2023.03.29 12:19 Plus_Builder_5649 Sin/Excommunication

So I’m hard nosed and devout when it come the subject of Theology, Doctrine, Liturgy. I was raised very fundamentalist, but proudly converted over to an extremely conservative LCMS parish. My question pertains to the president recently releasing a newsletter stating that being against interracial marriage is grounds for excommunication. I find this to be absolutely appalling that the synod would try to get so deeply intwined in folks personal beliefs. My understanding is interracial marriage is a sin due to the scripture telling Believers that we aren’t to do anything that would cause a persons faith to waver in any way. And I don’t know if y’all noticed but interracial marriage does exactly that. The woman is shunned by her own skin just as the man will be, as well as the children will always be looked at sideways cause of mixed parents or children of single parents where the child is a byproduct of mixed breeding. This is an honest question. I’m not racist, I’m not against folks of color. I just still feel strongly that it is a sin to mix breed. And want to know how the synod can justify excommunication for not agreeing or being for interracial marriage or how interracial marriage is not sin for that matter?

2023.03.29 12:08 PopeSluggies USA (California) - Looking to build a new gaming PC to run games at 1600P at 60fps smoothly as possible.

What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.
AAA games and emulation (up to PS3).
What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?
$1000 USD
When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.
Within the next quarter or so, so within the next five weeks.
What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (ToweOS/monitokeyboard/mouse/etc)
Nothing, have a new monitor, mousepad, mouse, keyboard already.
Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?
USA/California, no access to Microcenter locally :(
If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.
Mouse, Keyboard, Speakers, Mic, Monitor.
Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?
No plans on overclocking.
Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)
SSD, I would love to have some USB-C ports on it but if that's farfetched I'm willing to give it up. I will probably be buying a very large HDD from serverpartdeals.
What type of network connectivity do you need? (Wired and/or WiFi) If WiFi is needed and you would like to find the fastest match for your wireless router, please list any specifics.
No Wifi/Bluetooth is needed, just ethernet.
Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-towefull-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?
I have no preferences on size as I have my own nice little space on my own.
Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?
I will not be needing a copy included.

2023.03.29 12:07 SociallyUnder_a_Rock Update: I finished my nether-themed ship

Update: I finished my nether-themed ship
About 2 months ago, I made a post here asking for help with the color scheme of my ship. Well, I chose a scheme and finally finished building it in my survival world, and I thought I should share the design and the details I added. So... here it is:
Final product & the original rough draft
Finished Product
Original Rough Draft
Clearer view of final design in Creative world

Detail Choices:
Hidden Glow-lichen to prevent mob spawns on sail while keeping low light-level
Deck of ship closer up. Despite the low light-level of soul lanterns, strategic placement was enough to mob-proof the deck while maintaining as little glow possible for the ship (helps make it look better at night)
Protruding Bulbous bow / Navel Ram, inspired by ancient Greek warships. It helps to add length to the ship and give it a more slender look, which the original rough draft really needed
Rudder. It helps to add length to the ship and give it a more slender look, which the original rough draft really needed
Horizontal color strips. Like strip-patterned suits, long horizontal strips of color gives the illusion of the ship being longer than it actually is.
Inside of the ship: back. To make it seem like the ship is actually transporting goods, nether-themed blocks are strewn about in groups, while colored shulker boxes act as actual storage for the blocks.
Inside of the ship: front. To make it seem like the ship is actually transporting goods, nether-themed blocks are strewn about in groups, while colored shulker boxes act as actual storage for the blocks.

2023.03.29 12:00 callmeleeloo Help needed determining season & type

Help needed determining season & type
Hi everyone!
Reposting to include more pictures with different hair, makeup & clothes :)
Currently, I mostly wear black, with some white and blush/powder pink. While I love black, I don't think it looks that great on me, but I wear it mostly as I have two very small kids and I don't have the mental capacity to deal with color coordinating my outfits (and also, stains!) :D
Nevertheless, I'd like to start adding colors back into my wardrobe, and here is where I have a problem: I can't figure out my color season. While I'm pretty sure I’m not a summer type, I can’t figure out whether I’m autumn or winter, dark or bright, or something else.
While I wore more colorful outfits, the colors I usually wore were white, denim and navy, baby blue, blush pink, brown (camel & cognac), beige, dark teal, etc. Most of these colors were on the warmer side, except the blues. I usually got compliments on my outfits, so I think they looked pretty ok on me. I also look good in red and even some yellow and olive (when I'm tanned), and floral patterns.
As for makeup, I tend to wear natural colors, but they are all usually warmer and look better than cooler colors imo (for example, a brown or warm pink lipstick looks better than red or cool pink). My hair is naturally dark brown, and has a lot of red pigment in it. My eyes are also dark brown, but they seem a bit warmer, I think. When it comes to jewelry, I mostly wear silver, but I think rose gold looked best on me.
I tried to do the metals and veins test, and I’m still unsure, so I’m posting the pics here in hopes someone can help me figure out what my colors are. I took the pictures outside, with no direct sunshine and no editing. I included some edited pics as well, as I have various hair colors and outfits there so they could better showcase what some other colors look like on me. Thanks <3

Different metals (rose gold, silver, yellow gold)

Both images taken in natural light, left has makeup on and is on a sunny day, the right is without makeup and cloudy day.

Various images with different hair colors and clothes. These are all edited, I don't have the raw images unfortunately.

