hey, apologies if this doesnt make sense, its like 1 am and i just got done with dance lol
so, bascially, im doubting shifting. How can i know if its real? Anti-shifters call shifting schizophrenia (however you spell it) or some sort of lucid dreaming. i dont want to waste my time if something isnt real yk? and other people say its just imagination and that i’m stupid for believing that i can shift realities. how can i fully believe shifting, with the little amount of evidence there is?
im not an anti-shifter btw, just curious! also sorry if these questions dont make sense, im in middle school and my english sucks (even though its my first language, lmao)
have a good day! happy shifting <333
shifting antis are usually people who gave up shifting they never shifted or genuinely think it’s a dream and we’re making things up.
i have lucid dreamt for a bit now. while dreams feel real, once you realize you’re dreaming and go lucid, everything feels malleable. shifting doesn’t feel like that. there’s a lucid dreaming term called persistent dreams or persistent realms (something along these lines) that has been talked about for a long time that is basically describing shifting using the lucid dream method under a different name.
lucid dreaming was heavily criticized when i was a kid (and way before even that) because it seemed impossible that people could control their dreams. now there’s tons of research on it. we are a tiny speck in a vast universe that is constantly expanding. if shifting is a super realistic version of lucid dreaming? i’m okay with that! i still know the experiences that i’ll experience are real to me. doesn’t matter what other people think.
because there’s not much research it can be hard to believe. but then i remember shifters talking about their grandparents shifting and keeping it to themselves, not putting a name on it. i think about our younger selves who shifted because our imaginations were so powerful to us. i think of the relief people feel when they shift for the first time. i think of the community that’s been brought together that gains nothing from lying about this. most of all i think about how we discovered this thing for a reason.
best advice i can give is join communities that allow you to talk to other shifters. shiftblr, discord servers, etc. are places you can talk to people who are likeminded and lots of people have genuine stories. for me, i keep shifting as a private thing only for myself and don’t really talk about it with irl friends. i’m not saying you have to do that, but that’s the balance that’s worked for me. but everyone’s different! listen to peoples stories and experiences and it helps so much <3 i hope that helps a little bit? my dms are open so feel free to dm me if you need anything!

