#“Also you're running low on detergent”

[lilypadpanda]

We need more (read: any) fanfics about what Hiei was doing with his time while he was confined to Human World. Like, canonically we know he was sleeping in trees, but what about other stuff? What the hell was he doing all day?

“GOOD! NOW PUNCH HIS FACE!”

— when your baby and gojo, geto, nanami, toji, and sukuna get protective over you (f!reader)

a/n: I am alive!! as an apology here is a multi-character post 🙏 btw in toji's part, you're megumi's mom

GOJO SATORU:

two peas in a pod, twins, copies: these are all things people have called your husband and son.

honestly, they’re not wrong. your son has his father’s looks—satoru swears he has your nose and ears but anyway—and he carries the same protectiveness and love he holds for you, if not amplified.

you can’t count on one hand the amount of times the house has been turned upside down because of their fights for a cuddle session with you.

of course, you have always tried suggesting them simply sharing you, but these problem children would rather eat raw zucchini than ever share the cuddle time.

so while your son is barely six, you can still count on him to team up with satoru against anyone who wrongs you in anyway like what’s happening right now for example.

you’re out with your lovely family to buy some groceries, and since they both were whining about getting some sweets, you allowed them to go and snatch a couple from the next aisle.

on the other hand, you stayed to look for another type of detergent to clean the floor—especially since satoru got this new type of paint for s/n and it’s quite an endeavor to remove it with a regular detergent.

however, being in the cleaning supplies section never guaranteed the lack of filthy men who can’t take no for an answer. this one man approaches you, smug grin on his face as he leans on the wall, “what’s a pretty lady like you doing alone?”

“buying groceries like a normal person; now please leave me alone.”

he quickly frowns, “don’t be so stingy doll,” his hand extends towards your arm, “I can show you a good time; I promise—“

the man is swiftly smacked with an egg on his face, and he is left with the egg dripping down his face, “what’s your wrong with your kid, man?!” he yells at the person behind you.

he then grumbles, “ruined a potential good night.”

“my kid was absolutely right in what he did,” you hear satoru’s voice. you then feel a hand on your shoulder, and you’re pulled into a chest you’re all too familiar with, “’toru—“

your husband shoots a small smile your way, pressing a quick kiss to your lips, before looking at his son, “that last throw was very good, s/n! throw another one but just below his stomach."

a cheshire cat-like grin is plastered on your husband’s face as s/n prepares to launch another egg at the man.

there is a very evident scowl on your son’s face as he yells, “don’t you ever bother mama again, you stinky bum crumb!”

the man gasps and tries to make a run for it, but your son wouldn’t be the son of gojo satoru if he doesn’t manage to land the hit exactly where he wants.

the man quickly crumbles to the ground screaming and alerting literally everyone in the store.

so satoru picks both you and s/n and makes a run for it.

you hold tightly onto him, “wait, ‘toru, the groceries!”

“we can always order! saving my princess and son is more important!”

your son grumbles, “but I want to hit the rude man!”

“me too, champ, but—“ satoru sweat-drops and glances behind him, “I doubt the angry security guards would like that!”

GETO SUGURU:

your twin girls are one of the sassiest to exist.

in a way, they take after their father who is also pretty sassy but very low-key.

the sass of all three combined is terrible to be the victim of. luckily for you, they don’t dare direct their triple ray towards you, especially—in any argument—at least one will try to win you over.

if it’s suguru trying to stay on your good side, then he is hugging you from behind, pressing feather-like kisses on your shoulder and whispering about how sweet you are. if it’s the girls, then they cling to your legs and keep yelling about how much they love you.

so it is safe to say that you have a small squad to protect you from any potential “danger”.

“oh my, dear shouldn’t you focus on refining yourself a bit more?” you hear a woman say beside you.

you turn towards her, offended, “excuse me?”

“I mean,” her eyes scan you, disapprovingly, “you look average at best, and with that you won’t be able to find yourself a husband, let alone have children.”

you’re still processing her audacity as she continues, “but then again, it’s probably for the better that you don’t have children; you can barely take care of yourself.”

“can I help you?” your husband says as he approaches the woman.

she smiles condescendingly before chuckling, “I was simply telling this lady to take care of herself more; she hardly looks presentable.”

geto’s smiles tenses up as he is about to give the woman a calm peace of his mind, but his daughters beat him to it.

your older twin stands in front of the woman, scanning her with pure disgust in her eyes.

she grimaces and voices out her thoughts, “you are like a crunchy lizard.”

the woman gasps, “how dare you—!”

you cut off the woman, curious about your daughter’s conclusion, “why a crunchy lizard, sweetheart?”

your daughter looks at you with a small frown, shaking her head, “a crunchy lizard is an ugly sad lizard.”

a snort escapes your husband, and you’re barely able to contain your smile.

your other daughter follows up, looking at her twin sister, “the lady looks like that one green thingy we saw yesterday,” she taps her little foot, trying to remember and beams at the woman, “shrek! you look like shrek!”

then they both glare at her, frowning, “you’re a monkey!”

your husband doesn’t let it go as he deals the final—subtle—blow, “come on now girls; we shouldn’t bully the lady with the mcdonald’s like hairline anymore.”

it seems like the woman can’t take it anymore as she starts sobbing and running to the hills.

a moment of silence is shared across the four of you, before you carry both of your girls in your arms and start tickling them, “I don’t know whether to be proud of you or scold you, little evil girls!”

they squeal, trying to escape your hold and calling for their father.

geto chuckles and wraps his arms around the three of you, “let them have it for tonight, y/n,” he ruffles their hair, “they were brave and defended their mom, after all.”

“yeah, papa is right!”

“yes mama, please!”

you pout then smirk at geto, “well I don’t mind, and since papa is also very proud of you girls, he will buy any toy that you guys want today!”

the color drains from your husband’s face, and he watches motionlessly as his girls latch onto him, screaming about the toys they want.

you giggle at his expression and blow him a kiss. he reluctantly blows you one back, while the girls excitedly pull him towards the toy store.

NANAMI KENTO:

you and your husband were blessed with the sweetest girl as your daughter, and she was just recently joined by another sweet girl.

you can never forget the happiness on your daughter’s face when she saw her baby sister.

it also seems that no matter how many times you give birth, your husband can’t help but get emotional when he holds your baby. his hands are forever delicate as he cradles her to his chest.

you remember what he said during the birth of your first daughter.

“I feel like a piece of heaven has been plucked and placed in my arms.”

the way he always goes soft for the three of you is honestly adorable.

today, you were going on an outing with your—now 6 months old—baby and your older daughter who is almost six.

your husband never brags about his muscular form, but he never misses a chance to carry the baby or the baby supplies.

you have offered to at least carry the bag, but he always refuses, stating that ‘you already carried the baby for nine entire months in your belly; this is the least I can do.’

so yeah, sometimes you wish to smooch your husband till forever, but that’s not the point.

you’re walking hand in hand with your daughter as she sings her favorite song. you hear someone click their tongue, so you look to the side and lock eyes with an old lady. she takes the opportunity and approaches you.

“you should be ashamed of yourself!” she yells pointing at you, “your husband shouldn’t be carrying the baby supplies nor the baby itself for the matter,” she scowls, “that’s your job!”

“with all due respect ma’am, but that isn’t her job, and taking care of the baby should be something we are both responsible for.”

