So, I gotta ask: we have seen in the snippets how Mile High Kate is able to help Anthony with his anxieties. And you have said that in return he keeps her grounded, but can we have a glimpse of what that would look like? Pretty please?

I think one of the things that Kate really struggles with is one: What she’s supposed to do with herself now that her life’s completely different but also: Kate has a tendency to be a little bit reckless and a lot impulsive and Anthony’s pretty well the opposite of that.

Anthony walks around IKEA with her one afternoon,

“A rug Kate, you need a rug! Oh! And a bookshelf!”

“Why do I need a bookshelf?”

“To put your books out! I love decorating flats! It’s like displaying a little bit of your personality on the walls!”

Kate smiled, “Okay, that sounds kind of nice.”

“It is right?!”

“Yeah like a tattoo.” She clicked her tongue, “we should do that! We should get tattoos together.”

Anthony blinked at her. “If you still want me to get a tattoo with you in three months I’ll do it. Right now I just want you to pick a rug.”

“You drive a hard bargain.”

Thanks for the tag @just-kalina these are fun questions!

favorite color: green, I just found these super luxurious looking velvet green curtains in the bargain bin at ikea. It’s giving slytherin common room meets cottage core. I also spent a lot of my childhood in the Pacific Northwest so your girl loves an evergreen forest.

Favorite song: oh hell, that’s hard to pick. My music taste is all over the map but Here are a few that I’ve always loved but have gotten back into lately: emperors new clothes - Sinead O’Connor , our lady of the underground - Amber Gray , they can’t take that away from me - Billie holiday, murder she wrote - Chaka Demus & pliers (which funny enough went viral on tiktok recently) lonely in your nightmare - Duran Duran, Americans - janelle Monae, someone great - LCD sound system

Favorite book: I always liked every day by David levithan although I haven’t read it in years and I refuse to watch the movie. I have a special place in my heart for a wrinkle in time even though I know large portions of it are just Cold War era anti communist propaganda. I also really like their eyes were watching god by Zora Neale Hurston. Also I freaking love the Percy jackson books, I don’t care that I’m in my 20’s. Also also Hell or High Water the OFMD fanfic deserves a shoutout for being 75% of my serotonin for the last month.

last sentence I wrote: hmmm Econ notes unfortunately, but creatively I started a Lucius POV fic and the last sentence was something like: “He smirked, imagining the hysterics Izzy would unleash for such an oversight”

Something odd in your house: I have this travel tchotchke from chichen itza Mexico, it’s like a porcelain jaguar head swallowing a human head and it also is a whistle where if you blow into it it sounds like a jaguar roar. It’s ridiculous and I love it. I’ve always loved history and exploring historical sites and it reminds me of one of the first times I got to explore something more than 2 or 300 years old. I’d like to think young Riley would be really proud of me for moving to a place where I could see stuff like that all the time.

Tattoo you want to get: three asterisks on my wrist representing the M*A*S*H logo. A lot of the show hasn’t aged well but for airing in the seventies it was surprisingly progressive (sticking up for a gay soldier, calling out racism and American imperialism, etc.) It’s gonna be a matching tattoo with my mom. 3 generations of my family have watched the show in good times and bad times and it’s gotten us through so much. The episode Dear Sigmund is a balm for the soul.

Place you want to travel too: Turkey and Egypt. Also England simply because I’ve lived so close to it for three years now it seems weird I haven’t been?

Last time you were hugged: about an hour ago by my girlfriend before she fell asleep. She had a really rough day today and we both needed extra hugs.

@mottlemoth @hereticalpride @mangle-my-mind go for it if you feel like it!

we to ikea with mum today.

there was pretty bad traffic but it's because of all the people comming back from their holidays after the intense storms we had recently in europe. i loved the storms so much though. the thunder and heavy rain were lovely and relaxing. i'm probably backwards. i adore gloomy weather, and cold mornings, but almost everyone i know love the complete opposite. i want to move to the uk for that reason. i want to be able to go into a costa with a storm outside and read my book in there while drinking my hot chocolate. i want autumn so bad. it's currently august but i hate the summer months, and not just because it's so hot and sunny, but also because after months of having a solid routine and cherishing every break that i had, and enjoying school and handball, it all just sort of stops, and you have to just not do anything with a forced routine for three months. and then, when you finally manage to form something routinelike, you have to scrap that and get back onto your busy schedule of getting up at 6am, school at 7:50am, home at 1pm, homework at 2.30pm, snack at 4pm, handball at 7pm, home, dinner, shower and then bed at 11.45pm. and the first week is amazing, because you finally have your beloved routine back, but the next week you have to deal with the whiplash of physical activity 4 fimes a week instead of zero, and going from 11 hours of sleep to 6 (if you're lucky).

at ikea i got a monitor stand and i just finished reorganizing my desk. it sort of just consisted of putting my screen on the stand, and dusting and making all my cables look a bit more presentable. i lso got a nice ivy plant with green and white leaves, but i don't know what to call it yet. mum suggested a more femminine name, but i might use they/them pronouns and a more androgynous name just to spite her.

i kind of want to move out of this house. even though we have spent money and thought on my room, and all of my cuppoards in the various rooms of the house, i can't wait to be independent. i want to move to somewhere like kent, because it's in the uk and there is a university where you can study to do medical research which sounds more interesting than being an actual doctor. also, i'm a bit closer to the british side of the family, and i can go visit them with more ease. also, mum would have an excuse to come to the uk more often, even just for a few days. there is a house on gordon rd that i like a lot. it's small, but more than enough for me. i would have a dining table with four chairs, i would cook and study in the downstair area, and have a sofa with a bookshelf next to it. also some pieces of furnature for plants and plates. upstairs i would have a small-ish wardrobe and maybe a chest of drawers and a bed with a metal frame. the floor is carpeted upstairs with this dark grey carpet which is really nice. at ikea i saw a really beautiful carpet, with this sort of green and beige pattern on it, in the bargain corner, but mum would't buy it. one day, i will be able to make those decisions.

later anja is coming round. no kids this time, they're at her ex-husband's house. bit more peacefull that way i hope. i enjoy talking to older people. people older than me. it's satisfying in a way you can't quite obtain with almost-sixteen-year-olds. the best convesations are the ones i have with the solarolo-imola group. i like to think of them as my lot. if it's after eleven pm, you get the absolute best discorses with them.

our new home <3

prompt: moving in with the haikyuu boys !

genre: fluff as always, domesticity??

reader type: gender neutral

pairings: atsumu miya, rintarō suna, shōyō hinata, yamaguchi tadashi

a/n: this prompt may be a little hint to the fic I'm working on hehehe

ATSUMU was just as excited as you were to move into the new apartment. The two of you were nearing the 3-year mark in your relationship and after 2 of those years being spent basically already living together, you two decided to leap into renting an apartment together. As you hobbled into the cute 2nd-floor apartment, your eyes grew even wider with excitement. Atsumu had walked in shortly after you with some more of your suitcases. after placing them down by the door, he came up behind you and wrapped his arms around your waist. Leaning into the familiar warmth, you sighed contentedly. “Do you think we should get a new bookcase for that corner.” you whispered out as you pointed at the empty corner. “Whatever you want baby because this is all ours.” he smiled against the soft skin of your neck. Spinning you around, he placed a passionate kiss on your lips before smirking at you. Atsumu couldn’t wait to see your beautiful face when he woke up every day and come home to see the same small smile that was always reserved specifically for him.

