The mess hall bustled with deep voices and the screeching of rubber soles against the dirty floor. The sun shone through the dusty windows and onto the leather-covered backs of the soldiers. An aroma of breakfast filled the atmosphere and wrapped its arms around them like a warm hug. The chefs made a large meal before missions. It was the last meal some men had to cherish. 

At a long table sat 13 men; two majors, two captains, a lieutenant, and eight sergeants. The conversations were minimal, until a sergeant spoke, “Have you met the new nurse?” He whistled he guzzled down a hefty bowl of oatmeal. He grunted after swallowing the hot oats and slurped down the black coffee beside his arm. “She’s a beauty!”

There was a discourse among the men who tried to figure out when they’d see the newly hired nurses. The wages of war came at a high price. Death and injury seemed to be a suitable payment to the creditor. To combat that, the service brought on extra hands to give medical assistance to the troops, especially with more men being enlisted to serve. Hundreds of thousands of men prepared to put their lives on the line; the least they could have was efficient medical care. 

“They all are,” another commented. “50 more nurses and half of ‘em are Black. Came in with them Tuskegee Airmen. Never seen anything like it.” 

As the pilots bantered about the new nurses, Major John Egan kept his gaze fixed on his coffee, his mind elsewhere. The arrival of more nurses was a reminder of the harsh realities of war, the constant influx of fresh faces tasked with patching up the broken bodies that returned from the front lines. Dread settled deep in his stomach at the thought of encountering them under such circumstances. With a curt nod, he urged his comrades to focus on the day ahead. Meanwhile, the chatter of the mess hall continued, blending with the clinking of utensils and the low hum of conversations.

“Haven’t seen them,” he spoke from behind the rim of his coffee. “Hoping I never have to. Let’s get going, boys.”  “Yes, sir.” 

-

“Major Egan’s hit!��� For a moment, there was silence. Then, it wound up again when the wounded leader crossed the threshold into the infirmary.

The infirmary was chaotic. Loud cries and deep groans filled the air. Trays and metal utensils kissed one another as they were tossed on carts filled with supplies. White coats here and there sifted throughout the room as green bodies wheeled more patients into the large room. 

His breathing was ragged and heavy. With blurred vision caused by tears surfacing in the ducts on his eyes, it was difficult to navigate the infirmary without bumping into objects and solid bodies. His feet were heavy as he stumbled further into the infirmary. 

"I got you, Bucky," Gale's voice was frantic as he hoisted the pilot on his body. "You're gonna be alright, y'hear me?" If he had the strength, he would have replied. His heartbeat was in his ears and his stomach was in his throat. He'd never been shot before. Would this be the end of his career as a pilot? He groaned in agony. 

"I need a nurse!" Gale hollered, his husk voice reverberating off the walls. "He's been shot. Bullet is still in his shoulder."

In front of him appeared a nurse. A highly ranked nurse, at that. She was dressed differently than the others. There was no matching white skirt set with a pretty hat, no, she was dressed just like him. Dark leather jacket, heavy pants, and dark boots. On her chest was a multitude of badges and pins, including one that was similar to the one on Gale's chest. Major. Well, he'd be damned.

She didn't stay in his sight long, as she began giving orders to two other nurses, who were preparing a bed. She ushered her patient to another nurse and wrapped her black stethoscope around her neck. Around her wrist was a small hair-tie which she used to pull her curls into a makeshift bun. With a thunderous voice, she ordered, “Bessie, get him on a stretcher and bring him to me.”

A fellow nurse, Bessie assisted Gale in getting John on a stretcher. Gale stood behind the ladies, the tip of his thumb against his teeth. As the stretcher was rolled toward her station, she made a quick work of the gloves and ordered him to stay calm. “I’m gonna cut your shirt, okay? I need you to remove your hand so I can take a look. Take deep breaths for me.”

Beads of sweat trailed down John's forehead as he gritted his teeth. His nostrils flared and his jaw shook as he tried to keep his sounds to a minimum. The nurse above him chuckled, which caught his attention. "What's funny?" He managed to ask. 

She pushed his stubborn hand to the side and used her scissors to split his shirt in half. She was unfazed as blood trickled out of the open wound. It was ugly, but she knew how to make ugly beautiful. The wound was a wicked one, but it was a clean shot that managed to miss the muscle. It would be an easy retrieval. 

"No reason to play big man and conceal your pain here, Major. You got shot. The shit hurts. You can let it hurt here." She pressed her stethoscope against his chest. Heartbeat still strong, she noted. Wavering just slightly, but strong. She called for extra hands. "Administer the shot into the upper right shoulder."

John's eyes were on her as she worked. Her brown eyes were gentle and they remained on him as she poked, but her tone was stern as she said, "Major Cleven, if you'd like to stay, you must stay behind that line. Major Egan, you just received a numbing agent to reduce the sensation. The bullet is retrievable. If you feel anything unbearable,  you let me know. I'll stitch you up good as new afterword, am I clear?" 

John’s stomach twisted at her authority. His tongue scraped across the roof of his mouth as he nodded, "Yes ma'am."

"Wonderful. Scalpel, please." 

-

"How is he?" Gale's voice was unclear. He felt groggy. His head was a boulder on his shoulders and he felt confined to the small, yet comfortable bed he laid in. 

"He'll be just fine, Major. He took it like a champ. He'll be out of commission for six to twelve weeks and will be ordered to physical therapy upon return to base. Don't give me that look, now; he is not fit for battle right now, but he will be okay, I can reassure you that. My nurses and I will take good care of him just like we will everyone else."

John heard Gale's sigh of worry. "Okay, you're right. Thank you, Major..." 

She chuckled lightly. "Nessa Dixon." 

"Major Dixon. Thank you for all you've done." 

"No problem at all. You come to me tomorrow if that wrist is still giving you problems and I’ll wrap it again for you, okay? Get some rest, you'll need it." They exchanged goodbyes and the sound of Gale's footsteps retreating became clear. Finally, John's heavy eyelids peeled open. 

"Nice to see you again," she spoke after some time. She was leaning against the wall, hands stuffed into her pockets. and her stethoscope dangling from her neck. "How are you feeling?" She made her way toward him, sitting on the stool she set at the bedside. 

John groaned as he tried to readjust. His shoulder was wrapped tightly. He couldn't move even if he tried. Amelia jumped up and propped a pillow up. "Easy now..."

"Thank you," he replied gruffly. "I'm sore. Tired. And I need a damn drink." 

