The LI's being parents - Xavier, Rafayel, Zayne, Sylus and Caleb

Self insert x Reader

Warnings - none, Fluff, slight angst with Caleb if you squint on the song.

🌟 Xavier: I think would be a boy dad, I can totally see him with your son passed out on his shoulder. Taking after his dad with his excessive amount of sleep bordering on concerning. His soft little sighs as his little hands hold onto Xavier's shirt while his Dad just plops himself down onto the floor inbetween your legs. Leaning his back against the couch and leaning his head back to look at you from his position. "Requesting head rubs for me and our little star?" Who are you to deny the both of them? You have two hands, after all.

🐟 Rafayel: Rafayel is a girl dad through and through. He would be the type to spoil the hell out of your daughter and when she develops his over dramatic antics he's regularly requesting back up from you.

It all started when Thomas gifted her an artist Barbie for her birthday and since then your daughters been trying to paint everything she could get her hands on. It also didn't help that the paint she procured was from Rafayels reject bin, a mass of shades and paints that didn't pass his quality test. "No sweet pea, you can't use that shade of green, its bad. It would clash, here let me get you-", "You're bad Papa!" She would shout back at him in a childish outburst that only a toddler could do so confidently. Confidently enough that it would leave Rafayel flabbergasted while he watches her proceed to paint her Barbie car that horrible seafoam green he hated while he yells for you to come help him.

"Y/N, OUR SWEET PEAS BEEN POSSESSED."

⛄️ Zayne: Whole heartedly believe he would be a girl dad, no question about it. I can see him reading her bedtime stories and being the one to provide emergency surgeries to her stuffed animals. "Mr.Stuffins hurt his paw again? Where'd he get hurt this time snowflake?" Through fat tears holding Mr.Stuffins disembodied limb your daughter would bable back, "H-he got caught on t-the slide when I went down and I hurt him." Smiling softly he'd wipe her tears away and pat her head gently before taking the limb from her hands. "It's okay sweetheart, Papa's going to fix him right up. Do you want to help hold him steady?" Letting her know it's okay and so she can get closure on accidently hurting her stuffie.

🐦‍⬛ Sylus: Sylus I can see as having two daughters with you. You're currently pregnant with your second while sitting on the couch next to Sylus. All the while your 3 year old is digging through your hair supplies, determined to make her dad pretty. Grabbing handfuls of butterfly clips and star clips to press in, she's creating sporadic patches of hair that sticks up in small pigtails. Her hands clap together in joy as her work comes together while Sylus is gently teasing her - "Be careful, little bird. You're going to make your dad go bald." Giggles erupting from her as she grabs another clip with red gems surrounding it, reaching her small hand out to his for his approval before he laughs and gives the go ahead. (Do you or do you not feel Bonita Sylus?)

🍎 Caleb: Caleb would 100% be a dad to twins, 1 boy and 1 girl. He was absolutely ecstatic when you told him, clearing off his schedule for the next two weeks leaving Liam to handle things unless under dire means. He's immediately taking you to pick out nursery supplies, making the spareroom in Skyhaven into their nursery and getting giddy over baby clothes with you. He's already plotting out decorative themes, airplanes, ships, apples, sunflowers, you name it. His favorite nursery find in particular was the windchimes he found while picking up formula that you could program to play certain songs - his go to song for it was "You are my Sunshine".

He also knew that the pregnancy was going to take it's toll on you just due to the nature of it being twins and thus after giving birth to your twins he purchased a twin holster. That way he could keep the two strapped to his chest while they slept against him while he cooked dinner for the both of you. Your son was starting to get fussy when Caleb crouched down to grab a pot to start his soup base in as he rubs a soothing hand against his back bouncing himself on one heel as he stands. "Shhh, its okay peanut I got you. Mama's resting, are ya hungry?" He'd offer, reaching into the fridge and moving to heat up some of the milk stored for your babies. Swiftly popping a warm bottle into your sons mouth, while checking on your daughter who's still out cold on his chest. Listening to the quiet content sighs your son was making while drinking Caleb starts humming a soft nonsensical tune to himself, or should I say it's only nonsensical if you havent heard the song that would play on the windchimes in their nursery. Caleb continues cooking for you and your family. He's forever grateful to you for being back in his life and for gifting him his sunflower babies.

It was a joke. It had to be.

Billy had asked him, with a bouquet of flowers in one hand, on a date. Considering the last prolonged interaction they’d had, Steve had punched him in the face, laughing hysterically then slamming the door felt justified.

As happened every time Steve did something stupid, Sofia Harrington knocked gently on his door. She sat on the side of his bed, humming a nursery rhyme he hadn’t heard since they lived in Romania and asked him why he’d been so rude to that nice boy.

Steve suspected not many people had referred to Billy Hargrove as a “nice boy.” Loud, yes. Intimidating, also yes. Unbelievably attractive, absolutely. But nice? Those were the words of a woman who’d taken one look at “King Steve” and asked why her little boy was being deliberately cruel to fit in.

There were many reasons Steve had chosen to think that was some kind of a sick prank. He knew it wasn’t homophobia because he’d seen the bars Billy frequented but goyim were generally not actively seeking out a Jewish partner.

Sofia listened to this reasoning then held his hand and told him that things would work out how they were intended to. Feeling overly emotional and slightly embarrassed, Steve followed her down to observe Shabbat.

Steve idly wondered how Billy would take to Jewish culture, if he had accepted. There was nobody who didn’t know Billy’s faith, considering he would cross himself every time he stepped onto the basketball court and Steve’s only exposure to Catholicism was his great aunt in Texas.

