can we get a pt2 for marry my husband where diego and reader become besties (not lovers) and they take more fun revenge until five and lila decide to beg them for mercy and to forgive them.
I disappeared guys, but I didn't die
MARRY MY HUSBAND P2
Cinco Hargreeves X Leitor
Pt 1: https://www.tumblr.com/anaargent/761465037466501120/you-know-season-4-yeah-it-was-bad-and-it-made-me?source=share
If looks could kill, you'd probably be buried under the looks Five gave you every time you interacted with Diego across the table.
After a few weeks of this cat and mouse dynamic with Five and Lila, you had had enough, your witty jokes and arrogant demeanor had run out.
"Where's my desk?" Five suddenly walked into your room. "What did you do?" He leaned against your desk.
"Uh, that old thing? The termites were destroying it, but now you can share it with Lila, you guys have a good relationship, right?" You smile and rest in your chair with your feet on the desk, watching Five huff and quickly leave the room.
"Where are my folders?" Five appears in front of you as you have a nice cup of coffee with Diego. "What? Uh, that paperwork? Diego offered to keep it since he's the leader now, so much paper is bad for your eyesight due to your age, right? I was helping you, honey." You smile sweetly.
"Anything to help you, little brother." Diego smiles and squeezes Five's shoulder before leaving.
.
What was left were lost glances in the hallway at work and an unsettling feeling. It was fun to watch Five lose more and more of the control he thought he had over everything, to see him fall from his pedestal and feel like a normal human.
Until you saw how this was affecting you more than you would ever admit, and seeing Diego trying to deal with the delicate situation of his little family broke your heart.
One day you found him sleeping leaning against the table, dry tears on his face and a photo of Lila with the children in one of his hands. You threw your coat over the unconscious man, and lightly stroked his messy hair while a sad smile adorned your lips.
- you big stubborn guy - you sigh.
That was the break. ...
"You did a good job there," Diego says as you stretch after a long day of work, the cool night wind welcoming you. "Is that a compliment coming from the great and wise Diego?" You laugh as Diego denies it.
"Just an observation," he continues walking in comfortable silence for a while on the streetlight-lit streets. "I thought about what you said... you're right."
"That's vague, I'm always right, what exactly?" You turn around as you see the man's expression become more serious. "I'm going to talk to Lila... I think we deserve a chance... for the kids... for me, for her" he says slowly "try to make things right"
You take his hand and squeeze it lightly, smiling proudly. You knew this decision wasn't easy for him, letting go of everything and trying to start over "I'm rooting for you"
"You should try too" he looks at you briefly "but not because you think you need to... you're already a Hargreeves Y/n, you don't need Five for that. You're already family, one of the best of us, don't do this because you're afraid of having no one. We'll always be here for you, you're my sister"
You sniff softly, you didn't want to show something as foolish as your crying. But Diego pulled you into a bear hug, one of those he gave Gracie when she lost a tooth. For a moment all the hard exterior was gone for something soft and cozy, and you sighed in relief at this validation.
You had a family, no matter what happened.
When you pulled away from Diego, you saw Five. At the bottom of the stairs in front of you, impassively watching the whole scene
You look for Diego, searching for reassurance. With a nod, you began to walk down the long steps of the staircase. Still feeling a little unsure and hesitant, your steps didn’t falter.
Five was still there, waiting for you. You were now in front of him, one step making you taller, so he had to look up slightly.
“I…” he spoke in a broken voice, coughing slightly in a clear sign of nervousness and tightening his tie “I messed up… damn, I really messed up and I’m so sorry y/n. I didn’t think anything could go right for me and so I found a way to push you away, I was a coward and acted like an idiot.
You remained silent, watching impassively as he searched your face for some sign.
“I guess I was alone for so long that I didn’t know how to let you get close… you’ve been with me this whole time, and we’re so much alike that I didn’t know how to let you see me… all the parts, even the ones that embarrass and scare me, I probably don’t know yet. And you are always confident and perfect in everything, that I couldn't dare to let you see..me" Five took a step back, a rare sign of uncertainty, he was scared. This was something you didn’t see every day.
Before he could move any further away, you grabbed his hand, Five froze in place, waiting for your reaction. "I don't know either, but... we can try to find out. Slowly" you look away from Five.
"so..." he clears his throat "would you like to get some coffee?"
"Hm..." you stare at him for a moment, seeing the anticipation and fear in his eyes that you've always seen arrogance and confidence "sounds good"
Five smiles, his lips stretching and his eyes crinkling. You'd only seen that smile when he finally figured out the formula to get back to his family. His eyes glinted childishly and then he gently pulled you down, a glimmer of confidence returning
"So it's a date?"
"Don't make me change my mind"

World Building Documentation: Planet Baryte
Planet Name: Baryte (N4-XZA64-B)
Planet Type: Super Terrestrial
Location: Northern Region, Quadrant 4
Habitability Status: Habitable and inhabited
Atmosphere: Standard Oxygen/Nitrogen, higher than average atmospheric pressure.
Average Day Length: 29 hours.
Capital Spaceport: Aeolian
World Leader: Baryte has no one ruler, rather Aeolian is controlled by multiple groups and families who have established a mutual albeit at times unsteady respect that keeps everything in order.
Main Languages: Galactic Common, Edusca, and Riapano.
Danger Level: High (LV 3)
Baryte is a large terrestrial planet located within the Northern Region. The surface of the planet is covered in vast expanses of barren deserts and plateaus. The second planet from its home star, it is considerably hot on Baryte’s surface. The sweltering temperatures, low resources and constant sandstorms dictating every aspect of life on Baryte. Here, only the strongest most adapted organisms can survive.
