#Ultimate Nipper

⚠️Vote for whomever YOU DO NOT KNOW⚠️‼️

[shrekgogurt]

I have been watching one million YouTube video essays about pop culture and emphatically not writing over the past several days. This chapter was supposed to be a shorter one and now it’s shaping up to be the longest one so far and I’m deeply frustrated by it. I want it done. Only 3/6 of the POVs are “finished” (aka beta ready) and one of the Baz POVs needs a lot reworked. Narratively, it was the chapter I was least looking forward to writing and in trying to redeem it (infuse it with more emotion) it’s just getting so big. Nevertheless, so many people are out and about today so I’m serving up the first sentence of each POV.

It’s the first day of classes and I’m already in trouble.

I wouldn’t venture so far as to say I have a spring in my step, but I’m faring better than I was last month.

A man who appears to have walked fresh off the set of a k-pop music video just called Baz’s name and I’m not handling it well.

[this is the POV that needs so much reworking so instead here is one sentence I know will stay] “If you’ve been feeling part of the scenery, perhaps you should walk right out of the machinery.”

As I stare at the three gates blocking our exit, I suddenly wish Penny had more friends.

Snow is a bloody contagion.

Okay I’m a little bit just whining some more down here. But GODDAMN it! I keep reading so many beautiful masterpieces by y’all and getting so inspired and wanting to make my shit better. Which is good! But also! This chapter is now 10x harder to write because I want it to be deeper now than it originally would’ve been. And ultimately, again, that’s good! But it’s so much more effort. And I’m being really really hard on myself and the output. And it’s not currently super duper fun. More like when you know what something could be or should be but you can’t get it to shape properly. Or rather, I’m angsty about putting forth the energy to mash it all up to make it better than before. So…it’s all growth. Just a pain in the ass.

Not to mention, the key to unlocking more depth for the Baz bits is Hejira which is a fucking masterpiece. (How can I be Joni? No one can be Joni!) And he doesn’t start out there! I have to bring him to this place of reflection! And like cover the time elapsed. And it’s HARD! BOO! EVIL! I’m doing it to myself!

May the spirit of poetry hopefully overtake me. It’s terribly lacking in this chapter. (I think I’ll be forever chasing the damn high of chapter thirteen.)

Okay done whining.

Nail Care Routine

Introduction to Nail Care

Nail care is an often-overlooked aspect of personal grooming that plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and appearance. Proper nail care not only enhances the aesthetics of your hands and feet but also prevents various nail-related issues. Establishing a comprehensive nail care routine can significantly improve the health and strength of your nails, ensuring they remain resilient and visually appealing.

Importance of Regular Nail Maintenance

Regular nail maintenance is essential to prevent common issues such as hangnails, fungal infections, and breakage. A consistent nail care routine can keep your nails clean, strong, and free from infections, ultimately reflecting your overall health. Neglecting nail care can lead to painful conditions that may require medical attention and can impact your daily activities.

Essential Tools for Nail Care

Basic Tools

The foundation of any effective nail care routine lies in the tools you use. Basic tools include nail clippers, a nail file, a buffer, and a cuticle pusher. These tools are essential for maintaining the shape, length, and smoothness of your nails.

Specialized Tools

For those looking to elevate their nail care routine, specialized tools such as electric nail files, cuticle nippers, and nail brushes can be incorporated. These tools provide a more precise and professional-level of care, allowing you to address specific nail concerns more effectively.

Daily Nail Care Routine

Cleansing

Cleansing your nails daily is fundamental to maintaining hygiene. Use a gentle nail brush to remove dirt and debris from under your nails, followed by a thorough wash with mild soap and warm water. This step ensures that your nails remain clean and free from bacteria.

Moisturizing

Moisturizing is crucial to prevent dryness and brittleness. Apply a nourishing hand cream or cuticle oil to your nails and cuticles daily. This helps to keep them hydrated and supple, reducing the likelihood of cracks and splits.

Weekly Nail Care Routine

Trimming

Weekly trimming helps maintain the desired length and shape of your nails. Use high-quality nail clippers to trim your nails straight across, avoiding rounded edges to prevent ingrown nails.

