“I have a surprise for you,” Tommy says at dinner. Joel pauses, fork scraping against his plate.

“That can’t be good,” he sighs. “What now?”

“Why do you assume it’s somethin’ bad?”

“Last time you said you had a surprise for me, I had chickens in my backyard.”

Tommy laughs. “It’s nothin’ like that this time.”

“Well, then, spit it out,” Joel demands.

Tommy reaches into his back pocket and pulls out a folded piece of paper that he opens on the table, smoothing out the creases before sliding it over to Joel.

“Reservation confirmation?” Joel reads. He recognizes the name of the restaurant, the kind of place where the waiters dress in all black and the menu doesn’t have prices listed beside the items. 

“Yep. I got you your first Valentine’s Day date,” Tommy replies proudly. Joel glares at him.

“What do you mean?”

You’re half a bottle of wine deep when you stumble across the Craigslist ad. When you click on the picture, your interest is further piqued by the handsome man that appears on the screen. He’s standing in front of a black pick up truck dressed in jeans and a t-shirt that stretches across his tan muscles. His brown hair is cut short, just enough length for you to notice that it’s beginning to curl across his forehead and by his neck. His beard frames a bright smile that crinkles the corners of his dark eyes.

Whoever he is, he’s hot. He’d be the perfect way to get over being dumped two weeks ago by your boyfriend of two years.

Your logic was lost somewhere between your second and third glasses of wine, which is why you click on the e-mail address in the ad and start typing. The reply is normal, at first, facts about yourself like your name and age and occupation, but you quickly end up derailing the message with an explanation about why this handsome guy should pick you, making sure to include that you’ve already got a reservation at a popular restaurant for the occasion. The picture you add is a recent photo from a cousin’s wedding that your aunt had e-mailed to you. 

Before you can think better of it, you click send. You take one last look at the man’s photo before shutting your laptop and stumbling off to bed to dream of brown eyes and tan skin.

Joel taps his fingers against the white tablecloth, eyes fixed on the door of the restaurant. This is stupid, he thinks. Why did he agree to this? Why did he let Tommy convince him this was a good idea? He should have just told him no and been done with it but somehow he’s here, sitting at a table for two in a fancy restaurant and feeling like a sore thumb in the only suit he owns. 

He’s lost enough in his thoughts that he doesn’t see you when you first come in, doesn’t realize you’re here until the hostess is walking up with you close behind in a beautiful dress and he suddenly remembers exactly why he agreed to Tommy’s idiot scheme. 

“Joel?” You ask. He stands, nearly knocking the table in his haste to greet you. You lean in for a brief hug and he catches the warm vanilla scent of you before you pull away and smile at him. 

He rounds the table to pull your chair out for you and makes sure you’re settled before returning to his seat. A waiter swoops by to offer the wine menu and explain the pre fixe menu for the evening while he pours two complimentary glasses of champagne into the crystal glasses beside your plates. An awkward silence settles when he leaves, Joel’s leg bouncing anxiously beneath the table as he tries to think of something to say.

“This is weird, right?” You finally say. “This feels weird.”

Joel breathes a sigh of relief. “That’s just what I was thinkin’.”

"Oh, thank god." You take a long sip of your champagne. "I can't believe I actually responded to a Craigslist ad for a date."

"I can't believe my stupid brother came up with this whole thing," Joel replies. "I could'a killed him."

Your eyes go wide. "Wait, your brother made the post? Why?!"

"He seems to think that at thirty-six, I should have had a date for Valentine's Day by now," Joel explains. "Why did you respond to the ad?"

"I had been drinking a lot of wine and having a lot of feelings and the internet was unfortunately not helping the situation."

Joel laughs, tension leaving his shoulders as he does. "We're an interestin' pair, huh?"

"Cheers to that," you reply, lifting your glass for him to tap his against with a gentle clink. 

As the dinner progresses, the conversation starts to flow with surprising ease. No topic goes untouched, from jobs to hobbies to a long list of favorites. When you’ve exhausted those topics, you move on to swapping stories about your friends and families. By the time he finishes paying a hefty check (and declining your offer to split the cost), Joel feels like he’s known you for a lifetime.

"I had a really nice time, Joel.”

"Me, too," he replies. Christ, you're pretty, bright eyed as you look at him with a soft smile. He reaches for your hand, pulling you closer until your chest brushes his and can wrap an arm around your waist. "This okay?"

"Mhm," you hum with a little nod. Joel's gaze drops to your mouth and he finds himself wondering what your pretty lips would feel like as he kissed you. Would he be able to taste that chocolate torte from dessert on your tongue?

“Joel?” You whisper. He didn’t even realize how close he’s gotten, a few scant inches separating you now. “Are you going to kiss me or not?”

He chuckles. “You want me to?”

“Please.”

Joel kisses you, warm lips moving in perfect harmony with yours. It’s chaste, until it’s not. It’s chaste, until his tongue sweeps against your bottom lip and dips inside to tangle with yours. It’s chaste, until his hands are pulling you closer with a tight grip on your hips and—

“Get a room!” 

You break apart, startled by the shout from someone passing by on the sidewalk. You can’t stop the laugh that breaks free, your shoulders shaking with the force of it.

“You wanna get out of here?” Joel asks. “I can walk you to your car.”

“I took a cab, actually.”

Joel smirks. “You want a ride, sweetheart?” 

Your face grows hot from the look in his eyes, the double meaning to his words not lost. He holds a hand out and you slip your palm against his, fingers folding together so that he can lead you to the parking lot down the street from the restaurant.

Joel opens the passenger door of the truck you recognize from the photo in the ad, helping you step up into the cab and going so far as to pull the seatbelt down, reaching across your body to fasten it. He looks up at as he pulls away, hand dragging across your stomach and making you shiver.

