“Everyone else compares you to the moon, but to me you’ll always be the sunrise.”

“Why the sunrise?”

“Because I saw it through tendrils of hair while my head rested upon your shoulder. Lavender, violet and magenta hues reflected in your already blue sky eyes. Like my very own Monet, carefully crafted before me. Have you ever seen the brilliance of daybreak shine in a smile that was just for you? And as the heat warmed our skin and our bodies pressed together, you kissed me. In that moment I knew, if I could have defined it eons ago, you would be the definition. To me, you are the slow rise of morning light. The warm caress of sun rays. A masterpiece.”

Post-identity reveal galas that Bruce and Clark both attend become a game of cat and mouse as Bruce tries to subtly corner Clark to "accidentally" spill his champagne all over him so they have an excuse to go talk in private about superhero stuff (clark does not find this nearly as funny as bruce does)

“room” - Jegulus microfic - @into-the-jeggyverse - 324 words

Regulus is sitting on the floor reading and James is laying on the couch behind him, his fingers carding through Regulus’ hair. Regulus finishes his book and wants a new one but doesn’t feel like moving yet so he scans his books from where he’s sitting. His eyes make their way up one bookshelf and down another then back and forth across a third shelf. He looks at the books on the end table, on the floor by the armchair and under the coffee table before thinking about the books in the bedroom.

“James?” James hums in response. “I think if we ever get a bigger flat, I want a room for my books.” Regulus tells him.

“You want a library?” James asks.

“No.” Regulus scoffs. “I do not want a ‘library’. I’m not that pretentious. I just want a room with a bunch of bookshelves where I can meticulously organize my books. Maybe come up with some sort of organization system. And probably an armchair or two so I can read in there if I want to.” Regulus explains. 

“Love. That’s a library.” James tells him.

“It is not.” Regulus says a bit petulantly.

“Okay, what would you call it then?” James asks and Regulus hesitates.

“It’s… it’s a… a book room.” Regulus fumbles.

“A book room, huh?” James mocks and Regulus whips around to face him.

“Yes!” He hisses. “Regulus’ Super Special Book Room. No Jameses Allowed.” Regulus glares at him.

James is not deterred by Regulus’ glare at all and barely tries to stifle his snickering. Regulus gets off the floor and unceremoniously drops himself on top of James.

“Shut it, Potter. Can I have a library or not?” Regulus continues to glare.

James wraps his arms around Regulus’ waist. “We would absolutely get a flat big enough for your super special book room, love.”

“Good.” Regulus nods once, then snuggles up beside James.

“Will I be allowed in the book room?” James asks shyly.

“We’ll see.”

Does Mr. Turner like rubbing his “son’s” successful career in Dinkleberg’s face??

He does! He brags about Timmy's success to every person within the neighborhood's vicinity. Mr. Turner loves how successful his son is! It really secures his reputation at the neighborhood HOA meetings they host at their house.

Timmy's worked very hard to gain more successes than failures. The more successful he is, the greater his family's social standing!! And the less he gets to overhear his dad ranting to the neighborhood about his failures.

Writing Reference: Whiskey

Whiskey - a general term for an alcoholic liquor made from fermented mashed grains.

Bourbon - the term for a whiskey made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn; traditionally made in Bourbon County, Kentucky, and most bourbon is still produced in the state of Kentucky.

Whiskey vs. Whisky

In the United States, the spelling whiskey is preferred and is what you’ll see on labels of American-made whiskeys. You’ll also see this spelling on Irish whiskeys, as it’s the preferred spelling in Ireland.

Outside of these two countries, though, the spelling whisky is typically preferred to refer to the same general type of drink. Countries that produce this drink, such as Scotland, Canada, and Japan, typically use the whisky spelling on labels.

In general, whiskey and whisky are different spellings for the same general type of alcoholic beverage.

The plural form of whiskey is whiskeys, and the plural of whisky is whiskies.

Even when using the same spelling, specific drinks may have differences from each other. For example, the United States and Ireland both use the whiskey spelling, but the drinks themselves often have different production and distillation methods that will make them look and taste different from each other.

Bourbon & Whiskey

Whiskey - a general term for an alcoholic liquor made from fermented grain mash.

The particular grain (or grain mixture) that is traditionally used will often depend on what is readily available in the local area.

For example, Irish whiskey is typically made from barley, while American whiskey is usually made from corn or rye.

Most whiskeys are aged in wooden containers and almost always are at least 40% alcohol by volume.

Is bourbon a whiskey?

Yes. Bourbon, also known as bourbon whiskey, is a whiskey that is made primarily from corn.

In fact, bourbon must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn in order for it to be called bourbon in the United States.

Bourbon production also makes use of particular types of barrels and particular distillation and bottling methods.

However, the corn requirement is the main aspect that makes bourbon unique from other types of whiskey.

Bourbon vs. Whiskey vs. Scotch

Scotch whisky - commonly known as scotch, is another specific kind of whiskey.

While bourbon uses corn as the primary grain, Scotch whisky is typically made mostly of malted barley.

Like bourbon, Scotch whisky also has specific distillation methods and requirements. Just as importantly, a drink can only be called Scotch whisky if it is made in Scotland.

Rye Whiskey vs. Bourbon

Rye whiskey - often shortened to just rye, is a type of whiskey that must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% rye.

Rye often uses a different, specific distillation and aging process as well.

And at least in the United States, it’s rye whiskey. When it’s made elsewhere, such as in Canada, it’s rye whisky.

Other Types of Whiskey

Often, whiskeys (or whiskies) are named for the place they come from or for the ingredients used to make them.

Irish whiskey

Canadian whisky

Japanese whisky

Tennessee whiskey

Malt whisky

Blended whiskey
