Veterinary Dog Grooming:Canine Pampering With Petzzco

In the world of pet care and animal wellness, few experiences are as cherished and appreciated as the age-old practice of dog grooming.

The soothing touch of a skilled groomer, the tantalizing aroma of specialized shampoos, and the transformative magic of a grooming session can turn even the scruffiest of canines into four-legged aristocrats. At Petzzco, we pride ourselves on providing top-tier veterinary dog grooming services that not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of your furry friend but also contribute significantly to their overall health and well-being.

The Essence of Veterinary Dog Grooming

Why does dog grooming matter? The answer to this question goes beyond aesthetics. While a freshly groomed pup is undeniably charming, the benefits extend far beneath the surface. Veterinary dog grooming is an essential component of responsible pet ownership and plays a crucial role in ensuring your dog's health and happiness.

Maintaining Skin and Coat Health

The skin is a dog's largest organ, and maintaining its health is of paramount importance. Regular grooming helps in the early detection of skin issues, such as irritations, infections, or parasites. Our experienced groomers at Petzzco are trained to spot these issues and take necessary actions promptly. Additionally, grooming stimulates the production of natural oils, keeping the coat glossy and skin supple.

Preventing Matting and Tangling

Long-haired breeds are particularly susceptible to matting and tangling of fur. These tangles can be painful and lead to skin issues. Our professional grooming team excels at keeping your dog's coat in prime condition, preventing painful matting and ensuring a comfortable and happy pet.

Nail Care and Paw Health

Untrimmed nails can cause your furry friend discomfort and even lead to joint issues. At Petzzco, we take care of your dog's nails and paw health with precision and expertise, ensuring their paws are in the best possible condition for those long walks and playful romps.

The Grooming Process

Bathing and Shampooing

Our pampering journey begins with a luxurious bath using premium, hypoallergenic shampoos and conditioners. We tailor our products to your dog's specific needs, whether they have sensitive skin or require extra moisturization.

Brushing and Detangling

A thorough brushing is the next step, removing loose fur, preventing matting, and giving your dog a glossy, well-groomed appearance. This step is not just about aesthetics; it's about ensuring your dog's comfort.

Styling and Trimming

For those who prefer a bit of flair, our grooming experts can create stylish cuts and trims to match your dog's personality. Whether it's a classic breed-specific trim or a trendy style, we've got you covered.

Ear Cleaning and Dental Care

Our comprehensive grooming package includes ear cleaning and dental care. Clean ears are essential for preventing infections, and a healthy mouth leads to a happy, odor-free dog.

Finishing Touches

To complete the transformation, our grooming experts add the final touches, such as bows, bandanas, or even a spritz of dog-friendly perfume. These little details make your dog feel like royalty.

Why Choose Petzzco for Dog Grooming?

Alastor with a female reader who is selectively mute Part 2

Here is part 2 of this story. Mimzy is gonna be in this story as well, since we havent heard her talk yet or what her personality is like, im just gonna write how I think she will talk and act. Enjoy everyone:)

***5 Months Later***

You had adapted to hell surprisingly well. Yes there was some bumps along the way, due to you being mute, but you adjusted as time went on. Your relationships with everyone in the hotel had grown significantly. Charlie adored you and loved you like a sister. She was this close to telling her dad if it was possible to adopt you into the family, but you frantically declined as you suspected it would complicate things, but it was sweet that she loved you so much to do that. Vaggie slowly adjusted to you, don't blame her, she was always untrustworthy of everyone in the hotel, but she came around sooner or later. She offered to teach you some self defense as you were still an easy target. It was a bit difficult, but you managed despite your clumsiness. Angel Dust was a bit annoying in the beginning as he really wanted to hear your voice, but the puppy dog eyes you gave him made him quit. Now he treats you like his bestie, taking you shopping and having you attend some of his shows, which flustered you, but you wanted to support him. Niffty found you adorable when you first met and she still does. She has tried not to speed run towards you, since it always shocked you, causing you to drop your notepad in the past. It took a while, but she was able to do it. Husk was literally your dad figure. He always came over when you appeared upset about something and offered to cheer you up with his card tricks or make you a virgin cocktail, especially since your alcohol tolerance was negative 1000. You loved that he became that caring towards you, especially how gruff he was with everyone else. Sir Pentious was a new addition to the hotel. He first appeared when he tried to blow up the hotel a second time, only for Al to defeat him easily. Later after that, he became a patron at the hotel. He wondered why you didn't speak, but after a talk with Charlie and Vaggie, he no longer questioned it. He did enjoy your company, whenever you came to his work space, as he was crafting his inventions. His Egg Bois adored you as well, which pleased him. Alastor had become almost your protector/best friend. Its crazy to think how in the beginning, he was a bit annoyed when you didn't respond to his question, to now where he was always there to help you whenever you were in a pickle. His radio tower was your sanctuary as you always headed up there during his broadcasts. Alastor would always anticipate you coming as well, as it made his day a whole lot better whenever you showed up and took a seat next to him, admiring him as he continued his broadcast.

