Hello! Are you interested in learning how to navigate the FDA recall website? Here's a little information about it!

As of now, the website is at: https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts

Here's what you'll see when you visit:

Below this, you'll find two things:

- A search feature

- The comprehensive list.

How to interpret the list:

I will use the first item as an example. It says "2/10/2024" and "SaveMart."

Do I frequently by any "SaveMart" food? I don't know. I'm not familiar with that brand. Sometimes smaller, better-known brands are contained under these larger categories. So I will click on it:

Now I can see that "SaveMart" includes something else called "Lucky" and "Lucky California." I also see that this recall is about their "service deli chicken street taco kit" specifically.

Is that all the information I need? I will scroll down to read the Summary.

It's important to note WHY the product is being recalled! Some are "less serious" recalls, such as "oops, we said this product didn't have peanuts, but it might." (I say "less serious" because allergens are less of a health risk for the average person than pathogen contaminants like Listeria, E. coli, etc.) These "less serious" recalls can still indicate poor quality of production, so even if they aren't relevant to you, it's worth being aware of.

However, this recall is Listeria! What is Listeria? Often, the recall page will explain the contaminant and it's dangers. There is often other VERY IMPORTANT information too.

So I will scroll down and skim the next section:

Note, there is a description for Listeria.

But IMPORTANTLY, it notes that the risk comes specifically from cotija cheese from Rizo-Lopez Foods.

At this point, I'm not sure if other products containing this ingredient have issued recalls. Typically, recalls are made voluntarily by the brands/companies that sell the products. However, the FDA can also announce contaminants, if the companies do not volunteer that information. I will return to the main page and continue reading the recent recalls, looking for the Rizo-Lopez cojits cheese as I read about other recalls.

I click on the second one, Stater Bros., and hey! That looks familiar! Is it the same cheese? I scroll down to see:

Yep, same cheese!

And when I scroll down more, I find some very helpful information:

So, the FDA and CDC are investigating the outbreak. It's related to cojita and queso fresco. And, helpfully, there is a link for more information!

When I click the link, it takes me to a page for Rizo-López Foods, Inc, and their voluntary recall of dairy products. Tumblr says I can't add more pictures so here's some information from the page:

The recalled products were distributed nationwide by RLF and through distributors. Products also were sold at retail deli counters including, but not limited to, El Super, Cardenas Market, Northgate Gonzalez, Superior Groceries, El Rancho, Vallarta, Food City, La Michoacana, and Numero Uno Markets.

The recalled products include cheese, yogurt, and sour cream sold under the brand names Tio Francisco, Don Francisco, Rizo Bros, Rio Grande, Food City, El Huache, La Ordena, San Carlos, Campesino, Santa Maria, Dos Ranchitos, Casa Cardenas, and 365 Whole Foods Market.

Note that it discusses some of the places it was sold, and the brands it was sold under! If you have loved ones who buy the products, be a sweetheart and tell them.

At the bottom of this page is a BIG, HELPFUL SECTION OF PHOTOS of some affected products! You can screenshot those to reference at the store, and send the photos to loved ones.

If you are quick, you can scan a whole year's worth of recalls in 10-30 minutes. Then you just need to periodically check back for new ones!

Okay, hope that is helpful for someone! Stay up-to-date and stay safe! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

So I finally figured out the best way for me to plot Rings is to write it out like I did before ie like you;re telling a rapid story/juicy gossip which stops me from writing the same scene in different angst/fluff/horny versions

so spoilers for the next few chapters under the cut if you’re interested

So the first night of the honeymoon is...fine. They spend most of it laughing over whatever the fuck was today and agree that staying married is really not an option. Megamind has conveniently forgotten that he agreed to be a superhero and Roxanne winds up laughing in Megamind's arms as he proves that he can in fact dance like Fred Astaire on the balcony of their suite. Its a remarkably fun night all things considered until Roxanne goes to push open the door to what she assumes is the other bedroom of the suite and finds the kind of closet that she's been dreaming of all her life and that means...

