#just athena being the cutest cat she can be
Text
Stepping (mostly) away from the 14 Fandom has definitely allowed me to re-evaluate how I feel about characters and other things in the game and how much of it was just me trying to fit in or swayed by public opinion.
Like, I still love G'raha, but most people I was associated with didn't so much so I never really discussed him except as part of my Hadestown AU. I still prefer his Crystal Exarch and Crystal Tower versions over his Endwalker. Hope in Dawntrail he can chill out a little over the hero worship but I also know some people like that, but also my dude, we saved the universe together, you don't need to uwu me.
Still really enjoy Emet-Selch, Lahabrea and Elidibus in my own interpretations of them being sad old men. I like all three of them slowly losing their minds, or quickly in Lahabrea's case I guess, and Elidibus being a shell of what he was with few attachments and memories, driven only by the barest memory of Duty, Love and his other half's need to feed on Aether (Zodiark, personal HC of why he keeps demanding more and more sacrifices, it takes a lot of aether to power something so massive for so long and do the miracles such as fixing the aethereal balance and rejuvenating the planet). Emet losing himself over and over chasing half ghosts of Azem over Millenia does something to me, I HC he made the Hyth shade out of loneliness and imbued too much of himself in it, making it too much of Hythlodaeus but also too much Emet and it reminds him of it every time he sees it. Lahabrea likewise chased his family over the eons, seeing his son die and be reborn over and over on top of the personal horrors he must feel for actively working to destroy the Star just to remake it probably wrung what little stability he had left in his mind post rejoining of the Hephaistos half. Not to mention 12k years of Athena insidiously whispering in his ears from the Heart.
The Scions, I like them, Alisaie is still my favorite little sister for my WoL, and Alphinaud for all he's annoying at first, really endeared himself to me in later expacs. They are Family with a capital F to my WoL, to the point she would have murdered Forchenault for disowning them if she had had the opportunity. I have very strong feelings on disownment for seemingly petty seeming reasons, having had it happen to myself. It was very much a Immediate Hatred Of Character Moment. Sure he had A Reason but I still stand there and side eye him hard.
Thancred remains a favourite as well, I like the personal growth he goes through, how he changes from the rakish bard with a silver tongue to a sad and broken man to sad broken dad to someone who at the end of the world gave everything he could to save his family from total destruction. I also appreciate his morbid jokes as someone who likewise feels just broken sometimes, who doesn't want to sometimes burn the world down makes me cackle so much.
Y'shtola I also rather still like, especially when she's allowed to be a bit, and pardon the pun, catty. She grew up with Matoya, cattiness was her bread and butter. Let a queen live her dream of world hopping and sassy retorts. The magical girl routine and the end of patch 6.5 where she's like There is no other version of this spell, right WoL? Makes me so happy.
Urianger I have mixed feelings on, mostly because I just don't understand him as a character. I know he's supposed to be all Mysterious and stuff but I really just standing man when he's expositioning. It's probably a thing to do with his Shakespearean way of speaking when no one else does (I guess Hydaelyn kinda does). He's fine.
Krile, I really like her in general. She's a side character that made it to main character status and I'm so proud of her. She makes me happy with how she is somehow the cutest cat ear wearing girl but also the terrifying creature that haunts Estinien's dreams. I look forward to seeing her shine more in Dawntrail.
More Thoughts (tm) Later.

My Buddie Sims - 16/? (Master Post)
These days, Eddie is always super tan. He still had his tan from their beach vacation and then got some more in the spring sun (and spring in LA can be pretty warm and sunny already).
Tumblr media
So they're all having a great time in their beautiful garden. Christopher absolutely adores his little kitten Polly, and she him.
Tumblr media
And look how tiny she is next to Buck's long (and also nicely tanned) legs!
Tumblr media
But every kitten eventually grows into an adult cat. She still sleeps on the kitty bed next to Christopher's, every night, though.
Tumblr media
The two of them are simply inseparable.
Tumblr media
Even if Polly can be quite the little shit sometimes. Both Buck and Eddie have told her countless times not to jump onto the counters, but she still keeps doing it. Look at that smug little face!
Tumblr media
More after the cut (and Chris turning into a teen)
As spring moves into early summer, Christopher's birthday is coming up. He'll have a proper party with all his school friends (which happened 'off-screen; I didn't put much time into creating other children for the game, so we'll just have to imagine that), but that afternoon, his bisabuela, great-aunt Pepa, Bobby and Athena, as well as aunt Maddie and uncle Chimney are coming over to enjoy a barbecue and some early summer fun activities.
Tumblr media
Like water balloon fights, which is always fun!
Tumblr media
And this is the last look at Chris as a kid. (Ngl, I was looking forward to him being a teen - or preteen, rather, since I have a mod for that which makes your preteens shorter than adults and overall look and act younger than they would in the game - but Christopher was really the cutest boy I ever created in the Sims game, and I already miss him being a child. 😭 )
Tumblr media
But here he is, now a teen, getting a hug from his step-dad.
