the photo) Cordelia Annette Dawson (Dellie), and her sister Elaine Margaret Dawson (Ellie). (Theo is truly outnumbered!)
To Teresa's dismay, no one died during childbirth, hooray!
To no ones surprise, Teresa has refused to interact with the babies in any way. However, Lilliana has become very fond of having little sisters. She shows them her dolls, her dresses, her bows, and dresses them up in outfits from her porcelain doll. Theodore is wary of them, but occasionally tries to talk to them.
Theodore has become very talkative, but he cant quite say anyone's names right. Teresa is Teesa, Lilliana is Lana, Cordelia is Deela. Although, he does pronounce Elaine correctly every time.
and finally, Teresa and her friends are all about to turn 13! So stay tuned for teen Teresa, Elliot and Isabelle :)

🌸 Springhaven’s Year 1 Spring Summary 🌸
❗ New Overall Changes: ❗ Lifespans were messed with a bit! Since I don't have any lifespan-related mods, I decided to give adults 2 uses of elixir of life. The founding gen got 1 as adults and will get their 2nd dose as elders. Only those that were close to aging got their elixir doses prior to round 6. (This is why Joy's still an adult!) Starting with round 6, all adults will receive their elixir of life doses as soon as possible. This is just to make sure that people aren't passing too quickly - parents shouldn't be dying when their kids have barely become adults! I'll adjust as needed depending on how things goes with the 2 uses. I may switch to 1 adult, 1 elder use if 2 feels like too long for adults. As always, if anyone has any suggestions for how to manage this (mod-related or otherwise) let me know!

The results from the Ashford twins’ ship polls are in!
The most popular ship for Alfred on Tumblr and also on AO3, if you go by the number of fanfics, is Alexia. Respectively, the most popular Alexia ship on Tumblr and AO3 is Alfred.
First to the polls. For Alfred, the second and third place goes to HUNK and Sergei Vladimir. While for Alexia, the second and third place goes to Albert Wesker and Claire Redfield.
On AO3, the second place for Alfred goes to Sergei Vladimir and third place to Chris and Claire Redfield. For Alexia, the second place goes to Albert Wesker and Claire Redfield, and third place to Leon S. Kennedy.
Polls:
Tumblr media
Results in percent for Alfred (left) and Alexia (right).
Tumblr poll results in absolute numbers:
Alfred
Alexia Ashford: 17 votes Sergei Vladimir: 5 votes Chris Redfield: 4 votes Claire Redfield: 4 votes Albert Wesker: 3 votes Robert Dawson: 0 votes Donna Beneviento: 1 vote HUNK: 7 votes Nikolai Zinoviev: 3 votes Others (unspecified): 14 votes
Alexia
Alfred Ashford: 22 votes Albert Wesker: 18 votes Claire Redfield: 9 votes Chris Redfield: 2 votes Leon S. Kennedy: 0 votes Ada Wong: 4 votes Annette Birkin: 0 votes Steve Burnside: 1 vote Spectre/Vladimir Bodrovski: 2 votes Others (Ashley): 1 vote Others (no one): 1 vote Others (unspecified): 17 votes
AO3:
Alfred is tagged in 85 fics, Alexia in 101. For Alfred, 31 ship tags from 29 fics were used for the statistics. For Alexia, 33 ship tags from 31 fics were used for the statistics. Some fics had more than one ship tag. Every tag was counted individually. So the number of fics does not equal the number of ship tags. 31 and 33 are relatively small sample sizes.
Fanfics were excluded from the statistics if they contain:
No ship(s) for Alfred or Alexia
Only Alfred/OC or Alexia/OC ships
Only crossover ships
Only character/monster
Other criteria, like one-sided, non-con, (lack of) relevance of the ship to the story, etc., were disregarded.
Results in percent for Alfred on AO3:
Tumblr media
Results in percent for Alexia on AO3:
Tumblr media
AO3 results in absolute numbers:
Alfred
Alexia Ashford: 13 ship tags Sergei Vladimir: 7 ship tags Chris Redfield: 2 ship tags Claire Redfield: 2 ship tags Albert Wesker: 2 ship tags Robert Dawson: 2 ship tags Donna Beneviento: 1 ship tag HUNK: 1 ship tag Nikolai Zinoviev: 1 ship tag
Alexia
Alfred Ashford: 13 ship tags Albert Wesker: 5 ship tags Claire Redfield: 5 ship tags Chris Redfield: 1 ship tag Leon S. Kennedy: 4 ship tags Ada Wong: 2 ship tags Annette Birkin: 1 ship tag Steve Burnside: 1 ship tag Spectre/Vladimir Bodrovski: 1 ship tag
Notes:
For both characters, about ¼ of the participants have chosen “Others.” In Alfred’s case, no one specified what other ships they like. In Alexia’s case, two people commented. One vote went to Ashley, the other one to no one.