“yeah!” your daughter huffs, “and don’t take out your sad life on my mama!”

your eyes widen as you stare at your daughter.

on the other side, your husband is just as speechless. your daughter pays no one any mind as she continues, “mama works hard every day! you wouldn’t know that! you immature nugget!”

nanami frowns lightly, “d/n, that’s not nice—“

and for the cherry on top, your baby daughter throws the bottle cap she was playing with at the old lady, and frowns at her.

she starts babbling some nonsense that you're pretty sure are curse words in baby language.

having had enough, the old lady huffs, “the utter disrespect,” and starts walking away.

the rest of the spectators’ eyes follow her till she is out of sight. finally then, people start minding their own business, and you and your little family are left to the aftermath.

you giggle, “that was funny.”

“really?!” your daughter beams.

nanami cuts her off, “no,” he then looks at you with a small frown, a sigh escaping his lips, “y/n don’t encourage them—“

your baby daughter screams happily when she sees her sister smile. she starts kicking her feet with the biggest smile on her own face.

your older daughter starts laughing with her and tries to make her little sister laugh more—she was successful.

meanwhile, you chuckle, leaning on your husband’s shoulder, “admit it, kento; it was kind of funny.”

his resolve softens at the sound of laughter from all three of his girls, “okay, maybe a little, but—“

“yay!!”

ladies: 1

kento: 0

FUSHIGURO TOJI:

your husband and son are so alike, save for the part that your husband is a bit more shameless, and your son is more on the shy side.

however, they both have the same bluntness and the tendency to give anyone who they don’t like attitude.

for example, today, you were walking in the park with the both of them to unwind a bit.

not to mention that megumi wanted to walk his dogs which was a plus, since you would be able to watch your dear son play around with them.

it was all going great until you saw an old ‘friend’ who came running at the sight of you. he was someone who has always been way too touchy and in your personal bubble.

you have tried talking to him about it, but you’re confident that he does it to somehow force you into reciprocating the intimacy.

even if you’re a married woman with a freaking kid.

he giddily clasps your hand, “y/n, ‘been a long time!”

“h-hey,” you smile awkwardly.

he laughs, “I was passing by when I saw your figure, and I couldn’t help but come and say hi.”

you nod, “that’s great, but I am busy, so maybe later?—“

“you’ve gotten even prettier!” he exclaims, “I wish you would finally take me out on a—“

“can’t you see that she is uncomfortable?” your son retorts, “also, you should step back; you shouldn’t touch someone like this without asking them.”

megumi squeezes himself between the both you and glares at the man.

the guy was about to reply to your son, but toji pushes him back with ease, pulling you beside him and hand resting on your waist almost by instinct, “kid is right,” he tilts his head a bit, “ever been taught manners or do I have to do the teaching for you?”

the guy is taken back; offended, he snaps “you can’t speak to me like that!”

“and you can’t hold my mom’s hands like that, but here we are,” your son cleverly sasses him.

on the other hand, your—shameless—husband pulls you into one scandalous kiss and smirks at the guy when he pulls back, “and you can’t hit on a married woman, by the way.”

you hear your son gag in disgust at his dad’s actions, but you’re too busy burying your face in your husband’s chest, hoping that the guy disappears before toji makes even more of a bigger scene.

you also hope that the ground would swallow you, but that’s the alternative option.

the guy clutches his fist, before walking away, spewing insults at the sky—since he is too scared to cuss out your buff husband. once the man is out of sight, toji ruffles megumi’s hair, chuckling, “good job, kid.”

your shy bean’s cheeks redden slightly as he looks away, “…thanks.”

you’re still thinking about what just happened when you slap your husband’s chest, “toji, literally why?” you grumble, patting megumi who started holding onto your leg the moment you hugged toji.

“why not,” your husband shrugs with a small smile, taking pride in your flustered form.

“dad, I want ice cream.”

“no, you just want me to let go your mom, so you can hog her for yourself,” toji grumbles, staring down at megumi.

unfaltering, megumi looks up at him ,“dad, I want ice cream.”

“god damn it, listen here you—“

“divine dogs.”

RYOMEN SUKUNA:

there is no denying that both your son and your husband care for you very much, and they both—very aggressively—compete for your attention.

I am talking he literally throws the kid across the room kind of aggressive, and your son, in turn, throws whatever he has at him.

it’s eventful, but you would be lying if you said that it wasn’t one of the reasons why you will get grey hair earlier than everyone else.

so their very aggressive nature is also shown in their protectiveness over you.

a person doesn’t need to insult or even dare flirt with you for your devil duo to make their life a living hell; your husband and son don’t tolerate someone speaking to you if it causes you to ignore both of them.

for example, this one new servant was clueless to where the broom is, and unluckily for him, he saw you sitting with your husband and son in the gardens. he humbly approached you, “excuse me, m’lady.”

you turn to look at him with a smile, “yes?”

he clears throat, a bit flustered by the attention, “I—I wanted to ask where the—“

“up your ass, you disgusting fiend,” your son sneers followed by his father’s ever-permanent scowl.

“who gave you the permission to come and speak to her so casually?” sukuna presses, and the servant quickly falls to his knees.

“m-my apologies, my lord! I did not mean to disturb you!”

sukuna crosses his arms, “well, you did, and you also disturbed your queen and prince,” his eyes narrow at the servant, “what do you have to say for yourself?”

meanwhile, you’re watching all of that, mouth agape and trying to articulate anything to save the poor guy. you finally find your voice, “sukuna, it’s okay; he didn’t mean—“

your son hugs you tightly and glares at the servant, “to think he would so brazenly speak to you like you’re old friends is terrible, mother.”

you can almost see your son’s cursed energy flaring, and you can spot the small smirk on your husband’s face as he watches his son.

before it escalates any further and you find yet another dead corpse in your palace, you pick up your son, kissing his cheek which makes him flustered and causing him to bury his face in your neck.

you look at the servant, “you’re dismissed, and you can ask the head maid about anything you need, okay?”

“y-yes, m’lady!” he, however, stays glued to the ground, “may I have the permission to lift my head?”

sukuna grunts, “sure.”

“thank you, m’lord,” the servant says, before scurrying towards the gate, having secured his freedom after his little mistake.

or at least, that’s what he thought.

your husband slices his legs off with a flick of a finger, and your son, who has inherited his father’s technique, slices the head off.

and so the body falls to the ground, and the other servants hurriedly start cleaning up the mess.

you frown at your husband, “sukuna! he apologized!”

he rolls his eyes, and pulls you by the waist, “do I look like I care? he shouldn’t have interrupted our time together.”

“aww, you’re jealous!”

“no, I am not—“

“hands off, old man!”

Genre: Fluff, Kissing , protectiveness from your husband's as well as you kids

CHOI YEONJUN

Two peas in a pod, twins, copies: these are all things people have called your husband and son.

honestly, they're not wrong. your son has his father's looks from his fox eyes to his pouty lips -Yeonjun swears he has your nose and ears but anyway-and he carries the same protectiveness and love he holds for you, if not amplified.

you can't count on one hand the amount of times the house has been turned upside down because of their fights for a cuddle session with you.

of course, you have always tried suggesting them simply sharing you, but these problem children would rather eat raw zucchini than ever share the cuddle time.

so while your son is barely six, you can still count on him to team up with Yeonjun against anyone who wrongs you in anyway like what's happening right now for example.

you're out with your lovely family to buy some groceries, and since they both were whining about getting some sweets, you allowed them to go and snatch a couple from the next aisle.

on the other hand, you stayed to look for another type of detergent to clean the floor-especially since Yeonjun got this new type of paint for s/n and it's quite an endeavour to remove it with a regular detergent.

however, being in the cleaning supplies section never guaranteed the lack of filthy men who can't take no for an answer. this one man approaches you, smug grin on his face as he leans on the wall, "what's a pretty lady like you doing alone?"

