Fluorescein | the experiment

Well, you see, making fluorescein isn't as easy as snapping your fingers and voilà! It requires a bit of scientific know-how and experimentation. In this particular experiment, I attempted to make fluorescein (with @jasmin-k). Unfortunately, the first try didn't go as planned due to a shortage of equipment and having to make do with whatever we had at hand. But hey, that's the beauty of science—it's all about learning and trying again. Now, let me break it down for you. To make fluorescein, we need a few key ingredients that are always the same, regardless of whether we succeed or not:

Phthalic anhydride

Resorcinol

ZnCl2

In the first step, I mixed ten millimoles of phthalic anhydride and twenty millimoles of resorcinol in a two neck flask. I also added a magnetic stirrer to ensure everything blends together nicely. Now, the crucial part is achieving a uniform mixture, and for that, we need to heat things up in an oil bath at a temperature of 180 degrees Celsius. Unfortunately, I didn't have silicone oil, which is ideal for reaching that temperature. So, we improvised and thought using a sand bath might do the trick. It wasn't perfect, though, as the magnetic stirrer didn't work properly, and the mixing wasn't as uniform as we hoped. But hey, I'm not one to give up easily!

Once the substances were heated and combined, it was time to introduce twenty millimoles of zinc chloride into the mix, adding it slowly through one of the flask necks. Now, we let the substances mingle at the same temperature for a good 45 to 90 minutes. Patience is key!

When they turned a deep red colour, I switched off the heater and let the temperature drop to ninety degrees Celsius. At this point, I added twenty millilitres of water and one millilitre of concentrated HCl. Now, here's an important note: toxic vapours are produced during this process, so it's crucial to carry it out in a well-ventilated space or under a hood. Safety first, always!

To ensure complete dissolution of the substances, I placed the solution back on the heater. Once that was done, I filtered the solution, washed it with water, and finally, dried it in an oven.

Now, here's where things took a turn. The first attempt didn't yield any precipitate, which meant starting over from scratch. But I didn't let that dampen my spirits.

For the second try, I used an oil bath with silicone oil, which provided better results. After going through all the previous steps, it was time for the purification stage.

In this stage, we have to make a solution containing NaOH and HCl.

After adding them (dissolved in NaOH solution and precipitating with dilute HCl), filter the solution several times and wash it with water. Then, dry it in an oven at one hundred degrees Celsius.

And there you have it (I will show the results in the post I'm going to make in the future. So, stay tuned)! Fluorescein is ready to shine its vibrant colours. Science can be a bumpy road, but with determination and a bit of improvisation, we can make amazing discoveries. Allons-y!

[mirror-to-the-past]

So, I stopped liveblogging after a bit, because I just got absolutely lost in the EVERYTHING that was the OMORI Concert, but holy SHIT. What did everyone think of it? Any favorite pieces???

As I previously mentioned, "Trouble NEVER/ALWAYS" leading into "You Were Wrong. Go Back." was NUTS. The way that the orchestra made it so hype, you'd really think it was the introduction of an evil galactic overlord, rather than some guy throwing a tantrum after his girlfriend broke up with him, haha!

I can not emphasize enough how their rendition of "Trees..." tremendously altered my perception of the song. I liked it a lot before, really, but it wasn't particularly moving to me- just peaceful. This version of the song was so. wow. I struggle to find words for it. Same with "Sugar Star Planetarium" right afterwards. Fucking. Gorgeous.

Also putting "Just Leave Me Alone" and the rest of which I shall now call the Hooligans Suite, as they meshed it together in such an epic and cohesive way, after "Where We Used to Play" was just diabolical. I FELL OUT OF MY SEAT I WAS SO SURPRISED BY THE LOUDNESS, LOL. Speaking of the "Hooligans Suite" the guitarists just. URGH I LOVE THEM. This concert was way more metal than I expected, and I LOVED IT. The entire "Just Leave Me Alone"-"Cram It Wad"-"It Means Everything" was insanely epic, I felt like my heart stopped. Just like Space Boyfriend's theme, using the other Hooligans pieces as buildup to the main boss theme was so, so good. Did Aubrey and her gang such justice, like. I just felt so happy for my girl.

And then they put "Home for Flowers (Empty)" right afterwards, lol. If anyone's curious about how I looked after that sudden mood shift:

I'm now thoroughly on board of loving World's End Valentine now, because the instrumentation hurts my head less now, with this version, haha.

I am ADMITTEDLY a bit bummed that they didn't perform "Poems in the Fog" and "Forest Frenzy," as I can visualize Music Engine's style for those pieces so well, and I know it would be soooo beautifulll... but oh well...

I'm plesantly surprised that "Swirly 1000x" made the cut!! Very underrated piece, only used for one fight but godDAMN does it hit hard. The guitar 🎸🎸oncccee agaiiin. Crazy.

Also I knowwww it's not the most amazing piece in the world, but the jazz section of The Last Resort could have opened so cool with "Hanging With the Boys" right before that, but it's alright, I'm not gonna lose sleep over it.

The way I laughed when they jumpscared us with the organ for the first time because GoldenVengence was important enough as to demand the need for such a stately instrument, lol!

Can we talk about the clarinet in "Underwater Highway" because oooooghhh bleeeeh dead upon impact. It was so wonderful.... I love that piece already, but they made the descending notes so magical, and tranisitioned into "Squall" so beautifully.

You know what I AM gonna lose sleep over? THEY DIDN'T INCLUDE "H20:HCL" in the underwater section!! That piece is so beautiful... 😭😭

I think I blacked out and entered a trance-like state with everything from "See You Tomorrow" to "Truth." Somewhere within that period, wine and a tissue box appeared magically at my side, lmfao. Small comment in the midst of everything else that was That Section of the concert, but I'm so glad they kept "Gone," because that piece is so necessary for me, within that whole climactic sequence. It just oozes catharsis, it HAS to be included, no matter what.

But yeah anyway, "See You Tomorrow" and "Crossroads" just emanates the warmth of evening in summer. Those songs are laced with something magical, because I can see the orange of sunset so palpably in my mind's eye whenever I hear those pieces. Sweat on my skin, old t-shirts with fruit juice stains on them, other kids shrieking in the streets, being afraid of my neighbor's loud dog, getting pricked by thorns after walking into the forest- that's what those songs sound like to me. I don't get too nostalgic for the past much, but those songs make me feel like I'm a kid again. This rendition captured them perfectly.

Also wow, Basil, I see you and "A Home for Flowers (Daisy)" in the orchestral version, sounding like you jumped directly out of a Ghibli movie. I see you. T_T

Ha-ha-ha when the lights dimmed during "You Must Carry On" I didn't start freaking out at all..ha-ha-ha. What? I would never break out into goosepimples and jitters. Ha-ha-ha. Full body shakes who? I don't know her.

When "OMORI" started playing, a few others in the house who had never played the game and knew little to nothing about it stopped talking amongst themselves and came to watch the TV. It's THAT POIGNANT. I'll be honest, I love love love "DUET" as much as the next OMORI fan, but the song that makes me cry upon hearing it every time was never DUET, it was this one. DUET is a warm resurgance and appreciation for the things left behind, with a slight twinge of regret. "OMORI" is just pure, raw pain. And the string section didn't let me forget ittt hahahaha.

Tears were shed, people (me) were shaking, etc. etc. THANK YOU KAWAI KOTA for your amazing work in acting as Sunny's role amonst the violinists and concertmaster, your solo violin work and passion fully recaptured my feeling of playing the game for the first time, biting my nails with anticipation and heartache at whatever was happening next. Same goes to Kawamura Noriko for her work on piano, just... aaaaaaa!