The God's Realm
Warning:cursing,extremely platonic,this is a tickle fic so leave if u dont like it.
Characters:DreamXD, georgeHD,Sapnap4k, dream,george,sapnap
summary:DreamXD has trusted his brother alongside with george and sapnap that he will allow them to see his realm secretly but then gets caught by his other friends sapnap4k and georgeHD and seems like there has been a chnage of events..
"DREAM!!! COME BACK!!"george shouted for his friend to stop running from him,followed by another shout "DREAM!! COME ON STOP RUNNING!!"sapnap insisted.
While they were running they saw dream bump into DreamXD,and ofcourse they apologized and saw there was a portal infront of XD.
"XD?,what kind of portal is that?"asked while by dream as the other two tilted their heads dream following not long after.
The portal was a shiny blue color it wasnt a nether or end portal so the trio were confused XD didnt know if they could trust them enough not to tell anyone about this.
After a little while XD answered their question "its a portal to the godly realm where some of the gods go for a break".
the three were wide-eyes and XD also saw alot of amazement in their eyes,he think they are gonna ask if they can go with him so he think just in case they ask him.
And to his suspicion they did ask him so XD still thought abit more,and after a while he said yes but they need to stay close to him at all cost.
the trio were happy and smiling like little children and XD also smilled a little behind the mask of his.
When the trio settled down XD spoke up "its time to go just stay behind me,ok?"the trio nodded and hopped into the portal after XD hopped in.
All four of them in the godly realm the trio were so amazed and XD let them stay still to admire abit and then decided to move on and show them his house.
they were amazed the tree's were so fresh and green some lighting as well the sky was clear and the ground also was so pure.
"come,ill show you guys the house i live in with dream when he was small like around 5 years old"XD spoke up while he said to break their staring of amazement.
They followed XD and dream doesnt even remember this place at all like no memories or anything.
"Dream,you were here before why dont u remember?"george asked looking to dream by his side while still following XD to their house.
"I dont really know george,maybe just because i was so young i dont remember anything"dream answered george's question.
dream soon asked "sapnap,why you so quite man?"sapnap flicked his head to dream and george soon turns to also look at sapnap.
Sapnap was about to answer but they heard running footsteps from behind XD also heard it and turned around then said "boys behind me right now"XD voice was sharp.
Following XD's command they got behind then the trio gave a suprised yelp which made XD flinch and then turned to them and saw then getting lifted by some floating helper hands(?).
XD immediently recognized who they belong to "HD,put the mortals down right now." he spoke a bit strict but still calm.
the trio were confused and stil recovering by the sudden grab of them before one of them speak the helper hands clampped their mouth but not reaching the nose so they could breath.
They saw a figure go closer to XD he was short and almost looked like george.
HD spoke up "you do know mortals arent allowed here and its for gods only."he flicked XD's masked it lifted a little but XD shifted the position of the mask.
Ok ok guys quick explanation XD and Dream can see behind the mask because they have small holes allowing them to see in minecraft world but irl dream's mask is pitch black when u wear it ok ok im done now continue.
"yes,yes i do know but i trust them enough to not tell any other mortal."XD spoke up to HD.
HD sighed but decided to let the mortals go as soon as he did they immediently rushed behind XD.
George was still proccessing '𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘦' george thought to himself.
Dream and sapnap thought the same on he almost look like george but he doesnt,"oh yeah!,GeorgeHD meet sapnap,dream and george and sapnap,dream,george meet GeorgeHD!"XD introduced.
HD gave a rather mean look at the three mortals XD did notice so he gave a little nudge on HD meaning to stop scaring them.
"uhm,uh hello George HD? Uhh c-can you tell me why do you l-look like me?"george spoke up amd thought '𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬 𝘪 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘥 𝘶𝘩𝘩'george thought
dream and sapnap exchanged looks dream decided to ask "XD explain why he looks like george"dream gave a serious look on XD but he didnt see it cuz of the mask but XD felt the look.
"He is my friend he is also a god but i wish i can give the answer why they look alike but i dont know that info sorry."XD answered dream.
"But i do have another friend that looks like sapnap his name is sapnap4k but i do not know where he is at this time" XD continued and admitted.
HD sighed at XD "4k is at his house right now if u want u can introduce the mortals to him then after that they can go back" HD said.
"Oh wait that reminds me i havent showed my house also i almost forgot i can do this!"XD said at soon as he said 'this' a 'pop' has been heard and faster than a blink of an eye they were infront of XD's house.
the house was made of some glow stone for lighting and the main house was made of stone bricks and for the windows are just some purple ones.
"and here we are my house!"XD joyfully said to the four.
HD already knows so hes not suprised at all,when he turns his glance on the three they were amazed on how well built it was.
"wow,i dont even remember living here"dream spoke,HD didnt also remember dream being here so it was very confusing.
XD left with a 'pop' and came back with another 'pop' but when he came back he had another person with him.
and this time it almost looked like sapnap,XD spoke and said "and this is my other friend named sapnap4k"XD introduced.
Sapnap4k was confused but when he saw the mortals he pointed an accusing finger at XD "XD,you do know mortals are not allowed here!"he scolded.
"Yes i know,but i trust them to not tell anyone about this place and also please do not shout"XD defended calmly.
"welp,4k met them so time for them to go back!"HD spoke.
"No i didnt say i agree for them to go back after 4K meets them."XD said.
'𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘴𝘯𝘵 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)'Dream thought .
"I- Wh- XD!the heck XD!".
"To be fair he didnt say that he agrees for us to come back when we meet sapnap4k ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"sapnap spoke pointing to HD.
"lets go inside maybe play some truth or dare!"XD insisted.
"ugh,fine but this is the only time im letting mortals here the next time im kicking their asses out of here."sapnap4k insisted.
"Seems,fair dont u agree XD?"HD continued.
"ok,fine i wont allow them next time"XD rolled eyes and looked at the three mortals and gave 'im sorry' look.
and the trio gave back an 'its alright' look at XD.
"And here we are im gonna go get us some snacks you guys can start without me for a bit."XD said and left the living room for the kitchen.
"Ok!,guys lets sit at the probably move this table to the corner so we could sit like a circle"dream insisted and moved the table at the corner.
all of them sat down like a circle dream was next to HD on the left side and sapnap was on the other side,4K was next to sapnap and george was next to 4k.