SUNA would be considered a lazy prick with the moving process, he even took it upon himself to hire movers to move both of your things. It’s not that he didn’t enjoy moving, he was more of an “I’m here for the final product” person. Albeit, he was a very interactive member of the furniture shopping process. Claiming it was more fun and less work than unpacking and moving boxes. “Can we go to ikea? We should get a new bed-frame.” suna was quick to ask, a cute pout settled on his fox-like features. “Nope we have boxes to unpack, come on rin.” you called out, trying desperately to ignore how much he looked like a sad toddler who just got told that they can’t have candy. “But baby, hear me out. We can get the new vanity you wanted for our room.” he bargained as he sent you an innocent smile. You took a second to look at the pleading look on suna’s face, before defeatedly agreeing. He immediately pulled you in for a sweet hug mumbling a quiet “there’s no one i’d rather experience this with, “.

HINATA was so overly excited to share this milestone with you. He insisted on doing all of the grunt work of moving boxes and other furniture into the apartment. The soft hum of a love song played through your phone as you quietly unpacked boxes in the kitchen. Shoyo waltzed in with another two boxes that seemed ridiculously heavy. Sweat beading up on his forehead sparingly as he makes his way towards you in the kitchen. His hands immediately finding purchase on your hips before resting his head in the crook of your neck. “Tired, sho? you can take a break and I’ll go grab some stuff while you unpack.” you offered as you quietly placed the unboxed utensils down onto the counter. “No, it’s okay my love. just really happy to be in our new home.” he mumbled, the energy of his smile radiating off his skin. The smile was simply contagious because now you two were truly home, soft love songs and boxes littering the place where you and shoyo’s relationship would now thrive even more than it already has.

YAMAGUCHI had just brought in the last box from the car, as he flopped down onto the couch that had just been dropped off by the movers less than 40-minutes ago. A child-like smile graced his features as he saw you examining picture frames and other novelties that were packed into the box that you were unpacking. Shaking off the exhaustion from his limbs, he quickly padded his way over to you and placed a quaint kiss on your forehead. His smile a sickly sweet as he just wordlessly began unpacking a box that was right across from you. Love with yamaguchi was normally warm faces, sweet smiles, and quiet “I love you’s” but today, the domesticity that glazed tadashi’s eyes were nothing short of ecstasy. “I’m so glad that I get to come home to you every day, my love.” a whisper that could only be heard if you were so destined to hear it. The years of quiet love and long nights spent in each other’s home had finally paid off because now, you two were a whole.

a/n: whew, i’ve been working on this for a while but i’m jam packed with the schedule i’ve made for myself so take this as a token of my apologies

as always: notes, reblogs and comments are always welcome and asks are open!! <3

Fun in the sun 22/05/2022

My lovely girlfriend agreed to go out with me again, this time to Lakeside shopping centre. The roads down to Lakeside were quieter than they would have been at most times, so it was a relatively stress-free trip to get to the shopping centre. When we arrived, we were both peckish so it was time for a cheeky McDonalds breakfast. After eating, it was time to hit the shops. Primark first...I got a contouring brush and some nice body spray. She tried on a few outfits but didn't end up liking any of them. It was pleasant wandering around...but I felt a little out of place compared to most of the CIS girls that were about. it was a gorgeously sunny day...around 22c...but so many of them were wearing jeans. I don't get it. There were some drop-dead gorgeous girls who should have been wearing an outfit more like mine than theirs. The shopping in Lakeside was pretty fruitless. They didn't have any of the things I was looking for. The only thing I got were some looks...people looking at me and then deciding it was noteworthy to then point it out to the people they were with too. I don't understand - what is so funny about seeing a guy dressed as a girl?? I'd understand if I was delusional and didn't make a good effort...but I felt like I looked great, so it was very disheartening to feel like I was being seen straight through. A couple of Essex lads in River Island had a word with each other. A couple of restaurant employees on the Boardwalk had a bit of a look and whispered to each other. Teenage girls in the toilets found my presence hilarious. I hope they enjoy their perfect CIS-gendered lives and never feel uncomfortable in who they are.

IKEA was next. I always love wandering and looking at the set ups that they have in there. To see how things could be styled in different spaces. We went to look at wardrobes...we came out with a cutlery drainer! Exciting! Life can't always be glamorous! The retail park with TKMaxx was more exciting. I at least saw more things that I would think about buying...but ultimately still didn't buy...until the M&S outlet. The gf was paying for something in ASDA Living and told me to go ahead to M&S and she'd catch up. She was only away from me a short time, but that's all it took to find them. I spotted the white one first. Cute. Creamy. Leather. The perfect jacket. And then things got worse (for my purse) when I spotted the same thing in black at the other end of the fixture! £60 for the two...such a bargain, and they will get plenty of use. So my shopping trip had finally come through in the end! Shopping done, it was time for food. I had booked Ask Italian, which both of us enjoy...and I always tend to stick to Italian in girlmode! I had a lovely rigatoni and meat balls dish and then a salted caramel ice cream dessert! A few more looks from the large table that were over from us...but only casual glances. The meal itself was lovely and it was nice as always just being out. We then made the stroll back to the car. So it was a mixed trip. Disappointment for people reacting in ways that I may not have been so happy about...but sod them. I really liked my look that day, I had a lovely time being out in the sunshine...with the sun on my shoulders...and managed to grab a bargain. I think Lakeside isn't somewhere I'll be rushing back to...having not had issues in London or Manchester before, I'm putting it down to the area rather than my look being a total miss. It won't stop me being out and about and certainly won't make me dwell on the negatives on what was still a really nice day out. Was happy to get home and rest!

masterlist

One of the joys of being an adult was having to pick out furniture. Both you and Aizawa had decided that your couch had seen enough days and it was time to replace it. Now actually picking out a couch was another dilemma.

