Netherlands Compounding Pharmacies is estimated to Witness High Growth owing to increasing demand for customized medicines

Compounding pharmacies in Netherlands have created unique opportunities for pharmacists to combine, mix, or alter ingredients to create customized medicines for specific medical conditions of individual patients. Compounded medications are prescribed when an FDA-approved product is unavailable or when a health care provider decides that an alternate ingredient, dosage form or strength would better treat a patient's medical condition. For example, if a patient is allergic to an ingredient in an FDA-approved medication, a compounded version can be made without the ingredient they are allergic to.

The Netherlands Compounding Pharmacies Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 599.62 Mn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.5% over the forecast period 2024 to 2031, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights. Market Dynamics: The growing demand for customized medicines due to increase in prevalence of allergies and chronic conditions are mainly driving the Netherlands Compounding Pharmacies market. Compounded medications allow formulations tailored to meet specific needs of patients who may be allergic to inactive ingredients in FDA-approved medications, cannot consume certain product formats like a pill-based solution, or need a specific dosage unattainable through commercially available products. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), in 2020, approximately 50% of adverse drug reactions reported were caused by inactive ingredients that some patients were allergic to.Compounded medications avoid exposure to these allergens while still providing treatment. Moreover, compounded drugs offer solutions for chronic diseases and complex medical conditions that commercially available products cannot adequately treat. This drives the demand for Netherlands Compounding Pharmacies. SWOT Analysis Strength: The Netherlands compounding pharmacies market share has highly skilled pharmacists and stringent regulatory guidelines. Compounding pharmacies in Netherlands provide tailored medications to meet specific needs of patients. Customized medications ensure better treatment outcomes. Weakness: Shortage of raw materials and API supplies can hamper compounding activities. High operation and production costs associated with small batch sizes pose financial challenges. Opportunity: Growing geriatric population and rising prevalence of chronic diseases will drive demand for compounded formulations. Advancements in 3D printing and robotics provide opportunities to streamline production processes. Threats: Stringent regulatory environment may increase compliance costs. Intense competition from generic drug manufacturers poses pricing pressures. Supply chain disruptions due to global health crisis threaten timely availability of medicines. Key Takeaways The Netherlands compounding pharmacies market is expected to witness high growth. The Netherlands Compounding Pharmacies Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 599.62 Mn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.5% over the forecast period 2024 to 2031.

aether (one of the) main character(s) in hit game genshin impact hits on you.

thank u sm for beta reading @mitsies i love u and your silly comments and insightful suggestions on googledocs, wc 700, NO ONE IS ACTUALLY DEAD

“Holy—Archons!”

Anyone would be surprised if a body materialized from thin air right in front of you, lifeless like a doll. You stare at the body, thoughts racing as fast as your heartbeat, and all the while, the man with sun threads as hair lay eerily still on the ground, eyes fluttered shut.

The man is terrifyingly beautiful, like a fallen star. A limp and unmoving fallen star, that is. Your jaw extends to the ground, terrified and—mystified? Immediately, your instincts scream at you to perform emergency measures, but—

A pixie comes barreling in from somewhere, tears running down her cheeks as she zeroes in on the presumably dead body.

“Was he your friend?” you ask quietly, mourning on her behalf. Were they siblings? The way she’s slapping his face around seems so.

“He’s not dead!” the little pixie exclaims, sniffling and shaking the apparently not-dead body.

You stare at her, perplexed. “Then why are you crying?”

“Because Paimon had to go through that trial challenge alone!”

“The what?”

Paimon huffs, slamming her tiny fists on the man’s bare waist. It seems to not even have left a mark on his skin. “You wake him up. Paimon’s upset at him.”

It’s hard to say no when tears are rolling down her face. Obediently, you poke around the man’s shut eyes, and it snaps open.

You flinch back. He blinks blearily.

“Are you okay?” You study his face, looking for any signs of a newly born zombie, but his face looks flushed and as healthy as any living human being. His eyes are bright and gold as they stare back at you.

“I’m in heaven,” he says. “Celestia has done it. I’m seeing angels, and I’m in heaven.”

Angels? Celestia?

Paimon tackles his face, shaking his shoulders and crying. “You’re not dead, dummy! How dare you leave Paimon in Dragonspine! All alone, Aether!”

“Oh,” Aether says, sounding almost disappointed. “Then…?”

“You’re not dead,” you agree with Paimon, because evidence lies before you despite the initial fright. However, his comment about angels has you a little flustered. “Um, what happened?”

“Ah,” Aether laughs sheepishly, rubbing the nape of his neck. “I failed the trial, and it respawned me back here. Which is weird—I haven’t been in Bubu Pharmacy for ages!”

“I’m sorry?”

Aether jumps to his feet, startling you enough to fall on your ass. He grins down at you and offers a hand. “At least I got to meet you,” he says, pulling you up from the grass. You stumble from his strength; he catches you easily, and you bump against his chest. “Or—not meet you yet. What’s your name?”

You can’t believe the previously perished fallen star is now hitting on you. “I’m… Y/N.”

“Y/N,” he repeats, smiling broadly. “I’ll remember that.”

You hope that your face doesn’t betray the warmth you feel fluttering under your skin.

Aether sighs, casting a glance at the ground he was previously lying on. “Sorry you had to see that. That was probably very disturbing and decidedly not flattering for me.”

You can’t help but laugh. Aether beams. “Does that happen often?”

“When I get a little rusty, yeah.” He tilts his head, looking at you up and down, then around your surroundings. “Do you work here? I haven’t seen you around before.”

“Just recently.” You gesture vaguely to the side, feeling a little shy. “If you don’t see me hanging around, it’s probably because I’m always loitering the docks to watch out for exhausted tourists.”

Aether’s smile turns sly. “Nurse me back to health, would you?”

But then Paimon starts tugging on his ear and away from you, a relief for your racing heart. “Enough flirting! You can come back here after you unlock that precious chest!”

“Ow, ow, okay,” Aether laughs, hesitating, before letting you slip from his hold. He takes a few steps back, his smile as blinding as stars seconds away from exploding. “The docks, right? I’ll see you soon!”