Baryte being in the Northern Region was one of the first planets hit by the Great Monster War. Nightmare Enterprises tried to lay claim to the planet and set up mining operations to harvest Baryte’s many resources including oil and aluminum for spaceship fuel. However, all attempts to set up mining facilities failed, unable to compete with the local populations. One by one Nightmare’s monsters that were stationed on the planet and sent off to find suitable spots and drive out local organisms were brutally hunted and eaten.
The project was abandoned, Nightmare just barely avoiding the call to eradicate Baryte after being convinced that possibly reattempting the claim in the future was possible. This never happened, and to this day many old factory and mining facilities are abandoned and empty in the desert, filling with sand, and being beaten down by the endless sandstorms.
It’s main capital and the first and only city to establish a spaceport is Aeolian, a city built by the collaboration of many native species (mainly sand leos) to build a large port where resources could be traded and safety from the largest and most dangerous wild animals. The buildings are large and study pillars of rock, connected by many tunnels and archways between the buildings. Many, some in a more affectionate way and others in a more derogatory sense, refer to it as ‘The Termite Mound’ due to its similarities in appearance to such. It is also where many of the docks for the sand ships are located.
After Nightmare’s defeat, Baryte finally started to be able to recover and rejoin the intergalactic community. While many are still discouraged from setting foot on the planet without reason and certainly not without proper prior research and equipment, many explorers, researchers and the particularly bold have started to come, leading to the recent development of sand boat tours.
Baryte has two moons, the larger body known as Hemati and the smaller body known as Therma.
Therma, having a noncircular orbit, undergoes extreme gravitational pulls from both Hemati and Baryte itself.
This constant pulling stresses the moon’s surface and causing a tidal effect. The solid part of the moon’s interior in turn causes a lot of friction, which would create heat-melting internal rock and lead to lava-heavy eruptions on the volcanic surface.
With so many eruptions Therma is covered in impact craters and fresh lakes of lava, visible from Bartye’s surface either by the sharp eyes of some native species or those with the proper equipment.
It is quite common for debris to be shot from the moon’s surface, pulled straight into Baryte’s atmosphere by its gravitational pull. The result is the sky being lit with the streaks of light and fire as the debris harmlessly burns up in the atmosphere. When night falls these displays only become all the more vibrant, filling the sky with many ‘shooting stars’ for the inhabitants to witness.
Avisets are perhaps one of the most well known species on Baryte, besides the sand leos.
These large humanoid lifeforms are often not seen as humanoids due to their way of living and the common derogatory stereotype regarding anyone from the Northern Region is very hostile. In truth, the scarcity of resources and the brutal temperatures, mixed with the fact that the war hit the Northern Region the hardest, has forced the natives to be very tough and strong.
The main speakers of the Edusca language, they live in large close knit communities known as septs. They are most easily recognized by their signature helmet, which they customize as a means of expressing personality and character, as well as accomplishments through a series of markings on the helmet. Avisets live in large underground burrows, dug by their own two claws and terrakinesis, both to reach hidden aquifers to have drinking water and to hide beneath the ground from the blistering sun and predators.
Being cousins of bukiset, they have origins in tool and weapon usage. However when faced with bigger and stronger predators and prey, they took these tools and started to fashion large contraptions to trap and kill their prey for them. These massive works of rudimentary technology are simplistic in concept, but allow the avisets to be highly effective at trapping. They were so effective they unintentionally stopped Nightmare from being able to seize the planet, as these traps just kept killing any demonbeast that dared venture into the avisets’ territory. Avisets spend most of their life hunting, both to feed themself and their sept, and as a sport.
It is between their traps hidden beneath the sand and their territorial behaviours that the sand boats are the safest way to travel, less you want to meet a grim fate at the end of a harpoon.
The sand boats have existed long before the business associated with giving tours on them started to boom.
Powered by a solar sail, which is less to catch wind and more to catch sunlight, the energy absorbed by these specialized sheets of dark panel covered material is sent down the cables and mast of the ship. It is used to power fluidization equipment and motors below deck, pumping gasses into the sand blow, allowing the boat to pass through the sand as though it was water.
The ship’s hull is fortified and the metal is very spiky, both serving to discourage and prevent any hostile desert animals from climbing up, protect against aviset traps it might accidentally set off passing over them, and to withstand the sand constantly grinding up against the bottom of the boat. The metal is pale, as to prevent below deck and the fluidization equipment from overheating.
The teeth lining the boat are to make the boat seem like some large animal, smaller predators are discouraged from approaching and it offers protection against larger predators. Most will attack from behind or attack from below, bursting from the sand, the spikes are excellent at discouraging this. These are actual teeth. Most people simply just find them. From skeletons of long dead creatures, or simply shedded baby teeth of the planet’s largest predators.
The anchor is less to stop the ship outright, and more to tie the ship up when docked so others don’t take it. As stopping is simple as turning off the fluidization system, and once more the sand is sand again and the boat isn’t budging.
Many locals will recommend the Dune Whisperer as the ship to go with, commanded by Captain Sand-Dee, it’s one of the safer boats to be on as it’s guarded by a sand leo and his winged egger companion. Rahil’s knowledge of the planet and its many dangers and many wonders, mixed in with Sand-Dee’s expert sailing experience, these two make a great team at tackling the barren wastelands of Baryte.

Does a Home Warranty Cover Termites?
