#make sure you have the (NOW) mandatory ID

[blondieeu]

morning rituals. bakugou k.

when you got pregnant, bakugou started to make it more of a habit to tell you goodbye properly before he leaves the house.

Before, after he was all ready — belt buckled, bag packed, he’d only mumble a quick “later”, and that was only if he knew you were awake — but now, before he even seriously leaves the house for good he’s kissing you in between his morning routine, rubbing and kissing at your growing baby.

you lay on your shared bed, cuddling with some big body pillow with your belly laid on it, watching your man get ready in the early hours of the morning. He shouldn’t be working, but he insists to work until the day of his mandatory paternity leave.

“Why don’t you just stay home? Y’already got the biggest job of your life coming up” your hand came up to support your head for a better view of him adjusting his hero gear in the mirror, luckily you did — catching a small smirk from him. He glances at you through the mirror. “Yea, like I’d just sit around here and do nothing. Gotta make sure he’s got everything he needs.” He picked up his belt from his side of the dresser.

“He?” “He.” You snicker from the bed and he turns around, facing you fully. “What’s so funny? We’re having a boy.” Bakugou’s usually hard eyes soften when they catch your swollen belly slightly hidden by the pillow. “I know we’re having a girl..but we can always try again though” you wiggle your eyebrows at him and he rolls his eyes.

The thought of leaving you every morning was starting to weigh on him, even if you didn’t notice and he was too stubborn to outright admit it. “You good?” He asked gruffly before crouching down next to you at the edge of the bed, pecking your lips.

One of his hands reaches out to you almost instinctively, resting on your stomach. It’s like second nature to him now — after all these months of your baby growing. His fingers trace gentle patterns across your warm skin as he felt the occasional kicks and shifts of ‘him’.

“Mm-hmm” you hum placing your hand over his. “But.. id be better if you stayed at home with me” This time, you were the one pecking his lips. Bakugou huffs and rolls his eyes again in a playful manner, but there’s no mistaking the underlying guilt flickering behind them. “Be home before ya know it. Just got the rest of the month babe, then I’m home for good.”

And before you could protest or even get another word out, he leans in again to press a kiss on your forehead, and then one to your belly. “Be nice to mommy, squirt” he mutters against it, his voice uncharacteristically tender and loving.

And just like that, the front door clicks shut and he’s out the door for the day, leaving you in a peaceful silence — already counting the hours before your man comes home again.

Blondieeu xx

Not disagreeing with OP but this is also a reminder that you should check you are registered to vote. The next elections are next may and the registration deadline is coming up. Things are shit, its only locals, none of the candidates are great, but I'll vote for (almost) anyone at the moment just to give the tories a kick. The deadline to register to vote is the 17th April for England Wales and Scotland. And the 28th April for Northern Ireland. Go to https://www.gov.uk/register-to-vote to register.

But, also, while I agree this is a transparent attempt to disenfranchise voters, if you don't have a passport there are other valid IDs (look, put aside agreeing with it or not its useful to know).

Here is a list of acceptable alternatives - as stated by the electoral commission website:

Driving licence issued by the UK, any of the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, or an EEA state (this includes a provisional driving licence)

A Blue Badge

Older Person’s Bus Pass funded by the Government of the United Kingdom

Disabled Person’s Bus Pass funded by the Government of the United Kingdom

Oyster 60+ Card funded by the Government of the United Kingdom

Freedom Pass

Scottish National Entitlement Card

60 and Over Welsh Concessionary Travel Card

Disabled Person’s Welsh Concessionary Travel Card

Senior SmartPass issued in Northern Ireland

Registered Blind SmartPass or Blind Person’s SmartPass issued in Northern Ireland

War Disablement SmartPass issued in Northern Ireland

60+ SmartPass issued in Northern Ireland

Half Fare SmartPass issued in Northern Ireland

Identity card bearing the Proof of Age Standards Scheme hologram (a PASS card)

Biometric immigration document

Ministry of Defence Form 90 (Defence Identity Card)

National identity card issued by an EEA state

Electoral Identity Card issued in Northern Ireland

Voter Authority Certificate

Anonymous Elector's Document According to the voting commission if your photo ID is out of date as long is its on this list it should still be valid.

Did you know the cost of a UK passport has risen over the past few months? It now costs £82.50-£93 (+£9 for photos) to replace a missing passport, and takes 3-6 weeks, or £155 for the fast track (1 week) service, which requires you to visit 1 of 7 passport offices (my closest is over 100 miles away, in a different country).

Did you know 13.5% of people in the UK don't have a passport?

Our government recently adopted US-style voter ID requirements. The main form of photo ID accepted other than passports are drivers' licenses, but you need a passport to get a provisional licence in the first place. I'm not sure how aware people are of this change in policy. You also can't seek most employment without photo ID (which in my circumstance will cost over a third of my monthly unemployment benefit, which is all I have).

Did you know wether or not you're on the electoral register effects your credit score, too?

Feel like the tories are really trying to disenfranchise as many people as possible 🙃

[spyeriasecret]

and now it's time to play WOULD GRAVITY FALLS CHARACTERS RESPECT YOUR PRONOUNS (pre-weirdmageddon) (non gravity falls fans take this as a sign.)

DIPPER PINES - not sure he'd understand the concept immediately, but would catch on quick because he understands what it's like not being called something you want to be called

MABEL PINES - YES. no question about it. there's so many things i could say here. she'd correct herself for THINKING the wrong pronouns.

STANLEY PINES - understands and correctly genders you for all the wrong, crime-related reasons! bro is the king of preferred names. you say "hey i'm actually exam/ple" and he'll be like "AH. I GET IT. WINK. DO YOU ALSO WANT TO BE NOTIFIED WHEN THE COPS ARE IN TOWN" like i cant overstate this. if you say hey i want to change my identity he will pull out a stack of fake IDs and have you pick one. he's a little confused but he got the spirit!

STANFORD PINES - if you ever need a guy to not grasp a modern-day concept, call this guy! he'd do his best, but only because he wants to be nice. he does Not understand. give him a little bit of systematic exposure and he'll get it! he will take a scientific approach! but he'll get it! somebody get this man 2024ccs of woke liberalism stat

SOOS RAMIREZ - calls you dude and bro. does not call you anything but dude and bro. he knows what you are and he respects that! but let's be real honest here.

WENDY CORDUROY - incredibly supportive and super chill. if you were still in the closet, she'd do the mouth zip motion thing. you get it. she's so awesome about you

WADDLES - oink?

GIDEON GLEEFUL - yes to your face! no behind closed doors. he'd probably call you "that queer" while villain monologuing in his room . i can hear it in his voice

BUD GLEEFUL - THE gravity falls homophobic youth pastor let's be for real he'd say "it's not too late to turn to God" as a christian trans person i'm pretty sure God thinks about lgbtq+ kids and fraudulent capitalists on two separate ends of a very long line

SHERIFF BLUBS & DEPUTY DURLAND - do i even have to say it. i'm gonna say it. solid top and DEAD SERIOUS bottom. they ARE the loud and proud gravity falls lgbtq+ community. if they're transphobic i'll eat my socks.