The next time they talked, it wasn’t even a return to normally scheduled programming. It was worse.

Billy stared at him blankly, only making polite small talk for Max’s sake and with an obviously strained smile curling at his lips.

He looked upset, monumentally so and Steve started to realise that he’d slammed the door on someone he certainly wouldn’t mind dating because he’d unfairly branded him as an antisemite.

Spending the majority of Rosh Hashanah bemoaning the fact that he was a fucking idiot had his Bubbe telling him to take a walk and apologise. It was the beginning of a new year, the perfect time to make amends.

Steve didn’t exactly apologise in the traditional sense. Instead he sent an even more elaborate bouquet of flowers with an apology note attached to the ribbon. Roses because everyone loved roses.

Billy did not love roses. At least he didn’t love them in place of an actual apology. They were dumped on the foot of his door as an extra fuck you.

The second apology attempt didn’t go much better than the first. There was nothing left on Steve’s porch but Steve’s attempt to be “cool” about it was not gaining him any favours.

Instead, Billy stared at him like he had a fish on his head and slammed the door in his face.

Karma really was a bitch then.

He had to beg Max to arrange a time where Steve could apologise properly, which she accepted after Steve offered to pay for two separate shopping trips with El and Dustin.

They met on a bench near the woods outside of Hawkins. Billy grunted, clearly impatient to get it over with so Steve talked.

As Steve explained his experiences as one of only two Jewish students through his four years of high school, Steve felt Billy’s hand creeping over to his. The look he got was no longer angry or hurt, but understanding. Steve apologised for the fight in November too and they decided to do over.

Most of the date was talking in Steve’s room. Talking about the horrendously embarrassing things Steve did in middle school, talking about Billy’s family back in Ireland, talking about where they were going to college. Normal teenager stuff.

Steve felt his eyes start to well up when he heard about Neil and how nonchalant Billy was describing the abuse he’d endured. That would never happen to him again. Not on Steve’s watch.

They may have ended the night reaching second base on Steve’s plaid covered bed until his mom decided to knock on his door, demanding to meet the first boy Steve had brought over since Jonathan.

Even after that, Billy still wanted to go on a second date. That was a miracle in itself and proof enough to Steve that Billy was the best date he’d ever had.

*quick note that I am Jewish and Jewish people being wary around goyim is completely understandable, this is just a little ficlet for Rosh Hashana

Random AU thoughts I've had this week:

- Nico and Lexi meeting in the Spring, then Nico is gone in Switzerland for the off-season, so Lexi assumes he moved out. When he comes back, Lexi is smiling as she comes out of the mailroom when Nico is getting into the elevator.

"Thought you moved out." She smirks a bit.

"Technically I did." Nico shrugs. "But I'm back for the season."

"I see." Lexi says as the car stops at her floor. "So, back to regularly scheduled programming? 8:15 right?" She asks, tilting her head at him. Nico's lips spread wide.

"It's all a coincidence, Alexis." He teases back.

"Mhm. See you tomorrow, Nico." She says airly as the doors shut between them.

It takes everything in Nico to play it cool. But yeah. He'll see her tomorrow.

- As a small child, Mack goes through a stage where she calls her parents by their names. But she goes full name for her mom, so Alexis. Then she calls her dad Nicolas, assuming Nico is short for something. She greets them with those names one morning before she walks to the pantry to pour her cereal into a bowl on the floor. Nico and Lexi are stunned silent. Mack walks into the living room with her bowl of dry cereal, clicking on cartoons. All Nico can think to say is, "My name isn't Nicolas... And regardless, to you it's dad."

- Timo's favorite summer is the one when Emma is pregnant with Livy. He uses any excuse he can come up with to get Emma in a bikini so he can just stare at her. If he could do it fast enough, he would be putting a pool in the backyard. He is pissed when Fall comes and Emma's bump is hidden under chunky sweaters.

- (you all are gonna wanna stab me for this one) Mack has a cancer scare after routine imaging. It is so difficult for her to have that conversation with David knowing how triggering it is going to be. It turns out to be a benign situation and the flood gates that open from David are hard for Mack to manage, even after being together for 20 years. It's like he is 16 again, losing his mom, with his face buried into Mack's stomach while he sobs.

- Lucie posting a thirst trap Connor took from their vacation and Connor gets ALL up in her comments, publicly praising her entire existence. He's tossing out flames. Begging her to "come to bed." and "Baby #2 in 9 months. Heard it here first." People are screenshotting his comments and it's even getting air time on national sports shows and accounts. The Rangers PR guy is calling him, reminding him to tone it down and Connor is like "absolutely not."

- Lio watching Sav nest in Gracie's nursery after getting off the phone with Mack, David and a brand new Nicky. How real and raw childbirth became for Lio in that moment and how he was pleading for everything to be okay with his wife and their daughter when she joins them. To soothe himself this time, he pulls out the fetal doppler so they can sit in her nursery and be surrounded by the sound of her heartbeat.

-Liv and Luca spend every other night in August and September at the beach with Lena to watch the sunset when she first joins them in California. They roll through to the dorms in Luca's fancy car to pick her up. They're sending pictures to Sam, Kev, and Lena in the group chat. The three of them eat a massive pizza together loaded down with meats and veggies. Then Luca runs up to grab them pints of ice cream while Luca can't remember a time where he was this happy.