"buying groceries like a normal person; now please leave me alone."

he quickly frowns, "don't be so stingy doll," his hand extends towards your arm, "I can show you a good time; I promise--"

the man is swiftly smacked with an egg on his face, and he is left with the egg dripping down his face, "what's your wrong with your kid, man?!" he yells at the person behind you.

He then grumbles, "ruined a potential good night."

"My kid was absolutely right in what he did," you hear Yeonjun’s voice. you then feel a hand on your shoulder, and you're pulled into a chest you're all too familiar with, ""junnie-"

your husband shoots a small smile your way, pressing a quick kiss to your lips, before looking at his son, "that last throw was very good, son ! throw another one but just below his stomach."

A Cheshire cat-like grin is plastered on your husband's face as your boy prepares to launch another egg at the man.

there is a very evident scowl on your son's face as he yells, "don't you ever bother mama again, you stinky bum crumb!"

the man gasps and tries to make a run for it, but your son wouldn't be the son of Choi Yeonjun if he doesn't manage to land the hit exactly where he wants.

the man quickly crumbles to the ground screaming and alerting literally everyone in the store.

So Yeonjun picks both you and your son and makes a run for it.

you hold tightly onto him, "wait, ‘junnie, the groceries!"

"we can always order! saving my princess and son is more important!"

your son grumbles, "but I want to hit the rude man!"

"me too, champ, but-" Yeonjun’s sweat-drops and glances behind him, "I doubt the angry security guards wouldn't like that!"

CHOI SOOBIN

Your twin girls are one of the sassiest to exist.

In a way, they take after their father who is also pretty sassy but very low-key.

The sass of all three combined is terrible to be the victim of. Luckily for you, they don’t dare direct their triple ray towards you, especially-in any argument at least one will try to win you over. As you know the girls have inherited their father's professional yapping mechanism since birth, the trinity force uses that card whenever they're in an argument.

If it’s Soobin trying to stay on your good side, then he is hugging you from behind, pressing feather-like kisses on your shoulder and whispering about how sweet you are. If it’s the girls, then they cling to your legs and keep yelling about how much they love you.

So it is safe to say that you have a small squad to protect you from any potential “danger”.

A snort escapes your husband, and you’re barely able to contain your smile.

Your other daughter follows up, looking at her twin sister, “the lady looks like that one green thingy we saw yesterday,” she taps her little foot, trying to remember and beams at the woman,

“shrek! You look like shrek!”

Then they both glare at her, frowning, “you’re a monkey!”

Your husband doesn’t let it go as he deals the final -subtle-blow, “come on now girls; we shouldn’t bully the lady with the mcdonald’s like hairline Anymore, "

"Also ma’am you should look at yourself in the mirror before saying something to Others especially my wife, as you can see she gave birth to my beautiful daughters and she looks like a absolute Goddess to me and we actually didn't ask for any of you opinion, so keep them to you shallow of a life and excuse us please” Your husband concludes.

It seems like the woman can’t take it anymore as She starts muttering how the society is and the new generation is disrespectful.

A moment of silence is shared across the four Of you, before you carry both of your girls in your arms and start tickling them, “I don’t know whether to be proud of you or scold you, little evil Girls!”

They squeal, trying to escape your hold and calling for their father.

Soobin chuckles and wraps his arms around the three of you, “let them have it for tonight, y/n,” he ruffles their hair, “they were brave and defended their mom, after all.”

“yeah, papa is right!”

“yes mama, please!”

You pout then smirk at geto, “well I don’t mind, and since papa is also very proud of you girls, he will buy any toy that you guys want today!”

The colour drains from your husband’s face, and he Watches motionlessly as his girls latch onto him, screaming about the toys they want.

You giggle at his expression and blow him a kiss. He reluctantly blows you one back, while the girls excitedly pull him towards the toy store.

CHOI BEOMGYU

Your husband and son are so alike, save for the part that your husband is a bit more shameless, and your son is more on the shy side.

However, they both have the same bluntness and the tendency to give anyone who they don’t like attitude.

The guy clutches his fist, before walking away, spewing insults at the sky-since he is too scared to cuss out your husband. Once the man is out of sight, Beomgyu ruffles his child’s hair, chuckling, “good job, Bud.”

Your shy bean’s cheeks redden slightly as he looks Away, “…thanks.”

You’re still thinking about what just happened when you slap your husband’s chest, “Gyu, literally why?” you grumble, patting you Kid who started holding onto your leg the moment you hugged Beomgyu.

“why not,” your husband shrugs with a small smile, taking pride in your flustered form.

“dad, I want ice cream.”

“no, you just want me to let go your mom, so you can hog her for yourself,” Beomgyu grumbles, staring down at his and your little version.

Unfaltering, Your son looks up at him, “dad, I want ice cream.”

“- or else I’ll call Yeonjun uncle to-.”

“god damn it, listen here you-“

You laugh at their bickering

KANG TAEHYUN

There is no denying that both your son and your husband care for you very much, and they both- are very smart-as they compete for your attention.

I am talking he literally talk senses in your child whenever it comes to taking care of you whenever he wasn’t around and your son, in turn, lecture his father to stop being clingy to his mother as he is old enough to sleep by himself.

It's eventful, but you would be lying if you said that it wasn’t one of the reasons why you will get grey hair earlier than everyone else.

So their very smartass nature is also shown in their protectiveness over you.

A person doesn’t need to insult or even dare flirt with you for your devil duo to make their life a living hell; your husband and son don’t tolerate someone speaking to you if it causes you to ignore both of them.

For example, today when the three of you are sprawled in grass of the public park as all of soak the sun up, as you Are making a flower crown for both your nerds when suddenly you feel a tap on your shoulders

You turn to look at the person being a men with creepy smile gracing his face, “yes?”

He clears throat, a bit flustered by the attention, “I wanted to ask where are you from ?”

“Um-I ‘m sorry but ---”

“Don’t worry love, I’m gonn’ treat you good” as he lays his hand on your shoulders, your about to give him a good push before you son speaks up

“take your disgusting hands off my mother shoulders , you unnatural looking fiend,” your son sneers followed by his father’s presence as he pulls you behind him as the man hurriedly takes his hand off your shoulders, slightly annoyed as well as scared from your husband's buff figure from the two more company of your son and husband.

“who are you to lay your limping hands on my wife and speak to her so casually?” Taehyun presses, and the man cowers away at the intimidating look Taehyun gives him as well as his dead stare as the man grumbles a quick Apologise to your husband.

