HAIRY GREEKS

It was meant to have been a romantic holiday in Greece in a small fishing village, just Nick and his boyfriend Ron. But with days to go Nick was dumped. It was either cancel the holiday and lose all the money or just go for it and have a holiday on his own with some sun and sea. Nick decided better to get away rather than moping at home. Anyway Ron had been good fun but the sex had only ever been OK. He was probably best out of it he thought to himself as the plane landed in full sun and he could see the sea sparkling below the aircraft window.

The local bus arrived in the village where there were only a couple of tavernas and a local general shop  but it had character and he could see a couple of fishing boats moored up in the small harbour. His B&B was small and charming and he thought that Ron would probably have turned up his nose at the simplicity.

‘Fine for me and anyway I will be out in the sun most of the time,’ thought Nick.

He wandered down to the harbour and saw on one boat, three fishermen mending their nets, all wearing cut off denim shorts. They were about the same age as Nick but looked liked bronzed Adonis. Strong muscular tanned chests covered in thick black hair, their legs very hairy. They all had beards and strong wavy black hair.

‘Christ,’ thought Nick,’ in London they’d have everyone in the bars clambering over to get to them. Shit hot.’

Just looking at them Nick could  feel his cock growing in his shorts. One of the guys turned and Nick was riveted by how hairy his back also was, the hair vanishing into the crack he could see the top of off his arse..

They must have been aware that Nick was staring as they turned and waved at him. Nick sheepishly waved back and quickly turned round as when he looked down at his shorts he could see the outline of his hard cock, stretched across the front of his shorts.

As he quickly walked back to his room he let his T shirt fall over his bulge. His stiff prick would not go down as he kept thinking of those 3 Greek gods and all that black hair from the top of their head to the inside of their shorts. The moment he got into his room the pressure to cum had caused a small stain on his shorts. He undid the zip and forced out his long hard cock. 

‘Shit I never felt as horny as this with Ron’ he said looking down at his cock, the foreskin having eased back to show his gleaming head with the precum just beginning to ooze out the tip.

Letting his shorts drop to the floor he placed his hand firmly around his shaft, he could feel it throbbing as he closed his eyes and thought of the 3 hairy Greek fishermen. He imagined what large cocks they might have and how much he would like to suck them. He thought of himself with hardly a hair on his chest as being like them with a thick mat of hair, a full beard, having dark back hair that went down and covered his bum. The more he imagined these 3 men the more he thought of himself as being hairy. He rubbed his hand quicker and quicker up the full length of his shaft arching his back so his erect cock was almost vertical. With his other hand he massaged his nipples, sending a wave of electricity through his body down to his cock. 

‘Let me suck you guys’ he shouted as with one final rub of his hand , and breathing deeply his cock erupted thick white cum across the floor.

‘Fuck that is the best wank I have ever had. Being here on my own is not so bad when I have these guys to look at.’

He knew he could not stay away from the harbour and the next day he arrived just as the boat was being tied up and the three guys were in their rubber and plastic fishing gear.

‘Christ they must be sweating in all that with this heat’, he thought, thinking of their wet armpits, and body odour.. He was sitting far enough away so not to attract much attention but them he saw one of them beckon him over. Not sure if it was him they wanted he looked around but realised it was in fact him. As he walked over the guys were stripping off and hanging up their gear. All three were in their underwear, all white, and brief and as he approached he could see all their bulges and thick black pubes

‘You alone?’ the head one shouted

‘Er yes’

‘You come on board. We see you looking at us. On holiday?’

‘Yes’

‘Good. Come on and we play cards. I am Elias. The others Dimitri and Georgio.’

As he said this so Nick saw he gave his crotch just a light grope.

‘Good we play cards and drink beer. You like? We go inside’.

Nick got on board and the 4 went into the cabin where he could smell the heat and sweat of the 3 guys. Having worn the rubber gear they had sweat running down their chests which gleamed, with drops of sweat from their nipples. Even the band of their underwear was soaked in sweat. He noticed closer at hand that their underwear had large piss stains, the piss now moist.

‘You sit at table and we play. You like a beer?’

‘Yes please.’

The three fishermen sat around the table so Nick was able to see all their hairy chests, their thick forearms, their large hairy hands, hair on their chest rising up to meet their beards and in the case of Elias the hair stood out on his shoulders. Elias had his hair scraped back into a pony tail the other two looked like shaggy dogs, their curly hair tumbling down over the foreheads.

‘This is good for cards. 4 of us. ‘Georgio said ‘better four men together’

Nick could feel his cock stirring under the table as he looked around him.

As Elias rubbed his hand over his chest to smear the sweat, he looked at Nick and said.

‘You only one wearing shirt. I think you take off.’

Nick felt very self conscious but took his shirt off to reveal his hairless chest. It was in good condition but not a hair to be seen.

‘You guys have no hair, eh?’

‘Sorry. I have always wanted to have a hairy chest like you but it’s not happening. I can’t even grow a proper beard’

Elias stretched across and touched Nick’s chin. He thought he would have an orgasm there and then

‘Yes you very smooth. All men should have beards. More manly.’

Elias could see Nick looked a bit embarrassed so said

‘Lets start playing cards’

Not quite sure of the game they were playing he kept losing but the beer continued to flow and he felt more and more relaxed with them. Most of the time they spoke Greek and Nick wished he could speak the language.

Eventually Dimitri put his cards down and said’ I think we finish, but the loser needs to pay, ‘his eyes glinting at Nick

‘Yes’ Elias said, ‘Nick you need to pay as you lose’

‘I’m sorry but I don’t have much money on me. How much are you wanting?’

‘We not want money. You go under table to pay.’

Not sure what he was meant to do Nick slipped under the table waiting to be told.

There was nothing to tell. As Nick got under the table so the three fishermen took down their stained underwear and as they did so three large dark brown cocks sprang up almost hitting the underside of the table.

‘Shit’ thought Nick, ‘it’s like cruising in a public toilet which I love, seeing a guy slipping his wet erect cock through a hole. Now I have three to work on at  the same time. All thick sticking out of a forest and black pubes.’ 

Georgio and Dimitri had started stroking the length of their shaft but Elias put his hand under the table and pointed to his hard dick.

‘I am first’ he said from above.