By 'soon,' you hope he doesn't mean he'll attempt to die again immediately, but you figure you'll find out eventually. You glance around to see if anyone is watching, then decide to take a stroll around the docks for reasons no one should know.

i cant believe mitzi's first aether fic is THIS i feel so ashamed lmfao, but TY FOR READING!!!!! <3

EXTRA GRILLED CHEESE.

bucky barnes x fem!reader

word count. 1066

summary. bucky has suspicions that you might be pregnant

For the last week, Bucky had an expression you struggled to place - his face often pulled together with intrigue, brows quizically furrowed when around your company. At first, it seemed normal to you - his infamous resting bitch face, but the more he wore it around you, the more you started to worry. 

You often felt as though you were bothering him with your talking, the features on his face unusually hard and rigid as he listened to you. It was a silly thought, really - he's your husband. He'd tell you if he needed a minute of quiet. 

But the harder you looked, the more you began to realise his face wasn't that of judgment, but instead inspection - like he was analysing you.

Elbows resting on the kitchen island, you lean over the countertop, getting closer to Bucky sitting on the other side.

"Another one?" you ask, reaching for his empty plate.

He wryly smiles. "Only if you are."

"One is never enough," you chuckle sweetly, pulling the ingredients back out of the fridge - collecting everything you need for grilled cheese. "Might do a few more— been really hungry lately. That cool with you?"

Bucky hums softly, head tilted to the side as he watches you - completely smitten. That confusing expression long gone. 

"I got it," he stands, moving around the island to you on the other side. "I got the rest. You sit, honey."

You smile cutely, stepping aside and sitting on the countertop - allowing your husband's help. "What do you want to do tonight? Movie and snacks?"

He places the sandwiches in the pan and moves to stand between your legs - slotting his lower half between. Giving you a chaste kiss, he smiles, eyes soft as he looks over you. "Sounds good. Will have to go to the store though— don't have enough in."

"We can go after this?" you offer.

He hums, kissing you sweetly. He pulls back, eyes darting over you. "We'll stop past the pharmacy first. Gotta pick something up."

⎯ ☆ ⎯

Back within the comfort of home, you and Bucky begin to put away the items from the store - bags open on the worktop as you rummage through them, standing side by side. 

Bucky stills and turns to face you, reaching into his pocket. "I uh..." he pauses and clears his throat. "I picked this up while you were looking at things in the pharmacy," he starts, pulling out a small rectangular box. "Feels stupid, I don't know," he shrugs, not confident with the direction of his proposal. 

Your eyes flicker from the box in his hand and up to his face, looking over him inquisitively. "A pregnancy test?" you ask, taking it from his light hold.

"Feels like I'm insulting you," he chuckles bashfully, stepping closer to you. "It's just... I have this feeling," he says softly, extending his hands to rest on either side of your face. "You don't have to take it."

"No— no, I do— I think. I want to. It's just that..." you exhale faintly. "We haven't really spoken about this for a while. What if it's not the result we want? What if we don't like what we see on the test?" you ask anxiously, fiddling with the box.

Bucky pauses, a soft smile on his face as he tilts your face back up - making you look up at him again. "We have time," he says sweetly. "If we don't like what we see, there are changes— there's other options," he solidifies his reassurance with a kiss. "I'll be happy with either result."

"Should I do it now?" you ask, looking down at the box.

"You do it when you're ready, honey. Doesn't have to be now, doesn't have to be today."

Briefly reading over the writing, you feel a slight swell in your heart. It all felt so daunting. You knew this was something you'd both eventually want, but the idea of it beginning now was enough to make you feel queasy. Everything was going so well in your lives, and this was such a big step in your marriage - you were just scared of what the result would do to you both.

With a deep inhale, you shrug sweetly, feigning bravado. "Piece of cake."

"Piece of cake," he repeats, kissing your temple. 

Stepping aside, you walk into the bathroom - box clutched in hand as you read through the directions. The heavy thumping in your ears distracting you from understanding it all. 

After following the instructions, you place the stick aside on some toilet paper and call in your husband, moving to sit on the edge of the bath. Without missing a beat, Bucky steps into the small room, eyes focused on yours as he walks to sit beside you - slipping his hand into yours assuringly. His large hand enveloping yours. 

You sit in uneasy quiet for what feels like an hour, each of your brains whirling with thoughts and ideas and questions - the noise far too loud in your minds. 

Then, finally, after a while, your timer goes off, the obnoxious sound interrupting you both from your fazed-out states.

"You look."

"Are you sure?" he asks, holding your hand as you both stand.

You hum anxiously, nodding at him.

With one hand tightly in yours, the other reaches for the little stick - fingers loosely wrapping around it. Bucky stills, the features on his face slowly softening.

"What does it say?"

He nods faintly, his brows curving up in the middle. "Positive," he murmurs, the shock evident in the way his tone wavers. "It's positive."

"Positive?" you repeat, your expression widening.

He hums, enveloping you in a tight embrace - pressing kisses into your cheek. 

"We're having a baby," you mutter, voice cracking slightly.

"Yeah," he nods, pulling back to look over your face - checking you were okay with it all as he is. "We're having a baby," he echos you, cupping your cheeks.

"You're okay with this?" you ask, focus blurring from a few stray tears.

He nods firmly. "Of course," he chuckles, his tearline slowly filling. "Are you?"

"Yeah," you laugh lightly, nodding - the gentle grip of his hands moving with the soft motion of your head.

"I'll give you everything you want. Everything you need— I'll get you it all."

You already had everything you wanted.

Period Care | Lads men x gn reader

Characters: Zayne, Xavier, Rafayel

Warnings: Gn reader ,mentions of reader having mood swings,period cramps, english isn't my first language, haven't fully played the game yet so these maybe aren't 100% accurate

A/n: I wrote the Zayne headcanons for my bestie and I ended up deciding to also write for the others. I actually planned on writing a Valentine's fic but I haven't finished it because I was busy preparing for my Valentines date.

Comments, likes and reblogs are always appreciated and really motivate me to write more <3

Zayne:

Zayne as the dedicated partner that he is has a period tracker for you on his phone. He uses it so that he can be one step ahead, ready for when your period comes around just to ensure that he is fully prepared.

