i say 'my dragon self' when talking about a physical feature I may have on my kintype, or in a specific way where it is something particular to me individually, such as: My dragon self had a scar on the back of the neck, my dragon self's favorite thing to do was chase fish, or 'as my dragon self' referring to a particulararity of mine when I am a dragon.
'My dragon body' I rarely use but this is more in reference to the biomechanical process in my dragon self's form, so the "meat" part of the self or in direct relation about the phantom limbs and sensations and muscles of my dragon self overlaid in my human self
him/it or 'the hater' or 'that guy' i use in direct relation to refernce how my dragon almost meta contextually is a separate version of myself that has different eants and desires for my human life. So it wants me to get the steak for dinner, he would rather I be outside in the dirt than working on a computer, 'the hater' may be ready to spit fire in an argument or start some random beef with someone over feeling wronged and wanting to retaliate and show them the ego of a real dragon, hah, which is I think a little bit differently from how I want to act as a person, so that's why I may say "that guy" isn't happy about working late in a dark apartment, or it really loves eating fruit. This is a reference to NOT a headmate, jut the part of my dragon self that holds the personality of myself from the dragon side
which is of course.. not to be confused with "my dragon brain" which is something I refer to my neuro differences by. I think I have specific neuro or chemical differences in my brain that cause me to feel this way or connect with this side of myself. I have severe ADHD and when it gets bad, it gets so bad that it feels as if I am an animal again and I can't function with the brain if an animak that can't comprehend or the reptile software isnt abke to run on the hardware of a human. My "dragon brain" is effectively what others might call the "lizard brain" and I am very very in the classical sense "lizard brained" where my brain cannot engage with planning or emotional conceptialization for some states
'the dragon' I use this one in a spiritual sense to connect with the mystical ties that I have, to whatever this feeling is, being a dragon. The dragon feels like it's responsibility is to protect this canyon. The dragon gathers power from the storm. The dragon is alight within me. the dragon is alive.
I don't have a name as a dragon, words didn't mean anything to me as a dragon.
How do you reference yourself when speaking about your identity?
Constantly saying "my coyote theriotype" or "my dog identity" is so clunky and tedious, and also just feels weird and wrong. My dog identity is me, but if I just say "my identity" it's not specific enough since I am multiple creatures and I often want to speak about different parts of myself in specific.
When I'm thinking in my head or journaling I most often reference my identities as "my dog" "my werewolf" "my coyote" and so on. Which I guess is also still not perfectly accurate, seeing as my identities aren't really a separate part of myself (save for my werewolf on occasion. It's a whole thing). But it's easy, and it reflects the fact that different aspects of myself are not constant.
ie: my dog is often more intense when it rains, or my coyote really enjoyed laying in the dirt, my wolf loves when it's cold out, etc, etc.
For me, it's just a quick shorthand way of saying "X thing heavily impacts, triggers, is innate, or is associated with X part of myself, as opposed to impacting or being associated with my overall animal existence.
I'd be curious to see what language others prefer to use for themselves!

The Most Effective Weight Loss Diet is the MIND Diet.
The MIND diet aims to stop cognitive decline and dementia as you age. What you need to know about the MIND diet is provided here.
The greatest diet for weight reduction is said to be the MIND diet, which stands for Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay. It focuses on food categories that can enhance your brainpower and shield it from age-related issues like Alzheimer's disease, making it a bridge between the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) and Mediterranean diets.
Everything you need to know about the MIND diet and how to follow it is included in this detailed book.
Understanding MIND diet
The MIND diet's suggested parameters include an emphasis on minimally processed plant-based meals while excluding animal-based foods that are heavy in saturated fats and added sugars. Also recommended by the diet is portion management.
Ten food categories are recommended for consumption on the MIND diet, while five should be avoided. In general, you should have 3 servings of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables daily, 1–2 servings of legumes, chicken, and fish once or twice per week, and daily snacks of nuts and berries. Olive oil is promoted as a healthy source of fat in the diet as well as for cooking.
While meats and dairy products are not required in your diet, the diet suggests consuming them in moderation, no more than four times each week. The diet proposes swapping it out for the crucial for brain health beans and legumes, which are high in protein.
The following foods should get prioritized in the MIND diet:
Green leafy vegetables
All other vegetables
Berries
Nuts
Olive oil
Whole grains
Fish/seafood
Beans
Poultry
Avoid or limit the following foods:
Cheese
Red meat
Fried foods
Sweets and pastries
Prior to starting your weight reduction journey, it is a good idea to choose a weight loss consultation with a seasoned weight-loss specialist. An professional in weight reduction can comprehend your body and create a diet plan just for you.
Benefits of the diet
The MIND diet's suggested food categories are rich in fibre and a number of dietary components that have been found to enhance brain health. These are what they are:
Vitamin E
Folate
Omega-3 fatty acids
Carotenoids
Flavonoids
It has been demonstrated that the MIND diet enhances brain health and lowers your risk of dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and other age-related cognitive losses. Studies show that eating the right meals and avoiding the bad ones can postpone brain ageing by 7.5 years.
Including an estimated 5 million sufferers, Alzheimer's disease is presently the sixth-leading cause of mortality in the US. The estimate is that there will be more than 7 million by 2025.
According to a study of 1,300 older persons who followed the MIND diet, those who adhered to it to the letter had a 53% lower risk of getting Alzheimer's disease. Those that somewhat followed it experienced a 35% decrease in their probabilities.
Should I try the mind diet?
Whether you have a family history of Alzheimer's disease or other cognitive issues, the MIND diet is a solid, healthful diet that has shown encouraging outcomes for general brain health.
The data thus far suggests that the MIND diet is a beneficial food approach for your long-term health, while further study is required to determine its full range of advantages. Even if you go out to eat, it's not too difficult to follow and modify recipes. The diet emphasises entire foods, and keeping track of your daily caloric intake is not necessary.
Before beginning the MIND or any other diet, it is wise to schedule a weight loss consultation with your healthcare provider to see if it is a good fit for your health.
To Conclude:
The MIND diet delays the decline in brain function that comes with ageing and prevents dementia. It encourages the eating of fish, poultry, beans, vegetables, berries, nuts, whole grains, and wine.
Numerous nutrients in these meals support brain function, maybe by lowering oxidative stress, inflammation, and beta-amyloid plaque development. According to preliminary studies, following the MIND diet is associated with a decreased risk of Alzheimer's disease and a more gradual decline in brain function over time. To completely understand the consequences of the diet, additional study is needed. The MIND diet is regarded as the finest weight-loss diet in America by many people.
Future studies may reveal that the MIND diet offers additional health advantages linked to the Mediterranean and DASH diets because it is a combination of these two diets. But for now, the MIND diet is a terrific choice if you're searching for an easy eating plan that prioritises preserving brain function and losing weight.

Make it Double | JJ Maybank
Pairing: JJ x Reader
Summary: You’re a Kook, who was introduced to JJ by Sarah, and you’re so similar to each other it’s like having two JJ’s around. The Pogues are slowly going insane from your antics.
Warnings: none
Distancing yourself from the Kooks to hang out with the Pogues was probably the best decision of your life. You were so fed up with the stuck up rich kids from your side of the island that meeting new people was like finding gold at the end of a rainbow. Or at the bottom of the ocean. You had always been a bit of an outcast amongst Kooks, only truly getting along with Sarah and managing to maintain civility between everyone else. You just weren’t good at acting prim and proper. Being with the Pogues allowed you to let loose.
They were hesitant to open up to you at first, which was understandable considering all the shit Topper and the other boys continuously put them through. Eventually, though, they came to realize that you were not a spoiled brat who couldn’t get their hands dirty.
The first time they realized this, you were drunk, so it kind of didn’t count. There was a party at The Boneyard, but instead of assuming your usual spot with the Kooks, you were dancing with Sarah and the Pogues. JJ was making sure that your red solo cup stayed full, until he grew a conscious and decided that maybe it wasn’t the best idea to give you alcohol poisoning. So you were throughly drunk, even when the party was beginning to wind down. The Tourons were getting called back to their hotels and the Kooks wanted to hold an after party in the comfort of their three story homes.
Since the Pogues had hosted, it was also their job to clean up, but you were not having it. You wanted the party to go on forever! JJ was closest to you, so you snag him by the arm and dance backwards towards the water. He smirks, letting you pull him away, dancing slightly to your imaginary music.
“JJ!” You begin, and then pause to let out a burp. “Let’s swim!”
JJ’s smirk transforms into a full-fledged grin as you turn around and start running (stumbling) towards the water.
“Little Kook wants to swim in the freezing cold water with all her clothes on?” He questions, but moves his feet to match your speed. “If you say so!”
“No! JJ!” A voice calls out from farther up the beach, which you recognize as Sarah. Her warning is too late, though, because you splash into the water, with JJ right on your heels. You didn’t seem to care that your clothes were going to be absolutely soaked, traveling deeper and deeper into the water until you actually had to swim to keep your head above the surface.
“JJ, she’s drunk! Come back!” Another voice yells, your hazy mind is slowly able to decipher that it’s Kiara. You call her name, your hand shooting out of the water to wave at her, but you couldn’t wave and swim at the same time. The lack of control over your body movements plunges you under the water, but a firm hand grabs your arm and instantly hauls you back up. When you surface, all the Pogues are yelling things like “Jesus, JJ!”, and “come back, now!”.