Nick put his hand around the shaft and brought his mouth to the tip of the cock. He could almost taste the sea water as he ran his tongue around the pulsating head. As the saliva built up in his mouth he moved the wide open mouth further in so it then covered the head. He wanted Elias to enjoy being sucking by a hairless guy and know he could suck as well as any of them. Nick moved his hand further up the shaft as his mouth moved further so he could start taking the full thick shaft down his throat. He wanted to gag with the size of the cock but knowing there were two other cocks to service he wanted to take them all. Elias put his large hands under the table and took hold of Nick’s head

‘You take all boy. All the way down.’

He drew Nick’s head further and further up the full length of his dick and Nick could feel it slipping further and further back and as it did the taste of sea water started to be mixed with precum.

Nick could feel Elias start to groan and as he furiously sucked the cock and let his hand doing some wanking the groaning grew.

‘Fuck, Nick I come, take all’

And with that Elias unloaded his spunk in fast thick waves down Nick’s throat, so much that he could not swallow all the salty white cum, Some oozed out from his mouth and as he drew his mouth out, Elias was not finished, another heavy line of cum shot across Nick’s face, the cum running down his nose and cheeks.

‘Now me,’ Georgio said. ‘I wank while I wait for you but you take all from me now.’

As if on auto Nick moved round to face Georgio’s cock almost covered with his hand from stroking. Nick lifted the hand away and moved his mouth in. He was now hungry for cock. Georgio’s was slightly smaller but if anything more wide . Sucking Elias had allowed his mouth to prepare for almost any dick size. Because his mouth was still full of Elias’s cum it made it easier to let the full cock slide down the back of his mouth and then he started gobbling, moving his head back and forth almost allowing the cock to come just to the edge of the head before thrusting back in again. Nick grabbed Georgio’s thighs so he could balance and allow his mind to concentrate to getting Georgio to cum. He wanted cum everywhere, down his throat across his face and eyes and down his chest.

‘Shit man you suck great, I cum take it all I have much cum.’

Nick could feel the cock throbbing more and more and could sense the load leaving his balls and surging up the shaft into his mouth It was even thicker and saltier but there was loads and as Georgio came so Nick let his mouth slide back to have as much cum spill all over him. As Georgio leant back in his chair groaning with pleasure so Dimitri shouted

‘Hey man you keep best for last so suck me now.’

Dimitri waved his long cock in front of Nick’s face

‘Take it’, he shouted

But Nick was already in position grabbing the big shaft and taking it into his mouth. Now he had the mix of 2 loads of cum and his saliva to let the cock in and move down the back of his throat. Dimitri had wanked while watching the effect of Nick’s blowjob on his two mates and was already so worked up knowing what Nick was doing under the table.

‘Fuck man you make me so horny I am ready to shoot all into you’

Nick wanted every last drop of his third blow job. And stopped for a second to say

‘Shoot man’ before covering his mouth over the bulging head.

‘I cum, take it all’ and with that Dimitri spewed out thick white cum into Nick’s mouth and down his chin.

As Dimitri came Nick who had been building up his own cum did not even need to wank himself. It happened simultaneously . he was so worked up he needed to off load and his spunk sprayed across the legs of the me,

Elias said ‘You pay us well young hairless man. We not think you do so well. Batter than us. Here take this towel and clean yourself.’

Getting out from the table Nick cleaned himself and looked at his three Greek gods. ‘Shit they are amazing he thought to himself. Just as I would like to be.’

‘Maybe you come to play cards and drink beer again. Make sure you always lose. Now you go as we must sail to catch fish. See you soon hairless one.’

Nick stumbled back to his apartment hardly able to believe that he had just sucked off three hairy Greek men. He just knew he wanted all their spunk as swallowing it might make him a bit more like them. He looked at his body and though in good shape he had no body or facial hair no deep tan . Christ he wanted to be the fourth Greek with them.

‘No point in wishing’ he murmured to himself.

The next day all he wanted was to get back to the boat and see the guys again. He did not know if they would want a repeat but his whole body was ready for action and his cock was semi hard as he walked down to the port. Elias was on board in his waterproof trousers, his upper body bare and shining with sweat, the hair matted against his broad tanned chest.. He waved Nick over to come on board.

‘I thought you come back my friend. I think you liked yesterday. You suck well and you like our spunk.’

‘Yes ‘replied Nick. Y’ou are all amazing and when I look at the three of you I wish to could look like you, all tanned, dark  and hairy.’

‘We need another man but must be a real Greek.’

‘So not me?’ Nick joked

‘Who knows,’ Elias smiled back.’I think much of last night and every time I get hard.’

As he said this he put his hand down to rub the waterproof crotch.

Nick could see it was tenting inside the rubber trousers.

‘My cock become hot inside the rubber, I need to take out so you come inside with me.’

Seeing the bulge in the rubber had Nicks cock at full length forming his own good sized bulge in his shorts.

‘Last night you suck today I fuck you. Just you and me, the others away. ‘Elias turned Nick round and brought his hands round to unzip the shorts and roughly pull down the shorts and pants together.

‘You got good arse. I like hairy bum but smooth OK for now.’

He pressed himself against Nick and he could feel Elias’s cock encased in the rubber tight against him. The feel of the rubber with the cock inside sent a shiver through Nick. He wanted that cock out of the rubber and into his arse. He could feel the sweaty hairy chest rub against his back and Elias’s bearded face nuzzle into his neck.

Taking one hand away from Nicks front but leaving the other grasping his shaft he undid the rubber trousers. Nick could feel that it was difficult to ease the cock out and felt Elias groan as it sprang out against Nick’s arse.

Nick could feel the hand going up to his mouth to smear and large gob of spit that he then rubbed along the length of his cock.

‘You bend over table. You like table I think. Last night you suck below and today I fuck you on.’

Nick ached to feel the cock he had sucked inside him. With his spare hand Elias widened his cheeks pushing his cock into the crack. Nick could feel the head searching for the hole which was now moist and waiting. Suddenly the cock and hole met and Nick pushed his arse out to take the head. As the cock entered so Nick let out a groan of pain.

‘Christ you are big Elias’

‘I take time for now, so you have it all. Relax you will like when all inside you’

As Nick breathed deeply his whole body yearned to have the Greek inside him up to the hilt and even beyond.

‘That is better Nick , now you want my big cock .’

Nick pushed his arse out further as Elias leant further into Nick his cock now sliding up a welcoming hole. Suddenly Nick felt Elias’s bushy pubes against his arse and he wiggled feeling their power and coarseness.

