Guys, look what I got from @frauleiiin!!! 😍 Thank you so much for this wonderful surprise, I love how calm and soothing they look together, it really warms my heart 😌

Really hoping that's how the Mandalorian arch will end for my Commander :D

[zarilia]

So I got to the first date night with Theron on another char and we got photobombed! There was a guy riding around the whole location on a purple vulptilla. I didn't start recording from the beginning, so you only get the glimpses of what it was. Funny enough the frolicking vulptilla seems to bother Theron as much as the incoming messages.

Please don't mind my BH basic outfit. I don't love my children equally and it shows. In fact they are all exploited to get the Sith warrior the life she deserves :]

Welcome to part two of Copero Villa tour! This is part one in case you missed it.

Let's take a look at the East Wing - a sunny terrace to enjoy the sea view, followed by another terrace with recliners:

The suite is actually a bathroom refresher. As you can see, the decorator got creative with ways to mimic the expected appliances:

To reach the upper parts of East wing we're passing the Zakuul-themed corridor with one lost knight:

This way we enter a room which obviously awaits Rass (Theron is waiting outside and looking forward to his arrival so he can finally get changed):

The east side gazebo is actually just a fountain for now, the houselord didn't see a point to decorate past Rass' room (still wondering why...)

Ok, now let's go back downstairs to see the Underground Docs. This will come as a surprise to some because the style is completely different from the rest of the villa. The customer decided to go fully-secret-base. A jetpack charging station (again guess for whom), a droid upgrade spot, even a small medbay. And ALL the armaments, like, this place will not go down anytime soon.

Actually let's take the *two* water speeders to see the surroundings. They are totally eco-friendly, @kai-zykken assured me of that personally.

The small beach to the east is just a camping site if one ever grows tired of the fancy interiors. Lizards are definitely down for this one!

Our last stop is the cave beach. The idea was to keep it mostly natural, only plants, boulders, and a fountain, save a small spot by the water for sitting in the shade (I genuinely prefer this umbrella to season 6, which I don't have yet btw) before taking a dip in the sea or the hot springs. The turtles sure enjoy it!

And we'll be on our way back the landing pad... Oof, it seems the invasive Lambros from Ruhnuk are taking over the place!

That's it, thank you for taking the tour, hope you had fun and maybe even got some inspiration! If you have any questions about decorations, feel free to ask below the post.

--------

Getting to this point certainly cost a substantial amount of credits, but I don't keep track. I've spent a lot of time on GTN trying to find some bargains and yes, it's worth to wait a few days sometimes. I will not be aiming at 100% completion of the villa as this would leave the place too cluttered, and it's too beautiful too become a dump. OMG some Copero Villas I've seen on the public listing were quite literally a garbage lot, it pains me so much! Like, you can shit all over the place in Dromund Kaas (I actually like this SH) or Rishi (please mind Speedy!), not Copero!

My only regret is there's no scale or z-axis slider for the decorations. And the limitations of placeholder sizes.... some items classified as large could obviously fit a smaller hook.

[zarilia]

5... more... tokens... to fully unlock Copero (the outdoor terrace). And then some more to get the decorations from season 6. For now let me give you a tour!

The landing pad with the obligatory Mandalorian shuttle, can you guess who came to visit?

Let's go upstairs to the main entrance, the Alliance Commander baked a pie, please help yourselves!

What you'll see may not seem like a dark lord's estate at all. It is a mix of classy luxurious interiors inspired by Onderon, Alderaan, Voss, not too opulent, with lots of plants. Don't forget to pet the Kell drake, houselord's favourite, waiting by the mailbox:

Come check the East and West Wing Guest Rooms. Both are studies of Light and Dark Sides. More light probably, too many gloomy details wouldn't match the Copero style. Imperial Reclamation Service makes sure every artifact is carefully handled:

Moving on to the West Wing Suite we have a small get together area where you can relax with a drink of your choice, served by 2V-R8:

Next up is a dining terrace and yet another pie for you to try. Leading to a more private part (so proud of the use of vine-columns):

And here's the master bedroom itself, very demure, very mindful. Fancy a round of dejarik?

Let's go for the higher levels of the Western Wing, this is a Voss-themed guest room:

Leading further up to a meditation spot. Actually it's very hard to meditate with such a view...

Oh shoot, we're out of image space, see you in the next post for the East Wing and surrounding...

[zarilia]

Rishi stronghold - rust and splinters, boring, pirates meh, eww a built-in pvp arena, who needs a beach like that when you have Copero, wait what's that? 👀

[zarilia]

[Republic] Anything for you Jonas...

[Empire] Who is this droid anyway? So you want me to hunt down some probes on Hoth? Empire, you gotta do better than this! It's all about motivation!

Sims 4: Clone face overlays and Tup's hair

These been stuck in my WIP folder for too long! Not planning to create any other stuff from TCW really (well, maybe Plo Koon... but shhhh, I haven't even started yet), just adding some details to the wonderful CC we already got from the very talented creators mentioned below.

