So like a critical component of understanding team green and Alicent’s motivation for pushing their claim is completely lost on this fandom because of the fact that it’s so irrelevant nowadays that we wouldn’t even consider it.

But like…for most of human history marriages, especially aristocratic marriages, were binding social contracts that were meant to provide benefits and incentives to both parties. The woman would perform her wifely duties of bearing heirs (sons), child rearing, emotional (and physical - sometimes against her will unfortunately) support, and generally running the household in domestic affairs. And in exchange for these labors and quite frankly difficult and at times harmful tasks the woman was provided with safety from the outside world, all her needs being taken care of, and her children being the heirs. And a woman’s son being the heir means consistent protection into her old age when her often much older husband eventually died.

There was a purpose to marriage outside of love and ambition. But because we are privileged enough to live in a more modern society where marriage is a personal contract for which the technicalities can be selected by both individuals to ensure security and happiness, we cannot really even consider that once upon a time in the not so distant past there was a clear purpose. The man got sons/heirs and the woman got sons/protectors to care for her in her old age.

So when Alicent pushes for her son she has a plethora of reasons: believing in tradition, protecting the lives of her children who have competing claims, consolidation of suffering, etc. But she has one very clear and very reasonable reason that nobody acknowledges. She delivered on her part of the bargain and contract and she wants to collect what she is owed. She produced the sons, she gave the emotional and physical support (against her genuine will), she reared the children, she ran the household domestically and the entire kingdom. She did “everything expected of her forever upholding the kingdom, the family, and the law”. And now it’s time for her to collect her dues now that her much, much older husband is dead. To have her son be king and to be taken care of into her old age.

That is the contract she agreed to. That is the contract almost every woman in history agreed to. I give you a son and I get comfort and security when you (the husband) die and my son becomes the heir.

So I can go on and on about the personal, psychological reasoning that Alicent has that are all perfectly valid. But I don’t have to because at the end of the day she did her part of this marital obligation and contract and she deserves to receive her rewards.

8. Native-led suicide prevention program focuses on building community strengths

“[Indigenous researchers have] designed programs that aim to build up a community’s endemic strengths, rather than solely treating the risks facing individuals within that community. By providing support and resources that enable access to Alaska Native cultural activities, they hope to strengthen social bonds that build resilience. […] “In a Yup’ik worldview, suicide is not a mental health disorder, and it’s not an individual affliction, it’s a disruption of the collective.””

[enarei]

After African missionaries circulated initial reports about the slave labor behind sugar in the 1790s, some consumers desisted from sugar entirely -- "anti-saccharites", mostly fervent Christians such as Quakers. As the East India importers created a market in Britain, anti-slavery societies became their free marketing teams, widely distributing pamphlets such as "What Does Your Sugar Cost?" A Cottage Conversation on the Subject of British Negro Slavery. Meanwhile, in America, the free-produce movement was led by black women, who encouraged their segregated groceries to buy only slavery-free goods.

The bind that free Black Americans faced in sourcing their food and raw materials was especially harsh. They were forced to buy "ethical" expensive cotton from white farmers instead of black slaves, which frustrated those trying to support black businesses. They sought coffee from Liberia and Haiti, hoping that the majority black demographics of these countries would support black uplift and prevent slave labor, and these created natural (and, indeed, slavery-free) coffee industries in those countries which indeed persisted for some decades.

The most surprising part of this story comes in the 1840s. After abolishing slavery in 1836, Britain had placed tariffs on slave-produced sugar in order to ensure fairness for British sugar producers who paid their laborers. This inflated sugar prices generally. Without tariffs, "free-labour sugar" would cost three times as much as its competition, defeating the East Indian importers' argument that slavery was a corrupt process which artificially inflated prices. It soon became clear that the writing was on the wall. In 1845, the primary importer of "free-labour sugar" exited the sugar market, and the following year, Britain decided to remove all the tariffs, for the benefit of consumers. Free-labour sugar completely vanished as a category thereafter.

Meanwhile in the United States, abolitionists criticized the free-produce movement as ineffective; similar to "free-labour sugar", it only placed an extra economic burden on those struggling to live ethically. It was recognized on both sides of the Atlantic that making individual consumer choices was not enough, and that systemic change was necessary to permanently eliminate slavery. As a status symbol, though, "free cotton made by escaped slaves" continued to be worn in Britain and attracted comment in aristocratic salons into the 1860s. In this final stage of the movement, free labor was considered to be part of a civilizing project, a way to train ex-slaves in useful arts.

