US military to send additional 1,500 troops to border
It is illegal for them to detain anyone or help in detention. Some of this is optics, but there is a real slippery slope feel to it. Since SCOTUS abolished rule of law and laws no longer constrain the president, I don't like or trust this.
After all Hegseth has promised to purge any generals with ethics and they confirmed him with Vance breaking the tie. Generals with ethics were what constrained Trump from turning the military loose on peaceful protesters last time he tried to do it.
I was always against raids and the general shittiness of our immigration/CBP militarized system even before I heard the story I'm going to tell here. This has haunted my since the early '90's when a prof told it to me.
So she and her husband are Native Americans, with four tribes between them. The tribes were all Northern plains ones. I can't remember which of them was Lakota, but they were enrolled members of different tribes. As indigenous to the United States as it's possible to be.
So they get jobs teaching down in L.A. and one day, the husband is taking a bus home and the bus gets raided and he has no proof of citizenship on him just normal ID, so they are going to deport him to Mexico even though he speaks no Spanish and his Ancestors have been here since they walked over the land bridge.
She had to rush home and dig through the moving boxes, trying to find all his documentation and she manages to rescue him and bring him home. It was terrifying. They didn't know that they could be deported for looking native to the country in which they and their ancestors had always lived. They started looking for jobs in the North right away.
I've been thinking about it multiple times a day all year. I assumed it would start happening in large amounts as soon as the "mass deportation" sweeps started, that they'd try to deport Native Americans and natural born citizens. Likely even on purpose as they were saying that was what they were going to do since at least the election.

Honorably discharged partially disabled Simon part 7
part 1 part 2 part 3 part 4 part 5 part 6
It's been about a week since you and Simon decided to adopt the retired military dog, named Riley because Soap wouldn't give him to you until you and Simon accepted the name, and you couldn't be happier. You had originally agreed to the dog with the hopes that it would make Simon happier, and Riley did make him happier but also helped in so many other ways. Simon had learned that all he had to do was say an object and signal for Riley to get it, and Riley would fetch it and return it to Simon. If Riley didn't know what Simon wanted, Simon would point and Riley would go point his snout at everything till Simon said yes. Apparently this also works for you, Riley would go find you before gently using his mouth to grab your hand dragging you all the way to Simon, and when you asked Simon what was so important he had to send Riley to get you, his response was “jus’ wanna kiss ya”
Something you had been struggle with Simon was how much he works out, yes its good for him but he can't do as much as he used to, it puts way to much strain on his body. he still tries, which means everytime he goes work out you have to follow him, and you are no way in his level, almost passing out every time he almost always carries you back. Thankfully Riley can tell when Simon's body is getting weaker and Riley will just stop and refuse to go any farther insisting they turn around and head home. So every morning after breakfast Simon takes Riley on his run, allowing Riley to enjoy the outside while making sure Simon doesnt over exert himself, and on good days they do the whole thing again in the evening.
But the absolute best way Riley helps is stopping Simon from falling. Riley’s previous owner must have also had some kind of mobility issues, because this isn't a military taught action. Riley was able to tell right before Simon's leg was going to tense up, he would repeatedly nudge Simon's leg and then start barking until Simon sat down, even if Simon had to sit on the floor. He is also always somehow under Simon right when Simon drops something, always grabbing it and handing it back without a command.
All in all, Riley has been a wonderful addition to your home, and it took much less time for Riley and Simon to become close, it's only been a week and you find Simon napping on the sofa with Riley putting pressure on Simon's leg. Simon’s still getting used to the name and the new addition to the house but you see the way Simon lights up when he's with Riley. Riley is just like the final puzzle piece, you and Simon's routine just seemed to click after Riley arrived, you now have a plan for the bad days.
On the bad days you run Simon a cold bath, with bubbles because you find it hilarious to see such a large man in a bathtub full of bubbles, and your laughing brightens his mood. Sometimes you'll join him in the bath, placing gentle kisses everywhere that aren't covered with bubbles, and doing your best to massage his shoulders. After that, no matter what time of day you pull Simon under the covers for some very needed cuddles and a nap. You even have routines for when you first wake up and right before you go to bed, first thing in the morning is you putting on Simon's leg wrap, giving his leg a soft kiss before getting some breakfast for all three of you. Before bed Simon takes Riley out for a quick walk about 5-10 minutes it helps them both sleep, you remove his leg wrap before giving his whole body a massage. Honestly you're surprised how tense he gets everyday, then he pulls you into the bed for a hopefully good night of sleep. Now of course not every night is it easy to sleep, but thankfully Simon hasn't had a terrible night like the last one.

Field Day
Prompt number: 27 "Let me remind you"
Fandom: Marvel
Pairing: Teacher!Bucky x teacher!reader (no use of y/n)
Rating: T(een)
Word count: 1.1k+
Warnings: Swearing, a stupid hr policy based off a policy at one of my jobs, a horny woman at work, I think that's it.
A/N: Hi, hello, it's been ages since I posted a fic, and this is 2 days late late. I really really want to participate again this year, but I have 2 jobs now and I have some other important things happening this month, so I won't have much time to write. But without further ado, here is day 1!
“Let me remind you that we aren’t allowed to date coworkers,” you sigh, as Peggy tells you that you should finally give into your work crush and go on a date with Bucky.
Bucky is the sweetest soul you have ever met, he’s a little shy but once he warms up to you he’s just a giant teddy bear who will do whatever he can to make your life easier. He’s been your work crush for about a year now, when he switched from second to fourth grade, the grade you teach. Now you have department meetings together, teach science labs together, and go on field trips together. His sweet personality and the forced proximity made it impossible not to develop a work crush on him.
“Technically we can date coworkers, it’s just frowned upon,” Peggy tries to play devil’s advocate, hoping that her friends will finally get over themselves and go on a date.
“Oh yes, Bucky and I can date so long as we report it to HR the moment we go on a date, and they can still decide to fire one or both of us,” you roll your eyes and give your best friend a look before turning back to the playground to watch the kids. “Isn’t that why you waited to start dating Steve until he went to teach at the military academy.”
“Do as I say, not as I do,” Peggy giggles, just as Bucky lets his kids out his classroom door to join yours and Peggy’s for field day.
“What are you two gals talking about,” Bucky saunters over to where you're standing near enough to the playground to see the kids, but far enough from them that they can’t hear what you're saying.
“I was telling her that she should start packing her lunch instead of going out on Wednesday and Friday, much healthier. And obviously, she called me on the fact that Steve sends me lunch from restaurants most of the week,” Peggy smoothly lies. It’s a decent enough fib, but if you were Bucky you wouldn’t believe her.
So where did you end up getting stuck for field day?” you ask Bucky, he was sick the day of sign ups no doubt being stuck with the worst job.
“The dunk tank, damn Stevie leaving the school and leaving me with this stupid job,” Steve always volunteered to do the dunk tank, and now that he’s gone the entire staff quickly snapped up every other position. “What do you have this year?”
“The inflatable obstacle course,” you grin widely, you’d been petitioning the PTA to allocate funds to rent one for field day for the past three years now.
“I told you you could convince those parents to let you rent one, and the kids are going to love it!” you can’t help but blush at his praise.
“Third times the charm,” you give him a small bashful smile.
“I’m in charge of dodgeball in the gym,” Peggy cuts in, reminding you that you aren’t alone and have an audience of almost a hundred kids as more classes spill out of their rooms.
Soon enough the three of you go your separate ways and get field day started. Like every year, the day flies with minimal complaining from the kids, lots of laughing, and just a few scrapes and bruises. The kids all loved your addition to the course this year, all cheering in excitement when they get to your station. Before you know it your class is back at your station and field day is wrapping up, so you take the kids to the refreshments table to grap a dixie cup off gatorade and a cookie.
“Oh dear god,” you murmur under your breath, catching Peggy’s attention as she walks up to the table with her class.
Bucky’s also walking up to the refreshment table sopping wet, black t-shirt and basketball shorts clinging to his rock hard physique. Bucky is an attractive man, anyone who disagreed was either lying or blind, so this wasn’t a new revelation to you by any means. But knowing he has abs is one thing, but seeing his shirt clinging to them is a completely different one. Your heart starts to hammer harder and harder the closer he gets to you, damn Peggy had to get in your head about your crush earlier and you’re on the edge of throwing caution to the wind, and yourself at him.
“What were those rules again,” Peggy whispers, giggling in your ear.
“Can’t remember,” your voice trails off just like your thoughts. It’s unreal and unfair that Bucky could be as nice and as drop dead gorgeous as he is. No man could ever live up to him, and you pity everyone that dares to try.
“Only one person dunked me, and it was one of yours,” Bucky says gruffly, the twinkling in his eyes gives away his humor and pride in the student.
“One of mine?” you grin from ear to ear, your own pride showing at your student. One of your little fourth headers was able to dunk him, when the older kids couldn’t. “Who was it?”
“Me!” Brayden, your secret favorite student, hollers from behind you.
“Way to go Brayden!” you exclaim, the rest of your class cheering as you give him a high five.
“It was hilarious,” Luke, one of Bucky’s students pipes up. “We were at the human wheelbarrow station next to the dunk tank and we saw everything! One minute he was on the seat, and the next he was coming up from the water coughing on it.”
“Are you okay, Mr. Barnes?” you giggle, turning to look at him. It takes everything in you to keep your eyes on his, something the other female staff aren’t doing themselves.
“I will be, once my ego heals,” your two classes laughing at his joke.
“Do you want to come over for dinner tonight? I’m making my chili that you love so much,” you ask Bucky when the kids are out of hearing range. Peggy stares at you wide eyed, it’s like she can hear your inner monologue, in awe of your bravery and taking this chance.
“I would love to,” Bucky has a soft smile on his face, like he’s sensing that everything is about to change for the better. Fuck HR, and fuck this job if it keeps you from being happy and with the man of your dreams. As long as you have Bucky everything will be okay, and you’ll both land on your feet eventually, even if it means finding a new district.

Fic Finder
July 26th
~*~
1. hi! pease help me find this fic because i really want to re read this.
junior quartet got sent back around sunshot campaign (i think?) because in the future, the four were there in the guanyin temple face off with jgy, together with lxc, lwj, wwx, and jwy. they were really losing and the seniors told the juniors that they're going to find a way to get out of there. turns out, the seniors sacrificed their life to send the juniors to the past through an array but the juniors didn't know about this. jin guangyao also went back in time because he got into the array in time.
here are some details that im not sure if they're are a part of the fic or it's from others (my mind sometimes mix things up). i hope these help:
- jingyi found young jingyi when they were sent back.
- the juniors went to burial mounds and the people there wer skeptical about them
- later part of the fic, zizhen was not accepted in his family (i forgot why) @moonyramie

2. Hello there again! Im looking for this one sci-fi fic where wei wuxian was a scientist and lan wangji was a military soldier. They met during an Alien invation. In the fic they try to figure out how to kill the aliens or how they even got in earth. Thankyou!
FOUND? Number 2 sounds like Son of a SoliderMan, by FireAwayy, who deleted it and quite a few other Untamed fics because of harassment. // Also had Jiang Cheng and Wen Ning as ambulance drivers, Lan Xichen, Nie Mingjue and Song Lan as solders who were sent into the area.

3. Hi! This is for ficfinder. I read this fic a few years ago. Its MDZSXTGCF crossover. Im not familiar with TGCF so maybe there will be some incorrect use of some term and relationship. WWX dies after he jump from a clif and then he become ghost in the ghost city. He work/become a friend with hua cheng. WWX wore a weimao (its either weimao or a red umbrella). HC and XL then feel some disturbance and with WWX they visit a place where they jail jun wu (?) In some mountain. But when they arrive, the jailer tells them its not jun wu. HC, XL, and WWX then continue their investigation and they meet with LXC and NMJ. I think there WWX identity is revealed to LXC and NMJ. They found out that the disturbance is because of yin iron that are thrown to the magma in nighless city acting up. To stop that WWX sacrifice himself and he died again. When i read that fic its still ongoing but i dont know what this fic status right know. Thats all i can remember. Thank you! @idontknowwhattowriteforusername

~*~
4. For fic finder, please! I am looking for a modern fic where Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian are raising Jin Ling together and they had a happy little family life, but struggled financially. The two were strippers who eventually catch the eye of Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji who begin to tip them ludicrous amounts of money. I remember the fic laid out their salaries and tips and they were making hundreds of thousands of dollars but they still bemoaned that they were broke and struggling. My confusion over their finances is what I remember most about this fic, lol. Would love to read again, if this rings a bell for anyone! Thank you!

5. Hi I was wondering if you know about a certain fic that takes place during the cloud releases study arc. Where Wei Wuxian wakes up one day suddenly and inexplicably pregnant with an egg. I'm pretty sure its incomplete but I read it a while ago and it was interesting. One of the main parts I remember is Jiang Cheng asking/trying to convince Wei Wuxian that he's not pregnant and it's just a "food baby". @wolfcubx2
~*~
6. Hi! First of all thank you for the existence of this blog, I'm pretty sure it's saved my sanity more than once at this point! I'm looking for a post-canon fic where wwx is telling lwj something like "of course I died screaming, I was being torn apart, but I died calling your name bc you were the only good thing I had in my life"
Unfortunately I can't remember whether it was a long fic or a short fic, or even the rest of the plot, I read too many to keep track lololol so I don't have anything else to go on, but that part really stuck out to me and I wondered if it might ring any bells for anyone else! (And if nothing else I might get a different fantastic recommendation out of the deal!!)
~*~
7. looking for this fic, I don’t remember much but it was abo, modern au with wei ying as an omega and lz as an alpha. there was a part in it where wei ying was presenting to lan zhan and lan zhan was thinking something along the lines of omegas don’t actually do that anymore, or something like that.

