Ghoaptober # 11

Prompt: Fire

Words: 1100~

TW: Unhappy Ending (sfw)

This version of Ghoaptober was created by @spadesandshovels

Yep, this one's all angst. Feel free to yell at me about it. I'm almost sorry.

Enjoy!

Stepping into his room Ghost’s eyes immediately caught on a discrepancy in his usually well organized space. There was a battered black notebook open, pages-down, on his bed. Almost completely hidden under his pillow, which was also crumpled in the centre of his bed.

Ghost could piece together what happened. Johnny had come into his room to draw or just get some thoughts down in his journal, lost track of time, then scrambled to leave when one of the alarms he'd set reminded him that he had somewhere to be. 

Ghost had told Johnny that he was always welcome in his room, had given him a copy of his key and everything. Officer’s rooms were a bit more cushy than the bunks the Sergeants got and Ghost’s room was very deliberately in one of the quietest sections of the base. People tended to bug Johnny when he had down time, wanting his help or to hang out. Without Ghost there to act as a looming dissuading presence Johnny hardly gets a moment of quiet and it can wear on him, so Ghost was glad to see that Johnny was taking his offer seriously. 

He drops his pillow back into its place at the head of his bed, then picks up Johnny’s journal. He rummages through the blanket creases for the pen and opens the notebook to tuck it inside as he’s watched Johnny do innumerous times. 

Across the full two page spread are, from what Ghost can tell, messy calculations for various mixes of explosives. Price had banned Johnny from asking what the new demo buildings are made of or how they’re being built, evidently that has not stopped Johnny from making some very good guesses. He’s been making estimates just on how long it’s been taking, what construction he’s heard, the various supplies he’s spotted being toted to the blasting zones, and what he knows of the budget.

The clever little fucker.

He’s even sketched out some of Price’s favourite training floorplans, from memory, as Price only gives those specs to the actual builders. Ghost should probably give Price a heads up, but he won’t. Let Johnny have his fun. 

Ghost’s flipped to the next page and tucked the pen into the crease before he realizes that the pages aren’t blank. The left is filled by various upclose studies of a pair of dark eyes and the full length of the right is filled by a portrait. 

Ghost isn't scared of his reflection, the man he sees in the mirror is him. Is The Ghost. Empty haunted eyes, jagged scars cutting across pocked skin, the ugly sneer that lurks in the corners of his mouth. It's all familiar to him. 

This portrait isn’t of The Ghost.

There’s a fondness in the creases around the eyes, a tenderness held by the lips that are pulled up into a fragile smile, a softness given to the shadows cast gently over what should be harsh edges. There's a warmth to it that The Ghost has never had.

This is a portrait of Simon Riley.

Ghost reflexively drops the book when the heat sears his fingers, narrowly missing his bed by sheer brainless luck. He watches the pile of papers burn for one uncomprehending moment, then panic punches him in the lungs. Dropping the lighter he doesn’t remember pulling out, Ghost scrambles to pick up the notebook, forcing himself to not let go even when the fire creeps up to lick across his fingers. He crashes into his bathroom, throws it into the sink and yanks the faucet handles fully open. Drowning the fire and dousing the notebook. 

Turning off the tap, he stares down at Johnny’s journal. It’s soaked through with a few sad wisps of smoke still rising from its charred edges, slowly collapsing in on itself to match the curve of his sink’s basin. The only thought he can fully form is a strange gratitude that he’d long ago disabled his room’s smoke-detector to smoke his cigarettes in peace. If this had turned into a base wide fiasco he would've resurrected Roba, handed the man a shovel, and told him to do it right this time. 

“Si?” 

Ghost hadn’t thought that he could get more panicked, but Johnny’s confused voice from the doorway shot his heartbeat into a tempo that surely wasn’t medically advisable. 

“Johnny!” He whirls around to face him, subconsciously keeping in front of the sink to block it from view, “I can explain!”

“Explain wha’, Si. Why’s it smell like you're burning some’hing?” Johnny steps closer, looking at him with such warm concern.

Ghost desperately doesn’t want to lose him.

“I didn’t mean to-” He starts to explain, but Johnny had come close enough now to see what he’d been hiding.

“Is…” Soap sounds hesitantly confused, like he already knows, but can’t quite bring himself to accept it, “Is that my journal?” He looks up at Ghost, his eyes begging for Ghost to give him any other answer, “Simon?” 

“I didn’t mean to!” Ghost repeats frantically, “I just-”

“Wait,” Soap interrupts, holding up his hands in between them to stop Ghost’s approach. When had Ghost started walking towards him? “You burned my journal?” 