Filing

After trimming, file your nails to smooth any rough edges. Use a fine-grit nail file and file in one direction to avoid weakening the nail. Proper filing helps to maintain the shape and prevent snags.

Monthly Nail Care Routine

Deep Conditioning

Once a month, treat your nails to a deep conditioning treatment. Soak your nails in warm oil or a moisturizing solution for about 10-15 minutes. This intensive hydration helps to strengthen your nails and promote healthy growth.

Cuticle Care

Cuticle care is vital for nail health. Gently push back your cuticles using a cuticle pusher after soaking your nails. Avoid cutting the cuticles as this can lead to infections.

Proper Techniques for Nail Trimming

When trimming your nails, it is essential to use proper techniques to avoid damage. Cut your nails when they are dry to prevent splitting, and trim them straight across to reduce the risk of ingrown nails. Always use sharp, clean nail clippers for the best results.

The Art of Filing Nails

Choosing the Right File

Selecting the appropriate nail file is crucial. Glass or crystal files are gentle on nails and provide a smooth finish, while metal files can be harsh and cause splitting.

Filing Techniques

File your nails in one direction using gentle strokes to avoid fraying. Start from the side of the nail and move towards the center, repeating on the opposite side. This technique helps to maintain the integrity of the nail.

Moisturizing and Hydration

Best Moisturizers

Choose moisturizers that contain ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil, and vitamin E. These ingredients provide deep hydration and nourish the nails and cuticles.

Hydrating Techniques

In addition to daily moisturizing, incorporate overnight treatments such as applying a thick layer of hand cream and wearing cotton gloves. This allows the moisturizer to penetrate deeply, providing intensive hydration.

Addressing Common Nail Problems

Brittle Nails

Brittle nails can be a sign of dehydration or nutritional deficiencies. Regular moisturizing and incorporating biotin-rich foods into your diet can help strengthen brittle nails.

Nail Fungus

Nail fungus is a common issue that can be addressed with antifungal treatments. Keeping your nails dry and clean is crucial in preventing fungal infections.

Discoloration

Discoloration of nails can be caused by various factors, including nail polish, smoking, or underlying health conditions. Regular cleansing and the use of a nail whitener can help reduce discoloration.

Importance of a Balanced Diet for Healthy Nails

A balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals is essential for healthy nails. Incorporate foods high in biotin, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids to promote nail strength and growth. Adequate hydration also plays a significant role in maintaining nail health.

Natural Remedies for Nail Care

Home Remedies

Home remedies such as soaking your nails in a mixture of lemon juice and olive oil can help to strengthen and brighten them. Additionally, applying a mixture of honey and milk can provide hydration and nourishment.

Essential Oils

Essential oils like tea tree oil and lavender oil have antifungal and antibacterial properties that can help maintain nail health. Dilute these oils with a carrier oil and apply them to your nails and cuticles regularly.

Maintaining a regular nail care routine is essential for healthy, strong, and beautiful nails. By incorporating these practices into your daily, weekly, and monthly regimen, you can ensure that your nails remain in optimal condition. Prioritize your nail health, and enjoy the benefits of well-cared-for nails.

Thanks for tagging me this week @rimeswithpurple​, @larkral​, @artsyunderstudy​, @vukovich​ and @blackberrysummerblog​. Loved all of your snippets!

I’ve finished chapter 3 of Once upon a time and started chapter 4. Here’s a bit from Simon’s POV:

“What?” I ask, confused, a wave of panic making my palms sweat. “You can smell magic on people?”

“I can smell and see and hear all sorts of things that normal people don’t even notice,” he replies softly, as if it were a secret between us. I wonder how many people beside me and his parents know that he’s a vampire.

A part of me wants him to know, to find out my own secret.

There is a small part of me, the dark one that I always try to ignore, that wants him to see the monster that I’ve become. And I like sharing secrets with him, so I take a step closer, until I’m almost touching him. I watch the silver rings of his eyes reach up to meet mine, his lovely eyelashes fluttering a couple of times as his nostrils flare. His tongue appears for a moment, licking his bottom lip and making it look inviting and soft and so kissable that I have to clench my fists to repress the urge to lean in for a kiss.

