Something Real

Chapter 2 - The Omega

Summary: When John got the mission assigned to him to retrieve an important item, he didn’t think nothing of it. With hardly any information presented to them, they were in the dark. But, what they found shocked them. Why didn’t they know about this facility? Maybe they didn’t want to know.

Parings: Poly 141 x OC (Louis Belmont)

Warnings: Alpha/Beta/Omega dynamics, Alternate Universe, I’m not an expert on military so there will be inaccuracies, panicking from Louis.

Author’s note: You guys have no idea how bad I want to do daily updates lol. But I have to force myself to do weekly updates so I won’t become burnt out. I have so many ideas for this story it’s not even funny. I want to just write little head cannons but don’t want to really spoil anything.

Previous Chapter —> Next Chapter

“So we have no idea what we’re supposed to retrieve?” It was quiet in the office as John Price sat at his desk. Laswell was on the other line, a small exhausted sigh came from her. It seemed like the higher ups were running her ragged as well.

“Not really. All they told us was that the item could either be extremely dangerous or not. Look Price, I don’t even know if the ‘item’ they’re talking about is even real. But if the higher ups want it, then it must be extremely important.”

John leaned back in his chair, it creaked softly under his weight, and let out a sigh of his own. He reached up to pinch the bridge of his nose, feeling a headache start to form behind his eyes. He’s been up for three days straight now dealing with paper work and the higher ups. He hasn’t even had the time to even take a quick nap.

“Right. This is exactly what I wanted. To go blind in a mission.”

It was eerily quiet as Ghost and Soap moved through the building, checking their corners and staying close together. When they touched down in Old Washington, there wasn’t any surprise to how old and rundown the city was. It was abandoned since the Omega War 33 years ago. No one but the desperate stayed here. So, when they finally managed to find the building they were looking for, surprise washed over them.

It was a hospital but the deeper they went underground, the more the hospital…didn’t look like a hospital. “What the hell is this place?” Soap muttered softly, his voice echoing lightly.

“No idea. But keep talking to a minimum. Dont know what’s here.” Ghost’s baritone voice doesn’t echo as much because of his mask but it didn’t make it less eerie. The walls were cracked and some had fallen in, the building creaked and groaned. They had to make this quick, but there was no way of knowing what the hell they were looking for.

But whatever this place was, it didn’t look like a basement to store things. As they passed by a few rooms, shining their lights in, they saw skeletons on the floor wearing lab coats. There looked like some medical equipment but looked more sinister than normal equipment. Soap felt a shiver move down his spine at the thought of what they did here. *Why are there so many skeletons? How many people died here?* he thought as a bead of sweat rolled down his temple.

It took them longer than they thought to make it to the last door. The door was different than the others. As the regular doors were made of wood and were small, this door was massive and metal. But, it was slightly ajar. The sign above it read ‘Cryo Chambers’

“Didn’t they say the item could be dangerous?” Soap spoke as Ghost glanced over at him and let his gun fall to his side. “Yeah, be ready for anything.” He muttered as he grabbed the edge of the door and with a grunt, began pulling it open. It was heavy even with Ghost being strong, it was still hard to open. But he managed to get it open enough to the point they could slip in. He grabbed his gun once more and stepped in.

Inside the large room it should have been dark, but it was dimly lit by the cryo pods that lined the walls. Some of them were off while others were on. But it looked like a lot of the people inside were dead. Soap and Ghost slowly moved down the middle, shock moving through their bodies. *What the hell were they doing down here?* was the thoughts that went through their minds.

Soap swallowed thickly as he saw that the people in the pods looked…odd. They were bigger than most but some had horns while others looked like they had wings. *Experiments? They were experimenting on people?* Soap felt anger move through his body but glanced over as he felt Ghost bump his side. The Alpha also looked angry, he could see it in his eyes. But there was nothing they could do.

At the end of the room was a larger cryo pod that was brightly lit. The small screen on the pod had the vitals of the person inside. The heart monitor was still moving and there was a green light on the screen. That had to be a good thing right? Ghost reached up and wiped some of the condensation off the glass. Inside of the pod lay a man with deep red dreadlocks that almost looked like blood in the light of the pod. His locs were loose, lying down over his shoulders and seemed to stop below his chest. His skin which looked to be umber had a dark-yellow tone to it which paired nicely with his hair. What caught Ghost’s attention the most was the black and silver gas mask that sat on his face. It didn’t cover his entire face just the bottom half of his face.

The life monitor also had the name of this person. Ghost looked at the monitor, reading the name: Louis Belmont. Then shock washed over him as he stared at the status below the name. Omega.

*An Omega? An honest to God Omega? Here?* he thought and looked over at Soap who was looking at the pod in anger and shock. “A fucking Omega? What the hell is this place?” The brunette breathed out and Ghost stepped back.

“I guess we’ll find out from him.” He looked around the pod for a handle or something to open it. It took a few tries but they finally managed to get it open and they quickly stepped back at the pod began to open.

Ghost watched as the omega’s eyes fluttered open, he was once again shocked and surprised as the whites of his eyes were black and his eyes were an extremely beautiful gold. The color looked like molten gold and was actually…glowing.

“Holy shit, L.T, you see what I’m seein’? ” Soap breathed out as the Omega’s body leaned forward and they were ready to catch it but they froze as his body turned into smoke, falling to the ground only to turn right back into a solid body. Soap breathed in sharply, both tensing up and not knowing what to do. Until the redhead took off his gas mask and took a deep breath only to start coughing. It was the type of cough that shook his whole body, making him hunch over in pain.

Soap moved first, moving over to the omega and placed his hand on the man’s back. He rubbed his hand slowly, trying to calm the man’s coughing down and once he finally stopped, he placed the mask back on.

Louis seemed to be processing what was going on as he slowly lifted his head and looked at Ghost. “Can you stand?” Ghost asked, silently cursing. Of course he can’t stand, he looked like he barely knew where he was.

“What…year is it?”

The man’s voice was scratchy, like he hadn’t used it for a long time. The labored breathing of the gas mask didn’t help either.

“3055.” Soap spoke up, still beside Louis and the omega’s eyes went wide from shock and disbelief.

“33 years? I’ve been in there for…33 years?” It sounded like all the air had left his lungs as he stared at Ghost in shock then down at the floor.

Ghost felt the urge to console him, make him feel better but he refrained from doing so.

“Soap, pick him up. We need to go.” Ghost watched as the beta nodded his head and fixed his gun before reaching down and picked up the man. The redhead had on black pants and a black muscle shirt that showed off his muscles.

“We have the target, Captain.” Ghost reported to Price, not wanting to say more until they got back to a safe place. Gaz nor Price will believe him until they bring the Omega in.

