[bluemoon1331]

Hello, hello! Welcome to my main blog, where the DCA fascination consumes! My alt blog is @sharetheartman, go check it out if you wanna see the amazing art this community has to offer!

My Ko-fi (if you're able to help a struggling writer, very much appreciated. Can request written commissions if you want): BlueMoon1331

Below is a list of all my current fics on A03 and planned AUs! Give them a read if you love fantasy and the DCA! (Updated to divide between the SFW and NSFW stories)

<<<<<First up, the SFW section!>>>>>>

Finished Works:

One Lost Star- You are a bit of a hermit, living solo off the land since the death of your grandfather. Until you draw certain godly attention, that is.

Scarlet Masquerade- The sole heir to your kingdom, you find yourself caught in the tangled web of the automaton emperor's plans. However, things are about to go from bad to worse when you catch the interest of the deadly automaton assassin sent to end you.

WIPs:

Cosmic Journeys- Trapped in the depths of depression, you seek an unfortunate out. The nearby land owner won't let that happen, though. Thus begins a journey of self-worth and finding hope in a world of madness and compassion, monsters, saints, and everything in between.

Come and Go- A Megamind-inspired AU with Sun as Metroman, Moon as Megamind, and Eclipse as Titan, while you are a delivery driver caught in the middle.

Unusual- An oceanographer, there is no place you'd rather be than scouring the depths of the seven seas, studying its plant life and creatures, in particular the infamous mers, beings most of your co-workers are quite wary of. They don't seem to mind you too much, though, a fact you try not to put stock in until an encounter on the beach near your house flips your entire world upside down. Strings of fate and a battle to rule the oceans with you as the key? Ridiculous. Right?

Of Metal Parts and Roadside Shenanigans- You are a trucker traveling home before unwittingly tripping headfirst into a giant mystery. (More of @deceptiveshadow's Blood Moon cause I love him and cannot help myself.)

One-shots:

Party Crashing 101- A piece inspired by the mafia episode from Helluva Boss. Badass, protective reader ftw XD

Blooming In Adversity- You and the princesses were great friends in your youth, until you had to move away. Years later, you return, your friendship blooming anew. However, dark plots turn in the background, and it may be up to just you to save them.

Phantom Tide- You are a siren, crushed under betrayal. Sun and Moon are brothers recovering from the throes of grief. Perhaps you may be just what each other need.

Connotations- Your duties as a druid are fairly life-consuming, but you have happily devoted yourself to them. Keeping the peace is not the easiest, but you do it all the same. Unfortunately, the arrival of contesting priests threaten your efforts, setting you on a collision course to meet three of the forest's most powerful caretakers.

Diamonds and Iron- Being a rather big-time mafia boss, of course Eclipse needs places to stash away his income. As an outdoor enthusiast, you love visiting the local motorsports arena when you can afford it. Oh, who's that standing in the middle of the track, where you can't see?

Birds of a Feather- You are stuck as the basically powerless manager to the newly opened pizzaplex. With problems everywhere you look, you're not sure which one to focus on or handle first. Perhaps you could find a kindred soul in a certain mechanic, however. (Based in the EAPS universe)

<<<<<<<<<NSFW area ahoy!>>>>>>>>>>

Finished Works:

Never Play Cat and Mouse With Vampires- Living alone is a necessity, your skills in hunting, magic, and evasion giving you all you need for contentment, or so you tell yourself. In your newest home you, unfortunately, find that your capabilities only draw the infatuation of three local creatures that are intent to finally capture you and make you theirs. Annoyingly, they may just get that chance.

Dancing In Orbit- The lunar vampire is the last of his kind, a deadly plague on the Earth that refuses to yield despite the uncountable years that have passed since the last of his kin and kind died off. You, running from your intertwined past, seek to finally put an end to that, with some help from friends old and new.

Familiar Constellations- The vampires get a bit quirky about you, especially when you egg them on. Mature. Very, very mature. Good gods they are rough, but you love it. After all, you can get a bit rough with them, too.