[alicentsgf]

Your post about how tb stans say alicent think women shouldn't rule

I wanted to add rhaenyra herself denied two eldest daughter right to rules and said " son before daughter " let her own illegitimate boys get baela and rhaena birthright and coryls choose kids that aren't even from his own blood over his own granddaughters

It's ironic how they ignore the amount of misogyny in team black

This is something that drives me a bit insane if I'm honest. Aka when people try to make this war ideological and it just isn't. Alicent thinks women can rule just fine. Rhaenyra also thinks women can rule just fine, (but most especially she believes it is her right to rule, as her father's chosen heir). But they also both recognise male primogenature, because ultimately neither of them have the individual power or need to do anything about it. On this issue their stances are pretty identical, bar Rhaenyra's one quibble with it that benefits her specifically.

Literally not one of these characters is making any of their decisions on the basis of their personal politics, its almost entirely about self-interest - who they support in their claim is only ever based in their own needs and wants and emotional attachments. Even Otto, who is so clearly using Rhaenyra's gender and the way that interacts with the laws of succession to undermine her, is not doing it for ideological reasons, or because he thinks women less capable of ruling (he does he's a raging misogynist but thats not his main incentive). He's doing it because he wants his grandson on the throne, for his own ends. If Alicent and Viserys had only had daughters, we all know Otto would still be claiming his granddaughters to be somehow more fit or entitled to rule than Rhaenyra.

Pretending like one side is pro misogyny and one side is anti misogyny makes no sense it's just an easy way to demonise the side you personally don't like when really picking a "side" in this conflict at all is so dumb for so many reasons I literally cannot begin to list them all.

[aesolerin]

So, a dd2 class guide (of all things) ended up bringing me to some really fascinating realizations when it comes to how Baldwin and Sarmenti are foils to each other, so of course I can't help but share it with you.

Short Version: Leper and Jester as characters contrast themselves in terms of personalities compared to skills. These seemingly in-built contradictions are the exact opposite of one another, which is likely why they synergize so well from both a narrative and game mechanics perspective. The makes them a duo of complimentarily contrasting contradictory characters. (yeah, try saying that five times fast)

Long Version: As we both know/adore about him, a key feature of Baldwin as a character is his selflessness, this key desire he has to help and serve others, while his own personal happiness instead comes from the simple joys of life. In his backstory he went out of his way to comfort his sick citizens, killed off his advisors to keep his kingdom safe before abdicating, and even now the reason he wants to die fighting is to help others succeed in their goals with all the skills he has available.

It's super interesting, then, to look at what said skills actually do - heal himself, mitigate his own inaccuracy, protect himself from shuffling via immobility - all things prioritizing self-reliance first and foremost. Out of his ten DD2 moves, only two can be said to have some level of 'party support' mixed in - Purge to clear corpses, and Intimidate to weaken enemies (and remove stealth when upgraded). And even they exist first and foremost to mitigate the blindspots in his own fighting style. Altogether, even as this seems to contradict his actual values as a person, it wouldn't be wrong to frame his entire kit as selfish in nature.

To put it another way, Baldwin personally goes out of his way to help others by prioritizing himself first.

Compare this, in turn, to Sarmenti - a character narratively defined by selfishness (eg; his desires, his ignited ambitions, his prolonged suffering, his current suicidal death wish, plus any other impulse or whim he has at any given moment). And yet, his skills are almost entirely support-focused, with even a lot of the damage-dealing ones being less about the damage and more about applying debuffs and combo tokens to the benefit of the team. It's such a selfless prioritization of others that he has barely anything left in his toolkit that focuses on either his own survivability or his damage-dealing capabilities. (His main exception being Finale, which one could still argue is selfless in how it leaves him immediately vulnerable and slow after he's likely nuked an enemy from any possible rank - meaning the ideal is for other people to take advantage of this.)

As such, Sarmenti's selfish desires and goals lead him to greatly prioritizing the group's benefit over himself as an individual.