That’s how you ended up in Ikea arguing in the couch section. It wasn’t your proudest moment.

“You can’t be serious about that couch, it’s hideous.” You said waving your hands at the abomination in front of you.

“It’s comfortable, that’s what couches are supposed to be.” He defended it as he sat on the couch currently getting heat from you. “What more can you ask from it than a good nap.”

“For it to not make me want to throw up when I look at it?” You said.

Aizawa let out a sigh letting his head rest against the back of the couch.

“I don’t want to spend my day off arguing about couches, I’d rather be spending it on the couch while it’s in our house.” He said.

It was your turn to sigh. He was right, you didn’t want to waste your time together being upset about furniture. You plopped down on the couch next to him, his arm automatically resting around your shoulders pulling you snugly into his side.

“Oh.” You said surprised. “It is really comfortable.”

“See.” He said looking at you with the usual look he had on his face when he won an argument.

“Okay, you have a point. I can imagine some pretty good naps on here.” You said leaning your head against his shoulder. “I just wish it looked less like a blob and more like an actual couch.”

“At least it’s a neutral color.” He supplied.

“Fine, it’s not like we have any guests over.” You finally gave in.

“Hizashi’s over all the time.”

“I mean real guests.” You said. Aizawa let out a chuckle at your joke. “We can get the couch but you owe me all the lingon berry juices boxes.”

“You drive a hard bargain.” He said, hand moving up to your chin pulling you in.

It was so easy to get pulled into his dark eyes. They were so mesmerizing. You closed the distance, pressing your lips to his, one hand brushing into his long hair.

“Excuse me, this is an Ikea.” The voice of a young employee pulled you both away from each other like teenagers caught making out.

“Sorry,” You muttered, cheeks red from embarrassment. You were quick to stand up and Aizawa followed.

“C’mon, let’s get you your juice.” Aizawa says close to your ear, arm wrapping around your waist pulling you to his side.

“Let’s get you your ugly couch.” You say. “And let’s never come back here as long as that kid works here.”

Get the party started.

Feeling bored this afternoon after my 90 minute nap, I went to Ikea. Occasionally I go there just to look around. Had I not already planned a nice dinner at home I would have dined on Ikea’s Swedish meatballs. Such a bargain!

The little living rooms on display are adorable. Ikea changes them enough to keep the store fresh looking. Seeing what’s new is a fun way for me to kill an afternoon.

Yes, my life is that exciting.

The desire to furnish a small condo or apartment is strong after going to Ikea. Their ideas are cool. Were it not for all my dogs a condo would interest me.

Earlier today I went to Target. There was a odd lack of crying children. The store was eerily calm. Briefly I thought Target finally implemented my suggestion of the adult shopping morning: no one under 18 is allowed for six hours. I call and write corporate HQ frequently with this plea.

Eventually I saw a few kids in carts. But they were all as quiet as Nancy Pelosi at the SOTU address. Maybe Target used my other idea: free melatonin treats to all youngsters.

Once at Ikea though it was obvious where all the crying children had gone. My God, it was a shriekfest inside. There was so much high-pitched whining surely all the rodents and bats in a ten mile radius must have fled, not to mention many adults who had better things to do.

One kid was hate-crying so harshly at his parents that if I’d been the store manager I would have (and I am NOT kidding) asked the family to leave. That little brat is going to be a felon some day, if he lives past his fifth birthday.

Besides the little living rooms I love all the kitchenware and lighting supplies at Ikea. I don’t need anything for my house but I always want to buy stuff there. The checkout lines were long so I left empty handed (though my ears were ringing a bit).

My homemade dinner was good. Another steak prepared in the sous vide, along with sauteed mushrooms, french fries, peas, and a beer from a local brewery.

A new season of Better Call Saul is coming soon. Tonight I’m watching a few episodes of the previous season to remind myself what had been going on.

Thanks to @flowerfan2 for tagging me, and @klaineharmony who posted the original message. Here it is:

Let’s do this: What are your top three fics that you wish people would comment on? Reblog and include fandom, description, and why comments would help you as a writer. Provide links, then tag your favorite writers so they can play, too. :) No limits on how many people you tag! This is all about helping people share their work and gain motivation. And this way we all have more to read! I will reblog all of you who provide links to your stories.

I’ve written such a teeny amount of fics, all from Glee! Most readers know me for my Sweet Dreamers Klaine fics. But I’ve written outside that ‘verse, too. here are my top three.

Elementary, My Dear Anderson - This was my submission for the 2018 Klaine Advent. It’s a Klaine/Sherlock Holmes mash-up, and I had so much fun writing it! I’ve loved Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories since grade school. Writing this fic was so much fun...Glee and Holmes callbacks are in every chapter, along with all the Advent words. You don’t have to be a Holmes fan to enjoy it. I would love to get more reader feedback.

Easy To Assemble - This was written for the 2016 TDB Fic Gift Exchange, based on this prompt “ Post-wedding, Kurt and Blaine go to Ikea for the first time. They have very different opinions on what is a bargain and what looks good in their apartment, so there is some fun banter. Author can also expand to them trying to put together a couple pieces once they get home, but that isn't necessary.“ It turned out to be a fun piece of fluff,with the NYC Subway system as a key character!

Validation - There are six fics in the Sweet Dreamers ‘verse, and this was number four. Chronologically, it comes second in the series. I was able to draw on nearly forty years of administrative experience at a US university to explore how Blaine, a college student, figures out what he wants to do with his life. It’s all Blaine’s POV, with Kurt occasionally cheering from the sidelines.

Sweet Dreamers - I have to add this one, the fic that started it all for me, and introduced me to my beta and dear friend @flowerfan2  This fic, and the series it spawned, was such a gift. It combined two passions; Immigrant Rights and Glee, and four plus years later, it still gets an occasional comment.

If you’re familiar with the plot, you know that it’s an AU with Blaine as a undocumented immigrant, and starts with his being removed from a Greyhound Bus in Rochester, New York by the US Border Patrol. He and Kurt meet later on in the story. Imagine my happy surprise when in late January 2020, US Customs and Border Protection issued an internal memo, announcing that agents can no longer board buses and question passengers at locations other than border checkpoints without a warrant or the consent of the bus company.  On February 21, 2020, Greyhound announced it would no longer allow Border Patrol agents to conduct immigration checks on its buses without a warrant. Given all the awful anti-immigrant legislation and regulatory rulings we’ve seen from this US administration, this is a small win, but still a win! Read about it here.