With his cock fully up Elias took his hand up to Nicks face and turned it round so their lips met. Nick thought he would faint with the tongue searching deeply and the feeling of Elias’s thick beard against his face

‘You like my hair I think.’

‘I love your hairy body brushing against me , your pubes up against my arse and now feeling your beard almost covering my face. Fuck me man let me have all your spunk that I did not take last night.’

‘You want fuck I give you fuck.’

With that Elias moved his meaty hand down to pull Nick into him around his waist. ‘Now I ram you.’

Nick kept pushing his arse back every time Elias pulled his cock partially out, wanting to feel if right up him.

‘Now you get quick cock. No relax time. Let me take your cock you come at same time as I explode

Elias now worked Nick’s shaft roughly with his hard hands jerking at the shaft as he rammed his cock in and out at quickening speed. Nick groaned louder and louder as the cock was fully up him so he felt the hairy pubes as well as Elias’s sweaty body rubbing against his back

‘You have good hole Nick. Perfect for my cock’

‘Just fuck the hell out of me Elias I want to feel your spunk shooting up inside me. I want to feel a Greek inside me and so I can feel hairy like you. Fuck me man. I am ready to shoot.’

Elias could feel Nicks cock throbbing hard and the mass of precum on the tip of his cock as he wanked him hard.

‘Good we both cum’. One man shot up the arse the other a full creamy wad across the table. They both groaned with their climax and their bodies sank against one another both full of sweat.

Elias withdrew and flung the crusty towel from last night. ‘This has much cum now it has more’ he winked at Nick. Now we have a beer.

As they looked at each other Nick said ‘I have never had such good sex.’

‘Of course you have sex with Greek men. We are the best.’

‘I feel so wrong’ Nick replied. ‘I want so much to look like the three of you, be hard and muscular and especially dark and hairy. To me you are like Gods and I want to be one as well.’

‘So you really like us hairy men?’

‘You bet, ‘Nick said

‘Would you like to be a fisherman like us?’

‘If it means being with the three of you then the answer is yes. What a life. On the sea and always fucking’

‘Yes it is good life but would you like?’

‘I would more than like, I so want it. I hate my smooth body and ever since I saw you my cock is almost permanently hard, that is how much I want.’

‘Maybe you should try some of our fishing gear. You like.’

‘Well it will not make me like you but yes I will try.’

‘I think you will be surprised but let me give you something that I think you like’

Elias left the room for a minute and cam back with bib fronted rubber waders.

‘These good for fishing, waders and go up your chest. You like to try?’

The idea of wearing a rubber half suit knowing a Greek had been wearing was too much of a temptation.

‘I sure would’

‘I tell you if you try on then it is yours. You want to be Greek so I think.’

‘I do not have to think Elias. I know what I want.’

‘Good I am glad’

Nick stepped into the boot part of the waders and felt his feet a bit small and slowly he pulled up the upper section the rubber sliding up over his erect cock and the coolness of the rubber against his arse. Again it felt a bit big but the smell and feel of the rubber was all that mattered. He lifted the braces up over his shoulders and for a second felt a shiver of excitement. Suddenly the shiver changed. It was as if his body was on fire the blood rushing through every pore of his body. He felt light headed but above all hot. It was not painful in fact it felt even more exciting. His heart was beating faster. He could hardly speak. Except to say.

‘Elias I am feeling a bit different’

‘Good , now start looking at your body.’

Nick looked down at his arms. They were no longer smooth, his skin was changing colour and becoming more and more tanned and not just tanned but black hairs were sprouting fast all the way down from his shoulders, even his shoulders were covered in thick black hair. Also his arms had expanded to show large muscle and his hands looked big with dirty nails as if he had been fishing, he looked into the bib and saw his chest was also a deep tan but the black hair now spread all the way down his chest and around much larger dark brown nipples, real large, proud nips. He brought his new hands up to his face which almost felt slightly itchy. Why? He then realised that he had a thick rough beard which did not stop at his neck but continued down to meet the hair of his chest. He was a bear, seeming hairier than the three Greeks. He took his hand up to his head but his hair had gone, it was now smooth and shaved but his eyebrows were thick.

‘I’ve changed Elias. I am now even hairier than you’

‘It is what you wished for’

‘I feel amazing’

As he said this so there was another rush of blood which almost made him faint as he closed his eyes to take any pain. But there was no pain. As he opened his eyes for a few seconds he could string a few words in English but the language was leaving him. Instead he started thinking in Greek and only Greek.

‘Welcome Nicos’, Elias said. ‘Our new fisherman.’

Gone was the smooth bodied Nick, now it was the rough hairy Greek Nicos. He had wanted to look Greek but now he more than looked Greek, he was Greek. Rough and ready fisherman.

‘Before we sail, Elias there is something I want.’

‘What is that Nicos?’

‘I want your arse.’ As he said this so Nicos rubbed his hand over the rubber wader suit.

‘You can see my big cock in the rubber but I want to fuck you.’

Elias stared at the bulge. ‘Christ I have given you a big thick one.’

‘You like big and thick Elias and you can take it all.’

Nicos undid the braces and let the top fall to the top of the waders. As he did so his cock sprang out showing a heavy cock with large vein running down the length and a gleaming thick head. Great weighty balls hung low.

Elias preferred to fuck as the captain but did not want to see a cock like that go to waste. He could feel his arse itching to be opened and split by the monster which stood almost vertical from the mass of black pubes.

‘Now you bend over the table and let me spread those  big hairy cheeks of your arse.’

Nicos spread a large double gob of spit over his cock and pressed the head against Elias’s hole

‘Get ready I’ll almost split you but you will love it when in.’

With his hands keeping Elias’s hairy cheeks wide apart he pushed the head in as Elias gave a sharp gasp of pain.

‘Be a real Greek. We all fuck men and get fucked. You be a man.’

Once Elias relaxed so Nicos moved his cock further and further in.

Just at that moment the doors opened and in walked Dimitri and Georgio.

‘Fucking hell what is going on here and who is this?’

Elias looked up.’ This is Nicos who you may remember as Nick. He so wanted to be a Greek like us so this is what you see. Now he joins us on the boat’

‘Christ what a change ,you did well Elias. He is amazing. Big and rugged just what we need and I can see he has one hell of a cock’

Nicos said. ‘Yeah look at my dick but let me see yours. That will make me more horny fucking.’

