La Llorona, The Weeping Woman

La Llorona, The Weeping Woman

Aiiii aiiii aiiii She is crying for her dead children the lover gone, the lover not yet come: Her grito (cry) splinters the night.

- Gloria Anzaldua, “My Black Angelos,” Borderlands/La Frontera

You can read the legend of La Llorona in this post of mine.

“You know, in the old days, if a witch betrayed her coven, they would kill her.”  - Nancy Downs, The Craft

Here is Nancy Downs, my witch for 31 Days of Halloween by @thosefuckingsims.

Whoa, that must be quite a story that Yoshi is telling!  I love how expressive the sims’ reactions are in this game - that horrified one never stops amusing me.

Shake, shake, shake, Señora, shake your body line!

Yoshi & Matilde

Meet Yoshi Nakamura and Matilde Barton, my sims for @jenba‘s population project.  Yoshi and Matilde first met as kids when they moved next door to each other.  They were best friends until Yoshi’s family moved away when they were in high school.  By happy chance they attended the same university, fell in love, and realized that they never wanted to part again.  These newlyweds are excited to start their lives together in Newlyn Hills - they bought a little house they love (the Dunford starter) and opened a bakery and tea shop.  

Info under the cut...

Yoshi & Matilde will be in @jenba‘s Newlyn Hills world save which will be released sometime next month.  They are also available for download in the Gallery under my Origin ID vicarious-sims4.

TOU:  Feel free to use my sims as base sims or change them however you want, but please don’t claim them as your own.  I’d love it if you tagged me (#vicarious-sims) if you use my sims because it would be fun to see them in your game.

I am in love with the stunningly beautiful Día de los Muertos content in the latest patch.  Words can’t express how wonderful it feels to see my culture and traditions represented and appreciated by EA and the sims community!