So many fanfic writers have been tagged already, but I’ll add @black-john-lennon to the group. Hi Kay! It’s been a while!!

483-484: ‘Looking for the Answer! Fire Fist Ace Dies On the Battlefield!’ and ‘The Navy Headquarters Falls! Whitebeard's Unspeakable Wrath.’

Actually watched these on Friday but was too bummed about what had happened to post. Turns out one of the spoilers was real, after all. Joy of joys. One more to go and then all I’ll have floating around my head is that Sanji has a sister.

Annoyed at the spoiler-tastic title, though. Thanks, Toei, for ruining that in advance. I was also unwittingly spoiled by the latest Uniqlo/SJ 50 t-shirt drop (but didn’t know it at the time because I was clueless about the panel’s context).

Yes, I am delaying the inevitable...

Better get on with it.

Ace had so much to live for, but he had no regrets, so from his perspective, it is okay. I mean, the old cliche is true, right? Death is easy for the dead. Those they leave behind have to deal with the fallout. And Luffy is... beyond distraught. Catatonic with despair, actually, to the point Jimbei had to step in or else he would have been fried by Akainu.

Picking up where 483 left off, despite the Big Damned Spoiler Title, I knew Ace was not in a good way. If that title hadn’t ruined it, I might have thought even then that Ace would make it through. If Whitebeard can fight on with a hole in his chest, why couldn’t Ace? And the Pirate Alliance had Emporio Ivankov on their side, right?

There were a few final twists and turns, a few flashes of drama, before the quiet, sad moment happened. Garp rushing down to Ace, Sengoku having to pin him to stop Garp killing Akainu (I wish he hadn’t. I still want that Garp Monkey D. Family Team to happen). The nightmare fuel scene when Akainu was shot point blank by bazooka fire and walked back through the flames like a zombie with parts missing. The moment when Jimbei stood between Ace and Akainu “You will not touch him again! I have been ready to die since the beginning!” with Akainu retorting, “Looks like I need to execute a traitor.” Marco breaking free courtesy of Mr 3, enabling Luffy to take Ace away...

Damn, I really didn’t think Oda would have the cajones to kill off Ace. The moment was done well, though, so at least there’s that. Weirdly, the scene reminded me of Mufasa’s death (from The Lion King). Just Luffy’s fragile, tentative questions, “Hey. Hey... are you alright?” mixed with the horror of realisation something was terribly wrong when he placed his hand on Ace’s back and it came back thick with blood.

But still, he could deny it then. Ace could be treated. Ace could be cured. Emporio Ivankov was on his side!

Unfortunately, the damage was irreparable. Ace’s organs had been completely burned away. The moment Ivankov had to break that news was horrible. I felt so bad for Luffy. He tried to bargain desperately: “You can’t die! You promised you would never die, no matter what!”

Knowing he didn’t have much time left, Ace took advantage of the quiet moment to have a last talk with his little brother. I liked how Toei froze the battle, cast everything and everyone but Ace and Luffy in greyscale, because for that moment, the only alive people in the world were two brothers. 

“I wouldn't even have had a will to live if it weren't for Sabo and a high maintenance brother like you. If you see Dadan someday, say hello for me. When I face my own death, I even miss a woman like her. There is one thing that makes me wanna stay. That is my desire to see you fulfill your dream. But I'm sure that you can do it. Because you're my brother. Like we promised that day, I have no regrets in life. Something tells me that what I truly wanted was not fame. Did I deserve to be born? What I wanted was the answer to that question.

I can't raise my voice to let anyone hear anymore, Could you tell them what I'm about to say now? Old man, everyone, and you Luffy. Thank you... for loving someone like me: a good for nothing who has such bad blood in his veins... Thank you!”

Yeah, so at that point, I was just staring at the screen, watching Ace die and labouring under the same haze of denial as Luffy. It still wasn’t real. Then Ace’s eyes glazed over, the little flame inside him finally winked out and he slumped to the ground with a smile on his face. Even the vivre card burned to ashes.

Watching Luffy realise his brother was dead was worse than Ace’s last words. Eyes wide, he just stared at his blood-soaked hands and shook. “Ace...? Ace...?”

Then he screamed. The grief was too much and he shut down completely.

This is the second gut-wrenching loss Luffy has suffered in quick succession. As far as he’s concerned, he’s lost his crew. Now, he has lost his only brother. I wonder how this will affect Luffy going forward? I’m assuming Luffy will use Ace’s death to swear vengeance on the Marines and World Government. Take note, Marines: this is how you create a mighty enemy. Luffy does need to be stronger. But, damn, if that is not a harsh way to learn that lesson...

Oh, and I don’t ever want to see Jimbei sobbing again. That was too much on top of everything else. ;_;

Akainu Is Not A Good Person

He’s behind me, isn’t he?

That shot is honestly the only thing that cheered me up over these two episodes. I watched it three times and laughed like a drain every time.

Then it just got better because Oda let Whitebeard loose on Akainu and it was glorious! It’s as if Oda realised, “Yeah, the fans will be grieving and seething, let’s give them an outlet for their feelz.”

Akainu made another swipe at Luffy, but Marco stepped in. Unfortunately, Marco was wearing sandals. (Not the most effective footwear for facing off against Akainu. You’d need steel toe capped boots or special heat-entry PPE for that. Marco, you must update your look. Function over fashion. I know it will sting but it is for a good cause.) He couldn’t hold off Akainu completely. But someone who could rumbled up behind him.

Man... Whitebeard was mad. Beyond mad. “I will hammer you into the ground like a tent peg” mad. “I will punch you to pate” mad. I actually cheered when that first punch connected. The best part was when he grabbed Akainu by the collar, tossed him in the air and broke him with a devastating punch. I’ve never been happy to see someone bleed before. That was new.

But Akainu did get a hit in. Note to All Pirates: Do not let Akainu anywhere near your torso. Reblog to save a life!

It’s maybe too late for Whitebeard, though. I am not going to jump the gun again because Oda has subverted tropes before, but it seems like Whitebeard is intent on Marineford being his last stand. He split the battlefield so the Pirate Allies could escape, trapping himself on the other side with all the Marines. 

It was also satisfying to see Marineford sinking into the sea along with Akainu! I may also have cheered at this and laughed: “YES! BYE, SAKAZUKI! SINK INTO THE OCEAN AND DROWN!” A measured response? Absolutely not. Do I think he will be saved? Hopefully not!

Then Teach appeared.

This is the first time I was not excited to see him and his crew. I thought, “Come on, mate. There’s a time and a place...” 