And it's this nature as foils, this reversal/mirroring of each other's innate contradictory natures, that make Jester and Leper such a complementary duo both in terms of personality and combat synergy.

idk, that's just how I came to look at 'em in my pretentious academic perspective on the ship, lol. you got any thoughts brought up by it??

oh man, this is such a fantastic analysis, i feel like there's nothing more i really need to add! i do have some thoughts though:

looking at this and thinking about it, yeah isn't it just a bit odd that the selfless Leper barely aids his team, and if anything eats up a lot of the resources they put out? man eats combos like he needs them to live because he kinda does. but oh man, if you take care of Leper he will take care of you tenfold. he rewards selflessness with his strength.

i think his skills could also be viewed not as entirely selfish, but as self-reliant. gently turning down Vestal, Occultist, Plague Doctor's, any sort of healing and simply fortifying himself, allowing them to heal someone not as strong as him or attack with their own skills. using Purge to both strike down a foe and clear corpses so someone else doesn't have to nor can their enemies take advantage of it. let him weaken a foe and draw their ire with Intimidate, he has the strength to take it.

and Jester is such a fun contrast to think about, his top-tier supportive skills vs his snarky and biting personality. all that setting up and dancing he does, the grand orchestra he plays, why doesn't he make himself the star? i think he'd insist it's because he's a twig in a clown costume, why should he be drawing the enemy formation's attention? the faster the warm bodies between him and those bastards cut said bastards down, the better. hence, a selfless skillset for selfish reasons. there is probably some element of fun/humor to it, too. man's Silly.

and together, they work perfectly in sync. Jester wants those bastards dead before they hit him, Leper will smite them out of existence if given the opportunity. Jester will give him those opportunities, Leper will strike down their enemies. also they kiss. nature is beautiful.

Anbu & Root

 Analysis

Both of these groups work in the shadows

  (I’m not using the novels)

Anbu

are covert operatives of capable ninja that are dispatched by their village kage. There are apparently no ranks within the Anbu; team leadership and hierarchy seem to be based on merit and experience. The leaders of the teams are called squad leaders, a position held in high regard.(This mostly goes for konoha’s anbu)

Because Anbu are so vital to the village's operations, they cannot be arrested by the police without a warrant. ch222

Root

Root carried out missions that Danzō believed would benefit Konoha. Because of its core views as "the unseen ones who support the great tree of Konoha from the depths of the earth" ch 285

some of these missions were less respectable, such as eliminating individuals that were considered potential threats simply for their hatred for Konoha, despite not actually having done anything against the village. The organisation's top priority was its secrecy, and most of its missions were carried out in the dark of Konoha's authority. Root was officially disbanded after the Uchiha Clan Downfall due to Danzō spearheading the tragedy.ch284

 remained active as an underground organisation until Danzō's death. Despite Third's orders to disband the group, the members remained loyal to Danzō, his orders being the highest priority over even the Hokage's. Danzō's death, Sai suggested its members look to Kakashi for guidance since Kakashi, at the time, was slated to become Hokage.ch488

Root was strict and secretive group, the organisation had a cursed seal imprinted on the back of their tongues by Danzō when activated, would paralyse their entire body if they tried to speak anything about Danzō or the organisation, rendering them unable to speak or move. Sai noted that this was done in an effort to prevent an info leak should any of them be captured and interrogated by enemy forces.ch452 The seal disappeared after Danzō's death ch488

Danzō had also trained its members to lose their emotions by growing up as brothers from a young age, only to later be made to kill each other. ch303

Another specialty of the organisation was slow, long-term brainwashing. In the case of one of their members, Nonō Yakushi, she was brainwashed through a series of pictures starting with photographs of Kabuto one of her former wards at orphanage showing him growing up. Root slowly switched the person in the photographs entirely and then gave Nonō the order to kill the actual Kabuto.Resulting in Nonō not recognising Kabuto in their final moments. ch584

Extra:

 Kirigakure, there is a subdivision of Anbu known as hunter-nin: hunter-nin track down and kill missing-nin from Kiri, bringing the head as proof and disposing of the rest of the body so as to not leave behind any info for their enemies.  

Due to the village's high number of missing-nin

ch 15/16 (Three times were  we seen kiri Anbu is haku as a fake hunter nin Ao mizukage bodyguard. Then there’s the situation with Rin and Kakashi 3 tails incident.)