He hardly needed to ask as the two men quickly unzipped after rubbing their crotches and took out their erect dicks.

‘Not bad for two Greeks. So who is going to fuck who? I want to see another fucking.’

Without hesitating Georgio grabbed and turned him round.

‘I get to fuck you Dimitri.’ 

‘As long as you fuck me and I can watch Nicos fucking Elias. Nicos fuck side on so I can see your tool slipping in and out of Elias’s arse.’

‘You do same Georgio as I love seeing cock fuck.’

It took no time for Dimitri to bend over and take Goeogio’s throbbing prick. As Georgio rammed his cock in so Dimitri started wanking his dick getting more and more excited as Nicos ‘monster of a dick slid in and out of Elias’s arse

‘Four Greek men fucking each other. This is what we have done for many years and we are the best. Good rough hairy men enjoying each other .Men fuck other men best.’

Elias had his hand over his cock now watching the way Dimitri wanked and he followed the same rhythm. Nicos had his hand around Eliass waist with his fingers digging deep into the thighs as he pushed so his grunting became stronger.

‘I want to see you all coming. All our cum spurting up bum or on table.’

‘Fuck harder Georgio, let the man have it. I fuck the life out of Elias. ‘Each man looked at all the other cocks and each one got nearer and nearer to cum

‘Fucking hell we do this every day now we are 4 .’

‘Don’t worry,’ Nicos said ‘I fuck you all with my big dick. Now let us shoot, oh fuck I’ ready.’

With that and one final push so his dick was fully into Elias and the forest of black pubes rubbed against the hairy bum, Nicos shot his load inside, Elias feeling it would almost come out of his mouth. Feeling the cock so far in was enough for Elias to orgasm across the table till his cum hit Dimitri on the other side who seeing the waves of cum shed his load across to Elias. With so much cum around and one final groan Georgio shot his spunk into Dimitri.

All four collapsed and at first smiled and then laughed.

‘I don’t know if we do much fishing now.’

‘First we fuck and then we fish.’ Nicos said

‘That is more important ‘Elias replied.

Don’t Think Twice - S.R (8/10)

Summary: Neither of you thought there were things the other was so afraid of. (Enhanced!Reader/Steve Rogers).  

Prompt: Vertigo - sensation of whirling and loss of balance, associated particularly with looking down from a great height; giddiness

A/N: This is for @until-theend-oftheline ‘s beautiful words challenge.

Feedback is always welcomed.

LET ME GO! LET ME GO!

“Hey, you okay there?” Victor’s voice drags Lawson out of whatever he had been thinking of. You’re on the other side of the room with Princess Shuri, as they try on different measures and materials to see how they reach. Lawson can smell the sizzling of different objects, but instead of moving away -- you are sitting there and taking it all in. However, the smell of melting rubber and metals don’t leave the same rancid aftertaste in the back of his throat compared to the smell of rotting, melting flesh that he had gone through once.

He feels the side of his face in thought, as green eyes keep looking at him, “She sure has changed.”

Victor lets out a good-natured laugh, “Yeah, Captain Rogers has helped quite a deal with that.”

Lawson lets out a hum, as he watches you laugh and smile just a bit with the Wakadan princess, and can’t help but wonder how a doll managed to finally gain feelings.

The Avengers that are there with you aren’t quick to enter the battered land once known as Sokovia -- their faces are too well-known and even hated in the area by some. Due to this, it was the Falcon and the Scarlet Witch that were at your side in the last place Gideon had been seen, instead of a certain blond and while that did bother you a little, both of them were friendlier than you imagined them to be.

“It’s only worse than before,” Wanda whispers to herself and as much as governments and people had done their best to rebuild Sokovia, but there were things that always fell below the cracks and things that couldn’t be stopped. Corruption was still rampant and the protest that the Maximoffs had once been part of had turned into full-on gangs and other such problems.

You wonder if your own place of birth --the place where the S.H.I.E.L.D agents had found had changed in any sort of way and wherever you would recognize it, much less feel any sort of pain towards the loss. Thinking about this person who called himself your brother sent your heart racing, you wanted to run and hide -- the world had enough monsters with him and his group around, and even more so than that.

“Stay close to me,” you hear the Falcon declare as you see his small, mechanical bird take flight to take a look around the area. Wanda moves ahead of the two of you, as you watch her move and covered in the red swirls that come with her powers -- they were completely different from you, but they still scared the hell out of people.

You wonder how she could live with it all.

“Stay close to me,” Sam remarks, turning you away from your thoughts as you give him a brief nod.

However, there was always a difference in being prepared in simulations and being actually ready and prepared on the field -- you learn that the hard way as bombs start exploding behind you and the decrepit buildings.    

Hey, hey. Can you hear me?

It is what you should be hearing over the gun smoke and fighting, but there is something else getting into your mind. The bombings and ambush had dragged you from Sam and further into the building and though some armed men had tried to take you, it quickly ended when their hands touched your open skin. You watched them burn and that’s when you heard it---

There’s a melody calling you, though you aren’t sure from where you have heard from before as you find yourself walking deeper into the maze, where the stairs meet the upper floor. There is dizziness settling into your bones as you feel yourself start heating up. You grasp your collar line in pain before slowly feeling your knees buckle before you. You’re gasping for breathing when you hear his voice -- it’s like gravel to your ears as breathing starts to become harder and harder to do so.

“Father would be so disappointed in your right now,” you look up with blurred vision to see a young man that looks younger than you, with dark-colored hair but eyes that were almost your eye color if he wasn’t looking at you with a glare. Your ears start to go out, but he keeps going on with his monologue.

From it all, you understood that Father was a man that wanted to watch the world burn, Gideon and his thousands of selves from what you could feel and see with the marking similar to yours in his hands. He was just like you, but more imperfect as you smelled the familiar smell of mercury and sulfur burning in the air.

And you hated him, yourself, and all of this so so much.

He comes closer to you his feet near your knees at you look up at him. You wonder if there is any emotion on your face because there is clearly none on his as he grabs your neck. Stone and crystal making a connection to each other that sends a freezing sensation over the burning like you’re being frozen and cooked all at the same time. You let out a silent scream, as he forces you to look at him.

“The electric sheep are dreaming up for your fate, little doll,” Gideon manages to let out, as he struggles with his own breathing. There is some type of connection going on between the two of you, as he grins. You want to say something, anything to make him stop asking why he is going too far.