Due to the lack of information, I cannot tell you if a specific ship, which was not part of the poll, is popular among the participants for one or both characters or if “Others” are multiple ships of low popularity.
Excluding the unspecified “Others” votes (see below), the general trend of popularity of the ships on Tumblr and the number of fanfics on AO3 correlate well, with some exceptions.
 While there is only one Alfred/HUNK fic, the ship is the second most popular on Tumblr.
Robert Dawson (that’s Alfred’s secretary, btw) did not get a single vote, yet there are two Alfred/Robert Dawson fics.
Alfred/Sergei is popular on both platforms, but more so on AO3. 
Albert Wesker is, in both cases, the second most popular ship for Alexia. On Tumblr, he is a close second, but on AO3, he falls further behind and shares second place with Claire.
There are four Alexia/Leon fics, but no one voted for this ship on Tumblr.
Results in percent for Alfred from the Tumblr poll without unspecified “Others”:
Tumblr media
Results in percent for Alexia from the Tumblr poll without unspecified “Others”:

Thank you to all participants. Special thanks to the two people commenting on their "Others" vote.

Snuggling into the blanket, I popped another chocolate in my mouth, feeling spoiled as hell. I’d never admit it to Aaron, but I did have a favorite gift—and I didn’t plan to tell a soul which one I preferred.
It's the blanket, right??

More Cars OCs and Headcanon:
More Doc family headcanon for a fanfic I'm working on.
This time we're gonna focus on his parents.
I use the terms "sire" and "dam" to refer to a vehicle's bio-technological parents. In Doc's era, and before, it was almost always assumed that you meant sire and dam when using words like father/mother to describe another vehicle. In Lightning's era...not so much.
Also, in my HC, cars reach physical maturity at age eleven, after they have their final growth spurt. Only after this point in their lives are they able to reproduce, and it was very common for cars in Doc's day, especially lady cars, to get married and start families at that age. It is also the age where you can legally drink, live independent of your parents, own property, run for public office, and work full-time somewhere other than a family-owned business...though in modern times it's more common for young cars to stay with their parents until their late teens or early twenties.
*NOTE* I'll do a separate post on vehicle reproduction and growth at some point in the future.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Doc's dam, Annette Elizabeth Longhauler nee Glenrunner (factory designation: CS621949346CU07221925 Cycle 9, Rotation 195, Batch 46A), is the youngest of three children sired by Otis James Glenrunner and the late Elizabeth Marie Glenrunner nee Owen. She has two older, twin brothers: Carl Samson Glenrunner and James Owen Glenrunner, and was manufactured on July 22nd, 1925 at the Cadillac Factory in Detroit, Michigan. She is modeled a in the likeness of an Old World, 1949 Cadillac Series 62 Sedanette.
She started learning internal combustion from her father at five, and by eleven she was regarded by many as the second best mechanic in Dawson county, a rare feat for a female car growing up in the twenties and thirties of Cycle 9.
At eleven, she married the youngest child of the Longhauler Family, an International Harvester Semi named Samuel. Despite Sam being on the road most of the year, they started trying for kids...but, no matter how many times they were intimate, they were unable to sire a flame together.
Diagnostic scans revealed nothing out of the ordinary with her reproductive hardware...meaning that Sam's siring cable was the likely culprit. However, when she attempted to bring the issue up to Sam and his parents, her in-laws accused her and her father of trying to discredit the Longhauler name...and began spreading rumors around town that Annette was barren. The constant harassment from her in-laws and the townsfolk eventually got to be too much...and she would attempt to take her own life. But, the universe had other plans. A stranger bravely placed himself between her and a lethal curve, and the resulting collision would see them both badly injured.
Annette managed to push the stranger--an Oldsmobile that went by the nickname "Ghost"--to her family's garage in Dawsonville, and once her own repairs were far enough along, she took over Ghost's repairs so that her father could better focus on running the garage. She would ultimately befriend Ghost and confide in him, and...much to her father's dismay, they would sire a flame together. Annette received instructions to travel to the Hudson Motors Factory in Detroit, and the plasma "flame" that she carried was used to manufacture a child whom she named Samuel James Longhauler Jr. His true name--or at least the one that everyone called him--was "Hud" sort for "Hudson" as he was one of only two Hudson vehicles in Dawsonville.