Freight Consolidation Services by Everfast Freight: The Key to Cost-Effective Shipping

In today’s fast-paced global market, businesses need shipping solutions that are both cost-effective and efficient. Everfast Freight is a leader in freight consolidation services in India, helping companies save on shipping costs without compromising on reliability and speed. By combining smaller shipments into a single, consolidated load, Everfast Freight makes it easy for businesses to streamline their supply chain and reduce logistics expenses.

What is Freight Consolidation? Freight consolidation is a logistics strategy where multiple smaller shipments are grouped into one larger shipment. This approach benefits businesses that may not need full container loads (FCL) but still require reliable shipping for smaller consignments. Everfast Freight specializes in freight consolidation services, allowing businesses to share space within a container and pay only for the space they need. This means that clients benefit from reduced shipping costs, faster deliveries, and optimized storage.

Benefits of Freight Consolidation Services by Everfast Freight Cost Savings One of the main reasons businesses choose freight consolidation is to reduce costs. Instead of paying for an entire container, clients only pay for the space their cargo occupies. Everfast Freight ensures that each shipment is carefully managed to maximize container usage, offering clients the most economical solution.

Increased Efficiency By consolidating multiple shipments into one, Everfast Freight reduces handling and transit times. This streamlined process allows goods to reach their destination faster, improving efficiency across the supply chain.

Reduced Risk of Damage Shipping smaller packages individually increases the risk of damage. With freight consolidation, goods are packed securely in fewer containers, minimizing handling and the chance of damage during transit.

Eco-Friendly Shipping Consolidated shipping reduces the number of containers in transit, leading to lower emissions. This eco-friendly approach not only benefits the environment but also aligns with the sustainability goals of many companies.

End-to-End Tracking Everfast Freight provides comprehensive tracking services for consolidated shipments, allowing clients to monitor their goods every step of the way. This visibility ensures that businesses stay informed and prepared for delivery, enhancing overall customer satisfaction.

I was feeling silly so I wrote an entire essay about my current interest in mock trial then realized not every school had it so here's a persuasive essay on why they should!!

    The Real-World Benefits of Mock Trial

Mock Trial would undoubtedly be an extracurricular activity that would benefit your school and its students. By participating in Mock Trial, students have the opportunity to develop a variety of skills including teamwork, analytical thinking, confidence in public speaking, and the ability to think on one's feet. This essay will address the benefits of incorporating at your school. These benefits include the skills addressed above, evidence from my past school of its success, and lastly, the fact that this club would appeal to many students.

Firstly, Mock Trial at your school would help students with both their individuality and teamwork. Mock Trial helps students practice public speaking in a rewarding way because when students “work in the courtroom” they can present their arguments. If they have carefully pieced together their arguments, then it all comes down to confidence. Public speaking is an important skill for most careers and in any role on a mock trial team, whether a witness or a lawyer, this skill is put to use. 

Analytical thinking is also practiced in and out of the courtroom as students look at the case from different angles, and eventually put that thinking into action as they write out scripts. As they use these different angles, they are also able to better see other people’s perspectives. This skill can translate into student relationships as well, as they learn to understand other people’s viewpoints more clearly. 

Mock Trial builds both individuality and teamwork. Students need to put their heads together, communicate, and trust each other as a full team to compete. The bond that forms between the student acting as a lawyer and the student acting as their witness especially shows this. 

As further evidence that Mock Trial would be beneficial to your school , I can also add my own personal account as well as support from the Illinois State Bar Association. The year I served at my school, we practiced roles for both the prosecution and defense.  I was the defendant of the case while we presented The Defense. When we were The Prosecution, I was the prosecutor in charge of the defendant's cross-examination. I can personally attest to the fact that Mock Trial changed me for the better. I became more confident in myself, I was able to communicate with others more effectively, and it brought me closer to my dream of pursuing a career in law enforcement or law. In the end, my team and I became a family fighting for justice, even if it was fictional. 