Yavanna: Kay, so the babies' naptime is gonna end soon. Soon? Sometime? Eventually? And someone has to baby proof the nursery. Cause no baby of mine needs a table corner to the face. And who the hell is gonna take care of that JoJo's villain Melkor?? He's a bad influence on the babies!

Tulkas: Ya know she's gotta point. I say put the bastard in timeout! Permanently.

Mandos: Chill out they aren't up just yet. They still have nightlights, so it's not that bad... Yet.

Melkor: Oh come on, it's just a bit of fun! *Sends one of his goonies to do the truffle shuffle outside Orame's house.*

After that some of the babies start to like Orame.

-Saddness- 🥺

The babies who stayed with their uncle Melkor ended up traumatized and became meth addicts, I mean uruk's? , I mean orcs.

Is orc a racial slur now????

Uruk? Orc? Babies and elf babies forever can't play nicely on the playground. But, that's just because uruk's? orcs? Come from a low income broken household and Melkor is their abusive alcoholic father. They are sooooo jealous of the elf babies who seem to get all the nice things.

Uruk?orc?? Kids be like: Screw you dad!

Melkor: The fuck did you just say to me boys!? Get the hell back to your chores and get papa a beer while you're at it!!

I wish I could understand why it's been so difficult for me to update either blog. Probably just because there's so much going on.

I'm in my 5th week of my first semester of courses - accelerated semesters. At 3 credit hours, I'm considered full-time, and jeezy creezy, it feels like it. Comms and Eco Literacy are the classes, and I feel like I've learned so much in such a short amount of time. The most intimidating thing is learning how to engage research material in an ethical and effective way. Imposter syndrome is going to be very difficult to manage, as is maintaining a high level of personal and academic integrity. I already know I have a tendency to confirm biases, so I need to be prepared to check that regularly. I cheated several times through a college-level course in high school and one of my last-semester course finals in my first go-around in college. Since then, I've learned about how to prevent myself from being in a situation where I might be tempted to cheat in the first place, etc. But I worry about myself. I always will, probably. Probably because I judge myself on a core level about being someone capable of that. That's a whole 'nother discussion.

Aside from the most intimidating thing, the most CHALLENGING thing is maintaining my schedule. Wait, back up, it's actually creating a functional schedule in the first place. A couple of weeks ago, I was 3 days late turning in an assignment because I didn't fully comprehend the timeline or number of submissions an assignment required. 50% deduction. I have precious little room for bullshit mistakes like that on accelerated courses. I'm anxious about this because I was declined funding from the Choctaw nation because in my very last semester at KU (the semester I was spiraling, and, ya know, cheating on exams) I fell below 2.0 gpa (big surprising yeah?). I know I'll manage well above that by the end of this term, but... WORRIES. ALL THE WORRIES.

Aside from school, I'm running my own SMART Recovery meeting finally, still helping out with Wellbriety (that situation has changed SO much and it's very... sobriety testing), volunteering for the PTO, volunteering my time with a native plant nursery, doing the part-time job, making and selling jewelry, still grooming and dog sitting, still gardening and landscaping...

It's so much. It's too much.

I have ended my participation in a leadership program where my "mentor" ghosted my for nearly a month. I just left the voicemail today, so I'll likely be dealing with the fallout of that tomorrow. Maybe I'll blog about it lol.

Today was also my final session with my rehab therapist, and I didn't realize it. So two mentors down in one day. And I'm kind of crushed. The one that ghosted me promised me all this help with getting my finances together, and it was, like, possibly the most valuable carrot you could have dangled in front of me. In a Long List of Things, it's The One Thing that must be tackled before I can start making my dreams come true. It's also the one problem I can't find a single source of help for. Today I went to the library to check out the library databases and just spend time in between appointments NOT BUYING BEADS AT MICHAELS CRAFT STORE and perused the finances section. Not a single book on basic budgeting. It was all how-to-get-rich stuff.

And while yeah I'm definitely taking note for, like, the FIFTH non-profit I need to create to address this educational shortcoming for adults in recovery, I would like to not have to do something entirely from the ground up. A mentor would be so, SO nice. It seems demanding or needy, but I need someone to sit with me once a week, twice a month maybe, and help me create and go over my books with me until I've gained the skill and accountability to do it myself. The credit counselor said, "You need to start with a budget."

Sir. SIR. There is a big ol' gap between where I'm at and competently creating and following a budget. There's like... many steps. And maybe most people learned those steps from a parent, or in some way had access to that education in a way that impacted their behavior patterns, but many many people did not. And from what I can tell, those folks and myself are utterly left behind by almost every program. State aid, DCF, EBT, TANF, Bridges Over Poverty, none of these government or non-profit private sector agencies provides financial literacy/competency training. I asked my regular therapist where I could start from a behavioral stand point, and while we did come to a solution-based answer by the end of the session, there were crickets for several minutes while I challenged my therapist to tell me something other than "start with a budget". I'm seeking and trying and still not gaining any ground on this. It's depressing because it's interconnected to so many other things, but just living in poverty in general. It inhibits my ability to do so much.

Anyway, there's been a lot of isolation despite being busy. I'm lonely to the max, and trying to stand up for myself lately has been draining. I'm not good at it, I never know if the timing is correct or if its justified, if I'm doing it the right way or did I just ruin a connection/friendship, etc. I can't tell if I'm being negative laying out my challenges or just being real.

I do know that I'm in full relapse-mode, and I've been mindful of the substance cravings. I have 7 days to go before I reach 1 year sobriety.

There have been good and wonderful things lately, too - took my daughter to a Bee Fest, all the lovely time spent out at Lake Cheney working with native plants, my beadwork, a glorious morning walk the other day, fall and my garden, and all the growth I've experienced.