Annette raised Hud as best she could while still working 60+ hours/week at the garage. It was clear, early on, that he wasn't interested in being a mechanic...and that was fine with her; he was his own person, after all. After Hud ran away in '47, her depression got worse and was exacerbated by having to run the family garage and store after her father and brothers were arrested for making moonshine. Sam quit hauling to help her, and their relationship would strengthen as a result. She was aware of Hud's racing career: He was in the newspaper almost constantly, and she made it a point to save every article she could find, displaying them proudly on her cork-board at work. She saw Hud's crash in '54, as the race had been televised, but his sponsor wouldn't divulge the name of the hospital he had been sent to...and she could only wait for updates in the papers. She hoped that he'd call her at some point, but he never did, and his disappearance after the fact would be the start of an emotional and physical downturn, made worse by Sam's untimely death in '58. Her health never recovered, and she would pass in '59, just two days shy of her 34th birthday.
Personality-wise, Annette was intelligent, hardworking, and stubborn. As time went on, she became more brusque, and bitter...but she did her best to tough it out if only to spare her father and brothers from having to worry about her.
Interesting Facts:
Her favorite genre of music was Jazz. Like her father, she was able to piece together that "Ghost" was actually Diesel O'Twill...and, technically, she was the only person to actually catch the uncatchable outlaw. She loved fixing and rebuilding engines, and she taught classes on basic engine repair at the local community center. Despite missing him terribly, she never blamed Hud for running away in '47...or for being distant during his racing career, knowing that he was more of a free spirit, like his Sire. For the longest time, she was afraid of telling Sam about her affair with Ghost...but when she mustered up the courage to come clean, she was surprised to discover that he'd already figured it out...and forgiven her.
Tumblr media
Doc's sire was the notorious, Kentucky whiskey-tripper Diesel "the Ghost" O'Twill (factory designation: OR881949C303CU09061922 Cycle 9, Rotation 111, Batch 2A). He was modeled in the likeness of an Old World, 1949 Oldsmobile 88 Rocket Coupe, and was manufactured on September 6th, 1922 at the Oldsmobile Factory in Detroit.
Born into a large family of moonshiners, he was forced to become a tripper at the tender age of seven (literally days after his engine finished growing). He left Kentucky when he was thirteen, mostly to get away from his shitty parents, but also to lay low from the ATF after he, his brother, and his cousin barely managed to avoid being shot to death during a sting operation just outside of Knoxville.
Not too long after rolling into Atlanta, he got wind of a guy named Smokey in Thomasville who was recruiting scouts and trippers to help expand the reach of moonshine mogul, and eventual AARC (American Automotive Racing Convention) founder Raymond Parkway. Ghost's speed, cunning, and off-road skills were unmatched, and he quickly became Smokey's go-to guy whenever Raymond needed product moved through high risk areas. He would eventually be placed in charge of a group of the best runners and scouts in the region, the aptly named "Still Chasers."
Years later, Ghost was sent on a solo mission to Dawsonville to look for something known only as the "Phantom Still," as Raymond wanted to recruit the owner to his network. He was unsuccessful. On the road back to Thomasville, he stopped a Cadillac (Annette) from committing suicide. They're both injured in the resulting collision, but Annette managed to push him to her family's garage in Dawsonville. While getting fixed up, they became friends, and eventually, Annette tells him about the problems that she was having with her husband and the almost constant, emotional abuse from her in-laws. Once his repairs were complete, Annette asked him if he would be willing to sire a child with her. He agrees...but only after he's 100% sure that Annette's rationale for doing so was more selfless than selfish.
Ghost would have no contact with the Glenrunners until 1947. While he and his crew were hiding from the ATF in the woods north of Dawsonville, a ten year year old Hudson Longhauler got embroiled in a sting operation meant for them. He gave Hud the option to go home, but the kid chose to follow him and his gang to Thomasville where they would run moonshine together until 1950. He and Hud mostly parted ways in 51' when the latter would begin racing for their mutual boss, Smokey. Ghost would continue running for Smokey until he was killed by the ATF in April of 54'.