There is only one bed. Fuck

Cue panic

And Roxanne getting stuck in her dress

help

But Megamind has also been having just a hint of a breakdown because dancing with Roxanne made him realise that oh no he's in love with his wife and he hasn't wished he was human for a long time (not true) but it does mean that she's probably not going to be okay with tentacles which is the kind of thing you should probably tell a prospective partner BEFORE you marry them so he's going to sleep on the couch far far away from temptation. And Roxanne is an absolute horny mess because she is absolutely hiding her feelings behind her libido but Megamind is being very considerate of not being THAT KIND of villain which means she feels like he doesn't want her and nothing kills desire faster than not being wanted so that’s its own problem.

Except the couch is kind of squeaky because its leather and he can't sleep and eventually Roxanne comes storming out and demands he come to bed so they can both sleep because he's keeping her awake too.

And they do.

Sleep

Just sleep

And wake up tangled together on Friday morning.

That's not awkward at all

That's also the morning they find out they have the suite for the rest of the weekend, which, delightful. Divorce can definitely wait a couple of days while they ruin Wayne's credit rating. There may be a bit of a moment where Megamind catches Roxanne trying on his mantle over her pjs that will either be incredibly angsty or incredibly hot but that that is not part of the plan we're just pretending that didnt happen, or it did and that is how they decide to be married for the weekend (IDK, working on it). In the mean time there are casino heists to plan and chess and scrabble to be played and evening brings Megamind back to bed with Roxanne because its just easier at this point. And when he wakes up because UNFAMILIAR in the middle of the night he plays with Roxanne's hair at her askance for an hour until they both fall asleep.

Roxanne is more than okay with having someone permanently willing to play with her hair on tap as all people should be.

On Saturday Roxanne is awake first and spends some time thinking about how tired Megamind looks and how he should really take some time off and they can go to the beach or something after they get back. This should probably have been a clue about her feelings but hey, leave a girl her river in egypt.

This may or may not be the day she also glues him to the headboard of the bed with the decoupage setting on the de-gun while she has a shower.

Megamind genuinely considers gnawing off his own arm because she didnt quite manage to close the door properly and that is its own kind of torture.

They have a bet about paper airplanes and landing them in the fountain. Megamind wins so Roxanne has to show him a trick (Roxanne is not thinking about that thing she can do with her throat nope not at all) which is how he finds out his wife is a master at throwing cocktails and they get more than a little tipsy and he shows her how to fire the degun which is adorable and a little hot and they wind up slowdancing on the balcony to the Something for Kate cover of When the War is Over because I love that freaking song and I'm very attached to that mental image right now.

The second night, they know its all over by tomorrow and they spend a while talking in bed in the dark which is where I will probably make all of you cry with how lonely being the last one is for Megamind and it breaks Roxanne's heart a little to and they have the kind of thing that you just do not talk about in the light of day because if what happens in vegas stays in vegas then what happens that night is like the what happens in vegas stays in vegas of what happens in vegas stays in vegas.

Look it makes sense in context okay

They also both stay clothed so chill.

Sunday morning brings them to the foyer and its bittersweet and lovely and they just want to hold one another but they CANT because there is a PLAN and of course they shouldn’t stay married but oh shit the divorce desk doesn’t open until 11 and its only ten and their chauffer is waiting for them to take them home so shit, that is an issue but its fine because there's a form you can fill out and they will post you the divorce papers.

So great. They head to the airport and get on the plane and oh look there's yesterdays paper and why is there a photo of their wedding certificate on the front page?

And when was megamind going to tell Roxanne he was becoming a hero?

And Megamind had genuinely forgotten about that. Oops

So it turns out all of Metro City has been waiting for this day for YEARS. The paper is full of happy articles and letters to the editor saying we knew those crazy kids had it in them and Carlos has won a considerable amount of money in the pool and has taken his family to disney world.