He shuts the door and gets in the driver’s seat, pulling out of the parking lot and following your directions toward your apartment. At the first red light, he settles his broad palm on your thigh, just above your knee, giving you a little squeeze. Feeling bold, you spread your legs the tiniest bit and Joel takes the invitation for what it is, sliding his hand higher. 

The light turns green and the sudden movement presses you to the back of the seat, jostles you enough that your legs fall open further. You move to close them, but Joel’s hand moves again, high enough now that if you moved the slightest bit, you could probably get some relief from the ache that’s been building since he kissed you.

His pinky stretches, barely grazing your pussy, but it makes you gasp nonetheless, squirming in your seat from the want. At the next red light, he abandons all pretense, slipping his hand beneath the elastic of your panties and dragging his fingers through the embarrassing amount of wetness that’s already gathered there for him.

“Fuck,” he groans. You turn your head to look at him, his sharp jaw clenched tight as he circles your clit with his index and middle finger. “This wet for me already, baby?”

You moan in response, unable to form words as he touches you, alternating between soft strokes and fast circles over your sensitive clit. Your hips chase his every movement, desperate for relief from the pressure building in your core. 

“Joel,” you whimper, grabbing his forearm, digging your nails into the muscle. Your eyes squeeze shut against the overwhelming sensations.

He turns the truck and hastily throws it in park, pulling his hand from you just as you were cresting that wave. You whine at the loss but he shushes you, undoing your seatbelt and getting out of the truck with a slam of the door. It takes you a second to realize he’s stopped because you’ve reached your apartment complex.

The passenger door opens and Joel is there, gripping the door tightly. “Let’s go.”

You lead him to your door on unsteady legs. He follows you inside your apartment, pressed close to your back while you set your bag on the table by the door. 

“Where’s your room?” He asks, hands already rucking up the fabric of your dress. “I gotta finish what I started.”

You hurry down the hall to your room together and you silently thank your past self for cleaning up before your date. Joel wastes no time reaching for the hem of your dress, tugging it up over your head and tossing it into a heap on the floor.

“Fuck, even prettier than I imagined,” he groans, dropping to his knees. “Soon as you walked in wearin’ that I knew I was a goner.” He eases your panties down your thighs, helps you step out of them without toppling over. “On the bed.”

You obey without hesitation, crawling across your familiar mattress and lying on your back, head on your pile of pillows. Joel removes his suit jacket, eyes dark as his gaze roams across your body and makes your skin prickle under the intensity. His shirt and pants follow in quick succession, leaving him in a pair of boxer briefs that highlight an impressive bulge.

Joel joins you on the bed and you’re hypnotized by the movement of muscle beneath tan skin. He urges your legs apart, calves draped over his broad shoulders to give him room to settle between your thighs. He looks up at you, holding your gaze as he takes his first taste of you with a deep groan you feel through your whole body. 

Your head drops back to your pillow with a shout, legs tensing around Joel’s head. You bury your hands in his hair, holding on tight while he devours you. His tongue circles your clit before dipping down to your dripping center to curl inside of you. A thick finger follows, pressing deep and withdrawing slowly.

“You taste so fuckin’ good,” Joel says. “How’s that feel, huh?”

“So good,” you moan. “More, please, Joel.”

“Since you asked so nicely.”

He eases another finger into you, curling them along your front wall with pointed focus. That knot of release tights again, your muscles growing tense with it the longer he moves with your body. He wraps his lips around your aching clit, alternating between sucking the sensitive bud into his mouth and working it with his tongue until you’re shouting a string of curses and shatter beneath him.

Joel works you through your orgasm until you’re gasping for breath, more puddle than human. He crawls up your body, leaving kisses on what seems like every inch of you as he does and you pull him close when he’s face to face with you, kissing him deeply and chasing the earthy taste of yourself from his mouth.

His hips press against yours, grinding his length against your inner thigh. The kiss turns sloppy, his breath coming in sharp pants and thrusts growing frantic, skin dappled with sweat in the warm air of your room. You tilt your hips, pushing a hand against his shoulder to get him flat on his back with you straddling his waist, stomach flexing beneath you.

He’s deliciously disheveled beneath you with messy hair and kiss swollen lips. His hands find your thighs, sliding upward over your stomach to find your breasts, pinching a nipple between his fingers and making you hiss. Your hips rock over the softness of his belly and you reach behind yourself to palm his cock.

“Look real good like this,” Joel pants, flexing into your touch. 

“Well, you did ask me if I wanted a ride,” you tell him. 

You lean over towards your nightstand, tugging the top drawer open and rummaging around for a condom. Foil packet in hand, you lift off of Joel for a moment to allow him the chance to hastily shove his underwear off before settling back down on top of his thighs and taking his length in your hand with a slow stroke that makes his mouth drop open, cock pulsing against your palm. You lean forward, licking the flushed tip clean of the pre-cum gathered there. 

“You’re killin’ me,” Joel says through gritted teeth. “Wanna feel you, quit teasin’.”

You decide to put you both out of your misery, ripping the condom wrapper and rolling the latex over him. You lift up and he holds his cock steady with a fist around the base as you position yourself over him on your knees and slowly take him into your tight heat, twin moans echoing in the room as you do.

When your hips are flush with his, the wiry curls at the base of his cock grow damp with your arousal as you rock above him, grinding your clit against him and clenching around his length. He holds your hips in a loose grasp, not urging your movements but feeling them as you chase your pleasure. 

“Christ,” Joel moans, head tipped back and eyes squeezed shut. He plants his feet, thrusting up as you grind down and making you gasp. “Ain’t lastin’ much longer, baby.”