He is like a walking pharmacy, he always has your favorite relaxing tees and painkillers on hand. In general, he has a period product stash, just in case you have forgotten to restock or were caught off guard. Just in case he has a secret supply tucked away.

He is a doctor so obviously he is offering some medical insight. He will probably explain to you the medical technicality with periods and all that kind of stuff. Would be the first one to tell you to see a doctor if you have bad cramps. 

He would probably also recommend some gentle Yoga stretches that are supposed to help with cramps

He has some hidden sense for your emotional needs. Somehow he always perfectly knows when to help you out and when to give you some space while on your period.

But of course, while he is a doctor and gives you a lot of practical solutions, he will also give you lots of physical affection if you need it.

He'll wraps you up in his arms holding you close and giving you all the kisses that you want. He might be a bit exhausted from his demanding job but Zayne is dedicated to being there for you.

Even if he's barely able to keep his eyes open he'll stay by your side offering you comfort and support.

Okay, now imagine this.

It's early in the morning and you are curled up in bed battling with cramps straight from hell. Before Zayne heads off to his shift in the hospital he slips into the kitchen makes you a hot water bottle and gathers everything that you could need. He brings them to you and gives you a kiss on your forehead telling you that he will come back as soon as he can.

Zayne will do whatever you need and will be especially good at giving you practical advice. And even if you ignore his advice his explanation will at least put you to sleep.

Xavier:

Xavier is the epitome of patience and care, he is your dedicated partner during your period.

 He's not just there, he is really present offering you a comforting presence. 

There is just something about Xavier that makes you feel safe almost like sinking into a warm hug. He really is a master at cuddling, wrapping you up in his arms, and napping alongside you.

Xavier tends to be a bit forgetful about the timing of your period. But when it's actually there he is by your side, doing whatever it takes to make you feel better.

Oh did I mention that voice of his? It's just so calming. 

If you need a distraction from some cramps Xavier's soothing voice and words will ease your mind lulling you into a peaceful sleep. And when you wake up you'll find him right beside you, probably also asleep. 

He in general just relishes in keeping you close and caring for you during this time. Even if he doesn't fully understand your mood swings he remains calm and understanding trying to support you in every way he can.

Also, any medication you need he is gonna immediately get, if he doesn't already have it, and whatever your craving he is gonna bring to you. 

I think he would maybe like to pet your head or play a bit with your hair to help you relax if you are fine with it.

And I can't forget to mention his hands, if you ask him to put his hands on your tummy to help with your cramps he will do so immediately. And in general, he would give you back or tummy rubs if you ask him for them.

Xavier just wants to do whatever you need during that time and is a very caring and dedicated partner.

Rafayel:

Rafayel tends to only realize that you have your period when you are more on edge than usual. He isn't really thrilled about you being in a bad mood but he rolls with it, kinda finds amusement in your crankiness, and uses it as an opportunity to playfully tease you.

With teasing, he will especially do this if you are being extra clingy, but he also uses your clinginess as an excuse to be extra close to you.

He'll wrap you up in his arms and always refuses to let you go until you feel better, he loves the extra cuddle time.

While on your period he would use darker bedsheets to help avoid staining.

He isn't exactly an expert about periods but he always stocks up whatever you're currently craving or your general favorite snack just in case.

If you need painkillers he's on it, he wants to make sure that you have everything you need to help ease your discomfort.

He can't really stand seeing you in pain so he will try and shower you with extra affection, peppering you with kisses and gentle touches, claiming that it's just for your relaxation.

Playful banter is kind of his love language. Beneath that, he really just wants to make you feel better but it includes a little bit of teasing and complaining from his side.

I imagine him preparing you a nice bath if you want to, bringing you into the bathroom, and telling you that you should relax. If you ask him to join you he would probably tease you about how you just can't be without him.

But actually, he just waited for you to ask, so he happily joins you while relaxing in the tub.

And if you thank him for helping you so much during your period you could see him getting a little embarrassed, his ears turning a faint shade of pink.

Rafayel all in all is just really affectionate and loves using your period to soak in extra attention and affection from you.

some info on topical Testosterone (T Gel)

we've gotten quite a few asks on what topical testosterone is like and if it's inferior to injectable T, so i wanted to write up a quick post on it, since i've gotten a lot of asks from people who think it doesn't work/doesn't work as well as injectable testosterone. i have been on topical T since 2019, and have also worked inside of a pharmacy, so I just wanted to provide some insight for curious folks:

it is the same hormone, just in a different method of administration- it isn't weaker or stronger than injectable. some people just respond better to certain routes of administration- topical medications are very bioavailable, as most people's skin is one of the most receptive places on their bodies to medication, next to direct injections. it's a very effective route of administration

your needs will depend on your body and your dose. communicate frequently with your doctor and ask for tests if you are feeling unsatisfied with how testosterone is affecting you, or if you feel like your dose is too low. if topical ends up not working for you, it is okay to switch if need be. some people also switch from injectable after a few years to prevent skin and muscle tissue damage from years and years of injecting.

if your dose is correct, topical T can still stop your periods, and give you the other desired effects of T. some see results from topical faster, some struggle to see results, it really depends on the individual. for many, there are very strong peaks and valleys (ups and downs) in their hormone levels after injections due to the body metabolizing injectable T so quickly- this can cause sudden fluctuations in energy levels, making one feel like they are/causing one to have mental health episodes, and so on. topical T is introduced into your system more gently and can help one avoid these issues, if the dose is correct. this can be avoided with injectable as well, it's just less commonly seen in topical.

in many states in the US, for some reason, injectable testosterone is often automatically covered by insurance for trans HRT, but not topical. if you run into issues at your pharmacy, if they tell you there are "insurance problems", talk to your prescriber about them sending over a prior authorization. these are usually required for topical T, for whatever reason. this is basically a note from your doctor stating why you need it. this should fix the issue if you are struggling to get it covered by insurance.

the strength will depend on your dose, which can be very painlessly adjusted- if you receive a bottle of gel, it will inform of you of how many pumps to take. if you receive small individually dosed packages of gel, you will take so many of those per day or week. when taking injectable testosterone you have to measure your doses yourself which can be difficult for people with hand tremors, low vision, etc.

