Hello there mate!

Hope you're doing good and I'm here to say I ADORE you're Dad!Tsu'tey works and they bring me my daily dose of serotonin.

But also, since I've read (and reread) the "Grumpy dad and his feral son" work I've been having some thoughts. Like, what if Tsu'Tey was just a second too late and they managed to take Spider away? How would he react (I mean obviously he would hunt the shit out of them down) ? When would he and Spider reunite again? In the forest while he was with the recoms? In the battle of the Sea Dragon? I mean he would most def come to his rescue if the letter is the case to come and get him (+ to aid the Sullies), but then I also wonder what would happen. Would the whole Neytiri holding him hostige infront of Quaritch so he would release Kiri thing happen? How would he react to that? Or what if he got shot instead on Neteyam (not dying tho cos I want both my faves to live a happy life) ? I bet Tsu'Tey would be fucking terrified cos it woul remind him of how he got shot and almost died.

Anywho I'm sorry for the long line of questions and suggestions I left but when my brain finds something to hyperfixate on it will not stop coming up with questions and possible scenarios for the said thing 😅

I love the way your brain thinks Anon. (The fact I literally had most of these scenarios either thought out or planned :D) This got long. All the questions just gave me so many ideas and I RAN with it. Enjoy the memes and I hope there's no obvious spelling mistakes.

>_<

If Tsu'tey were too late to grab Spider before Quaritch got to him:

I could definitely see him tearing off after the recoms. Maybe he springs from the bushes too late, and Quaritch has already hoisted the boy up over his shoulder. Naturally, Tsu'tey still tries to attack him with his bow, but Lyle opens fire too fast and he old instinct has him retreating. Man definitely has some PTSD from getting shot during the war, and although mentally he still wants Spider back, his body goes on auto-pilot and throws him out of the line of fire. Lyle keeps shooting in his direction as the recoms retreat, but Tsu'tey isn't gonna let something as silly as instinct keep him down for long.

That's his boy, they'll have to kill him to keep him from getting him back. Thankfully, Jake knows exactly where his brain went and literally had to throw himself at this man so he didn't end up getting himself shot (again). Jake likes Spider well enough, but he thinks regrouping is a better course of action than charging in guns blazing - shocker, he's actually matured since having his kids.

Tsu'tey definitely fights with all he has against Jake, cursing at him and trying to wrestle himself free. He can't focus on anything but the distant roar of the enemy ship as it soars in close to the canopy. He can see the lights, and through the trees, the vague outlines of the recoms strapping themselves in. Lo'ak definitely has to wrestle the hunter's knife out of its sheath before he remembers it is there. But no one can save Jake from Tsu'tey biting the shit out of him. Man does not give a shit at this point.

When he gets free. (Of course it's a when not an if.) The airship is already long gone. A distant hum in the distance, even to his superior hearing. The pure, unbridled rage on this man's face is terrifying. Instead of explosive, loud anger, he's cold, almost unnervingly calm. A whole new level of terrifying.

Jake is definitely too scared to try and coax him out of the clearing and instead focuses on reassuring his children. Neytiri has to approach him, she's known him the longest afterall. Had stuck with him through the loss of Sylwanin, the fall of HomeTree, the war, she knows how best to handle him when he is like this. That doesn't mean her words are effective however. Tsu'tey needs a moment of stillness to collect his thoughts and recollect himself after the adrenaline burst, but Neytiri is already grabbing him roughly by the bicep and trying and drag him to his ikran.

He's still seething. Barely seeing straight. Half baked plans of him attacking the demon airship before it could get to Bridgehead were sounding more tempting by the moment.

Somehow Neytiri drags him out of the clearing and into the branches of the trees. Hauling his weary body to safer ground. But in his musing, Tsu'tey recalls the figure of Neytiri in the trees when Spider fell. He remembers seeing her dragging Kiri away with half a nod of acknowledgement sent Tsu'tey's way. It sends a fresh wave of rage crashing over him.

"You left him." He suddenly snarled, ripping his arm from her and pointing an accusatory finger at her. "He was right there, and you abandoned him!"

Neytiri's ears droop and she doesn't deny it. She doesn't back down either. "My priority was Kiri. I assumed you could handle it." She doesn't apologise for her actions or inaction. Just holds his gaze and holds her ground. Her expression neutral.

Tsu'tey knew she'd never taken much of a liking to Spider, despite her relationship with Jake and his heritage. Despite Tsu'tey unofficial adoption of the boy. There had always been a sense of hostility between the two. With Neytiri acting colder to Spider and the boy refusing to call her out on it. Tsu'tey had never thought to address it or try and help them mend that gap, now look at them.

And that's the real kick to the teeth. Not that Neytiri didn't care enough to be sorry that it was his kid taken instead of her own. It was the truth in her words that had his anger faltering. He should've been able to handle it. Spider was his son. And he let him slip through his fingers. He should've fought harder, dirtier. Should have resorted to teeth and nails if he had to.

So what if he got shot? If he'd angled it right, he would've had enough time to get Spider to safety.

If it had been Neteyam or Lo'ak in Quartich's hold, Jake would've torn himself apart to ensure their safety. Neytiri would've fallen into a blind rage to keep her children safe. Would have used every resource at her disposal to protect her own. She would have stared death in the face and kept snarling. And what had Tsu'tey done? Allowed a past experience to still his movements. To make him hesitate, and now he might have to pay the price for the rest of his life.

His retort dies on his tongue as his heart clenches painfully. But Tsu'tey had never been one to give up easily. He kept a tight hold on his anger, allowed it to guide him as he shoved past Neytiri and called for his ikran. His face was set in his trademark scowl, but there was a predatory fluidity to him that only came out during the war. When what he loved was threatened.