Tup's Hair - maxis match colours, BG compatible, custom icon

Clone face overlays - found under left lip mole, 7 clone face overlays featuring the distinctive nasal bridge, square chin, eye and forehead wrinkles and mouth crease variations to easily customise the tattoos and other CC like eyebags or other facial details, BG compatible, custom icons

CC used in screenshots: - tattoos & scars by @ck-sims - Fives' goatee by @squidsponge - clone armor & standard clone haircut by Kynd - eyebags by @tamo-sim - eyes by @nords-sims

Clone sims based on Ritpit01's Boba Fett

Sorry, I can't save the galaxy right now, I'm...

And last but not least...

[zarilia]

💞 Happy Valentine's Day - SWTOR edition! 💞

Cards featuring Rass Ordo and my Alliance Commander. Yes, they have one dirty joke and never grow tired of it!

[zarilia]

👏 Jekiah 👏 Ordo 👏 appreciation 👏 post 👏

The more I think about Jekiah, the more I appreciate him and might actually promote him to be my comfort character. I guess we are quite alike doing all the hard work, keeping the business going, being rewarded only with even more assignments, kept in the dark when it comes to the future plans. Let's hope he doesn't burn out like I did.

There were wrinkles in his "materials" folder, so I felt like adding them, he looks so much cooler.

rass ordo 🤝theron shan

bisexual sassy sweet brown-eyed brunette men who are charming and dorky and awkward but also lethally trained

[zarilia]

Just had exactly the same thought yesterday! There will be consequences once I open the game today 🤭

[zarilia]

I'm waiting for Rass to join as a regular companion - I mean why else would he have likes/dislikes mentioned in his profile... I've seen he has no voice lines recorded for the upcoming content yet (but he's definitely included, hope that's not a spoiler 🤓) and considering the voice actors strike (that I fully support) it will take some time before we can see him again.

So in the meantime I convinced Theron to do some cosplay, hope he and Rass can forgive me later🫠🫠🫠 The Commander explaining that this means nothing and is only temporary:

They share body type, voices are somewhat similar, they are both dorks and would laugh at same jokes. Basically what's in OP's post ❤️. Funny I never romanced Theron, I need to fix that on another char.

For now Theron gets to wear Mandalorian Tracker's armor in unmistakenly distinct green and ride in the companion mount and I need to max him to 50....

Glad I kept him alive after Umbara as a sith warrior who was not that forgiving in the past (I killed Koth, Senya and Arcann, and dark side Jaesa lately).

Bonus: you look... different, Theron...

Finally I got my turtle a friend straight from Manaan <3 You guys talk to your pets?

[zarilia]

Can't decide if I'm more in love with them or Copero. I can spend hours decorating and then removing everything because it already looks great without any furniture or utilities.

I've planned vacation outfits for my pookies, so they can fully enjoy their time off.

Bonus - pet turtle. He will get a cerulean friend once I grind Manaan rep to max...

[zarilia]

Did I just farm Copero villa for this one thought of them sitting on the terrace? Maybe...

[zarilia]

Happy New Year everyone! Let's start with best possible ending of the last year - my pookies, my babies, I can't...! I LOVE THEM 🥹😭🥹😭🥹😭

Commission by wonderful @kelstares - can't thank you enough <3 This piece did THINGS to me. I'm smitten by this work daily, you can't even imagine. And I'm still unable to tell the time or do anything on my phone having this set as wallpaper 🥵

Never thought it will come to this level of brainrot, but I even wrote a fic 🫣 inspired by this hug. For anyone interested - Mandalorian Support

[zarilia]

Why yes, of course I've dumped Quinn for the Mando dork! Just look at him smile, he could melt icebergs...

I have so few screen caps of Rass 😭 You will get them all! 🤓

Rass full of Sass, Rass the Ass or Rasscal? He's bold in battle, less so when it comes to one-on-one situations. Known for dry humour, yet he will never make fun of you other than spaceship crashing references. He's constantly concerned about the Commander's wellbeing and safety and bonus points for healthy brother bond with Jekiah. So he's witty, fun and caring and loves dogs - just can't say 'no' to the Mando Boy.

When you're about to say goodbye to your bae, but accidentally bump into your teacher 😅 The complete lack of logical explanation about going on Ord Mantell given by this absolute no-one still makes my teeth grind. Who are you and why should the Alliance Commander even listen?

*** general swtor romance rant below ***

Having so many companions obviously leads to some of them being neglected. Not only by the player but by the writers as well. We've seen a small pack brought back into spotlight in KOTFE/ KOTET and Kira/Scourge later on which was satisfying but also raised our hopes for other popular companions, especially love interests. A shame only Lana/Theron still get an update afterwards and are present all missions along. And if they are not romanced, well, the game seems to be loosing an important part of the story. Even after reuniting with LI, there are no interactions, not even any new voice line or short comment when entering new locations. You can't expect players to remain bound to the very first LI, unless they are creative enough to cover the story in between (I'm not, it's been 10 years with no action). Perhaps the writers wanted us to move on based on game budget limitations (voice acting and all)? But they could add some letters at the very least, that doesn't cost much, eh?
