Memories from a pitbull attack at 7 years old; no serious injuries, but lasting fear

2023.03.28 20:59 Purrks Memories from a pitbull attack at 7 years old; no serious injuries, but lasting fear



My mom told me to walk to a neighbor's house with my almost 4-year-old brother to deliver some papers. The neighbor lived close; about a third of a mile away. When we were almost back home, I heard something approach us from behind. These are the thoughts I remember.
What is that?! Why is it all red in the face, around the eyes, nose? Is it bleeding inside? Is it a dog? It must be a dog. I've never seen fur like that (brindle) before. Dogs are cute and pretty and friendly and I love them, but this one isn't. "Go home! Go away! Go home!" Mom said watch out for the pit bull, but a dog that can attack people has to be bigger than this one.
It's growling. It's angry. Is this the pitbull dog that I've heard adults talking about? I think they said it bit Dave (6 years older than me) who lives near the bus stop. I don't think I should run and I definitely don't want to turn my back on it. Little bro is more vulnerable. I must protect him. If I don't, mom's gonna kill me. Should I separate us or stay together?
I give verbal instructions to my little 3-almost-4-year-old brother to move slowly towards the open garage attached to our house, talking him through it every step of the way, getting him into the house while I keep the dog's eyes on me.
Once he is in the door of the house, hopefully he is tall enough to press the button to shut the overhead garage door as I run into the garage while the door is closing. He will then shut the door to the house, making sure he stays safe from dog. If I run real fast and time it right, I'll get into the garage just before the door comes all the way down, and the dog will be stuck outside the garage while I'm safe inside. This is the best plan. Yes, dumb plan but c'mon I wasn't even 8 years old yet.
Pitbull keeps growling and snarling, approaching me as I try to slowly back away from it. We are moving slowly towards the safety of my house. If I can just get to the driveway, I'll be ok. It can't hurt me there. It's close. I just need to get to the driveway.
Rrargrarrargf pit bull jumps up and grabs my left arm in its jaw. Owwww! What the hell, dude, I never did anything to you!! Why do you have a problem with me?! "No! No! Go home! GO HOME!" Pit whips its head back and forth, tearing my very puffy ombre pink jacket. Pit no longer holds my arm in its jaw; it's only biting and ripping the jacket. I loved that jacket; older brother had the same one in blue. Phew, the jacket saved my arm. Should I keep it on? Yes, it is protecting me from bites. I take my left arm out of the sleeve, so my arm is inside the main compartment of the jacket, next to my body. The empty left sleeve hangs limply. Dog lunges again, bites left sleeve, gets a mouth of jacket. Lunges again, bites shave and claws me again.
", reach up real high and push the garage door button now! Do it now!!" I turn and run as fast as I can into the garage. My plan works perfectly. I'm safe.
My mom isn't home; we don't know where she is. Later we find out she's drinking and carousing at a neighbor's house. She comes home after the neighbor gets a phone call from another neighbor, saying my older brother got attacked by pitbull while riding his bike.
My mom brushed off what happened to me and my younger brother because we didn't have puncture wounds like older brother. I had a shitty mom who didn't care that I had bruises and scratches on my face and arm, because my 6-years-older bro was hurt worse. He had puncture wounds on his leg and was taken to the hospital. No stitches.
I had to testify in court, along with neighbor kid Dave and my older brother. My classmates made fun of me when I told them I had to leave school to go to court. "What did you do?! Are you going to jail?" My family never talked about what happened to me and younger brother; only what happened to older brother. The only time I told anyone what happened to me was in court. I wanted my pink jacket back, but that left sleeve was shredded.

Even though we weren't seriously hurt, it was still terrifying for us. 30 years later,v with 10 years of therapy mostly to address other things, I'm still dealing with the aftermath. I'm scared of stray and unleashed dogs, and I don't really like most leashed dogs. When I am with my kid and we encounter a stray dog, I'm 7 years old all over again, in my puffy pink ombre jacket, trying to protect my little brother, with no defenses or experience, and I go into fight/flight/freeze hypervigilance that can last for days.

When I was 12, my popular friend got kind of mad at me because I was afraid of her dog. Now I realize it's because it was a brindle Boxer and it resembled the pit bull from the attack, except much cuter. I'm sorry, Jenny, for not loving Rocky like you did.
I love cats, except tortoiseshell cats. I just figured out recently it's because that coat pattern looks like a brindle pit bull.