As the man tries to walk away your son stands in his tracks, hand folded and just like his father, that boba eyes glaring at the man

“ Aren’t you going to apologise to my mother properly for causing her inconvenience ? Don’t you have any manners, or not ? Is this how you treat a woman ?” Your son questioned him making the man conscious of his action followed by your husband’s comment

“ Well my son just said something, aren’t going to answer ? Or should we make-” Meanwhile, you’re watching all of that, mouth agape and trying to articulate anything but the man immediately replies in fear.

“I’m so sorry for the inconveniences I caused you ma’am I didn’t mean to do that, please forgive me ” bowing his head to you as you bowed back a little to acknowledge and accept his apology as the said man in question runs away after he saw your husband nod his head at him.

Your son hugs you tightly and glares at the man’s retreating figure “ Dad why did you let him go off so easily? ”

You immediately reply before Taehyun does “ he already apologized my Little man , so that’s enough of torment you and your dad gave him by your stares”

You can spot the small smirk on your husband’s face as he watches his son grumbles. As you pick up your son, kissing his cheek which makes him flustered and causing him to bury his face in your Neck.

Your husband watches both of you with a smile as He rolls his eyes, and pulls you by the waist, “do I look like I care about the stares ? He shouldn’t have interrupted our time together And neither should’ve touched your shoulders .”

“aww, you’re jealous!”

“no, I am not-“

“Yes you are father, don’t lie! ”

As both of laugh at your son words, you realise your creation as you ask both of them

“ Who’s gonna wear these cute flower crowns I made ! ”

“No- no Mama, you and dad can wear that not me ” Your son says quickly to get away from looking cute, as you thought to yourself how much he is like his father in nature too, always want to be more of intimidating rather than cute but they're so cute and adorable you can't even explain

“Nope baby you and your father, both are gonna wear them—”

Before you can finish the sentence both of your boys runs off away from you, laughing as you chase after them

HUENING KAI

You and your husband were blessed with the sweetest girl as your daughter, and she was just recently joined by another sweet girl.

You can never forget the happiness on your daughter’s face when she saw her baby sister.

It also seems that no matter how many times you give birth, your husband can’t help but get emotional when he holds your baby. His hands are forever delicate as he cradles her to his chest.

You remember what he said during the birth of your first daughter.

“I feel like a piece of heaven has been plucked and placed in my arms.”

The way he always goes soft for the three of you is honestly adorable.

Today, you were going on an outing with your- now 6 months old-baby and your older daughter who is almost six.

Your husband has always been happy about helping you out with you throughout everything, as he never misses a chance to carry the baby or the baby supplies.

You have offered to at least carry the bag, but he always refuses, stating that ‘you already carried the baby for nine entire months in your belly; this Is the least I can do.

So yeah, sometimes you wish to smooch your husband till forever at his cuteness and his care and love for you and your daughters but that’s not the point.

You’re walking hand in hand with your daughter as she sings her favorite song. You hear someone click their tongue, so you look to the side and lock eyes with an old lady. She takes the opportunity and approaches you.

“you should be ashamed of yourself!” she yells pointing at you, “your husband shouldn’t be carrying the baby supplies nor the baby itself for the matter,” she scowls, “that’s your job!”

Kai reply to the lady with a frown on his “with all due respect ma’am, but that isn’t her job, and taking care of the baby should be something we are both responsible for.”

“yeah!” your daughter huffs, “and don’t take out your sad life on my mama!”

Your eyes widen as you stare at your daughter.

On the other side, your husband is just as speechless. Your daughter pays no one any mind as she continues, “mama works hard every day! You wouldn’t know that! You immature nugget!”

Huening frowns lightly, “princess, that’s not nice-“

And for the cherry on top, your baby daughter throws the bottle cap she was playing with at the old lady, and frowns at her.

She starts babbling some nonsense that you’re Pretty sure are curse words in baby language. Having had enough, the old lady huffs, “the utter Disrespect,” and starts walking away.

The rest of the spectators’ eyes follow her till she is out of sight. Finally then, people start minding their own business, and you and your little family are left to the aftermath.

You giggle, “that was funny.”

“really?!” your daughter beams.

Kai cuts her off, “no,” he then looks at you with a small frown, a sigh escaping his lips, “y/n don’t encourage them-“

Your baby daughter screams happily when she sees her sister smile. She starts kicking her feet with the biggest smile on her own face.

Your older daughter starts laughing with her and tries to make her little sister laugh more-she was successful.

Meanwhile, you chuckle, leaning on your husband’s shoulder, “admit it, Babe; it was kind of funny.”

His resolve softens at the sound of laughter from All three of his girls, “okay, maybe a little, but-“

“yay!!”

falling in love with your roommate, suna rintaro

roommates to lovers

a/n: i haven't read the manga so i don't rly know anything abt rin's fam situation - sorry if any info is incorrect loll also this is more of like a college au?? idk if rin went to college but here it is

a/n pt. 2: i kinda switch between using rin and suna sorry

"rintaro!"

"what?"

"aren't you tired of living in my home, still? you're 21! i'm sure all of your friends have moved out already, right? most of them probably moved out at 18, but you haven't budged an inch!" mrs. suna scolded.

"yeah, yeah, pipe down, mom. i'll move out soon, i promise."

"no! it was fine that you stayed home for your freshman year of college, and i thought that you'd start being independent for your sophomore year, but you're still completely dependent on us! you don't cook, buy groceries, clean, or do any work around here! what are you going to do when you've graduated and you don't know how to run a washing machine?"

"yes, yes, i'm sorry."

"and i was very understanding of the fact that you didn't want to move into a dorm, but aren't you tired of commuting hours away when you could just get a closer apartment?"

"mhm, mhm."

she sighed. "rintaro, you know im only saying this because i care about you. i want you to be independent and strong, you know?"

"yep. i just booked an apartment tour via online."

"and i- huh?"

yeah.

soon after he decided the apartment was in good enough condition to be living in, he rented it out and moved in.

on his moving day, he met you.

"hi! you're.. suna rintaro, right? sorry i wasn't there on your tour day. i'm your new roommate, l/n! nice to meet you." you said, a friendly smile on your features.

stoically, suna replied, "good to meet you."

at first, you and suna kinda kept to yourselves. you were polite to each other, of course, but there wasn't much talking, only coexisting.

that is, until you discovered his grocery bills.

"$18... you've been surviving on $18?!" you looked at him in shock.

"yeah. is that weird?"

"damn right it is! what are you even buying?"

"well.. i don't know how to cook anything, so i mostly order door dash. my grocery bill is from instant ramen, chuppets, eggs, and milk."

you stare at him blankly.

"you've been eating nothing but door dash, instant ramen, candy, eggs, and milk for the past 2 months?"

