#such boring toothpaste selections in the us!

American hostility to floral flavors is truly bizarre.

All these ideas are having me so fucking giddy. The fluff is so sweet and I'm about to get diabetes type 2. Your writing is what's keeping me going, its brings me much serotonin

You think when they go shopping the boys just scamper off to the toy section while Red and Duck do the shopping? And then when the boys are lost they have like a family thing, like for example marco polo, to find each other in the store? I'm using my experience here with finding my dad but I'd feel like they'd try to look for Red since he's tall and easy to spot compared to Duck. Also Green and Yellow hiding in the clothing racks trying to scare Duck

Whilst shopping Yellow immediately tears off to the toys while Green follows at a similar pace after informing Duck and Red he's actually going over there to keep an eye on Yellow NOT because he wants to look at the toys because he's not a baby. He's being responsible. Okay BYE.

Red and Duck walk together and get all the boring grown up stuff like oat-based toothpaste and organ meats and more livetraps and jam for the rat infestation and toilet paper (they're out because of the whole mummy debacle) and maybe Red buys Duck a nice overpriced fancy coffee and Duck let's Red get a bunch of sweets and biscuits he knows he likes, and they walk around the store holding hand like OLD SAPS. Eventually, when Yellow and Green select whatever it is they want (god only knows. Yellow probably wants a slime making kit and Green wants an anatomical doll you can dissect) the just look for Red's hulking form. Or they somehow manage to use the store phone to call them over the loudspeaker and it's just them squabbling over who gets to talk and Red is laughing his ass off and Duck is MORTIFIED that they're embarrassing him in the store and when they finally find each other Duck threatens to put them both on a leash next shopping trip while Red pays and Yellow sneaks 12 packets of gum onto the checkout

1939

I don’t eat a lot of fast food. Not true. I like my fast food. What I don't eat lots of anymore would be processed junk food. The older I get the more underwhelming it tastes for me.

I’ve never had a one night stand. Yeah, not something I'd do.

My last text message was from the opposite sex. False.

I have a good friend that I can tell anything to. I've been very lucky in this regard.

I didn’t straighten my hair today. I hate how straightened hair looks on me. I had it done once, in Grade 6/7, and never repeated it.

I have quite a small group of friends. The older you get the smaller it gets, dude. At least for me.

^But that doesn’t bother me. Not at all. I like reserving most of my energy for myself and my own company. Everyone who stays with is a lovely and a welcome bonus, but I'm also not desperate to chase people.

I’ve been told I have nice eyes. Not my eyes specifically, but I've gotten complimented on my eyelashes since they're naturally long.

I wear a lot of black. Not in the I-wear-all-black-all-day-everyday level that was trendy in like 2015, but I just have a lot of black pieces because they also just happen to be the easiest to style and match and such.

I worry a lot about what other people think. I only get super bothered when I hear of or have a sense of people not liking me because I literally only keep to my fucking self, so it's just this genuinely baffled feeling of "What did I even do to you?"

^But I dislike feeling this way, because it’s impossible to please everyone. I know it's impossible to please everyone but I hope I could know what the hell I did to those people who've given me subtle attitudes lol

I used to doodle in my workbooks when I got bored. The back of my high school notebooks and textbooks were full of doodles and penmanship practices, especially for subjects I didn't like or find boring.

I use whitening toothpaste. It's just ordinary toothpaste.

People sometimes describe me as ‘cute’. Never heard anyone other than my ex use that word for me.

I hardly ever wear skirts. I don't like how open and exposing they feel!

I get quite upset if something doesn’t turn out the way I planned. I'm a bit more easygoing now in life, but if it's a work-related thing that was prepared for a couple of weeks in advance and had a few practice rounds but STILL goes awry, that's usually when I'll start feeling a bit uptight.

If I’m totally honest, I don’t really know what I want most of the time. Definitely in the quarter-life crisis era. I wish I could figure it out. I don't even have a 'dream' next job to move to, so my job applications just feel like darts I'm throwing out randomly. I want to be able to find something I genuinely find fulfilling, but can also sustain.

I’ve been bullied before. People were out to fucking get me because of my name. I didn't understand it then, I don't understand it now; and until today I still dread introducing myself even though I've grown to like my name.

I’m shy. Eh, not really. I'm selectively introverted, meaning I'll be quiet around certain groups of people; but I don't think I'm shy.

I dislike that. I'm okay with my level of quietness. It just means I know how to reserve my energy, hahaha.

I’d be shocked if someone called me a slut. Never been a big fan of sex lol

I don’t have a ‘perfect’ body. And I'm okay with that.

^I try not to worry about my weight. I grew up watching my mom obsess about weight and her freaking out over gaining like 2 lbs even though she's like 120 lbs total. So I knew I didn't want to be like that.

I remember important things like birthdays. Idk, I guess I'm just good at dates. I still remember many of my grade school classmates' birthdays.

I listened to cheesy pop music when I was younger. Late-00s to early-2010s was a great time for pop music.

^I can’t stand music like that. Who cares if it's cheesy. If I find a song a bop, it's a bop lol.

If I’m honest, I do try to please everyone. I'm a people pleaser through and through and I don't really like that. It also what makes me not the best leader.

I was awake till very late last night. I guess, ish. I stayed up until around 2 AM.

I have a decent singing voice. Oh no, I can't sing at all.

I told someone that I love them today. I don't think I have, no.

My parents are still together. Yes, they've been together since '93.

I had a happy childhood. I have select core memories with my cousins, but I also lived with men who drank and smoked all the time. Sometimes they got violent. I was a witness of physical fights between my parents more than once. So no, I wouldn't call it a happy childhood.

I have a YouTube account. Sure, but I don't post videos on it. I just opened an account so I can curate my recommendations and such.

I will be staying at home tonight. We're going out to visit my uncle's coffee shop.

I don’t go to church. I go every Sunday.

I still watch Disney films sometimes. It's what I mainly use Disney+ for, haha.

I don’t think I’m beautiful. Eh, I've learned to be confident and comfortable in my own skin.

I didn’t get any cards or presents last Valentine’s Day. I'm not seeing anyone, so.

I know someone who has been to prison. I can think of one.

I don’t really regret anything. Maybe some small petty regrets here and there, but in the grand scheme of things, regret isn't really a part of my vocabulary. What's done is done and I don't find any point in mulling over what I think to be mistakes or wrong decisions I made.

I probably care too much about what other people think. I have so much crap to take care of and prioritize that stressing over what other people are thinking is often the last thing on my mind.

How Can Parents Make Brushing and Flossing Fun for Kids?

Maintaining good dental hygiene is crucial for children, but getting them to brush and floss regularly can often feel like a challenge. At Kidloo, we believe that making oral care enjoyable is key to instilling healthy habits that last a lifetime. Here are some creative ways parents can turn brushing and flossing into a fun activity for kids.

1. Choose Fun and Engaging Products

Start by selecting dental care products that appeal to your child. Kidloo offers a range of colorful and exciting toothbrushes and toothpaste designed specifically for children. Brightly colored brushes with fun characters or their favorite superhero can make brushing feel like an adventure rather than a chore. Our fluoride toothpaste comes in kid-friendly flavors that are sure to make brushing a more enjoyable experience.

