Episode Three- The Roofer, The Shopkeeper, The Student

My OC this time!

Narrator voice: Knock, knock!

Who’s there?

Well, if you’re these three guys, it’s someone to temporarily lock you in a van!

Seb was not happy, stuck next to two blokes that had not stopped talking since they took their seats. Bill was arguing with Harry about…something. Seb had stopped listening after they introduced themselves. “Why did I let Nicky talk me into this?” He grumbled, which seemed to catch Bill ‘a attention.

The roofer laughed, “Why? Afraid you’ll lose out to me?”

“Quite frankly I don’t care if I do. I’m an acquired taste, or so are my interests. If this doesn’t pan out I still get six months without Nicky and his girl asking to set me up.” Seb answered. As Harry opened his mouth, the screen in front of them flickered to life.

“Hey, bitches- oh maybe that was too aggressive. Should I redo it?” They watched as the girl blinked at someone off camera, “Oh, it’s live for them? Shit- I mean, hi! I’m Jordan- Jordy if I like you.” Jordy picked at the skin around her nails, her slanted green eyes glittering with both embarrassment and amusement at herself, her dyed hair was short but with a Mohawk that hung over on one side, “I’m 28, grew up in Canterbury, and I work as a recording and producing manager for some names I won’t say. But enough about me. I get to delve into your lives today, and that’s what I’m here for! Let’s get moving, shall we?”

Seb snorted. This girl was amusing for sure.

Harry was less impressed, “She really came out of the gate hard, huh?”

“Oh, lighten up,” Bill knocked his shoulder, “She was clearly jokin’, mate. And it looks like she’s hitting my place first.”

Jordy walked up to the first, knocking her ringed fingers against it roughly before she opened it up and tucked her hands into the front pockets of her baggy jeans. “This place looks…anal retentive.” Her eyes peered around, not a thing out of place. Her combat boots thumped lightly, carrying her to the kitchen and she threw open the first cabinet she came to, only to find containers labeled by days of the week. “Are these sachets of mayo? How much mayo you need in one day, mate?” She popped open the fridge quickly, “Where’s the ranch? Or barbecue or hot sauce? Do you only use mayo?”

“Mayo is all you need.” Bill groaned, almost drowning her voice out as she continued to move on screen.

Jordy let her fingers slide down the wall now as she came to his bedroom door, “It would be horrifying to find his porn stash. Even with the gloves and tongs they gave me.” She shivered for dramatic effect before pressing the door open. “Let’s see. We’ve got some dirty work clothes in the hamper, and those can stay there. I see some movies, but it looks like all obscure stuff. Are you one of those guys that likes to feel superior by knowing something the other person doesn’t?” She didn’t really need the answer. She knew she hit the nail on the head. She took the black light to the bed, only to immediately pull away when it lit up stains. Debating if she really wanted to keep trying her luck she looked into the closet, all neatly lined up in some kind of order she couldn’t decipher, but a definite order nonetheless. She pulled back, stepping over to his desk to find… “Is that a knife with mayo still on it? Mate, how long has that been there? Now I don’t know what kind of stains were on the bed.” She gagged, stepping away and back out of the bedroom as quickly as she’d gone in, only stopping short when she sees something illuminated in the living room. A closer look told her it was a trophy under a presentation light, “Debate Competition. Third Place. So you’re an arguer, but not a good one.” She tucked her hands into the pockets of her leather jacket and made her way out the door without another word.

They watched her head out the door, and Seb was both impressed and terrified of what her reaction would be to his place, but he let out a low whistle, “That was savage, mate.”

Bill shrugged, “So she can’t see the important of mayo. That’s on her, not me.”

Harry raised his brows and shared a look with Seb before they decided to let it go. Seb groaned when he realized his place was next. He’d been hoping his place was last.

“Okay, buckaroo number two. Let’s see what kind of place you’ve got.” Jordy walked through the door with light steps, almost like she was afraid someone was going to pop up out of nowhere. One ringed hand trailing over the back of the sofa as she looked around, movies cases laid on the floor next to the tv stand instead of on the shelves, the cushions looked pressed down from being sat on, “This place feels more homey than the last one. Like you actually live in it.” Seb’s leather jacket hung off the coat rack, and she chuckled at she pointed at it, “Hey, we’ve got a similar style.” She went to take a step and was immediately stopped by a loud ‘Mrrow!’ Jordy bent down, scooping up the dark ball of fur that was trying to tangle in her legs, “Well, hello there. Aren’t you a precious baby? Oh, who’s expecting babies, I see.”

Seb blinked, “Doom hasn’t liked anyone but Nicky since she got pregnant. Not even me. Mate was supposed to have him today, too. What is happening?” He was partially convinced she must be carrying catnip.