8. Hello Hello!!!! So I've scrolled through 20+ pages of my Ao3 history for a fic but can't find it. So I'm hoping yall can help!! Lan Wanji was a vampire who lives alone in the woods away from humans and his family. Wei Wuxian was a traveling merchant who ends up crashing Lan Wanji's place. He breaks the man's privacy by entering a room containing a portrait of Lan Wanji's mom, this inturn leads to Wei Wuxian being kicked out. Lan Wanji feels guilty after a bit and goes out to find him. Wei Wuxian ends up in a bad situation and Lan Wanji attempts to save him. They both end up in like a ravine and Wei Wuxian is near death. The two kiss and Wei Wuxian purposefully cuts his tongue on Lan Wanji's fang. At the taste of Wei Wuxian's blood Lan Wanji goes feral and bites his neck. Wei Wuxian dies right then and there, Lan Wanji is convinced he killed him despite desperately trying to turn him into a vampire. Lan Wanji was successful after a few minutes of mouring and hating himself Wei Wuxian comes to. It ends with a time skip to vampire Wei Wuxian buying something in a market dressed in a sun hat and long sleeves buying something for Lan Wanji @crimson-gay-sought-flower
~*~
9. Hi! Do you know the fic where there's a scene with WWX taking the Wen Remnants away and LWJ is his husband and they kiss goodbye but then WWX tells them no one saw that? I think it might have been a arranged marriage au .. @abijo2024-blog
FOUND? seldom all they seem by Fahye (E, 25k, WangXian, Canon Divergence, Arranged Marriage, or rather Arranged Betrothal, followed by Weapons-Grade Thirst) They're engaged rather than married during the rain scene, but I'd say everything else fits. Hope that helps!

10. Hi!! I'm looking for a fic where wei ying gets his original body back and absolutely no one recognises him. Wei ying doesn't realise this though and walks around gusu in lan clothing. However people start to think lan wangi's gotten a new consort and get mad at him for doing that to wei ying. @louvoilite
FOUND? Is Your Old Body Considered a Halloween Costume? by The_peregrine_falcon (G, 3k, WangXian, WWX's original body, Junior quartet makes an appearance, LWJ is chief cultivator, Fluff,Canon Compliant, Post-Canon) but I don't recall the villagers thinking he was a new consort

12. Fic finder please! I am looking for a fic that I can’t remember if it was time travel (like WWX went back in time) or if it just was au starting with him as a child. Child/teen WWX joins a theatre troupe and he performs a veiled dance at a Nie gathering and teen Huaisang tries to propose to him thinking that WWX was a beautiful female dancer. It is only several years later that they meet again and realize they had that shared moment. It is a WangXian fic, but this is the scene I remember!

Soo ik it's a discontinued fanfic of wanxian , and I'm not sure if it's been deleted or the name is changed but, it was on Wattpad i think, and was called 'i will fix everything ' it starts with Wei yung returning in time to when he was at gusu lan for learning, he is sitting in class when he opens his eyes and is shocked by this fact , but then he sees suibian near him and he unsheathed the sword and slit his throat. later it goes as he shows his memories to everyone and they find a way to save
~*~
14. Hello,
I'm looking for a fic, set Modern day, no magic, where Wei Ying runs away/is kicked out? during high-school and years later Lan Zhan finds him at a framers market/ crowded street? .. the scene I remembered specifically that led me to trying to find it is Lan Zhan calling Jiang Yanli and saying "I found him" after seeing him in the streets, and her thinking he means like at a morgue so she starts crying and so he continues with "I found him alive" ...I think Wei Ying also lives with the wens on their farm ... I realize that that is not alot of information to go on but I read it so long ago, its all i remember, I can't even remember if it is worth searching for to reread but that didn't stop me from spending 3 hours looking before giving up and finding this page to ask
Thank you for taking your free time to to help random people find lost fics! @cassie-joy567

15. Here I am again, begging on my knees: can you help me find a fic where wwx finds a book describing a shrine to a good he's never heard about, and goes out to find it. He ends up discovering lwj ascended a long time ago, but he is bound and his temples were burned and devotees killed by the sects, lead by the Lan. Turns out they bound and imprisoned his body and he can only manifest in his temples, and WWX helps him escape the confinement. It is (was?) a WIP, featuring Wangji and Bichen having human forms, lwj is the one who helps wwx master demonic cultivation, creepy rituals that transfer the conscience of a past sect leader into Xichen, and the one who received wwx's golden core is jyl. Please?

~*~
16. Hi I have been looking for a fic I read and cannot find where Wei Wuxian doesn't realise he and Lan Zhan are dating. I believe it had a scene where the two of them go grocery shopping and run into Lan Zhan's ex, Mo Xuanyu, who tries to persuade Lan Zhan that they should get back together. Obviously, since he believes he has now started seeing Wei Ying he says no. There was something about Wei Ying secretly picking up ice cream for Lan Zhan. If anyone can remember it that would be fabulous, thanks! @funny-it-worked-last-time

~*~
17. Hello, I’m looking for a short M or E rated fic, modern au, where wwx talks on social media, likely TikTok, about the benefits of having an older partner who knows exactly what he wants and communicates that clearly. Lwj is older than wwx and has some sort of corporate/business job. There is a chance this was a single chapter in larger work that is a collection of short fics.
~*~
18. Hi! I'm trying to find a Lán Qǐrén/Wēn Ruòhán fic that was deleted on ao3. The title was "God & Monsters." I don't know the author's exact name but I know it had "jupiter" in the username. It's an time travel fic where LQR goes back in time when he was younger during his studies at cloud recesses with WRH, JFM, YZY, etc. I just know it's not "Cursed couple." @cherry1928rev
~*~
19. Argh! For FF, I'm looking for a time travel fixit where Su Minshan time travels and nopes out of CR study arc. It's written in his pov, and he's kind of Indiana Jonesing it, studying the burial mounds for forgotten magics. ANYWAY hope think it would be easy to find Su Minshan redemption/time travel as being reasonably unique, but no. I even failed to bookmark it so help!! @mreisse

~*~
20. Hi! I remember having read this fic where Lan Zhan is face blind and didn't really notice Wei Wuxian came back to life in a different body, because he just recognised wwx's behavior. It was a very sweet fic and I'd love to read it again, but I totally forgot what it was called and I don't think I bookmarked it :(
I'm pretty sure I read it on ao3, but perhaps it could have just been a tumblr post.
I hope someone knows which fic I'm talking about, but I'm also open to other fics where Lan Zhan (or other characters) are face blind. @ifyourelostjustlookforme
FOUND! Faces by osiesaur (G, 1k, WangXian, lwj is faceblind, wwx and lwj are both learning to communicate better, WWX in MXY's body, they're married, LWJ POV)

Summary: the hunt for jewels had begun, so Laswell decides to pass her off as a human and send her to the British military base under the command of a colleague, all this without him knowing her true identity to protect her (sorry, I don't know how to summarize).

A tense silence filled the air as they watched the CIA operative, a colleague of their captain for years, through the screen. The woman had initiated a video call to discuss the new team member, which had made them nervous ever since they found out she was human and not a hybrid or monster.
For Ghost, this posed a problem that would affect the team in upcoming missions. Moreover, she was an outsider, and years of betrayal had made him deeply distrustful and more cautious than ever. Whenever they allied with others, he requested their files and scrutinized them thoroughly before gaining more information.
The matter of coexistence between hybrids, monsters, and humans remained complicated. Despite their high ranks in the military, they still faced looks of disdain, disgust, hatred, and cruel words for not being entirely human. Even though humans were cruel and ruthless, they treated them as the only beasts in their hypocrisy.
Kate sighed for the tenth time in what had been just an hour-long meeting.
"I understand you may have doubts and even rejection toward this new addition," Kate said, staring directly at Ghost through the camera, "but she is necessary this time. She'll be a great addition to the team."
"She’s human," the tallest one interjected, his voice slightly muffled by the balaclava. "She’ll only bring trouble."
"She won’t cause you any problems; you have my word." Laswell locked eyes with Price, the man who had remained silent. He had already discussed things with the woman privately and was now letting his pack weigh in. "She’s not just any human. She’ll help you, and she might even teach you a few things."
"Like what?" asked the Scot.
That was the cue for Price to step in, setting an open folder on the table. The five men moved closer to take a look. Ghost was the first to reach it, despite being farther from the table.
"She’s given permission for us to see the first two pages of her file." Price’s voice was calm, as always. "She’ll be supporting us in the medical field." He handed one page to Ghost while the other went to the only dark-skinned member of the group. "She’s a combat medic, specializing in emergency medical-surgical care."
"Aeris Williams, no photo," Soap mentioned, standing next to Ghost. The others crowded around to see the first page.
"It’s for her safety," Laswell replied, "and she’s worked for several private military contractors." Through the camera, they could see the woman drumming her fingers on the table. Price noticed she was nervous.
"She’s worked with the competition, Laswell," Gaz pointed out upon seeing KorTac’s name. "What assurance do we have that she won’t leak information about us?"
"She’s a professional, and as her file shows, she’s worked with more than just that contractor. If she’d leaked information, she would’ve been blacklisted and imprisoned for breaching contractual terms by now," the woman defended her. "She’s highly qualified to join the team."
"It also says she worked with the ghosts. That’s impossible." Ghost tossed the page back onto the table. Price pulled out a cigar from his pocket, lighting it with fire that flared from deep in his throat. The attitude he was most concerned about was Simon’s.
"It’s true," the captain answered on behalf of Laswell, "and not just as a medic, but also as a soldier. She’s participated in counter-terrorist operations, rescue missions, infiltration, and reconnaissance; she’s highly experienced on the battlefield."
"She’s a veteran," Laswell added. "And as hard as it may be to believe, she’s even more experienced than Price." The men looked at their captain, who nodded as he took another drag from his cigar. "You could learn a thing or two from her, if you’re willing. And... there’s something about her that you might like." Price smiled, knowing what was coming.
"What’s that?" Gaz placed the other page back on the table, his black wings stretching slightly behind his back.
"She worked with the Shadows under Graves’ command." The room, except for Price and Kate, erupted in growls at the mention of the man they considered scum.
"She worked with that bastard? How could that please us?" Alejandro’s thick Mexican accent came through as he scowled at the mention of the man. Of them all, and especially the two Mexicans, Alejandro harbored the most resentment toward Phillip Graves. After all, the man had taken his base and his men during their time in Las Almas several years ago.
"That’s not the best part." Price approached the table with the cigar in his mouth, slipping the pages back into the folder. "There’s a very good reason why there’s no information in her file about working with the Shadows."
Soap raised an eyebrow, as did Alejandro. The men watched as a smile formed on their captain’s face and on the woman’s face through the screen.
"The reason is, she almost beat Graves to death with her bare fists." Surprise quickly spread across the faces of the group. Alejandro was the first to laugh, wearing his typical smile as his shoulders shook slightly from the laughter.
He was followed by Rodolfo, who chuckled lightly.
Gaz had his head tilted slightly, a small smile on his lips. Soap mirrored the expression, while Ghost remained silent.
"What was her excuse?" Rodolfo asked with curiosity after he stopped laughing.
Kate shrugged slightly before replying.
"She simply said he was an idiot."
"That’s a solid argument," Gaz commented.
"I’m already starting to like her," Soap said, flicking his tail.
"So, the lady almost killed him," Alejandro murmured beside Rodolfo. "Guess we should give her a chance, then."
Ghost looked at his pack before sighing.
"I’ll keep an eye on her."
"I appreciate your willingness," Kate clasped her hands on the desk. "Now, I’ll give you some recommendations to keep in mind for your safety."
●❯────────────────❮●
"We'll arrive in five minutes, Doc," the pilot announced over the communicators. "It was a pleasure flying with you."
She smiled as she took off her tactical helmet, just like Kamli and her other companion.
"Likewise, Jack. But this is more of a see you later than a goodbye," she replied before cutting off communication again. "Do you think the captain will be offended for not arriving yesterday?" She looked at the tallest of the three.
Kamli took off his helmet like she did, letting out a sigh.
"I don't think so. He knows beforehand that sometimes things happen unexpectedly. Besides, Laswell informed him we would be delayed." His piercing eyes landed on her. "Don't worry about the minor details. There are other things to be concerned about."
"Kamli is right," interjected the other accompanying them, a hybrid of Arctic hare; he was her assistant. "You should save your energy for the problems that exist at that base on a medical level; the anomalies in those records are troubling, boss."
She sighed as she saw the enormous base, spotting several people waiting in the landing area.
"Alright, let's do this."
The helicopter began its descent while the three prepared themselves. Kamli adjusted his gloves, she pulled her black Buff up to her nose, and her assistant grabbed the straps of one of the four military deployment bags they had brought, excluding the huge 25-kilogram first aid kit.
They felt evaluative gazes on them, especially on her and Kamli due to their height. They unbuckled their seatbelts and descended slightly hunched over as a precaution while the blades continued spinning powerfully.
She moved to the front and signaled to Jack to take off again.
Then she turned and made eye contact with the man in the hat and beard, who smiled politely at her. Kate had mentioned his appearance before they left.
"You must be Captain Price, right?" She approached the man and shook his hand. The scaly tail swayed slowly, but she held back her questions. "Aeris Williams," she introduced herself, "but I prefer to be called Harper."
Kamli and her assistant also approached, positioning themselves to her left and right.
Price nodded.
"Captain John Price." The man looked at her before addressing the two companions behind her. "Laswell mentioned that only two of you were coming."
From his tone, Aeris understood she needed to clarify things. Price was still an alpha, and as such, he liked to know who was coming in and out of his base. The arrival of another male without prior notice could be seen as an invasion of his territory.
Kamli was also an alpha, which could trigger an internal struggle to prove who had power over whom if they didn't communicate properly.
"I apologize for the last-minute surprise, Captain. We come from a small mission," she responded calmly. "The big guy next to me is Kamli Sharma, my partner in operations and missions." Kamli nodded at those present, looking at them neutrally with no signs of confrontation. "And he is Jim Parker, my right hand."
Parker also nodded; the man had noticed the gazes on his non-human limbs and ears but ignored them, as they merely indicated curiosity.
"No problem," Price stepped aside, revealing four members of his pack. "This is Gaz." The dark-skinned man stepped forward and shook her hand while slightly stretching his black wings; from the type and color of his wings, she deduced he was a hybrid of raven or harpy.
"Soap," the lighter-eyed one introduced himself with a smile; his accent revealed he was Scottish. His enthusiastic eyes and tail wagging behind him made it clear he was a wolf. "Two of us are missing who couldn't come; they'll show up later." He nodded towards the man in the skull-patterned balaclava. "And he is Ghost."
The one in the mask didn’t respond; his gaze was fixed on Kamli. The height difference between the two was evident, with Kamli being the taller at two meters.
Unlike the others, Ghost showed no indication of what kind of hybrid or monster he was.
"Kamli." His warning tone was enough to make the man stop staring him straight in the eyes.
The others had noticed the small confrontation between the two hybrids, so Price intervened.
"I'll give you a brief tour if you're not too tired." Aeris smiled through her buff.
"We're fine, Captain." She grabbed the first aid kit and slung it on her back before taking one of the bags, while Kamli grabbed the two remaining ones. "We can hold out a bit longer."
"Alright." Price turned halfway and began the tour, allowing Aeris to stay at his side and not behind him. That was a good sign; it meant he recognized her as an equal. "This base is larger than the others since we have more resources; I can give you a map while you get accustomed."
The base was undoubtedly big, just as Price had said, and the map would be useful for orientation in the first few days. Given her role as a combat medic, Aeris had certain privileges, such as the right to a room with its own bathroom, away from the dormitories for greater privacy, which she appreciated. She was also assigned an office at Kate's request for the tedious paperwork related to the anomalies in the medical processes of the base.
It was impressive that, despite being completely adapted for hybrids and monsters, there were more humans.
As they walked through the hallways and different recreation rooms, Aeris noticed small packs formed, all being cautious as they passed. She even observed some injured individuals with poorly placed bandages, suggesting that medical care for the non-humans was, at best, lacking in certain aspects.
She had a lot of work to do, but at least she wouldn't be bored.
However, she was sure she would face resistance from the medical staff if more of her suspicions turned out to be true, much to her dismay.
They returned to their room under the curious gaze of those present at seeing the three staying in the same space. Their excuse was that they had things to discuss, so the pack said no more, just nodded, and left them alone.
"They noticed your behavior, didn't they?"
"They must have a very poor relationship with the medical area; their bandages are poorly placed, and even one is not suitable for the type of injury," Jim remarked. "I think they did it themselves; someone trained wouldn't make such simple mistakes."
"It's clear they aren't being treated according to protocol," Kamli growled, "and yet, the miserable ones dare to ask for raises."
"Laswell suspects they are also smuggling medications, and I think so too," Aeris sighed as she took off her tactical vest. "For now, it would be better to rest, especially you; tomorrow you must return to the field." She lightly tapped the bed for them to climb up. That night, the three would sleep in the same bed; it was a custom they had adopted upon arriving in new places, as the protective instincts of the two hybrids were at their highest during the first two days.