"ok guess ill start,GeorgeHD truth or dare?"dream spoke.
"ill pick truth,and just call me HD and call Sapnap4k just 4k for short."HD answered.
"All right,how does XD treat you?a-as a friend you know"dream said.
"He treats me fine,same with 4k if your gonna ask soon."HD spoke and now sitting criss cross position.
"uhm my turn i guess,uh mortal sapnap truth or dare?"HD asked turning his head to sapnap.
"no need to call us with 'mortal'just say our normal names and i pick dare".sapnap said with his face like: ( ˘ ³˘).
"Uhm ok also what with the face and your dare is tell me one of your friend's most embarassing secret."HD said now smirking.
Sapnap thought for a bit but when he turned his head to dream he got an idea "dream is insanely adorobly ticklish"sapnap admitted smirking at how he saw dreams ear become red.
"that ihis not true sapnap!"dream defended '𝘍𝘜𝘊𝘒 𝘍𝘜𝘊𝘒 𝘍𝘜𝘊𝘒 𝘍𝘜𝘊𝘒 𝘚𝘈𝘗𝘕𝘈𝘗 𝘞𝘏𝘠 𝘋𝘐𝘋 𝘠𝘖𝘜 𝘜𝘎𝘏𝘏-'.dream thought to himself.
"Mhm,if its not true was that a giggle i just heard"sapnap now standing up going closer to dream.
"SAPNAP YOU BETTER NOT GET CLOSE TO ME!"dream pointed an accusing finger at sapnap who was getting closer even if he is shuffling to the wall.
"ooooh~dreamlee is gonna get wrecked~"george teased smirking at how they were fighting to pin each other down.
Before dream could even defend sapnap pounced on him and sapnap quickly scribbling his sides earning a yelp from dream.
"Nohoho!sahapnahahap st-AHAHAP!" Dream was already giggling up a storm and his giggles turn into laughter as sapnap put his hands inside dreams not tucked in hoodie now tickling the exposed stomach.
"Well,guess the dare was also a truth"HD said smirking at the two.
"SAHAPNAHAHAP STOHOP PLEHEHEASE!"dream said with watery eyes (already)a blush reaching his ears and a smile thats long (btw sapnap removed his mask).
"Ok,ok fine cutie"sapnap stopped and backed off rubbing dream on the tummy to lessen the ghost tickles.
When sapnap moved to sit next to george now he tackled the two and looked both at them with playful but vengeful eyes (❍ᴥ❍ʋ).
"Hey!,what did i do?!"george spoke to dream.
"First of all you did not help me second of all you teased me so now your apart of my revenge!"dream said he was pinning them both down and now was using one of his hands and pinching sapnaps lower ribs then used his other one to scribble on georges sides.
Both of the men immediently giggled out a storm with dream teasing them it was worst.
"Hmm,whos the lee now george oh! And whos the cutie now sapnap?~"dream teased to both of them.
He decided to raise this up an octave and went for their hip bones both men almost screamed that would break the glass.
"DREHEHEAM IM SOHOHORRY STAHAHAP"sapnap managed to laugh out.
Dream let go of sapnap but not george "hey george you think you owe me an apology?~".
"OKAHAHAHAY OK IHIM SO-SOHOHORY TOHOHOO NOHOW STAHAHAP PLEHEHEASE!"george laughed out and dream got off and stopped.
"And there you go!" Sapnap was about to say something but got interrupted by a *ahem* from the kitchen.
everyone turned to look who it is it was XD was he watching them this whole time?.
They almost forgot that 4k and HD were also here and three of them blushed a light red color that reached the tips of their ears.
"Well that was quite a show,also why did u come up for that dare HD?"XD said walking back to the kitchen to get the snack that he prepared.
"uhh i dunno just came up to my mind thats all-"HD answered.
"hey dream,i have a secret about HD come ill whisper it to you"XD said while placing the snacks on the table at the corner.
HD tilted his head while dream head over to XD when XD was done whispering it to him he saw dream smirking and was growing suspicous on what XD had told him.
"Hey HD can u close your eyes for a bit?"dream asked while heading over to HD who still has a tilted head,he knelt down behind HD and waited for him to close his eyes.
"uhm,ok fine i guess"HD responded then closed his eyes still confused on what gonna happen.
everyone was staring at HD and dream XD was also smirking while staring dream raised his hands and made contanct with HD's ribs and HD immediently caught up on what XD had told his little brother.
"Wait-!" Before HD could even protest dream had start scribbling on his upper ribs down to his sides dream repeated this motion and HD was gonna lay on his stomach when he did dream got access to his back ribs and had start scribbling there left HD a giggly mess.
"Gahahaha! Ihis thihihis whahat you tohold hid ehehex dehe?!"HD managed to giggle out while attempting a death stare but failed with his wobbly smile and a pink flush on his face.
"Maybe i did,maybe i didnt" XD said while smirking and getting close to the two.
"dohohont evehen gehet clohose to mehe duhumb mahasked idihiot yohour brotheher is ahalso a duhumb idihiot lihihike y-HOHOHOU!".HD said that making the brothers do a dramatic gasp.
Dream didnt wanna do mercy anymore and he dug in the hollows of HD's under arms and XD went behind dream and squezing behind HD's thighs making him laugh with a few snorts.
"FUHUHUHUCK YOHOHOHOU BIHIHIHITCHEHES!"HD scolded in laughter and he wheeze for about 5 seconds which turned into silent laughter after.
"Now,now thats mean you want us to stop right?"XD said calmly like hes not tickling the fuck out of HD.
"maybe if he said an apology to us we will stop."dream continued and turned his head to XD who was now squeezing behind his knee caps.
"Hmm yeah what do you say HD? Or is it that you dont want to stop since you LoVe this so much?~"XD teased and switched to lightly scribbling his thighs and dream went on and gently scratching his sides.
"Ok ihim sohohoryy nohohow stohop plehease"HD giggled out in relief when the two got off him and still giggly from the left over tingles.
"You good HD?" XD said while rubbing the left over tingles and dream following him.
"no but i will be after this!"HD pounced on XD and XD knew this was his revenge.
XD tried to play dumb "HD what are you doing and why did you pounce on me?".
"Dont even try playing dumb XD you already know whats coming"he said with a wink and didnt wanna wait longer and pinching,scribbling you name it on XD stomach and sides.
he would also go pinch his ribs which made hum flinch everytime he did this randomly to keep him guessing.
"HeheHEY HD!Whahay ahare YOHohou gohohoing FOHor me ahand not DREheam?!" XD complained.
"as you know he already has been tickled and you told him to go for me so for now he is spared but not you."HD explained.
"Welp since you made me laugh hard time to make YOU laugh hard"he dug in to the pits on XD upper set and for the lower set well he is just sitting on them.
"NOHOHAHAHAHA NOHOT THEHEHEHERE HD STOHOHAH*snort*!"XD's laughter raised an octave and snorted which made HD stop for a bit and XD was in wide eyes and a deep blush realising he had just snort.
"Pfft- YOU SNOHORT?!" HD bursted out laughing and everyone else in the room except him.
"I think i can have mercy on you now" HD got off of XD and let him breathe.
"shush its not like im the only one who snorts when tickled hard"XD got up and turned his head to 4k who was sitting very quitetly.
"You know...there is someone in the room who hasnt been tickled yet"XD looked got up and started to walk towards 4k.
"HEY! HEY NO DONT GET CLOSE FUCKER!"4K cussed pointing an accusing finger at XD.
everyone else in the room got up and started walking towards XD with wiggling figers in the air.
"WAIT!- NOHOHO STOHAHAHAP I WAHASNT SUPPUHOHOHOSE TO BEHE NOHOTICED!"4K laughed out as 5 lers had tickled him.

