Rich & Sad | Jiraiya x Reader |
author's note: this was in the wip graveyard for like a year plus, ngl, though @yeowangies admitting to being an old man fucker helped revive it. this is based on a song of the same name by post malone (i know, big surprise coming from me)
pairing: jiraiya x fem!reader
warnings: angst, mentions of alcohol, typically all the sadness you would think of in a jiraiya work tbh
I just keep on wishing that the money made you stay.
Jiraiya's pen flicks easily along the notepad; most authors opt for computers these days, and he supposes he should get with the times. But his old method of writing by hand on whatever scrap of paper he could find got him this far: sitting in a mansion with no spared expense and every amenity a man could dream of. Hell, it all started in a bar with an idea written on a cocktail napkin as he watched the bartender serve her regulars and newcomers through a peaceful reverie. It was the look in her eyes, so clearly not present unlike the rest of her working body, that flooded through the dam of his writer's block that sent him through a flurry of those little square napkins.
It's cold, though. Even with all the money his bank account could ask for, he finds turning the furnace on pointless; there's nobody to keep warm, and he's been numb to it for quite some time now. Perhaps he should relocate to the mansion down in Mexico soon— tis the season.
You always hated that mansion.
"Don't you love the view, babe?"
"Yeah…" Your eyes shifted from his as you lied.
He should burn it to ash.
Jiraiya's latest novel is for a new series, and while he initially only intended a one-off, he's quickly coming up with idea after idea to turn it into the most dramatic story he's ever thought of. It may just rival any soap opera by the time he's done— and wouldn't that be something, if he could have a book turned into a show or a movie? He's already got more money than he knows what to do with; it'd just be wasteful at this point.
But maybe a few more zeros on his bank balance can convince you he's worth it?
Jiraiya sets aside the pen and makes a call whilst surveying the empty room, reserving his usual VIP room at a club downtown, preemptively adding a few extra bottle girls to his tab before the line clicks and he's off to dress himself. His closet is massive, the size of the three bedrooms he had the walls of removed just to accommodate this collection of suits, accessories and the like, most of which he's never worn.
“Jiraiya, those rooms were supposed to be for our kids, not some ridiculous closet!”
“Relax! I can buy another house, baby, don't worry.”
Even in his own home, he's got appearances to upkeep.
Though he has worn every single tacky Hawaiian shirt he owns, of which he has an entire corridor of this closet dedicated to. The club he's booked tonight has a dress code specifically against those, however (and specifically put in place because of Jiraiya) so tonight he's opting for a black suit with gold accents and leaves the shirt behind as he buttons the jacket about halfway. He's not sure who started this movement of showing up half dressed, but he'd love to get on his hands and knees and give them all of his gratitude.
Jiraiya walks by the empty, unlit portion of the closet, refusing to think about the day he’d finally unscrewed and tossed out the lightbulbs shining light on his darkest days.
The club is loud, packed and boozy when Jiraiya arrives. He's enough of a regular to be vaguely anticipated even without his reservation, and as such there's more than a conga line’s worth of women waiting for him. The symphony of “Hiiii Jiraiya~!” is intoxicating, along with the cheers when he announces the drinks are on him tonight. He's got a card on tab at all times here; he doesn't even remember what it looks like, but it's probably a black card.
