hiii

ok listen

getting CC for white men in general is already difficult because men can't have basic style ig

I FUCKING SCOURED THE INTERNET FOR SOMETHING BETTER FOR FREDERICK

AND I FOUND NOTHING

so, i made it white and it looks okayish kind of maybe if you squint

you know what's really sad

the fact that the shades of gold from the embroidery and shoes don't match

anyway, have a white ao dai as well since Linh is apparently a goddess who can rock anything

dude it's the way it was easier to find a natural hairline CC than it was to find a decent formal outfit for men in general

does it match? no. do i care, also no because i know the creator of the mod worked very hard on this and i can't even make a house in sims, so i can't judge shit.

anyway, grover is desi in canon so does that make everyone in this fic desi

yeah, duh. except he's mixed desi and black because i need to throw myself in somewhere

DUDE WHEN I SAW THAT THIS WAS BASE GAME HAIR I SCREAMED

I WENT TO THE ADULT OPTIONS

AND THE HAIR IS ONLY FOR TODDLERS

I SUFFER

anyway, he needed a parent because he's 5

so i let sims choose his name

...okay

anyway, i decided to just let irving vibe with his outfits

and by that i mean i just looked at the fits and laughed

the two tones that do not compliment each other is giving fashion week

OK BUT WHAT EVEN IS THIS

IT'S SO FUCKING BAD I CAN'T

anyway, i kept all of these outfits and more

you wanna see the outfit that grover chose all by himself???

of course you do, and you must keep in mind that i based this outfit on what my 5-year-old cousin wore to my uncles wedding because he literally threw a tantrum at the thought of anything else

obviously grover is an angel and chose this outfit and was so proud of it, no one is allowed to say anything against it

it's because fish starts with the same sound as fancy -my cousin

as you can see, my cousin is clearly a genius

now, let's go into juniper

i'm only going to show one outfit for juniper because she isn't really important in the toddler arc of ihbwyftbom

she really starts to come into play when they're children and in middle school and then especially in their adult years

so i didn't do much with her:

LOL JK BECAUSE I ACCIDENTALLY DIDN'T SAVE THE GAME

anyway because making toddlers is actually really effing hard, i'm just going to age her up to be a child then freeze her until her arc starts

why did i choose this fit?

because i wanted the shirt

that's literally it

anyway she has parents which i completely randomized since they aren't mentioned and will never be mentioned

so um

meet AsHtOn Baek

who loves the outdoors so much, he made his one goal in life living the outdoors

but his actual traits have nothing to do with liking the great outside

in fact, he likes music (???) is romantic, and also mean

he also chose the outfit he's wearing

no, i will not change it, this is what sims wants lmao

now, meet his wife

this is dInA Baek

she loves money

she is also a fucking clown, like's to clean so much it literally became a part of her personality, and is also cheerful

she clearly also loves green and has a terrible fashion sense

do these people look anything like juniper? no.

once again, will i change it

no, because i don't want to anger sims

fun fact about sims, if i wanted to i could make juniper an actual tree person, they're called plant sims!

which means that it is entirely possible for me to make my multi-fic project into sims

and lemme tell you making the characters and houses and plot would be another year long project because good lord

anyway, i gave these people a cheap house and would have thought nothing of it

then i saw this

SOMEONE DIED HERE

which, given that it is set in NY, i figured it would add to the realism ya know? so i kept it

now for everyone else, they don't exist until they're in their teens, so that's where i'mn starting them off. then i'm going to freeze them like i'm doing to juniper except they'll be frozen for a little longer, but not too long since the best arcs start when they're in their teens

I started the teen arc characters with rachel because i happened to have a lot of CC that fit her already

say hi to rachel!

don't forget to also say hi to her abusive parents

this is kyeleigh, she's from utah and is a model mormon citizen who remained pure and true all her life

this is zayden (ALKDJHLF I LITERALLY COULDN'T HAVE COME UP WITH A MORE FITTING NAME, THANK YOU SIMS RANDOMIZER) kyeleigh's husband

both of which literally have the hate children trait, so i made sure they were parents

anyway, that's all i have time to do today and my face mask is literally like paper rn so adios

love y'all