But, your vision starts to blacken even more and by the end of it, you don’t notice a familiar item being thrown your way and the shout of your name.

It takes you three days to wake up. You’re stuff and disjointed for a good hour, as Victor watches over you in the quinjet on the way back to the Avengers base. You had been glowing for a good while after Captain Rogers had saved you since back-up had to be called after you were lost and the armed forces were too much for Sam and Wanda. You didn’t talk for another two as you were trying to process what had happened and the leftover information embedded in your “heart”.

Captain Rogers didn’t visit you in the aftermath and you couldn’t help but feel a little bit disappointed compared to the last time. Maybe, he understood now.

Maybe, that’s why you set out to find him once the dead of night came once more. You end up walking most of the building that you already knew and then some until you find him in one of the gyms, punching away at a poor, defenseless bag. You were starting to suspect there was more to him than he let one, but you weren’t sure whether you wanted to know what was underneath the polite and distant veneer of Captain America.

However, for now, you had come for another thing and you were certain he already knew you were near so you decided to the best with the distance between the two of you.

“I’m sorry if I disappointed you!” you scream out, as Steve stops and looks at you for a good second.

You stand there, awkward for what feels like forever as Steve grabs a towel and makes his way over to you. You wonder if this is what true embarrassment feels like as he seems bothered but also amused by your little declaration.

“There’s nothing—“

“I may be a doll, but I’m not a child, Captain Rogers,” you push forward as he watches you explain with a disgruntled look on your face, “I compromised the mission and almost got kidnapped, that isn't the best start to my on-field career.”

“Well, that means it can only get better,” Steve remarks with a small smile on his face.

You stare at him, unsure of how to go about the remark before letting out a small but stiff laugh. It seemed so unlike him to make a  joke about such a serious thing, but you are sure that there were sides many didn’t know about when it came to Steve Rogers. You were just lucky for now.

“Is your hand all right?” you ask after calming down, though you won’t admit it had been on your mind for a very long time -- you knew what your powers did to people, you had seen it on Lawson’s face every time he came and had seen it when those men had tried to take you.

“Good as can be,” Steve nods, as you can’t help but let out a small of relief. He doesn’t make of motion of whether he notices or not. Instead, he looks at you and then the equipment.

“We haven’t trained in a while,” Steve remarks as you look at the gym requirement and then your gloved hands in question, “There are also some that Shuri has been meaning to test out in regards to your ability.”

You nod at the mention of Shuri and follow the man for a night of training and trying to forget --at least for now-- what is waiting for you in regards of your “brother” and whatever else he might be doing. You even fail to notice that your hands manage to touch Steve without your gloves for a few instances here and there, as he lays you on the mat several times.

However, throughout the whole thing, you try to ignore the fact that you can feel your stones and crystal cracking.

JCB Adds First Reduced Swing Machine To X-Series Excavator Line

The 245XR is the first reduced swing model in the X-Series crawler excavator line from JCB. The new model falls into the 22-26 ton reduced swing market, with exceptional levels of operator comfort, stability, productivity, efficiency, and serviceability.

Shorter swing fits tighter spaces

At just 5 feet 8 inches, the 245XR has a tail swing 40 percent shorter than the conventional 220X, but with many of the same features, providing a highly effective excavator for use in road construction and maintenance, utility work, urban settings and other confined worksites.

The 245XR is equipped with a 9 foot, 10 inch dipper arm, for increased breakout or maximum reach. With the monoboom, this powerful machine offers a maximum digging reach of 32 feet 1 inch, with a maximum digging depth of 21 feet 9 inches. Additionally, with a choice of 24, 28 or 31 inch heavy-duty track pads, the 245XR offers exceptional stability, for digging across track and for lifting heavy loads. An optional dozer blade is offered, for maximum versatility.

Exceptional comfort

Like all JCB X-Series machines, the 245XR features a three-foot wide cab, offering 15 percent more cab space than the cab on the previous JS generation. This is the largest - and among the most quiet - cab in its class. And with a range of seating options, and exceptional standard features such as an adjustable air suspended seat with mechanical lumbar support, the 245XR delivers maximum operator comfort throughout the workday. Additionally, a deluxe seat with heating and cooling, plus electric lumbar, is available as an option.

For ease of control, updated CommandPlus switch packs sit to the right of the seat with a large 7 inch multifunction display. The X-Series cab also features 11 fully adjustable air vents, with multiple airflow modes for operator preference depending on weather conditions. There is plenty of storage around the cab, with a large space behind the operator's seat, while the rubber floor and storage area mats can be removed for easy cleaning, if necessary. Climate control, a factory-fit Bluetooth radio, window blinds, refuelling pump and a tool kit are standard while specific climate-control features to meet the demands of individual regions are available.

Powerful efficiency

The 245XR is powered by a powerful Tier 4 Final compliant JCB Ecomax 448 diesel engine delivering 173hp. For outstanding efficiency, the engine is engineered for Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) with no Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) requirement and is equipped with Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR).

The hydraulic system uses latest generation Kawasaki pumps, and a Kayaba main control valve for precise control. The hydraulic hose diameter has been increased to deliver improved flow with less resistance, boosting performance and efficiency.

Although the machine is equipped with compact rear bodywork, the 245XR features large service doors, providing easy access for routine maintenance. Wide, well-spaced steps and grab rails provide upper structure access, for increased safety. For simpler servicing and reduced downtime, air and hydraulic filter life can reach 2,000 hours, while engine oil changes are extended 500-hour intervals.

Mar 25 Day 1 – Firsts • Kitchen disasters @taakitzweek

First chapter for Taakitz week

Five unforgettable scenes from Kravitz's life with his love. Slightly AU: No Starblaster, still Reaper, still Wizards. Written for Taakitz week 2018, updating daily until the 29th.

(fears not)

Kravitz knows this is gonna be a weird one when his first foot touches down on the other side. He’s suspended for a second between the grave-silence of the astral plane, the lull of a billion souls at his back, and a disheveled, lavish parlor with a greasy sheen of necromantic energy slopped over it.

The rift hardens around him with a twang echoed by a ringing bell, goes viscous and sticky. He has to fight to get both feet on the floor before it closes up. A woman shouts and the bell quiets. Kravitz reevaluates from weird to dangerous and manifests his scythe.

“We’re in the kitchen!” someone calls in a high, familiar voice that makes Kravitz freeze.

