Can you share more about the planar belt wip?

yes!! it's Davenport-centric. the basic idea started what I put on the tags of this post just now— like, there is no way barry and lup could have made these belts with only the intention of fucking up greg grimaldis. bc i think that was part of their goal, but it might have started as "wouldn't it be funny?" and turned into "wait, shit, this might actually be helpful."

my hc about story and song is that part of the reason it worked is not only bc the Faerûn planar system heard it, but every single plane the hunger consumed also heard it. the original plane the hunger started on had the same mindset as john, sure, but just being amassed into this bigger being doesn't mean your world has given up hope. they just needed that extra nudge to fight back.

and because of this, the twosun plane also heard story and song. so not only are lup and barry trying to reach out to that world, but the world is trying to reach out to them. the goal originally, i think, was just that davenport deserved to get a Fucking Raise, thank you. but now it's just...

there is so much life unexplored there. I'm still trying to figure out how time passed when a plane is inside the hunger, bc time standing still doesn't feel powerful enough, but i love exploring the dynamics within lucretia's and magnus's family originally, and 100 years plus some is a little too long for those family members to still be around.

im thinking more like— extended living? it was shitty inside the hunger, but they also just kinda stopped aging. or aged very, very slow. idk! it's a work in progress for a reason sldfsdf

but the main points are 1) reexploring the lost time between family/freinds they left behind 2) rounding out dav's character a little more and 3) just like... the healing between the crew. some of them have people to go back to. some of them don't. i really wanna flesh out part of why the stolen century was so hard and that's just because they truly didn't know what was happening once a planar system joined the hunger. but now they have the chance to know!

but yeah :3 thank u for ur interest lsdkfsdf. it's a heavy wip rn but progressing is Going, even if it's slow

#i am speaking #taz #taz balance #asks #anon #ise cube answers #yeah ! i have lots of thoughts about how the hunger works sldfsfds #the point is is that greg fucking grimaldias is alive then so can ppl they love slkdfsdf

Carpet Cleaning Myrtle Beach - Carpet Cleaning Tips

If you've got a seriously stubborn stain or are afraid of doing more harm than good to your carpet, you always have the option of hiring a professional carpet cleaner.

carpet cleaning companies in Myrtle Beach SC

But here are some DIY tips on how to clean carpet that can help you tackle everything from bleach and red wine to blood and even nail police and pet urine smell using store-bought cleaning supplies or homemade carpet cleaner. Red wine, grape juice and coffee

These two stains are generally considered the worst of the worst by carpet care experts, as they're both acidic and have deep colors, making them almost impossible to remove if they're not immediately caught.

If you see the stain happen or find it still wet, pour club soda or water over the affected area and blot it up with a cloth. Do not rub or grind in the stain; blot the stain until it no longer remains. If the stain is still there after the carpet dries, use borax or baking soda paste in combination with cold water.

Candle wax

Candle wax can easily work its way into carpet fibers and create a slippery, oily mess. If the wax is still hot when spilled, be careful cleaning it up. Use an ice cube or ice pack to freeze whatever is left over. Once frozen, the wax will clump together and you should be able to pick most of it out.

Motor oil

Hopefully you don't have too many motor oil spills in your living room, but if this or another oil product ends up on your carpet, start by blotting up as much of it as you can. Next, use shaving cream on the stain, and be sure to work the cream into the stain thoroughly using a brush. While for most stains you want to avoid rubbing to prevent further contamination, the oil in these products lets them spread quickly throughout a carpet's fibers, and you want to make sure as much shaving cream as possible is worked into the stain. Make sure to use a shaving cream without added moistuizers because they can add oil to the carpet. For more serious, oil-based stains, you may want to consult a professional carpet cleaner. Your type of carpet — Berber carpet, thick or thin frieze, natural or synthetic — will determine how aggressive you can be in stain removal and whether you need to call in outside help.

Other oils or grease

If you spill something oily or greasy, blot away the excess quickly with a clean paper towel. Sprinkle salt or baking soda on stain and leave it overnight. Later, vacuum the salt or baking soda off of the stain area. Easy, 1 Ingredient Trick to Remove Spots on Carpet Ever wonder why spots that were removed "magically" re-appear? Here’s how to treat them to stop them from affecting your carpet. Blood Blood is thick and organic, which means it can easily stain your carpet. Remove as much as you can with a spoon or cloth and use an enzyme-based laundry detergent to break the blood down. If the stain is already dry when you find it, apply hydrogen peroxide directly, let it soak in and blot with water.

Urine

Even the mot well-behaved dog or cat may want to leave their mark. If you have a pet urine stain, absorb as much as you can with an unprinted paper or cloth towel. Follow up with a solution that’s half white vinegar and half water. Finish off the process with a solution that’s one-half teaspoon of clear, non-bleach detergent mixed with 32 ounces of water. Rinse the area and blot it dry one final time.