Pain. Pain. Pain. painpainpain. It hurts! It hurts! It hurts! Golden eyes shot open, Louis breathed in sharply as the pain seemed to intensify as he was now fully awake. His eyes frantically darted around at the figures above him, darkened out by the blindingly bright light above him. His heart was beating so hard he thought it would burst out of his chest. *No! Not again! Not this again!* Panic gripped his brain tightly and his breathing picked up speed, but his eyes locked onto the figure who was speaking.

"How is Louis behaving?" The voce was feminine as she was handed something, a clipboard.

Louis could hear the light fluttering of paper as she lifted the page to look at something. That's right, he was here again. The tests, the pain. It never seemed to end. It was like a loop of pain that got worse and worse over time. The Omega swallowed thickly, painfully. His mouth felt like it was stuffed with cotton, he couldn't swallow and it was hard to speak. "W-where...am I?" He managed to get out, his mind foggy. He had a vague recollection on where he was, but couldn't put anything together.

The pain was excruciating as he laid on that table, pain shooting through his body. He could feel IV's were in his arm, but he didn't know how many there were or what they were pumping into him. Louis's body twitched as jolts of pain shot through him and he gasped sharply, suddenly arching his back. Tears pooled in his eyes then rolled down his cheeks, he could hear himself sobbing, begging for the pain to stop.

He wished he could see the people above him, see their faces to memorize them. Louis wanted them to pay for making him hurt. Pain...pain...it hurts so much.

"He's doing surprisingly well with the chemicals in his body. It hasn't killed him yet." The voice sounded excited. It made him sick. "B-bastards." He croaked out and through his blurry vision, he could see their heads tilt down towards him.

"I'm surprised he can even speak. The pain must be excruciating. Fascinating." One of the figures reached out to wipe the tears from his sweaty face, he flinched at the touch, trying to focus on the person. But it was too hard to focus on anything, his head throbbed and it felt like he had ran a 10 mile marathon with no break.

"Hush now, child. This is for a good cause." Someone moved beside him and he let out a weak cry of protest as something sharp pricked his skin. A needle.

Louis felt his head become heavy and he let it roll to the side and looked at the person beside him. A woman, by the way she smelled. It was still hard to see and with his vision becoming more blurry by the second, he didn't try and focus anymore. "Go to sleep, Louis. The pain will subside." The voice was unnervingly calm, it made him shudder with discomfort. But his eyes started to grow heavy and the sounds around him grew slow and mixed together. He fought to keep his eyes open, but soon the blackness took him and he fell into a deep sleep.

Louis's eyes suddenly shot open and he quickly sat up, not hearing the surprised gasp from the nurse in the room. He was shaking from terror, trying to not have a panic attack. But it was hard, he was out of the cryo pod, was he back under testing? The Omega's eyes quickly locked onto a nurse who was standing a little away's from the bed. She looked like she was giving him space but his terror filled brain was telling him the opposite.

A scream of surprise was heard from his room as he slammed his shoulder into the door, slamming it open. He stumbled forward, falling into the wall. His eyes darted around the few hospital staff that roamed the halls. They were now frozen in shock and he narrowed his eyes at the military uniforms that some of them had on. His breathing became labored as he now realized he didn't have his gas mask, but when one of the staff moved forward, he growled loudly and stepped back. "Woah, calm down. No one here is going to- Wait!!"

Louis didn't give him a chance to continue as he turned and began running the opposite way. The alarms started going off as he ran down the hall, roughly pushing people out of the way. He dodged those who were trying to catch him. All the while he felt like his lungs were on fire, he felt and tasted blood on his lips, knowing his body was healing and decaying at a rapid rate. But he didn't care. If he was here, then they were going to do experiments on him again. He couldn't go through that again. Never again.

"There he is!" Louis panted hard as he skidded around the corner, slamming into the wall before running again. He could feel his body shifting into his shadow form, quickly shadow stepping further away from everyone. But his body couldn't keep up with him, not with him still recovering. So, his own body forced him back in his solid state and he let out a surprised yelp as he stumbled and fell to the ground. He rolled to a stop, his back hitting the wall and he struggled to get up, feeling his arms shaking as he slowly crawled to a corner.

"There you are." A masculine voice came from behind Louis and with the last of his energy, he quickly turned around, moving into a crouched position and growled loudly, snarling at the man in front of him. Or should he say men. There were now four men in front of him, although, the one who spoke looked and sounded familiar. *A mohawk?* Louis thought, growling again as the mohawk man stepped closer.

"Stay back!" Louis yelled but suddenly began coughing hard. He wanted to keep his eyes on the man but couldn't, covering his mouth as blood seeped through his fingers. "Shit..." A baritone voice caught his attention but he couldn't really look as he was literally coughing up a piece of his lung.

Louis noticed it went quiet, the alarms weren't blaring and no one was speaking.

"Y-you're...not taking me back." His breathing was labored as he finished coughing, flicking the chunk of lung off of his hand. He felt his lungs regenerating and he watched the men, faintly picking up their scents. But it was mostly drowned out by the strong scent of his blood.

"We're not taking you back, wee yin. Promise. We're just here to help" The one with the mohawk spoke again and Louis now recognized the man. He was the one who carried him out. And...Louis quickly looked over and locked eyes with the large one in the ghost mask.

"Names." Louis didn't relax but he at least remembered the two men who were there. The other two, a very pretty man with chocolate brown eyes and a equally handsome man with beautiful blue eyes and a mustache, he did not recognize.

"Soap. The one with the skull mask is Ghost. Kyle is the pretty one. And the one with the mustache is Price." Soap quickly listed their names and Louis locked eyes with all of them before looking back at Soap.

"What now?" He breathed out as he could feel his body slowly shutting down, wanting to sleep again. But he fought the feeling.

"We get you back in bed so you can rest." Price spoke but kept his distance and Louis looked at him with suspicion.

"That's it?"

"That's it."

Louis kept eye contact with him, making sure he wasn't lying and when he felt satisfied, he went to stand but his legs gave out under him and he saw the ground getting closer. He closed his eyes, waiting for the pain, but it never came. Instead, he landed against a warm chest and into strong arms. His face landed against Soap's shoulder and Louis couldn't help but to breath in his scent. The almondy scent of a beta invaded his nose, making him calm down, becoming like putty in Soap's arms. But then his natural scent came through, he smelled like watered down aftershave and coffee. Warm...so warm.

Louis let out a deep sigh as he was picked up bridal style, held close to that warm chest. "You're safe now, bonny. Rest." Louis let his his body relax and he felt himself grow heavy before once again slipping off into a deep sleep.

This was one long chapter. Phew!! I hope you guys enjoyed that! If you have any questions feel free to ask away!