My Apocalypse Challenge Rules
@coriel-muroz asked me which rules I'm using for my Apocalypse Challenge, and I promised I'd post them. They are largely Phaenoh's, but with a few tweaks/additions by me, which will be written in red. Some of these changes just made sense to me, others I decided to implement because I found they made things more fun (for me).
Mind you, these are just the Restriction Level 1 rules, because I'm nowhere near unlocking Level 2.
Restriction Level #1
You cannot move in or marry in any Sims or pets until the founder reaches the top of their Career.
Family Aspiration Perks may not be redeemed before the above requirement has been met. Interesting Rule Change:
Here you should include a few community lots in your hood at the moment. A military base, a soup kitchen/food bank, and a First Aid station may be built and sims may visit them a few times provided they follow certain rules. While these comm lots *may* include items currently restricted, such as a restaurant stove to feed the hungry. They still need to be very VERY limited.
As for visiting them, the entire family needs to visit when you go. Protection in numbers, you can't leave anyone at home either. If you have toddlers or infants currently, you will have to wait. You may only go out once a week, and you need to visit all before going to any a second time.
Going out only once a week means the rest of the time your founder Sim will be stuck at home skilling/going to work, which is a little dull. The most interesting/fun situations take place on community lots, so I decided to let them visit one community lot per day, instead of all of them in one day.
Your sims may NOT take a job without visiting their new 'place of employment' first. Send your founder down to the military base, first aid station, or soup kitchen to become their newest 'recruit'. Community lots are allowed to break their own rules but no others. You are allowed to eat at the Culinary community lot, and you are allowed to fish at the Oceanography lot, however, you can't have electrical lights at the Medical facility until Science has been lifted, understand?
I can't be bothered getting a bunch of non-electrical lights, plus I have plenty of cool apocalyptic light fixtures, so I get around this restriction by placing a (decorative) generator on each lot. There, electricity is working again!
Update/Rule Change: Teen jobs are restricted even further. Its really just not safe enough out for teens to go by themselves. They may join the military, but if they want to be in medical or culinary, they may only take that job if one of the adults in the house also has that job. Once they themselves are adults they may, of course, switch jobs by visiting a different career center comm lot.
Culinary
You may only prepare food once per sim day. Once any Sim has prepared food, no other may do so for the rest of the day. A Sim making a one-serving meal counts. Baby bottles do not. Filling any pet food bowl counts against the family's "one meal per day".
Sims may not purchase or use anything from the Ovens or Small Appliance category except for the cheapest grill. I also used a hotplate I downloaded, which I think is appropriate. Its hunger rating is only 1.
Grilled Cheese Aspiration Perks may not be redeemed.
Sims may not prepare Gelatin.
Sims may not purchase or use the Nectar Bar or Vending Machines.
Sims may not Give Treats to pets.
Sims may not use the Tea Time table.
Sims may not purchase or use birthday cakes, wedding cakes, the bakery display case or any catering buffet tables.
Sims may NOT store leftovers – in the fridge, in inventory, marked for sale, or in a display case.
Sims may not prepare food, purchase, or eat on community lots, save for one plate per sim at the Food Center. What's the point of building a food center if it's just for show?
You may not use the Delivery menu on the phone to order Pizza or Chinese food.
Only Sims in the Culinary career track can make use of the Chocolate Maker.
Once a Culinary master emerges from the household, new ways are invented to preserve food. Sims learn better ways to cook the artificial food and how to rewire home appliances so they can be used again. They also open up supply chains to coffee growers. All Culinary restrictions are lifted.
Medical
Sims may not use medicine to become well.
You may not give dogs a bath or purchase or use the litter box.
No showers, Medicine Cabinet, or changing tables may be purchased or used.
If a rain collector is present on the lot (there's one in the Castaways conversions packs), a sim may have a bath after it has rained. The rest of the time I keep the tub in their inventory so they can't sneak a bath when I'm not looking. I might also download a mod to enable Sponge Baths at all times.
Pools,sprinklers, hot tubs, and saunas may not be built or used.
Whenever Sims Woohoo, they MUST choose Try for Baby.
That's not how it works, nobody is fertile 100% of the time. Instead, I enable Risky Woohoo in ACR with a fairly high chance of pregnancy (20%)
Sims may not purchase Vamprocillin-D, WitchBeGone, Lycanthropic-B, or Plantophic-C.
Only Sims currently employed in the Medical career may use the Surgical Dummy
Once a leader in the medical field emerges from the family and leads the Red Cross restoration effort, clean running water is restored to the region. Supplies of medicine and contraceptives are now available to the people who need it. The Medical restrictions are lifted.
Military
Sims may not travel to any community lots, except to the required three once a week.
You may not invite over any Sims with two exceptions:
Sims may invite over other Sims they are have red hearts with, or are engaged to. (True love knows no fear.)
If your Sim owns a car (and has it placed on a driveway on the lot), you may also invite over Sims your Sim is best friends with. (Your Sim spins by and picks the buddies up.)
You may purchase the Military Maxis Car after reaching lvl 6.
Teenage Sims may not Ask Permission to Go Out or Sneak Out
Sims may not go Hiking/Jogging or Walk off the lot. I make an exception for Psychosim's Zombie Hunting mod, because it's just so thematically appropriate (military Sims only, ofc)
Only Sims currently in the military can use the Obstacle Course object.
Sims in the military can offer self-defence training to other members of the community at the Obstacle Course. They can't protect everyone all the time, and this way Sims can become better able to fend off zombie attacks. (Community Lot Skilling mod needed)
Once a brave general from the family leads the local National Guard in a strike force against the zombie hordes, the streets will become safe to travel again and the Military restriction is lifted. This is also where I plan to get rid of my Zombie Apocalypse mod (and the zombies) but it's up to you!
Security Pet Zombies, mobsters, anarchists, burglars . . . there is a lot out there that can get you. Even if these threats don't directly harm Sims, the fear of them does. A thick blanket of paranoia has spread over the region. Sleep does not come easy to a fearful mind, and the idea of these bad guys out to get them is enough to keep most Sims awake at night.
Sims may not sleep in a bed or on a couch with an Energy rating higher than 3.
Once a family pet is inducted to the Pet Corps, Sims begin to rid themselves of paranoia and get in the habit of sleeping soundly at night. The Service Pet restriction is lifted. If you do not have Pets EP, then this restriction becomes part of the Military restriction, and is lifted when that one is.