His response pulled a laugh from her. Not the small chuckle she'd release here and there, no, a hearty laugh. It made him smile. "You and me both. Let's get you up and moving first. Your procedure went well. You are to stay out of combat for--"

"Six to twelve weeks with physical therapy upon return to base," he repeated her words, clearly unamused. Nessa smiled, clearly amused. 

"Good to know you listen," she replied.

John hummed. "I do, Major. Didn't know that was a thing for nurses." He hated to seem painfully ignorant, but it’s what he was at that moment. Nurses in his unit rarely received titles, unless they’d done something extraordinary or had been in service for an extended period. But she, she looked young. Like she couldn’t be much older than he was.

Nessa nodded. She was one of the first Black nurses accepted into the Army Nurse Corps after they began accepting Black women. She worked her way up the chain, she explained, earning the same prestigious he carried. On the same level as a white man whose life was in her hands. Who would've guessed? 

"Nessa is just fine right now," she suggested. "I should let you rest. I'll do one more check before I head out. Major Cleven will be here in the morning, I'm sure. Do you need anything, Major?"

"John," he said gently, tired blue eyes gazing into hers. "And I'm okay. Thank you for everything." 

She gave one nod before leaving him alone and releasing the breath she wasn't aware she held.

-

“Nessa.” The woman sighed heavily and dropped her clipboard against the makeshift desk. Silence wasn’t a thing during war. Constant movement, moaning and groaning, the calling of her name. All she wanted was a moment of silence. It was nonexistent.

“Yes?” She didn’t turn around. But, she recognized the voice. Deep. Full of rasp. The way he said her name. It was familiar. Her eyes dropped to her clipboard, scattered with notes and reports that needed to be sent to the leader physicians. 

“Why are you awake? I thought you were leaving.” 

Her eyes dropped to the watch on her wrist. 1:43am. She’d been up for almost 24 hours. She shrugged and picked up her pen to scribble on the paper more. “I can ask you the same thing, Major. You’re supposed to be sleeping. Why aren’t you sleeping?” 

Finally, Nessa turned around. She regretted it. John Egan was a handsome man. She knew that, but she was too focused on ensuring he didn’t lose his arm to focus on his features. But in this moment, in the dimly lit infirmary with no one else present, she had every opportunity to do so. And, she regretted it. 

He was tall. Much taller than she was. She assumed her head would be at his shoulder, still leaving inches of distance between them. Though his face was littered with scrapes and healing scars, it seemed to illuminate his beauty. His eyes were blue, a strong contrast against his dark, curly hair. A strong nose and straight lips that she was sure felt amazing. His upper lip was cut in the corner and dried blood remained. He must’ve begun anxiously picking at it.

He managed to change his clothes. Major Cleven must have had something to do with that. He was dressed in dark sweatpants and a sweatshirt. She was curious as to how he got his arm through the sleeve, but she’d heckle him about it later in the day. His curls were damp and tousled messily. God, he was beautiful. Bruised and all. 

He chuckled and slowly sat in the chair opposite of her. He groaned softly and readjusted himself to come into a comfortable position. “I can ask you the same question.”

She shrugged, “I’ve got paperwork to do. Go to bed, John. You can’t heal if you don’t rest.” 

“You gonna tuck me in?” John’s tone was teasing. Nessa’s eyebrows raised and the pilot threw his head back as he laughed heartily. It was the first time he laughed with passion in a while, and she couldn’t help but crack a smile as well. 

“You’re in a good mood. Let’s go. You’re going to bed and I’m going to sleep in the infirmary just in case..” She pushed up from her chair and tucked her documents into a folder. She nodded toward the door and the pilot followed suit. 

They walked side by side in silence back to the infirmary, which was near the resting area for the injured who didn’t make it back to their chambers. Luckily, everyone had. Nessa’s eyebrows raised as John lay on the same bed he was on earlier. “What’re you doing?”

“I’m your just in case,” he said simply. He laid his head against the pillow and watched as she stood still. Nessa swallowed thickly. It took her brain extra effort to tell her feet to move. She sat on the edge of the bed to pull her heavy boots off her feet. She sighed in relief. 

Nessa swung her feet on the bed and allowed her body to mold into the comfortable mattress. Her eyelids felt heavy, but still, she found his gaze. “Goodnight, John.” 

“Goodnight, Nessa.” 

Though they did not say anything to one another after that, she found comfort in the silence. They found solace in the quiet of the infirmary that kept them through the rest of the night. Together.

Alastor x reader x Lucifer

Chapter 3 Warnings: mentions of injuries.

“Who is she? The demon living in between the walls?” his severe tone made Charlie’s legs quiver, Alastor’s smile widened when he noticed. “Dad, what are you talking about?” she still tried to remain calm and cheerful, “You know, I thought I was going crazy, but then she delivered tea to my room” ‘Fast, think Charlie’ she encouraged herself, her thoughts going through your bond straight into your ears.

“There’s someone living in the walls?” Angel asked at the same time as Vaggie and Husk, intensifying the princess’s panic, “Dad it’s just a spell I managed to learn, after the extermination I've been working on my powers” a half-lie half-truth, but that seemed to do the trick.

Not because Charlie was any good at lying, but because the rest decided not to question her, why would they? Especially her father, who relied on denial, incapable of willingly accepting his daughter’s lies, rather a consequence of isolation and desperation to have a good relationship with her, even if that meant that he would have to be lied to.

Meaning, a deep part of him was aware it was a lie, but the rest decided to let it slide, painfully so.

“Yeah? Well your ‘spell’ needs work, it’s snappy” he joked, his mask better than his fake optimism. “I’ll see to it, dad” then she excused herself to the kitchen, being followed by a dark figure.

“My dad saw you” she busted inside, closing the door and sealing the noise inside. You accidentally dropped the spoon you were using to sample the salt level of the broth, giving the startle, which the princess earned a grimace in return.

“Technically no, I was using my veil” she huffed, her horns growing on her head, “Did you tell him anything?” she was desperate to know, giving how much her hands trembled, “Only that he looked anemic, which it’s true, then he asked for who I am, twice” There was no point in neglecting lunch simply because Charlie was suffering from a tantrum due to lack of control over her own emotions, and a lie that was eating her soul.

“What did you respond to?” she slammed her fist against the kitchen island, breaking the marble underneath, causing one or another shard to bury itself into her soft skin. “Just that it was none of his business” you lowered the heat under the pot, then turned to see the princess attempting to take the little pieces of stone out of her hand.

“This is bad” referring to the situation, she kept hurting herself, until you took her wrist and levitated the shards off and threw them in the garbage. “If you like them so much, why do you keep lying? You’ve seen the worst of everyone, I don’t think they will judge you, they can’t anyway” the first aid kit levitated off the cupboard, eagerly opening its lid to reveal alcohol, povidone, cotton and bandages.