do not take catch-all advice for administering your topical T once you have it- follow the directions exactly as they are listed on your bottle and in the informational paper/booklet included with the medication. different formulations and types of topical testosterone will need to be applied on certain areas of the body.

make sure you clean the skin before application with soap and warm water, or other products like bacteria killing wipes, alcohol wipes, etc.

the gel is alcohol based. it has a pretty strong rubbing alcohol smell, and can burn the inside of your nose/eyes or potentially overstim, so just try to keep it away from your face if you struggle with issues like that. it absorbs very quickly and doesn't rub off on anything or leave a greasy mess.

cover the skin you applied it to (upper arms/shoulders or abdomen, depending) with a shirt immediately and keep that shirt on for at least 2 hours. you do not want to risk someone else touching the sites you applied it to and getting testosterone on their skin, which can affect their hormone levels, and can also make it so you do not absorb all of the medication

do not shower, swim or spend extended periods of time shirtless for at least 2 hours after applying topical testosterone, to ensure you absorb all of the medication.

i will add more info to this as i think of it. i will also be including a scanned version of the informational paper that came with my topical testosterone, and other information for further reading. take care and remember, all forms of T are worth considering and are good. testosterone HRT is rad.

( have my babies ruben )

Y/N and Rúben had met in 2021, in a party hosted by their mutual friend John Stones; Rúben had been single for about a year now and Y/N had not considered the prospect of dating anyone, much less a football player due to being completely focused on her career as a journalist; however the pair who were the most quiet during the party had instantly hit it off, and from then onward - a string of voice calls, face time calls and text messages began, coupled with spontaneous dates whenever time had allowed, eventually lead to a beautiful relationship.

Rúben was everything Y/N could hope for, handsome, charming, polite and respectful - he was basically a blessing sent to her from the gods above, and just as they neared the end of 2021, they moved together to their shared home, and Y/N had quit her job to become a freelance blogger, writing about general topics overall which was a slow and steady rise to success as people began to flock towards her blogs and instagram account seeking her advice in regards to a better lifestyle which she was more than happy to oblige.

While she did so, Rúben had been nothing short of supportive, often times offering his own insight which she credited in some of her articles; that had helped deepen their bond, as both of them were very career driven when it came to their passion and dreams, leading to Rúben spontaneously proposing to her at the start of 2022, taking one step further in their relationship.

Everything seemed to be going well, up until around three and a half months into their engagement; Y/N begins to feel nauseous, dizzy and quite exhausted which at first she did not think much of it up until she realized that she was late, causing her to run to the pharmacy one day while Rúben was not at home due to being at an away game, she grabs three pregnancy tests from different brands just to be safe; and as she tried each one, they've all shown the exact same result.

Positive, the result was positive ... she was in fact pregnant.

There was a mixture of excitement and fear, as while Rúben did discuss the prospect of having kids, she wasn't certain on whether he'd be happy about this - and after the doctor's appointment, she was now prepared to face the storm that is, disclosing the news to her soon to be husband, she'd went about with her day as normal, cleaning the house then she moved on to make dinner just as Rúben entered the house, " Baby! " he said.

Her eyes widen, and her heart nearly dropped as she nervously responded. " In the kitchen "

She hears the sound of keys rattling coupled with a thud of what she assumed to be his bag falling on the floor, he walks into the kitchen - snaking his arms around her waist then burying his face her neck, " I missed you so much bebezinha " he murmurs, peppering kisses from her neck to her shoulder.

" I missed you too, my sweet prince " Y/N giggles, " That goal was so good "

" You saw that " Rúben grins against her shoulder, pressing one last kiss before lifting his head to look at her. " That goal was for my very sexy fiancée "

" Is that so? " Y/N asked with an amused tone, " I'm a very lucky girl "

" No no .. " Rúben shakes his head playfully, " I am the one who's lucky because I got to lock down the sexiest blogger in the world "

" Ok prince charming, please go and shower cause you stink " Y/N states with a playful tone.

Rúben feigns a pained expression and placed his hand across his chest, " Bebezinha, you're breaking my heart "

" Don't worry, I'll kiss it better later " Y/N murmurs, pecking his lips before gently pushing him out of the kitchen, she watched as he walked into their bedroom, she blows out a heavy breath then she continues preparing dinner.

About an hour later, Rúben steps out freshly showered and dressed in a pair of sweatpants and a black t-shirt which caught Y/N's eyes as the fabric clung to his muscles sending a shockwave straight to her core, No Y/N don't let the hormones control you, she chastises herself as she said, " Rúbes, dinner is ready! "

The pair sat down and were eating in silence, Rúben noted how shifty she was which caused him to break the silence, " Y/N, are you ok? "

" Yeah " Y/N forces a smile, " yeah but ... " she chews on her bottom lip, " I want to tell you something "

Rúben nods, still concerned. " Ok! "

" Remember when we talked about wanting children? " Y/N began.

" Yeah " Rúben nods once again.

" Well ... " Y/N's eyes trail to her abdomen, " We're going to be a family of three soon "

Rúben grows silent, his eyes widening as he tried to process what she had just told him. " Are you ...? "

" Rúben " Y/N smiled with tearful eyes, " I'm pregnant "

A large smile broke across Rúben's lips, as he pulled her into a soft kiss. " We're going to be parents "

Y/N nods, laughing despite the tears streaking her cheeks. " Yeah "

" I love you baby " Rúben smiles, pecking her lips repeatedly, " I love you so much, you're going to be the best mother in the world "

Midway through her pregnancy, at nearly five months; her belly had grown so much to the extent where she began to steal more of Rúben's clothes and less of her own, at first she thought Rúben would be upset yet he waves off her concern, assuring her that he adored her nonetheless, silencing her doubts by whispering; seeing you in my clothes, while you carry my baby is the sexiest thing I could ever see.

During one night, Rúben and Y/N were in the midst of getting ready to meet with John and Olivia; while Rúben was getting ready, he hears the frustrated huff of his fiancée causing him to poke his head out, " what's wrong? " he asks.