Getting ready for the day, you stood in front of your mirror, making sure you look spiffy. Alastor had invited you to attend one of Mimzy's shows at her club. Excitement raced through your body, and you nodded quickly when he asked you. Alastor mentioned before that her shows were very entertaining, so it made you very happy when he invited you to come. After a few minutes of looking yourself over, you walked over to the bed and grabbed the cell phone that was there. Charlie had gotten you it a few weeks ago as a gift. She had installed a text to speech app on it, so whatever you typed on the phone, a voice would respond back. Tears filled your eyes when she gave it to you, almost apologizing for all the trouble she had to go through to get it for you, but she said it was fine and it hardly cost anything. You knew she was royalty, so one cell phone wouldn't be a big deal, but it was to you. After a bunch of persuasion from Charlie saying it was really alright, you accepted the cell phone, not before engulfing Charlie in a hug. It took a while to get use to it, but it got easier over time, and it was a whole lot better then the notepad.

Rushing out of the room, your feet carried you over to the lobby, where a certain deer demon was patiently waiting. Alastor's ear twitched when he heard the pitter patter of your feet, turning to face you with a smile. Stopping to catch your breath, you stood in front of Al and gave a small wave, causing him to chuckle. His eyes scanned your outfit and found it to be perfect for today's activities. "Excited are we, my dear?" Looking at Al, you nodded your head, smiling widely. How adorable he thought. Hooking his arm with yours, Alastor banged his microphone on the ground, causing a portal to open in front of you. "Transporting like this may be new to you, my dear! Hold on tight!" The both of you entered the portal. It felt extremely odd, but you powered through it. The portal had brought you in front of a large building, with a large neon sign reading "Mimzy's." There was a crowd of demons around the building, probably ready for the show, as Mimzy was very popular. Entering inside, your eyes were drawn to the decor. It was a lavish place, the walls were covered in burlesque posters, and string lights decorated the ceiling. It had a very spacious bar and in the center of the room was a large stage with a small band in the background. Heading over to a certain section, there was a table that read VIP. This must be for us, since Alastor was a frequent visitor at this place. Sitting down in the seat, Alastor called over a server, asking for their most popular giggle water, while turning to you and asking what you would like. Taking your phone out, you typed your answer and played it out:

"𝙹𝚞𝚜𝚝 𝚊 𝚜𝚑𝚒𝚛𝚕𝚎𝚢 𝚝𝚎𝚖𝚙𝚕𝚎 𝚙𝚕𝚎𝚊𝚜𝚎."

The server was confused at that, but just shrugged and nodded while going over to complete the order. Alastor was not fond that you had to resort to that annoying technology to speak, but he did noticed how more calm you were using it then the notepad, so he kept his opinion to himself. After the server returned with the drinks, the lights began to dim, and the crowd began to let out cheers, as the main entertainer made her way to the stage. Mimzy was a very short demon, a little chubby, but very gorgeous. Her flapper dress suit her very well, as she made her way to the center of the stage. "Good evening, Ladies and Gents! Y'all ready for tonight's performance?" Cheers and whistles were the response to that. "That's what I like to hear! Hit it boys!" The stage lights flashed, as Mimzy walked closer to the front of the stage, standing in front of the microphone, ready to amaze everyone.

(LOVE THIS SINGER, Check her out)

The performance drew to a close, and you were blown away. Her voice was amazing. Loud cheers and applause radiated throughout the whole room, as Mimzy gave a bow. Both you and Alastor clapped with the crowd as Mimzy left the stage, leaving the band there, as they played some jazz to keep the entertainment alive. Alastor turned towards you, asking if you enjoyed the show, to which you responded with an enthusiastic nod. "Why Alastor! You made it" a familiar voice, called out from behind the both of you, as you saw Mimzy walking towards the both of you. "Of course, Mimzy my dear! You do know how much I adore your performances!" Alastor smiled as he greeted Mimzy, placing a kiss on her hand. Mimzy's eyes then locked on you. Oh boy, you hoped she was friendly. "Oh My Goodness! Who is this adorable little peach?!" Oh thank Lucifer, she was a nice demon. "Ah yes! This is another acquaintance of mine! Say hello my dear!" Mimzy glanced at Al when he spoke, then turned back to you with a kind smile. "How ya doin suga~? Did my voice blow you away?" Feeling uncertain, you wondered if she was going to treat you differently if she knew you were a mute. She seemed friendly enough, plus Al said she was a good friend. Slowly you grabbed your phone and typed out what you wanted to say to Mimzy.

𝚈𝚎𝚜! 𝙸 𝚎𝚗𝚓𝚘��𝚎𝚍 𝚢𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝚙𝚎𝚛𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚗𝚌𝚎 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚢 𝚖𝚞𝚌𝚑. 𝚈𝚘𝚞 𝚑𝚊𝚟𝚎 𝚊𝚗 𝚊𝚖𝚊𝚣𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚟𝚘𝚒𝚌𝚎. 𝙸 𝚊𝚖 𝚜𝚎𝚕𝚎𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚟𝚎𝚕𝚢 𝚖𝚞𝚝𝚎, 𝚜𝚘 𝙸 𝚊𝚙𝚘𝚕𝚘𝚐𝚒𝚣𝚎 𝚒𝚏 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚏𝚒𝚗𝚍 𝚝𝚑𝚒𝚜 𝚊 𝚋𝚒𝚝 𝚘𝚍𝚍.