Tumblr media
And having cake that Buck baked for him.
Tumblr media
Moving on to a few days later, Buck visiting his sister's house and greeting his little niece (which *cough* I had kind of forgotten to create in the game until that point).
Tumblr media
He spins her around and plays with her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And she tells him a really thrilling story about her bunny toy that was lost but then dad found it again! (or something)
Tumblr media
As for the Buckley-Diaz family, nothing has changed. Eddie still greets Buck with a kiss when he comes home, and they're both just ridiculously in love.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Eddie also got a lot better at cooking, thoroughly enjoying it whenever he gets to prepare a meal for his husband and his son.
Tumblr media
(And this gaze in particular reminded me of my own fanfic where Eddie prepares *that* dinner for Buck and Taylor, and cracky unhinged shit happens in my fic. 😁 None of those things happened here, however. Although, in this verse, it would have at least made sense for him to have the ‘special ingredient’ around... Go read the fic if you want to know what I’m talking about.)
Tumblr media
The Buckley-Diaz boys wouldn't be the Buckley-Diaz boys if they didn't still play video games together.
Tumblr media
Which they do, frequently. (I utterly adore their face journeys through those games and could have posted at least 10 screenshots of this scene alone.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Christopher, now being a teen, made a few changes to his room, too. All the childlike drawings he made have been neatly packed away by his dads, and instead he has some very cool shark art on his wall above his desk (with a brand new computer). And he's got shark bed covers as well. Ever since that beach trip where he met Emma he's been really, really into sharks.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And that concludes our family fun for this post. Next we have more garden fun and date nights.

Are we talking about cats or a baby?
One-Shot
Trigger Warning: None
Disclaimer: Characters belongs to Sarah J. Maas.
Summary: When Helion appears with two kittens in their house, Rhysand doesn't receive it very well.
Notes: It was inspired on my dad's relationship with our cat kkkkkkkk. Enjoy the reading!!
“You did what?!” Rhysand exclaimed in the middle of the living room.
The sun was almost hiding itself behind the trees, some of its rays still could pass through the leaves and hit right in the big windows of the room where Rhysand was trying to not scream. Inside, the ambient was so comfy and cozy that whoever had picked the furniture made it with an excellent taste.
“But, baby, they were alone and sad. Tell me, how could I let them alone in this freezing cold?” Helion rebated, holding two little forms in his big arms.
“What cold, Helion, we’re in spring!” Rhys looked flatly to his boyfriend, who was visibly trying to not laugh. Helion knew how Rhys would react to this, although he also knew how he would like them.
Them was; two beautiful and cute kittens that Helion somehow found when he was picking some plants to his experiment. The littler one had a black fur and deep-blue eyes. When Helion putted his eyes on the little creature he could not to let to remember about his lover. The other, Helion thought to be a male, had a white fur, but with some black spots here and there. Helion thought them to be the cutest thing in the world. Of course, right after his boyfriend sleeping opened-mouth.
“I know we are in spring, my moonlight, but they’re babies and babies need home and some parental figure, if not they’ll be cold!” Helion said before heading to the couch where he left the two little cats with a blanket around them. “You’re an example of that with that father of yours— Oh, look! Look how cute they are!! I think I’ll name the black one as Rhysie.”
“Wait— What? You can’t. You won’t —Helion?!” But Rhys stopped arguing, because his lover was going to the kitchen to pick the bottle of milk that was inside the icebox —a magical device to conserve food. Rhysand was feeling exasperated “Helion, listen to me, god damned!”
Abruptly, Helion turned back to Rhys, who almost collided with him. Helion hold Rhys shoulders and gave him a too-well-known look and a light smile in his face. “Why can’t we have cats, Rhysie?”
“It’s not that we can’t. It’s that you brought two cats here without my opinion!” Rhys contested holding Helion’s shoulders too. They were like that, holding each other’s shoulder, Helion smirking to Rhys and Rhys with furrowed brows to Helion.
“So, it’s ok to have two cute little kitties here!” Helion kissed the tip of Rhysand’s nose before putting milk in a baby bottle that Rhys had no idea where it was from. He got so astonished that, for a second, he forgot what was going on. Helion could be a little… chaotic sometimes.
“Wait!” Rhysand screamed before following his lover. “I didn’t say that—”
“I can’t believe I’m living with someone who doesn’t like animals.” Helion rolled his eyes with exaggerated gestures and sat beside where the cats were cutely snuggled. It made Helion’s heart to warm up a little.
“Of course, I like animals, I’m with you, don’t I?” The joke was awful, Rhysand knew that, but the desire to annoy his lover was bigger. He didn’t mind that Helion hadn’t wanted his opinion anymore.