“Babe, you gotta start spending more on your card. The penalties are kicking my ass!”
“Then cancel the card.” Your voice is dead, along with your feelings for this relationship. You can't remember the last time you spent time with Jiraiya rather than a product of his wealth.
Jiraiya goes through the throngs of pretty ladies itching to be his sole beneficiary, kissing them all with an obscene amount of tongue before he's even gotten to his private party room. The bottle girls are ready, serving what he's buying to every patron in the club. The atmosphere is rowdy and everyone's having fun, swapping drinks, pills and saliva. What else are Saturday nights good for?
“Can't we stay in for once? I'm not up for partying.”
“Well, what the hell else are we gonna do?”
In the center of the room, Jiraiya sits alone in the plush armchair, staring through the sexy bodies before him and rather at the wall. When you've done this once, you've done it a thousand times. He hasn't found joy in any of this in many years now.
He hasn't felt anything.
All this stunting couldn't satisfy my soul.
Jiraiya’s back in the mask the moment gentle fingertips touch his jaw, and when he looks up he could swear he's seeing you. But then one blink and the truth is before him: you're not here, and never will be. As the image of the stripper before him settles, he plasters on a smile and allows her to pour the liquor right into his mouth.
By closing time, he's got thousands on his tab and can hardly stand on his own. He's more than capable of holding his liquor, but frankly he's had much more than he should've. Truthfully, he's surprised he's got a liver at all anymore. Jiraiya stumbles out of the club, that big body crashing into a light pole as he fumbles for his cell phone, the device being the latest edition Apple has to offer, though the old man can hardly figure any of it out. It crashes to the concrete, shattering the screen that brightly displays a picture of you looking so bright and smiley and happy.
He stole the photo from your Instagram page when you posted it on a day many moons after you left him. And he made sure to crop out the man beside you that's wearing your wedding ring on his finger.
Jiraiya hits the ground hard when he bends over to pick up the phone, and with the cold air chilling the sidewalk he finds himself more willing to stay there than try to find a way back home in his inebriated state.
Got a hundred big places but I'm still alone.
The bright light of the broken screen blinds him, but he still manages to dial your number through nearly-closed eyes. The ringer drones on and on, and just when he thinks he's going to voicemail, the line picks up.
“Jiraiya.” It's said with a sigh, softly. There's no irritation this time, and instead he's met with nothing but pure sadness. “You can't keep calling me.”
“What if I penned a new medical drama, hm? Those’re popular…”
“Why don't you do what fulfills you, like your first novel?” Before he'd waded into the world of smut and taken on those rabid readers, he'd written a thrilling book that sold poorly, but has a rather dedicated cult following after all these years. It was a truly brilliant read, and even now serves as a reminder of the man you originally fell in love with.
“Those books don't sell. The money didn't make you stay… So it's gotta be worth the trade, no?” He's far too late in the game to make it right; after your ex-fiancée has her fifth wedding anniversary, there usually isn't any salvation in pulling your head out of your ass.
I would throw it all away.