As his ikran lands beside him and he makes the bond, Lo'ak sidles up to his side, offering him back his knife. There is a familiar fire burning in the depths of the boy's eyes. A desire for vengance, and a sea of guilt and pain. Tsu'tey allows his face to soften for a heartbeat, he bends over the side of his ikran and squeezes Lo'ak's shoulder tight. "I will get him back." He promises.

Lo'ak chews on his lower lip, his eyes flickering to Tsu'tey and holding his burning gaze. He must see Tsu'tey's determination, his drive, his stubbornness, because he cracks a small smile and nods.

The family prepares to return to High Camp. Jake warning Tsu'tey that any attempts to go after Spider now was a suicide mission. He didn't argue, but neither did Tsu'tey agree. He also chose to ignore Neytiri handing Tuk off to him. Just kept his gaze ahead, and his hand loosely wrapped around the little girl's stomach so she was secure in the saddle in front of him.

If they reunited in the forest:

Lets say by chance Tsu'tey gets word of the Demon ship in clan territory again, or he's just riding around the forest on a pa'li because it helps him clear his mind.

He hasn't slept since Spider was taken. He's worried for his boy and severely regretting not letting him know what he meant to him before this shit show got so out of hand. In typical Tsu'tey fashion, he's been spending his time gathering Spider's belongings for when he returns.

Norm had already handed over most of the boy’s prized possessions when Tsu’tey asked for them from his bedroom in the compound. He’d packed everything away neatly in preparation to wherever Jake was planning to flee, so his son would have what he needed the minute he was retrieved. Spare exo pack, rechargeable batteries, etc.

He's in his head so deep, that he takes a double take when he spots Spider through the trees. His pa'li makes an abrupt stop, the large animal mirroring Tsu'tey's shock as he stares wide eyed at the image of his boy stood on a log, above a group of recoms. Even from a distance he can see the bruises. He can see the tense set of his shoulders, his swift glances to the forest, despite pretending to be at ease.

Tsu'tey's shock melts into a scowl as his bow groans under the tightening on his hands. He steels himself with a long, deep inhale, mentally calculating the space within the small clearing. The sight of the guns on the recoms have his heart pounding, and his scars tingling with phantom pain. He knows deep down that his bow will be useless in a one on six fight. His only advantage is surprise, and he only gets one chance.

Tsu'tey's mind is made up before he takes his next breath. He knows he needs to try. Even if it ends with a bullet between his shoulders and his pa'li throwing him off from the pain, he needs to die trying. Whether it kills him or not, he needs to return Spider to the clan, where he will be safe. Where Jake and Neytiri can take him to a fresh start, a safer alternative to the clan at war.

The recoms are distracted. Only one wearing sunglasses is actually taking stock of his surroundings. Spider is talking, commanding most of the group's attention.

Sucking in a deep breath, Tsu'tey lets out a sharp call that could easily be mistaken for some distant herd animal. None of the recoms react but he sees Spider visibly stiffens. Tsu’tey grins despite himself and readies his mount.

He notches an arrow into his bow and urges his pa'li forward. He erupts from the undergrowth with a war cry, and skewers the closest unsuspecting recom. It scatters the group like startled yerik, who immediately scramble for their guns.

"TSU'TEY!" Spider yells, sounding shocked and elated to see him. The hunter spares only a moment killing a second recom before he's charging for that log. His pa'li races past faster than the enemy can load their weapons, and it gives Tsu'tey large enough of an opening to lean down and grab Spider's by his extended hands. The child immediately latches onto him, grabbing whatever he can as Tsu'tey swings him up into the saddle in front of him and together they disappear off into the undergrowth.

Shots were fired at their back but no one got hit, much to Tsu'tey's relief. But the adrenaline rush isn't over because Spider turns around and yells in a rush about a tracker in his mask.

Not to worry though, because Tsu'tey is very up to date on all the old compound location. Even as his triumph sours, he takes confidence in the distant yells of the recoms and the light pressure of Spider at his front. He snarls softly to himself as he makes his pa'li change course.

Yes they get the masks switched out without issue and toss the bugged one into a fast moving river to send Quaritch on a wild goose chase and buy the Sully's more time to run.

Side note: In this possibility, Tsu'tey was definitely convinced Spider wasn't safe enough with him and he had to go with the Sully's to the Metkayina clan. And Tsu'tey was NOT planning to go with him. HAVE ANGST!!

If they reunited on the Sea Dragon:

In this scenario, Tsu'tey ends up visiting the Sullys when the Sea Dragon turns up. He just wanted to check up on his friends and see if they've heard anything about Spider, and the next thing he knows, he's got nieces and nephews to save, and a score to settle.

Tsu'tey is definitely going straight for the ship.

It's during the stand-off where the Colonel has his gun to Lo'ak's temple and Jake isn't telling anyone over the comms what is happening - preparing to hand himself over like the idiot he is. Tsu'tey was circling above the clouds on his ikran with Neytiri, carefully listening to his ear piece as he tries to decipher what is going on. The minute he catches sight of Spider being escorted back into the ship, all rational thought leaves this man's head. Of course he has enough sense to remain undetected - he's not stupid - but he's also not on board with Jake's self-sacrificing bullshit. In Tsu'tey's books, failure is not an option this time around. He is getting Spider back if it kills him.

Tsu'tey and Payakan being on the same wavelength.

The tulkun YEETING himself onto the ship's deck and giving Tsu'tey big enough of an opening to land his ikran and send the beast back up into the sky undetected. He makes brief eye contact with Neteyam who's circling the shallows around the belly of the ship, getting ready to leap up and help out his siblings.

The oldest Sully boy points to the kids tied to the railing, Tsu'tey nods. He motions behind him, where the RDA sailors took Spider and Neteyam nods his understanding.

On the horizon, the Metkayina clan are inbound. Tearing through the waves and heading straight for the ship.

Tsu'tey decides that they've got this covered and finds the nearest doorway that will lead him into the belly of the metal ship. He's too tall for the corridors and either has to knuckle crawl or walk at a constant stoop. His bow is a pain to hold loaded in the tight space, so he opts solely for his knife.