"yeah."

this guy.

he just stands there awkwardly at you laugh at him.

from then on, you two become closer.

you taught him basic recipes to make using groceries you taught him to buy, (imagine his shock when his bill came out to be like $60.. and you were like "bro that's normal") you taught him how to use a washing machine, ("oh, so you put the detergent in this compartment..") etc. just basic household chores, but he was so impressed.

eventually, you two stopped being friendly roommates and just became friends.

he was a good listener. you'd rant to him about your problems, no matter how insignificant, and he'd listen to you carefully, and you never felt like your problems were stupid whenever you talked to him.

you two started hanging out a lot. you'd study together at cafes, go to amusement parks on weekends, and just chill at home together.

and as much as you hated to admit it, you had started developing feelings for your roomie.

i mean, how could you not? he was tall, handsome, kind, funny, cheeky, and it certainly helped that you got to see him all tired in the mornings.

you didn't really know if he felt the same way, but if he did, he was a real bitch, because at some point, your relationship became kind of flirty, and he'd give you butterflies on a daily basis.

you two would watch scary movies and he'd let you cling to him, giving your terrified features a teasey smile every now and then.

he'd walk around the apartment with his toned abs out, and his sweats dangerously low on his hips.

when you guys went on walks, he'd give you his hoodie if it got cold.

whenever you'd go on long rants, he'd just stare at your face with love in his eyes. "and then i-what is it, rin?" "nothing, pretty."

like sir you can't just do that. you're too handsome to do that without risk of heart explosion.

then, one day, unexpectedly, he popped the question.

you two were watching a cheesy romcom for the 5th time, sharing a pot of instant ramen, and at the same moment that the male lead said to the female lead, "i like you. a lot. i have for a while now," rin did too.

it wasn't grand.

it wasn't loud.

it wasn't annoying.

you weren't even sure if he meant it.

but when you saw him looking at you, nervous, awaiting a response, you knew he did.

so, at the same time the female lead said, "me too," you did too.

then, with the cheesy romantic music playing in the back, you guys gave each other cheesy smiles, and he planted a cheesy peck on your cheek.

it was subtle.

it was sweet.

it was cheesy.

it was familiar.

it was uncharacteristically romantic and sentimental.

it was just like how your future relationship with your roomie and best friend, suna rintaro, was going to be.

I saw an ad on tiktok for a “splash blanket” (meant for fun times) and I immediately thought of aaron, a man who is so tired of having to wash the sheets so often but it also doubles as a splash pad for when babygirl is eating a snack on the carpet or furniture (I can’t remember if you named her or not 😭)

omg stop i love that 😭😭 that's SO HIM

you already know he was wayyyyyy too proud of himself when he found that 😭🥰 hehe he has a shit-eating smirky grin on his face as he shows you, like - look how useful!!!! :D ;) let's test it out immediately LMAO. and now detergent doesn't run low too fast <333

but omg when baby girl enters her lil messy phase and accidentally stains the carpet a few times - the idea strikes him. and then he's so proud of himself that it's able to be used in more ways than one, and leave it to him to be convenient 😭 def worth the money. plus it's easily transferable too!!!! you can pack it in the car and take it anywhere - i.e. movie nights at jj's, to dave's, even aaron's office if she needs to be dropped off there for one reason or another.

(AND at first you're a little horrified that's what he's using for her to sit on 😭 but aaron just rolls his eyes and says it's clean, and thoroughly at that, so it's fine 🥰🥰🥰 but for your peace of mind he buys another solely for baby girl's usage LOL)

and omg baby girl does have an unofficial official name 🫢 that is if y'all are for naming her <3333 hehe i think it's so cute i'm obsessed with it

Oneshot: Mad by Ne-yo

warnings!!! fluff (maybe a bit of angst???), the character is aged 18+, and there are grammatical errors ahead. Please read with a grain of salt.

Pairings: timeskip!sakusa kiyoomi x gn!reader

Dating Sakusa means having to deal with his mysophobia while he also tries to get used to being touchy around you. It was a petty argument when it came to him.

"What are you doing?" he asked. He had just arrived home from overtime at practice with the MSBY and had to deal with Bokuto's emo mood throughout the training. He just wanted to eat dinner and sleep with you in his arms.

But things escalated when he saw you facing the door to the entrance of the bathroom, crouching down in front of the cabinet under the sink as you were shuffling some items.

You stopped what you were doing and turned around. He looked at you, noticing that you were wearing a mask and a yellow cleaning latex glove, waiting for you to speak up.

"Omi, you're home," you acknowledged before standing up, lowering your mask with the finger pads of your glove which made him scrunch his nose. "I was arranging your—"

"Arranging?" he cut you off, brows furrowed a little. "Did I ask for it?" Exhaustion and hunger were taking a toll on him, and he couldn't take it that you were touching his stuff when he didn't even ask you to do it.

A little taken aback, your parted lips formed a thin line before you shook your head. Awkwardly shifting your weight on your feet, you looked down at the floor.

You heard him sigh and looked up again to see him running his fingers through his hair before stepping closer to you and crouching down at the cupboards. He scanned the detergent pods, spray bottles, and other cleaning materials before his brows furrowed even deeper.

"I already arranged them according to which product I use most often to least. Detergent pods are different from powders, even if they have the same scent, you can't put them together."

Your lips formed an 'O' shape before looking at him rearrange the items in the cabinet.

"Damn, you even messed up which spray bottle is for floors and tables," he muttered, which didn't escape your ears.

Just how are they different? They're both spray bottles.

Suddenly, he turned around, which took you by surprise. He was glaring at you, and as if he had read your mind, he spoke, "Even if they are both spray bottles, you still have to separate them."

He stood up after closing the cabinet and placed his hands in his pockets as he looked down at you with the same expression. "There are different types of chemicals mixed in their solutions," he said firmly, making you shrink back at his tone.

"What do you think would happen if I used the one with a strong chemical solution in cleaning our dining table, and you, being the airhead you are, put your hands on the countertop and wherever else, and directed it to your skin, hmm? Heck—if even our future child could inherit your clumsiness and touch their face with their hands that touched who knows where I sprayed that kind of solution and get sick, huh?"

You weren't able to comprehend the second sentence as the thought of the possibility of getting to that point already made you swallow a lump in your throat and hang your head low, fidgeting with your fingers while still wearing the yellow latex glove.

Sakusa stood there with his brows raised for a moment, not knowing that you were thinking he was mad at you. But in reality, he was just scolding and lecturing you about the consequences of messing up the arrangement of his cleaning supplies. Although he knew you meant no harm, he just didn't know how to rephrase it.

Waiting for your reply, Sakusa grew anxious. Was he blabbering too much? Was he saying too much? Was he rude? He just wanted to let you know. Yet, he could've said it another way and not rub it in your face.

After a while, you spoke, still not meeting his eye. "I'm sorry, I didn't know…" Noticing the shift in your tone, Sakusa anxiously shifted on his feet and was about to say that it wasn't your fault for being ignorant, but the way your body turned around shook him a little.

"I'll try not to touch—arrange them for you," you said, your voice above a whisper, making his throat run dry. "Dinner's at the table, I've already eaten."

As you headed out of the bathroom, he felt the colors drain. Debating whether to walk after you or head to eat, before he knew it, he was already standing at the doorframe of your shared bedroom, unmasked, staring at your back as you lay sideways on the bed.

It shattered him; it was never his intention to indirectly tell you about being so ignorant of all things—his cleaning supplies.

As you lay there, words ran through your mind. Chemicals… they have different kinds? you thought, biting your lower lip as you stared at the dark sky through the windows.

Footsteps on the floorboard could be heard as they approached the bed. Feeling the bed sink at the additional weight, you heard him from behind.

"Love," he started. His voice contrasted with the one he used to scold and lecture you with.

But you were stubborn to hear another from him and cut him off before he could continue, "I've eaten."

"I'm not hungry anymore," surprisingly, he was, after knowing he made you feel a little less after lecturing you like that. Suddenly, you felt a hand slide from behind you to your waist and rest there.

You felt him scoot closer to you until you felt his breath on your nape.