Also bo en jumpscare!!! I love and respect that one individual in the audience who yelled "hands...!" during "My Time." It's honestly cruel for live orchestra to have the rule of "be silent during the performance!" because I would've had a vein popping if I was there from wanting to sing along so bad. I MEAN. IT'S *THE* SONG. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO SING ALONG TO IT. Lucky for me, I was at home, and got to tipsily sing along to the lyrics from muscle memory, lmao.

I was expecting the choir that I saw filing into view to be for "My Time" that ended up playing later anyway- "Tee-hee Time" was a welcome surprise and amazingly epic!

Anyway that's about it from the top of mt head at the moment!! Please yell at me about what you thought of the concert- I stayed up late, went to sleep, got up again, and am still vibrating about it, lol! This has been the best part of my year so far- no joke.

ALSO WOOO OMORI MANGA. Can't wait for ENG translations- if this adaptation gives Sunny more explicit character voice, I'm not going to shut up about it ever. I won't shut up about it anyway, but I'll be not-shut-upping about it even more.

Setting the Mood

Lighting plays a multifaceted role in our lives, affecting the way we interact with our surroundings. It has huge practical and aesthetic influence and affects our mental and physical health, guiding mood and behaviour. Exposure to natural light can reduce eye strain and fatigue and stabilise the circadian rhythm - a system that uses lighting cues to influence chemical-releasing processes in the brain. However, our response to light extends beyond the natural light we receive...   

The field of lighting design has always invited a uniquely dynamic degree of experimentation. Artificial light has expanded our possibilities as we are no longer bound by the diurnal cycle. We utilise artificial lighting in our homes, setting mood by gradually changing the tonality and hue as the sun rises and sets.  

After the first incandescent bulbs were invented in the 1870s, the radiant world of artificial lighting was born and quickly adapted by designers and artisans within a few decades, with an extraordinary application of creativity and artistry. Art Nouveau embraced the electric light, applying their signature fluid style, inspired by the natural world, and translated into stained glass lamps with sinuous metalwork. Tiffany Studios and others created colourful stained glass lampshades, while in the early years of the 20th century, Mariano Fortuny created incredibly sophisticated pieces that seemed decades ahead of their time.  

Poul Henningsen was an expert in lighting theory and revolutionised the lighting design field, inventing mood lighting in the late 1920s when he produced his iconic, avant-garde, lamp series. Scientifically rigorous analysis of light refraction was applied - layered shades distributed the light providing diffused illumination. Henningsen combined functionality with beauty, but his philosophy went beyond aesthetics, often addressing social and environmental issues. He believed that good lighting design should improve the quality of life for people by creating pleasant environments.  

Henningsen’s divergent intellect had a profound effect on the lighting design industry, inspiring designers’ explosive creativity within the field. Today, the impact of lighting is revered to enhance experience, consequently, lighting products are greatly consumed as the right lighting promotes the aesthetics of products and spaces we inhabit.  

Contemporary emphasis on lighting has contributed to modern living and design through more than just aesthetics. Environmental concerns have led energy efficiency and sustainability to align with modern design principles. This has caused LEDs to be widely adopted due to their smaller carbon footprint than conventional incandescent or compact fluorescent lights. Also, eco-friendly materials and production practices have majorly influenced design considerations.  

Smart Lighting systems have changed our interactivity with lighting: automatic lighting uses motion sensors to control lights and the Internet of Things has enabled lighting systems to interact with smart devices, both creating a convenient and seamless living experience. Human-Centric Lighting explores the physiological and psychological impact of light on human health and performance. Considering circadian theories, it produces varying intensities, colours, and temperatures of light to mimic the diurnal cycle. Integrating daylight into architectural design harnesses sunlight so its natural patterns become evident to its inhabitants. HCL is tailored to optimise visibility and comfort: intense, white light is produced throughout the day, encouraging attentiveness, while warm, dim light, in the evening promotes relaxation for sleep. To maintain visual interest, different light levels are used throughout space, and flicker is eliminated as it is distracting and causes headaches.

Allergy Misery No More: Is Allegra 30mg the Answer? Buy and Find Relief!

Are you tired of sneezing, itching, and suffering from allergy symptoms that seem to never end? Allergies can turn even the most beautiful days into a nightmare, leaving you feeling miserable and drained. But fear not, relief may be just a tablet away. Introducing Allegra 30mg, a potential solution to your allergy woes. In this article, we explore the benefits of Allegra 30mg (fexofenadine hcl 30 mg) and how you can conveniently purchase it online from a daily pharmacy store in the USA.

Understanding Allergies and their Impact

Allergies are a common health concern affecting millions of people worldwide. They occur when your immune system reacts to substances that are usually harmless, such as pollen, pet dander, or dust mites. This immune response triggers a range of uncomfortable symptoms, including sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and skin rashes. For some, allergies can be a minor inconvenience, while for others, they can significantly impact daily life and overall well-being.

Enter Allegra 30mg: How It Works

Allegra 30mg contains the active ingredient fexofenadine hydrochloride, an antihistamine that helps alleviate allergy symptoms. Histamines are chemicals released by your immune system during an allergic reaction, causing the unpleasant symptoms you experience. Fexofenadine blocks the effects of histamines, providing relief from sneezing, itching, and other discomforts.

One of the key advantages of Allegra 30mg is that it is a non-drowsy formula. Unlike some other antihistamines, it is designed to provide relief without causing drowsiness, allowing you to go about your day without feeling lethargic or unfocused.

Benefits of Allegra 30mg:

Non-Drowsy Relief: Allegra 30mg is formulated to provide effective symptom relief without causing drowsiness, making it suitable for use during work or other daily activities.

24-Hour Protection: A single dose of Allegra 30mg can provide relief for up to 24 hours, reducing the need for frequent dosing throughout the day.

Fast-Acting: Many users report experiencing relief shortly after taking Allegra 30mg, so you don't have to wait long to start feeling better.

Minimal Side Effects: Fexofenadine is generally well-tolerated, and side effects are usually mild and transient.

Convenient Online Purchase in the USA

Now that you're eager to experience the benefits of Allegra 30mg for yourself, you'll be pleased to know that you can easily purchase it online from a reputable daily pharmacy store in the USA. Online shopping offers a hassle-free way to access the relief you need without the need to leave your home.

When purchasing Allegra 30mg online, be sure to follow these steps for a smooth experience:

Choose a Reputable Online Pharmacy: Look for an online pharmacy with a good reputation and positive customer reviews.

Consult a Healthcare Professional: While Allegra 30mg is available over-the-counter, it's still a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.

Place Your Order: Add Allegra 30mg to your online shopping cart and proceed to checkout. Make sure to provide accurate shipping information.

Complete the Purchase: Follow the prompts to provide payment information and complete your purchase.

Wait for Delivery: Once your order is confirmed, sit back and wait for your Allegra 30mg to be delivered right to your doorstep.

Final Thoughts

Allergies no longer have to be a source of misery and discomfort. Allegra 30mg (fexofenadine hcl 30 mg) offers a convenient and effective solution to help you find relief from allergy symptoms. With its non-drowsy formula and 24-hour protection, you can take control of your allergies and enjoy life to the fullest. Take the first step towards a sneeze-free, itch-free existence by purchasing Allegra 30mg from a trusted daily pharmacy store in the USA. Embrace a life without allergy misery – buy Allegra 30mg today and experience the difference for yourself!