He navigates the ship blindly. His ears pricked for Spider's voice, but otherwise killing anyone he comes across and moving swiftly. He knows the destruction caused by Payakan would've damaged something valuable and he needs to move fast.

I love the idea of Tsu'tey stumbling across the control room in time to find Spider steering the ship towards the rocks and then brutally killing the controls with a fire extinguisher. (Boy was eyeing that lever heavily whenever he was in the same room as it). Just Tsu'tey letting out a half formed growl as the crewmates try to tear Spider away and fix the lever, but his oncoming attack getting put on hold as the enormous ship speeds for the rocks and promptly takes off.

The minute that bitch lands back in the water, you can bet Tsu'tey is the first on his feet. He erupts into the room with a sound so unnerving that the crew forget that they are armed. It's an unfair fight. And despite the tight quarters and being outnumbered, Tsu'tey wipes the floor with everyone.

They find Spider an exopack and get the fuck off the sinking ship to meet back up with the Sullys out on the rock.

Just the crew out cold or dead at his feet, and Tsu'tey closing the distance between himself and Spider. He drops into a crouch, all hard scowl and sharp eyes, and gently tucks Spider's dread behind his ear. "Are you unharmed?"

Spider nods, dumbfounded and thrown off by the raw concern in Tsu'tey's voice. Tsu'tey grumbles. He can see spots of blood all over Spider, small grazes and nicks that shouldn't be there. His stripes are faded and his hair needs a retwist. But he's alive, and Tsu'tey isn't going to let anything else happen to him.

Bonus:

The standoff:

I feel like throwing Tsu'tey into the mix would throw so many scenes off course with his sheer presence that the stand off between Neytiri and Quaritch where they're holding the kids hostage wouldn't happen. There would be too many variables changing for it to occur the same way, but lets pretend it does.

(Neteyam is alive btw, just resting on his rock with Tsireya kindly mixing him up a poultice she learned from her Tsahik training. Lyle didn't kill him, but Neteyam definitely had to protect Lo'ak's dumbass in some way. That child is accident prone.)

Anyway, we've got Quaritch holding Kiri hostage. Jake is trying to keep Tuk out of harm's way. No one knows where the fuck Lo'ak is, but he's slippery enough to get himself out of anything. And then we've got Neytiri making a last ditch effort to protect her daughter by threatening to take away the last thing Quaritch loves; Spider.

In the background, we've got Tsu'tey. Breathing hard, slightly wounded from throwing himself around on a ship with broken equipment and guns getting fired at him from all directions.

Raised voices draw his attention. He's standing on the walkway overlooking the deck where the standoff is occurring. He spots Spider first, under Neytiri's blade, begging for Kiri's life instead of his own. Anger like he's never felt before curls hard in his stomach. The betrayal is worse than when Jake and Neytiri first mated. It was one thing to let his son get captured, it was another to murder him right in front of Tsu'tey.

Kiri's voice stops Tsu'tey from doing anything stupid in his blind rage. Every molecule of his body screams to defend his child, but common sense makes him take in the situation.

His head snaps to Quaritch holding Kiri hostage. To Jake within arms reach, but preoccupied with Tuk. To the knife drawing blood at Kiri's neck.

Tsu'tey also takes note of the clear shot he has from his vantage point. There is no conflict within him as he notches his bow. No concern for Spider's reaction, or the conflicted feelings he might have towards his birth father. Tsu'tey's mind is clear. His hands are steady. And his mind is made up.

He takes the shot, and nail's the recom through his right eye. The arrow - fired with all the strength he could muster - goes straight through bone and wedges in up to two thirds of its shaft.

Quaritch sways for a heartbeat, his knife clattering to the metal deck as Kiri tears away from him and throws herself at Jake. Then he collapses with a painful thump. Limps sprawling and his head lolling.

Slowly, Tsu'tey lowers his bow, his gaze narrowed and his tail whipping behind him. He catches Neytiri's eyes as the huntress and her family follow the direction the arrow had come from.

"Unhand. My. Son." Tsu'tey snarls, his voice ringing out over the soft crash of the waves and the pop of fire. His gaze is venomous, fingers twitching for another arrow if Neytiri doesn't back down. There's still a crazed edge to her gaze, a look Tsu'tey is sure he shares. He hasn't felt this shaken since Spider was taken.

Neytiri nods once. An acknowledgment. And lets Spider go.

His son stumbles away, furiously scrambling to put distance between himself and Neytiri. Kiri was quick to soothe him, check him for injuries as Jake carefully approached Neytiri to take the knife off of her.

Tsu'tey leaps down from the upper level. He can't be bothered to find the stairs and the height is nothing compared to what he has to deal with back in the forest. He keeps an eye on Neytiri, but knows that Jake has her now. Ears pricked in case of further enemies, Tsu'tey spares a few moments to kick Quaritch's corpse and make sure he fired a killing shot. The last thing he needed was to grow comfortable again and then in fifteen years have to deal with this bullshit all over again.

"Dad?" The quiet utterance has panic straightening his spine. It's not one of his nieces asking for Jake's attention. It's Spider's voice. Quiet and shaky and so vulnerable that Tsu'tey just wants to wrap himself up in his arms.

Instead, all he can think about is Quaritch's body at his feet. Tsu'tey's arrow protruding from his eye socket. His blood pooling at his feet.

Then it hits him all at once. Spider's birth dad is dead at his feet, and Tsu'tey put him there. Tsu'tey killed him. He didn't even ask. Spider spent months with this man - against his will - but not everything is black and white. They might have come to some understanding. He might of grown to know him outside of his video logs and the fleeting stories he overheard from the Omaticaya. Spider may have gotten to know Quaritch without the biased lense of hate everyone else talks about him with. And Tsu'tey murdered him. What's worse, he felt triumphant doing it.