CANDY CHIU - i know what you guys are thinking . "oh candy's so sweet of course she'd respect your pronouns!" CANDY MOTHERFUCKING CHIU WILL NOT ONLY RESPECT YOUR PRONOUNS, BUT SHE WILL GO OUT OF HER WAY TO USE THEM AT ANY POSSIBLE MOMENT. if she sees somewhere to say your pronouns, she will DO it. because she LOVES YOU. and also she'd fight anyone who gets it wrong!

GRENDA GRENDINATOR - trans. she loves you. will help candy fight anybody who gets your pronouns wrong.

FIDDLEFORD MCGUCKET - honestly this is a hard one. he could ACKNOWLEDGE! your pronouns! but other than that i'm not sure. pre-memory wipe, i think he'd feel a little weird about it, but it would become nothing to him eventually

PACIFICA NORTHWEST - "ew. what the fuck." and then suddenly she's asking you how you figured that out. For No Reason

ROBBIE VALENTINO - calls you a faggot. is it because he is homophobic? because he is one? because he hates you specifically? the world will never know

BLENDIN BLANDIN - he lives in the year 207̃012. i find it hard to believe they haven't made respecting pronouns mandatory yet.

AGENTS POWERS & TRIGGER - are the pronouns on your legal documents????? it's not funny stop laughign

TYLER CUTEBIKER - gay. his pronouns are get/it. he will respect you (in his own ways)

LAZY SUSAN - forgets you had the wrong pronouns in the first place. she respects you by default

TIME BABY - does not refer to you

BILL CIPHER - he would call you your preferred pronouns but DON'T get it twisted. he does not respect you as a living thing. it isn't bigoted (that would be ironic considering that whole sixer thing) he just doesn't. maybe he'd make HEAVY fun of you for good measure but he's got to dig at somebody somehow. also were pronouns even real in his dimension anything could happen man ????

SHMEBULOCK - shmebulock

(did i forget anybody? let me know)

[before-it-felt-like-a-sin]

thoughts on going to parties with nat? like the party in the pilot episode, jackie defo labels these parties ‘compulsory team building’ in order to get the whole team to come (i can hear shauna rolling her eyes)

omg imagine pre-dating and there’s a game of 7 minutes in heaven and you spin the bottle and it lands on her and she can see you’re all nervous and stuff, so after jackie shoves you into a wardrobe or something she says you don’t have to do this but of course you say it’s fine and you will, (cus she’s so damn hot) she’d defo be gentle with you anyway and ease you into it. it’s like canon for me that she cups cheeks as she kisses, im pretty sure she does that when kissing travis in season 1?

even imagine going to these stupid high school parties whilst dating and just sitting to the side of a room with her and making fun of jeff and randy being idiotic and eventually being dragged to the dance floor to dance with the rest of the team, or just blowing everyone off for drunken walks round the neighbourhood, eventually crashing in your room

i clearly have a lot to say about this topic lol so if you ever want more thoughts i have millliiiiooooooonsssssss

-lucy dacus anon <3333

omg yes send more whenever, id love to write a full fic on the concept

showing up to the stupid party because Jackie said it was mandatory (everyone knows that it's not really, but today isn't a day you want to piss Jackie off.). You're there for about ten minutes before you're plotting ways to leave without anyone (Jackie) noticing. Before you can do anything, though, one of the Yellowjackets, probably Jackie or Shauna, but maybe Van, comes and finds you. Whoever it is drags you to a circle of the other Yellowjackets, and you immediately know what's happening.

But Nat's there, and part of you hopes that she'll spin the bottle and it'll land on you. So you sit your ass down, ready to humor your teammates. Worst-case scenario, you have to sit with somebody in a closet for seven minutes. Best-case scenario? You and Nat kissing.

When Nat spins the bottle, it lands on Van, which is both a disappointment and a relief. You're obviously sad it didn't land on you, but you know that those two aren't going to end up kissing.

An excruciating half an hour later, it's finally your turn. Your hands are shaking as you spin, and you're begging the universe for the bottle to land on Nat. By some sort of miracle, it does. But now you're freaking out, because what if she doesn't want to kiss you? Or It's a bad kiss?

Before you have a real chance to react, Jackie's shoving you in Lottie's giant pantry, and you're stuck. Nat can clearly tell you're nervous, so she's joking, trying to get you to relax, making sure you know there's no pressure, you don't have to do anything if you're not feeling it. She won't be offended.

Once she's pretty sure you're calm enough to handle it, she takes your face in her hands and looks at you for a second, giving you time to tell her to stop. When you don't she kisses you. You're expecting roughness, but she's surprisingly soft. Probably not wanting to freak you out any more.

You don't really talk about it for a couple weeks until you like actually end up dating.

BUT YES at parties just drinking with her, literally judging everyone around you because you're drunk and it's fun. Sharing drinks, shotgunning sharing a a cigarette or a blunt. #needthat.

Sometimes, if you're feeling energetic, you'll make her dance to the pop music that she claims to hate. If you're tired or overwhelmed or have just bored, you leave and wander (or drive, if one of you is sober) around the neighborhood.

At the end of the night you always end up crashing at your house, and you always make sure Nat has water and Advil so that she doesn't feel like dying in the morning.

curly hair 101

hii :))

since "curls" is literally in my username, its only natural that I post about something for the curly girls :D

so why not start with a beginner's guide to curly hair :)

·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●·°●

in this guide

hair types/ curl patterns

wash day routine + products

regular hair care

hair styles + cuts

hair types

soo first of all i think its helpful if you get a gist of what hair type you have, e.g 2c, 3b, 4b etc...

its not mandatory and doesn't really mean anything but like it definitely aids when you're looking for haircair & inspo with hairstyles and haircuts and all that jazz 🤗 [ <- jazz hands :) ]

here's a chart to help you

obviously do some of your own research if you're unsure- this isn't very in-depth and doesn't use irl examples

also keep in mind that you can have multiple, and a wide range of types on one head LOLL like mine ranges from 2C -> 3C 🫣

(PS: this guide will be tailored to type 2 -> 3 hair just because that's what I have experience with and don't want to potentially ruin anyone's type 4 hair 😭 but if aspects of this apply then feel free to apply them 😇)

wash day routine + products

alrighty so i see some overcomplication/people being scared of curly hair washing- like looking at porosity and whatnot but IMO its really not that difficult

the only thing you really need to worry about for the washing aspect is getting moisturising (curly recommended) shampoo & conditioner, just cause if you don't it could dry out your hair and have a pretty dodgy finished product 😬 (I use Umberto Giannini for this)

washing is pretty standard:

wet your hair thoroughly, so that no part is dry

shampoo round 1, make sure to scrub thoroughly to get rid of any dirt and grime 🙈

rinse

shampoo round 2, this should turn your hair into its own bubble bath 🫧

rinse

condition, rake through your hair and make sure it is everywhere

let sit for a little bit, ~2 mins maybe

rinse

and thats it :))

don't use a regular towel, use a microfiber towel if you're using one at all so that all the moisture isn't drained from your hair before the rest of the products

now for the curly hair routine:

start with leave-in conditioner and run it through the entirety of your hair - I use Garnier leave-in, like the big tub

then run some curl cream through your hair and scrunch it in, make sure there is an even application throughout all the hair - I use the Shea Moisture curl cream