"I'm not mad," he said, closing his eyes as the words that came out of his mouth were reassuring and genuine. "But I'm mad thinking you think I'm mad," he added, his wrap tightening around you, making you tense up but later on relax.

Suddenly, you found yourself unable to answer, and he took it as a sign to continue, "I'm not mad," he repeated. "I was just… a little conscious of the idea of having you touch those without knowing they have different properties."

"But I'm not saying being ignorant on your part is at fault either; you simply didn't know," he quickly added, not wanting you to think of something negative.

"I really… have a way with words, that most people misunderstand," he continued. "But love, please know, I'll never be mad at you for not knowing something that is beyond your field of expertise," he said softly, finally opening his eyes.

Feeling your heart flip a little at his confession, you turned around, completely facing him as you spoke quietly, "You're not…?"

Sakusa's expression softened, glad that you were now facing him. "I'm not," he said, reaching for your chin and lifting it up for you to look in his eyes. "And I don't want you to go to bed, mad at me, or thinking that I am, to you."

Your heart was beating abnormally fast. True, he has a way with words, but his confession had just made you forget about your little exchange in the bathroom.

As you were about to reply, a stomach growl interrupted you. Sakusa, whose face was now uncharacteristically red, buried his face in the crook of your neck.

You chuckled softly, wrapping your arms around his torso. "You should really eat," you said softly, only to hear a muffled groan from your neck followed by incoherent words that you couldn't make out. "Hmm?"

"Eat with me," he said, leaning back from your neck, his face no longer red. "No, at least, watch me eat," he rephrased, making your lips curl up in a smile, earning a nod from you.

"Alright."

requests are open!

[crybaby-bkg]

hi, boo! just wanted to drop by to ask how you're doing <3

ALSO do you have any thoughts about katsuki today n would you mind sharing them with the rest of us in the clerb 🤲🏼

hi love!!!! it’s so nice seeing you come back here, I’ve missed you so much 😭 and I’m doing great!! I spent the day with my bsf and enjoyed myself so much!! how have you been??

and honestly I haven’t had many thoughts about him 😔 ASHAMED 🫵🏼 but I have been thinking about just being domestic with him!!! having days that overwhelm you both, and how things don’t necessarily need to be said in order to comfort each other. he just gets you, knows that that heaviness in your shoulders means a troubling day, that your thin-set mouth is stress, that you low eyes mean exhaustion.

and he takes care of you, so easily, like it’s second nature to him. he doesn’t want you to fall in on yourself, so while he doesn’t do everything for you, he does make it a point to do it with you. beside you, and catching the extra when it seems to slip from your hands.

he cooks dinner, but asks you to chop up the vegetables (because the repetitive motion calms you). he washes clothes, but tells you to get them out the dryer (because he knows the smell of his detergent makes your entire body relax). he runs errands, but asks you to make a list (to remind you that you need to write down things that you want too, even if you don’t need them). (he gets you the things you don’t write down, anyway.)

just him doing everyday tasks with you when things get hard 🥲

[solitarelee]

Can you tell us your laundry secrets ?I have the sudden Fear that I've been washing my clothes all wrong and they're going to disintegrate the next time a wind blows through.

LOL well I doubt it's that bad! I mean the basics are like, never use fabric softeners or dryer sheets, make sure your laundry detergent has things in it that will actually clean your clothes based on how dirty they are (laundry strips will not get heavy soil off). Check the tags of your clothes carefully when you buy them and, if you're me, write that shit down because one day you'll spontaneously forget whether or not your leggings can go into the dryer and the instructions will have looooooooong since faded.

Sorting clothes is necessary but more based along how you intend to wash them than arbitrary color piles. I feel like this is obvious but it might not be: wash all your gentles together. If you're not sure what needs to be washed on gentle because you didn't check your tags, in general it's underwear, ties, anything made out of lace or silk, basically anything that's, well, delicate. If you, like me, are cursed with a washing machine with no FUCKING delicate cycle, permanent press is the next best thing, but I also suggest investing in a lingerie bag if you, like me, are someone who wears, say, an absolutely absurd amount of stockings/tights.

If something says dry clean only. Dry clean only. At least if you're here asking me for laundry tips, because while you can wash dry clean only clothes at home, you need more know-how than I have, which is probably more know-how than you (general you) have. XD There are ways, though, if you're really broke or very good at fabrics.

There are rules about when to wash on hot and when to wash on cold but boy howdy I tell you what I basically just always wash on cold. This is in part due to the kinds of clothes I wear (I wear approximately one shirt per week that could be washed in hot water) and the fact I live in a warm climate where the water doesn't get so cold as to interfere with the detergent working. I do sheets in warm water, though, for hygiene reasons.

Low heat dry. Basically always. Just be patient and keep running them through. Generally speaking. Cold water: less wear and tear. Gentle cycle: less wear and tear. Low heat dry: less wear and tear. I am out here trying to make these clothes LAST bby.

*Disclaimer: I'm not a laundry expert by any stretch of the imagination and there are probably fabrics experts on here that could easily dance circles around me, these are just things I've picked up in my quest to not have to buy new clothes maybe ever if I'm lucky.

[munsonthemisfit]

I've moved across country (twice if we count me moving out there and then me coming back home. I left for school for a couple years).

I'm not sure what exactly the Knife Anon needs help with (budgeting, finding the right state/place, deciding on the best mode to get across). If they're comfortable they can DM me!

Easiest thing to do is pick when they want to move and then work backwards on a timeline and budget. Definitely research where you're thinking of for average cost of rent, groceries, and generally health stuff can help you figure out how much to budget on average and then save over that. (I'm personally moving [yes, fucking again] and am saving to save 3 months worth of expenses. But I'm planning to stay within state because my job is remote and I can move with it significantly easier in state. If you can't transfer your job I'd say try and save for ~6 months expenses. This is a honestly probably a low ball answer but we gotta surive in the now and in the future somehow)

State taxes are a bitch--it can be something so little, but very sneaky. Moved from one state where state tax was 6% to a state with damn near 10% and had a HEART attack at how expensive it was.

Apartment application fees are GOING to SUCK. I'd personally only apply to a place that you actually WANT to live. Visit virtually if you can with a tour. Google reviews are wonderful. Obviously, seeing the place is person is the best, but we do what we gotta do. Some places may run a credit check once you apply. That credit check may ding your score. I'm not an credit score expert by no means, but apartments may ask for either a payment stub so they can see how much you make. Most places want you to make 3x the rent. If you get a roommate or a guarantor, that can help you land the place. Guarantors get added as someone who becomes responsible for the cost of the rent if you can't pay. My dad was my guarantor when I left for school, and it freaked me out for a second the first time the place told me I'd have to add him because I didn't make enough. (I NEEDED a place like ASAP so my move was very rushed).

Deciding what you /need/ to bring with you and what is more feasible to get once you move is super important. Dollar stores and thrift stores can be a great place to get necessities once you've moved (utensils, detergent, dining ware) until you get fully settled and then you can go balls to the walls in Target.

How you move will also factor into your budget. Flying vs packing up a van, truck, U-Haul (whatever tickles your fancy and doesn't make your wallet choke).

Using google maps and putting in the general area they're interested in plus things like "grocery store" "pharmacy" "dentist" "doctor" etc can show you how far away things are from each other and get you familiar with the place.