Gravity- Featuring another of @deceptiveshadow's lovely OCs, Nova. Normally quite the quiet and cat-like companion, you join him for a round of games in which his behavior becomes increasingly odd. That's nothing compared to when you strangely wake in the tower the next day, having no recollection of how you got there, and what comes after.

WIPs:

Embers and Ash- Ghost hunting is your profession, and you are damn good at it. Which is why you don't think twice when you're hired to cleanse an abandoned mansion of its otherworldly resident. Too bad this job is not the cake walk you thought it would be.

Burning Stars- You run your farm alone on a world teeming with aliens and humans, content with your animal family and helpful community, even if you keep the latter at arm's lengths. Until your peace is interrupted by a certain intergalactic bounty hunter, anyway.

Rosewood's Serenade- The eldest child of your kingdom, you have trained since birth to be all your home needs and more, intent to take the throne when the time comes, marriage or no. However, your parents harbor a secret, a deal struck when disaster threatened to destroy all they hold dear, and you soon find yourself meeting a most intriguing being...

Demonic- The saying of Hell is empty for all the demons are here has never been more apt. Caught smack dab in the middle of the infamous Hell-Day event, you come out with an unexpected passenger woven into your soul. Now, you secretly fight to preserve the fragile balance between mortals and the demons trapped on Earth, all while contending with the fact your new neighbors are the very ones responsible for sealing the gates, the infamous Celestial Graces. They also happen to be the mortal enemies of the one currently living in you. Fun times all around, especially with devil himself on your heels, seeking to reclaim what he lost.

Along the Akesh- Blessed with visions since your youth, you were taken and raised by the temple, becoming one of the highest-ranked priests, second to only the grand heijut himself. With an awe-inspiring festival and ritual that happens only once every five centuries under way, you are eager to meet the moon god, one of the many you have had the pleasure of conversing with throughout your prayers and oracles, in person. Things take an unexpected turn, however, when the temple must pay recompense for an accidental screw up with a gift left by an old friend. You are about to learn just how intrigued you and the moon god truly are with each other.

One-shots:

Bleeding Feathers- You weren't supposed to go into the exclusionary zone, but that's never been a problem for you before. This time, however, you might just get more than you bargained for. Fan piece for @deceptiveshadow's harpy au! (Not TSAMS)

Color Theory- Moving back to your late grandma's cabin, you pray for things to finally settle down. Unfortunately, her myriad of secrets seek to come back and haunt you, but hey, it might not be all bad this time. You could use the comfort of an old friend. Another fic inspired by @deceptiveshadow! Their god Blood Moon this time. (Not TSAMS)

<<<<<<<Lastly, miscellaneous potential AUs!>>>>>>>

Lich King AU- With the three realms in shambles, cut off from each other, it is up to the most powerful warriors of Earth to fend off the lich king and his Elite army, including his own brothers. You, whom offers them a secret safe haven and relaxation when they need it, cannot deny your love for Sun and Moon, nor they you, but with Eclipse hounding for any weakness he can use against his kin, is the danger really worth it? You find the answer may be coming sooner than you would like when the two go missing after a fight.

Spirited Away AU- You have moved to a more remote region in hopes of forgetting a troubled family life. Content to spend your time among the lush jungles of the land, you inadvertently stumble upon an obviously long-forgotten temple. Curiosity eats at you, and you cannot help get closer, initially unaware of the myriad of eyes watching you, until you spot...an icy blue leopard? It's a good thing you helped those snakes and that spider on your way here.

Harem AU- You saved them from certain death, and now the clan of vampire brothers serve you. For years uncountable, you have pulled the strings, quite happy to cause chaos around the world when it becomes too dull for your liking, going from hero to hero. On blood soaked ground, you are content with your helpful vampires, though can things really stay the same forever?

Skyrim AU- Every place has its demons, no matter how reclusive or small. You consider yourself one of them. Seeking an escape, you move to Solstheim hoping for a fresh start. How unfortunate for you that you would arrive during the island's darkest hour. Cults, strange creatures, a frost giant king, and the arrival of two Dragonborns drag you right back into the spotlight, dredging up your past as you all race against time and the greedy daedra of knowledge to stop each other's destruction.