~ this next bit is optional because its a gel cast + styling but honestly id totally recommend going the extra mile for it cause it holds your curls for longer and makes ur hair softer ~

apply curly gel to your hair and scrunch it in, I use Aussie curl gel

for styling, I take the middle -> top sections of my hair, take some extra gel and finger coil the curls

let your hair air dry or diffuse

once completely dry, take some hair oil and scrunch it through your hair and separate any coils, I use argan oil

then you're done :))

regular hair care

there isnt really much to say here tbh

only that

if you need to refresh your curls, you should be able to do it just by finger-coiling with water

DON'T brush your hair while dry, it causes breakage

if you sweat, your hair will most likely get frizzy

to tie your hair use a scrunchie

sleeping with a bonnet helps reduce frizz but icl I don't 🫣

hair styles + cuts

okay let me preface this section by saying PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEEE do some research about curly stylists in your area, I promise it will be worth it because curly hair cutting requires special training (despite the fact we've probably all cut our hair ourselves at some point 🙈)

now here are some things I usually ask for in a haircut:

a trim off the edges to keep my hair healthy (I have hair down past my shoulders)

2 or 3 layers to keep volume around my head so it doesn't look like a flat landslide...

some long bangs at the front to frame my face

obviously thats just me so do some extra research and see what you'd like

not much, but here are some hairstyles i usually do for everyday wear:

hair down (obviously 🤗)

high ponytail/bun with a few curls at the front

half up half down with a few curls at the front

thats basically all the basics 🙃

i know its hard to start on a curly hair journey especially if you don't know what you're doing, so if you are (or aren't) i hope this was able to help you in some shape or form 🫶🤗

Mandatory (forced) therapy session with Harper where he gets you to admit how pent up you are (unknowingly from the aphrodisiacs he prescribed you) and fucks you like it’s a kindness from him

(I love love love Harper. id fuck him even if I wasn't drugged to hell.)

AMAB harper | GN pc 

Weeks of planning had led up to this. Literally weeks. You had been so stubborn and difficult always whining about this town and its problems insisting you didn't want any of the attention you were constantly showered with. Harper could tell that was a lie. Or at least a half-truth

So Harper had prescribed you something. Just a little pill to make you relax. Make you more open to receiving attention. But you were still so stubborn. 

He used the dosage but you still resisted. You had to be pent up to hell by now and Harper was getting impatient with you.

But today you were off. As you sat across from him and squirmed on the cold exam table. he could tell that today was the day it all came crashing down.

So he took his time. He sat across from you and thumbed through his notes carefully. Every time you tried to speak he held his finger up and motioned for you to wait. Every twitch squirm and whine he caught out of the corner of his eye and made him smirk to himself. 

You desperately tried to rub the blush from your cheeks as you waited for your doctor to address you. You needed help. You came to him for help. To lower your anxiety about this town and its issues and instead, it seems that things have only gotten steadily worse. 

"Now. What do you need today?" harper asks as he looks you over. As if it isn't obvious what's wrong with you. 

Now that's the hard part. You need new meds- that's for sure but for now, you would like him to deal with the heat that's been building in your core for weeks. Leaving you sleepless and needy. But how are you supposed to ask for that? 

"I need..." you trail off but Harper holds the silence waiting for you to admit it. He needs you to say it so he can keep his doctor's facade. He needs you to admit what you want so he can keep pretending he's not the one who pushed you this far. That it's not his fault you're so desperate.

You reach over and grab his coat your hands are shaking a bit as you pull on it. "P-please?" You ask looking up at him with big eyes. Harper's heart skips a beat and he presses a gloved hand to yours threatening to push you away. 

"'Please' what? I can't help someone that's not straightforward with me-" Harper says. But you can feel his breathing pick up. He's grinning at you. It's a game now. He wants you to admit that you want him. Otherwise, he'll leave you on your own.

Neither of you budges unwilling to make the first move. But it gets too much for you. And you lean in to kiss Harper. He seems delighted as he pushes you back against the exam table he's grinning as he shakes his head at you. 

"This is terrible behavior on your part-" he mocks as he pins your arms down to your sides. "But I guess. If you have no one else to go to for your issues I can help you out. I am a doctor after all. And I'm nothing if not generous." 

It's not quite as funny to you as you press your body into harpers and whining louder. Harper covers your mouth with his hand pressing you down more into the table. 

He pulls at your clothes eagerly as he is even more desperate to get at you He might tear up as he presses another kiss to your lips pressing his tongue in. You give in as he toys with you you're nothing more than a doll for him to play with.

You're so got and pent up and whiney that your climax comes fast. Harper looks down at the mess you've made of his gloves and chuckles a bit before removing them with his teeth. 

"That's just the first part of your treatment."

Could you write yandere headcanons for Arkham Riddler x male reader? If you don't do Arkham then BTAS?

sure thing! so far ive only played arkham knight (didnt realize it was the last installment til i was halfway through the plot) so thatll be where im drawing from

yandere!arkham!riddler x male!reader

-now, eddie is 100% bi (fight me), so hes not surprised when hes into a guy

-he is, however, surprised that hes actually romantically interested in someone enough to keep an eye on him as he navigates gotham

-this man... is interesting? and intelligent? that cant be possible, everyone but edward is a dribbling moron!

-but here you are, solving a few of the riddles hes placed around the city. he cant let you take the trophies, theyre for batman, but now hes certainly paying attention

-a few months after he first notices you, youre just go about your day when you notice a neon green question mark down an alley. another one of those trophies! might as well solve the puzzle, even if you dont get to keep it

-you solve the puzzle and go to try and grab the trophy, not expecting anything but a slight shock, but youre instead knocked to the ground from the voltage

-you wake up in default gothamite mode: tied to a chair in the middle of an empty room. of course, it had to happen eventually. soon, the riddler himself comes in to speak with you

-"good, youre awake. if i had to beat myself in chess again, id go completely insane"

-and he... sits down. sets up a chessboard on the table in front of you, and unties your hands. you play, mostly out of fear, and while you dont win, you get pretty close

-he looks shocked and excited, with a dash of smugness

-"i knew you were the one. second smartest man in gotham- right after me, of course"

-he explains to you that hes not going to kill you, just keep you ("i cant let that mind of yours make direct contact with the idiocy of gotham! your IQ will lower just by being around them!") and that he'll keep that mind of yours sharp

-how does he do this? puzzles. lots and lots of puzzles. hes a bit of a sadist, so the puzzles are mandatory if you want things like food. regardless of how you do, he'll keep you alive, but if you want anything more than the necessities, you better get good with puzzles

-he spends lots of time with you. he says its because youre the only interesting person in gotham, but its mostly because hes an incredibly lonely man. its hard being at the top, so he'll cling to anyone who can even get close to what he sees as his level

-he LOVES learning more about you. not that he didnt research you for months, but he could only gather so much information before kidnapping you. every conversation is like an interrogation

-in terms of affection, hes... interesting. if you earn your dinner, hes programming robots to serve as waiters and dusting off his green suit. i wouldnt call him a romantic, per se, but he certainly thinks of himself as such

-dont expect much in terms of physical affection, he takes a while to get to that point. hes the riddler, after all! hes above the need to cuddle! unless... if you need comfort, he supposes he can indulge you

-if you ever try to escape, he'll be furious. how dare you try and leave! how dare you assume hes dumb enough to not have planned for this! until you apologize, youre getting the bare necessities and no attention

-when you inevitably start to reciprocate, hes smug about it, but secretly ecstatic. he knows hes not the most charming guy around, but he managed to win over the second smartest guy in gotham. and isnt that all he really needs for companionship?