There's a lot....in this message and a lot more I could say. But I think right now it might be better to work backwards. When do you want to be gone and then work on location and cost after you decide that.

-H (and to admin: yep, you can yeet this with my @. It's totally a-okay!)

Thank you so much! I’m gonna post this publicly as you’ve given consent but then I’ll make sure to forward it to knife anon privately so they don’t miss it, I don’t want to tag their username here and expose them without their side of the consent to. Thank you so much for the detailed information, you’re wonderful <3

Comprehensive Guide to AC Repair in Panvel: How to Maintain Your Cooling Systems

Panvel, located near the bustling city of Mumbai, experiences sweltering heat, especially during the summer months. The scorching temperatures make air conditioners (ACs) a necessity rather than a luxury in most homes and businesses. However, just like any other appliance, air conditioners can face wear and tear, leading to breakdowns and inefficiency. Regular maintenance is essential to keep your AC running smoothly and to prevent costly repairs.

Whether you're dealing with a malfunctioning unit or simply need advice on maintaining your cooling system, understanding the importance of AC care is key. This comprehensive guide provides valuable insights on how to maintain your AC system and when it's time to call in professionals for AC repair in Panvel.

The Importance of Regular AC Maintenance

Regular maintenance of your air conditioner is essential to its longevity and efficient performance. By taking proactive measures to maintain your AC unit, you can avoid sudden breakdowns, reduce energy consumption, and improve indoor air quality. Here’s why maintaining your air conditioning system is so important:

Prevents Costly Repairs: Regular maintenance helps identify and address small issues before they develop into expensive repairs. For instance, cleaning air filters or inspecting coils can prevent the need for a compressor replacement.

Improves Efficiency: A well-maintained AC system runs more efficiently, providing optimal cooling with less energy consumption. This reduces utility bills and enhances the comfort of your home.

Extends the Life of Your Unit: Just like any mechanical system, an AC unit requires care to ensure it operates for many years. With regular maintenance, you can extend its lifespan and get the most out of your investment.

Improves Air Quality: A dirty air filter can spread dust and allergens throughout your home, making the indoor air quality poor. Clean filters and coils help improve the air that circulates in your home, ensuring better health for you and your family.

Basic AC Maintenance Tips

Here are some basic tips for maintaining your AC and ensuring it performs at its best:

1. Clean or Replace Air Filters Regularly

The air filter is one of the most critical components of your air conditioner. It helps to trap dust, dirt, and debris, preventing these particles from entering the system and affecting its performance. Over time, filters can become clogged, reducing airflow and making the AC work harder. This can lead to increased energy consumption and reduced efficiency.

Frequency: Check the air filter every month during peak usage (typically in the summer). Replace or clean it every 3 to 6 months, depending on usage.

How to Clean: For washable filters, use water and mild detergent. For disposable filters, replace them with a new one.

2. Clean the Coils

The evaporator and condenser coils are essential for the cooling process. Dirt and debris can accumulate on the coils, preventing proper heat exchange, which leads to inefficient cooling. If the coils become too dirty, the system may overheat or fail to cool the space effectively.

How to Clean: Use a soft brush or vacuum to gently remove dust from the coils. It’s also a good idea to call a professional for thorough coil cleaning.

3. Inspect the Refrigerant Levels

The refrigerant in your AC system is responsible for transferring heat from inside your home to the outdoors. If the refrigerant levels are low, it can lead to poor cooling performance. Low refrigerant levels are usually caused by leaks, which should be fixed by a professional technician.

When to Check: If you notice that your AC is running but not cooling effectively, it might be time to check the refrigerant levels. A professional AC repair in Panvel technician will be able to diagnose and fix refrigerant issues.

4. Clean the Condensate Drain

The condensate drain removes excess moisture from your AC system, preventing water damage. If the drain becomes clogged, it can lead to water pooling around the unit and potentially cause mold growth or water damage to your walls and floors.

How to Clean: Use a mixture of bleach and water to clear the drain. You can also use a wet-dry vacuum to suck out any debris that may be blocking the line.

5. Check the Thermostat Settings

Your thermostat controls the temperature of your home and tells the AC when to turn on and off. Sometimes, a malfunctioning thermostat can lead to poor temperature regulation or inefficient energy usage.

What to Do: Ensure the thermostat is set to the correct temperature and is not malfunctioning. You can also consider upgrading to a smart thermostat that allows you to control the temperature remotely for better energy savings.

Signs Your AC Needs Repair

Even with proper maintenance, there will be times when your AC unit requires repair. Here are some signs to watch out for that indicate it's time to call in a professional for AC repair in Panvel:

Weak or Warm Airflow: If the air coming from your AC is warm or weak, it might be a sign that there is a problem with the refrigerant, compressor, or other vital components.

Strange Noises: Unusual sounds such as grinding, squealing, or clanking could indicate a problem with the motor, fan, or other moving parts.

Water Leaks: Excessive water around the AC unit could be a sign that the drain is clogged or that the coils are frozen.

Frequent Cycling: If your AC turns on and off frequently, it may be struggling to cool the room or experiencing issues with the thermostat or compressor.

Unpleasant Odors: Foul smells could indicate mold growth, a dirty filter, or a refrigerant leak. These issues should be addressed immediately.

When to Call a Professional for AC Repair

While some basic maintenance tasks can be performed by homeowners, more complex issues require professional help. Calling a qualified technician for AC repair in Panvel ensures that the problem is diagnosed and fixed correctly, preventing further damage to your unit.

Here are some scenarios where you should contact a professional:

If the air conditioner is making strange sounds or is leaking water

If there is a noticeable decrease in cooling efficiency despite regular maintenance

If the refrigerant levels are low or you suspect a refrigerant leak

If the unit is not turning on or is malfunctioning in any way

A professional technician will be able to inspect the unit, identify the root cause of the issue, and recommend the best course of action. They will also be able to perform any repairs needed safely, ensuring that your AC unit is working at its best.

Why Choose Professional AC Repair Services in Panvel

Choosing a reliable AC repair service is crucial to ensure that your system gets the best care. Professional technicians bring years of experience, specialized knowledge, and the right tools to handle all types of AC repairs. Here’s why it’s beneficial to hire a professional:

Expert Diagnosis and Repair: A professional can quickly identify the issue and fix it correctly the first time.

Access to Specialized Tools: Technicians have the tools necessary to perform advanced repairs and maintenance tasks that might not be possible with DIY methods.

Long-Term Savings: While hiring a professional may seem more expensive upfront, it can save you money in the long run by preventing further damage and improving energy efficiency.

Safety: AC repairs can involve electrical components, refrigerants, and other hazardous materials. A professional ensures that all safety protocols are followed.

The Versatility and Benefits of Cotton Towels

Cotton towels are a staple in households around the world, and for good reason. Known for their softness, durability, and absorbency, these towels are essential items in bathrooms, kitchens, gyms, and more. Whether you're drying off after a shower, wiping down a countertop, or cooling off after a workout, cotton towels offer unparalleled utility and comfort. Let's explore the many benefits and versatile uses of cotton towels.

The Comfort of Cotton

One of the primary reasons people prefer cotton towels is their superior comfort. Cotton fibers are naturally soft, making them gentle on the skin. This is especially important for those with sensitive skin or allergies, as cotton is hypoallergenic and less likely to cause irritation. When you wrap yourself in a plush cotton towel after a hot shower, the soft texture provides a comforting, soothing experience that synthetic materials simply can't match.

