Naruto blew his arm off in a final fight with Sasuke that also blew off Sasuke's arm (rasengen exploding against whatever the hell Sasuke's hand thing was as it also exploded). All of the big bads were defeated and Sasuke decided, then, that he needed to kill all the hokage out of the blue for shits and giggles while they were all helpless and unconscious because - well, he's Sasuke. So -of course- he and Naruto had to fight. Afterward there were exactly zero repercussions for anything Sasuke had done the entire time and they both got clone arms.
ā¦Iā¦wHUT. Even for this seriesā¦thatās definitely a trip. I got so burned out with the never-ending Ninja War Episodes (and losing my spot) that I kinda skipped over to the sparksnotes version. Which did include āand then they foughtā buuutā¦nothing about these two idiots blowing eachothersā arms offā¦

Thank you! It was one of my favorite lot to build. If youāre interested in seeing more of the place (itās also a fire station), Iāve re-visited a video tour I made back in 2015 with my then 6 yo oldest nephew (he is 11 now). Thatās when he decided to make that drawing for my game ^^

Thank you! It actually gave me the perfect excuse to revisit TV series from the late 90s, early 2000, totally for inspiration purposes of course *coughcough* ;-D Ā Itās super fun to build and decorate for Sims 2 towns in the Sims 3 and make me use things I wouldnāt use for a French sim-town (which are more up my alley). This one was a diner in Pleasantview: (sorry for the v. bright pic :-/)
@samkat10423 said: I donāt remember these, but I do like them. Nicely done!
I posted them on TSD, in my Sim3fied thread :-D I still have the original post as I save everything (coz temperamental internet connection ^^). I had also posted that WIP map (below) but that was it about Strangetown I think. The rest of the thread was about Pleasantview.
@samkat10423 said: Wow, Tedhi! This is just perfect! And I know you didnāt share this over on TSD. I would have remembered it. Love this!
@headspacedadā said: wow! These look like so much fun and they fit the theme so perfectly. I would download every single one to play with!
Thank you! They were a lot of fun to ādesignā !! Most of the lots still exist somewhere on my computer, so donāt hesitate to let me know if youāre interested in any of them Ā I can fish them out (though some are on big lots or are barely started) or find where most of the cc used comes from. :-)
I might have way too many towns but Iām a mood-player and was in an alieninvasion-armycoveredup- alieninbarelytheredisguisewholivesinthemostmisplacedhouseever- kinda mood when building this town ^^
Had pb commenting Ā so couldnāt say it on your post but Ā @laurademelza Iāll see your Ledisizilla (she was adorable in a gigantic way, btw <3) and I raise you a Buzz-illa (General Buzz Grunt, way less adorable) from early days Strangetown (circa 2015). ;-D
Found the pictures while looking through my archives ^^
headcanon time! Do you have certain songs that fit certain couples and why did you pick that/those songs? (leaving open how many of your ships you want to list and how many songs per ship)
The first songs that come to mind are all from MĆ„ns Zelmerlƶw. 1 Shallura and 2 Klance (one from Lanceās PoV and one from Keithās):
This is the Shallura one:Ā
Klance from Keithās PoV:
and Klance from Lanceās PoV and this is TERRIBLE AND I REGRET NOTHING:Ā
I also think his songĀ āHope & Gloryā is a great Voltron song in general:
(If you want to get shippy with it, you can pick out specific verses for ships pretty easily, but, really, I like it as just VOLTRON because, to me, that show should be all about hope and not a fucking tragedy...)
I think if you listen to the lyrics, youāll see why I picked them. ^_^ (Also, I just... really like MĆ„ns... <3)Ā
I pick songs for my OCs a lot, but thereās usually not a song thatās for a romantic relationship between two OCs. ...Usually.
headspacedad replied to your post: I was looking at some of my stuff on my FF.net...
absolutely! I did/am doing that (sloooowly, oh so slowly) with some of my old FFVII stuff. People I used to chat meta with have found me again plus a whole bunch of new readers. Plus you canāt trust ff.net not to just disappear one day. Save that Stuff!
I didnāt even consider finding old friends! Many of the writers I used to chat with in older fandoms appear to have disappeared off the face of FF.net, but thatās not to say they didnāt move elsewhere, or change their names. I know Iāve gotten plenty of comments on my Voltron stuff, or here, that are more or lessĀ āAre you the same Velkyn Karma that wrote [x] on FF.net???ā So thatās definitely a good thought!
The effort level would be pretty huge for some fics...the thought of trying to transition any of my old One Piece stuff makes me cringe a little. Thereās so much of it and itās so long. And I would definitely want to at least give them cursory edits to fix old writing issues, like typos and run-on sentences. So those I might not tackle...or at least, not right away. And I probably wouldnāt bother with some of the SUPER old ones, or ones I just donāt really care for anymore. But the ones I still like...yeah. Maybe.
You are absolutely right about FF.net nerfing stuff too...so thatās definitely something to consider as well.
So everything good about voltron was an accident/stuff the writers were forced to do and everything they wanted to do we all hated? God itās like Iām watching rwby. Perhaps all the bullshit can all be fixed if the executives who told them to expand on shiro and other stuff they didnāt want to do just write the show themselves? Just throwing it out there.
Iām not sure how it works when writing a TV show. I know May Chan had to be credited forĀ āA Little Adventure,ā even though she hadnāt had a writing credit for VLD since Season 3. So she must have written part of the episode, prior to her leaving the show. (Come back, Ms. Chan!)
And according to my conversations with @sol1056, people are paid by the title they hold on a show - staff writer, head editor, etc. So I canāt say for sure how the season we got came to fruition.Ā
However,Ā @headspacedad had this idea from an earlier conversation.Ā Ā
ā¦if [the EPs] couldnāt write the story - someone did and handed it to them. [The EPs] then took the scissors to it and cut and pasted the ābetterā story they now want back pats for, mangling it beyond repair. Thatās infuriating on an entirely different levelā¦
This chocolate pie is all ready to go - but you know what would make it better?! Mayonnaise! Letās pull out most of the chocolate and replace it with mayo without bothering do anything with the crust or getting rid of all the chocolate - see? Ā Itās still a chocolate pie BUT BETTER!Ā
headspacedad replied to your post: Is Curtis his actual honest to goodness canon...
apparently its in the captions if you turn them on. He makes a comment and his name shows up in the [character name goes here]. At least thatās what Iāve heard and I donāt care enough to go back and check
When you get a chance, check out headspacedad's take on the bi/panphobia in the fandom regarding Shiro. It really hits the nail on the the head.
just read it here and it was quite good, i agree. i think it looks more at fandom culture than the underlying message that bi/panphobia actually presents, but we need both those things to create a full discussion of something. thanks for the rec!