ENERGY REPORT April 2023 -AWAKENING TO A NEW LIFE

ENERGY REPORT April 2023 -AWAKENING TO A NEW LIFE
In some parts of the text, for obvious reasons, I do not write directly. To better illustrate some phenomena, I use the description of dual reality and the earthly calculation of time, although everything is happening non-dual in the now. Some phenomena are described in the simplest possible way so that they are understandable. I focus mainly on ascending line events. Those who have to understand the text will understand it easily. The text is worth reading with the heart.
ENERGY REPORT APRIL 2023 - AWAKENING TO A NEW LIFE
(1)
For starters, a synthetic summary of March (and mid-February).
The past period was very dynamic in terms of processes and flowing energies. After a rather "bland" February, March gained a definite "expression". Practically the entire period from the last report was preparation for the entry of the highest vibrations in the period of March 20-23, the purpose of which was to open the most powerful process (since March 22) related to individual transitions to the 5D reality (I signaled this process in the previous report - I will also describe it in more detail below).
In the first part of this period (from 17.02 to 06.03) we could experience increased solar activity, which brought a number of very strong and cumulative flares, specifically 2 X-class flares (17.02 - X2.2 and 03.03 - X2.02) and eleven slightly weaker ones, but also strong M-class flares (20.02 M4.4, 21.02 M5.0, 22.02 M2.6, 23.02 M1.5, 24.02 M3.7, 25.02 M6.3, 28 M8.6, 01.03 M1.0, 02.03 M3. 8, 04.03 M5.2, 05.03 M5.04, 06.06 M5.8). In the second part of the period in question (from 07.03 to 23.03, when the report is published), the activity even decreased to level A, and on average remained at level B and C (low and medium levels).
It was closely related to the processes that took place both in the collective field (first a strong cleansing of the collective mental space and the collective heart and - then - activation of new potentials) and individual (harmonization of new energies).
17.02 - 20.02 - at the individual level, very high energies flowed into human bodies causing the cleansing of the heart chakra, the entire main channel and preparation for the transmission of even higher energies. At the level of sensations, it was possible to feel strong vibrations in the heart chakra and the entire spine. They might have been felt even like shaking. On a physical level, they could cause insomnia. In the collective field, energy structures supporting the existing reality on all levels of existence were broken. So that in the future, based on this process, it would be possible to build new, constructive solutions. This process also brought very strong winds and gales to various parts of the world.
February 21 was a day of silence. With the beautiful energies of the heart chakra connecting people to higher dimensions. Here you could experience full fusion with the Divine Aspect of your Being, but also connect with the Higher Purpose of the Soul. These were strongly felt energies of the "New Earth". Such a prelude to anchor them from 22.03.
22.02 - 23.02 - another portion of energy releasing the patterns of the 3D Matrix from human bodies, which in turn caused a jump in the vibrations of the collective field. Our entire planet went through a similar process. Many people felt heavy and swollen legs that day.
24.02 - strong charging of cells in human bodies with life energy, which brought the first stage of formation of light bodies in some people. These were very pleasant subtle micro-vibrations throughout the body, combined with a subjectively felt greater vitality, lightness, liveliness. The slowdown of time (even its stopping) was also clearly felt. In many people, extrasensory capabilities and hidden potentials have also been activated. There was also an energy attack (technological disruption of the entire collective field).
25/02 - energy codes have flowed into space, activating the collective mental field to a higher level. This means that more and more people in the near future will stop operating from the ego-mind level and will enter the level of feeling the body (using the nomenclature of the psychological-energetic profile: they will be ready to act in accordance with their energy strategy). Thus, these people will cease to be energy givers for the falling lineage, they will also enter the potential of creation from the level of the heart.
26.02 - codes activating fully light bodies reached human bodies. In the first part of beings, this will manifest in the next few weeks. From that day, continuously, every morning (practically until 12.03) I watched technological attempts to lower vibrations in people. Many people may have felt a sharp drop in power during this time, decreased energy levels, disturbances in the heart chakra (including palpitations, burning, other cardiac symptoms), headaches, lethargy, general breakdown and concentration problems, irritability, etc.
13.03-17.03 chaos part one. The descending energies brought on a collective level a lot of chaos and accelerated verification of what is still not working properly and needs to be changed. This translated into the individual level in people as the accumulation of a number of issues during these few days, which at the same time required taking care of them and settling them (urgent and often important topics). I also observed an increased failure rate of many devices (especially electricity and water). In general, this caused quite a lot of confusion and - for some - chaos in life. There was a noticeable acceleration of time. Many people during this period may have felt literally "exhausted" from dealing with additional topics.
18.03 brought calming after premature turbulence in energies and in action. That day, very high energies were felt, causing abnormal vitality, no need to sleep, full mental clarity, but also - if someone managed to fall asleep - very vivid dreams. The preparatory process for the transition on March 22 has begun.
This state of affairs was not to be enjoyed for long, as strong disturbances began in the afternoon of March 19 (Central European Time). First as an unpleasant pressure on the crown chakra and the third eye, then uncomfortable sensations in the lower chakras. These disruptions continued until 21.03, many people may have felt bad, powerless, irritable and even with symptoms of illness.
21.03 to 23.03 was a powerful transition time into 5D reality (I will expand on this later in this report). At the time of this report, the first part of the ascending line beings is already fully anchored in the higher fractal of reality. This means that from now on they have the ability to act from the level of an unconditionally open heart.
Their actions are and will be a good reinforcement for others who still have this process ahead of them throughout 2023 and 2024 (this applies especially to beings from the midline). In space, there was a huge leap in the vibrations of the collective field.
24.03 - 31.03 chaos part two. During this period, it was possible and will be still possible to experience similar vibrations as in the period from 13.03 to 17.03 (report published on 23.03). There have also occurred and may still occur technical problems and failures of equipment, telecommunications, etc. The difference compared to the first period of chaos on March 13 - March 17 is that this time the actions taken are not activated by motivation "from the problem" and fear from the level of the lower chakras (the base chakra: survival, the second chakra - attachment to matter), but solved through the prism of the fourth chakra (creation towards the best solution) and motivation "to solve".
So much for the summary of the past period. Now I will move on to what awaits us energetically in April.
(2)
April is the base month that will bring the first effects of the transition process that took place on March 22, and whose flashes were visible in the energies from March 15. It is about the now open passage to the 5D reality (reality of the heart).
The reality of the heart causes creation from the inside (at the level of personal desires) to the outside (toward the manifestation of those desires). The "DO" - "To solve" motivation works here. Man is no longer motivated by fear of survival (base chakra) or desire to possess or fear of loss (sacral chakra), but enters the space of the pattern "I manifest my desires outside" (heart chakra).
For this reason, at the energy level, April will resemble nature waking up to life at an express pace. Everything that was anchored in the collective field and in individual bodies in March and previous months will find space for manifestation in April. I can literally say that in April people will finally awaken to life as free beings with the full power of creation from an unconditionally open heart.
This is possible because at the time of the transition on March 22nd and in the days leading up to this event, the incoming energies made it possible for each being to be fully cleansed of their karma on all levels and dimensions.
Thus, each being now begins its own life without any burdens, but also with personal responsibility for the effects of its own creation. At the same time, this creation is possible from the level of an open heart.
Beings who do not have a heart chakra, or have been blocked by various types of activities (especially heavily promoted in the mainstream in the last three years), do not have access to the space of their own creation from the level of the heart and 5D reality. They still operate on the low vibration patterns of the base chakra or sacral chakra. Thus, they remain on a timeline anchored in the old 3D reality, which is heading towards entropy.
Entering the reality of the heart is entering a higher energetic fractal of consciousness and existence. A fractal is understood here as a self-repeating pattern containing lower-order fractals and at the same time being part of a higher-order fractal. Thus, the reality (fractal) of the 5D heart includes and contains the lower fractal, which is the reality of the 4D mind, and the even lower one, which is the fractal of the 3D reality (physical body).
A LITTLE DIGRESSION: From my observations, many people are still afraid of following themselves and their desires. They are afraid to leave what no longer serves them, but gives the illusion of a sense of security because it is known.
However, this fear is groundless, because the higher fractal contains all the potentials and existing resources that were available on the lower fractal (because the higher fractal includes the lower fractal). What's more: all the potentials and resources that were the "peak of possibilities" in the lower fractal, in the higher fractal are only the starting base and the initial state. It's like moving to a higher class and starting learning there and having the potential for new opportunities, but at the same time being able to do everything that the previous class ended up with. The final state of the lower fractal is thus guaranteed in the higher fractal. Simply put: following your own heart not only guarantees maintaining the current standard of living and being, but also creates space to significantly exceed this level.
Entering the creation of the heart opens up a space of new possibilities based on what has come before and gives access to higher, better levels of being. At the same time, it retains all existing potentials. Therefore, there is no way to follow your own heart and do a worse or less paid job or be in a less satisfying relationship, etc.
Understanding this is crucial in order to enter these processes of change without fear.
If, on the other hand, in the coming weeks, despite the desire of the heart, a person will continue to maintain the status quo from the level of fear, then external circumstances will force specific situations to move towards the new, which does not necessarily have to be comfortable and in line with expectations. That is why it is even more worth taking care of taking matters into your own hands and creating reality in harmony with yourself.
Therefore, each new situation, although it causes knocking out of the comfort zone, is an opportunity for a creative solution from the heart. The key questions here are: "What do I want in this situation and where do I want to get to?" "What can I take the first step towards my desire?"
The transition process - although it is ultimately common for the entire collective - is individual in nature. It is the process of every single being in the midline or ascension line. It is literally waking up people from multi- incarnation hibernation to a new life. It reminds me of blooming flowers.
(3)
The above process at the collective level in April and the following months will cause a fundamental change in the distribution of energy in Space. Every being who enters the creation process from the level of the heart will transcend the dual reality. It will cease to be a counterbalance to low-vibration structures and a falling line. This will cause as early as April that the low-vibration side (falling line) will begin to collapse under its own weight (I signaled this process in several previous reports).
Therefore, April (like May and June) - at the collective level - will bring a lot of turbulence on the declining line. They will result from the rapid depletion of power supply there. Therefore, we should expect the next weeks of sudden events (further attempts to obtain additional energy generated from fear), internal jostling for energy, but also the usual disintegration of the existing low-vibration structures. It resembles old plaster peeling off the walls and revealing completely different, but beautiful and strong walls.
This time, however, any actions from the level of fear or intimidation will simply cease to bring any effects, because vibrationally fewer and fewer beings will verify this.
On a collective level, every being who chooses to follow their own heart will contribute to the creation of the "New Earth" vibration. This, in turn, will facilitate the transition to the 5D reality of subsequent beings.
At this point, Field is fully ready to be filled with completely new patterns of functioning - in accordance with the vibration of the heart. It will also support every being in its decisions and actions from this level. Even if the actions taken from the head level will seem irrational. However, it must be remembered that the mind functions in a 4D reality and it is a lower fractal than the vibration of the heart (5D reality), so it cannot see and does not have access to all the possibilities that the heart does.
(4)
The transition that took place on March 22, on a collective level, also opened access to new technologies for humanity, which until then had been beyond the reach of humans. This blockage was solely because using such technologies from the base chakra ("fight or flight, but do something to survive") or sacral chakra ("wish it or you may not have it") patterns could cause these technologies to would be used against humanity. April, on the other hand, initiates the process of access to new technologies.
Each subsequent person who, from April, chooses to live according to their own heart, will begin to co-create the collective field, which, after reaching a critical mass, will cause the manifestation of these technologies in the material space of the Earth. Access to them is now open.
Awareness of this fact is very important, because it is not only about free energy, but about breakthrough solutions in the field of human health, ecological regeneration of the planet, extraterrestrial travel technology and many others. In the coming years, it will bring rapid development of humanity and, consequently, opening up to other civilizations. The key here, however, is that the spiritual development of humanity (a sufficiently high level of consciousness) precedes these technologies.
Some of these technologies have been known on our planet for a long time (although they have been blocked and hidden from the public - these will be released), while some in technology and breakthrough solutions will only be "discovered". Or rather, it will be "dumped" into the minds of specific people who will pass it on as inventions or groundbreaking discoveries for humanity. An interesting process ahead. It is worth following this phenomenon and supporting it with your creation so that it can manifest itself faster in the space of our Planet.
(5)
The transition to 5D reality and the disappearance of the falling line is raising the vibration of all humanity. And it has - at the level of the entire planet - an impact on the crumbling of the artificially created Matrix of 3D time, which in the future (depending on the pace of transition of individual people to the 5D reality) will result in the literal emergence of the New Earth (mitigation and equalization of the climate on the entire globe, changed and more beneficial for health structure of the air, changed structure of solar radiation, lack of cataclysms caused by the elements, harmony of ecosystems, and many others).
And although it may sound like science fiction now, this scenario is ahead of us. What I wish for all of us.
(6)
SUMMARY OF THE REPORT AND JOINT ACTIONS FOR APRIL:
Goals for Individuals: (1) choose life actions based on heart desires, (2) withdraw one's attention from low- energy activities, situations, people, and places.
Goals for the Human Collective: (1) opening up to new technologies, (2) cooperation based on goals based on higher values.
With love - Anna

There was no rationale for pain. Dallion was fully aware that Nil had been manipulating him for centuries and more, and yet refusing to his face made him feel as if he’d lost a friend. It was easy to claim that it was the lingering effects of emotional blackmail, the overall stress he was subjected to, or some other rational reason. At the same time, Dallion knew all that to be a bunch of crap. The reason Dallion was feeling what he was had nothing to do with the echo or even the mage behind him; the pain came because in a way Dallion couldn’t honestly say he was any different. Several of his main skills were based on manipulation. Every time he used music skills or engaged the abilities of his empathy trait, he was making people, animals, and guardians do what he wanted. The degree varied, but there was never any doubt what he was doing. And the most absurd thing of it—for the most part, no one seemed to care all that much. It was the fight with the Star that had changed everything.
“He’s gone,” one of Dallion’s echoes approached him. “Back to your realm, if I had to guess.”
Dallion didn’t respond.
“We all know it’s messed up, but you know such things happened in this world. Even before you learned, he was the archmage you had your suspicions. Did you think he’d be any different from the other beings of power you’d come across? Two of them tried to take over the world in the past.”
No, I suppose not, Dallion said to himself.
“He was right about one thing, though. You need to rest. We can pause for a few hours so you can take a nap.”
“No.” Dallion briskly turned around. “No naps. I’ll just sit down for a bit.”
“Right. Better than nothing, I guess.” Dallion’s echo shrugged. “Just set your thoughts in order. Would be annoying if Nil ended up being right.”
Dallion sat on the floor and drew a light symbol. It wasn’t strong, just enough to provide a calming blue glow.
“Oh, and I’m sure Eury doesn’t see you that way,” the echo added.
“What way?” Dallion instinctively asked.
“Like Adzorg.”
While it was nice to be reassured by someone, it would have been better if that someone wasn’t an identical copy of himself. Distance was starting to play a part to the point that he considered her a memory. Sometimes the memories would stir him to action, but all it took was another event to make him forget just as much.
Guess you were right about that as well, Nil, Dallion thought. If he wanted his relationship to last, he was going to have to work on it, and that meant leaving the Academy. Either that or—

REALM COLLAPSED

A green rectangle appeared.

REALM BREAKER
(+5 MIND)
You have successfully destroyed a prison realm from within. Just be mindful that doesn’t make you unstoppable, just persistently annoying.