LRB

Dude I got my first corporate review the other day after like... a year of working as an intern & a few months of fulltime & my boss said I'm good at working as part of a team & productive beyond the bare minimum & doing above-expected-quality shit and I Litcherally Could Not Believe It. Like the ADHD or the Whatever Undxed Stuff is so bad I feel like I spend more time spacing out than actually working. On my work from home days I spend half the time w/ food prep or naps & the naps only happen bc I'm so exhausted I'd just be falling asleep in my chair. Which has also happened at the office a couple times. I was SURE I'd get roasted for productivity or communication issues but apparently I'm doing 92.8% fine? Communication was the one thing brought up bc I do lurk in groupchat a lot (it's a small team of 6 so most coordination happens in whatsapp but most of it is abt events which I 99.9% of the time have nothing 2 do with so I get overwhelmed and shut off notifs for 1hr sometimes. And there's a lot of emails that are also 99% of the time not actionable 4 me so I also have trouble staying on top of those).

But uhhh yeah I'm apparently Decent At My Corpojob??????? Who'dathunkit

Like I was Terrified of screwing up bc I'd never had a stable proper Job before this. I was completely convinced I didn't have the CV to land one let alone the stamina to keep it and like. I wouldn't be able to cope with a Normal 9-to-5 like if I had to come into the office daily I prolly wouldn't make it. But because of COVID they switched to hybrid model & they don't mind me going radio silent for longass stretches of time as long as I come up w/ deliverables. And one woman who started a few months after me came up with a system to log all the graphics I need to make that lets me reference all the info in a single doc w/o going back & forth via email w/ anyone like at the start which has been a Fucking Godsend.

So????

And the pay covers most of my partner and I's expenses. Like we're still not ready to rent a non-humid non-Recluse-infested non-isolated place near or in downtown but. It doesn't seem completely out of reach in a few years anymore since I got this thing solidified & they started working again (gig style but with a base salary? So there's a low fixed income w higher bursts we can use for buying key shit like uhhh our first Vehicle even if it's scary & two-wheeled 4 now. I'm also campaigning for one of those air fryer / rice maker / pressure cooker combo insane machine things to compensate our notorious lack of oven)

Unlocking Excellence: Exploring the School with Best Infrastructure in Bhopal

The learning environment plays a powerful role in a child’s academic success and emotional growth. A well-designed, modern campus fosters curiosity, boosts confidence, and provides safety. For parents in Bhopal, the search for a school with best infrastructure is not about appearance—it’s about access to a setting that supports academic performance, creativity, and all-round development.

With Bhopal’s rapid educational expansion, more institutions are investing in smart infrastructure. From digital classrooms to science labs, sports arenas to reading corners—today’s schools offer much more than traditional teaching spaces. But what defines the "best" when it comes to school infrastructure? Let’s dive deeper.

Why Infrastructure Matters in School Education

A school’s infrastructure reflects its commitment to providing a holistic educational experience. Physical space directly impacts student motivation, concentration, and well-being. It also supports teachers in delivering dynamic lessons and helps parents feel confident in their school choice.

Core benefits of great infrastructure:

Increases student engagement and performance

Supports hands-on, experiential learning

Enhances physical, emotional, and creative growth

Promotes a healthy and safe environment

Encourages collaboration and teamwork

The school with best infrastructure provides more than buildings—it offers a space where learning becomes a joyful journey.

Must-Have Features in the School with Best Infrastructure

A top-quality school campus goes beyond minimum standards. It creates spaces that inspire, protect, and nurture students from pre-primary to senior classes.

1. Smart Classrooms

Digital boards, interactive content, and multimedia tools help students learn better through visualization and interaction. These tools also assist teachers in simplifying complex concepts.

2. Well-Equipped Labs

Science, math, and computer labs support practical learning. Exposure to hands-on experiments builds analytical and problem-solving skills.

3. Libraries and Reading Zones

Quiet, comfortable reading corners with a wide range of books encourage literacy. Modern libraries include digital access, story zones, and guided reading programs.

4. Sports and Physical Activity Areas

Fields, courts, yoga zones, and indoor sports facilities contribute to physical fitness and team-building. Regular sports events help students develop discipline and resilience.

5. Performing Arts Spaces

Rooms for dance, music, and theatre allow students to express themselves creatively and build confidence.

6. Safety and Hygiene

CCTV coverage, sanitized washrooms, filtered water, trained medical staff, and secure entry-exit systems are essential for peace of mind.

Schools recognized among the top 10 CBSE schools in Bhopal consistently invest in such infrastructure to ensure student success.

From Foundation to Future: Infrastructure for Every Stage

A great school caters to every stage of learning, from toddlers to teenagers. The best pre primary school in Bhopal features infrastructure designed for younger children’s needs—bright colors, soft surfaces, child-sized furniture, and sensory play areas.

Facilities in pre-primary infrastructure:

Activity rooms with building blocks, puzzles, and toys

Outdoor play zones with slides, swings, and sandpits

Indoor spaces for music, painting, and storytelling

Nap areas for rest and relaxation

Visual boards for daily schedules and learning routines

Many such schools also double up as the best preschool in Bhopal, ensuring that children begin their journey in a joyful, well-equipped space.

The Power of Space in Academic Results

Physical environment contributes to mental focus. Students in well-designed classrooms perform better academically. This is evident in institutions known for the best CBSE results in Neelbad. Their infrastructure allows teachers to personalize learning, group students effectively, and use varied teaching tools.

How infrastructure boosts academic performance:

Better lighting and ventilation improve focus

Comfortable seating reduces fatigue

Organized classrooms encourage discipline

Access to projectors and digital tools supports visual learners

Lab equipment brings concepts to life

Schools that deliver consistent results know that the right learning space is a powerful ally in student success.

Location and Accessibility: Looking for a CBSE School in Bhopal Near Me

Parents often begin their search with the phrase "cbse school in bhopal near me." Proximity is practical. A school close to home means less travel time, better punctuality, and more time for rest or co-curriculars.

Modern CBSE schools located in prime and upcoming areas like Neelbad and Kolar Road offer top-notch infrastructure along with easy accessibility.

Key accessibility factors to consider:

Availability of GPS-enabled transport

Pickup-drop coordination

Safe walking routes

Fast connectivity via main roads

Proximity to healthcare facilities

Choosing a nearby school that also ranks high on facilities offers long-term convenience for both students and parents.

Neelbad: The Rising Hub for Value-Based Education

Neelbad has emerged as a destination for quality education in Bhopal. With clean surroundings and modern campuses, schools here are balancing excellence with affordability. Several institutions are celebrated as the best school in Neelbad with low fees, offering rich infrastructure at accessible costs.

Why parents are choosing Neelbad:

Calm and green location

Spacious campuses with fresh air and natural light

Value-based learning environments

Long-term affordability without compromise on quality

Positive academic track records

Schools in this area are redefining what it means to be both cost-effective and comprehensive in approach.

Integration of Infrastructure in CBSE Curriculum

The CBSE curriculum encourages active learning and conceptual understanding. Schools that align their infrastructure with this vision enable better execution of the curriculum.