“She’s fine, I’m holding her up!” JJ hauls you back to shore, making a show of his hand holding onto your arm. You laugh and agree with him, too drunk to fully comprehend why everyone was so concerned.
—
The second time, you were fully sober and could actually attest to your actions.
“Are you sure that she’s gonna be cool with fishing in the marsh?” Pope questions, looking to Sarah for an answer. Everyone was loading up John B’s boat with enough supplies for a full day out on the water. You had texted Sarah earlier that day wanted to hang out, but she had already made plans with the Pogues, so naturally she asked if you could come along.
“Yes, Pope, I am totally confident in that fact that she can handle being on a boat.” Sarah deadpans, staring at him disapprovingly. She understood why the group was reserved towards you, because from the outside you came off as ever Kookier than her. You came from a large family, a descendant of old money, meaning generations have gone by without anyone having to work a single day in their life. You never liked to talk about it, but you were much richer than her. It seemed like after years and years, you were the first one to break the mold of your family and actually care about something other than wealth and reputation. Unfortunately for you, your family’s reputation had tainted yours from the moment you were born.
“We know, we’ve seen her on very expensive boats.” JJ snorts, digging through the cooler of beer that Kiara had brought.
“Then what’s the big deal?” Sarah argues, looking to John B for backup. “You guys accepted me! She’s not really any different.”
“No offense, Sarah, but her house could put yours to shame.” John B adds, extremely unhelpfully.
“You know what? I’m going to invite her, and you can see for yourselves that you’re all being ridiculous.”
After about a half hour of being in the marsh, the Pogues realized that they were being ridiculous. You weren’t grossed out every time John B dumped a net full of fish straight onto the boat, in fact, you were actively helping. Kiara and Pope had taken to reading and listening to music, sprawled out on the back half of the boat, away from where JJ was trying to chase you and Sarah with live fish.
“JJ! Stop! Ew!” Sarah squealed, attempting to use John B as a shield. To her dismay, he reached down and picked up a fish as well, turning on her with a mischievous grin. “No, not you too!”
She called your name for help, but you were too busy being cornered by JJ. You didn’t know what he planned to do to you if he actually caught you, but you weren’t too keen on finding out. So you dart to the left and scoop up a fish of your own, trying not to shiver from the slimy texture of it between your fingers. JJ looks at you in surprise as you discreetly tilt your head towards Sarah, who had resorted to running to Kiara for help. JJ nodded, understanding what you had in mind, and turned towards Sarah as well. With his attention drawn away from you, you released your fish back into the water, feeling a bit bad for keeping the whole net just laying on the deck for so long.
Sarah screams out something about being betrayed, noticing that JJ had let you go, and that you were doing nothing to help. Fortunately for her, you weren’t planning on a single betrayal, but a double. You run across the boat, the fast movement making JJ and John B turn towards you. Sarah takes the opportunity to grab John B and push him off the boat, who latches onto her and drags her into the water with him. When you head for JJ, he already knows what you have in mind, so he captures you in his arms before you can push him and jumps off. When you surface, you can see Pope and Kiara looking at the four of you judgmentally. You laugh them off and start sparring JJ in the water.
—
If you were a bit of a Kook outcast in the beginning, you were completely ostracized now after choosing Pogues over Kooks for months. Even your family started to notice that you would go out with friends and come home “looking like you were from The Cut”, which, to be fair, was exactly where you had been. But you didn’t like their tone, and spent less and less time going to Kook functions. Pogue life had made you a complete wild card.
You couldn’t hide the fact that you were a Kook, though, but you weren’t trying to. It was quite obvious because of your clothes, your phone, and the car that you drove. You simply liked to think about the resources you had access to as a way to help the Pogues if need be.
Once the Pogues looked past your rich-kid exterior, they realized that you were very much like them. And then a certain Pogue started to like you. As in, like you. It was JJ, of course. You both found it easy to be around each other, and more often than not whenever one of you did something a little questionable, it was because the other was spurring them on. When you and JJ were together, you were an unstoppable force that the Pogues struggled to control.
“Guys, please, don’t break anything.” John B sighs, watching you and JJ play fight while he stood in the kitchen, making a peanut butter sandwich.
“We won’t!” You assured him, not wanting to disrespect his house or anything in it. You blocked a “punch” from JJ and swiftly ducked under his arm, laying a “punch” of your own into his abdomen. He gasped and stumbled backwards in fake pain, and you took the opportunity to kick him in the leg. JJ’s leg fights with yours, swiping you off balance. You yelp, realizing that you’re actually going to fall, but JJ reaches out and catches your arm just in time. You open your mouth to thank him, but the only thing that comes out is another yelp when he picks you up and slams you onto the couch.
There’s a loud crack, and suddenly the couch drops out from underneath you, dipping at an unnatural angle.
“Dude!” John B cries out, taking his mediocre sandwich and running over to you. You climb off the couch to assess the damage yourself.
“JJ, why’d you throw me like that!” You accuse, shoving him to the side. He fights you off and annoyingly bats you on the arm.
“I didn’t think you’d break it! How heavy are you?” He retorts, dropping to the ground to look underneath the broken sofa.
“Sorry, John B.” You sigh, squeezing his shoulder. You also take the chance to kick JJ again while he’s down.
—
Kiara’s dad had offered everyone the leftover food from The Wreck, so that’s where you all went to feast for dinner. You’d offered to take them out somewhere for fun, but they all felt strangely about accepting things like that from you. It made sense, but you wished that they wouldn’t view it as a handout. Everyone sat in silence, enjoying their food and each other’s company. The silence was broken when a French fry hit you on the cheek.
“JJ.” You start, not even bothering to look up from your food to see if he really was the culprit. “We’re in a restaurant.”
Quite the hypocrite, you pick up the fry that hit you and throw it back. It hits him right in the forehead.
“Guys, please, don’t start.” Kiara warns, mostly pleading with you since JJ was a complete lost cause. You nod, your days of etiquette training in the Kook academy wasn’t for nothing, and fixed JJ with a glare. He got the message and returned to eating his food, leg pressed snugly against yours.
“You two are going to get us in serious trouble one day.” Pope states, shaking his head as he munches on a carrot stick.
“Hey, at least she has a good effect on JJ. Look at him, he’s quiet as a mouse.” Sarah teases. You snort and JJ rolls his eyes. Both of you have heard this conversation before.
“In my defense, she instigates!” JJ throws you under the bus and you gasp incredulously.
“Me?” You object, ready to argue about who’s the real troublemaker in the relationship. All of the Pogues groan and complain, but the fondness in their eyes show that they’re happy to have you.

Here’s another bonus chapter for The Time it Takes to Fall! This little snippet was in the original Epilogue. When I wrote this story I wrote the Prologue, then the outline, and then this scene! Of course it was different then, seeing how I changed the ending, but it’s the general gist of that scene that always stared at me from the bottom of my google doc. Anyhow, I couldn’t not publish it, so here it is! I hope you enjoy it...
Goodbye ”You’re leaving?” Thorne asked, squinting up at Cinder through whatever haze of alcohol hindered his vision. “But why? Where are you going?”
Cinder let out a sigh, slumping her body forward, resting her hands on Thorne’s desk so she was eye-level with him. She’d been dreading telling Thorne that she was leaving, and she wasn’t entirely sure why. Perhaps it was because she was the only person who actually worked in this garage, or because she was the one who most often covered for him when he was too drunk to function. Or maybe it was because he was the only actual friend she had ever had.
“I’m gonna travel the world,” she said, unable to stop the slight sight that tinted her voice with the words. She still couldn’t believe that it was true— that she was going to leave this town and see all the places she had only been to in past lives. It still felt almost like a dream; but no, Kai was real, and so was everything that he had ever told her.
“How?” Thorne scrunched his brow, looking truly puzzled.
Of course he would be confused, seeing how Cinder made hardly enough to stay afloat; but times had changed. Kai, though sometimes not the best in terms of his critical thinking skills, was practical. He’d invested in banks years before she, Cinder, was born, and through all those years his account had grown. There wasn’t a place in the world they couldn’t visit, and there were so many lands they wanted to see.
“I’m traveling with a friend,” Cinder said slowly.
“What friend?”
“Stars, Thorne,” Cinder huffed, pushing herself back from the desk. “Why do you even care? I’m leaving, and that’s all that matters. I’ll finish my two weeks but then I’m off.”
“Wait wait wait,” Thorne held up a hand. It quivered slightly. “Slow down, Cinder. Geez, I just wanted to make sure you’re okay. You know, last time we talked you told me that your boyfriend thought he was some long lost prince of China or something whacko like that. And you left early due to a family emergency. How did that go?”
“Fine,” Cinder grumbled, rubbing a hand across her face and surely dirtying it. “My mother died, and I’m planning on visiting my sister this weekend. And where Kai is concerned, that’s none of your business.”
“None of my business?” Thorne shrieked, causing Cinder to jump. “What the hell do you mean it’s none of my business?”
“I mean,” Cinder growled, nostrils flaring, “that you are not involved in this— I don’t have to tell you what I’m doing with my life. We worked together, and now we don’t.”
“Oh, so it doesn’t matter that you wanted my advice last time. Little Cindy has everything figured out, and can’t be bothered to tell her friends why she’s leaving. Are you in trouble? Is something going on? I can help you, kid, if you’re in trouble-”
“No,” Cinder whispered, all her anger abandoning her in a second. “Everything’s fine. I’m not in trouble. Actually, I’m going with Kai, and–”
“What?” Thorne roared, standing up from his seat and stumbling a little, placing his hands on the desk to steady himself. “You’re telling me that you’re running away with crazy-pants? Do you want to be on the next episode of Dateline?”
