This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)
I've made my own SKU sims on sims 2 and sent them to university. Already, Anthy has turned everything she's cooked into a singed inedible mess and almost burned down the kitchen in one incidence. Also, Shiori has spent too long being a seductive bastard and sleeping around rather than studying, and is on academic probation. Utena spends every last second working out and desperately wants to throw a sports party.
I'll put pictures up when I figure out how.

Is it okay to post SKU Sims from Sims games other than the main ones?

I made some some SKU sims for my sims 3 game! Thought I'd share a few pictures. I have loads more but I can't find where in my files they're saved to, so these are the ones I uploaded to my page on the sims website.
Utena, watch where you're waving that sword!
Wakaba, model of maturity.
I was playing as Mikage's family and bumped into Shiori and Juri in town-- and I found out they'd gotten together in a relationship of their own accord!
I gave Saionji no sense of humour, so he tends to bore people to death.
Mikage being creepy with Mamiya.
Since they kept flirting, I thought I'd get them together.
And then this happened. Mamiya is evidently quite the stud.
Still not sure if this is cute or creepy.
Akio and Utena having a personality clash because he's evil and she's good. Evidently my Utena is a lot more perceptive than the real one.
Akio up to his normal buisness.

I'm not surprised that Akio and Kozue seems to be getting along.

What a twist. I almost expected it to be the other way around. Sims are funny that way.

I LOL'd!

Aye aye captain!
The reason Akio and Anthy are living in such a swish house is because I had Akio marry into a rich family, and then I drowned them in the swimming pool.
They were so nonchalant about it!
Later Anthy joined a protest about... clowns?
Anthy peacefully watering her garden (which she aqquired by murdering the sims who owned it, naturally.)
Akio met Miki while he was getting ripped in the gym and they started boogieing. Not sure if Miki is frightened in this pic, or admiring Akio's chest hair.
Akio getting off with Juri's mother.
I do worry about his taste sometimes though!
Realistically, how Revolutionary Girl Utena should have ended.

Clearly, the sim cops in my city don't know what they're doing. *shakes head* He was going to prison for his criminal behaviour in that pic.
Unless... he's actually wormed his way into the police force and they're in league with him!

Realistically, that's how it's gonna be whenever a demi-god (one with strings on powerful adults even outside Ohtori ala Mr. Kaoru) gets into legal trouble . . . unless demi-goddess Anthy plots to get him knocked down a peg, that is.
Offline
Some more pics!
Akio decided he wanted collect the whole Kaoru twin collection.
Mikage got a taste of his own medicine when he caught himself on fire and died.
While Mikage was burning to death, Saionji felt sleepy and went home.
(I later reset the game though, because I didn't want him to die!)
Mikage and Mamiya decided to let Saionji babysit their lovechild. Saionji was less than amused.
Unfortunately, Mamiya caught Mikage sleeping with Miki and broke up with him. Let's hope they can make up!
I left Utena and Wakaba alone together and they got together! And Utena is a hopeless romantic so she acts like a total ditz!
Utena in her pink, pretty house.
Mamiya kindly requests that Kozue gets off his baby.
Tokiko managed to blow herself up at work.
Mamiya sleeps with his eyes open. He's probably keeping an eye out for Mikage.
Seriously. I don't even need to try and keep Mikage in canon cuz he does it for me.
His baby, the lovingly named 'Test Subject' grew up into a toddler. Lets hope he lives long enough to make it to an adult with all these house fires.
Offline
Kozue's feet going right through the baby must have had something to do with the "mother" being an imaginary human being.

OMGGGGGGG Saionji's chest hair!

"Mikage and Mamiya decided to let Saionji babysit their lovechild. Saionji was less than amused." Thank you for this, it is like RL cracked fic in pic form.

She's probably looking for that "Extra! Extra!".

If that pink hair on the gent suggests what I think it suggests, then I guess we now know how Utena comes to be an orphan.

Riri-kins that's awesome! Did that ability come with the supernatural expansion pack?

Akio x Utena just got a 100 percent more creepier.

No, the skin is just part of the latest update. You can make almost all colors of the rainbow now.
Since the Shadow Girls have the insane trait their favorite past times are talking to and choking themselves. This is A-ko in the outfit she wears to her acting gig. (I don't have her hair in the game.)
Offline
For some reason, that self-choking "shadow girl" shown reminds me of OldMaidTeacherAgainstUtena . . .
Offline
Ugh, Supernatural. I don't want to get the expansion before the price drop, but I'm looking forward to making an Anthy-Sim that's a witch. >_>
Offline
I have the supernatural expansion pack. It's awesome I have a witch Anthy, a fairy Utena, and Dios ghost household right now. Well worth the price even if I'm poor and should have saved that for my crazy tight budget. Yay for impulsive shopping?