He picks his way through the debris littering the parlor—dirty dishes, discarded clothes, nests of blankets like people have been sleeping there—and pushes the door open with his scythe.

It’s an abattoir inside. Every surface is covered in oilcloth tarps, but Kravitz can barely see them under the puddled blood. There’s a corpse open on the central table, intestines stretched and spooled on hooks overhead. Another corpse hangs upside-down on a hook over the sink, blood running down into the drain like a waterfall.

There are more corpses wrapped in shrouds and stacked like logs in the corner. This is where the necromantic energy is concentrated; Kravitz can feel eddies of magic like slick ice. Preservation spells. Bottom-tier shit, barely an infraction, but there are just so many. Not one of them raised, though.

He finally turns to the living people in the room. Normally he’d have dealt with them first, but, well. He doesn’t recognize the third—human, middle-aged, pudgy—but he’s not surprised by the bitten-off grins and glinting eyes of the two elves. Taako’s on a stool as far from the corpses as he can get it, booted feet crusted in blood and hooked up over the rungs. Lup’s at the table with the human, scalpel in her hand. She waves.

“What,” he says flatly. The twins snicker. They and their friend are in rubber ponchos and gloves pulled up past their elbows. The human avoids his gaze. The taint of necromancy is heavy on his skin, even worse than the parlor. But the few hooks it has in his soul are shallow. He sweats out his fears, hands trembling with both anxiety and fatigue. Right in front of Kravitz he starts prying the corpse’s liver free.

“That’s some sick shit,” Kravitz says. “What the fuck is wrong with the three of you?” Lup keels over and laughs helplessly into the corpse’s open chest. She’s punch-drunk with exhaustion, her hair a frizzy halo matted with sweat and grease. Neither she nor Taako wear the passage of the years on their skin. They won’t for many decades more. Kravitz isn’t used to people who know him. When even was the last time he talked to a mortal who wasn’t afraid?

Taako hops up from his stool. He shucks off his gloves before gliding over to take Kravitz’s arm. Kravitz lets his scythe vanish. “Let’s have this conversation somewhere not-gross, hun.”

Kravitz lets Taako lead him out to the parlor. Taako throws himself down in the blankets on the sofa, pats the cushion beside him, and kicks a cascade of dirty dishes off the coffee table to put his feet up. Kravitz raises an eyebrow at him.

Taako runs waves of prestidigitation up his arms and across his face.  The tickle makes him sneeze as the grime vanishes from his skin in increments. “C’mon Krav, we ain’t got all day. Haven’t you heard there’s a plague on?”

Kravitz relents and sits down stiffly at Taako’s side. Taako grins and presses against him from knee to shoulder. He barely smells like blood, thank the gods.

Taako looks up at him through his lashes. He’s got days-old eyeshadow on, smeared a deep bruise purple and mirroring the dark bags under his eyes. He’s beautiful. He catches Kravitz’s eye and grins. “You can put your skin on. The vector’s bodily fluids, you’re fine so long as you don’t lick a corpse.”

The crawl of flesh over his bones unnerves Kravitz. He doesn’t do this often. The room dims and softens through the filter of physical eyes. Everything around him, though—the heat rolling off Taako’s body, the velvety crinkle of the cushions beneath them—that intensifies. Kravitz finds that Taako actually smells quite a bit like blood, and like stale sweat and fatigue and greasy food besides.

He also smells like himself. Kravitz has to turn a deep inhale into a discreet cough. “I hadn’t planned on getting as up-close and personal with corpses as you all have been. If this is what medical science is like then I would’ve been happier not knowing.”

“You’re telling me with a straight face that you, the Grim-fuckin’-Reaper, don’t slay corpses on the reg?”

“Zombies aren’t that juicy, Taako.”

Taako cracks up and fists a hand in Kravitz’s vest. Every single one of his knuckles burns like a brand, fizzles like electricity. It is suddenly very, very warm in the parlor.

It’s high summer. Kravitz knew this. He’s been busy in the area for weeks now. Necromantic activity surges after any disaster. Grief, despair, instability—a boiling cauldron of need and regret. He never used to understand why mortals would feel driven by all that to defy the peace of death. Looking at Taako, though—at the banked fear in his eyes, his tongue slipping out to wet cracked lips—he thinks he gets it. His face is mirrored in his sister’s, and they spent their youths clawing for every breath they drew.

They’re different. They’ve grown into their skin. Taako’s fingers aren’t wire-thin anymore, and his eyes are bright even through the fug of exhaustion. His hair’s thick and healthy underneath the grease, pulled up around his head in a burnished crown of braids. Taako’s watching Kravitz’s mouth, so he swallows hard and speaks.

“Tell me what you’ve found out about the plague. Assuming that is what you’re doing—you’re not just chopping corpses up for fun, right?”

Taako giggles. The tips of his ears flick, and he launches into an explanation about viruses and liver failure that uses words like cirrhosis and cholestasis and atresia. He says four times that it’s his sister’s project, her and her crush, and that he wouldn’t dissect a corpse for an entire boatload of gold. But he’s clearly been paying attention. And Kravitz knows Taako would do a lot worse for a lot less.

The twins are so much stronger now. Kravitz thinks it must be hope that has them staying in a dying city, doing their best to help. He’d thought they might be brilliant. Taako talks with his hands and laughs brightly—this plague is one of many tragedies to him, and he’s learned something like happiness despite it. Kravitz isn’t sure how much of that’s because the twins have a solid roof over their heads and the support of the human in the kitchen.  He remembers Taako’s intensity; this vibrancy is a new look for him, and it’s breathtaking.

“I just killed a necromancer,” Kravitz says, when Taako’s story peters out. Taako’s moved his hand down to Kravitz’s thigh. That’s all Kravitz has been thinking about for minutes—he hasn’t learned a damn thing about medicine.

“We the bottom of your list, bubbeleh?”

“The very bottom. What’s Hallwinter’s deal, though?”

“Hallwinter? Gods, the man has us calling him Bluejeans,” Taako wheezes. No response from the kitchen. They can’t hear Lup and Barry—not their conversation, not the squelch of offal between their fingers. “He’s some university professor-type givin’ Lup magic lessons. And now anatomy, I guess. But not in the sexy way. She loved his thesis. He’s gone on her, it’s adorable.”