“I wonder if your dad would be mad if I fed you.” She wondered aloud, scanning the kitchen until she found the cans of cat food, “Well, he can be mad. You’re adorable and deserve a treat. Maybe when you finish you can help me explore. Bye pretty kitty!” She grinned to herself as she followed the hallway to his bedroom. The walls were painted black, posters littering them, “The Clash, Fall Out Boy, The Killjoys, The Killers, Make Out Monday…you’ve got some taste, lad.” She walked over to the stereo, clicking play on the album inside and the room filled with the sound of 505 by Arctic Monkeys. She nodded her head along, sitting down at his desk and scanning the bookshelf next to it, “Comics? DC or Marvel, my guy? Personally, I can’t pick. I love Batman, but Hawkeye is pretty badass.” She flipped through his closet next, commenting on the band tees she saw, before she moved to his bed. “The comforter and sheets are black, should I even need the light?” She lit it up anyway to come back clean. “At least one of you can change your sheets. But I think that’s it for here. Onto number three.” She made sure to scratch under Doom’s chin on the way out the door.

Bill sighed, “She tore my place apart and didn’t say a single bad thing about yours. Unless Harry’s room is bloody impressive, I think you’ve won this, mate.”

Seb just shrugged. He was never one to get his hopes up.

Harry, on the other hand, started talking overconfidently about how great his place was.

Jordy trudged through the door of the third flat, eyes catching the textbooks that laid on every surface you could conceivably study from, “Physics, Art History, Law Practices, what the hell are you studying, mate? The physical properties of being a lawyer to a painting?”

“I just like to learn.” Harry pouted, arms crossing over his chest.

Jordy continued on. The living room looked barely touched if you took away the copious notes that flooded the coffee table, and the same could be said for the kitchen, so she made her way to the bedroom right away. The walls were covered like they were in the second flat she visited, but instead of band posters she found half finished vision boards and posters for Fast and the Furious. She looked over the boards, humming to herself, “Mate, do you, like, finish anything? I get the importance of seeing your goal, or whatever, but it doesn’t do you any good if you can’t put the work in.” She connected a few of the boards to the textbooks she’d seen, but some of them were for things that studying wouldn’t help. You needed to practice or train to get better at them, and she wondered if he knew that as she left his flat.

Seb watched as Bill and Harry seemed to be trying to tear her flat apart as soon as they entered. One of them had a critique to offer about everything. Meanwhile he was looking at the signed records she had hanging on the wall. Mason Rhodes, Blake Hampton, Yasmín, Timye. He wondered if they were the people she worked with. Her closet was full of jeans, some baggy like she had on and some skinny jeans, and mostly graphic tees or flannels with a few dark button ups thrown in. Harry pointed the pride flags hanging on her bedroom wall. Panromantic and asexual.

The phone rang and the three of them froze. Bill moved to answer it but Seb slapped his hand, “She has a machine, let it pick up the call, ya knob.”

Bill glared, rubbing his hand, but left the phone alone. When the machine picked it up, they couldn’t believe it.

“Jordy, love, I know you’re busy with that thing today but it’s ya boy- Tim. You need to call Yasmín and have her submit those samples. The studio��s been on my ass to finish this album but I can’t do it without the samples. But good luck finding a guy that isn’t a tool this time! You know me and Mason will tell him off if you need us to. Bye, love!”

“That was-“ Harry blinked, “That was Timothy Pritchard.”

That confirmed it then. She managed Timye.

Jordy opened the front door to find the three of them still staring at her landline. “It’s not going to do a trick. You knobs realize that, right?”

Seb snorted before he could stop himself, and he didn’t miss her smirk because of it. “You are something else.”

“You don’t even know, lad.” Bill shook her hand, and so did Harry, before the three of them finally got with the program and lined up. “Okay, gotta boot one of you right off the bat, right? It’s gotta be number one. Your room was gross, mate. And you need more sauces in your life. Mayo is so basic and bland.” Bill rolled his eyes and was out the door without a word, Seb almost laughed. He hadn’t stopped talking all day but now he had nothing? “Okay. As for the second, it would have to be number three. You don’t seem to know what you want. I don’t think you’re prepared for a relationship- or anything serious or even casual- until you figure that out.” Harry nodded, not offering a word as he followed Bill’s exit. Jordy smirked at the last boy, “Had a feeling you were number two. You look like that place was your style.”

He laughed, “Name’s Seb. Short for Sebastian.”

Her nose scrunched up, “You don’t look like a Sebastian.”

“You don’t look like a Jordan.” He countered.

She grinned, “Touché.”

Built-Up

Built-Up by bentobox

There was, of course, whispering about how parliament never should have passed that damn new law about civilian workplace quirk use because it was giving work to those upstart Urarakas, but the talk died down soon. Everyone got a piece of the pie when folks with strength quirks started joining the trades. The electrician unions were ecstatic about the sudden influx of people capable of handling high, live voltage work. The roofers welcomed floaters and fliers of all kinds.