Tsu'tey can feel his hands shaking, regardless of how tightly he grasped his bow. His ears were flat against his skull, his tail tucked in close to his legs. He prays he just looks like he's reflecting, in contrast to being crushed by the weight of his actions. And he keeps staring at Quaritch's corpse. The arrow. The blood.

"Dad?" Spider says again. A little louder. More confident. And it kills Tsu'tey as he cringes, eyes squeezing shut against the guilt.

A brush of a hand to his wrist. His eyes snap open, and there's Spider. Gazing up at him with wide, tearful eyes. His mask is slightly cracked and he's bleeding from his chest where Neytiri caught him with her blade. But there is no hatred in his expression. Only relief and exhaustion.

"Dad, are you okay?" Spider asks him, and he looks at Tsu'tey as he says it.

The realisation hits him like a sturmbeest stampede. That Spider was calling him Dad, not the corpse at his feet.

With a deep, shuddering breath, Tsu'tey pulls himself together. "I am." He reassures his son as he drops into a crouch. It is evident from Spider's expression that he doesn't believe him, but the boy doesn't push.

Instead, he throws his arms around Tsu'tey's neck and burries his face under his chin. Tsu'tey chuckles wetly, his arms wrapping around Spider and dragging him close. It soothes every raw instinct in him to finally have his boy back in his arms. Tired and injured, but safe.

Around him, he can hear the Sully family beginning to wade into the surf, so Tsu'tey tucks his arms under Spider's thighs and hoists him up onto his hip, like he used to when his son was still a toddler. Despite his age now, he's still the perfect size for Tsu'tey to carry unhindered out of the shipwreck.

Hello it's been 7 years on this website and I come with raccoon paws scratching at your window pane.

TLDR: I'm supporting 3- 6 humans, a mortgage, inflated electric bills, student loans, basic needs, and working as the sole provider and now I cannot afford my medicine that prevents my migraines. If you want cheap art I am here hi just remember I'm colorblind so colors won't be perfect.

I take many medications for my migraine condition. I take a daily preventative, an abortive when I have a migraine, and then I have a monthly preventative that is an injectable. I need all of these to get me down to 6 or 8 migraines a month. If it rains I have more but this is with medication. If I do not have one of these medications I have migraines daily and if I encounter a trigger like not getting enough sleep, the weather changing, smoking, etc I'll get knocked out.

Unfortunately I have brainstem migraines which impacts my speech and ability to move in my environment. I continue to work through my migraines because I have literally no choice. I basically look and sound drunk it's horribly embarrassing.

This impacts my ability to drive too. If it strikes at work I need to uber home because my coworkers won't drive me home and no one else has a license.

If I miss one dose of any of my medications it sets off a migraine conga line qs I like to call it and I begin having migraines every 2- 3days and the longer I am off it the more migraines I steadily have.

It's hell.

My migraine medication is 208$. I am currently the only working adult for a household of three and there will soon be three children here for the summer.

Unfortunately I had serotonin syndrome a few weeks ago as some of you know and that had me out of work for a week and a half. Meaning I lost a week and a half pay check. Which may not seem like much but we live in constant poverty and are food insecure.

Literally every dollar counts in our precarious position.

The electricity company in western New York is super charging its customers so a regular electric bill for a house using less electric than average is 300- 500$ a month. Which is just a little less than our mortgage

We currently owe over a 1,000 in back pay, there isn't any relief for individuals who cannot pay the inflated rates. It's totally crazy but I need my medication. I can call the electric company and beg but I can't beg for my medicine.

My field also experiences a drop in attendence in the summer and due to my health my boss I'd trying to reduce my hours to help my body recover. That's great and all but it doesn't help me get the money I need for my injection.

My student loans are 875$ a month and I'm on the lowest payment plan and the government just sold my loans to a private company so I will be paying additional loans soon.

As you can see I have a lot on my plate but I just need that migraine medicine so I can work through it. I do a lot of passive income through survey junkies but I can't do those activities when I'm migraining.

All the images below are works in progress

Basic pencil and ink illustration

Comic book pages 15- 30 depending on content and number of pages.

if you want a comic badly and feel OK with my abilities we can work on a manageable and low price to make multiple pages happen. So bulk pages will be cheaper.

Comic book featured custom outlets??? Just resin customized outlet covers???

Can do

Painting I mean I'm trying it but if you'd like one hmu man

I tinker around with a lot of stuff

I also like to find old toys/statues and remake them so if youre interested in my raccoon art that stuff is up for new homes that will appreciate their unique beauty and love them for who they are.

Thanks for your attention and happy scrolling!!

Vraylar Cariprazine Capsules: Revolutionizing Bipolar Disorder Treatment

Bipolar disorder is a complex mental health condition that affects millions of people worldwide. Characterized by extreme mood swings, bipolar disorder can significantly disrupt daily life and relationships. However, with advancements in medical science, innovative treatments like Vraylar Cariprazine capsules have emerged, offering hope and relief to individuals struggling with this condition.

Understanding Bipolar Disorder

Types of Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder encompasses several variations, including bipolar I disorder, bipolar II disorder, and cyclothymic disorder. Each type presents distinct patterns of mood episodes, ranging from manic highs to depressive lows.

Symptoms and Challenges

The symptoms of bipolar disorder can vary widely and may include manic episodes characterized by elevated mood, impulsivity, and reduced need for sleep, as well as depressive episodes marked by sadness, fatigue, and feelings of worthlessness. Managing bipolar disorder can pose significant challenges, impacting various aspects of life, including work, relationships, and overall well-being.

The Role of Vraylar in Bipolar Disorder Treatment

Vraylar, also known by its generic name Cariprazine, belongs to a class of medications called atypical antipsychotics. It works by modulating dopamine and serotonin receptors in the brain, helping to stabilize mood and reduce the frequency and severity of manic and depressive episodes in individuals with bipolar disorder.

