Ooh this is sweet a treat for you guys! Here's how it's set it up below: a paragraph of ideas, three dream dates from $--$$-$$$ (for fun!!) and a canon (past or future) favorite date of their's. Each separated by guy of course!
I miss our hybrid babies!! Hope you enjoy this. And I'm so excited for THE TOURRRRRRRR
<3 Love you! xxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Seokjin is a homebody, and loves dates that can show off his many skills while also remaining cozy at home. Cooking a nice dinner together and watching a movie. Taking a bath or a nap together. Discussing nerdy fandoms (such as Lord of the Rings) while lounging around in a patch of sunlight. That's not to say, however, that the jaguar hybrid wouldn't enjoy dates outside, as well as more adventurous ones, too-- keep in mind, Seokjin likes to show off ability/capability and he loves to spoillll. Taking her out to a fancy dinner. More cooking classes. A real fishing trip off the coast of Cape Cod, catching everything they eat on the chartered boat.
$ - Making comfort food at home, pillow fort in his bedroom, romance movies, endless cuddles
$$ - Getting ice cream oceanside, walking along the beach and boardwalk/seaside shops, picking up fresh seafood to make at home afterwards
$$$ - Private dinner at a Michelin star-awarded restaurant (I'm talking candles, 12-courses, the works) followed by a stay at a very nice hotel for the evening... think robes, room service, privacy...
Seokjin's favorite date will forever be the one where he and Y/N confessed to one another, the Valentine's Day cooking class. He'd love to make that a tradition <3
All Yoongi really cares about is quality time with Y/N, and could turn even a grocery date into something romantic, but he'd love a shared interest date. Bar-hopping the best spots in the city, taking the subway all giddy and in love. Picking out sheet music together and taking the day to learn it, or composing together. Then, there's the Yoongi who likes to show you off, and secretly lovesss a bit of glamor on fancier dates. Exclusive speakeasies, getting dressed up for the occasion. Tickets to the symphony, ballet, or movie premiere. Saving up to design matching jewelry for each other (omg)
$ - A piano lesson, a charcuterie board, and an evening in the game room playing pool and... fooling around (iykyk)
$$$- Picking out nice outfits AND accessories for one another, going to a nighttime market in the city/catch an arthouse film, eating pizza by the slice picnic-style in the Common
$$$ - Planning a weekend trip to a whiskey distillery or a vineyard for tastings, food pairings, and time to catch up in a cozy, almost storybook-like inn. Would probably surprise Y/N w the jewelry they designed
A favorite date of Yoongi's would actually be catching a movie at a drive-in, getting burgers and milkshakes at a diner, and pretending like it was the 80's for a night. Whimsy <3
Hoseok honestly wins the award of most fun date, and the best planner. Wants to get her blood pumping and surprise her! Competitive bowling, mini-golf, even laser tag. Going on regular hikes, a rock-climbing date. Making a DIY "waterpark" in the back yard (sprinklers LOL). Either it would be a fun adventure, or Hoseok would plan something sexy and romantic, sensual or relaxing for both of them. A couple's dance class, Tango or "Dirty Dancing" style. He'd learn massage techniques, planning an intimate evening in to experiment. Planning a short trip to somewhere warm, a resort or a spa~
$ - Making kites together to fly, going on a sunset walk, playing games in his bedroom later on such as "Never Have I Ever" or "Truth or Dare" until things heat up too much (OMG!)
$$ - To put those dance lessons to use, Hoseok would buy Y/N a new dress for her to wear and take her somewhere they could listen to good music and let loose...
$$$ - His dream date would be a tropical romantic getaway, perfectly balanced with active fun (paddle boarding!), relaxation (spa treatments!), and romance (ahem.) Making sure his girl is getting treated like a QUEEN.