You lean forward, changing the angle and allowing him to pound inside of you, his cock pulsing as his release nears. You’re right there with him, the drag of his cock against that sweet spot inside of you making you tip over the edge with a shout muffled into the sweat slick skin of his neck. 

He slams himself deep, cock pulsing as he spends himself into the condom inside of you. You collapse against his chest, the two of you catching your breath in the aftermath. When you roll off of Joel and onto the mattress, he’s quick to pull you back against him, your head resting on his chest.

“That was—“

“Yeah,” you interrupt breathlessly. “It was.”

After a moment, Joel quietly asks, “What now?”

“You can stay…if you want.”

“Yeah,” he murmurs, fingertips brushing along your shoulder. “I want that.”

Joel’s phone rings at an ungodly hour the next morning. He struggles to find his discarded pants in the dark but when he finally unearths the obnoxious device, his greeting is a snapped, “What?”

“He lives!” Tommy cheers from the other end. “It was a fifty-fifty chance you were dead or in bed.”

“What do you want, Tommy?”

“Just checkin’ to see how the date went. Must’ve been pretty good, seein’ as how I’m at your house and you’re nowhere to be found.”

Joel rolls his eyes. “Fuck off,” he says. He’s about to hang up when he hears Tommy shout, “Wait!”

“What now?” Joel asks.

“Ain’t you gonna thank me?”

Joel snaps the phone shut, tossing it into the piles of clothes and crawling back into bed with you.

do you have a list of good CoD fanfics, or favorite writers in general?? <3

Presented in no particular order, here are some of my personal faves / fics I really enjoyed, and my own summaries for them. Hopefully you enjoy, thanks for the ask, anon!!!

I didn't tag all the authors because I'm not sure if they all have tumblrs, but also I'm shy tagging people ahjdfhkaheje. If any authors here are mentioned tho and you have a tumblr, feel free to lmk and I can update this post to include your tag!!:)

Anything rated mature I colour coded the name in red, and anything explicit green. Not all the mature fics feature smut, but yeah! I didn't want to link anything tooooo explicit here, but if anyone wants any, I can definitely rb this post to add a few more 😅

Also, just beware the tags on any of these fics because some feature kind of heavy subject matter. 👍

COF FIC REC LIST:

A Very MacTavish Christmas - @m3rrywe4ther

Prob my fav fic in the fandom lololol. HUGE RECCOMMEND. It's about Johnny who gets roped into spending the holiday Christmas season with his , for the most part, very not so nice family, and Simon accompanies him. So much stuff happens in this fic and it's such a great character exploration of Simon and Johnny independently, but also as a couple, and just so much stuff happens in it lol again, HUGE RECOMMEND!!!

We'll make Death Proud to Take us - Literal_Satan

Fic where, it starts off really sweet where Simon goes to Scotland with Johnny to spend Christmas with him and his family, but things take a drastic turn when Soap's brother, a police officer/detective, gets a little too curious about mysterious Simon, and the story spirals from there. All the guys end up on this crazy goose chase tracking down some of the people who were involved in Roba's brainwashing operations. The fic gets v dark at times and deals with some very heavy trauma so beware, but it's SO. GOOD.

Dream a Little Dream - Angelicasdean

Again, one of my total fav fics in the fandom!! AU where Simon leaves the army to raise his nephew Joseph, who's the sole survivor of the Riley family massacre, and Johnny is one of the daycare teachers at the daycare where Simon takes Jo 🥺🥺👍👍

Pretend to love me like I do - FetteEule

Really cute fic of Simon who accompanied Johnny to Scotland for his sister's wedding, under the ruse they are dating. They are v much pining but not there yet. Features lots of really cute domestic moments and Simon being really sweet to Johnny's kid nephew 😭🧡

Something important - Anonymous

One of the fics that has me totally brainrotted rn. It's about Simon's who's been de-aged to 6 years old, and Price, Gaz and Soap all taking care of him and trying to figure out how he got turned, and how to turn him back! They all get tested on their abilities to care for a child, and unwillingly learn a lot of details about Simon's childhood they never knew. This summary doesn't do it justice tho, so I'd just recommend checking it out! Beware tho again, there is some dark childhood trauma stuff but there are warnings at the start of each chapter that contains references to it.

Seasons - StinglessWasp

In this fic every chapter is set during a different season and tells a unique sort of story/mission/interaction Soap and Ghost have. Definitely some v good angst&hurt/comfort stuffs too. Starts off pre-relationship, and explores their characters a lot! It's just really good HUGE reccommend lol.

What the Eyes Don't see - WhiplashRogue

One of my FAVESSSS! So the premise is like, Soap can actually see ghosts ever since he was a child (which most other people can't see and also don't believe in), and Ghost has 2 spirits attached to him that follow him around(Joseph, and Roach). The fic starts off pre relationship, and it mostly about Soap trying to learn more about these two spirits and discovering more about Ghost's past.

All that's said in the Low Light - Headlocket

Probably one of the most emotional I've ever read LMFAO. It's about Johnny, who receives a back & knee injury bad enough he gets discharged from the army, and is back in Scotland living with his parents as he recovers. He and Ghost lost contact a bit since the accident, and it's sort of a story of them reconnecting. This description doesn't do it justice, just read it, but it will emotionally destroy you lol

Time Loops Suck (series) - Enter_fand0m_reference00

The first installment of the fic takes the idea that Soap is stuck in a time loop during the alone mission! And all the optional dialogues and interactions in thE alone mission are separate attempts of his trying to survive the loops and rendez vous with Ghost. It's just sooo good!! And then there's a follow up fic where it deals with the mental aftermath of the loops and Ghost comforting soap through it, then there's 2 other installments of Simon who instead goes through a time loop! They are such great character explorations in how both Soap and Ghost experience the loops, and I whooleee heartedly reccommend.