Then There Was One- You wake up to an empty world. You don't comprehend how or why it happened, just that everyone seems to have vanished in the blink of an eye. Cars sit vacant in traffic, meals left uneaten, internet full of messages that abruptly stopped hours ago. You try to live on your lonesome, keeping yourself distracted, and ignoring the gnawing loneliness. Except, well, you might not be as alone as you think, a fact you find out far too late when your page gets flooded with AI messages and bots are suddenly knocking at your day. Just what the hell kind of universal joke was this robot apocalypse you were stuck in? Or...do you have this all wrong? Your new companions may yet help you figure it out.

I like this condo that is in a former wax museum in New Orleans. It has 1bd & 1ba, is listed at $465,900, but the HOA fee is a whopping $765mo. Who would pay that?

Very cool hallway looks like an art museum.

The open living area is spacious and I love the brick.

Like the backsplash, sink and counter.

The bath is also large.

This is nice, look at the view.

An outdoor "hallway" for residents.

Very cool pool and rooftop deck.

Gym room.

It's a great place, but that HOA fee!

Flying East (No. 3)

Despite its urban character, the San Francisco Bay is one of California's most ecologically sensitive habitats, providing important ecosystem services such as filtering the pollutants and sediments from rivers and supporting a number of endangered species. In addition, the Bay Area is known for its stands of coast redwoods, many of which are protected in state and county parks. The region is additionally known for the complexity of its landforms, the result of millions of years of tectonic plate movements. Because the Bay Area is crossed by 6 major earthquake faults, the region is particularly exposed to hazards presented by large earthquakes. The climate is temperate and conducive to outdoor recreational and athletic activities such as hiking, running, and cycling. The Bay Area is host to 6 professional sports teams and is a cultural center for music, theater, and the arts. It is also host to numerous higher education institutions, including research universities such as Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley. Home to 101 municipalities and 9 counties, governance in the Bay Area involves numerous local and regional jurisdictions, often with broad and overlapping responsibilities.

The Art of Manliness’ Ultimate Guide to Summer

What to Wear When the weather warms up, a new set of clothes in your wardrobe gets put into rotation.

LG Pinkston High School in Dallas, Texas was designed by Alta Architects and built by Rogers O'Brien Construction. The 226,000 square foot, 3-story DISD school houses an early college wing, a performing arts auditorium, two gymnasiums that also serve as community storm shelters, indoor and outdoor dining, and full athletic fields, all of which surround a large central courtyard where performances and outdoor classes can take place. It features various green technologies developed through consultation with a climatologist.

One of the highlights of the space is the Youth and Family Center which is run in cooperation with Parkland Hospital providing health and social resources to the community of Dallas. The design of the school was inspired by the 101-year-old Cuban-American painter Carmen Herrera. It brings a language of color and strong lines, highlighting the colors and identity of the school and its Viking mascot.

Additional consultants on the project were Pape-Dawson Engineers, Datum-Rios, KAI, WJHW, and JMK Consulting.

Exploring the Benefits of Smart Irrigation Companies for Modern Lawns

Modern homeowners are always on the lookout for ways to keep their lawns lush and healthy while also being mindful of water usage. One of the most effective solutions to this irrigation installation challenge is smart irrigation systems. These advanced systems are revolutionizing how we think about landscaping and outdoor maintenance. In this article, we'll dive deep into the benefits of partnering with smart irrigation companies for your modern lawn needs.

Exploring the Benefits of Smart Irrigation Companies for Modern Lawns

Smart irrigation companies specialize in developing and implementing advanced sprinkler systems that optimize water usage based on real-time conditions. By utilizing technology such as moisture sensors and weather forecasts, these systems ensure that lawns receive just the right amount of water.

The benefits go beyond just saving water; they also lead to healthier plants, reduced maintenance costs, and a greener environment. Homeowners no longer have https://clear-water-irrigation-and-drainage-101.weebly.com/blog/spotlight-on-jacksonvilles-leading-sprinkler-system-installers to rely solely on timers or manual watering methods, making yard sprinkler installation a breeze when you work with professionals.