Lust by Nature {Part 3}
Masterlist, Part 1, Part 2, Part 4
Read on ao3
Pairing: Captain John Price x fem!Reader
MDNI: 18+!
Warnings for this chapter: sex dream that verges somno, blood and injury
Word Count: ~7k
Summary: His lap is your favorite spot in the world, a sneaky little energy grab while dream-walking, and oh no! some blood :(
A/N: Chapter 3! I had so much planned for this, then wrote more and more so the original ch. 3 is now into two parts, meaning another chapter gets added to this. I hope ye enjoy
Price wasn’t caring for you. That much was certain.
Correction: Price wasn’t caring for your needs.
Three months.
Three months and still no sex. You expect he’s doing his best to fill his thick head with pure thought to ward off any boners.
He allowed small touches for technical purposes which gave a small boost of energy to you, but only barely. The previous feast on a mission in a drug ring fed you well enough, having been left with bodies barely alive before giving them the sickly sweet send-off to death while letting them taste the carnal sin you could procure.
John’s belief held you as being able to feed from the other men who desired you. Everywhere you went you could make a man or woman (a rare few on base at this time) hard and wet with desire. You trained with other soldiers, killed on missions, and while it helped and kept your energy up, it wasn’t enough. Sure, you took plenty enough of lives when the boys had so graciously left a straggler or two for you as they bled out, but the whittled-away energy of a man with bullets in him made the meal a bit dull.
Sometimes the question of Price being an angel himself would weigh in your mind, the hallucination of a golden halo crowning him in the darkness behind your eyelids as you watched him speak or bark orders while standing in the sunlight.
You remember that he certainly can’t be. He kills and kills again, the wolf himself still has a handler no matter how much he barks- never biting until directed. For the most part.
Price is cruel with the allotted sweetness he supplied. It's been driving you up a wall, a reluctantly familiar itch crawling in your chest. He’d pet your hair when deeming a job well done, sometimes even wrangling you by the horns when needing to re-direct your attention. Softer moments started to build up the more you learned and were able to help him complete his tasks, being sure to reserve time for only you and him during the day.
Yet he still wouldn’t fuck you. He wouldn’t use you, not even letting it get to that point.
And truthfully, it doesn’t matter. You could enchant anyone you wanted into getting your way, but already feeling and smelling the arousal these bone-dry soldiers felt for you. But you couldn’t do it.
Something inside your heart, filled with magic and sin, kept your sights on Price only. Long days had you passing by recruits with such ease of temptation just to take them into the locker room and let them relieve stress. Yet the moment you saw Price, you could feel your pupils turning into hearts. Theoretically.
Your military contract asserted your role into the new CO’s life, expecting easy sex and some sort of flippant attitude that would be a double positive. Meeting the man who does more than just take his commands to regurgitate them out onto his subordinates, Price showed resilience, respect, and a leading figure of someone who lived beyond each sacrifice he gave.
Sue you for having issues relating to the figures high in power and holding authority over you, but the stability he had to offer was the pillar the team used day in and day out. In terms of being the newest addition in an environment that offered more humanity than your past facility, your claws clung to him on the chance that he’d be attentive with guidance and any reprimands that are followed with assured praise.
It only made you burn for him.
The feeling of his gloved hands tight on your sides while practicing stealth drills, as if glued to your back to teach you his gait. Hearing his voice first thing in the morning before he’s spoken, his croaks send a shiver down your legs. When you waited in the locker room on purpose just to catch sight of his pink skin that highlighted the various sized and placed scars over his body. The smell of his cologne when he brought you to the bar with the boys after a job well done.
That first taste you had of him, that silly child's play of a kiss during the mission. Like a spiced honey, you wanted to drip all over your body and let it soak its way inside of you.
This man makes your demon quiver like she’s a holy saint sinning for the first time.
The days filled with paperwork, and not your Captain, made everything blur together enough to make your eyes tired, you’d whine over it being a task you never had to do before. It was frustrating for you and the team, making them feel like they were preschool teachers.
On the rare occasions that training would end early, Price would utilize this to spend time in the dimmed yellow light of his office as you sit next to him.
Papers strewn over your small work area while he kept his in neat piles. The sound of your keyboards clacking fills the silence before the shuffling of papers interrupts, small hums from either of you when checking details and recording operations management.
The room fills with a lingering haze as his cigar burns slowly, settled in the ashtray while typing, and back to his lips when reading over his work. Finishing a large chunk of interpreting and typing the reconnaissance intel, you lean back to watch as the cherry lights up when he inhales. His eyes are somewhat blurred by the glasses he wears, reflecting the screen while his body bathes in the warm light.
“You need sumthin’?” He grumbles from around the cigar, looking at you once he pops it out of his mouth.
“Why do you smoke cigars instead of cigarettes sometimes?” There’s no stutter in your question as he calls you out.
“Makes me feel like ‘m not in a rush. No need to worry of the end when there's plenty to it.” He brings it back up, taking a drag while watching you watch him. After a moment, he sits up and leans towards your place; Adjacent to him on the end of his desk while he sits on your right in his office chair.
“You ever try one?”
The bridge of your nose crinkles, a faint memory playing behind your eyes. “No. General would always be smoking one when I was brought in, didn’t like the smell.”
Price’s eyes widen for a second, quickly moving the cigar away and clearing his throat. “You could’ve said something, wouldn’t been smoking in ‘ere if I knew tha'.” He gently snubs the cherry but the grasp of your hand on his wrist halts him.
“It’s fine. It's different. I like this one.” You wave him off with no fuss.
His hand pauses, holding it still as his eyebrow quirks. “Whats it smell like?”
It takes a second to think over. He usually tends to stick to something earthy in flavoring, having only changed up the scent on special occasions. You can remember the first one being sweet when you came to this base, and on his hard days were ones that reeked of wood tones.
“Like you.” A shrug accompanies your answer, looking up to meet his gaze that now stills while his breath fans over your hand that keeps on his wrist. The sound of your voice is warmer than the buzz the first hit gives him after a long day, and you both can tell that his body likes it when you speak like that. Reserved for him.
“Would you want to try it?” He offers the half-smoked cigar to you, gently balancing it between his fingers.
Sliding your hand up his wrist to take the cigar between your fingers only to watch him as it meets your lips. The feeling is heavy and a bit confusing.
Sucking in, you quickly choke. Shaking your head as you hand the damn trap back to him, his light chuckle sounds out. “You’re not s’possed to swallow it, sweetheart.” His eyes take in steady heed of infatuation at your failed attempt, and the curl of his lips show a genuine smile.
“But I always swallow, Sir.”
You can never keep your mouth shut, can you? He pauses, mouth parting before clicking shut and narrowing his eyes. He looks away as the muscles of his mouth flex.
Trying not to laugh.
“I wonder if it's the lads getting to you, or just how you are.” Finally, he gives his attention back to you for a moment, watching as you clean up your work area. It's your turn to feel his stare at you. The sweeping of attention your body can feel prickling and preening at, loving his focus as it sweeps across your form. “And stop calling me Sir.”
“I see it as a form of respect, Captain.” You tidy your piles of paper, shifting back to your laptop and readjusting your seat. There's a slight flash of something just beneath the waistband of your fatigues.
Out of nowhere, he tosses a pen to the other side of the desk on your left.
“You mind picking that up for me, doll?” If he’d thrown a rabid dog and asked in that voice, you’d surely say yes.
The questioning glare he receives doesn’t escape him, but you comply nonetheless. Now bent over, the hem of your shirt rides up to reveal the flesh of your side. A tattoo reveals itself.
As soon as your hands grasp the pen from the floor, you startle at the touch of his hand on your stomach. “What-”
“This a tattoo?” His fingertips trace over the slightly exposed skin, taking a dive in and commanding the shirt to move from his touch as he brings his fingers under it.
Still slightly caught off guard, yet the touch is so gratifying that you almost purr in response. “‘S a succubus sigil. Mine specifically.” Leaning back and drawing your shirt up like a puppy asking for belly rubs, showing the expanse of it as it reaches from hip to hip. The design is tribal to your being; a heart that seemingly has wings of sharp lines that curve on the bottom of your stomach- Your womb.
“Did this come with your... form?” He asks after meeting your gaze, still not moving his hand away but tracing it with firm pressure as if to see it peel off or be raised.
“Mmm.” You nod, trying to contain the moan behind a tight-lipped hum. “Would come up on my mate too.”
The movement on your stomach stops just as you are a second away from moving your hips closer to plead for more. “Mate?” He stills, hand stopping and regrettably pulling back as he sits to look at you. “Whadya’ mean mate?”
Oh, that's right. You never told him. But there was a section in the contract! Your subconscious screams at you, and now irked at the daft man for not reading through a man-made document that was formative on a demon.
He stifles a cough when he looks back to you; The shirt still being raised to expose the soft and delicate-looking skin of your stomach meets him, legs spread, and head tilted down with a glare through your lashes. You’re pouting.
“Price…” You start, voice low with a bass in it while still having feminine notes. It sounds like the call of the wind when he’s posted in the mountains for a stakeout and brings a shiver to the inside of his ears.
“Why’re you looking at me like that.” His face is seemingly neutral, but his eyes twitch a fraction wider at your stare.
“You didn’t read my contract.” The ethereal-sounding voice teases his ears again. He’s ashamed that he can feel his dick twitch in interest at this sudden flip of your attitude, now having to resist the urge to cross his legs to hide the blood filling it. You drop your shirt down, and a coy smile floats up to your lips. “Did you, sir?”
“I still have a few pages left.” He chuffs while looking away to distract himself and his mouth with the cigar. “You gonna explain?” He tries to shift the power of this conversation back to him as he asks in nonchalance, spreading his legs to seem comfortable.
“Being a succubi’s mate brings something shallow but deeper than what normal humans could give. Our mate is a safe heaven; Someone who loves us for what we do. For understanding, we’re more than what we’re created to be.” Like a tether, you shift forward to step between the desk and himself. “Our mate understands that we have needs that have to be satiated, while we understand that humans rely on a relationship beyond physical cravings.”
Seating yourself on the edge of his desk, standing between his legs, the blue of his eyes sharply contrasts your red ones. “We sacrifice our innate, greedy, sinning hunger to fall in love.”
The pregnant pause is enough to let the moment sink into the walls of his office, his inner monologue going off the rails right now.
Tension sits in his eyebrow line, jaw, and in the air between you. “That so?”
“Very, much so.” Cheekily smiling back at him as you’ve firmly planted the idea in his head, the hem of your shirt rises to let the tattoo peek back out.
“Now, can we get back to you petting me?”
“Petting?” He chortles as if to ease whatever tense emotion settled over his mind, a kind that had alarm bells ringing in his head. “You’re not a dog. I was jus’ looking at your mark.” He breaks eye contact to look at his monitors, waking them up with a wave of the mouse. “You’re more like a cat, anyways.” He adds with a mumble.
“Oh, I’ve got a pretty kitty for you to pet.” The giggle that leaves your lips brings a sweet ringing in his ear. His dick twitches again, and this time with more blood flowing down at the image of your whats between your legs.
His hand comes up to take his glasses off as he discards the cigar in the ashtray, and then a stifled groan leaves his lips. “Cut the shit, Saint.” His elbows placed on the table make his back arch, and you can see his muscles traverse in waves over his shoulder blades. “You need to finish your report.”
“Just for a little bit?” While he’s distracted, you move closer to stand between his legs while trailing fingers over the sigil. “I’ll scratch your back.”
Price’s head lolls to the side, finding you much closer than expected. The motion of your tail swaying playfully behind you gains an advantage; You’re playful in all of this, all the while a beautiful woman creature that has a face worthy of melting hearts and a body that could melt dicks and cunts alike, there is a sort of black cat-like quality to you. Hunting for prey either in the shadows or wanting to toy with it.
An even steeper spike of arousal catches your nose, wanting nothing more for him to be as easy as Soap is on a bad day. You’ve never taken up the opportunity, but you still think about it.
Pursing his lips, a sigh escapes him while rubbing his hands over his face. “If this gets you to shut up and finish your work, fine.” He leans back in his chair, re-situating himself before you move to straddle his lap. “Only for a little bit.”
To your surprise, a sound of content leaves him as you settle, and feel his large arms come to wrap around your waist. “You’re a furnace- are you sick?” The inside of his wrist comes up to check your forehead for a fever, finding it warm.
“I just run that way. Something with my magic.” Humming, and nuzzling into his neck, the huff of you breathing him in makes his skin prickle. His hand returns to your waist.
A moment of silence passes, breathing with each other with only the steady hum of his computer filtering into the background noise. “You gonna scratch my back or not, sweetheart?” You can feel the rumble of his words end with a chuckle against your chest and in the muscles of your throat.
At the queue, your hands slide down beneath his shirt to start sliding the tips of your nails across his skin. A small sound of surprise leaves him as you pull up his shirt but quickly cuts off by a groan as he slumps against you.
“Fuck- Haven’t felt that in a long time.” The pull of a smile on his lips against your neck as he leans into the crook of it. His body shakes in a full tremor and his hands squeeze tighter; A hiss is pulled out of him as you reach the top of his shoulders and bring your nails down in long, cruelly slow, strokes. “Feels so wonderful, angel.”
While the petname is ironic, it still means you're getting to him. Being so close to him, the smell of his steadying arousal almost gets you high. Repeating the motion, you relaxed a bit more onto his lap to settle your weight to settle yourself over his hardening cock.
“Glad you like it.”
Leading him into your warm embrace, the chills shivering up his spine misplace his senses as your added weight and plush ass on his lap doesn’t register until the first slow roll manifests a throaty growl from him.
One hand holds you still with an unrelenting squeeze of your hip as the other shoots up to grab at your tail. A sharp gasp sounds before your back arches, nails digging into his back while you can’t help but look to the ceiling with bowed eyes.
“Behave, Saint.” He husks from above you, the height difference still even allowing him to see your face as you sit in his lap. “I’m gonna kick you out of this damn office if you’re going to act like this.”
“Please, Price.” The tips of your fangs drop a bit lower at the ache to kiss him and drag them along his skin, your pussy already beginning to soak your underwear.
While you’d normally be in control of the entire situation when having sex, Price was different. When a succubus was able to crave someone and hold a significant want and lust, they became the pleasure sought after. You craved Price like no other because there was no other. You behaved just enough to know that if he didn’t actively want it, you’d be broken. Body, mind, and soul.
A click of your teeth has him watching as you attempt to bite at his face before fighting against his hold to grind down again. He pulls your tail tighter.
“I’m hungry.” A smile taints your lips this time, unable to hide the humor in how hard he fights against giving in while his dick is now rock-hard underneath you. “We both know how much you’d enjoy it.”
His eyes narrow, jaw clenched in anger, at himself or you- probably both. Grinning like the devil you are, you take his lapse in concentration to bounce softly on his lap.
“Fuckin’ hell.” He groans, and you whimper. Just dry humping and imagining him pumping inside of you, the pull of the seam against your clit, both make your folds plump with sensitivity.
Another bounce, ending with a roll that strokes his cock.
“It’s my lap or nothing. I’m not helping you get off.” His resolve cracks, releasing your tail down to knead your ass, fingertips digging in harshly.
Needing no further instruction, you set the pace in slow rolls that drag across his lap. Bringing out soft grunts, it revels inside of you as your walls flutter around emptiness.
When the grinding isn't enough, you settle for bouncing again; Relying on the rough material of your pants to pull at your panties and clit. His eyes dart up from your hips, caught watching how erotic you move, yet he’s not afraid to smirk as you cup his jaw, bringing his lips close.
“Kiss me.”
“No.”
Groaning from the denial, you keep moving. There’s still a chance for you to win him over, how trained can a man be when he’s got a beautiful creature spurring him on?
“It’s not like we haven’t kissed before.”
“I already said no. You ain’t gonna shake me.”
Your lips draw up in a sneer at being told no. That's not supposed to happen.
“Did you not get what you wanted, sweet girl?” His hand moves from your neck to stroke hair away from your face, but still leaves the other on your ass.
“You’re a prick”
The growl that leaves you is quiet. It would startle any human, but Price knows you. He only hums in response, moving to grab the cigar before inhaling and leaning back into the chair.
What a cocky bastard.
“Don’t be a brat. You knew I let you sit here not for that reason.” The hand on your ass leaves a sharp sting once it spanks you, the sound echoing in the quiet room. It sends a shiver to your wet cunt, feeling a mini-tremor in it.
“This is my favorite spot, don’t you know?”
“Spots’ not on tha map, Saint.”
When you left his office, you at least felt good about the wet spot on his lap.
~~~
On nights before a mission, you’d consider slithering your consciousness to Price, debating on dream walking to bring him dreams filled with you, filled of him. The promiscuity of diving into his dreams and allowing him to ruin you in a haze cradled your consciousness in a steady fire.
Tomorrow, you’ll be out for a long excursion with the team in the woodlands of Australia. You’ve been there before, remembering being fresh into your transformation and visiting a plethora of military bases. At the time, you were being shown off at Pine Gap like a traveling circus, bored from the land being too obnoxious for any fun- because of course, you had tried to fight a kangaroo when your handlers weren’t looking.
Dreamwalking was something you’d engaged with rarely, as the humans in the compound didn’t sleep there. You’d practice putting them in a trance and had gained enough experience in succeeding when they left your cell block rotation as a heavy flush coated their face.
Price was designated to keep you in the barracks room by his, at the end of the hallway where his only neighboring room was yours. The team that created a military position for a succubus knew what needed to happen, and they were not afraid to set parameters and expectations that Price had to follow before your arrival.
Tonight, as your body finds its tether to his mind, you're ready to cloud and confuse his logic with pleasure. A cloudy and warm rush to his senses makes Price’s body stir when the sudden feeling of you lying atop him settles on his muscles and mind. With a slow grinding roll of your hips, your fangs sneak out just a bit more to leave a light mark under his jaw as your hands knead at his firm chest. He can see you, feel you naked with him under the covers of his bed. Your soft but firm legs straddle his waist as a hand rakes through his hair to give a tug causing a soft hiss to leave him.
“How th’ fuck you get in ‘ere, love?” He manages to push out past his lips in a soft grumble, the rough calluses of his hands skimming down to the curve of your hips before squeezing the flesh of your ass.
And fuck, when the pet name slips out no doubt due to his drowsiness, it makes you clench on nothing while being in your own room a few yards away from his.
“You let me in, sir.” The answer comes back to him in a matched tone, working to slide your wetness over his growing arousal. “Hope that’s alright with you.”
Feeling the tip of him push against your clit and noting he’s already hard, your hand trails behind you to line him up with your fluttering hole. The grip on your ass tightens, his blunt fingernails dig in as he bucks in hazy anticipation. It's enough to catch the rim of your hole but slipping in the wrong direction.
Price, far too gone as your sense of lust clouds his mind, pushes your ear against his lips as he takes himself in hand and lines up with your entrance again. “Impatient thing, aren’t you?”
Not giving you enough time to answer, he pushes the tip in letting it settle before grabbing your hip while the other hand pulls your hair in a tight fist. “I’ll let you bloody ‘ave it.” He groans in your ear. You leave yourself amazed at how real it feels, seemingly forgotten of the unused power at the ready for your next meal.
A small hiccup leaves your lips as he slides in; Not too long but his girth made up for everything. It’s been so long, your inner demon laughing at you as if you were a virgin again but crying out in time with your pulses as you feel fed for the first time in months.
“Gods, so fucking hot-” Price drones on, sounding half asleep and drunk on lust by the way his speech slurs in soft whispers. “Hottest pussy I’ve ever had.” If you were in his bed you’d truly laugh at him speaking on your internal temperature.
“You’ve never had anything like me.” Moving to help the tired man, your hips go down to meet his ever-languid thrust up. His hand on your ass holds your lower back as his knees pick up once planting his ankles on the mattress.
“Ain't that right.” He retorts, a light scoff coming from him as he buries his head to find your neck to leave long, sloppy kisses against the soft skin. “Use my cock, baby, know you’ve been wantin’ it. Be a good girl an’ use it.”
With his permission and the subtle need to show him what he’s been missing out on, you take the lead. Planting your hands on his chest and sitting up, you bounce on his cock with steady vigor. Each clap of your skin hitting his sounds real. Enough to be more than just a dream. His grunts, shaky curses, and heavy breaths ring out in the space of his mind as he drives up to meet your soaked walls.
“Jus’ like tha- gonna make me come already. God, I’m gonna-” Snake down to lay your chest against his, bouncing your hips in quick movements.
“Inside. Keep it in.” His mind still fails to register that protection was nowhere near a consideration as his body runs hot. His hands grab control to pump himself up into you in rough and steady slams of one, two, three, before stilling and twitching inside of you.
The shiver that coils your spine in a curve is erotic; The way your mouth parts in a beautiful ‘o’ shape, tits pushed out for him to take in his mouth while your body shakes from the orgasm of being fed his spend. His breath pants over your pert nipples, biting them gently with a low groan before settling you over him. You wish you could stay more to hear his pillow talk but the more talking to happen and keep yourself there is a waste of time and energy.
“Goodnight, Price.”
~~~
Sunlight greeted Price when he awoke to his blaring alarm, grumbling while shooting a hand out to silence the forsaken thing. Usually an early riser and far too used to the normalcy of the early mornings, he felt like a cinderblock sinking to the bottom of the Boston River.
A right fucking tea party in his pants, that's for sure.
With every second his eyes are closed, he can feel the phantom movement of your hips on his which has him already twitching his morning wood at the memory. Price has had wet dreams before, plenty of times while a teenager or when he had a girl back home while serving as a Lieutenant. None of them had felt like this- like he was on a drug trip and feeling absolutely every movement and sense you rode out of him.
Letting a groan akin to a bear's roar echo in his room, his eyelids keep blinking to make the bleariness leave to welcome the light of day into his mind. And Price just… sits there for a moment.
Yes, he was asleep and didn’t have the control he would much rather prefer over you being in his bed, but by Satan himself that was just the last thing he needed.
There wasn’t much time for him to seek out physical attention or affection from others, constantly married to his job and watching his back for those looking at him. There had been a handful of women who were graced with hot nights, but he’d always be gone by the time they’d woken up. These women stemmed from the pubs far off town and closer to his home. Even a young recruit on a different unit had tried her luck but was instantly shot down without a thought to him.
He has a name and team to uphold, he wouldn’t earn himself a court martial just for an easy piece of ass. But now presented with your beautiful self while officials are giving him the green light, he has no idea what to do. You’re growing close to him already, something he tried to resist with all the boys on the team until they had bludgeoned their way to his heart by force.
He couldn’t let you do that.
To be used, having someone two steps ahead of him through reading his feelings and laying them out on a silver platter. It would be devastating to the way he functions, the way he holds himself, and how he carries out his mission. Manipulation is his greatest peeve. Protecting his heart is his greatest operation.
Price doesn’t see you until later; Making sure supplies and operations were starting smoothly, his mind was in a flurry of motions he subconsciously grew used to over the years. He knows what boxes need to be checked, being sure to be prepared for everything. He wasn’t prepared to find you in the briefing room before anyone else, looking right as rain and ready to go.
You’re a wicked piece of work, being able to act as if nothing was askew. Totally innocent. You could feel his glare before even looking at the man, and gods above so below, he was pissed off. Horny, and pissed off.
“Good morning, Captain.” The sound of his footsteps halting leaves the room quiet, making you look up to him. “Everything alright? Seems like you’ve seen the devil himself.”
Even with knowing this team for a short time, they could be impressed by how well you could read their emotions. Even Ghost, with just a look of his eyes and gauging what lays under his mask. Right now was not one of these moments.
Approaching slowly, eyes watching where he steps, the indent of his cheek shows where he bites at it. “Tell me, sweetheart. How’d you sleep last night?”
Once reaching where you sit, he leans on the table with a heavy hand as the other holds the back of your chair. “Because you seem mighty chipper this morning, eh?”
A wave of vexation washes over you from his tone and gaze alone. You’re beyond thankful you’ve taken a moment to not show your tail today or else it would have frozen in place.
“I slept fine, ready for the day.” Reverting to innocence was starting to piss Price off.
“Right, right.” Grunting in response, he moves in closer to your face. “Because I woke up tired, cum in my pants, and quite the feeling of a very warm weight over me. Would you happen to know anything about that, little devil?”
“Would there be an issue if I did? That's quite the allegation, Price.”
The wood underneath his hand squeaks with the strain his fingers pull at it.
“If you ever do that again, I will be contacting your owners and having your ass back on a plane faster than you can go to sleep.”
With the Captain’s anger solely focused on you, resentment stemming all from a dream and granting him pleasure, something inside of you breaks off into cooling embers. A cold shiver washes down your back. The mention of going back to your previous commanders makes your stomach roll with pinpricks at the mere thought of what they would do to you.
“Do. You. Understand. Saint?” He whispers once his lips press against your ear, and the bastard can see the fear running through you when your red eyes look past him at the wall.
“Yes, Captain.” It waivers on your tongue, thinking you’d have enough strength by the tightness in your throat yet it fails you.