“What do I smell like, then?” I whisper instead.

I’ve also started drafting a snowbaz superheroes + flatmates AU that hit me like a brick as I was cleaning this morning. Have an extra bit:

“Where are you going with that box?” Baz asks, leaning on his doorway with a cup of coffee in his hand when Simon’s done depositing the last of his boxes outside his door.

“Moving out,” Simon replies tiredly. He doesn’t want to do this. He wishes he could just leave without Baz rubbing it in that he’s a failure at absolutely everything. He wishes he could just sneak out of the door and then maybe come back one day when he’s got his shit together. But he knows someone else would be living here by then. A new neighbour that Baz will either annoy to death or charm with his model’s looks and mile-long legs.

“Where to?”

“My friend Penny,” Simon replies. Then, since he has a masochistic streak, he feels the need to add. “Her sofa. Can’t afford the rent here anymore.”

“Well, it might come as a surprise to you because you can’t read,” Baz says, pointing at a sign on his door that wasn’t there twenty minutes ago, when Simon started hauling boxes across the hallway they share, “but I am looking for a flatmate. I happen to have a spare room, and I need cash.”

“No, you don’t,” Simon points out with a frown, carefully reading Baz’s slanted cursive to check he’s not taking the ultimate piss. It does say Flatmate wanted. Enquire within. “Besides, the landlord would kick you out if he found out that you’re subletting.”

“Snow, I own the flat,” Baz deadpans.

The Ultimate Nail Extension Kit List: Essential Tools

In this article, Nail Supplies Mumbai presents a comprehensive Nail Extension Kit List that covers all the necessary items to create flawless nail extensions. Nail Extension Kit List are becoming a popular trend for achieving long, glamorous nails without waiting for natural growth. Whether you’re a professional nail artist or an enthusiast looking to perfect your at-home manicure game, having the right tools is essential.

 1. Nail File and Buffer No nail extension kit is complete without a quality nail file and buffer. These are essential for shaping the nails and prepping the surface before applying extensions.

 Nail File: A good 180/100 grit nail file is ideal for shaping natural nails and extensions.

 Buffer: A soft buffer helps to smooth out the surface of the nail, providing a smooth canvas for the application.

Nail Supplies Mumbai offers a wide range of professional-grade nail files and buffers to ensure the best results.

2. Nail Extension Forms or Tips One of the key elements in any nail extension process is choosing between nail forms or tips, depending on your preference and skill level.

Nail Forms: For a sculpted and natural look, nail forms are placed under the natural nail to create the extension.

Nail Tips: These are pre-shaped plastic tips glued to the edge of the natural nail and then shaped to the desired length.

Nail Supplies Mumbai provides high-quality nail forms and tips to match every nail shape and design.

 3. Nail Glue Nail glue is essential for attaching tips to the natural nail or sealing the edges of extensions. Opt for a strong, fast-drying nail glue to ensure your extensions stay intact for weeks.

Quick-drying Glue: Helps speed up the process and reduces the risk of nails slipping out of place.

Long-lasting Formula: Ensures the extensions stay strong and durable for long wear.

With Nail Supplies Mumbai, you can find high-quality nail glue that adheres perfectly and lasts longer.

4. Acrylic or Gel System Choosing between acrylic and gel systems is a personal preference, but both are fundamental in creating sturdy nail extensions.

Acrylic System: This includes acrylic powder and monomer. When combined, these create a hard surface that mimics natural nails.

Gel System: Gel extensions use a thick gel that hardens under a UV or LED lamp, offering a shinier, more flexible finish.

Nail Supplies Mumbai offers both acrylic and gel extension systems, ensuring you can choose the one that best suits your style and technique.

 5. UV/LED Lamp If you opt for gel extensions, a UV/LED lamp is a must. It is used to cure and harden the gel, ensuring the nails dry quickly and thoroughly.

UV Lamp: This is suitable for curing all types of gel, but the curing time is longer.

LED Lamp: It cures gel faster than a UV lamp, reducing overall drying time.

Nail Supplies Mumbai provides efficient and portable UV/LED lamps that work with a variety of gel products, making them ideal for both professional and home use.

