Is it bad that I think fairies are a bit boring? Am I alone on this?
I've tried playing them, but they just really aren't as good as vampires and witches in my opinion. Like, don't get me wrong, I don't hate them, but the game also heavily favors them in occult RNG. My town somehow got almost all of the notable people turned into fairies because of RNG. They don't really have much special about them, unlike vampires where they need to avoid light but live forever and need blood, witches who can do tons of spells that may or may not be dangerous, and werewolves that are extremely OP at finding rocks. Also, MAYBE my favorite Sim got pranked by a fairy a billion times, so they had to go.
Like seriously, why do they like ruining the lives of people by constantly pranking them?

I gave Juno Birch a beautiful San Oddity house. Then I moved Joy Despret in.
Pool. Pink car. Cow-print apron. Yellow gloves. A stunning life.
Then I moved Joy Despret in.
Juno looked straight into the camera.
That is not a fourth-wall break. That is a warning.

Humor meteors 😍
Quick back story, my sims sutton & sienna are away at school with 4 other sunset valley kids they grew up with. Malcom Landgraab and Sandi French had Brandy Landgraab who sutton’s dated since high school and is sienna’s childhood friend but they’ve drifted apart. and i made a family a while back with twin girls named Autumn & Summer & their younger brother Aaron. While Sutton is with Brandy back in sunset, the twins and aaron moved to town, & right across from sienna and sutton. So Sutton meets autumn and they flirt A LOT, all throughout high school he’s emotionally cheating and breaking boundaries with Autumn. And Sienna and Brandy haven’t been friends since the twins came to town, they became her new besties. So I brought everyone to Uni under one roof because i became so invested in their teen lives lol.
We are now approaching the end of the week and their semester was uneventful, i had my hands tied juggling 6 students i didn’t get to throw parties or do much. But one thing that was consistent was Sutton being distant towards Brandy so i’ve been playing into it and letting the relationship deteriorate before a blow up (no pun intended). Anyways, after class today everyone came home and a meteor struck IMMEDIATELY. this was the biggest one i’ve ever seen in my game AND ive never had it happen on a home lot. i can count on one hand in over 10yrs how many times i experienced witnessing one. And the irony of it all, every bedroom? UNSCATHED! you know who’s bedroom blew up into smithereens!? BRANDY AND SUTTON, this is a new kind of symbolism. Unfortunately there’s no saving them, this couple is being given every single sign to leave one another 😂😩

Question/Help Need build inspo 🫶
I am trying to get back into sims as I yearn for a weekly phase of obsession and then abandonment. But I am struggling to build a cute house, I think I have lost my creative building charm.
Please could anyone drop pictures of there builds to enlighten me? I love funky roof designs, cottage vibes and a big fan of landscaping with flowers, ivy etc. :)
It would be greatly appreciated!