And well they cant stay married obviously (can they?) but everyone is clearly expecting them to come home as a couple so sure they can fake it for a while before quietly separating except Megamind is not okay with the idea of Roxanne getting kidnapped by anyone else because no one else will be careful enough. And Roxanne is very unimpressed that the defenders council are trying to replace her with an official damsel. She is staying damsel thank you very much Gerry.

This may also become the fic where Roxanne finally sets up a damsel's union.

So they have a bit of a talk and yep practice kissing is definitely a thing they need to work on

a lot

that moment where the copilot walks in on them is a little embarrasing

but they land and oh look there's a car waiting for them to take them to

The Scott's are throwing them a party after all

So Roxanne gets dressed by Minion for the second time in a week which is where she finds out that "Oh sir was always so worried that if he ever found someone the tentacles would be a dealbreaker"

Tentacles

Huh

Where?

Prehensile or?

Oh for fucks sake Roxanne you dont even know what they're for stop it

No but seriously where are they?

Megamind on the other hand has just found out that Roxanne has a tattoo from Metro Man of all people and there is a very awkward/sexy/funny moment in a butler's pantry where Megamind finds out exactly where Roxanne's tattoo is and Roxanne has it confirmed exactly what those tentacles are for after all.

Great so add that to the list of things we're thinking about like his shoulders and his hands and his eyes instead of our feelings.

Roxanne takes great solace in her libido as it is far easier than arguing with her head or her heart.

Or she would be if she was getting laid.

And SURPRISE this party is not the intimate dinner they were promised but a full on party with Megamind's prison uncles set up on a webcam in a theatre which is a lovely cute scene and Roxanne is definitely getting baby stories out of these men.

Megamind uses her as a human shield. Its force of habit and has nothing to do with how much he's blushing at all.

And they get asked to make a speech and Megamind tells everyone exactly how much he loves his wife and Roxanne is almost in tears because what the hell where was this when it was just the two of them? He cant mean any of this clearly and wow that fucking hurts.

And then Roxanne's great aunt helen shows up because of course family was invited and she is an unpleasant woman at the best of times and Roxanne goes full "Fuck off Helen he's my husband and I love him"

and

shit

she does doesnt she?

Nope straight back to denial on that one. Cannot think about that right now

Because he clearly doesn't feel the same way or he'd have told her personally, not to a crowd of people. And Megamind thinks she was exaggerating because he’s also thinking where was this in vegas? And Roxanne is forcibly reminded she can't be the damsel if she's married to the hero so she is never going to see him again unless its for an interview which means she has to spend the rest of her life chasing him down in the van with fucking hal and ow ow ow

So they leave the party and Megamind drops her home only for Roxanne to find her apartment full of boxes as she is also being kicked out of her apartment as she is no longer acting damsel.

So she grabs a bag and tracks down the lair and oh hi husband can I live with you or not?

Hi wife yes please say (stay forever please stay forever) which is where we get the SECOND there was only one bed because half the lair was demolished in the last big battle and there is no space for another room right now and of course they have to keep sharing a room or Minion will get suspicious

this bed is much smaller than the giant orgy sized one in vegas

good thing they’re already getting used to waking up in one another’s arms

Roxanne does manage to ask for a small room to use as an office because she needs somewhere to cry and she's used to living alone but wow does this feel like moving in...

And that brings us to chapter 6ish?

#Rings #Megamind #fic plotting #give me all the feedback #fic by comittee #because there is no garuantee any of this is going to stay this way #but I needed to get it down #so I could keep writing #I will plot the rest out later #and go to bed at a reasonable hour tonight #ahahahahahahaha #bug is writing a thing

June 26, 2019: Solidarity, Brudis!

(previous play)

You can find more information about the authors, translators, content warning and additional information about the plays in the pinned post on our blog.

Attention! This play includes transgender topics. For more details see our interjection.

Wednesday, 11.36 am:

WhatsApp, David/Carlos:

David: Hi, what’s up? Are you up already? I just wanted to ask how things went with Kiki yesterday. Did you talk to her?