Y/N turns around, her brows creased and lips puckered out in a pout. " Nothing is going right, I barely got this dress on, I feel like I want to explode, your daughter is currently considering what position she'll play seeing as she is more than likely enjoying the fact that she gets to kick me every five minutes and my makeup is just - UGH! " she whines, " Let's face it, by the time I'll see Olivia, I'm going to spend the entire dinner comparing how she looks like a Victoria Secret super model and I look like a fucking blown out whale that kids use for pool parties "

Rúben shakes his head with a small smile, he hadn't worn his dress shirt yet as he was occupied with trimming his beard; he walks up to Y/N, extends his hand then takes her to their full length mirror - Y/N eyes him for a moment, " What? "

" Look at yourself " Rúben commands.

" Rúben " Y/N sighs.

" No, no " Rúben shakes his head, gently tilting her head. " Do you see yourself? "

" Yes, I look like shit " Y/N states with a frown.

Rúben glared at her, " I will not allow you to talk bad on this gorgeous body that is housing my equally beautiful daughter " he snakes his arms around her, then he rests his chin on her shoulder. " I love you, I fucking love every bit of your body, your gorgeous neck " he pressed an open mouthed kiss. " that collar bone " he trails a singular digit across her collar bone, " and those breasts " he groans, the minute his palms lay across her breasts, " I am going to be so jealous of my daughter because she'll spend more time sucking on them than me "

Y/N half giggles-half moans when he squeezed her breasts, as they were still very sensitive.

" You have no idea, how badly I want to fuck you " Rúben smiles, " I want to ravish you and show you how much I love you because you are going to have our daughter, so who cares that there are other women because I don't see any other woman except my sexy wife to be, who's going to be the mother to my baby girl "

Y/N blinks away the tears, " I love you " she turns around to face him and presses a kiss to his lips.

" I love you too, and I love every single inch of you " Rúben smiles, " Now, go on and finish getting ready, because I am going to spend every minute of that dinner bragging about your most successful article "

" Our daughter is going to be the luckiest girl " Y/N beams, " Father of the year "

" You're right, but she's not going to be the only one that's lucky " Rúben smirks, pulling her into an embrace; sneakily squeezing her ass to elicit a laugh from her. " Keep that in mind "

" I will remember that " Y/N smiles.

Why Hollis Forsythe is a Deeper Character Than You Realize

So ya'll seem to like my essay on why Loboto's Labyrinth is a good tutorial level for Psychonauts 2. I've wanted to write an essay on the rest of the cast as well, so I decided to start with the second character we head into the mind of: Hollis Forsythe.

We are first introduced to Hollis when she comes to greet the cast after they land at the Motherlobe. I have played this game with my friends and my step-dad, and both parties initially believed Hollis was the mole due to her saying she didn't hear the crew's call for help and her initial dismissal at the idea of a mole being in the Psychonauts.

She is shown to be strict, serious, and maybe has a bit of an ego due to her preference for "Second Head" instead of Lesser Head, and with how she conducts herself after the casino mission. She isn't exactly soft towards interns, particularly Raz, and she can easily be seen as intimidating.

I do think it's rather odd that she would put a psychic intern under the mentorship of a non-psychic employee, but think of the situation she has been put in.

Truman is out of commission, and she has to keep the whole place running, and a mole is possibly running around about to bring back the biggest threat to the Psychonauts ever, their budget is getting tight, and a new intern has plopped into her lap.

I am choosing to believe that Hollis put Raz under the mentorship of Nick Johnsmith as a temporary thing, and would have given him a proper mentor afterward (given that none of the interns are mentoring under Sasha, I believe that Hollis would have given Raz to Sasha if things went differently.)

However, after she gives your mentor, you can ask her about her diploma, and she mentions being an intern at the Neurological Hospital for one year before joining the Psychonauts.

We learn in Hollis's mind that the reason she left was because while she was interning there, she came up with a new method that could save lives, but Dr. Potts had stolen her work and claimed all the credit. Appallled at this, Hollis used Mental Connection to try and mess with Dr. Potts, but ended up breaking him and they had to call in the Psychonauts to help. Truman gave her the position after this.

It is interesting that this hospital internship seems to be so central to Hollis as a character given that it was only for one year. However, it does seem to have affected her character greatly. She is immensely worried about the safety of the children she mentors, after all, and there are several figments of people being hurt or being cared for in both of her minds. Hollis's Classroom, while important to establish Hollis, is not where Hollis's character shines.

That will have to be Hollis's Hot Streak.

In Hollis's Hot Streak, we go through the Pharmacy, the Maternity Ward, and Cardiology to get three gazillion dollars to enter the High Rollers lounge and fight the Lady Luctopus. In each of these areas, we get a good insight into Hollis's thought process.

Side note: the fact that the hub area is a six-sided DIE in the MORGUE...

This game and its pun.

Anyway, in the Maternity Ward, we see that Hollis actually has a very cynical view of babies and those who want them. Most obvious is the rich couple who only want a baby for their own gain. The fact that there's some emotional baggage only accessible through dark thoughts is also something to think about. In this area, when we go to the backroom, we hear Hollis say "Well, of course, the whole system is rigged! But I mean, I'm just one person! What could I do about it?" which reads very heavily like learned helplessness almost. Given that, if you go talk to Hollis in the Motherlobe after your family arrives, she mentions that "all families are terrible", it does imply Hollis might not have a good relationship with her family.

In the Pharmacy, the entire point is to fix the Pillinko Machine so you can win. With Hollis's heart in the wrong place, it's up to us to try and make better connections in order to get to the backrooms. When we're there, Hollis says "Swallowing your feelings sounds bad, but really, who wants to hear about those ugly things anyway?" She's clearly had to repress these emotions for a while.

In Cardiology, you bet on suits of cards in race. However, Hearts has a broken leg. Although Hearts is told to stay off the leg by their doctor, their doctor is also their boss, and if they miss another race, they'll be fired. They are being exploited. Makes me wonder if that's how Hollis felt when Dr. Potts stole her work. In the backrooms, Hollis says "Different race, same runner. I can do this on my own, I don't need anybody's help, I CAN'T need anybody's help." Hollis clearly feels overworked and stressed about the situation but feels as though she cannot ask for help from those around her.

There's still a lot about Hollis's mind that interests me. The mental barriers you have to shoot through blocking your way, the religious imagery that's also in her mind, etc. But overall, I think Hollis is a much deeper character than we're lead to believe, as she doesn't get to do much after the Casino mission. But still, Hollis is really interesting to analyze.

