wicked words | chapter 2 | teaser
For @snowxstormworld Jonerys Summer Lovin 2k22 Day 4: Historical, I had planned to post chapter 2 of the fic but sadly life got in the way and it isn’t done yet. I also had a very bad day which ended in a scary moment where I thought I was going to die (no exaggeration here, this is the US, there’s crazy loose cannons everywhere) and almost forgot entirely but here’s a teaser. Sorry that was long winded but I’m still trying to distract my mind.
Dany went to a massive trunk against the foot of the bed, kneeling and unclasping the buckles. He shivered. They needed a fire. He shook off his sodden overcoat and draped it on a chair to dry, moving to kneel in front of the hearth. He tried not to think about Dany moving around behind him, about how they’d need to take off their wet clothes or they’d catch a cold.
He swallowed hard, his cold, numb fingers fumbling with the flint from his pocket. It was dry enough but took several tries until a spark caught on the kindling in the hearth. It went up in smoke and he swore. “This shit is too old.”
“I found some wood. Here.” He glanced over his shoulder. Dany was coming down from the loft, a couple logs in her arms. She sighed. “We should put it in the stove.”
“We need to get warm fast.”
“The stove will do that.”
“The hearth will.”
She dropped the wood at his feet with a loud clatter, throwing her arms in the air. “Fine! You do it then!” She began to jerk at her coat and the buttons on her blouse.
He froze. “What are you doing?”
“I’m taking off these wet garments. I’m freezing.”
“But…”
She stopped and smirked at him. “Relax Jon. The trunk there has blankets and some linens. Get the fire going.”
He felt stupid. He was on edge. He was acutely aware they were stuck in a tiny one room cottage with one bed, limited blankets, and were both soaking wet and in need of warmth. He swallowed hard, closing his eyes and willing his body to cooperate. He knelt at the fire again and fussed with dry straw, the wood, and the grate, until there was a crackling, roaring flame.
It warmed the small room quickly, but he was starting to shiver, his wet clothes kept on too long. He stood and tugged off his boots and pulled his shirt free of his trousers. He wasn’t thinking about decorum right now, he needed the sticking wet garment off. He draped it on the chair with his coat and hers,moving it towards the hearth to dry. It was still cold and he shivered again, figuring he’d wrap in a blanket. He’d have to figure what to do with his trousers once he had coverage.
Because the other option…well…he couldn’t think about it. He steeled himself and turned around. When he did, he caught Dany, who had an arm full of blankets from the trunk, watching him.
Well.
Well then indeed.
His lips twitched. He flashed a smile, gesturing to his bare chest. “See something you like?”
“No!”
Her cheeks might have been red from embarrassment, or the fire, or even the cold. Except her eyes were still focused on him and her pupils had dilated so wide he barely saw violet in them. He turned and walked towards her slowly, reaching to take a blanket from her. He intended to wrap it over his shoulders, wondering if she was thinking something else.
Neither one of them said anything; he heard her breath hitch, throat muscles cording in her slim neck. Her breasts rose and fell quickly against her bodice, the swells of them visible barely over top the loosened fabric. He dropped his gaze to her swollen red lips. She’d been biting them. She only did that when she was nervous.
“Dany,” he murmured. His fingers closed over the blankets.
She shook her head and dropped the blankets in her arms, unable to keep composed. His heart leaped up, strangling the breath from him. This was happening. “Shut up Jon,” she gasped, arms lunging up, grabbing the back of his head, fingers wrapping through damp tendrils of his hair, and pulled him against her.
For once, Jon abided her command, and shut up.

I though I wasn’t going to finish it, but here is it; Day 4: Historical, for @hwsrarepairweek2022! 
I can’t lie: the historical prompt is my favorite. I have so many options to choose, and I decided to highlight a tradition performed in Grange, Ireland, to mourn the souls of the Spanish Armada who died in Streedagh’s beach. 
It is split between the years 1588 and the 2018. 
Anything more to say. 
I hope you enjoy it!

1820s to 1840s Evening Wear - 2 suits
Tumblr media
Two little edits of that one beloved Vampires suit, with three things in common: Wide hips, a slightly higher collar, and the same swatches.
From the 1820s until the mid-1830s, the fashionable silhouette for men's clothing was wide hips, a slender waist and full shoulders. This look was generally achieved through padding, corseting, and most of all, tailoring.
In the latter half of the 1830s, this silhouette began to change. The shoulders became sloped, and a "pigeon-breasted" look became more fashionable. Hips were still just as wide and the waist just as narrow. The 1840s look was, of course, also usually achieved through unnatural means.
Basically: V1 is this 1820s to mid-1830s look, and V2 is the mid-1830s to 1840s look. V1 has puffy sleeves while V2 has sloped shoulders. V2 also has a slightly fuller chest.
Swatch 1-48: Tie and vest in white, suit in many different colors.
Swatch 49-60: Suit in black, tie in white, vest in various colors.
Swatch 61-65: Suit in black, tie in black, vest in a few different colors. These are intended to be mourning swatches.
Both are BGC!
Both have the same 65 swatches
All LODs (except LOD3 which refused to cooperate with me, so it's the LOD3 of the original vampires suit)

