I'd say it's not often I self-promote... But when I first started publishing on AO3, I took myself a little too seriously... I'm not finding all those posts to delete them, just know they're there...
Despite how many Sims fans there are, there are fewer than 2000 fanfics for it, so I've done a little work to make that number a touch bigger and wanted to share some of the projects I've been working on over the last few months.
Fics set in Strangetown are Green, and those set in Pleasantview are Red.
Stranger Still (Ongoing)
For two years, the Smith family has been missing, taken in a covert Division 47 operation that no one will speak about.
Long before their disappearance, Ophelia had been secretly hiding in the Meeting House, watching Ripp from the shadows as he and Tank slowly uncover how deeply they’re caught in their father's cover‑up. When a prank spirals out of control, and an unauthorised visit takes place, Buzz suspends Loki and Lazlo from the Science Department, leaving Loki furious and Lazlo adrift.
Ophelia finally steps out of hiding and is joined by Ripp and, eventually, Tank, determined to free the Smiths, especially Johnny. At the same time, Loki races to expose Dominic Newlow’s plan to seize control of Strangetown through manipulation and mind‑altering tech, only for Lazlo to be dragged back into Loki’s orbit by a dangerous twist.
When Newlow betrays Buzz as well, former colleagues collide, forced into an uneasy alliance to take revenge on Newlow and stop his takeover before Strangetown loses its freedom forever.
A Pleasant Rise and Fall (Complete - 21 Chapters - 45,962 words)
In the 1980s, Pleasantview's golden boy, Daniel, notices the ambitious Mary-Sue for the first time. After several unsuccessful encounters, Daniel realises he can't treat her the same way he's treated girls in the past.
Their awkward encounters turn into first love, then marriage, then a life built around raising very different twin daughters and meeting the unfair expectations they placed upon themselves. But as Mary-Sue's work becomes all-consuming and Daniel feels increasingly overlooked at work and home, old insecurities resurface. Daniel's internal struggle with feelings of neglect and desire for validation drives his actions, including the affair that threatens everything they built.
Meanwhile, Daniel’s sister Jennifer quietly falls for steady, dependable John Burb, their slow‑burn romance growing into the stable marriage Daniel wishes he still had.
Fault Lines (Ongoing)
We all think we know the story of Buzz and Lyla Grunt. How she walked out in the middle of the night, never to return. But how did they get there? How did the serious, grouchy General Buzz Grunt marry the outgoing, playful Lyla Vandermorgan? Where did things start going so wrong that one of the most kind-hearted, loving women you'll ever meet felt the need to walk out on her family? Through alternating perspectives, we explore the possibility that Buzz wasn't always the cold-hearted General we know him to be, perhaps even someone completely different.
Also, a cheeky shoutout to CapricornSims because they called Buzz "Eugene" first, and I frickin' love it! I can't stop using it. (I'll not tag you, though, because I've never once spoken to you and I'm shy.)
The Maid of Pleasantview (Complete - 12 Chapters - 35,585 words)
After living in SimCity with her brother for a short while, Kaylynn's back in Pleasantview, but things aren't exactly going to plan...
Unable to find any other jobs in town, Kaylynn started working for the local cleaning service as a maid until something better comes along, and her first couple of clients are certainly interesting, to say the least. Between the handsome Don Lothario and the famous Daniel Pleasant, Kaylynn's world is about to get turned upside down.
51 Road to Nowhere (Complete - One Shot - 7,130 words)
After receiving the news that his childhood home is due for demolition, Ripp Grunt returns home for the first time in years.
As he explores the now-abandoned house, he takes a trip down memory lane, seeing the ghosts from his past.

i was explaining certain vtm mechanics to my mom so that i could tell her about my campaign and when i got to true faith she rolled her eyes, but then i told her "your faith can be in anything! you just have to believe in it hard enough" and she goes
"Flat Earth."
a whole new world has opened up to me. i can give conspiracy theorists true faith. made up of nothing but delusion. this is the funniest fucking thing ever
quirky fourth wall breaking character but theyre just fucking. wrong about the medium theyre in. they keep making references to cinematic techniques and directorial styles and the other fourth wall breaking character is like "dumbass we're in a fucking comic book" and they are in a video game.
Introducing my reinterpretation of one of the most iconic Sims families: the Altos, with Nick, Vita and Holly. For this version, I wanted to maintain the essence of each character, but give them a more personal and refined touch, imagining how they would look in my own Sims 4 universe.
Nick Alto — The patriarch of the family, elegant, serious, and with that businessman air that makes him seem to have everything under control… although we know there's much more behind that expression than meets the eye.
Vita Alto — The true queen of the house. Sophisticated, powerful, and with a presence impossible to ignore. Vita is the type of Sim who enters a room and automatically becomes the center of attention.
Holly Alto — The daughter of the family, with a more natural beauty and a personality that contrasts with the intensity of her parents. I wanted to give her a fresher, more bohemian look, while maintaining that special air that makes her stand out within the family.
This is a UI mod that makes selection dialog wider and higher and fit more items.

