About your one headcanon post regarding Ectonurites: I remember having this kind of silly idea once that the High Ecto-Lord of Anur-Transyl is also in charge of religious affairs in addition to general ruling (basically being their version of the pope in a sense) which is why Zs’Skayr dons his skin like a cloak in Omniverse, with traditional Ectonurite religious doctrine teaching that the sun deity is basically their equivalent of the Devil who will immediately “kill” them on sight and thus they need to either hide or disguise themselves from them (whether through staying indoors, their sun-skin, parasols, or possession of bodies either real or artificial) and Zs’Skayr attempting to use this as a way to get his subjects on board with his plans, claiming he was finally “vanquishing” the sun’s evil and “exterminating”/“purifying” its “demons” (aka species that need the sun to live)

Ooo a Theocracy, or at the minimum a theocratic absolute elective monarchy if it’s less ‘God has appointed thee to govern its land’ and more ‘High Ecto-Lord = Priest-King’ between Anur Phaetos and the wider Anur System (maybe a former and latter respectively?), maybe even something a little less… like an oligarchy equivalent where the priesthood has significant influence in Phaetan politics even if they themselves aren’t ruling under one religion. Either way it’s really really interesting for worldbuilding implications, especially since if the sun (or ultraviolet radiation) which could be considered demonic can actually ‘smite’ or I suppose ‘collect’ innocent souls. Very easy for early ectonurite civilisations and eons of evolutionary history to view that as ‘evidence’ of the existence of divinity even if infernal in nature, at least until science gets developed and atheist and agnostic circles have concrete reasons to disagree-

Heh, I can imagine the cultural differences between [insert name for religion a ‘High Ecto-Lord’ is a part of] and atheist ectonurites, where of course everyone would do their part to protect themselves from the sun (because it is literally an active threat, even in funerals because it puts unnecessary risk on the cyst stage), but the differences come in the home or on planets with little to no UV rays. Like religious folk would retain their cloak or hell, there’s the equivalent to *looks at religions i vaguely know enough to compare* nuns where ectonurites would be in constant possession of sunsuits, whereas atheists would shed their skin and close their parasols and kinda let the body breathe so to speak (functionally the sun skin doesn’t restrict anything since it’s a natural biological process - even if not everyone has the same potentially mindless experience with it - but some folk like the permanence of styling their underbody rather than the rather fragile temporary skin they can damage with wear and tear).

Heh, if Zs’Skayr has a religious motivation to block the sun on Earth, he and the rest of his potentially extremist kin would really inherently hate Pyros and pyronites. If Earth is ‘hell-touched’ with its sun corrupted life, Pyros would be the text-book definition of a hellscape and consequently their people would be the closest things to real life hellspawn, which isn’t exactly um… all that great now is it? Hell, depending on how you headcanon the Anur System as well as if you extrapolate what has in some way been said about it’s planets, you might even say the most extreme may have problems with Anur Khufos and thep khufan, who though culturally also remain in the dark, they come from a planet with so much sun it’s surface is largely one of dry desert heat!

Of course as High Ecto-Lord - one officially recognised in the Anur Transyl polity - Zs’Skayr is hardly in the position to agree with those kinds of folk, especially since he may not be the sole political power on this united Anurian community. But, when does that stop political figures anyway, particularly the religious types :P

Is Hilux Underbody Protection Worth the Investment? Check Reasons!

Installing Hilux underbody protection bash plates and composite battery trays is one of the most crucial safety precautions for the vehicle, the driver, and any passengers when off-roading. To add more safety elements to cars, skilled manufacturers can create various-shaped battery closers and bash plates.

In addition, a lot of customers request that a dual battery tray Hilux be installed to preserve battery safety and prevent unanticipated collisions when driving on uneven terrain.

To make the contents more accessible, drivers can also install safety freeze trays, which are a practical way to draw out the refrigerator and slide it along sliding tracks. Professional manufacturers use unique designs for refrigerator slides, battery trays, and bash plates that prevent movement and ensure driver safety.

Extensional Safety Accessories in Cars have the Following Benefits:

It makes sense to use under-body protection plates to guarantee the safety of both drivers and vehicles. It guarantees consistent performance and safeguards old automobiles' chassis.

Preserving the chassis increases the longevity and durability of automobiles. Reputable producers create composite skid plates and protection plates from lightweight, flexible materials like aluminium alloy, stainless steel, and others.

Battery enclosures prevent rumbling, lessen vibration and noise, and give passengers a more opulent driving experience. The safety enclosures maintain a steady operating temperature for the battery by preventing heat transfer.

All cars must have chassis protection to prevent corrosion and dents on the underbody plates. External protection plates and trays shield cars from the weather, shield exposed underplates from harm, and give drivers and owners a strong resistance against the elements.

To install safety trays and bash plates, along with other automotive components like rock sliders, stump guards, engines, gearboxes, suspension, differentials, and fuel tank protective plates, car owners should look for a reputable manufacturer.

Find an established supplier by conducting in-depth market research on their services, pricing, customer support, connection accountability, and product quality.

To learn more about the calibre of goods and services they offer, it is essential to see if they have received government certification and to read reviews left by previous clients.

Lastly, get in touch with a reputable manufacturer to have their safety gear installed at a fair price and keep your car safe.