The connections made with others aren’t temporary and remain even after the conclusion of the case. I’ve heard other students express their gratitude towards the club and how much it helped,  and on a less serious note, the fun they had. There are also multiple supporting accounts from students from Illinois, and the Contra Costa Bar Association. These students have all attested, in one way or another, how Mock Trial has helped them. For example, in 2023, Imani Barnes, after her time in Mock Trial, applied for law school stating “I gained a higher level of comfort with public speaking which was (and still is) very difficult for me. I also developed better critical thinking skills when having to use evidence to tell a compelling story in a competition, and by modifying and improving the strength of our case as the competition progressed.” 

Though there is likely currently a Debate Club at your school and this could be seen as an overlap, I beg to differ. While the debate team offers some of the skills noted above,  Mock Trial differentiates itself by appealing to more students. For example, for those who participate in theater, playing your persona as a witness is quite similar to playing your character on the stage. It also appeals to students like myself who would like to pursue a career involved with law. It also has the benefit of arguing both sides. In Debate Club, you may have a counterclaim, but in Mock Trial, you are given the opportunity to serve as both the prosecution and defense for the same case. 

In conclusion, I believe Mock Trial would be a beneficial extracurricular activity at your school because it helps students both individually and with teamwork. There is evidence of its success and appeal to a variety of students.

Please ask one of your instructors or myself about mock trial if this interests you. Spread awareness and start your own clubs!!!

What is it about Jaune that makes you like him? /gen

i know a lot of what im about to say can be boiled down to "hes miles self-insert" but like. as a certified Miles-Hater thats so dumb to judge a writers fav character (i dont think jaune is even miles character) or the character they heavily base around their own experiences on the feelings you have for the writer. many MANY writers far better than miles luna have based characters on themselves-- which is what jaune is btw a self-insert/mary-sue is ENTIRELY different-- anyways

you see, something that made weiss and pyrrha (and somewhat blake) in vol 1-3 many peoples fav characters, including me, was that they had functional character arcs. pyrrhas was far more deep and interesting than weiss' (bc the writers were scared to actually tackling unlearning racism) but functionally: weiss started off as an uppity racist bitch that was entitled and self-important, and by the end of vol 3 she had not only learned to summon, but also did it in protection of a faunus-- regardless of the quality of writing, this was a perfectly acceptable story arc during vol1-3 era that made weiss a standout. pyrrha went from a sort of empty mentor shell character to somebody that the audience understood to struggle with her identity, her destiny, her talents and lack of agency, coupled with this idea that she might be forever changed should she take on the burden of her destiny... and then she kissed jaune and took on cinder solo (meaning that if she was rescued [meaning she escapes the stigma of being the unbeatable girl, thus escaping her destiny] or somehow won, she could return to jaune [thus gaining the joy she was always afraid she would never have] OR she would die [again, escaping her destiny]

you see, people LIKE character development and that is in woeful short supply in RWBY. but jaune is constantly changing, while other characters remain static for massive bouts of time (ren, weiss, yang) or repeat the same character arcs again and again (ruby, nora) and while hes changing, its always for the benefit of others

jaune starts off as a doofus cringelord that throws up on the ship to beacon. hes a liar, getting his hands on fake transcripts (ive always wanted to know how the hell he did that), hes a poor student (like everyone else tbf) and he struggles to fight. hes unprepared, and he struggles with leadership, like ruby! where ruby had to deal with internal team struggles (blake v weiss and weiss v ruby), jaune struggles with external factors (his own backstory and cardins bullying)

ive seen Certain Individuals say they hate jaune because hes mean to pyrrha when she offered to help him but like. isnt that the point of character arcs and development? jaune started off as thinking he had to shoulder the burden of what cardin was doing to him (which btw was physically bullying and mental exhaustion, he was doing the burden of five people and in the meantime was being physically harmed) as well as the guilt of his own backstory (failing to live up to a huntsman legacy [which GOD why havent they come back to this at all] and his lies.) and by the end of it, off the advice of ruby, he fights back to protect his team and DEVELOPS into someone that willingly and genuinely apologizes to pyrrha and asks if she would still be okay with training him. its genuinely good development for both of them!