Green Tea Cleansing Mask: The Best Way to Make Your Skin Glow

Introduction

You've heard about the benefits of green tea and have probably even tried the soothing drink, but what about using it on your skin? Green tea is known for its antioxidant properties and can be used in all kinds of beauty products—even facemasks! There are many different ways to prepare homemade masks made with green tea. Not only can they help hydrate and nourish your skin, but they also provide extra healing power thanks to their antioxidant content. So why not give one a try today?

Why is green tea so good for your face?

Green tea is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, which means it can help protect your skin from environmental damage. Green tea also has natural skin brightening properties, which is great for those with dull or unevenly colored complexions. And because green tea is rich in vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, vitamin E, riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine HCL (B6), calcium, iron and magnesium—it's full of antioxidants that will help neutralize free radicals in the body while keeping you healthy on the inside as well!

How to make a green tea cleansing mask:

Making a green tea cleansing mask is easy, and you can do it at home. All you need is:

·         1 tsp of green tea powder (or 1 bag)

·         1 tbsp honey

·         2 tbsp yogurt

·         1 tbsp milk or yoghurt

With so many different ways to prepare a green tea mask, there's sure to be a recipe that works for you!

Green tea mask is one of the easiest and most versatile face masks that you can create in your kitchen. All you need is some green tea, honey and coconut oil. If you want to add a little extra something to your mask, throw in some avocado—it's an excellent source of vitamins A, B1 and C, as well as essential fatty acids that keep skin smooth and supple. And if you're feeling particularly adventurous (or just really hungry), try using chocolate syrup instead of honey!

Here are some other ways to prepare this recipe:

·         Add 1 tablespoon of raw cacao powder for an antioxidant boost; cacao contains flavonoids which protect against free radical damage caused by stress or pollution exposure.

·         For oily skin types: add ½ teaspoon baking soda followed by ½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar to the mix before applying it on your face (this will help balance out any oils). You may also want to consider adding more coconut oil into your mixture since it has natural antibacterial properties that can help clear up acne-prone skin issues!

Conclusion

In conclusion, green tea is a great ingredient for both cleansing masks and moisturizing masks. It's also very versatile, which means you can use it in a variety of ways to give yourself the best results possible. Whether you're looking for something simple like an exfoliating scrub or something more complex like an antioxidant serum, there's something here that will work just right!

 • nice

 • okay so asparagus and her tits have been together since the day God placed her in her mom's womb

 • asparagus was born wid tits, while her tits were borne on her (Shakespeare level shit)

 • they have been together thru thick and thin (bras), her tits tried not to jiggle when jumped, while she made sure she wore nice undergarments to make them feel beautiful😌 (queen)

 • a major fight happened

 • which left a huge scar on her heart

 • heh u geddit?? like scar on her...chest cuz..like boobs are...on chest hahaha im funny as fuck

Upon Your Existence (3)

Ch. 1 | Ch. 2 | Ch. 3

Pairings: Jeon Jungkook x Reader (ft. the rest of BTS)

Genre: Science Fantasy, Angst, Apocalypse Au

Words: 7K

Description: …and so they just meet each other in these stories written inside these worlds built in their minds. Of course some will be sad, and others happy, but that’s just the way the universe is…chaotic, imperfect, but magnificently beautiful.  

You’ll always remember his eyes, a pair of dark obsidian orbs, cloudy and unreadable to many but to you they were always crystal clear like the polycrystalline structure of black diamonds.

“Hurry, we need to go!” He beckons urgently as you remained huddled in the corner of your bedroom closet, arms wrapped around your legs and chin resting on the caps of your knees.

“Where’s mommy and daddy?” You peer up at your older brother, eyes wide and stricken with fear.

It was already dark outside. The bright glow of blue and red lights flicker through the glass windows, ricocheting off the walls of the room your parents once read you bedtime stories in. You can hear the voices of police officers and military personnel through the loud speakers, advising everyone to evacuate the city.  

“They’re waiting for us, come on.” Yoongi responds more softly, flashing you a tender smile, one that you have witnessed more than anyone else, giving you more than enough strength to latch on to his extended hand.

You were just nine years old when news of the first outbreak was broadcasted over the television. At the time, it had not occurred to you how strange it all was, or perhaps it did, but it was all too confusing to even begin questioning any of it. You knew nothing about viruses or the spread of diseases in general, but after moving to the designated “safe haven” for your district and continuing your education through your teens, some things have naturally come to light.

Like back in high school chemistry, when your teacher demonstrated the effects of acid on protein to show students how you could go blind if it got in your eye. It was simply to remind everyone to wear goggles, but you’ll never forget the way the drop of HCl seared the egg white, making the fluid bubble up and solidify instantly. You imagine the virus doing the same to human flesh, only with a more complicated mechanism that had less to do with altering the structure of existing proteins and more to do with actually changing gene expression.

It only takes one person. One mutation. One strand of viral DNA to contaminate it all.

It almost sounded too easy, and though the official announcement stated the virus originated in the jungle off the coast, countless people had suspected it was actually developed by the government, a biological weapon gone awry. It wasn’t until over a decade later that it became quite clear, though still unofficial since the elite would never admit to such a horrendous act publicly, that everything was more or less planned as a means to control the population.

So no, the virus did not entail the end of the world. The world government had actually done a pretty job controlling it. How could they not since they planned it all anyways? But of course, if the world wants to end, it’ll find a way to end.

That, you had also learned through a news broadcast.  

“Karma” Hoseok exhales, twisting the key and turning off the engine.

“Hoseok, it’s not Karma if the top 1% still survive.” Yoongi mumbles, stepping out of the passenger door and stretching out his back.  

“The biggest fuck you would be if the comet just disintegrates right before it strikes.” Hoseok scoffs. “If only…”

You ponder the possibility of this all being a false positive. “Maybe it’ll miss Earth, and everyone will have evacuated the planet for no reason at all.” It’s a joke, but not the funny kind. You know it’s impossible, but you didn’t really say it for the purpose of anyone agreeing with you or even refuting the statement, considering the nonexistent possibility.

“Maybe…” Hoseok exhales, not entirely paying attention to what he was even responding to but rather just blankly gazing at the open field with its tall grasses swaying in the wind.

Yoongi remains silent. He has been the whole trip for the most part, and in a way, his nonchalance was peaceful and reassuring as it had always been for you growing up.

But this is it. This is where you part ways.

It’s a strange feeling, really. You’ve always imagined this moment to be more emotionally overwhelming, saying goodbye to your brother forever and all. He was the only person you’d ever really trusted, and the only other person who has felt like the closest thing to home, a place that never really existed, and even if it did, it won’t for long. Maybe habituation, or months of convinced acceptance has left you numb, or maybe it's the effect of building something so much up in your head that the actual experience doesn’t live up to what you’ve expected all this time.

“Are you sure?” Yoongi’s voice is low and subdued. He doesn’t make eye contact as he awaits your response, and perhaps it’s because he’s never questioned your personal decisions or the fact that he’s directly expressing his concern for you that you find yourself hesitating for the first time in months.

Did he invite you on this trip hoping you would change your mind in the end?

The thought makes your heart clench, and you have to tell yourself you’re overanalyzing. Yoongi wasn’t the kind to hint at what he wanted. He always directly expressed his thoughts no matter how offensive or uncalled for they are. You’ve always admired him for that sort of bravery, so it wouldn’t make sense for him to change now. Besides, you had made up your mind half a year ago, ever since you saw the timer flash across the T.V. screen.