Sparks Fly - Part 1

Summary: After working as an engineer for Wilford & Gilliam Trust for several years you find evidence of seedy dealings and burned books. After turning in the evidence you find yourself in danger and seek help. You're taken into the protection of a mob family where you run into your high school best friend, Mace.
Word Count: ~1000
Warnings: Implied violence and attempted murder. Please let me know if I missed any.
A/N: Kind of a short chapter to get things started. At the moment Reader has no descriptors. This is part of the Garbage Men AU.
Part 2
Series Masterlist

Mace was enjoying his time at the bar. It wasn't often he and all the other guys got to go out together. Well, all except Curtis. Him and Teach were still in their Exciting New Relationship phase. He couldn't fault them, especially since he was able to prod Curtis on how he'd been right all those weeks ago.
He was enjoying watching Hal trying to teach Jake some pickup artist stuff when he got a text: Prep the guest suite. Mace put his phone away and paid his tab before letting the guys know what was happening.
The Guest Suite was the name given to one of the nicer apartments the family kept as safe houses. Mace was generally in charge of their upkeep, seeing as how he was handy with just about everything they needed. Furnaces, fuses, water heaters, even plumbing, he was really good at fixing and maintaining the apartments. It’s why he was officially in charge of the maintenance for the low-income housing that the Family funded.
Several apartments were kept empty for specific reasons. The only one Mace didn’t touch was the Basement Studio, where Barnes and Fowler did their more intense interrogations. Curtis took responsibility for that one and Mace was happy to let him. Most of the others were Singles, kept open for victims of abuse or runaways in need of a safe space. There were a couple of Lofts for when Family members needed to lay low for a while. But the Guest Suite was something special, reserved solely for potential witnesses that the police were unable to keep safe. Its upkeep was focused on making it feel warm and welcoming and catered to witnesses, making them feel more inclined to testify, if only because they felt safe to do so.
Part of prepping the Guest Suite was stocking the place with food. It was an off hour but Mace managed to gather up enough to last someone a couple of days, making a note to pick up more at a better time. He got to the apartment and set to work making the place ready. He stored the food, got the heater going and kept an ear out for any off noises while he did the rest of his work. He made sure the bed was made and even checked that the dishes and cooking supplies didn’t have a layer of dust.
While he was checking things he got another text, We’re here. Mace kept working and listened for the door to open. He made sure to keep himself where the guest would be able to see him immediately. It wouldn’t do to startle the guest. He was just double checking the security bars on the windows when he heard the door opening.
“Now this is where you’ll be staying,” he hears Huffman say. “Mace here has got the whole place secured and full of food. And if you need anything else, we can get it for you.”
“Mace?”
He turns around and sees you. It takes his brain a second to recognize you, “DC?”
You run up to Mace and hug him, “AC! God it’s been so long!”
“What kind of trouble are you in that brought you here, DC?”
“Umm…well..” you stutter.
“She’s got dirt on Wilford & Gilliam,” Huffman interrupts. “You two know each other?”
Mace looks at Huffman, “we went to high school together. We were really good friends, bonding over a shared interest in engineering.”
You giggle, “we were such nerds we even nicknamed each other after the AC and DC electrical currents. I was DC, Direct Current, because I had my life all planned out and was a straight shooter.”
Mace smiles shyly, rubbing his hand on the back of his head, “and I was AC, Alternating Current, because my plans were all over the place and my interests kept varying from month to month.” He turns to you, “you’re in trouble with Willford & Gilliam?”
“I…I was working for them and found some…irregularities in the finances. And the blueprints. And a few other things.” You start shaking at the memories of the past week and Mace pulls you in for a hug to steady you.
“They sent goons to kill her,” Huffman continued. “They’ve managed to find her at three different safe houses under my department's jurisdiction. I’m pretty sure I’ve got a mole or something. Barnes approved getting her set up here.”
Mace nods, “who do you have set for guard duty?”
Huffman gives Mace a once-over, “I’m thinking it should be you.”
“Woah,” Mace argues, “I’m not guard duty material. I’m just maintenance and information!”
“Mace,” you whimper, “please? I’d really like to be protected by a friend, not a stranger.”
He looks into your eyes and sees how tired and stressed out you are. He knows you’d be safer with someone else but he can tell you need something familiar and safe or you’re going to be a nervous wreck.
“Okay,” he concedes. He turns to Huffman, “I’m still gonna want some back up or something.” Huffman nods in agreement. “And someone’s going to have to tell Curtis I’ve been commandeered for a little while.”
“I’ll make sure he agrees to the plan.”
“So you’re gonna talk to Teach?”
“Well, I do value my life, Mace.” Huffman heads out, leaving you and Mace alone together.