“How do you confess such a thing? I have two years left to convince you, and I still haven’t made progress” she spoke as she hissed from moment to moment, feeling the sting of the alcohol cleaning her cuts, then she watched as the bandages snaked from her wrist to wrap itself around her hand, then mimicked with the color of her skin, completely invisible.

“Is it really so hard for you to understand that I don’t need to be saved?” she lifted her sight from her hands to your eyes, “I can’t just give up on you” it’s funny how you understood her urge, but simply couldn’t put up with her selflessness (obsession) sometimes.

“You can, you just don’t want to” you looked over your arm, admiring the reminiscing of your deal tattooed to your skin, like a vine threatening to tear you apart. “Anyways, quit stirring your oatmeal around, you have to eat it” Charlie gave you a pout, you knew she hated it, but since you became aware of her habit, you made sure to give her a heavy breakfast, “But the texture” she whined, getting no reaction from you.

When she left, you noticed the deer demon’s shadow attached to the princess’s, you made sure to step on it to avoid an escape on its part.

It gave you a guttural whine giving the strength of your hold, “Tell Alastor that I’ll give him roasted venison’s heart as a treat if he holds his peace” he made a thinking face, then materialized words in the air, saying “My lips are sealed up tight as a drum, chérie” then your ominous buddy slithered under the door and out of sight.

Later in the evening, around tea time, while you were cutting the heart into bite size pieces, you heard a thundering  crash, a yell and things breaking. You let your nerves ease, Lucifer was in the building so he could handle things if they escalate to a mortal edge, so instead of worrying you let the meat marinate in a mixture of buttermilk, salt, lemon juice, various herbs, and spices.

“Y/n!” you heard the summon, “Valentino is in the hotel, please…handle the situation” you set the knife down, turned off the stove, “I’m on it” and disappeared from the kitchen in a swirl of smoke.  

The scene in the lobby was horrible, the moth demon had Angel in his grasp in any way possible, one hand on his chain, two hands handling all his arms, and the remaining one fondling him with the tip of a gun.

The star’s body was bruised up to no end, mouth coughing blood, and had cigarette burns along his hands and arms. Since he had a gun, there wasn’t much the crew could do, approaching Valentino would cause Angel’s death, no matter the strategy any of the present could think of.

In between Charlie’s pleas, Vaggie and Husk’s threats, and Vox’s amused laugh, the hotel’s phone rang. The sound drawing everyone’s attention, Niffty took the old looking phone off its base, “Hello? Oh hi! Yes, he’s here, It’s for you” Vox took a few steps forward, took the phone reaching it to his ear level.

What he heard froze every liter of blood in his body, his hands, the only skin visible, paled as the voice on the other side of the line, was one he thought no longer walked this earth.

“Child” you smiled, he could feel it, “Mistress” a crawling sensation invaded Valentino´s spine, nearly cracked his neck as he violently turned his head towards his friend, “There’s a total of three thousand five hundred and seventy-five employers inside the V tower” he tried accessing his tower security camera system, but there was no connection, there was a complete blackout inside the building.

“Truly the role of overlord turned into a joke” Vox felt a pang in his side and a nauseating sensation,

“Please, please, please, don’t-” begged a voice that turned into drowned screams, “The last time we had a conversation, I taught you a lesson, recite it for me, every word that you get wrong will result into the number lowering 10 employers each” Vox swallowed a lump of saliva, as he felt the cold traveling from his toes to his neck, every bolt in his body fighting to flow correctly as he tried to re formulate a speech from thirty years ago.

“The job of an Overlord-”he lost his words, on the phone he heard it, ten times a crunching sound ten times in a row, “Again” your voice brought him back, “The role of an Overlord sovereign, is not only to torment the souls he possesses. He must be disciplined, sane, cold headed, and have the will to care for those who grant him his position and power” of 37 words he had 6 mistakes, which resulted in seventy deaths, counting in the first ten.

“Do you or Valentino enter in such a description?” his ego killed himself when he had to answer, “No”, that made you smile, “What are you now and what you’ll always be?” you had to admit, the view from the top of the tower was exquisite, the warm light from the city reflected on your figure, your ax glowing in the darkness drenched in tears, blood and saliva.

“An overpowered…pest” Vox answered, being seen by his nemesis Alastor such a state of shame, being ridiculed in front of the king of hell himself, and what’s worse, his drone was angled in a way his little stunt was streamed live all over hell, that was truly a delicious sight.

“Good boy” Valentino felt sick hearing you take a different modus operandi, usually you were one to jump from nowhere and strike, not to sacrifice ‘innocents’ as a way of extortion.

“Let’s make it fun, mh? Leave the star be, and maybe I’ll consider not paying your other V a visit” Angel heard most of everything, giving that Vox made sure the phone was in between him and the moth, so he was being obligated to hear the slaughter.  

“Val” the two overlord exchanged a look, Valentino groaned adding strength to the hold, making Angel cry in pain, “If I hear another sound of his throat I’ll knock down Velvette’s door” the two Vee’s heard their teammate voice at the distance, right in between your warning.

It all fell onto Valentino’s shoulders, but even him wasn’t that dumb, he walked forward with Angel, placing him at arm's reach from Charlie, then he let go, “It’s done” you walked far from the door as you heard the bitterness in his voice, “Lovely, now, put Alastor on the line, please” he did as told, as the smiling demon hit him with an amused look on his face.  

“Vox” he placed the phone near himself, “I better don’t catch you lurking around in the district” when you wanted to, your voice could be as warm as a fireplace in winter, but also as cold as being buried alive under a snow avalanche. “Understood” he passed the phone to Alastor, shakily so.  

“Hello?” Charlie was stunned, Alastor’s mannerisms shifted, she wasn’t sure how, but they did. “Let me know when they leave” he heard the lack of amusement in your voice, the same you had back at his old studio. “They’re out” he said as soon as the door closed.

“Good, you’ll get your reward when I come back” You lowered the trinket that could be called a telephone, however the static of his voice caught your attention, “Vais-je m'entendre avec votre compagnie, ou me laisserez-vous manger tout seul ?” (Will I get it along with your company, or will you let me eat all by myself?) Alastor caught Charlie then Lucifer’s stare, both surprised at the new voice he used when speaking French, smooth, velvety even.