Six months was how long they gave the general population to decide. Either you were rich enough to leave earth or you had to come to terms with the end. They had known about it years in advance, and though it’s unclear whether or not the planned viral outbreak was related to the detection of the comet’s trajectory, what’s undeniable is that they had kept everyone in the dark to avoid chaos.

You had no interest in space, nor did you want to be a part of a system so cruel. Yoongi didn’t either, not initially, but you weren’t going to blame him for meeting a boy who was the literal manifestation of the sun, someone who could make his heart beat in ways it never did.

“Your spot will always be open” Hoseok chimes in with his bright sunshine of a smile, and you can almost feel a fraction of what Yoongi feels when he sees it too.

“There’s more I want to see before it’s too late.” It’s not like you were alone. There were millions of other people staying on the planet- those who couldn’t afford a ticket on the escape ship.

Yoongi nods lightly, turning to walk up the steps to join Hoseok, who was already at the top still looking at you standing below, perhaps also hoping you would change your mind. Even now, you can see the softness in the latter’s eyes, the tangibility of the warmth that he radiates, and you have no trouble understanding why your bother fell for him.

And that’s the last image you see of the two. Hoseok’s melancholic gaze and the slight upturn of Yoongi’s lip as the doors close.  

…

There’s a certain kind of calmness that accompanies solitude, even when the entire world is ready to burst under suppressed chaos. There’s also a strange detachment that comes with wanting to do everything while at the same time not wanting to do anything at all because none of it mattered anymore.

Stepping onto the train, you immediately get a whiff of the stench of sweat and body odor, the kind that tells you you’re not the only one who thought spending the next few days just gazing at the world was a good way to ride through the end. Most of the seats were taken, homeless people with all their bags large and small, scattered across the floor. You almost trip on someone’s sleeping bag as you navigate down the aisle, looking for a less crowded cart, which you are fortunate enough to find just as the train begins to move.

Settling down in the seat closest to the window, you momentarily let your eyes dwell on someone sitting a couple seats away. His attention was focused on the scenery outside, but he somehow sensed the weight of your scrutiny as he turns just as you were about to lean to get a better view.    

You barely avert your gaze before he catches you staring, though you’re pretty sure he noticed because the next thing you know, he’s made his way over and is now seated across from you. Despite the sudden proximity and the bout of nerves it has initiated, you choose to keep your attention pointed at the passing scenery now zipping by in parallel with the train’s increasing speed.  

“Gorgeous, isn’t it?” His voice is light with a deep, husky undertone that glides through the air.  

You look up to find that he isn’t even looking out the window. You swallow, finding it bizarre that he’s staring at you so intently. “Indeed.”

“Traveling?”

You nod.

“Going anywhere in particular?” He tilts his head curiously; a motion almost child-like in nature and it makes you relax for the first time since you started this solo venture.

“Nope.”

He smiles, eyes crinkling at the edges. “So your plan was to just sit on this train and look out the window?”

“Pretty much, yeah” You shrug, sensing your anxieties dissipate as he does not seem to pose a threat of any kind.

He chuckles softly. “But don’t you want to go out there and really feel the earth. Really experience being alive on this planet one last time?”

“It’s dangerous.”

“It’s the end of the world. What do you have to lose?”

He was right, and your excuses don’t even sound convincing to yourself anymore.

“So what exactly are you proposing?”

“This train loops around the entire continent. I say we get off at each stop and do one thing we’ve always wanted to do.”

“We?” You’re thrown off by how easily he placed the word in his sentence. How he didn’t even hesitate to include you in his spur of the moment proposal.

He nods.

“Together?” You ask again, still skeptical.

He laughs softly; looking down and back up again with a playful smirk.

“What if we want to do different things?” You counter, still unsure why you are playing along with this stranger who hasn’t even introduced himself. 

“Ok. We’ll get off at each stop and do one thing you’ve always wanted to do.”

“You’re sure putting a lot of bets on someone you don’t even know.” You comment, waiting to see how he’s going to react.

There’s a peculiar look in his eyes, one that speaks of anticipation precipitously lost to the wind. He drops his gaze momentarily, smiling to himself before looking up at you once more.  

“Or you could say I’m going all in on someone I would like to get to know.” There’s cheerfulness in his voice that you haven’t heard in a long time, an unfamiliar yet heart racing aura of beginnings rather than the familiar imminent end that has surrounded your life for months. It makes you smile, but you can’t help but notice the sad glint in his eyes merely seconds before it’s gone.

“I…actually haven’t really thought about what I want to do.” You confess, diverting your attention to the landscape outside. Your life had always been planned. Whether it was wandering down paths that others had led you towards or the world leaving you no alternative option, you had never been offered the freedom of uninhibited choice. It was like the events had already been written, and you were just living it out like a character in a story everyone already knows the end to.

“Maybe you shouldn’t think about it.” His voice startles you, making you realize you had paused mid conversation.

“What do you mean?”

“I’ve found that overthinking leads to indecisiveness.” He tilts his head, analyzing your reaction as if waiting for a specific response.

“I’m not indecisive, and I don’t overthink.” You deny, despite knowing full well you are and have always been.  

He doesn’t look convinced. “Ok, then you’re afraid of regrets?”

“I’m just…I dunno…scared?”

He nods, displaying that he understands what you mean. “But you are here now, so you must’ve found some source of courage.”

You wouldn’t really consider your decision to stay on earth courageous. To you it was more like the final act of rebellion you had the chance of carrying out, not that you ever came close to rebelling in the past.

“Well?” The train has stopped, and you can tell he’s waiting for you to decide to get off with him or not.

It’s not forceful or pressuring in anyway, but communicates an air of patience you find to be very comforting. And there’s something about the way he speaks to you, the way he gauges your response as if he already knows what you’re about to say that inclines you to believe he knows more about you than logically possible for someone you just met. Maybe you were just easy to read, or this guy is just really good at reading social cues. Whatever it may be, you had two seconds to make your decision, and if the past has taught you anything, you already know that there’s no turning back.

…

Getting off the train, you’re surprised by the number of people still around and the cultural music dancing through the air. You expected the city to be less crowded and the mood to be more somber, a scene that makes the end of the world more obvious, in what way you weren’t sure, but definitely nothing close to what you were currently presented.  

“They’re just here, like us, enjoying these last days.” He blinks slowly, somehow able to tell that the scene has left you dumbfounded.

“I guess I just expected something different” You reply, still looking around at the people laughing and chatting away in the outdoor seating areas of restaurants and coffee shops.  

“Only 1% of the population left, and most of them probably didn’t live in old towns like this.” He glances at you from under the sunhat he had put on right after exiting the train.

His response puts a smile on your face. A picture of a smiling Hoseok and Yoongi flashes through your mind as you are remembered how they spoke about the privileged. It had been a long time since your mood has felt this light.

“So are you going to properly introduce yourself? Or am I going to have to ask you questions?” You narrow your eyes, feeling mischievous all of a sudden.

He laughs, eyes crinkling at the edges again. “It’s the end of the world. I could tell you anything and it wouldn’t even matter.” He skips a few feet ahead of you before twirling around and offering you his hand.

You’re surprised by your own lack of hesitation as you reach out almost instinctively.

“Wow, that was easier than expected.” He comments, referring to how quickly you accepted his offer compared to your obvious indecision back on the train, eyes almost wide as he gives your hand a light squeeze, making sure that it was indeed real, and his eyes weren’t just playing tricks on him.  