“It’s not like that,” Cinder said, crossing her arms defensively over her chest. “It’s- it’s-”
“What’s it like?” Thorne asked, stepping around the desk and placing a hand on Cinder’s shoulder. “He hurt you? Because I’ll-” Thorne stumbled a little bit, throwing his other hand on Cinder’s other shoulder. “I’ll knock his face in.”
Cinder grabbed Thorne’s wrists and pushed him back until he sat upon the desk. It was rare that he was this drunk at work; it must have been a rough night.
“It’s not like that at all, Thorne,” Cinder grumbled, shutting her eyes for a moment, then glaring at Thorne. “And besides, it’s none of your business.”
It was strange how gaining the memories of her past life had changed her. She wasn’t a different person, but rather a more detailed version of herself. She wasn’t scared, as she once had been, and no longer was she equipped to handle the dramatics of most mortals. In fact, it was hard to communicate with those she had once known in this life— they just didn’t understand her. She couldn’t fathom how Kai had made it through all those years without anyone for company other than that heinous fish deity.
“Cinder,” Thorne sighed, “I just want to make sure you’re okay— I worry about you, kid. I truly just don’t want you to get murdered.”
“Thanks,” Cinder huffed, rubbing the bridge of her nose. “I really appreciate it Thorne. Really. I just– I don’t know if you’d really understand the circumstances.”
“Circumstances?” Thorne asked, leaning forward.
“We’re getting married,” Cinder mumbled, voice low.
Not an instant later, Thorne was on his feet again, his eyes ablaze as he sputtered, “That bastard knocked you up, now didn’t he? Oh aces and spades, I’ll kill that little psycho for you. I will–”
“There will be no killing of my dearest love,” Cinder hissed, throwing her hand over Thorne’s mouth to stop him from shouting. “This is a consensual marriage; no one is– is knocked up, and no one is being coerced, and no one gets to have an opinion on whether or not it’s a good idea other than Kai and myself!”
Thorne stared at her, and Cinder knew that if her hand weren’t covering his face he would be slack-jawed. Never before had she been so firm with her points— so sure of herself— but times had changed. She was a new woman—er, old woman?—and no longer did she take crap from anyone, especially someone slandering Kai’s name.
“We talked, Thorne,” Cinder explained, checking over her shoulder to see if any of the other employees were listening in. As per usual, they were all engrossed in their tasks, not caring about Thorne’s drunken dramatics. “We figured things out, and we love each other. We’ve decided to get married and travel the world together. We’re happy— I’m happy.”
Thorne leaned away from Cinder, allowing for her hand to drop from his mouth and down to her side. “Well if you’re happy and okay, then I guess that’s all that matters, now isn’t it, kid?”
“Yeah,” Cinder smiled, a bit sheepish. “It is.”
“I’m happy for you,” Thorne said, unable to look at her. Cinder could see a mistiness in his eyes. “I will miss having you around though.”
Cinder patted his shoulder, trying not to laugh as she watched Thorne. It wasn’t that she found the situation funny, it was that she wasn’t entirely sure how to deal with this. Of course she’d realized what Thorne’s friendship meant to her, but she had never known that her friendship meant anything to him in return.
“I’ll miss you too,” Cinder said, wrapping her arms around herself. “But hey— I’m still here for another two weeks, so it’s not like this is goodbye.”
Cinder glanced out to the front of the garage and saw a familiar face smiling at her. Cinder grinned in return, unable to help the flutter within her chest. The mere hours away from him had been too many— she couldn’t wait to be in his arms once more, and feel him against her and know that they were finally together after so many years apart.
She gave Thorne one last pat on the shoulder, hardly comprehending his verbal goodbye to her as she walked away.
Kai held his hand out to her, and Cinder took it, standing up on her toes to kiss him before they walked out into the rain together, away from Thorne and the garage, and all the world that was not them.

Give & Take | Chapter 9
pairing: kacchako
genre: slowburn/fluff
words: 4.5k
summary: Ochako's grades are slipping. Bakugo is dangerously nearing suspension, or worse, expulsion. A certain twist of fate pairs them together for tutoring sessions. He teaches her math. She keeps him from getting suspended. A simple exchange, but what if this only brings them closer than necessary?
header credits: @alexbenedetto
[READ ON AO3]
Chapter Eight
Chapter Nine: Mornings with Bakugo
Ochako was a morning person, the kind who purposefully wakes up before the sun does just so they could witness the day start. She had always loved early mornings back at home since it gave her the chance to cook her parents breakfast and see them off to work soon after. Getting a head start to a new day was a principle and routine she had stood by before her father got hurt on the job.
Ever since her father’s injury, Ochako somehow morphed into the night owl she never thought she’d become. Despite this, the only reason you would catch her up late at night was either because she just got off of work or because she was finishing up some homework, both being tasks she was not too happy to do. She rarely got the chance to enjoy being a morning person, since late nights would require late mornings, which were much different from the early mornings she used to love.
Today was a blessing. Ochako had spent her entire Sunday holed up in her room to study for all her subjects, finishing all of her homework early on before it gets the opportunity to steal away precious hours of sleep later at night. Those precious hours, she made sure to spend them wisely by actually sleeping early that time.
Ochako takes another crunchy bite of toast, looking over to watch the first rays of sunshine spill from the rows of tall, glass windows. A soft, honey, morning glow bathe the dorm’s kitchens, tables, and common area. She takes a deep breath, basking in the comforting silence of the empty dining hall. She closes her eyes and groggily smiles into another sleepy bite of her toast, It’ll be awhile before I get a time like this again.
“Hey.” A familiar voice huffs.
Ochako drops her toast and almost jumps off her seat, a surprised squeak escapes her as she whips her head to see Bakugo standing beside her. He had both hands tucked in the pockets of his sweatpants, red eyes peering down at her waiting for a response.
“God,” Her whole body sags in relief as she brings a hand up to her chest, “You almost gave me a heart attack.” She breathes out.
His eyes narrow, the rest of his expression unchanging, “What’s the derivative of cosine?”
Ochako tilts her head as her eyebrows knit together in confusion, “Good morning to you, too?”
“You’re still not answering the question.” He says impatiently.
The cogs in her mind have yet to completely wake up in order to fully function and comprehend what’s going on. Bakugo doesn’t usually wake up until much later so why the sudden change in schedule? Ochako rubs her tired eyes to double check if she’s seeing things right, but alas, Bakugo was still standing in front of her, proving that she was in fact not hallucinating.
“Wait, what is this again, exactly?” She asks.
His lips curl in disdain, “What does it look like I’m doing? I’m obviously quizzing you.”
“At six in the morning?” She hears the morning rasp in her voice. How, where, and when did he get the idea of doing this on the earliest crack of dawn and on top of that, how is he managing to not sound or look like someone who just woke up?
“So?” Bakugo prods, one eyebrow raised.
“I’m barely awake, Bakugo.” She says hoarsely, her words slow and steady much like how a person still coming out of sleep would sound like.
Two seconds hardly pass after the last syllable of her sentence when Bakugo swiftly leans towards her until their faces are mere centimeters away from each other.
“Hey!” Ochako yelps, hastily leaning back before their noses could touch.
“You look pretty awake to me, round face.” He deadpans, the space between their faces still a finger’s width apart.
She places both hands on his chest to push him away, which unfortunately didn’t do much since she might as well be trying to move a statue, “Okay, jeez, I get it!” Her face turns to the side to hide the deep shade of red flooding her cheeks. “Personal space, Bakugo, have you heard of it?”
“Answering the goddamn question, have you heard of it?” He fires back, finally stepping away to give her some room to recover.
“Fine,” She drags her fingers through her unkempt hair, Ochako’s self-consciousness wasn’t awake enough for her to care how haggard she looked in front of him, “What was the question again?”
Bakugo folds both arms across his chest, “Derivative of cosine.”
Ochako looks away for a moment, squinting her eyes in concentration as the tiny Ochakos in her head scurry about in her head rummaging for an answer. Her eyes find their way back to his expectant ones once she has the right one, “Negative sine.”
Bakugo nods, walking away to head for the kitchens. A sigh of relief escapes her lips as she thanked her lucky stars that she somehow managed to give the correct answer without being a hundred percent sure of it.
She picks up the piece of toast on her plate, taking another bite while her eyes follow Bakugo’s movements as he moved around the kitchen, grabbing some items from the fridge and cupboards. His back was to her as he settled in front of the stove, grabbing a pan in preparation to cook a meal.
Ochako’s thoughts wander to more obvious questions such as why Bakugo was up this early in the morning when he usually wakes up around the same time Kirishima does, which was much later than now. Bakugo was the type to sleep early, so maybe he had coincidentally woke up and got hungry the same time as her today? Did she somehow mess up her alarm’s volume, accidentally setting it off on full blast, thereby waking Bakugo up since they’re on the same floor? No, that’s not it, she would have woken up the entire fourth floor if that were the case.
She drops the thought soon after, deciding that it was none of her business. Her eyes shifted to Bakugo once again as she took another crisp bite of her toast. From afar, Ochako notices the dampness of his hair, its usual explosive nature had it spiking through every direction, but now they were more down than up. He must have just gotten out of the shower before he got here.