A home warranty plan is a great tool in the protection of your home against breakdowns of your important home systems and appliances in the United States. However, many homeowners wonder if such plans cover pest-based damages, especially termite infestation. Termites are generally known to wreak havoc on structures silently. Let's dwell on whether the home warranty company in the USA usually covers terms or not and what one can do.
What Is a Home Warranty?
A home warranty is a service agreement guaranteeing or paying for damages or fixes or even replacement of home systems and house appliances arising from normal wear and tear. Such a plan ensures peace of mind at a worthy cost by counterbalancing the hefty cost of repair. Generally, coverage features HVAC systems, plumbing, electrical systems, and major appliances, such as refrigerators or washers.
Why Termites Damage Is Challenging?
Termite infestations are something that falls within pest control or structural damage, not quite like a mechanical breakdown or system failure, and most standard home warranty policies in existence today across the United States do not cover issues with termites. As termite infestations are considered to be avoided through preventative maintenance and proper pest control operations, they fall outside of what a home warranty would normally cover.
Why Home Warranties Don't Include Termite Infestations
The main reason why home warranties do not provide coverage for termites is that warranties were designed to repair mechanical failures-structural or environmental problems, not pests. Termite infestation has been deemed a homeowner's responsibility to monitor and control, and termite prevention more frequently requires than regular checks and proactive treatments outside a warranty vendor's base of experience.
Other Options for Termite Protection
Although termites aren’t typically covered by home warranty companies in the USA, homeowners still have options:
Termite Bonds. Some pest control company offers termite bonds. It is a service contract, purchased specifically to forestall or treat termites. These mostly have annual inspections with treatment if necessary.
Homeowner's Insurance Add-Ons: While standard homeowner's insurance also does not cover termite damage, some insurers offer add-ons or riders for structural pest damage, including termites.
Professional Pest Management Services: Investing in a pest control service is a good strategy to prevent termite infestation and deal with problems immediately.
Selecting a Good Home Warranty Program
Whereas termites are probably not covered under a home warranty, you should look for a full package with your needs in mind. Elite Home Warranty is excellent when it comes to flexible and customized home warranty plans in the USA. We have an entire list of home systems and appliances covered to give our clients the best protection and service possible.
Conclusion:
Even though termite damage is not covered normally, a home warranty would be a huge help in guarding your house's major system and appliances. For pest-related issues, just consider other options like termite bonds or pest control services instead. Meanwhile, get your home systems covered by teaming with a reputable home warranty company in the USA like Elite Home Warranty.

On Disappearing, BY MAJOR JACKSON
I have not disappeared. The boulevard is full of my steps. The sky is full of my thinking. An archbishop prays for my soul, even though we met only once, and even then, he was busy waving at a congregation. The ticking clocks in Vermont sway
back and forth as though sweeping up my eyes and my tattoos and my metaphors, and what comes up are the great paragraphs of dust, which also carry motes of my existence. I have not disappeared. My wife quivers inside a kiss. My pulse was given to her many times,
in many countries. The chunks of bread we dip in olive oil is communion with our ancestors, who also have not disappeared. Their delicate songs I wear on my eyelids. Their smiles have given me freedom which is a crater I keep falling in. When I bite into the two halves of an orange whose cross-section resembles my lungs,
a delta of juices burst down my chin, and like magic, makes me appear to those who think I've disappeared. It's too bad war makes people disappear like chess pieces, and that prisons turn prisoners into movie endings. When I fade into the mountains on a forest trail, I still have not disappeared, even though its green façade turns my arms and legs into branches of oak. It is then I belong to a southerly wind, which by now you have mistaken as me nodding back and forth like a Hasid in prayer or a mother who has just lost her son to gunfire in Detroit. I have not disappeared.
In my children, I see my bulging face pressing further into the mysteries.
In a library in Tucson, on a plane above Buenos Aires, on a field where nearby burns a controlled fire, I am held by a professor, a general, and a photographer. One burns a finely wrapped cigar, then sniffs the scented pages of my books, scouring for the bitter smell of control. I hold him in my mind like a chalice. I have not disappeared. I swish the amber hue of lager on my tongue and ponder the drilling rigs in the Gulf of Alaska and all the oil-painted plovers.
When we talk about limits, we disappear. In Jasper, TX you can disappear on a strip of gravel.
I am a life in sacred language. Termites toil over a grave, and my mind is a ravine of yesterdays. At a glance from across the room, I wear September on my face, which is eternal, and does not disappear even if you close your eyes once and for all simultaneously like two coffins.

They're a couple things going on here that are very annoying the next door messing with the message system they say they're horrendous pain and what they doing works in the system but you don't need it here cuz Stan activated it. And they keep saying it needs it and is very very annoying is Dan wants to mess it up cuz he has a plan to kidnapper my husband and he is a retard okay this guy is stupid they need out of here or we control the situation more including bothering us less
-couple of the things are happening they're going after people very hard as we said but they're using law enforcement and now they're starting to use private investigators and they're using detectives and we have to do it too so we are invading and we're infiltrating it's an absolute must and these guys are dangerous and these people and they're getting arrested everywhere so the threatening my husband to get to us and people see it and it's working a little bit and they do see that too so we're coming in now they're doing it yesterday and Tommy F warn people so he's saying it to yours but we see it a little dicks could you use normal terminology and said this is you guys and it started laughing again.