After the voice played, you pointed your eyes to the ground, feeling very shy. Clenching your hands under the table, you worried Mimzy was going to mock you for not speaking. "Oh my satan! Alastor, where did you find this angel? She is simply precious!" Mimzy had grabbed your cheeks, and began to squish them, like what a mother would do to a baby. "She had arrived in Hell a few months ago! She is a shy little one!" Alastor chuckled as he watched Mimzy coo at you. "No apologies needed suga~! Just happy you enjoyed the show! Here, let me give you a VIP pass so you can visit with no problems. Okay, darling?" Mimzy let go of your cheeks, and handed you the card. She had a very motherly side to her, which you liked. Grabbing the card, you nodded your head and smiled. Mimzy smiled and hugged you again. She then departed both of you as she had to meet up with some gents on the other side of the room. Both you and Alastor stayed at the club for a little bit, chatting about certain topics until you realized it had gotten late. Exiting the building, both you and Alastor decided to walk back to the hotel. Could have teleported, but the breeze was nice plus you both needed to stretch your legs after sitting for a long time. Your arm was hooked with Al's as he walked with you. Always such a gentleman. After walking for a couple of minutes, Alastor had stopped in his tracks. "My dear, may I ask you a question?" Alastor turned towards you, as he let your arm go, as he left you to stand in front of him. Staring into his eyes, you looked to see if there was any evidence of anger in them, but you found none. There was a little hint of sadness though, yet Alastor was still smiling. "I noticed during conversations with others, you always apologize! Why is that, my dear?" Tilting his head at you, he waited for your response.

Painful memories from your past began to flash in your mind once Alastor asked that question. Tears started to form, but they were blinked away. Reaching for your phone with trembling hands, you slowly wrote your answer and played it for Al.

𝙳𝚞𝚛𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎 𝙸 𝚠𝚊𝚜 𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚟𝚎, 𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚎 𝚠𝚎𝚛𝚎 𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎 𝚙𝚎𝚘𝚙𝚕𝚎 𝚠𝚑𝚘 𝚍𝚒𝚍𝚗'𝚝 𝚏𝚒𝚗𝚍 𝚖𝚢 𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚍𝚒𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝚊 𝚋𝚘𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛 𝚠𝚑𝚒𝚕𝚎 𝚘𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚜 𝚍𝚒𝚍. 𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝚘𝚗𝚎𝚜 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚍𝚎𝚝𝚎𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚍 𝚒𝚝 𝚜𝚊𝚠 𝚖𝚎 𝚊𝚜 𝚊𝚗 𝚊𝚗𝚘𝚖𝚊𝚕𝚢, 𝚊 𝚏𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚔, 𝚊 𝚠𝚎𝚒𝚛𝚍𝚘.

Tears rolled down your cheeks, as you pointed your head to the ground. Everything you felt from back then began to pour out of you, and you couldn't stop. Alastor was silent in front of you, and you figured he was upset with you, but before you could type a response, you were caught off when you felt someone wrap their arms around you. You found your head being placed in the crook of his neck, as he held you tightly. HE WAS HUGGING YOU?!? The last months while staying at the hotel, you were able to find out that Alastor didn't liked being touch. Yes, he would touch you and the others, but it mostly involved an arm hook, slight shoulder hug or head pat. You never expected that Al would be hugging you like this. After a few seconds, he began to speak. "I am truly sorry you had to suffer through that, my dear! But let me tell you this, people who mock and taunt others for being odd or a little strange are the ẗ̸̝́r̴̦̒u̵̦̅ē̴̢ ̶̰̈́s̴̱̈c̷̪͒ù̶̧m̶͇͐ ̸͎̔ò̴̦f̸͔̈́ ̶̦̃t̶͈̽h̶̟͌ȩ̴̾ ̴̯̀è̴͍a̴̞͝r̸͙̊t̸̰̕h̸̤̉! They are the true monsters! Don't believe their heinous words! To me, you are the sweetest and most unique demon in all of the seven rings! Never apologize for being the way you are ever again!" His words made you cry even more. Moving your hands slowly, you placed them on his back, tightening the hug. You felt the slight flinch from his body when you did that, but he slowly relaxed and squeezed you tighter.

The hug lasted for a bit before Al slowly released you, snapping his fingers to have a handkerchief appear in his hands, as he wiped your tears away. Once he finished, he leaned down and placed his hands on the sides of your mouth, moving them up to make it appear you were smiling. "Come on, my dear! Smile!" The smile on his face was outstretched, revealing all of his sharp teeth. His antics never ceased to make you laugh. Looking at him, you gave him a great big smile. Chuckling, Al leaned back up and grabbed your arm again, continuing his walk back to the hotel. After about a few minutes of walking, you both stopped in your tracks as an unknown voice called out to the both of you. "Well well well, if it isn't the Radio Demon."

