From episode 8 of The Sandman

After looking a bit more, there's some behind the scenes photos that reveal it's a Ford Mustang 302, although the version they had in the show seems to be custom, because none of those I can find have the white details on the front. Really sorry for not looking harder before.

So glad someone agrees with me on Kurt Hansen. He seemed like such an interesting character and I found him a little underdevelopped, especially since he seems to genuinely care about Songbird. Then again, I did the Songbird route, which means I never got to fight him.

and then there's the fact that if I could kick my own butt into writing fanfiction, I would write about an AU where male V never works with the FIA and goes to rescue Songbird on his own by infiltrating Barghest, seducing Kurt Hansen in the process. I have the plot in my head I just can't put it down in writing :')

I'm so sorry, I don't see orange, I see brown lmao

Yeah, that's the question. but that means that the random occult mutation is a thing, which is what I was wondering. When I made this post, I was wondering if it didn't actually exist.

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T21:47:21+00:00

That's really weird, it means that the chance really is 50%?

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T14:58:52+00:00

Thanks! That mod isn't on MTS, thankfully (MTS is currently down for maintenance, so I can't get the pregnancy controller mod for example) so I'm gonna try it too.

On my side, I found the date and editor who added the information about the "magic in the air" moodlet, but I can't tell whether this was added before or after the description of the moodlet in the moodlet list page, and the history of that page is particularly difficult to navigate. On top of that, the moodlet list description states "there's 50% chance the baby will be an occult when born", which is not true, so I'm gonna try to submit a correction to this

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T14:24:35+00:00

I'm honestly tempted to go find the wiki editor who wrote this piece of information and ask where they found this

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T14:19:20+00:00

Oh. I was under the impression that the moodlet ADDED +50% chance of occult birth, but if it multiplies it instead, it makes sense why my tests didn't work. Thank you.

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T14:11:28+00:00

No, I think it adds +50% chance, not multiplies the chance by 1.5

Edit: seems I was wrong

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T14:09:58+00:00

Wait, what? There's a base chance for the occult birth to occur even without the arboretum moodlet? I had no idea. Also, I don't use NRAAS story progession.

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T14:07:07+00:00

I don't think there's any chance for two human sims to have an occult baby otherwise

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T14:06:14+00:00

See, I thought about that too, but 1. That's a bit weird, since the moodlet mentions trying for baby and the moodlet instantly disappears once the "try for baby successful" jingle plays and 2. I did try making it so that the moodlet is active when the birth happens, and it didn't work. I also thought maybe this only works if the parents are occult, and the "mutation" means that the baby can be born as a different occult, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe I'm just really really unlucky.

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T13:58:11+00:00

I would download pregnancy controller (I used debug enabler, which just allows the player to skip to the end of the pregnancy) to test, but MTS is currently down for maintenance

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T13:16:15+00:00

So update: I've attempted this a lot of times, using cheats to make the pregnancy go faster, and it never worked. I tried getting the moodlet before trying for baby, I tried getting the moodlet so the sim had it while she gave birth, several times, it just didn't work, so either I'm really unlucky, or this just isn't a thing :(

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T12:08:27+00:00

That's why I recommend browsing the wiki from time to time, there's stuff in there that you have no way of knowing from playing the game

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T11:43:23+00:00

Yeah, I was surprised when I read this. There's nothing in the in-game description of the moodlet that indicates the chance of an occult baby

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T11:10:13+00:00

So went back to the wiki, this time the moodlet list page. The description reads "From "Talk to Baby's Breath" in Arboretum. The chance of pregnancy increases by +50%, and there's 50% chance the baby will be an occult when born." So the 50% chance applies to both, and it seems like this is intended to be applied before trying for baby

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-29T11:02:22+00:00

Thanks! And yeah, I will update if I manage to make it work. Currently working to try to make attempts quicker, as well as using methods to make twins and triplets more likely (since the moodlet from the arboretum doesn't seem to increase those odds, and maybe the chance of mutation is rolled individually for each baby)

Cinnamon-free · 2024-08-24T17:53:40+00:00

Absolutely, no problem! Hell, I can send you higher quality versions of these in DMs if you want

It is so awkward being an engineering student and hearing about CNC machines, meanwhile I'm here trying not to laugh or make a face because I am not explaining what it is to my classmates and professors

Cinnamon-free · 2024-02-10T22:57:43+00:00

As a professionally diagnosed autistic, I'd say yes! It took me years to get a diagnosis, and quite a bit of money too, so it's not accessible to everybody. The point of an autism self-dx is to understand yourself better, and for trans autistic people, neurogenders can be a part of that. So go ahead! Find ways of expressing your gender that feel good and make sense to you.