-and there's a huge number of things but they said it in p**** too and BG didn't get it and he said they're big but it looks a little bit big they said oh s*** yeah
-there's a huge number of people out here who have attitude problems because some are going out but really they're doing that couple other things we have a fire alert and there's a lot of dry wood out there in the forest and they can't pull it out I did fall over in the storm and my husband said we should pull it out of there and there are ways to do it it's only pine and it's kind of crappy wood but you can grind it up and you can use it for fuel for the plant they actually need it at the incinerator and Matt wants to do it he says you hire a couple login companies and you start working and see if it works that's all and melt it up. So he's trying to get a program going and he can't seem to get any loggers for some reason I'm not sure why they're not doing anything we have a couple walking companies so I sent it over this morning and I said can we help you with something these two for us here we could log out in about 3 days each and only with a few pass and yes the logs with the smaller vehicles and he said yes that's good and you wanted a price so I'm working that up and I said that I am it's great work he said and Olympus did too and we're going to get it out of there and grind it and not pelletize it just grind it and it comes out like sawdust and it packs down hard and it comes out like blocks really have to rip it out like blocks kind of and they throw it in there and it really gets that thing going and they store it nearby inside a warehouse that's dry and they spray all the time they spray the stuff then they spray outside then they spray the stuff and against termites and ants. So that's going on now
-and we're trying to get it out this other stuff they are planning on doing but the rest of the states are doing the tree removal and they're doing the brush removal and they're also clearing the canals and they're ripping out buildings thus far they're ripping out buildings in fort Myers Naples estero Cape Coral Bonita springs all the way down to the Everglades City and there's not much there they ripped a few out and they want building demolition to occur and we're giving them estimates on doing it on wrapping it on putting the pads on it and doing nothing about it they like the pads theyve already got enough damage. And he recommends the new mats because they can be reused and they assemble fast once you have the thing rigged it's done and pull them out and a few hours and then the debris is removed in a few hours and the whole thing's gone in a couple days or 3 days so they're going to approve it because that's how long it takes he said how it works is amazing that someone would figure something out like that even though it seems simple and the chain link machine works great and it links them together it says big huge wide machine and then it gathers it up and it rolls it a little and that's how they're shipped no it shipped in Mass but they're full in mats it's a great thing just invented at least you should have it but he came up with a wrap out there and I see what it is he's doing a little bit better but we have to watch it
-and once that starts with no it's begun the whole Southern southwest coast up to punta Gorda and part of punta Gorda and they will rip out houses there in a couple buildings too and really doesn't take long right now I hear the mulching and the removal of the brush is almost complete and removal of the boats is about 90%. Then couple big ones they're trying to get them out of there in one piece and they're blowing around it and they're going to fill it with air bags and lift it with a crane it's a hell of a job it takes time if anyone's doing it takes time but they're getting him out and then they'll be done soon like two more channels to clear and then it will start dredging and my husband says maybe we can get Max down there to clear a few canals to get dredged since they're clear why say is you're right and have him focus on a few so he's going to take a look at it and have his guys tell him and Mike too says he knows which ones to do right now and he's going to have him focus on it and it's a good idea is that water is just continuously coming and it's going to flow through there real quick so it's a good idea for all the stupid septic backs up.
-now the rest of the state is getting done and they're bringing more and more down every day and probably at 70% of things are being worked on and today they state they're bringing down enough for the rest and I think it's like 20%. It's a lot of equipment and we're providing some of it most of it's coming from up North and they might need it again they needed it recently so we're bringing you down to equipment and we don't need in the midwest now and we're asking Mac what else he needs down here and he says everything I said well just give us a wagged each area so he gave up an estimate of each area and we're sending it all down it's a good idea and he wants to get going on the harbor he says you can't really do that right away it says it's a must this whole area will flood with us any and we'll see what it is and we'll keep trying to get it there and heat it up we're not going to sneak that thing in there besides you just have to dredge the canal and tourism is here is going everybody's on the dumb boat so he says this that's a good idea and excuse and you have to start the river we have to do the river it says you're right about something that river is a mess you need those big treasures so he's getting going on that and he wrote it up this morning anyways and they're getting people out it's going to be a giant giant dredging job and nobody knows it'll stink real bad and they're going to try and dredge the canal here too the channel that is a harbor so crap can go out there the dreaded again but really it's going to be a lot of material taken out and brought to see and my husband says without the channel how deep is the channel if George she says it's only like 9 ft it says no the bottom is like 18 ft and you can fit a small boat in there or a ship so can you put the poop in and then bring it out by ship and then come back to the barge loaded up come back out I have three three pieces of he says why cuz then you keep that thing dredged and that's the excuse and he says oh and you get it out probably faster than by land this is wow that's a good idea so he's looking at that. And people are saying the bugs will go after that but they're going to go after a barge worse and you have to get it out of there and it has to go to see and where you going to drive it all the way around even smaller like fishing vessels would work or anything with a tanker a tankers and smaller tanker they have those two out here so she put a request in for something that would fit in Charlotte harbor as a ship that you could fill up with muck so I did that and we have a few old ones and we're going to send them down and they're $120 ft long and take like four loads to get the barge that's going to use some Peace River usually put on the side and they bring it to the middle but it's really rancid human s*** as well as animal and they can use it on other stuff but really someone has to go out there it's going to be way too much and the whole harbor has to be emptied so people say it's a good idea and we're moving on all this
-now these guys are in the way of all that and it's obvious they're a huge problem and people going after them now
Hera it's tough we got through it it's not that tough I was able to do some stuff to get it done and I agree with you you have to be able to have more to say and we're going to say it soon enough and thank you all for listening
Zues
Olympus we proved this message and as written and is well written and well done these things are getting done and they're helping and they're making it move faster we really need it this place is a disaster and it's a worry and Tommy f is going to start threatening his storm stuff and if we had one now to be a disaster here so we're going to push it along and we're going to help get those two canals going and Mike too is helping and we have some push to it it's good and it almost all the degrees out as an update it's like 95% and about 89% of the boats still there are many boats are like five bolts and they're huge so we counted them as a larger percentage it's true the amount of debris they're about 80 ft long and I thought about cutting them up cuz they're still but they can be used and as a matter of fact they can haul that knock out muck out and see if the morlock can figure out how to put a motor in real quick so you do it all the time they come to the muck hauling they like to contaminate they'll be thinking they're contaminating stuff it'll be off by 100 yards and we'll think all this s*** let me get these massive hives they're the ones to get those hives

5 Benefits of Removing Dead Trees from Your Yard
The animal kingdom will not survive without trees. They release oxygen, stop soil erosion, reduce water pollution, shield us from high temperatures, transform solar energy into glucose, support wildlife, and are essential for water conservation. They can also be used to beautify a piece of property- especially residential ones.