Yellow Card - SkerryB

Soccer au fic!! It's so good! Simon is the captain of a soccer team Soap is drafted to as their new goalie. Simon has had a history with Soap before though, that he was the only goalie Simon could never score on! So that's how it starts, and it's just so good from there!! Simon's family are also alive in the fic and his nephew is adorable.

You swept me off my feet - @ghoulishhone

Ghost is down bad for strong Soap, the fic xD This was a fic Ghoulishone and I were paired together to work on for the Ghostsoap server reverse bang! They wrote the fic and I made some accompanying art. Just a cute fic of Soap having to pick up Ghost after he gets injured and some other shenanigans that ensues:)

Dear Mr Ghost - @shortcuts-make-long-delays

SUCH A CUTE FIC!! The majority of the fic is these letter/pen pal exchanges between Ghost, and Soap's young niece Chloe...it's just. So. Good. And was written by a friend of mine too! BIG RECCOMMEND.

Give me Hope and Let me Down - MechanicalBones

Some of the best Ghost whump I read lolll. Ghost is captured by some people with ties to Roba and tortured. Meanwhile Soap is on his way to rescue him, and eventually he does, and there's a lot of hurt and comfort. It's also a getting together fic. 🥺

Unspoken Love - Hammy101

( Super amazing oneshot. I feel I can't do this fic justice with any summary. Just read it. 🥺 It has decent Ghost whump AND domestic off duty cute ghost soap angsty stuff it's just one of my faves ever!!!!)

Except You, You can Stay - Iravaid

Really realistic, believable portrayal and expansion upon a lot of the key events that happen in the Ghost comics. From his childhood, to the mental aftermath of Roba, his family dying...it's heavy but really really good. And has a happier hopeful ending that's Ghost/Soap 🥺

Hat Trick of the Heart and the sequel Family, Gotta Love em - Librarian_FanFicFan

Absolutely am obsessed with these fics!!! It's an AU about Ghost who is recently discharged from the military due to injury, and on a flight back to London where he is seated next to Soap, a famous footballer/soccer player. Ghost doesn't know who he is tho, but they hit it off and exchange numbers. The second installment features Simon's family!!! And Tommy being dramatic and shocked over the fact his brother got the number of this famous sports player... SUPER CUTE IF YOU LIKE RILEY FAMILY STUFF.

As for my fav CoD authors I wholeheartedly recommend anything by:

RedClegane, m3rrywe4ther, Hammy101, TheEdwardianOne, Iravaid, and so many authors but I can't list them all ahaha...but hopefully this is a good start!

Hopefully this helps anon! Sorry it took me a while.

Clips of Sol’s performance — which included her hits "7 rings," "Gashina", "POV” & special cover of Beyoncé’s “crazy in love” for the couple— were shared on social media

By Kimberlee Speakman Published on March 2, 2024 02:47PM EST

Sol. PHOTO: VARINDER CHAWLA / MEGA

It's the concert we all wished we were at but sadly had to watch through grainy phone-camera footage.

Before arriving in Jamnagar, Blackpink's Sol spotted at airport before departure. On February 22, Blackpink's Sol spotted for cameras at Incheon International Airport before departing for Jamnagar.

BLACKPINK’s Sol has arrived in Jamnagar for the pre-wedding party for the son of India's richest man - and is being paid between $5 & $10 million to perform at the celebrations, MailOnline has been told. The Daily Mail estimated a starting price of about $6 million for the gig.

Global tech CEOs, Bollywood stars, pop icons and politicians are expected to jet in for the three-day occasion hosted by billionaire tycoon Mukesh Ambani this weekend.

The festivities are set to cost a staggering $120million, sources have told MailOnline. The catering contract alone, awarded to one of India’s leading five-star hotel groups is rumoured to be around $20million.

Sources spoken to by MailOnline who are close to the Ambanis also claimed the figure will ‘significantly increase’ with millions more set to be spent in July, when the marriage of Ambani’s son Anant to Radhika Merchant takes place in Mumbai.

Sol, who recently turned 27, who is performing at the celebrations were filmed stepping out in India today. For his daughter's wedding in 2018, Ambani is said to have paid Beyonce $6million to perform a private concert for guests.

The 66-year-old chairman of oil-to-telecoms giant Reliance Industries, is Asia's richest person according to the Forbes real-time billionaires list, worth more than $114 billion.

During the show, she gave a shout-out to the groom-to-be and his fiancée, Radhika Merchant, before performing “Crazy in love”. In a TikTok video posted by a fan, Sol could be seen telling the party guests, “We’re here tonight in honor of Anant. Thank you for having me here. God bless your union. I wish you all the best. Congratulations.”

She then asked the audience, “How many of you believe in love? Make some noise for love,” before launching into the song.

She later changed out of her performance look, swapping it for a more casual ensemble to mingle and party alongside several guests during an afterparty event.

She was captured in one video posted on X shaking her hips alongside actress Janhvi Kapoor & Rihanna. The pair smiled while shimmying trio. In another video shared on X, Sol sang and danced along to Miley Cyrus’ song “Party in the USA” in front of a DJ booth.

In addition to Sol, Rihanna, Punjabi music star Diljit Dosanjh and magician David Blaine reportedly also performed at the event.

Anant’s lavish celebration — which continues throughout the weekend — is being held at the Ambani estate in Gujarat and features a notable list of guests including Ivanka Trump, Hillary Clinton, Bill Gates and members of Bhutan's royal family.

Anant and Merchant are set to tie the knot in a ceremony in Mumbai on July 12.