“Yes.” Ghost confesses, wishing it wasn't the truth, “but I didn’t mean-”

“Why would you do that?” Soap’s voice is rising to match Ghost’s agitated volume, but he still sounds more confused than angry. 

“I saw the picture you drew and then it was- It was on fire,” Ghost tries to explain, reaching forward and flinching back when Soap dodges away from his grip. “I hadn’t meant-”

“You burned my journal,” Soap’s words twist with incredulity, “because you didn’t like what I drew?” 

“No!” Ghost hastily corrects, because he would never, then has to take it back, because evidently he would, “Well, yes, but it was a picture of me-”

“And that gives you the right to burn my journal!?” Soap is starting to sound properly angry now, and Ghost has never had the best reactions to people yelling at him.

“Well maybe if you hadn't left it laying around on my bed. This wouldn’t have happened at all!”

“You said I could!”

“I said that you could come in! Not start treating my room like it’s your own personal pigsty!” 

“Oh, well I’m sorry.” Soap bites sarcastically, “Next time you forget something in my room, I’ll be sure to return the favour!” 

They’re both properly worked up now, heaving for breath on opposite sides of Ghost’s room, like they’re feral things barely holding back from tearing the other apart. 

“You know what.” Soap says, and Ghost knows by the clever glint in his eye that he’s not going to like what he says next, “Don’t worry about it. This is on me. I should have known better than to trust The Ghost with anything I’d want kept safe.”

He waits to see the devastation gore through Ghost's eyes, then gives a self-satisfied nod and turns on his heels to slam out the door.

Leaving Ghost there, with his guts pulled out and his heart beating hollow in his chest. The taste of regret on his tongue sharp with salt. 

Thank You For Reading!

The alternate ending that I considered for this one was Soap taking the blame and apologizing for what he calls 'overstepping Ghost's boundaries' by drawing his face when he knows how sensitive Ghost is about that, which makes Ghost feels extra bad.

Design Your Own Tiny House: The Future of Affordable Living 

Home prices are at an all time high. Communities need options for more affordable homes. Accessory Dwelling Units may be one answer to the growing problem. Small, efficient, and less expensive, these houses need to be a part of every community’s plan to address the affordable home crisis. 

The cities of Des Moines, Cedar Rapids and Iowa City are very favorable towards ADUs and have more flexible codes when building a tiny home. If you are considering an ADU then you may think about designing your own tiny house. 

Why Design Your Own Tiny Home? 

While a trusted ADU builder will have pre-made floor plans, you can bring your creativity and requirements to the design table. Create a tiny home to fit your lifestyle, budget, and personal taste. You may choose a simple one-bedroom retreat or a more intricate multi-functional living space; it just depends on your needs and budget.

Tiny Homes in Des Moines 

The tiny home movement has experienced a surge in Des Moines as many residents are seeking alternative options for homes that cater to affordability and sustainability. Tiny homes in Des Moines provide a unique opportunity to take advantage of the growing number of people wanting to downsize and live a simpler life. While Des Moines offers more flexible regulations when it comes to building an ADU, there are still permits, set backs, and building codes that one needs to be mindful of.

The Best Home Builders in Des Moines for Tiny Homes 

Designing your own tiny home can be a fun and exciting experience, but hiring an experienced tiny home builder can also save time, money and potential headaches when it comes to all that needs to be considered when building an ADU. Choose a custom home builder that specializes in tiny homes and has a complete turnkey service to give you the best possible building experience.

Attached or Detached ADU?

ADUs can be used for many purposes, like guest houses, rental units, or housing for aging parents. The reason you are building an ADU can help you determine if you are better off with a stand alone detached unit, or expanding your current residence with an attached ADU. The size and layout of your property will also have an impact on which style you choose.

ADU Plans: Design Your Space for Maximum Functionality 

No matter what design or floorplan you choose, it’s important to plan for maximum functionality. Tiny homes have limited space, so including space saving features will be important. One example would be a Murphy bed that folds up to create space for a sitting or work space area.

Conclusion 

Designing your tiny house can be an exciting adventure. There is much to consider when thinking about the need, timing and budget. For residents in Des Moines, Cedar Rapids and Iowa City, Iowa, Tiny Homes of Iowa is here to help you navigate each step of the design and build process. We offer many plans to choose from with the flexibility of your design input. Reach out today to get started!

Where Will You Go After You Sell?

If you plan to sell your house and move, you probably know there’s been a shortage of options. But here’s the good news: the supply of homes for sale has grown in many markets this year — and that’s not just existing or previously owned homes. It’s true for newly built homes, too.

So, how do you decide which route to go?

Do you buy an existing home or a brand-new one? The choice is yours — you must determine what’s most important.