Boyfriend!Nico Headcanons

these pics are gonna get me everytime, i fear

just some soft nico thoughts floating around in my noggin. enjoy :)

-

- boyfriend!nico coming home from morning skate and tiptoeing into your room, careful not to wake you so he can lay back down and nap with you

- boyfriend!nico waking up about an hour later to an empty bed, huffing because you didn’t wake him up, only for you to walk in the room wearing one of his t-shirts carrying two cups of coffee, a grin breaking out on his face

- boyfriend!nico suggesting you both shower together, even though he showered at the rink, simply because he loves when you wash his hair (and so he can use your products so he can smell fruity like you do)

- boyfriend! nico asking girls that approach him when he’s out with the team or on the road where they get various parts of their outfits/jewelry because he can’t stop thinking about how good you’d look in them, writing every store down in his notes app so he can take you there the next time you two go shopping

- boyfriend!nico who looks for you in the stands of every home game during warm-ups, needing to know you’re there watching before puck drop because he swears you’re his good luck charm, but also looking for any and every reason to impress you when he’s on the ice

- boyfriend!nico who buys you a custom jersey with his name and number on it, but with small four leaf clovers embroidered on each sleeve so everyone knows you’re his good luck charm, not the team’s

- boyfriend!nico who enlists jack’s help in surprising you with the golden retriever puppy you’ve been begging Nico to agree to adopting, making the poor kid drive three hours one-way to pick up the dog and then sneak the puppy into your shared apartment so Nico can keep you distracted and occupied, wanting to see your face when you open the door and the little furball comes running towards you

- boyfriend!nico who rushes through every post game interview he can because all he wants to do, win or lose, is go home and watch whatever current netflix show you’ve roped him into while eating whatever take-out you were in the mood for that night

- boyfriend!nico putting you on speaker in the locker room before games because the team overheard one of the pre-game pep talks you gave him earlier in the season, so now they all like to hear your encouraging words and how well you inspire each and every one of them to play their best (what jack refers to as your mrs. cap duties)

- boyfriend!nico who has to explain to his teammates why he can’t bring you along to every event the team has to go to because you have your own job and responsibilities, only for the team to whine and grumble about how nico hogs you and they never get to see you (just for him to facetime you halfway through the event so he can pass his phone around for everyone to say hi a few of them asking you to blink three times if nico was holding you hostage)

- boyfriend!nico who arranges for flowers and various treats to be delivered to your door every. single. day. that he’s gone during the season so you know he’s still thinking about you and he misses you, even if he only leaves for a day or two

- boyfriend!nico who listens to the playlist you’ve made for him anytime he’s traveling because he loves hearing whatever new song you’ve found that day that reminds you of him

- boyfriend!nico who begs you to take a bath with him because he’s so sore from a nasty hit earlier in the night and wants to just relax with you and your peach smelling bubble bath with one of your vanilla scented candles burning (but he’ll never admit he loves your sweet, scented candles)

- boyfriend!nico who will always trade a puck or a stick for anything that a fan brings as a gift for you, heart swelling seeing that the fans love you as much as he does

- boyfriend!nico who always wears a wrist full of friendship bracelets you make for him at warmups so he can trade them with the female fans that bring handmade bracelets for the players, so “they always feel included and welcomed at the games, despite what the grumpy old men have to say about it”

[teecupangel]

billiam bastard (squirtle), clay spawn, other desmond child, and elijah accidentally adopt a dog into their team because squirtle got attached (squirtle thinks they can speak to the dog with their fenrir "powers")

Connected to The William Miles Gets A Woman Knocked Up Grieving Desmond’s Death idea (and its minisequel and The Reader having a bad time and making it Basim’s problem) and the Statistically speaking she would be 30~40 years younger than him with a “what if Bill’s one night stand was from a big irish immigrant family?” what if idea.

Here’s hoping I got them all XD

I’m attached to making Desmond’s other child the Sage of Sigyn for the maximum family drama that would occur once Basim/Loki meets them and her quest to make Squirtle believe that she’s the best parent in the entire world so the dog adoption incident is her fault.

And it’s not one of those cute small dog.

No.

This is a large mixed breed dog that she got from god knows where, darker than the night itself.

Then she and Squirtle gave it a long bath (like… more than an hour long) and it turned out that the dog had brown fur, not black.

Elijah finally make use of his authority as the ‘unofficial’ leader of their group and ordered them to clean the entire safe house just to be safe and, for the love of god, they need to check that dog for ticks and anything hiding underneath that fur.

Elijah, for his part, went on a research bender to find out whatever was necessary about dogs because Aita’s memories are more on the ‘ancestors’ of dogs and wolves and… yeah, it helped but Elijah needed more information.

Needing to break into a veterinarian clinic multiple times in a year is added to their schedule, complete with which shots the dog needs.

He absolutely ignored Kaczmarek’s knowing look when he noticed the schedule app suddenly have certain ‘codes’ that he easily cracked as names for medicine for dogs like vaccines and such.