Superior Absorbency

Cotton towels are renowned for their absorbency. The natural fibers have the ability to hold a significant amount of water, making them highly effective for drying off quickly. This is why cotton towels are the preferred choice in bathrooms and for beach and pool outings. Their absorbent nature ensures that you stay dry and comfortable, even after the most vigorous swimming session.

Durability and Longevity

Another significant advantage of cotton towels is their durability. High-quality cotton towels can withstand frequent washing and heavy use without losing their softness or absorbency. This makes them a cost-effective choice in the long run, as they do not need to be replaced as often as towels made from synthetic materials. With proper care, cotton towels can maintain their quality and performance for many years.

Eco-Friendly Choice

In today's environmentally conscious world, choosing sustainable products is more important than ever. Cotton is a renewable resource, and many cotton towels are now produced using eco-friendly practices. Organic cotton towels, for example, are made without the use of harmful pesticides or synthetic fertilizers, making them a better choice for the environment and for your health. Additionally, cotton towels are biodegradable, reducing their impact on landfills compared to synthetic options.

Versatility in Use

Cotton towels are incredibly versatile, serving a variety of purposes beyond just drying off. In the kitchen, they can be used to dry dishes, clean up spills, and even as makeshift potholders. In the gym, cotton towels are ideal for wiping away sweat and keeping equipment clean. They can also be used for household cleaning tasks, such as dusting and polishing. The versatility of cotton towels makes them an indispensable item in any home.

Care and Maintenance

To ensure your cotton towels remain soft and absorbent, it's important to follow proper care and maintenance practices. Wash them in warm water with a mild detergent, and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can leave residues that reduce absorbency. Tumble dry on a low setting or line dry to preserve the fibers. With the right care, your cotton towels will continue to provide comfort and functionality for years to come.

Conclusion

Cotton towels are a timeless and essential part of daily life, offering unmatched comfort, absorbency, and durability. Their versatility makes them useful in a variety of settings, from the bathroom to the kitchen to the gym. By choosing cotton towels, you not only enjoy the benefits of a high-quality product but also make a more environmentally conscious choice. Invest in a good set of cotton towels, and you'll appreciate their value and utility every day.

As a Millennial who's somehow become connected with a BUNCH of local groups, it really is a case of "90% of success is just showing up."

I don't recall how I got tipped off to the person starting a repair cafe--I may have seen a flyer at the library--but I showed up with a toolkit & promptly met a whole bunch of people who Know Things. Many older than me, yes, but quite a few other 30-somethings as well. This has now led to me volunteering with a group that fixes donated bikes for various people in need in the community. And those folks in turn know OTHER people who run the homeless shelter, refugee services, etc.

Speaking of the homeless shelter, I fetched up at a church (yes, a church--mainline Protestant, if you must know) with the current president of the board of said. Not to mention the groups working at the charity that does a hot meal every day (including holidays!), or provide change & detergent at the laundromat weekly for low-income folks, or run a giving closet out of the building. So now I have a network of people I can tap into should I have free time for any of THOSE efforts, as well. And most of them are Boomers! Because they're retired, or close to it; their kids are grown up; they have the free time.

Oh, and as for native plants: one of the folks who works on that is also a librarian. Ask your librarians--there's a decent chance they know the groups, or even the particular people, you'd want to get involved with.

Just remember that it's sort of like eating potato chips: once you're involved in one thing, you'll probably get into others.

I have no patience for negativity toward "boomers" anymore.

Almost everybody doing the work to restore ecosystems, grow native plants, and preserve rare species is 50 or older

The people I work with IRL have told me that my presence is encouraging because it means "the younger generation is getting involved with this stuff too." There's really not very many people my age

Who do you think was fighting this fight in the 1970's

5 Reasons Orange Park Homeowners Prefer Patio Pavers

Discover why patio pavers are the top choice for Orange Park homeowners. Explore their benefits including durability, design options, ease of maintenance, and eco-friendliness. Learn more about enhancing your outdoor space with AJC Pavers.

When it comes to transforming your outdoor living area, patio pavers stand out as a top choice for Orange Park homeowners. Not only do they enhance the visual appeal of your property, but they also offer durability, versatility, and ease of maintenance. Whether you're updating an existing patio or designing a new one, patio pavers provide a practical and stylish solution. In this article, we'll explore the top five reasons why patio pavers are favored by homeowners in Orange Park.

1. Durability and Longevity

Patio pavers are renowned for their robustness and longevity, making them a perfect fit for Orange Park’s diverse climate. Unlike traditional poured concrete, which can crack under stress or extreme weather conditions, pavers are designed to endure. Each paver is individually set, which allows for slight movement and prevents the kind of cracking that often occurs with solid concrete surfaces. This feature is particularly beneficial in Orange Park, where humidity and temperature fluctuations can put stress on outdoor surfaces.

Additionally, pavers are highly resistant to stains and damage from chemicals or harsh weather conditions. This resilience means that your patio will maintain its appearance and functionality for many years, even with heavy use.

2. Versatile Design Options

One of the standout features of patio pavers is their design flexibility. In Orange Park, homeowners can choose from a wide array of styles, colors, and patterns to match their home's aesthetic. Whether you prefer a traditional look with classic brick pavers or a contemporary design with sleek, modern options, there’s a paver style to suit every taste.

Pavers can be arranged in various patterns, such as herringbone, basketweave, or running bond, allowing you to create a unique and personalized outdoor space. This versatility extends to colors and textures as well, enabling you to complement your home’s architecture or create a contrasting focal point.

3. Easy Maintenance and Repairs

Maintaining a patio with pavers is simple and straightforward. Unlike concrete, which may require sealing and extensive cleaning, pavers are relatively low-maintenance. Regular sweeping and occasional washing with a mild detergent are usually sufficient to keep them looking their best.

Another advantage of pavers is their ease of repair. If a paver becomes damaged or stained, it can be easily replaced without disrupting the entire patio. This capability allows for localized repairs rather than a complete overhaul, saving both time and money.

4. Increase Property Value

Investing in high-quality patio pavers can significantly enhance your property’s curb appeal and market value. A well-designed patio not only provides a functional outdoor living space but also contributes to the overall aesthetic of your home. Potential buyers often view well-maintained outdoor areas as valuable assets, which can make your property more attractive in the real estate market.

Studies have shown that outdoor improvements, including patio installations, can increase property value and appeal. By choosing stylish and durable pavers, you’re making a wise investment that can pay off if you decide to sell your home in the future.

5. Eco-Friendly Choice

Patio pavers offer several environmental benefits, making them a sustainable choice for outdoor spaces. Many pavers are designed with permeability, allowing rainwater to flow through the gaps and reduce runoff. This feature helps manage stormwater, prevent erosion, and replenish groundwater supplies.

Furthermore, the production of pavers typically involves less energy and fewer resources compared to other materials. Choosing eco-friendly pavers supports sustainable practices and contributes to a greener environment.

Patio pavers are a superior choice for Orange Park homeowners seeking durability, design flexibility, easy maintenance, and eco-friendliness. They not only enhance the functionality and appearance of outdoor spaces but also provide a long-lasting investment that can add value to your home.