2023.03.29 11:54 black-knight-13 Master of the Long Bow: Yamamoto Asaya

Name: Yamamoto Asaya
Age: 16
Appearance: Short, sandy blonde hair, dark green eyes, lean frame, pale skin, pupils shaped like crosshairs.
Clothing: Black cargo pants, short-sleeved green shirt, black boots, grey vest, black fingerless gloves, beaded necklace around his neck with an arrowhead charm, grey sunglasses.
Personality: Serious, calm, level-headed, easy-going, dedicated, charming when he speaks, kind, and family-oriented.
Quirk: Deadshot. Asaya's Quirk gives him an incredible range of vision. The crosshairs in his pupils are a mutation that has been passed down in his family for generations. Asaya has traditional sight but added effects such as night vision, thermal vision, micro-vision, Interscope, and even X-ray. These different types of vision give him a range of advantages in the field and his sense of vision is so great that he can even detect the movements of his opponents by analyzing their body motions such as footsteps, muscle coiling, hand gestures, and even eye movements.
Quirk Drawbacks: Since his Quirk is entirely dependent on his vision, Asaya is weak against any kind of bright light. If he comes in contact with anything that could potentially disrupt his vision then he will be at a major disadvantage in the field. Plus, his Quirk allows him to detect minute movements in his opponents if they can stay out of his line of sight or finds some way to distract him then he could get weaker.
Quirk Supermoves: (Asaya doesn't have any physical super moves due to the way his Quirk operates so he uses different Trick Arrows to aid him in battle.)
Sonic Arrow: Unleashes an ear-piercing sonic echo upon impact or creates a confusing echo of a voice or sound Asaya has heard before.
Incendiary Arrow: Burns its target upon impact.
Flashbang Arrow: A flashbang grenade in the form of an arrow.
Shock Arrow: An electrifying arrow that shocks its target upon impact.
Zip-tie Arrow: Unleashes a set of zip-tie handcuffs that can be used to retrain a target.
Grappling Hook Arrow: An arrow that shoots a line to a target that can be used to reach higher areas by using swinging lines and zip lines.
Echo Arrow: An arrow that can either record voices or listen in on conversations.
Freeze Arrow: Unleashes super fast freezing liquid nitrogen that freezes a target in place.
Knockout Gas Arrow: Unleashes a gas that renders all who inhale it unconscious.
Hero Name: The Archer Hero: Justice Arrow
Hero Costume: Black and red cargo pants, long-sleeved black shirt, crimson hooded vest, black and red gauntlets with black fingerless gloves, and black boots. Black-trimmed red armor covers his shins and knees, armor padding covers the backs of his hands, and curved armor padding covers his shoulders. On his thighs, he carries a set of Eskrima sticks made especially for Asaya, his belt carries kunai knives and shuriken, and on his back, he carries a quiver of arrows each one designed for a different purpose. He also carries a specially made collapsable, compound bow which is his primary weapon. Over his eyes, he wears a specially made pair of goggles that increase his range of vision even more than normal along with keeping his eyes protected.
Background: Asaya grew up as the only son of a famous Kyudo Dojo. His family had been archers ever since the Warring States Era and had continued the tradition even in the modern days of Quirks and Heroes. As the only son, Asaya was tasked with continuing the tradition and began training since he was old enough to pick up a bow. Most children would have found this taxing and boring but Asaya found it rather enjoyable. The way he felt totally at peace when he drew his bow and notched his arrows, made him feel whole. As Asaya grew, he planned to continue on with his family dojo until the day his elder sister became sick.
On the eve when his sister was supposed to meet her future husband, she was caught in the crossfire of a villain attack. One that could use poison gas to his advantage. When Asaya heard of this he immediately left the dojo to help her but a moment too late and his sister inhaled a severe amount of poison gas and nearly lost her life if Asaya hadn't taken her to a hospital. His sister survived but the poison affected her body and she has been confined to a wheelchair for the rest of her life. Seeing his beloved sister in such a state and feeling the bitterness of not being able to help her during a dangerous time angered Asaya immensely. He chooses to set aside his role of being the dojo's successor and turns his attention to being a hero. So that no one ever feels the pain of seeing someone they love harmed by the cruelty of villainy.

2023.03.29 11:51 Medstaruae Are You Looking For The Best Piles Treatment Centre In Dubai

We are one of the leading Piles Treatment In Dubai. Specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of all forms of piles, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, fistulas, and abscesses. We use the latest technologies and techniques to provide our patients with effective, safe, and minimally invasive treatments. Our goal is to provide our patients with the best possible care and help them regain their quality of life. Our team of experienced and highly trained professionals offers personalized care and treatment plans tailored to the individual needs of each patient. We strive to make sure that our patients receive the best possible care and treatment in a comfortable, compassionate, and professional environment.
Piles treatment in Dubai
Surprisingly, piles frequently get better or go away on their own without any kind of treatment. The finest gastroenterologist in Dubai claims that there are, however, therapies that can help greatly in lowering the pain and discomfort that many people experience when they have this illness.
Lifestyle changes
Your treatment plan will include recommendations for the lifestyle adjustments listed below:
Diet: One of the causes of piles is straining while you are going to the bathroom. Constipation may cause your bowel motions to travel straight through your rectal region. By adding more fiber-rich foods to your diet, you can improve your bowel movements and make it easier and more comfortable for you to pass stools. Consume fruits, vegetables, whole-wheat products, and cereals made with whole grains. You'll also be encouraged to drink more water every day and cut back on, or better yet, stop using, any caffeine-containing goods.
Bodyweight: Losing additional weight can also lessen the severity, pain, and other side effects of the illnesses. Consequently, it is highly advised to exercise.
Medications
Numerous medications are now available to help you manage the pain brought on by piles.
Prescription and over-the-counter drugs: These consist of analgesics, lotions, pads, and ointments. The redness and swelling around the anus are greatly helped by them. Remember that over-the-counter medications only help you manage your symptoms. They do not provide the best treatment for piles. It is advised not to take them for longer than 7 days continuously, as this may result in increased skin thinning and irritation of the affected area. Consult your doctor before taking more than one drug at once, unless specifically instructed to do so.
Corticosteroids: They may aid in easing pain and inflammation.
Laxatives: The doctor might provide laxatives if the patient also has constipation. Laxatives ease the process of emptying feces and relieve pressure on the lower colon.
Operative choices
One in ten people with piles requires surgery, according to reports. When treating piles in Dubai, the following procedures could be used:
Banding: The pile's blood supply is shut off by wrapping an elastic band around its base. In a few days, the hemorrhoid gradually falls out.
Sclerotherapy: The hemorrhage is reduced by an injection of medication. This causes hemorrhoids to gradually shrivel up. For grade II and III hemorrhoids, sclerotherapy is effective and a good alternative to banding.
Coagulation infrared: This involves burning the hemorrhoidal tissue using a gadget. It is employed to treat grades I and II hemorrhoids and is also known as infrared light coagulation.
Hemorrhoidectomy: A spinal anesthetic, a general anesthetic, or a mix of local anesthetic and sedation may be used to remove the extra tissue that is causing the bleeding during surgery. The most efficient surgical method for entirely eliminating piles is hemorrhoidectomy; however, it carries some risks, including UTI and difficulty passing feces.
Staple hemorrhoids: The hemorrhoidal tissue's blood flow is interrupted or blocked. Rectal prolapse, in which a portion of the rectum pushes out of the anus, and hemorrhoid recurrence are two possible adverse effects of this treatment, even though it often causes less discomfort than a hemorrhoidectomy.
We are proud to offer the Piles Doctor In Dubai and provide comprehensive treatments for all types of piles, from the mildest to the most severe cases. Our team of dedicated professionals is committed to providing patients with the highest quality of care and the best possible outcomes. Our treatments are tailored to each individual patient, and we use the latest technology and techniques to ensure the best possible results. We have a range of treatments available, from lifestyle changes and medication to minimally invasive and surgical treatments. We are committed to providing the highest quality of care and the best possible outcomes for all of our patients.