2. Create a Brushing Routine with a Twist

Routine doesn’t have to be boring. Turn brushing and flossing into a daily ritual that includes something your child looks forward to. For example, create a brushing chart with stickers that they can add each time they brush or floss correctly. Set small rewards for completing the chart, such as choosing a fun activity or an extra bedtime story. This not only makes brushing a fun part of the day but also encourages consistency.

3. Use Music and Games

Turn brushing time into a dance party or a game. Play a favorite song or use a timer that plays music for the recommended two minutes. You can even create a brushing song or dance routine that your child can follow. Making it a fun, interactive experience helps your child associate brushing with positive feelings and keeps them engaged throughout the process.

4. Make Brushing a Family Activity

Children love to mimic their parents. Brush and floss your teeth alongside your child to model good habits. Let them see that oral care is something everyone in the family values. You can even create a "brushing team" where each family member shares their favorite brushing tips or songs. This not only makes oral care a family affair but also reinforces the importance of dental hygiene.

5. Tell Stories and Use Imagination

Incorporate storytelling into your brushing routine. Create a fun story about the “toothbrush hero” or “flossing adventure” where your child helps the hero defeat plaque monsters or protect their pearly whites. Using imagination and creativity can make the process feel like an exciting quest rather than a mundane task.

6. Offer Choices

Let your child have some control over their brushing routine. Allow them to choose their toothbrush, toothpaste flavor, or even the song that plays while they brush. Providing options can make your child feel more involved and enthusiastic about their oral care routine.

7. Use Technology Wisely

There are many apps and digital tools designed to make brushing fun for kids. Some apps feature animated characters that guide children through the brushing process and provide rewards for completing their routine. While technology can be a helpful tool, it’s important to balance it with other engaging methods and ensure screen time is kept within healthy limits.

8. Celebrate Success

Celebrate your child’s efforts and progress with positive reinforcement. Praise them for their brushing and flossing achievements, and make sure to acknowledge their efforts regularly. Positive reinforcement can build confidence and make your child more eager to continue their oral care routine.

9. Involve Your Child in Choosing Dental Products

Let your child participate in selecting their dental care products. Take them shopping and let them pick out their favorite toothbrush and toothpaste. Involving them in the decision-making process can create a sense of ownership and make them more excited about using their new products.

10. Educate and Explain

Help your child understand why brushing and flossing are important. Use simple, age-appropriate explanations about how brushing keeps their teeth clean and healthy and prevents cavities. Understanding the reasons behind oral care can make it more meaningful and motivate them to stick with their routine.

At Kidloo, we are committed to making dental care fun and effective for kids. By incorporating these tips and using our engaging products, you can help your child develop a positive attitude toward brushing and flossing. Remember, the goal is to make oral care a joyful and rewarding experience that sets the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles.

Summary: Ever since you were a child, you had dreamed about getting your mark and finding the perfect person. When you finally got your mark, a quarter-sized star on the inside of your wrist, you were delighted! Your fairytale romance was just getting started. Egon didn't believe in fate. He didn't believe that a mark on your body meant something just because it matched a mark on someone else's body. When he woke up one morning and found a star on his wrist, he brushed it off. Moles could be star-shaped, he supposed.

1972, Columbia University

I notice the mark in the mirror when I'm brushing my teeth. A quarter-sized star on the inside of my wrist that wasn't there when I went to bed.

Excitement bubbles up in my chest as I put my toothbrush down to examine the new mark. A select few people were lucky enough to receive a mark. Never in a million years would I have thought I was one of the lucky few.

The childish dreams of 'soulmates' and 'true love' never really faded from my mind as I grew up. My mother's stories as a child were still vivid in my mind. Even as the months passed after my nineteenth birthday and I still hadn't received any marking, I hadn't given up hope. But here, on a random Tuesday morning, all my secret longings finally became a reality.

The idea of a mark match was such a romantic idea to me. Finding that person who bore the same mark as you and falling madly in love. Knowing that you were compatible in romance and life? It was a dream come true for me.

Hollywood only furthered the romanticization of 'the mark'. All films and television shows involved couples who were lucky enough to find their mark match and fell madly in love. Magazines ran articles for teenagers with real stories of mark matches. I wanted what those people had, the undeniable connection with someone at first glance. The shared mark to show we were a pair.

Giddy with the knowledge that I would get the romance I had always craved, I dash out of the bathroom to call my mother, not bothering to wipe the toothpaste from the corner of my mouth.

1974, Columbia University

Finals week, Junior year. These are the moments that count. The moments that will begin to dictate which graduate programs I'll be accepted into. My time has to be managed perfectly. 

Would I rather go out for drinks with my friends after classes? Yes. But I have to be responsible. There will be plenty of time to get plastered once finals are over.

The professor wraps up the class, again reminding us of the date and time for the final exam. I jot it down at the top of my page even though I've had it written in my planner for weeks now. 

I walk out of the classroom with my peer and one of my only friends in my field, Ray Stantz. He's chatting away about one of the points Professor Graves made during lecture.

"I've got to get going, or I'll be late," Ray checks his watch, "See you at the final." He waves before taking his leave. I wave back, beginning my walk across campus towards the library.

Before class, I had suggested we study together in the library, but of course, Ray had other plans tonight. Probably a date with the girl he's been seeing for a few weeks. It must be nice sometimes to be unmarked. I couldn't get myself to date much. The occasional time I went out with a guy, they were nice enough. But the mark made me wary of seriously dating any of those guys. What if I ran into the love of my life and had to hurt someone? It wasn't fair to anyone.

***

The library, of course, is packed. Finding an open space seems nearly impossible by the time I've taken my third lap around, that is until I see a spot has opened up by a guy hunched over a circular table.

The table was small, but I wouldn't take up too much space. It should be fine to share.

I tap on the man's shoulder, "Would you mind if I sat on the other side of this table?"

Without even looking up from his work, he replies in a deep voice, "Fine."

"Oh, uh-- thank you." I move around the table to the seat across from the grumbler, setting my backpack down before sitting down in the chair.

He's a mop of dark hair bent over a notebook that he's scribbling in. I watch for a moment as his hand rapidly moves across the page.

Right, I ought to get to my homework instead of watching the strange man work on his.

Reaching into my backpack is harder than it looks at this angle. I plant my feet on the carpet, twisting my body at an awkward angle to reach into the backpack for my Psychology book and notebook. Right as I've almost got my hands on both, my foot slips, kicking the stranger squarely in the knee.

I straighten quickly, feeling positively mortified. "Oh my god! I'm so sorry!"

He looks up, and my heart begins to beat faster. Never in a million years would I have expected the student wearing a sweater vest over a white polo to be cute. The scowl and everything.

"It's fine."

I pull the bag of M&M's I brought for a snack out of my bag, "Could I offer you some, as an apology? I'm (y/n), by the way."

"Egon," he eyes the bag for a second before reaching out his hand for the M&Ms.

The cuff of his shirt rides up with the stretch of his arm, my eyes drawn instantly to the star on his wrist. My eyes shoot up to his. No way...

The questions escape my mouth before I can stop them, "What's that? On your wrist?"