Elijah would stress he was simply doing this to do damage control. If he tries to stop them from adopting the dog, they’d just keep the dog behind his back and that could easily lead to complications he didn’t have time to take care of.

But he wasn’t going to defend himself in the first place.

.

Bonus points if they name the dog something ridiculous like “Kitty” or “Birdie”

Bonus bonus points if the twist is the dog was an offspring of the last mentor’s dog from the Fall comics.

Weekly tag Wednesday !!

Thank you Kat @mybrainismelted for the tag :D

Name: Dean :D

Age: 18 :)

Location: Maryland

top sheet, yes or no?: nah, don’t care, I got better blankets to use even in the summer

how many stuffed animals do you own?: a shit ton, there’s a gap between my bed and the wall so I just line them up there to fill in the space, plus they make great pillows. Some I can live without, some are dying with me. Id estimate 20 or more?

the names of your pets (and the explanations behind them): if we’re doing just my pets, starting with alive, I have a black cat named Salem we adopted in October so we tried to give her a spooky name. Her name before that was like princess starshine or something? And now to dead ones, I had a cat named sox, bc her fur pattern made it look like she was wearing socks and I thought it was cute. When I was a kid I had a white rabbit whom I named snowball for obvious reasons, before her was a rabbit named furball, don’t remember how I got to that. Other honorable mentions I would not be able to explain: Bailey (dog), mr. jingles (cat), 8 ball (dog), Roxy (dog), Shelby (dog)

favorite color: yellow, which was also my assigned color as a kid, and what people always associate with me

Any tattoos? No, but i plan on some!!

how you transport your belongings (purse, tote, hands, pockets, etc.): depends on where I’m going and what I’m doing but usually pockets, the jacket I always wear has SO many pockets and can hold so many things perfectly and easily. If I’m going out on a day trip I have a small backpack I’ll use, especially for stuff that won’t fit in my jacket pockets (water bottle, extra meds, etc)

the last movie you watched: me and my friend started the perks of being a wallflower the other week except I fell asleep 20 minutes in. Otherwise I’ve been watching psych which has movies

how long does it take you to get ready in the morning?: getting ready itself is a 10 minute affair, waking up takes an hours worth of alarms

favorite weather: anything hot, if it’s below 75F I’m cold, and I prefer it to be 85-95. It’s 91F and I had to fix the pool and I’m living my best life. I love a good summer rainstorm too

relationship status: single but there is a guy I like :)))

ice cream flavor of choice: cotton candy, cake batter, coffee, mint chocolate chip, vanilla

first fandom: Harry Potter

how many books have you read this year?: I don’t think I’ve finished a book but I’ve started some? Most were for ap lit which sucked, “the road” I hate you !! Started “the night stages” by Jane urquhart before school got in the way as it always does. Maybe once my brainrot dies down I’ll read more books.

first 4 words of your last notes app entry: it’s a drawing of me showing different cursive Cyrillic letters to explain why I’m struggling (specifically, cursive о and д )

and finally, if you had to change your URL tomorrow, what would you change it to?: I have absolutely no idea. I used to change my url to have it match whatever fandom I was into but I was moving between them a lot it got hectic so I wanted something not associated with anything. I have a supernatural backup saved, so either that or dandelions-from-Dean, or something else flower related

Tagging !!

Untiteled Aemond x reader x Osferth headcanons II

SFW and more in a modern!setting

Aemond stress bakes, the experience is the closest he'll get to meditation. The fact that he has to focus solely on the recipe, the fact that 65 gr of flour must be 65 and not 67, because your recipe will flop, is a challenge, absolutely, but helps him center his brain on something else that is not work. Plus he is a perfectionist, and baking is a matter of perfection in his head. Depending on how much stuff he bakes, you and Osferth have an idea of how much Rhaenyra, and/or Otto, and/or Aegon have stressed him.

Osferth is good with his hands. When he is stressed, he gardens. He is your to go guy if something at home doesn't work, but when he feels like his mind is unraveling, he goes to the vegetable garden and starts working hard until his back hurts and the only reason his skin hasn't peel off yet, is that you force him to put sunscreen protection 50+ on. Aemond sometimes joins him and they talk for hours while Osferth works and Aemond tries not to hurt himself with the shovel.

Both men had to put a limit to the amount of animals you are permitted to adopt. You already have cats, dogs, one donkey and Vhagar. You are still lobbying to be able to adopt a pig but Aemond is adamant and Osferth is not the enabler he used to be.

Aemond wasn't used to live with pets. Of course his family has dragons, but they lived outside, not sprawled on all the surfaces of your shared home. It had taken him a while to get used to waking up to one of the cats purring on his chest, or the dogs begging for some food from the table.

Osferth has been raised in a convent; that's the place where he had learnt to garden, fix everything at home and how to home bread liquor, which is a bit illegal but the stuff he makes doesn't get to the outside world, so it's okay.