Ochako’s gaze drop to the shape of his back, his muscles flexing as Bakugo reached for one of the spices on the top shelf. It was easy to look at since his tank top left the skin on his arms and most of his back bare. She wonders how much of his free time was spent training since it would certainly take a lot of time to sculpt and tone muscles like his.
Her eyes widened as she realized how inappropriate her thoughts were getting. She shakes her head free of those unnecessary thoughts, bringing her attention back to her breakfast and calls out to him, “So was that the last question or...?”
“No.” Bakugo says, setting his spatula aside, “I’m quizzing you the whole damn day, round face.”
“The whole day?” She sputters in disbelief. Ochako had thought that this was just something he planned on doing this morning.
“What did I just say?” He bites. She doesn’t need to see his face to know that he was frowning, she could already hear the scowl in his voice.
“When?”
“When I say so.” He says with finality. Bakugo turns around, holding two plates of the meal he had just finished cooking. She had expected him to move past her to sit at one of the tables behind her, but instead, he places his meal beside hers and takes the seat on her left.
“Um, Bakugo?”
“What.” He asks through a mouthful of rice.
“Why are you sitting next to me?” Her question was out of genuine confusion and had no intention of sounding rude, but it seemed to come off that way nonetheless.
“The hell kind of question is that?” He bites, shooting her a nasty look, “You got a problem with me being here?”
“No!” She shakes her hands nervously, “It’s just that, um, you usually sit over there.” She says sheepishly, pointing to the tables behind them.
Bakugo’s eyebrows draw together, his lips twisting to a frown, “I can do whatever the hell I want and I--” He scoots his chair nearer to the table in protest, “feel like sitting here.”
“Why--”
“What’s the derivative of negative cosine?” He interrupts.
“Sine.” She instinctively answers.
“Good.” He says, returning to his meal. Ochako chooses to do the same since he had made it quite clear that he wasn’t answering any more questions from her. She thinks about how Bakugo could have done this whole quizzing thing of his during their sessions instead of breaking off of their regular tutoring schedule. Come to think of it, Bakugo and her don’t usually interact that much outside of their sessions, so him eating breakfast with her is definitely something new.
Ochako hears a strained yawn coming from the staircase and sees Kaminari stretching his arms in the air. He walks past the kitchens, eyes widening to the size of saucers when he spots the both of them. Kaminari’s face morphs to that of someone who had just uncovered the holy grail, his mouth forming the beginning of a sentence only to be interrupted by Bakugo.
“Keep walking, Dunce Face.” He hisses, eyes not leaving his plate.
Kaminari turns to Ochako and she shrugs as if to say, “I don’t know what’s going on either.”
He walks towards the couches, wide, questioning, eyes still trained on both of them, “That’s all your gonna eat?” Bakugo asks, pointing his chopsticks to the piece of bread on her hands.
“Yeah?” Ochako’s breakfast had always consisted of the cheapest alternative, but it’s not like she was starving herself. She thinks back to days when she’d be eating costly food like tuna and salmon whenever she’d receive an especially good tip from patrons the day before. Ochako’s mouth waters at the memory.
A pair of chopsticks place a helping of fish on her plate, “Tch, You’re an idiot if you think that’s gonna last you through the day.” Bakugo sneers.
“Oh, you don’t have to.” She quickly tries to decline, that is very expensive looking fish.
His eyes stare daggers into her soul, “Do you really want to argue with me about fucking fish?” He snaps.
“No, but--”
“Then just take the damn thing already, Jesus.” Bakugo grumbles.
Ochako hears a faint squeal coming from behind them. She turns to see Mina with Kaminari peeking from the couches, both of them whipping their heads back to the television as soon as she catches them staring. When did Mina get here?
She directs her attention back to the meal before her, unwrapping the spare chopsticks on the table before starting to pick the fish apart.
“You’re doing it wrong.” Bakugo suddenly bites, his face scrunching up at the sight of her work.
“No, I’m not.” She protests. She was just preparing it just as she’s always done before and as far as she knew, there was nothing wrong with it.
“Yes you fucking are.” He argues, “You start here and work your way to the tail.” Bakugo's arm brushes over hers as he leaned towards her, pointing to the back of the fish’s head to its tail. He turns to her, “Got that?”
“Yeah” She mutters, ignoring the slight contact of skin. Ochako does as she’s told, working her way to the tail. She takes her first bite of fish and her eyes widen twice her size, “This tastes amazing.” She takes another bite before turning to him, “How did you do that?”
She knew he could cook, but she didn’t know he was this good at it. She scarfs down another couple bites of his cooking, her taste buds bursting with joy and delight.
“Why the hell do you look so surprised?” Bakugo’s face scrunches up in confusion, “It’s basic ass seasoning.”
Ochako can’t help but close her eyes and smile as she savors every single bite with gusto, “Weirdo.” Bakugo mutters with a bewildered expression on his face.
She starts to debone the rest of her fish under Bakugo’s guidance when she hears another strained squeal from behind them, this one being louder than the last. She turns to see that the couches were now occupied by Kaminari, Mina, Kirishima, and Sero, watching them as if they were a newly opened attraction at the zoo. Kirishima slaps his hand to his mouth as four of them whip their heads back towards the TV.
She feels Bakugo bump her shoulder, “Focus.” He snaps impatiently, “You’ll end up choking on a fucking bone if you don’t do this properly.”
Both of them eventually finish their breakfast, with Ochako making a conscious effort not to get distracted by their peeking audience. Bakugo collects his empty plates, standing up from his seat, red eyes landing on hers.
“What’s the derivative of tangent.”
Ochako sighs, “Secant squared.” I almost forgot about that one.

“You two have gotten really close, Ochako, ribbit .” Asui observes, sitting beside Ochako’s desk, Hagakure in tow. She didn’t notice her approaching since she was preoccupied with a practice question on her textbook. Yes, I study during free periods in between classes, sue me.
“Who?” She asks.
“Bakugo.”
“Oh no, not really.” She replies dismissively, “We don’t really do much other than argue and study.” She chuckles nervously. She wasn’t lying, the only reason why they seemed so close was the fact that they were studying together, no more, no less.
“He literally ate breakfast with you!” Hagakure squeals, her uniform bouncing up and down in excitement.
“Come on, Hagakure that doesn’t mean anything.” She looks away, her hand scratching the back of her neck.
“It does when it’s Bakugo!” Hagakure insists.
“She’s right,” Asui agreed, “Bakugo usually sits alone during breakfast ribbit.”
Ochako shakes her head in response. It was just breakfast, there was no subliminal message between two people eating together, plus Bakugo probably just sat next to her so he could do his little quizzing plan with ease.
“You should see the way he looks at you all the time!” Hagakure adds, her skirt vigorously swishing from side to side.
“With annoyance and distaste?” Ochako quips. She couldn’t exactly recall a time when Bakugo had looked at her fondly or even longingly, so it's puzzling for her to be hearing such claims from her friend.
Before Ochako could add to her argument, she’s startled by a voice that booms from the back of her seat, “Oi.”
She whips her head to face the frowning blond behind her, “You have got to stop sneaking up on me like that, Bakugo.” She exhales.
He squints his eyes at her, ignoring her remark, “The limit of one over x.”
Ochako narrows her eyes right back at him. This was the eighth time, probably more, that he had come up to her unannounced to randomly quiz her. He wasn’t even asking questions at this point, it was just an unfinished statement waiting for her to fill in the missing blank, “X is approaching what?” She asks.
“Zero.” He continues to stare her down, as if to pressure her into spitting out the wrong answer.
She lifts her chin, immune to his intimidation tactics, “The limit doesn’t exist.”
Bakugo nods and wordlessly heads back to his seat. Ochako only then notices the dumbfounded looks on their classmates’ faces.
“Is this a new kind of flirting I haven’t heard about?” Kaminari asks, eyes shifting back and forth from her to Bakugo.
“I don’t know, looks pretty hot to me.” Mineta shrugs, leaning against Kaminari’s desk.
“You’d think a lamp post was hot if we put a skirt on it.” Kirishima retorts, giving Mineta a genuinely concerned look.
The purple-haired student crosses his arms in mock offense, “Oh shut up, I have taste.”
Boisterous laughter erupts from Mina and Jirou, both girls’ arms grabbing at their sides as Jirou almost falls from her seat, “He says he has taste!”
Thankfully, the spotlight shifts to Mineta, away from her and Bakugo, as he continues to defend himself. She glances at his direction to see that his eyes were already trained on her, an unreadable expression hanging on his face. Ochako quickly turns away to face her friends once more, sputtering a new topic for them to talk about. Despite this, Hagakure’s words still echoed from the back of her mind.
Ochako had definitely seen the way he looked at her.
---
The resounding ring of the lunch bell marks the end of fourth period. Ochako put away her books and started to make her way out of the classroom when Midnight suddenly calls her to the teacher’s desk.
“Yes, Ms. Midnight?”
“Uraraka-san, would you please be a dear and bring these papers to Aizawa,” she gestures to the stack of paperwork bundled in her arms, “I have to rush over to a meeting with Principal Nezu in five.”
“Of course!” Ochako takes the papers off her hands without hesitation, a bright smile stretching over her face, “I’ll bring it to him right away.”
“Thank you so much, dear.” Midnight purrs. Ochako gives her teacher another warm smile before heading outside, “Fabulous job on your essay by the way!” She calls out from the classroom.
Ochako looks back at the grinning brunette, “Don’t tell anyone, but I gave you an A plus!” She adds, bringing a manicured finger to her lips as she winked at her.