Additionally, many residential irrigation installation companies offer tailored solutions that suit your specific lawn needs. Whether you're looking for underground sprinkler system installation or yard irrigation installation, these companies can provide expert guidance and service.

Understanding Smart Irrigation Technology What Is Smart Irrigation?

Smart irrigation is a method that utilizes various technologies to manage watering schedules and amounts effectively. It includes elements like soil moisture sensors, rain gauges, and smart controllers that adapt watering schedules based on current weather conditions.

These intelligent systems can connect to weather data sources or local climate information, ensuring that your lawn receives optimal care without wasting resources. As a result, smart irrigation companies transform traditional landscaping approaches into efficient water management strategies.

How Does it Work?

At its core, smart irrigation technology operates through sensors placed throughout your yard. These sensors monitor soil moisture levels and relay this data back to a central controller. If the soil reaches a certain dryness threshold, the system activates automatically—no need for manual intervention!

For example, if it rains unexpectedly, these systems will adjust by skipping scheduled watering cycles. This adaptability not only conserves water but also ensures your grass stays healthy year-round.

Choosing the Right Smart Irrigation Company Factors to Consider

When searching for sprinkler irrigation services or lawn irrigation contractors, consider several factors:

Reputation: Look up reviews and testimonials from previous clients. Experience: A company with years of experience will likely provide better service. Technology Used: Ensure they utilize state-of-the-art equipment. Customer Support: A responsive team can make all the difference in service continuity. Range of Services: From yard sprinkler installation to sprinkler system replacement, a versatile company can handle various needs.

Dab Rigs 101: Your Complete Guide to Mastering the Art of Dabbing

So, you’ve heard about dab rigs, maybe seen one in action, and now you’re curious. Whether you’re new to concentrates or just want to refine your dabbing game, you’ve come to the right place. This guide breaks down everything you need to know about dab rigs—what they are, how to use them, and how to pick the perfect one for you. No fluff, no unnecessary jargon—just straight-up useful info.

Let’s dive in.

What is a Dab Rig, Anyway?

At its core, a dab rig is a type of water pipe designed specifically for vaporizing cannabis concentrates like wax, shatter, or oil. If you’re familiar with bongs, you’ll notice some similarities—but dab rigs are optimized for concentrates, offering cleaner, smoother, and more flavorful hits.

Here’s a quick breakdown of the key parts of a dab rig:

The Rig Itself: The main body, usually made of glass, holds water for cooling vapor.

The Nail or Banger: The heated surface where you place your concentrate. Quartz is the most popular option for flavor.

A Torch or E-Nail: You’ll need a heat source to warm up your banger or nail.

A Dab Tool: A little metal or glass tool used to handle sticky concentrates.

A Carb Cap: A lid for your banger that helps control airflow and maximize vapor production.

It might seem like a lot of pieces, but once you get the hang of it, it’s pretty straightforward.

Why Choose a Dab Rig Over a Bong or Pipe?

You might be wondering, “Why can’t I just use my regular bong for concentrates?” Technically, you could, but you’d be missing out on the full experience. Here’s why dab rigs shine:

Potency: Concentrates are significantly stronger than flower. A small dab can deliver a powerful effect.

Flavor: Dabbing preserves the terpenes (the compounds responsible for flavor and aroma) better than combustion.

Efficiency: You use less material to get the same—or even stronger—effect.

Smooth Hits: The vapor is filtered through water, making it less harsh on your throat and lungs.

Simply put: if you’re using concentrates, a dab rig is the best tool for the job.

The Different Types of Dab Rigs

When shopping for a dab rig, you’ll notice there’s no shortage of options. Here are the main types:

1. Classic Dab Rigs

These traditional glass rigs are sturdy and reliable. They’re ideal for home use and deliver smooth, consistent hits.

2. Mini Dab Rigs

Smaller, more portable versions of classic rigs. They’re great for travel or if you want something compact.

3. Recycler Dab Rigs

These rigs feature a unique design where water is continuously cycled through chambers, giving you an ultra-smooth hit.