Ghost was intelligent, cunning, charismatic...and a self-proclaimed "specialty ladies-man," being easily distracted by lovely, lady cars...but gentleman enough to not to see them as trophys to be won and discarded. He made a point to really get to know his potential partners, investing time and effort into individuals who really seemed to need help...and if they just happened to wind up in their garage at some point, great...but hooking up was always secondary to the emotional connection. He was very loyal to those he called friends, often helping them out in ways that they might not appreciate until years later.
Interesting Facts: He was a victim of child abuse. He may or may not have had to eat an entire tractor while hiding from the ATF in the Knobs, an area in Kentucky known for its unusual, karst topography. He was somehow able to convince an ATF agent that he was female so that he could sneak a trunk of moonshine through a roadblock. Had a brother and a cousin that he was close to, but otherwise hated the rest of his family. Would Change into a metallic silver paint job with expensive whitewall tires whenever he was in Thomasville for R&R. He became best friends with Hud...and never figured out that that the younger car was his son. Other than Hud, he sired one other child with his scout, Cassie, though they kept it a secret from the rest of the team.

Annette's husband, and the person that Doc thought was his father for most of his life, was Samuel Joseph Longhauler (factory designation: IHC1940KR11360CU11111925 Cycle 9, Rotation 134, Batch 3B). He was the youngest child sired to Spinney and Claire Longhauler. He was manufactured on November 11th, 1925, at the International Harvester Company Factory in Chicago, IL and is modeled after an Old World, 1941 KR-11 International Harvester Company Truck.
At the time he was manufactured, Sam was the largest truck born into the Longhauler family--larger, even, than his uncle Skids whom was an actual logging truck. After his seventh-year growth spurt, he was big and strong enough to haul full loads of corn and rye to Atlanta, and he was eventually coerced by his father to start hauling lumber. By ten he had managed to secure a lucrative contract with the US Railroad Commission, and was hauling lumber all over the southeast. At eleven, his parents arranged for him to marry Annette Glenrunner. Despite being lukewarm to the concepts of fatherhood and children, he and Annette knew that newly married vehicles were socially obligated to reproduce, so they would try every time he was in town. Two years and DOZENS of attempts later, they were still childless. Annette would eventually confront him with evidence suggesting that his siring cable may be at fault...and he would have believed her if not for his parents. They told him that Annette was barren, and he was too afraid of his father to argue. The next time he came home, Annette had a child with her... a child that she claimed was his. He had his doubts right from the start...but since his parents didn't question it, and Annette was happier than he'd ever seen her, he put the matter out of his mind and instead focused on trying to be a good father...despite the fact that he was on the road for much of Hud's childhood.
In '47, Hud got mixed up with a group of whiskey trippers. The ATF tore apart Dawsonville trying to find him...but they found Otis Glenrunner's still, instead. Otis, and his twin sons were arrested...leaving Annette to run Glenrunner's by herself. When Sam saw how much his wife was struggling, physically and emotionally, he quit his job to help her. His father was furious...but Sam stood up to him, earning Annette's respect in the process. This would eventually blossom forth into actual love, and despite all the hell that they were going through, their relationship prospered.
Personality wise, Sam was creative, timid and sensitive. He was much more at home in his uncle's study, studying and drawing maps, than hauling lumber. But the Longhaulers were a family of loggers and farmers, and hobbies like art were considered "idle work." His father would physically and verbally abuse him as a way of getting him to "truck up" any time his behavior "lapsed." By the time he was eight, he had developed such a pathological fear of his father that he took on work that he knew was too much for his body to handle, hoping to earn his father's respect...but it was never enough. Years of abuse, combined with the strain of forcing his body to haul loads that exceeded the recommended weight for his model, left him with deep emotional and physical scars that would make it difficult to form close bonds with people, and--unknown to him--sire children. Later in life, he would develop D.R.A.D, a degenerative disease effecting the bio-technology in his cab where it transitioned to the bio-mechanical and mechanical components of his rear axle. As time went on, the pain became so bad that he couldn't function without immense doses of medication, and he would choose to be humanely euthanized in June of '58 when his condition took a turn for the worse.
Interesting Facts:
He was the youngest of eleven children (he had eight brothers and two sisters...all of whom were various types of trucks). Out of everyone in his family, Sam was really only close to his uncle Skids, and when the latter died in a freak logging accident, he inherited his uncles entire estate...much to the chagrin of his father. He had a photographic memory, and knew the southern and eastern roads so well that he would be commissioned by the US government, off and on, to help plot routes for the Interstate Highway System.