How do I solo FX in Execute window? Plus a few more questions [New to MagicQ and Chamsys]

https://preview.redd.it/iahgl9j5fnqa1.png?width=3048&format=png&auto=webp&s=9fc2ae7965239eec8b48414ee296022b12d419d6
Hello! Sorry for the long post... I'm not a super experienced lighting engineer or anything. I'm actually a DJ whos goal has been to program my own show from start to finish. I setup unreal engine to be my visualizer and have everything connected and now I'm really diving into setting up my showfile and I have a few questions. I come from MA2onPC and have used it off and on but I'm in no way experienced. My goal is to busk everything in the exec window so I can select my effects and then put them on a cue stack for doing timecode so here are my questions.

  1. How do I get my FX position movements to not stack on top of each other for example I have a few circle movements and I also have some only pans and only tilts. When I select one of the Tilts or Pans my circle movements don't stop being triggered. I'd like them to be a solo essentially select button so I just choose the movement like you would selecting a color.
  2. I'm diving into trying to timecode this whole thing out so I can DJ and was wondering if it's at all possible once I have all my songs on cuestacks if by having each songs timecode starting on a different hour it can all be automated and automatically trigger those timecode sequences. Example (Song A - 1:00:00:00, Song B 2:00:00:00, Song C 3:00:00:00)
  3. Mixed with the first question is it possible to not have all of my position FX light up red so I can more easily see what is actually selected?
Thanks!

2023.03.29 11:36 OnforuLED How to Choose Office Lighting Fixtures?

How to Choose Office Lighting Fixtures?

https://preview.redd.it/dj2vf6rgdnqa1.jpg?width=920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=69ddc4d4a7d5cdade6717552de976f65957aaa09
The comfort of the office environment has been greatly associated with the efficiency and quality of work and even the health of workers. The office light environment is actually one of the factors that affect the comfort of the office environment. Reasonable lighting can not only meet the needs of office lighting but also improve the enthusiasm of employees, so as to better serve the work.
In the past, office lighting is mostly functional lighting, often choose to use incandescent lamps to complete the lighting work, but in the long run, this high illumination of the light will gradually affect the work status and efficiency of employees. The modern office building's interior space is generally composed of office space, public space, service space, and other ancillary facilities and other parts, different work scenes have different needs for light.

What conditions does office lighting need to meet?

1. Color Temperature


https://preview.redd.it/4vbjyu7vdnqa1.png?width=1678&format=png&auto=webp&s=571144873091b6e6c17f47b9539e6d687bdc7f4e
Color temperature, generally expressed by the value K, the lower the color is warmer, red; conversely, the higher the colder, blue, there are generally warm light, neutral light, and cold light three points. In the past, many companies in order to pursue the overall warmth of the office will choose to use such as incandescent lamps, decorative chandeliers, and other warm light sources, to create a warm and comfortable office atmosphere.
But in excessively warm light, it is easier to relax the mind and produce the intention of sleepiness, resulting in the inability to concentrate on work.
So office spaces as people's daily production and work in one of the most frequently used places, it is recommended that the main lighting color temperature is between 3500K ~ 4500K more appropriate, at this time, neutral light or cool light refreshing will make people more focused in the office.

2. Color Rendering Index

Color rendering index refers to the object irradiated with the light source and standard light source irradiation, its color meets the degree of measurement, that is, the degree of color fidelity. Generally speaking, the higher the color rendering index, the better the color rendering. Conversely, the lower the value of the color rendering index, the worse the color rendering performance.

3. The Lighting Methods

https://preview.redd.it/v4jpyyebenqa1.jpg?width=920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2ae4b61586e00ab9676c2447c99cdc33bcc2f2df
Office space is commonly used lighting is direct lighting and indirect lighting. Generally speaking, today's offices are divided into large space office and independent office two.
Large space office is currently the largest proportion of office space in the region, only to provide uniform general lighting, lighting should be uniform, and comfort, usually using a uniform spacing of the layout of the lamps and lanterns method, and combining with the ground functional area using the corresponding lamps and lanterns lighting. In a large space office, you can choose to use some surface light fixtures, so that the brightness of the light is high and not too harsh, and the irradiation range is also relatively uniform.
Independent office areas use general lighting and local lighting more and need to pay more attention to the brightness than the problem, for independent office areas, in order to meet the basic lighting work, but also combined with office decoration style to add some ambient lighting, and show corporate culture.

4. Illumination

https://preview.redd.it/75anssfcenqa1.jpg?width=920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=438086a102988e99d749a7f10aa659bd05a03304
Illuminance refers to the degree to which the object is illuminated, office illuminance refers to the office lighting brightness. High illumination low color temperature space will feel very hot, while low illumination high color temperature space will produce a gloomy and tired mood.
In the high color temperature but low illumination in the office environment, people tend to feel gloomy and tired, reducing work efficiency. Usually, the illumination of the office area is at least not less than 300lux. general space illumination brightness of not less than 100lux, local lighting brightness of not less than 600lux.

Conclusion

With the development of the times and the progress of technology, people's demand for a better life is rising, office lighting is gradually gaining attention, it is not only a place to work, but also become an external social, colleague relations, corporate culture and self-recognition of the resource gathering place.
Therefore, in the office lighting design for enterprises, you can first from the visual comfort, interior decoration, and other aspects of demand, synchronized consideration of corporate culture, work style, and another environmental atmosphere, in order to meet the basic lighting in the office area at the same time, is committed to high quality, healthy light efficiency to help employees efficient office, to inspire employees to work with a positive attitude to create, to create a good office culture atmosphere.
Onforu's most popular office lighting, browse the led floodlight and strip light pages to shop, now is the best time to get the best deal.

My brother just had his hair shaved at the barbershop using a straight razor. It looks good on him, but we were talking about those colored dots. What are they? Are they small pimples caused by the razor or something else? He has no skin issues or pimples on his face, nor does he have any history of skin issues. His skin color is tan/light brown.

2023.03.29 11:31 Big-Tip7720 Introduction to World Autism Month

Introduction to World Autism Month


Autism Speaks is the world’s leading autism science and advocacy organization. It was founded in February 2005 by Bob and Suzanne Wright, grandparents of a child with autism. Their longtime friend Bernardine Dorhn also played a key role in the organization’s formation.
Since its inception, Autism Speaks has made tremendous strides in bringing the autism community together as one powerful voice. In May 2008, Autism Speaks launched the first-ever World Autism Awareness Day, which was officially recognized by the United Nations. The goal of World Autism Awareness Day is to increase the understanding and acceptance of people with autism around the world.
In 2010, Autism Speaks partnered with the UN General Assembly to pass a resolution designating April 2 as World Autism Awareness Day. This designation helped raise global awareness of autism and spurred many countries to hold their own events and celebrations on this day.
April is now World Autism Month, and each year Autism Speaks strives to make it bigger and better than the last. This year, they have partnered with Google to light up landmarks around the world in blue – the color of autism awareness – on April 2nd for World Autism Awareness Day. So far, over 50 iconic landmarks in 26 countries have signed up to participate!
Autism Speaks also funds groundbreaking research into causes and better treatments for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and provides resources and support services to families affected by ASD.
How to get involved in World Autism Month
World Autism Month is an annual celebration of the autistic community. It's a time to raise awareness and understanding of autism and to show support for people living with the condition. There are lots of ways you can get involved in World Autism Month. Here are some ideas:
-Share your story. If you're autistic, or have a loved one who is, consider sharing your story with the world during World Autism Month. This can help others to understand what it's like to live with autism, and why more acceptance and understanding are needed.
-Educate yourself and others about autism. Take some time during World Autism Month to learn more about the condition, and share what you've learned with others. There are lots of great resources available online and in books.
-Attend or organize an event. There are often events held during World Autism Month to raise awareness and funds for organizations that support autistic people. You could attend one of these events, or even organize your own!

