summer '93

#ts4 #simblr #ts4 edit #ts4 render #sims 4 #myedits #AUverse #kelly #dhestyn #something came over me when i made these man #i don't know #AUverse is the new tag for all of my miniAUs btw. so it encompasses multiple AUs #this one is what i'm currently calling the 90sAU (ideally it will have a real name eventually. it just. doesn't yet) #uh i have a confession which is that i haven't actually written anything for this particular AU yet #like. not even bullet points or anything #but i am completely obsessed with it #something about the boys traveling around in their lil van is just so fun to me #i love the idea of kel just being some punk ass kid who ran away from home #& dhes sees him on the side of the road one day & is like. oh. yea. that one's cute. sure. i'll pick him up. #& they literally just travel the states together #like originally dhes was only gonna drive him to this one concert in a nearby city but #since they had a few days to spare dhes convinced kel to let him take him on a small detour & go sight seeing #& they ended up having a lot of fun!!! #i haven't decided for sure yet but i think they're like... 19 or 20 in this AU #i'll figure out the details once i actually start writing it though

they’re everything to me

#ts4 #simblr #ts4 edit #ts4 render #sims 4 #myedits #dhestyn #kelly #i take back what i said a few weeks ago about kel dating out of his league #kel's the prettiest boy & dhes should be grateful to breathe the same air as him

#ts4 #simblr #ts4 edit #ts4 render #sims 4 #myedits #AUverse #bow #dhestyn #kelly #sue #gaston #good news i didn't forget how to make things #this still isn't the band edit i had planned to do but idk it's kind of fun i guess #i used the blender compositor for some of the effects :-) #looking at it now it kind of ended up being an unintentional remake of that one bandAU edit i did forever ago #i never did like that one #the lighting was. not good. #but anyway! look at me posting my other OCs for once! #stella & marky are not in the band but #stella sells merch for them at their shows & marcus very lovingly tells them how much their music sucks #btw they actually are a band in canon. they perform in their high school talent show & everything #they don't get big at all though & they kind of just... give up on it after a while #kel is the only one out of the 5 of em who actually knows anything about making music #so they were doomed from the start really #this AU is literally the exact same as canon but they get mildly famous #probably played at warped tour or something when that was still a thing lol

the boys, 80s-ified

#another day. another AU #finding decent 80s cc was significantly harder than i thought it would be btw #let it be known that dhes' hair is supposed to be much bigger than it is #i just couldn't find a hair that matched what i was envisioning #i might still change their outfits here & there but they're ok for now #i do have 5 other kids to dress so. #this AU was not my idea for the record. it is a collab AU #hi wren lol #definitely one of my favorite AUs that the boys have been in so far #love to put the boys in Situations #rainyrambles #dhestyn #kelly #idk why i used the boys' full names for their tags #literally every other one of my ocs' tags are their nicknames. why did i do that #ngl dhes' outfit just looks like something canon dhes would wear lol

the kids released a new album

#ts4 #simblr #ts4 edit #ts4 render #sims 4 #myedits #AUverse #dhestyn #kelly #ok i actually have things to say about this #FIRST OF ALL this is not what i intended to make when i sat down & started working on the bandAU #i had this big elaborate thing planned & then i realized... i didn't wanna do it. at least. not right now lol #idk why i think everything i make needs to be so elaborate & involved bc it doesn't?? like where did i get that idea from? #i can just make something small & silly sometimes yk #n e way. this is like. one of the kids' albums i guess? my thought is that dhes wrote it/was in charge of it #that's why he's on the cover. #kel writes most of their albums (w help from the others ofc) but dhes really wanted to try writing one & this is what came of it #most of the titles don't actually mean anything. they're just like. random words i thought dhes would use lol #but the first 3 are references to the canonverse #also i originally wanted to have dhes shirtless bc 1. symbolism of like vulnerability? #but also 2. i thought the lighting would look pretty against his skin #BUT he has a death note tattoo right there between his shoulder blades & i just.......... could not take him seriously like that so #he had to keep his clothes on

sleepy morning with the boys

#ts4 #simblr #ts4 edit #ts4 render #sims 4 #myedits #kelly #dhestyn #i apologize for the long post #this originally had 6 photos for a grid format but #i don't really like the other 3 so. yea. #full disclosure it is actually very rare for kelly to wake up at the same time as dhes #kel is literally a cat. he will sleep 16 hours a day if dhes lets him #& dhes gets out of bed at like 4:30/5 every morning #he'll cook a full breakfast & do a load of laundry & go for a jog before going to work #he also usually feeds duder bc if he doesn't she will yell & bother kelly until he wakes up #kel has to be woken up gently or he'll get cranky lol #he tends to wake up later in the morning & pick up lunch for everyone at the shop before walking to work #then the boys will drive home together at the end of their shifts #dani kind of just lets them come & go whenever they want. they mostly make their own hours #she doesn't care as long as they show up for work at some point

they won cutest couples costume at the halloween party

#ts4 #simblr #ts4 edit #ts4 render #sims 4 #myedits #dhestyn #kelly #(obviously) #that's kel's handwriting btw #also i'm like 100% convinced that dhes is actually just a puppy in a man suit like. #look at him & tell me he isn't literally a puppy #you can't #you can't !!! #n e way #bye

he's a fashionable man

#ts4 #simblr #ts4 edit #ts4 render #sims 4 #myedits #dhestyn #kelly #sarnai by simspurgatory #aka dhes' bestie lmao #i just want you all to know that if i had the skills to make shit #dhes would have the wildest wardrobe #the man has the most headache-inducing fashion sense honestly #like it requires some confidence to leave the house looking like he does #these outfits barely scratch the surface of his fashion sense & that's only bc i'm limited by what cc items i can find #& eventually i just could not be bothered to keep looking for stuff #i lost motivation for this edit at least a billion times over the course of the last month #the fact that i finished it at all is a miracle #idk if i even like it anymore honestly. tired of lookin at dhes' smug ass face. i could fight him #i WOULD fight him actually #find me & him in the denny's parking lot at 2 am duking it out #i would absolutely lose but i would at least feel better after he yeeted me into the side of the building #there would be a rai-sized dent in the bricks