“Will it make you happy if I joined you?” he wasn’t expecting you to understand him, but it pleased him to no end, “Oui chérie” (Yes darling), his antics made you miss the old times, “Maybe some other time, I am running late for dinner preparations” his smile didn’t faltered, but he was disappointed, “I’ll make sure to leave a glass of wine waiting for you in your studio, maybe in exchange of another song?” Charlie would have your head on the wrong end of her trident if you were to neglect your job.

“Merci chérie, which will that be?” you took a moment to process how attractive his voice sounded, before answering, “Surprise me” then you hang up.

Later that evening, Charlie repeated the way she wished to talk with you, busting the door open and sealing the noise, “What’s going on with you and Alastor?” ‘Straight to the point I see’ you thought while stirring the pesto sauce to fully combine it with the pasta.  

“Nothing, merely sympathy towards a comrade” perhaps that wasn’t the right term, but it was what you could think of, “You two had met already?” she made her way to the cupboard, taking out a few plates, “Not directly, but I like to think we both were aware of the other, but simply decided not to engage” it would’ve been deadly to have done so, perhaps for both Alastor and yourself.  

“Dinner’s ready, since I am not to be seen, I guess you can take it from here, make sure Angel eats it all” you left her even more confused than when she walked in.

Alastor made his way to his studio after dinner, finding the cooked little bits of venison carefully plated, next to a glass of Pinot Noir wine. He would never utter noises that would degrade his beloved reputation, but at the first bite, he couldn’t resist letting a small moan escape his throat.

At 3 am, the so-called ‘Devil's hour’, a knock interrupted Angel’s poor attempt to patch his wounds up, “Charlie, it’s late for ya’ to be…who are you?” he opened the door, finding you, fresh from the shower, it may have been a bit insulting to show up in your ruined working attire all drenched in blood, so you thought best to freshen up before making an appearance.

“I believe you already know that” he recognized your voice, it made his breath hitch, “What are you doing here?” his courage faltered giving his wounds, but if he was going to die by your hand, he wasn't going to go quietly.

“I've been in your place before” Angel’s eyes fell upon the red tin box, then scoffed, “Yeah sure” his strength faltered, laid his side against the door frame, trying to make it look cool, but failing.

“Whether you believe me or not it’s not my concern, however, those wounds will get infected if not treated correctly, giving your line of work that would be a tragedy” Angel pondered for a second, in defeat he pushed the door to open it completely, granting you access.

“Exactly how you’ve been in my place before?” he asked, watching you take a seat in his bed, taking multiple things out of the box, “You are one of four demons with powers to the level of royalty, you own thousands if not millions of souls, you dared to challenge the fucking Goetia clan and won! I doubt you were ever in pain before” he sat next to you, your image above the rest popping into his head like an epic cinematic of a great villain arc.

He then had to snap out of it due to a sound, “You fucking laughin’ at me?” you held your laughter against the inside of your clothed elbow, making the spider feel embarrassed and a little scared. “I apologize, but your ignorance astounds me” you signaled him to wait, with a snap of your fingers there was a bowl of warm water and a cotton rag, applying an antiseptic to the water before starting to palp softly on Angel’s wounds.

“The correct terminology is ‘were’ dearest, I used to be that kind of demon, now, I’m just here to aid you” Angel found that hard to believe, but didn’t question you, rather enjoyed your care.

“Is it true?” After a long time of you washing him, he broke the silence, making you look up from the cigar burns on his hands, “Did you really murdered three Goetia?” that brought you memories, when you were young and hungry for power, almost nostalgic.

“What would make you believe me? Their severed heads or the scars on my body? Because I can only offer the latter” he hissed when the rubbing alcohol touched the cut on his eyebrow, “People say you had their heads hanging on your wall as trophies” you laughed again, people’s bad mouthing can get to be really impressive, imaginative even.

“I would truly be a monster if I didn’t offer my fallen opponents a dignified burial, don’t you agree?” You had challenged three lesser lords to duel, to death of course, which they had agreed to, spoken and on paper, you would never be as foolish as just bust the door open and kill whomever.

“Please don’t speak of my presence here, if you are good, I’ll make cannoli for tea time” he could see that you were in a similar situation as his, being owed, as well as your subtle urgency. “Sure toots, I won’t”.

“Hey, can I ask, why Axe-man?” he spoke, when you were finishing to brush alcohol on the cuts on his back, “The local paper and the New Orleans police named me that, I just didn't want to change it when I got here, and people respect a man more than a woman, or that’s how it used to be” he didn’t needed stitching, if Valentino wanted to really hurt him, you’d probably would have to sew limbs together.

“That’s it? I mean…I thought it was something a bit more dramatic” you despised (understatement) the new York accent he spoke with, but he was nothing like the Italian mobsters of yesteryear, he walked with the grace of a runway model, proud of his looks, his fame, himself, but masked all his pain and self-loathing within. You felt as if you were staring at a younger version of yourself, so full of life, yet lacking purpose.

“Well, at the time no one could think a woman was smart enough to participate in politics, much less kill someone, I embraced that alter-ego over time, it became a second skin…so to speak" it was wise to believe that last statement.

Angel hummed in agreement, getting a good look at you. Yellow-beige skin; the heel of your hand was hard and rough probably because of your lion looking appearance, big fluffy yellow ears on each top side of your head almost disappearing into your hair. Taking out the ears, the long heavy tail, and the black cat nose you have, you could pass for a human, or almost looking similar to Charlie.

He was so tempted to touch your tail, the color that matched your skin and the ears, but you got up before he could reach.

“Now, take those pills, every six to eight hours should help with the pain and the swelling, I suggest you take it at a much appropriate time” he watched you as you gracefully poured tea into a white and pink tea cup, leaving it on his night stand along with a little biscuit.

“Thank you” your ears twitched happily, “My pleasure, rest” never, not to any living soul, would you admit that you enjoyed being useful, but it made you feel lighter, like breathing fresh air for the first time.

“By the way, the butler aesthetic suits you, ya’ look hot” he praised, biting a biscuit with a smile.

!Yan EJ, !Yan Toby, !Yan Hoodie and !Yan Zalgo losing their S.O, Just to find out that they ran off with the !Yan's worst enemy.

Yan!EJ

Jack had very few people he disliked, but a very high count of people he wouldn't blink twice at husking them of organs.

One person he did despise, though, was Dr Smiley.

That little prat was always stealing his victims, sometimes right beneath his steady hand holding a scalpel by disturbing the victim out of their peaceful sleep with a tap on the window, or thumping from another room.

He had no idea how Smiley kept finding him, but it was annoying as all Hell.

Jack would do anything for a good reason to kill the bastard and take his entire organ stock.

And now he had one.

You were missing, and he knew exactly where to go.