He snatches his hand away without the M&Ms, "It's a mole."

"A star-shaped mole." 

Egon goes back to his notebook, "Yes."

I bite the inside of my lip, my eyes narrowing as I look at him. What a liar! What's so wrong with having a mark that he has to lie about it? "Oh, have you gone to a specialist for that? A star-shaped mole sounds dangerous."

I notice the way Egon's lips tighten, "I have not."

"You're lying."

"I haven't gone to--"

"No, not that." I frown at him, "That's a mark, not a mole!"

"I don't believe in those fairytales."

My face drains of emotion. I've waited for this moment to find my match, and the one I match with doesn't even believe in the mark. Just my luck!

"You don't believe in the mark? Like at all?"

"No. Why would a small mark on my wrist dictate my life?"

Because that stupid mark means we're perfectly compatible, you oaf.

"You don't find it romantic? Destiny and all that?" I have to ask for my own bruised ego.

"It's nonsense."

Well ouch. I pull the sleeve of my shirt down my wrist, not wanting this... jerk to see we've got the same star mark in the same place.

"You're unbelievable. You're one of the people lucky enough to have a mark, and you don't even care."

Egon puts his pencil down, "Why do you care?"

The eye contact we're sharing is exactly the opposite I had hoped for when I met my mark match. I don't exactly know what to say to that. I could come clean and show him the matching mark on my wrist, but I'm not sure I want to be matched with this jackass, even if it's 'fate' or whatever.

I toss my head, "I don't care."

He grunts and goes back to his notebook. 

Ugh! He was the last person I wanted to be mark matched with. The thought makes me miserable, though, because even as I'm already annoyed with him, he's supposed to be 'it' for me. 

***

My watch reads ten p.m. when I start to pack up my backpack to head home. My table mate is still scribbling away in his notebook, not looking like he'll ever grow tired of it.

Is this really what the universe thought I was compatible with? Really?

I zip my backpack up before pulling the straps onto my shoulders and turning to walk back to my apartment.

Egon speaks, "Good night, (y/n)." He's still hyper-focused on the notebook when I look back at the table.

Something in me warms, "Good night, Egon."

[blackacre13]

Can you please write part 5 of the proposal au ?

Part 6 was just posted, so here’s part 7:

“I have seven tattoos,” Lou announced, leaning over to reach for the water she’d tucked into the seat in front of her. “Do you need to know what they are or is that enough?”

Debbie was thrown, stuttering to try and come up with a response, torn between extremely curious and not sure if she was prying too much.

“Oh, and you probably need piercings too, right?” Lou continued. “You can obviously see my ears, but my tits are pierced too.”

“Your…”

“Tits, Debbie,” the blonde sighed, taking a sip from her water. “My nipples are pierced. So jot that down in your diary for INS or whatever.”

“I—uh—ears, just my ears,” Debbie muttered, trying not to look at the blonde in the eyes as she chuckled beside her. “Two holes each.”

“You look like you could use a drink,” the blonde smirked, waving off a flight attendant like she was in a fancy restaurant instead of using the service button.

Debbie watched in awe as Lou ordered something from the flight attendant, passing her a black credit card through her fingers as the attendant laughed at something likely flirty or sultry that Lou had said. Her mouth was completely dry and her heart was hammering in her chest.

“You alright in there?” Lou laughed, placing a selection of miniature liquor bottles on top of her closed laptops. “Let’s make this interesting, shall we?”

Debbie blindly grabbed for one of the bottles in front of her, twisting open the cap and throwing the entirety of the mini bottle back before closing her eyes as the burn hit the back of her throat.

“God, you get flustered really easily,” Lou chuckled, watching Debbie with great interest as she looked back at her exasperated. “It’s sort of endearing. Cute, even.”

Debbie merely blinked at the blonde, no longer able to comprehend what the hell was happening on this airplane and trying her damndest not to stare down at Lou’s chest and see if she could see anything poking through the fabric of her shirt.

“You said interesting?” Debbie finally breathed, trying to keep her brain on track and her focus calm and serious as she could.

“Yeah,” Lou nodded, lining up her own little bottles meticulously into a lineup on her tray. Debbie watched, noting with amusement, that she was lining them up in color order with her finger before she turned back to Debbie. “We alternate asking each other questions. If the other person already knows the answer, then you take a shot. If not, we get the answers we need to stay on the same page so we don’t get caught.”

“You sound like we’re planning how to commit a crime,” Debbie exhaled.

“I mean, aren’t we?” Lou grimaced. “But good, yes. Think of it that way. Partners in crime.”

“I think wives is the key term.”

“I’m not your wife,” Lou chuckled. “Yet. But come on. It’ll help pass the time while we fly and it’ll make you feel better, Debs.”

“Okay,” Debbie agreed. “You’re right. You go first.”

“Alright. Have you ever broken any bones?”

“My wrist when I was a kid. Danny did not know how to safely arm wrestle,” Debbie laughed. “Doesn’t take much to make an arm snap apparently. You?”

“Come on, you should know this one,” Lou teased.

“You broke your finger two years ago,” Debbie nodded. “You never got hurt as a kid or anything?”

“Cuts and scrapes, sure. But never broke anything til then.”

“So, take a shot. I knew the answer,” Debbie smirked.

“I needed an excuse to take a drink,” Lou grinned, throwing back part of the first bottle in her lineup. “Wanna know how I did it?”

“How exciting could the story be?” Debbie snorted. “I mean it’s a finger. You wore a splint and texted with one hand for like two weeks and then it was over.”

“Your loss,” Lou laughed, playing with the bottle cap.

“God, that means it’s a sex injury, doesn’t it?” Debbie groaned, covering her face with her hand.

“Bingo, honey,” the blonde winked, throwing back the rest of the tiny bottle. “What kind of toothpaste do you use?”

“That’s boring.”

“It was from your email of necessary information,” Lou scowled. “Besides, you know mine.”

“Only because I’ve had to run out and buy it at ten pm when I should’ve been home.”

“But those tampon runs are something great, right?” Lou teased. “Come on. It’s the little stuff, right?”

“Crest,” the brunette sighed.

“Aw, honey. Look at that. We can share.”

“Thank goodness,” Debbie mumbled, twisting open another bottle. “Why do you ride a motorcycle to work?”

“Beats the subway,” Lou shrugged, but Debbie kept her eyes trained on her. “I like having that time alone. No thoughts. No people. Just me and the road. Can barely hear yourself think if the wind is whipping fast enough.”

“I get that,” the brunette hummed.

“You don’t have a driver’s license, do you?” Lou realized.

“I have one,” Debbie corrected her. “But no, I don’t drive. Scares the shit out of me.”

“Why?” Lou whispered, genuinely curious, her hand inching towards the shared armrest between them.

“Danny got into a pretty serious wreck when he was in high school. I can’t stand the thought of losing him.”

“You guys are really close, then?”

“Yeah,” Debbie smiled. “Pretty competitive, but—he’s my best friend.”

“I don’t have any siblings,” Lou muttered.

“I know,” Debbie nodded as she watched the blonde take another drink. “You’ll really like Danny. Could be like the big brother you’ve never had.”