4. E-Rigs

Electronic rigs ditch the torch and use precise temperature controls. They’re user-friendly and perfect for beginners.

5. Silicone Dab Rigs

Durable and easy to clean, these rigs are practically unbreakable. They’re a solid choice for clumsy hands or outdoor adventures.

What You’ll Need to Start Dabbing

Before you jump in, make sure you have all the essentials:

Dab Rig: Choose one that fits your style and budget.

Quartz Banger or Nail: Quartz is preferred for flavor, but ceramic and titanium are also solid options.

Torch or E-Nail: A butane torch is standard, but e-nails offer more control.

Dab Tool: To handle concentrates without making a sticky mess.

Carb Cap: Essential for controlling airflow and ensuring even vaporization.

How to Use a Dab Rig (Step-by-Step Guide)

Using a dab rig might seem complex at first, but it’s easy once you break it down:

Add Water to the Rig: Fill the chamber until the water covers the percolator.

Heat the Banger: Use your torch to heat the banger until it’s glowing red. Then, let it cool for about 30–60 seconds.

Prepare Your Dab: Use your dab tool to grab a small amount of concentrate. Start small—you can always add more.

Apply the Dab: Place your concentrate onto the banger while inhaling slowly.

Cap It: Cover the banger with your carb cap to trap heat and control airflow.

Inhale and Enjoy: Take a slow, steady inhale and savor the flavor.

Pro Tip: Clean your banger after each session with a cotton swab and a little isopropyl alcohol to keep it fresh.

How to Clean and Maintain Your Dab Rig

A clean rig equals better flavor and smoother hits. Here’s how to keep yours in top shape:

Daily Maintenance: After each session, use a cotton swab to wipe your banger clean.

Deep Cleaning: Soak your rig in isopropyl alcohol and salt. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.

Change the Water Regularly: Don’t let dirty water sit in your rig—it ruins the experience.

Inspect for Cracks: Replace worn-out or cracked bangers and nails.

Finding the Perfect Dab Rig for You

Choosing a rig comes down to your needs and preferences. Here’s what to consider:

Budget: Rigs range from affordable to high-end. Set a price range before shopping.

Portability: If you’re on the move, go for a mini or silicone rig.

Ease of Use: E-rigs are beginner-friendly, while traditional rigs require more hands-on effort.

Aesthetics: You want something that looks cool, right? Don’t underestimate the joy of a visually appealing rig.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Let’s save you some headaches:

Overheating the Banger: Too hot, and you’ll burn your concentrate, ruining the flavor.

Using Too Much Concentrate: Start small—a little goes a long way.

Skipping Cleaning: Dirty rigs and bangers equal bad flavor.

Cheap Tools: Invest in a good torch, a quality banger, and a reliable rig.

Level Up Your Dabbing Game with Accessories

Want to take things to the next level? Check these out:

Terp Pearls: Help evenly distribute heat.

Quartz Inserts: Protect your banger and keep hits consistent.

Directional Carb Caps: Maximize vapor production.

Final Thoughts

Dab rigs might seem intimidating at first, but once you get the hang of them, they’re incredibly rewarding. Whether you’re chasing flavor, smoothness, or just a more efficient way to enjoy your concentrates, a dab rig delivers.

Start small, experiment, and most importantly—enjoy the process.

Happy dabbing!

Dating 101

The Dating Game: A Refresher Course

Dating is an inevitable part of life, and it's never easy. There are endless possibilities, from the awkward first date to the ultimate celebration after a successful marriage proposal. But while there's no denying that dating can be exciting and fun, there are also countless challenges that arise along the way.

In this post, we're going to delve into the basics of modern dating, from the types of profiles people create on apps like Tinder or Bumble to the best ways to handle red flags and keep things fresh in the long run. But first, let's take a moment to remind ourselves why we all love dating in the first place.

