To absorb a Sim’s emotions in The Sims 4 and replenish this Need for fairy Sims, players have to interact with a Sim while controlling a fairy Sim, select the Fairy social menu, and then pick the Absorb Emotion option. This option will be unavailable for Sims who don’t have strong enough moodlets at the time, but if players are in a lot with heavy traffic, they shouldn’t have problems finding a Sim with emotions to absorb.

If a fairy absorbs too many powerful emotions, it can lead to Death by Emotional Overload.