Thrills and frills aside, Hoseok's favorite date(s) would always be one Y/N would plan. One in particular: a scavenger hunt that would lead them around all of their favorite spots in town, ending with takeout and cuddling <3
Dating would be new terrain for Namjoon, but he'd always take romance with Y/N deathly serious. She's his one and only mate for life after all, and he'd study what dates she'd love to go on, too. He'd find hidden cozy book stores to take her to. Events at the Museum of Fine Arts, with champagne and charity auctions. Going on a mini-roadtrip to Salem for Halloween, staying in a historical bed and breakfast. As he'd become more comfortable with his vulnerable, softer side, that's when he'd start to enjoy private, intimate dates. Reading to her (classics? lore? erotica?) while she takes a bath, discussing the book late into the night beneath his sheets. Camping, taking the van, stargazing. Creating a combined book of memories and knowledge together, over many dates.
$ - Playing several rounds of chess, paint-and-sip, reading each other's Tarot, falling asleep skin-to-skin
$$ - First, going to a show at the Planetarium at the Museum of Science, then catch some live music together, followed by a walk through at least two dessert shops for pastries to share later in the evening.
$$$ - Could definitely meticulously plan a long-term roadtrip hitting up every "haunted" or "magical" place Y/N wished to visit, all in the name of spending endless time with her, and the $ would of course go towards nice places to stay. Stealing her away lmao
Namjoon's favorite date? The day (rainy, hopefully) spent in the library together, ducking in and out of coffee shops, sharing an umbrella, playing a cat-and-mouse game of blatant flirting and PDA until someone broke!
Hopeless romantic Jimin would have dream dates prior to ever meeting Y/N. His daydreams would begin to revolve around her, and he'd always end up planning something straight out of a novel. Picnics-- he'd pick a stunning spot, pack a basket, catch fireflies when the sun goes down. Going berry or apple picking, ice skating, cherry blossom viewing: seasonal dates. Making something together, such as a birdhouse. The coyote also has a sense of wild adventure/urge for exploration, as does Y/N: Day or weekend trips up and down the East Coast, checking tourist traps off of a bucket list. Going to an amusement park as a date, wearing matching outfits, of course. Finding a state fair, eating from food trucks and buying each other trinkets.
$ - Gardening date, naturally! Sunshine, iced tea, doing some flower arranging together and picking herbs for dinner, an evening ride through the trails with Vista
$$ - Going into the city, afternoon spent admiring architecture, then getting high tea (with the mini sandwiches and scones!) followed by catching a show/ballet
$$$ - Tickets to a botanical garden at night, where they professionally light the foliage and play live music, a proper candlelit dinner, and attending the afterparty (classy!)
Jimin's all-time favorite date would be setting up a projector screen in the backyard, against the stable, and watching old classics with Y/N on a warm summer night. Surrounded by their garden, on plenty of cozy blankets and pillows :')
Taehyung is as creative as he is... intense, when it comes to the kind of dates he dreams of going on. He wants to get deep, get weird, make art, the kind of way you can only get with a lover. Going to late-night record spinning cafes, tucked away in a hidden booth until closing, chatting over cocktails. Planning and taking suggestive photoshoots, turning them into art books or even films. Enjoying artsy nightlife (local music, galleries, dancing) until the sun comes up, getting a little lost together. He's also... such a lover of the home, lazing around, clinging to Y/N as a date. Making shared playlists and burning them on CDs. Asking Y/N to show him how to meditate, or make protective pouches. Buying washable paint to use on each other for.... photos!
$ - They'd go out at the crack of dawn to pick up fresh donuts and coffee, catching the sunrise for pictures of the sky AND each other, returning later in the afternoon to develop the photos at home
$$ - Get drinks at the brewery (Salem's, in the fic), pick up expensive wine to enjoy with takeout, tipsily mess around with cameras at home
$$$ - Heading into the city, spending the entire day thrifting clothes and records for one another, check into a hotel for the night, then change into the new outfits and head to a jazz club <3
Hands down, Taehyung's favorite date would be renting a photo studio with money from his photography club and taking a boudoir shoot of/with Y/N. Pretty sets, props, outfits and uh.. lace! He'd keep snapshots in his wallet.