Yield to the Sea
Author's Note: More of Catius in Living Waters AU.
Summary: As Catius is out gathering stuff for the others in making their cave a home and to make sure they have supplies for emergencies he gets a distress call.
Warnings: Character death, self blame and survivors guilt, organ harvesting, Let me know if you need me to add anything.
Past =-= Next
Tagged: @barn-anon, @bleedingichorhearts, @c-u-c-koo-4-40k, @egrets-not-regrets, @kit-williams,
Tagged continued: @sleepyfan-blog, @whorety-k, @ms--lobotomy @bispecsual @thevoidscreams
Tagged continued: @i-am-a-dragon34, @gra93fruit-blog
Catius was swimming, glad to be out of the cave that had been where he and Ramiel had been recovering in. He loves his brothers, but sometimes they had been almost smothering in their concern and worry for him.
He understands why though, be able to show such concern, and be able to help and fuss after him and each other was something they weren't able to back when they were back Then. He is going over the list of items that they need to gather, what is most to least urgent to gather.
Since they are on Ancient Terra and none of them have a forge or the training to do so, doing more than basic upkeep on their armor isn't possible. Perhaps if they found a wandering Salamander, either as an individual or as a shoal of them they might be able to ask for trade for fixing their armor for services or good or something.
Or- Jophiel or one of the others could talk to Erriox to see if he knew what they would have to do to get some of the Warp Smiths to help fix up their armor, if it was possible to do so with the highly limited supplies that they have on Ancient Terra.
But none of them were very happy or comfortable with the idea of asking some of Erriox's Chaos Traitor Brothers for help. Especially with something as critical as armor, it just sounded like some of the dumbest and stupidest idea to even contemplate. He is shaken from his thoughts when his vox crackles to life and he hears someone call out.
"-elp," He hears, and tries to call out on his vox device- which only does static, and he curses out loud his fucking useless broken vox. "-lease -elp."
He desprately tries to send a location ping- to send a text-vox message that sends a location ping request. All hat his helmet sends back is an error message- he had been unable to send messages out. But, unfortunately, he can recieve message. Which seems unkind and almost worse thank a fully broken communication device.
"-ounded," The voice calls out- they sound ragged, wounded, hurt. Throne Curse him this sound bad. He tries to search for the person, knowing that it's likely in vain, who knows how distant the voice is- the vox communication devices can send and recieve over vast distances. And Ancient Terra is vast in it's scope, for all that it's a single planet.
By the time he finds the person, he's been callout out loudly using all three of his lungs, bellowing at the top of his voice, trying to find and call out to the person who's in his bust vox who's begging for help. Their voice growing weaker, and weaker, more desperate and sad.
He finds the person, and his hearts drop to his stomach. He recognizes that familiar blue and gold armor. This person is a fellow Ultramarine- and from the make of his armor. He's a fellow Primaris Marine. He swims as fast as possible to his brother's side and he curses loudly, as tears sting his eyes and makes it harder to see.
This brother was too still, if his hearts, both of his hearts flatlined, his Belisarian Furnace should have activated to give him one final jolt of energy to survive. That it happened spoke to several bad things having to have happened. Or it had, but Catius had been too slow to retrieve him.
This brother- from the wounds on his scales and armor- had been a member of the unfortunate company that had been lost in the warp and abandoned by Captain Sicarius. He uses what he knows of First Aid to assess the condition of his brother.
He hangs his head. Dead, he'd not made it in time. This pooor brother died again and thought he died alone- calling out for help and that no one had heard him call out for help. He allows himself to sob, wail and curse himself out for not being fast enough before smacks his cheeks and gently grabs his dead brother's body.
Catius is going to take his body to their cave. Ramiel needs to do Last Rights- and… and… Cedric needs to do Apothecary things to help his brother pass on as well. They should… they should be able to say goodby to Atlas one last time.
His hands shake and he carries the dead weight and grimly sings the funerary durges that he'd been taught by his first born brothers in the Ultramarines. The first of his fellow Primaris Marines that heard him was Claude- who'd shadow teleported to his side once he registered what it was he was singing- worry on his face, and sadness when he spots Atlas's dead bady.
"Let me help you carry him Cedric and Ramiel." Claude says softly.
Catius nods, blinking back tears. Hopefully they would be able to s-s-salvage things from Atlas, who hadn't been dead for more than an hour or so. Jophiel is the next to find them- scenting blood in the water faster than any of them could, due to his Blood Angel Lineage.
He called out to Cedric and Ramiel- who'd swum over swift as they could- and Catius told them what had happened- how he'd heard a distress call, but hadn't been able to respond on vox- and how he'd yelled as loudly as he could, desperate to try to find whoever had called for aid.
But Catius had been too late and he hadn't found Atlas in time, his voice his hoarsh, and barely a whisper, he'd nearly destroyed it trying to find someone who's already lost to him. Again. He apologizes for not being fast enough.
Cedric and Ramiel's shoulders shake, but their hands are steady as they gently take Brother Atlas from Claude and Catius, and swim off to tend to his dead body as Apothecaries and Chaplains do. Catius is glad, even in a dark sense that he'd found some intact and had independently powersourced and properly sealed properly clean jarred devices that could be used to contain certain organs.
Jophiel and Claude have wrapped their arms around Catius and he notices a keening, wailing sound, that he only just realizes comes from him as he sobs, and sobs. A few hours later, Jophiel raises his head first and Cedric and Ramiel are back. The jars are filled with the precious organs that Atlas had been able to gift them.
"You were able to get to him in time for us to save… save Progenoid, Immortis, Blecher's, Sangiun Primus Portum, Sinew Coils, Magnifcat," Cedric said, "unfortunately his Belisarian Furance was too damaged to be useful for another."
"That is good, that you were able to retrieve so much," Catius says, his voice hoarsh and shaking with emotions.
"We shall say our goodbyes and send him off into the seas to his final rest," Ramiel says quietly.
Ramiel carefully speaks the words of the ceremony, praying to the God Emperor that he'd be forgiven for overstepping his role as a Judicar. He wasn't high enough ranked to do this ceremony, technically. But he had the training for it, and he had to do is duties, for his brothers and cousins, for this living and the dead.