Oh my goodness! Hello!
I wanted to pop in and say that I absolutely adore Intrinsic Warmth. I honestly requested an AO3 account so I can stay updated with whenever you post. I literally read Intrinsic Warmth for the better part of my Wednesday. Chapter 12 was so heartbreaking, I really hope Gojo and Hebi figure things out stat.
If you dont mind, I have a few questions regarding Gojo (i dont know if you’ll expand on later or just leaving it be - so absolutely no pressure to answer this).
Number one is in the 2007 oneshot Gojo thinks about one time before the big fight where he thought of Hebi in a romantic light - will we ever figure out what that moment was?
and then my second question is: did Gojo ever speak to Jin Hebi in chapter 10 when Hebi left to go have a bit of a panic attack in the other room. I’d be super curious in what their interaction would be like now Gojo is an adult.
No pressure at all with these questions! You’ve created such an amazing character and I love how Hebi interacts with everyone in the story, I can’t wait for chapter 13.
Hello!! Thank you so much :( That's so cool and crazy--and bingeing a fic that's nearing 150k words in one day is absolutely insane, and you're stronger than me. IW is reaching my usual cut-off point for fics, lmao, in terms of word count--and I just know it's so likely we'll be reaching 200k at some point, which just gets a bit long for me LOL. So you're braver than me!! Huzzah!
And questions! For sure! I love getting questions because I either 100% know the answer and get to be like, oooh! they noticed!, or it's something I literally hadn't even considered and now I'm like, ooh! I've got to think about this some more!
The first one is somewhere in the middle. I've got one irl friend who properly knows about IW, and she's my first port of call when I have random questions about characterisation or how things come across in my writing (she's awesome), and something she said ages ago was actually the inspiration for the 2007 oneshot, about Gojo having dreams about Hebi without really understanding what it meant. Anyway, she's mentioned that she's always thought 15yo Gojo would've had the tiniest little inkling of some feelings, which honestly was why I put that in there.
Also, honestly because I thought it was pretty funny to put a reference in there without any elaboration. Will they notice? What will they think? ha ha ha he he he.
I can't say at the moment whether I'll circle back to it! If it comes up in IW then I might talk about it as a nudge-nudge-wink-wink to the tumblr people over here, but I also can't see myself writing a oneshot about it just because I do think the ambiguity is really really funny. tldr, I'm not sure! Maybe. It's up to future me.
Your second question falls squarely in the realm of, oh shit, I didn't even think about that but now I absolutely have to. I too would be super curious about their dynamic! Damn. I hadn't thought about what Gojo was doing when Hebi was off, not with any specifics, but I absolutely do want to explore how an interaction between him and her dad would work now they're adults.
Okay, after thinking about it for a little more: when he was younger, Gojo would have never missed an opportunity to talk to the Hebi family, esp. Jin, my girl's father. Usually to taunt them, show off, pretty ostentatious and superior. It'd stem from his hatred of them from what they did to Hebi, but also from the more immature desire to prove his superiority over everyone.
I think when he'd get older and more mature, when Hebi was retreating from her family, he'd see speaking with her family as somewhat of a betrayal of her, a la 2005. If she's not talking to them, he shouldn't either, to show solidarity. Also, it'd be politically wise: excluding the family from the company of Satoru Gojo is an intentional slight, and one that would have been felt throughout all of the society. But I can't see politics being Gojo's main motivator; it'd have to be his loyalty to Hebi. His hatred of her family wouldn't have changed, probably just getting stronger to be fair, but there would be less of that childish need to assert himself as the 'best' over her family.
But I think, at some point, he would have spoken to them, and properly gone off on them. I can't think at the moment as to when, specifically, but I just have a feeling he would have, as an adult. Maybe when she wasn't speaking to him? Not sure. But this is something I want to circle back to. If you see it in future IW chapters, you know why!!!!