But clearly, for Blackbeard, this is the perfect time and place.

Not Even In The Mood For Blackbeard

Teach has the chutzpah to turn up at Whitebeard’s last stand and advertise his new crew. I might be going off them. There are now ten Blackbeard pirates, so that’s my Individual Blackbeards vs Individual Strawhats theory up in smoke.  (Unless Luffy recruits another crew member. Then it’s back on!) 

So far, we have:

1. Blackbeard 2. Van Augr 3. Jacques Laffite 4. Jesus Burgess 5. Doc Q 6. San Juan Wolf 7. Catalina Devon 8. Shiryu of the Rain 9. Vasco Shot 10. Guy With Horns I Don’t Remember

Now it makes sense why Teach was sniffing about Impel Down. He was recruiting! Still don’t know what his game is, though. Why is he here now? What’s the point in having a chuckle at Whitebeard’s expense? Why advertise your new crew? I don’t think the Marines will be impressed that you took time off to recruit while there was a big battle going on.

I also have questions about San Juan Wolf.

How does San Juan Wolf fit on any ship? He is so massive he barely fits into shot and suffers from goddamned distance fade. Does he just trail after Teach’s ship like a massive, violent puppy? Where did they keep him in Impel Down? Would Ikea be interested in such space-defying dimensions?

I’ll have to stay tuned, I guess.

No, thank you, Ace. You’ve been great. ;_;

Feels like Dying (E.D) [Part 1]

Okay. So I asked if you wanted me to cut down this fic or post it whole. You guys said post it but because of the length I've had to split it into 2 anyways 😂 they're both out at the same time though so just check my blog for the 2nd part.

From the way Ethan sulks out of the editing room, you could tell it hadn’t gone well. You had conveniently positioned yourself at just outside the door so you could catch him right after he stormed out- you were the only person who ever seemed to be able to calm him down. So you stood outside the door and waited for the inevitable tantrum of screaming and shouting.

There wasn't much, thank the lord- just a clearly seething boyfriend who looked about two seconds away from lashing out at his twin brother.

"E, You need to calm down," Grayson tries.

But Ethan just shakes his head, "How am I supposed to calm down when the video has to go up tomorrow, and all of the footage is corrupted?"

You subtly slip out of the living room and position yourself in E's line of sight. When you were sure he saw you, you raised your brows then went into his bedroom and shut the door behind you.

A few seconds later, he follows, shutting the door so hard it rattled the Ikea shelves behind you. His breathing is ragged, and you wait a few moments before carefully reaching up and brushing his chocolate hair out of his eyes. His face is beet red, his hair sweaty, and you’d only seen a similar look in his eyes when he had gotten to upset and punched a window. (You’d talked him out of that one too).

"Hey, Ethan are you alright?"

Caramel eyes stare intently at something past your shoulder as if he might set it on fire through his gaze alone. “Hey. Look at me.” You tap his jaw gently with a finger, forcing him to make eye contact with you. “Everything is going to work out, okay.”

But Ethan only sighs loudly, stepping away from you, "I'm fine."

Okay, that's bad. Very bad. He's just going cold, his voice monotone and lifeless. Honestly, itd be better if he threw a tantrum and broke things. At least then you could help.

You decide to let him cool down, and place a chaste kiss to his forehead before leaving, giving Grayson a shrug as you go. If E wants space, that's what you'd give him.

After getting pizza in town, one plain margarita for you and two ham and pineapple for the boys (Ethan fav), you head back home. Hopefully he's had to me to chill out. You deliberate how to approach him; act like everything is okay and tell him you bought pizza, or acknowledge he's upset and ask him about his feelings?

Deciding to judge based on his feelings, You enter the house, groaning at the way Grayson is now just as red as Ethan was. Placing the pizza on the counter, You frown up at him, "What's up Gray?"

"Oh besides the fact my own brother has just tried to punch me because I asked him what's wrong," as soon as the words leave his mouth you're shocked.

No matter how bad Ethan has gotten, he's never been like this.

Upset now, You open your boyfriend's bedroom door only to be met with Ethan, his fists raised, "I told you stay out!"

You put your hands up, "Hey! It's me Ethan! God!"

He immediately drops his hands, staring at you for a moment before wandering to the other side of his room, running his hands through his hair. You plop down on the silk sheets of his bed, "What a warm welcome(!)"

"Why are you here?"

The coldness in his voice shocks you, and it hurts. You furrow your brows, "Um...I figured I'd come and see you. You seemed pretty pissed earlier. I...I brought pizza."

Apparently the offering of pizza isn't enough though, "You shouldn't be here."

"Last time I checked you were the one who gave me the key!" You're getting annoyed now.

"A mistake."

"A mistake?" You stand, the bed suddenly not so comfortable any more, "What do you mean it was a mistake?"

"I mean what I said," he turns to face you, eyes black and emotionless, "You. Me. It was a mistake."

"I-Ethan-"

He cuts you off, "Just shut up!" He's pacing now, back and forth, You wouldn't be surprised if Grayson could hear you from down the stairs.

"Hey! Don't tell me to shut up-!"

"SHUT UP Y/N!" All of a sudden you're pushed against the wall and you cry out, in shock more than pain.

Grays footsteps get louder as he runs into the room, coming between you and Ethan, "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Your boyfriend's twin looks at you, concern lacing it's way into his features when he sees the fear in yours, "Y/N? Are you okay?"

All you can do is stare at Ethan though, unable to move for shock that he had actually just pushed you.

Grayson is seething, but Ethan speaks before he can, "I want you to go. Now. We're over."

Tears brim at your eyes instantly. Gray looks at his brother in disbelief, "What the hell are you talking about?"

"Just leave," is the last thing E spits before Grayson grabs your arm and leads you into his room.

He packs a bag roughly full of clothes and pulls his charger from the wall, shoving it into his pockets.

You're confused, "Gray, what're you.."

But Gray only gives your hand a tight squeeze, offering you a small smile, "Hey, you're a part of the family. Don't ever think you're not. If he wants to lash out at everyone. He can. I'm not staying here to pick up the pieces."

Soon enough, you're being pulled out of the house by Gray and into his car. You can't help looking up at Ethans window with a sense of regret though, and you pull your knees up to your chest, sobbing loudly.

Gray comforts you. The both of you stay at your apartment that you were supposed to sell this week to live with the boys full time. Good thing you didn't.

The days are spent playing video games and having movie marathons. Anything to take your mind off of the fact that Ethan was gone. That he didn't want you anymore.