Aemond wears a collar at home. He doesn't strictly have a d/s relationship with you and Osferth, but he likes to feel that he belongs to the two of you. When he is not at home, he wears a thin, long necklace under his shirt, with a small pendant with all three of your initials on it.

Both Aemond and Osferth are deeply private people and don't have a social media presence. You are the one who lurks every social media app. Your excuse is that you have to keep yourself updated to interact with your students, but you have a bit of addictive personality, and the act of infinite scrolling helps you when you are stressed. You are the one who keeps them updated on the newest memes and internet trends. Aemond had managed to rant for a whole night when you told him about the whole Goncharov fallout on Tumblr, while Osferth was busy scrolling and being cutely confused about the whole thing ("But why, my lady?" "It's the internet Osferth. You don't need a reason why" "Some will probably write an essay on this thing" "Is that going to be you Aemond?")

Aemond gave up a brilliant university career to help with the family business, after the death of his father. Sometimes he wakes up at night and wonders what his life might have been like if he hadn't. He still has contacts at uni and writes essays for specialised periodicals, whenever he has the time to: he doesn't want to lose his writing muscles. It is when the thought of how his live would have had turned around if he hadn't left the academic career, that he needs to be held extra tight by you and Osferth.

If Osferth has to explain his job with Uthred and the others, he says that they "solve problems". He has assured you, and then Aemond, that it is legal. The latter has a list of the best penal attorneys in the notes of his phone, just in case. Aemond has even threatened Uthred, Finan and Sithric once, when Osferth had been bought home mildly injured. He was extremely efficient at that; the fact that Vhagar was growling in the distance helped. You were present during the whole exchange, and were reminded that Aemond could be ruthless, when he needed to be and that you and Osferth were the only ones, saving Alicent and Haelaena, who have the privilege to see his softer side.

what’s up! this is my two cents since we all writing essays regarding this “n****!eren” topic. :)

1)the ppl pressed about him using nicknames like “ma” and all variations of it don’t know how to read (i’m not sorry).

from what i have seen, NO ONE is saying eren should be using aave and should be completely swapped for a black character(i.e taking on stereotypes of black men, adopting the demeanor of black men, etc). what is being said however, is that because he is a non black person in a relationship with the black reader, he is going to adopt some of her lingo or going to refer to her as the names best suited for her. same way she would him. names that the reader and eren like. most of the time it’s gonna be a variation of ma. and if you don’t like it—click out the story and find one that aligns w what you want.

2) yes, it is easy for lines to be blurred and for non-black characters to be written as if they were black, but again understand you’re reading a fic from a BLACK WRITER

writers write from experience. each fic you read will differ depending on the writer. a black writer is going to write through the lens of their experience/their culture.

here’s what i don’t really get w this whole issue. if you as a reader are not happy with what you are reading, instead of clicking off ana’s finding something else, why do you make it your mission to harass, hate, and get on the writers for THEIR decisions in regard to THEIR fics?

OR OR OR

if you are not seeing any fics that represent you, start writing your own. this is not in a rude way rather in a way to encourage ppl to not just use this app for reading and liking, but to create your own stories so that your preferences and your interests can be shown. bc you never know who might feel the same way about being left out.

3) y’all are not really pressed about this, you’re really just pissed black writers are feeling welcome/included in a space where our representation is limited.

all i say to this is a hit dog will holler. if you feel a way about this (whether it be offended or ‘called out’) ask yourself why. this whole discourse has just been an open door for A LOT of microagressions against black writers (and black ppl in general) to be shown. and it’s disgusting :)

sidenote: if black writers are saying your critiques are coming off anti black (which if you look at it through an objective lens, THEY ARE) why is your response to continue instead of stopping?

4) THESE ARE LINESSSSSS! THEY ARE COLOUR SCHEMES! THEY ARE NOT REAL!!!

before you come on here to twiddle your thumbs and type out long ass essays w 0 substance and 0 evidence of critical thinking while simultaneously flexing you lack reading comprehension, ask yourself: why the hell am i doing this?

because i can assure you, it’s not for the reasons you think.

5) for the love of everything good, find a new name instead of “niggacore” or “nigga!eren”

you lot are weird for using the n-word in association with this (idc! y’all sliding into asks w anon on saying it are not all black)

that’s my opinion. no one asked but idc, this is aggravating bc the simple solution to this problem is just exiting out the fic. ppl are gonna write for who they want, how they want, and if you don’t like it just get off their page and find something else.

y’all stay blessed and safe out here! 🫶🏼☺️

GALTx eNews: Amazon Turned Our Smile Upside Down

Amazon recently announced that on February 20th, it is ending the popular Amazon Smile program that helped raise money for nonprofits such as GALT. In response, many have asked how they can continue to support GALT. While there are no other programs quite like Amazon Smile, we have some suggestions: 

Using iGive.com for your on-line shopping works similar to Amazon Smile in that GALT receives a small percentage (they say on average 3%) of the value of your orders without increasing your costs. iGive now has 2,000 retail stores that participate including Walmart, Petco, Best Buy, Crate & Barrel, Walgreens, and Ticketmaster. Sign up and start with iGive the next time you’re shopping online!