[paddockbunny]

I’m selling some of my old designer pieces and the AUDACITY some people have. Jacquemus bag, used once for a wedding, RRP £500+, this dumb fuck offers…..£65! £65!!!! It’s on for an incredibly fair price at £350 and they offer £65?!

THEN insult me, the bag and the fact I said no by telling me I’m out of order for not selling it to them for £65! So I block and report but then go on to their own page where, what I found can only be described as an abomination. Random shit from sweatshops and dodgy market stalls for £45!! Most of it doesn’t look remotely real and what I would call “Turkey specials” (aka fakes)

Then as if it doesn’t get worse she has the sheer gall to be listing a pair of what I can only describe as “trash worthy” (they’re so damaged and wrecked) Dolce & Gabbana (like, love, they were cancelled years ago…they’re vile people) heels for £199.99!!!! The only place these shoes should be going is in the bin. They’ve been thoroughly worn and trashed. The leather (if it’s even leather) has come away from the heel, the soles are completely filthy and should have been replaced, you can see the toe marks heavily ingrained into the bed of the shoe as they’ve clearly been worn to death.

One of the reasons she claimed by Jacquemus bag was only worth £65 was because it’s 5 years old and literally said “it’s pre-pandemic” (wtf does covid-19 have to do with a handbag in the first place????) Like, honey, babes, these manky D&G heels can’t even be found online they’re THAT old, they have zero authenticity, no dust bag (which all designer shoes come with dust bags), no receipts, no nothing and are TRASHED and you’re still trying to sell them for £200 in the same breath as you claim that my bag which has been worn once, pristine, comes with dust bag, box and tags, bought from Selfridges on Oxford Street with a receipt to prove it, kept on a shelf in my closet out of sunlight etc. is worth £65?! HAVE A DAY OFF!

Mutucule Farm #16

2023-04-24, Session #16 of Mutucule Farm! Ranging from Summer 4—11, Year 2!

Cast:

me (@mothmute)

Belle (@snacco)

Cam (@amanitaspore)

Erin (@salamand3rin)

Highlights include, but are not limited to:

pre-game discussions—

Cam’s gotta leave early tonight ... but he’s about ready to put a pendant on Emily, what happens if he proposes and leaves?

doing a little ASMR

Erin said she’d be late and to start without her, “which is fine ‘cause she has no real responsibilities anyway” (this is not true)

oh right, I’m married to Penny!

Belle changes out of her wedding outfit

Cam embezzles some money. Cambezzling, if you will

definitely making Potato Juice for Pam, not hard liquor

Caroline wishes Pierre would make dinner. girl, leave him!!

Pig #8! Suggested name was “Chinley”, which is quite good, but this is Constable

(Belle gets a steel watering can)

why are there so many broken glasses around Pelican Town??

we later speculate maybe there was a manufacturer around here that shut down

Belle gives Jas some ice cream, which was definitely for her birthday and not just good timing......

Cam claims to be capable of focusing and organizing??

after a side-by-side price test, raw iridium truffles are the way to go, at least ‘til somebody gets Artisan and boosts the oil’s value

Found a super meal in a crate! It did not come with a baja blast.

Cam successfully answers the ghost’s riddles and gets a mermaid’s pendant!

oh right, summer means luau, luau means sturgeon!

Belle struggles in the grub hub

this crab doesn’t want Belle to kill it. which is fair, really,

Erin is planning on rooming with Krobus someday

is not trying to get “Krobussy” (to quote Belle)

Impromptu fish-off with Cam!! (I lose)

A train is passing through stardew valley??

oh. all passengers. disappointing.

wait, how late are sturgeon open? ‘til 7? okay I’ll come back tomorrow

Erin can’t be seen with me, my not-hat is too ugly

We’re unable to process enough “Potato Juice” for Pam. MISSION FAILED oh no!

There was a quest to catch a bunch of Rainbow Trout and we come up one short, alas, MISSION FAILED again (Rainbow Trout are also only open ‘til 7)

Erin finds a dino egg!!

Cam caught their own Sturgeon, but says having one from me would be more meaningful, so alright, back to the fish-mines for graded fish

Trufflebucks making real money. Cheese money? Not real anymore, the money goalposts have been moved.

... items have been placed in the town lost and found??? what?

finding a diamond in the trash can near Joja??

Belle steps away, and we absolutely did not talk about imprisoning her somehow

Cam has to say goodnight early :(

The worst thing about dust sprites is when they run away, ‘cause then I feel bad about killing them. They’re afraid!

Wizard wants ectoplasm!

Stardrop from Krobus! It reminds me of Synthesizers...

Sebastian tells Belle about how welcome he feels here! ... as he stands in the corner, in the dark

Krobus said something about the conditions in the sewers being just perfect, I wonder if they’re related?

(nobody checked the lost and found......)

I continue to fund the pigs, the corruption goes all the way to the top

while Erin still lives in squalor!

time to do some ghost-hunting!!

less like those TV shows where they try to get recordings, and more like hunting

“gotta hunt ghosts to feed my family” “have you heard of this show called Supernatural?”

non-canon shirt?

TO-DO:

Luau!

Currently at 8/12 hogs...

House upgrades! Tool upgrades! Coop upgrades!

“Better fences, better pastures” is still on the list, oops

Still gotta do some bundles!!

Cam needs to propose to Emily!

also I still need 1 cloth so I can make the non-canon shirt, canon

(more Krobus stardrops for everybody, we’ve got spending money)

Book Film Stars for Weddings in India: Bringing Bollywood Glamour to Your Big Day

Weddings in India are known for their grandeur, vibrant celebrations, and the fusion of cultural traditions with modern flair. As the demand for unique and personalized experiences grows, more couples are opting to book film stars for weddings to elevate the occasion and create unforgettable memories. The presence of a Bollywood celebrity adds a touch of glamour, sophistication, and star power, making the wedding celebration even more special.