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Performing an Underbody Car Wash

There are a few common mistakes to avoid when performing an underbody car wash. First, do not use a pressure washer on the undercarriage. The high-pressure water can damage delicate components and cause rusting. Second, avoid using harsh detergents or chemicals. These can also damage the undercarriage and lead to rusting. Third, be sure to rinse the undercarriage thoroughly after washing. Any soap residue left on the surface can attract dirt and grime, leading to a less effective wash. Be sure to dry the undercarriage completely after rinsing to prevent water spots and corrosion.

Drift to Impress

Pairing: Dean x car obsessed fem!reader

Summary: You knew your ways around cars and handled your own one quite skillfully. Dean didn’t know until you pulled a move on him on the highway in the night.

Note: I rewatched Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift and got inspired by this clip. And oh my, what power move that would be on Dean . <3

You hadn’t known the Winchester brothers for long. All you knew about them was that they hunted the supernatural and that your city was heavily affected.

They had originally come into your garage after Baby got banged up and the engine started struggling. You were a mechanic - and a quite skilled one.

Cars were your passion and your lust; you adored the smell of rubber and oil, you admired the speed and power, and you loved the sound of a humming engine. All that made your heart jump. Receiving new car parts spiked your joy.

While you fixed their car, you found yourself in the company of these two gentlemen. One more stern than the other, and one more flirtatious than the other. But when you heard them talking about the missing people in your city, you grew alert. A friend of yours had vanished a few days ago, and maybe they could help you find them.

That was the start of your journey together, which had only been going on for a week. You were intrigued by their work as you dived deeper, and you found joy in helping them. You believed their theories, even if they sounded unimaginable. Though those were the only clues available; the only way of finding lost people.

And one Winchester man, in particular, charmed you in a way no one else did. He flirted with you endlessly, but you weren’t about to let him be the only cocky one on Earth.

This morning, Sam and Dean left the motel room quite early. You, on the other hand, stayed in town, researching new cases in the newsletters. As the hours passed, you lost yourself in the scattered papers and the mass of newsletters. So much text but no viable information for the case. Before you knew it, the sky turned dark, and the weather cooled.

Your eyes scanned the ink on the white paper when suddenly, you found a clue. A clue that might save lives… including your friend’s. You were quick to dial Sam on your cellphone.

“Yeah, what’s up?” Sam’s rough voice rang through your phone. He sounded distressed, probably because they hadn’t gotten closer to the damn case.

“I found something. Where are you guys at?” You said while searching your car keys in your pockets. Hell, where were they?

Dean replied, “Wait, can’t you just tell us?”

“Nah, that’d be too easy,” your cocky voice slipped out. “I don’t know if this is really something. Maybe you guys should overlook it before I give you false hope. I’m not that deep into the game.”

Sam told you their direction and read out the nearest road sign.

“We’ll drive a little slower. There’s no one out here anyway,” Sam explained before you ended the call.

In a matter of seconds, you were on the road, your engine roaring deeply, and the numbers on your dashboard climbing fast. You loved to drive this sleek, bright car with the underbody lighting, the chrome rims, and the big wing on the back. The Winchesters hadn’t seen you drive this beast yet because you usually arrived everywhere on foot and the motel wasn’t far from your apartment.

The distant hum of the engine and the occasional screech of tires set the backdrop for a night filled with adrenaline. After all, you needed to arrive quickly.

You sat behind the wheel of your midnight-black Nissan 240sx, feeling the rhythmic pulse of its engine, ready to make an impression.

You were more than ready to surprise Dean, to rob him of that cocky smile and leave him speechless.

Then you spotted them. Two men in an Impala - Baby - driving slowly yet cautiously. That’s when you decided to make your move, a grin tugging at your lips as the idea took hold. You’d done this a hundred times, pulling this move on your brothers or even your boss, but never on a man you found madly attractive.

“What’s that flashy car?” Dean’s eyebrow furrowed when he spotted the flashy lights in the rearview mirror.

Your hand gripped the steering wheel as your eyes locked onto your target. You eased the car forward, smooth and under control, catching their attention without saying a word. The boys’ eyes turned toward you, curious, just as you hit the throttle and flicked the wheel.

The Nissan spun sideways, its tires letting out a sharp screech as the back end swung around. The front bumper skimmed within inches of their car, the precision perfect, the control undeniable. The car’s tires sprayed a fine mist of water, as you effortlessly completed a flawless drift around their vehicle.

“Is that…?!” Sam asked, surprised, clearly in shock that you’d do something so reckless.

Dean was speechless, just as you’d anticipated. He’d never encountered a woman taking such a risk just to impress him. Yet, there you were, a wide grin on your lips.

Your car slid to a halt beside them, its engine purring confidently, as if it knew it had just stolen the show. Hell yeah, you did.

The window rolled down, and you leaned out slightly, your gaze sharp and playful. “Hope I didn’t startle you,” you said, your voice dripping with charm.

Dean smirked, leaning slightly forward, his flirtatious voice matching yours. “That was bold,” he replied, his tone teasing. “But can you do it twice?”

Your grin widened as you revved the engine, the sound echoing through the night. “Stick around,” you said. “I’ve got plenty more where that came from.”

You handed the clues and sheets of paper through the car window, for Dean to give to Sam.

Sam was grateful for having something to distract him from the tension that hung between you two. Though, attention swiftly shifted.

“You got it,” Sam said enthusiastically. “Let us check that out.”

“Say no more.”

With that, you shifted gears, the car launching forward with a burst of speed, leaving the faint scent of burnt rubber. The look on Dean’s face was worth all the rubber your expensive tires lost, and Dean’s heart raced just as fast as your car did.

“Damn…”