10 Anti LO Asks
1. The trial happening right now bothers me because we get to see how Thanatos and Echo reacted to this, but Demeter and Persphone don’t know and I know why they don’t know yet. However you think that would tie some more stuff up together
It was Minthe, Thanatos and Thetis who whistle blew on Persphone. Meaning Thanatos would probably be called to trial and would have to face persphone and I would hope say something to her BUT I kinda doubt that’s gonna happen.
But the other thing to this Minthe is a plant who can’t testify. Are hades and Persphone hide the fact she’s a plant and pretend she’s missing or are they gonna say “yeah I still don’t have control over my powers but I’m queen now” HOWEVER I truly believe RS is just gonna not address these two plot points until way later.
FINALLY Eros and Psyche KNOW the last person Daphne was seen with was Apollo, did they chase after her after he got shot by the arrow? We don’t know. We don’t even know what they’re doing about Psyche. Did Eros and Psyche even see the Daphne tree? Are they going to try and sneak in to tell Persphone?
I know the plots gonna focus more on HxP secret marriage at the court trial rather than the actual consequences and the fact people are turning into greenery left and right. (It’s not Persohones Faullt Daphne is the way she is but RS needs to focus on other plot points I feel)
2. like, age gaps, height differences, and power imbalances dont always have to be bad, the issue to me is that the way rachel does it is hyper-focusing on how young, small, and child-like/unexperienced persephone is compared to the old, giant, and all powerful/mature hades is like ... yeah obvs people are going to find it creepy? how would they not?
3. i honestly cant stand the "theyre immortal gods the age gap doesnt matter!!" agreement because like??? ok??? then she could easily be 300 years old then? she shouldnt be so borderline underage then?? like the immortality aspect actually makes the age gap worse, not better??
4. i realize getting nitpicky over unimportant characters in lo having american names is a bit dumb, but it does speak to just how lazy rachel is and how little care she has for greece and its mythology. there are countless english names that are also greek, yet even that's asking too much of her. percy jackson isnt a perfect series, but even the characters (who are in america) have greek influence and meanings put into their names and characterization, something rachel doesn't even attempt to do.
5. ok but thats a good point, because rachel seems to be taking physical wounds to matter more over the mental ones, when thats not how trauma works. her writing on zeus is reflective of her writing minthe, where she confirmed she has a severe untreated mental illness and that's linked to her evilness, and thus what she should be punished for. meanwhile persephone own mental issues can be bastardized as a "yass queen" thing?? somehow?? its just bad writing all around.
6. i kinda wish lo fans would listen to their own logic and give the same leeway to the other characters. theyll scream from the rooftops that hades and persephone and hera can be awful people all they want because thats ~realistic~, meanwhile minthe and zeus and everyone else are held to such extremes they can never meet and are hated and despised for nothing in compared to hxp or hera. either hold your faves accountable or let off on hating characters who do the same as them.
7. i see a lot of lo fans excuse how everything drags as "thats how a slow burn works" and its like ... no? because most of that slow burn isnt even hxp, its rachel forcing in more plots we dont need, and when its hxp, you look at the timeline and how they act and its actually neck-breakingly fast? like if as much time had past in LO as irl time then yeah, four years is a slow burn, but its only been maybe a month in comic? so its not slow for them at all, but it's a drag for the readers.
8. See, the difference between Lo!Hades and Punderworld!Hades is that PW!Hades has so much personality, he and Persephone are literally bustling with life (even though one of them rules over a realm of dead XD) AND their interactions are so cute with their awkward attempts at flirting and failure at doing so. Persephone is still somewhat sweet and “pure” but she’s also a bit of a spitfire, she’s not easy to surrender, she has wants and dreams and that little differences makes her character likable!
We NEVER get to see anything like that with LO!Hades and Persephone, we don’t see them have these sweet interactions, these heart-fluttering moments, because there’s no base or foundation for those sorts of moments! It’s always these very out-of-character unrealistic scenes expected from a married couple, but they just met! It doesn’t feel natural, it feels forced and rushed and so slow at the same time.
Although Punderworld makes Demeter overbearing, i love her characterization i really do, waAAAY more than LO!Demeter, because we actually understand her reasons for her overprotective behavior and we get to see her in a more sympathetic light/manner in the newer chapters, we see her as more than “mean mom hates bf”
9. Daphne and Thanatos were adorable. Like, Daphne was a sweet, caring girl with genuine interest (and power/agency) and Thanatos was a shy, awkward guy who was just doing his best (and not pressuring her). They weren't perfect, but it was something! Why couldn't LO be about them?
10. What I find funny is that Minthe and Thetis have a more defined friendship than Persphone and other female characters.
Minthe and Thetis ARE TOXIC don’t get me wrong but both characters are aware of each other’s motives. Minthe knows not to trust Thetis fully and is straight with her on her opinion of Thetis. But the readers clearly know their relationship as well as the characters.
Persphone is in gray areas with most her female friends. The beginning of the story we are lead to believe Artemis and P are besties with the dress sharing and the way in P’s mind they’re holding hands with Hermès. But clearly now their relationship is a question mark and they’re both more detached than we thought. Artemis was just being nice to P letting her stay with her because they’re both in the TOGeM but they’re probably more like acquaintes at best.
Daphne and P we know they’re friends but P isn’t straight with her. Like Daphne is P’s only named friend, but did P think of her as the other overbearing nymphs? We don’t know because they’re all pink and some of them are dead. Despite being told they grew up together we don’t even know much about their relationship what do they like about each other? Does Daphne agree with Demeters parenting or P’s need to leave? When did Daphne get to move to Olympus? I feel like the plot just says “these two characters are friends “ but doesn’t elaborate much. Why did P let Daphne in her room at Hades mansion and not the other nymphs? P told Daphne that Apollo is dangerous, but it was a little too late. Also why didn’t P have her phone number when she got to Olympus? Wouldn’t she know to contact her on insta or something? P was like “omg I know no one except Hermès “ but that’s not true! Daphne! I could go more but I think we get the picture that Daphne’s plot point is having the readers be told Persphone has friends but she doesn’t but she does.
Were shown that P and Meg are getting along because P was nice to Meg, despite Meg being silently jealous of P, but what about Meg now? Is she ever gonna tell P that she’s jealous of P that she had a mad crush on Hades, even her journal? Or is that all gone now? Does Meg even matter any more or is she now here just to support HXP?