jaune continues to change post pyrrha. he honors her by incorporating her armor into his own, carrying her silently alongside them, while also keeping up his training because he knows that the best way to honor pyrrha is to keep up the fight, to protect their friends, to make sure she didnt die in vain. hes ALWAYS supported ruby from the very beginning, following her, supporting his teammates

im not going to pretend jaunes flawless or faultless. especially in vol 4-6 where a LOOOOOOOT of writing flaws and character issues crop up for me, in all characters including jaune. i hate the way they all blame Oz/Oscar, i hate his stupid plan to steal an atlas airship (cordovin literally offered to escort weiss just have her claim oscar as a servant boy and have qrow go along as her pet bird, have her go to atlas with oscar and qrow with the lamp and then ironwood would have given cordo orders to have everyone else shipped out GOD), i hate the way they all just SIT AROUND at haven, i hate the way they all act like qrow turning into a bird is some fucked up thing, yadda yadda yadda. the fight at haven is bad and ugly and he (like everyone) fights like an absolute ding dong but OUGH his semblance...

listen one thing about me? i love paladins. love healers. im a support main, i play clerics and bards, i LOVE paladins. theres something really great to me that his aura was set up from the very beginning as something he had a lot of and now his semblance is literally giving that away to his friends, literally giving his SOUL to others to heal and boost and protect. that's genuinely so beautiful to me. its not only a wonderful semblance that has really good utility and synergy (regardless that he only seems to use it with ren) but its wonderful that it heals, because thats the first thing he found out aura can actually do; pyrrha unlocked his aura to HEAL him. and he struggled for so long with the fact that he couldnt help pyrrha because he didnt know how but now? his literal super power is to help others. (i mean. not that the writers use it to great effect but still. the potential is there)

and then the atlas arc starts and man this is some of my favorite jaune era because a lot of what i like is background details! i ADORE his friendship with marrow, i truly wish more characters got to make friends with the characters in atlas (give me blake/neon NOW!!!!!!!!! give me weiss/flynt NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! double date!!!!!!!!) guard dogs is literally one of my top five ships (i also adore marrow to death and back so its a no brainer) i like that he actually steps up to do huntsmanning work that isnt glorious or battling, even if at first hes a little disappointed and then!!! it literally comes back around in the finale episodes!!!! it showed that even seemingly silly tasks like escorting kindergarteners to school and back can be utilized in the right situation, bc hunting in atlas isnt just about fighting monsters, its about taking care of the people, from evacuation procedures to literally escorting children. i loved it and it felt really satisfying to watch (even if it did make me judge literally everyone else like what now suddenly you dont care about the civilians in mantle?)

and also, this entire time, its been wonderful to see jaune slowly build up his arsenal and his fighting skills. ill admit, some of my fondness from jaune comes from my own headcanons regarding his legacy and such but tbh the fact that only some of my enjoyment comes from my headcanons and not literally all my enjoyment (like most characters) is an improvement. but also, its just ingrained in my media to want to root for the underdog, the clumsy bad fighter that gets cooler and cooler, thats the appeal of the literal Heroes Journey (sora, noctis, link, jaune; all swordfighters, all either knight/royalty coded, all went on the heroes journey, all some of my favorite characters... coincidence? i think not!)

im not really going to speak on vol9 too much because its a lot and its unfinished rn and i dont know how this series arc is going to end for him so i cant make an informed sort of conclusion but i think hes very in character as a naturally continuation of his character before the time in the EA that was put through the Horrors for a couple dozen years. it makes my heart Ache

anyways this was already a lot. basically, i like jaune because he feels like a genuine paladin and feels like what a huntsman should be like. one of my biggest complaint that is specific to him and not a series wide issue with writing is i wish his designs were better? im loving the rusted knight look with the full armor and the longer hair and i hope that he keeps the ponytail (if he survived vol9). hes a genuinely good friend who ive never questioned whether he actually would be a good huntsman (as ive questioned with literally everyone else of the main cast except ruby) or if he even wants to be there at all! he has his own motivations to be in this fight beyond just following ruby and he actively gets better throughout the show (unlike rwby, who all started off goated and then have had to be nerfed through the show). i think he had a lot of potential that was wasted but i think hes genuinely one of the better characters we've gotten as a main staple of the show and hes been there since the beginning!

i hope this answered your question! i could literally go on for hours (it took me an hour to respond to this alone) so if you have specific scenarios you want me to break down i can totally gush about jaune, or my headcanons (for example i have a hc that he has a drag persona named Matre Domme, a play on matyrdom (bc joan of arc) as well as being french for Master Domme bc of course jaunes experience with feminity and what he would explore through drag is rooted in strong dominate women)