I miss being here, though. It's such a regular part of my processing and emotional health to have my blogs, and it's largely absent right now and I feel it pretty hard. In all of this "becoming", it's hard to spend any time just "being".

The olive oil store (part time job) got robbed while I was in it. (A widow's mite. It's a xtian owned shop so of course there were widow's mites.) I'm really tired of xtian music but could dedicate a whole blog post to it XD The robbing thing was weird. Ren fest this coming weekend. Hope I get to go!

I miss you folks. I appreciate knowing that anyone is still keeping an eye out for me at all. The holidays are on the horizon and like all good bi-polars, it's time to get crazy. But I gotta try and not this year and stay stable and sober, and I should try and learn on this space for some grounding. Okay I gotta stick to that sleep schedule - sometimes its the only thing between me and oblivion lol.

Monster March 2024- Day 20- Alien- Part 6

Dowager Status

Woo, we made it to the last part of this story I have written so far. But sadly, I must end things here to stay on any kind of schedule. After Monster March? Bet your ass I'm gonna finish this proper.

As always, thanks to @borealwrites for their Monster March 2024 Prompt List.

Dowager Status 

“Why does she go to you?” Klip asked Jaxx once Jaxx exited the coop himself as Klip had tried his best to stay out of sight and give her space and breathing room but still keep at a distance to just…make sure she would be ok. 

“Because she knows I’m a true specialist and she knows she can count on me to come through for her. I’m sure once you have earned her trust, she will learn to depend on you as well.” Jaxx offered. 

“But how can I do so when she hates me?” Klip asked. 

“She doesn’t hate you, she just doesn’t trust you- through no fault of yours.” Jaxx specified. 

“Well then whose fault was it? I thought Kat apologized?” He asked. 

“She did. But the person who broke her trust wasn’t Kat. It was Kai. I know she’s practically dead upstairs, but Hazi and her sisters are still very much still scarred and weary. And they have every right to be.” Jaxx specified before he turned to head back to the transporter to transport to his own ship as Klip followed and walked with him. 

“What happened? I can’t access the files. They were stuck out of the record.” Klip asked. 

“What happened was that Hazi was one of 57 Princesses that her predecessor saved. However, when her predecessor saved her and the others, she saved all of the Princesses, no matter what stage they were in.” Jaxx answered. 

“But there’s only 14 of them. Are the others still in stasis?” Klip asked. 

“No, the rest are already dead. Because you see the problem was with that batch- if you will, was the moment her already programmed sisters came out of incubation not even a few days later as Nursery Drones, they did not take to the career change. They turned this nest into chaos because in their minds and hearts they were still Queens. They even tried to stage an unsuccessful coup. Those that were involved, of course were assassinated when Hazi herself was only a few days old. Then those that were innocent were put under heavy guard, except that Kai didn’t anticipate for those that guarded them, would end up building romantic attachments for yet more sisters and that closeness bred fondness, and those that were far enough in development to develop their own eggs, fell pregnant, and had to be killed off. Any Consort- mated or otherwise who showed any kind of attention to Hazi or her sisters were killed off that’s why myself and many of the unmated consorts aren’t even on this ship. Only Jaxon and Jago had to remain here, Jaxon is in charge of the Jika Flora, and Jago is in charge of the military. Most of us fled for our lives to the other ships to escape even the suspicion of having any ties to Hazi or her true sisters.” Jaxx explained.

“Oh, I.. had no idea.” Klip felt sick to his stomach that Hazi had already endured so much. 

“And then, once Hazi and the rest of her batch were out of incubation- for some, was a year, for others were barely a few minutes- they were rounded up like cattle and had to have very invasive and very painful scans and surgeries to not only ensure that each one was sterile, but that isthing would be a very painful experience for them period. And the remainder were halved yet again because of complications from the surgery. The ones that were only minutes old, didn’t survive being probed. Their skin was still far too delicate and their own exoskeleton on their own abdomens caved in. Because the Surgical Drones, under Queen Kai’s order- cut out of each one- the majority of their sexual canals and cut out anything even remotely similar in look or feel to an egg or Hive forbid-an egg follicle. She even tried to have their own stingers and venom glands removed and their abdomens collapsed on themselves for having so much of their anatomy surgically removed.” Jaxx continued. 

“Kai then took down all the walls and barriers in the Hive Mind so that she could hear and listen and see everything that happened and micromanaged everything and everyone. The only reason Hazi and her few remaining sisters are alive is because they showed an aversion to isthing and worked themselves to the point of exhaustion- every, single, day. So that they would be too busy to isth with any consort and that Kai would never have a reason to suspect any of them or blame any of them- for anything so that they would never be disciplined for any infraction no matter how slight. Because Kai, for being weak, was also desperate and ruthless.” Jaxx finished. 

“So you need to understand that in order to survive all of that- Hazi has had to accept that she’s hollow, and damaged beyond repair. And she will continue to be weary and continue to try to walk a fine line between serving Kat and the Hive, while also being continuously weary that at any moment, Kat could come to maturity and renege on everything and try to kill all of us who aren’t a Super Consort- and turn out to be even worse than Kai ever was. There is a mental and psychological scar there that you can’t even begin to comprehend. So while you have gotten a week to come to appreciate what she’s done, you’ve only come to know half the story. She has had a lifetime of experience warning her to not get anywhere near any Consort period. So while you shouldn’t blame yourself, you shouldn’t blame her either. Her reactions to everything are perfectly sane, reasonable and logical. So what you need to do- is respect her, and her decisions, especially when things are still so unstable and not even close to settled. And they won’t be until Kat is not only at full size and at full maturity, but most likely, had a few generations of larvae laid under her belt so to speak. Earn her trust by keeping your distance and respecting her decision to save herself and her sisters, even at the cost they have already dearly paid.” Jaxx advised. 