2023.03.29 11:31 WarmStew23 The War of Tears - Chapter 2

File - Journal Entry Report - Elias Dexter
Species - Human
Date Stamp - December 2, 3023, Standard Union Time
Location - TAS LockHaven, in deep space

The Union accepted our plea for a war declaration. We should have been happy, right? The truth is none of us were happy. Video footage of the Grim’s attack on our expedition spread through the Union media like a wildfire. It was practically impossible not to see it. The Union stated there was going to be a mandatory draft. Something like that didn’t affect us, the Terran Alliance had already met their quota within a week after the draft announcement.
I was already a First Lieutenant in the Terran Alliance’s Army, so any draft already didn’t apply to me. It just meant the most likely scenario was our immediate deployment into no man's land. The Terran Alliance, or TA for short, wasted no time drawing up battle plans. While the rest of the Union drafted and trained their militaries, the Terran Alliance, along with the Luthal Commonwealth were set to launch a coordinated preemptive invasion on the Grim territories. Little is actually known about the Grim, other than the fact that they have the ability to consume us. They have some kind of technology that would allow them to drop us out of FTL in a moment's notice.
But I suppose I should start at the beginning of the battle, I’ll try my best to remember as much as I can. During the briefings we were given we were told we were about to take the planets most likely to be their outer worlds. Planet hopping a few of us even called it. The plan was derived from what the old United States did over a millennia ago in one of their major wars. But what most of us overlooked in the history books was how bloody those battles were.
The first mission would put us on a Grim planet you could say bordered the sol system, it was the closest habitable system to sol inside no mans land. The planet, we would later find out, the Grim called Drug. I'm not sure why the Grim gave one of their planets such a bland name but that was the least of our concerns. Our top priority was to eliminate all military assets on and around the planet. We would conduct orbital bombardment to soften up the anti-air defenses we knew had to be there, then we would drop in all sorts of assets. Tanks, armored vehicles, portable command centers, anything we should need in case of a long, drawn out war.
However, our first mistake was assuming we would make it to Drug easily. I know I mentioned we knew about the FTL disruptors, but the TA must've overlooked that key piece of intel. Hell, we all watched the video of Captain Hugh Adam’s crew. They experienced the FTL disruptors first and even warned us about them. Even the commons soldiers knew that.
I was in the mess hall when it happened, attempting to down what I speculated would be my last good meal for the foreseeable future. My closest friends in the service, Christian Newman, and Julian Smith sat across from me on the other side of the table. When the FTL disruptor hit us, there wasn’t much the Inertial dampeners could do to soften the blow. The table, along with myself, flipped over my two friends. I ended up landing on top of the table, which crushed them both. I rolled over, noticing I spilled some of my dinner on myself.
I quickly helped my friends push the table off of them, both of them rubbing parts of their body that the table must have hit. An alarm started blaring just in time for us to regain our sense of reality.
“That’s the battle sirens,” Julian spits out, “Bastards must have intercepted us, they must really not want us to make it to their planet.”
“Whatever, lets just head to the armory, I’ll fucking kill the bastard who made me spill my potatoes all over my uniform,” I mutter. We jog down to the armory and fit ourselves with our vests, knee guards, helmets, and our weapons of choice. Personally, I prefer a rifle, but Julian has always preferred the shotguns. Whenever we would go to the range to practice our shooting, he always boasted about how he puts bigger dents into the targets, especially at close range.
After I finish grabbing the last magazine of ammo I need, I have to push through a dozen other soldiers who need to grab their gear. I walk back out into the hallway, where Julian and Christian are already waiting for me, and secure my final magazine in my vest.
“All units, prepare for a Grim boarding party, I repeat, prepare for a Grim boarding party!” the loudspeaker shouts to all of us. “Grim forces are docking from airlock 3-C on the starboard side!”
Airlock 3-C? That should be right below us, I think to myself.
“Let's go,” Julian shouts to me and Christian. We follow him to the stairwell, where we can already hear intense gunfire.
“God damn it,” Christian says, “How the hell did they catch us with our pants down this far?”
“Relax,” Julian says, as we fly down the stairs. “Let's just focus on getting out of this alive.”
I open the door to the hallway, when we open it, one of our soldiers flies past us and lands hard on his back. When he landed, the three of us could clearly hear the snapping of some kind of bone in his body. The soldier shrieks out in pain. Christian quickly rushes to the soldier, while me and Julian turn our attention to the direction of the airlock.
There has to be two or three dozen Grim already on our ship, with several more barreling their way in. Several dead Grim soldiers blanket the floor in front of the airlock, their fellow soldiers walking over their bodies as if they couldn’t give a second thought about them.
I rest my rifle on a storage crate and begin to unload my ammo onto the Grim soldiers. I attempt to save several Terran soldiers who have gotten themselves cut off from retreating to us, but there is only so much I could do. I watch as one of the Grim appears to absorb one of our dead comrades. It's as if their skin opens up to allow the human into their body, and their body immediately breaks down everything. I put a bullet into the shoulder of one, missing the headshot that I was aiming for. Reinforcements pick off the remaining Grim soldiers from behind. Roughly two dozen soldiers stand on the other side of the dead Grim boarding party. Julian is the first one to point his shotgun in the storage room.
“Get the hell out here you bald headed piece of shit,” he shouts. The Grim soldier walks out with his hands above his head. Amazingly, the wound on his shoulder has healed.
“I shot you,” I shout, “Why the hell isn’t there a gunshot wound on your shoulder?”
The Grim soldier smiles, “It is the energy I stole from one of your pals, my body converts energy much faster this way, and the more energy I have, the quicker my body heals itself.
Julian shrugs, “Alright, let's test that out real quick,” he lowers his shotgun to the Grim’s knee, I grab the barrel of his gun and point it away.
“Relax, we captured one, we can’t go executing prisoners. Just detain him and help gather up our dead and wounded. Me and Christian will help board their ship. Clearly they underestimated us.”
Julian nods in agreement. Clearly watching our fellow soldiers getting eaten like slaughtered cattle was something that bothered him, hell it clearly bothered all of us. But it was clear he needed to process the situation on his own. I glance over to find the other soldiers had already abandoned us, all but two, who detain the Grim soldier while Julian watches.
“Christian,” I say, getting his attention, “me and you will catch up to our boarding party and back them up in the event they need it.” He gives me a nod and we head for the airlock.
The sheer smell of the Grim ship is overwhelming, we can smell it before we even reach the airlock. I quickly clear the airlock, even though Terran soldiers entered less than five minutes ago, we were taught never to assume an area is cleared unless we were the ones who personally cleared it. The other side of the airlock is dark. Given the Grim’s physical appearance, both their lack of body hair and pale body, I estimate the Grim must prefer dark environments. Me and Christian flip down our night vision goggles and enter the ship.
The hallways were probably three or four times the size of ours. It is clear from out initial observations the Grim must really appreciate personal space. We hear a couple of gunshots echo from the left side of the airlock, so we begin to make our way down towards the sound. We quickly pass few rooms, so far all of them appear to be storage rooms.
After another minute or so walking down the hallway, we catch up to the Terran group, who stand posted up aside from a large steel door.
“God damn it Dexter, we almost shot your ass, don't ever sneak up on us like that again,” Sergeant Morgan Chang states. “Several Grim soldiers are barricaded inside this room, the door is too thick for us to open it. What should we do?”
Since I am technically the highest ranking officer among us, It makes sense they would look to me, even if it did catch me off guard. “Honestly, depending how thick the door is, I say we weld their asses in there. But that probably isn’t the smartest tactical solution. Just use some C4 to blow the door in and we’ll just pick them off.”
The soldiers nod in agreement and begin deploying a large amount of C4 to the door. After they are finished, they hand Sergeant Chang the detonator. “These bitches are about to find out exactly why you dont fuck with us,” She says, then she squeezes the detonator, blowing the door inwards. Five pops from Chang’s soldiers, then silence. Myself and Chang enter the room last, with Christian keeping post outside, to inspect the damage.
Six Grim soldiers dead, which is odd because I only remember hearing five shots. “I thought I only heard five shots?” I ask Sergeant Chang.
“That is my fault,” one of her soldiers says with a smile. I look at the nameplate, which reads Fraizer. “They lined themselves up, so I guess one bullet went through both of their skulls,” he says.
After confirming all six Grim soldiers are dead, we move on. We still don’t know much about the layout of the Grim’s ship, but we ignore our ignorance and continue to make our way down the hallway. After another 100 feet or so, we reach the end of the hallway, only a secured door sits at the end of it. I sit back as Chang’s forces follow the same procedure from before to blow the door open.
This time, me and Christian sit back as they clear whatever is on the other side of that door. “Uh, Lieutenant,” I hear Chang’s voice shout, concerningly, “You might want to come take a look at this.”
I leave Christian behind as I enter the doorway. On the other side however, it appears to be some kind of holding center for prisoners. Blue light emits from the shield that holds its prisoners inside. I lift my goggles up to inspect the holding area. Four out of eight cells are in use, and the prisoners are all of the same species. The prisoners appear to be almost rat-like. They seem smaller than us humans, comparable in size to the Luthal.
“Who are you?” I ask one of the creatures, but get no response.
“I already tried that,” Chang replies, “They must not have neural-transmitters like we do, so we probably won't be able to speak with them, unless you have a portable translator device.”
“No, we don’t, we’ll have to get them back to our ship, I’m sure we have something back there,” I reply. “Free them, make sure you make no threatening gestures, if they struggle, then detain them. Our safety comes first, but just remember they are prisoners to a species that eats other creatures by touching them, so they are probably scared.”
Chang’s soldiers nod in agreement and begin smashing the controls to each cell, releasing the blue shield keeping them locked away in their cells. The frightened creatures follow us out of the holding cell.
“All Terran forces fall back to the LockHaven,” We hear over our radios. That order can only mean one of two things. Either the Grim are retreating, or we are. We secured the alien prisoners with cuffs, which I hated to watch Chang and her soldiers do, and began to head back onto the LockHaven. After securing the airlock, we watched the Grim ship disconnect from ours. Out the airlock’s window we could witness our ship and the Grim’s exchanged plasma fire. After we put a good distance between us and the Grim ship, dozens of missiles rocketed towards the Grim ship. The missiles collided in an explosion, leaving only debris where the ship once stood. I look around the space near us to see we were the last ones to ward off our boarding party. I don’t know if we all succeeded, but it definitely looks like we kept most of our fleet intact.