A FREE IDEA FOR FAN FICTION
Sorry for the mistakes, English through translator.
In general, this post is for readers too, but mostly for the authors.
I'm too lazy to write a whole fanfiction, but I'm not too lazy to illustrate it, in general…
ROYAL AU!
I NEED A ROYAL AU!
I have already read enough medieval stories, and I have not yet seen such a plot, so I will summarize it briefly.
The main character is the reader /"Y|N"/ you are the indirect heir to the royal throne. That is, you seem to belong to the royal blood, but you are not close to the board at all. Your father is the king's cousin, so you don't have much chance to rule, and you don't need to. You and your family have been slandered in every way possible to keep your parents away from the capital and the palace. Of course, as a child you were in the palace, at balls and so on, but that was a long time ago.
You and your father lived on the outskirts, in a small estate with an adjacent village. You weren't poor, but you weren't rich either. You know what it's like to live in the common people, what hunger and disease are. You don't need the throne because you have a deep resentment and dislike for the crown, which is why your family suffered.
You had almost no childhood. Your father had his own crazy mission - to teach you everything he knows himself. Politics, economics, even military affairs and fencing. Sometimes it came to paranoia. One of his lessons turned out to be a disaster for you and now your back is decorated with a long torn scar (you can make up a story).
And one day, your father is called back to the capital. He doesn't tell you the reasons, but he's coming back after a month. Really sick. Over the next week, you had the feeling that your father had been poisoned. He's dying in your arms. Weak, exhausted, not like himself.
And a year later, 4 horsemen with the coat of arms of one of the most powerful clans in the kingdom come to your estate. 141, headed by the family of John Price. Along with him come the "dead knight" Simon "Ghost" Riley - his right-hand man and chief adviser, John "Soap" McTavish and Kyle "Gaz" Garrick (you can also add Roach and others here).
Price announces to you that practically the entire royal dynasty was killed in a coup and now you are the first in line to the throne. At first, you give up the crown and send them back, BUT then you agree.
1) Price uses blackmail (how exactly and what kind of blackmail is at your discretion)
2) You need to find out what happened to your father (the main reason you agree.)
3) You really don't have a choice (why?yes, the dick knows, we need to come up with)
FURTHER SPOILERS!
The irony is that you were chosen for a reason. The former king and his family were frankly terrible rulers, and in fact it was 141 who staged the coup (but the reader will learn about this as the story progresses)
Price's plan was to put someone on the throne, in the role of a puppet. In that case, he would have the power. And Price is not a bad person, he wants only the best for your country, but he cannot entrust its development to anyone.
That's why he chose you, but you ruin his plans almost immediately.
You're really taking control of the country into your own hands. You don't let yourself be controlled, you are constantly learning and developing. You're really smart! It is important! More importantly, you can't trust anyone from the royal court. After all, in addition to 141, there is another clan - CorTak (who is in charge of it, who is in it and what they do is up to you. THE ONLY THING is to add Koenig, I love him, and women, because without them there are only men in the palace).
Whether CorTak will be involved in the coup is also up to you to decide.
The main conflict can be tied to foreign policy. For example, Shepard is the ruler of a neighboring country, and his representative in your kingdom is Graves.
Maybe Shepard wants to take over your lands? Was he involved in your father's murder? ???
You can also add Laswell to your side, as an ambassador on your side.
A FEW HEADCOUNTS OF CHARACTERS:
JOHN PRICE
Cunning, smart, wise. Do not think that behind his "calmness" there is really "calmness"He has a good command of his face. A great political player, an excellent leader with his dark secrets and injuries.
Military, fighter, fencing at the highest level. Kapets is so strong. He can be mean. I'm used to achieving my goals. He usually avoids harsh immoral things, but when things "smell fried", he will do anything to protect his clan.
Did he have a wife? Maybe, but he's got a lot of mistresses. Rather, he is single, or frankly does not love the woman he married.
Really RICH. He's a lord or whatever. He has lands and he is one of the king's confidants, his adviser, even if the king is dead, John still holds this position.
She can blackmail the reader, and in principle, at first treats her with distrust and prejudice. After some time, he begins to deliberately annoy her, attract attention to himself and behave quite boldly (for example, enter her personal space). Sexual tension is 100%. But he's still a gentleman.
SIMON RILEY
I think he probably has an estate with a village, but most likely it is empty, or he is being looked after by several servants. He hardly ever shows up there.
Otherwise, it is a canonical rough, hard, cold Ghost, with its own backstory. He serves Price faithfully.
Sleeping with Johnny? I don't mind, we're all a bit perverted here.
JOHN MCTAVISH
Ahhh, typical Johnny. A funny guy, a fucker, shamelessly flirting.
He can run after skirts. He'll end up with Simon anyway. \(-_-)/
He has a BIG family. Right now, yes. I think he's from a small town in Scotland. Maybe Price found him?
KYLE GARRICK
The same story as with Sope.
I also have a family, but I don't think it's rich.
In general, sexual relations between 141 are welcome. Let's be honest, "141 x reader" is much more interesting when chemistry flows between all its members.
Speaking of love lines: 141 x reader + KorTac x reader.
You can put Vaqueros and Graves in here. I love everything, I like everything.
DESCRIPTION OF THE READER
I repeat that the reader is smart! This is really important! The reader is not naive, he does not have pink glasses.
Stubborn, arrogant, strong in spirit and character. responsible and independent.
He also manages his face well, but not at the same level as Price.
About 22-24 years old.
The reader has a lot of skills, but he will have to learn a lot more to run the country.
He doesn't like luxury. More for practicality than beauty.
She knows etiquette, can play the piano and violin, and she loves music, but she rarely gets to do it.
He doesn't like dancing. She's cold enough for balls and social evenings, but she can't do anything about it.
He reads solely because of the information. Uses any free minute for any activity.
He doesn't know what rest is. The guys have to forcibly drag her out for walks. She won't say, but she's grateful to them.Sincerely loves to laugh.
She can be sarcastic. I like to put people (especially those who deserve it) in an awkward position. It amuses her.
SOME SCENES THAT TAKE PLACE.
Damn, I can see how Price is sending Sop and Gas to convey some information to the reader, which is not very important, but he requires transmission right now. Imagine the guys' faces when they find you naked in the bathroom, sitting with your back to them, with a book in your hands. And in fact, you are not embarrassed by their presence, but begin to nightmare them, amused by their reaction. Or maybe Price won't send anyone, but will go looking for you himself. Or will it be a Ghost?
In general, I need such a story on AO3 or here, it doesn't matter. I just hope someone gets inspired by it and writes it. And also. Leave a link in the comments to the fanfiction, if any.