GALT also participates in the rewards programs for Kroger and Tom Thumb. If you shop at these stores, you can turn your next trip into more than a chore by choosing GALT as your beneficiary! For Kroger's Community Rewards Program, GALT is account number 84687, and for Tom Thumb's Good Neighbor Program, we are account number 9805. Remember that for Kroger, you need to renew your selection each year to continue to benefit GALT. Both programs come with additional benefits and offers for the shopper.

When you’re active, be sure to turn on ResQWalk or Wooftrax Walk For A Dog. Both of these apps are marketed for when you’re walking a dog, but they work while you’re running, cycling, walking without a dog, shopping, or doing chores around your house. Turn them on while you are shopping at Kroger and Tom Thumb to maximize the benefit of your trip!

And this might be a blast from the past but it still works - when you’re searching the internet, use goodsearch.com as your search engine! Once you select GALT as your beneficiary by clicking the link in the blue bar at the top of the page, Goodsearch contributes a small amount to us for each search using its search engine. 

If you’re buying a pet door from Hale Pet Doors online and have adopted from GALT, let them know during the checkout process and they will donate 10% of the purchase price to GALT!

Thanks to all for your support! Please keep using Amazon Smile for your Amazon shopping until the last possible moment!

Sims In Bloom: Generation 2 Pt. 10 (Ambushed at Work by Nancy Landgraab)

Heather kept her head down and worked hard in the coming months. It was a matter of pride that she made Brindleton Pawspital a five-star destination for pets and their owners, and she had a ways to go yet. But she also dedicated herself to completing her mobile app, VetConnect, to give pet owners who couldn’t make it to Brindleton the highest quality remote veterinary care.

Once the app was published it took off, and she started generating royalties while her notability increased. But just like in high school she wasn’t a big fan of programming, and turned down offers to design more apps for other industries so she could focus on her clinic and managing the one employee she could yet afford.

Marcus Flex was a party boy who said he wanted to settle down and learn a trade. He loved animals and she was all too happy to bring him on, but his lack of dedication to work in general left plenty to be desired.

She was working late one night when Nancy Landgraab walked in, her heels clipping the tile as she found Heather in an exam room with Precious Harms. A littermate of her family’s dog, Bernadette, Precious had been adopted by former Henford grocer, Abby Goldbloom, and the old creature keeper, Hayes Harms.

Heather was yet to meet Malcolm’s mother, and she looked every bit as intimidating as she expected. She straightened her back. "I'm surprised the CEO of their parent company came by before anyone from Petcare dropped in to visit the clinic," she said, her sarcasm more than evident to clever Nancy.

She laughed with a sharpness that sounded fake. "The head of Petcare can focus on the rest of their clinics; I have a 'pet' interest in the only one owned by my son’s girlfriend."

Heather’s stomach dropped.

Nancy watched Heather work and she felt the scrutiny - especially after she had to change her scrubs when Precious got sick on her (twice!), but her years of study in her teens had paid off. Heather was a pro and could diagnose pets while keeping them calm better than many with years more experience. Abby Goldbloom Harms told Nancy she was the best vet Brindleton had seen in years while she paid her bill, but Nancy never pulled the scowl from her lips.

"I'm having a dinner party at the penthouse and you'll be there. Malcolm insisted."

"Uh- okay...Should I bring something?"

"Like what? Dog treats?" She laughed at her own snide joke, her eyes travelling the length of Heather in her scrubs with a judgmental glare. "We have chefs. Just bring yourself."

Nancy was extending an order more than an invitation, and Heather started fretting her planned evening with the Landgraabs almost immediately. ->

I wasn't able to draw since I'm on ✨Summer Holidays✨ so have some old brainrot about my kitties 😌

From the top!!

Silent'Chaser - Born outside of the clan, at first was a loner after her mother died shortly after she was old enough to live on her own. Lived closely on territories of Clan of Shining moon, in an old fox den that was decorated with herbs, and animal furs. Silent was a cat with a gift of prophecy, and a strong one at that, as those often hurt her so much she passed out. One day meet Illuminated paw who at first talked with her just because he was bored but later just because he wanted to, because he liked her. After maybe a moon of meetings, illuminated was found with her, by Frog'Paw (His ex-crush) his mentor, Hawk'Flight and his best friend, Sunny'Paw. Silent was offered to join the clan, which she did, for Illuminated. Thanks to her abilities she was able to finish her training along with Illuminated'Path, Sunny'Leap, Clover'Flame, Sky'Stone and Frog'Hop.