“It’s the end of the world.” You shrug, repeating the words he had been reiterating since the two of you met. An unfamiliar fullness engulfs your heart, and you wonder if the boy next to you feels it too. You don’t remember the last time you had held someone’s hand like this or if you had ever held a hand that fit to yours so perfectly.  

“Jungkook.” He suddenly breathes out, probably noticing the way you’ve been staring at your interlinked hands like he would suddenly let go or disappear into thin air.

“Huh?” You look up almost dazed.

“My name. It’s Jungkook.” He smiles, gripping your hand a bit tighter.

“Oh, um, I’m Y/N.” You response almost awkwardly, unprepared for his sudden revelation of sorts, trying to recall why the name seemed familiar while at the same time knowing with the utmost certainty you had never known a person with that name.  

He bobs, the expression on his face making you almost suspect that this wasn’t new information to him.  

“So what would you like to do, Miss Y/N?” He gestures at the completely foreign town, the lake and mountains not too far in the distance.

“I don’t know.” You reveal truthfully, not having thought this far yet. You were kind of just banking on intuition, but you were so caught up analyzing him along with your own shifting disposition that you hadn’t actually thought about the actual world and what you wanted to do. “With the virus and all, I had never made a bucket list or anything. I just assumed I would never get a chance to come to places like this anyways.”

“Even when it was nearly eradicated?”

“Then came this whole comet ordeal.” You sigh. “End of the world, remember?”

“Not like I could forget.” He starts swinging your interlinked arms causally. “Shall we just walk around then? Explore some abandoned buildings that may or may not be haunted.”

“You can’t seriously believe in ghosts, can you?” You cock a brow. “In this day and age?”

He cackles. “I was just testing you.”

“Sure you were” You flash him the look, but it doesn't last before you’re consumed by his contagious laughter.

It wasn’t long before the two of you stumble upon a rather decent looking lodging facility, not that you were looking for anything fancy. The walls were made of stone, a suitable complement to the cobblestone roads you had been walking along since leaving the train station, with ivy crawling up the sides and lining the windows. The building gave off the impression that it was an affordable choice for two broke travelers, not that money really mattered anymore.  

“We should probably put some of our stuff down and explore the city.” Jungkook suggests, looking up from the map on his phone.

You exhale slowly, almost having forgotten how heavy your backpack weighed on your shoulders. The sun had moved to the middle of the sky, causing beads of sweat to form and start sliding down your forehead. It wasn’t extremely hot, but you had opted to wear a few extra layers in an attempt to keep your bags a bit lighter.

Following him into the lobby, you don’t expect Jungkook to arrange a room for you as well, but he comes back with two keys to two separate rooms.

“Thanks” You voice softly as hands one of them to you.

“It would probably be safer to stay in the same room, but I don’t want you to think I’m some perverted stalker trying to take advantage of you.”  

You smirk before failing to contain your own laughter. “I already assumed you were.”

He rolls his eyes. “Just let me know if you need anything, ok?”

You nod, glancing at him one last time before heading towards your room. He seemed concerned, or his mind was thinking about something else.

The room smelled moist and musky, with an almost rotten scent, like it hadn’t been cleaned in quite some time. Not that you were expecting some pristine hotel room or sterilized classroom like the facilities back in the cities during the viral outbreak, but it was pretty clear the place hadn’t been tidied in weeks. The bed sheets were unwashed, and the trash bins hadn’t even been emptied.

You walk over to open a window, hoping the air outside would somehow neutralize the pungent odor. Just as you were contemplating going over to suggest exploring the markets, you hear a knock at your door.

“Who is it?” You call out, hoping that it was just Jungkook coming back to check up on you.

There’s no answer, but you can hear the pounding get louder, like whoever was on the other side was trying to break down the door. There’s a loud crack as the wooden door pane splinters, the rusty knob just falling off and rolling across the floor. You���re frozen in place, eyes full of fear as you stare at the large man standing at the entrance.

He slowly walks towards you with a frown on his face, blocking your view of the hallway and only escape.

Before you could scream, you hear a loud bang and the next thing you know, the man was on the ground. Your eyes immediately dart up and to your uttermost relief, you see Jungkook with a lamp clasped in his hand, eyes wide with alarm.

“We need to get out of here” He exhales, quickly grabbing your hand and making a run for it.

You don’t get a chance to look back, all you can focus on is keeping up with Jungkook’s speed as he leads you back out to the street and navigates through the crowds of people.

“Wha-how did you…?” You look at him and back in the direction the two of you ran from, mind still reeling from the hasty course of events.  

“It was my bad really, I should’ve know most places aren’t safe anymore.” He shakes his head, looking around at the people still gathered in large crowds when you’re finally at a safe distance from the lodge. “Maybe that’s why everyone is here out in the open.”

“Hey, it’s ok, we’re fine and there’s only like three weeks left anyways” You give his hand a tight squeeze, unsure of why you felt so compelled to make him feel better. Perhaps it was the sadness in his eyes, something you can’t seem to ignore because it looked so familiar yet you’re unable to comprehend it fully.

He sighs. “Three weeks…are you the type who prefers to count down?”

You want to forget about it, to not be constantly reminded that the world you once knew is gone and these last moments will soon be swallowed in the same way. But no matter how hard you try to ignore the thought, it’s always there at the back of your mind, a subconscious countdown that keeps showing up intermittently.

“I just want to be as prepared as possible, and I don’t like surprises.”

“Somehow that’s not so surprising.” He smiles for the first time in a while, and you don’t miss the hint of playfulness in his words. It’s reassuring and quells some of your anxiety.

“You don’t seem to mind this whole ordeal.” You suddenly blurt out. Ever since you met this dark haired doe-eyed Jungkook, he’s seemed so…okay with everything, like the end of the world was some kind of adventure and not a dark and dreary end to existence.

He cocks a brow. “Almost getting us into some deep shit back there?”

“No, the fact that we have three weeks left, and then it’s over.” You exhale, letting out a breath you didn’t know you had been holding in for so long and finally feeling that weight being lifted off your chest.

His features relax as he turns to face you. “I’m looking forward to what lies beyond the end and in the meantime, making the most of what we are given now.”

You don’t quite understand what he means, and there are so many questions you want to ask, but the determined look in his eyes makes you wonder if you’re missing something deeper, something he wants to convey but is waiting for you to reach your own conclusion.

“Beyond the end?”

He chuckles lightly. “Like how people say endings give birth to new beginnings?”

“You sound like my mom.” You huff, knowing that he’s just playing around again and avoiding the real answer to your question.

“Do you miss her?” He suddenly asks.

“She was never really around much. Neither was my dad.” There’s an extended pause as Jungkook waits for you to continue, almost like he senses there’s more you want to say. “My brother Yoongi was my rock, the only person in my life that I could turn towards for guidance like an actual parental figure. My parents were loving and all, but being adopted, they were just nice picture parents. They didn’t offer me the kind of depth I needed. And my brother, you know, was older and I’m sure he didn’t think much of it at the time, but his advice was something I always took seriously, whether it was subconscious or not. His opinions impacted a lot of my decisions in life…” You trail off, thinking back to all the decisions you had made because Yoongi had expressed some form of bias towards it and still question to this day if they were the right ones. It’s not like you had that many regrets, but you can’t help but wonder if your life would’ve turned out differently had you made more choices independently. “You know I could’ve just said fuck it and did the thing I actually wanted to do.”

“Well, here’s your chance.”

…

The two of you decide that the safest place to sleep is the train.