“I’d like that, actually,” Lou hummed. She thought for a moment. “God, he’s going to totally threaten me that I better take care of you or some shit isn’t he?”

“Oh, absolutely,” Debbie giggled, taking a sip from one of the bottles. “I can’t wait.”

The Inherent Domesticity of Target’s Home Decor Section

Pairing: Michael Clifford/Calum Hood Rating: Teen Word Count: 2076 Read on AO3

Michael has mixed feelings about Target.  On one hand, Target is better than Walmart, and he appreciates that they get to design different album covers and sell special editions there.  On the other hand, walking into Target makes him feel like he should have his life together more.  That’s not to say that his life is a disaster; his life is actually pretty great, and he feels like a fully functioning adult.  However, the store still gives him the niggling feeling that he should buy a planner and some post-it notes and turn into a suburban mom.

“Do you think I should buy a planner?” he asks.  Calum hums, reading the back of a DVD that’s on sale for $5.  When he shifts to put it back on the shelf, Michael shifts right with him, arms around his stomach and cheek plastered against his shoulder.  It’s earlier in the morning than Michael would like, so Calum gets the privilege of holding him up as punishment for dragging him out into the world at this time of day.

“Why do you need a planner?  Ashton takes care of that stuff for the band,” Calum says.  He picks up another DVD and flips it over.

“Yeah, but maybe I should put down everyone’s birthday or something,” he says.  Calum snorts and Michael pinches his side, because he’s apologized for forgetting his birthday that one time sincerely and profusely and gave Calum a pretty spectacular blowjob to make up for it.

“Would you even use it?” Calum asks.  Michael considers and has to concede his point.

They look at DVDs for a few more minutes because Calum gets a kick out of what a place like Target choses to stock in their meger selection.  Michael lets him slip some animated thing he thinks he watched once as a kid into the basket, content to stand there while Calum takes his time and just breathe him in.  He loves being close to Calum, letting his familiar smell fill his nostrils and leeching body heat.  He lets their breathing sync up and imagines that he can hear his heartbeat, slow and steady and almost putting him to sleep standing up.

Nowhere feels like home quite like Calum does.  Even in the middle of Target, Michael feels better than he ever has alone in his house.  It makes him wonder why he’s even living alone, and why Calum pulled away and they stopped messing around when neither of them have girlfriends.

The bottom line is that he misses Calum nearly every moment they’re apart, but he doesn’t know how to articulate this without the crushing fear of rejection.  Calum loves him, and he knows that a significant part of Calum’s world revolves around Michael, but that doesn’t mean they necessarily love each other in the same way.  Michael wants grocery shopping and kisses and late night cuddles regardless of if they have somewhere to be in the morning and lazy sex and laughing at each other’s ridiculousness so hard that he can’t breathe.  Calum wants a platonic best friend.

“What else do we still need to get?” Calum asks, shaking Michael out of his reverie.

“Toothpaste, I think.  And vitamins.”

“Look at you, being healthy and shit.”

Michael pokes his side and Calum tries to wriggle away, giggling because Michael knows exactly which spot tickles the most.

“Just because I don’t let Ashton drag me to yoga like you do doesn’t mean I’m unhealthy.  I get the most sleep out of any of us and I drink a fuckton of water.”

“I know, I know,” Calum says.  “Want to check the CDs?”

It’s a distraction tactic, because Michael will always check the one-shelf CD selection, especially so soon after one of their own releases.  Michael makes the conscious decision to allow himself to be distracted.

“Okay.  CDs, then toothpaste, then vitamins, then I want to look at the home decor.”

“What do you want to look at the home decor for?”

Michael shrugs, knowing that Calum can feel it.  There’s just no non-incriminating way to say I like to see your reactions and pretend that we’re picking out stuff for our house because I might be fully in love with you and I want you in every single crevice of my life.

That’s the issue with Target: it makes him feel domestic and long for things he can’t have.

“Excuse me?” a new voice says, and Michael first feels a twinge of annoyance at someone interrupting his moment and then a twinge of panic that it could be a fan when he definitely doesn’t have the emotional or physical energy to put on a public persona.  One look at the owner of the voice dispels that notion.  The woman is on the later side of middle-aged and looks pretty much exactly like the kind of woman who cooks meatloaf and has 3 cats and actually does go to Target to buy planners.  As inclusive as the band tries to make their music, Michael can admit that she’s not exactly in their immediate wheelhouse for fans.  Nevertheless, he straightens up a bit, but the woman is smiling so he thinks he can maybe get away with still locking his arms around Calum’s waist.

“Sorry to bother you, but I just wanted to say that you boys make such a cute couple!  It’s so nice to see young people in love.”

Michael stiffens, but Calum puts a hand on his arm, effectively anchoring him in place before he can pull away.

“Thank you.  It’s nice to be in love,” Calum says, and Michael’s breath stutters in his throat.

The woman beams and for a moment Michael thinks she’s going to reach out and pinch Calum’s cheeks, but she just bids them a good day and continues towards the books.

“CDs?” Calum asks, casual as anything.  Michael nods and fully pulls away, not trusting himself to speak or to touch.

It was just a nice thing to say to a romantic woman, but it’s nice to be in love plays on repeat in his head like a broken record.  He knows, he knows that it doesn’t mean anything, but Michael would give almost anything to have it be the truth.

There are five copies of the Target exclusive edition of CALM on the shelf.  There’s also a Neil Diamond greatest hits collection and a few random soundtracks that Calum points out, but Michael can barely focus.  He kind of wants to skip the toothpaste and go straight home, but he also doesn’t want Calum to question why that small interaction with the woman threw him so off kilter.  By the time they make it through the checkout and back to Michael’s car, he feels like he’s going to vibrate out of his skin.

Calum waits until they’re out of the parking lot to start talking.

“I’m sorry for making you uncomfortable earlier.  That wasn’t my intention.  I just figured that was the easiest response.  I know we’re not--I know we don’t do that anymore.”

In a different world where Michael hasn’t kept a very tight lid on his feelings for his best friend for the past eight years, he would have crashed the car.

“I know,” he says instead.  Silence fills the space, heavy and uncomfortable.  Michael keeps his eyes resolutely on the road and tries not to read too much into how Calum keeps taking a breath as if he wants to talk before cutting himself off.

“And I understand,” Calum says suddenly, almost causing Michael to swerve.  “I understand why we’re not together anymore.”

“What,” Michael says.

“I’m not trying to get you back, or whatever.  I know you don’t think of me like that.”

“That I don’t--” Michael chokes.  “I’m sorry, what?”

“Come on, don’t make me say it,” Calum says, shifting in his seat.

“No, hang on.  I don’t understand what you’re saying to me right now.”

“Mike, stop it.  Now you’re just being mean.”

“Calum, you’re the one who pulled away from me.  Personally, I don’t understand why we’re not together anymore.  I didn’t even know that we were!”

“That’s bullshit!  What did you think we were, if not together?”

“I don’t know, fucking around?  I thought we stopped because you got bored of me.”

“Michael, we stopped because we got asked about ships in an interview and you got really weird about it.”

“Yeah, because I’ve been in love with you for half my life!”