Mechanism of Action

Unlike traditional antipsychotics, Vraylar exhibits partial agonist activity at dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT1A receptors, as well as antagonist activity at serotonin 5-HT2A receptors. This unique mechanism of action allows for targeted modulation of neurotransmitter activity, resulting in improved mood regulation.

Efficacy and Benefits

Clinical studies have demonstrated the efficacy of Vraylar in reducing the symptoms of bipolar disorder, including manic and depressive episodes. Additionally, Vraylar has shown promise in preventing relapse and maintaining long-term stability in patients with bipolar disorder.

Dosage and Administration

Recommended Dosage

The recommended starting dose of Vraylar for the treatment of bipolar disorder is typically 1.5 mg once daily, with subsequent dose adjustments based on individual response and tolerability. Dosage may be increased to a maximum of 6 mg daily, depending on the severity of symptoms and therapeutic response.

Administration Guidelines

Vraylar capsules should be taken orally with or without food, preferably at the same time each day, to maintain consistent plasma levels. It is essential to follow the prescribed dosage and administration instructions provided by healthcare professionals to ensure optimal treatment outcomes.

Side Effects and Precautions

Common Side Effects

Like all medications, Vraylar may cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include nausea, insomnia, weight gain, and akathisia (restlessness). These side effects are usually mild to moderate in severity and may subside over time.

Serious Side Effects and Precautions

In rare cases, Vraylar may cause more severe side effects, such as tardive dyskinesia (involuntary movements), neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), and metabolic changes. It is crucial to monitor for any signs of these serious side effects and seek medical attention if they occur.

Safety and Warnings

Drug Interactions

Vraylar may interact with other medications, including antidepressants, antipsychotics, and certain antibiotics. Inform your healthcare provider about all medications, supplements, and herbal remedies you are taking to avoid potential drug interactions.

Contraindications

Vraylar is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to cariprazine or any other components of the formulation. It should also be used with caution in individuals with a history of cardiovascular disease, seizures, or metabolic disorders.

Patient Experience and Reviews

Real-Life Experiences

Many individuals living with bipolar disorder have shared their experiences with Vraylar, highlighting its effectiveness in managing symptoms and improving overall quality of life. Real-life testimonials provide valuable insights into the practical impact of Vraylar on daily functioning and emotional well-being.

User Feedback and Testimonials

User feedback and testimonials often emphasize the positive effects of Vraylar, such as mood stabilization, reduced mood swings, and enhanced social functioning. However, it is essential to recognize that individual responses to medication can vary, and not everyone may experience the same benefits.

Comparisons with Other Treatments

Contrasting Vraylar with Other Medications

When considering treatment options for bipolar disorder, healthcare providers may compare Vraylar with other medications, such as lithium, anticonvulsants, and other atypical antipsychotics. Each treatment modality has its unique benefits and potential side effects, and the choice of medication should be tailored to individual needs and preferences.

Pros and Cons

Vraylar offers several advantages over traditional antipsychotics, including a lower risk of metabolic side effects and a reduced likelihood of extrapyramidal symptoms. However, like any medication, Vraylar has its limitations and may not be suitable for everyone. It is essential to weigh the potential benefits against the risks when considering Vraylar as a treatment option.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is Vraylar used for?

Vraylar is primarily used for the treatment of bipolar disorder, specifically for the management of manic and depressive episodes.

How long does it take for Vraylar to work?

The onset of action of Vraylar may vary from person to person, but some individuals may start to notice improvements in symptoms within a few weeks of starting treatment.

Can Vraylar be used for other conditions?

While Vraylar is approved for bipolar disorder, it may also be prescribed off-label for other psychiatric.

How does tapentadol work in fever control?

The hypothalamus, located in the brain, has a thermostatic mechanism that regulates body temperature. During a fever, a protein known as pyrogen is produced. This raises the temperature set point of the hypothalamus by increasing the creation of a substance called prostaglandin. Paracetamol is a significant element of Tapentadol. It functions as an antipyretic and suppresses prostaglandin formation. Paracetamol relieves fever via increasing heat loss (through sweating and cutaneous vasodilation) and hence aids in the resetting of the hypothalamus thermostat.

Tapentadol is indicated for what?

Tapentadol is an opioid drug used to treat moderate to severe pain. Tapentadol ER tablets are used to treat chronic pain that is too severe to be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers. The FDA has classed it as a restricted substance due to its involvement in recreational purposes aside from medical use. This implies that whether you want to buy tapentadol online or from a local pharmacy, you must have a valid prescription. Tapentadol use, in contrast to other opioids, has been granted a green light due to its lower tolerability and safer profile for a set period of time, even after being an opioid. Tapentadol dose should be kept between 50 mg and 400 mg; beyond this limit increases the risk of dependence, addiction, severe adverse effects, withdrawal, and abuse. You can purchase Tapentadol 100mg online safely from a legit and trustworthy online pharmacy.

Why is Tapentadol a popular treatment for pain relief?

As previously stated, your physician may administer the medicine in a variety of dosage levels based on your specific needs. Despite the fact that the recommended amount is 100mg, you should always see your doctor before taking the tablet on your own. Following administration, the medication functions in the brain, altering how your body perceives and responds to pain in any of its components, such as after an injury, accident, or surgery.

This impact is practically immediate, and it works best when the first signals of discomfort are observed. If Tapentadol 100mg has previously helped you, ask your doctor to re-prescribe it the next time you're in pain or in a similar situation.

In what dose should it be used?

Tapentadol can be used in a variety of doses, depending on the severity of the pain. Therapy is tailored to each individual, taking into account his or her previous health issues. Immediate releases of 50 to 100mg can be done as needed, every 5-6 hours. The second dose can be given just an hour after the first. The maximum daily dose should be 700mg.

Orally, 50mg extended-release pills can be taken twice a day. This can be increased to 50 mg three times each day. The maximum daily dose for extended releases is 500mg. Conversions from immediate-release to extended-release must be done with your doctor's approval.