 6. Cuticle Pusher and Nipper Proper nail prep is critical for any nail extension procedure. A cuticle pusher and nipper help to clean the nail bed and remove dead skin, ensuring better adhesion of nail extensions.

Cuticle Pusher: Used to gently push back the cuticles, making the nail bed clean and ready for the application.

Cuticle Nipper: Helps trim away any dead skin around the cuticles for a clean, polished look.

Nail Supplies Mumbai offers ergonomic and easy-to-use cuticle pushers and nippers that deliver professional results.

 7. Nail Dehydrator and Primer Before applying any extension material, it’s essential to prepare the natural nails with a nail dehydrator and primer. These products remove moisture and oils from the nail surface, ensuring better adhesion.

Nail Dehydrator: Helps to eliminate oils and moisture, preventing lifting and ensuring longer-lasting extensions.

Nail Primer: Creates a tacky surface for better adhesion of the extension material, whether it’s acrylic, gel, or dip powder.

Nail Supplies Mumbai provides top-tier dehydrators and primers that are crucial for achieving flawless, long-lasting nail extensions.

 8. Nail Brush A high-quality nail brush is necessary for applying acrylic powder, gel, or cleaning the nails during the extension process. Different brushes are used for different techniques, so make sure you have the correct type in your kit.

Acrylic Brushes: Usually made from natural bristles, these are perfect for picking up and applying acrylic powder.

Gel Brushes: Synthetic bristle brushes are best for applying and shaping gel.

Nail Supplies Mumbai offers a variety of nail brushes in different sizes and materials, ensuring precision and ease of use.

 9. Dappen Dish The Dappen Dish is used to hold liquid monomer for acrylic applications. Having a durable, spill-proof dish ensures that your workspace stays neat and organized.

Glass Dappen Dish: Ideal for holding monomer and acrylic liquids, as glass doesn’t react with chemicals.

Dual-Compartment Dappen Dish: Useful for professionals working with multiple products, such as monomer and cleansers.

Nail Supplies Mumbai stocks a range of dappen dishes, making it easier to handle liquid products without the mess.

 10. Nail Extension Removal Tools Once it’s time to remove the nail extensions, you’ll need the proper tools to do so safely and effectively. This includes a nail drill, acetone, and foil wraps.

Nail Drill: Used to file down the extension material and prepare it for soaking off.

Acetone Soak: Helps to dissolve the acrylic or gel for easy removal.

Foil Wraps: Used to wrap the acetone-soaked cotton around the nails for quicker removal.

Nail Supplies Mumbai carries professional-grade nail drills, acetone, and removal wraps, ensuring a smooth and painless removal process.

Conclusion Having the right tools in your nail extension kit is crucial for achieving professional-looking results at home or in the salon.

Gangland Legends

Legend, directed by Brian Helgeland, is a gripping biographical crime drama based on the rise and fall of the notorious Kray twins, as depicted in John Pearson’s book The Profession of Violence. The film centers on Reggie and Ronnie Kray, infamous figures in 1960s London’s criminal underworld. With Tom Hardy delivering a remarkable dual performance as both brothers, the movie takes viewers deep into their brutal journey of power, violence, and ultimately, imprisonment.

The story kicks off with Reggie Kray, an ex-boxer turned criminal mastermind, as he secures his brother Ron’s early release from a psychiatric hospital. The twins quickly consolidate their control over London's criminal enterprises, gaining dominance when a rival gang leader from south London is imprisoned. The Krays use intimidation, extortion, and violence to establish their reign, including taking over a local nightclub.

While Reggie attempts to maintain a relationship with Frances, his driver's sister, his promise to leave his life of crime unfulfilled. Frances, believing in a better future, marries him, but as Reggie is jailed for a previous conviction, Ron’s erratic behavior threatens their empire. Ron's mental instability and violent tendencies wreak havoc on their business, scaring away patrons and pushing the nightclub to the brink of closure. Upon Reggie's release, tensions between the brothers lead to an intense fistfight, though they ultimately attempt to reconcile.

