I chose sim!Pietros from my Spartacus household (AKA Pietut from my Ancient Egypt AU), in order to recreate @brenna-ivy‘s commission for the “bedroom of a witch who works with Egyptian deities and crystals” for The Sims 3!
Nagron and Bartros enjoy the rollercoasters of Pacifica!
Happy Pride Month!

MY THOUGHTS
This post was of course inspired by the rollercoasters in Pacifica, which V can ride while on a date with Johnny Silverhand--so freaking unexpected & adorable.
And yes, Nasir’s Bisexual-Pride ensemble was loosely inspired by CDPR’s trans ad for C2077.
And yes, Agron was eating a popsicle with his mask still on--listen, I was just as confused as you are; it was too late to stop him, I tried, lol.

Nagron is beauty, Nagron is grace, Nagron will fall right on their face. (-‸ლ)
These are technically just the outtakes from Pride 2021 PtA, as Nagron & Bartros also went bowling, and watching them had me LMFAO. XD I took so many pics, and decided to just make a separate post for all of them.
Even though my sins were NOT actually on the lot in the first pic, I HAD to reuse my footage from my WIP version of Pacifica’s rainbow hotel, which I already used in my Voodoo Boys gameplay here. It’s just the perfect place for Pride, come on.

- *crowd* What happened? I dunno, some Joytoy. Someone found it over there.
- (NCPD) Hey, hey, hey! What are you, from the press?! (camera-man) No, no. I'm from Orlando. (NCPD) I don't believe this. I got tourists photographing the body, Al!
- *crowd* Who was her pimp? She's a Mox, but drug's her pimp! She'd be out on these streets day in, day out, trading her sorry self for some fisstech.
- *crowd* Looks like the Tyger Claws got her in the end, though, not the fisstech.
- (Nasir) Hey, Skinny Marie! Has Pietros been in here? (Skinny Marie) Yeah, on the corner over there.
- (Pietros) Yo, Nas!
- (Pietros) Drinks, drinks! I got you one! (Nasir) Urgh, I need this--I just saw a girl pulled out of a Dumpster!
- (Pietros) I know. Barbie Chadara. But she was a flake, a crack head! Naevia was trying to straighten her out for months. (Nasir) Yeah, Diona's a mess, too. *sighs*
- (Nasir) Don't you want to get out of here? (Pietros) Get out of where? Where do you wanna go!? This is Night City--City of Dreams~~~! (Nasir) Yeah....
- (Pietros) And anywhere's better than the No Man's Land our Outputs run around in! (Nasir) Hey, speak for yourself! Agron says the dustbowl in Lucky Palms is moving away now. (Pietros) Sure, and Barca's yachting in Pacifica! *laughs*

I had something completely different planned for 2020′s Pride Month, but in light of the recent Black Lives Matter protests against police brutality and racial inequality, I decided to create this year’s TS3 content in support of both movements: LGBT+ and BLM.
I uploaded everything separately, so that y’all can pick and choose which stuff y’all want. Some of the CC are default replacements for basegame content, and content that requires the University EP.
Included are 5 basegame decor objects:
LGBT BLM Solidarity Banners
LGBT BLM Solidarity Pennants
LGBT BLM Solidarity Posters
LGBT BLM Solidarity Wall Decals
UNI Booth as End Table for LGBT BLM Solidarity (BASEGAME)
Plus 6 retextures for EA’s functional items:
EA Picket Sign Default Replacement (BLM) Deltalbuild
EA Picket Sign Default Replacement (LGBT) Deltalbuild
EA Picket Sign Default Replacement (BLM) Fullbuild
EA Picket Sign Default Replacement (LGBT) Fullbuild
UNI EP Booth Default Replacement for BLM (REQUIRES UNI EP)
UNI EP Booth Default Replacement for LGBT (REQUIRES UNI EP)
NOTE: You can only install ONE (1) Default Replacement retexture for each Deltabuild type, each Fullbuild type, or each Booth type at a time.
FLAWS: Sorry all the retextures are so grainy -- the UV maps are TINY. U_U
And also included are 5 CAS items:
Black Lives Matter Tshirts for Kids
Black Lives Matter Tshirts for Toddlers
LGBT Jacket Tops for YA/AM
LGBT Ships Jacket Tops Pt1 (Spartacus) for YA/AM
LGBT Ships Jacket Tops Pt2 (Shadowhunters) for YA/AM
And that’s everything! Enjoy!