Grayson had to apologise to the fans. He lies to why they're not making videos. Personal issues he says. Not the fact that they haven't been in contact for three solid weeks.

Night times are the hardest. Gray sleeps on the sofa, You in your bed and your heartbreak feels cold. It feels like concrete drying in your chest. This was all so unexpected - top of the world one minute and cut down the next. Why is that? Is there part of him that hates to see you happy when he's miserable? 

You tries so hard. But he didn't care. Did he ever care? About anything?

Probably not.

“No, no- stop!” You toss and turn, trying to shove Ethan away from you. “Stop it! Stop saying that!” Heaving, you sit up in bed, almost hitting your head against the headboard.

Grayson is immediately by your side, stroking your face, telling you everything is going to be okay.

Salt has worked its way down your cheeks and it stings a cut on your lip. You must have bitten it in your sleep.

Damn stupid Ethan. You wipe your eyes and take deep breaths, smiling sadly at Gray. He's been your rock these past weeks, helping you cope, distracting you. He's been perfect.

It's crazy how much he's similar to Ethan, but then so different. God! Damn Ethan, damn him, damn him. It’s been a month and he’s still in your head. Only when you shove the blankets off you in frustration do you notice the banging on your door, loud and obnoxious against the steel.

You check the clock- 4AM. Grayson looks worried, "I'll get the door, You just wait right here."

The door opens and a figure stumbles into the room, "Y/N?"

That voice. You'd know that voice anywhere. Ethan...What the hell was he doing looking for you?

Grays voice is gruff when he answers his brother, "She doesn't want to see you Ethan, go back home."

"I'm not talking to you," he tries to get past Gray, but is pushed back, "I just want to see my girlfriend!"

His voice is trembling. Was he drunk? But Ethan never drinks. He hates the stuff.

You pull the blanket tighter around your body, biting down on your lip to stop from crying out. Blood enters your mouth again. Why was he here? Why was he doing this?

The last time he had seen you he wanted nothing more to do with you. And now he was here, calling you his girlfriend again.

It's just all too much.

Gray laughs dryly, " You gave up that title when you kicked her out of the house. She doesn't want to see you. Just leave."

"Oh I bet you're loving this," Ethan slurs, talking directly to his brother now, eyes turned black again. Face red. "I always figured you had a crush on Y/N. What an opportunity to be her saviour."

Gray is clenching his fists now, "Leave Ethan!"

But E carries on, "Tell me, do you kiss her better? She might be able to pretend it's me if you hit it from the ba-"

Punch.

Ethan is propelled backwards by the power of Graysons fist. He stumbles, clutching his nose. Blood spurts down his face and you run to the door, grabbing Gray's arm as he cocks it for another hit.

"Stop it Gray! He's not worth it," You whisper quickly to him, trying your hardest to pull him back. Gray outs his arm down, but stay in between you and Ethan, as if to protect you.

E stands shakily, using the bench outside for support, but collapses back down onto his knees, looking for all the world like he’s begging for you right in front of your face. “Please, Y/N. I made such a big mistake. You have to take me back.” He’s crying now, pleading like he’s bargaining for his life.

It hurts to see him like this. And you close your eyes, as if to not see him sobbing for you. Tears brim your eyes and you look to the floor.

When he sees your face, E softens, wiping the crimson from his face, "Y/N, I just want to talk."

You're not that pathetic though, and you manage to sob out, "I don't want to talk. Just leave Ethan. Please."

And he does.

He picks himself up off the floor, silent tears still crawling down his face. God, how you want to kiss those tears away. Hold him, and tell him everything will be alright, just like you had so many times before. But you hold your ground, even when he looks at you so sorrowfully you feel like your heart is being ripped out of its chest. The door closes behind him, and for one moment everything is still.

There's a part of you that wishes he would've stayed though. You don't want him to leave, not really. It's like you don't want him to go but seeing him hurts you so much. The pain feels as if you're being stabbed a thousand times in the heart but you can't die. It's agony.

Gray engulfs you in an embrace, and you cry into his chest, your body shaking violently. He holds you, like he's trying to stop you from running after his brother. Like he knows what you're thinking.

You can't manage to sleep, so instead you lay with Grayson, snuggles up in his arms watching TV. You aren't even sure what's on, some kind of animation. But you're not watching it anyways.

All you can think of is Ethan.

Then there's a buzz from the table. Your phone. Douche (the thing Gray changed Ethans name to) flashes on the screen. Gray frowns at you, but you pick up regardless, ready to tell E to leave you alone. Instead of Ethans familiar voice though, a clear females voice comes from the other end of the line, "Hello is this Y/N Y/L/N?"

Stunned, You wait a second before answering, "Um...yeah, yeah this is Y/N."

"My name's Christy, from Los Angeles general hospital. It seems that Ethan has gotten into an accident-"

Dun. Dun. Duuuuuunnnn! Second part will be up shortly 😁 remember to leave me a comment letting me know if you like.

Part 6

“Lazy day?” Ashton asked from his spot on the couch next to Calum when Sam came downstairs in leggings and a tank top.

“Nope!” she grinned at him. “Going dress shopping with the bubs and the girls.”

“Is it really a bub outing if I’m not there?” Calum asked.

“Wait, you’re not going?” Ashton asked, looking over at his friend. “What are you doing here, then?”

“Misery loves company?”

“Oh, you are not miserable!” Sam scoffed. “You’re just pouting because I told you you can’t come.”

“I don’t pout. I just find it unfair that you banished me from a bub activity.”

“It’s not a bub activity. It’s a wedding party activity. Of which, you are not technically a part of.”

“Princess, you’re forgetting a crucial piece of intel. And it’s that I am the party.”

“You’re still not coming, bub.”

Calum narrowed his eyes at her. “Have fun talking Luke out of glitter.”

“Have fun not knowing what the dress looks like,” she taunted back. Sam swiftly pressed a kiss to Calum’s cheek before kissing Ashton. “Have a good day, boys.”