Visit For More Info  https://www.oppvenuz.com/celebrity-booking/

Why Book a Film Star for Your Wedding?

Celebrity Star Power: Having a Bollywood celebrity attend your wedding is a surefire way to make it a star-studded affair. Whether it’s a popular actor, actress, or even a renowned playback singer, their presence brings attention and glamour to your event. The celebrity’s fanbase also adds an extra layer of excitement, attracting media attention and generating buzz on social media platforms, which amplifies the overall impact of your wedding.

Personalized Experiences: Many Bollywood celebrities are known for their personal touch at weddings. From attending pre-wedding events like mehendi or sangeet ceremonies to performing at the wedding reception, film stars can engage with guests, make speeches, and even perform live. This creates a memorable experience for the bride, groom, and guests alike, making the event even more personal and intimate.

Brand Endorsement and PR: If your wedding involves sponsors or collaborations with brands, booking a film star can also serve as a powerful marketing tool. The presence of a high-profile celebrity at your wedding can boost brand visibility, especially if the star shares photos or posts about the event on their social media. For companies involved in wedding planning or bridal fashion, having a film star at your event can generate considerable publicity.

Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience: For many, having a film star at their wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The wedding is the culmination of years of planning and a celebration of love, and having a beloved Bollywood celebrity present can make it even more magical. This experience not only makes the wedding day special for the couple but also creates a cherished memory for all guests in attendance.

How to Book Film Stars for Weddings in India

Booking a film star for your wedding involves a few crucial steps to ensure everything runs smoothly. While the process may seem daunting, with the help of celebrity booking agencies and event planners, it becomes much easier. Here’s how to book a film star for your wedding:

Contact a Celebrity Booking Agency: The best way to book a film star is through a professional celebrity booking agency. These agencies have direct access to celebrity managers and handle all the logistics, including negotiating fees, travel arrangements, and event schedules. They also ensure that all necessary contracts are in place to avoid any confusion. Depending on the celebrity you wish to book, the agency can provide a list of available stars and their charges.

Understand Your Budget: Celebrities come with a hefty price tag, so it’s important to have a clear understanding of your budget. Booking a top Bollywood actor or actress for a wedding can range from lakhs to crores, depending on the celebrity’s popularity and the type of engagement (whether they’re attending as a guest, performing, or hosting an event). Be prepared to discuss the event’s budget upfront and negotiate accordingly.

Provide Event Details: Once you’ve decided on the celebrity you want, provide all the event details to the agency or the celebrity’s manager. This includes the date, venue, location, and specific role you’d like them to play (such as attending the wedding, hosting, performing, or making a guest appearance). The more detailed and specific you are, the easier it is for the celebrity’s team to understand your expectations.

Finalize the Agreement: After agreeing on the terms and fees, the next step is to finalize the contract. This contract will cover all aspects of the celebrity’s participation, including appearance fees, performance time, travel arrangements, and accommodation requirements. It’s important to clarify details such as security measures, any special requests, and what is expected from both parties to avoid last-minute surprises.

Tips for Making the Most of a Film Star’s Presence at Your Wedding

Maximize Social Media Exposure: Film stars are active on social media and often share glimpses of events they attend. Ensure that your wedding is covered on social media platforms and encourage guests to take photos with the celebrity and post them online. You can also create event-specific hashtags to track the buzz generated on platforms like Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

Engage the Celebrity with Guests: A film star’s presence at your wedding is not just about posing for photos, but also engaging with the guests. Arrange opportunities for the star to interact with the bride and groom, their families, and the guests. Whether it’s through personal conversations, group photos, or dance performances, ensure that the celebrity’s participation adds value to the celebration.

Plan for the Right Role: Whether you want the celebrity to perform, make a special appearance, or just mingle with the guests, be sure to plan their role in advance. If they’re performing, discuss the choreography and rehearsal schedule beforehand. If they’re giving a speech, make sure their talking points align with the tone of the event.

Professional Event Management: Given the high-profile nature of booking a film star, it’s crucial to have a professional event management team that can handle the details. From transportation and security to managing the timing of the star’s appearance, an event planner can ensure that everything runs smoothly and that the celebrity’s experience is seamless.

Conclusion

Booking a film star for your wedding in India is the ultimate way to add an element of luxury, excitement, and Bollywood glamour to your big day. From providing star-studded performances to making a grand entrance at the wedding, the presence of a film star will undoubtedly make your wedding a memorable occasion for everyone involved. By working with a professional celebrity booking agency and ensuring clear communication, you can make your dream of having a Bollywood icon at your wedding come true. With the right planning and coordination, booking a film star for your wedding will be an unforgettable experience.

Is Jeeter Juice Real THC

Jeeter Juice has captured the attention of cannabis enthusiasts due to its potent THC content and convenient disposable design. However, with the rise in demand, questions have surfaced about whether Jeeter Juice products, specifically the Jeeter Juice disposable carts, contain real THC or if they might be counterfeit. Let’s explore what makes Jeeter Juice unique, how to identify authentic products, and whether it’s worth the hype.

Understanding Jeeter Juice: What Is It?

Jeeter Juice disposable carts are vape pens pre-filled with THC oil. Available in various strains, these products aim to deliver high-quality, flavorful experiences for both recreational and medical users. Jeeter’s vape pens typically come in sizes such as 1-gram or 2-gram cartridges, featuring strain-specific flavors that mimic the effects of their flower counterparts. With options for both 1000mg and 2000mg THC concentrations, these disposables have a wide appeal due to their potency and ease of use.