The suddenness kept Dallion from focusing on the unexpected achievement. Instead, he mentally prepared to return to a fight he had started weeks ago.
Less than a second had passed in the real world; Phoil—or rather the symbiotic echo within him—had started the final attack, though he hadn’t had enough time to complete it.
Splitting into dozens of instances, Dallion leapt back. Not the best move, considering his enemy had an advantage at a distance. In a sword versus dagger fight, it was always better to remain as close as possible. However, Nil’s persistent warnings in the prison realm had managed to cause enough self-doubt for him to err on the side of caution.
Crystal fragments fell to the ground. The rectangles of moments ago hadn’t exaggerated.
Both sides instantly realized what had happened, then reacted appropriately: Phoil spun around, doing multiple circular arcs with his sword. Meanwhile, Dallion pulled off the blocker ring from his finger.
“Ruby, Gem, attack from a distance!” he ordered. Just then, Phoil burst into instances. No longer was it the meager three copies he used in the past. Over fifty instances of the boy appeared in the room, filling it completely.
Caught by surprise, Dallion tried to force split the situation, but his opponent countered. The mental force was far greater than Dallion had felt so far, almost as if he were facing a dragon. Someone with greater ability was attempting to force their version of reality. The tug of war continued for half a second, resulting in a stalemate. When reality hit, Phoil and Dallion were at different ends of the room, neither gaining the upper hand.
“So, the hunter knows tricks,” Phoil said. “I knew I should have gone for you first.”
“You aren’t a mage,” Dallion said, keeping six instances at the ready. “Who are you?”
The large boy just smiled, then burst into instances again and charged forward.
Ruby attempted a wave of wing slashes, but all of them were easily evaded. The echo controlling Phoil was exceptional at acrobatics as well as attack. Based on his movements, Dallion estimated him to be in his seventies, at least, possibly more.
Blades clashed. The Nox dagger, usually capable of shattering objects on touch, failed to cause even a crack on the shimmering surface of the sword. It seemed that the material had a few other added bonuses, which both Nil and Onda had neglected to mention.
Parrying the first attack, Dallion twisted his body, attempting a high kick at the side of the other’s face. The attack didn’t land. With lightning reflexes, Phoil let go of the sword, blocking the kick. Immediately after, he grabbed hold of Dallion’s ankle and took a step back.
The approach was both clever and perfectly executed. Even experienced fighters would have lost their footing, which was why Dallion didn’t even bother to do anything about it. Rather, he twisted his entire body, kicking Phoil in a series of different spots in five separate instances. In three of the cases, the results were less than desirable. In the remaining two, he managed to force his opponent to let go.
Ruby quickly intervened again, sending out a wing slash between the two. The attack hid Enroy‘s dead body, while at the same time preventing Phoil from charging forward again.
“You’re a noble,” Dallion said, using his music skills to affect his enemy with as much slowness and weight as possible. “Are you a count? A countess?”
“You’re so full of yourself.” The other smirked. “You think a count would waste his time on you?”
“Wouldn’t be the first time.”
Dozens of Dallion’s instances attempted to attack from different sides. All of them were constantly pushed back by Phoil’s own.
“I don’t have to kill you,” the large boy said. “Just to keep you here.”
The words sounded almost exactly like the platypain Dallion had faced recently.
“So, I can still ruin your plans?” Dallion took a step forward with his anchor instance.
“Some think that.” Phoil slashed the air with his sword. As he did, Dallion felt a slight tingling in his ears. “Music only when no one knows you’re using it.” More instances of the boy emerged, rushing forward.
Line attack! Dallion thought, doing a horizontal slice.
Any reasonable person knew that performing such an attack indoors was a terrible idea. The entire structure risked crumbling, say nothing of the dozens if not hundreds of casualties on the outside. Being in a mage’s room changed things. For a split second, purple symbols appeared as they shined through the surface illusions that covered every part of the building. Before the line of destruction had a chance to form, a loud bang erupted, everyone was tossed right at the walls behind them. Even Ruby was thrust up, drilling into the ceiling like a razor blade into cheese.
The air was knocked out of Dallion’s lungs as his back slammed against the hard surface. Waves of pain and suffocation swept through him, almost making him black out. The force disappeared, letting him peel onto the floor, gasping for air.
At the other side of the room, Phoil hadn’t been so lucky. His awakened nature had let him survive the encounter with the wall, though unconscious. Only the faint noise coming from him told Dallion that the boy remained alive.
“Gem, can you heal him?”
Err, okay, the aetherfish replied. Unlike Ruby, the familiar hadn’t been particularly useful during the fight, spending most of the time observing in utter confusion. Fortunately, healing magic was something it was fully capable of.
Dallion forced himself up. He was in considerable pain, though nothing he couldn’t handle thanks to his high body trait. Limping slightly, he made his way to Enroy’s body. There was no question that the man was dead, pierced through the torso, then suffering additional wounds during the fight between Phoil and Dallion.
“Sorry about this,” Dallion whispered. Barely knew the man, and definitely didn’t like him, but didn’t want such an outcome.
Casting a spell to summon a blanket, Dallion covered the body, then went to the unconscious Phoil. With him rendered unconscious, he posed no threat. The echo controlling him had been formidable indeed, but all the skill couldn’t compensate for low traits.
Bending down, Dallion took the Vermillion ring off the boy’s finger, then retrieved the silver glass sword. The weapon felt like a natural fit, as if it belonged to him.
“What’s the way out?” Dallion asked as he used his own Vermillion ring to transport the sword to his realm. “Nil?” he added.
There are emergency exits scattered throughout the building. All you need to do is find one and use a specific unlock spell. Alternatively, you can use a Vermillion ring to pass through.
That was interesting. So, Phoil had come prepared in more ways than one. His goal had been to kill Enroy and Dallion, then leave. That was reassuring—it meant that there was a way to avoid the shardflies outside.
“You alright, Ruby?” Dallion glanced at the ceiling.
The shardfly was trembling with such speed that it was outright vibrating. Gradually, its winds moved back out of the ceiling, allowing the creature to re-emerge.
“Anything broken?”
No, the insect said, even if it were plainly visible that his wings were chipped in several places. Flying along a spiral, it made its way to Dallion’s shoulder.
“Lux will take care of you.” Dallion then retrieved his blocker ring from the floor. “Gem, keep him alive. If he or anyone tries to attack you, vanish.”
Okay, boss, the aetherfish replied.
Gritting his teeth to best ignore the pain that came with every step, Dallion left the room, then the building altogether. The situation in the corridor was just as bad as he remembered it. A few elder mages were making an attempt to forcefully impose order, but even they found it difficult with the number of panicking apprentices. This complicated things somewhat. If Dallion tried to run, there was every chance he’d be spotted and stopped. To avoid this, he calmly made his way towards the staircase section, keeping as closely as possible to the nearby buildings.
His effort paid off. Although slow and painful, the trip off the floor wasn’t interrupted. Once on the first floor, things went a lot more smoothly. At one point, he even had an apprentice shout at him to hurry up and get back to his room. Since that was Dallion’s intention, he complied, forcing himself to run as quickly as possible.
If you keep this up, you’ll faint in a minute, Nil said.
“A minute is all I need,” Dallion hissed through his teeth. He was almost at his door. His vision had gotten slightly blurry, and yet he pushed on. Collapsing in the corridor was out of the question. A concerned mage, or apprentice, or even a well-meaning fellow novice was enough to end his chance of leaving the Learning Hall.
Gripping the handle, Dallion opened the door and stumbled inside.
“Lux,” he managed to say. “Heal me.”

2023.03.28 20:39 rasbperr1 Do you think he cares about me?