Create Openbook Market ID - Raydium Market ID 0.23 SOL

What is an Openbook Market ID?

Raydium.io, one of the most popular DeFi platforms on the Solana network, requires you to create an "Openbook Market ID" to list and trade your token project on the platform. OpenBook is a decentralized and open-source tool of the Serum V3 program on Solana. Creating an Openbook Market ID is mandatory to list on DeFi platforms such as Raydium.io.

0.23 Creating a Market ID in exchange for SOL

The cost of creating a Market ID on Raydium.io is usually around "3 SOL". However, through Openbookgui.com, one of the platforms that supports Openbookv2, you can create a 100% compatible market ID for only 0.23 SOL. With this method, you can create a market ID that is fully compatible with Serum V3 liquidity. You can access the Openbookgui.com website via the following link https://www.openbookgui.com/

Note: On platforms like Dexlab, it is strongly discouraged to try to reduce the fee by changing the "Length" values. This is the wrong approach and can lead to errors in Serum V3 liquidity. As a result of these errors, users may encounter frequent errors in trading, which will seriously damage your project's reputation. I have made the video below for you to better understand all the steps and to see how easy the process is.

Steps to Create Openbook Market ID

First, go to https://www.openbookgui.com/ and connect your Phantom wallet (Openbook v2 is only supported by Phantom and requires a non-mobile device).

Base Mint: In this field you need to enter your token contract address.

Quote Mint: You do not need to change this field, but you can use USDC or USDT if you wish.

USDC Address: EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v

USDT Address: Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB

Min. Order Size: This is set to "1" by default, but you can customize it if you want by referring to the table below.

Price Tick: This is set to "4" by default, but you can customize it.

You can use the examples below to customize your Tickers settings.

Review all your settings and make sure you have enough (0.23 SOL) in your account, then click the "Create" button to complete the process. Market ID creation takes approximately 15 seconds.

In my next article with more information about Raydium.io liquidity, I will try to explain the topic with simpler explanations and examples. Goodbye for now and good luck!

Congrats!! if u dont mind, how was it setting up for the surgery ? (Like scheduling it and exams before it)

ok I was actually very very lucky considering where I live and the usual experiences. it's different in every area! some people cant schedule the surgery until they've had a mandatory month long Thinking it Over period, some cant get it done without specific exams having been done first, etc

first of all after years of looking through this list I finally saw a single doctor listed for my city ! Doctor sterilized someone younger than me and childless, so I broke the news to my dad and made an appointment. This guy is always busy helping deliver every single baby born here so I had to wait a month to see him. (called June 3rd, scheduled for July 11th)

I have never been to a gyn before this. Only once, in highschool, across the border for a one time issue. Some people say to schedule a routine exam then bring the surgery up but I scheduled specifically for "surgery consult" -> "permanent birth control." bc im avoiding the necessary exams like the plague.

On the day of the consult i was sick with worry about the hoops id have to jump or what if he only sterilized that other person bc they had a specific medical issue so No I Can't Get It, but I saw him for less than 10 minutes total, he asked me like 2 questions about being sure, and that was it. I told him I had events at the end of Aug and Sept so he said we could do some time in first 2 weeks of august if I was ready. No gyn exams, nothing 😭 and BECAUSE he's so busy I'd likely be his first surgery of the day bc it takes him so little time (I was and it did!)

I had to make a call to the hospital to see if my insurance would cover the hospital services, while the surgery scheduler called to see if it would cover the doctor's services. On July 22 I was called to schedule my surgery, soonest available was today, August 7th! Was told pre op appointment was the 6th (yesterday) and I was sure that's where he would Get Me. like ok cheye lets do all those humiliating exams now. U can't get the surgery unless you do. but it also lasted 5 mins, he just game me the paperwork needed to register at the hospital, and let me ask him all 20 of my questions. nothing else.

Even at the hospital all I had to do the day before was Pee in Cup and Get Bloodwork Done.

finally a win for cheye... insanely grateful for this to have gone so well and so easily in my city. and grateful to keep evading things necessary for my health LMAO

I HAD QUESTIONS LIKE YOU DID THOUGH! so even though my experience probably isnt helpful, you can find the experiences of many other ppls scheduling, consults, insurance calls, and exams in this subreddit! They have lots of informational flairs/categories and ppl even make posts on things you can ask the doctor to bill the surgery as so that insurance has a better chance of covering all of it! I was OVERprepared for my consult from the info I got from here!!! I read every single experience throughout this entire time for mental prep!!!

You grinned at the camera and greeted them, “Hey guys! Due to popular demand, I’m gonna be playing Freya’s Gate 5 for this stream.”

Before turning to play the game already, you noticed some text pop up in the corner of your screen.

“User130 donated 100 credits and left a note: Congrats on getting invited to the FYC Gala! I hope you have a fun time :)”

A grin pulled at your lips. “Thank you so much for the support, User130! And I hope you’re having a great day!”

This specific account has been a long supporter of your career as a streamer. They’ve been regularly sending donations biweekly. Even though they weren’t big amounts, you appreciated how long they’ve supported you even when you were just starting out.

“Alright, let’s get to playing! I���m planning to finish the main storyline here, maybe play some multiplayer with a few friends, and grind some exp to make sure I don’t like, get my ass beaten by the final boss,” you narrated what you were planning for that session, “I should probably level up some equipment too so battles won’t be as hard.”

You continued playing, going through the plot and reacting to it with your viewers. A few laughs here, a comment there, then the occasional “pause the game and then discuss your theory with your viewers” moment.

Taking up streaming was a good idea now that you thought of it. Playing games alone just didn’t feel as fun without someone to enjoy it with you.

Oh.

Another player was requesting to play with you.

You checked the ID.

“GGSWolf”

Your eyes lit up, recognising one of your friends. You clicked “Accept” immediately.

Her avatar popped up next to yours after a moment of loading. Yeah, your lag hasn’t been too good lately but hopefully once you finished setting up your new PC, it’ll be running as smoothly as a hot knife sliding down soft butter.

“Hey,” GGSWolf spoke into voicechat when she entered your world. Although you weren’t entirely sure who she was, you could tell she sounded quite young. Was she a highschooler, maybe?

“Hey, Wolfie!” You greeted, grinning.

“You need carrying? I saw you’re almost about to fight the boss.” Her voice seemed quite nonchalant, like this was about as easy as breathing for her. Sometimes you were envious of her skill when it came to games.

“Yeah! I just need to farm some mats to ascend my Grande so that I can cheese the final boss with the Airstrike Technique.”

“Good idea.”

The two of you entered the dungeon that had the best drop rate for the harp fragments that you needed. It started out great but…

“STILL NO DROPS?!” You exclaimed in frustration, looking at the loot you got for finishing the dungeon quest.