Though it was often crowded and smelled of human sweat, it was still better than figuring how to set up a tent or having to climb a tree. And after the incident at the lodge, neither of you really wanted to risk it again. Besides, spending one or two days in one city is more than enough to grab some local food and do some sightseeing. You also realize that all of the towns sort of start blending into one another, like the days you’re still trying not to countdown. You’ve gotten to the point where it doesn’t bother you as much, at least not when you’re with traveling with someone you’ve grown too fond of too quickly, but in the best way ever.  

“I guess I really didn’t think any of this through, but none of it really matters now, does it?”  

You were trailing behind him in the orchard, the sun’s rays filtering through the leaves casting moving patterns on the ground. Spending the past few days visiting gardens and vineyards had been more fun than you had expected. The fruit was sweet and the flowers were bright and lively. Each farm you visited looked to stretch on for miles and miles, twisting and twirling along the hills and rivers. You had always been told that beauty existed in the most unexpected of places, and you were finally given the chance to witness it for yourself.

“You know there’s no point in living every day thinking about the fact that you’re going to die anyways.” He takes a bite of the apple he just picked off of one of the lower branches of the tree. The sound so crisp and juicy, you can feel your mouth salivating.

You release a light chuckle. “You’re telling me this when it’s literally the end of the world?”

He turns to toss you an apple. “I’m advising you to stop thinking about endings.”

Catching it in your hands, you stare at the intermingled colors for a moment, red, yellow, and a tad bit of green merging but never really mixing to become one. Taking a bite you realize its sweetness is lace with a tangy after taste, like those bittersweet endings you’ve come to know so well.  

“I used to come to these places filled with so many thoughts on how to remember the details that I forget to enjoy the actual experience.” You pause, taking the time to decide if you wanted to continue.

Jungkook doesn’t make a sound, no signal to hint that he was going throw in commentary or interrupt your train of thought. You turn to glance at him, wondering if he’s wrapped in his own contemplation, only to find that he just looking at you, staring so intently you have to look away as you feel the blood rush to face.

“You’re still afraid of losing your memories, huh?”

It leaves his lips as a whisper, so soft that you are compelled to believe he was just mumbling to himself. You want to linger over his interesting choice of words, but you try not to think much of it and continue.

“So I tried to reason that if the journey is what we should be focusing on, I should just set goals that I’ll never reach. That way I wouldn’t have to deal with endings or being directionless in life.” You laugh. “And of course that backfired.”

“Continuously chasing after something you’ll never obtain?” He tilts his head towards the sun, closing his eyes for a brief moment.

You observe his side profile, visually drawing the outline of his silhouette and carving the image of his physical form into your brain knowing that it will last only as long as the end of time will allow.

“I just don’t like endings…or goodbyes…or even the thought that this is all there is to it.” You murmur, shifting your eyes back to the ground.

“There’s always more too it than you think.”  

“And then I read somewhere that people don’t remember what you do but they remember how you made them feel.” You don’t know where you’re going with your outburst of thoughts, and maybe the diminishing days are convincing you to let it all out before it’s too late no matter how nonsensical everything you are saying is.  

The breeze blowing by emphasizes the brief silence that follows, in which only the gentle rustling of leaves can be heard. You don’t know what else to say. You’ve never gotten this far in a conversation where your thoughts have been unhindered and you hadn’t planned an entire speech out. At this point you’re just waiting for him to respond, to tell you that you should stop thinking about uselessly irrelevant things or at least question why you’re telling him all this.

You watch as he turns to face you, not having realized you had closed the distance between you whilst ranting. He was so close you can almost feel the light brush of his shirt as it lifts up slightly in the wind and the heat of his body radiating off his smooth skin. His gaze is distracting. It’s something you’ve learned over the past week and then some. The way his dark pupils twinkle mysteriously almost mimicking those of someone’s you will never forget, but there’s something different about his. His eyes reflected the sunlight like there were stars inside.

You’re so enraptured by his beauty that you don’t realize he’s reduced the remaining space between the two of you to almost nothing, lips just millimeters away now. Without another thought, you lean forward and kiss him, mouth clumsily crashing with his. You can feel his lips curve into a smile as he kisses you back much in a much more composed and practiced manner, like he has done it a million times before, only you know that’s not possible. He breaks free temporarily only to murmur one sentence in response.

“I’ll always remember the way you made me feel.”

…

Time starts to fluctuate in ways you begin to lose track of.

Sometimes you wake up in the middle of the night confused about where you were and frantically searching for something to calm your racing thoughts. You have dreams about different phases of your life, places you’ve been, people you used to know, only they are distorted in ways that make them almost unrecognizable. And then when you try to dig them up from your memories, you find that they are lost and everything has changed.

Now you find solace in the moonlight pouring through the curtain windows of the train and the solidity of Jungkook’s hand intertwined with yours as his jacket covers both of your bodies. The way he never leaves your side is unusual for someone you didn’t even know existed until about two weeks ago, and yet he gives you no reason to doubt that he would ever leave.

It’s something you’ve too grown familiar with, the scent of his body and the warmth of his smile. And as you walk the streets of foreign cities, navigating through crowds of strange people whose faces you won’t even remember, you choose to inscribe the details of his features in your memoirs, the softness of his skin, the width of his shoulders, the veins on his forearms...

You’ve learned that he enjoys gazing at large bodies of water, lakes, rivers, and oceans, which is why you find yourself on the beach at the last stop of your journey.

“Would it make sense to say I’ve always liked being alone, but I’m not too fond of being lonely?”

He takes a minute to contemplate your seemingly contradictory statement.

“Makes perfect sense to me.” He absentmindedly tosses a seashell at the incoming wave. It’s swallowed instantly, and all you can focus on is the foamy ripples that wane back into the seemingly endless blue. “I think what makes us feel lonely is being with people who don’t really understand us, and that doesn’t happen when you’re alone since you’re just by yourself. ”

“Wow, you’re the first person who hasn’t just told me I’m just being anti-social…well, technically the second.” You smile, breathing out slowly. “I think you and my brother, Yoongi, would’ve gotten along pretty well.”

“Did he leave?”

You nod, recalling the last image of him still safely tucked away in your memories.

“And you wanted to stay to enjoy these last few weeks.”

You arch a brow, having expected him to ask why you didn’t leave rather than stating the exact answer you would’ve given him had he asked.

“How’d you guess?”

He laughs. “I figured, since you don’t seem bothered wasting all this time with me.”

“True.” You smile. “Although I wouldn’t call it wasting…”

The salty sea breeze is something you definitely didn’t have the luxury of smelling growing up. This is your first time visiting the beach, first time seeing the ocean. Each day you’ve spent on this adventure of sorts with Jungkook has been a first…and a last now that you think about it.

“You’re right. I couldn’t have asked for a better end to life on earth.”

…

Home.

It’s not a concept you are familiar with in the traditional sense. It’s not a feeling you’ve experienced first hand nor is it a place you’ve truly been to.

But looking into Jungkook’s eyes you can see it.

You can see it in the way he looks at you, the way he embraces you in his arms not because it's the end of the world and there is no one else to hold, but because it's where you belong and neither of you would have it any other way. 

“This can’t be it.” You choke out, already losing yourself to the rush of tears, though you had tried so hard to keep it together until the end. “W-we j-just met…”

He doesn’t say anything, but instead holds you tighter.

“I never even asked you anything about yourself. All I did was ramble on and on about me, throwing all my stupid thoughts out there like any of it mattered.” You’re tears won’t stop. You had always hated endings; putting the utmost effort into not caring so you wouldn’t have anything you were afraid of losing. But you just couldn’t do it. Not with him.