Early March 1924, London, England
Tumblr media
Summer was coming closer and that meant Byron would return to Henford until Autumn. It also meant he would be away from the city, away from the parties and social scene. However, it did not depress him as it had in the past. He was working on a translation with one of his former professors at Oxford, and spending it in his office and garden sounded appealing. 
The summer would also allow him to think on his future. His feelings for Eleora Balass extended far more than mere infatuation. He’d been divorced almost two years. Was he ready to remarry? Stella and Campbell had married the moment the divorce was finalized. Byron didn’t think he would come off as prudent.
Of course, he didn’t plan to navigate these feelings alone. He’d invited Montgomery, his closest confidant, and Samira, Eleora’s closest confidant, to lunch at the local park near the Scotsman’s house to discuss it as much. 
“Is this about Eleora?” Samira asked bluntly shortly after they ordered appetizers. 
“Yes.”
Montgomery’s eyes narrowed. “Did ya do somethin'?”
“No, I did not elope with her. I’ve learned my lesson. But…”
Tumblr media
Samira crossed her arms. “Byron, Are you thinking of proposing?”
“I think so.”
“Mr. Balass wouldn’t allow it, ya know.”
“I know he wouldn’t consent in my current state. He barely glanced at me when we met three weeks ago. But… if I were to change and prove how much I want to marry her… perhaps he would change his mind.”
“Are you saying you’re willin' to convert to Judaism?”
He nodded. “Yes, Samira. Actually, I’ve already met with their rabbi twice.”
Montgomery sighed. “You’re willin’ to give up yer faith for Eleora. Shite.”
“I was never a good Christian. Excluding funerals and weddings I’ve gone to, the last normal church service I attended was probably twelve years ago. I mean, I like bacon too much to give it up, but if it means having Mr. Balass’ approval, I’ll fucking do it. Now I’ll just be a bad Jew.”
“Does Eleora know this?”
He shook his head. “She knows I love her. I believe she feels the same. I know that we’ve only known each other since October, but I have this deep feeling that she is the woman I would like to spend the rest of my life with.”
Tumblr media
“Well, Byron, all I can say is if you think it will make you happy, go for it. I know it will make Eleora happy.”
“Aye, I canna disagree there.”
Byron smiled and nodded. “Thank you. Both of you.”
Samira waved her hand and turned her attention to Montgomery. “Now, to a more important discussion. A little birdie told me that you, him, and Eleora did something rather naughty for the duke’s birthday, and I’m very jealous.”
Montgomery blushed bright red as Byron and Samira laughed.

previous ➸ next | beginning
The afternoon sun of May decorated New York, and Dianora was now far along with child. Upon the unlikely meeting between one of Gianluca’s “friendly” colleagues from his engineering firm, the two sparked a conversation with the family that was split between either truly irritating or truly enjoyable.
Gianluca was often set in his ways, and Carlton J. Montgomery was quite the insidious match against him. Montgomery was chatty, and exciting, and arguably entertaining, and many deemed him as entirely charismatic, but Gianluca believed otherwise; Montgomery was the epitome of idiocy. His thick-skull and ignorance made him difficult to work with, a nightmare in conversation, and an individual that should be actively avoided by all well-meaning citizens, but of course that is all but Gianluca’s humble opinion.
On the other hand, Dianora and Montgomery’s wife, Alexandra, were the dearest of friends. Dianora was finding being pregnant to be not very enjoyable, as most women would find. Her feet often hurt, and she never felt quite the same as she did before. There was once a spring in her step, that was now deflated. But, at least Alexandra was able to offer some comfort to the poor girl, with her own experiences. And of course, Alexandra’s son, Gabriel, was able to offer a handful of innocent joy to Dianora’s day.

His hands seemingly held her in place as the buzzards circled and the desert called. Run, Josephine. Run. Run before it’s too late. But he lifted her face to his and nodded, pulling her toward the house and away from the desert.

The day of Winterfest starts very nice for for the family. Sable starts cooking a fish grand meal for the family, while Elijah and Daphne entertain her with their stories and questions.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The family agreed to do a small gift exchange. The twins exchange toys as gifts. Sable gifts Ishmael new boots while Ishmael gifts Sable a new winter dress.
Tumblr media
It's evening when the family starts eating the grand meal prepared by Sable. There's not enough sits for the entire family to sit together so in the end Sable stands to side eating her meal. She doesn't mind, just happy to see her family happy and well feed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's late when Elijah is finally able to give Daphne her gift. He gifts her a doll, he was able to make with Cela's help. Daphne isn't able to gift much but the hug she gives Elijah is worth a thousand simoleons. And with that Winterfest closes on high note.

For once I can actually say I don't think it has any real issues, at least nothing you can't see just from the previews in this post. Like all trains in this game, the train might be underground in some positions and hovering slightly above the ground in others.

"--and I thought maybe it wouldn't fit her properly around the waist, but she loved it, said it made her look fashionable-- I agreed, of course, and she promised she'd call on me for her youngest daughter's next two church dresses. They're sure to be-- uninspired, but it's more than I hoped--"