EDIT: I AM COMPLETELY DUMB AND FORGOT TO MENTION: The fact that Hollis associates being a doctor with gambling is also really interesting. Yes this is because of Raz's actions, but the several ways she associates the two is fascinating. You have to wonder how many patients Hollis might have seen die in her time as an intern.

Chamomile Kisses - Chapter 1 (Full)

Viktor X Fem!Reader (900+ words)

Enemies to friends to lovers

Chapters 2–6 now available using the tag chamomilekisses

Hi anyone who sees this! This is the full first chapter of the story, I have another lined up ready to post. Please leave a like or comment if you are enjoying this, I’m new to tumblr so it’s motivating seeing people actually interacting with my work. Also I wanted to say that this will be a long series! Thank you!

(How I imagine the new lab)

(How I imagine the clinic section at the front of the lab -couldn’t find credits for either)

You've dedicated over 3 years to the Academy, focusing your expertise on the biological sciences housed in the east wing. Although your background is in Pharmacy, you've embraced herbology to broaden your knowledge. Not only have you delved into the study of plants and their medicinal applications, but you've also become the driving force behind the flourishing herbology clinic.

As time has passed, your natural remedies have gained remarkable popularity, causing your clinic's demand to outgrow its initial, confined space. Hermendinger, your unwavering supporter in establishing the herbology clinic, keenly observed this expansion. Together with the council, he recognized your significant contributions, evident in the substantial revenue you've generated for the academy, second only to the pharmacy in the west wing of the academy.

Recognising your potential and the need for more space, the decision was made to provide you with a considerably larger area to operate your clinic. This shift to the north wing signifies the Academy's investment in your expertise, granting you the canvas to magnify your studies and elevate your herbology clinic to new heights.

You crossed paths with him –Viktor. He strode gracefully through the hall, his imposing form exuding confidence, his lush, chocolate hair swept back, framing his sharp features. His presence was unmatched, the rhythmic click of his cane trailing behind him as he remained engrossed in the papers held tightly in his grip. Click, click, click. In that fleeting moment, he continued on, oblivious to your presence. With boxes in your hands, you carried on your journey, making your way towards the glass door that lay ahead -your gateway to a new clinic and research lab, ushering in a fresh chapter in your life.

Unveiling the array of equipment -flasks, beakers, pipettes, and burettes, you meticulously unpacked within the confines of your lab. Your tools sprawled haphazardly across the surfaces, testament to the meticulous work that lay ahead before your grand opening. Days turned into a whirlwind of activity, just shy of a week's time spent sorting, organizing, and setting up both your plant study equipment and the natural remedies you intended to offer. The final touch awaited completion – the new sign, a masterpiece crafted by the skilled hands of the handyman. Amidst this transition, you had the privilege of meeting a multitude of new faces you hadn't encountered before. The wing you now called home specialized in engineering and experimental sciences, a vibrant tapestry of innovation and intellectual exploration. Among these new acquaintances was Jayce, who took it upon themselves to extend a warm welcome. It was Jayce who gave you more insight on Viktor, an introverted workaholic, reserved but with a kind and genuine heart.

Empowered by Jayce's insight, you mustered the courage to break the ice. As dusk settled in, and the lab doors were left ajar in anticipation of Jayce's return to close up, you seized the chance to observe Viktor. His absorption in his work was evident, his focus absolute as he remained oblivious to the world around him, including your discreet presence.

Over time, your late nights at the lab unveiled an intriguing pattern – the faint click of Viktor's walking stick at precisely 11 pm, marking his departure for the day. Today marked a turning point, the day you would take that leap and talk to him, setting in motion an unconventional relationship that would undoubtedly shape the chapters of your journey ahead.

As the clock struck 11 pm, you found yourself outside Viktor's lab, heart racing with a mix of anticipation and nervousness. Tonight was the night you had decided to introduce yourself and hopefully initiate a connection with the enigmatic man who had piqued your curiosity.

Summoning your courage, you approached Viktor just as he was preparing to leave. "Hi there, I'm (y/n)," you began, a friendly smile on your face.

Viktor looked up, his initially guarded expression shifting into one of pleasant surprise. "Ah, nice to meet you, (y/n). I'm Viktor," he responded, extending a hand for a handshake.

"Likewise," you replied, relieved by his warm reception. "I've been working in the new herbology clinic and research lab down the hall."

Viktor's eyebrows raised slightly. "Oh, the herbology clinic? That's interesting. Quite a departure from the engineering and experimental sciences around here."

You nodded, encouraged by his interest. "Yes, I've been focusing on natural remedies and plant studies. It's been a great journey so far."

The mood shifted suddenly. "So, you're the one who's going to run the herbology clinic?" Viktor's tone had turned notably colder, his eyes searching yours with an intensity that took you aback.

"Yes, that's right," you responded cautiously, unsure of the shift in his demeanor. "I'm excited about the opportunity."

Viktor's expression tightened, and a sarcastic smirk crept onto his lips. "Of course you are. Running a clinic based on nature's wonders. Quite the departure from my realm of rigorous experimentation, isn't it?"

You felt a pang of hurt and confusion at his sudden change in attitude. "I believe there's value in both approaches," you tried to explain, but the words seemed to fall on deaf ears.

Viktor's cold gaze lingered for a moment longer before he abruptly turned, his tone dripping with condescension. "Well, I hope your herbs work wonders, (y/n). Enjoy your venture." And with that, he walked away, his steps echoing down the hallway.

Left standing there, you were stunned by the abrupt shift in his demeanor. What had caused this sudden change? The questions whirled in your mind as you watched him disappear around the corner, feeling a mixture of hurt, confusion, and determination to understand what had just transpired.

Finding Family (Fizz's Found Family)-Chapter 4 pt. 7

The Bill

RoboClown: Running a little late, sorry. Bringing coffee. TheBigO: It’s after lunch. RoboClown: I’ll drink yours then. TheBigO: Have you had lunch? RoboClown: Of course. RoboClown: I could eat, if you’re offering. TheBigO: Do you want me to send a car? RoboClown: Don’t. I’m already on my way.