He flashes you one last smile as he gently cups your tear-streamed cheeks in his hands, a gesture that is not overpowered by a deep sense of hollowness but rather reflects an almost peaceful ray of hope.

“I’m here. I’m not going anywhere. I’ll always be here.”

…

...

“I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched him die. I just remember always crying until I have no tears left to shed. But he always gives me that reassuring look, with those stars in his eyes and that twitch of his soft lips like it isn’t the last time, that we’ll for sure meet again.” You release a trivial laugh, already feeling the effects of the alcohol. “Of course, I never pick up on it until I’m about to wake up.”

The bar was dim and comparably quiet, being that it was only you and Namjoon sitting at the counter. It was a Monday night, not exactly the best of days to get drunk, but it’s not like you really cared, though you probably should. You had invited the entire lab out for dinner to celebrate the publishing of your most recent paper, which turned out quite pleasant and ended roughly an hour ago. All the other students and professors had gone home.

“He’s always waiting.” You murmur, staring at the shot glass in front of you, still talking as if you were by yourself, reiterating the words that continuously circle back in your head.

Namjoon looks up, startled by your sudden comment after a lengthy pause.

“I never have to look for him because he always comes back to me.” You scoff, bringing the glass up to your lips, tilting your head, and letting the liquid burn down your throat. “And then when I react like I’ve just met him for the first time, he just flashes that gentle smile of acceptance like I didn’t just break his heart.”

Your bottom lip quivers, and before you know it, tears are streaming down your face. God, you feel ridiculous.

“And that happens every time?” Namjoon’s voice is barely a whisper, his eyes focused on his own glass.

“Never misses a beat.” You sniffle softy, picking up a napkin to dot away your tears. “I thought I was ok, but I guess I am insane.” You laugh pathetically.

“I understand. He means a lot to you.”

“He’s the kind of forever that never changes, the kind of time that does not reach an end just to continue that moment you’ve always wanted to last for an eternity.” You don’t even know what’s gotten into you, and though you’re aware of the mess you must look like right now, you can’t seem to pull it together.

There’s a long pause, and nothing but the sound of stifled music and distant footsteps can be heard.

“Professor Y/L/N, I know it’s not my place to be curious about your personal life, but can you really not think of a single person that resembles him, whether it is in the past or now?” Namjoon voice is more desperate than he probably intended, but any could tell you were not being quite yourself.

A forced smile makes it’s way to your lips as you shake your head. “He was always exactly what I needed. He was always too good to be real.”

“It’s not impossible.”

“It’s bad to be too dependent on other people.” You flash him an amused look, not really knowing what you are saying anymore as your head begins to spin from the alcohol. “And please, please, don’t get me wrong. I’m not weak or insecure.”

Namjoon doesn’t respond, sensing your tipsiness.

“It’s not that he gives my life meaning or that he makes me feel complete.” You run your hands through your hair, trying to keep your cool, but anyone could tell you’re losing it. “He’s the only truth in a world of lies. Even when I’m not aware that everything around me is merely a dream, he always feels like the only thing that is real, and for him I would be content never waking up because the rest of reality doesn’t even matter. And don’t get me wrong, I’ve long learned to be independent and logical, to refrain from getting lost in dreams, relying on others, and carrying expectations that will only result in disappointment. I’ve practiced the art of self-love for all my life, and I’m fine. My life has purpose, and I am complete the way I am.” You release a shaky breath, palms feeling cold and clammy. “I’ve always felt that I’ve had everything and yet… he offers more.”

You look up to meet Namjoon’s eyes that are nothing but sympathetic.

“How could I not want more?” You croak, beginning to cry again. “I’m so greedy.”

That’s what it is. Always wanting more, never feeling like what you have is enough. When will you learn to be grateful for what is and stop trying to obtain what is not yours to begin with?

“You are not greedy.” Namjoon’s voice is discreet, but firm. “You’re afraid to believe of his existence.”

Your eyes shoot up to meet his. “Because I know he doesn’t exist.”

“Then why do you keep going back?” His question is not for the purpose of attacking you or for blatantly calling you out for something you’ve been guilty of for years, but it catches you off guard, and you suddenly find yourself exposed… vulnerable.

“My research” You reply dryly, maintaining a steady voice amidst the fable you’ve been repeatedly telling everyone who’s ever asked. “I don’t really have a choice.”

Namjoon doesn’t look convinced, but he doesn’t try to force the truth out of you even though he knows exactly why. “No, I mean, why does your mind subconsciously always go back to him?” He murmurs, staring at the table solemnly.

His query once again seizes you in unfamiliar territory, and for the first time, you don’t know what to say or at least can’t come up with an answer that will not expose the true reason you’ve been experimenting. Because you know Namjoon is right.

You just don’t know how right he is.

When choosing a supplement to provide glucosamine for dogs, look for one that provides the nutrient in the form of glucosamine sulfate or HCL as these are higher quality and more potent formulations.

Powder and liquid forms are usually more easily dispensed than pill forms.

Tsuyu: So how are you doing Honoka? Ribbit.

Honoka: Thanks for asking I'm doing terrible!

Ururaka: Come on! It wasn't that bad.

Honoka: Yeah your right it was very bad! I got my ass beat by a clown. Who up until this point I thought was fake. I sure was wrong.

Midoriya: What were the stories about?

Honoka: I...I'd rather not say now that I know that they might be true. I don't feel confident to talk about them. But I'll tell you one thing.

Midoriya: What?

Honoka: I'm pissed! Okashi's got it out for me and I have no clue what I did! And she took some kid with her. Apparently he was releated to her.

King Dedede, steps in the room: NEVER FEAR TRIPLE D IS HERE! Where's the clown I've heard about!?

Iida: I'm afraid that you are a few minutes late.

King Dedede: No kiddin'? Ah well it would appear that.

Kaabi: That what?

King Dedede: We'll have to go home and do nothing & call our good buddy Daroach to make him handle this.

Hokori: Who?

King Dedede: Oh! Erm! I said errr...(Sees a cockroach) Here catch Cockroach! (Throws the roach at Hokori)

Hokori: (Unholy death screeches)

King Dedede: Saved it.

Kaabi: But I want to do hero stuff with you today.

King Dedede: -_-

Kaabi: ;-;

King Dedede: ... ...Ok ok fine. If it makes you happy I guess.

Kaabi: Yay!

-In a different room a few minutes later-

Tsubaki: Ok so she looked like a 30's cartoon, she was wearing clown like clothes & make up. Her hair was smooth but at the same time all over the place & she had a talking hammer with her. Okay let's see your drawings.

Kikotsu, Dedede, Sasori & Kaabi showed Tsubaki their drawings.

Kaabi: (With an ok drawing that's the easiest to identify) I think I did one eye bigger than the other.

King Dedede: (With a bad doodle with stuff in the wrong places) I was going for a feeling.

Sasori: (With an extremley detailed drawing with beautiful features just not easy to identify) Honestly, I can't even draw a circle. Heheh!

Kikotsu: (Holding a perfect image of himself)

Tsubaki: Okay. Kikotsu you just drew yourself.

Kikotsu: Err I like me.

Tsubaki: Ok well Kaabi's is the most accurate so we're gonna use that as our reference.

Sasori: Right! So going off of what Honoka's dad said to us. He used to work at a special lab. He has given us the directions. HCL is the place.

Kikotsu: What's that mean?