Oooh boy. Why do I feel like I should go straight to the replies, or else I will start talking about having a crush again? No one cares, I’m annoying, I’m sorry. Yesterday around midnight, I actually caved and told my best friend because I just couldn’t keep my feelings to myself any longer, and I was pleasantly surprised by her reaction. I didn’t want to tell her at first because we kinda tend to turn this kind of stuff into jokes, but I guess she did figure out that this time, it’s serious serious - THERE WE GO I’M OVERSHARING AGAIN I AM AN IDIOT. Anyway did I mention I love her? I don’t deserve her. She’s the best, you guys don’t even know her but I just wanted to give her a little shoutout because damn, thanks for yesterday, I thought I would explode. Also, she has an important exam in a week, so if you could send positive vibes her way, that would be great.
By the time you’re seeing this replies, I think I’m playing with Realm of Magic. I’m so excited! Last time I bought a pack on release day was with Seasons. I’m not sure who I will play this with yet. Maybe with Lucian and his girlfriend. I really hope you can somehow turn an alien into a spellcaster, even if that means he’d no longer be an alien. I don’t mind that. Whoops, hold on, was that a spoiler? Yeah, uh, Lucian is a teenager in my game at the moment, he has a girlfriend and he’s not very alien-y and I don’t care about that. Honestly…when have my aliens ever been alien-y? Miracle was the only one and she hated that (and 2019 Ronnie hates that she hated that but 2017 Ronnie didn’t know any better, long story).
Witches are something I’ve wanted in this game for a long time, so they better be good or else I’ll cry. Next up…I know everyone wants university, and I think we’ll get it, but to be fair, I don’t care about it that much. I’ll be playing university irl so I guess that makes sense. 😂 I would really like something like a band game pack, where you can form a band and have concerts and write music and…just do musician stuff, I guess. I was hoping bands would be added in Get Famous but nah, it was pretty much just acting…which I still haven’t explored. 🤦‍♀️ But yeah, band game pack is like my dream. I’m guessing it could be retro themed too, and have many references to some iconic bands?? Imagine if it was like 70s-80s inspired. Imagine THE HAIR. Did I mention I will defend weird 80s hair until the day I die? Yeah. I would really love that. I’m not saying I think a pack like this will happen, but it would be an absolute dream if it did.
TL;DR: I have a crush, I’m playing Realm of Magic and I want a band themed game pack.