Jeongguk might not be known for being a romantic, but that wouldn't mean he'd be a nonchalant lover. He'd love opportunities to be protective, or even possessive, and would also love to please/show off. Taking her to underground metal concerts, but keeping her well-guarded from the pit, buying her whatever merch she wanted. Axe throwing, treating her to her favorite meal when he inevitably does better than her. Going to an arcade as a date, winning enough tickets to get her the biggest plushie they have. The elk hybrid is a secret softie, and would put effort into taking her to nice spots (he'd be a blushing mess) so he could hear her gush over him. Rooftop bars and restaurants on anniversaries, like clockwork, with gifts and desserts with candles. VIP tickets to her favorite band's show. Planning a date that would end with a fireworks show.
$ - Easy. He'd pick a new haunted location, whisk her away, and see what kind of trouble they could stir up. The only twist: if they don't catch anything paranormal, they'll find better use of the film...
$$ - Going out for all-you-can-eat hot pot/KBBQ/sushi, going on a nighttime ghost tour, horror movie marathon neither of them pay attention to back at home
$$$ - Traveling overseas with Y/N, even just for a long weekend, particularly to Vatican City or Transylvania. A romantic European vacation, in particularly spiritually charged spots with his girl is his dream expensive "date". Capturing evidence would be a bonus
Jeongguk's favorite date oh my goodness. He'd eventually find a tattoo shop he liked in town, and he'd casually suggest matching ink or a piercing. Well, it would happen, and they'd get to soothe each other through the process the whole time.....
Finally, after hours of hours of procrastinating on my assignments and learning how to code - finding myself in a constant losing battle with choicescript - I have a semi-working demo!
It's super broken with a million and one spelling errors and I'm still learning how I want to do stats, but the game is playable. I just wanted to introduce you lovely people to my writing style, the Curator, Jackie, and the Trouvaille universe.
In this initial launch, you can expect:
An introduction to Sacramento as it appears in the Trouvaille universe
Meet Pablo the Cat
Meet Jackie the Human
Flirt with Jackie the Human
Be late for work
In the next update, you can expect (date TBD):
Create your Curator!
Less typos! (Probably)
See Trouvaille for the first time
Meet Theo
And more!
I really hope you like it and thank you 800 followers! I appreciate all the love and support I've recieved from the IF community. Now, without further ado, the link: https://dashingdon.com/go/10701
Hey everyone! I finally get to share with you all this rental/ residential build I created for My Wedding Stories. “But Andy, didn’t My Wedding Stories come out weeks ago?! This is old news” why yes you’re correct, however homeboy has been depressed and playing other games that have taken his attention away for awhile. Also I couldn’t stay focus for long enough while building so it turned this build into a rather lengthy timeline. But regardless, weeks later we’re finally here! Welcome to Trouvaille, a rental for lovebirds & soulmates in mind. I won’t go too much into the story about this place, since the description on the gallery gives some backstory! Even though this lot took a long time to build, I had a blast building it. From the calm tea room, private outdoor sitting area and a romantic tub on the patio of the principal bedroom that’s relaxing, peaceful and wonderful area for your Sims to fu-… connect with one another in Mediterranean Bliss! Hope y’all enjoy it!❤️
Authors note: Hey humans! This is a comic I've been thinking about making for a while. So now that the script is done for part one, I get to start it! yay:)
And why not start off with good old Cc and his familiar, Pione;)
Solingen, le 5 mai 1953
Mon chéri, mon grand amour
J’ai reçu cet après-midi tes 2 lettres du 2 et 4, j’avais tant attendu hier et ce matin. Chéri, et toi aussi tu as attendu, n’est-ce pas ? Je ne t’ai pas écrit depuis samedi soir, excuse moi, mon amour, tu m’avais écrit dans une de tes lettres que tu partirais peut-être le 5 ou 6 de Berlin et je voulais d’abord avoir une lettre de toi (je croyais lundi matin) pour le savoir exactement, si cela avait été vrai, tu n’aurais plus reçu mes lettres à Berlin. C’est pour ça, Roger, tu ne m’en veux pas, n’est-ce pas ? Je t’écris ce soir et j’apporterai la lettre à la poste tout de suite, comme ça la recevras encore à Berlin, j’en suis presque sûre.