Tsubaki: Not a clue... ...Let's investigate.

-Later at the collapsed HCL-

Okashi: ARE YOU READY TO DIE!?

Q-Boy: HAH! AS IF!

Announcer: SUPER! SMASH HEROES!

Q-Boy: WOAH! It's like Smash! But with real people!

Okashi: I've been playing this game for 7 years. And. Well not to brag but I made this game.

Q-Boy: REALLY!?

Okashi: Yep! I added all their unique attributes and weaknesses! Nothing can stop me!

Q-Boy: I wanna play Kaabi!

Okashi: If I'm being honest. I wavered on whether or not to put Kaabi in the game.

Q-Boy: How come?

Okashi: Okay. Let's put it this way. Out of all the roster in Smash Bros Kirby is the most canonical OP character & that's a unanimous decision even if he's low tier. Adding Kaabi to my game is just like adding any other Hero. There wouldn't be a hero that'd be recognised for being OP in real life.

Q-Boy: Oh...

Okashi: Hey...How about I add you to the game!?

Q-Boy: (Gasp) Really!?

Okashi: Yeah! You can be the OP character I've been looking for!

Q-Boy: HAHAH! I'm far from overpowered Okashi!

Okashi: (Recalls the time she watched Q-Boy win a fight by doing absolutely nothing) ... ... ...HAHAHA!...(Sigh, then hugs him)...I've missed socialising with people...

King Dedede: HAVE FUN SOCIALISING IN PRISON BITCH!

Okashi: Wait what!?

Out of nowhere Dedede appeared & hit Okashi in the back of the head into a different room.

King Dedede: That'll show you about kidnapping!

Q-Boy: Hi person I've never met before!

King Dedede: Same to you kid. Now let's get you outta here.

Kikotsu: You took her out that quickly?

King Dedede: Yep! I put her in her place!

Kikotsu: ...I think you hit her into the kitchen...

King Dedede, regretting everything: ... ...AHHHH! I DIDN'T MEAN TO HIT YOU TO THERE! I WAS JUST MAKING A DE-DE-DELIGHTFUL JOKE!

Suddenly a random man appeared wearing a lab coat from the kitchen where Okashi was sent.

Man: Hello!? Who's there?

Kikotsu: A civilian?

Sasori: Everything okay down there?

Kikotsu: Yeah!

King Dedede: Never fear bystander. Did you see a small clown girl go flying by?

Man: Yes! Right that way! Through that hole in the wall!

Kikotsu, walks past the man with Dedede: Thank you we'll help you out after we catch the villain.

Man: No no no thank you.

The random man then moulds his bodies features while their backs are turned. Showing that Okashi had pretended to be a civilian trapped.

Okashi: Thank you for being such gullible guinea pigs!

Okashi then stabbed Dedede in the neck & Kikotsu in the skull both with a syringe filled with a wierd liquid.

Kikotsu: WHAT THE HELL!?

Okashi: Hmm. Did I do that?

Kikotsu: Hope you like barbeque! It's comin in hot!

Okashi: Go ahead then!

Kikotsu: Hellblast! (Sadly nothing happened) ... ... ...What!?...(He then started shaking) Wh-What's going on?!

Kikotsu's flame suddenly went out and he collapsed to the floor his eye disappeared.

King Dedede: HEY KENJI WHAT'S U-... ...Ugh...I don't feel too good in my stomach. I suddenly ain't feelin too strong. Let me try eatin something.

Dedede took some food out his pocket then just stared at it in disgust.

King Dedede: ... ...GAH! WHY DON'T I WANNA EAT ANYMORE!? MY QUIRK WON'T PROCESS THE FOOD TO ENERGY! I JUST FEEL LIKE AN EVERDAY FAT GUY NOW!

Okashi: That's right! Now I don't wanna hurt you but you diiid enter my home without my permission.

King Dedede: Your home?

Okashi: Well it used to be. Anyway I made tons of speculation on you from T.V. I've analysed every single hero! I'm always one step shead no matter who or what I'm fighting! HAHAHAHA! So your precious friend Kenji can't exist properly as his soul stays within his body through his Quirk so no Quirk no Kenji Kikotsu & as for you! You turn all the food you eat into power! But if I take that away! All the recent food you had. Well let's just say it'll just be like your some unhealthy fat guy!

King Dedede: NO!

Okashi: YES!

King Dedede: How long will it last?

Okashi: Until I make the antidote which'll never happen! Or maybe it will...IF YOU HAND OVER MY SISTER HONOKA!!!

King Dedede: Sister!?

Okashi: That's right! Honoka was created from my body parts she & I were made in this same lab! And while I was trapped in this run down dump for 7 years. Honoka was out there having alllll the fun! But now with my intellect & power I'm gonna kill her!

Byre Launches Body Washes With Unwanted Whey. But Is That Good For Skin?

Did you know the diary industry wastes 870.000 tonnes of whey, a by-product of cheese and milk production, every single year?

What a waste! But, wait, Gio, what has this got to do with skincare?

Meet Byre. It’s a new range of British body washes that rescues whey powder and uses it as their key ingredient. Like this weren’t enough, they also donate part of the proceeds to the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution to help support farming family in needs.

Using their body washes definitely makes you feel good. But are they good for your skin, too? Let’s find out:

Key Ingredients In Byre Body Washes

Sodium Laureth Sulfate and Cocamidopropyl Betaine

Sodium Laureth Sulfate and Cocamidopropyl Betaine are the cleansing agents that make these body washes work. Their job is to help water mix with oil and dirt, so they can be easily rinsed away.

While they’re at it, they also make the cleanser foam. The higher their concentration, the more lather they make.

Despite their incomprehensible chemical names, these two babies are gentle on the skin. They remove dirt and impurities without drying out skin or irritating it.

Related: Are Sulfates In Skincare Products Bad For Skin?

Whey Protein

Whey is a by-product of cheese production. It’s the liquid that’s left over after the cheese has been curdled and strained.

In skincare, whey protein is a moisturiser. It helps strengthens the skin’s protective barrier and keep skin soft and supple for hours.

Doesn’t matter how gently you cleanse, the process is always a bit traumatic for your skin. Whey makes sure that it stays soft and hydrated even as the surfactants remove oil and dirt.

Let’s Put Them To The Test: Personal Use & Opinion

Byre Body Washes come in three “milk” variants: Full, Semi-Skimmed, and Skimmed. How cool is that?

They all use the same active ingredients (explained above) and have similar formulas. What makes each one stand out is its unique scent and texture:

Full Cream: Milky white, it has the richest texture that feels more like a lotion. It’s the most hydrating of the lot, but doesn’t lather. That makes it perfect for sensitive or very dry skin. The scent? Sweet and soapy vanilla.

Semi-Skimmed: Pearly white, its texture is neither thick nor runny. I dig this one the most. It applies like a dream, is hydrating and barely lathers. The fruity floral scent is heavenly, too.

Skimmed: Translucent white, it has a thin, almost runny texture that lathers a little. It’s the least hydrating, making it perfect for oilier skin types. Or for the men in your life. The earthy, woody scent veers more towards the masculine.

All three body washes do an excellent job at cleansing my dry skin without leaving it tight and parched. They remove all dirt and impurities from my body, leaving it both clean and soft – and me feeling good. Win win.

Available at: £5.00 at Byre and Sainsbury’s

Byre Body Washes gently remove dirt and impurities from the skin, without drying or irritating it. Although they don't lather, they leave skin clean, soft, and smelling lovely.