You could hear a soft pop from Wolfie’s mic. Seemed like she was chewing on bubblegum this whole time. “Wow, did all your luck run out after you got that invitation to the Gala?” She commented.

Groaning, you rested your head on your desk. “Maybe…”

“Yeah, my coworkers got invited too. One of them didn’t want to go but our boss said it was mandatory so he ended up accepting the invite too.”

You raised your head, confused. “Wait I thought you were a highschooler.”

“I’m older than that, dummy.”

You checked the chat and saw that they were just laughing at your sudden terrible luck.

“Hey you guys are such MEANIES!” You gasped in mock hurt. But then you turned back to your game, “So do you think I’ll be meeting your coworkers there?”

She hummed. “Well, the first one’s got a pretty distinct personality but the dude is about as social as a rock. You might come across him once or twice. The other one is more chill but she’s got a bit of a sadistic streak.”

“Ohh I see.” Considering the rules of the masquerade, you couldn’t actually find the identities of the other participants. You supposed that the event organiser wanted the event to stay true to the theme of Cinderella.

"Well, since clearly your luck is terrible right now, I can trade you some harp fragments,” Wolfie said. “I need some sword fragments. Prefarming for the new paladin.”

“Oh my god, you’re a lifesaver, Wolfie!” You exclaimed joyously, immediately right-clicking on her avatar and pressing the trade button on the dropdown menu.

She accepted the request and the two of you traded your materials.

Since you still needed more harp fragments, the two of you ended up grinding the dungeon for a couple more runs until you could ascend your Grande.

Bright colors flashed repeatedly on a screen, spelling out the word “JACKPOT”

The casino was lively as ever. The food was delicious, the fine decor provided a luxurious ambiance, and most importantly, adrenaline and pleasure rushed through the air as people lost themselves to the depravity of gambling.

The person grinned, looking at the screen. “Hehe, my luck is wonderful as usual. Praise Aha that I have such luck.”

A woman dressed in office clothing approached her with a device. “Sugo, we received a new report from the folks in the lab.”

They turned to her. “Oh?”

“It’s about the anomaly.”

“Ah, yes, yes, why don’t we discuss this somewhere private?” They collected their earnings from the slot machine and placed all of it in their pocket. One would wonder how they managed to fit such a huge pile into a tiny pocket but perhaps that was just one of the many mysteries of the entity.

The event organiser led her to a private lounge reserved for VIPs. They sat down at opposite sides of each other.

“So what exactly did you want to say?” Sugo asked, taking their mask off. Their eyes flashed with intrigue.

The woman nodded. “Yes, we run a few simulations between the anomaly and other participants one by one. Out of all of them, we found what could be their best match.”

Sugo grinned, quite pleased with this news. “Oh, how wonderful. I can’t wait to see if they’ll naturally gravitate to their best match or end up getting the wrong person, hehe.” They hummed. “But unfortunately we’ll have to cut this scene short.”

“Huh…?” The woman was confused.

“They’re watching us after all. I can’t give out spoilers so soon!”

After that was all done, Wolfie excused herself and left, saying she had to play another game due to maintenance being over. Apparently there was a new update and she really wanted the new banner character.

You decided to end the stream there, telling your viewers you’ll just beat the final boss on the next stream since farming materials for Grande took so long with your terrible luck. A pity.

After turning your setup off, you suddenly realised you forgot to do your groceries for the week. “Aw crap,” you spoke to yourself, going to check your pantry for what you needed.

You typed down your grocery list real quick and dressed up in casual clothes, taking your wallet and placing it in your pocket.

The afternoon sun shone down on you as you walked towards the grocery store. It was quite a stroke of luck that it wasn’t too far from your home. Going to buy stuff you needed didn’t take too long; Though, thinking about it now, perhaps the convenience of having a store so close by meant that you wouldn’t have to think about buy groceries much and that’s why you often forgot to do them.

Ah, well, it wasn’t too big of a deal.

You walked into the store, feeling the air-conditioned air hit your face. How pleasant.

Taking a cart, you made your way to the aisles where you could get the stuff you needed. However, on the way there, you spotted a familiar person.

They turned around and immediately noticed you, eyes lighting up. “Hey, funny running into you here, huh?” Your friend commented, chuckling. “You’ve been pretty busy with your streams, haven’t you? How’ve you been?”

You smiled in return. “I’m doing great! I actually got an invite to this super cool event called the Find Your Cinderella Gala,” you told them.

“Oh right! I actually saw the news on Trotter. Turns out there’s a whole bunch of celebs joining the event. You’re super lucky!” They responded. “I hope you have fun. Make sure to send me some updates and gossip after, yeah?”

“Heh, sure,” you chuckled.

Your friend nodded, satisfied with your answer. “Though, speaking of celebs, I recently got these tickets to a concert. You wanna go with? A bunch of friends are really excited since they like this band a lot.”

You considered it for a moment. It’s been a while since you were able to go to a concert. Maybe it’ll be good for you since you’ve sorta been cooped up in your house, making content for your fans.

hey homonoromo! a czech related question: how is it with queer acceptance in your country? preferrably in brno, haha. and especially about trans people? do you think it'd be possible for me to transition there? and how much would it cost in general? and do i have to get psych approval and wait in the queue for years or stuff like in the uk?

i know you're not a consultant or anything, i just don't know who to ask. also, i guess that's way more than one question

Aight so when it comes to acceptance it really comes to individual people but regarding transition there's a couple things to consider:

- according to law you are required (among other things) to get sterilized to complete your transition if you're transitioning fully from one binary gender to another (aka you want your personal documents say you're that gender and you want a name that's purely given to people of that gender), also there's no nonbinary option for the "full" transition, you either have M or F on your ID

- before you're allowed to start taking HRT you need to go to a therapist essentially, it really depends on WHERE exactly and WHO your therapist is and I don't know the Brno situation but there are forums (mostly on Facebook I think) where people discuss their experiences (also čumblr Brňáci might know more than me)

- this is also individual when it comes to how long you'll be waiting, how long they'll be examining you and how long it will take you to transition

- I'm not sure how MONEY works when you have a non-czech insurance company (since I have no idea how insurance works) but if you do have one that operates in the Czech republic they WILL pay for your transition as if it were any other medical treatment (there's of course examinations and shit that determine whether it will psychologically benefit you to receive that treatment), you should still check if your insurance covers these kinds of things tho

- during your examination period you're first required to "try out" presenting yourself socially as the gender you're transitioning to which includes using a gender neutral name

- a recent GOOD development here is that you can now change your name to a neutral one ANYTIME even if you're not "officially" transitioning! Here's a list of legally approved gender neutral names!

- there are invasive and unnecessary examinations that should not be mandatory for the transition but your therapist can still try to make you go through them, depends again on the specific one, it's also important to remember that the way trans people are diagnosed here is reportedly ancient and just...really stupid? (to quote what my classmate told me, they asked him things like "did you play with dolls or cars as a child?")