I'm Korean woman(32, F), dating a man(20, M) who is working in U.S army.
I got to know him at Dating app(Bumble) and we have been talking for for a few months.
Our first dating is in the early of January, and we lived far away in different cities in Korea, so we slept over together at hotel at first date, and we did kiss or things, but we didn't have sex because I'm inexperienced but he understood me and though I didn't expect it, and he did so sweet to me, like kissing on my forehead and holding my hands, which is one of the reasons I felt comfortable with him. The next day, we parted away and I thought he would not wanna meet me again because I didn't have sex and I'm not that interested in him at first time.
After that, he sometimes sent messages to me, and after a few weeks later, he said me he likes me and wanted to hang out again but he couldn't have relationship with me since he had to leave Korea later, and he doesn't think LDR is work out. since then, we had been sharing our daily lives via Snapchat everyday and he seemed to care about me, but we couldn't hang out until March since our fist date in January because he had been busy for work and he went back to America for holidays almost for a month.
Finally, we met in the end of March, recently, and we promised to meet at a train station around 5:30 pm. I went to a new city for the first time in my life, and so I got lost in the train station, I became late for a date and met him at 6 pm. I felt sorry for him for being late.
Our date plan is to take an air balloon flight at first day, and to go to an amusement park next day, but I had to cancel air balloon flight because of inclement weather.
Originally, we planned to go to a nice restaurant, which takes a few days for me to find out information about restaurants, but he said he ate dinner already, which I felt embarrassing. At first time, I thought he ate dinner earlier, waiting for me but I found out that he ate dinner at 5pm, even though we were supposed to meet at 5:30pm. I asked him why you ate eat dinner before I'm arriving and he said that he ate dinner because he felt so hungry.
Anyways, since I became late, I could understand him about that. He said if I wanna go to restaurant, he can go with me, but he didn't wanna eat anything. since I don't wanna eat alone at a nice restaurant, and he promised me to go to restaurants tomorrow morning and lunch, we went to hotel right away. As soon as we arrived at a hotel, he tried to have sex with me though I wanted to watch a movie and talk with him and doing it later.
Actually, in the past, he asked me If I'm really virgin and I said yes. He asked me if I have any experience of masturbation, and I said I have never been masturbated myself since I don't think it's hygienic to my vagina.
At first date, he dine out at a nice restaurant, and after arriving hotel, we watched movie and saw tiktok together, and he didn't try to sex as soon as possible but this time was different, but this time, he put his hand in my inner wear right away, and tried to take off my pants, which I felt comfortable. When he touched my lower body, touching near my vagina, I felt more likely painful than feeling good though he tried to do it gently and go slower. Though he is quite experienced, he seemed to not find my vagina since it's my first time. Though I said I would have sex with him, I felt insecure and not ready, so I couldn't have sex with him(PIV sex) though I helped him to ejaculate by hand.
Before a date, he asked if I would ever shave down, and I heard shaving down is socially norm in his country, so I did Brazilian waxing for hygiene and it felt so painful, and I tried to make an effort to have sex with him this time. But he seemed to not feel good about it, and said If I would not have sex with him, we don't need to come hotel and rather go to an amusement park right away, Actually, I'm afraid that he would not go to an amusement park if I didn't agree to have sex, and I just like to be with him. unlike last time, when he held my hands and kissed on my forehead while sleeping, he said he felt tired and wanted to sleep since he slept 9 pm to 2 am last night. I asked him why didn't sleep last night and he said he just couldn't sleep. He asked me to turn off light at 9pm since we met at 6pm , and I had to eat dinner alone in a dark room, relying on TV light, which I didn't feel comfortable, and I wondered if he didn't go out with me, why he dated with me.
although he made a reservation the hotel, where he had been before, I didn't know this hotel has almost no privacy like there's only transparent curtain between bedroom and bathroom, and I don't feel comfortable about taking shower and using bathroom.
And things happened. When I took a shower, I found out some kinds of trouble near my groin, and I became panicked because I rarely get any skin troubles near my groin and he did oral to me, which I didn't ask to him, so I suspected it might be some kinds of std like herpes.
since I have sensitive skin, and I knew that HSV2 type has no cure, I became so insecure and woke him up in the middle of showering, and asked to him about his past history of sex. He said he had sex 20 times in his life with 5 partners and he had never experienced any outbreak in his life. I showed him my body and he said it's not big deal and it might be just skin irritating. After that, I googled and looked that part under the bright light on bed, and he asked me if I'm ok.
I know it could be not considerate for him about asking std and If I would so worried a lot, them I would not have any sexual intimacy with him. Though I didn't ask him oral to me, but somehow it happened and I was so confused at that time.
Anyways, he fell asleep again, but I didn't wanna spend that night just sleeping without watching movies or talking, and I tried to wake him up like lying on his body or touched his body, and played some planks on him. I admitted that I behaved like a child who wanted to get attention, and he said he just wanna sleep.
And I tried to sleep, but his phone had been kept alarming from Snapchat in the middle of night, and I felt weird and checked his phone. Though I didn't know his passwords, I could see Snapchat notifications in the screen and I found out those messages were from a variety of girls, at least 5 girls.
Though I assume that he might be talking with other girls, I didn't expect as much and I lose my control. At first time, I tried to ask him calmly why they are, but it felt like he ignored my word intentionally, and all this situation seems like he didn't respect me. Finally, I loud my voice to him and firmly said I'm so uncomfortable about it and asked him to explain who they are. he said they are just friends like that in America, and the reason he kept sending messages to me is due to time difference.
And when I asked him if he is using other dating apps, he said yes, and he is different from what I expected. Before that night, I had never asked him about other girls, since I believed what he said that he likes me.
in the next morning around 7 am, he woke up and said to me that he didn't feel good about last night. He felt like I woke him up at least 10 times, and I cried a few times and he said he didn't understand me and he felt like it's crazy. He said he is not in the mood of going to an amusement park today, and just wanted to leave after eating breakfast. I apologized him about it and said I felt so insecure and unstable yesterday since he didn't eat out with me, do nothing with me, and just kept sleeping from 9 am. But he seemed to be cold. I asked him if he doesn't like me anymore, and he said he doesn't like me as much. I asked him if he doesn't wanna hang out with me anymore, and he said he wanna go to amusement park with me maybe another time, but he is not in the mood of going there today. And he left hotel.
But after 10 minutes he left, I heard that someone knocking on the door hardly, and it's him. He said the reason he came back to hotel is he couldn't get a taxi, so he had to wait a bus. it seems like he didn't take a public transportation easily, so I decided to go to train station together with him. But I'm not sure how he felt about me. Because he hold my hands while going to the train station. And we went to a cafe, and he didn't say anything, just eating quickly and left, leaving me alone at a cafe.
I felt regret about last night, losing cool and waking him up a lot, and even though I felt uncomfortable about him, I should have asked him early in the next morning or just don't hang out with him next time, but I became emotional and I couldn't control my feelings since I became liked him for over time. I just wanna go to an amusement park with him and have a good time.
But I got hurts a lot from him since he seemed to not care about me at all unlike first date.
Actually, I got a skin disease after meeting him on first date since he kept smoking before me and touched my body without cleaning hands, and I had to get treatments in a hospital for a few months to be healed, but I didn't tell him about him since he didn't meant to it. And before he leaving me, I talked about him that I was sick but he just saw me with a blank look, and reacted like it's none of his business. he just said 'so what? you got cured right now and that's all'.
After he went to his place, he sent me messages that he arrived, and since then, we haven't talked so far.
Although he said he likes me, I'm not sure.

2023.03.28 20:21 HotMockolate [M4M] Supernatural Found Family Plots

Howdy! I'm Lanya, 22 years old, and I've been RPing for nearly 9 years. I'm a literate roleplayer, averaging between 1-5 paragraphs per post, though typically to the longer side. Length varies depending on how busy the scene is!
Today I'm looking for a roleplay in which we would each play multiple characters to form a ragtag group of supernatural beings who all live together, in a world where supernatural beings (vampires, werewolves, witches, demons, angels, whatever you like) live in secret amongst the human race.
I've put MxM in the search as I'd like for the story to centre mainly around a MxM romance, however I still want us to each play a few characters to form the found family, and I'm open to other romances occurring for the other characters (MxM, FxM, or FxF!). I'd like the plot to be a bit of slice of life and romance, with arcs that would contain a lot of action too! I love angst and fluff to balance each other out!
I get really into my OCs and my partners OCs, so I'm hoping we can create a lovely little gang together that we'll both come to adore!
I have a couple of plot ideas we can go with, and I'm open to you bringing some ideas to the table too, if you like!
Plot 1: A human is kidnapped in the dead of night, knocked out and brought to a strange place. They wake up in a bedroom, in a surprisingly comfortable bed, only to find that an argument is brewing between an odd gaggle of people in the room with him:
"Oh my God, dude, you can't just kidnap random people to drink their blood! We have blood pouches for a reason!"
"But it's not fresh, I just wanted some-"
"No, not happening. You have to get rid of — oh shit... he's awake."
One thing leads to another, and the human ends up staying with the strange group.
Plot 2: Hell vs Heaven. There's been an ongoing war between angels and demons for centuries. Character A is a demon and Character B is a fallen angel who is seeking to switch sides in the war. When Character A is on Earth, in human disguise and on the hunt, Character B confronts him out in the open and demands to be taken back to Hell with him to join their ranks.
Thanks for reading! I RP on Reddit and discord, so feel free to shoot me a message, I'd love to hear back! Please tell me which plot you're interested in and a bit about yourself!

I've put MxM in the search as I'd like for the story to centre mainly around a MxM romance, however I still want us to each play a few characters to form the found family, and I'm open to other romances occurring for the other characters (MxM, FxM, or FxF!). I'd like the plot to be a bit of slice of life and romance, with arcs that would contain a lot of action too! I love angst and fluff to balance each other out!
I get really into my OCs and my partners OCs, so I'm hoping we can create a lovely little gang together that we'll both come to adore!
I have a couple of plot ideas we can go with, and I'm open to you bringing some ideas to the table too, if you like!
Plot 1: A human is kidnapped in the dead of night, knocked out and brought to a strange place. They wake up in a bedroom, in a surprisingly comfortable bed, only to find that an argument is brewing between an odd gaggle of people in the room with him:
"Oh my God, dude, you can't just kidnap random people to drink their blood! We have blood pouches for a reason!"
"But it's not fresh, I just wanted some-"
"No, not happening. You have to get rid of — oh shit... he's awake."
One thing leads to another, and the human ends up staying with the strange group.
Plot 2: Hell vs Heaven. There's been an ongoing war between angels and demons for centuries. Character A is a demon and Character B is a fallen angel who is seeking to switch sides in the war. When Character A is on Earth, in human disguise and on the hunt, Character B confronts him out in the open and demands to be taken back to Hell with him to join their ranks.
Thanks for reading! I RP on Reddit and discord, so feel free to shoot me a message, I'd love to hear back! Please tell me which plot you're interested in and a bit about yourself!

2023.03.28 20:18 HNY5783 The 'Shnorrer' subculture

Can someone explain the 'shnorrer' subculture and economy? Someone arrives at Shul or the grocery store or knocks on your door with a sob story and gets some 'permit' from some rabbinical group saying he's legit. He gets letters printed up in multiple languages. He gets a portable credit card machine. He gets to make 60-second appeals in Shuls around the city. Who is paying for all this? Where is the infrastructure that supports this system? How much do the credit card processors take off the top? The clearinghouses that are cashing the checks? Has anyone really looked into this world?

THE SINS OF OUR FATHERS - A DDMA WHAT-IF? STORY
Chapter 1: Who's...Missing?