She chuckles at this, Midnight had said that quite loudly for someone who meant for it to be a secret, “Thanks, Ms. Midnight.”
Ochako rushes to the hallway to catch up to her friends. She nudges Iida with her shoulder since both of her hands were occupied as of the moment, “Uraraka! There you are!”
“You guys can go ahead without me,” she gestures to the bundle of paperwork she was carrying, “I’ll be at the teacher’s lounge for a bit.”
“Sure, we’ll be waiting.” Deku says, offering her a small smile.
She musters an awkward, tight-lipped smile before heading towards the other direction. Ochako had only gotten a few steps in before feeling a tap on her shoulder. She turns to see Bakugo, fierce, red eyes zeroing in on her once again.
Ochako was somewhat glad to know that he had learned to not sneak up on her anymore.
“Cosine of pi.” He says flatly.
Her lips curl into a smirk, “Negative one.”
“You guys are the weirdest couple ever.” Kaminari announces as the rest of Bakugo’s friends caught up with him and as if on cue, both him and Ochako objected.
“We’re not a couple.”
“Aw, they’re so in sync!” Kirishima gushes, “You sure you didn’t rehearse that beforehand?”
Bakugo sends a spine-tingling glare to the redhead’s direction, “Kidding, kidding.” He says, laughing nervously.
Ochako turns to Bakugo, “Got anything else you want to ask?” She urges. He might have another question ready to throw at her for all she knows.
“Yeah, what the hell is that? ” He barks, gesturing to the stack of papers in her arms.
“Let me rephrase,” She began, “Got anything else you want to ask nicely?”
Bakugo rolls his eyes, “What’s that?” He asks through grit teeth. All three boys behind him bring their hands to their mouths to stop themselves from laughing, “Shut the fuck up.” Bakugo hisses at them.
“Some papers for Mr. Aizawa,” She smiles, satisfied with the change in his tone, “and speaking of, I gotta go.”
She turns to Bakugo, “If you have any more questions, you know where to find me.”
Ochako quickly waves them goodbye as she briskly walked towards the faculty room’s direction. It wasn’t a long way from where their classroom was located, but the journey felt like forever because of the weight on her arms. This was a heavy stack of papers.
She finally reaches her destination when she feels another tap on her shoulder. Ochako half expected to see Bakugo’s frowning face again, but she turned to see a tall, lanky boy with a seemingly crooked nose smiling at her, “Uraraka, right?” He asks.
Her eyes shift to the shorter, pudgier boy beside him, then back to the lankier one, trying to recall if she knew them, “Yes?”
“It really is you!” The shorter one beams at her.
Ochako smiles nervously, “Can I help you?” Her eyes were still shifting back and forth between the two boys, her mind trying to figure out why they looked so familiar. Had she seen them before at the sport’s festival? Or maybe walked past them in the cafeteria one time?
“This is Shintani,” The tall one gestured to his friend, “And I’m Kai.” He turns to her, still smiling, but something about the glint in his eyes tells her that he had something else up his sleeve.
“You’re in Class 2A, right?” Kai continues, “With Katsuki Bakugo.”
Bakugo? She thought to herself. Why bring him up all of a sudden?
“Yeah, I am.” She replies cautiously, the first signs of suspicion snaking its way to her gut. Ochako still couldn’t put her finger on where she had seen them before, but now with the sudden mention of Bakugo, she had all the more reason to stay on alert.
“Must be tough being classmates with someone like that, huh?” Shintani says sympathetically, like he felt the need to console her as if she had been dealt the worst hand of cards in a game.
“What are you talking about?” She asks quizzically.
“Oh, come on,” Shintani sniggers as if she had told him an inside joke, “You know how that animal gets.”
Kai nods in agreement, “A borderline savage, if you ask me.”
“But nobody asked you.” Ochako retorts, blinking back her shock afterwards. She hadn’t meant to say that, but a couple of strangers badmouthing Bakugo was getting on her nerves.
He turns to her, the kind smile on his face slips into a smug, lopsided grin, his facade instantly crumbling to partly show her what his true colors really were, “See this?” He asks, pointing to his nose, “That bastard did this to me.”
Ochako’s steps back, eyes widening in realization. The students from Class 2C. That’s why they looked so familiar. They were the ones she saw in that fight with Bakugo.
“I don’t even know why this school still lets him stay in the hero course.” Shintani adds.
Kai laughs before turning to her once again, “He only gives the rest of us a bad image, don’t you think so?”
Ochako’s grip on the stack of papers tighten as she takes a step towards them, “If both of you think that I’m going to join in some petty rant about Bakugo, then you’re barking up the wrong tree.”
She attempts to walk past them, but Kai steps aside to block her path, “You were matched up with him during last year’s sports festival, weren’t you, Ochako?”
“He was truly out of line treating you like some ragdoll he can throw around so easily.” Shintani adds.
Ochako’s face twists in annoyance, “First of all,” she begins, turning to Kai, “Do not call me by my first name.”
“Second,” She turns to Shintani, “He was fighting me seriously. That’s what you do in a competition.”
“And a piece of advice,” She steps closer to Kai, shoving a finger onto his chest. She didn’t know where she had gotten the strength to be able to carry the weight of Ms. Midnight’s paperwork with one hand, but it was there. “Don’t talk about someone like that when you don’t know the first thing about them.”
“And you do?” Kai challenges.
“I may not know Bakugo from head to toe, but I have enough decency in me to not walk up to random strangers to badmouth somebody I don’t know.” She bites back venomously before turning the other direction.
Before she could get any farther, Kai grabs her arm, his ironclad grip almost making her wince in pain, “Hey!” She protests.
“Come on, just hear us out--”
In a blink of an eye, Ochako is suddenly pulled away from his grasp. A tall, looming figure stood in between them, shielding her from both students.
“Don’t you fucking touch her.” Bakugo growls.
Ochako stares at him, wide-eyed. Bakugo’s back was to her, his shoulders rising and falling along the furious rhythm in each of his breaths.
Kai and Shintani fall back, fear and surprise flashing in both students’ eyes. Despite this, Kai nervously grins and takes a brave step forward, “Speak of the devil!”
“Shut the fuck up and piss off while you can still walk.” Bakugo snarls, his voice seething with malice.
Shintani follows in his friends footsteps and also steps towards Bakugo, “You’re all bark and no bite.”
“Walk away or I break your nose next .” He threatens. Ochako places her hand on Bakugo’s shoulder, her grip firm, “Bakugo, let’s just go.”
Bakugo doesn’t move, his body still rigid with rage, “You heard your girlfriend!” Shintani calls out.
“Unless you want to hit me again, I’ll show her what a real man looks like!” Kai taunts, making sure to look behind Bakugo to give Ochako a suggestive grin.
She feels him tense up even more under her palms as he begins to pace towards them. Ochako takes his hand and for the first time, Bakugo looks back at her, his expression livid, “They’re not worth it.” She warned, adding weight to every word she spoke.
Ochako holds his gaze as she gives his hand a gentle squeeze and for a moment, the anger in his eyes subside.
Kai takes another step forward, ready to hurl another insult at him when the door to the faculty’s office opens, “What seems to be the problem here?” Aizawa asks, hooded eyes flickering between Bakugo and the two students from 2C.
A bright smile works its way back to Kai’s face, “Nothing at all, Mr. Aizawa!” He beams, “We were just about to leave!”
Kai paced towards Bakugo, pausing so that he was directly beside him. “One of these days, when you least expect it, you’ll get what’s coming to you, Katsuki.” He says, barely above a whisper, but loud enough so that only Bakugo and her could hear it. Cold eyes still aimed forward, Kai walked away, Shintani in tow.
Aizawa turns to Ochako, his tired eyes dropping to Midnight’s paperwork, “Those must be from Midnight, bring them over here.” He instructs, walking back inside the office.
She feels Bakugo let go of her hand as he walked away, not even giving her the chance to talk to him. Ochako’s hand fold inwards as she stood there with a million questions swarming in her head.
“Uraraka.” Aizawa calls out from inside.
“Coming!”

Yet the performance of the therapy will certainly have to be examined in future trials with more participants as well as longer period. The main function of the test was to examine the new therapy for safety, yet researchers also observed some positive effects of peptide immunotherapy. But if the whole body immune system is deteriorated, individuals are extra at risk to infections and also cancer cells.
This clumping of hydrophobic particles is called hydrophobic interaction. An example of thioester linkage is the one in between the thiol group of CoA and also the carboxylic team of acetic acid in Acetyl CoA. Glycosidic bond undertakes degradation in a process called glycolysis. It is a hydrolytic process in which a water particle is made use of to damage the glycosidic bond and also release the carbohydrate and other deposits. Based on the stereochemistry of the anomeric carbon or its orientation precede, a glycosidic bond can either be an alpha-bond or a beta-bond. In an O-glycosidic link, the carbonyl group of carbohydrates responds with the hydroxyl team of another compound. This causes a compound in which the sugar or carb deposit is attached to the oxygen of the various other substance, thus the name O-glycosidic bond.
Tumours can commonly stay clear of being targeted by these T Cells by looking like a cell located usually in the body often referred to as "self". If a group of T Cells can be urged to identify these tumours as foreign and also not self after that they will attack the tumor and also offer a reliable treatment versus it. If the result of UCPCR runs out keeping with various other clinical finding after that we would certainly recommend duplicating the test especially if it is unexpectedly reduced. Individuals tipping out boric acid chemical from pee collection tube, in a sample taking more than 3 days to get to the research laboratory can result in synthetically low outcomes.