A great CBSE school in Bhopal uses:

Digital classrooms to explain abstract topics

Labs for hands-on science and mathematics experiments

Activity zones for environmental and cultural studies

Open grounds for health and physical education

Technology integration for coding and AI basics

This practical learning setup boosts retention and helps students relate their classroom knowledge to real-life situations.

Private Schools and Infrastructure Leadership

In the educational landscape, private institutions often lead in design, innovation, and upgrades. The best private school in Bhopal typically features a well-planned layout with safety, accessibility, and creativity at its core.

Private school infrastructure highlights:

Multi-purpose halls for events and assemblies

Language and audio-visual labs

Smart libraries with reading programs

Cafeterias with nutritious food

Secure school apps for parent-teacher communication

By focusing on both academics and comfort, private schools are shaping students who are confident, curious, and collaborative.

Infrastructure in the Context of Emotional Development

Beyond academics, infrastructure affects how students feel. Open spaces help children feel relaxed. Quiet rooms allow reflection. Structured layouts teach order and discipline. Colorful, creative zones foster imagination.

A well-designed school with best infrastructure ensures emotional balance by providing:

Rest zones for younger kids

Counseling rooms for guidance

Calm spaces for mindfulness and art therapy

Classrooms with natural light and air

Group seating to encourage friendships

Emotionally secure students participate more, express better, and form stronger relationships with peers and teachers.

Parental Perception: What Families Look for Today

Modern parents are more aware of how surroundings impact learning. During school visits, they evaluate not just academics, but also cleanliness, classroom design, and creative corners.

Key features parents notice:

Clean floors and furniture

Wall displays showing student work

Accessible washrooms with child-sized fittings

Playground safety features

Friendly, welcoming staff

Real-time communication via apps or notices

When a school meets both physical and emotional needs, it earns long-term trust.

Recognition and Rankings: Connecting Infrastructure with Reputation

Schools that invest in infrastructure often earn recognition. Institutions ranking among the top 10 CBSE schools in Bhopal typically showcase excellent academic, cultural, and physical learning spaces.

Factors influencing top rankings:

Campus size and resource availability

Safety and security protocols

Feedback from parents and students

Quality of labs, libraries, and sports zones

Support for physical, emotional, and academic growth

Such schools create a reputation that attracts both students and educators seeking excellence.

Final Thoughts: Infrastructure Is the Silent Teacher

A great school does more than teach subjects. It provides an environment where students feel inspired, supported, and capable. The school with best infrastructure combines function with vision—offering a setting that speaks to both heart and mind.

Whether you're looking for a cbse school in bhopal, exploring options near your home with a “cbse school in bhopal near me” search, or considering the best private school in Bhopal, infrastructure remains a deciding factor.

Many institutions with the best CBSE results in Neelbad, or recognized as the best school in Neelbad with low fees, owe their success to how they use space to shape learning.

In the end, the classroom may be where lessons begin, but the campus is where students truly grow.

The British Pound Canadian Dollar Contraction Phase Playbook: Unearthing Hidden Gems in a Tight Market Why Tight Ranges Can Unlock Big Moves (If You Know Where to Look) Ever watched paint dry while staring at your British Pound Canadian Dollar (GBP/CAD) chart during a contraction phase? It feels like waiting for your food delivery, and the driver is stuck in traffic, two streets away, for an hour. You keep refreshing, but nothing moves. Frustrating, right? But here's the twist: That tight-range, sideways shuffle is not dead time—it's a trader's goldmine in disguise. Most traders miss this. They glance away, sigh, and chase another flashy pair. Big mistake. Smart money? They are setting traps while sipping coffee. Let me pull back the curtain on what really happens during the GBP/CAD contraction phase and how you can profit when others yawn and miss the setup. The Invisible Blueprint: What the GBP/CAD Contraction Phase Really Signals Contraction phases are more than mere market naps. They signal accumulation, energy build-up, and whale-sized players loading their artillery. The British Pound Canadian Dollar pair is notorious for these phases before explosive moves. Key Signs You're in a GBP/CAD Contraction Phase: - Volatility Vanishes: The daily range tightens below the 20-day average range. - Lower Highs + Higher Lows: Price coils into a wedge like a spring. - Volume Drops: Market participants step back—but smart money is positioning. Why This Matters: According to a 2023 Bank of International Settlements (BIS) report, over 90% of major breakout moves stem from contraction patterns. The GBP/CAD pair, driven by both oil price volatility (Canada) and Bank of England policy swings, is a classic example. The Hidden Move: What Smart Money Does (That You Don’t See) Institutions adore the GBP/CAD contraction phase. Why? They need liquidity to enter huge positions without spiking the price prematurely. Here’s Their Playbook: - Step 1: Fake Moves. They push the price slightly above resistance, then crash it down to grab stop losses. - Step 2: Induce Despair. Sideways drift resumes. Retail traders give up. - Step 3: Launch. When retail traders least expect it, price explodes 150-300 pips. Example: In March 2024, GBP/CAD consolidated within a 50-pip range for two weeks. A false breakout on March 15 triggered stops, followed by a 320-pip surge within 48 hours. The Ninja Entry: How to Get in Before the Crowd Catching the move before it rockets is the game-changer. Here’s how the pros enter: - Anchor Bar Observation: Identify a large candle within the contraction phase. Smart money often hides entries there. - Liquidity Sweep Levels: Mark zones slightly above resistance or below support. These are fakeout targets. - Inside Bar Confirmation: When price revisits the anchor bar low, look for an inside bar or pin bar on the 1H chart. Entry Trigger: - Buy when price reclaims the fakeout zone. - Place a stop loss 15 pips below the contraction low. - Target 3R minimum (Risk-to-Reward). Pro Tip: Overlay the Average True Range (ATR) indicator. A sudden ATR spike above the 14-day average often marks the beginning of the breakout. Why Most Traders Blow It (And How You Can Flip the Script) Mistake #1: Jumping Too Early The classic rookie move: entering on the first tick beyond resistance. Cue the fake breakout. Cue regret. Fix: Wait for the liquidity grab. Let the market lure others into the trap first. Mistake #2: Ignoring Oil Correlation The GBP/CAD pair dances to oil prices because the Canadian dollar is a petrocurrency. If oil is pumping, CAD gains strength. Many traders overlook this. Fix: Watch WTI Crude Oil Futures. When oil is rallying, contraction breakouts in GBP/CAD often favor CAD strength. The Whispered Secret: Hidden Divergences That Forecast GBP/CAD Explosions Most traders check RSI divergences. You can do better. Use the Smart Divergence Combo: - MACD Histogram Divergence: Look for declining momentum during the contraction phase. - Volume Spread Analysis (VSA): Spot unusual volume spikes without price movement. This often means accumulation by institutions. When these align, the breakout is usually 1.5x more aggressive. Insider Tactics You Won't Find on YouTube 1. Order Flow Clues: Watch GBP/CAD futures (ICE exchange). If the order book shows large limit buy orders near support during contraction, institutions are loading up. 2. Sentiment Disparity: Check retail sentiment via platforms like IG Client Sentiment. When 80% of retail traders are long during contraction, expect a downward breakout. 3. The Currency Heatmap Trick: Use a heatmap to compare GBP and CAD strength against other currencies. If GBP is weak across the board, contraction breakouts favor CAD. Turn Knowledge Into Profits: Your Action Plan for GBP/CAD Contraction Phases - Identify the Phase: Spot low volatility, wedge patterns, and volume drops. - Anchor Bar + Liquidity Zones: Mark key levels based on institutional footprints. - Track Oil and Sentiment: Align GBP/CAD breakout bias with oil trends and retail positioning. - Execute with Precision: Use ATR spikes and VSA confirmation for sniper entries. Your Edge Starts Here: Don’t Miss Out Want to master these setups with real-time insights? - Get the latest economic indicators and GBP/CAD news here. - Access free advanced trading courses tailored for contraction setups here. - Join our elite trading community for daily breakout alerts and smart money analysis here. Key Takeaways for GBP/CAD Contraction Success: - Spot contraction patterns early (low volatility, wedge formations). - Use oil trends and retail sentiment as breakout filters. - Employ liquidity sweep entries; avoid the first fakeout. - Watch for VSA volume surges and ATR spikes for confirmation. —————– Image Credits: Cover image at the top is AI-generated Read the full article