Illuminated path - Born outside of the clan, yet adopted by a Dame known back then as Maple'Wing, making him siblings with Night'Venegance. Born with gift of light, allowing him to clearly see in the dark, yes dsrk'vision 100%. Even his adopted mother didn't last too long, as she also left the clan, rather happily if I say so. Most of his kithood was spent playing with frog and night. After his app ceremony he and Frog'Paw started to get close, which unfortunately or not, didn't last too long as silent came into the image. At first only his fix for boredom later became his lovely mate. During battle against Mouse'Moon confessed to Silent'Chaser before their presumed "Death". They are living their happily ever afters 😌

Maple - originally from clan of rising sun, sister to Dark'Rise (tail) born with a rather weird ability where she could freely see, talk with and feel star clan cats. During her apprenticeship was caught by a wild gang of dogs led by a rather unfriendly dog named Seshi. Maple'Paw stayed with them for quite a long time, as no one seemed to look for her, when she was found she had a broken back leg. Along with a funny and rather nice two dogs from the bottom of the chain, named Nala and Nyx, she managed to befriend the dogs and even become one of them, fluently speaking both dog and cat language. Maple'Paw became the healer of the dogs, as the starclan allowed her to help them. One unfortunate night Seshi was shot by a two leg, Maple managed to only take out a bullet but tame the blood loss.

When maple was around 20 moons old, she left the pack for a short while, where she found a mate for herself, called Grey'Storm. After she had his kits though, she left again, finding a very lost and cute Molly named sage, whom she took to the pack, as her new mate.

Sage - kit born during the last generation of the lost tribe called Tribe of hunting hawk. Her father was the leader of the clan, yet, he still was weak. During a fire in the nearby forest, he took her and ran away, outside of the mountains. He took care of her for months in one of the caves, before he finally died, loving her to wander the close by forest alone. Untill she met maple.

Grey storm - I don't have much to say about him other then the fact that he was a good father, and I'm glad Night and Illuminated had him.

Night venegance - also had the same gift as her mother, and also lost it because of a prophecy. Was pretty naive, and never noticed the abuse her mate had on her kits untill it was too late. Still mad at whisper for leaving the clan and mating with a "savage" but she still loves her, and loves her grandchildren. Was born without powers, just like her father, other them the ghost seeing stuff

Grey whisker - Mmmmm...Manipulative old fuck, how fun. At first was supposed to be much older then night but the difference made me quite uncomfy so he's just a manipultor now. Tried to sell his children (Only whisper and Gildia(back then doe)) to the cult hes working for, as a way to redeem himself. Only manipulated his children worse and didn't manage to redeem herself. How fun. After Night caught on, he was thrown away from the clan and is on the lowest position in the cult. Also has no powers.

Gildia - My favourite murder champion 😌 after being thrown away by her father, she was found by an unknown tom who called himself Flame'wind and trained to be a murder machine to stop the clans. Her power exists actually, and it allows her to gain keen her senses after tasting blood, the more she tastes the stronger she gates, but also gets weaker faster and has to rest for a longer period of time. So she doesn't really use it. Surprise or not, she killed her mentor and then Dream'Catcher! Leader of the cult of stars! Oh she found them! And gave them a home. Gildia soon became quite peculiar, becoming her second on command, and destroying life of her father, who now was stuck under her command.

Alex - also my beloved 😌 born from illegal couple she was living her life in clan of the Rising Sun, and because her power, aka electricity generation, was quite a powerful one she was often sent as a first meat to destroy everyone. After one uneventful evening she met gildia, they started to talk, and soon? She ran away. Joined the cult as Gildia's pair, and finally felt what life was. Oh how cute 🥰.

That's all for now

✮ Max Ambition ✮

It's a new day and Brielle has gotten promoted again! She’s level 5 and has chosen the most lucrative career branch.

She's decided to call a club meeting to celebrate, secure votes and up her charisma because she's ambitious to the MAX!!

Alejandro: “And that’s why Bjorn is the worst and should never have led this club in the first place. He's a walking, talking piece of garbage.”

Brielle: “Could you repeat all that for the new club members I just added? Oh yay, I completed my aspiration!”

Brielle: "So despite being highly accomplished and getting promoted every two days, I lost passion for my job."

Alejandro: “Maybe you’re just too good and need a break from being so awesome all the time? We could go on a honeymoon?”

Brielle: “Oh good idea!"

Jacques: “Sorry Brielle, I just doubt you’ll find my wife who I kil- who mysteriously disappeared.”

Victor: “And that you’ll adopt my dogs.”

Brielle: “Guys, come on! How else can I convince you to support my cause? Those were some highly personalised empty promises!”

Summer: “Yes, I will support you.”

Brielle: “Great!”

Summer: “So when will I meet this single, gorgeous, billionaire cousin of yours, who’s dying to date me because I'm supporting you?"

Brielle: “Hmm, not sure. Buy me a new oven and I'll ask them."

Victor: “I remember this club under the vile leadership of Bjorn. All we did was play games. Now what we do truly matters; maintaining the home of our glorious leader and getting 13-20 hours of sleep a day!”

Brielle: *obliviously reading* "Just hide the diplomat's body Ira!"

Brielle: "Thank you... Now I'm handing my title to Alejandro, so he can complete his aspiration which was the same as mine."

Alejandro asks the club members about Brielle’s leadership. All agree she’s the best sim for the job. They love cleaning and repairing her stuff it seems.

Brielle: "Thank you... Now I'm handing my title to Alejandro, so he can complete his aspiration which was the same as mine."