This thread made me want to break out my wrench and bang my Sims 3 into moderately working order, and then I realized: I've got another Sims game. Sims Medieval. HELL YES.
I don't know how much the characters will look like themselves, as I don't know if it's even possible to create custom hairstyles and clothing, but I'll give it a shot. And the professions. Oh, the professions.
See, in Sims Medieval, you get ten Hero Sims to a kingdom. And each has a different profession: monarch, knight, spy, healer, witch/wizard, blacksmith, bard, merchant, Jacoban priest, and Peteran priest. The Jacobans are fire and brimstony, with a tendency towards being high church-y (and, when I'm at the wheel, often modeled after Claude Frollo) while the Peterans are more laid-back and monkish. Clearly, not all the characters are going to fit in this scenario. I can make over some random townspeople if they look like they're acting like anyone who's left out, or try, anyways, but I'll have no control over them, and I probably won't make the effort unless someone really wants to see, say, Tokiko get thrown in with the pit monster.
But, not really wanting to play favorites (well, yes, I do, but let's pretend otherwise) I'm going by importance in the series, so that means: Utena, Akio, Anthy, Touga, Saonji, Miki, Juri, and Nanami, plus two of the following: Shiori, Kozue, Ruka, Mikage, and Wakaba. It'll take a while to get to that, but what's more, everyone needs a profession. There's really no question that Akio is the monarch, Utena is the knight, Anthy is the witch, Miki is the bard, and Touga is the spy, (it makes more sense if you know the game) but after that, I could do with some suggestion. I'm thinking Juri as merchant and Saonji as Jacoban (laid-back he's not, but self-denying, certainly) or Blacksmith, which would leave Nanami and two others and Healer, Peteren and either Blacksmith or Jacoban. I know it sounds like an absolute clusterfuck, but it's pretty straightforward if you chart it out.
However, in addition to professions, there's traits! Each hero sim gets two traits and a Fatal Flaw. I'm totally open to suggestions as to who gets what. And, looking over the flaws, this is gonna be hilarious.
Whelp, time to go make some pictures of Akio being a dorky mullet king, since that's apparently all my brain's good for at the moment.
Edit: I've just started figuring out how I could rip, tear, duplicate & twist existing systems into a dueling system mod for Sim 3. Take the sword fighting from Sims Medieval, apply it to chess ranks, create a new hidden skill enhanced by physical activity, social interactions, and maybe some other things, throw in a relationship barrier for pulling swords out of people... I mean, don't get your hopes up. I'm still working on pretty simple loops and really basic GUI exclusively in Python, (I don't even know what language Sims is coded in) but... well, now I have a goal. And some day, awesomeness may happen.

And now, I bring you...
The Adventures of Dorky Mullet King!
Yeah, I know, the mullet is not sufficiently fabulous. What Sims Medieval makes up for in epic facial hair, (they have Gimli beards!) it lacks in fabulous mullets. Ah, well. I did the best I could. There's longer hair, but none of it looks right from the front.
His personality is Evil and Eloquent, and his fatal flaw is Hubris. I went back and forth about what traits to give him, but I figured, this is kind of the practice run where I just screw around with everything. I'm not gonna stress over trying to pick the traits that cover the widest array of interpretations of the characters just yet. No, I can do that when there's Legendary traits on the line...
And dorky? Akio? Perish the thought! But this is Maxis, and Lord Akio (it calls him that! It really does!) spent his first few days railroaded by the tutorial into gathering sticks in the forest and a pile of rocks from a cave in the hopes that Master Builder Guy could use them to build more buildings. 'Cause right now, his kingdom is a castle, and nothing else, and it doesn't even have a real dining hall. And he's flat broke, thanks to his expensive taste in furniture.
But his time wasn't completely wasted!
You see that shiny-skinned lady? The one who looks like she's been doused in oil? Get used to that effect, 'case Medieval's got kind of a problem with that.
But yes, Akio got right down to business.
... giving Random Lady a Touga rose.
And, you know, business business.
Fun fact: there are no condoms in Sims Medieval. Lets see how many illegitimate children Akio can rack up, shall we?
And I realized that he'd accidentally proposed to this chick or something, so I gave her slightly green hair.
Although most likely, I'll just find a way to break it off.
Sims Medieval has levels, and right now, Akio's at Level Fail.
So this is what he looks like with a sword. Once I got rid of that pesky armor, of course. I foresee a lot of fights without armor, and not just for the spy, who does that usually.
And, what I'm sure you've all been waiting for...
Fanservice!
Horribly pixelated fanservice.
Aside from that, Akio got a new sword:
And sharpened the heck out of it. Evilly.
And he seduced some bard guy.
It was part of the railroad quest. He coulda just given the guy a rose, but really? Why stop there?
And lastly:
I spent at least twice as long on her as I did on Akio, and she didn't come out half as good. And then I took the picture from the worst possible angle. I'm pretty happy with the dress and the hair, but I pride myself on the quality of my Sims faces, and this one did not come out well at all.
Her personality traits are Solitary and Earthy, and her fatal flaw is Insecure. Which, according to guides and whatnot, isn't a terribly difficult flaw. Except that it has some... fun effects when stacked up next to Solitary.
Next time: Akio advances to Level Slightly Less Fail, Anthy is a witch, and we meet the next Hero. Probably Utena or Miki.