Although, not everything was as it seemed.

You finally escaped, and went to the first car you saw in the road. Smiley took you in, first as a victim, but after hearing your story he realized you two had a common fear.

Smiley has never personally interacted with Jack, or interrupted his kills for that matter, but sometimes he caught a glimpse of the demons soulless mask, and felt the raw anger emitting from his aura.

Jack was insane, and worse, a genius. His mind had convinced him that Smiley was the reasoning behind his lost kills, the cops being called, or even missing an organ in his private cooler that he forgot he ate.

Smiley tried to protect you once the front door started rattling, and your calming chamomile tea shattered against the kitchen floor.

Thing is, Jack wasn't here for you.

He was here to slaughter the doctor that kidnapped you.

Yan!Toby

This poor boy will collapse on himself and hide away until he either starves to death or passes out from exhaustion.

You've made your decision, you hated him, and you wanted a better life for yourself without Toby in the picture.

Toby isn't fine at all with that, but he can't really do anything about it when he's sobbing pathetically on the floor.

But after a depressive fit, anger will rise, and blood will be shed. There is no length he won't resort to in an effort to bring you back to him.

This man will track you down the the corner of the Earth and back again if it meant he can stand awkwardly in your presence again and give you plain oatmeal for breakfast.

And Toby wouldn't be afraid to take himself down with your lover if it meant you couldn't have them.

Without a sense of pain, Toby wouldn't even realize he's been shot twice, he would continue chopping the hatchet in their skull as you screamed in terror.

How lucky you were to have had someone love you as much as Toby.

He reached out towards you as you ran away for the last time, and for a split second he wishes he had killed you instead.

Yan!Hoodie

He was pissed when he found you gone. No note, so signs of struggle, nothing.

You really thought you could get away with this?

This man is a trained blood hound mixed with a medieval Executioner. He'll show no remorse to someone who is trying to take you away from him, no matter his personal relationship with them.

And when, not if, he finds you, he'll make sure you get a clear view of snapping Jane's neck.

But he'll toy with you first.

It starts off by catching glimpses of that dirty hoodie on the street, and pieces of torn notes your lover finds on their way to work.

Then, small and macabre gifts appear on your bedside table. A bloody knife, a recent picture of you sleeping, a dead bird, and finally a burner cellphone.

Jane told you not to worry, and that you're safe here. But you still decided to pick up the phone when it rang.

"Why don't you ever use the fireplace when its cold, [Y/N]?"

You took extra precautions to make sure all does and windows are locked, double locked, and trapped in case he did get through your protection.

And yet the bastard still found a way in through the chimney.

He followed through with his personal promise, snapped Jane's neck with ease, and then dragged you home sobbing and screaming for a death wish.

Yan!Zalgo

Having a worst enemy is one thing, but having a worst enemy that's been your rival for multiple generations is another.

While you were kidnapped dating, the war with Slender was still ongoing, and he made it very clear if he were to catch you outside unattended, he'd assume you were betraying him with those proxy spies, and you'd be punished accordingly.

Good thing he never caught you.

Slender's proxies retrieved you one night, and you haven't stepped foot in that castle since.

Once Zalgo heard the news from an unfortunate messenger, he killed him out of rage. A quick snap to the neck and then mangling his corpse with the rest of his bloodthirsty anger.

You were his darling, his second in command, his everything. You weren't supposed to betray his sickness he called love and trust after everything he's done for you.

He didn't care about Slender anymore. He could handle him through the war.

He wanted you dead, because if he can't have you, then no one can.

Ostara bath time (deep cleanse)

((long post. Sorry))

You will need (it's gonna be a big list and you don't really need ALL of it) :

Bath salts (mine was lavender)

Bubble bath

Fresh flowers of your choice (and herbs would be great too!)

Crystals (I chose clear quartz, amethyst, and rose quartz with a big piece of labradorite. Think Ostara colors)

Any oil (I chose organic coconut)

Exfoliator or a diy scrub (sugar and honey in a thick paste!)

Face wash

Body wash (I used a floral kind!)

A face mask of your choice (I used a clay mask cause I have acne)

Face moisturizer

A shaving razor (if you shave.)

Shampoo

Conditioner

Body lotion (I used lavender and strawberry)

And lastly, perfume. (Mine has rose water mixed into it)

Optional stuff that I didn't use; candles (pastel or white colors), essential oils, incense, music (happy and uplifting), pore strips, wax strips, oatmeal in a sock or filter for your bath (it makes it silky and your skin soft) AND anything else you can think of to make it a relaxing and cleansing experience.

Now. What to do with all of this stuff.

I'm sure you probably can tell what to do with it all, but I'm gonna list it all anyways!! 😁

First

gather everything up and put it all close to the tub so you don't need to get out. (I forgot a few things and had to get out all drippy. Not fun)

Start your water

and add all your bath ingredients: bath salts, bubble bath, essential oils, other oil (almond, coconut, olive, etc), oatmeal sock, bath bomb if you have one, and of course your fresh flowers and/or herbs sprinkled on top!

Decorate the edge of your tub

with candles, more flowers, crystals, maybe colored egg shells? Just think "spring". Oh and start your playlist and put your phone up somewhere safe (don't text and do magic! Plus you might drop your phone in the water.)

You've prepped, time to start.

Exfoliate everywhereeee.

Your face, legs, arms, tummy, hips, back, booty cheeks, feet, knees, elbows, hands. just dig in and really get yourself rid of all the dead skin on your body! Imagine that you're getting that fresh new beautiful spring body out of its husk lol.

Wash up!

Wash your face with face cleanser and wash your body all over with body wash. Imagine you're cleansing yourself of negative energy.

Face mask!

Get your favorite face mask that suits your skin type and keep it on for as long as it says to. If you don't have one, they're super easy to make so google up a DIY face mask for different skin types😁 (some say use baking soda. I don't really suggest that tbh it seems harsh on the skin. Even if you have acne) imagine that you're putting good, positive energy back in place of the negative energy

Shaving! (Totally optional, some people don't shave. You're still beautiful!)

while your face mask is on, start shaving wherever you want to.

Washing your hair!

After washing off the face mask (or letting it seep into your skin, depending on the mask) wash your hair. Get it clean and rid of more negative energy!

Conditioning!

Let your favorite conditioner sit through out all of your hair for like ten mins (unless you have oily, fine hair) visualize putting that positive energy back into your hair.

Meditate if you want for a bit!

Hold your crystals (make sure they're safe to get wet) and relax. Maybe even give a little prayer to who you worship and also thank the Earth.

Collect your flowers out of the tub before you drain it and rinse them.