“I see now. Thank you for sharing this with me. When her sisters showed weariness, we thought we had come off as too aggressive. If this is why…if this is why they metaphorically have more spikes than we do? It’s perfectly reasonable. I shall do as you say and “back off” as much as I can until she can learn to trust myself and Kat and our situation and circumstances are more stable.” Klip offered. 

“If you want more ideas on how to do that- you should probably seek Jago out. He will have better ideas on how to arm Hazi and her sisters so that- should Kat renege, they will be able to defend themselves against you and the other Super Consorts and even Queen Kat or any other Super Queen or any other Super Consort.” Jaxx suggested. 

“Yes, I will do that.” He nodded before Jaxx transported off the mothership and onto his own before Klip went straight to Jago’s office to see Jago dump the water from the vase down his sink. 

“Do you have orders for me?” Jago asked Klip once Klip came in. 

“No. I have questions though.” Klip offered. 

“Ask them.” Jago urged him before he put the vase to the side and came back to his desk. 

“How can I help Hazi?” Klip asked. 

“With what?” Jago blinked with a thoughtful frown. 

“Anything? Everything? I…I spent the last week doing all the research I can on Royal Nursery Executives. And I just thought it was a glitch that the records were struck from the Hive memory from certain sections of Queen Kai’s rule. However, Jaxx has filled me in- on what happened during those times and perhaps why they were struck. Specifically about Hazi’s other sisters who are no longer with us.” Klip explained. 

“So what’s the problem?” Jago asked. 

“How do I help Hazi and protect her and protect her sisters from that ever happening again? I understand her own aversion to me and the other Super Consorts. I understand her weariness. I understand her mistrust. I understand her hate and her resentment, and I understand her stance.” 

“If you understand it, how is it a problem?” Jago asked. 

“I don’t know how to prove to her that she does not have to worry about that part of her history ever repeating again? Surely if she’s had surgery to remove…whatever had to be removed- surly she could go back into incubation to recover it right?” He asked. 

“No. It can’t be recovered. That and Hazi and her sisters do not want what was taken from them- to ever be returned because they know it would only be a point of contention and prove just as life threatening as its past presence was. Their lives have been preserved and they have put themselves and their conduct and their intentions above reproach and have kept themselves safe from any who would try to use their own biology against them. Trust me, it’s better this way.” Jago affirmed. 

“Will the Princesses that were saved, have to go through the same experiences, surely we can keep them having to suffer any of that.” Klip offered. 

“I don’t know. And I won’t know until any of them come out of incubation.” Jago answered. 

“So…what can be done? Is there anything that can be brought from anywhere to further protect Hazi and her sisters and even the new Princesses?” He asked. 

“Not that I’m aware of.” Jago shook his head no. 

“Well, if..if you do find something, anything, I’d like to volunteer for you to test it out on. Hazi was willing to die to save those Princesses the way one of her predecessors had saved her and the others. It’s only fair to be willing to do the same.” He offered as Jago both frowned yet his mouth almost in a grin. 

“That’s very generous of you. Well, for one, I would like to scan you then. See how thick your exoskeleton is, see if those spikes are solid or hollow and get samples of your venoms, so that we at least have a map of what we’re working with so that- should steps and measures need to be taken to ensure Hazi and her sisters and the new Royal Nursery Executives need to survive you and Queen Kat and should ever need to survive yet another Super Queen and her Super Consorts, that they can.” Jago offered. 

It was clear that his re-incubation was at least going well so far, thanks to codes from Reverend Mother along with a huge download of the finer points of Hive Management that were sent not only from her, but were also being taken from all the other Queens in the Quadrant and this galaxy and far beyond to help stabilize Kat’s reign as well as help protect Hazi to ensure the Hive as Hazi was seen and recognized as a Dowager Hive Mistress by all the other Queens. Second only to Reverend Mothers in absolute authority as Hazi and her sisters and anyone else she deemed important enough- which she quickly claimed all the other former unmated consorts as worthy- of the same protection and reverence- was now- protected- on a Jika wide scale and basically untouchable. And Kat was so relieved! Kat wasn’t taking this as a personal attack or as if she wasn’t capable of leading a Hive. If anything, she seemed so relieved to not have so much weighing on her as Hazi then made changes to the Hive Mind in real time, right from her Dowager Interface with her Dowager Codes until she had quieted down the entire Hive Mind so that Kat only basically got updates as she was forwarding all the information to Hazi and practically ignoring it and would only really look at what Hazi would eventually look through and reduce any redundancy for a future review, that wasn’t even set up yet. 

“Of course, anything.” Klip agreed without a second of hesitation as he readily submitted to the scans and samples.

“Thank you for your cooperation.” Jago thanked him before Klip soon found himself on the outside of Jago’s door before Klip was brave and flew by the Royal Nursery to see Hazi there with Kit in an incubator as the two were talking about how the Reverend Mother had agreed to their request to send Kat a whole batch of Kit’s to replace the one they were in front of. 

But he could feel that Hazi was still, even with all of this, just a touch still weary, but overall- far less uptight and guarded. Which was good, that was an improvement. 