On the time and space goop-

I'm losing track of time and day of the week very easily. That's what happens when it gets bad. Im not sure what *it* is, but it's starting.

Yesterday, I couldn't remember what day it was (Tuesday) multiple times, each time taking about 10 seconds for it to come to me. Yesterday at work, when I was trying to recall my previous shift, I was remembering it as days ago. It one day prior, on Monday. Today I kept thinking it was Thursday and that tomorrow is my 9am class. It's Wednesday and tomorrow is my 8am class. Glad i caught that or I would've missed class :/

I'm losing track of time easily. Feels like it's going faster than it should. I know that mindless scrolling will do that, but I've cut down on it. It's sometimes to the point that I'm genuinely in disbelief when i look at the time. Like, "how could that happen, it was 2 pm, i made and ate a snack and now it's 5 pm??". Hours of my leisure time feels like minutes, and minutes of my working time feels like hours. When i'm trying to do work, time feels slow and my body feel twitchy and restless and itchy not under my skin but like, in my soul and like, in my brain meat. Like I want to open my head and scratch my brain.

I think I need to sleep more but that feels impossible with my early classes. I suspect my body needs 9-10 hours because that's about how long i sleep with no alarm, and when I sleep 8 hours I'm still tired. To get 10 hours off sleep and still have time to get ready in the morning, I'd have to go to bed at around 8pm every night. 3/5 weeknights I don't even get home until like after 6. If I cook and eat dinner that's at bare minimum an hour. Then I only have one hour left to do homework? Not to mention any house work, skincare, getting ready for bed? What am I supposed to do??

I suppose I could supplement with daily naps, but low-key I hate naps and it takes so much time for me to fall asleep and maybe even longer to go from waking up to a productive state.

Used to fucking hate naps as a small child. Not sure why, but I apparently just did. Now as a grown ass adult I cherish them. Those naps are the life-blood of getting my ass back on schedule for work or having the patience and energy to just go deal with the sunlight walking world.

On a separate story last night I was exhausted enough that for the time I was at work and not counting down the hours before I could leave early to go nap, I decided to put in the most bare minimum effort and let my coworkers figure out the yard management themselves. When I went to do a yard audit the only numbers I checked were that of the trailers and the quantity of tractors. I did not check tractor license plates to ensure it was the same ones in the system. It was -5f and the quantity matched the device I was using.

Que this being the one fucking time that 2 tractors had extended dwell time over 12 hours and I just said yes they were there. They weren't. There were 2 dudes that had to recheck themselves in because the remote gate agent somehow missed a step and my coworker manning the guard shack didn't know how to fix it.

It felt nice just stepping back, doing the bare minimum that my coworkers do, and letting someone else deal with the constant clerical issues we get. Everything was simple fixes, but apparently my coworkers are convinced that I don't know how to do the job and don't do anything for the yard.

I think this stems from the fact I won't go through and redirect inbounds to doors when the dock team won't pre-assign like they're supposed to. It creats more work, but chasing down drivers for that causes safety issues and I'm tired of the write-up threats over it.

Instead I focused on assigning available trailers for pickup when drivers don't get assigned and making sure the exit gate doesn't turn into a dumpster fire because the remote people can't see the bright yellow seal. This is on top of doing moves when I'm in an available truck and assisting with seal cuts/andons when prompted.

With all that said I'm tired and exhausted from the constant flipflop of my hours due to training. I'm having to resist the urge to nap at work during downtime. I would rather take the safe route and go home at that point. So I decided that for a couple shifts if my coworkers were going to say I don't do shit I really would.

Trailers in the yard would get to their proper slips and I would clear tasks, but I wouldn't take it any further than that. I can't go over the road just yet with trucks for the company until the last of my papers clear the system and it won't on the weekend because it has to ship information to the government servers too.

I think at this point I just gotta let my coworkers figure the clerical shit out. I'm always the one on the computer fixing stuff, putting in cases, redirecting and reassigning. I know I'm good at it, but coworkers gotta learn to figure it out themselves.

It's a long rant to say that work is making me tired and I think it's helping me enjoy my naps. Naps are helping me wake up refreshed enough to realize that at this point I've created a villain rant/monoloque and really just need to work on saying no this year. I people please too much still and I need to tell some of my coworkers to just stuff it and figure it out. The resources and processes are there, it's not that hard to read and mange it for most of the daily problems that pop up.

Going to read some now and go take another nap. It felt nice to vent into the void and it felt nice to take like the fattest 3 hour nap of my life after a bath.

Newborn Childcare: What to Look for in Facilities Near Your Location

1. Introduction

Once all of you as moms and dads have been asking for outcomes and traveled around, make sure that the facility is reasonably convenient for you and makes you feel comfortable. To ensure the ability to build a good and respectful relationship with the caregiving team, this includes being able to select your kid within a reasonable amount of time in the day. Another significant aspect would be the facilities of the childcare location and the quality of treatment itself. Of utmost concern are health and safety issues. Researching state regulations for childcare services will help you determine which states have the capacity to satisfy regulatory requirements. It will help the childcare facility satisfy the required legal requirements and standards; moreover, if it is nationally approved, this is also of advantage. Connext is a publicly accredited campaign that measures compliance criteria above and beyond the minimum required through the National Academy of Child Care.