Special thanks to @lordcrumps for making maxis and clean ui pics and counting pixels with me. It was his and @simnopke's idea to make this thing bigger
Some behind the scenes under the cut
Stage 1, breaking out of the tiny window
Stage 2, figuring out how to mod UI again
Stage 3, going big! But not quite there yet
Stage 4, "should I move it 1 more pixel to the left"

some of you weren’t around for the fan fiction dot net purge of 2002 (when they banned explicit content and mass-deleted thousands of fics) and the livejournal purge of 2007 (when they deleted hundreds of blogs, disproportionately targeting queer & kink content) and it shows

Hello! This is the third and last neighborhood of the BG Purist Hoods I'm going to release! Veronaville had many quirks I have not previously met in other neighborhoods that I had to study quite a lot to get right. It has been rather exhausting- but I have thankfully been helped by @lionwolficemagma, @cricket-sims and @f1shart, whom I give all my heart to. Thank you so, so much guys! This would've been so slow without your help. Lots of love.
General Overview
All ancestors are resurrectable and everyone is here: unless you pick the no townies version, you will have all the characters that come originally with the neighborhood.
No age has been modified (minus one exception), as I worked on memories more to make them line up with the Eaxis Canon better than before. All characters will have their default set of days remaining in their lifespan, unless you use a lifespan mod. I tried to be as purist as I could.
The Hood has never been initialized in-game and is compatible with any system (Windows, Linux, MacOS), game version or expansion pack (Legacy Collection as well). Scripted events work as well.
Reduced size on hard drive by deleting many useless things inside character files.
This took me so long to do, I might release a version with extras in another moment. Stay tuned, I might post updates on how it's going!
Update: It's out! Download below!
Let's get into it! As always, download at the end of the post!
UPDATED 17/07/2026
Changes
All junk flags have been cleared. Removed the dreaded family flags and ensured people who are actually family recognize each other. Also no relationships to Universal NPCs whatsoever.
Hidden relationships have been rectified and removed.
Everyone has been re-linked and missing data has been restored thanks to the recreations by carrit on ModTheSims.
Fitness flags have been cleared where they made no sense.
Fixed fitness bar being mismatched. Now no deceased person will have it maxed out!
All empty personalities have been filled. I based myself on the convention used for townies.
Blank Zodiac Signs have been restored.
The Power aspiration has been removed and substituded with the Aspirations corresponding to the Astrological Signs of the bearers.
Family Trees now respect the actual birth order of the Capp teens/Monty teens and Capp adults.
Olivia Monty's pregnancy has been fixed and the father linked is Claudio. She will give birth in around five Sim hours.
Patrizio and Isabella's pension has been changed to the one corresponding to level 10 Culinary Career, as they have been promoted nine times in total and reached that level. The career is also specified, instead of there being none.
Patrizio and Isabella now have how many days old they are restored.
Patrizio, Mercutio and Isabella have been given the right skills needed for their careers.
Bianca and Antonio's ages have been swapped, so now he has 23 days left and she has 18. I based myself on the Storytelling pictures. I pinky promise I changed ages only here, so every other member is still unreasonably young despite already having children. Why is left to player interpretation.
Many characters had extra faces inside their character file (record is Benedick with 38). I've removed the old, unused ones.
Broken and borked faces have been fixed, such as the ancestor ladies with sabertooth and Hal Capp. Thanks to Khaemwaset on ModTheSims.
Cordelia, Caliban and Consort no longer have that extra png that scarily pops up in SimPE instead of their current one.
Catalogue Description oddities have been fixed.
All memories that were missed were added and the ones in the wrong order were re-ordered.
Claudio Monty, Olivia Monty, Hero Monty, Caliban Capp, Cordelia Capp and Contessa Capp now have memories of their life.
Genetics have been fixed and restored where they were completely missing.
Family Bin Families now have the right amount of money.
Removed physical death tokens.
Ancestors no longer have memory of a deceased sim that doesn't exist.
Extras
All premades and dead premades are now babyfaced. Thanks a lot to @ash1c (I hope I mentioned the right account this time my bad bro) for keeping an eye and helping with the process <3
All sims have heterozygous genes where it was possible to give those to them.
Sims now have correct astrological signs.

A Note on Memories
The most tedious thing to do has been fixing all the memories given (or not) to playables. Everyone was missing almost everything and the few memories actually there were either in a very bad order or completely swapped with those of other characters. No remembering when other family members grew up, forgetting best friends, forgetting who's who...
The Summerdream Family was missing relationship flags and they had half of their memories swapped with each other (example: Oberon recalled becoming best friends with Puck, but that was actually Titania, and flags weren't even properly set despite all the requirements being there).
I have tried my best to be as neutral as possible, but some memory placement just had to be assumed as I had literally nothing to start from. I apologize and accept any suggestion on how to improve them.