2023.03.29 11:31 ParaMoon42 Angry Now And Just Venting...

Hello, everyone. It's me, Dani. :-)
I'm the 42-year-old sibling/anime nerd/writer, who's trying to care for my 57-year-old brother named Rob with a brain tumor and a badly infected leg (due to diabetes, thanks to the brain tumor). Along with my sister, Ace, who is the true rockstar and angel in all of this. And Rob's wife is a SAINT! She's put up with this madness for over a year and deserves all of the flowers possible! =p
So, it's been *checks notes* NINE days since I made my first post here, which started out with me venting about the horrible state of Rob's leg, the difficulty in changing his bandages (and peeling chunks of his skin away in the process, because the infection was THAT BAD!), about me going into a room to silent cry after those changings - before putting on a happy face again and approaching Rob with empathy and compassion again.
And just like the erosion of his leg, so is the state of our sibling relationship - as I've reached the point of screaming, cursing him out, and blocking phone calls altogether from Rob! I'll explain...
So, Ace took him to the best VA hospital in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. Once the medical staff saw the state of his leg, they IMMEDIATELY admitted him and set up a whole team of specialists for him. Two wound-care specialists, a new endocrinologist, a GP (that Rob loved and kept praising a lot), a head nurse named, uh... let's call him Calvin - that took to him as a fellow ex-soldier himself, a psychologist (as he voiced that he was feeling a lot of anxiety and wanted to talk with someone), a social worker, and a group of nurses to tend to his every need and whim.
This dream-team would football huddle together and work quickly with the goal to save Rob's leg from being amputated from the knee, as that was a real possibility on the table. (Keep in mind, this isn't on his Veteran benefits - no, it's on his wife's private insurance). And the treatments were super effective, with every one of his doctors pretty much giving the green light that he'd likely be released from the hospital by Monday. Meaning the Monday that's already passed now...
By Saturday, Rob decided, "My leg is healed enough! I want to go home!" He meant that he wanted to go back to our apartment for my sister and me to resume playing nurse-maid to him. Every doctor was adamant in their professional opinion that it would be unwise for him to leave the hospital in the middle of the treatment that will save his leg! So many times, the phrases "not recommended" or "I wouldn't recommend it" was repeated by every doctor and specialist. They would tell Rob this directly and oftentimes with Ace in the room to witness it.
Somehow, Rob heard, "Something-something... you can go home now if you want to." Every. Single. Time. And when Ace went home from her visit with him, he'd get the doctor to get on his phone, to relay to Ace that he can skip out on his treatment, but the doctor would repeat over the phone, "I don't recommend that your brother signs out of treatment prematurely, in my professional opinion." Then Rob would take the phone back and shout to my sister, as if he was vindicated, "You see? Doctor says I can go home!"
Calvin tried to warn him, "If you leave this hospital, you'll lose the leg for certain!" Rob tried to argue with the head nurse that his leg wasn't that bad, so Calvin stated the truth, "Dude, I can smell the infection, as we speak." I had experienced that smell for two days before he went into the VA... it smells of rotting flesh! No lie or "no cap" as the kids say these days.
Rob got angry and decided that it was all his wife's fault that he was losing his leg. He called her up on the phone, screaming at her, and asking for a divorce, as poor Ace tried to calm him down. His wife's account was, that she gave him his antibiotics - he refused to take them and the infection got worse. And that's an observable truth, as Rob has a habit of not taking his medication when he's at home and it's left up to him to do. And, he's too prideful to let anyone else manage his medications for him.
Either that or too paranoid. I don't really know.
Before Saturday, on Friday, Rob decided that Calvin was at fault and should be fired. He blamed Calvin for "lying" to him about the risk of losing his leg, deciding that it was never that serious at all, and that Calvin was purposely trying to get him to divorce his wife. And then, more bizarre conspiracy theories against the hospital and staff occurred. (see the previous post, if you're curious.)
So, it's been days of nonstop gaslighting and emotional blackmailing from Rob! And... for some crazy reason, he believes I'm the "weakest link" (even though, Ace has openly admitted that she's the weaker of the two of us and has been leaning on me for support to not cave into his mind-games), and his presumption that he's somehow "smarter" than me and that he can easily get his way from me only pisses me off MORE so! :(
And the worse thing is - the leg thing is situated now... It's not great, but they managed to stop the infection. Rob took it upon himself to flood my phone with photos of his bloody mess of a leg, to "prove" to me that his leg is fine. Even though it looks like a shriveled and dead tree limb with huge gaping bloody wounds, that are actively staining the white linens within the photo. Yes, there is no more liquid and pus, just lots of blood flowing now, but... Seriously, any special effect artist would be PROUD to recreate the way his "leg" looks now, for any horror movie!
BUT, on Sunday, his brain tumor swelled up so much that his eye is drooping, because it is pressing on the optical nerve. Rob's vision is impaired by the tumor and the surgeon wishes to schedule him for brain surgery as soon as possible. They're trying to get a spot for him in the OR and everything set up, but... you know, COVID, so the systems are still bogged down, and the soonest they could get it was in a few days from now. He has to STAY for a few more days to get the brain surgery that he most certainly needs.
And he will... because he has no other choice. =p
In my last post, I explained that Ace and I set an ultimatum to him - if he signs out AMA, he'll have to figure out on his own how to get back to our apartment and how he's going to climb the stairs to the second floor alone. Fat chance of him being successful at either - because he's too weak to sit up on his own, let alone stand on two legs without any help, and he's not been in Minnesota long enough to learn how to travel it yet. (FYI, we're far away from the hospital, in a suburban town many miles away! And he doesn't have any money to pay for that kind of cab fare, even if he wanted to!)