Perks of a Newly Built Home

Here are some benefits of buying a newly built home right now:

Have brand new everything with never-been-used appliances and materials

Use energy-efficient options to save money and leave a smaller footprint

Minimize the need for repairs and benefit from builder warranties

Take advantage of builder concessions that can help with affordability

In today’s market, many builders are focusing on selling their current inventory before they add more homes to their mix. Some of them are offering concessions and are more willing to negotiate to make a sale happen.

That, coupled with the fact builders are primarily building smaller, more affordable homes, has led to one other potential perk. The median price for a newly built home in today’s market is lower than that of an existing home — which isn’t usually true. Ralph McLaughlin, Senior Economist at Realtor.com, shares:

“Homebuyers who are looking for that ‘new-home smell’ may be in a relatively friendlier market than times past when new homes were considerably more expensive than used ones.”

If you’re interested in seeing what builders nearby have to offer, lean on your real estate agent. Their knowledge of local builders, new communities, and builder contracts will be important in this process.

Perks of an Existing Home

Let’s compare that to the benefits of buying an existing home.

Join an established neighborhood that you can get a feel for before moving in

Choose from a wider variety of floorplans and styles

Appreciate the lived-in charm that only an older home can provide

Enjoy the privacy and curb appeal of mature trees and landscaping

In addition to these lifestyle benefits, there’s strategic value to buying an existing home, too. Remember, you can upgrade an existing home to include some of the latest features. This gives you the best of both worlds: you’ll get the charm and the neighborhood, and over time, you can still add those on-trend elements you may see in a brand-new home. And if you do, you’ll likely increase the home’s value too.

An article from LendingTree explains:

“. . . they can personalize it and possibly increase its potential resale value with cosmetic upgrades . . . Plus, if a home comes with physical details or stories that add charm, in some cases, these elements are attractive enough to add to a home’s resale value . . .”

Want to see what’s available? Your real estate agent can show you homes for sale in your area so you can decide if one fits your needs.

Bottom Line

There are many factors that go into deciding whether to buy an existing home or a newly built one after you sell, but it’s essential to understand the opportunities you can find in both in today’s market.

From Sold to New: Planning Your Next Steps After Selling Your Home

If you're thinking about selling your house and moving, you’ve probably noticed the shortage of available homes. Here’s some good news: this year, the supply of homes for sale—including newly built ones has increased in many markets.

So, how do you decide between buying an existing home or a brand-new one? It all comes down to what matters most to you.

Benefits of Buying a Newly Built Home

Here’s why opting for a newly built home might be the right choice for you:

Everything’s Brand New: Enjoy fresh appliances and materials that have never been used before.

Energy Efficiency: Take advantage of modern, energy-efficient options to save money and reduce your environmental impact.

Fewer Repairs: New homes typically require less maintenance and come with builder warranties for added peace of mind.

Builder Concessions: Builders often offer incentives and are more open to negotiations to close a sale, which can improve affordability.

Many builders are currently focusing on selling their existing inventory before starting new projects. As a result, they’re offering concessions and being more flexible in negotiations. Additionally, since many builders are focusing on smaller, more affordable homes, you might find that the median price for a newly built home is actually lower than that of an existing home—a rare scenario in today’s market. As Ralph McLaughlin, Senior Economist at Realtor.com, explains:

“Homebuyers who are looking for that ‘new-home smell’ may be in a relatively friendlier market than times past when new homes were considerably more expensive than used ones.” 

Perks of Buying an Existing Home

Let’s weigh the benefits of purchasing an existing home:

Established Neighborhoods: Move into a neighborhood with an established vibe and get a feel for the area before committing.

Variety of Styles: Choose from a wide range of floorplans and architectural styles that may not be available in new constructions.

Lived-In Charm: Enjoy the unique character and charm that only an older home can offer.

Mature Landscaping: Benefit from the privacy and curb appeal of mature trees and well-developed landscaping.

In addition to these lifestyle advantages, buying an existing home offers strategic value. You can always upgrade the property over time to incorporate the latest features, giving you the charm of an older home with the benefits of modern elements. This approach not only provides you with the best of both worlds but can also increase the home's value. As LendingTree highlights:

“they can personalize it and possibly increase its potential resale value with cosmetic upgrades . . . Plus, if a home comes with physical details or stories that add charm, in some cases, these elements are attractive enough to add to a home’s resale value”

Interested in exploring your options? Reach out to your real estate agent to view the available homes in your area and find one that suits your needs.

Bottom Line

There are a lot of factors that go into deciding whether to buy an existing home or a newly built one after you sell, but it’s essential in today’s market to understand the opportunities you can find in both. Let’s connect so you have expert guidance as you explore the options in our area.