“Bye, baby. Have fun,” Ashton told her while Calum sunk lower in his seat, crossing his arms over his chest.

~~~

“So, these are the colors,” Sam explained, pictures spread across the kitchen table, everybody listening intently. “The girls got their dresses and they are stunning! But all four of you still need to go get your tuxes. And when you do, take this color! This is the color!” She held up the photo in question, looking around at who she trusted most to hold on to it.

“I got it,” Calum said, snatching the picture out of her fingers. “Is there a different color you want Ash’s? Or mine for that matter?”

“No. Same color’s fine for you and Fletch too.”

“You don’t want him to match your dress?”

“Oh, her dress is beautiful!” Luke teased, seeing his opportunity and taking it. “Makes her look like a princess, Cal.”

“A queen, dumbass…” Michael sighed.

“Whatever. Point is, it’s a beautiful dress, and she looks amazing in it!”

“If you’re not this excited when we get married, I’m leaving you at the altar,” Sierra teased.

“You should leave him now,” everyone joked.

“Hey!”

“Oh! And Fletch! The flowers. Can you give this to Bryce down at the shop?”

“Yeah, I’ll give it to him next time I see him.”

“Good, good. And when is your family getting here?”

“Not til like the week of the wedding, wh- oh shit, Harry’s suit. Uh, I’ll tell him to go to a tailor to get his measurements and I’ll bring that with me when we all go get fitted.”

“Which you’re doing when?”

“When would you like us to do that, baby?”

Sam grinned, “You're so smart sometimes, Fletch. Can you guys go soon? Like next week?”

“You got it,” the boys saluted her. “Anything else?”

~~~

“Fletch!” Sam hollered from the backyard.

“What?!” Ashton asked, running to her, only to find her sitting beside the garden he’d been planting. “What are you doing?” he giggled.

“Trying to teach myself how to garden,” she stated.

“Mhm… why?”

“Because, Fletch!”

“Do you need help?”

“Yes! None of this makes sense!”

“What do you mean it doesn’t make sense?” he giggled again, coming to sit beside her.

“This!” She flashed the packet of flower seeds in her hand. “Plant in the warm season. What does that even mean? It’s California! It’s always warm season!”

“Why is this something you want to do?”

“Because it’s something you like doing, and I thought I would surprise you by doing it with you.”

“Aww! You don’t have to.”

“But I want to! It can be our thing!”

“So, if I take you to Home Depot right now, we can put some gardening stuff I’ve wanted on our wedding registry?” Ashton asked hopefully.

“Who needs fancy china anyway?”

“God, you’re the best! Okay, let’s go.”

“Wait!”

“What?”

“Call the guys. We might need help.”

A half hour later Sam was talking the ear off of a Home Depot employee. “So he wants to plant like real stuff. Like tomatoes, you know? But I think other stuff would look really good too. Like regular flowers and such. So, my question to you, is what would be the best things to plant if we were going to plant them, say, later this afternoon? What would we need?”

“Uh… I can show you what’s popular?” the clerk offered, either feeling completely out of their element or intimidated by the woman with all her questions and posse of 4 giant Aussie men.

“Lead the way!” Sam chirped.

“Oh, um, you wouldn’t happen to have those scanners for wedding registries, would you?” Ashton put in as they all started walking across the store to the garden section.

“You want to register for your wedding at Home Depot, sir?”

“Yes, please.”

“You don’t want to register at IKEA, or like a Target?”

“Nope! You guys got some great stuff here.”

“Okay…”

The wedding registry aspect of it proved to be useless as anything Ashton scanned, Calum, Luke, or Michael immediately grabbed with a “What? I want one too…”

“So, this is probably a crazy question, but c-can I be invited to your wedding? Like… nobody's going to believe me that this happened. That a couple registered here. I just… I gotta see what type of wedding would be thrown by people who register at Home frickin’ Depot,” the clerk asked as they rang everything up.

Sam hummed as she dug around in her purse, pulling out a small card and handing it over. “Yeah! Of course! I didn’t end up liking this design, but it’s got all the important information on it, so I hope this’ll do.”

“Holy crap, thank you!”

“Of course! Thanks for dealing with us.”

“You just carry invitations around in your purse?” Ashton asked Sam.

“You don’t?”

“I don’t have a purse… I have pockets.”

Sam rolled her eyes. “Just help the bubs.”

~~~

“Okay, my bachelor party and your bachelorette party,” Ashton started. “How do you want to do this? Cuz I know I have groomswomen, but I want my boys there too. And I imagine you probably want the same thing of wanting your bubs and your girls. So… separate weekends or joint party?”

“Joint party would just be a regular hang out.”

“Yeah but like… in a cabin in the mountains. Away from everything. Or separate weekends. You get everyone to do your thing with. Then I get everyone to do my thing.”

“But then we don’t get each other. And with a joint party we do.”

“I think the point of bachelor and bachelorette parties is so that way we’re not around each other, baby.”

“Then why’d you suggest a joint party, Fletch?”

“I didn’t. I was just laying out all the options.”

“Mhm… sure. A likely story.”

“Okay, I might be hoping that you pick a joint party because I think that’d be fun. A nice getaway with my closest friends and future wife. What could be better than that?”

“You do make a pretty good case.”

“So, joint party?”

“Joint party!”

The end of the month found the eight friends and Harry standing around in a cabin. “First order of business!” Sam declared. “Room assignments. Ashton and I get the master room. The rest are up for grabs. Second order of business! Once you find your room, come back with all the blankets and pillows so we can make our fort.”

“A fort?” Harry snickered. “What are you, twelve?”

“Aw, c’mon,” Ashton nudged his kid brother. “You’ve seen the pictures of our forts, haven’t you?”

“Oh, that’s like a for real thing? Thought it was a joke.”

“Fort Luke Sucks Balls is most certainly real. And for this weekend, you are an honorary member,” Sam told him with a bright smile.

“Uh… thanks? I think?”

~~~

“Mike… you were right,” Luke breathed as Sam turned around in her dress. “You do look like a queen, sweetheart.”

Sam blushed. “Thanks, partner.”

“You saw her try it on in the store last week,” Michael told Luke. “Idiot…”

“Well, yeah! But not with her hair all done up, and make up.”

“You’re right. Still an idiot, but you’re right. Wanna make a bet for when Ash starts crying?”

“Hmm…” Luke thought. “Tears up when she walks down the aisle, full on sobbing through his vows.”

“Oh, definitely with you on him tearing up when she comes down the aisle. But I’m betting he just does that thing where he clears his throat a lot rather than the blubbering during the vows.”

“Alright. So if I win, we have to change Fort Luke Sucks Balls.”

“And when you lose, a name change can never be proposed again by you.”

“Deal.”

The blondes shook hands to cement the agreement, each one certain they’d win while Sam rolled her eyes. A bet the was rendered null and void when Ashton A.) teared up when Sam came down the aisle, and B.) cleared his throat a grand total of 107 times (Michael counted) before quietly breaking down during Sam’s vows.

“I now pronounce you Hubasaurus Fletch, and Wifeysaurus Babe,” Calum announced. “Now kiss your bride before you start crying again.”