Ace and I are doing a little "tough love", refusing to take him out of medical care, which would be actively helping him to die on our sofa if we did. Nope.
His wife is in FULL and EAGER agreement with this too, along with Rob's social worker as well. The social worker will speak to his new GP about getting a psych eval for him (because the doctor that he praised so much before was harassed and driven up a wall so much - he switched rotation to another floor, just so Rob could stop insisting that he speak with Ace on the phone several times a day and say that it's okay for him to leave the hospital with a huge swollen BRAIN TUMOR in his head!!!)
It's okay... I'm taking a breath. LOL.
So... in order to stop getting his gore-fest photos and his constant calls, still trying to convince me that I'm a better nurse to him than, you know, nurses who went through medical training and all. And trying to hit every pain point in me to get me to cave into what he wants, I blocked his number. Leading up to the blocking, I DID blow up at him on Monday and shouted, "No, you listen to me! Your leg is f**king falling apart! I was peeling off your skin, every time I changed the bandages! Why do you think I'd immediately go back to my room, every time? I went to my room to CRY!" Rob paused, but he didn't care at all, he continued to argue that his leg was NEVER that bad and now that the infection was gone, he should come home... ignoring the swelling BRAIN TUMOR!!!!
I had enough and erupted with, "You're not going to manipulate me, you mother****er!!!" I don't use that swear, usually, as it was my mother's favorite swear. Perhaps, I was channeling a bit of her short temper, at that moment.
Then Rob tried to argue that I can't see very well (trying to use my eye condition against me - I am visually impaired with Keratoconus, yet in my constant blurred vision, I could see his skin sloughing off his wounds anyway. And so did my sister, who isn't visually impaired... nor were his doctors who were shocked and stunned at the state of his leg too, and poor Calvin the head nurse too), that I was seeing his leg "wrong" and "imagining things"... and that's when I hung up and blocked him.
For the past two days... of blissful peace! XD
I went about my day and life as usual while checking in on my sister, from time to time, who was still taking his calls and being driven up a wall.
And the phone block on Rob should have remained...
Tonight, he used the nurse's desk phone to contact me and leave a message on my voicemail. Before he went into the hospital, I had happily presented him with a "house-warming gift". You see, I suffer from PTSD and night terrors (will not get too much into that, just mentioning it for clarity's sake), and my sister bought me a tank with osculating jellyfish in it, to help me sleep better at night. It's a lot pretty, and calming, and it does help me out a lot.
When Rob came to visit us the first time (in far better health than he is currently in and not at all the asshole that we know him to be as now - I know, I know... it's the tumor.), he saw it and thought it was the coolest thing ever. So, I asked my sister to send the link to where she bought the tank, so I that could buy one for Rob when he came back to live with us/seek medical treatment in Minnesota. (That was THE PLAN, after all, that Rob would move in with us for a while and seek medical care here in Minnesota, as he said that our state had better doctors here than in Maryland.)
So tonight, Rob decided to leave me a message, saying that he was sorry and that if he was to go back to Maryland - would it be okay if he took along the jellyfish gift with him? No matter how much of an asshole someone is to me, a gift is a gift. I don't take back gifts, NOT EVER. That's not my style at all. And so, I took him off the phone block to text him just that. Word-for-word.
He wrote back - his words jumbled and misspelled heavily, because of his vision impairments, that was along the lines of "I know that you hate me now." And I replied back, "I don't hate you. I'm just not willing to put up with emotional blackmail bullshit." So then he called me and I kind of KNEW it was a bad mistake to answer, but I did answer...
Immediately, he tried to convince me that he can come home now because there was a "scheduling error" and the doctors said that he can leave for two days and come back for the brain surgery this weekend! This began a shouting match between him and me! LOL! Ace had talked to the doctors and social worker YESTERDAY, who said no such thing. And they keep stressing, if Rob leaves now, it will take at least three whole weeks before he would be able to get in brain surgery. Because, COVID, things are stressed and short-staffed in every hospital.
He will not last that long. He will either die of starvation (as he's not eating meals - and that's not anything new. Ace and I noticed that for a while now, before he went to the hospital, and had asked his wife about it too. She confirmed that Rob wasn't eating much in Maryland either. It may be time for a feeding tube to be introduced soon), or the pressure of the tumor may cause him to have a fatal stroke or other grizzly brain horrors and he'll die on our sofa.
I said to him (and please excuse my swears), "Stop being such a bitch-baby and stay for the surgery!" And he grumbled, "Stop calling me a bitch-baby..." And I literally punched the air, because I was so pissed off, and I snarled, "Okay, I will when you STOP acting like one!!!" Then I realized that I was screaming my head off past midnight, caught myself, and said, "You know what? Ace is in the next room, trying to get some sleep, so she can work in the morning... I'm NOT doing this with you, Rob!"
Then he asked, "B-but... do you still love me, as your brother?" I answered, "Yes, I love you, Rob... even though you're f**king nuts right now!" And he sulked, "I'm not f**king nuts..." Then he said, "Okay, I'll let you and your sister rest tonight then." And... he's back on phone block. I don't think I'll unblock him until AFTER his brain surgery. =p
Fool me once...
Anyway, sorry for this crazy long post! I did try to edit it down, but... so much has happened in the last... *checks notes again* OMG! TWO DAYS, since I last posted here. Seesh! :(
I'll update - AFTER Rob has gone through surgery and is situated. I just needed to vent and blow off some steam... at, currently, 4:30 AM in the morning. I'm hoping that this long af post was at least a little entertaining and provided a few chuckles, at the very least. ;-)
Be excellent to each other. And peace out!