Things to avoid while using tapentadol

You should avoid consuming alcohol while using Tapentadol because the side effects can be fatal.

Tapentadol should not be combined with allergy, asthma, or blood pressure drugs.

While taking tapentadol tablets, do not take any other opioids.

Stay away from sedatives, sleeping pills, and muscle relaxants.

Sleeping medications, muscle relaxants, and other sedatives should be avoided.

Side effects of tapentadol

Tapentadol can cause allergic reactions in some people, thus it is advised to seek medical attention if the user is experiencing chest pain, breathing difficulty, or facial swellings.

Users may experience dizziness, agitation, seizures, and even low cortisol levels. In some long-term users, it can also cause impotence and infertility. Users who exhibit symptoms of serotonin syndrome should seek medical attention right away. Fever, hallucinations, muscle stiffness, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea are all common symptoms.

Purchasing tapentadol online

Tapentadol is an opioid medicine, hence it must be purchased with a prescription. Because the drug is only available in limited quantities in medical stores, it is always preferable to order Tapentadol 100mg online. Online retailers often provide doorstep delivery services, which is beneficial to people who are unable to leave their homes. Many internet suppliers are available, and the top online stores offer TapenTadol cash on delivery options. Tapen Tadol COD(Nucynta) services are available throughout India, with quick delivery.

In order to obtain high-quality medications, you should choose a reputable online pharmacy. We offer a wide array of treatments, alternatives, and much more along with quality. So, if you're in pain, order Tapentadol online right away.

could you do 1, 6, 7, 9, and 14 for almond cookie?

I HOPE YOU PISS YOUR PANTS

1. on a scale of 1-10, how ticklish are they?

Almond cookie is a 7 out of 10.

6. are they more often a lee or ler, generally?

He's 50/50 ler and lee. He tickles Walnut all the time and Latte tickles him all the time. It's a neverending cycle.

7. who is someone in their life that they tickle often?

He tickles Walnut on a daily basis. Its his daily dose of serotonin to make his kid laugh. On a less daily basis, he tickles Latte usually after she tickles him first.

9. does the word “tickle” or any variation of embarrass them?

Only when Latte's teasing him, otherwise it doesn't bother him.

14. would they ever purposefully bug a friend/partner/sibling into tickling them, and if so, how would they go about it?

Absolutely not. He definitely tries to lure Latte into tickling him sometimes by revealing tickle spots, pestering her if she's not busy, etc.

heated times - Dan Ticktum

Y/N x Dan Ticktum

Theme: Smutish, Teasing, Touching, Grabbing (not too explicit)

having a steamy shower with Dan x

word count: 1260+

Summertime isn’t your favorite time of the year. Sure, the sun is shining, giving your body the much-needed dose of vitamin D, a serotonin boost and everyone is smiling out of happiness. Still, the downside of it all, are sweaty days at work, without an air-conditioned office building, you spend your whole day sitting at the open window, combined with a massive fan desperately trying to stay cool. However, the way home alone is enough for your clothes to stick to your skin and you just feel icky.

Luckily, you just enter your house a little out of town, with working air conditioning installed. You let out a huge sigh in relief when you feel the cool air all around you when you hear someone’s muffled groans. Checking the watch hanging above you, you remember what time it is, Dan’s daily workout time. You’ve met him about a year ago, out in a club when he approached you. His looks, his voice, and his beautiful British accent were enough for him to sway you in a heartbeat.

It didn’t take long for you to start dating, and after all, you even moved in with him just a month ago. Feeling your whole body ache underneath the boiling sun outside, and the oven-like feeling in your car, you make your way through the hallway, letting your bag drop down to the floor, just beside the wardrobe. The closer you get towards the living room, the more you can hear him muttering things underneath his breath, his groans, and the faint sound of music from his earphones.

You enter the room, scanning it for your boyfriend when you see him doing sit-ups on the floor, a colorful mat underneath him. Dan’s only wearing tight white Adidas shorts, socks, and nothing else. His hair is pretty but messed up, and his body looks better than ever. Just then, as if he’d hear you let out a soft sigh, he turns his face towards you, his face softening quickly. Dan removes his earphones, leaves them on the floor, and gets up, sporting a wide grin as he walks towards you.

Doing the same, you lean into him, embracing his warm but soft lips right on yours. He kisses you once, then twice before separating from you, running a hand through his wet hair. “Hey, babé.” You say, reaching for his hand, holding him close to you. “Hey.” He smirks, his eyes stuck at yours. Then, his face softens again, as his eyes wander down your body. “Are you okay?” Dan says, obviously aware of your current state. “It’s just so hot.” You groan softly, intertwining his fingers with yours, pulling him closer again.

He embraces your hand, running his thumb across the back of your hand. “I know, it’s better in here.” You nod when his eyes meet yours again. Smirking, you squeeze his hand, before you start to pout playfully. “I don’t like that look on your face.” He says, holding back a laugh. Ignoring him, you lean into him, steadying yourself against his bare chest, running a finger across his skin. “Did you install the shower yet?” You whisper teasingly, as your eyes follow your finger slowly making its way along with his pecs.

Dan grunts happily, placing a hand on yours, holding you in place. “Luckily, I did.” He says contently, and at the sound of his voice, your face meets his once again, his eyes shining brightly in excitement. Squinting over his shoulder, through the windows you see the shower cabin he put up in your garden. It’s basically just a shower rod, with wooden fences all around it, so no one can spy on you that easily. Turning your attention back to Dan, you catch him licking his lower lip. “Good boy.” You whisper teasingly, leaning in even more so your lips are just inches away from him.

