To Download Or Not To Download

crossover_chick-D: That is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of pure Maxis content, or to take arms against a sea of blandness, and by opposing, brighten it?-
Not your best work, I have to say.
-D: My favorite author is Jules Verne, not Shakespeare.-
-M: What were you thinking of downloading?-
Some new foods and a breastfeeding hack.
-J: . . . Breastfeeding?-
Yup -- apparently it was something that was going to be put in OfB, but it was removed as an actual option. The hack restores the pie-menuness of it.
-M2: Sims breastfeeding. I wonder if they bother to take off their clothes, or if it's like when a Sim goes to the bathroom.-
I think it's the bathroom thing. Now, granted, I've never minded Sims using bottles, but this might be interesting to mix it up a little. Plus, I was thinking -- the FurKin might be good candidates to go au natural.
-VD: Everything's about your furry Sims these days.-
-DW: *beam* Isn't it wonderful?-
Glad one of you is enjoying this. And yes, I am a tad obsessed with the FurKin Sims. They're why I was considering downloading some new foods. I was looking for more meat dishes for them.
-OD: Did you find anyway?-
A few -- someone unlocked the downtown foods for home use, and I found some steaks and beef. I'm just a little leery. I don't want to download a bunch of stuff unless I have to.
-D: I suppose that's smart. But why do you want more meat dishes? I understand that all your furry Sims are based on primarily carnivorous species, but don't they get enough to eat from the main menu?-
I suppose. I just want some variety.
-VD2: *curious* Do you think they make blood for vampires? It seems odd that the ones in your Sims can subsist off of regular food.-
Actually, yes, I found a boiled blood dish, and I'm sure others have been made. I know, it is weird to see Vampire Sims eating. At least you can give them Instant Meals to kind of retain the illusion.
-TD: Speaking of unusual Sims, have you come up with any basic rules for the furry ones you created? Perhaps to explain the fact that they have four sets of ears apiece? Not that having extra ears would be all that bad. . . .-
Heh, well, I pretend that the regular Sim ears are just vestigal organs the good Dr. Moreau couldn't completely shrink away. And I want them to subsist primarily on meat-based dishes -- though I'll allow stuff like cereal and gelatin just so they don't go hungry at breakfast. Haven't come up with anything else yet - then again, do I really need to?
-TD: I guess not, but it would have been interesting.-
You're the Mad Scientist, you make up rules for them.
-TD: Can't, busy with the plot bunnies. Our attempts to add flavors has hit a bit of a snag.-
. . . I'm fearful.
-DW: Don't worry, nothing's exploded this time.-
-VD2: TeenDoc's just very new at genetic engineering, and it doesn't help that he insists on using the steampunk computer.-
Bad flavors?
-VD: He made one that tasted like burnt plastic.-
-DW: And another that tasted like chlorine.-
Bernie Bott's Every Flavor Plot Bunnies!
-VD: Thank you for that entirely useless remark. Why don't you work on your fan fiction?-
I believe I'm reaching an end on my new chapter of "An Extremely Crowded Mind."
-OD: Oh, good. Not quite as good as fanart, but still good.-
Don't worry, I'll be working on issue two of the BTTF Puppet Pals soon.
-D: What about the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
backtothefanfic challenge fic? We thought for sure that you'd adore a Murphy's Law challenge.-
I'm not sure who to torture -- you or Marty. I have a nice evil day worked out, but I can't decide who the main character should be.
-M: You're better at Doc angst.-