So scientists are working to uniquely target components of the body immune system thought to be straight responsible for the assault in Type 1 diabetic issues. There are additionally inquiries over whether collagen can make it through the digestion procedure.

A Soul for a Soul (The Vormir Fix)
Avengers fic
3,204 words
-
“Welcome, Steven, son of Sarah.”
Clint warned him about this, though he didn’t have a name to tell Steve. Here, on this rock at the centre of the universe, a face from the past.
“Schmidt.”
The eyes are the same, he realises, though the man is floating, surrounded by the ghostly tendrils of his reaper’s cloak. A guide, Clint said. Steve has guessed correctly.
“Not anymore,” says the figure. “I am a guide now, here to show the way to a treasure. You, however, already possess it.”
Steve’s grip on the case tightens and relaxes. That’s why he’s here. To return what was taken.
“So,” Steve says. “Do I just hand it to you?”
The skull can’t smile itself, but the muscles contort into the facsimile of a grimace, and the black raiment moves as if he is shrugging.
“Never in its history has the soul stone been willingly returned by those who claimed it.” The hollow eyes watch him a moment. “Come.”
He turns, and floats towards the cliff. Steve follows, and at the edge, he watches as the cloaked figure floats out over the chasm below. Steve opens the case. He taps his wrist, and the nanosuit gloves his hand, shimmering energy ready to protect him from the chaos contained within. He takes the glowing yellow stone in his hand, and stands. The figure reaches out, his hand lost somewhere beneath the robes, if he has a hand at all.
Steve drops the stone.
It falls through Schmidt as if he is smoke. Steve watches as the glinting yellow stone vanishes out of sight. When he looks up, his guide has vanished too. He is alone.
On the cliff where his friend made the ultimate sacrifice, Steve bows his head and takes a moment to thank her. Natasha, the woman who saved the universe. Maybe she knows. He hopes so.
Steve taps in his next coordinates, and winks out of existence.
-
A dominion-
She falls. The wind howls.
Please-
The air is ice.
…dominion of death-
Screaming. Maybe it’s her.
Let me go.
Only moments left.
…of death at the very centre-
For him, all for him, always for him-
No. Please, no-
It will be okay. She knows.
…the very centre of celestial existence-
Her last thought is of his face.
It’s okay.
Then nothing.
-
Natasha opens her eyes. Above, a moon in eclipse. The sky is dark. Shallow water laps at the borders of her body and she realises that she can feel it. She sits up. Blinks. If this is the afterlife, it’s a lot wetter than she thought it would be.
The word Vormir appears in her head. It swims up through the fog of her cerebral cortex and hangs there in her mind, waiting to be comprehended. Clint pops up alongside it. Stone. Death. No. Please, no. She shakes her head. Her hair is wet. Let me go. It’s okay.
“Fuck.”
The word tumbles out of her as the gravity in her head readjusts and she remembers what she was about to do. No, what she did. She jumped. That much she knows for sure. She fell. She must have hit the rocks below, and- Clint, where is Clint?
She wonders briefly if she’s dead. She’s not injured, which doesn’t seem right after leaping off a cliff. Dreaming? Maybe she’s dying down there on the rocks. She hopes Clint doesn’t have to watch her. But no. The things around her are real. Tangible. She is alive, but how?
Natasha looks around, and there is no mountain to be seen. No cliffs. No Clint. She only knows she’s still on Vormir thanks to the bruised sky and the glimmering eclipse. She doesn’t know when, though. What day is it? What time?
Time.
She looks down. Her hands are submerged in the water, propping her up. Is the suit affected by water? She never thought to ask. It didn’t occur to her to ask Stark if she could swim laps in this thing. Too preoccupied with the concept of travelling through time.
She touches the panel with hesitant fingertips, and it lights up. Apparently her luck doesn’t end with survival, because the whole thing seems to be functioning. Natasha keys in the date and coordinates for the return, as per the plan. She’ll appear back on the platform with the others. Clint will be there. Natasha is seized by the complete conviction that this is going to work, and she stands in the shallow water, ready to fly.
She hits the button.
The vortex opens and she closes her eyes as she is sucked back into the quantum realm. She locks her arms by her sides as she flies through the flashing tunnels of energy, and her blood is roaring in her ears, and the tunnel is looping back- no, something is wrong, something doesn’t feel like before- she hits something quasi-solid, and cartwheels into the energy stream, the light blinds her and-
She splashes back into the water. Her knees hit the ground below and she grunts, and puts her hands out to stop the rest of her body falling, and realises all at once that she is still here, still on this fucking rock in the middle of space.
Her wrist beeps, and she looks at the panel. 2023. She’s in the right time, but still in the same place. The tunnel has brought her through time but she hasn’t travelled physically. Not ideal for someone without a spaceship. Natasha grinds her teeth, and then takes a breath. She centres herself. A voice in her head that sounds a lot like Clint tells her to put her brain back in gear, so she does. She stands up, and walks out of the water onto what looks, in the dim light, to be a sand dune. She sits. Breathes. At least she can breathe. Bonus.
“Come on,” she mutters, tapping the panel. Red lights are blinking at her, telling her she can’t get anywhere. No Pym Particles, she realises. She’s used the last of them. There is nowhere else she can go. She doesn’t stop tweaking the panel, though, because Natasha Romanoff is not going to fucking die on Vormir. Not again.
It takes almost an hour, and her fingernails are ripped to shreds, but she manages to cannibalise the transmitter from her commlink and patch it into the power source of the panel. Now she has a beacon. Natasha doesn’t hesitate, and the second it’s ready, she switches it on. Anyone could find her, she knows that. It’s a big universe, and there could be any number of dangerous people who could pick up the signal. But anything is better than being here. She cradles the transmitter in her hands, and settles down in the sand to wait.
-
“5…4…3…2…1.”
The air crackles, and Steve appears on the platform. The empty case is in his hand, and as he steps down to the grass, Sam can see the tracks of tears on his cheeks.
“Is it done?” Bruce asks. Steve nods. Bucky’s eyebrows are raised, and Steve meets his gaze briefly but looks away, shaking his head.
“I need a drink,” Bucky says. Sam looks from him to Steve, and nods. What else can they do but be together now? As Steve brushes past him, Sam can smell a faint hint of perfume. He opens his mouth to say something, but he sees Bucky’s face and stops short.
The makeshift base is on the edge of the forest, built from emergency shelter tents, shipping containers, demountable buildings and any useful rubble they’ve found around the ruins of the facility. Pepper has told them numerous times that they don’t have to stay here, that there is accommodation available if they want, but they are all of them soldiers, aside from Banner, and they’re all used to sleeping rough. They even have beds in their tents, which is madness.
Sam raids the wreckage while Steve takes a shower in the demountable bathrooms and changes in his tent. He comes back to the clearing to find three friends waiting with worried eyes and dusty bottles of liquor, and he just knows they want to talk, but he can’t do that just yet, so he takes a plastic cup and sits in silence. Everyone is mercifully receptive to his game plan, so they just drink as the sun begins to sink on a day of good work.
Just as Steve starts to think up excuses to be alone, a phone rings. The four of them look around, confused, until Bruce fishes a cell out of his pocket. Gingerly, he tries to tap a button. Sam rescues the phone from his grip, and answers. He flicks it onto speakerphone.
“Hello?”
There is a crackling, and a voice pushes through the static.
“-ner. Banner? Banner, can you hear me?”
“Thor?” Bruce asks. Bucky looks at Steve as if to ask how the hell Thor has a phone. Steve shrugs helplessly.
“The computer found your number,” Thor says, on the other end of the line. “There’s a-”
The static returns. Sam shakes the phone like he’s trying to dislodge the sound.
“Thor?” Bruce calls. “You there?”
“-signal. It’s coming from Vormir.”
There is silence among them.
“Say that again?” Sam requests.
“We’re receiving a homing signal. It’s coming from Vormir.”
The silence is heavier now.
“Nat’s suit,” Steve says. His voice is thick. Emotion rises back to the surface, and he tries to swallow it with a mouthful of whatever the hell is in the cup he’s holding.
“We’re going in to investigate,” Thor says. “If it’s her, we will bring her home, so we can say goodbye properly.”
“Thank you,” Bruce says. “Thank you, Thor.”
-
The farmhouse has been quiet for a while. Laura does what she can, but to her it’s been a matter of weeks since they were out on the field, having lunch. Next thing, they were back there, Clint was gone, and the house looked like it had been abandoned for years. Which, of course, it was. Clint is back, he’s with them, but he’s different. It’s not just the extra five years, Laura thinks, or the haircut, or the tattoos. It’s the loss of his best friend. Laura mourns with him, and the kids do too, but he was there. He saw her die. It’s not the only thing he won’t talk about, but it’s up there.
When the quinjet lands, she almost wants to tell Steve that Clint isn’t here. He doesn’t need to suffer today. Her husband hasn’t made it a full day without crying yet. Neither has she. Laura takes Steve to where Clint is tinkering with the tractor anyway. Can’t turn away Captain America.
“Hey,” says Clint. The word is quiet, yet loaded. Steve can see his eyes are red. He looks so tired.
“Thor and the Guardians picked up a signal,” Steve says. No preamble. Clint deserves better than that. “We think it might be Natasha’s body.”
“Oh my God,” Laura says, voice soft. She puts a hand to her mouth.