“Oh, fuck you!” Helion said looking to the cats to ignore Rhys’s face “At least it is better to be an animal with a warm and big heart than a soulless with a questionable character like you!”
“Soulless with a questionable character?” Rhysand laughed. “Love, I thought we had got through that.”
“Well, maybe now you’re showing your true face saying that you don’t want two helpless babies here!” He pointed to the kitties who were now fighting for the baby bottle. He wished he could had found the mother of them, but he searched, searched, searched and didn’t find her. It was the ultimatum to bring those little home.
“I didn’t say that either—” Rhys tried to contest.
“And seriously how can someone like you to be my beloved. I must have a very big heart indeed!”
“Your beloved?” Rhys said slyly behind the couch and putted his arms around Helion’s shoulders.
“Unfortunately!”
“You love me” Rhys whispered, his arms going to Helion’s chest while he let some kisses in his neck. “And I love you” with that, Helion couldn’t handle. Even if it was annoying, he loved when Rhys uses to ignore his drama and distract him with kisses and lovely words.
“Not in front of the kids, Rhys” Helion seriously sighed, but Rhys knew the joke that it was and let loose a light laugh before turning Helion’s face to kiss him, deeply and lovely.
***
It is not like Rhysand doesn’t like animals. He likes it, but far away from him. He has already a lot of things which were more important than to take care of nasty creatures that would only waste his free time. And now, apparently, Helion’s free time too, as it wasn’t enough to reconcile being two heir of different courts.
“Oh, Rhysand, seriously?!” Mor exclaimed, putting her hands in her hips. The tray of tea that she brought was already on the table between him and his brother Cassian. “You’re a soulless with a questionable character, indeed. It’s just a cat and they’re very cute!”
“Mor is right” Cassian said, putting an arm around Mor who have just sat. “They’re kind of cute and it’s not like you’re going to take all the responsibility, Helion will be there to help you”
“Kind of cute? Nah, I remember those cats who used to steal my food, enter in the cabin, sleep on my clothes, which by the way were full of fur. I doubt that they are going to be cute.” Rhys argued. He still remembers the hard time that it was to take off all the little white furs from his black clothes.
“Ok, but are we talking about cats or a baby?” Azriel quietly asked from Rhys’ side. The shadowsinger as always was with his usual semblance, although Rhys could feel the humor leaning on him.
“Don’t compare a baby with a cat!”
“Az is right, you’re taking this too seriously, Rhys. Relax, see how it’s going to work and don’t let the trauma make a bad memory of those lovely animals!” Mor teased with a fake serious expression, getting a laugh from Cass and Azriel.
“Oh, because it wasn’t you how had to take all the pile of fur to look presentable. My clothes were awful in that time”
“Well, that’s why I had a dog, a fox, that couple of mice and an owl... you remember Athena, don’t you?” Mor said, her mind far away.
“I do, she was amazing. May she rest in peace.” Cassian said and made a religious gesture. He and Morrigan used to send letters through Athena to each other, usually silly and dirty letters.
“By the way” Mor kept “When we will meet your babies?”
“Never” Rhys answerd.
But when he got home and saw his lover sleeping faintly in the bed with the two kitties curled on him, Rhys couldn’t think a bad thing about those cute little things, even more because Helion was glowing slightly. The glow that Rhys knew very well that was from a genuine happiness.
Rhys tiptoed to the bed and lied beside Helion’s side and hugged him, trying to not wake up him and the cats. But before Rhys could let a soft kiss on Helion and close his eyes, he silently whispered “I love you”.
Rhysand didn’t see the smile that formed in Helion’s face.

nobody gets away with being my mutual and reblogging ask games. do the prime numbers
Hey emily I only gave you nine. I will remember this moment, Emily.
2. do you like the feeling of cold air on your cheeks on a wintery day? Mixed feelings. It's a nice wake up, but it's nostalgic in some kinda unpleasant ways.
3. what random objects do you use to bookmark your books? String, museli bar wrapper, receipts.
5. are you self-conscious of your smile? I have a great smile, provided you don't mind that I don't show teeth. I like my smile a lot, so I am not worried about how it looks
7. do you name your plants?
I don't keep plants. Brown thumbs.
11. do you sleep on your back, side, or stomach? Side, hugging things, usually pillow, sometimes cute girl.
13. what’s something that made you smile today? A dude in a game asked me if I was "real girl yes no?" and when I said "yesno" replied "umm explan". I grinned a lot at that.
17. what’s something that made you smile today? Purple, and mission accomplished.
19. do you keep a journal? what do you write/draw/ in it? I'm too forgetful to keep a journal. I just scribble ideas sometimes.
23. what’s your favorite thing to do on lazy days where you have 0 obligations? Brunch.