Or: I walk you through a good part of the construction process and maybe sprinkle in some romance.

Some very old OCs (like, the youngest being six years and the oldest being eight!) that I might resurrect for a story about some early thirty-somethings in a small town (or a small rural city) who accidentally stumbled across something... strange... in their teens. They went off in different directions as adults, but as the ramifications of what they discovered begin to come to fruition, they find themselves pulled back together.

Ryder Silva is an app developer and runs a start-up. It isn’t like he has much to lose - you can’t tell from looking at him, but his family is pretty wealthy! He has condos in Miami, New York, Victoria, Toronto, Montreal, and Rio de Janeiro. The only reason he went to a public high school was because his parents didn’t want him to only socialize with other rich kids. He’s recently gotten out of a longterm relationship after he had a brief mental health spiral that was triggered by him realizing something weird had happened to him: He was able to make predictions about the near future that were 100% accurate.

Arthur Fabian works at the local GameStop, and has for the past ten years. He has a lot of opinions on tech, and has been trying to build his own PC for the past five years to little avail. He plays guitar, and although he’d like to play on stage, he’s been a wreck since his mother passed away and the anxiety it left him with left him unable to play in front of a crowd. He helps out as a guitar tech at a local venue from time to time. He’s an alcoholic, and used to mess around with other drugs until he forced himself to stop. Although he’s not stranger to strange events—his life is 90% weird events—even he has to admit that he has no explanation for how he was about to get punched in a bar one second, and then was in his apartment’s bathroom the next.

Elsie Dougall is a makeup artist who has been running a successful business in London, Ontario. She mostly does make up for weddings, but she experiments with special effects on her Instagram. She was wild in her youth, but during the second year of her post-secondary program she settled down. She tends to have short and intense relationships that leave both her and the other person a wreck after. In her last relationship, she considered getting married after only two months. After talking that out with her twin brother, Alastair, he convinced her not to and got her to come stay with him. During this time she’s been trying out the new hobbies of doll repainting and kungfu, and she’s really loving both! Just as her life was starting to turn around, she woke up one morning and found that instead of having to contour her face to make it look how she wanted, all she had to do was think about how she wanted to look, and her body would change accordingly.

Alastair Dougall has always been quiet. He went from the angry sort of quiet he was as a teen to the sweet sort of quiet he is now. He lives in his hometown and works as an English teacher at the local high school. His life is calm, and boring, but that’s just the way he likes it. He’s invited his sister to stay with him, but it’s as much for her as it is for him. He’s been slipping into depression, and having someone there to keep him on a schedule is nice. He was out buying himself a pack of smokes (he knows he needs to quit) when someone jumps in. Alastair only meant to get the guy off him, but as soon as he touches him, he watches the life drain from his body. Panicked, he runs home.

Roderich Cremo had a rough childhood and an even rougher teenhood, and everyone quietly expected him to have an equally rough adulthood. It did seem that way at first—he has a couple of DUI’s to his name—but after working as a roofer and construction worker for two years, he decided to apply to a year-round campground up north to work as a camp counselor. He loves his work there, and the staff and kids loved him, too. He met someone while working there who told him about to work as a farmhand overseas. He’s out working late one night on a farm in rural Serbia burning cardboard that’s been taking up space when he realizes he didn’t use a lighter or matches to set them ablaze. He used his hands.

OC Roof Restore

Your roof is a vital structural element of your own home. 2) Price of inside repairs - fixing wet sheet-rock, portray ceiling, and many others, - $250-four hundred. Whether it is only a stain on the ceiling, then you'll be able to choose up a gallon of white paint at Lowe's or Dwelling Depot and do it your self. Simple set up. In some instances, metallic shingles may be put in over your current asphalt roof. Nearly all of my inspection is dedicated to seams and flashings. I am going to pay shut attention to excessive visitors areas for put on or physical damage. I'll suggest concrete roof pads in these areas if I see unwarranted wear. Rent solely a roofing contractor - not a handyman. You want an expert who is aware of all of the features of flat roof restore, not a jack-of-all-trades. When you can't put a drain in the course of that puddle, I might first talk to city officers and clarify the state of affairs that due to their stupid restrictions, your roof is leaking. Besides including a drain or opening the plugged drain, I feel that it may be time to replace your roof. Rolled asphalt roofs don't last long anyway, and can never stand up to ponding water. Finally, change Remont na pokrivi Plovdiv as soon as you possibly can afford it. Cease the infinite restore cycle once and for all. Select a brand new flat roofing material you can belief (IB Roof) - not the inferior, but cheaper option like EPDM rubber roof - which most roofers will give you as a result of it attracts many homeowners because of low value, however does not hold up nicely (which the roofer will not let you know about). Though metal roof prices are increased than asphalt and they are less fashionable, they have important benefits that you will want to take into account when updating your roof. The largest issue for owners with DIY rubber roof repair is definitely acquiring the EPDM roofing materials, that are usually offered solely by means of distribution, and solely to roofing contractors.