As their criminal operations expand, the Krays strike a lucrative deal with Angelo Bruno of the Philadelphia crime family, representing the American Mafia. But Ron’s paranoia and aggression cause chaos. His actions escalate when he murders George Cornell, an associate of a rival gang, bringing unwanted attention from Scotland Yard and opening a full-fledged investigation into the Krays' criminal activities.

Reg’s marriage to Frances unravels as his involvement in crime deepens, and her despair drives her to substance abuse. After a violent outburst where Reg beats her, Frances leaves him. Tragically, she later takes her own life, leaving Reggie guilt-ridden.

The brothers’ empire begins to crumble as internal betrayal arises. Ron hires Jack "the Hat" McVitie to kill Leslie Payne, the legal mind behind their operations, but the attempt fails, prompting Payne to inform Detective Leonard "Nipper" Read about the Krays’ activities. In a climactic moment, Reg brutally stabs McVitie at a party, sealing the brothers' fate.

In the film’s conclusion, both brothers are arrested and convicted of murder. Reggie was sentenced for McVitie’s death, while Ron faced charges for Cornell’s killing. The movie closes with their convictions, and the epilogue reveals that Ron died of a heart attack in 1995, followed by Reggie’s death from cancer in 2000.

Legend is a chilling exploration of the Kray twins' chaotic legacy—famed for their violence and feared for their control over London's dark side.

[shrekgogurt]

Well folks. I’m on my substitute teaching grind again this week! Scheduled each day up in hopes of getting some good writing done. I did on Monday! And then proceeded to finally start reading @ninemagicks Game/Set/Match yesterday and did that every bell so uhhhhhh. Today………..well ummmmm…..yeah today I worked on chapter graphics because I’m in big procrastination mode. I want to keep riding this wave of engagement (that sounds corporate gross) but I’m also very much in my head about delivering. I should probably channel this energy into writing the chapter since such pressure is Baz’s literal arc but uhhhhhhhh why do that when I could Simon avoid. I love being mentally well!

One might say I need to find my own bravado. (more under the cut)

lol the chapter title for 13 is bravado by lorde

ok anyway

“Work In Progress Wednesday” right? That means I can talk about the progress of every part of the process? Huh? Yeah? Are you gonna stop me? TRY! TRY TO STOP ME!

Aggression aside, let’s get into it.

As previously stated on Sunday, we find ourselves at intermission. But that’s just the theatrical way of slicing up the story. The fun thing about 24 chapters (I got rid of my originally planned intermission chapter because I didn’t want to write it anymore) is that math really loves the number 24. It’s scrumptious. Yummily divisible. Ergo, IKABIKAM also has/is/will be deliciously divided. Afterall, I do keep saying I’m cooking on it.

Now, to put @alexalexinii on blast (sorry for perceiving you), they wrote in the tags of a Chapter 12 reblog: #made me realise that this fic had proper arcs? And I grinned. I cackled. I rubbed my grubby little hands together at the top of my tower as I’ve been doing this whole time because oh ARCS???????? YOU WANT ARCS???????????? I’VE GOT ARCS LYING IN WAIT LIKE YOU WOULDN’T BELIEVE. (I love overselling myself.)

Allow me to let you in on some of the building blocks thus far.

Chapters 1, 2, 3: a complicated reunion which is shaky but ultimately sets up

Chapters 4, 5, 6: developing the friendship which is a crucial foundation for

Chapters 7, 8, 9: the gay (Baz’s increasingly more external “hi i’m gay”, Simon’s internal “oh wait me too”) which then explodes into

Chapters 10, 11, 12: all that political parent stuff that’s been hinted at in passing which is BIG relevant and incredibly intertwined in this tangled up mess that leads into the work of….

You get it. They’re mini trilogies. Don’t ask me about dividing the chapters into groups of four because I didn’t have that in mind while writing. I like threes better. Always have. Absolute banger of a prime number.

If you for some reason want to read more about the structure, I write a little more about it in this wipsday from when I was procrastinating 9.

Now, @cutestkilla keeps telling me I’m at the downward slope now but honestly delivering on what I’ve set up scares the shit out of me WAY more than the grunt work. I’m uhhhhh yeah. This is why I’m chronically unable to finish projects but by GOD I will finish this one. I swear by it.