Carlos: Hi, brudi, yep, just woke up. Yep, everything was really relaxed with Kiki. She is completely convinced we’ll make it and all… it has calmed me down at least. And with you? Everything still clear in seventh heaven?

David: Sounds good! I’m happy for you! And maybe it will really work out that she can change to Berlin after a semester or two. I’m crossing my fingers! Here is everything fine. Matteo is playing Zelda right now – he probably took up the taste for it again last Sunday :-)

Carlos: Yes, let’s hope so! Ah, the little gambler, just be careful, now you won’t be able to get him away from the screen for a long time.

Carlos: I just wanted to say, I have read some more about dysphoria and all that. And in any case, I will shut up from now on, it is really different and dependent on mood and I don’t want to be the cause of you feeling miserable.

David: Ah, don’t worry – I have my ways to get him away from the screen ;-) :-P

David: That’s cool, that you’ve read some more. Thanks! But the offer still stands: when you have questions, just ask… I noticed in the last few days that being open about these things is not so bad as I thought earlier…

Carlos: Haha, nice, Brudi! *sends eggplant emoji*

Carlos: Ja, cool… I actually have some questions regarding those binder things. Can you wear your normal one to go swimming? And do they come in different sizes? And one more, but you don’t have to answer it because it has to do with dysphoria a bit: there are things you like to do, like sport… or sex… where you shouldn’t really wear a binder… isn’t that stupid? I mean, if you feel uneasy?

David: In theory swimming should go with a normal binder… but they don’t “bind” as well as swimming binders – they are made of weaker material and stretch more in the water. Yes, they come in different sizes, like shirt sizes, S, M, L and so on. Hmmmm… yes, that is rather stupid. I have to admit that I usually keep mine on during sport, but I’m not doing any competitive sport. For one or two hours it’s doable. And during sex… let’s just say that Matteo really tries to make things as easy as possible for me – I’m so super grateful to him for that! And in his presence, it’s getting better slowly – and if you tell anybody I’m talking to you about sex and Matteo I will unfortunately have to kill you…

Carlos: Haha, I’m not telling anybody. Brudi honour, man! So no killing, please. But yeah, damn, it sounds very complicated, all that stuff… and you think swimming with that thing is no fun, because people can really see it?

David: That, first of all, but also because I stand out from the rest so much… it’s not really normal for boys or men to go into the water with a shirt or a binder or a neoprene suit or any other item of clothing on top… people always somehow seem to notice and when you’re already uncertain about yourself, these extra looks bother you extremely much.

Carlos: Yeah, that’s understandable… but I still hope that you won’t let yourself be held back by those silly things… What does such a swimming binder look like by the way?

David: I hope it will be easier for me to overcome it on our holiday, because we will be amongst ourselves and you all know the situation anyway, but I can’t promise anything… we’ll see. *sends a link of the swimming binder he has ordered and adds* That’s what they look – I mean, that’s the one I ordered.

Carlos: Ah, okay, I see. Yeah, so, as said, if I can do something or not do something, just say so, yeah?

David: Will do, thanks!

---------------------------------------------------------------

WhatsApp, Matteo/Carlos, 12.15 pm:

Carlos: Hey, brudi, mate, I have an idea! But I wanted to ask you first what you think about it and it has to stay a secret in any case, so not a word to David! Act normally! I know he’s sitting next to you right now.

Matteo: Haha, mate, act normally. You’re funny. How can you even read a message abnormally? Anyway, what’s up?

Carlos: I’ve just talked to David about these swimming binders. Or, well, actually about binders in general, but I got an idea about the swimming binders…

Matteo: Yeah, right, about binders… *sends eggplant emoji*

Carlos: In any case, he said that the most stupid part about it, for him, is that with his binder he stands out so much from all other men who are swimming without one. I understand completely. Just imagine if we suddenly had to wear a swim suit or something… Anyway, so I suddenly had the idea, what if we all order one of those things? Then he wouldn’t be alone. Do you think he’d like that or rather not? I mean, I don’t want him to get even more dysphoria because of it. You know him better than I do…

Matteo: Mate, who are you and what have you done to Carlos? That is a super idea, brudi! Truly! I think he would like that. Like, obviously dysphoria is somehow depending on the day and all that, but I really think that would help him a lot.