Hey umm psa , cartoons can be very important for coping , let me set the stage ; I was abused as a child , I was an alcoholic at the age of nine to ten due to bullying and family issues . my father was an alcoholic and highly abusive . I've had to rip him off my siblings because he wouldn't stop hitting them before . I've been chased through the house with a knife , I've been slammed against walls and doors . had my mouth covered so I couldn't scream for help . he left our family december eighth of last year . I never mourned or cried over him leaving , although I blamed myself . Instead I fell into musicals and TMNT . It helped me wake up on days the fight seemed to be too hard . I took in ninjutsu as a coping thing and especially my writing with others in the community . They talked me out of suicide and self harm many times , they've helped me come to terms with my identity and even voice chatted me when I was crying and mid panic attack , and in some cases when I was just lonely . Tonight I had a dream , I actually woke up in tears after a dream I had tonight , my family was together , my mom was actually a friend's oc and my dad was splinter , we actually lived like a normal human family , for some reason he was a roofer ? But I digress . Something happened while he was working and he got an injury, one of his work mates called us and left a message they were gonna pull the plug and the whole family was just trying to get there , I woke up in tears and it sunk in . I wasn't crying over my father , I was crying over splinter . The only real father figure I'd ever had . And something about that made me smile , because although he wasn't here ' with me ' . . . He was the one father no one could ever take away from me , the one father who'd never hurt me or my siblings , and the one father I could always trust .

So when someone uses a cartoon , movie show or fandom to cope , you may not see it but chances are they need it and it can heal them . There is no cookie-cutter way to cope . Even if you don't like what someone uses or if you think it's cringy , don't stop them because chances are they need whatever it is more than you think .

Roofing shingles.

Change broken and broken tiles as soon as you detect them. Timber tiles are a lot more pricey than asphalt tiles, costing between $6.50 and $11.00 per square foot, installed.

They produce a very appealing roofing but are tricky to mount and also not ideal for many DIYers. Understand that growing fire dangers in some regions has triggered legal restrictions on the use of wood roofing products.

They are not a good option in any kind of area where there are seasonal wildfire hazards. Asphalt roll roof is made from large rolls of the exact same material utilized in asphalt roof shingles. Utilized for reasonably level pitches, such as angled shed roofing systems, roll roofing is installing by laying strips lengthwise across the roof in overlapping training courses. Roll roofing is a fairly very easy material to set up, as well as several DIYers do this themselves. However it is better fit for sheds, garages, and also maybe deck roofings, and also is not a great remedy for most home roofs.

Top Cities Covered by our Roofers.

Thinking an average of about $9 per square foot, a 2,000 square foot home with 2,200 square foot of typical sloped roof covering will set you back $19,800 to roof.

Can You Lay New Roof Covering Shingles Over Old?

This is not to state that a knowledgeable DIYer shouldn't install roofing tiles, only that selecting not to work with a qualified, licensed and also fully insured professional roofer may involve more than simply physical risk. Set up effectively, asphalt tiles are no more simple to determine. Some are made to well mimic the look of slate, wood shakes and even tile.

Timber shakes are a thicker material than timber shingles, and also they can be anticipated to stand up far better than timber roof shingles to weather and UV rays.

For a 2,000 square foot house with 2,200 in sloped roof location, average nationwide costs for https://cashtbzd917.tumblr.com/post/190591965206/best-roof-covering-materials-for-homes-2020 a steel panel roofing are about $22,000.

For a medium-pitch roof, the average cost will be somewhere between $100 and $200 per square for the shingles alone. ( A square in "roof terminology" amounts to the size of a 10' x 10' area, or 100 square feet.) Making asphalt roof shingles much more preferable is the fact that they can be used straight over old tiles, offered the roof deck is in excellent problem. If, nonetheless, there are currently two or even more shingle layers, or your existing roof is shake-shingled, it's recommended to eliminate the old before using the new.

What is the best material to put on a flat roof?

The most common residential roofing material used in the United States, asphalt shingles are popular because they are economical and easy to install. These shingles can be reinforced with fiberglass or organic materials (cellulose) without changing the appearance of the shingle.

There is no "collection it and also forget it" choice for any kind of timber roof material. Remove debris as quickly as it falls on the roofing.

Every one of these elements educate one another. Producer warranties presently ensure asphalt shingles a 15- to 30-year useful life.