But he also sensed that she hadn’t been ambitious and had wanted this power all along, no far from it, she was only taking it on because Kat was still too young, too immature and too inexperienced to try to take it all on herself. But she would hold it all until Kat would get big enough and strong enough to carry it herself. But was doing so more out of duty to the Hive as a whole more than anything. Which he could nothing but respect and admire, even from this distance. 

“So are you trying to be a creeper or what?” Hebi asked as she practically snuck up on him as she watched him watch Hazi and Kat from the window crack in the door to the hive. 

He felt like he nearly had a heart attack and nearly jumped out of his exoskeleton. 

“Your Ladyship, I apologize. Is there anything I can assist you with?” He asked. 

“Yeah, you can tell me why you’re hanging out here with your ear pressed to the door like a kid whose spying on his parents.” She answered. 

“I uh, well, I was just trying to keep an ear out- should Kat or Hazi need anything…from me or anyone else.” He offered. 

“Right, because neither of them know how to get a hold of you through the Hive Mind.” She sarcastically teased with a nod of her head as if agreeing with him. 

“Ok, you got me. I…I want to help any way I can, I just don’t know how without asking and risking either one of them or both of them biting my head for bothering them.” He confessed. 

“Ah, I see. Well, let me see how you can help…” She began as she looked over the results of the tests that Jago had run that he made available to her and her true sisters along with Jago’s true brothers. 

“You went to Jago?” She asked. 

“Yes, I submitted myself for testing and examination to find any weaknesses so that yourself and Hazi and the others would know best how to neutralize myself and the other Super Consorts if necessary.” He answered as she practically blinked in surprise, even with her compound eyes. 

“And I see that Jaxx has sent you a copy of the record of…” Hebi began and couldn’t bring herself to even say it outloud. 

“Why are you looking into that?” She asked. 

“Because I just wanted to know why Hazi and the others were especially weary of myself and the others.” He admitted. 

“Ok, can you share with me, the feed from your interactions with her?” She asked before he let her see all of them. 

“Ah, I see where you fucked up.” She readily offered. 

“What? Where? How? I didn’t do anything.” He maintained. 

“Yeah, yeah you did. You insinuated that she was after power, and in so doing, you gave her the impression that you were after power too. That means that she’s going to be especially suspicious of you and the other Super Consorts from now on. Because she is the Dowager now. To prove your genuine interest in her now? You’re gonna have to wait until she’s no longer a Dowager and Kat has full maturity and full control of the Hive. And even then, that’s gonna be a pretty steep uphill climb for you.” She offered apologetically. 

“Fuck. I did fuck up.” Klip realized as he just hung his head and then rubbed at his face with his hands as he played back the memory and was kicking himself for trying to appear confident and instead only appeared haughty and arrogant. 

“Hey, if it makes you feel any better, Hazi is really into letting people prove who they are and what their inner person is by their actions. You have time to do that. You have time to prove to her that your interest in her is genuine. You have time to help her learn your weaknesses, should she ever have to use them for her own survival. And you have time to prove to the Hive that you’re here to stay and that you are here to protect it, not dominate it one moment and abandon it another moment after. Volunteer to watch- from a distance- the new Nursery Executives. Because if you do so- too closely- Hazi is going to fear that you’re out to prey on them for your own sexual release or for your own selfish reasons.” She advised in a low murmur as she stepped closer to him. 

“And use your brain. Use your brain the way she does hers. Use it to think of what else you could do to help her, if not directly, then indirectly. Solve problems before they arise. Which is really hard, but if she can do it, we can too, right? Plus you’re a Super Consort. Aren’t you supposed to be super smart? So think of what you can do for the Hive as a whole? How can you see to it that not only will all these various drones make it to full maturity, but will have great lives once they leave this nest as late adolescents and young adults? And then think of how you can make Kat’s life easier first, to show that your loyalties should lie with Kat first and foremost. She is your Super Queen after all. And then once Kat is completely taken care of, then you can focus on making Hazi’s life better. How you can help her with her work. Make it easier for her to manage. Prove yourself capable to have things delegated to you. Hazi is going to- of course, start you out- with small, simple, easy things. Not because she thinks that’s all you can handle but to see how humble you are. To see how willing you are at taking direction and following said direction. Then exceed her expectations without making more work for her either. Then as she learns that she can trust you with more and depend on her more, don’t ever let her down. And if you mess up, admit it freely without having to be pushed or having the Hive Mind tattle tail on you ok? Own up to it.” She advised. 

“Ok, is there anything else I could do?” He asked. 

“Yes. Don’t present yourself as what you think a woman like her would want or what she needs. Just be yourself. You like her just the way she is, with or without her power and authority. Let her like you the same. With or without everything you are. Because if you push yourself onto her too hard, she’s gonna want to kill you off, thinking that you’re more of a danger to the Hive, seeking out the strongest and most powerful queen period, no matter who that would ever be. Make your loyalties to her and to Kat clear and true, and not to anything like power- that you have seen for yourself, in just a day- can be given or taken away at anyone’s will but our own.” She reminded him. 

“And lastly, the most important question you can ever ask her- “How can I help?” If you honestly ask that question and honestly accept it’s answer, whatever it may be. Do it, without hesitation. And remember, you may be a Super Consort, but that means that you’re willing to put in super amounts of effort. Humble yourself and be willing to take on any task, no matter how menial- if it will help her and help the whole Hive. Got it?” She urged him. 

“Understood, thank you so much for your advice your Ladyship.” He thanked her gratefully. 