Silence descends, and Michael absolutely cannot look at Calum right now.  The only things that exist are the steering wheel in his grip and the strip of road in front of him.  There’s still a good ten minutes until he reaches his house, and Michael is very content to spend those ten minutes pretending like he is alone and has not just revealed his biggest secret during an argument that he still doesn’t quite understand.

“Pull over.”

No such luck, apparently.

“Michael, pull over right now.”

He eases over and puts the car in park, letting his hands fall into his lap.

“You’re in love with me?” Calum asks.  Michael nods.  “We’re so stupid.”

“What?” Michael asks, finally looking over at Calum.  He doesn’t look uncomfortable or sad, he looks exasperated.  Michael isn’t sure what that’s supposed to mean.

“We’re idiots.  We could’ve been happily dating this whole time.  Hell, we probably could’ve been married by now,” Calum says.  “I’m in love with you, too.”

Michael blinks at him and really wishes his brain was operating a bit faster.

“Calum,” he says, for lack of anything else.

“Michael,” Calum grins right back.

“Are you serious?” he asks.  Calum rolls his eyes.

“Why would I joke about this?”

Michael shrugs helplessly.

“Michael,” Calum says seriously.  “I made you park the car.  We just had a conversation that obviously made you uncomfortable.  Why the fuck would I be joking right now?”

Michael shrugs helplessly again.

“You love me?” he asks.  Calum reaches over and grabs one of his hands.

“I’m head over heels, crazy in love with you.  It’s pathetic.  It’s ridiculous.  I want to jump you in this car right now.”

Michael laughs.

“Not in broad daylight,” he says.  Calum smiles in a way that makes something settle in Michael’s stomach, something that he hadn’t realized had been unsettled ever since they stopped seeing each other.

Fuck.  He’s so lucky.

“I’m in love with you, too,” he says.  Calum’s smile widens.

“I know,” he says.  “You just told me that.”

“Well, I wanted to tell you again.”

“Well, I’m in love with you, too.”

They’re talking in circles now--wonderful, love-sick circles--and Michael is thankful for multiple reasons when Calum breaks it by leaning over the center console to kiss him.  Calum’s lips are familiar under his, and even after months without feeling them Michael has them memorized.  This kiss feels different, though.  There’s a surety to it that they haven’t had before, a question and agreement that thrills him.

“You’re sure you don’t want to roll around in the back seat right now?” Calum asks softly when they part.  Michael grins and knocks their foreheads together.

“You’re funny,” he says.  “Ha, ha.”

Calum kisses him again.  Michael could definitely get used to this.  If their previous conversation is any indication, he’ll have plenty of time and opportunity to get used to this.

This time when the kiss breaks, Calum fully leans back rather than keep breathing his air.

“Okay,” he says.  “Let’s go home, Michael.  We’ve got years of a honeymoon phase to catch up on.”

Michael puts the car in drive and eases back onto the road.  They’ll have time to drive around again later, because Michael definitely wants to do another circuit of the Target home decor section with this new revelation.  Maybe he’ll try to find a card for the woman who confused them for a couple, just in case they happen to run into her by the post-it notes or planners.

Either way, Michael thinks that Target might be his favorite store now.  He glances at Calum to find him already looking at him and his chest warms.

Yeah, Target is definitely his favorite store, but he’d be okay with never setting foot in it again if it meant he could keep spending time with his favorite person.

Thankfully, the way that Calum leans over to kiss him at a red light seems to mean that he agrees.

CASHurDRIVE  - How Effective is Transit Advertising

For any company or business, it is very important to do marketing and advertising. Advertising is nothing but an exercise of promoting a company and its products or services through paid channels. There are many types of advertising a product.

Some of them are:

1. Traditional advertising (such as ads on TV, radio, and newspapers)

2. Retail advertising (such as ads on carts of a shopping mall)

3. Online advertising (such as contextual ads in search engines, banners on websites)

4. Mobile advertising (such as banners to download apps)

Apart from these 4 types of advertising, a new type called transit advertising came into the spotlight nowadays.

What is transit advertising?

In simple words, transit advertising is nothing but advertisements used on transported vehicles. They can use either public transportation or private transportation to advertise their products.

How does it work?

Let's talk about a person- Rohit. He travels to his office daily by bus. Inside the bus, he daily sees an ad for toothpaste. Now when he goes to market next time to buy his monthly groceries, he thinks to try that toothpaste and buys it. That's how it works! When a person sees a product or service daily, then he/she will automatically think of trying it once. Transit advertising can be called an advertising technique that has moving billboards and hoardings. There will be a wide range of audiences to read the advertisements.

Types of transit advertising:

Even though transit advertising includes buses, trains, airbuses, taxis, cabs, ships, etc; we can mainly classify this based on the exposure.

1.   Inside transit advertising: in this type, the advertising cards will be in the interior of the bus/train/ any transport vehicle.

2.   Outside transit advertising: in this type, the advertising cards/ hoardings will be outside of the transport vehicle. For example, if we take a bus, the boarding can be fixed on either the right or left side of the vehicle or its backside. When you are stuck in traffic, and there is a bus ahead of you, if it has an advertisement on its tail side, you will definitely notice it before the signal turned into green! Likewise, every transport vehicle has a chance of having advertising boarding of both of its sides and also tail side.

Advantages of transit advertising:

1. Exposure: By transit advertising, a product or service can reach a wide range of audiences of all ages, genders, and places. As the transport vehicle travels from one city to another, crossing multiple places, there are wide ranges of chances of people to read and connect to the content which can make them buy the product.

2.   Time: When a bus carrying the interior advertisement cards travels daily from one place to another, and if a person travels daily in that bus, then that person is likely to read the same board again and again this can trigger him to buy the product once.

3.   Affordable and smart: Transit advertising is the cheapest way of advertising. Traditional advertising in TV or radio may get disturbed when the electricity went off; while in the case of transit advertising nothing of that sort happens. And also it reaches different cities at an affordable price.

Transit advertisements should be simple and easy to convey in one line so that customers won't get bored reading so much lengthy lines! Even though it is a very affordable and budget-friendly way of advertising, one should selectively consult a company that can deliver them what they want in the advertisement. CashurDrive is such company that provides the customers what they need.

CASH UR DRIVE is India’s one of the first on-vehicle advertisement companies which offer Cab Branding, Auto Advertising, and other media solutions to spread the word about your brand to every possible place founded by Mr. Raghu Khanna.

Stark's Bug

And we finally landed in the Marvel universe from here on out the events of the movies will play into the story as well as my own ideas so, enjoy! Also, sidenote Starkid songs kept popping into my head while proof reading so if you see any spelling errors it's their fault for having such catchy songs.

Words: 1606

Chapter 6

As any 6 year old you were currently groggy because you just woke up. Your mood worsened by the fact that your dad would leave for a business trip today.

"Somebody woke up on the wrong foot." Said man commented as you dragged your feet towards the table. You filled your bowl with cereal and chose to ignore his comment. You were rather mean spirited when you woke up.

"Oh using the force first thing in the morning I see." He said as he observed. "You really have a grip on it now, don't you? The first time you tried that, you were fully awake and still managed to cause a milk flood." He chuckled. You cracked a smile remembering the scene. Especially the part where at attempt nr. 18, he slipped in the milk and crashed onto his behind breaking out in a full of string of bad words.