Carlos: (Matteo: Yeah, right, about binders… *sends eggplant emoji*) Really, man… no idea how you get to *sends 3 eggplant emojis*… you really think only about one thing, you pig!

Carlos: Yes, alright – I’ll make a group with the boys…

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WhatsApp, Matteo/Jonas/Abdi/Carlos, 12.42 pm:

Carlos: Hey, brudis, I have an idea for our holiday and I wanted to ask if you all wanna be part of the plan. I’ve chatted with David about the holiday again and then more precisely about swimming and dysphoria and that stuff and he said, the most stupid part for him is that he has to wear a swimming binder, because he is the only one and then people stare at him. So, I was thinking if it wouldn’t be cool if maybe all of us would wear one during our holiday… so that he wouldn’t be alone with one… What do you think? Are you in? Or do you think it’s a stupid idea?

Jonas: How do you even know what dysphoria is?

Abdi: I’m in! What are swimming binders?

Matteo: :-) Swimming binders are binders one can swim with ;-)

Carlos: @ Jonas: Haha, I can read, mate!

Abdi: Haha. What are binders?

Matteo: You wear binders on your chest, they are tight and press everything down.

Jonas: I think it’s a super idea! We really should do it. Where can you get those things and how much do they cost?

Abdi: Ah, shit. But makes sense, yes…

Carlos: *sends the link David has sent him earlier* This is the one David has ordered! Would be nice if all the guys had exactly the same, or what?

Matteo: Weird.

Jonas: What’s weird?

Matteo: That Carlos knows which binder my boyfriend has ordered.

Jonas: <3 <3 <3

Matteo: What?

Jonas: You said “my boyfriend”.

Matteo: Idiot!

Abdi: Anyway, I have googled that stuff just now and it is really weird. It won’t be that we all suddenly can’t breathe or so?

Carlos: Well, David says, only after 8 hours or so does it become hard and painful because of air and back pains and stuff. And when doing sport or lots of movement. But we won’t be swimming for 8 hours in one day, right… and on top of that: solidarity, brudis! If David has to endure it, then we can too!

Jonas: Well, I think it’s really cool you’re so interested in all that, Carlos! *thumbs up emoji*

Jonas: Are we ordering together or everyone for himself?

Carlos: Everyone for himself. We all have Prime anyway.

Abdi: Will do!

Matteo: Uh, no… somebody should order for me too and also take it to Heidesee for me, please.

Jonas: I can order for you and pack it too, no problem!

Carlos: Yes, cool, guys! This will be great! We just have to discuss how it would be best to show them to him or something…

Matteo: Thanks, Jonas! *thumbs up emoji*

Abdi: I think it’s really cool we’re doing this. All the boys for David!

Matteo: :-) Super!

Jonas: Or wait… all boys? What about Alex then? Shouldn’t we ask him too? I don’t want him to feel left out or something…

Carlos: I’m not asking him!

Abdi: Oops, we completely forgot about him.

Matteo: I’m not so close to him either. And I have to keep to option to possibly kill him open. But you know him, because of Abi chacker clan, right?

Jonas: Well, if it’s okay for you, then I’ll ask him… would be cool somehow, if really all the boys would participate…

Carlos: If he even wants to participate… yeah, fine by me – if we must…

Abdi: Yeah, ask him. All would be better indeed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

WhatsApp, Jonas/Alex, 13.24 pm:

Jonas: Hi Alex, the guys and I have come up with something for David. And we, through me then, wanted to ask you if you wanted to participate? David has to wear a binder and during holidays a swimming binder so he can get into the lake, but he feels a bit uneasy about it, because he stands out so much with it. We thought that we simply all could order one and go swimming with it and then David won’t be alone. You don’t have to do it, of course, I don’t really know how close you are to David, but I just thought I’d ask.