Avoid the Summer Rush: Why Routine Air Conditioner Service is Important for Your Home
Introduction: The Significance of Air Conditioning
As the summer months technique, the sweltering heat can make your home feel like a furnace. The secret to keeping a comfortable living environment during this season lies in effective air conditioning. Nevertheless, numerous homeowners often ignore the significance of routine upkeep and service for their heating and cooling systems. In this post, we will check out why regular a/c service is important for your home and how it can save you from unforeseen breakdowns and costly repairs.
Avoid the Summertimes Rush: Why Regular Air Conditioner Service is Vital for Your Home
When temperatures soar, your cooling system becomes one of the most vital home appliances in your family. Lots of people wait till their air conditioner units reveal indications of distress before seeking help, leading to what is frequently called the "summer rush." This period sees an increase of service requests, resulting in longer wait times and higher costs for repairs. To prevent being captured in https://g.page/r/CaQaVmfOlArYEBM/ this frenzy, prioritizing routine a/c service is essential.

Regular maintenance helps recognize prospective problems before they escalate into expensive repair work. An ounce of avoidance is worth a pound of treatment, specifically when it comes to heating and cooling systems. Let's delve into numerous elements that highlight the value of routine air conditioning service.
Understanding Your HVAC System What Is a heating and cooling System?
A heating and cooling system describes heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems that control temperature level and quality of air within property and industrial buildings. Understanding how your a/c system works can help you appreciate why regular service is vital.
Components of an a/c System Heating Unit-- Supplies warmth throughout colder months. Cooling Unit-- Lowers temperature in warmer months. Ventilation System-- Preserves indoor air quality by straining pollutants. The Effects of Disregarding AC Maintenance Increased Energy Bills
One considerable repercussion of overlooking routine a/c service is increasing energy costs. When an air conditioning unit isn't running efficiently due to dirt or mechanical issues, it has to work harder to cool your home, resulting in increased energy consumption.
Shortened Life-span of Equipment
Like any other appliance, overlooking maintenance will reduce your air conditioner system's lifespan. A properly maintained system can last as much as 15 years or more; nevertheless, without proper care, this life-span can be substantially reduced.

Key Benefits of Routine AC Service Enhanced Efficiency
Regular maintenance guarantees all parts are working optimally. This leads not only to improved efficiency however also to lower energy costs.
Improved Air Quality
Air filters collect dust and irritants in time; if overlooked, they can end up being a source of indoor pollution. Regular servicing includes cleansing or changing these filters to guarantee much better indoor air quality.

Daily Life in the Phyrexian Spheres (Maze to Bays)
Previous: Facade to Furnace

The Maze is a thick tangle of coppered greenery and savage beasts shielding loyalist Phyrexia from the outskirts of the plane, posing a significant challenge to attackers moving in or rebels moving out. In theory, the domain ruled by Vorinclex and Glissa is loyal to Elesh Norn and stands ready to serve the Orthodoxy. In practice, most Maze denizens don't discriminate between Mirran or Phyrexian, loyalist or rebel. All are prey unless they can prove their worthiness to survive, and many an Orthodoxy enforcer realizes too late that their authority provides no shield from the dangers of the wild.
Though the Maze's savage reputation is well-earned, areas of tranquility remain, shielded by dense growth. Bubbling ichor wellsprings, nexuses of mana, and meadows of rare and exotic flowers await those with the skill to find them. Pockets of relative civilization also exist, such as the living quarters of priests, aspirants, and commoners, woven or grown into the landscape's coppery scaffolding. Common roles include the upkeep of local plant life and the study and augmentation of predators, carried out by Phyrexians known as stewards.
Not all Maze residents subscribe to Vorinclex and Glissa's ideology of weeding out the weak, though, and many form communities and care for those close to them. They are reluctant to aid outsiders, usually more out of self-preservation than an idea of social Darwinism (though many justify it with the latter). Luckily, no one is enforcing their obedience or ideologies--all Maze-dwellers must do is survive. Though predators run rampant, actual policing and enforcer presence is almost nonexistent here, making the Maze a suitable location for canny rebels to hide. In particular, the border between the Maze and the Furnace is a hotspot for illegal activity--another region that praetors consider beneath their notice.