“He’s walking a dangerous line, Taako,” Kravitz says. He’s doing everything he can to ignore the magic permeating Barry’s house. He wants to focus on the rise and fall of Taako’s chest, on the curve of his smile. “I know of zero cases of ‘academic’ necromancy that didn’t end in tragedy.”

“Well of course you don’t,” Taako says, rolling his eyes. “Tragedy’s your whole schtick. Tell me this isn’t the longest you’ve ever just hung out.”

It’s not. It’s the second longest in several centuries, and Taako was there for the first as well. Kravitz doesn’t say that. The scratch of Taako’s chipped nails over the fabric of his suit has become unpleasant, so he captures Taako’s hand in his and squeezes it.

“Whoof, that’s a clammy one!” Taako says in a tone of pure delight. “Oh my gods you’re cold. Hold still.”

Taako steals Kravitz’s hand and presses it to his brow. His face is unbelievably hot. A pang of fear squeezes something in Kravitz’s chest. “You’re not running a fever, are you?”

“No-pe” Taako says, popping the p. “That was our first success—we’ve got a diagnostic spell now. Me ‘n Lup ‘n Barold are all squeaky-clean. You’re gonna be out of work in short order.”

“Sounds good to me,” Kravitz says. He trails fingertips down Taako’s cheek. Taako gives him a wolfish look and presses his face into Kravitz’s.

“Hey,” he says, breath puffing against Kravitz’s lips.

Kravitz pauses. Watches the light filter through Taako’s hair. “…Hey?”

Taako shifts back and levels a look at him. “Kravitz. I am flirting with you. Take a fuckin’ hint.”

The laugh bubbling in Kravitz’s throat catches him by surprise. He doesn’t know how Taako manages to do that to him. He loves it. He pulls Taako down on top of him and they both giggle helplessly, chests heaving against each other. Even after he catches his breath there’s still something moving under his ribs, steady and insistent.

“Can I kiss you?” Taako sing-songs against his neck.  Kravitz has been asked this by him exactly once before, and he’d said no. He’d wondered afterwards for so, so long.

“Yes,” he says this time.

He doesn’t get to lecture Lup and Barry on necromancy. They have more than enough time to clean up and dispel everything. Kravitz spends the evening drinking in the feel of Taako’s lips against his, the scent of his skin and hair. It’s a first for him, and, like all firsts with Taako, he’s left yearning for more.

There Will Come Soft Rains

Ray Bradbury (1950)

In the living room the voice-clock sang, Tick-tock, seven o'clock, time to get up, time to get up, seven o 'clock! as if it were afraid that nobody would. The morning house lay empty. The clock ticked on, repeating and repeating its sounds into the emptiness. Seven-nine, breakfast time, seven-nine!

In the kitchen the breakfast stove gave a hissing sigh and ejected from its warm interior eight pieces of perfectly browned toast, eight eggs sunny side up, sixteen slices of bacon, two coffees, and two cool glasses of milk.

"Today is August 4, 2026," said a second voice from the kitchen ceiling, "in the city of Allendale, California." It repeated the date three times for memory's sake. "Today is Mr. Featherstone's birthday. Today is the anniversary of Tilita's marriage. Insurance is payable, as are the water, gas, and light bills."

Somewhere in the walls, relays clicked, memory tapes glided under electric eyes.

Eight-one, tick-tock, eight-one o'clock, off to school, off to work, run, run, eight-one! But no doors slammed, no carpets took the soft tread of rubber heels. It was raining outside. The weather box on the front door sang quietly: "Rain, rain, go away; umbrellas, raincoats for today..." And the rain tapped on the empty house, echoing.

Outside, the garage chimed and lifted its door to reveal the waiting car. After a long wait the door swung down again.

At eight-thirty the eggs were shrivelled and the toast was like stone. An aluminium wedge scraped them into the sink, where hot water whirled them down a metal throat which digested and flushed them away to the distant sea. The dirty dishes were dropped into a hot washer and emerged twinkling dry.

Nine-fifteen, sang the clock, time to clean.

Out of warrens in the wall, tiny robot mice darted. The rooms were a crawl with the small cleaning animals, all rubber and metal. They thudded against chairs, whirling their moustached runners, kneading the rug nap, sucking gently at hidden dust. Then, like mysterious invaders, they popped into their burrows. Their pink electric eyes faded. The house was clean.

Ten o'clock. The sun came out from behind the rain. The house stood alone in a city of rubble and ashes. This was the one house left standing. At night the ruined city gave off a radioactive glow which could be seen for miles.

Ten-fifteen. The garden sprinklers whirled up in golden founts, filling the soft morning air with scatterings of brightness. The water pelted window panes, running down the charred west side where the house had been burned, evenly free of its white paint. The entire west face of the house was black, save for five places. Here the silhouette in paint of a man mowing a lawn. Here, as in a photograph, a woman bent to pick flowers. Still farther over, their images burned on wood in one titanic instant, a small boy, hands flung into the air; higher up, the image of a thrown ball, and opposite him a girl, hands raised to catch a ball which never came down.

The five spots of paint - the man, the woman, the children, the ball - remained. The rest was a thin charcoaled layer.

The gentle sprinkler rain filled the garden with falling light.

Until this day, how well the house had kept its peace. How carefully it had inquired, "Who goes there? What's the password?" and, getting no answer from lonely foxes and whining cats, it had shut up its windows and drawn shades in an old-maidenly preoccupation with self-protection which bordered on a mechanical paranoia.

It quivered at each sound, the house did. If a sparrow brushed a window, the shade snapped up. The bird, startled, flew off! No, not even a bird must touch the house!

Twelve noon.

A dog whined, shivering, on the front porch.

The front door recognized the dog voice and opened. The dog, once huge and fleshy, but now gone to bone and covered with sores, moved in and through the house, tracking mud. Behind it whirred angry mice, angry at having to pick up mud, angry at inconvenience.

For not a leaf fragment blew under the door but what the wall panels flipped open and the copper scrap rats flashed swiftly out. The offending dust, hair, or paper, seized in miniature steel jaws, was raced back to the burrows. There, down tubes which fed into the cellar, it was dropped into the sighing vent of an incinerator which sat like evil Baal in a dark corner.

The dog ran upstairs, hysterically yelping to each door, at last realizing, as the house realized, that only silence was here.

It sniffed the air and scratched the kitchen door. Behind the door, the stove was making pancakes which filled the house with a rich baked odour and the scent of maple syrup.