Alex: Oh, man… group things like that… not really my thing, to be honest. Would it be okay to think about and decide tomorrow?

Jonas: Yeah, of course. And as I said, no stress. You really don’t have to.

Alex: What does such a swimming binder look like? Do you have a link or something, so I can look at it a bit more in detail?

Jonas: Yep, one moment. *sends the same link* That’s the one we’re getting.

Alex: Thanks! I’ll think about it……

spontaneity

for @cecilos-week free day! yeah!

A date which is also something of a culinary adventure. Everyone is fine, even when they maybe shouldn’t be. Although, it’s... probably not that toxic. Google wasn’t completely clear with me!

- - - - - - - - -

Cecil burst into their apartment, and called into the house, "Carlos, come on! We have to go to the mall!"

Carlos called back, "What? We do? I- okay, hold on for just a second."

So Cecil held on, leaning through the open door, half-hanging off the doorknob with his other hand braced against the wall. When Carlos appeared at the other end of the entry hall, Cecil tried to throw himself into his husband's arms. He misjudged the distance, and discovered this error by banging his hip into the hall table.

"Oh, okay, ow-"

"Oh, sweetie!" Carlos caught Cecil's arm, and one hand hovered by what was probably an imminent bruise. "Are you alright?"

"Yep. Totally fine now." Cecil said. With his face pressed into Carlos' neck, it was true. Nuzzling, delighting in the pleased little gasp his attentions drew; yes, he was completely fine. He'd reached his destination, one way or the other. "But you know what would really make me feel better?"

"Hmm, let me think. I'm a scientist, so I'm pretty good at it," Carlos said. "A trip to the mall?"

"Yes, exactly!"

"I mean, sure. But why? What's at the mall?"

"Hey, I know you were listening, because you texted me about it! You know, I was talking about how the mall food court finally reopened, and they've got a new bubble tea place - Turmoil - and then you texted me that you had never tried bubble tea and were interested, and Carlos. Carlos! You have got to try bubble tea. I can't believe you've never tried bubble tea, it's like, everywhere nowadays."

"Except… for… Night Vale. Until today," Carlos mused, raising a hesitant index finger. "You also said this was the first bubble tea place in Night Vale, so when did you-"

They looked at each other. Cecil shook his head quickly, and Carlos echoed the movement a second after, and said, "You know what? Never mind."

"Yeah, um. Thanks. Um. But it is… it is delicious! So I thought… we could go?"

"Sure! Like I said, sure." Carlos smiled, and kissed his husband on the cheek. "I would love to get bubble tea with you!"

Which was how they ended up at the Night Vale mall food court at eight in the evening, surrounded by off-duty surveillance moms and teens trying to avoid homework.

"Orange milk tea. And then... fruit jelly? Or silica gel? Hmm…" Cecil tapped his chin. "Oh! What about both?"

The cashier shrugged. "You've got to pay for both."

Cecil snorted. "It's forty cents and a baby tooth. Not even my baby tooth. Give me both. Please." He turned to Carlos, and kissed his temple, just because he was there. "What about you?"

"Boba is traditional, right? I want to try it the way it is meant to be experienced. The first time, at least. So, boba."

"Uh. What kind of tea?"

"Oh. Lavender, please."

The cashier put the orders in, and Cecil passed over the cash with the baby teeth folded tidily in the center. They watched the only other employee make the drinks; Carlos examined all of the equipment involved, leaning with one hand on the countertop and the other swinging in Cecil's, while Cecil skimmed Facebook in between glances. He hummed an absent tune, the only guiding rhythm was the pace of Carlos' motion. Carlos oohed and hmmed as the employee plopped the teeth from a different customer into the cup, and sealed them.