How to Get the Smell of Pet Urine Out of Carpet

Quick answer: Dab the wet urine with paper towel, then use a vinegar solution to help remove odors from the carpet. Ink Whether it's pen or marker, is ink usually intended to be permanent, so getting an ink stain can be one of the most challenging carpet cleaning tasks you could face. The key is to immediately blot the area with a clean, white cloth soaked in rubbing alcohol. Don't pour the rubbing alcohol directly into the ink stain, since that can cause it to spread. Be sure to blot, don't rub, which can also cause the stain to spread. If you're concerned about whether your carpet is color fast, test a small area first with the rubbing alcohol.

Nail polish

A little nail polish remover on a white rag or cloth can do the trick when it comes to removing nail polish, but test your carpet's color fastness in a less noticeable spot before tackling a big stain. Carpet Colors React Differently to Stains

Both light and dark carpet colors have their own pros and cons when it comes to stain removal. Find out more to choose the best carpet for your lifestyle. Soda Soda stains require immediate action due to their high acidic content. The acid loosens the fibers of the carpet and allows the stain to quickly settle in for a long stay. Clean these spots immediately by absorbing all of the liquid with a heavy towel. Follow by scrubbing the area thoroughly with a mixture of dish soap and water. Gum There are few messes worse than a piece of chewing gum getting stuck in the carpet. Make it a little less of a sticky situation by using a piece of ice to freeze the chewing gum before trying to remove it. "Shatter" the frozen gum gently with a hammer or other blunt object. Then ise a vacuum to remove the pieces before the gum has time to reset. Dirt or mud Dirt, grime and mud are some of the most common stains found in carpets, and fortunately, they are usually the easiest to remove. Allow the mud or dirt to dry thoroughly before you try to clean the spot. Scrubbing the stain while it’s still wet can drive it deeper into the carpet. Once the stain is dry, you can use a vacuum to remove the dirt. Then use a damp terry cloth to scrub the area. Allow the area to dry once more and then vacuum again. Why Does My Carpet Smell? If your carpet has a bad smell, consider these five potential stinky sources that may require a carpet deodorizer or professional carpet cleaning. Fruit punch, Kool-aid or ketchup It's easy to spill food and drinks, and it's even worse when the stain is a dark color. To get rid of stains left by fruit juice, fruit punch, Kool-aid or ketchup, blot much of the substance as you can as fast as you can. Then mix warm water with dish soap, dampen a clean cloth and press the cloth against the stain for 15 seconds. Let it sit. Mix one cup of white vinegar with two cups of water, dampen the cloth and press it against the stain for 15 seconds. Let it sit for 15 minutes, then blot with a clean dry towel. Lipstick Had a mishap with your favorite lipstick? To remove lipstick stains, gently place petroleum jelly on the smudge, then mix a teaspoon of dish soap with one cup of warm water. Blot the smudge gently with the cleaning solution, then scrape the petroleum jelly off with a knife. Although you'll never be able to keep your carpet entirely stain free, even the stains listed above aren't impossible to defeat. By using the right tools and cleaning supplies, as well as dealing with a stain as soon as it happens, you can limit the damage done to your carpet and prevent permanent discoloration. If these remedies don’t seem to be working, don’t waste time trying to continuously remove the stain. Know when it's time to give up on the household options and contact a highly rated professional carpet cleaner or cleaning services.

Love the ducks! Especially the tiny ones. Would love to hear the taz characters as ducks thoughts

get ready to regret this !!

all image id's are in alt!

i could go on w more but i don't have the energy rn sdlfsdf. please enjoy this selection! Only three of these are new (the racecar one for Lup, the unicorn one for Taako, and the flower pot one for Merle), the rest I have collected at other assorted times.

The Kravitz duck was actually a birthday gift!! And my mom used to have the Barry duck in her classroom because it also looks incredibly like my dad, down to the outfit and glasses shape sldfsdf.

Thank you for indulging me sldfksdf

Below the cut are some alternatives, because I honestly had a very hard time choosing!!

if it's not obvious, for the second image, the back duck is Taako and the front duck is Lup! And for the last image, the clown duck is Lup and the rose duck is Barry!!

i definitely remember your writing by how dang good you are at getting barry's voice, in narration from his pov just as much as in dialogue ("tedious familiarity" comes to mind!) he's a surprisingly difficult to characterize kind of guy in my opinion but you always nail it!

aaa thank you so much!! barry can be kinda tough to write sometimes but I'm glad his voice comes through !!!

