@vlagg22 I have acquired a better picture of Vi hoarding the shade of the umbrella like a little goblin <3

A bit of a hot take but as much as I love the girls they kinda... boring in a sense. There's almost no dynamic between any of them, their personality is very lacking, all of them are just the same to me. And most of the spices or exciting things about them that we see in the fandom are usually headcanons the fans made about them. Heck I cant even buy the fact that they are close friends/sisters because they are so lacking as characters im sorry. I really wish they developed the girls more

heck I think mlp is much better at showing a close girl groups than them and I don't even like mlp

To aid me on my quest of extreme procrastination, I've decided to translate the French version of The Dragon's Code. For context, the non-English versions of the Thea Stilton books have little extended scenes at the end that are basically just the main characters chilling after solving the mystery. There's quite a bit to translate, so I'm breaking it up and just translating one character per post.

Starting off with Violet!

Right off the bat she writes a letter to Colette, complaining about the nicknames that they gave Vi. She acknowledges the other nicknames Colette gives her friends, like calling Pamela "Pam" and Nicky "Nic" (And Violet points out that it's a bit excessive, since Nicky's already an abbreviated name). Violet then addresses the nicknames that Colette gave her: "Vivi" and "Princess". She hates these nicknames with a burning passion.

In fact, Violet is being so incredibly petty about it that she comes up with a couple of amazing nicknames for Colette to get back at her. My favorites include:

"Collante": Sticky

"Cocotte": Casserole

"Colique": Colic (I had to look this one up to understand the joke; Colic is frequent, prolonged and intense crying or fussiness in a healthy infant. Violet's basically using a fancy term for cry-baby.)

These jokes wouldn't have worked as well in the English version, but they're hilarious in French.

Then she writes a list of various things that annoy her, like loud music (dangit pamela), nicknames (looking at you colette), people who talk while she's trying to study, etc., etc.

However, the next letter Violet writes is to her parents, in which she mentions that she has some new friends! She's like: "Hey Dad, I know I'm terribly shy and introverted and most people view me as a dismissive, short-tempered person, but I have friends now! Even I'm surprised by this development!"

Honestly, it's very sweet to see how much happier Violet is after properly getting to know and become friends with the other Thea Sisters. Despite all of their differences, Violet has grown to appreciate their company and uniqueness. She ends off her letter with a hopeful little note:

"P.S: Raxford (Mouseford in other translations) has an amphitheatre where we can give concerts. Wouldn't it be great if we could organize one and have you come?"

All in all, very cute extended scenes :)

I’ve been rebuilding Starlight Boulevard in Del Sol Valley.  Violet was the perfect Sim to try out all the Get Famous stuff. There’s so much to do! 

Naturally, Violet is now a vlogger. She's set up the spare room in her condo with all her video equipment so she could simtube about games, fashion tips and occasional celebrity gossip.

Me: I wanna make a demo for possible SuperSisters E Edition illustrations, maybe I can start with something tame

Also me, dealing with a headache at 12AM: purpur angst

Spoilers (?) for SuperSisters Chapter 11 and 13!

They said ELECTRIFIED ropes, you do NOT tell me that and assume that I WON'T make full use of it >:[

And I wrote an early excerpt for Chapter 13 too, because of course I did :]

“Found it, sir!”

The world slowed down in Violet’s eyes as she watched the guard hold up the cracked brooch, his hand moving to pass it to Professor Rogers. She struggled against the guard that held her down, but it was no use. He was in an advantageous position, she had no way of creating leverage, and she was handcuffed.

Only when the brooch was in the professor’s hands was she pulled back up. “It’s broken! Not even I can use it now!” She insisted, grasping desperately to some delusional fantasy that he’d somehow find it useless and hand it back to her.

That fantasy could only be shattered. “Nothing I can’t handle,” the professor replied coldly. “Let’s go.”

Violet felt all the air in her lungs leave her right then and there.

But imagine with me for a second