- if you are married (to someone of the opposite sex) or in a registered partnership (with someone of the same sex) pre-transition, you have to get divorced when you complete transition because they're not the same on a legal level

Trans*parent is a great Czech resource when it comes to transition and trans stuff in general

I am not sure how different it is with foreigners or even if you'd find a therapist who speaks english honestly. Don't quote me on this but you might need to get Czech citizenship first? But I really don't know.

If I said something stupid or inaccurate (or no longer relevant) here pls correct me!!

[choctalksalot]

gotta ask bout jakehal just gotta ahdjjf

oooh oh you've stepped on the Words Button right there

boutta infodump the shit outta this one buckle up mothers and fuckers

love jakehal. top 10 ships that would obliterate dirk strider. concept of them makes me want to stick my head in a microwave. in a good way!! in canon, it's an Oh Man This Will Not End Well to me; jake spends a lot of the plot seeing hal as an annoyance, something dirk uses to blow people off, then as an emotional crutch, and like man that post you made about them? im not sure if i reblogged it yet but i screamed. because yeah. id go fucking apeshit too if i got treated like that. even if hal loves jake, it's kinda fucking hard to just forgive and forget 3 years of belittlement y'know. i think the worst part is he just might.

also a cup and a half of crack is mandatory. i cannot explain why. you cannot take them completely seriously. ever. it's part of what makes them work

if jake for some reason ever pursued hal, a lot of the time it hits me as being a bad attempt at coping. or a rebound situation, which is even worse because haha used like a tool. hah. they need Specific Circumstances to make them end in anything but a pile of burning scrap, the kind that forces them to confront their treatment of each other, and that's 1) hard 2) the first of many, many steps, for both of them. it's not a pretty sight. but it's one i love to see, in either direction [:

and then, turnabout jakehal. now that changes the fucking game.

i needed to make a bingo specifically for them because hoooh man turnabout jakehal. ho man. y'know there just something about being stuck on a ship for 3 years with the autoresponder of your best friend who you've recently been forced to acknowledge is a person that originated from said best friend, one that you may have been treating pretty shittily. and you can't run away from that. im aware im mostly focusing on jake's pov here but that's because i genuinely sobbed the last time i tried to think too hard about hal and im trying to stay coherent here

i keep a very specific scene of them in my head: sitting on top of the ship, looking at the infinite timelines whizzing by, and just. talking. about this. about hal being dirk's autoresponder. about whether jake just sees him as a shittier, less real version of dirk. about what hal's deal with jake is in the first place. i think about them. awkward kids working it out. they drive me nuts. i love this au, i love them :DD

Anonymous asked:

"It would be really interesting to be the therapist and see the before and after Gyutaro meets Y/n, lol.

Hantengu probably had quite the wild ride with Gyu during these months.

Oh and the week when he rejected Y/n for her own good! That must have been a really awkward session where Gyutaro just sat in silence with his arms crossed and was very defensive with whatever question hantengu was trying to ask him."

Therapy sessions are mandatory for Gyutaro since he is one of the few students that have a red ID. The university assigned him a therapist that he has to visit twice a month to make sure that he's doing ok, and is fit to take classes in an environment around humans.

Hantengu is used to dealing with difficult students, but nothing could have prepared him for Gyutaro.

Before Gyutaro met you, he was mostly silent in his therapy sessions. It was difficult for Hantengu to get anything out of him. The only thing he'd open up about was his sister, and even then he'd just talk about how great she is.

But after he met you, oh boy, that's when Gyutaro started really talking. When he first met you he'd go on and on about the annoying human girl in his class.

"She's so fucking annoyin... her and her stupid glitter pens," Gyutaro growls, "I don't know why she insists on talking to me."

"Well you seem to be quite fixated on her," Hantengu jots some notes down, "Are you sure you actually hate her as much as you say? She sounds like a nice girl."

"Yes, I'm sure I hate her! I just want her to leave me alone..."

"But isn't this what you wanted? Don't you want humans to treat you normally? This girl seems to be doing just that."

"I-" Gyutaro chokes on his words as a blush appears on his cheeks, "Ngh, I guess... b-but she's still annoying though."

After time passed, you became the only thing that Gyutaro would talk about during his sessions. Hantengu was glad to see that Gyutaro was making progress, he would make sure to report this to the university. That Gyutaro was showing signs of being able to facilitate healthy relationships with humans.

That is until the week that you had your first date, and Gyutaro had coldly rejected you. It seemed like all of the progress that Gyutaro had made had just disappeared overnight. And no matter how many questions Hantengu asked, Gyutaro refused to tell him what happened.

And when Gyutaro returned two weeks later for his next session, he had made a complete 180. The happiest that Hantengu has ever seen him. He was finally willing to open up to him about everything that happened.

Hantengu was shocked by the fact that Gyutaro told you about his troubled past. Even going as far to tell you things that even his sister has never known.

And believe it or not, Hantengu was not supportive of Gyutaro being in a romantic relationship with you. He knows more than anyone how volatile and dangerous Gyutaro can be, especially towards humans. Hantengu felt that you were good for Gyutaro, but taking the relationship to a romantic level would be too far. He feared for your life and even contemplated contacting the university about the matter. But ultimately decided against it.

Gyutaro had made lots of progress so Hantengu was going to give him the benefit of the doubt. And it ended up working out.

Now every time Gyutaro visits Hantengu, he has lots of fun stories to tell about his adventures with you. He even asks Hantengu for relationship advice sometimes.

"This weekend I asked Y/N to come over but she said she was at the mall so I went there too," Gyutaro lazily says while absentmindedly scratching his neck.

"You went to surprise her?" Hantengu questions, twirling his pen between his fingers.

"No, to watch her."

"Gyutaro... you can't do that."

"Why? I wanted to see her and she was busy so I didn't wanna disturb her..."

"You can't just stalk her! That's how you scare girls off. You need to give her her privacy."

"But she's my girlfriend? Why would she need privacy? I don't understand..."

"Listen Gyutaro. Time apart is healthy for couples. You don't need to be together at every moment."

"I beg to differ," Gyutaro crosses his arms defensively. Confident in his stance on this.

DTFA Lore Bit: Kisaragi Foundation + Divisions

Another Organization that is similar to Future Foundation but it’s target is different, while smaller the Future Foundation but a force to be reckoned with; the Kisaragi Foundation is working on restoring from the tragedy but make it so they aren’t relying on Hope’s Peak Academy and seem to have a rather rocky relationship with Future Foundation due to them wanting to re-open it, especially given Class 78-A’s killing game reveal the infamous Genocide Jack a famous serial killer that killed a total of 37 men.

Due to this both Foundations won’t be working together unless they really need to and tend to handle their own; Future Foundation goes to handle Ultimate Despair while the Kisaragi Foundation handles the Children of Utsuro/Void and Mikado Sannoji which was discovered after the Ryutaro Maki incident.

However, unlike Future Foundation which has issues of recruiting people and only selecting Ultimates; the Kisaragi Foundation hires family members of Class 79 and won’t care if you enroll into Hope’s Peak or not but it’s rule under an iron fist by the name of Tsurugi Kinjo, the former Ulimate Police Officer of Class 79 but also to make sure he doesn’t go overboard he also has Rei Mekaru, the former Ultimate Professor and Teruya Otori, the former Ultimate Merchant.