📓!

listen listen listen. i think about this one too much.

angus mcdonald, boy detective. he's not exactly new to the detective business, but he solved a pretty Big case and now ppl respect him more. they give him Special Permissions. specifically, he is given permission to take a crack at some older unsolved cases after solving one that has stumped everyone for Quite Some Time (insert classic spicy murder case here). he's getting to become a pretty Notable Detective and he is Ready For This. and a lot of them really just needed a fresh pair of eyes. like, hello, of course old mrs johnson wasn't murdered by her dog, it was obviously her Goddamn Husband, Holy Shit. that kinda thing, yknow??

so he takes this new case on. missing person, easy peasy. only it is not, in fact, easy peasy. the case goes as followed: elven woman, 300ish years old, has been missing for 10 years, was wearing a red robe, had an umbrella etc etc. it's a very pathetic case, if im being completely honest. angus tries to contact the family but the only stone line they gave is dead and every address they gave comes up fruitless. he thinks that maybe they're like, dead, or they gave up. understandable, considering their case had pretty much been declaimed dead before it started.

(which only makes angus wanna solve it more, ofc ofc)

and try as he might, angus just keeps hitting dead ends. like, so many fucking dead ends. he always feels like he gets close to something, but there's a Mental Block stopping him. not like a "i dont know what to do next" mental block, like a "i cannot physically comprehend what's going on anymore" mental block. he spends a while doing other cases, but he keeps coming back to it because there has never been a case angus mcdonald couldn't solve.

eventually, he finds another lead. or well, another case. the rockseeker family hears word about him and hire him to take a crack at finding cyrus rockseeker. coincidentally, he went missing ten years ago. that in itself is not too unusual- faerun as a whole has a disturbing amount of missing person cases, most dating 10 to 12 years ago. but that's a different thing entirely. the point is is that angus had a lead on where cyrus might have gone. the rockseekers own a mine- wave echo cave- and angus is like, 90% sure that's where he went.

so he gets down there and he doesn't find cyrus- but he does find someone else. red robe, check. umbrella, check. elf… skeleton- not preferable, but check. and angus, of course, does not want to tamper with crime scene evidence but he's gotta take something back with him to get tested, to use as proof so they can send another team down here, etc. so he takes the umbrella. and the ding dang skeleton disintegrates. aw man D:

so now he has an umbrella. a lead one case (angus knows all about the door n the rockseeker blood and all that. he had to sit through 45 mins of the rockseekers explaining this to him. but cyrus has got to be behind that door.), a kind of solved second case. at the very least, he can now inform the family what happened to their elf friend and assure them that he will continue to update them as the rockseeker case progresses.

only he can't find them. at all.

this is where the idea gets a little choppy. bc one one hand, i would Love for him to be able to find them before anything else. bc i like confrontation scenes. i did write a lil ficlet on that that we are ignoring for the sake of this ask meme lsdkfsd.

on the other hand, i have a very very vivid image of angus continuing to work on rockseeker case and trying to find the elf woman's family. when that falls through, he makes the rockseeker case his main priority. except that like- this umbrella does not want to leave him alone. the magic department in goldcliff say that it's an umbrastaff which means it's magic. and while angus does not want to tamper with evidence, it's hard when the thing literally rolls after him. it's his Friend now!! he loves it! it throws flames at his enemies!

anyway lskdfsd eventually it gets to a point where the rockseeker family is called in to help open the door- if they want to know where cyrus went, they're gonna have to get in that room. angus has a very uncomfortable adventure with gundren rockseeker and finally, finally the door is open. inside is, as predicted, is cyrus. except he's all burnt up and there's this Glove on his hand. and, again, angus does not like tampering with evidence but this time he doesnt even get to debate his reasons why by gundren is taking the glove and then he's on fire and, yknow, all of that.

jumpcut to angus in phandalin. end of htbg's style, the city goes up in flames, angus hides in the well with his umbrella friend. by the time he gets out, the entire city is just. Gone. n all that's left is the circle of black glass.

this, ofc, leads to a lot of investigations on what the Fuck happened. angus gives the glove a wide berth as he calls in reinforcements. part of me wants to say the militia takes the glove, somehow, but that seems like a mess. i think it's more of them blocking off the area and trying to figure out what the fuck it is, because they all feel the Weird Vibes about it. several people end up banned from the case because they just- want it so bad.

one morning, angus wakes up (im imagining little tents set up around the glassing) to an alarm blaring. there are People trying to steal the glove. angus isn't the toughest lil guy, but he's determined and he's fast, so he's the first to catch up with them. the thieves have this big silver ship that they are racing back, but Angus somehow manages to cut them off. he points the umbrastaff at them and is like "what the FUCK do you think your doing??"

missing person case, now ft. angus mcdonald as the role of Missing Person. turns out these thieves are not above kidnapping if you've got the umbralla that belonged to their long lost family member.

i could go on. i have imagined this so many different ways. i have so many thoughts. this got so long help sldjfsdf

For the fic writer ask meme, share a WIP you're excited about! :)

((fic writer asks here!! send some in!!)