"Looks like you're coming back to me now." He joked and continued with telling you the funny things you clearly remembered that we're caused because you didn't have full control over the force.

You still don't completely but you just repeat whatever you want to learn until you could do it half asleep and moved on to the next thing.

Once the cereal was down you were almost completely awake and ready to face the day.

"You ready to brush those pearly whites?" Tony asked

"Yes! Can I use my new toothbrush?" you asked following him into your bathroom.

"Yes, that's why you have it."

He handed you your toothbrush and toothpaste from the sink and took his own.

You two brushed while you pulled faces at each other in the mirror. Giggling over the weird face he pulled you almost chocked on foam.

He helped you wash your face which had a milk and toothpaste beard before he washed his own.

"Alright, are we done here? Or did we forget something?" He asked you scratching his chin, pretending to think.

"We have to shave!" you said like it was the most obvious thing in the world and got your "razor"  from the sink.

"Yeah next thing you know you'll be looking like Santa if you don't shave!"

You two went to his bathroom to "shave" since he is a responsible father who doesn't keep sharp razors in his son's bathroom.

Recently you had insisted on doing it with him just like you brushed your teeth and washed your face together it was just the next logical step for you. So instead of watching him do it, you now joined in.

He applied some shaving cream to your face, then to his own. You were mimicking his movements to the best of your abilities as he was doing it. And because you're so good at copying you always ended up with a shaving cream beard that resembled your fathers. Tony dies a little at the cuteness everytime he sees it.

Your clothes today were picked out by you. It was a cute starwars t-shirt, bright green pants and your Captain Magic jacket. The most stylish outfit you have in your humble 6 year old opinion.

You came out of your bedroom with your backpack on your back.

"I'm ready daddy!" you shouted walking toward the stairs to the lab/garage as every day before..

"Are you sure? I think you forgot something." he said walking down the stairs with you.

You thought for a moment.

"What? I didn't forget anything." At that he placed a pair of sunglasses onto your head.

"There now you look like me!" he said giving your head a kiss, "You also forgot your homework."

"I didn't have homework.?" You said absentmindedly as you examined your new sunglasses that matched the ones your dad was always wearing.

"Really? Because I remember clearly that you asked me to hand you some pictures of you for your class project." he said holding an envelope toward you.

"That's not until tomorrow."

"But you could already take it with you so you don't forget it when I'm not here to remember it." you took the envelope. And climbed inside one of the cars. This one only had two seats and one of which had a booster on it.

Your name was written on the envelope in your fathers handwriting, and when you peaked inside you saw all the pictures you had selected with him yesterday. You put them in your lap as you buckled up.

Bobbing your head along with the music during the drive to school and singing along to a few lyrics you knew, the day seemed to start out okay. Just as any other day but a lingering sadness sat deep within your stomach.

As your dad stopped the car infront of your school, it hit you. This was the last time you'd see him for the next few days. While you were used to him having to take trips without you, they usually were only a day long. And the last trip that was longer you didn't even remember. This would be the first time where he wouldn't be back the next day since you were 3. It made your stomach sink and throat close a but, especially since you'd be staying in your home rather than spending the night at your uncle's or aunts house.

"Ready for a fun d-- Hey what's wrong?" Tony asked seeing the tears build up in your eyes.

"I don't want you to leave." once admitted you started to bawl your eyes out.

Your fathers eyebrows shot up in worry. He quickly got out of the car walking around it to pull you into his arms.

"Aw, Bug. It's only a few days. I'll be back before you know it. It's alright, I'll miss you too. You still have Happy, and Obie, and Pepper." He soothed gently swaying back and forth.

"I don't want them... I want my daddy." You choked out between sobs. A sound that made Tony's heart wrench.

"I know but, how about I'll tell them to take you to that cool park you want to go to? You're going to have so much fun you won't even realize I'm gone."

"I don't want to go there with them, I want to go there with you." You cried out sniveling and wiping at your face.

Tony sighed as he rubbed your back soothingly.

"Bug, I already moved the date last time. Uncle Rhodey said he'll drag me there if I don't go. I promised him, and you know that we can't break promises, right?" He tried to reason, you nodded through your tears.

"How about we go somewhere when I'm back. Where would you like to go with me, hm?" He asked soothingly petting your head still swaying.

You sniffled as you calmed down. "I,  I wanna go to the park with you."

"The amusement park?"

You nodded.

"Alright, as soon as I'm back we two go to the park and have some fun. Does that sound good?"

"You Promise?"

"I Promise. Do you want me to bring you to your classroom?"

"Carry me." you said laying your head back on his shoulder.

Tony chuckled, grabbed your stuff and carried you into the school. He was slightly concerned considering that you usually weren't this clingy when it came to his trips. It was probably because of how long it was. He reassured himself.

He got looks from other parents left and right, most parents at this school didn't really seem to like clingy or even just emotional children, he found that odd but ignored their looks. You reached your classroom way too soon in your opinion. He put you down and crouched in front of you.

"So, are you feeling better now?"

You nodded.

"Alright, here's your stuff. Uncle Happy will pick you up and bring you to the Daycare since he still has work to do. If you get homework take care of it there, then you don't have to lose so much free time? Don't do anything I would do. I love you Bug. I'll be back in about 76 hours. Have some fun while I'm gone." he told you softly not wanting to leave just yet after such an emotional outburst.

"I will. Love you too, daddy."He sighed, gave you a hug and stood up. Slowly you went into the classroom not wanting to worry him any further. But still extremely welled up with emotions you couldn't describe properly.

After taking off your jacket and putting it away together with your other things you sat down on your table next to your friend Jason.

Together you waited for the bell to ring and school to begin.

Lessons became boring quickly and you passed most of them daydreaming about things while completing your work.

In the breaks you played with Jason, Sam and Ryan, your usual friend group. You had forgotten all about your little breakdown this morning by then.

You were picked up by Happy as told, together with a bunch of other kids since he apparently took over "bus duty" from the daycare for the next three days. Ryan also needed to come to daycare so you sat together.

At Stark Industries you completed your homework and told Ryan the answers so the two of you could play together.

Too soon you were brought home by Happy and spend the rest of your almost uneventful day eating fast food and watching a bunch of Disney movies. You drifted off in front of the TV without even changing into your pj's.

You were unaware that while you had your much needed sleep your father was currently living through some events that would change the course of both of your lifes forever.

Your sleep was uneasy almost as if knowing that something wasn't right.

Culture's appeal requirements are ever-evolving and changing, as well as among the rising fads these days's elegance society, we see that it values the particulars of our whole appearance, consisting of emulating the smiles that we see on movie and also TV celebrities. Self-esteem is improved by a brighter, whiter smile, so it's not surprising that increasingly more individuals are utilizing teeth whitening and also cosmetic dentistry as a way to enhance their appearance.

There are a couple of myths as well as misunderstandings when it involves teeth whitening, so read on in order to put your worries to rest as well as obtain you started when driving to your best smile!

Teeth whitening can damage your teeth

You might have listened to something along the lines that teeth whitening can harm your enamel or external layer of your teeth, or that it removes layers of your teeth, creating damages and potentially spoiling your teeth. You can feel confident that this is totally incorrect.