The Bays are the heart of Phyrexia's surveillance state. Every feature of the landscape, from buildings to "trees" and the great skylights themselves, is studded with ever-watching eyestalks. The cameras' ubiquity reminds residents of their duty to obey--after all, you've got nothing to fear if you've got nothing to hide. Mind magic is heavily used, and memory redaction is common. The infrastructure of the sphere itself is also carefully micromanaged, down to local climate patterns. Control centers are overseen by ranking officials but staffed by commoners, who desperately beat back the unseemly Tangle growth that reaches down here.
Religion takes a backseat here in favor of hard science, and some researchers brazenly deny the Orthodoxy and claim experimentation as Phyrexia's truest way ahead. After all, the Progress Engine's primary export is research, and its titanic labs demand a steady influx of talent, raw materials, and captive test subjects (both Mirran and Phyrexian). Compleat creatures that fall short of their duties are often "repurposed" this way. Vast amounts of information are stored in archives of glistening oil and quicksilver.
Even in this sphere of eyes, however, dissidents carve out bubbles of secrecy. Drones and cameras can be covertly hacked, and mental defenses are meticulously constructed to mislead. Spy networks infiltrate nearly every level of Gitaxian academia, pilfering research and weaponry to aid the rebellion's cause.
A quirk of Surgical Bay life, which bleeds over into the other spheres, is the tendency of tools and inanimate devices to be replaced by living Phyrexian creatures known as skites. From syringes to chests and telescopes, even the most mundane items skitter on their own accord, and railings for them to walk on are built into most rooms. These simple creatures are roughly equivalent to trained animals, and variants are employed by both loyalists and rebels to spy on their opposition.

Rolling Hills Asylum
New York
Genesee County Home also known as Rolling Hills has a long tormented history. Over 1,000 deaths reportedly took place within its walls. Genesse County purchased the property in 1826 and opened its doors to the poor a year later. They took in anyone who could not support themselves including orphans, elderly, paupers and the insane. They were self-sufficient farming on 100’s of acres of county owned land.
Besides being a poorhouse, it was a hospital, a prison for both men and women, a TB ward, and an insane asylum at the same time as an orphanage. By the 1950s, it was turned into a nursing home, but the residents were moved to a new facility in 1974. For twenty years, the building sat empty until 1992 when it was open as Carriage Village, a mall of unique shops. The name was changed to Rolling Hills Country Mall in January 2003, and became a co-op a year later. In September 2004, overnight ghost hunts began at Rolling Hills making it the first historical site in New York to do so.
There have been reports of figures in windows, shadows passing out of the corner of eyes and strange noises. Jason from TAPS had an interesting experience in a furnace room. A heavy metal door kept closing on him by itself. However, witness accounts such as these may end soon. The owner has supported the upkeep of the building by holding weekly Ghost Hunts. Unfortunately, due to back taxes and other financial obligations, Rolling Hills is currently in danger of foreclosing. The owner applied for National Historic Status in order to save the building, but that takes several years.