A letter from Robert Jordan
ROBERT JORDAN c\o Tor Books 175 Fifth Avenue New York, N.Y., 10010 March 1, 1994
Miss Carolyn Fusinato Editor, The Chronicles 1203 Timber Valley Dr. Flower Mound TX 75028 Dear Carolyn:
Thanks for your letter of February 6.
I've had requests for info about starting clubs from three or four people, and have given them the address of The Chronicles. In addition, there was/is a club in Columbia S.C., but I've lost their address. In Scotland I was given a seventy-page printout of "facts deduced" about the books by a Jordan discussion group on Internet, which I am told has broken away from the main SF/Fantasy group. A fan wrote giving me the "address " of this group, but I would have to go through all the filed letters to find it; as I am not on any of the nets, I did not make a note of it. Otherwise, it's hearsay, that the clubs exist on the nets. If I find any addresses, I will send them on to you.
Does evil need to be effective to be evil? And how do you define effectiveness? Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge managed to murder about 25-30% of Cambodia's population, destroy the country's agricultural and industrial base, fairly well wipe out the educated class inside the country (defined as anyone with an education beyond the ability to read; a good many of those went too, of course), and in general became so rabid that only China was willing to maintain any sort of contact with them, and that at arm's length. Their rabidity was the prime reason that they ended up losing the country. (though they are still around and still causing trouble.) In other words, they were extremely ineffective in attaining their goal, which was to seize Cambodia, remake it in the way Pol Pot wished (and still wishes), and export their brand of revolution abroad. Looking at the death toll, the cities emptied out (hospital patients were told they had one hour to leave or die; post-op patients, those still in the operating room, everybody), the murders of entire families down to infants because one member of the family was suspected of "counter-revolutionary" crimes, the mass executions (one method was for hundreds of people to be bound hand and foot, then bulldozed into graves alive; the bulldozers drove back and forth over these mass graves until attempts to dig out stopped) -- given all of that, can you say that Khmer Roughe's ineffectiveness made them less evil? Irrationality is more fearful than rationality (if we can use that term in this regard) because if you have brown hair and know that the serial killer out there is only killing blondes, you are safe, but if he is one of those following no easily discernible pattern, if every murder seems truly random, then it could be you who will be next. But "rationality" can have its terrors. What if that killer is only after brunettes named Carolyn? Stalin had the very rational goal (according to Communist dogma) of forcibly collectivizing all farmland in the Soviet Union. He was effective -- all the land was collectivized -- and to do it he murdered some thirty million small farmers who did not want to go along.
But are the Forsaken ineffective or irrational? Are they any more divided than any other group plotting got take over a country, a world, IBM? True, they plot to secure power for themselves. But I give you Stalin v. Trotsky and the entire history of the Soviet Union. I give you Thomas Jefferson v. Alexander Hamilton v. John Adams, and we will ignore such thins as Jefferson's hounding of Aaron Burr (he tore up the Constitution to do it; double jeopardy, habeas corpus, the whole nine yards), or Horatio Gates' attempted military coup against Washington, with the support of a fair amount of the Continental Congress. We can also ignore Secretary of War Stanton's attempts to undermine Lincoln throughout the Civil War, the New England states' attempt to make a separate peace with England during the Revolution and their continued trading with the enemy (the British again) during the War of 1812, and… The list could go on forever, frankly, and take in every country. Human nature is to seize personal advantage, and when the situation is the one the Forsaken face (namely that one of them will be given the rule of the entire earth while the others are forever subordinate), they are going to maneuver and backstab like crazy. You yourself say "If ever there was the possibility that some alien force was going to invade this planet, half the countries would refuse to admit the problem, the other half would be fighting each other to figure out who will lead the countries into battle, etc." Even events like Rahvin or Sammael or Be'lal seizing a nation have a basis. What better way to hand over large chunks of land and people to the Dark One than to be ruler of those elands and people? The thing is that they are human. But aside from that, are you sure that you know what they are up to? All of them? Are you sure you know what the Dark One's own plans are? Now let's see about Ran and his dangers and his allies. Have you been skimming, my dear? What makes you think the Tairens, Cairhienin and Andorans are solidly behind him? They're plotting and scheming as hard as the Forsaken. Rand is the Dragon Reborn, but this is my country, and we don't need anybody, and so on. And then there are those who don't think he is the DR at all, just a puppet of Tar Valon. Most of the Aiel may be behind him, but the Shaido are still around, and the bleackness is still taking its toll, since not all Aiel can face up to what Rand has told them about themselves. What makes you think the Seanchan will fall in behind rand? Have you seen any Seanchan volunteers showing up? Carolyn, half of these people are denying there is a problem, and half are trying to be big honcho themselves. Read again, Carolyn. The world Rand lives in is getting more frenzied and turbulent. Damned few are saying, "Lead, because you know best." A good many who are following are saying "Lead, because I'd rather follow you than have you call down lightning and burn me to a crisp!"
As for lack of challenge, I refer you again to the question about whether you really think you know what all the Forsaken are planning. Or what Padan Fain is up to. There is a flaw inherent in fiction, one that is overcome by suspension of disbelief. We do always know, somewhere in the back of our heads, that the hero is going to make it through as far as he needs to. After all, if Frodo buys the farm, the story is over, kids. The excitement comes in trying to figure out how he can possibly wiggle out, how he can possibly triumph.
In Rand's case, let's see what he still has stacked against him. The Cairhienin and Tairens are for the most part reluctant allies, and in many cases not even that. At the end of FIRES, he has Caemlyn, but I don't see any Andoran nobles crowding around to hail him. Illian still belongs to Sammael. Pedron Niall is working to convince people Rand is a false Dragon, and the Prophet is alienating ten people for every one he convinces. Tarabon and Arad Doman are unholy messes; even if Rand manages to get in touch with all of the Dragonsworn -- who are not organized beyond individual bands -- he has two humongous civil wars to deal with. True, he can use the Aiel to suppress those, but he has to avoid men killing men too much; there are Trollocs waiting to spill out of the Blight eventually. We must always remember the Trollocs, Myrddraal etc; the last time they came out in force, it took over 300 years to beat them back, and the Last Battle doesn't give Rand anywhere near that. Altara and Murandy are so divided in any case that simply getting the king or queen on his side isn't going to work; remember that most people in those two countries give loyalty to a city or a local lord and only toss in their country as an afterthought. Davram Bashere thinks Tenobia will bring Saldaea to Rand, and that is possible since the Borderlands would be one place where everyone is aware of the Last Battle and the Prophecies, but even Bashere isn't willing to make any promises, not even for Saldaea much less the other Borderlands, and I haven't seen any Borderland rulers showing up to hand Rand the keys to the kingdom. Padan Fain is out there, able to feel Rand, and hating him because of what was done to him, Fain, to make him able to find Rand. The surviving Forsaken are out there and except for Sammael, nobody knows what they are up to or where they can be found. For that matter, who knows everything that Sammael is up to? Elaida, in the White Tower, thinks Rand has to be tightly controlled. The Salidar Aes Sedai are not simply ready to fall in and kiss his boots, either. Aes Sedai have been manipulating the world for more than three thousand years, guiding it, making sure it remembers the Dark One and Tarmon Gai'don as real threats, doing their best, as they see it, to prepare the world for the Dark One breaking free. Are they likely to simply step aside and hand over control to a farmboy, even if he is the Dragon Reborn? Even after Moiraine decided he had to be given his head, Siuan was reluctant, and Siuan was in Moiraine's little conspiracy from the beginning. And the Seanchan…The last we saw of their forces, they were commanded by a Darkfriend. As for the Sea Folk, do you know what their prophecy says about the Coramoor? Do you think working with them it will be any simpler than dealing with the Aiel, say?
Now, what and who does Rand have solidly in his camp? Perrin knows what is needed, but he's hardly happy about it. What he really wants is to settle down with Faile and be a blacksmith; everything else is a reluctant duty. Mat blew the Horn of Valere, but it's hidden in the Tower, and frankly, if he could figure some way to go away and spend the rest of his life carousing and chasing women, he would. He'll do what he has to do, but Light he doesn't want to. The Aiel are for Rand (less the Shaido, still a formidable force), but the Dragon Reborn and the Last Battle are no part of the Prophecy of Rhuidean. That is all wetlander stuff. Besides which, they are still suffering losses from bleakness, people throwing down their spears and leaving, people defecting to the Shaido or drifting back to the Waste because what Rand told them of their origins can't possibly be true and if it isn't then he can't be the car'a'carn. Rand has declared an amnesty for men who can channel and is trying to gather them in; they, at least, should give their loyalty to him. But how many can he find? How much can he teach them in the time he has? How many will go mad before the Last Battle? There is still the taint on saidin, remember. For that matter, can Rand hang onto his own sanity? What effect will having a madman inside his head have? Can he stop Lews Therin from taking him over?
I know that was supposed to be a listing of what Rand has in his favor, but the fact is that he is walking the razor's edge, barely hanging onto his sanity and growing more paranoid all the time, barely hanging onto putative allies, most of whom would just as soon see him go away in the hope that then everything would be the way it was before he showed up, confronted by enemies on every side. In short he has challenges enough for ten men. I've had people writ to say they can't see how Rand is going to untangle all of this and get humanity ready to face the Last Battle. What I say is, what you believe to be true is not always true. What you think is going to happen is not always going to happen. That has been demonstrated time and again in THE WHEEL OF TIME. You could call those two statements one of the themes of the books.
Hey, don't publish the picture Gerard gave you. Our house has no wrought-iron gates. Also, no renovation has been done here since the fix-up after Hurricane Hugo several years ago. I kid you not. Poor Gerard go the wrong house. I'm glad you don't intend to publish any address, whether or not it is mine. There are fans who write letters, and then there are fans who show up at the front door unannounced. I hate to be rude to people, but with the time I spend writing, I barely have time for a social life with my friends, and frankly, someone who has managed to track you down is going to think you have cheated them if you scribble your name in their book and say, "Now go away. I'm busy." Believe me.
Well, again, thanks for the letter, Carolyn. Do keep me abreast of what's happening with The Chronicles. I really would like to see copies, if it is possible for you to send them to me care of Tor Books.
With best wishes, I remain,
Sincerely, Robert Jordan

Observation 101
So, here we are. If you practiced your Mindset and Intuition, observation will be more useful for you. Obviously, in 1 post we can only discuss what is observation and how to observe better. In the future, we will go deeper and analyze scenes. For now, let's get started.
Some people think that observation is just looking around. But here is the difference: Looking around is passive, observation is active. There is something called "Passive Observation" but it is not the same as looking around.
Passive Observation: It is an automatic habit you develop. You don't actively look for details but you observe. For example, you shake someone's hand and later you can say it was a firm grip and he wore a watch even though you weren't paying attention. Obviously, details come with attention so you won't observe a lot passively.
Active Observation: You have a purpose and you channel your observation with this purpose. You want to observe as much as possible in the shortest amount of time. So, when you shake hands you don't just shake, you are trying to get a feel of his skin, you are looking for the brand of the watch etc. When you become active, more details are available to you.
Let's analyze this scene in a very superficial way. Sherlock listens to the victim's parents and while he turns his head, he notices something. He realizes that an object is not where it is supposed to be. It is just an instant intuition and passive observation. It appears he wasn't actively looking but still noticed it because he practiced observation for a long time and he can observe even when he doesn't give attention.
Obviously, we have a lot of examples of active observation so I won't go deep on that.(Basically, every scene where Sherlock makes a deduction is almost an active observation. Though, we will go deeper in the next posts.)We can't do anything about passive observation because it will come with practice. For now, let's focus on active observation.
How to Observe?
Even if you know what to look for, if you don't know how to look, it won't matter. (You will look for a watch on a man's wrist but miss the detail that it is a woman's watch. )
So, for the last 3 years, I did research about how to observe and still @amateur-deductions program is one of the best programs. 2 basic questions will increase your observation skills immensely. Those are: 1-What is missing? This question is important because like the example above(Sherlock notices what is missing, which is bust)you need to see what is not there but should be. Almost everyone buys dumbells as a pair. So, if you see a 5 kg dumbell on the ground, you should question where is the other one.(If there is another one.) If you ask yourself "What is missing?" you will see it easier.
2-What seems out of place?
You see a soldier but he is not shaved. Why? Maybe he left the military or he is lying. Whatever the case, there is something out of place and by asking "What seems out of place?" you will look for odd details. These 2 questions are not enough but very important for the foundation. In addition, never forget: “There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.” Never take anything for granted.
Your brain will trick you when there is an obvious fact like that:
Wrong: This person wears a watch. A lot of people wear a watch so it is not important. I don't have to observe it.
True: I wonder what can I observe about this watch? What time does it show?
What to look for?
The answer to that question is simple: Everything. You can't take the risk of missing any details so you have to observe everything. After you observe everything, your observations will draw you a path and you will go deeper into some of them. So, observe everything.
This is a long introduction but a necessary one. In the future, we will go deeper. So, if you have any questions about observation, send them. For now, that's all. See you later.