When our clients involve see us concerning teeth whitening, one of their main worries is if the procedure is mosting likely to hurt their teeth. We understand why they would certainly be worried about it as well as why they might be hesitant to continue, yet we can ensure you that teeth whitening has actually been repeatedly developed as being a safe treatment.

Cosmetic dentistry has actually developed, and also now professional teeth whitening does not damage the enamel or strip any facet of your teeth. Instead, it works by passing through the layers of the tooth (dentine and also enamel), brightening the tooth from the within out.

At-home Treatments Function the Exact Same

You need to be incredibly mindful and cynical when making use of at-home teeth whitening therapies, as they eliminate the safety and security internet of specialist cosmetic dentistry. Several of the active ingredients included in these can consist of rough and acids which would certainly cause your teeth damages.

At-home teeth whitening techniques can in some cases get the job done, however the results will certainly be short-lived, as expert treatments permeate the tooth in a deeper way, delivering more long-term outcomes.

You will certainly Never ever have the ability to Consume Alcohol Red Red Wine, Tea, or Coffee

While it holds true that the specialist teeth whitening result will not be as durable if you consume or eat products that tarnish your teeth, it doesn't mean that you can never have an additional mug of coffee in your life. We will advise you to steer clear of from teeth staining foods as well as drinks only during the program of the teeth whitening. Later, you can preserve your brilliant smile and white teeth by having excellent oral health as well as visiting us regularly, so we can get rid of any kind of stains and maintain your teeth.

You can Bleach your Teeth with Lightening Toothpaste

Bleaching tooth paste does function to some level, especially if you clean your teeth with a fluoridated tooth paste. It's essential that you make use of a great tooth paste after professional teeth whitening, as they can remove surface stains from teeth as well as help keep your smile brilliant and stain-free.

My Teeth are Too Delicate

During the training course of professional teeth whitening, the sensitivity of your teeth might be worsened, especially if you already experience sensitive teeth. Nonetheless, just having sensitive teeth doesn't mean that you can not have your teeth skillfully lightened. Before beginning the treatment, we will certainly look out for any areas that have actually raised sensitivity, and also look after your teeth according to those outcomes.

Also if you don't experience tooth sensitivity, it is possible that your teeth may be a lot more delicate than typical throughout the process. There is no requirement for worry as this is definitely typical, you simply need to be client.

Teeth Whitening with Blue Light Provides Faster Results

If they are done by an expert, Blue light lightening therapies can work. If the process is not done appropriately, you will obtain a minimized long-term result. When using the gel as well as blue light at house, what you are doing is not bleach your teeth, you are in fact dehydrating them. This dehydration will certainly make your teeth show up brighter, while not being any whiter. This option may seem quicker and also more affordable, however you will not get good results.

You Can Search For the Ideal Deal

There is currently a really high demand from teeth whitening, as well as our company believe that it is more than likely one of the most requested cosmetic dentistry procedure. Teeth whitening is popular around the globe, so it makes good sense that individuals are looking around for the ideal offer.

Really, all teeth whitening gels that have been expertly recommended will certainly lighten your teeth, despite the brand or the rate, as the core ingredients will most likely coincide for all of them. There might be some differences in procedures or certain details, however the clinical study behind them will be the same, and they all have the very same goal.

Nevertheless, as with whatever else, you obtain what you pay for when it pertains to teeth whitening. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is, which is why you need to remain away from heavily discounted alternatives. In our point of view, teeth whitening deserves its cost, as your smile is something that you have with you everyday. We will constantly talk about all the readily available options with you however never concession on getting the outcomes that you want.

Residence Remedies Such as Charcoal, Bicarbonate Soft Drink, or Coconut Oil Pulling Job Equally As Well

House solutions for teeth whitening have been a prominent topic recently. Oil drawing has actually been a warm topic recently, declaring that it can bleach teeth and get rid of microorganisms as well as plaque. We do not suggest this as there have been no definitive studies concerning this, as well as it will definitely not make your teeth any kind of whiter than simply gargling or toothpaste.

While bicarbonate soft drink is a terrific active ingredient that can be used for a wide variety of points consisting of reducing the effects of smells, eliminating stubborn fabric or carpeting stains, and also cleaning your kitchen area, it must not be used for teeth whitening. Bicarbonate or charcoal might do a decent task as well as lift coffee or a glass of wine spots from your teeth, it will also use your teeth down as they are abrasive products. As well as bear in mind, when this enamel has actually been used away, it never expands back! You don't desire beautiful but harmful teeth, so it's far better to leave this to the experts.

Tooth Whitening Does Not Last For Life

Things we consume, and also drink can stain our teeth, making them show up duller than they as soon as were, but it's super easy to maintain your white smile by routine sees to your cosmetic dentists as well as proper oral hygiene.

During regular consultations or examinations with our people, we will determine your needs and also assumptions, combining you with the most efficient lightening system for your budget plan and also your requirements.

If offered the selection, no person would certainly choose a darker shade of teeth, as well as everyone is trying to find a whiter and brighter smile. Boring or tarnished teeth an influence your confidence, so why not come see us to enhance your smile. We grin if you grin!

While it is real that the expert teeth whitening impact will certainly not be as resilient if you consume alcohol or eat products that tarnish your teeth, it doesn't imply that you can never have one more mug of coffee in your life. We will certainly recommend you to remain away from teeth discoloring drinks as well as foods only during the course of the teeth whitening. Afterward, you can keep your bright smile and white teeth by having great oral hygiene and also visiting us on a regular basis, so we can remove any type of stains and maintain your teeth.

It's essential that you use a good toothpaste after professional teeth whitening, as they can eliminate surface stains from teeth and also help keep your smile brilliant as well as stain-free.

Throughout the program of expert teeth whitening, the sensitivity of your teeth might be aggravated, specifically if you already experience from sensitive teeth.

mint chocolate and awful movies

[read on ao3]

“Tonight, on the big screen… A Midnight Inking, the ultimate trilogy! Drug makers in the dark, secret black market under Inkopolis’ noses discover a new radioactive substance by chance, but what do the side effects of this new substance entail? Watch now, or stay forever in the dark!”

Marina groaned. “Are you kidding me, Pearl? Even the books for that series weren’t good.”

“Oh? You talk like you’ve read ‘em?” Pearl waved the stack of disc boxes around, eyebrows raised.

Marina crossed her arms, scoffing. “Well of course I have. Inkopolis’ library needs a bigger selection!”

“There’s a reason Inkopolis’ library doesn’t have a selection, smart stuff. But guess what!” Pearl slammed all the discs onto the table. She poked Marina’s nose. “Whooooo won the splatfest?”

Marina rolled her eyes. She didn’t bat Pearl’s finger away.

“…you did.”

“Thaaat’s right! Which means, no more book talk tonight, no boring words on paper, just action and crime syndicates!” Pearl poked Marina’s nose again, for good measure.

“But please, Pearl, couldn’t you have at least picked a better series?” Marina pleaded.

“Nope!”

“Not anything? If you make me watch these movies my eyeballs will fall out.”

“Cool.”