Building Your Dream Home? Busting Common Myths About House Builders in Melbourne's West

Melbourne's West is a vibrant and flourishing area, and what better way to put down roots than crafting your dream home there with professional house builders in Melbourne? But before you dive headfirst into the exciting world of floorplans and finishes, it's essential to address some common myths surrounding house builders in the West. Let's dispel these misconceptions and ensure your dream home journey is a smooth and informed one.

Myth 1: All House Builders in the West Are Created Equal

This simply isn't true. Home builders in Western Suburbs Melbourne come in all shapes and sizes, with varying levels of experience, expertise, and customer service. While some specialize in budget-friendly, no-frills build, others cater to luxury, architecturally designed homes. Do your research! Look for builders with a strong reputation in Melbourne's West, a proven track record of quality construction, and a portfolio that aligns with your vision.

Myth 2: Building Takes Forever and Always Goes Over Budget

While timelines can fluctuate due to permits and material availability, reputable builders will provide a realistic timeframe upfront. Don't be afraid to ask for a detailed breakdown of the building schedule, including potential milestones and completion dates. As for budget, transparency is key. Choose a builder who offers fixed-price contracts that outline exactly what's included and what potential variations might cost. This way, you're less likely to encounter nasty surprises down the track.

Myth 3: You Don't Have Much Customization with Production Builders

While production builders offer a range of pre-designed floorplans, many are flexible and allow for modifications to suit your needs. You might be able to adjust wall placements, add features like a study nook, or upgrade certain finishes. The key is to find a builder who strikes a balance between efficiency and customization. Discuss your vision upfront and see what they can offer within a reasonable scope.

By dispelling these common myths and approaching the process with research and open communication, you can ensure a smooth and successful journey towards turning your dream into a reality.

How to Secure Your Dream Pre-Construction Condo in Brampton

The real estate market in Brampton is red hot. More and more buyers coming to this burgeoning city. A prime target are the many new pre construction condos in Brampton coming up across neighborhoods. From Downtown Brampton's urban core to family-friendly West Brampton, there's a new project for every lifestyle.

If you've had your eye on one of these amazing and amenity-filled condominiums, you need to be strategic to land your dream unit. Here are my insider's tips for securing one of the best pre construction condos in Brampton:

1. Get Pre-Approved First

Before even looking at listings, get pre-approved for a mortgage loan from your bank. This shows condo sellers you're a qualified, serious buyer who can close quickly when the time comes. Lenders will take into account Brampton's higher property values and cost of living.

2. Research Development Reputations 

Not all Brampton builders and developers are equal. Research their histories and read reviews of completed projects. Highly-regarded developers like Crown Crest Homes and Greenpark Group sell out blazing fast, so get on their insider lists immediately.

3. Choose Your Neighborhood Wisely

Each Brampton neighborhood has its own amenities and vibe. Mount Pleasant has convenient GO Transit access, while Heartlake is geared towards families with top schools and parks. Decide which area suits your needs best in terms of commuting, lifestyle, and future value.

4. Study Floorplans Intensely

With pre-construction, you're buying based on floorplans and renderings alone. Scrutinize them intensely and measure room dimensions and analyzing layout flow. That 500 sq.ft. studio may live larger than it appears on paper. You can ask your realtor to show you other sizes of the suites available.

5. Jump On VIP Incentives  

Most premium Brampton condo developments offer exclusive VIP incentives. This is for their insider buyer lists for the first few days of sales. This could mean thousands off purchase prices, free upgrades or assignment clause protection. It may include free appliances, parking spots, and lockers. Don't miss out by being late to register for pre construction condos in Brampton.

6. Prepare Your Downpayment

In Brampton's competitive market, have your minimum 20% down payment funds liquid and ready to go. Many lenders require even larger down payments for pre-construction purchases to mitigate risk. Cash talks during high-pressure sales events. Be prepared with your finances and talk to your realtor if you need help with better financing options.

7. Use A Connected Agent

Working with an agent who specializes in Brampton's pre-construction market is invaluable. They get first access to new projects and inside scouts on premium listings. They can skillfully handle the complex purchasing process for you as a buyer.  

8. Be Decisive When You Find 'The One'

When your dream pre construction condos in Brampton get released, be ready to act immediately. Hesitation will mean missed opportunities as units get snapped up rapidly. Having flexible down payment funds and pre-approval gives you an edge.

Competition is intense for Brampton's pre-construction condos given the city's economic growth and popularity with buyers. But with preparation and committed effort, you can make your brand new dream home a reality before it's even built! Follow these tips to secure your perfect unit.