Ashton gave a half sobbed laugh, before cupping Sam’s face in his hands and ducking his head down to give her the world’s most heartfelt kiss.

~~~

“Alright,” Calum said into a microphone, getting the toasts started. “Hi, everyone, I’m Calum Hood. The wedding officiant, and only guest speaker for this evening.”

“The sensation!” Michael called out loudly, his hands cupped around his mouth.

“The bodacious!” Luke joined in.

“Ccccccaaaaaalllllllluuuuummmmmmm Hhhhhooooooooooooodddddd!” the group of friends all whooped, drumming their hands on the table.

“Okay, thank you!” Calum said with a squishy cheeked grin. “So, as you can imagine we all love Ashton and Sam so much. And when deciding this part of the night, we all wanted a chance to say something. But, we ultimately decided that a lot of our stories would overlap and that it would be too long, so I’m doing it on behalf of all of us. So, it goes without saying Ash, that you’re like a big brother to us guys. I don’t think it’s a stretch of the imagination to say that we wouldn’t be the people we are without you in our lives. And we’ll never be able to thank you enough for accepting a random Facebook message from a kid you didn’t know and helping us become what we are. And then there’s Princess Sam. Sorry, Queen Sam. I have never been happier to be proved wrong in my entire life. I’ve never been happier to have been wrong about thinking you were just some girl that wouldn’t matter in a couple of months. And I deeply apologize for everything I did in those first few months. In these last 5 years I’ve gotten to know you, it’s very easy to see the woman that stole my best friend’s heart. Because you stole all of ours too. And if I say anything else, I’m gonna end up like Ash here, so I’ll just end this by saying that I’ll forever be grateful that you two found each other, because it’s been nothing short of incredible. Here’s to the best years.”

Calum raised his glass, everyone else following suit, while Luke and Michael hopped up on stage next to Calum. Michael grabbed the microphone out of Calum’s hands while Luke got situated with a guitar. “Perfect toast for a perfect couple, Cal. And perfect segway into the newly announced Mr. and Mrs. Ashton Irwin’s first dance! Hit it, Luke!”

While Luke started strumming the opening chords to Best Years, Ashton led Sam out to the dance floor, spinning her in a slow circle before pulling her close. “I love you so much, baby,” he whispered for only her to hear.

“I love you too, Fletch. So fuckin’ much.”

10 Things Nobody Tells You About Bathroom Storage

Next to the kitchen, the bathroom might be the most hard-working room of the house. In my home, it’s where we bathe, practice good dental hygiene, put on makeup, apply Korean face masks (me), catch up on the news (my husband), and prepare for “Crazy Hair Day” (our kids). Given the bathroom’s multifunctionality, it’s critical that the room have proper storage. But proper storage in the bathroom doesn’t just mean having enough shelving.

There are three issues unique to bathrooms that need to be considered when planning bathroom storage for this space, and other space storage, like kitchen storage, living room storage, need to consider other specific things.

Heat and humidity: Particularly for bathrooms that don’t have proper ventilation (windows, fans), hot showers and baths can lead to mold and mildew.

Lots of little things: Toiletries and makeup products can make organization difficult.

Electrical bathroom tools: Electric toothbrushes, razors, and hairdryers can be a challenge to store and/or charge.

Here, 10 things to consider when figuring out what to put where in the bathroom.

1. Closed storage works best in a small bath.

We love open shelving in the kitchen, but in the bathroom? Not as much. That’s not to say it’s impossible to pull off an organized bathroom with open shelving, but having doors and drawers to hide the bits and bobs and the unattractive necessities of your get-ready routine can be a godsend.

2. Concealed isn’t the same as organized.

An addendum to the first tip: Closed storage is great—as long as you don’t use it as license to clutter it up. Take time to create another layer of organization via baskets, bins, buckets, and bags. For more ideas on how to rein in the mess in the cabinet under the sink, see 5 Tips for Under-the-Sink Organization.

3. Towel warmers are actually not meant for warming towels.

Here’s a clue: Towel warmers are also known as heated towel rails, heated towel bars, and drying racks, as bathroom storage rack. Yes, they will heat up towels so that you can enjoy a warm one post-shower, but what these products are really meant for is drying your towels. So, though a towel warmer may seem like an unnecessary luxury, it actually has a very utilitarian purpose. See Remodeling 101: Towel Warmers for a primer.

4. Rods dry towels better than hooks.

I will always advocate for using hooks in a kid’s bathroom; little ones are much more likely to hang up towels on a hook, like a no damage wall hanging than to drape them neatly over a towel rod. That said, if your bathroom is windowless, go for towel bars. They will dry your towels faster than hooks.

5. An electrical outlet inside a built-in cabinet is a necessary luxury.

If you use an electrical tool that needs to be charged (toothbrushes, razors, etc.), having an outlet inside the medicine cabinet is super-useful. That way, you can keep all those items—and their unsightly cords—out of the way and behind closed doors.

6. Finding a dedicated spot for your hair dryer can be life-changing.

Another electrical tool that needs designated storage: your hair dryer. You can buy holsters or hooks designed to store the item, or you can simply hang it up in a pretty basket or a French net market bag (see Economy Class: Is This Ikea’s Best New Bargain Find? for an inexpensive version).

7. You need more than just one hand towel within reach.

Experts say that hand towels should be washed every couple days, as well as other accessories, and since I’m not convinced that all members of my household use soap holder when they wash their hands, I’m going to follow that advice. You should, too. Wet towels in the bathroom are breeding grounds for all sorts of pretty nasty bacteria. Keep a stack of hand towels in the bathroom so it’s easy to swap in a fresh one.

8. Medicine should never be kept in the medicine cabinet.

File this under: Irony 101. One of the worst places to store medicine is in a bathroom’s medicine cabinet with wall mounted screw. That’s because heat and humidity, both of which are common to places where we shower and bathe, can affect the efficacy of many drugs.

9. Toilet brushes need to be disinfected.

Chances are, you do what I do after cleaning with the toilet brush: flush the toilet and rinse the brush under the running water. Problem is, you haven’t truly cleaned it. To do that, you need to disinfect the brush, either with a bleach solution or hydrogen peroxide, as recommended by one of our favorite eco domestic scientists, Clean Mama. Go here for her tutorial (plus a genius tip on how to dry the brush).

10. The bath mat shouldn’t be left on the floor.

I have many domestic pet peeves, but chief among them is leaving a sopping wet bath mat on the floor. (On the spectrum of household annoyances, it’s worse than using multiple water glasses a day and equal to wearing shoes indoors, I’d say.) If you have a tub, simply drape it over the side to dry; if you don’t, consider adding a towel rod for this purpose.