However, if they are dead, then you will not get any benefit from them. Instead, they will create unnecessary problems for you. So, if you have a dead tree in your yard, get rid of it at the earliest possible time.
Here’s why Getting rid of a Dead Tree Is a Great Idea
Benefit #1- Protection against pests
As soon as a tree dies, it becomes a sanctuary for pests. Ants, bees, wasps, cockroaches, termites, flies, fleas, moths, caterpillars, and rodents will make it their home. Their number will grow quickly. And, if you don't do something about these unwanted guests, they will make a mess of your property. This should be more than enough reason for you to get rid of dead trees in your yard. If you are looking for some more reasons, read this blog post all the way through.
Benefit #2- Protect other vegetation
That's right… by removing dead trees you are protecting its surrounding vegetation. As we have already discussed, a dead tree can attract pests. Sooner or later, the population growth of these pest species will go out of control. When this happens, the surrounding vegetation is the first to be affected. So, that one dead tree has the potential to ruin your entire environment. That’s why if there is a dead tree in your backyard, don’t take it lightly. Before it can pose a significant threat to you and your property, remove it.
Benefit #3- Prevent it from falling on your house
If you don’t remove a dead tree from your yard, it may fall on your house at some point. And, believe us… such an event can be extremely dangerous for you and your family. You can get hurt… or even die because of such an incident. Even if you survive such an incident, the cost of repairing the house will be very high. The point is that by leaving a dead tree in your yard, you run the risk of endangering not just your finances but also the lives of your family members.
Benefit #4- Improve your property’s aesthetic value
Yup… this is another major benefit of getting rid of dead trees from a property. Trees have aesthetic value and can enhance the appearance of a piece of property. They can considerably raise a property's marketability, beauty, and monetary value. However, dead trees can ruin the aesthetic value of a property by turning it into a mess. They encourage pests to set up shop by luring them. As the population of these pest species grows, they can damage surrounding vegetation and your house- which will ultimately hurt your property value.
Benefit #5- Prevent infectious diseases from spreading
Immediately after dying, a tree will start to decay. A decaying tree can attract pests. Some of these pests are completely harmless and cause no harm to humans and other organisms. However, pests like mosquitoes, flies, and fleas may carry parasites such as plasmodium falciparum and plasmodium vivax.
Just in case you didn't know, these parasites are responsible for malaria in humans. And, according to WHO, about 6,00,000 people die of malaria each year globally. In addition to human-specific parasites, a rotting tree can attract microscopic organisms that can destroy surrounding plant species. Don't let a dead tree rot; this will stop the growth of all these microscopic organisms.
These are a few benefits you will get by removing a dead tree from your yard. So, if there is a dead tree in your backyard, get rid of it as soon as possible. It is not an easy thing to do and therefore should be left to experienced professionals.
Long Story Short…
Trees help us in many ways. They create oxygen and glucose; both of which are essential for our survival. However, once a tree dies it becomes a burden. It can reduce the aesthetic value of a property. So, if there is a dead tree in your yard, get rid of it right away. You can reach out to a professional tree removal service provider in your locality to make that happen.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here, so I’ll just look at the link (published by a natural gas company, so caveat reader) and unpack it:
Natural gas, which primarily consists of methane, is the cleanest burning fossil fuel.
This is true, but note the caveat: fossil fuel. No other fuel sources are considered in this comparison. So the truth of the matter is largely resting on the fact that other fossil fuels (oil and coal, in general) are significantly polluting when burned.
When methane is produced from non-fossil sources such as food and green waste , it can literally take carbon out of the air.
The caveat here is key: “non-fossil sources”. Termites eating coal is absolutely a fossil source. And there’s an implicit assumption that all this methane is captured. (More on that later.)
Also, “literally take carbon out of the air” depends on the assumption that the control case is “food and green waste rot and release carbon dioxide into the air.” Which is tenuous when you’re talking about biofuels where you plant more corn (for example) than you need for food, in order to ferment it to get methane. If you didn’t grow the food, maybe the extra carbon would have stayed in the ground in the first place.
Methane provides a great environmental benefit, producing more heat and light energy by mass than other hydrocarbon, or fossil fuel, including coal and gasoline refined from oil, while producing significantly less carbon dioxide and other pollutants that contribute to smog and unhealthy air.
Again they’re only considering fossil fuels.
This means the more natural gas is used, in place of coal, to generate electricity or instead of gasoline to fuel cars, trucks and buses, the less greenhouse gas emissions and smog related pollutants are produced.