November 3rd, 2017…the day of the Culture Festival. An event where the children of Japan can put their motivation and skills into creating incredible artistic achievements. From music, to paintings, physical abilities, and so much more. For many, it’s a chance to show to the world what they’re capable of, or to just take a break from tedious school subjects and have some fun.
However, it’s also a chance for people to entice others into checking out something they have a lot of passion or interest in. And in Salvato City, 8 members of a High School Literature Club have been working hard on their preparations for their event, in order to get some new recruits, and show off just how amazing Literature can be when you look past the surface.
In particular, an 18 year old boy lies down in bed, already wide-awake and eager to get up and prepare for this important day. Though, he ends up waiting under his red bed sheet, which is covered with 3 different types of blankets in order to keep him warm during the Fall season. As he waits, he stares at his phone, laying down on his desk and charger plugged into it. In a way, it was like his red eyes were staring daggers into it, as if he was some kind of animal stalking its prey.
However, due to his impatience, he decides to just get up, groaning a bit as he moves the sheets off and sits up, stretching for a moment. Then, he stands on the floor, with an eager smile on his face.
???: “Okay! Festival time!”
Without another moment to spare, the boy takes his phone and turns off his 6:30 alarm, before taking his school uniform off his computer chair (Which he put there ahead of time) and changing out of his Dragon Ball-themed pajamas, complete with fuzzy Christmas socks. And after getting dressed, the boy takes a moment to inspect himself in the mirror.
Immediately, he takes notice of his long, messy red hair, and tries to comb it back a bit with his hands. Normally, he prefers to have shorter hair, since it’s easier to manage, but he decided to change it up during the Summer Break in order to see what it was like. Admittedly, he found that it wasn’t too bad, but he still preferred it shorter.
As for his uniform, it…wasn’t exactly too proper. When he first started at Salvato High, he did wear the entire thing. The gray jacket, orange vest, white button shirt, etc. However, after a couple of months, he tried to figure out what he could get away with when it came to the dress code. And despite the trouble it gave him at times, he found a way to make the attire less stuffy.
He wore the white-button shirt (Since you obviously couldn’t go around topless in High School), but he rolled the sleeves up, and didn’t bother to button the two buttons around the collar of the shirt, which exposed a bit of his chest area. Plus, he didn’t bother with putting on the red tie either. But he did wear the orange vest. The gray jacket, however? No thanks.
As for the blue jeans, he didn’t make any adjustments to those. But he did have a belt, which was covered by a black jacket with red accents tied around his waist. The boy always wanted to be prepared in case rain ever starts, and to have some extra pockets to store items he felt he needed. And in terms of his feet, he wore some blue-colored socks with a ring pattern on them, alongside a standard pair of black sneakers with red accents.
After making sure he was properly dressed, the boy grabbed his phone, put it in his pocket, and walked out of his room, where he went through the hallway of the house, past the bathroom, a supply closet, his mother’s room, and his older sister’s room, who wasn’t present due to being busy with College in Osaka.
Quickly, he ends up in the living room of the house, where a couch placed in front of the window that showed the front lawn was present, which faced a shelf with a flat-screen TV, different game consoles, a disc player, and more. However, he didn’t pay it any mind as he speed-walked towards the kitchen, where he came across a familiar woman waiting for her coffee to brew from the coffee machine on the counter.
The woman was around her late 40s, but had a somewhat youthful vibe to her thanks to her make-up. It also helped that she had red hair as well, but a lighter shade. And she was dressed up in black dress with red accents, alongside black leggings, and had a pair of glasses covering her white eyes. Once the boy rushes in, preparing himself a bowl of cereal, the woman takes notice and smiles.
???: “Good morning, Itsuki.”
Itsuki: “Morning, Mom.”
Narumi: “Hehe. Already excited for the Festival, huh?”
Itsuki: “Yep! I didn’t even bother to wait for my alarm clock!”
Narumi: “Lucky you. I never had that kind of luck when I was your age.”
Narumi: “In fact, I had to get up around 6:00 AM in order to prepare for the Orchestra Club’s band recitals!”
Narumi: “Good thing Coffee has always had my back!”
As if to confirm that claim, the Coffee Maker on the counter finishes brewing the Coffee in Narumi's MCR cup, leading to her grabbing it and blowing at it in order to cool it down. Meanwhile, Itsuki pours milk into his bowl of cereal, as he continues the conversation.
Itsuki: “Eh. Personally, a bit of milk or water will do the trick for me.”
Narumi: “For a while, sure. But once you start reaching my age, you’re gonna need something STRONG to get you going.”
Itsuki just shrugs his shoulders, not caring too much about his mother’s comment, and then heads to the kitchen table nearby, taking a seat and munching down on his cereal. However, he takes a moment to look at the batch of cupcakes (decorated to look like cats) set in metallic trays on the counter, smiling with anticipation and pride, remembering his contributions to his club’s Culture Festival Event.
Joining him at the table, Narumi sits down next to Itsuki with the coffee in hand, as she stares out at the full-screened doors, showing the backyard of the house. Complete with a tool shed, bench, and a swing-set with two seats. It may not have been as big as the backyard from their previous house, but she still found it intimate and pleasing to the eye.
Narumi: “So? Any big plans for today, other than the Literature Club, the Macbeth play, and your class event?”
Itsuki: “Not particularly. I was just gonna check out the other stalls and what-not during my free time.”
Itsuki: “I’m really eager to eat some Takoyaki!”
Narumi: “Mmm. And you’re sure there’s nothing else of importance?”
Narumi gives a bit of a sly smile when she says this, which makes Itsuki turn his eyes to the cupcakes in the kitchen as he gives an awkward smile. After that response, she realizes she may have touched a bit of a sensitive subject, and tries to figure out what’s bugging him.
Narumi: “Hey…why the long face?”
Itsuki: “You know exactly why. I’ve told you what’s been going on with her lately.”
Narumi: “Sure, but I wasn’t expecting that kind of look, considering the way you think of her.”
Itsuki: “...Guess that’s not inaccurate…”
Itsuki: “But at the same time, you’ve seen first-hand the way Natsuki can be at times.”
Narumi: “Indeed…and I can’t say I don’t get some kind of weird feeling from it, either…”
Ever since Narumi was told of this short, pink-haired girl by her son, she grew a great amount of interest in the subject. Not just because it was something her kid cared about, and she felt it was her duty as his mother to listen. But because this could be the first time Itsuki has ever felt a spark with another person. A first love.
Needless to say, any parent who cares about their child would keep their eyes and ears peeled for any sort of information on a possible partner for them. And as she heard more and more about her, Narumi was both happy…and a bit concerned. Particularly the feisty attitude and how she interacts with other people. Granted, Itsuki’s never really gotten close with anyone that could have been a problem past Middle School, so…maybe it’s just a case of “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover?”
And when she finally got to see Natsuki for the first time, she was relieved to know that was exactly it. However…there was something nagging at her in the back of her brain every time they were in the same room. Specifically, her short and skinny body, and the way she interacted with her. It was almost like…there was something…’off’ about her.
However, Narumi felt it wasn’t her place to do anything about it, as while she definitely was on good terms with Natsuki and they talk a bit when they’re around each other, she wasn’t too close with her and thought that whatever it is that’s beneath the surface, Itsuki could handle it well enough. Assuming he doesn’t lose his temper, which would be unlikely at this point.
But…she knew her son had feelings for this girl. And she could tell Natsuki felt similarly, too. But strangely, the two have never sealed the deal. Despite greatly supporting the two of them to go through with it…nothing ever comes out of it. At least…not on Itsuki’s end. From what he’s told her, Narumi believes that the pink-haired girl might be intentionally avoiding her feelings for some unknown reason.
And if you think Narumi found this annoying, then Itsuki found this infuriating at times. Despite his many attempts to figure out her feelings, or to express his own, Natsuki always tries to weasel her way out of it. In particular, when making cupcakes for the Festival, the two started to throw frosting at each other out of fun, which led to the redhead pinning the pink girl down on the ground.
During this moment…the two looked at each other with this…”longing” in their eyes. However, after a few seconds, Natsuki awkwardly tried to get out of his grasp and wave it off as if it never happened. To Itsuki, it almost feels like she wants nothing to do with him nowadays, even though they still spend plenty of time together, in and out of school.
So…what’s her deal? Why can’t she tell him anything? This question has been bothering the young boy for these past couple of months, and he’s sick of it. But back to the present, Narumi does her best to reassure her son of this troubling relationship.
Narumi: “I…will admit that her being all secretive and crap is irritating.”
Narumi: “However, she must have a good reason for doing so. You don’t just ignore your feelings so easily.”
Itsuki: “Sure…but at this point, I figured we’re on good enough terms that she could just…say whatever to me.”
Itsuki: “And you know better than anyone that I hate it when people hide stuff from me.”
Narumi: “Of course…it’s the same case for me, too.”
Narumi: “But that doesn’t mean she can keep it up forever. Sooner or later, she’ll have to tell the truth.”
Narumi: “So, you must be patient until that happens.”
Itsuki: “Pretty sure I’ve already been patient! I’ve been dealing with this for 5 months!”
Itsuki: “Like, okay, I get it can be intimidating to open your heart to someone, but it wouldn’t hurt to say SOMETHING!”
Itsuki: “At times, I doubt she even likes me all that much!”
Narumi: “If that was the case, then she wouldn’t spend so much time around you.”
Itsuki: “Exactly! Give me a clear answer, oh my god!”
Now irritated, Itsuki goes back to eating his cereal, and manages to finish it. He even drinks all the milk from the bowl, too. And as he puts the bowl and spoon he used into the dish-washer to get it cleaned, Narumi speaks to him from the kitchen table.
Narumi: “Itsuki...I don’t want you to give up on her yet.”
Itsuki: “I didn’t say anything about doing so.”
Narumi: “But I could tell it was crossing your mind. And I suggest you ignore that thought.”
Narumi: “Natsuki may not be fully honest with you, but it’s clear to me she needs someone like you.”
Narumi: “From what I’ve seen of her, she’s had it rough when it comes to company.”
Narumi: “And you’re one of the few people who makes her feel special.”
Itsuki: “...I know.”
Itsuki: “I just wish she could say that to me already.”
Narumi: “She will. Don’t rush things.”
Narumi: “Once she’s ready, I’m certain it’ll all make sense, and we can all laugh about it later.”
Itsuki: “Hm…maybe…”
Finally getting a somewhat genuine smile back, Itsuki walks back to the kitchen table and gives her a short hug, before going to the bathroom to brush his teeth, clean up his hair, etc. But as he does so, he keeps thinking back to his mother’s words. A part of him feels it’s just empty promises, but…he knows she has a point about Natsuki.
Sure…he doesn’t tolerate lying in any way. Especially when it makes him or other people suffer in some manner. But that doesn’t change the fact that Natsuki Gushiken…is an amazing person. Snarky, cute, fun to be around, and overall, a kind soul that just has a hard time expressing it, and feels the need to guard herself from anyone that might hurt her.
From their first encounter on the rooftop during lunch to making cupcakes for the festival, Itsuki has known she was a much different person compared to anyone he’s met before and after. Someone that, even on a crappy day, can make him smile and forget that something’s going wrong for a while. Sure, it may sound corny. But in the Mirai Family? Corniness is a part of the bloodline.