psa: you can use mccc to customize lifespan length!!! i dont like how fast normal goes but long is like. So Long. so i use mccc to make everything just a Lil Longer
I know you can do that, I don’t know how but it’s possible, yes! I’m not sure if I want to go for that though, I mean MCCC breaks with almost every update and knowing me, I would forget to fix my settings every single time. I think I’ll just use ea’s long lifespan and then age up people when I feel like aging them up.
desira-sims replied to your post “hey years ago you said you liked symphonic metal, do you still listen…”
Care to share some of your favorites? I’ve been in a music listening mood but feel in a rut.
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your post “hey years ago you said you liked symphonic metal, do you still listen…”
I also don’t listen to e. g. often nowadays and… Their latest album was not my cup of tea except for song or two. And my music preference is now “whatever pleases my ears” even if it will make anyone else’s ear bleed��
Yeah sure, I can share my faves from 2-3 years ago! I’m not saying “from the genre” because I know some of these aren’t that symphonic, at this point it’s all a blur to me, to be fair. Besides, I stopped caring about genres, so…yeah. Just pointing that out so no one comes for me like “how dare you say band xy is that genre”. 
Anyway, 2-3 years ago I really loved Nightwish, Within Temptation and Sonata Arctica, those were like my holy trinity, I would listen to them all the time, every single day. The latest WT album wasn’t really my cup of tea, I like their older stuff way more. SA released a new album last week, I kinda liked it but it wasn’t love at first listen. I’ll have to go back to form an opinion on it. Again, their older stuff is better in my opinion. Nightwish…I don’t know if it’s still going on, but people really liked comparing the three different singers they’ve had, and I don’t know why, I think they’re all amazing in their own way. I believe I’ve read on Instagram that new album is coming next year and I’m so excited for that. I don’t think there’s a Nightwish album I disliked.
I also really liked Delain and…Stratovarius, I think it was called? One summer I also listened to Epica a lot, but then all their songs started sounding the same to me. Sorry to any Epica fans that might be following me 😅 And I’m fairly sure I’m forgetting someone, but I believe there should be playlists on Spotify easy to find.

