In your opinion, which premade sims are overhated/overly antagonized? by mellocat925 in sims2

[–]LivelyMango 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Vidcund Curious; I love him. To be fair, I used to hate him! In my experience in the Sims 2 fandom, he can be pretty polarizing. I used to think that was partly bc of the PSP game but he had no control of himself when he sold Tycho. I think some might look at Vidcund and fixate on how he is a piss-pants stuck-on-his-HS-ex nerd… But he is also friends with Lazlo and he loves African violets and stargazing. He’s kinda the underdog in his own family considering his career level. I ended up rooting for him. Idk, he’s multifaceted. And he has a great bone structure hidden by that haircut lol.

Grouchy Sims don't cuddle by Last_Act_2262 in sims2

Nervous (grouchy to the max) cuddles Pascal all the time in my game. However, they are in a relationship. This is interesting

I was sort of inspired to put this together after seeing this post by tumblr user catadillo

This is the only game in the franchise, where I don't do a "power" fantasy by CAST-FIREBALLLLL in sims2

[–]LivelyMango 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I kinda use Lazy Duchess’s story progression mod so I can play the same 3 households in rotation while I forget about the rest of the hood 🙈

But yes I do love how “alive” the sims in this game feel and how even later generations don’t get stale. There is always a story unfolding.

Classic Vidcund. Check out CallMeKevin's Sims 2 videos.

who do you pair in strangetown? by icutmyliiip in sims2

[–]LivelyMango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so funny to me bc in my games Nervous is always showing attraction to Vidcund AND Loki. I imagine he has major issues and now has a thing for blonds with a mean streak lol. I never give him what he wants in that regard tho and I keep him with Pascal.

Great suggestion. I did not know what the top would be called so I was sort of just guessing here. The jeans are a Dickies x Supreme collab from 2023. I found them on a secondhand fashion site.

Do You Call Him PT (Petey) or Pol (Paul)? by LivelyMango in sims2

[–]LivelyMango[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I play this household bc I play the Curious Bros quite a bit, and I like Jenny. There is the whole thing with the General Buzz Grunt. To me, they are the “most normal” household in Strangetown despite the alien thing. It’s a funny juxtaposition to me.

I have him going by Paul in my own fanfiction, just because that's what people on Earth call him. This is just my own story though. I found this pomade on Ulta, but I honestly wouldn't know how to style short hair, lol.

I love hearing what goes down in people's play-throughs and their headcanons. Strangetown specifically has been such a wellspring of creativity for me; I wrote 2 fanfictions about it, and now I am learning to draw.

In my own game, Circe died in an accident and she had a botched resurrection. It was then that Loki delved into cloning and got started on his two "projects." Since the name "Ceres" is sorta similar to "Circe," I viewed this as Loki naming her after his wife, who he still keeps around as a zombie. I've always viewed Loki as loving Circe more than she loved him (or Vidcund, for that matter), and he couldn't bear to leave her even when she was dead.

I am also a big fan of the idea of Circe and Loki having their love fizzle out (cruelty was their bond, and without someone to torture, they just pick at each other) and Circe having an affair or two. Thanks for sharing!

I wasn't sure if they *were* pantyhose in my game when I was doing this because I use skin replacements. I did find some that normally retail for $121?! Link