2023.03.29 11:26 StelarCelarDweler The Frayed Threads of Fate - Chapter 1

The sun streamed through the windows of the McDonald's, casting a warm, golden glow on the faces of four friends sitting in a booth. They were laughing and enjoying their breakfast, a light-hearted banter filling the air. The comfortable hum of idle chatter mingled with the sizzle of the deep fryer, and the scent of warm, greasy food wafted through the restaurant.
Daymion Gallo, a 20-year-old male with red hair and blue eyes, took a sip of his coffee before addressing his friends. "So, are we all set for the day trip to Flagstaff? I heard there's an amazing spot for photos up in the mountains."
Shaemus Heginbotham, Daymion's 22-year-old brother, pushed up his glasses with a hint of excitement in his blue eyes. "Definitely! I've been doing some research, and there's a place called 'Aspen Corner.' It's supposed to be incredible this time of year. The leaves are changing, and the views are breathtaking."
Karina Traynor, Daymion's girlfriend, brushed a strand of her medium-length brown hair behind her ear as she listened intently. Her brown eyes lit up at the idea of an adventure with her friends. "That sounds perfect! I've been wanting to get some new photos for my Instagram. Plus, I've never been to Flagstaff before."
Reganne Ghirardelli, a 5-foot-3 brunette with brown eyes and Shaemus's fiancée, chimed in. "Count me in! It'll be nice to get out of the city for a day, and I'm excited to see what Flagstaff has to offer."
As they continued to discuss their plans, Daymion suddenly felt a chill crawl up his spine. His vision blurred, and he found himself in a nightmarish scene set within the McDonald's. The once bustling restaurant was now eerily silent, and time seemed to slow down as he observed a series of events unfolding before him.
An employee, carrying a tray laden with food and drinks, slipped on a puddle of soda that had gone unnoticed. The tray flew into the air, and the contents tumbled to the ground in slow motion. A large cup of iced coffee collided with a helium-filled promotional balloon, which had been drifting lazily near the ceiling. The balloon, now punctured, spiraled out of control, its ribbon wrapping around a decorative paper banner hanging from the ceiling.
The weight of the balloon tugged at the banner, which was anchored to a wall-mounted TV on one end. The force was enough to dislodge the television from its mount, causing it to crash onto the counter below. The impact sent a canister of powdered coffee creamer flying into the air, scattering its contents like a cloud of dust.
The friends, seated together in the booth, watched the bizarre scene unfold before them. As the cloud of powdered creamer hung in the air, a nearby heat source—an exposed wire in a malfunctioning electrical outlet—ignited the highly flammable dust.
Flames erupted, and the fire spread rapidly throughout the restaurant. Reganne, who had been closest to the outlet, was quickly engulfed by the flames. Her friends looked on in horror as the fire consumed her, leaving them paralyzed with shock and disbelief.
Shaemus, desperate to save Reganne, grabbed a fire extinguisher from the wall. He pulled the pin and aimed it at the fire, but in his panic, he failed to notice that the extinguisher had been tampered with.
The pressure gauge showed it was overcharged, making it a dangerous weapon rather than a life-saving tool. As Shaemus squeezed the handle, the extinguisher exploded in his hands, sending shrapnel through the air. A jagged piece struck him in the temple, and he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
Karina, realizing that the situation was growing dire, frantically searched for an escape route. She noticed a window that led to the outside and made a run for it, hoping to break it open with a nearby chair. However, as she lifted the chair to smash the window, a dislodged ceiling tile, weakened by the flames, fell onto her. The heavy tile struck her head, causing her to lose consciousness and collapse onto the floor, the fire closing in around her.
Daymion, now the last of the group still conscious, fought to maintain his composure amidst the chaos. The fire roared around him, and the heat was nearly unbearable. He spotted an emergency exit and made a desperate dash towards it, his heart pounding in his chest. Just as he was about to reach the door, a support beam, weakened by the flames, collapsed in front of him, blocking his path.
Trapped and with no way out, Daymion felt a sense of hopelessness wash over him. He closed his eyes and braced himself for the inevitable. But in that instant, the horrific vision faded away, and he found himself back in the booth with his friends, the restaurant once again bustling with life.
Disoriented and shaken, Daymion took a moment to process the terrifying vision he had just experienced. He knew that he had to act quickly to prevent the horrifying chain of events from becoming a reality.
"Guys, we need to get out of here right now!" Daymion exclaimed, urgency lacing his voice. The others, startled by his sudden outburst, exchanged confused glances but could see the fear in Daymion's eyes.
Without waiting for a response, Daymion hurriedly ushered his friends out of the booth and towards the exit. As they left the restaurant, the chain of events from Daymion's vision began to unfold behind them.
From the safety of the parking lot, the group of friends watched in shock as the McDonald's burst into flames. Daymion's heart raced as he realized the gravity of the situation and the narrow escape they had just experienced.