“Oh and offer to help her get away and catch a breath every now and then. Otherwise she’s liable to work herself into an early grave. And we can’t have that can we?” She asked before she walked off with her tablet of objectives she needed to handle. 

“No we can’t.” He shook his head no with a soft grin before he noticed that the Queen was getting ready to enter an incubation chamber to sleep for the night. 

“Your Majesty?” He asked as he and the others came into the Royal Comb from all the entrances as it seemed they had all gotten the same message at about the same time. 

“What are doing?” Another asked worriedly to see Queen Kat get comfy in the next comb over from Kit.  

“Ugh, I can’t do anything without alerting the calvary.” Kat scuffed with an exaggerated eye roll to Hazi who could only breathe a laugh through her nose as she bit her lips to keep from having an outburst of laughter. 

“You are loved Your Majesty.” Hazi managed to answer. 

“As are you Dowager.” Kat playfully teased before she stuck her tongue out and blew a raspberry at Hazi. 

“Oh hush, enjoy your nap Kit-Kat.” Hazi offered before she closed the door and set the program before Kat slipped into a wonderful sleep as she let her head lull towards Kit- even in sleep as he slowly did the same. 

“So, how can I help?” Klip asked as his fellow Consorts were looking at him and demanding for him to ask what she was doing and why she was doing to Queen Kat. 

Hazi simply turned to consider him over her shoulder. 

“Well, you can all wait for everyone else to come.” She answered before he sat down at the stool by the bar where the Royal Jelly was as he sat and patiently waited and instead- told his fellow Super Consorts to stay quiet and that Hazi was going to explain everything once those she summoned so that she only had to explain it once- came as he could see Hazi hear that and grin as she continued to type things into both cells using a set of hands for each one as his fellow Super Consorts could do little but also come to sit beside him or chose to simply stand and wait before Hazi’s other sisters and the other former unmated Consorts came filing into it. And it was Klip’s turn to wait in silence as Hazi continued to communicate with her true sisters and the other unmated consorts as he felt a sense of deja-vu and poetic justice that their positions were reversed this time as he could do little but try to patiently wait as the others were getting antsy as Klip then put his focus on the other Super Consorts and had to threaten to punish them himself if they dared to rush the Dowager. And to reminded them of the level of respect she was owed, which was the same kind their own Reverend Mother was, if not more so as the others simply huffed and instead pouted at him. 

“Klip, get the door will you?” Hazi offered as she was finishing up putting her commands in before she used her own fingerprints to lock the cells as Klip practically jumped to his feet and opened the door closest to him as the others followed his lead and opened the others as the remaining ones were called into the Royal Comb as they all practically tried to file in quickly and efficiently without bottlenecking the entrances and exits just as Hazi turned in her stool and patiently waited for them all to come in. 

“Sorry for taking so long.” The others apologized lowly as they filed into the comb until it was practically standing room only before she had to stand up on her stool and it was from this vantage point that her scars to her abdomen were clearly seen as the other Super Consorts couldn’t help but stare while Klip could only feel a sympathy pain for her before he looked up into her eyes. 

“Now that everyone is here. I need to have a meeting.” Hazi began. 

“Sorry, just curious.” Kruk put his hands up in defeat as Hazi could do little but grin fondly at Klip for his interference. 

“Question? What happened to your abdomen?” Kurk asked as he pointed to it.

“None of your business. We’re here to listen to our Dowager Mistress, not ask her personal and impolite questions about her person.” Klip immediately snipped angrily. 

“I got it defending the Hive from an unworthy usurper.” Hazi decided to deflect. 

“But that’s old news. Not why I called you all here. Ok. So the reason Queen Kat is in an incubation cell is she was injured before she took over the Hive, she is in incubation to fully heal as well as get the rest of her supplemental Queen protocols since she only had the absolute bare minimum ones at the time of her ascension. So in an effort to heal what was injured, and in an effort to try to bring Royal Consort Kit back to what he was before Kat’s ascension, they are in the incubation cells. Kat will only need to be in this incubation cell for the night. Kit will need to be in for much longer. Also, just in case Kit can’t make a full recovery, the Reverend Mother is sending two batches of Super Consorts here, just in case anything else happens to any of you remaining- currently unisthantaried- Super Consorts from now and until when and if Super Queen Kat would want to fully isthantari with any or all of you.” Hazi explained. 

“So how can we help?” Klip repeated which earned him a smile from Hazi. 

“Brownie points for best question ever. Ok. So when Queen Kat reawakens from her beauty sleep in the incubation chamber, she will have gotten codes to prepare her mind and body for to try to catch up in size and maturity. Meaning, she will be ravenous, all the time. Jaxon, I need to know- is the Jika Flora Suite capable and able to feed her appetite should it increase by 10 fold?” She asked. 

“No. Five or six fold? Yes. But not a full ten.” Jaxon answered. 

“Ok, so then that means, I will need help in finding foods, both local and far away, that could help fill in the gap we will have to fill to satisfy Queen Kat’s full appetite. Other than the foods we already know, does anyone have any ideas on how we can get her not just nutritiously dense foods, but also, hopefully tasty ones. I know Earth has a ton of junk food, but for as delicious as it is, it’s nutritionally empty. And while it will be very tempting to let her quench her cravings with something quick and easy. I don’t want any of our tempting but faulty lazy shortcuts to cost her- valuable stomach space and risk her health and thus, risk endangering future eggs and larvae the Hive as whole. We have to think of the Hive’s greater good overall.” She explained. 