So here are three sentences. You get to guess from who and when.

Loving him comes as naturally as breathing. It’s intuitive when I’m not thinking. Or rather, when I’m not panicking.

If you want to follow along with all the songs I’m hyperfixating on as inspiration I’ve been sharing them over on the “shrogurt” instagram. There’s nothing I love more than talking way too much about this damn fic. Thanks for reading!

And thank you for the tags today: @nausikaaa @facewithoutheart @hushed-chorus @artsyunderstudy @prettygoododds @emeryhall

Now tagging: @brilla-brilla-estrellita @captain-aralias @dani-vc @ebbpettier @excalisbury @facewithoutheart @fatalfangirl @hagnoart @iamamythologicalcreature @ileadacharmedlife @imagineacoolusername @ivelovedhimthroughworse @j-nipper-95 @larkral @letraspal @martsonmars @messofthejess @moodandmist @mooncello @nightimedreamersworld @onepintobean @palimpsessed @raenestee @rimeswithpurple @theearlgreymage @theimpossibledemon @thewholelemon @valeffelees @whogaveyoupermission @youarenevertooold @you-remind-me-of-the-babe

There was a small part of her that, ultimately, was kicking her for not paying more attention to the briefing of common courtesies that would be accepted this side of the world. Though, when she watched Aemond now, she quickly realised that her accidental ignorance had worked in her favour. The tiefling let out a breath she hadn't realised she'd been holding and she felt herself quickly relax. Whether that would be a mistake in the months to come would remain to be seen. She hoped not. The warmth of the afternoon air was rather lovely, though she found herself quickly missing the cacophony of smells that city held.

The smell of busyness. Sweat, sex, muck and perfumes being peddled in the streets. The animals that were kept strictly outside of the gates if they were not rat catchers, and how the newcomers would wrinkle their noses at the thought. Gods, she would miss the food most of all, as she assumed that particular rations offered to armies held nothing of the comforts of the lamb, stews and sweet treats of home. She'd devoured the sweets that she'd brought with her on the boat over, and even shared one with a child who'd been scared about sailing.

She hoped they had made it to their aunt's home alright, and Karlach quickly realised that the farewell given on the docks would be the last she would hear of her. A pity. She had hoped to have a cat ... No, not the time for getting distracted, was it?

The more she thought of Faerun, the needier the longing for home felt. She was an orphan, with parents long dead, but to fight for the idea of her home and for what felt like the greater good was something worthwhile in the long run. For home, there was no man nor beast she wouldn't face for the protection of it, and though her axe, brand new and gifted, had yet to taste a lick of blood, would always fight in the name of it.

"I understand that fight. For home, I mean. I might not have anyone waiting for me on my return - maybe a broken heart or two - but for me? It reminds me of everything I've ever loved. My mum and dad are buried in the city. I played on the cobblestones as a nipper. Ate the sweets the bakers threw out to us at the end of the day." Simpler times, when the worry of where her next meal was going to come from was something she had heard of, not experiences.

Karlach's eye turned away from the stretch of land before them, and she moved to catch his eye again. It did not seem unfriendly, but she didn't know much about this prince, outside of them trading conversation here and in this moment. They'd tried to teach her, but she preferred the method of hands-on learning over pouring over tomes and tomes of carefully and meticulously compiled text and in rooms far stuffier than she liked.

"This axe of mine's yet to taste blood. It was a parting gift, because mine was on its last legs and the butt rattled against the haft when I swung it." Well-loved and well used, she almost missed the feel of the worn leather on the handle. "You'll find no braver soldier than me, Your Grace. That I can assure you." Not promises. He'd already reminded her that when it came to war, those were easily broken.

Karlach Cliffgate was a woman of her word. Stalwart, steadfast. He didn't know her from every other Tom, Dick or Harry, and she quickly realised that she would have to prove herself on the battlefield before anything else. She didn't mind that. She was good at that. Almost born to fight wars for the greater good. She fidgeted. A small hop from one foot to the other and as brief as a horse shifting its weight from one side to the other. Too much standing still, these past few weeks. Energy brewed and tingled throughout her in a way that made it difficult for her to truly stand at peace. A habit her mother had been exasperated about when she'd been trying to fix her hair as a child.