REQUEST. : 🧁-5’8” cis girl, blonde hair, blue eyes, from the middle of nowhere. I’m a three sport athlete(track, Basketball, Volleyball), but also love reading and puzzles. I’m not much of a morning person, animals, am mostly social with those I know well, when I have to energy to give. I love dirt roads, supporting teammates, friends, other contact sports(football, soccer), and blaring music, but also rain and mellow nights at home. I riden horses(western style), roped and worked cattle all my life. I tend to lean toward chaotic, but organization P.S- even though I’ve only just found your account, I love your writing, and you seem like an amazing person ⏤ @cychurro

that’s so sweet of you to say! thank you for enjoying my writing and for thinking highly of me, i’ll continue to do my best and honour your words well ٩( ^ᴗ^ )۶

and from what you’ve described to me, i ship you with James Potter! for the sake of this scenario, you’re in gryffindor ;) 

i. since you’re quite athletic, you naturally make it onto the quidditch team but since you’re not an early morning person, you get to quidditch practice just in time (nearly almost late) and grumpy, which rubs james the wrong way, especially because he’s all about team spirit and putting your best foot forward for the time. seeing your behaviour was not, in his eyes, you putting your best foot forward for the team. nevertheless, he couldn’t deny that you were a good player, although, this made his tongue charper with you than with any other individual so the two of you quickly grew a rivalry on the pitch. this rivalry, somewhat, benefitted the team however, as you’d both compete with each other to score the most goals without abdicating the team’s overall performance in matches, especially official ones. 

ii. eventually, james became captain and that was the start of torture for you. you had competed against him for the position but ultimately, lost. james made for a good captain, however, it just didn’t help that he was extra hard on you for your usual slowness in the morning. you’ve heard some of your teammates vouch for your dislike for early mornings but james is strict on the schedule, eager to play all the matches well and win the end of year cup. he knows and can see your potential so it was infuriating to him that you would let such potential go to waste. after some time, however, he slowly began admitting to himself that he had grown fond of your grumpy morning attitude and sleepy appearance, it’s quite an adorable look on you…

iii. when its the weekend, you’ve become quite famous for blasting music in your dorm room for most parts of the day when you didn’t have the energy to interact with other people but did have the energy to listen to all of your favourite songs on repeat. sometimes, james, as head boy, has had to ask you to turn down the music but, for the most part, many of the gryffindor students enjoyed your music in the background and have grown a liking to most of your songs. 

iv. on one particular official match against ravenclaw, you managed to get a nasty hit by a bludger and needed to be tended in the hospital wing. james wanted to take you there himself but you pushed him to carry the team to victory and have someone else sub in for you. it took some convincing but james finally relented, “I promise we’ll win this for you, okay?” james promised with determined eyes and a fixed stare on you. you’d be lying if you said it didn’t make your heart flutter. “i’ll be cheering for you captain,” you say good naturedly before being escorted away. needless to say, gryffindor won against ravenclaw by a landslide that day and you couldn’t be prouder. when the gryffindor after party celebration was being held in the common room, james was nowhere to be found; he was at your bedside the entire time. 

v. gradually, you and james started talking outside of quidditch and you introduce him to all the muggle sports you enjoy and love. you explain the rules to him and smile at the fascination the swells in his eyes. so it was only natural that you invite james over for the summer to indulge in all your favourite sports, whether it’s by playing it together or watching games at a stadium. You’ve even worked him through a day’s work on the farm, herding cattle and getting used to the horses so that he could go horse riding with you. As a quidditch player, he was a natural and he quickly grew to love horse riding on the dirt paths around the farm land with you. it was a very eventful summer. one that started with lots of learning, was filled with adventures and fond memories before ending in a sweet, spontaneous kiss under the cool evening summer sun, setting behind the horizon. 

vi. back in school again, you and james continue the routine of back and forth in the early morning chill of quidditch practice but there has been a noticeable shift in the tone of your comebacks. the team thought you two were acting odd but the usual light bickering escalated into a kiss that wasn’t expected and their suspicions were immediately confirmed. “It’s about time!” one teammate calls out as the others whistle with amused brows. “Sod off before I give you extra laps!” james shouts back, earning a belly of laughter before it was back on the pitch for drills and practising manoeuvres. 

vii. honourable mention, i also, lowkey ship you with remus lupin. it’s your shared love for reading and puzzles that bring you together first before remus grows a love for the outdoors and several sports under your influence. you also introduce him to horse-back riding and he adores it. he adores it even more when you two aren’t playfully racing around and merely taking the horses for a walk in the wilderness with a picnic packed away and books for you two to read together on a picnic in the forest where there’s a sunny spot.