You can press them in a book, dry them in the oven or with a heater, throw them back into the yard to give back to nature, or decorate your altar with them while they're still fresh.

Moisturize!

Moisturize your face with face moisturizer and then use body lotion ALL over your body! Or oil if you don't have body lotion😊 now you're putting in good energy all over your body.

Perfume if you'd like!

Again, I used a floral one with rose water in it. You could add moon water to it as well or just use some essential oils on your wrists and neck.

And then if you want to,

you could do your makeup, hair, nails, etc. Just get all groomed and fixed up the way you want to.

Finally, you are done.

I have some suggestions on my blog (that I have reblogged, giving credit to other users) for crafts, recipes, rituals, and more for Ostara. You are clean and full of positive energy to continue on with your celebration!

If any of you do this, you should totally tag me and let me know how it went for you. Maybe give other suggestions on what you did differently😁

Saturday 2nd August 1828

2 ¼

12

Hurried up and to the vessel and on board at 2 ½ and off in 5 minutes misty and rather too early for the Loch (Fine), the herring fishing boats returning home at the Kyles of Bute at 6 ¼ - very fine - pass the bay of Rothesay at 7 ¾ - the white town looks neat, and large, but the hills around the bay too bare and the bay therefore does not strike me as so pretty as when we entered it in going to Rothesay - the newer toward (toward) castle (left) looks well (Wyatville the architect) and the old ruined castle more considerable perf[?]t and picturesque than I thought before - very fine summery morning not wind but cool air Loch Long in passing, looks tamer then I before fancied - even the beautiful banks of the Clyde almost seem to want boldness - 

Off Gourock speak of the loss of the Comet - people always drowned when many are in the water together, catch at one another and thus sink 1 another - but the Ayr passed fair over the place where men were struggling and the paddles killed men - it was the 1st trip she had made and all the men were drunk - perhaps therefore the Captain could not do better than he did - McAlister was an excellent swimmer and was seen on deck, but was wrapped up in [a] great coat and cloak and at any rate could not thus have swum - 

At Gourock at 10 - on inquiry find we should get into Glasgow a couple of hours earlier by getting into another boat - at 10 40/60 get on board the Helensburgh a fine large vessel and off immediately - (Burn of Edinburgh architect of the Gourock Custom house - the harbour and offing full of shipping - very pretty) - nothing but the stables of Roseneath seen - the house not finished - and the Duke laid out £60,000 - this said to give the deadly blow to the Argyl property - in the wood beyond it towards Glasgow, Ardincaple Lord John Campbell - Dumbarton castle always fine - 

Borera must have been amused - he actually never left me and we talked all the way - from a few slight hints it might be guessed the involvement of the McL-[ean] property was known and Albine’s great correspondence with Mr Sherwood &c quizzed and not universally admired - young Coll not a thorough Highlander wishes the Gaelic largely abolished and to send off the highlanders and get lowland farmers 

Borera used sometimes to wonder at his giving these opinions too freely before old Coll who was annoyed in fact the old man perhaps more liked in his day than the young man is will not go anywhere and therefore many will not go to see him a little jealousy between the Loch Buys and Colls for precedence each claiming it I think Corera leans to the former says they are more connected in the country the Colls have no connections there the present old coll the first who took the supporters Loch Buy bears supporters also doubts the right to both parties since Sir Fitzroy is the acknowledged Chief and only the Chiefs have a right. Borera does not take them but his right as good as Loch Buys or Colls the former ministerial and against Argyll interest the Coll ‘violent Whigs and Argylists and of course can get anything and thus they and Loch Buy often clash’ I said I had thought Loch Buy a bear to Miss MacL[ean] when we met - thinks Miss MacL[ean] must feel her being no longer mistress of her fathers house all seem to like her best 

Borera much recommends Arnoth’s ‘Elements of Natural Philosophy’ - quite new yet in the 3rd edition - the science simplified and shorn of all hard words - gentlemanly enough but would far rather be without him - but must play the lady and be waited on &c for Miss MacL[ean]s sake - 

Land at the Broomilaw at 2 10/60 - land our baggage before us and walk to the Bull Inn and get there about 2 35/60 - who should be there but Mrs Elphinstone and her friend - going off ? for Stirling at 3 - the former calls for a moment - bids me inquire for her in Edinburgh should I be there next winter - giving her card - ‘Mrs D. Horn Elephanstone’ everybody will know her and where she is - only one Mrs Horn E-[Elephanstone] shake hands and wish goodbye to Borera who is off for Edinburgh at 4 - so feverish and set wrong go out for an oz [ounce] Epsom salts, and take ⅔ of it at 3 ¾ then came up to my bedroom for the rest of the day and at 4 sit down to write and now at 9 ¾ have written out Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday yesterday and today - having had tea at near 8 

From six to tea time the salts worked me every minute - have parted with some hardish bits and saw distinctly the oatmeal husks I took in the oat bread at coll house have eaten none since Monday morning - wrote 1 ⅔ pages to Miss MacL-[ean] till 10 ¾ - very fine day

[Left margin: Recommended to Borera, Hallam on the middle ages give him information as to his traveling on the continent]

differentiate between flour and what type of flour to use for each pastry?

before we start, note that in the recipes for all the CAP pastries in the ebook, the flour is by default the T55. When it comes to specific flour, I indicate it in the corresponding recipe. If you do not want to become professional, I have written an ebook for amateurs, whether they are novices or very advanced, here. You will have recipes from professionals explaining everything and within your reach!

Let's start with the ashing rate which is the best-known feature. The flour is baked at more than 600 ° c. The remaining ashes correspond to the bran, the husk of the wheat. The higher the T, ash rate, the more the bran contains and the lower it is, the purer it is.

So, you have 6 types of flour and we mainly use the purest pastry namely T45 and T55. The T55 is the lambda that can be used for everything (choux pastry, pie dough, pastry, etc.).

In parallel, you have oatmeal flour. It is flour that contains 13% gluten against the usual 10% of standard flour and which therefore gives elasticity to pasta. It is therefore very good for all leavened doughs (making brioches, pastries, also usable for choux pastry) but not recommended for pie doughs. It also exists in T45 and T55.

Beware of so-called fluid flours (including fluid oatmeal) which absorb more water and which will, therefore, affect the texture and texture of the pastry. This can be the cause of the failure of pastries and many pastries. Avoid buying them when you see the term fluid unless it is for pancakes or sauces.

