Simblr of Firefly's Locket! Home of my self sim's multi-game adventures, the return of The Sparks Legacy, my Timeline characters, and descendants of premades.
Hi, this is Firefly’s Locket, and you’ve found my Simblr! I’ve been playing The Sims since 2001, and my favorite game in the series is The Sims 2.
I enjoy playing with a variety of sims, both premade and original. I like making my The Timeline characters as sims and seeing what they get up to in-game. I wrote commentary for my Sparks Legacy for 7 years, and I am finally bringing it back.
I play mostly Wants-based, with a loose level of rotational play (for my current favorites 😆), but I don’t adhere to any system or rule set exactly. I just like going with the flow and seeing what adventures my pixel people take me on.
I am WCIF friendly! However, I have CC from 20 years of playing the game, so I might not always know/remember what something is or where to find it. I will try my best! ❤️

My neighborhoods are not connected, but intended to be AUs of each other. 😅 Someday I will play a real Uberhood!
I really liked the shape of LucillaSim's beautiful conversion of the upcycled jeans but I wasn't fond of TS4's default textures so I made a mash-up with jean textures from spannersims and some colourful high tops from LadyFu
Details under the cut. :)
here is the swatch, numbered in order from left to right.
this is for teen through adult female with the teen recolours repo'd to the adult (yay, learning!)
huge thank you to all the creators who make such beautiful things and share so freely. <3
So Priscilla requested the Satin Robe from this set by Caio as part of their last requests on Patreon and I decided I wanted to do all of them, and I'm finally finished! (With Caio's part, anyways... Should I do Serenity's next?)
There are four pairs of pajamas, only for AF right now but I could do TF/EF in the future maybe. I made the tops and bottoms into fullbody pajamas because that's just a personal preference but they'd be easy to separate so I could do that too sometime.
Everything has morphs, is compressorized, and includes a swatch. Everything is in one rar but in individual folders so you can delete anything you don't want. I of course am obligated to say that these aren't perfect. I definitely started running out of steam (as why I decided to not do the choker in the end) so as always, please feel free to point out any issues that I missed I won't be upset 🤗 I love creating, but a patient person I am not!
❗❗ 8/11/23 zip has been updated, I made some changes to the normals on the satin robe because of an issue @kalux-sims pointed out to me. It's still not 100% but it's better! Download and let replace!
I don’t take requests, but I do occasionally steal them! I saw that @platinumaspiration had a request for this top from anon, and I messaged her about it because it has been on my to-do list for ages, and I know she already has a WIP list as long as my arm!
She still gets major credit on this one though since I had plenty of questions and needed help troubleshooting to get me here!
The top is available for TF-AF, with morphs, categorized for everyday and pajamas. Left Sim in the screenshot is modelling it as pajamas with the adult fat morph, right Sim is modelling everyday with the teen fit morph.
You can have the teen files standalone or repo’d to the adult files.
Despite Sim Quarter's old-world charm, the most popular spot in the Quarter for locals is the Multiplayer Café. Stop by, chat, grab a cup o' joe, and trade with or challenge your friends to head-to-head play!
I think this is my fave Miniopolis recreation so far (maybe a tie with Mambo Loa's shop). I had so much fun with this one. And took about one million pictures. It was so hard to narrow down which ones to post.
I also created a whole lore for this place, combining some Sims 4 lore with the Urbz handheld, I came up with this:
For years this cafe was home to Gramma Hattie's Bakery. As a pillar of the Sim Quarter community, Gramma Hattie helped build the area up into the flourishing art district it is today, and her bakery was at the center of it. However, in recent years she noticed the young folk didn't really have a place to hang out and connect. So she transformed the lower half of her shop into a hip gaming cafe to draw the young crowd in off the streets.
She still keeps the upstairs for her bakery, offering a quite cozy atmosphere for the more bookish old-soul types. And you can catch her on the weekends at the Sim Quarter Market where she keeps a stall to sell her baked goods.
I will share some photos of the upstairs bakery in another post!