He expects your gentle touch, but instead, you stop, your lips barely brushing over his, as you lean in closer to whisper into his ear. “Why don’t we try it out?” You breathe into his ear, sending shivers down his spine. “Yeah.” Dan only manages to breathe quietly, while you stroke his chest, further down to his abs, feeling all of his muscles tense at your slightest touch. Satisfied with yourself, you separate from him, throwing your hair over your shoulder. “I just need to drop this.” You say exhaustedly as you slide out of your shirt, and jeans, leaving them right there on the floor.

Dan watches you undressing, biting his upper lip while he runs both of his hands down his body, his fingers brushing over his shorts and thighs. “That's so hot.” He moans breathlessly, his eyes wandering all over your body when you’re standing there, only wearing your bra and panties. Winking, you return the favor, enjoying the sight of his whole body getting more and more into it. Not wasting any more time, you take his hand, kiss him once before you lead him into the garden, the sun still shining brightly.

Now, you’re standing underneath the shower, when Dan turns it on, the cold water instantly pouring out of the showerhead, the two of you groaning excitedly in unison. Enjoying the drops of water running down your body, you lean your head back, running both of your hands along with your hair, feeling every fiber of your body relaxing slowly. Closing your eyes, you let out another huge sigh when you feel Dan’s hands on your waist. He carefully approaches you, his fingers gently stroking your skin.

“This feels good.” He says, his voice huskier and rougher than before. Nodding, you open your eyes, catching him watching you closely. Your whole body reacts in a second, feeling the tension rise immensely, as he leans into you, kissing you again. This time, however, it’s a way more passionate, longing kiss, with his hands still stroking your waist. Giving in to him, you wrap your arms around his strong back, steadying yourself while he gets rougher and rougher. “Dan.” You smirk, separating from him quickly to take a deep breath, but he doesn’t seem to care.

He starts to kiss your neck, again and again, even starting to grind on you with his whole body. Enjoying this a lot, you return the favor once more, moving your body simply in sync with his, matching every one of his moves easily. Now, you let your hands run around his upper body back to his chest, stroking his pecs, teasingly pinching his hard nipples. “Fuck.” He moans against your neck, the sound of his aroused voice giving you goosebumps. “It feels good.” You smirk, feeling his hands now moving to your butt, the tips of his fingers sliding into your panties, securely holding you in place.

“Don’t stop now,” Dan demands, bending his hips against yours, rubbing the swelling already formed in his shorts against your crotch. “Naughty, aren’t we?” You hiss, running your hands further down his chest, right in between your bodies, teasingly stroking his bulge, just enough to get him even more into it. Dan leans his head back, to let out a long, loud moan just when you grab him playfully. Trying to regain his composure, he locks eyes with you and tilts his head. “You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?” He growls, slowly shaking his head.

“Aren’t you?” You raise your eyebrows, your hand still at his bulge, stroking him tenderly. Nodding, he leans into you, kissing you lovingly. Together, you shower for a little while longer, just enjoying each other’s company.

Title: It Goes Like This (It Starts Like This Universe)

Rating: Teen and Up

Fandom: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Vento Aureo

Pairing(s): BruAbba

Summary: Abbacchio isn’t a morning person. Never has been. He prefers the comfort that comes with a blanket of darkness to the bright hours of the early morning. There’s less eyes. Less people. Less performance. Unfortunately, he’s gone and fallen in love with a man that believes that the day begins before the sun has even broken the horizon.

Notes: This is for the first place to my 300 Follower Giveaway! @bucciaratisfishmarket requested BruAbba set in my It Starts Like This verse with some disabled slice of life/morning routine. Ngl, I was super excited to get to do something in this verse, so thank you!

Thank you to everyone that followed and participated, and a special thanks to @bucciaratisfishmarket! I hope you like your fic!

Additional Notes: Also, the pill organizer described in the fic can be found on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1022344896/boneyard-real-bones-weekly-7-day-pill It's cool and beautiful, and I probably don't do it justice. Definitely go check it out!

Abbacchio isn’t a morning person. Never has been. He prefers the comfort that comes with a blanket of darkness to the bright hours of the early morning. There’s less eyes. Less people. Less performance. Unfortunately, he’s gone and fallen in love with a man that believes that the day begins before the sun has even broken the horizon. It’s leftover from Bruno’s days helping his father with the boat, and, later, his days running Polpo’s errands. Chasing people down for money and answers. What comfort Abbacchio can find in the night, Bruno can find just fine in the light hours of the morning.

Fortunately for both of them, Abbacchio is more than capable of running on a schedule, of waking up at the same time everyday and forcing his mind and body into cooperation. He did it for years for school and then the academy. It’s nothing he isn’t used to, and he’s happiest when Bruno is happy, no matter what that entails, which is how he finds himself waking up to Bruno’s second alarm before the man can snooze it again.

The thing about Bruno’s new medication—a pill large in size and equally ridiculous in the length of its name—is that it makes it damn near impossible for him to get going in the morning the way he used to. Before, Bruno practically operated on his own internal clock. Waking up before his alarm had even gone off and fetching them both their first cup of caffeine; it used to be the thing that made greeting the day a bit more tolerable.

Now, Bruno snoozes. Alarm after alarm, until they run out. He’s tried music, absurd volumes, and even relocating the damned clock halfway across the room. None of it helps, so Leone compensates. He wakes up around the second or third alarm, turns the rest off, and kisses Bruno’s cheek before he rolls out of bed.

Sometimes there’s a quiet plea, “five more minutes”, that endears Abbacchio so completely that his mood settles, not nearly as bitchy as he could be upon reaching the kitchen and finding someone else already there.

“Why are you awake?” Okay, so. Still bitchy. But he doesn’t sneer his words quite as bad.

Narancia, for his part, looks completely startled by the prospect of someone else existing at such an ungodly hour, but he manages to avoid outright screaming. That’s a plus. Abbacchio isn’t sure his head could take it this early. “What are you doing?”

“I asked first.”

Narancia narrows his eyes, but he caves within seconds. “I got a test in like two hours, and Fugo’s gonna kill me if I don’t pass.”