2023.03.28 19:55 severus_please [M4F] Russian Revolution- A historical prompt!

Homecoming. After 12 years. Arkady Lobanov was not a sentimental person but memories of his childhood came flooding in as he got closer to his destination - St. Petersburg.
“You know, my father would always fondly recall his trips to St. Petersburg and he would always come home with gifts for me and my sister.” James Pierre, Arkady’s friend remarked
“I did accompany him when I was 9 years old to meet his great-aunt Sofia Belinsky, but I hardly remember anything from the trip except that I fell of a horse and got a hiding from mother.” He continued as he surveyed the chequered board in front of them.
“Ah! I see that you almost had me distracted Arkady. But trust me, I am getting better at this” James moved his bishop to counter Arkady’s attack.
After a brief pause Arkady smiled and replied “I agree that you are getting better. And yet, you completely forgot about my knight who is in position to take your queen and with that this game”.
The sun was just sinking in the horizon and one of the train crew members went around the carriage lighting up the candles. James shook his head and looked distraught “I thought I almost had this. Guess you are a genius after all!”
“Or that I have had plenty of time to practice with my father” Arkady replied smartly as he rose from his seat.
**
Dinner was soon served and over the main course of roasted beef served with potatoes and mashed turnips, the men discussed their impeding trip.
“I do have to warn you, the Russian parties are even more boring than the French ones. Worse there aren’t enough girls our age who would be in attendance either. It will be old hairy warlocks, members of the Duma boring everyone with stories of legislative assemblies and quite a few married ladies with saggy tits fawning all over you to start a summer affair”
Arkady smiled behind his glass of wine. “It can’t be that bad. Personally, I am very excited to visit after 12 years.”
“While I understand your enthusiasm, I am afraid I can’t mirror that sentiment. Believe me, I would skip this trip entirely if I could” James sounded exasperated.
“I am sure not having to wake up for the lectures early morning would be a welcome change. Plus, we could hunt for game and go horse riding. Camp in the forest. As a matter of fact, an occasional liaison with a married woman wouldn’t be so bad do you think? I mean they would probably have more experience won’t they?” Arkady probed.
“Hah! To think that Arkady, the son of pious and celibate Mathematics Professor Mikhail Lobanov is interested in steamy liaisons with married woman of the Russian Aristocracy!” mocked James. “Alright Arkady. I see that you are a man with a mission. I don’t hope to dissuade you nor rain on your excitement. Let’s toast to a summer of adventures” James raised his glass. Arkady soon followed suit, a flicker of shadow crossing his face at the mention of the word mission.
**
Five carriages away, 2 men played cards while another was in deep conversation with a passenger. The three of them were travelling together. The train horn signalled the approaching station and one of the men rose from their seat. Wordlessly, he picked up his luggage and bid his goodbyes to the other man. The train slowed down and stopped at the small village town – Gatchina where this man got off the train and hurried off the empty station. This man who went by the name of Vadim, would band up with the Bolsheviks and gather resources and men for their eventual mission while the other two men would work in the shadows for Arkady.
**
By 8 o clock, they had reached St. Petersburg and James and Arkady were met on the bustling station by Yuri Nosov – a butler arranged by James’ father and were escorted to their horse carriage. St. Petersburg looked bright and crowded and dirty and they were soon brought to the mansion were they would be staying the night arranged once again by James’ father.
“Mr. Ivanovich apologises to not being able to receive you personally as he was called to the court for an urgent matter. You have.. heard the news of the unrest in the capital I am sure? These are dangerous times.” The wife of Mr. Peter welcomed the young men, smiling and eyeing them surreptitiously.
“Seems like Mrs. Ivanovich might have taken a shine for you Arkady” James teased him teasingly as they settled in their rooms.
“I did warn you about old married ladies here”
“I just think she was nervous welcoming us James. Your father is obviously important to their business and they didn’t want to offend us”
“My naïve friend, that’s not all of it, I am sure – ”
A knock on the door interrupted their conversation and Yuri handed over a letter to James.
James tore open the letter and reading its contents, smirked and yawned “Here is the invitation for our first party. The Khilakov’s. Father warned me that they would court us. Lord Basil has recently found himself out of favor with the Tsar as his business venture in the east is overrun because of the Japanese invasion of Manchuria. But I am told his wife has an appetite for young men so this could be an interesting introduction to the debauchery of the Russian aristocracy for you my friend.”
James dropped down on his bed as he handed Arkady the invitation. Arkady’s heart was thumping against his chest as he read the contents of the invitation. It was all coming together as planned and yet he found it moving faster than he thought. He stayed awake late into the night, as dark thoughts about the future plagued him even as his friend snored beside him without a care of what was to come.
**
Privet Comrades! Congratulations if you made it this far. I have pulled this one off the archives. Basically, the premise of the story is that my character is a Bolshshevik revolutionary who is now in Russia - recruiting and gathering resources, money, influence to ignite the revolution! To this extent, he is going to use his own heritage/ his friend's connections to gain entry into the rich/upper class society of Russia.
Who does he meet during his mission? A MILFy widow looking for companionship? An almost broke socialite looking to hedge her risks and welcome the regime change? Or a Duchess disillusioned with the going ons of the Russian Aristocracy? The possibilities are endless.
(The starter is obviously just to initiate/ spring forth your imagination and isn't set on stone).
Now who I am looking for? - A detailed/ creative writer who not only loves smut but also a good story build up. One who isn't afraid to drive the story when the need arises and also hopefully bring to life this intricate tapestry of politics, struggle, war, debauchery and violence!
Discord is preferred.
So if any of this interests you, do hit me up!

2023.03.28 19:40 HuntSlow1135 Neighbours Dart Board thuds through my wall.

Hi I live in a very poor part of Burnley in a rented terraced house. We are a family of three: Dad,Mum and daughter. Basically moved into a recently renovated terraced housing association property in a run down area of Burnley in August 2020. The first year of living here was pretty much uninteresting although I did notice lots of alcoholics and drug dealing in our street but thought it comes with the territory as the rent is cheap dirt cheap.
After being here for a year, I thought ok, neighbour to the left has had a year of disturbing our sleep and pumping music playing darts and dog barking till 6 in the morning. So I wrote a polite letter and posted it through his door, big mistake. This guy knocked on our door and was on the war path.
Started telling us he lived here for 27years and we are not English so not to speak to him, bare in mind he speaks with a Burnley accent, I think our South African English is a closer to the queen's English than his Burnley dialect. Anyways he was not bothered so I complained to the council about the noise. They said I should record it, I did they took three months to investigate and instead of writing him a warning or something, they just referred me to a mediator which was a total waste of time.
Basically I want to go the legal route, does a solicitor have the power to write him a ceace and desist or something letter to try and get this annoying low class animal will an illegal breed dog to shut up.
Regards Sleepless in Burnley

2023.03.28 19:37 BluebirdOk2007 Gecko(The Boys/With these perks) vs Wolverine (Comics)

Lifting Yourself Up (-400): The powers you have gained here work just like an invisible muscle. Ignore them, and they will stagnate. But actively use and train them, and you will see just how far dedication can take you. And now, all other abilities in your repertoire gain the same potential. Exercising your powers will increase their strength, no matter of what nature they might be or how mighty they already are. Unlike normal exercise, where after a certain point further progress becomes simply impossible, you will always see the same gains if you keep on putting in the time and effort. Don't neglect you real muscles, though. Playing superman is only fun if you also look the part
Hypnos Gene* (300CP): That which does not kill you, makes you stronger. Of course depending on who you talk to this could easily be a load of bullshit, but some seem determined to prove it right. This is an incredibly rare gene, rarer than even the genes that bond the host with Progenitor and its derivatives. It works by killing the weaker cells through natural selection, leaving only the strongest to keep the organism ongoing and encouraging the reproduction of the better cells. However, keep in mind that this is an extremely slow process, so don't expect to take on giants for a good long time... but one day you could. Time will be your greatest ally with this... a very slow, but steady ally.
Supernatural Savant (-600): People have all sorts of talents. Some are good at sports, some have amazing voices, some are great at computer games, and some are ridiculously good at using their superpowers. Wait, scratch that, the last one is just you. You have an inborn talent for using any extraordinary abilities you might have in your arsenal, and coming up with new uses for them. In just a few weeks, you could go from only being able to use rudimentary telekinesis for the movement of small objects to creating barriers with it, easily shaping and moving gases and liquids, affecting things you cannot perceive with your senses, diverting and controlling energies such as lightning, and feeling your surroundings through telekinetic feelers. One might even wonder if the original power was capable of such feats, or if you invented them yourself. But there’s no need for wonderment: if you diligently train and experiment with your abilities, you will see yourself able to use them in ways impossible to grasp for any others, pushing both the power and yourself beyond their limits. So long as you are creative, the various tricks and specializations you invent this way will allow you to advance your power in ways beyond just raw strength, and perhaps topple even giants with the metaphorical sling
Misery Loves Company (-600): All the negativity you experience in life - all the fear, anger, and jealousy - are, as their name suggests, not something one would like to feel. At least not most of the time. In combat though, that bit of anger can mean the difference between staying down and losing or getting up again for one last round. In your case, said difference is far beyond mere mentality and adrenaline. As you feel more and more miserable, no matter what shape that misery might take, you will see yourself become hardier, in both mind and body. You’ll find enemy attacks registering less and less in your mind as you shrug off even the most gruesome injuries, ignoring the pain and soldiering ever onwards despite how they should normally hinder you. Even as a limbless wreck knocking on Death’s door, you would still find it in you to knock over your adversaries like a bowling pin and tear them to pieces with your teeth. Your wounds just make you fight all that harder, letting a weak teenager shatter bones like glass, and you become more in tune with your body and surroundings, seemingly dodging attacks on instinct you couldn’t have seen and moving with the grace of a martial arts master. This also affects your powers, as you are using all available resources to bash some heads in. Somebody who could scarcely lift a rock on a good day might just tear their foes in half, if they were cornered enough, and use their powers with a focus and skill they normally couldn’t have dreamed of.
Blood Type + (Discount Medic): You are a universal donor and receiver both with blood and plasma and produce much more lifeblood for such purposes without changes to your diet being required. You could give enough of each for eight guys without keeling over, receiving either from any creature that shares your form, and your blood has no shelf life allowing it to be stored indefinitely even in hot temperatures. You are also able to transfer exact copies of any powers or perks you possess via blood with the exact specifications entirely up to you. Abilities thus given to others will grow over time and with use. Note: Blood transfusion is not the only means to pass on any abilities via blood, if you just want to put a few drops in someone’s drink that works too.
This Single Dream [400 CP] The last thing Miracleman and Liz Moran were expecting when their daughter was born was for her to speak only minutes out of the womb, or for her to become the most advanced being in the universe before her first birthday. Your own children will see similar growth in their bodies, minds, and powers. They’ll inherit all of your powers, surpassing you as infants, and by the time they’re adults their abilities will vastly outstrip even that. This applies to any superpowers and natural abilities, as well as traits like strength and intelligence.
Miraculous Growth [600 CP] Following his attempted murder in orbit, Kid Miracleman flew below the radar for two decades under the guise of his secret identity, Johnny Bates. Despite barely using his powers at all during that time, they didn’t atrophy. Quite the opposite, in fact. Kid Miracleman grew so strong he was able to effortlessly beat Miracleman into unconsciousness. You see similar retention and growth in your strength in power. It never weakens through disuse, instead growing more powerful over time. This allows any kind of superpower to grow without limit.

