Sky Cotton and Astral Lune

Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
‘Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes you’re holding mine 

So… Kimmy @livingplumbobs and I made sims for Holly’s @berrysweetplumbob Seven Song’s legacy… and… I ship them so much. It’s not even funny. I AM SUCH A PROUD SIM MAMMA RIGHT NOW. Someone, please stop me. In all honesty, though, they look amazing together.

The Cutting Room Floor #1

I thought it would be fun to talk about what could have been. These are all plot points that I have considered but decided not to go with. If you find this interesting, let me know! 

The Many Faces of Sirius Blossite

#1 – Sirius was not always going to be the bad, bad man that he turned out to be. In the original draft of the story, he was the one that talked Altair into leaving. They were going to remain, friends, even after she ran away.

#2 – Funny enough? Altair and Sirius are actual townies I made before I started Simblr. They are actually a happily married couple in my Not So Berry save. I just really liked Altair so I decided to use her.

Why the changes: I felt like the plot was kind of… I don’t know, boring? I wanted to explore something more dark and twisted. I also felt since Foxglove and Ume were already such “nice guys” that I didn’t want Sirius to be one too. Sorry, Sirius. 

Ume Hanakatoba and the death of Foxglove Glade

#1 – Foxglove was originally going to die in a fire, not as part of a murder plot.

#2 – Altair wasn’t going to be at the Yoga studio with Clover while he died. She was actually going to be cheating on him with Ume.

Why the changes: I changed the way Foxglove died because it ultimately served as a way to make Ume a detective and build up later points to integrate Sirius into the story. As for the cheating? It really doesn’t fit with the character I designed Ume to be. Altair is very impulsive and lives life by her emotions. Ume, on the other hand, is very level-headed and tends to put other’s feelings before his own. 

Ume: Why is that hard to believe?

Altair: I mean… have you looked at yourself. Clearly, it can’t be because no one has expressed interest. Haven’t you ever wanted anyone?

Ume: I have.

Altair: And? Why haven’t you pursued anything?

Ume: Maybe I’m waiting on her to let me know she’s interested.

Altair: Hmm…