OBJECTS / RETEXTURES
EA Picket Signs
I took EA’s regular protest signs and retextured them.
There’s one version for Black Lives Matter:
And there’s another version for LGBT+ Pride:
Y’all can cycle through ALL the variations in my post here.
I was confused making these, cuz there’s picket sign textures in TS3′s Deltabuild game file AND Fullbuild game file. The Fullbuild version has more variations, and is the one that actually showed up in my game, but IDK if that’s cuz of the kind of protest I started? I know there are Basegame protests, and University EP Protests, but IDEK which are which, so have all of them. XD
You can only install ONE Deltabuild and ONE Fullbuild sign together at a time!
BOOTHS
There are 2 variations, for BLM or LGBT+.
NOTE: You can only install ONE (1) variation at a time!
The retextured default replacement booths REQUIRE the UNI EP!
There is also a BASEGAME Booth as End Table version, which has decorative slots to it so you can place megaphones and extra fliers or whatnot on them.
WALL ART
LGBT BLM Solidarity Banners
LGBT BLM Solidarity Posters
LGBT BLM Solidarity Pennants & LGBT BLM Solidarity Wall Decals
Like a doofus I forgot to take more pics of these, my bad. U_U

CAS CC
BLM Tshirts for Kids & Toddlers
I love Circasims’ BLM shirts, but I looked all over for ones for kids and couldn’t find anything, so I just quickly took all the stencils and slapped them on EA’s basegame tshirts.
LGBT Jackets as Tops
I took the Gucci-fied frankenmesh I created here, and redid all the patches and pins for Pride! 🏳️🌈🌈
LGBT Jacket Top for YA/AM
I realized that I’d eventually want a few generic jackets, and whipped up variations for Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Asexual. The Queer/Pan version is the exact same one I used for Gwyn ap Nudd, cuz laziness.
NOTE: The personalized jackets don’t make much sense if you’re not familiar with the characters and my gameplay headcanons for them. I wasn’t gonna share them at all, initially, but figured the more the merrier? XD
Y’all can see more pics of the patches & pins in my post here: Generic, Spartacus, Shadowhunters.
LGBT Ships Jacket Top Pt1 (Spartacus) for YA/AM
Personalized jackets for the four main sims from my Spartacus inspired household: Nasir & Agron (the canon Nagron ship), and Barca & Pietros (the canon Bartros ship).
LGBT Ships Jacket Top Pt2 (Shadowhunters) for YA/AM
Personalized jackets for the four main sims from my Shadowhunters inspired household: Magnus & Alec (the canon Malec ship), and Gwyn ap Nudd & Diana (the canon Gwynburn ship from the books).
Pride 2020: Bartros & Nagron at the LGBT+ Community Center
"History isn't something you look back at and say it was inevitable, it happens because people make decisions that are sometimes very impulsive and of the moment, but those moments are cumulative realities.... How many years has it taken people to realize that we are all brothers and sisters and human beings in the human race?”

MY THOUGHTS
Considering the absolute crapfest of 2020, what with the pandemic and the BLM protests against police brutality and racial inequality, I just wanted my Spartacus inspired household to have a pleasant yet informative and supportive day in a safe place for people of all backgrounds.
(I already said my piece about Black Lives Matter in my Bartros post here.)

Oh!—fruit loved of boyhood!—the old days recalling,
When wood-grapes were purpling and brown nuts were falling!
When wild, ugly faces we carved in its skin,
Glaring out through the dark with a candle within!
When we laughed round the corn-heap, with hearts all in tune,
Our chair a broad pumpkin,—our lantern the moon.
-- “The Pumpkin” (1850)
Duro tells Pietros, Nasir and Diona the tale of Stingy Jack, the origin story of the jack-o-lantern. The three get so creeped out that Barca has to intervene. Mad that his fun’s been cut short, Duro takes his anger out on a few hapless pumpkins. However....
What goes around comes back around, and with the barrier between worlds at its thinnest, Duro’s negative energy summons forth a creature that gives Duro a scare of his own! 🎃🎃

You’d think Duro had learned his lesson by now.... XD