You’ve finally given birth to a healthy bundle of joy. Congratulations! We know that you can’t wait to let your baby see the world outside. Then again, this freshman experience evidently includes countless meal preparation and laundry activities, not to mention hours of breastfeeding or bottle feeding. Any possibility that you or both of you, as parents, would find a beneficial childcare arrangement? However, if this would be the very first streaming video experience for your child, it is advisable that you start searching for the perfect childcare whizz at least three or four months before your planned date. Guidance for finding and selecting a fantastic childcare provider is included in this section. See information on how everyone can assist if you are enrolled in university.

2. Essential Features to Consider

Simple tasks are something that service providers should offer, like diapering, because they know there are those parents that find it hard to leave their kids at these services. Bathing and feeding are one other simple tasks the specialists should deliver as listed above and celery stages foods are given to children. The service provider should be able to create a good relationship with the children as it is pretty important. The reason is they are going to take care of them on a daily basis, and as such, trust is a key; hence your kids need to have a connection. Their emotional well-being will only improve as a result of this, they will learn how to communicate and also play well with others. Also, the professionals can offer the attentive level of care that the children need when they are seriously injured. If a kiddo is bringing the numbing creams from, then the specialists have to take them and keep them.

If you are a caring parent with a baby, have work, and cannot afford to stay with the child at home, then your only option will be to go looking for a childcare facility to leave your kid at. When you first look for these services, you need to get a place that is not only affordable but also has professionals who can take care of your kiddo as this is something that can be very overwhelming. However, not just any service provider can deliver in the area, there are those features that most of them must have, for instance, bathing, diapering, feeding, and even hands-on baby care. If this is the first time you will be taking your kid to childcare, you could use this guide more.

2.1. Safety Measures

When entering a school, you must notice where furniture is parked, napping, changing, eating, and recreation facilities are placed, what regions of mobility and surveillance are left or not. You must also take care of ventilation and heating systems, poisonous chemicals, and the need for immediate cleaning without potentially painful chemical necessities in these areas frequented by children. This measurement is also essential in playgrounds. Also, verify glass recycling or how glass is manipulated around children (they can usually be in children's hands), fire alarms, safety exits for emergency events, and family emergency kit stop losses, and the closet of medications clearly stenciled with children's names, as well as other necessary first-aid items.

In Australia, licensing protocols and safety requirements are obligations covered by federal, state, and local government legislations. Each safety measure, when considered from different authorities for different age groups, is evaluated on a predefined scale of points. Once all these points in different sources of documents reach their threshold, these mandatory boxes of safety checks are ticked, and the spotlight shines over compliance agencies' requirements. However, how much do you depend on these protocols and legislations? Relying on these obligations can lead to unconscious living. So please always ask explicit questions about school safety implementations until you are fully aware of realities. It is not meant to offend but to caution and promote vigilance.

2.2. Qualified Staff

In Brazil, the National Education Council (CNE) published the Resolution No. 6/2010 guidelines, which establish orientations for the 'National Early Childhood Education Curricular Guidelines'. There are changes in the training of professionals who will work with infants. These professionals must hold a degree in 'Early Childhood Education' to work with children from zero to five years old, keeping in mind the specific competencies of educators who will meet children from zero to 3 years of age, as follows: encourage autonomy and at the same time work in partnership with families from different ways of giving and understanding children; take care of joys and conflicts, respect the sleeping and eating rhythms in a family dynamic; act as mediators in the construction of narratives, individual and collective stories of children. To ensure quality education, it is necessary to establish a minimum professional qualification profile, which is only possible through the higher education of professionals working with children from zero to three years old.

Infants need specialized care, including love and protection to avoid risks of falls, choking, and 'Sudden Infant Death Syndrome' (SIDS), since they are totally dependent on someone to meet their most basic needs. However, many unqualified people are provided by parents to work in clandestine nurseries and daycares. As illegal workers, these people do not have the rights and duties that Brazilian legislation requires for early childhood educators. It is also common for professionals to provide the service just to have a source of income. That worries plenty of people, especially those who do not have other options due to financial issues or preferences. The fact is that you do not give your baby to a stranger, but to an extremely important person in the child's life, especially if the parents cannot dedicate themselves full time to their care. It is responsible for stimulating their development, protecting them from accidents that are common in childhood, responding to their most basic needs, transmitting safety, confidence, affection, and love. The educator must also have good communication with the baby's family. For this purpose, the guardian (mother, father, or tutor) should try to remain with their newborn for as long as possible in the nursery or the nursery until they feel safe with the generations. The establishment should have an internal communication tool to send daily reports about the child's behavior, the administration of medicines, and concerns about their development with parents. Ideally, visits should always be allowed, trust should be established between families and educators.

2.3. Clean and Hygienic Environment

Many new child care foundations additionally have exceptionally exacting approaches about who can enter the structure, and when they can visit.

Investigation methodology varies from one place to another, so ensure you ask the staff individuals what their procedures resemble. You're searching for a child care that is truly aware of cleanliness and sterilization concerns, not one that is more worried about getting your installments paid. They may likewise be in the propensity of utilizing non-toxic, natural child items and cleaners to additional guarantee the security of your child, and they ought to have pretty strong strategies set up to forestall the spread of sickness and illness. For instance, it's probably best practice to stay away from the child care office preceding inoculation.

As a rule, you should search for a child care that is consistently sparkling clean. The toys, bedding, and child care gear should all be disinfected and purified daily, and cleaned consistently during the week. The changing zones and the child care staff should tidy up themselves similarly like endearing are tended to in precisely the same manner.

Something else you should watch out for when touring newborn foundations is the general cleanliness and consideration they give to cleanliness criteria. Germs can be particularly hazardous to babies, making a controlled and sterile climate incredibly significant.

3. Additional Services and Amenities

Though it was earlier mentioned that mothers are generally happy to find a clean facility of newborn care center located conveniently close to their home or workplace, it seems that there are other factors besides such general factors like distance and cleanliness to consider. According to a 2018 article, the following are the crucial factors that most mothers would want to consider when they are hunting for a newborn infant center, namely: quality of interactions, caregiver qualifications and ratios, cost, support for new parents, location, cleanliness, security, highchairs and wipes, facilities, emergency readiness, interview process, breastfeeding help, parental involvement, feeding preparation and food, and relaxation and play environments. Of these, though not mentioned earlier, cleanliness, facilities, and caregiver qualifications seem to be the most important.

In addition to general facilities cleanliness, caregiver education, and background checks, there are many other factors that can make a big difference when you are trying to pick the best newborn childcare facility. You can cut down your research time considerably and find the best newborn infant center near your home; just ensure that you consider all or most of the factors given below. In case you need to travel and are concerned with the distance it will take to reach a particular infants' center, you can also consider hiring a babysitter or a nanny. Nannies can take care of your baby from the comfort of your home, which would be a great arrangement if you're dealing with twins or are planning to get pregnant soon.