You’d think fossil fuels were the only true root source of energy; no nuclear, solar, wind, or hydro. And again, there’s an implicit assumption of perfect handling and no leaks. Speaking of which…
However, methane that is released into the atmosphere before it is burned is harmful to the environment. Because it is able to trap heat in the atmosphere, methane contributes to climate change. Although methane’s lifespan in the atmosphere is relatively short compared to those of other greenhouse gases, it is more efficient at trapping heat than are those other gases.
Bingo!
And while there are natural processes in soil and chemical reactions in the atmosphere that help remove methane from the atmosphere, it is important for all human activities that contribute methane to the atmosphere to be conducted in ways that reduce their methane emissions.
These processes are so slow compared to our carbon emission rate, you may as well drop them from consideration. Same with the carbon cycle where the oceans pick up carbon, it gets incorporated into shells, organisms die and the carbon falls to the floor, and eventually it forms sedimentary rock or gets sucked into plate tectonics.
This includes the development of processes to capture methane that would otherwise be released to the atmosphere and use it as a fuel.
And the easiest places to do that are at the point of generation. Even better would be to emit something easier to sequester than carbon dioxide. But oxygen just doesn’t play nice like that in combustion.
For example, methane from waste water treatment plants or dairies can be captured and used as a fuel to reduce the amount of methane entering the atmosphere as well as reduce dependency on fossil fuels.
But how well does that process work? Does it emit elsewhere more than it recovers? (I’m eliding the other real issues such as “will wealthy people pay the extra taxes to pay for this recovery, because it is inhere unprofitable and the rest of us sure can’t afford it?”)
Anyway, nothing on the termite process specifically. Carbon already sequestered in coal is not going to contribute to methane pollution if you leave it alone. Which is hopefully an option, unless one lives in a batshit-insane-logic world where all coal must be excavated and burned as a borderline-religious necessity, such as West Virginia.
Biofuels are an area where the math gets really iffy, but can look wonderful if you ignore a couple terms in the equation.

A COURT OF LIGHT AND SHADOWS
Chapter 1: Voices
Read at AO3.
Gwyn's afternoon couldn't get any worse.
First of all, the morning's training had been horrendous.
Three weeks after the Blood Rite, Cassian and Azriel had thought it was time to start practicing again, since according to them, they had made a lot of mistakes that could very well have cost them their lives.
She was still alive, just like Nesta and Emerie, so at least one thing they had done well, survive.
After 3 weeks of not doing any sports, it was noticeable when you came back with all the energy, especially on a day where the sun was literally burning.
She noticed as she did push-ups that morning how her arms were trembling dangerously, the sweat running down the curve of her breasts, soaking the shirt she had worn.
Gwyn had promised herself that she would go out into the outside world.
That year she had made a lot of progress, she supposed she should be ready to enter society again, but no.
After the events in the Blood Rite, what she wanted was to lock herself in the darkest corner of the library, with a good book, and stay there to live.
Obviously, she couldn't do that. But she would have liked it.
With all the sore muscles, having failed almost all the obstacles the two Illyrians put them, showing a regrettable endurance in each and every one of the exercises, she had to go down to the library to have a pleasant chat with Merrill, who did not understand why her performance hadn't been 100% in recent weeks.
"I don't know, Merrill. Maybe because they pulled me out of bed against my will, left me in the middle of a forest full of Illyrians, while I had to fight to stay safe, as well as having to kill people? Maybe because I had never left the library after Sangravah, and I suddenly found myself in the same situation? " She reasoned, trying to control her pulse, having remembered the events in the Blood Rite.
She detested Merrill.
More than anyone else, she hated her. She often thought that life would be so much easier if people like Merrill just didn't exist.
After leaving her a ton of work to do, the female disappeared, leaving Gwyn with about seven books resting in her arms, already numb from the morning exercises.
She ran to the nearest table, relieved when she put the books down, with a thud.
She rubbed her dazed hands, wincing at the pile of books that awaited her to spend hours and hours together.
She had to research one of Merrill's new obsessions, the ancient and forgotten Prythian gods.
"I didn't even know they existed", she opined, opening a random book to a random page, flipping through the contents.
She got dizzy from so much information she did not understand, closing the pages with force, grabbing a cart that was nearby, leaving the volumes in it and going to her room, to calmly read those pages and pages of useless information, and then do a chapter-by-chapter summary for Merrill.
"Great, it's a good way to spend your free time if you love reading junk." She groaned as she carefully lowered the cart down the stairs.
"It is not junk. It is information that may be useful at some point", answered her subconscious.
At least she thought it was her subconscious.
She didn't remember when she had started to hear that voice, just one day it had appeared, and now it was considered the voice of reason.
Everything that voice said, it was true.
"I know, but I don't know how knowing which are the main and forgotten gods of Prythian is going to solve my problems." She attacked, greeting one priestess that came close to her, passing by her side.
The voice fell silent, apparently it had nothing more to add.
At least Gwyn could answer the voice in her mind. It would have been a strange thing to see a person argue with herself.
Upon reaching the room, which was a simple square with a bed, a wooden desk with a wooden chair that had more splinters than wood itself, and a modest closet, also made of wood.
Yeah, in summer the termites would destroy all the furniture if she wasn't careful.
Closing the door with the latch, one of the little luxuries she had on it, she put the books down with a thump, brushing her hands on the skirts of the gown, which was already heavily encrusted with dust.