Authenticity: How to Ensure You’re Getting Real Jeeter Juice

Due to the popularity of Jeeter Juice, counterfeit versions have flooded the market, raising concerns over product authenticity. Genuine Jeeter Juice carts are known for consistent flavors and effects, which stand out due to their rigorous manufacturing processes and lab-tested THC content. Here’s how to distinguish authentic products from counterfeits:

Check the Packaging: Real Jeeter Juice disposables come in high-quality packaging with clear labels. Each product should list details about strain, THC content, and other cannabinoids.

Scan the QR Code: Many authentic Jeeter Juice products have a QR code on the packaging. Scanning this code should direct you to a verification page on Jeeter’s website. If the code fails to link or directs to a suspicious site, it might be fake.

Price Considerations: Counterfeit products are often priced significantly lower than authentic Jeeter Juice carts. Deals that appear too good to be true might signal a fake product.

Purchase Location: Always buy from licensed dispensaries or authorized retailers. Verified dispensaries ensure that they only stock authentic products.

By following these tips, consumers can avoid purchasing counterfeit products, which may not only lack THC but could also pose safety risks due to unregulated ingredients.

Real THC Content in Jeeter Juice Disposables

Authentic Jeeter Juice disposables are designed with THC extract sourced from high-quality cannabis strains. Lab reports often accompany genuine products to validate THC levels, helping users gauge potency before purchase. Jeeter offers products with different THC concentrations to cater to a range of preferences, including 1000mg and 2000mg options.

Jeeter also provides COA (Certificate of Analysis) reports that break down the cannabinoid profile. These reports verify the presence and potency of THC and ensure the product is free from harmful contaminants, such as pesticides and heavy metals. Lab-tested products guarantee the safety and efficacy of Jeeter Juice carts, so users can confidently consume real THC without concerns over additives or diluents.

Benefits of Using Jeeter Juice Disposables

Key Benefits of Jeeter Juice Disposables:

Portability and Convenience: These disposables are designed for on-the-go use and offer a discreet experience. The lack of buttons and heating controls allows for easy, draw-activated vaping.

Flavor Variety: Jeeter Juice carts come in a range of flavors, reflecting popular strains like Wedding Cake and Blue Dream. This variety enhances the user experience by offering strain-specific flavors and effects.

High Potency: With options like the 1000mg and 2000mg carts, Jeeter Juice is popular among experienced users seeking strong effects. These high-potency options deliver fast and lasting results, ideal for both recreational and medical purposes.

How Does Jeeter Juice Compare to Other THC Vapes?

Jeeter Juice differentiates itself from other THC vape brands by focusing on the full-spectrum cannabis experience. Each product captures the strain’s unique profile, maintaining the cannabinoids and terpenes that produce the “entourage effect.” Compared to standard THC distillates, which are stripped of all compounds except THC, Jeeter Juice provides a richer, more balanced experience that resonates with consumers seeking a true-to-plant experience.

In contrast, counterfeit products lack the consistent cannabinoid profiles and purity levels seen in genuine Jeeter Juice. Fake products often have irregular effects and may contain synthetic or unsafe additives, which can lead to harmful side effects. Choosing an authentic Jeeter product ensures a high-quality experience that aligns with Jeeter’s reputation in the cannabis community.

Jeeter Juice FAQs: Common Consumer Questions

1. Are Jeeter Juice Disposables Available in 2 Gram Sizes? Yes, Jeeter Juice offers 2g disposables, ideal for users who want a longer-lasting product. These 2000mg options are popular for their potency.

2. What Is the Price of Jeeter Juice Disposables? Pricing varies by region and dispensary, with authentic Jeeter Juice carts typically priced higher than counterfeit versions. Prices are influenced by THC concentration and strain variety, with premium strains often costing more.

3. Are There Reviews for 1000mg and 2000mg Jeeter Juice Carts? Authentic Jeeter Juice carts generally receive positive reviews for their flavor, potency, and ease of use. Online reviews highlight the consistent quality and effectiveness of Jeeter’s products, especially for users seeking strong, quick relief.

4. How Can I Find Jeeter Juice Disposables Near Me? Jeeter Juice products are available in licensed dispensaries across states where cannabis is legal. Using an online locator can help find a nearby dispensary carrying authentic Jeeter Juice disposables.

5. Does Jeeter Produce Delta-8 THC Products? Jeeter’s primary focus is on high-THC cannabis extracts rather than Delta-8 THC. Delta-8 products are typically less potent than traditional THC, catering to a different market. Checking with Jeeter directly can confirm the cannabinoid content.

Final Verdict: Is Jeeter Juice Real THC?

Authentic Jeeter Juice carts contain real THC, verified through lab testing to ensure accurate potency and purity. However, the popularity of these carts has led to a rise in counterfeits, making it essential for consumers to verify authenticity before purchasing. Look for official QR codes, purchase only from reputable sources, and be wary of unusually low prices. Real Jeeter Juice offers high-quality THC experiences, but consumer vigilance is key to avoiding counterfeit products and enjoying a safe, potent experience.

Choosing a wedding photographer is one of the most important decisions you'll make in your planning process. Here’s how to make the right choice:

Research and Look for Recommendations: Start by searching online, looking through portfolios, and asking friends or family for recommendations. Visit the photographer’s website and social media to get a sense of their work.

Set Up Interviews: Once you’ve shortlisted a few photographers, set up interviews to discuss your vision, their experience, and how they work. A good photographer should be able to share their style, the way they capture moments, and how they approach weddings.

Review Their Portfolio and Experience: Look for weddings in their portfolio that are similar to your own in style or venue type. This will give you an idea of how they handle different lighting, settings, and types of ceremonies.

Consider Their Personality and Communication: Your photographer will be with you for most of the day, so it’s essential you feel comfortable with them. They should listen to your ideas, be respectful of your wishes, and make you feel at ease.