2023.03.28 19:34 Calypthea Accidentally a Dungeon Chp. 3


Previous Next>
For a time, I remain silent and unfocused, simply processing the stress and reminding myself to breathe. Not that I have any lungs to do that with, but the idea’s the same. You know, as a dungeon, I didn’t really expect the first major threat to me to be a bunch of tall birds. More than ever before now, I’m desperate to find out more about the outside world. Today showed quite clearly the price that comes with ignorance.
The big question though, is how? How can I prepare for the world, when everything beyond me is blurred out like looking through a shower door? Heck, the only reason I know it’s night right now is that the ground in my domain is dark and shadowy.
Perhaps feeling my dour mood, I catch Jackie casting her eyes around in thought, before both her ears stand straight at attention and she waves at me fervently. I guess she’s thought of an idea and wants me to pay attention? Now that she can feel me watching, she begins miming at her eyes, and across our bond, I get vague wisps of emotion. I can’t really explain it, but it feels like she saying to me, “Oh, oh! Use me, use me!”
I’m about to softly thank her for the thought and gently let her down, I can’t exactly risk sending my strongest scion out to scout after all, when the protest dies in my throat. I shouldn’t forget, this is a world of magic after all, maybe she’s suggesting I can literally use her eyes for myself? At that Jackie nods so emphatically that I worry her kneck might break. That’s, well…huh. I guess I won’t really know if it’s possible or not until I try.
At first, I feel like a bit of a fool trying to blindly invoke a spell or unknown ritual, but as I let my preconceptions fall away and just focus solely on Jackie, I begin to feel it. That intangible thread connecting her and me, dungeon and scion, it’s like a path of golden silk swaying ephemerally in the breeze. And now that I know it’s there and can concretely perceive it, it’s suddenly not the only one. A similar thread binds me to Giorno, and more spindly ones stretch out to each of my spawned denizens in turn and connect back to their spawner’s own scions as well. I even see a new one weaving itself into existence as it connects to my fish spawner, where my newest scion is awaiting the last few minutes till their own birth into the world. It’s a spiderweb of gilded strands, and only one word comes to mind to describe it:
Magical
All I have to do is follow that path to Jackie, and I’m treated to what it’s like to see the world, literally, through her eyes. Behind us is the tree, stretching high and wide into the night like a majestic pillar supporting the sky itself. With a few hops, Jackie climbs up onto the biggest root nearby, and I can now see that the tree itself takes up almost half of a small island resting within the same lake I had expanded out into. Beyond that lies a rim of short snow-capped peaks, completely encircling the lake, placing us in a breathtaking valley between mountains. No wait, those mountains are too close, and too short to be frosted over like that in this weather. Rather, it must be that we’re in a caldera! Those are no peaks, but the jagged rim of an ancient, collapsed, super-volcano!
My excitement and awe must be coming through quite clearly to Jackie because she’s practically vibrating with enthusiasm as well. Like a tour guide waiting to show me the best for last, she patiently waits for the wind to die down before turning her attention to the now glossy still surface of the lake. To say the sight stole my breath away would be a grave understatement. There the tapestry of stars has become perfectly recreated in all its majesty; a mirror that leaves me momentarily confused as to which side held the heavens, and which the imitation. I’d never seen so many stars and colors so clearly before. Back on earth, I could drive for miles and miles from home, yet the light pollution would leave only a few bright specks even that far from the cities. Here, it felt like I’d truly gotten to see the night for the first time in either of my lives. Somewhere in my mind, I idly note that there’s a moon for this world as well, just like in my last, if not a bit bigger.
We stay like that for a while yet, just admiring the view together. I’m awash with feelings of peace and contentment, while I can feel Jackie herself beaming with pride and joy that she’s managed to do so much to improve my mood. Though I lack the physical arms for it, I focus on our bond and try to impart the feeling of my biggest and warmest of hugs. It's not much, but it's all I can do to show my appreciation for such a sweet and kindhearted scion.
We’re interrupted by the ding of my UI, it seems the time has come to greet the newest members of our group, so I part from Jackie’s point of view with a final thank you. Breaching the surface of the water with nary a ripple, rise a pair of bewitching betta fish with bodies the size of a person's head, and large flowing fins gently extending away from them. One is a pure glossy white with ebony accents around the eyes and fins, with a large crescent symbol of the same color on her forehead. The other fish exactly mirrors their twin detail for detail, with only their colors being reversed.
Considering this clear night that they were born under, the perfect name comes to mind for both of them. For the ivory fish, I name her Selene, after the goddess representing the moon and ever-lasting change. For her twin, I name her Hecate as her inky scales remind me of the goddess associated with the new moon, witchcraft, and the boundary between places. Taking a closer look at their stat sheet now, I do indeed find that they are jointly treated as my fish scion.
[Selene, lvl 1
Special Abilities: Entwined Fate
Magical Affinities: Life, Water, Lunar, Light
Titles: None]
[Hecate, lvl 1
Special Abilities: Entwined Fate
Magical Affinities: Life, Water, Lunar, Dark
Titles: None]
[Entwined Fate: The fates of the twin scions are bound together. Any damage dealt to one is halved and then shared with the other.]
Wow, talk about twin power, born with quite a lot of magical affinities and a huge MP pool each, plus that amazing ability. It may seem like a detriment at first, but the ability to spread out damage could actually be very strong if my hopes about healing magic are correct. Speaking of, I wonder if they know any magic already since I’d designated them the support role. Selene and Hecate just glance at each other, and then back in the direction of my core simultaneously, both giving off a distinct “Don’t ask us, we just got here” vibe. Heh, fair enough I’d say. In that case, your primary task will be to figure it out! Figure out how to access and utilize your mana to the desired effects, and once you’ve got it all worked out I’ll need you to help teach the others as well.
I hope that’s not too unreasonable an ask, considering I don’t know the first thing about magic myself. Though, if it’s anything like how I move around mana to do things based on what I’m imagining, then maybe it won’t be too hard for them. In any case, I go ahead and upgrade Selene and Hecate to the same lvl as my other scions while I’m here. Even though it costs double the usual per fish and I have to upgrade them both at the same time or not at all, for a total of 4x more expensive than Jackie or Giorno was. Note to self, be careful of looking for loopholes next time, cause this universe does not seem to be happy with me bending the rules this way. I’m sure the twins will be worth the extra effort this time though, so I look forward to what they might be able to do someday.
With the Twins now properly named and given their duty, it’s time I focus on rectifying the scouting situation. Jackie was an immense help already in that field, but I still don’t want to send her out directly either. I’d barely begun to think on the issue before I noticed a certain frog was already lining up rabbits by the lakeside to pick up their own poison dart frog passengers. It seems the ever-capable Giorno was already anticipating my desire to scout with the denizens, and had already come up with a pairing plan to help them deal with whatever dangers would await them.
Honestly, what did I do to deserve such dependable scions? Making sure my pride and appreciation shone through the bond, I asked him to also coordinate with Selene and Hecate to get their fish scouting out the rest of the lake. With Giorno managing things I’m suddenly rather confident that we’ll have all the information we need for future expansions. Technically, since I got so much from the horde of herons, I’m fairly certain I had enough to immediately expand out to cover the rest of this island, but there’s no way I’m willing to jump right into that so soon after the lake incident.
Instead, what I could really use is some kind of map room, so that all the scouting information could be properly recorded, not that I have the ink or paper for such a thing anyways, it’s not like life would be so easy as to give me something like that for fr– *ding*
[Create War Room?]
Huh…, okay. Well, I guess I am a dungeon after all, so perhaps specialty rooms are a given. I wonder idly what other rooms I could build, and the resulting list is surprisingly large, with a description for each one’s specialty beside it. Most seem to be spaces for different types of crafting, though I make a particular note of the Alchemy Lab and Enchanter’s workshop. I’m sure those will really come in handy later. For now though, since I don’t intend to set up permanent residence here in a hole in the ground, I’ll build some temporary rooms just for what I need at the moment. Namely, the afore-mentioned War Room to get its mapping function, and a Library so I can start gathering everything I learn into one place. It doesn’t take too long for my rabbits to dig out some small rabbit-sized room extensions from my Sanctum, and with each one designated, I now have a dirt hole with a small piece of blank leather in it, and a similar hole with a similarly small piece of parchment. Humorously, the parchment in my so-called “Library” has some writing on it that reflects my immediate thoughts on the matter.
“Well, this is disappointing.”
Yeah, no kidding, I guess like everything else, I’m gonna have to spend some mana to upgrade the facilities around here. For now, I’ll leave them as they are, since I don’t want to upgrade them too much just to find out I’ll have to start from scratch again when I move to their more permanent placements. On second thought, I’ll likely need the war room upgraded some to handle mapping the island anyways, so I’ll use that room to test how transferable they are and leave the library as a control. As annoying as it is sometimes to not have any idea of what the rules are for this world, I must say there is a certain kind of fun in figuring everything out myself like this.
Speaking of figuring stuff out, I’ve realized that my dungeon is, shall we say, a bit lacking in some areas. If I want to build all sorts of things, what I need most are the resources to get started, and I’m utterly lacking in that department. However, considering everything else has only popped up in my mental UI once I became conscious of it…yep! There it is! A whole list of resource nodes that I can add! I daresay I’m starting to get the hang of this dungeon business.
A few hours later, and well, suffice to say I no longer have the mana to expand anywhere anymore. I uh, may have gone just a smidge overboard on placing resource nodes. But can you really blame me? I’ve got all kinds of weird medicinal and magical plants growing out of every available spot of land in me, from basic healing herbs, to what I’m pretty sure might be mandrakes. I’ve even got some of the roots around designated as ‘wood’ resource nodes so that they’ll regrow quickly when harvested for materials, and a couple of clay nodes by the lakefront. Just think of all the fun stuff I can do with clay!
The weirdest option though was the firefly and lightning bug resource nodes. First of all, what the heck makes them a resource, I do not know, but I’ve got them now. Secondly, while it seemed pedantic to me at first that they were separated out, turns out the naming is much more literal than the nicknames for the same bug I was used to from Earth. Though they do indeed look the same, one bug actually produces heat from its butt, and the other has little zaps of electricity coming from theirs, and these effects only strengthened when I upgraded their respective nodes too. Still, no idea what they’re used for to be considered a resource, but I’m sure I’ll figure something out.
As for the lake itself, I’ve Giorno positioning the poison dart frogs not going out to scout upon the pads of my greatest, and by far most expensive resource node of them all. Costing almost as much as an entire expansion, I’m now the proud owner of a large patch of Lunar Lilies. These flowers are downright gorgeous and also apparently highly magical. The description simply listed that they only bloom at night and that their petals are said to catch the moonlight as it falls. Indeed, I already see a progress bar above each of the flowers now, so I’m guessing I’ll need to keep them protected while they fill up with moonlight. Considering their mystical nature, and the sheer cost of obtaining and upgrading them, I’ve decided each one needs a dedicated team of dart frogs to keep them safe from predators.
Looking around at my now full-of-life domain, I proudly ask Giorno what he thinks of all my upgrades, wanting to share my excitement with him. He chuffs softly in amusement at my antics as one would for a foolish but adorably naive family member, and then hardens his vigil, clearly tensed. A little miffed at his treatment, I gently prod him to ask why he seems to be grimly enjoying the calm before the storm. I get my answer instead as the droning of thousands of bug wings beat the air above the lake, and from the tree I see a rolling mass of fur as hundreds of squirrels descend upon me.
…Ah. With new resources, come new invaders too it would seem. I guess I really should have seen this coming at this point.
Riiibbbiiit”
Oh hush, you.