She thought of taking off that long dress, which after so many washes the initial blue had ended up in an almost invisible gray, but she did not feel like going to the common baths of the priestesses, because every time she went there, they peppered her with questions about the Blood Rite.
And the last thing she wanted to do was talk about it.
So she collapsed on the bed, pulling back the covers and hugging the pillow with one arm, as she got into a fetal position.
"You have to go out, you can't hide in the bedroom all afternoon." It protested, to which she responded very kindly with a growl as she turned, trying to make it understand that she was going to do whatever she wanted.
"Alright then. If you get caught between the sheets and can't get out, don't come running to ask me for help." it threatened.
Gwyn didn't know how she was going to ask for help to a voice. It was disembodied, how the hell was she going to beg for help if she didn't even know what that murmur was?
She rolled over on the bed, rubbing her eyes and exhaling, disappointed.
She hated not being able to get out of that damn room.
She hated her insecurity and her irrational fear.
"It is not irrational, Gwyn." It assured her.
"Leave me alone." She begged, getting it to shut up.
She lay on her stomach, breathing deeply.
She looked at the time on the only clock in the room, located above the closet.
19.36.
It appears that she had a lot of time to do absolutely nothing.
Maybe she was going to pick up a book that Nesta and Emerie were reading.
Honestly, she was dying to sink her teeth into one that had caught her attention. According to her description, a maiden sent by the gods fell in love with her bodyguard...
Determined, she bolted upright, unlocking the latch, happily heading for the book.
There would be time to examine the books Merrill had passed her.
Anyway, she had a lot of time, reading something that interested her was not going to do anything bad to everyone.
With a broad grin, she made it to the fiction book section. She opened one of the books, tucking her nose between the pages, an exhale escaping from her lips when she smelled the wonderful book scent.
Her gaze sparking, she searched for the novel she was looking for.
"Didn't you forget something?" It asked.
She stopped short in the middle of the shelves, alarming a passing priestess.
Bowing her head in apology, she went back to searching, her eyes narrowing as she searched the thousands of spins with her eyes, finding none that bore the name of the book she was looking for.
"I don't have any errands to deliver to Merrill." She snapped, frowning when she finally found it.
It was at the top of the shelf.
She made a long face, standing on her tiptoes, stretching her arm as far as she could as she stuck her tongue out, focused.
"I don't mean Merrill, Gwyneth."
"Mysterious voice, what are you talking about?" The priestess demanded in a tired voice. She did not arrive. Why did they make the shelves so high? It was not possible that someone could reach them.
Although, don't get it wrong, Gwyn adored the voice. It was equal to the voice that we all have within us guiding us.
The problem was that the voice that she had was a little… annoying.
She looked at the shelves next to the floor, no books in sight.
Maybe if she got on them…?
She put one foot on it, skipping little hops as she judged whether the bookcase was going to fall or not.
Realizing that it was unlikely, she lifted her other foot, raising her heels as much as she could while she stretched out her arm, feeling her muscles go numb.
A little more ... just a little more ...
"You remember that your friend Nesta has a mate, right? And that you promised them that you would go to her ceremony?" As soon as she finished the sentence, Gwyn stopped.
Shit.
Seriously, had she forgotten that?
"There is still time… There are five days until the ceremony." The voice tried to calm her down, but nothing was going to do it now.
She jumped down from the shelf, as she began to walk from one place to another, in circles.
She had to go.
She couldn't do that to Nesta.
"I don't even have a dress. What am I going to wear?" Alarmed, she slightly stretched the strands of her coppery hair, thinking of a way to solve all the problems that had suddenly befallen her.
I have to leave the library to go to the mating ceremony.
I have to leave the library to go to the mating ceremony.
The female began to hyperventilate, forgetting the book that she had held less than 3 centimeters from her hands.
That was far more important.
"I can't tell Nesta that I forgot about her mating ceremony. I can't do that to her." Gwyn protested, running her hands over her face, rubbing her temples angrily, forcing herself to search for solutions and solutions and solutions.
But neither of them was going to work.
She had to get out of there, no priestess was going to leave her a suitable dress for the mating ceremony.
But she couldn't go alone. She did not dare to go down to the city alone.
Emerie couldn't help her. It had started the illyrian high-selling season and the illyrian needed the money. She only went to training, then she quickly returned to her store, not staying a minute longer than necessary.
Cassian and Nesta were completely out of the question.
Azriel...
"Ask him." The voice advised.
She needed to name that voice. She could not continue calling it "the voice", that was beginning to be uncomfortable.
"Maybe he can help you get the dress." It continued.
Would it be male or female? Or rather, what the hell was it?
"Are you listening to me?"
She definitely had no idea what it was.
"What are you?" Gwyn questioned, curious as she left the fiction section behind, walking aimlessly through the library.
She loved to wander aimlessly through the thousands of bookshelves, silent priestesses, the whisper of books her only company.
Besides that voice, of course.
"Have you heard anything I've said to you in the last two minutes?" Her voice roared.
"I've heard nonsense, so no, I haven't heard anything." She claimed. "But anyway, you haven't answered my question. What are you?"
"I am everything and I am nothing at the same time."
Now was it was being funny with her?
She rolled her eyes, annoyed "That is not an answer."
"It's an answer if you know how to interpret it." It answered.
She rolled her eyes again.
"Well, at least tell me what I can call you, it's uncomfortable to think of you as 'The voice'" She asked.
The voice fell silent, which she thought meant the end of the conversation.
She decided to head over to her room, assuming she should start Merrill's work, until 'the Voice' answered her.
"Elián"
Gwyn stood in the middle of the bedroom hall
"That is your name?" She asked.