[beyondthetemples-ooc]

Anyways, the reason I went back to my dash. To vent.

tl;dr I have a meeting tomorrow. Boss said I could have tomorrow off, but just went back on his word. Which is especially awful now, because I’ve been struggling to keep food in my system for 5 days, and the hypoglycemia’s catching up with me.

I really don’t want to go in. But I’m going to, and whether they “let” me or not, I’m leaving for the meeting. And I really don’t have it in me to care if they disapprove, or at this point even fire me. Fine. Whatever. It would be a good riddance, anyways.

So, my old job. Basically when I put in my notice because I got the Monday through Friday office job, the boss got me feeling soft and mushy enough that I offered to stay on a few more Saturdays while working the new job.

I have a meeting with my mentors tomorrow. I told work last week that I needed either the whole day off, or I’ll have to be excused for a good chunk of the middle of the day.

He said I could have the whole day off.

Fast forward to today. Feeling like crap because I can hardly eat, hypoglycemic shakes, really heavy-feeling tiredness, generally Feeling Weak because all I’ve been able to eat was like, 1 pack of oatmeal and a handful of pomegranate arils. I can’t even sip water without feeling like I need a bowl close at hand, just in case. Not to mention, I’m in pain and nauseated as hell whether I’m eating or not, so I’m stuck in a constant lowkey phobia-triggered mode no matter what I do, and I’m jumping at the silliest things from the anxiety. It’s awful.

I just got a text from my supervisor saying they couldn’t find someone to come in, so “I need you here tomorrow”.

Going back on their word. Just like that. 

Now, I don’t consider supervisors to be a moral and ethical bunch by default. But if you’re in communication with an employee, you’d better make DAMN sure you mean what you say. Especially if that particular employee doesn’t NEED your job, and is offering you another 8 weeks of employment after finding a better job, working a weekend day alongside another full-time business-hours job, specifically to help you out because they know you’re understaffed.

Going back on your word is grounds for me losing my trust in you, especially when you’re making demands of me. And I don’t even need to comply! I will, because I could honestly use the money, and I do understand that sometimes words can get mixed up.

But if I go in, I am absolutely NOT missing the meeting on account of their miscommunication.

Update: I texted the BOSS-boss, and apparently he didn’t MEAN to give me tomorrow off. But he’s allowing me to leave for the meeting at least, which is... okay. At least I’ll only have to be in that building for 7 hours instead of 12....

Still feeling like a hollowed husk of a human being, definitely going to have a hard time coordinating for those 7 hours, and probably going to sleep through half of Sunday afterwards... They’re definitely not going to be getting my best work. But at this point, they’ve kind of lost my willingness to give it, anyways.

Coconut, An Exotic fruit: Numerous health benefits 

Coconuts are a delicious, exotic fruit. Tropical locations have a large coconut tree population. In our daily lives, they serve as a sort of elixir. 

As Jozef Behr explains that every portion of the coconut tree may provide for our needs on a regular basis. We can acquire a variety of products from a coconut tree, including ropes, milk, meat, wood for fuel, and husk for scrubbers. Additionally, coconut is loaded with therapeutic and beauty qualities. 

Jozef Clifford Behr elaborate the use of each component of the fruit: 

White meat that is still in its raw state is sweet and tasty. Many Indian cuisines, including chutney, curries, fish stews, and rice dishes, contain raw meat. 

In various meals, including cookies, muffins, puddings, and ladoos, dried coconut flesh is shaved or grated, which not only improves the taste but also promotes our health.  

In baking, ground dried coconut flesh (coconut flour) can be used in place of wheat flour. A gluten-free and carb-free alternative in dieting is coconut flour. 

Many cuisines call for coconut milk or cream, which are made by squeezing grated raw coconut flesh. 

Tender coconut water provides immediate vigor. On a scorching hot day, it may rapidly cool you down. 

Advantages of coconuts for health 

The food coconut is amazing. Jozef Behr shares some advantages of eating coconut: 

Coconut is the perfect replacement for snacks high in carbohydrates because it is low in carbs. 

It includes vitamins, minerals, and nutrients including potassium, sodium, manganese, copper, iron, and vitamin B. Our bone health benefits from manganese. 

Iron and copper support the health of red blood cells. 

Medium-chain triglycerides, which are abundant in coconut meat, give people who are obese rapid energy and encourage fat reduction. 

High quantities of the heart-healthy good (HDL) cholesterol may be found in both coconut meat and oil. 

Because coconut is low in carbohydrates and high in fiber, it helps our bodies' blood sugar levels stay under control. 

Numerous antioxidants that protect against elements causing cell damage may be found in both coconut flesh and water. The antioxidant also lowers the chance of developing several illnesses, including cancer. 

Numerous health advantages of coconuts. Add this delicious fruit to your regular routine to get all of its advantages. 

Add it easily to you diet  

Coconut gives savory meals a wonderful taste whether it is flaked or shaved. Its taste and meaty texture go nicely with rice dishes, fish stews, curries, and even fried shrimp. 

Check the ingredient list carefully and be mindful that certain kinds may have added sugar, which you may not want for savory recipes. 

Coconut that has been finely chopped is excellent for baking since it gives fast breads, muffins, and cookies a hint of moisture and natural sweetness. 

Oatmeal gets a tropical taste and texture boost with a sprinkling of raw coconut. It also makes a tasty calorie enhancer for someone trying to gain weight when mixed into pudding or yogurt. 

Wheat flour is swapped out for coconut flour for baking. It is a well-liked choice for those watching their carb intake and is nut-free, gluten-free, and nut-free. 

The flour is suitable for individuals following the paleo diet, which forbids consumption of grains like conventional wheat flour, because it is grain-free. 

However, because it doesn't rise like wheat flour and absorbs more moisture than other types of flour, coconut flour is best utilized in tried-and-true recipes. 

A great heat-stable fat that may be substituted for other oils for baking, sautéing, or roasting is coconut oil.

Multigrain Oats Benefits And Nutrition Facts

[pankajkumarposts]

An explanation of why oats are wonderful

Oats are light, tiny, and easy to overlook. Some individuals say, Blah! when they see a bowl of oats. Others murmur, waoo, as they gaze at a lumpy mush of steaming masala oats, steam clouding their blissful eyes. Are you a fan of oats? Do you know how to make masala oats and how are they wonderful for you? Discussed below is why you should swear by oats and consume more of these nutrient-dense whole grains.

The nutritive value of oats is outstanding. Inside those inconspicuous tiny hulls, modest oats hide their tremendous qualities. Oats have 6 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber per cup. Fiber is a versatile nutrient that protects us from a wide range of health issues. A cup of oats provides approximately 70percent of your everyday manganese requirements, a mineral that aids enzymes in bone production. You will receive plenty of magnesium and vitamin B1 as well.