The dog frothed at the mouth, lying at the door, sniffing, its eyes turned to fire. It ran wildly in circles, biting at its tail, spun in a frenzy, and died. It lay in the parlor for an hour.

Two o'clock, sang a voice.

Delicately sensing decay at last, the regiments of mice hummed out as softly as blown gray leaves in an electrical wind.

Two-fifteen.

The dog was gone.

In the cellar, the incinerator glowed suddenly and a whirl of sparks leaped up the chimney.

Two thirty-five.

Bridge tables sprouted from patio walls. Playing cards fluttered onto pads in a shower of pips. Martinis manifested on an oaken bench with egg-salad sandwiches. Music played.

But the tables were silent and the cards untouched.

At four o'clock the tables folded like great butterflies back through the paneled walls .

Four-thirty.

The nursery walls glowed.

Animals took shape: yellow giraffes, blue lions, pink antelopes, lilac panthers cavorting in crystal substance. The walls were glass. They looked out upon color and fantasy. Hidden films clocked through well-oiled sprockets, and the walls lived. The nursery floor was woven to resemble a crisp, cereal meadow. Over this ran aluminum roaches and iron crickets, and in the hot still air butterflies of delicate red tissue wavered among the sharp aroma of animal spoors! There was the sound like a great matted yellow hive of bees within a dark bellows, the lazy bumble of a purring lion. And there was the patter of okapi feet and the murmur of a fresh jungle rain, like other hoofs, falling upon the summer-starched grass. Now the walls dissolved into distances of parched grass, mile on mile, and warm endless sky. The animals drew away into thorn brakes and water holes. It was the children's hour.

Five o'clock. The bath filled with clear hot water.

Six, seven, eight o'clock. The dinner dishes manipulated like magic tricks, and in the study a click. In the metal stand opposite the hearth where a fire now blazed up warmly, a cigar popped out, half an inch of soft gray ash on it, smoking, waiting.

Nine o'clock. The beds warmed their hidden circuits, for nights were cool here.

Nine-five. A voice spoke from the study ceiling: "Mrs. McClellan, which poem would you like this evening?" The house was silent.

The voice said at last, "Since you express no preference, I shall select a poem at random." Quiet music rose to back the voice. "Sara Teasdale. As I recall, your favourite...

There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,

And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;

And frogs in the pools singing at night,

And wild plum trees in tremulous white;

Robins will wear their feathery fire,

Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;

And not one will know of the war, not one

Will care at last when it is done.

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree,

If mankind perished utterly;

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn

Would scarcely know that we were gone."

The fire burned on the stone hearth and the cigar fell away into a mound of quiet ash on its tray. The empty chairs faced each other between the silent walls, and the music played.

At ten o'clock the house began to die.

The wind blew. A falling tree bough crashed through the kitchen window. Cleaning solvent, bottled, shattered over the stove. The room was ablaze in an instant!

"Fire!" screamed a voice. The house lights flashed, water pumps shot water from the ceilings. But the solvent spread on the linoleum, licking, eating, under the kitchen door, while the voices took it up in chorus: "Fire, fire, fire!"

The house tried to save itself. Doors sprang tightly shut, but the windows were broken by the heat and the wind blew and sucked upon the fire.

The house gave ground as the fire in ten billion angry sparks moved with flaming ease from room to room and then up the stairs. While scurrying water rats squeaked from the walls, pistolled their water, and ran for more. And the wall sprays let down showers of mechanical rain.

But too late. Somewhere, sighing, a pump shrugged to a stop. The quenching rain ceased. The reserve water supply which had filled baths and washed dishes for many quiet days was gone.

The fire crackled up the stairs. It fed upon Picassos and Matisses in the upper halls, like delicacies, baking off the oily flesh, tenderly crisping the canvases into black shavings. Now the fire lay in beds, stood in windows, changed the colors of drapes!

And then, reinforcements. From attic trapdoors, blind robot faces peered down with faucet mouths gushing green chemical.

The fire backed off, as even an elephant must at the sight of a dead snake.

Now there were twenty snakes whipping over the floor, killing the fire with a clear cold venom of green froth.

But the fire was clever. It had sent flame outside the house, up through the attic to the pumps there. An explosion! The attic brain which directed the pumps was shattered into bronze shrapnel on the beams.

The fire rushed back into every closet and felt of the clothes hung there.

The house shuddered, oak bone on bone, its bared skeleton cringing from the heat, its wire, its nerves revealed as if a surgeon had torn the skin off to let the red veins and capillaries quiver in the scalded air. Help, help! Fire! Run, run! Heat snapped mirrors like the first brittle winter ice. And the voices wailed. Fire, fire, run, run, like a tragic nursery rhyme, a dozen voices, high, low, like children dying in a forest, alone, alone. And the voices fading as the wires popped their sheathings like hot chestnuts. One, two, three, four, five voices died.

In the nursery the jungle burned. Blue lions roared, purple giraffes bounded off. The panthers ran in circles, changing color, and ten million animals, running before the fire, vanished off toward a distant steaming river.... Ten more voices died.

In the last instant under the fire avalanche, other choruses, oblivious, could be heard announcing the time, cutting the lawn by remote-control mower, or setting an umbrella frantically out and in, the slamming and opening front door, a thousand things happening, like a clock shop when each clock strikes the hour insanely before or after the other, a scene of maniac confusion, yet unity; singing, screaming, a few last cleaning mice darting bravely out to carry the horrid ashes away! And one voice, with sublime disregard for the situation, read poetry aloud in the fiery study, until all the film spools burned, until all the wires withered and the circuits cracked.

The fire burst the house and let it slam flat down, puffing out skirts of spark and smoke.

In the kitchen, an instant before the rain of fire and timber, the stove could be seen making breakfasts at a psychopathic rate, ten dozen eggs, six loaves of toast, twenty dozen bacon strips, which, eaten by fire, started the stove working again, hysterically hissing!

The crash. The attic smashing into kitchen and parlour. The parlour into cellar, cellar into sub-cellar. Deep freeze, armchair, film tapes, circuits, beds, and all like skeletons thrown in a cluttered mound deep under.

Smoke and silence. A great quantity of smoke.

Dawn showed faintly in the east. Among the ruins, one wall stood alone. Within the wall, a last voice said, over and over again and again, even as the sun rose to shine upon the heaped rubble and steam:

"Today is August 5, 2026, today is August 5, 2026, today is..."