Ton nouvel appareil photo est très bien, c’est le mieux, il est tout petit. J’espère que tu pourras faire des jolies photos là-bas, mon chéri, et ce que je souhaite de tout mon cœur c’est que ça va mieux quand tu arriveras là-bas. On ne peut rien dire maintenant mais crois-tu que ça dureras encore longtemps ? Je crois les communistes réussiront très vite à prendre Laos, et après... qui sait !
C’est dommage que nous ne pouvons pas nous voir encore une fois chéri, tu pars vendredi soir et tu seras à Francfort samedi matin. J’aurais pu venir samedi, j’aurais travaillé chaque jour une heure de plus pour rattraper le temps. mais enfin, qu’est-ce qu’on veut faire, je sais, ce n’est pas ta faute, mon amour, toi non plus tu ne peux rien faire, mon cher petit Roger, croyons que cela est le mieux comme ça, peut-être ça nous aurait fait trop mal de nous dire au revoir encore une fois après quelques heures n’est-ce pas ? Je suis quand même avec toi, tu le sais, toujours et partout.
Mon chéri, j’espère que tu n’as plus mal à la dent, je crois que ça doit être terrible, c’est tellement que tu dois rester 3 jours sans travailler ?
Maintenant je veux te raconter un peu ce que j’ai fait depuis le dimanche mon chéri. Le matin j’avais dormi jusqu’à 10 heures, après nous avons écouté un peu la radio. Nous avons mangé de bonne heure, et à midi nous sommes partis (ma tante, ma cousine et moi) pour faire une promenade. Ici il faisait aussi un temps splendide, il faisait très chaud. Je joint à cette lettre une carte postale. C’est là où nous avons fait notre promenade, 2 heures 1/2 de Solingen. C’est un château avec une toute petite ville autour, c’est vraiment très, très joli. il y avait beaucoup de monde. Tout ça se trouve sur un mont, tu ne peux pas voir cela très bien sur la carte. Le soir nous étions à la maison, nous étions assez fatigué. Hier il n’y avait rien de neuf, seulement que j’étais déçu de n’avoir pas de lettre de toi, mon chéri, et ce matin j’étais encore plus triste c’est terrible. Et il faut toujours faire une mine contente, il faut rire, même si je ne peux pas, parce que les autres ne savent rien et ils ne comprennent pas. Quelquefois je me sens si seule et si triste je ne peux pas te dire comment, et c’est comme ça aujourd’hui. les 3 dernières nuits j’ai très mal dormi, même dans la nuit il faut penser. Chéri, je t’écris tout cela parce que je crois que tu comprends et je ne peux écrire ça qu’a toi seul. C’est tellement dûr quelquefois, surtout les soirs je pense je ne veux rien que dormir, et même ça je ne peux pas. c’est terrible !
Maintenant je veux te dire encore quelque chose de Gisèle que ma mère m’as écrit. Je n’ai pas encore une lettre d’elle. Gisèle est a Bad Sachsa à présent. Ma mère a parlé avec sa mère. Elle ne veut plus retourner à Berlin finir l’école. Elle veut retourner en France avec Paul et les 2 veulent aller en Amérique. Mais le père de Gisèle ne sait pas encore tout cela, je ne crois pas qu’il serait d’accord. C’est tout ce que je sais. Qu’est-ce que tu en penses ?
Mon amour chéri il est déjà 9 heures, il faut que j’ailles encore à la poste, et je ne veux pas faire ça tout de suite, ça fait 20 minutes pour y aller. Mein Liebling, mon tout, je te souhaite un très bon voyage jusqu’à Paris, tu penses au jour où nous avons fait le voyage ensemble ? Je penserais à toi chéri, vendredi soir vers 9 heures, comme toujours n’est-ce pas ? Es-tu très content de quitter Berlin? Moi je penserais quand même souvent à Berlin, nous avons passé beaucoup de beau jours là, n’est ce pas mon chéri ?
Pour ce soir, mon grand bonheur, reçois milles tendres baisers et caresses. je t’embrasse de tout mon cœur qui t’aime tant. Chéri, c’est la dernière lettre que je t’envoi à Berlin.