2023.03.29 11:18 Hi_Unknown_here PARENTAL TALK: MEETING OF MIYAMURA’S AND HORI’S PARENTS

PARENTAL TALK: MEETING OF MIYAMURA’S AND HORI’S PARENTS
And thus, Kyosuke died…
It was Summer and as they had graduated from high-school, Izumi, Kyoko and gang had went to the beach as once proposed by Remi. Using this opportunity Kyosuke and Yuriko decided to pay a surprise visit to Izumi’s parents – Iori and Naozumi. They had decided to go early evening around the time when the bakery closed, to visit them at the bakery so that they won’t interrupt their business. But there was a small problem….. Kyouske…..
“AAAAAAH!!!! WHERE IS THAT BAKERY!!!!!”, he screamed in agony as the 45th minute of him trying to locate the bakery passed. But to his rescue came, the one and only, the myth, the woman, the legend – Yuriko Hori! Giving a great speech (lecturing Kyosuke), taking the map from him (taking his phone) and seeing through the mist of traps and codes on the map (trying to understand the weird font Kyosuke uses) she declared -
“We passed the turn to their bakery twice before and we have been walking in the complete opposite direction, darling (you idiot).”
“Yuriko, I can’t wait anymore, I will run towards it, you can come as fast as you want.”, saying Kyosuke took off causing a sonic boom as he ran faster than sound leaving behind all the pleas of Yuriko to stop.
Meanwhile at the Miyamura bakery –
Iori stood behind the counter with a notepad, counting the remaining cakes and going over the day’s transaction once again. Naozumi came back from toilet and asked, “I think you are almost done, I will go and sort everything at the back, I have to set new supplies too….. aaaaah so much work!!”
“Now, now, don’t complain a lot.”, Iori replied.
As she completed her task she someone at the door; customer….. but her mind was bamboozled as she saw a “tall ash colour haired smoking man with a lot of sweat who looks like a mafia” (her interpretation).
Confused, she approached cautiously, she was greeted with a question, “Is this the bakery where Miyamura Izumi works?!”
“Yes…”
“Ah I see, he must not be home, we are the reason after all (he is with kyo-chan)”
Stunned Iori stood frozen, only one thought spread in her mind – HE HAS KIDNAPPED IKKKUN!!!!
“Is Izumi’s father here?”, he asked.
“Yes…” OH GOD HE IS GOING TO ASK FOR RANSOME OH GOD PLEASE NO!!!!
She was about to lose all hope but again, came the great savior Yuriko and said, “Dear, you must not scare your daughter’s boyfriend’s parents like this.”
Daughter’s boyfriend’s parents…. Wait does that mean…
Soon the misunderstanding sorted and Iori took them both to her house, telling Naozumi come from behind. She also packed a few cakes.
Back at the Miyamura household’s living room, Kyosuke sat near the center table staring out the large window trying to light a smoke. Iori and Yuriko were chatting and preparing tea and cakes to be brought out. But before Kyosuke can finish lighting his smoke a cold voice from behind stopped him, “No smoking in the house.”
As he looked back he saw a man with brown hair and familiar blue eyes that screamed only one thing – This is Izumi Miyamura’s father!
They both sat face to face at the center table with and awkward silence surrounding them. Kyosuke took the initiative, “So you know, you have a very brave son, he has been able to survive with Kyoko this long, living with her is like living with a dragon, you never know when you get attacked.”
He said it very casually but saw Naozumi thinking very seriously over it. He got scared for a second thinking how he might react but to his surprise he got a, “You know, Iori is not like that, but I was friends with a girl like that in High-school.”
And so the two past high-school popular boys began discussing with great interest, concentration and dedication – the girls they knew back in high-school. Only to be stopped by the intense stares of their wives.
As the great discussion came to an end and they all sat down and started discussing about everyday things.
Yuriko said, “You know these days we don’t get time at all. That day I saw a picture of mine and Kyosuke when we once went to search for clovers with slightly elder kids. Such great days they were.”
Kyosuke laughed, “I remember, that brown-haired guy who was with us got so angry that he couldn’t find any.”
Iori said, “I used to go hunting for clovers all the time. I met Naozumi during one of my trips.”
Yuriko intervened, “You know the elder girl with us had similar hair to yours…”
Iori said, “oh really, you also mentioned brown-hair, Naozumi has brown hair too, such coincidence….”
They all stopped talking for a second.
Naozumi said in a calm voice, “I bet I can beat you all in finding clover if we went head on today.”
Everyone instantly realized the situation and Kyosuke screamed, “You bet! I can beat you anytime!”
They all started laughing.
“Ahh.. they were such good days. Just carelessly enjoying out time.”, said Iori with a smile.
“Yes, and now we have to worry about our kids.”, added Yuriko.
“I know! I didn’t even know Ikkun had a girlfriend, his friend told me.”, said Iori
“They all grow up so fast, I remember when Izumi was still a child, crying every time he fell.”, sighed Naozumi.
“I don’t know about crying but Kyo-chan sure made Sengoku’s kid cry a lot!”, joked Kyosuke.
Everyone laughed and soon with their tea and cakes their talks ended too.
After a pause of silence Naozumi said, “I love how Izumi blushes every time I mention him marrying Kyoko.”
“I know right! Kyo-chan starts blushing too, though she also starts shouting how we are embarrassing him. I am sure Izumi-kun doesn’t do that, he is such a quiet kid.”, said Kyosuke.
“Oh not at all, he runs away all embarrassed too!”, laughed Iori.
Before they could continue further, they heard the door open and up came Izumi and Kyoko back from the beach, hands filled with bags, a slightly tanned skin and with lots of fun memories. They had decided to come here first and give the souvenirs to Miyamura’s parents, and then proceed to her house. But they were surprised to find all the elders together.
“What are you two doing here?”, asked Kyoko surprised.
“Nothing, just meeting Miyamura’s parents. You know, to discuss your marriage.”, teased Kyosuke.
“Our…. Our…. Marriage?!!”, they screamed together.
Izumi stood blushing at the door confused while Kyoko dragged Kyosuke a out who were followed by Yuriko saying farewell to Izumi’s parents.
“I will give them the souvenirs later! I need to deal with Kyosuke!!”, Kyoko screamed as she went away.
The great parental talk ended with laughs and warmth (and some screams and confusion).
THE END.