2023.03.28 19:10 Ninjake56 AITA for demanding an apology for dinging my car?

I'll keep this brief since this just happened 15 minutes ago and I am in class writing this.
I go to college and commute to class everyday, so when I arrive there are never that many parking spots left. When I arrived I saw one that was very tight, but luckily I have a compact car so I parked there fairly easily. Now there are two things I feel are important to state:
  1. The car on my right made the spot so tight because they were not in the lines and bleeding into my spot.
  2. Even though the spot was tight, I was able to park closer to the car on my left to give the car on my right ample room to get in without it being uncomfortable.
After I parked, I noticed I still had about 10 minutes until my class started, so I sat in my car listening to music. Immediately, my whole car shakes and I look to my right and see the driver completely threw his door into my car. I got out of my car and looked and he left a HUGE dent in my door. I knocked on his window but he ignored me and started to back up so I got behind his car and took a picture of his license plate and vehicle before he started to drive away. He must have noticed that because then he decided to get out.
He gets out of his car asking what's up and why I'm taking pictures of his plate. I tell him he dinged my car with his door hard and left a mark. He proceeded to look at my car and tell me that my car is a piece of shit and there is no way I could prove that HE made ONE specific dent since there are so many.
To be fair, my car does a decent amount of small dents since I bought it used, but the one he made was so painstakingly larger than the rest.
He goes on about how there's nothing I can do and how he won't admit to anything. At this point I'm fed up and tell him that I'm not looking for money, I just want him to apologize for dinging my car. He tells me that I'm an asshole for demanding an apology and causing this whole altercation if I didn't even care, but still refuses to apologize. Finally he gives some half-assed "I'm sorry this happened to you but it wasn't me" and I'm just over it so he gets in his car and leaves.
I did care, but I didn't want to ruin someone's day or get the cops involved since I was about to go to class. I just wanted him to apologize because I feel like it's the right thing to do after hitting someone's car in such an obvious way.
So Reddit, AITA for confronting a guy who dinged my car and demanding an apology?

2023.03.28 19:10 LordDraconis7 Beyond Deja Vu

What I'm about to say may not sound real and I understand but this did really happened to me a few years ago.
I've had a spiritual awakening a few months ago, I wanted to share the craziest syncronicity that has happened to me on this journey of self-realization.
A few years ago, I used to be a Jehovah's Witness, I used to believe that path to be the only one to 'God'. However, the more I studied the Bible the more questions that answers I got.
Sometimes I would even ask the elders of the congregation questions and that even they couldn't answer.
One night I had a dream that I was going door to door with my bible study teacher in some street I've never seen before, we were walking by the left side of the road. Me and my teacher were standing in the corner of the left street and I noticed my teacher had a checkerd pattern shirt, brown and white colored, then the dream ended.
The very next day our congregation goes to a part of town to go door to door, I've never been to this part of my town before.
As me and my teacher were were walking down this road, something very strange starts happening, it all feels very earie... like I've been here before. When we reached the corner I started to noticed the similarities.
I was standing in the same corner of the same left road, and my teacher was wearing the exact same checkerd colored I saw in my dream the previous night.
It was all to obvious to ignore, what made it even crazier is that I've never even been to this pace before. I even told my teacher what I had just experienced and the dream I had the previous night, I couldn't help it.
My teacher tried to convince me that it was just coincidence but the syncronicities were just too strong to ignore. He then said that it was very interesting and that we would have to talk to the governing body about it, but he never brought it up again.
Events like this is what led me to my spiritual awakening, I began studying the Occult Sciences, Kabbalah, Alchemy, Gnosticism, Quantum Physics, Buddhism, etc.
Dreams reveal to us the deepest parts of our Subconscious, our true higher knowing or gnosis.
"Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
-Carl Jung

2023.03.28 19:00 henryl046 I frequently abandoned my wife and my family.

So I’ve was married to my wife for almost 6 years. We have two beautiful boys together and she has a daughter from a previous marriage. There were a few red flags I missed. One, being she brought her daughter around me and slept over my place after two weeks of knowing her. And within 2 months she was pregnant.
She is 8 years older than me, and we met when I was right out of college. I come from a broken home, and have struggled with various mental health issues. I was desperate for love and she was desperate to settle down and get married.
A few months after she got pregnant, things took a turn real fast and she was no longer the woman I married. She started screaming, yelling, degrading me. But I just chalked it up to the pregnancy hormones. It never changed.
Her aunt gifted us a house and we moved in right after our baby was born. She started to become very controlling really quick. Since the house was in her name. I noticed how horribly she treated her daughter, and she was doing the same to me. My wife was a stay at home mom and was living off money she had in the bank
One thing I did that she didn’t like, she would lock me out of the house. She got pleasure from me begging and knocking on the door. She never gave me a key and used the prenup as a way to justify it. If that wasn’t bad enough, she didn’t let me do laundry or shower in the house. I had to get a gym membership to shower, and go to the laundry mat. She limited the amount of food everybody ate in the house, and kept it locked up. My sons and her daughter would get yelled at by her for hiding food wrappers all over the the house.
We would mostly fight over my finances and work situation. She wanted me to get a 9-5 but I made more money running my own business. But it still wasn’t good enough for her. One night, we had another fight about finances , and she banned me from that point in sleeping in our bed together. She made me sleep in the basement on an old pull out couch , and unscrewed the light bulbs just to be cruel. She tormented me about everything that hurt. Once things got too much, I left for weeks or months at a time. I would travel to different countries, or back with my family for a bit to escape her madness.
When I left, things got worse for her daughter. The stress of me leaving made the whole house hostile, and my parenting duties fell onto her. I remember one time her daughter got the stomach bug, and gave it to my sons. She made her clean up everybody’s vomit and her own. My wife was a narcissist, I learned that after I went to therapy. And I was diagnosed with BPD.
She would trigger me until I had mental breakdowns. I’d jump out of moving cars because she wouldn’t stop screaming. I would bang my head on the floor, anything to get her to stop.
I just couldn’t handle her. I wasn’t man enough to put a stop to it. I wanted to stay together for the kids. To fix our marriage. We finally got divorced about 2 years ago.
I didn’t file a report because she had those kids so brainwashed. My sister called CPS on her, and she trained the kids what to say so it fell back on me. There was no proof I could have gotten. I have custody 2 days a week, and feel isolated from what’s going on in the house. Her daughter is an adult now, and wants to help. But nobody knows what to do.