Techniques.
Just wanted to make a lil list showcase of ideas I've been cooking/expanding no in terms of his skillset. I really like playing around with Visions as a concept. It's that angle of taking one particular range and creatively weave as much as you can out of it. So without further ado! Some more things he learned in this tale on this blog.
Memory amplification: A fundamental force for people in Teyvat in general. It's moreso given greater highs of credence by allogenes and the elemental beings/spirits of the world. In a abstract sense the strength of memories can transform into power within this world. Thoma uses this as a physical or spiritual augmenter depending entirely on the situation.
That said the situation itself is difficult to harness by force of will. After all, there's no direct mastery in controlling what you feel to such a mechanic degree. While it's far from the real deal that roars on his heart, recalling upon the vestiges serves as enough of a boon to work on.
Telekenetic weaponry: Another overall with the aforementioned. In Thoma's case, he primarily enjoys using his spear as a piercing weapon or a means to revolve in rapid spinning around him while dressed in his flames. Techniques like this are more for dispersing a group of foes trying to hound him down with numbers. It remains at a fixed level of strength as his attention is normally elsewhere when doing it.
It has mid-range capabilities with him at best.
Crimson Ooyoroi advancement: Further working on his primary bread and butter. Outside of the shoulder guards, at a given time Thoma can form multiple specifics of this armor. The arm guards, the plated boots, except in this manner it's never all drawn in at a single setting. He'd either cast one or another.
The primary function of his scorching fire blast in a wide range is also more concentrated in this mode. Selecting to utilize them as more focused blast, the attack width is sacrificed for destructively higher power. Keeping true to his disposition of playing offense and defense, this manner of armor can burn others upon contact, while also serving as a more concentrated defense.
He sacrifices the usage of his original shield craft style in order to keep this ability up. Instead, a layer of fiery elemental coating is woven around his body in a more tight knit fashion.
Advanced shielding: This doesn't necessarily have a battle application as much as it is to fortify a base. While his Vision helps him with upkeep, the original root of this is Inazuma's advance methods when it comes to those barriers made of Electro scattered through the islands. Taking note in both study and application through practice, he's learned to use the emblematic signifier of Pyro as a focus, building the shield around this high concentration and keeping it evenly spread.
It's primary used for a tactic of absolute defense. Protection of allies, particularly important belongings, or to ensure things like the camp is safe for a night. Due to his will being reflected in the Vision, it'll only get hot if it feels like it. That said there's way to make it invisible, only translucent at most.
Fiery Tension: Dealing with enough Kairagi within the wilds of Inazuma have made him privy of this technique. Instead of using the cursed energies of Jade Steel, Thoma instead uses his Vision as a catalyst, allowing his body to become a furnace that can be effected. Allowing the power of Pyro to effect and amplify the natural chemistry of his internal elemental energy, this allows for him to convert heat energy into a boon of physical strength.
The primary tell is the way that steam drifts off of him, as if he was about to catch ablaze in an instant. (Or quite literally have a fiery aura surrounding him in other cases.)
Tapping into the pure land: Moreso another measure that can be utilized by allogenes. Thoma can allow his spirit to work into his 'inner world' where a distinct view of his constellation can be safely made and interacted with. This territory for the most part is very new to him, but improving upon this connection allows for the Rubuem Scutum to be interact with.
This same land also serves as his foundation to his resistance against abyssal taint or other spiritual maladies. Consistent training on keeping his spiritual state in a sound state will allow for the biggest boon in this regard.
It also serves as a means to amplify the emotions within everyday life and within memories to burn as a starry power. (Minus the actual star light.)
Sense of Embers: An ability that moreso has to work with tracing and tracking. The ashes left behind by flames can become a secret lead if he were to unify this ability with his elemental sight. While details like active conversations or thoughts can't be traced. Brief visions of the selected within a location can be picked up, to give him the means of being on the right trail.
It can make him privy if it was a solitary person or a party.
Heat manipulation: While this goes without saying. The way Thoma uses it is for more quality of life benefits as well. Using his Vision as a means to regulate temperature in hellishly hot settings. (Also serving as a means to keep an active power charge.) Personally exuding that heat aura to burn away all annoyances like bugs/mosquitoes from landing on him and his party, to even being able to use a blanket of elemental power to dissolve his heat signature from being one of the ways to for the sense savvy beings from picking up upon him.
Hell you'll even see him reheating plates or pots of tea to an appropriate place just by a brush of the fingers on a surface.
A lot of this is tailored to just give him less problems down the line. By practicing harder in the craft of Elemental Mastery, the more ways the imaginative aspect of a Vision can be better utilized.
#| HCs#damn it was one of those mornings#i have some old hcs that touched on other things but#i wanted to add even 'more' cause he's out here adventuring!!#we don't be keeping people stuck on the same two things!!#also rapidly absorbing heat to cool a setting sounds like#a rlly nifty trick

Seasonal Maintenance for Heating and Cooling Systems
Maintaining your HVAC system throughout the year is essential for ensuring indoor comfort, energy efficiency, and system longevity. Heating and cooling systems are significant investments for homeowners and businesses alike, and seasonal maintenance is the key to protecting that investment. This article explores the importance of seasonal maintenance, the tasks involved, and how regular upkeep can save money and prevent costly repairs.

Why Seasonal Maintenance Is Essential
Heating and cooling systems work hardest during the extremes of winter and summer. Without proper maintenance, the strain can lead to inefficiencies or even system failures. Seasonal maintenance helps catch minor issues before they become major problems.
Enhances System Efficiency
Dirt, dust, and debris can accumulate within HVAC components over time. This buildup forces systems to work harder to achieve desired temperatures, increasing energy consumption and utility bills. Seasonal maintenance involves cleaning and inspecting these parts to ensure they function efficiently.
Prolongs Equipment Life
Routine servicing reduces wear and tear. A well-maintained system can last several years longer than one that is neglected. By scheduling seasonal maintenance, you protect your investment and avoid premature replacements.