DA RULES
Some have complained about the length of DA RULES. Well too bad, too many non compliant people so BACK ON THE WALL THEY GO!
Straps Kinky Stories
TERMS OF SERVICE AND CONDUCT POLICY (ALL REGULATIONS ARE IN ADDITION TO TUMBLR RULES)
THIS IS A FETISH BLOG. THIS IS NOT A PORN BLOG. THIS IS NOT ABOUT VANILLA SEX. THIS IS ABOUT KINKY GEAR AND FUN WITH GEAR AS WELL AS SENSORY EXPLORATION AS AN ADULT WITH AUTISM
I’m no longer mr sympathetic, I never was. I’m not giving free reign to porn here on Tumblr. Geared up erotica is one thing. Fucking each other and publishing full nudes focusing on your ass and cock isn’t creativity it’s smut. Tumblr isn’t a place for smut, it’s been made very clear by the executive leadership team that tumblr is for creativity and smut isn’t creative, I can go make smut in a matter of seconds with some fuck off the street. It takes planning bravery and skill to execute something as complex as a vacbag bondage scene or a mummification in rubber with electrical tape.
No longer sympathetic means:
1• I’m not chasing after followers (I have my Twitter for that) YOU WILL BE BLOCKED WITHOUT QUESTION IF YOUR WHOLE BLOG IS NUDES / VANILLA OR OTHERWISE UNUSABLE CONTENT.
2• I am not pro smut. I am pro erotica pro fetish pro gear. (Take your filmed one night stands with random whores and put them elsewhere. I don’t want the videos and I don’t want the photos of you having sex!)
3• I WILL REPORT OUTRIGHT PORN IN WHICH A PERSONS ARSE OR PENIS IS VISIBLE DIRECTLY AND IS CONSIDERED CENTRAL TO THE IMAGE. DIRECT MESSAGES CONTAINING SUCH IMAGES WILL BE REPORTED ON SIGHT! DO NOT SEND UNSOLICITED IMAGES. ANY UNSOLICITED IMAGE RECEIVED MAY CAN AND WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU IN LEGAL PROCEDURE!
4• Apparently I have to add knives and firearms as an instant categorical block / unfollow because for some reason people in this world are so severely mentally defective that they worship firearms. Go get a corset or some gear to worship dumbasses. Y’all gonna get killed or jailed one day soon. (This does not apply to scenes in which a device is being used for its intended purpose and is not a part of the sexual scene. i.e a police officers weapon holstered is not a part of the scene but is present and responsibly stowed therefore not an automatic block. In fact you will find a lot of police and military uniform kink on my blog. I respect people who use these devices responsibly. But don’t make them a part of your scene okay? Leave the weaponry out of the picture unless it is stowed!)
5• Adding idiots who call men and ladies it. If you objectify you are not turning me on and likely to attract an unfollow. Also, if you address me on first message as your slave, then you clearly don’t know a damn thing about manners. Introduce yourself POLITELY and do not engage in scenario behaviors until I authorize such a scene. YOU WILL BE BLOCKED ON SIGHT!
6• After negative experiences with Skype Etc I WILL NOT BE ALLOWING FOLLOWERS TO HAVE MY PERSONAL CONTACT DATUM. IF YOU WANT TO TALK TO ME YOU GET DISCORD, TWITTER, OR YOU USE TUMBLR! NO EXCEPTIONS!!! ESPECIALLY FOR PEOPLE SOLICITING BUSINESS. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN A MISTRESS OR ANY TYPE OF FINANCIAL TRANSACTION FOR SEXUAL SERVICES NOR AM I INTERESTED IN A RELATIONSHIP.
7• After many negative experiences with following everyone who follows me back I AM NOTIFYING YOU NOW THAT IF YOU POST OFF TOPIC OR VANILA CONTENT YOU WILL NOT GET A FOLLOW BACK! This rule is still present but in weaker form. I will carefully decide who gets a follow back. If your blog is full of politics with little usable content you will not be followed. If there’s an occasional one off rant once in a while you will be exceptioned. All materials must be compliant with section 8
8• Partisanization of pornography is prohibited on this blog and in any blog that follows it. You acknowledge and consent to random searches of your blog for unauthorized material pursuant to any section of this article.
9• I may source content from people who engage in findom, I strongly recommend against sending any person any funds. Your money is best invested in yourself, don’t buy some random person online expensive gear because they told you to. I HAVE NO RESPECT FOR FINDOM ACTORS, THEIR CONTENT WILL NOT BE FEATURED HERE WITH KNOWLEDGE IF YOU ARE MADE AWARE ONE OF MY POSTS IS FROM A FINDOM ACTOR PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO I CAN REMOVE IT AND BLOCK THE PERSON. FINDOMS DO NOT FOLLOW!
I know too many people who have had their lives destroyed by controlling findom assholes and ladies. So I shall not respect you.
10• ABOUT COPYRIGHT If you want your content removed I will happily take it down in compliance with a DM request which is the easiest and fastest way to lodge a complaint directly with me, please allow me up to 3 business days to handle your request before filing a DMCA notice with Tumblr. IF YOU FILE A HOSTILE DMCA TAKEDOWN AGAINST ME WITHOUT FIRST ATTEMPTING TO CIVILLY NOTIFY ME I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO COUNTERSUE YOU FOR IMPROPER CIVIL PROCEDURE!
11• Also kind of copyright, stealing memes and reposting memes without even hashtags is called the creation of a junk blog, not even a feeder. If all you post is memes, vanilla garbage and or spam you will be immediately unfollowed, and reported if necessary. THIS BLOG IS NOT A MEME BLOG NOR DO I HAVE INTEREST IN YOUR MEANINGLESS MEMES
11A• NO MATTER HOW NOBLE THE CAUSE IF ITS ABOUT POLICE REFORM OR VOTERS RIGHTS ETC BLAH BLAH ANYTHING. I WILL NOT ENTERTAIN OR FOLLOW BACK BLOGS CONTAINING SUCH MATERIAL.Blogs will be treated pursuant to section 7
12• I SHOULDNT HAVE TO MENTION THIS TO YOU IMBECILIC FOOLS. DO NOT FUCKING FOLLOW ME OR ENGAGE WITH ME IF YOU ENGAGE IN RACIST BEHAVIORS. THIS BLOG ALLIANCES WITH PEOPLE OF COLOR. I WILL REPORT YOU AND IF NECESSARY TRIGGER FEDERAL SYSTEMS! THIS BLOG IS OPERATED IN DIRECT ALLIANCE WITH INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES!
13• THIS IS FEDERAL LAW. I SHOULDNT HAVE TO TELL YOU DO NOT POST CHILDREN ON AN ADULT BLOG NOR TALK IN CHILDISH TERMS. YOU WILL BE AT THE LEAST CATEGORICALLY BLOCKED AND LIKELY REPORTED IF NOT REPORTED TO FBI NCMEC. THIS BLOG WORKS CLOSELY WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT!
14• If you are selling or consuming federally illegal drugs or any drug which you are not prescribed other than Cannabis on your blog this constitutes a federal violation. YOU WILL BE REPORTED AND BLOCKED. AUTHORITIES WILL BE NOTIFIED.
15• If you make foolish satanist memes and posts of monsters / clickbait / fearbait / religious statements in your blog intended to detract value from adult entertainers. I am a Christian Jewish adult content producer. Please respect that, if you have such foolish memes and images on your blog that show an affinity to demons and Satan worship etc YOU WILL BE CATEGORICALLY BLOCKED AND POSSIBLY REPORTED
16• If you’re doing alpha worship bullshit and are engaging in verbal abuse play / any abuse play you will be blocked. See rules 9 & 5 🤦♂️ SEXUAL/FETISH FANTASIES ARE PERMITTED, OUTRIGHT BULLYING IS ANOTHER AND WILL NOT BE TOLERATED HERE. IT IS PROHIBITED BY TUMBLR TOS. YOU WILL BE REPORTED! IF YOUR KINK IS BEING ABUSED. THEN KEEP IT IN YOUR BEDROOM OFF OF THE INTERNET. WE DONT HAVE A PLACE FOR HATE ONLINE!
17• It’s in my profile text but apparently I need to put it here in legalese so you people understand. THESE STORIES ARE FICTIONAL FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY. TO ATTEMPT ANY OF THESE ACTS MAY BE FATAL! I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS ARISING FROM THE USE OR MISUSE OF THIS BLOG! (I best recommend using it with phone in one hand penis in the other 😉)
18• Some people may not want their content utilized under fair use for entertainment writing, I respect this, however you must be respectful of me in requesting removal. Please follow form that you would in a copyright request pursuant to 10 on this document (DM me and simply say “I own this image, this is a link to my original post. I don’t want stories on my pictures”) but if you are impolite I reserve the right to remove your images and send a final DM stating your images are removed pursuant to copyright paragraph and contacts are to be permanently ceased.
18a• If you requested an image be removed it may appear on this blog again reposted from a source other than you. I do not control my content sources, I do not have ways to recognize who’s photo is who’s sometimes. If your photo appears again here you may not take legal action without first attempting to directly remedy with me. All best efforts will be made to avoid the images of a person who is blocked / opted out. IF YOU CONTACT ME I WILL DIRECT YOU TO THE PERSON I FOUND THE IMAGE FROM. THE UPLOADER IS THE PERSON THAT YOU MAY TAKE ACTION UPON. YOUR FURTHEST REMEDIATION AGAINST ME IS ME TAKING DOWN MY POST IF YOU DISLIKE THE STORY!
19• Accounts with no profile photo and a title in a foreign language / no content on them will be instablocked&instareported. This is ESPECIALLY true of Russian accounts. Russian accounts that do not speak English or behave in a bot like manner may encounter law enforcement actions. I also do not do follow for follow. Twitter is a F4F environment. Tumblr, I carefully evaluate who I follow. If you follow me you acknowledge you may or may not be followed back. It’s dependent on your content meeting my stringent criteria for inclusion.
20• This is flash fiction, This is a difficult creative task and having to come up with names can be difficult. In some themes people may prefer a particular naming or an owner may want their image named a particular way. This is fine however please do not ask me to come up with new names fitting your taste, if you have issue with my names please provide names you think are usable for the story or elect for its removal. Simply telling me to change the names will result in random names being put in and may result in further confusion.
21• I cannot and will not entertain unsafe sex practitioners. SAFE SEX ONLY. WEAR A CONDOM. Pozpigs will be blocked on sight, breeders will be blocked, HIV spreaders will be proactively reported to HHS and local health authorities / law enforcement if necessary. DO NOT USE YOUR FETISH TO BE A PUBLIC HEALTH RISK. ANYONE CAUGHT DOING SO WILL BE PROSECUTED.
22• This website uses Google Analytics, you are anonymously being monitored. This monitoring is the same as Tumblrs internal tracking system. I cannot trace who is viewing when without being told a person is from a specific city and that they’re on a specified page. Otherwise you remain anonymous. Your anonymity boils down to you keeping your behavior concealed from me. I primarily will use this tool to monitor trends in readership and find out what keywords people are finding my stories with and which stories are getting the most read through. This software will help everyone enjoy the blog more. That said I feel it is necessary to state that Analytics are being performed by Tumblr (outside of my control) and Google (my system run by them)
23• Some of you might enjoy hypnosis and flashing images. I don’t, as a person with epilepsy I reserve the right to block you on sight for this type of content. I don’t enjoy hypnosis stuff and I especially don’t enjoy people putting flashing images on their blog. This isn’t 1990s internet world where you can do that crap and get away with it. People have seizures, I have a history of seizure disorder. If I have a seizure and require ambulance intervention YOU WILL BE CRIMINALLY AND CIVILLY LIABLE FOR THE MEDICAL EXPENSES! You will be blocked on sight for hypnosis GIFs that are epileptogenic. Textual content producers will be excepted UNLESS their blog contains epileptogenic content. I reserve the right to report blogs egregiously violating to Tumblr for account level remediation. IF AN AMBULANCE HAS TO BE CALLED LAW ENFORCEMENT WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE ACTIVATED!
24• Anonymous folks are unwelcome here. If you’re looking for the ask anonymously checkbox, it doesn’t exist on this blog. If you want to hide who you are from me then you have no authority to be contacting me. I will not entertain DMs asking for my contact details either. Unless someone EARNS those details by becoming TRUSTED. You don’t just walk into a persons home when they have an open house dinner party and ask the host for their private email and telephone numbers. You sit down and chat with them over a dinner or cup of coffee and get to be trusted before they share it with you on their own accord. If you have to reveal your email to me and tell me to email you as your first contact with me. Then I don’t want to know you because you’re that creepy guy that walks into the dinner party and asks everyone for their phone numbers and emails before soon getting thrown out the door with the barkeeper heave ho! FROM THIS DAY FORWARD. NO ANONYMOUS ASKS WILL BE ACCEPTED. ALL PERSONS MUST HAVE A CLEARLY IDENTIFIABLE TUMBLR ACCOUNT WITH A PROFILE PHOTO. ACCOUNTS WITHOUT PROFILE PHOTOS WHO SEND DMS WILL BE REPLIED TO IN THE LOWEST PRIORITY. ACCOUNTS THAT ARE WITHOUT CONTENT MAY RECEIVE ZERO PRIORITY AND MAY BE BLOCKED ON SIGHT DEPENDING ON COUNTRY OF ORIGIN AND RISK TIER. BY USING THIS BLOG YOU ACCEPT AND UNDERSTAND THAT RISK ANALYSIS SOFTWARE IS IN USE PROVIDED BY GOOGLE ANALYTICS SERVICES.
25• (Friendly Name: The Emergency Override Act) The EOA is now instituted on this blog until we have veritable evidence that RoeVsWade is restored and gay / LGBT rights are not under threat. This blog may actively be used to speak about LGBT issues and the SCOTUS. While these posts will be infrequent pursuant to Section 7 of this document, they will be more frequent than other political speakings. #WeWillNotStandDown #WeHaveRights #HerBodyHerChoice #LoveIsLove #GodSaidNothing (Reread your Bible conservative folks, JESUS said nothing about abortion or the LGBT! But he DID say that we are all SOVEREIGN over our bodies and minds)
THINGS THAT DECREASE RISK SCORE - A HISTORY OF ACTIVE USE OF TUMBLR, A PROFILE PHOTO, A LINK TO A SOCIAL MEDIA PROFILE, A WEBSITE, AND A CLEARLY IDENTIFIABLE USERNAME. THINGS THAT INCREASE RISK SCORE - NO CONTENT ON BLOG, AN UNDENTIFIABLE USERNAME, NO PROFILE PHOTO, LACK OF LINKS TO PERSONAL CONTENT OR A SOCIAL MEDIA PROFILE, A LACK OF A WEBSITE, IMPROPER BEHAVIOR OR BEHAVIORS THAT MIRROR THAT OF ABUSIVE PERSONS SUCH AS USE OF INAPPROPRIATE LANGUAGES OR OTHER VIOLATIONS TO THE TOS OF THIS BLOG.