He wondered if the teeth would do anything. He asked Cecil, "Hey, they put the baby teeth in the drinks. Does that serve some flavor-enhancing or ritualistic purpose?"

"Yes," Cecil said confidently. And then: "No idea what it is, though."

"Oh. Okay, save yours, please. I want to bring the teeth to the lab tomorrow and hook them up with tiny electrodes to machines, so. I'm going to do that."

"Ooh, sounds neat. Let me know what you find out, okay?"

The cashier dropped the drinks off on the counter, and Cecil slid his phone away. "Here, bunny, let me get that. Do you want to grab a seat?"

"Sure."

Carlos grabbed straws, and a couple of napkins, and followed Cecil to a cozy table for two behind a potted plant. During the day, it would have had an eager rotation of spies and government agents snapping it up, but there were so few people around to surveil, most of the officials had drifted to the edge of the food court. They took pictures of shoppers walking past, and Cecil and Carlos had a quiet spot to themselves.

Carlos punctured the plastic over the tea in one neat movement. Cecil leaned on the table, resting his chin on his entwined fingers.

"So? What do you think?"

Carlos laughed. "You have to let me drink it to give my opinion on it. It can only go in that order, scientifically speaking, if you want accurate information. And I know you do."

"Uh-huh!" Cecil bobbed his head, communicating a remarkable amount of interest in the gesture. He tilted his head to one side, which might have seemed exaggerated to onlookers - one of the agents turned around, and snapped a quick shot of them. But this only conveyed the real intensity of Cecil's interest in Carlos' opinion.

Carlos took a sip, hmmed, and then took a longer drink. "Interesting. They use artificial, chemical-based lavender flavoring, but all flavors and also most of the world are some kind of chemical, and beside, artificiality is a statement of origin, not reality. So it's real lavender flavor, it's just that humans made it. It's a little strong, but really good otherwise. Can I try some of yours? You can have some of mine."

Carlos pushed his tea toward Cecil, while Cecil stabbed his own open, demonstrating a flash of the same angry focus he used to make coffee, and placed it even with Carlos'.

They took each other's drinks at the same moment, smiled, and made a sort of reverse-toast.

Carlos said, "Cheers, Ceec!"

Cecil said it, but actually in reverse, easily maneuvering the vowels and consonants the wrong way around. It left Carlos blinking, dazed. He put a hand to his ear.

"Careful with that, babe."

Cecil swallowed quickly, and winced. "Oops. Sorry, I got excited."

"Well, don't apologize for that! For being excited. I love it when you're excited, but. Maybe do be a little careful, sometimes, with how you express that excitement, like - high fives? Great. Kisses? Even better. And most vocalizations that you care to make, because I love your voice, too!" Carlos swirled the drink in his hand, musing, watching the fruit-and-silica mix bounce at the bottom of the cup. "Indescribable utterances? Well, there are times and places for them, too, but probably not the food court at the local mall."

"Yes, dear." Cecil agreed innocently. He offered Carlos his tea back, and left his hand where it was, for his husband to take. He leaned in. "Well, if you're alright with kisses…"

Carlos grinned, and slid the drinks out of the way. Their lips met over the center of the table, and Cecil caught the lapels of Carlos' lab coat, pulling him deeper for just an instant. Cecil settled back in his chair. Carlos hovered, once again stunned, this time, giggling breathlessly.

"Yes. You've got the right idea, Cecil. Scientifically speaking, considering, you know, the laws of force and of - of thermodynamics, that was much better."

OPE Owen 😳

Ooh- oOP

Is he dying or something?

Dang it you can't end it there DD:<

OOHHH YEP HE IS

Oop 👀👀👀👀

Also ahhh his brother 😌😌😌👀👀👀

AHH JUDD

It's okay we're gonna be fine :')

Everything's gonna be fiiinee :'DDDDD

Just

Fine :))

Anyway!! That's it for the final thoughts, now time for the. . .