3.1. Nutritious Meals and Snacks

In addition to good nutrition, it’s important to be mindful of how meals and snacks are eaten. During meals and snacks, the staff should sit at the eating table with the children to provide gentle and warm encouragement about the importance of eating, as well as guiding their hands so they can put the food into their mouths using the utensils (under two). After sitting with the children and having one 15 minutes, the educators or teacher assistant should have one go-around with warm and wet reusable cloths and lightly swipe the top of hands and cheeks to keep the face, hands, and neck clean; it will help children feel fresh and comfortable. Ensuring the best customized care is given to all children when it comes to specified dietary changes, whether they are allergy, sensitivity, intolerance, or preference based, is also paramount. Flexibility is essential for food that are not okay to talk about.

Newborns and infants need to eat often and require a diet plentiful of vital nutrients to grow healthy. When searching for a childcare facility for your infant, ensure it provides well-balanced meals and snacks full of nutrients. The centre you pick should have a trained chef or a full-time allergen-certified cook who can offer infants the infant-specific nutrition they need at the facility. Meals and snacks should be aligned with the Children’s and Infants’ Menu Planning Guidelines, Canada’s Food Guide to Healthy Eating, and Canada’s Food Guide to Feeding your Baby (0-24 months). Ensure the centre can provide elaboration from a registered dietitian or certified nutritionist, if requested.

3.2. Age-Appropriate Activities and Learning

At Precious Cargo, we use the WRAT Kit to develop age-appropriate activities, which is a guide to a child's development by NM certified child care inspectors. When we plan for our various age groups, we consider the baby's developmental needs and use the WRAT Kit to support various domains for brain and motor development. Stop in and pay us a visit. We would love to get to know you and show you around. The Precious Cargo staff are very kind, caring, and compassionate to create an environment in our center. We partner with parents to be professional advocates to both children and their families. Our teachers are nurturing and recognize each precious child as an individual. We meet every child where they are and support their growth one milestone at a time.

Make sure to plan a visit to the daycare before enrolling your baby. While on your visit, pay attention to the environment. Observe baby's activities and if each is age-appropriate. We share a few examples of baby's age-appropriate activities. When choosing a child care facility for your baby, how the staff plans the activities and organizes the environment is important. Does the facility use the guidance of childcare professionals to plan what baby will be doing all day? Are the plans on display before you walk in? When you enter, are the items visually easy to see or are the items only decorating the space and not engaging the baby? Will the baby spend the day on their bumpo while all the activities are high above them? If they do, when would the baby get to practice all the new milestones they need to help develop? Or are the activities on the baby's level where the baby is free to move and explore the world through safe spaces?

4. Location and Convenience

The next thing you should be concerned with is the overall environment. Your initial step is to determine whether it is clean, safe, and appealing to kids of all ages. Is there enough room for your child to play in and is it filled with an appropriate amount of attractive and comfortable furniture and toys? There is also the matter of cleanliness. Ask if they have employed a maintenance staff for cleaning facilities. Another thing to check out is any outdoor playgrounds and indoor gym. What about the food pantry? Purity in meal ingredients is essential. If the kitchen isn’t well-kept, your child is more likely to grab food-borne diseases, which can be inimical to his health.

If the nearest childcare is way past your office, don’t be disheartened. You’ll need to rely on your scheduled visits to alleviate your baby’s ‘abandonment sorrow.’ When choosing a Newborn Day Care Coral Gables, it doesn’t need to be within walking distance. It can be a few blocks away from your place of work too. They can decrease your commute time and make your day a lot less stressful. Don’t dismiss this benefit. Paying attention creates security. Also, with your growing child always in mind, you are compelled to exert greater effort than ever to approach your presentations and meetings with a sense of purpose and decisiveness. Early childhood educators are essential in the care and appropriate early education. Make sure that the childcare you choose has highly skilled educators that have completed advanced college credit courses in caring.

Lucky you if the childcare facility you’re eyeing is near your workplace. Your baby will love it too. According to psychologist Geraldine Aroncline, children are highly attached to their parents and cannot bear separation for prolonged periods. It’s one of the reasons why many of them are said to undergo ‘separation anxiety’ when mom and dad must leave them for work. Of course, that won’t be the case if the childcare facility is just walking distance from your office. Being close by, you can visit your child whenever you can and spend quality time instead of waiting for the weekends and the next holiday. For the parents that have nine-to-six-hour jobs, there are no other options when they simply cannot rush back at their children’s whim.

4.1. Proximity to Your Home or Workplace

When selecting one daycare for your child, you need to make sure that it's a place where children feel loved and welcomed. Their happiness will tell you if it is a good place or not. In the past, crèches as they were called (they're day care facilities these days) were mostly places where children were just looked after, but these days, day care facilities are so much more than that. What you're looking for is costly, but if it means your child will be safe, loved, and have a good time, it's money well spent. Only by choosing a good day care facility will you be able to attain peace of mind during your work hours.

As someone who hasn't had their first child, you've been told that having a child is a life-changing experience, full of ups and downs. Now, you've decided to start planning on making the most of this part of your life. The first thing you should do is start looking for newborn childcare. You'll quickly realize that newborn childcare is not as affordable as you thought it would be. After all, it doesn't make sense to put your child in a place where they won't be safe, they won't be taken good care of, or you won't have any peace of mind as you try to work. It makes sense to be picky about the place you'll choose to put your child in. After all, since being a stay-at-home mom stopped being a reality long time ago, childcare workers play a significant role in the children's upbringing.

4.2. Flexible Hours and Availability

One slightly more subtle issue is how illness accounts for in the centre. It is a simple fact of life that children get sick; a lot. The reality also is that even if a child is running a fairly high fever, the child is going to be pretty happy, bouncing off the walls, at some point during the day. So, if a sick child is infecting all the other kids, the child will be going to infect another child at home later that day. Look for a child-care centre that acknowledges the necessity of staying home some days, be it due to illness or holiday, and which respects the caregivers' decisions regarding when it's okay or not to send the child in. If the sick child is perhaps missing out on some of the fun, at least.

Flexible hours and availability: The schedules of newborn children do not correspond with that of an eight-hour workday. There are facilities that offer extended hours and overtime to meet the scheduling demand of the working parent. Most facilities run a structured schedule all year-round, so you do not have to make due arrangements for days off. These might be multifaceted, but they offer better opportunities for combining children's activities such as sports, music, tutoring, if not so during the school hours.

What Is Diabetes?

Diabetes is a disease that arises when there is an increase in blood glucose, also named blood sugar. Glucose is your primary source of energy in your body. Your body will make glucose, but glucose also comes from the food you eat.