29. what’s something really cute that one of your friends does and is totally endearing? Delta is deliberately contrarian in a very funny way, it used to annoy me but now I think it's cute. Koy is stubborn as a rock, and has a very funny definition as to what "taking it easy" or "a small project" mean. Olive is incapable of going easy in fighting games, and digs so deep into knowledge about things it's amazing to talk with her. I could keep going but I'd be gushing all day.
31. Socks: the question. Yeah I just don't like em, the way the seams get twisted and uncomfy. SIgn me up as a sock hater.
37. do you like keeping your room messy or clean? Clean, but due to chronic fatigue the option is out of my hands sometimes.
41. what’s the last book you remember really, really loving? The Last Girl Scout, by Natalie Ironsides. Fucking read it, it's incredible. Trans women in love dealing with trauma and shooting fascists, it's a treat.
43. who was the last person you gazed at the stars with? Technically my cat?
47. what food do you think should be banned from the universe? Anything coated in edible gold. Unnecessary and gaudy.
53. have you ever watched the rocky horror picture show? heathers? beetlejuice? pulp fiction? what do you think of them? I live in the hometown of the writer of RHPS, shame he's a fucking terf. Heathers is fine, Beetlejuice I haven't seen in a decade but remember liking. Pulp Fiction is typical tarantino "a bit much" but still pretty damn good.
59. what’s your favorite myth? Girly you can't make me pick! I kinda love Arachne for showing Athena to be every bit the petty god as her siblings. Sekhmet having to be sedated with beer-spiked blood cause she was destroying all of egypt is amazing. Maui slowing the sun so people have more daylight was one I loved as a kid. I think maybe I have to give it to Ragnarok on the whole, the imagery presented is so strong, so mythic feeling. It's a hel of a way to end the world.
61. what’s the stupidest gift you’ve ever given? the stupidest one you’ve ever received? Given, garden gnome. Received, a broken air rifle that was never repaired.
67. how do gloomy days where the sky is dark and the world is misty make you feel? Mentally I love them, physically storms hurt my bones these days, which is a shame.
71. what’s your favorite kind of tea? Whatever kind is fartherest away from me.
73. what are some of your worst habits? Nail biting, under medicating for pain because "I can take it", forgetting shit (tbf, that's the fatigue, but still annoying)
79. what’s one of the cutest things someone has ever done for you? An ex made me a stuffed zigzagoon once as a gift. A friend stayed with me to help with housework for a while. Partners stay up way too late to talk with me. All cute as hell.
83. what’s some of your favorite album art? This is actually a topic I have no opinion on, at all.
89. are you close to your parents? That is a loaded question and a half! Mum yes, we're good. My father is dead to me, but unfortunately still alive.
97. myer briggs type, zodiac sign, and hogwarts house? Myer briggs is a scam, harry potter is crap peddled by transphobes, and I'm a cancer. Never thought that's the one I'd have the least problems with, but here we are.
THERE. I'm DONE. IT'S OVER. EVEYRONE GO HOME NOW.

☁️Dreams☁️☁️2/7/18- just before midnight
For the first time in awhile, it took me more than a few tries to register a shot, mainly because it was cold and veins pop up better in the heat, but finally found a vein on my stomach that I was able to hit, no problem. I am laying down in my all pink bedroom, lazily flipping through Netflix for something that I won’t mind dozing off to and writing this. I love the dreams I have at night after using heroin. They almost always take place in a city at night with a time machine involved and I almost always end up in either the 70s or 80s in either my hometown of Los Angeles, New York and sometimes London. My dreams are wild whether I take drugs or not, but it’s weird, when I’m not in drugs, my dreams almost always consist of me doing drugs (mainly taking Xanax and/or trying to find a place to inject and not being able to). The few times I have been able to use heroin in my dreams before waking up it always follows with really random adventures. But either way, I’m looking forward to whatever I will end up dreaming up tonight. It’s almost as if lately I have more fun in my dreams than I do in real life. In the meanwhile, I have four cats. Which I know I have posted some pictures of before, but usually if my 2 black cats. I have one grey cat, Athena, who never comes to my room at all for some reason. She is hands down the prettiest cat we have, out of all four. Just gorgeous. Almost all grey with white underneath her. She also has the cutest pink paws. It drives me crazy how cute she is, but for some reason, and I’m actually really surprised right now, as I was writing this, she comes in, jumps on my night stand, onto my bed and lays down by my feet. I am so shocked actually. This is literally the first time she has EVER done this. I want to take a picture to make sure this isn’t some dream! Haha. And she’s purring. I’m trying my hardest not to move because I’m worried I’ll scare her away and I don’t want to ruin this perfect moment. I’m so happy right now. This made the night go so much better than expected. It is so crazy what animals, especially cats in particular, what they can sense. Idk what she is sensing but the fact that she came to me tonight is so weird. Anyway, I’m going to take a picture. Hope everyone is having a goodnight!