BY READING BEYOND THIS LINE YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE AFOREMENTIONED CLAUSES AND AGREE TO FOLLOW ALL TUMBLR AND BLOG CONDUCT POLICIES. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN A BLOG BLOCK A PLATFORM BAN OR LAW ENFORCEMENT INVOLVEMENT IF NECESSITATED.
While I stand with you that porn shouldn’t be banned it does need to be filtered! Sensitive content vs mild erotic clothed content are two tiers of adult content. And not everyone wants to see nude ladies and men’s private bits. I find them gross. I’m far more interested in seeing a lady in a heavy rubber apron straitjacketing a dude so tight he can barely take a breath while wearing a breathplay hood.
It’s your fault followers, thanks and no thanks. If you like my content but you don’t actually click the like button and don’t reblog and I see you posting nothing but dick pictures I will simply block and report you. Understood?
I know I’m gonna get a lot of heat for this but my blog, my rules, and kind of Tumblrs rules if you think about it. Nudity is prohibited but they never said anything about leather latex pvc and gear.
So GEAR UP OR GET BANNED!

Atlantis Expedition - Military Division: Gate Teams, Part 3: "Expectations + Gate Team Training + Conclusion"
Following on from the previous post (link here) and the Military Division overview post (link here), here are some headcanons for the expectations of gate teams, and some closing remarks.
Expectations
What is expected from someone on a gate team? Quite a bit, as evidenced by the type of gear they would be required to carry - incompetency is the quickest way to get yourself, your team mates, and random non-combatants killed. As the CO works with the CAO and CSO on mission schedules and goals, the gate teams are likely to be loosely divided into civilian aims to further the goals of the expedition at large or to provide back-up support to myriad situations (combat, civilian, or mixed-use scenarios).
Out of practicality, each gate team cannot be considered a jack-of-all-trades for every conceivable situation a gate team might come across. Basic training is, well, basic, and it's simpler to divide specializations into more gate teams rather than try to make each gate team hyperspecialized in a dozen or two potentially conflicting skillsets.
As previously discussed on the Military Division headcanon post (link here), here is a copy of the headcanoned list of gate teams, as well as their main specializations and situations they would typically accommodate for. Additional commentary included for amusement:
> AR-1 » Flagship team, takes primary consideration for field missions » Exploration, establishes safety of a location for other teams to arrive » Diplomatic ⇛ Head of Expedition may be attached to this team, where AR-1 lends their expertise as required > AR-2 » Back-up for AR-1 » Headed by either military 2IC (i.e. Evan Lorne) or a third in command depending on Atlantis' situation > AR-3 » General security team » Headed by head of security (i.e. Bates) » Functions as additional manpower if AR-1 or AR-2 require it > AR-4 » Research team » 2IC for CSO would be on this team (i.e. Radek Zelenka) » Helps to establish a research site if required » Provides some additional security while also providing scientific expertise > AR-5 » Medical team » Provides emergency medical expertise to gate teams on an as-needed basis ⇛ Generally easier to send a back-up team to drag injured parties back to Atlantis » Can help set up a field hospital ⇛ Establishes a place for triage off-world ⇛ Establishes training site for triage of off-world individuals > AR-6 » Back-up security team » For when you need even more security » Tendency to bring the big guns > AR-7 » Mixed-context security team » For when you need technological expertise along with the big guns ⇛ i.e. finding someplace the Ancients built, oops people are now stuck and need help getting out » May join up with AR-4 ⇛ 2IC for CSO might float to this one as a situation requires > AR-8 » Research team, specialized » Head of team may be fixed while specialists may fluctuate > AR-9 » Combat engineering » As AR-6 has the big guns, AR-9 packed the C4 and the other explosives » Can also literally build bridges and other support structures » For when you need the heavy duty soldiers > AR-10 » Search and Rescue, Intelligence » Start of the double-digits of teams, which is when you know you need a more specialized approach » For the hairy situations that require a delicate touch » Can probably be considered diplomatic, after a stretch » Can work with AR-9 when utilizing their search and rescue function > AR-11 » Reconnaissance » Can work with AR-10 when utilizing AR-10's intelligence function » If a planet is known to be sketchy and/or AR-1 is already a couple steps ahead, send these people » Is not meant to stay off-world for long periods of time, may or may not be in uniform > AR-12 » Relocation » Specializes in helping establish off-world sites for both the expedition and any non-expedition refugees » Works with many of the above teams to accomplish this > AR-13 » Junk drawer » Designation for any additional members of the expedition, or non-expedition members temporarily added, according to mission needs
Something all of these teams have in common is that they're likely required to show a minimum level of proficiency as a potential gate team member. This means competency in such subjects as team hierarchies, group communication skills, weapons and combat training, and field first aid. A certification process is unlikely, as that would probably litter a service record, but some form that the CO fills out assessing that a potential gate team member is acceptable is probably one more stack of electronic paper to fill a CO's inbox.
Gate Team Training
Pulling from the previous paragraph, and continuing on from the general Training section, here are those pre-requisites in bullet-point format:
> Understanding of team hierarchies > Group communication skills > Weapons and combat training > Field first aid
Understanding of team hierarchies is reasonably simple. In a general situation, the team leader gives instructions, and the team member follows them. How these instructions are to be followed will likely have some ground rules, as the CO dictates, but per team might have some house rules in preferences.
Outside of that, a division of command labour might be instituted. For example, in AR-1, a situation that requires Teyla Emmagen or Ronon Dex to interpret cultural mores would lend more credence on their commands than John Sheppard, and likewise for situations involving Ancient technology (McKay) or complex explosives (Ford, also McKay). As each team has their own specializations, this means that standing orders on command hierarchies is part of the training process, and will likely also include inter-team and overall expedition priorities (i.e. AR-1 orders supersede AR-5, CAO orders supersede AR-1 orders, gate team member supersedes civilian expedition member, least injured supersedes most injured, etc).
Group communication skills are not only part of the understanding of team hierarchies, but also the tools that are used for communication. In this instance, radios and assorted back-up communication devices (i.e. flares, etc). As this incorporates technical skills, this means that training modules for the handling, storing, and repair of such technology would be a requirement to being on a gate team. This is something that everyone on AR-1, for example, can participate in developing a lesson plan, from McKay with Ancient technology repairs to Sheppard with radio communication protocols, to Emmagen, Ford, and Dex with auxiliary information and alternative methods of communication where necessary.
Weapons and combat training would be a necessity for every gate team member, not least for one's own self-defense. The more civilian a potential gate team member is (i.e. someone assigned to AR-5, AR-8, or AR-13), the more the focus will be on self-preservation skills such as "get to a safe place and wait for pick-up". More combat active gate teams will require more combat-skilled team members, and this would include those who are otherwise non-combatants, such as Rodney McKay.
Training in this area would include service weapons (rifle, sidearm, combat knife, etc) and hand-to-hand combat (i.e. what to do if you're disarmed, injured, or otherwise unable to get to or use your assigned service weapons, such as an enemy combatant's weapons). Again, this is something that every member of AR-1 can participate in creating a lesson plan for, from Sheppard and Ford as base service weaponry and combat, to McKay with Ancient technology, to Emmagen with bantos (and thus non-standard, improvised weaponry), and to Dex with Pegasus-specific firearms. Such training would also include basic combat strategies as a unit, as well as what a potential team member ought to know for self-defense when separated from their team.
Field first aid ought to be self-explanatory - being able to bandage one's own wounds, as well as tending to another's, is an invaluable skill that even the most civilian of team members ought to be able to accomplish. More specialized skills, such as surgery of internal organs, will likely have stop-gap measures as part of first aid training, in order to improve an injured team member's survival so that they may be relocated to a safer location. Basic surgical skills are to be expected, as well as skills such as shrapnel removal, setting of most bones, and initial treatment of head injuries. Additional skills, such as learning how to create splints and litters, as well as biohazard containment protocols, would be desired advanced skills in gate team members.
Concluding Remarks
As the Science Division has its own departments with a personnel composition suited to goals that contribute to the overall mission of the expedition, the gate teams function as a primary section of the Military Division. Other duties as assigned would be orders as described in the Military Division overview post (link here), and combined, this provides the other hand that the CAO operates with to fulfill mission parameters.
This series of headcanons hopefully fills in some plotholes with canon, and provides a better framework of reference for ideas about how various characters might behave, according to the roles they're hired for and why they might make the decisions they do in canon.

"Knowledge without understanding is as dangerous to the disciple as ignorance itself. Those who glimpse that they do not understand fall to illogic. Illogic must not be tolerated."
- Meditations on the Unknowable, 976th revision.
Security Signum: Vermillion
Additional Materials Appended: Pict-capture 1
Additional Materials Appended: while the most visible members of the Collegiate Extremis to me and my colleagues are frequently their procurator agents, the organization does maintain their own militias of constructs and cyborgs when open conflict is needed and local forgeworld assets cannot be directly commandeered. The Templars Obscurus are one such military order, dedicated to a particularly necessary blasphemy in the Colegiate's work, the destruction of knowledge. Suspect dark mechanicum elements and more radical members of the mechanicus frequently deal in information which can be hazardous to simply perceive, let alone remember (something our order is similat versed in), so these Skitarii are designed to best shield them and their masters from possible memetic hazards.
Picked only from the most zealous of the legions, Obscurus storm troopers are excised from the Mechanicus noosphere and stripped of all forms of vox equipment to prevent contaminants from spreading quickly. Additionally, a complex series of psychosurgeries partitions their long term memory into a series of read-only directives set physically by mechanicus datasmiths while preventing them from retaining new memories for longer than a few days. These necessary handicaps are redeemed by a nearly unprecedented level of personal autonomy for a mechanicus construct and considerable material advantages in the wargear they are provided. Whip blades and flamers seem standard issue for their efficacy at sending a message to dissident sects, but I've observed Templars Obscurus armed with radium, plasma, and grav weapons, as well as a wide and esoteric variety of close combat tools.
Tau-Sigma 10924-a was seconded to me for my current investigations on Aprec Secundus. Their presence is unerving, even for me, and I can't help shake the feeling that Magos Cuthea intends to use them to spy on me despite her assurances. However, their effectiveness in combat cannot be overstated and their presence has been gently mandated by the Fane-Quorum, so for now I can simply watch and collect further data

Tlaib repeatedly used the term genocide — a term originally coined to describe the murder of 6 million Jews in the Holocaust — when describing the tragic deaths of Gazan civilians. All casualty figures from the now eight-month war come from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Ministry of Health. Leading urban war experts, including West Point’s John Spencer, repeatedly stated that the precautions Israel has taken to prevent civilian harm during this war not only surpasses that of any military in history, including the United States, but also go above and beyond what is required by international law, according to reporting from Tablet magazine.
According to reports from the Israel Defense Forces, 12,000 Hamas terrorists have been killed and most of these are men.
Tlaib also repeatedly delivered a message that providing Israel with military aid takes away from funding social issues that are important to her progressive constituents. According to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, the federal government allocated about 1% of total spending to foreign aid. This is consistent with trends over the past 20 years.
According to the Congressional Research Service, the United States committed over $3.3 billion in foreign assistance to Israel in 2022, with $8.8 million allocated to the country’s economy and the rest toward the Israeli military.
All current military aid to Israel is part of the 10-year, $38 billion Memorandum of Understanding signed with the U.S. in 2016. The MOU supports updating the Israeli aircraft fleet and maintaining the country’s missile defense system. The agreement commits $500 million in missile defense funding and $3.3 billion in other military funding each year from 2019 to 2028.
In February, Congress passed an emergency package of military aid to Israel to the tune of $14 billion. To this, Tlaib decried the decision as “funding genocide.”
To the responses of “shame” from the audience, Tlaib said: “I watched my colleagues, one by one voting yes to send $14 billion to the apartheid regime. All I kept thinking is that the United States is the primary investor and funder of genocide. We are literally co-conspirators.”
Getting it wrong
Of local interest was Tlaib’s misleading claim that there is currently no lead-free drinking water for Detroit’s schoolchildren.
In 2018, lead and copper were detected in water from drinking fountains in many Detroit Public Schools Community District buildings. All drinking fountains were disabled and covered with garbage bags.
In 2019, according to Chalk-beat, over 500 water hydration stations were installed at every district school with built-in filters to purify the water from any lead or copper. The project was made possible by $3 million in donations from companies, foundations, organizations and individual donors. No taxpayer money was on the project.
Additional funding signed into law by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in February 2024 provided $50 million in state funding to install lead-reducing water stations at schools and childcare centers throughout the state.
All state public schools and childcare centers must test their drinking water every two years, according to the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy.
