layton sweeney & rosemary calhoun being my favorites, colorized 2021; a comeback
sooo i gave everyone makeovers. and decided on a new editing style. and gave myself more free time to return to what i loved. and i just really missed this save after playing other saves i'd end up getting bored with. and i know i still need to get my page situated bear with me. and pretty much all the set up from the last time i posted... pretend that doesn't exist. probably. and--
unnecessarily long intro: originally brought into the world around one crashing brindleton bay shoreline, there’s no mistake when one says Ines’ life tends to ebb and flow in the same manner as the waves she could still hear from her open bedroom window. her many trips to the lighthouse wove the very thread that trailed to her sanity in the labyrinth that was dealing with her family - a little escapism never hurt anyone in ages of confusion. feeling off-put in a house of six wasn’t irrational. she wanted to learn everything she could about the world, about anything she couldn’t already comprehend and even the gritty details of the subjects she did. with little support from struggling parents, Ines took up small jobs just to afford her own...snug...apartment in san myshuno - a cultural and artiscially-inclined hub for anyone who wished to be exposed to new things. it was the perfect place for a girl like her, one would only think, but it would never feel as comforting to her as brindleton bay. Ines wishes to publish her own books someday: of poetry, love, and adventure as her big, wandering heart desires. while “family” is a word that’s always been a bit anxiety-inducing, it doesn’t negate Ines’ quieter desire to have one she doesn’t feel the need to take a walk away from all the time. the hopeless romantic in her sings stronger with how easily attached she can be to those that interest her just as much as learning.
odd tid-bits:
this bab is really just a mush if you make her laugh when she’s trying to be serious or goes on rambles over minuscule subjects
her favorite color is marigold through and through
has been trying to catch mr. whiskers for years but now she’s moved and that still upsets her on the low
would honestly even love to have friends cause her apartment has been her cave and this oldie thinks being friends with the lighthouse keeper was Good Enough
really just heavily inspired by florence + the machine’s high hopes album oops ? ? ?
pretty sure if you could make sims snort when they laugh she’d do so if you get her worked up enough
always tries anything once, and if she likes it you might not hear the end of it for a time
pie over cake what in the World
she’s really got a soft spot for seeing close relationships and will do just about anything to make strong bonds last. her old childhood buds will still get a text from her every now and then to keep the door open (still misses lighthouse keeper most tho i’m sorry)
the one to make obnoxious signs when someone graduates because she’s forever proud of new achievements and thinks other people should be too even if they’re small
hey! im a.. new simblr with a really dry dashboard that needs filling up?
the name’s elf and im an alpha simmer (but that’s not really noticeable)! my simblr’s going to be filled with a whole bunch of edits because that’s all i can do successfully.

also me: has this. this...catastrophe. makes it my header.
from childhood sweetheart to the mother of their first child - though the latter be unexpected - there’s no place layton would want to be in life without rosemary by his side. she teases now that it was his wicked monkeybar skills that really reeled her in for so long. maybe that and his development over the years. if anyone’s seen his transformation personally, it would be rosemary.
while having a baby so early wasn’t on their exact agenda, she’s kept an optimistic outlook on it all despite. she was thankful to be brought in by olive and markus when her parents moved and she refused to go, and now her and layton reside in san myshuno with their daughter elspeth. to her, everything that’s happened, regardless of how draining, has been for a reason. jumping from place to place with her hands a little full isn’t enough for her to complain when the family she’s collected along the way is indefinitely the best she’s had.
living in the city had always been a dream of hers, it’s just a bonus that she gets to spend it with those special to her. sentimental and resourceful, rosemary’s taken to making flower arrangements and gardening on their apartment rooftop to contribute to funds and find something she can call her own.