Insulin is a hormone composed by the pancreas that aids glucose in getting into your cells used for energy. If you have diabetes, your body does not make sufficient or use insulin, then Glucose stays in the blood and does not reach your cells.

Decrease Your Coffee Intake

Changing the morning is a big lifestyle change, but it will have a huge impact on the quality of life of a diabetic patient. You can make your coffee with no sugar and eliminate having a cuppa from fancy places, as it may include ample sugar that will result in severe glucose fluctuations.

Exercise right

Physical activity is also another necessary cornerstone of diabetes management. When you exercise daily, your muscles use glucose for energy. Physical activity aids the body in using insulin more efficiently. It is advisable for people to exercise for an hour every day or a minimum of five days a week.

Quality of food

For a diabetic diet, every meal must be a good mix of fruits, proteins, vegetables and starches, and fats. It is vital to select the best type of carbohydrate to consume. Few carbohydrates such as vegetables, whole grains, and fruits are better foods for diabetic patients than other types of carbohydrates. This food includes high levels of fiber and is low in bad carbohydrates that aid in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Be mindful

Management of stress is a vital part of controlling diabetes. Stress might increase blood sugar even when you follow the meal plan, exercise, and drink water. You can also join a yoga class, explore mindfulness activities or take Best Ayurvedic Medicine for Diabetic like Diabesity care.

Drink More Water

Staying hydrated is a simple method to stay in control of your glucose level. One research found the more water study participants drank, the less likely they were to build high blood sugar. The research found individuals who drank less than half a liter of water every day were at risk of developing blood sugar problems.

Get enough quality sleep.

Getting good quality sleep feels best and is vital for good health. Poor habits of sleeping and lack of rest might affect blood sugar levels and increase the type 2 diabetes risk and insulin sensitivity. They will also promote weight gain and increase appetite.

Sleep deprivation increases the hormone cortisol and plays a crucial role in blood sugar management. Enough sleep is about quality as well as quantity. The NSF or National Sleep Foundation advises that people get at least 8 hours of sleep every night.

To improve sleep quality, you must: -

⦁ Get exercise regularly

⦁ You can cut down on screen time before bed

⦁ Eliminate alcohol and caffeine during the day

⦁ Follow a sleep routine

⦁ You can restrict your naps

⦁ Keep your bedroom cool

⦁ You can try meditation

⦁ You can use calming scents or soothing such as lavender

⦁ You may take a shower before bed or a warm bath

⦁ You may create a bedtime routine

⦁ Eliminate working in the bedroom

Use (safe) diet pills or appetite suppressants. Green tea, cinnamon, coffee, apple cider vinegar, mint, lemon/citrus, etc.

✨Motivation✨

Remember that you want to feel hungry, light, and cold. Remember how good you feel when you haven't eaten for 24 hours.

Drink sparkling water to stave off cravings and hydrate!

Remember the hate, anger, and shame you feel when you lay in bed at night covered in your fat.

Okay, but Taang’s kids would be so feral. Both their parents are so laid back and they’d be such a happy family but they’d look a total mess, and their kids would be wild

Everyone goes to sleep and wakes up pretty much whenever they want. Aang is notoriously late to all his Avatar briefings and appointments and Toph just walks into her office at like 2 pm with a coffee and is like “right, here’s the case for today, fuckos”. There first kid or two probably slept fine and they maintained some sort of schedule but it all goes to pot once the third baby comes along because he cries through the night and they just fall into the habit of going to sleep whenever they can. The older kids catch on to this and truly break the will of their parents by refusing to go to bed until Toph is eventually like “you don’t want to go to bed? Fine. But keep the noise to a minimum, try not to fight and if you do, just don’t get hurt your brother too badly because mommy needs a spirits-damned nap”

They have too many kids. Like, I’m thinking 6. Maybe even 7. Toph had originally said that they’d have three kids, tops. If they didn’t have an airbender during the first, second or third pregnancy, that was it. Aang and Toph had pretty much decided that, if they didn’t have an airbender by the third pregnancy, they’d have to think about having an open relationship so Aang could... sow his airbender oats. Toph was actually the one to suggest it as a solution to this potential marital problem. Aang didn’t really like the thought of it, but conceded that it might be necessary. It worked out okay- their first child was a little airbender girl that they named Dorji. They kind of forgot about the 3 kids maximum rule immediately after.

There are next to no manners. The kids never say please or thank you (unless they’re on their best behaviour for Granny and Grandpa) but they are considerate and otherwise polite. They listen when spoken to and mostly do what’s requested of them. They’re good kids... just a little rough and grubby around the edges.

Bath time is an all-out war. The youngest earthbending kiddos do not like bath time one little bit. Even one or two of thr airbending children are reluctant too. Toph basically spends an hour or so before bath time trying to pull toddlers from their hiding spots underneath beds, out of cupboards and closets while Aang has a jolly old time trying to chase runaway (flyaway?) airbenders on his air scooter. Needless to say, Toph always feels like she gets the short-straw out of the two of them.

Toph calls all the kids her ‘badger moles’ as a term of endearment. Aang has a lightbulb moment and tries to coin the phrase “sky calves” but is met with a pig snort of laughter from Toph and disappointed silence from the kids. He sulks for a week.

He regains some Dad Points ™️ when he refers to one of his sons’ temper tantrums as “Earth Rumbles”

Pillow fights and rough and tumble play are a daily occurrence

The house is never tidy. Toph puts the kids in time out the first few times that they draw on the walls, but Aang thinks they’re just ‘being creative’ and says they’re cute. Toph finds a compromise- they can doodle on the walls but only in their own rooms

Aang sometimes spends time away on business and when that happens, Toph and the kids basically eat nothing but junk food. The kids low-key kind of enjoy his absence because they don’t get any lectures about how food can still be tasty without meat.

Aang and Toph are largely on the same page in terms of parenting styles- their biggest disagreement stemmed from the issue of their kids’ diets. Aang, as the cook of the house, wanted all the kids to be vegetarians, regardless off whether or not they were airbenders. Toph went along with it for a few years. Aang wouldn’t cook meat, so any time she craved it, she had to make it herself and she once made the mistake of letting one of the boys take a bite from her dinner in front of Aang, which lead to an almighty row. Toph argued that the kids- including the airbenders- ought to have a right to choose what they ate, just like she did, and she ultimately persuaded him by reminding him of how Poppy and Laoa’s strictness had just pushed her to run away and rebel as a teenager. Did he really want to risk driving a wedge between himself and his children by micromanaging their lives rather than trusting their kids to make the right choices for them? “Besides,” Toph had argued “you’re the better cook anyway, so they’ll probably choose your vegetarian meals anyway”. She was right, and all but two of their children chose to remain committed vegetarians

In a similar vein, some of their kids wear shoes, some don’t. Hell, even Aang gets so used to being barefoot at home that he has to make an effort to remember them before heading off to meet officials