“Can I- hug? Is hugging okay?”

Barry just leaned forward, plopping his head against Magnus’s chest. Magnus wrapped his arms around him and pretended not to notice that his shirt was getting wet.

“You’re just so young,” Barry said, voice wet with tears. “You and- and Lucretia, you’re- I can’t even imagine doing this at your age. I’m- Magnus, you’re so much stronger than you know.”

“Bull in a china shop, yeah, I got it,” Magnus said. Barry might have laughed a little, but it sounded a lot like a sob, so Magnus wasn’t too sure.

“Emotionally, I mean,” Barry said. “I can’t- like, I broke down ‘cus my faucet was leaking when I was your age. And you’re out here fuckin’- dying and shit, you- godsdamn, Magnus, I should be the one giving you a hug.”

this one is literally just about magnus hugging ppl. he's so huggable!

16. How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Share one of them?

18. Do you title your fics before, during, or after the writing process? How do you come up with titles?

54. What’s your favorite part about the fanfiction writing process?

(Using anon because I can't send an ask from a side-blog like I want to but this is from @inside-this-writers-brain 👋 )

(fic writer asks located here!! send some in if u want!)

16. How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Share one of them?

mmmh, soooo many. so so many. main one that i haven't actually started yet is just like. i wanna give lucretia a betta fish. i think she deserves it. they could fix each other.

the maaaain arc of that fic would just be self-care via oh-shit-now-this-living-thing-is-dependent-on-me, but in a healthy way! and not the way that lucretia put herself through for fuckin',,, 12 years sldfsdf

18. Do you title your fics before, during, or after the writing process? How do you come up with titles?

Usually after, but sometimes during. Most of my titles are just, "fuck this would be a really good title" moments when I'm connecting plot points and whatnot, like Sunny Side Up! Othertimes, it's really bad jokes that just won't go away no matter how much I try to think of a different title (see: Keep Your Friends Close (And the Lich Who Gives You Cryptic Advice Closer)). n then song lyrics, ofc ofc, like Archaeology Excavation on My Body.

I was very proud of Tedious Familiarity in particular, which just came from "man, i don't wanna call this fic déjà vu, let's look up some similar words". and from the Google Meaning for it, we had tedious familiarity and i was like, ah-ha! that's spooky enough!

(Image ID in ALT)

54. What’s your favorite part about the fanfiction writing process?

Making everything connected!!! I've said before that I don't write or enjoy making outlines for fics, so most of what I write is just whatever my brain wants in the moment. And when I finally get to the moment that's just— this is what all that shit from before was about, now you know what's happening, now the character might know what's happening, what it's all for, etc.

it's just really satisfying to get there!! and once i do get there, i can then go back and edit in things that will make that moment hit harder or to help build up to it better!! it's fun! i love writing !!

thank you for the ask!!

🌹!!

Send a 🌹 and I'll post a snippet from a WIP!!

“You uh, you really shouldn’t be going out there that long, bud,” Barry said, fanning him with a folding fan that Merle had made at the start of the cycle. Who knew they had so many things that could fold into fans? “You’re gonna get heat stroke or something.”

“I’m stronger than that,” Magnus said.

“Stronger than the sun?” Barry said incredulously.

“Yes,” Magnus said, flexing.

aah okay this is such a specific little ficlet of yours but the one where voidfished taako and barry are adventuring together, barry gets killed, and then offers to possess his dead body to make taako feel better? i love it so much and have reread it several times, because I think about it often 💚 OH and also in the one where merle brings flowers to barry as a thank-you for saving his kids? the part about passerby giving merle looks for talking to an invis barry is ingrained in my mind forever

aaa i remember both of those (first one here, second one here!)!! they were both really fun to write sdlfksdf. i love writing red robe barry in particular bc he knows so much and he can't say it and aaaa!! he loves his family and they don't know but he cares anyway!!

it’s not a piece that’s been shared publicly but one of the first things you ever wrote about me, you likened me to the taste of oranges. it’s still one of the first things i tell people when i’m gushing about how sweet you are to me and how much i adore you, is that i make you think of oranges so now whenever i taste orange juice or look at an orange i think of you and how that small piece of writing lives nestled in my heart like a little orange-scented ember, keeping me warm even when the world is cold. is that maybe too poetically gay /p for a tumblr ask? maybe. but would it be us if we weren’t constantly waxing platonically gay poetic about each other at every convenience? <3

I love how much of a gut punch your work can be, it's so careful and considered and characterful. I especially love the way you write Magnus.