"My real name would burn your lips if you were able to pronounce it" It replied. "But yes, Elián is my name, and I am 'him', I have noticed how you struggled because you did not know if I was a man or a woman. The definition of gender is much more complicated than that, but it will be enough".
"G-Good." She answered.
Elián was quiet at last, leaving her with her own thoughts, as she opened the door, her own scent of jasmine feeling welcoming.
And the proposal he had made, although obviously she had ignored it, she was not wrong to consider.
Perhaps the Shadowsinger would help her out, aiding her finding a decent dress for her.
She closed the crank behind her, sitting on the small bed, wondering if it would be smart to ask him, risking him saying no, or not asking him and risking not having a dress for the ceremony.
Sighing, she figured she should go to the bathrooms to get the sensation of dust - and the dust itself - off her body, so she grabbed change clothes and headed there, deciding at that moment that tomorrow she would ask the Spymaster if he could accompany her to buy a dress.
Inside her, she could feel Elián nodding his head, giving his approval.

hi i’ve got more of that bug fables roleswap au for people to peruse! this time, it’s largely focused on some side characters, some of which was a collaboration between me and my beloved friend @behold-a-bastard-in-this-house ! go check him out :-)
as always, under the cut is spoilers for the entirety of bug fables! similarly, this covers similar themes to what’s covered in bug fables, so if any of those bug you, take care of yourself!
the swaps covered here are: maki & kina swapping with zasp & mothiva, and general fuff swapping with vanessa! as with the central three protagonists, it gets a little more funky from there, in the nature of telling a fun and fresh story AND preserving major & important parts of their original personalities and backstories!
ZASP & MOTHIVA AS MAKI & KINA
specifically here, zasp is maki; acting as elizant ii’s royal blade and going out on top secret missions for her. the layers i particularly like here are seen in canon: when asked about the wasps, zasp refers to them as “pests,” and for reasons currently unknown (but likely related to him having damaged antennae, etc.) he isn’t affected by the wasp king’s crown at all! the trust elizant ii has in him extends past the possibility of him being controlled or betraying her, which i VERY much like as a general (hand waves) background theme
the reason why i considered this swap to begin with was because mothiva and kina kinda reminded me of each other! and in a way, so did kina & zasp, but i felt this particular swap was more fun. i think mothiva keeps her idol status, here; most of the time she’s complaining about how zasp can’t accompany her as a body guard to her shows anymore, or about how he keeps leaving her behind (”a top secret mission would be GREAT for exposure!!” which is largely why she doesn’t end up going with him, lmao)
i also think that both of them are significantly further in their character development than they are in canon, though? mostly because: without zasp as her right hand and supporter all the time, mothiva has to actually deal with anyone who rejects her personally, and The Queen Herself supporting her is very good for her ego already! meanwhile zasp actually has a healthy level of seperation from mothiva and can foster that relationship without it fully starting from somewhere parasocial, lmao. i simply like this for them a lot!
MAKI & KINA AS ZASP & MOTHIVA
this one’s a little bit of a (handwaves) stretch of the canon role, so stick with me here!
i think maki & kina are more experienced explorers who have been trying at every step of the way to find the artifacts, and kina (and by extension maki) are more than a little annoyed that team snakemouth keeps getting to all of them first! i think maki largely thinks that they shouldn’t be out there to begin with - leif was BANNED from exploration for a REASON, after all, even if he IS proving efficient at artifact collection, and kina is annoyed that her and her brother aren’t getting the recognition they deserve!
this leads to the same threads you see in canon: maki & kina attempt to interfere at golden hills, stating that team snakemouth isn’t strong enough to take on whatever’s at the top of the hills, and that they’re destined to fail. this is then followed by the two interrupting in the termite kingdom - the queen is right there, after all! if they can prove that team snakemouth isn’t strong enough to defeat them, then they’ll be able to prove themselves and go after the artifacts themselves, even if this is jeopardizing bugaria.
a key difference here is that maki & kina actually regret their actions in termite kingdom! what you see there is a personal apology to the queen and an acknowledgement of what could’ve happened after they realize - no public apology to team snakemouth though, haha, outside of maki pulling them aside later.
maki saves kabbu from a near death experience :that one confetti discord emoji:
THE FUFF & VANESSA SWAP
once again a big thank you to my friend fall for being the huge brained genius behind this swap!!
the conceit of this swap is that general fuff manages to escape the wasp king’s control from injuries sustained in a long-ago battle, while vanessa doesn’t. she starts acting as a false figurehead leader to the wasps, and has a similar battle gimmick to ultimax, in which she is always hiding behind her troops! (in canon, she even says that she’s never done combat for her kingdom - something that is still very true here!)
meanwhile, fuff is locked up - his focus is mainly on strategy, too, and while he’s brilliant at it, he has no people to lead, no army to plan around. while he could probably fight the capture, he doesn’t actually want to hurt his soldiers - we are a STRONG believer in actual good leader fuff when not mind controlled here! he manages to steal the flame brooch before he’s captured, though, hoping to use it to take down the king; although this fails, the king doesn’t realize he’s stolen it, and in her mind controlled state, neither does vanessa!
fuff, when broken out, proceeds to offer to help elizant ii plan defenses and battle against the wasps and the wasp king, and is the one to give team snakemouth the flame brooch before the giant’s lair. vanessa does get a tank. you LOVE to see a girlboss winning
that’s all for this post!! this was once again very fun to write out and explain; if you have any questions, just shoot me an ask about ‘em :-)