Unfortunately I didn’t manage to create a possible spouse(( but I hope there’ll be other possibilities!XD
And good luck!
There definitely will be! Lately, I kinda hate every sim I create, sooo…I’ll leave that for someone else :D
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your photoset “That morning, when Vanessa was leaving for work, I had a bad feeling….”

I’ve definitely had story ideas come to me in a dream. I got several ideas for my completed legacy that way, so good luck Roxanne!
When I’m writing something late at night and I get stuck, it actually helps me to turn off the computer and go think about the story in bed. And ta-da, I suddenly get ideas! Some of them get lost as soon as I fall asleep, but usually the right direction stays in my head and I’m ready to pick it up as soon as I sit down to write again.

Congratulations! I hope you’ll have fun there! ��
I’m still not over that last weekend. Everyone was so nice and kind and fun and I loved talking to these people so much, uni will be great with them ;-; 
The best surprise to me was that there was this person, and they would come to me a few times and ask if I wanted to hang out with them away from the drunk crowds?? (we’re Czech, of course 95% of people who went to that trip got drunk in the evening -_- :D) And that was just so nice? I’m not used to people wanting to hang out with me. Also, we had great time together, if they called now I would quit everything to hang out with them :D
I’m about to start crying again. To all you lonely people struggling out there, trust me, it gets better, you’re not always going to be lonely and miserable. I thought that would be my case, but nope, things are starting to look better. And they will eventually start looking better for you too, I just know it. Don’t give up <3

School and real life comes first, but I’ll be excited to see these simmies pop up when the time comes. ��
So am I! I’m not sure what to do right now. I want to play RoM, but when I come back to my NSB…do I finish Sunset’s generation requirements first, or do I just slowly start throwing these teens in? Kind of like I started working on Ross’s aspiration when it was technically still the Mint gen. Eh, I’ll figure it out.

have to get up at 5:30 for a next month. feel your pain..
That’s not great D: I think I’d have to do that too, if I wasn’t moving to a dorm in Prague later this month. Spending so much time on the train and having to wake up so early would kill me.
elisabettasims replied to your post “Ahh, of course. I kinda forgot that I would get tan in summer, today I…”
I feel this on a personal level.
I kinda never had to deal with this before because I’ve been using foundation only for a year or so. And I’m fairly sure I’m using a lighter one now, because I definitely didn’t feel like a vampire last September :D

I hate how this turned out D: I’ve noticed that sims in my game aren’t fond of the “enthuse about…” interactions. And then it ruins things like this.

She’s really doing great though! Maybe she didn’t make the best first impression, but she’s been working really hard ever since.

What’s the name of the song? I love everything connected to fireXD
It’s “We Didn’t Start The Fire” by Billy Joel! Warning: It’s super catchy.

I think I will overuse these pants now:D So thank you for introducing them in the first place:D And for shoutout!
I was glad to help! And… I remember those girls!
Thank youuu! I’m a “high waisted everything” kinda girl, so of course I had to recolour these so I could use them even more often. And I’m glad that I’m not the only one, I mean, the reblogs and likes on this post are insane.
And yay, glad you remember them! Juliet and Amber were easier to recognize, I guess, but the other two, Lily and Lavender…I haven’t posted them too much, ever. I forgot how pretty they were *-* I will definitely use them as my models for recolours and stuff.

I like your ideas for him though
Thank you so much! I’ve been seeing him on my dash a lot lately, so it’s kinda weird seeing like three different versions of him at once, especially when someone makes him do things my version of him would never do :D

I don’t approve of the second one. No tears! I’ll gladly take more of the 4th and get the feeling she’s a little tired of seeing it all the time. Fire is also bad, but I guess the conversation was to good to stop. And that last one. Oh that’s great.
dandylion240 replied to your photoset “There you go…some gen 3 moments with no context. Good luck figuring…”
Why is Ross crying? Nothing better have happened to Caleb
*evil laughter*
I love how you guys assume the worst. I mean, I’m not surprised. I tend to accidentally kill my sims a lot this year. Well, you’ll find out very soon what is actually going on in these!
Also, just a side note, that child in picture #4 is Lucian and he’s not a girl, but I will admit he looks like one (and I’m fairly sure he knows that too and is okay with that, I mean, if he didn’t want to look like that, he’d beg for a haircut), so no worries. Just throwing it out there.
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your post “Oh, try to do Salim Benali!”
Aw he looks adorable! It makes me love him even more,
elisabettasims replied to your post “Oh, try to do Salim Benali!”
Salim is hard because he’s already pretty good looking, etc. He’s the dad of one of my sims who I did a BC with and founded my legacy on her, LOL(Anissa Hoffmann, she has her mom’s last name). Though I guess REALLY Salim and her mother are the founders but, I didn’t start a legacy until after her BC.
I agree, he’s definitely one of the few miracle townies who don’t need fixing.
Also, thank you!
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your photoset “Ugh, I hate this already. Can I go back to being an adorable evil…”
You can be an adorable evil child instead!
Oh, she will be.

Why is Gwyneth so cute I can’t even describe it!
Her cute face is the only reason why I thought “well, I could try a BPR I guess…”
Seriously. I’ve never really cared about berries, I’ve always prefered vanilla sims and berries were just something I created in cas from time to time and then never touched again. I still prefer vanilla sims and kinda doubt I’ll ever start another berry save.

I HATE THAT STUPID HAIR AND HOW IT SHOWS UP ON EVERYONE WHEN THEY AGE UP. *coughcough* Sorry. Had a bad flashback seeing that.
I hate it so much too! But actually, wanna hear a deep dark secret? I once used it on a sim…unironically. Like I actually thought it was cute.
I was 11 though, so that makes it okay, I think. I hope.