The day had completely gotten away from Fizzarolli. With only three months left until the pageant, Fizzarolli was doing more and more work. He was now working four days a week at LooLoo Land and on the weekends he was doing his best to promote himself for the games. Asmodeus had been helpful in getting him jobs around Lust, and had even pulled a show in Envy for him next week. This most recent weekend had been in Wrath. Every muscle in Fizzarolli’s body ached, but he was grateful for it.

Today was his off day with Mammon, but he was anything but off today. He had to make it to Sloth early for a chance to meet with his doctor about getting a med burst. He was lucky enough to have done a show in sloth a few weeks ago that the receptionist went to. She’d enjoyed it enough to get him in before the two hour visitation window at the facility four blocks away was over. Fizzarolli also had to make amends with Barb while he was at it.

By the time he had seen his doctor, seen Barb, gotten meds from the pharmacy, and gotten in line for some much needed coffee, Fizzarolli’s calendar was chiming letting him know he was supposed to be having an afternoon meeting with Asmodeus in 15 minutes. He hoped that Asmodeus wouldn’t be too upset, it was a genuine mistake.

Fizzarolli walked into Ozzie’s office 45 minutes late with four coffees from Sloth and a side shoulder bag that made Fizzarolli have to walk slanted the other way to stay upright. He wasn’t in a work costume today, nor was he in any of the clothes Asmodeus bought for him after his surgery. The first thing Asmodeus noticed about the other’s outfit was that he was definitely wearing his back brace. He was also wearing black dance shorts and a faded green tank-top with a dollar sign on the front from one of Mammon’s tours. Fizzarolli was wearing his Mammon approved horns, but with Asmodeus’s blue heart sensor on the forehead.

Asmodeus would have been much more distracted by the corseted, crop-topped jester if it weren’t for the look of dead exhaustion that hid in his eyes or the hint of a limp in each of his steps.

“Asmodeus, fuck. I’m sorry I’m so late.” Fizzarolli held up the cardboard box that held four coffees in it. One of them was already mostly gone.

“And what do we have here?” Asmodeus remained curious, it hid the worry better.

“Shaken espresso with with extra blond espresso shots, four pumps caramel and marshmallow foam” He pointed to the first one. “Latte with five blond shots and...I don’t fucking know.” Fizz pointed to the next one. His tongue wrapped around the one he’d been working on and took a sip. “cold brew up to the tits, five pumps sugar, sweet cream, little chocolate shavings on top.” Fizz pointed to the last one and shrugged. “That’s just black coffee.”

Asmodeus took the Latte, only because he worried about Fizzarolli’s heart rate if he actually planned on drinking all of these. With the way he was eyeing them, it looked likely. Fizzarolli took the others and climbed up into his seat. He didn’t sit on the edge like he usually did during their meetings. Instead, Fizzarolli curled up in the back corner where he could let the chair do most of the work supporting him upright. The exhaustion was much more evident once he was sitting. His hand curled close to his chest to sip at his coffee, the other two sat beside him, but his tail curled around him like a blanket and it looked like effort to keep his eyes open.

“Did you sleep last night?” Asmodeus had to ask the question twice more before Fizzarolli heard him and responded. The way he winced as his head lifted and back straightened gave Asmodeus more insight into what was wrong.

“No. I mean, yes. I did sleep. No it’s not that.” Asmodeus gave Fizzarolli time to collect his thoughts. Fizzarolli let out a sigh and flicked his tail towards the bag sitting on the seat with him. “Could I ask for some med management?”

Asmodeus stood without hesitation. “Which ones are we looking for today?”

“There’s no picture on these.” That surprised Asmodeus. Fizzarolli’s system was reliant on colors and symbols, his own secret code. When Asmodeus paused, Fizz clarified. “I just got them today. Haven’t been able to label it.”

“That’s why you were in Sloth” Asmodeus connected. He rifled through Fizzarolli’s bag until he found the pills without a picture on the cap.

“Which ones are these?” Ozzie mused, opening the cap. “How many?”

“Steroids. Just one” Fizzarolli responded. He stuck his arm out and curled his fingers up to signal give me “It was part of what I was doing there. Had to see Barb” Ram & Bull have never been ones to be good at hiding their emotions, but all three of Asmodeus’s faces are telling and full cf concern. Once Fizzarolli had taken his pill, he spoke up. “What? We haven’t done this yet?”

“Done what?” Asmodeus was confused. “Is she okay?”

“A steroid burst. Helps get through the pain for a bit. I’m trying to keep these weekend gigs. Have to get my name around, let people know I’ll be competing.” Fizzarolli didn’t really respond to Oz’s question about Barb. Not at first, but Asmodeus caught when Fizz’s face fell and his head shook the tiniest no and then shrugged. What all was Fizzarolli going through right now? And why was he so good at making it sound like this was normal?

“You need to rest.” The concern was evident in his voice this time.

“I will tonight. I have a meeting with you right now.”

“You could’ve canceled.”

“I already have a same day appointment fee to add to my bill with Mamm, I don’t need to add cancellation fee to mine with you.”

Oh, so we were back on this bullshit again. Asmodeus could feel the pain in Fizzarolli’s voice from just having to stay upright. He frowned, Fizzarolli didn’t notice. Fizz had turned his attention back to his coffee. He’d finished the cold brew and was now starting in on the espresso. He was relying on his tail to hold and maneuver the cup, he was exhausted.

Asmodeus stood and sat at his desk. He got his pen ready. “What else is on your bill?”

“Today or in general?” Fizzarolli hadn’t seemed to notice that Asmodeus had changed locations. That or he didn’t care.

“Humor me.” And Fizzarolli did. He spent the next ten minutes rambling about all the things he was in debt for and Asmodeus listened. When it died down to silence, Fizzarolli let it. He was starting to feel more alive, the meds and caffeine starting to work their way through his system.

“Are you hungry?” Asmodeus broke the silence as he slowed his work at his desk.

“I already told you I could eat.” Fizzarolli’s stomach growled on cue, both him and Ozzie frowned. “Something soft, if we could. Pasta, desserts, soup maybe. Salisbury steak in a blender. I don’t really want to chew.”

Asmodeus added something to the paper in front of him before standing up and returning to the sitting area in front of his fireplace. “I’ll go make the order. This is for you.” Lust turned towards his office doors to go speak with some of his staff.