Oats are a good source of energy. A bowl of ordinary, whole grain, cooked oats contains only 147 calories, despite its nutritional value. The fiber in the oatmeal Quaker, not the calories, is what keeps you full. Furthermore, the cereal is on the lower side of the glycemic index (GI), which is a classification of how carbs influence your blood sugar concentrations. Whenever you eat oats, your body digests and absorbs them slowly, which keeps you full, controls your appetite, and delays hunger sensations.

Oats have been demonstrated to aid with cholesterol reduction. Oats have the most soluble fiber of any cereal. This gel-like fiber passes through your intestines and may aid in the trapping of chemicals linked to elevated blood cholesterol levels.  According to research, individuals with high blood cholesterol could lower their overall cholesterol by 8 percent to 23 percent by eating just 3 grams of soluble fiber each day (a bowl of oats gives 4 grams)!

Oats are a portion of healthy food for those with diabetes. Oats' fiber helps to keep blood glucose levels stable, which is similar to how it works to keep you full. This fantastic oat characteristic is particularly beneficial to diabetics. The average person needs 26 to 35 grams of fiber each day, but diabetics require up to 50 grams. A few of the much-needed nutrients could be found in a fiber-rich bowl of oats. Just be careful not to upset the balance by topping your oats with too much sugar or even other blood glucose-spiking ingredients.

Oats help with digestion and are a good source of fiber. Oats' insoluble fiber washes along the intestines, helping to move food throughout and avoid constipation. Also, patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) might suffer fewer indications of GERD, like heartburn, if they eat a meal rich in fiber and minimal in total fat.

Oats could help to protect your skin. Somebody realized how pleasant it was to massage oats to dry, itchy, and inflamed skin at a certain point in ancient history. For years, mothers have soaked raw oats in hot showers to relieve the signs of chickenpox in their kids, and several people prepare DIY facial masks out of oatmeal, yogurt, and honey. Oats' starchiness functions as a moisture shield, whereas the coarser fibrous husk serves as a light exfoliator.

Oatmeal is only one of many uses for oats. Oatmeal is a nutrient-dense, low-cost food that may be utilized in a variety of recipes. Oats could be used in pieces of bread, cookies, pancakes, or filling; scattered on top of crumbles or fruit cobblers; dumped into a milkshake to incorporate bulk and fiber; and mashed to form flour for baking. Turn to oats whenever you need a little additional texture or power. Oatmeal could be garnished with bananas, fresh berries, honey, nuts, or seeds and comes in numerous forms such as slow-cooking steel-cut, instant or rapid oats, or old-fashioned rolled oats.

If you order oats wholesale, only order as much as you can consume in two months, as the grains are more prone to rot after that. Keep it in a sealed jar in a dry, cool, dark corner of your cabinet.

What is the Best Substitute for Oat Bran?

Best Substitute for Oat Bran? Oat bran is a fiber-rich component that works well in a variety of cuisines. It isn't particularly tasty on its own, but it transforms the flavor of baked goods such as cookies and muffins. However, oat bran might be difficult to work with in the kitchen. It's possible that you'll discover that it's not quite right for you and that you'll need to go elsewhere.

What is the Best Substitute for Oat Bran What is the finest oat bran substitute? Wheat bran is the greatest oat bran alternative available, due to its high nutritious profile and delicious flavor. Wheat bran complements almost every recipe that oat bran complements, so you don't have to worry about compatibility.

A Quick Overview of Oat Bran

Many people believe that oats are one of the healthiest grains to include in your diet on a regular basis. They are abundant in minerals and vitamins, especially when the outer hulls are removed after harvesting. The residual grain after the removal of the outer husk is finally treated during the processing step, giving us oatmeal. However, the oat bran is later found just beneath the shell. Some choose to remove it and sell it separately, while others prefer to keep it in the goods with the grain. The oat bran layer has a lot of fiber and is gluten-free, making it highly healthful. For a long time, oat bran was regarded as a breakfast cereal. However, the fiber is easy to form and may be utilized in a variety of recipes, ranging from muffins and bread to oat meals and cookies.

Why Should Oat Bran Be Replaced?

Allergies: While not very prevalent, oat allergy is a dangerous condition. At the same time, some kinds of oat bran include gluten, which may be problematic for persons who are gluten intolerant. So there are several health reasons to be cautious about oat bran. Taste differences: Oat bran has a particular flavor that you may or may not enjoy. As a result, you'll need to find a replacement. Best Substitute for Oat Bran Non-availability: Oat bran isn't widely available, and you might not be able to buy it at your local grocery shop. As a result, you'll need something unique for your recipe.

Substitutions for Oat Bran

- Wheat Bran is the best all-around substitute for oat bran. - In more ways than one, oat bran and wheat bran are comparable. Apart from the fact that they both have the word "bran" in their names, these two compliment each other rather nicely. - Wheat bran, like oat bran, has a high fiber content. Interestingly, it has a lower fiber density than many other gain husks — and even less fiber per cup than oat bran. - Wheat bran is popular due to its high nutritional content. This meal component contains a modest calorie level, as well as enough proteins, carbs, and vitamins. You also receive riboflavin, magnesium, iron, and a variety of other nutrients. - Even in little amounts, including cereals containing wheat flour in your diet on a daily basis will benefit your digestion greatly. - Aside from that, due of its adaptability, wheat bran is an excellent alternative for oat bran. It may be used in muffins, pancakes, bread, waffles, and other baked goods. If you're searching for a thickening agent for your morning cereals and stews, wheat bran is a terrific choice. - However, you should be aware that wheat bran contains a significant amount of gluten. As a result, you should exercise caution when ingesting it, especially if you have allergies or gluten sensitivity. You have nothing to be concerned about in terms of proportionality. Wheat bran is an excellent one-to-one replacement for oat bran. However, because wheat bran is drier than oat bran, you'll need to add a little more liquid. You'll be OK after you've gotten it out of the way.

Corn Bran is the best nutrient substitute.

Corn bran is another excellent oat bran replacement. It's not as delicious as oat bran, but it makes up for it with a great vitamin profile.

It has the outer bran layer and the grain layer, and its taste is comparable to oat bran, making it a good choice for folks who don't necessarily desire a change of flavor. At the same time, oatmeal has several health benefits. It contains a lot of vitamins and minerals, as well as a lot of protein and fiber. Oatmeal is a versatile ingredient that may be used in a variety of meals, from cookies and porridge to baked goods and as a bread topping. It should be noted that it is not a one-for-one replacement.