Clint drops his head. “Okay. Good. They’re bringing her back?”
Steve nods. “We’ll know for sure in the next couple of hours. If you want to come back-”
“Yeah. I’ll come.”
Steve doesn’t know the protocol. Is Clint a hugging kind of guy? He looks like he needs it. Laura saves the day by walking over to her husband. He wraps his arms around her and clings to her. Steve looks away as Clint buries his face in his wife’s shoulder.
“I’ll be at the jet,” he says, and leaves them in the shed. The air outside is cool, and the last of the light is fading from the sky. Steve can see the beginnings of the field of stars stretching out overhead. The universe is so much bigger than he ever could have imagined. Here, the world still feels small.
“Let’s go.”
It’s Clint. He has grabbed a go bag from somewhere. Steve leads the way onto the jet. Clint sits in the copilot’s seat, and even though they are all of three feet apart, and there is a shared loss between them, the journey back to the ruins of the facility is silent.
-
Natasha is thirsty. How long does it take for a human to starve to death? Three weeks, she recalls. Three days without water. She has oxygen. That’s a small comfort.
Maybe it was too much to hope that someone would pick up the beacon. It’s a big universe. Hopefully she will fall asleep and not wake up. It’s a much more peaceful death than she thought she’d have. That, at least, is good. She wishes, though, that there was some way to get a message to Clint.
It’s hard to tell how long it’s been. There’s no light here. The unmoving eclipsed moon hangs overhead, and the dunes are lit with a dim purple light that does not change. She can’t tell if it’s been hours or days. From the hunger, she guesses around twenty-four hours.
The water is salty. She tried to drink it before. How long ago? Hard to say. The air around her isn’t getting colder, but her body’s core temperature is dropping as she gets weaker and more weary. She lies back on the sand, and looks up at the sky. At least there are stars. Maybe one of them is Earth. She knows she probably can’t see her own planet from here, but it’s nice to think one of the twinkling lights is her home. Clint is there. Steve. Everyone she’s ever known. Her family. Natasha smiles, dry lips cracking. She focuses on the brightest star. A planet? It’s flickering. It’s bright. Really bright. Getting… brighter?
Natasha sits up. It’s getting bigger. No, closer. It’s moving. She squints at it. The light extinguishes, and she realises that it’s something coming through the atmosphere. She sees lights again, this time in the shape of-
“About time,” she croaks. It’s a ship. A goddamn ship. As it draws closer, Natasha realises something, and it forces her to her feet, fills her with energy she didn’t know she could access.
She knows that ship.
-
He’s not ready. Clint will never be ready for this. It was hard enough the first time, and he’s had nightmares about her body for weeks. Now he has to face it, he has to see whatever is left of her. He doesn’t know what to expect, but he knows it will stay with him forever. All he can hope for is a chance to say he’s sorry. He knows he will hate himself for drawing breath over her, when she is dead because of him. For him, Laura said. He tries to tell himself that, and it works sometimes. Other times Clint can’t breathe for the grief, for wishing that he’d just run faster, or knocked her down harder. Something, anything not to feel this gaping hole in his chest, this loss that can’t ever be remedied.
“Clint.”
“I can’t do this.”
Steve has been crying too, but he puts his hand on Clint’s shoulder anyway. They’re all crying. It’s nothing these days. They’ve been crying for five years, why stop now? The sun is breaking over the horizon. It has been a sleepless night at the makeshift facility camp.
“This is the best we could hope for,” says Steve. Clint believes that. Getting her back, even if it’s just a body to bury, is infinitely better than leaving her on that godforsaken planet, alone forever. It’s not bringing her back that Clint can’t face. It’s knowing that there’s nothing left to do. It’s the thought of moving on in a world without Natasha, without his partner and best friend.
“Steve!”
It’s Sam, calling them both. Steve turns his attention to the sky, and hears a faint rumble. From above, the ship appears. Clint watches as it descends, and he feels the twist in his gut that reminds him of the last time he saw it - from the pilot’s seat, with Natasha by his side, giddy and laughing their way to her death.
They walk over to where the ship is touching down. The ramp lowers, and Clint steels himself. He feels Sam’s hand on one shoulder, and Steve’s on the other. The team surrounds him, ready to brace him against whatever agony will be carried down off that ship.
Rocket appears first. He walks over to the waiting men.
“Don’t be mad, okay?” he says. “I promised I wouldn’t call you before we got here.”
Confused, Clint looks back at the ramp. Walking out of the ship is Thor, followed by Quill. Groot and Drax appear too. Clint doesn’t understand.
“You couldn’t get her?” he asks Thor. His voice is broken. This too has failed. He’s never going to get to tell her he’s sorry.
“Clint,” Steve says. The colour has departed from his face, and his mouth is open. Sam is staring. Clint follows their lines of sight to the ramp, where Natasha Romanoff is stepping onto the grass, supported by Nebula on one side and Mantis on the other.
“Nat,” he chokes. Then he’s running. He hears someone shout something, hears a gasp, a soft ‘oh my god’ from someone, he doesn’t know, doesn’t care who it is. Natasha sees him, and her face slackens- is she crying? Clint is blinded by his own tears and he skids to a halt in front of her. Is she a ghost? A symptom of his mind finally folding in on itself from grief? He reaches out and touches her shoulder. She’s real. Solid. She collapses into him and Clint slumps with her onto the damp grass. The first light of the sun is just touching them, and it’s not warm yet, but she is. She’s alive. Natasha is alive.
“How-”
“I don’t know,” she says. She sounds terrible. She looks like she’s half dead. Better than all dead, Clint thinks, and he cups her face in his hands and inspects her.
“Clint-”
“I’m so sorry.”
“No,” she says. “No, don’t. I’m sorry.”
“Nat-”
She buries her face in his neck and he holds her, realising they are surrounded by clamouring Avengers. Steve is crying, Bucky at his shoulder, Sam is punching the air, and Thor is trying to look smug while he disguises his own tears. Even the Guardians look touched. Clint doesn’t give a shit. His whole world is in his arms, and Natasha pulls back and looks at him, smiling a smile he never thought he’d see again.
“Don’t ever do that to me again,” he says.
“Can’t promise anything.”
He pulls her close in the light of the dawn, and presses his lips to her forehead.
Natasha closes her eyes and savours the feeling. The dew is wet on her legs. The weak sunlight is warm on her skin. Clint surrounds her with more warmth, with a presence so solid and safe she never wants to leave his embrace.
“Welcome home,” he says, and they simply hold onto one another, each silently thanking the universe for the gift of the other.

You might be able to lose weight from fad diet plans but you will rarely lose ample excess fat to have a shapely tummy. The reason being fat loss may well be a mixture of muscle tissue reduction, drinking water loss and weight loss. Normally, there exists a lot more muscle and drinking water loss than there may be weight loss. Lowering energy aids in weight loss but also eventually inhibits your metabolism. Physical exercise will help harmony this effect. A higher metabolic process is a crucial asset in seeking to shed pounds especially in the tummy region. Most Beneficial Utilization of Physical exercise Time Not every workout routines will provide you with exactly the same results. Some exercises are more effective than the others. You should do the workout routines that supply you with the highest profit for the effort. This will make sure you get effects and stay determined to accomplish your weight loss motivation.

This is correct whether or not you happen to be man or woman. Girls make use of strength training up to men do and really should not low cost this exercise. Your training for strength program should give attention to entire body exercise routines. Emphasis ought to be on huge muscle groups such as your thighs and legs, butt, rear and upper body.

Typical Cardio Coaching as a Previous Option
Most people will not likely go along with these document since they are very enthusiastic about their strolling, jogging and fishing. I am not against conventional cardio workouts yet it is not the most beneficial usage of your exercising time. A question to question is if you are carrying out traditional cardio for well being purposes, weight loss or sport. Typical cardio is effective for enhancing overall health yet not as powerful for weight loss as strength and interval training is. You should utilize typical cardio as being a place to start and make your fitness level to the level that you could relocate to interval training workouts. This exercise is only recommended if you are not in shape ample to accomplish interval training workouts. You may use traditional cardio to create your level of fitness. You might also undertake it after you have carried out your share of strength and interval training for the week however have more time to allot for physical exercise.

How to Design Your Ideal Diet
Choosing a diet regimen for on your own can be enjoyable, yet also overwhelming. There more than 100 various nutritional theories out there today, as well as it can be hard for us to choose which one is the excellent diet plan for us and our families.
Last year when I started culinary nourishment college, my initial project was to develop my very own written food ideology. Since I had my own wellness training practice for 5 years, I currently had a fairly strong understanding of my food philosophy or where I stood when it pertains to food. But I desired to dig much deeper and also actually discover what that suggested for me as well as my family.
Finding My Ideal Diet
Over the training course of my recovery journey, my food philosophy has actually evolved. I struggled with weight problems, high cholesterol, allergic reactions, autoimmune disease and regular illnesses. In the start, I was concentrated on dropping weight and also sensation better - having more energy.
I eliminated very processed as well as packaged foods having high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oils and also preservatives. In the 1980's and also 1990's, I ate a whole lot of fat-free and health foods. I promptly tossed those foods out and changed them with full-fat versions. I started including even more vegetables as well.