Abbacchio snorts at the idea, “Yeah, he will.”

“Not helping!”

“Never said I planned to,” Abbacchio points out as he starts rummaging through the cabinets for two mugs. He sets them on the counter and gets to work brewing their coffee. Decaf these days, for Bruno’s sake. Abbacchio could keep drinking his usual, but he takes solace in the bitter taste of his coffee instead. It seems kinder that way, especially when he knows how much Bruno’s been struggling without caffeine.

“Why are you awake?”

“I’m always awake this early,” next is breakfast, which is easier said than done. It’s rare that Abbacchio wakes up with a stomach for anything. Too many years of skipping breakfast in favor of a bottle did a number on him, but it’s not optional anymore. Neither one of them will be able to keep their meds down without something to eat, so he picks through the refrigerator until he comes up with fruit and yogurt as his best solution.

“Really?” Narancia asks, wrinkling his nose, “Why?”

“Ask Bruno,” Abbacchio says, dismissive. He’s really not in the mood to talk to people that aren’t currently snoozing in his bed.

“You’re not much fun in the morning.”

“Am I ever?”

“Touché.”

Abbacchio snorts. He should be offended, but he knows the kid is being a smartass. It’s his own fault for setting himself up. “Why don’t you go bother Fugo? I’m sure he’ll be happy to help you study.”

“Have you ever tried waking Fugo up?”

“No, can’t say that I have.” That’s always been Bruno’s job, assuming that Fugo hadn’t already woken up on his own.

“It’s too early to get stabbed.”

“Touché.”

They go back and forth for a while longer. At least until Abbacchio’s patience runs out, and he’s finished putting breakfast together. He dismisses himself with little warning and doesn’t feel the least bit guilty when the kid looks a little startled by the abruptness of his departure. He has things to get done for the day, and those things don’t necessarily include being part of Narancia’s obvious effort to procrastinate.

“Bruno,” Abbacchio calls when he steps back into their room after Moody opens the door for him. “Your five minutes are up.”

“Five more?” Bruno asks, voice muffled. His head is barely visible with only a tuft of hair sticking out from a pile of blankets. It’s cute, and Abbacchio is a complete sucker for giving in.

“Last one, tesoro,” Abbacchio warns as he sets Bruno’s cup and food down on the bedside table.

There’s a muffled reply that might be a quiet thanks, though it’s almost impossible to tell with the way Bruno pulls the blankets even tighter around himself.

Abbacchio rummages through the drawer of his nightstand until he finds what he’s looking for before taking up a spot at the end of the bed with his food and drink in hand. He sips at the decaf slowly, wrinkling his nose at the first taste. God, he misses caffeine. As expected, he doesn’t feel much better about his first bite of homemade parfait (and he can almost hear Polnareff’s protest at his calling it that). The rest goes down about the same, but the motion is mechanical at that point. One bite after the other with the occasional sip from his mug to wash it all down until everything is gone.

Abbacchio sets the dishes on the floor and reaches for the pill organizer sitting on the bed beside him. He absently runs his fingers over the lid, where small bones have been set in resin. He can still remember the first time he saw it. The black shine had caught his eye first, but, on closer examination, the thing that had convinced him to buy the organizer had been the mouse bones, delicately placed and striking against the background.

What he hadn’t realized then is that the little organizer would a significant adjustment to his daily routine. Having a week’s worth of medication in one place, already sectioned in dosed amounts, had significantly increased his medication compliance. Oddly enough, it’s had a rather hefty impact on his overall mental health. Now, when anti-inflammatories and bronchodilators and steroids are part of his daily regiment as much as his SSRI’s, it’s even more vital for him to consistently get his meds in. Otherwise, the consequences tend to be pneumonia and an unwanted hospital trip with a round of antibiotics and even stronger steroids. And that’s to say nothing of what happens when he’s running low on serotonin.

He’s caught up in his own thoughts when Bruno hooks his chin over his shoulder and peers down at the little organizer.

“I never did ask you if those are real,” Bruno muses quietly.

“I thought you were taking five more.”

“‘m awake,” Bruno answers, clearly half-asleep.

Abbacchio huffs a soft, amused laugh. He turns his head to press a kiss to the side of Bruno’s nose. “Sure you are, amore.”

“I am.”

“M’hm,” Abbacchio smiles, reflecting the expression on Bruno’s face, though his is notably less sleep-depressed. Bruno looks a lot like a light gust of wind might knock him out, and it’s so damn endearing that Abbacchio can barely handle it. Instead, he looks back down at the pill organizer and answers Bruno’s earlier question, “They are. Real, I mean.”

“They’re lovely,” Bruno says, and he means it. Odd as some might find Abbacchio’s taste, Bruno has always found beauty in it. “Perhaps I should get one.”

“Might be a good idea.” It would be easier to see if Bruno ever missed a dose, and it would certainly be easier to avoid that disaster all together. “There are other options. You could go with something—oceanic, maybe?”

Bruno hums at the thought. “I think I’d like that.”

“I’ll keep an eye out,” by which Abbacchio means that he’ll actively go looking for one. Anything to make Bruno’s life a touch easier.

“Oh, you brought breakfast,” Bruno says, moving away from Abbacchio to peer curiously at the morning’s offerings. “You’re entirely too kind.”

Abbacchio huffs a laugh at that, “For all that you’ve done for us? Hardly.” He pops open the side hatch of his organizer and dumps the day’s pills into his hand. Abbacchio pulls a face at the number of them and looks down at his mug. Right, he had meant to save a sip.

“Here,” Bruno offers his own with a smile. “We’ll get more in a bit.”

“If you’re sure...” Abbacchio could always go get his own, but he has a feeling that doing so will result in more small talk, and he’s not quite up for that yet.

“I am,” Bruno reassures him before taking up the bowl of yogurt and fruit in absence of his coffee. “Just leave enough for me to take mine.”