“Not cool! If you make me watch these I’ll bleed out and die because these movies suck so much.”

“So you’ll watch… anything else?” Pearl pursed her lips thoughtfully. “How about… Squidmarq, the Complete Adventures?”

“Oh cod, no—“

“Midnight Inking it is, then.”

“That’s not fair! Squidmarq is a TV show!”

“Ah ah,” Pearl batted her eyes. “Who won the splatfest?”

Marina glowered. “I hate you. I’ll burn your TV.”

“I’ll buy another one.” Pearl opened the first movie's disc box.

“I’ll replace your mayo with toothpaste.”

“Isn’t that supposed to happen the other way around?”

“I’ll… I’ll fall asleep during the movie?” Marina sunk to her knees in defeat, slumping over the low table.

“Don’t worry about that, I’ve got us enough sugar and caffeine to last us another week. It might kill us, but I’m not letting you sleep through these.” Pearl smirked, dropping the disc into the player’s tray. She took the remote and plopped onto the couch, patting the place next to her. “C’mon, Marina, sit up here.”

Marina gently banged her forehead on the table.

“I don’t want to bleed out on your sofa,” she muttered.

Pearl smiled, grabbing Marina’s arm.

“Come onnnn, get up here!” It was like trying to lift a sack of rocks. “Cod, Marina, you weigh like a million pounds—“

She thought for a moment. “Hey… Marina…I got you something for tonight…”

“Is it bleach? For my eyes?”

“No… it’s better than bleach for your eyes… It’s ice cream…” Pearl tugged lightly on Marina’s arm. Her head lifted a little off the table. Pearl let her hand slip down into Marina’s, lacing their fingers together. “...mint…chocolate flavor?”

Marina smiled a little, turning around.

“Mint chocolate?”

“Yeah, and pretty sure… there are a coupla’ spoons… out on the counter…”

Marina squeezed Pearl’s hand once and let go, heading to the freezer in the kitchen. She returned with a tub of ice cream and two spoons.

“Throw it here!”

“I’m not throwing the spoon, Pearl.” She sat down gently and ripped the plastic seal off, holding her spoon in her mouth. “Jus’ shtart the movie, I wan’ get dish over wif.”

-

Two movies in, the ice cream tub sat on the table, half-finished and probably more soup than ice cream at that point. They’d forgotten personal space around the same time as they’d forgotten the ice cream; Marina’s head pillowed on Pearl’s chest, one of her tentacles wrapped around Pearl’s arm.

“Don’t fall asleep, loser…” Pearl yawned, using her free hand to rub little circles into Marina’s hip, where her shirt rode up.

“We were just performing for twenty-four hours, Pearl. We may be young, but we’re not…gods…” Marina cuddled in closer, her nose brushing against Pearl’s jaw.

“We got… we got…one movie left… n’we’re done…” Pearl reached for the remote.

“It’s like two in the morning,” Marina’s voice was scratchy with exhaustion. She yawned. “Let’s just… go to bed…”

“Weakling! We gotta, we… one more and we’re done…” Pearl flicked the remote and started the last movie, which opened with the typical pan-shot over the city, slowly dipping to the protagonist’s underground shelter.

Pearl nudged Marina’s shoulder. “Y’know what?”

“Hmm?” Marina hummed in response.

“I think this is a pretty dumb series.”

Marina snorted. Pearl felt her smile against her collarbone.

“I mean, by the end of all this, the radioactive whatever thingy didn’t even matter? It was like this dumb, stupid mushy love story. Where’s the… people dying cos’ their skin melted off? Ya know? The whole point of these crime movies is to have action, and well…crime.” Pearl watched as the main guy’s dying father offered him some words of wisdom, before falling victim to the radioactive thing’s side effects. “See? It’s all too mushy.” Pearl blinked. “Marina?”

Marina’s breath had evened out, her eyes shut and lips parted slightly. She was asleep. The only light in the room was from the TV screen, painting shadows over Marina’s face as she slept. It was pure contrast, the violent flashes of color over her peaceful expression.

Pearl pressed a half-kiss to Marina’s forehead, and flicked the TV’s volume down.

-

Marina woke up first, blinking groggily against what was definitely not her pillow. It was still partially dark in the room, thanks to Pearl’s blackout curtains. Her mouth tasted like sour milk; she wrinkled her nose and swallowed thickly.

Her head still felt too heavy to lift, so she settled back onto Pearl, making a soft, sleepy noise when two arms snaked around her waist in return.

“Mornin’ sunshine…” Pearl muttered.

“Shut up,” Marina grumbled. “…too early…”

“Not that early…” Pearl yawned. “We’ve… got time…”

Marina hummed, settling down into half-consciousness until Pearl roused her again.

“C’mere…’rina…” she nudged Marina a little, trying to shimmy down so they were face to face. Marina was having none of it, Pearl’s plan was proving to be harder to carry out than she thought.

“Look at me, you shit,” Pearl pinched Marina’s shoulder, hard.

“Well now...that’s some real charm… how could I ever resist?” Marina squirmed in Pearl’s arm, using all the strength her sleepy arms had to offer to rest on her elbows, hovering over Pearl. “What.” She said flatly.

“Just noticing how much of a morning person you are…” Pearl smiled, lifting her head up to kiss Marina. She pulled away for a moment. “Your morning breath is gross.”

“You’re not too bad yourself,” Marina muttered dryly. She leaned down this time, meeting Pearl halfway. They kissed softly, lazily in the way only the early morning can bring. Pearl slid her hand under Marina’s shirt, splaying her fingers over the small of her back.

Marina sighed lightly against Pearl’s lips, letting herself melt.

“Hey,” Marina muttered between kisses. “…do you know what time it really is?”

Pearl paused, her lips buzzing and kiss-red. She craned her neck, peering around Marina’s arm at the clock.

“Remember how I said we have time?” She smiled.

“…yes?”

“I lied.”

Marina’s eyes widened, and she looked at the clock. She nearly choked on an inhale, scrambling off the couch. Pearl pouted, shivering at the sudden loss of warmth.

“Are you crazy!? We have to be at the studio!” Marina ran to her bedroom, halfway pulling her shirt off. The door slammed shut.

Pearl glanced down at her own outfit, a baggy shirt with questionable stains, and an old pair of shorts with ripped pockets. She should probably get changed, too.

She looked over at the remnants of the ice cream goo in the tub, two spoons sticking out haphazardly. Today was going to be a long day.

This creates a breeding ground for the very bacteria you are hoping to avoid. Alcohol-free mouthwash is also less of a temptation for kids and teenagers looking to experiment with when bored.

This is a bad idea, especially since poor oral hygiene can lead to gum disease or even diabetes. Consider sedation dentistry, in which the patient is not awake during the appointment.

Ideally bristles should be firm enough to remove plaque but not so firm that they irritate and damage your gums. Whether you choose angled bristles or straight bristles is a personal choice and depends on which type you feel works best. If you need to have a dental procedure done, make sure that you ask about the costs before you have the procedure. If you have insurance, find out how much your insurance will cover.

All it takes is being educated with great tips such as the ones presented here. The next step is to follow the tips here and use them to guide you along to that perfect set of white teeth.