REVIEW

Yes, I know it's a week late, ignore it xdd

First of all! Owen, obviously. Well, maybe not obviously for him being first, but nonetheless. Okay, so, a) my boy. Well, not really, but, yaknow lol. Anyway, b) my dude. Get help. Like I know you ARE, but still xdd. Idk get more help XD. Glad you're dealing with your daddy issues tho. Or sorry for your loss. I ain't reading all that. XDD I'm kidding, but that is a little bit how I act about Owen lol. Anyway!! Seriously though, I am proud of him for getting help :). And honestly like, seemingly stupid fears? Relatable, man. But the clown (most his adamant denial of it lol) is still funny xD. Anyway, I am very eyes for the next episode 👀👀. It will be interesting 🤔🤔 :))).

Next! Grace and Judd (you know what's coming last lol) :D. I love them SOOO much!! Honestly I felt bad for them lol, I got the annoyance xD. But, I'm glad Grace didn't have to break it to Dave the hard way. She doesn't deserve that xd. That scene was hilarious though XD. Seriously, I did feel bad for him. Honestly, he's been working for, what was it, 8 years, and never lost a caller? Dang. Wow. Like, yeah, that must hurt xdd. Sometimes when I don't get 100% on a grade I'm kind of glad, because it takes a lot of the pressure off of my future grades. Not all of it, but a fair amount. Obviously they're not the same thing, but, you know :). This could help for his future, but I mostly mean that the longer it goes on, the harder it is. And even if I don't like him much, I do see some similarities between him and I :D.

Also Charlie you're adorable and I love you SO MUCH :DDDD 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 <3333333333.

Although I did feel bad for Grace and Judd since they didn't get to see her first steps lol. Just, rip, honestly xdd.

Lastly!! Tarlos 🥰🥰🥰. Lol, obviously. I mean, knowing me, yeah, they'd probably be last or first xD. But, anyway!! I love them so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰. It was honestly just a silly storyline lol. But so sweet!!! It just shows that they can have honestly kind of stupid, just random off the cuff storylines, and it still shows and loving they are 🥰🥰🥰. It was hilarious and cute and I just love them a lot lol :'DD. Good tears, obviously :)). Also, that scene of TK trying to sweetly half seduce Carlos to capture Lou was absolutely adorable and fantastic and hilarious XDDDD. I will never get it out of my head lol. Their entire storyline this episode was just great :DDD 😃👍🥰🥰. Also Carlos looking for Loouuuuu 😭😭😭😭😭. All that effort (and TK's little like "oh okay" after going "have we been robbed ಠ_ಠ" like lol xDD besides the adorable fact that Carlos tore the apartment up that much looking for Lou that it looked like they had been robbed - yes 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰), it was so cute, and so SWEET too, I just love him my guy 🥰🥰🥰. I guess you're my guy lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ :))).

Also, on a related note, I really hope we get some TK content next episode :DD. Not that we haven't been getting a lot of content for him, we obviously have, or that he never has content or whatever, but just because it's all about father's and sons ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Like, clearly, with Judd and Wyatt (AH. I love in fear xdd :')) ), and Owen and his dad. I'm just saying, him and Owen as the father son relationship are kinda the main thing of the series, at least for that specific relationship, and we haven't scenes with them in a while ://. Although TK watching him during the clown call was cute and sweet and nice 🥰🥰🥰. But still, is just want to see some scenes between them :)).

Overall, I really loved the episode!!! Some really cute moments all around, great calls, despite a sad one - I guess we get a detach in each 9-1-1 this week :(( -, and it was honestly really funny :D. I'm so scared but so excited for the next one :DDD :)).

So yeah!! I loved this episode, and I'm excited for the next one :). This has been my review of. . .

9-1-1: Lone Star, Season 3, Episode 15: Down to Clown.

It was great! I'm sure the next episode will be awesome :)). Next time I'll be here for my review of. . .

9-1-1: Lone Star, Season 3, Episode 16: Shift-Less.

See you then!!!