Date Night: The Ultimate Celebration

Dating is a celebration of love and commitment. Whether you're just starting out or on your fifth (or sixth) date in a year, there's always something to look forward to. For one thing, it's a great way to spend quality time with someone else, even if it's only for an hour or two. And while it can be intimidating to talk about dating and getting to know each other, there are several reasons why this is actually a pretty easy process.

Firstly, people are naturally drawn to each other in this way. We've all heard the story of how the ducks landed on that rocky island: "Hey, I saw some ducks! Can you explain what they do? Are there any predators? Who's in charge here?"

Secondly, people are drawn to the idea of exploring new places and trying new things. Whether it's a fancy restaurant or an outdoor adventure, dating is about expanding your horizons and finding something that you both enjoy.

And thirdly, there's always the possibility of a long-term relationship to look forward to. The fact is, most people aren't here for just one date. They want something more than just a quick hookup or an evening spent catching up on old times. By the end of the night, you're both going to be looking back on it with fondness and excitement.

Of course, there are also challenges involved in dating, especially if you're someone who's not used to this type of social interaction. But as long as you approach it with a positive mindset and a willingness to learn from others, you'll be able to navigate these obstacles without too much difficulty.

The Art of the First Date: A New Way To Approach Dating

Okay, so we've already covered what goes into dating, but sometimes you just want to make it a little easier on yourself. Sometimes, all you need is someone to take you out for a drink or a night out at a fancy restaurant. But if you're feeling a little unsure about where to start, there are several things to consider when it comes to the first date.

Firstly, be sure to dress professionally. This isn't just because people usually like having someone in their company who's polished and well-groomed; it also helps to establish a connection between you and the other person. Avoid anything too overtly casual, but don't be afraid to wear something that's a little bit more formal than what you're used to seeing.

Secondly, make sure that you're doing something that interests the other person. You might choose an outdoor activity like hiking or fishing, or you might opt for a spa appointment or a nice dinner at a fancy restaurant. Make sure that there's some thing in common that you're both interested in, whether it be a shared love of nature or a particular dish.

Finally, don't be afraid to ask questions. You might find that this person has a few things they want to share with you, or that they have a few things they might want to talk about before committing to anything serious. Don't be afraid to make small talk and get into the conversation at all times, because that will show that you're open to discussing whatever topic is relevant for that particular night.

The Art of Dating: A Few Tips From Experience

Before we dive into the specifics, let's take a moment to talk about some common pitfalls that people tend to fall into when it comes to dating. Firstly, don't be afraid to reassess your priorities if you find yourself going on too many dates at once. Not everyone is in the mood for a lengthy relationship, and not every person who's interested in you will make it clear that they're serious about things like marriage or commitment.

Secondly, be careful about who you choose to spend time with. Sometimes people get caught up in the hype of the first date, and end up making decisions based on what they think the other person might be looking for. If you feel that way, don't be afraid to ask some questions and come up with a better idea of what you both want from this relationship.

Thirdly, make sure that you take care of yourself. Sometimes people get so caught up in the idea of dating that they forget to prioritize their own needs. This can lead to burnout or other issues down the line. Make sure that you're taking care of yourself by getting enough sleep, eating well, and exercising regularly.

Fourthly, be prepared for rejection. It happens all the time in dating, so don't beat yourself up if someone doesn't seem to like you back. Instead, try to approach things with a positive mindset and an open attitude towards new experiences.

The Art of Dating: The Ultimate Celebration

Now let's take a moment to talk about the ultimate celebration that dating can be: the wedding. This is where you get to make all the decisions, including whether or not you want to have a big bash that lasts for days on end. But it's also worth considering the possibility of a smaller gathering. A quiet dinner at home with your loved one might be a better way to celebrate this milestone in your relationship.

Lastly, be sure to follow up after the wedding or any other celebration. The last thing you want is for people to walk away feeling like they have nothing in common with you. Follow up with some friendly questions about things that are on your mind and get to know each other better over time.

In Conclusion: A Refresher Course

So there you go, a quick refresher course on dating and the art of dating. Remember, this is all based on the premise that people are naturally drawn to one another in ways that we don't always understand. But with some common sense, a positive attitude, and a willingness to learn, everyone can find success in the world of love.