Now of course, how is the Division run and what is their goal aside from catching Void, let’s see what else they want to do.

General:

The Kisaragi Foundation has a certain set of uniforms for each Division; Tsurugi’s Division has military wear which has the Kisaragi Foundation symbol on it. Rei and Teruya’s Division is suits, dress shirts and often the members have to wear an ID card on it - proving they are members of the Kisaragi Foundation.

Speaking of the ID cards, those badges and cards have a tracking device in them and are to help keep track of its members if they get kidnapped for a killing game.

Like the other 2 Foundations; the Kisaragi Foundation also has a memory back-up device for that same reason as well if any of its members were kidnapped.

While they have a med bay and everything, they sadly don’t have a Division that helps with mental health given the doctor isn’t a psychologist and if you do get them; remember that it’s on your personal time.

Due to the nature of the tragedy; time off is very rare and you’ll need to speak with Tsurugi Kinjo about it but don’t expect him to accept it and just tell you to get back to work.

Working at the Kisaragi Foundation ranges from 7 AM to 10 PM, Teruya Otori’s Division handles payment.

There are living arrangements at the Kisaragi Foundation; where you can live by yourself or live with someone but it’s recommend that you don’t cause any noise complaints if your living with another person otherwise you’ll get 3 warnings if you live with another person and if you get a 3rd strike, you’ll be kick out and live separate.

In terms of reporting Void activity or anything that happen; all members no matter the Division they are in must report to Tsurugi Kinjo, while they can report to Rei Mekaru and Teruya Otori - Tsurugi must be inform of any activity or you’ll be punish.

While they don’t like working with Future Foundation, they will get their shipments from them and visa versa.

Check-ups are mandatory and must be done after a mission is complete.

Tsurugi Kinjo’s Division - Police/Law Enforcement:

Tsurugi’s Division is the police and law enforcement which due to seeing how Juu Kinjo had become an Ultimate Despair, Tsurugi has made it his goal to restore Japan’s law and police instead of having it rely on Hope’s Peak Academy as he believe that the reason Junko was able to get away with her crimes was due to the police be stunted by Hope’s Peak Academy.

In fact, he does remember that Hideyoshi Tamon, Head of the 9th Division at Future Foundation and a fellow police officer had informed him that he learned something but due to his death by his father - he never knew why.

Nowadays, Tsurugi runs his Division like a military, where all members are to be trained and armed to fight; learning various ways of combat which range from fire arm to hand to hand combat which is under the watch of Naoto Kobashikawa and Mai Hatano.

Tsurugi’s Division handles most of the grunt work and will often rely on Rei’s Division to gather said info and be prepare to follow the lead, however as of recent this year it seems that Tsurugi’s health has started to decline; he started to look more sickly, he can’t walk properly without a wheelchair but can stand up just fine and has to get more check-ups with Dr. Ando.

No one knows why this is happening but maybe he’s suffering from unfortunate luck…

Other Members: Ryutaro Maki - Kiyoka Maki’s younger brother

+ Other members

Rei Mekaru’s Division - Information Gather/Education:

Rei’s Division is about finding and collecting information, ranging from finding information on Void, Utsuro or even Akane Taira - Rei’s Division is to help gather information and investigate, Rei getting her memories of Hope’s Peak Academy always remember not liking how Hope’s Peak Academy was run and wanted to restructure and fix the education and schooling system, especially as she started to realize that that most schools had gotten destroyed during the tragedy.

Now that the tragedy has started to settle down; Rei along with fellow member of Future Foundation and head of the 10th Division, Mio Yonaga have begun discussions on how to fix the education system which they believe that likely by April 1st, 2018 or the year after that, school will finally be re-open.

In regards to finding information on Utsuro, she was able to find a lot of information on the members of Void, Mikado and even Akane Taira’s past was uncover but as of late, she is starting to find information on Utsuro’s past and her only lead is a nurse that work at the hospital that Utsuro was born at; Harumi Nanami which she hopefully is able to find Utsuro’s upbringing and she’s quite close to uncovering it but seems interested Kairi Sugimoto due to her rather odd behavior as of recent…

Second in Command: Midori Yamaguichi - Kakeru Yamaguichi’s little sister

Other Members: Rika Takahashi - one of Kiyoka Maki’s best friends

Fukumi Iranami - Satsuki Iranami’s 7th older sister

Jiro Nijiue - Iroha Nijiue’s older brother

Setsuka Chiebukuro - Private Investigator hired by the Kisaragi Foundation

+ Other members

Teruya Otori’s Division - Economy/Business:

Teruya’s Division is helping with the economy, banking, accounting and business side of things which he’s the one that interacts with Future Foundation the most, especially one Biju Hakoda, a member of Future Foundation and head of the 15th Division that handles economy as well.

He helps with shutting down various businesses that are connected to Ultimate Despair, one of those being the Otori Mart which is owned by Kojiro Otori, his father. He had struggles with accepting that his father could side with Despair but knew he had to do the right thing.

Teruya does often play mediator when Tsurugi and Rei are fighting which he does try to have them work together but even he’s starting to struggle with his own mental health and has started to see a therapist, Yoruko Kabuya and hopefully he can start to work through these issues now that the tragedy has started to settle…

hello!!

is it (legally) required to have some sort of permission to upload or publish remixes of hazbin hotel songs?

Short answer yes, long answer it depends what you mean by publish, and I love that I get in the weeds with music business stuff.

So - the recordings themselves and all pieces of them, like the instrumental stems and vocals, are all part of the A24-owned “master recordings” which you cannot use or sample or remix without a license from them. Technically you could make an un-monetized video or tiktok or something and probably won’t get in trouble for it, but they’ll have the rights to monetize it or take it down. Spotify/distrokid/any form of real distribution you for sure cannot do without a license.

That’s remixes - but covers are interesting. You can actually formally distribute song covers thanks to something called a “mandatory mechanical license” whereby if your distributor gives you the option (I know distrokid does) you can mark that the song is a cover, and it’ll fetch a cover license (which are generally automatically approved) from (usually) the Harry Fox Agency in the US. Now this does NOT give you permission to remix, interpolate, change, or put the song to video - THAT requires a license from the master recording owner (as described above) as well as the copyright owner (song copyright ownership is also known as ‘publishing’). This is how Taylor Swift was able to re-record her “Taylor’s Versions” of songs - she didn’t have control over her master recordings, but because she owned the copyright to those songs, she was able to make new master recordings from scratch.

Ultimately fanmade remixes often do not get taken down or get copyright strikes unless the remix in question is being monetized and distributed to platforms, because generally it is in content owners’ interest to allow social media users to make “UGC” (user generated content) as ultimately it’s more attention to that piece of music, but it IS up to the content owner’s discretion to decide to take action against it or not - and sometimes systems like YouTube’s Content ID will flag and fingerprint that content automatically without the content owner needed to see or ID the thing you made.

And unfortunately I cannot personally help anyone get cover or remix licenses to the Hazbin songs, that’s all A24 Music - I’ve been getting a lot of emails to that effect and I’m sorry I can’t be more helpful there.

Hope this was informative!