“What is this?” Fizzarolli’s voice cut traveled across the room and stopped Asmodeus as he reached the double doors.

“It’s your bill, Fizzarolli.” If a steroid burst and an unreasonable amount of caffeine weren’t enough to wake Fizzarolli up, that statement definitely did the trick. So today was the day the shoe dropped. Fucking fantastic. He couldn’t be surprised, he knew he’d have to repay Lust eventually. He just hoped he wasn’t as hungry as Mammon was…..He wondered how Lust would want to be repaid. His hands were quick to open the paper and see what he would owe.

Itemized Bill Pay to the order of: Asmodeus, King of Lust, 5th Ring of Hell

Meeting: Late Fee…………….………………..……..Dink a glass of water Occupational Therapy………………..Eat something with utensil of choice Physical Therapy……………………………………...……..Watch a movie Medication Management………………………………………..…..Stretch Transportation……….……..Practice balance exercises *only after resting* Strategy Planning………..…………..Name three skills that have improved Marketing…………………………..………………..Sit still for 20 minutes Engineering………….……….Use sauna or hot tub for 30 minutes or more Technical Support………………………………………...……..Take a nap Emotional Support…………….…………..………..Drink a glass of water Food………………………………………..…...Eight hours of sleep tonight

When Asmodeus returned a few minutes later, Fizzarolli was holding the bill, the spade of his tail itching at his head.

“Ozzie, what the fuck is this?” This wasn’t a bill, this was a joke. Asmodeus wasn’t laughing, though. He looked quite serious.

“It’s your bill. I told you I’d consider billing you, I’ve decided to bill you. Do you intend on paying it?”

Fizzarolli’s tail shook, anger covering the confusion and other emotions he couldn’t name right now. This wasn’t a bill. How did any of these things benefit Asmodeus? How did Fizzarolli really pay him back? How did this equate to anything?

“This is a joke.”

“No it’s not.” They stare in silence for a while longer. “It’s written on my letterhead, my signature is on the bottom of the page. I gave it to you. Each service is itemized with accompanying repayment. What makes you think it’s a joke?”

Fizzarolli didn’t even know where to begin. What he ended up saying was “You have drink water on here twice.”

“It’s two glasses of water. Is that too much to ask for in an evening?” Fizzarolli couldn’t argue with him, his tongue was tied. It wasn’t too much to ask, it was too easy.

“How do I even pay you with this?” a wisp of blue appeared in front of Fizzarolli, a water bottle dropping from it and falling down next to the other. Asmodeus nodded for the other to go ahead and take it.

Fizzarolli’s eyes stayed locked on Asmodeus��s as twisted the cap off and began drinking the water. When he finished half of the water bottle, a line magically struck through one of the Drink Water’s. The Jester’s eyes narrowed.

When the food arrived for them, the occupational therapy line crossed out as Fizzarolli used a fork to eat his omelet. Ozzie had decided on breakfast for their meal. A good soft and fun choice. One of Fizzarolli’s favorites, but only in the late afternoon or evenings. He gets both of this drink water goals accomplished by the end of his meal. He’s still exhausted, but he’s doing better.

“A hot tub, Asmodeus?” But Lust called Fizzarolli’s bluff and showed him to the gym and other amenities open to Oz, his guests, and his staff. He made sure no staff were in the sauna or pool area when he brought Fizzarolli to see. Thirty minutes later Fizzarolli was floating happily in the pool, nearly asleep if not for Asmodeus poking him every few minutes to make sure he didn’t drown. The engineering tab crossed out on Fizzarolli’s tab.

“That nap?” Fizzarolli was wrapped in a large towel from Asmodeus’s supply. His muscles had loosened with the warm water jets and being weightless for a while did a wonder for his joints. Fizzarolli was feeling more alive, but the idea of being horizontal for a while was appealing.

“I’ve a guest room. Would you like to pay off that portion of your now?” Fizzarolli nodded and suppressed a yawn. He allowed Asmodeus to carry him to his suite. This was the first time Fizzarolli would get to visit the penthouse.

Later that night Fizzarolli and Asmodeus watched Hell-a Novellas and made fun of them, another two sections of his bill were eliminated. Fizzarolli found it surprising how easy it was to pay everything off, but by the end of the evening he no longer wanted to believe that this was a joke.

“So….eight hours of sleep?” Fizzarolli was stretched along Asmodeus’s sofa and took up less than one of the cushions. Asmodeus sat beside him, his attention turned from the television and nodded at Fizzarolli.

“Am I supposed to do that here?”

“You’re welcome to. Did you find your accommodations comfortable?”

“I did.” Asmodeus smiled.

“Then please, stay the night. Otherwise, let me send you in a car.” That bed was the most comfortable thing he’d slept in ever. If Fizzarolli was being given the opportunity to spend the entire night in that bed, then he wasn’t going to say no.

“Thank you, Asmodeus.” Fizz yawned.

Fizzarolli paid off his bill for the day full, rested, and happy. He would still be sore in the morning, but he’d wake up somewhere warm with soft sheets and the lights wouldn’t hurt his eyes. He’d be able to get out of bed and shuffle into a kitchen that didn’t breed vermin, and there would be coffee. It seemed like so little, but it was enough to make Fizzarolli feel like royalty.

Idk about mallow root, but sloppy elm has been historically used for abortion

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Like the newer book, based on what the note taker outlined under the elm pages and the mallow root pages, that person likely had a sore throat. But the second book from the Catholic girl's school from the 50s? When the ONLY page in the entire book marked was slippery elm (I skimmed through the whole thing to be sure), specifically on one page with a recipe for making it into tea? And it was known to be used for abortion? Definitely would line up.

Interestingly, while that use isn't mentioned in the older book, the slightly newer one from the seventies does mention it! The author brings up looking for elm powder at a pharmacy, and the pharmacist telling him it had become hard to find. Why? Because a bunch of women had been using it for exactly that reason. It was an interesting little insight, and one reason I love paging through old used books.

#ask response #i'm glad i'm not the only one that went #'hm herb used for this? marked in a book? from a girls catholic school?' #wouldn't surprise me in the least tbh