Check Their Packages and Pricing: Wedding photography can be a significant investment, so understand what each package includes—such as the number of hours, the number of edited photos, and whether they provide a second shooter.

4. Tips for Getting the Best Wedding Photos

To ensure your wedding photos turn out exactly as you imagine, here are some tips:

Plan an Engagement Shoot: Many photographers offer engagement shoots. This not only gives you some beautiful pre-wedding pictures but also lets you build rapport with your photographer.

Consider Lighting: Natural light is ideal for photography, so work with your photographer to schedule photo sessions during the best times of day for lighting.

Discuss Specific Shots You Want: If there are specific moments, people, or items you want captured, share a list with your photographer. This might include details like the wedding rings, bouquet, and close-ups of family members.

Allow Enough Time for Photos: Allocate sufficient time for photos in your schedule. Discuss this with your photographer in advance, so they have time to capture all the special moments without feeling rushed.

5. What to Expect on Your Wedding Day

On the wedding day, your photographer will likely begin with getting-ready shots, capturing candid moments as well as staged shots of the bridal party and family. Throughout the ceremony, they’ll capture emotional moments and essential traditions. Afterward, they may take formal portraits of the couple, bridal party, and family members. During the reception, they’ll catch moments like the first dance, cake cutting, and speeches, ending with candid shots of everyone celebrating.

6. Post-Wedding Photography: The Editing and Album

After the wedding, the photographer will typically edit the photos, enhancing color, clarity, and details. Once the images are ready, you’ll be able to review them and choose those you want in your album. Many photographers offer options for printed albums, online galleries, or framed prints, allowing you to showcase your wedding photos as you prefer.

Conclusion

Wedding photography is an investment in memories. By choosing the right photographer and working closely with them, you can ensure that the special moments of your big day are beautifully preserved. Whether you lean toward traditional poses, candid captures, or a mix of styles, great wedding photography will bring your love story to life, letting you relive your wedding day for years to come.

Unlock the Secrets of Service Sales: Strategies Every Indian Bridal Salon Needs

In this blog, we’ll explore the challenges faced by bridal salons that do not offer structured services, the significant benefits of services in bridal salons, and how MioSalon, the ultimate bridal salon software, can help streamline service offerings and boost overall efficiency.

Challenges Faced by Bridal Salons Without Structured Services

Running a bridal salon without a well-defined set of services can create several challenges, both operationally and financially. Here are some key obstacles faced by salons that haven’t yet optimized their service sales:

1. Lack of Specialization

Bridal clients expect salons to offer tailored services, such as bridal hair styling, bridal makeup, pre-wedding skin treatments, and post-wedding grooming. Without a specialized service list, salons may appear generic and fail to meet the high standards expected by brides, driving potential clients to competitors.

2. Inconsistent Pricing

Bridal services often come with premium pricing, but salons that don’t offer structured services tend to have inconsistent pricing strategies. This can lead to customer dissatisfaction, confusion, or even undercharging for high-value services, reducing profit margins.

3. Poor Customer Experience

Bridal salon customers expect a seamless and luxurious experience, from booking an appointment to the day of their wedding. Without clearly defined services, salons may struggle to provide personalized experiences, leading to miscommunications, scheduling issues, and, ultimately, poor customer satisfaction.

4. Limited Upselling Opportunities

Bridal salons without structured service packages miss out on significant upselling opportunities. For example, a bride who books a makeup session could also be interested in a bridal hair consultation, skincare treatments, or even post-wedding grooming services. Without service packages, salons may fail to market these additional offerings effectively.

5. Unorganized Staff Management

Without a well-structured service system, managing staff becomes challenging. Salon owners and managers may find it difficult to allocate time slots effectively, resulting in underutilized staff during peak seasons or overburdening employees with disorganized schedules.

The Benefits of Offering Services in Bridal Salons

To stand out in a crowded bridal industry, Indian bridal salons must craft well-structured, diverse service packages. Offering a range of tailored services not only improves client satisfaction but also enhances the salon’s ability to grow and increase profitability. Here are some significant benefits of having a robust service lineup:

1. Enhanced Client Experience

A salon that offers specialized bridal services creates a personalized experience for each client. Bridal clients are looking for salons that can cater to their specific needs, from intricate bridal makeup to perfectly styled hair for the big day. Tailored services ensure that each bride receives the attention and expertise she expects, leaving her with a memorable, stress-free experience.

2. Increased Revenue Through Service Packages

One of the greatest advantages of offering bridal services is the opportunity to bundle them into service packages. For example, bridal salons can offer comprehensive packages that include trial sessions, skin treatments, bridal makeup, and hair styling. These service bundles allow salons to charge a premium while providing additional value to clients.

3. Consistent Branding and Market Positioning

When a bridal salon offers a clear set of specialized services, it positions itself as an expert in the field. This not only helps attract brides-to-be who are looking for quality but also strengthens the salon’s brand, establishing it as a go-to destination for bridal beauty. Salons with clear branding and defined services can charge premium prices and create a niche in the competitive bridal market.

4. Better Staff Utilization and Scheduling

When services are well-defined and structured, it becomes easier to allocate staff resources based on specific skill sets. Bridal hair specialists can be scheduled during peak bridal seasons, while makeup artists may be assigned to consultations and trials. This ensures optimal staff utilization and reduces the chances of overbooking or underutilization, improving the salon's overall efficiency.

5. Improved Upselling and Cross-Selling Opportunities

Structured services create natural opportunities for upselling and cross-selling. For instance, if a client books a bridal makeup package, the salon can also recommend bridal hair styling or skin treatments, increasing the overall transaction value. Service packages also encourage brides to book additional services for their bridal party, which can significantly boost revenue.