1. The Role of Fraud Investigations in Claims Management 🔍🛡️

Claims management involves the entire process of handling a claim from the moment it’s filed until it’s resolved. While insurers aim to pay valid claims promptly, they also need to protect themselves from fraudulent claims that could undermine their business. Fraud investigations play a key role in identifying suspicious claims and ensuring that legitimate claims are processed efficiently. 📈💼

By implementing robust fraud detection systems, insurance companies can differentiate between genuine claims and fraudulent ones, reducing the overall cost of claims and improving their operational efficiency. 🔐💰

2. Utilizing Advanced Technology for Fraud Detection 🖥️🤖

With the rise of digital technology, insurance companies now have access to sophisticated tools that can automate and improve fraud detection. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms can analyze vast amounts of data to identify patterns and detect anomalies in claims. For example, if a claim involves unusually high medical expenses or a repeated pattern of similar incidents, the system can flag it for further investigation. 🤖📊

AI tools can also continuously learn and adapt, becoming more effective at detecting fraudulent behavior over time. By integrating these tools into the claims management process, insurance companies can streamline their operations while minimizing the risks posed by fraudulent claims. You can explore https://truepeoplecheck.com to hire professionals.

🔄📈

3. Automating Claims Processing with Fraud Detection ⚙️📑

Automating claims processing not only speeds up the entire system but also helps reduce human error and biases in decision-making. When fraud detection systems are integrated into automated claims processing, suspicious claims can be flagged immediately, allowing investigators to quickly assess and take action.

For example, if an individual files a claim for an accident that occurred in a different city, the system can detect this inconsistency and alert the claims team for further review. Automation can also assist in gathering supporting evidence, such as medical records, police reports, and witness statements, which can then be reviewed for potential fraud. ⏱️🔍

4. Combining Human Expertise with Technology 🤝🧠

Fraud investigators use their experience and intuition to evaluate suspicious claims that may not be immediately flagged by automated systems. Combining AI-powered fraud detection with human oversight creates a more balanced and effective approach. 🧑‍💼💡

For example, an investigator might look deeper into inconsistencies in a claimant’s story or review surveillance footage that could provide further insight. Human expertise ensures that fraud investigations are thorough and nuanced, offering an added layer of scrutiny to the claims process. 🔎🧑‍⚖️

5. Improved Customer Experience 🌟👥

Integrating fraud detection into claims management not only helps prevent losses but can also improve the overall customer experience. When fraud is detected early, the resolution process is faster and smoother, benefiting both insurers and honest policyholders.

Additionally, transparent and fair claims handling builds trust with customers. Insurance companies that take steps to prevent fraud demonstrate a commitment to protecting policyholders and maintaining the integrity of the system. This can lead to higher customer satisfaction and retention rates.Hop over this site to know more about the insurance fraud. 🙌🤝

6. Collaboration and Data Sharing 📚🤝

Collaboration between insurers, investigators, and law enforcement is essential in tackling large-scale or complex fraud schemes. Data sharing allows companies to compare claims across different providers, helping to identify patterns of fraud. For instance, if a fraudster attempts to file multiple claims across several insurance companies, cross-referencing these claims can expose the fraudulent activity. 🔄📂

By sharing information and resources, insurers can enhance the effectiveness of fraud investigations and reduce the impact of fraudulent claims on the industry as a whole. 🚔📊

7. Conclusion: Strengthening Claims Management 🌟🔒

Incorporating fraud investigation techniques into claims management is essential for improving the efficiency, accuracy, and fairness of the insurance process. By utilizing technology, automating processes, and combining human expertise, insurers can identify fraudulent claims early and prevent financial losses.

Ultimately, integrating fraud detection into claims management helps create a more secure and reliable insurance system, benefiting both policyholders and providers.