3 Years Later...

TW: Explosion, bruises, mentions of killing, violence in general

Dante and Karma belong to ZeddyZi

SUMMER

A quiet groan was heard as a knock from the front door sounded throughout the apartment and Dante got up from his bed, As Dante stumbles out of bed, another knock is heard “I'm coming!” He shouted

He reaches and opens the door to woman with a few bruises, who walks in “How was your morning?” She asked walking over to a table then fills a cup with liquor while Dante closes the door “Want one?” She added

“No, I don't… want one” Dante grumbled, The lady shrugged “Well, I have some interesting news for you-” She was cut off “Where were you, Karma?” Dante asked causing the lady, Karma, to glare at him

“West End district” She told him before she took a sip of her liquor “Hey, we had a drop to make…” She muttered “We. We had a drop to make” Dante corrected grabbing a towel from the table and handing it to her

“Yeah, well, you wanted to be left alone, remember?” Karma scoffed grabbing the towel and pressing it over her bruised cheek with a slight wince “So I'll take a guess. The, uh, whole deal went south and the client made off with our pills. Is that about right?” Dante groaned

Karma laughed “Deal went off without a hitch!” She exclaimed pulling out some cards from her back pocket “Enough ration cards to last us a couple of months- easy” She smirked but Dante was unimpressed

“You wanna explain this?” He sighed gesutering to Karma’s bruised face “I was on my way back here, and I got jumped by these two assholes, all right?” She explained continnuing to press the towel to her face

“And yeah, they got a good few hits in, but… Look, I managed” She added as Dante rubbed his eyes tiredly “Gimme that…” He mumbled taking a step closer to her then taking the towl and helping her with the bruises “Are these assholes still with us?” He asked

“Now that's funny…” Karma snickered which Dante took as ‘No’ “Did you at least find out who they were?” He replied “Yeah, look, they were a couple of nobodies-” She paused pushing his hand away from her face

“They don't matter. What matters is that Lenore fucking sent them”

Dante was taken aback “Our Lenore?” He confirmed and Karma nodded “She knows that we're after her” She told him “She figures She's gonna get us first?” Karma suggested as Dante paced around slightly

“That son of a bitch, She's smart” Dante grumbled slamming the towl onto the table “No, She's not smart enough. I know where she's hiding” Karma smirked “Like hell you do” Dante scoffed causing Karma to roll her eyes

“Old warehouse in Area 5” She said with a shrug “Can't say for how long, though” She sighed “Well, I'm ready now. Yeah?” Dante replied “Oh, I can do now” Karma grinned cracking her knuckles

Dante stared at her “No killing unless nesscary” He told her and she groaned before the two of them exited the apartment and left the building then walked into an alleyway “The checkpoint's still open” Karma said

“Only got a few hours left until curfew…” Dante muttered fidgeting with his bracelet “We better hurry up then” The two began walking down the alley passing two scraps next to a dumpster

“Wait, are you serious?” “I got served the damn papers this morning. I've been selected for outside work duty” “It's such crap. The soldiers are supposed to handle the outside” “I'll make sure to tell them that”

Karma unlocks a metal gate and waits on the other side for Dante as he walks past her onto the streets, where a military Humvee drives by and guards decorate the street along with several scraps and others

“Attention. Citizens are required to carry a current ID at all times. Compliance with all city personnel is mandatory.” The PA system announced on a loop

“Look at that. Ration line hasn't opened yet. Must be running low again” Karma sighed as Across from them, a group of people are in line waiting to receive their rations at a distribution center

Dante and Karma continue down the street. To the left of them, several guards have blocked off a condemned building with barricades but the two try to ignore it as guards in HAZMAT suits bring out a few scraps

“Seems like more people are gettin' infected…” Karma said “That just means more people are sneakin' out” Dante shrugged while the two reached the checkpoint gate “I got us all new papers so They shouldn't give us any static up there. Just play it cool” Karma told him

The two of them approach the checkpoint, where a military truck is waiting in the other lane, Karma hands Dante his ID as they approch the first guard and the two hand the guard their IDs “What's your business here?” The guard asked

“Got the day off. Visiting a friend” Dante lied but the guard nodded and handed the IDs back to them “All right, move on through” The guard said but just As the guard steps to the side to let Dante and Karma through, the truck in front of them suddenly explodes

Everyone cowers as the pair get slightly disoriented from the explosion “Oh shit!” Karma exclaimed before two guards start to close the checkpoint gate as gunfire erupts in the background

“Get outta here. Go!” “Close it up!” “Fireflies!” “Fuckin' shoot 'em!” “They're running!” “Call for backup!”

Karma looks around panicked then yanks Dante’s arm “Dante, come on, let's get outta here!” She shouted turning around and running toward the direction they came from

“Attention. Checkpoint 5 is now closed until further notice. All civilians must clear the surrounding area immediately.” The PA system annouced

After Dante turns around, he starts following Karma down the street “Dante, let's go. C'mon!” Karma called out running to the entrance of one of the nearby buildings “Looks like the coast is clear. C'mon!” She added

Karma opens the front door to the building. She walks inside as Dante follows her and closes the door behind them. Karma sighs and faces Dante “Fuck… so much for the easy route. Patch yourself up, all right?” She muttered

Karma hands Dante some bandages, Karma walks ahead of him as he bandages himself. Once he's successfully healed himself, he stands up and starts following Karma through the hallway of the building

“They're gonna close all the checkpoints. We're gonna have to go around the outside” Karma frowned “Outside the wall?” Dante asked “Or we could just let Lenore go” Karma suggested sarcastically

“Cute” Dante scoffed before A man sitting in a lawn chair in the hallway notices Karma. He stands up and starts a conversation with her while he walks alongside her and Dante follows behind them

“Hey, Karma. You see that shit?” He asked “I was there-” Karma paused “Hey, how's the east tunnel looking?” She asked in response “It's clear. I just used it. No patrols. Where you off to?” He replied

“Gonna pay Lenore a visit” Karma snickered “You too?” He chuckled causing Karma to tilt her head in confusion “Who else is looking for her?” She narrowed her eyes “Uh, Vinnie. She's been asking around, trying to find her” He told her

“Vinnie? What do the Fireflies need with Lenore?” Karma questioned “You think she'd tell me?” He shrugged “Well, what did you tell her?” Karma aksed “The truth. I got no idea where Len’s hiding” He said

“Good man. Hey, you stay out of trouble, all right? Military's gonna be out in force soon” Karma chuckled “Yeah, see you around” He waved before he stopped and leaned against the wall while Karma and Dante continue further down the hallway

“Vinnie lookin' for Lenore? What do you make of that?” Karma said “I don't like it. We better find her before the Fireflies do” Dante grumbled as The two reach the end of the hallway and enter a room to the left. Inside is another man sitting on the couch

“Hey, guys. How's it going?” The man asked “Shit's stirring up out there. How we lookin' over here?” Karma replied “Ah, it's been quiet. No signs of military or infected” The man told her, Karma approaches the entertainment center to the left and gets ready to push it

“Dante, give me a hand with this” She said while Dante walks over and helps Karma push the furniture out of the way. As they do so, it reveals a large hole in the wall behind it “Y'all take it easy out there” the man called out

Karma drops down the hole in the wall and Dante goes down after her into a dark, basement area…