As I began to reduce weight as well as obtain more power, I discovered myself in the kitchen extra and also started to enjoy the procedure of cooking and also creating brand-new recipes for my family. Quickly, I began seeing farmer's markets and also started finding out about neighborhood farming techniques. I made brand-new buddies with farmers and also manufacturers and also truly began to comprehend the intricacies of sustainable farming methods. This is when I actually began to move my idea system. I developed connections with farmers, market suppliers, beekeepers, herbalists, kombucha manufacturers, as well as generate farmers. These new relationships strengthened my understanding of our food economy, just how the federal government is so associated with our food and also how we absolutely can produce change with our getting behaviors. Supporting these folks came to be a lifestyle. I recognized my food, the individuals that grew it as well as exactly how it was being processed.
Currently, all of my meat, eggs, raw honey, herbal medicinal teas and also create originated from local ranches. I do supplement some fruit, veggies and snack foods from a neighborhood grocery shop though. These connections allowed my youngsters to have a better understanding of where our food comes from. These see the delighted cows, skip about with the piglets, and chase after chickens on the ranch near our residence. It produces an enjoyable, family outing.
Why is this important to do? I personally feel as a society we have actually relocated so much past a connection with our food. We're consuming supper at the drive-thru, snacks that come in plans and boxes rather than whole foods and also we turn a blind eye to the wrongs of traditional animal feeding operations.
Some might believe that I may be or must be a vegetarian provided what I recognize, however my body hungers for meat - not a lot, but some. So, I select to source locally-raised, pastured animals fed their natural diet of grass (and bugs for the chickens). I believe that everyone is different as well as we each have specific organic dietary needs. We must each establish a suitable diet that works for our individual bodies. Nonetheless, I do think that every person might gain from consuming entire, unrefined foods, small amounts of grass-fed meats if essential, natural fruit and vegetables and assistance local farming while doing so.
How To Design Your Ideal Diet
With every one of the nutritional concepts to choose from, do not really feel urged to pick one and proclaim to the globe how you eat. That's your business and also no one else's. You can determine if you really feel good eating meat or fish or if a vegan diet regimen is ideal for you. Or, maybe you intend to mix it up, like I do, and eat vegetarian one day and also fish the next - I call that the "flexitarian diet regimen."
But just how do we actually place this into method? Right here are some points to think about when you start to create your optimal diet.
1. Establish your own Food Philosophy
This important initial step overviews your choice making when it involves food. Here's mine:
My Personal Food Philosophy: Consume S. L. O. W.( Lasting. Regional. Organic. Wild.) My motto for the last 5 years has actually been to pick foods that are sourced ethically as well as sustainably. I attempt to choose regional whenever I can and also sustain my farmer close friends that live nearby. I choose Organic as long as feasible to avoid the "refined" things as well as often go "Wild" - for instance, I will certainly forage for wild herbs and also plants as well as pick wild over farmed seafood. And also, it's simply a suggestion to "consume gradually," or mindfully, which is terrific for digestion.
In addition to what I have actually reviewed above, a few of things you might intend to consider in your ideology are:
What you like to eat
Where your food comes from
What you 'd want a person to prepare you for dinner
How you make food decisions at the supermarket or market
What's your dream meal?
2. Consider what is locally available
We all enjoy avocados and bananas, however, for a number of us worldwide these foods aren't local. I'm not claiming you need to never ever consume them - nonetheless, it's vital to likewise consider what foods are plentiful in your location, as well as likewise what's in period. Neighborhood foods contain even more nutrients than those that were chosen weeks back and delivered throughout the country.
In an excellent world, your perfect diet plan would concentrate on what you have accessibility to. This allows us to support regional organisations and farms, minimize our environmental influence and consume food that is best - which is mosting likely to be wonderful for our health!
3. What are your activity levels?
Consider exactly how active you are. If you're educating on a daily basis, your nutrient demands are mosting likely to be greater than a person that has a desk task and isn't working out numerous times a week. On days when you're a lot more energetic, you might need a lot more healthy protein to fuel your muscular tissues as well as on days when you're operating at a desk you might require to eat a simpler dish like a salad with a healthy fat to keep your brain operating ideally. You may require extra protein, water and electrolytes if you're exercising consistently.
4. What is your health situation?
If you're suffering from an autoimmune illness, an inflammatory problem or fighting an illness, your diet plan will certainly require to reflect these problems. Those with autoimmune condition need to stay clear of inflammatory foods, like gluten, dairy products, sugar as well as possibly nightshades (you can grab a total Anti-Inflammatory Diet plan + Way Of Life Guide right here).
Conversely, if you have a household history of disease and also wish to stop disease, you need a diet regimen high in superfoods, anti-oxidants, fermented foods and plant-rich meals.

Are you taking care of your cat in the right way?
In case you're another feline parent, we should make it extremely evident that in opposition to prevalent sentiment, felines aren't completely free pets. From anti-tick for cats solutions for other pet items for them, they do require care and support which usually is neglected by feline guardians. Thus, on the off chance that you truly need that murmur affect your relationship with your little hairy amigo then you need to comprehend what are the most well-known missteps you wind up making with felines and how to effortlessly handle them!
Try not to race into purchasing a feline Let's start from the nuts and bolts – purchasing a feline. Purchasing pets are for the most part known to be an incautious choice that you make when you see those charming cat eyes or a feline needing an asylum else it will not endure. Also, however your motion in both these situations is real, don't tragically buy a feline in beat. Along these lines, ensure that before you really proceed with purchasing a feline your courses of action for its visit, sensitivities, food, rest, personalities, and different prerequisites are set up. I don't anticipate that you should have a 'what's in store when you're expecting' book prepared with your exploration, yet address the essentials of how felines act, what do they eat, what are their upkeep costs, what breed suits the climate you stay in, and so on Perhaps the most ideal approaches to guarantee that you are settling on the correct choice for your feline you can peruse "pet accessories shops near me" on the web and afterward contact the businesspeople to get some answers concerning pet raisers or salvage pets.
Taking care of your fuzzy companion Now that your little cat is home, the two things any feline necessities to endure are food and space. You would be astonished to discover that according to the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention, more than 60% of American felines are overweight because of absence of consideration by proprietors on the dietary necessities of their felines. So ensure you're not after the deep rooted mantra of leaving a bowl of food outside for your feline accepting that it can comprehend its own dietary necessities. After a couple of vet visits, you can appropriately assess how much food your feline necessities in one go and how frequently it should be taken care of in a day. Its additionally imperative to guarantee you are taking care of them the correct sort of feline food. Above all else let me say this noisy and clear – felines can't eat canine food! Felines ought not eat canine food!
3.Felines won't eat canine food! Due to the less assortment and less mindfulness about feline food, a great deal of my kindred feline guardians wind up purchasing fish-enhanced canine food. So lets start with putting forth the attempt to discover pet products online in Lucknow (or whichever city you're living in). Also, in any event, when you do track down a pet item online in your city with feline food ensure that it has a great deal of protein and meat. You likewise have the alternative of going for hand crafted feline food, however even all things considered make certain to add as much mineral-rich and nutrient rich food and not to add an excessive number of fillers like grains.
Ensure your feline stays hydrated notwithstanding their food necessities, you should ensure that your felines get new water in any event double a day. Being fuzzy causes them to retain considerably more warmth than they need, so on the off chance that you don't help keep their bodies hydrated they can get irritable, hot, or even flee! Additionally it appears to be judicious to keep a feline's food bowl and water bowl next to each other, yet its not! Felines do invest a ton of energy close to their food bowls thus feline guardians want to keep the water bowl close to it would help make them drink more water. Be that as it may, really the water may gather a great deal of residue and hide from the feline and make the water filthy. There are likewise these earthenware drinking fountains on numerous stores for pet products online that I discover are ideal for giving new water to felines without letting residue and hide get into it.
Preparing a feline's hide is certainly not a simple accomplishment. We should proceed onward to preparing now. In the event that your feline doesn't let out fur balls occasionally I recommend asking the vet what's going on with it. Since felines frequently self-clean and ingest their own free hide (lose hide is the top-most layer of their hide which establishes all the dead skin to be shed off). So regardless of any sort of preparing endeavors from your side, your feline will ingest its hide and let out hide balls. The genuine inquiry is what amount is it ingesting? Assuming you don't routinely brush and brush your feline, odds are that your feline is devouring the entirety of its loose hide. So whether it has a long hide or short hide, a speedy brushing meeting once in 2 days will help ward off skin diseases, knicks, knots, and sensitive areas. Furthermore, after your day by day brushing meetings you can apply some flea and tick remover creams or powders to get your feline far from diseases.
Train your feline to utilize scratching stations Another standard that you should add to upgrade your feline's preparation is preparing it to adhere to one specific scratching post. Felines truly scratch a great deal of furniture since they need to eliminate the external sheath of their hooks. This scratching propensity can truly destroy your furnishings, yet feline guardians regularly accept that this is exactly what occurs with felines. However, there is an answer for this, fire setting up scratching stations. At whatever point your feline begins scratching around, take them to the scratching station and ensure there are cardboard scratchers, comparative pieces so the feline has something to scratch. A favorable to tip for this is add some feline nip to these scratching stations to get the felines come to it. Also, for the great furniture that you don't need them to scratch on you can apply some canine repellent splash since canine repellent showers function admirably for normally getting canines and felines far from specific spots and furniture in your home.
Simply attempt to purchase a wide range of fundamental items like feline and canine repellent showers, insect and tick removers, and whatever else your feline may require from trustable stores of pet items on the web. Yet, as overpowering as this may sound, plan it out well and I am certain your feline will turn into your closest companion. However, remember that usually its not you who claims your feline but rather the reverse way around!