"One thing I can vouch for, actually, is about my heart. My blade's been bought before, but my heart? Highly sought after, if I can say that without coming off as vain." She let out a little laugh. "Sorry, terrible joke. But it's always in the right place. That's what I can say with absolute certainty. Cross it and all."

The grip she returned spoke volumes. It wasn't just strength but respect, a mutual recognition between warriors who understood the language of battle. She was the kind who valued actions over words, an attribute he found surprisingly refreshing. Most he dealt with in these times, whether lords or knights, hid behind their titles and courtesies. Karlach, by contrast, wore her nature openly, unashamed of her origins or purpose.

Her mention of spiders nearly drew a smile to his lips, though he managed to keep his expression as composed as ever. It was an unexpected confession, almost laughable in its simplicity compared to the fears that had crippled grown men. It was a glimpse into her character, a being of fire and strength who could face down armies, yet found revulsion in the small, creeping things of the world. It made her more real, more grounded, this glimpse of humanity amid her otherworldly form.

He listened to her explanation with a silent intensity, her words cutting through the air with a rough honesty that was becoming her hallmark. There was something about her straightforwardness that made it easy to understand where she stood. She had not come here to spy or deceive but to act, to offer her axe and see where it could do the most damage. It was a refreshing change from the myriad of political games he navigated daily, where intentions were murky and words were weapons more than swords.

When she spoke of home, he found himself drawn into her world, if only for a moment. The way she described it was so far removed from his experience that it felt almost foreign. A place to fight for, a place that made the pain worth enduring. It stirred something in him, an idea of what could have been had his life not been forged in the fires of power and duty. Home, for him, was a battlefield, the roar of dragonfire, the clash of steel. It had never been a place of comfort but of conflict, where every day was a fight to secure his legacy.

" Home, " he echoed thoughtfully, the word tasting strange on his tongue. " For some, it is a distant dream. For others, a memory of what was lost. " He let the words hang, his gaze turning momentarily to the horizon, as if searching for something beyond the scope of the present. " I have seen men throw their lives away for the idea of home, for the comfort of a place they may never return to. Yet they fight as if they could reclaim it through blood and steel. "

His eye returned to her, sharp yet not unkind. " You speak as if you understand that, " he observed, his tone softer than before. " That the scars, the pain, all become bearable when there is something, someone, worth fighting for. " It was not a sentiment he often allowed himself to entertain. His life had been a series of battles fought for the sake of power, for the throne that cast its shadow over all in Westeros. Yet hearing her words, he could not help but consider the possibility that there was more to life than conquest.

Her offer was direct, simple in its clarity. A weapon to be aimed, a force to be unleashed. It was a rare thing, to meet someone who laid their intentions bare with such forthrightness. He respected that, even if it came from a place of naivety about the world she had walked into. " An axe is a useful tool, " he remarked, his voice taking on a contemplative edge. " But in these lands, it is not the sharpness of the blade that wins wars, but the willingness to wield it, to face what lies ahead without flinching. "

He studied her again, noting the determination in her eyes, the ease with which she spoke of fighting and the scars it left behind. She was more than just a warrior; she was someone who lived for the struggle, who found meaning in the chaos of battle. In that, they were not so different. His life had been one endless conflict after another, each scar a testament to the battles he had survived.

" You speak of having little to lose, " he finally said, his gaze steady upon her. " And yet you speak of home as if it is something you have left behind. Something you still hold within you. " He paused, his voice lowering slightly. " If you truly have nothing to lose, then you have everything to gain. But be warned, Karlach of Baldur's Gate, these lands are unforgiving. They will test the mettle of your blade and the resolve of your heart. "

There was a moment of silence, the air thick with the unspoken understanding between them. In this brief exchange, he had learned more of her than he often did with those who surrounded him daily. She was a warrior, yes, but she was also something more, a creature of fire and passion, of honesty in a world that thrived on deception. He did not yet trust her fully, but he found himself wanting to know more, to understand what drove this fierce woman who had crossed into his world.