As temperatures drop, your heating system must be in top shape to provide reliable warmth. Early fall is an ideal time to prepare your heating equipment for colder months.
Inspect the Furnace
A thorough inspection of your furnace includes checking the burner, heat exchanger, and ignition system. Cracks or malfunctions in the heat exchanger can lead to dangerous carbon monoxide leaks, so professional inspection is crucial.
Clean and Lubricate Moving Parts
Moving components like the blower motor should be cleaned and lubricated to prevent friction and wear. This step helps the system operate smoothly and quietly.
Replace Air Filters
Just like in summer, replacing the air filter is critical. A clean filter improves air quality and airflow, which is especially important during the heating season when windows are typically closed.
Test Carbon Monoxide Detectors
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can be deadly if undetected. Testing carbon monoxide detectors should be part of your seasonal maintenance routine for heating systems.
Inspect and Seal Ductwork
Leaky ducts can significantly reduce heating efficiency. Inspect ductwork for holes or gaps and seal them with mastic or metal tape. This helps distribute heat evenly throughout the home.
Professional vs. DIY Maintenance
While some maintenance tasks can be done by homeowners, others require professional expertise. Understanding what you can do yourself and when to call a technician is essential.
DIY Maintenance Tasks
Replacing or cleaning air filters
Clearing debris around outdoor units
Checking thermostat settings
Visual inspection of ductwork
These tasks are simple and require minimal tools or experience.
When to Hire a Professional
A certified HVAC technician should handle complex tasks such as:
Inspecting electrical components
Testing refrigerant levels
Servicing the furnace burner and ignition system
Comprehensive system tune-ups
Scheduling a biannual visit from a trusted technician ensures your system is thoroughly inspected and optimized.
Benefits of Regular Maintenance
Routine seasonal maintenance offers several benefits beyond just keeping the system running.
Improved Energy Efficiency
Well-maintained systems use less energy, resulting in lower utility bills. Over time, these savings can offset the cost of maintenance visits.
Better Indoor Air Quality
Clean filters and coils reduce dust, allergens, and pollutants in your home. This is particularly important for people with allergies or respiratory conditions.
Peace of Mind
Knowing that your system has been professionally checked gives you confidence that it will perform reliably when you need it most.
Compliance with Warranty Requirements
Many HVAC manufacturers require proof of regular maintenance to honor warranties. Seasonal check-ups help you stay compliant and avoid disputes.
Creating a Seasonal Maintenance Schedule
Having a schedule ensures you don’t forget essential maintenance tasks. Here's a sample plan to follow:
Spring (Cooling Prep)
Change air filter
Clean coils
Check refrigerant level
Test cooling cycle
Summer (In-Use Check)
Inspect air filter monthly
Ensure outdoor unit is clear
Monitor for unusual noises or performance issues
Fall (Heating Prep)
Change air filter
Test thermostat
Inspect furnace and burners
Check carbon monoxide detector
Winter (In-Use Check)
Monitor for signs of strain
Replace filter as needed
Check vents for obstructions
Choosing a Trusted Technician for Seasonal Maintenance
Not all HVAC service providers are the same. When selecting a technician for seasonal maintenance, consider the following:
Certifications and Licenses
Ensure the technician is certified by reputable organizations like NATE (North American Technician Excellence) and holds proper state licenses.
Experience and Reviews
Look for providers with a solid reputation in your area. Online reviews, word-of-mouth referrals, and BBB ratings can help guide your choice.
Service Plans
Many HVAC companies offer maintenance plans that include seasonal check-ups, priority service, and discounts on repairs. These plans offer great value and ensure regular care.
Conclusion
Seasonal maintenance for heating and cooling systems is not just a recommendation—it’s a necessity. Regular upkeep ensures optimal performance, extends the lifespan of your equipment, and prevents costly repairs or replacements. By investing in seasonal maintenance and working with a trusted technician, homeowners can enjoy year-round comfort, better air quality, and peace of mind.