“I’ll reach out to Sable, she has a lot of connections to markets and vendors and especially restuarantours, I’m sure we can find a way to gather ingredients and if we need to hire a chef to cook them or prepare them any way that would entice Queen Kat’s appetite, even hiring teams of them to cook for her around the clock, we could try that.” Jaxon volunteered. 

“Great, anyone else got any ideas?” Hazi asked. 

“We could go around to any other markets either on Earth, or at any other space station to also look for the same things. Just casting out our nets wider than usual. I’ll volunteer to go wherever you think would be best place to start looking” Klip volunteered. 

“Any other volunteers?” Hazi asked before the other Consorts raised their hands as even her own sisters raised their hands. 

“I’d go if I don’t have duties here that need my presence here.” Hebi offered. 

“I’d go with her to help and also serve as protection.” Kruk immediately blurted as the other Super Consorts agreed to go- to offer protection for Hazi’s sisters. 

“Awesome. Thanks. I’ll have assignments for you shortly then.” Hazi decided as she put that in on her Dowager wrist interface. 

“Well, the main one is an inhibitor. And the inhibitor would allow you to fully isth with Queen Kat without your mind atrophying and- if necessary, only isth with her once, and never have to isth with her ever again.” She 

“Next- order of business, Super Consorts. Queen Kat- currently has a certain vision for her rule and reign. And as it stands that vision- has certain- characteristics that are unconventional and nontraditional. But this, again, can change as she changes, and grows and matures as well. But I am looking for any volunteers who would be willing to try out those new characteristics- however, you would have to go back into incubation to achieve them.” She offered.

“What are the characteristics?” Kraken asked. 

“Oh, so a full brained eunuch? No thank you.” Kraken immediately shook his head no as the other Super Consorts also began to shake their heads no. 

“I’d volunteer for that.” Klip found himself raising his hand for that as nearly everyone else went to turn their heads to look as if he had grown two more himself. 

“Why?!” Kragan demanded. 

“Queen Kat was injured isthing with Kit. She’s been averse to isthing ever since. If she is not able to fully heal tonight. I’m ok with whatever it would take to make sure she never has to do a duty she hates and can’t stand just for the good of our Hive. If only isthing once will save the Hive but keep her happy otherwise and help her perform her duties but keep my intellect and personality intact- even as annoying as I can be to her- I’d happily comply.” He defended. 

“Thank you Klip. Then I’m gonna have you stay behind so I can put you in tonight so you’d wake up with Kat in the morning.” Hazi beamed happily as she pointed to the other cell on the other side of Queen Kat as Klip immediately came through as the others parted for him as Hazi’s sisters said their thanks for him even trying in the first place before he came over but Hazi stopped him from getting in just yet as she made a subtle gesture for him to stop with her hand as he paused and simply stood and waited. 

“Ok, that is all, everyone- continue to brainstorm about ways to help Queen Kat and help the Hive in general. You know where to find me if you think of anything useful. Dismissed.” She urged before she sat down on the stool again as the others turned and began to file out. 

“But just so all of you Super Consorts know, you wouldn’t be a eunuch, these enhancements would actually double or even triple your current potency.” Hazi called out as she prepped Klip to go into incubation. 

“Wait, are you talking like two or three phallus’?” Kraken asked. 

“And at least 6-9 more gonads too.” Hazi nodded. 

“Shit, why didn’t you lead with that? Yeah, I’ll do that.” Kraken immediately changed his mind as did the other Super Consorts. 

“Can just the Super Consorts have that done or can any of us get that too?” Jaxon asked. 

“If you wish to save and dedicate your current one for Queen Kat and then use any secondary one for either your own private use or any other use, sure. But the secondary ones will be programmed to be smaller than your originals. Because the Super Consorts are already too big to fit Kat the way she is right now, this is meant to grow a much smaller secondary one for her from them. But in order for you to do the same, the Hive Code mandates that for any former unmated consort, their original, main phallus’ has to be dedicated to the new Queen first. And she is currently in stasis and can not be reached so you’d have to wait to ask her tomorrow once she wakes up.” Hazi answered. 

“Oh, ok, well, then, nevermind. I’m good.” Jaxon offered. 

“Figured you would be. Good night.” She dismissed the rest as her sisters hung back as she had instructed them to- to assist the other Super Consorts in getting ready to go back into incubation. 

“So I’ll grow- a second, smaller phallus to hang out in Queen Kat?” Klip muttered as she got him ready. 

“Yup. I can even remove it while you’re in stasis so you don’t feel a thing and you’ll wake up- more or less the same way you are right now, if not, just a bit enhanced, here and there.” Hazi offered. 

“Ok, I trust you. Do whatever you think is best and necessary and will help Queen Kat and help you help her and the Hive.” Klip nodded in understanding. 

“Ok Ladies, everyone take an equal number of Super Consorts and lock them into the cells. And then from there, I’ll be able to plug in all the command codes from here.” Hazi urged as she helped Klip up into the cell. 

“Sweet Dreams.” She winked before she shut the cell and turned it on before he slipped into sleep before all of his fellow Super Consorts did the same before Hazi gave all the other cells their instructions before she added extra commands directly to Klip’s cell. 

“Now, all of you, into these cells here. I got some special codes for us too.” Hazi urged as she gently guided them to the cells across from the Super Consorts.

“So what are you giving him that you’re not giving the others?” Hebe asked curiously.

“Well he was the only one to volunteer for the right reasons, so he’s getting the works. The others only wanted more dicks so that’s all they’re getting.” Hazi answered with a bright smile. 

“Are we gonna…?” 

“Get made whole? Hell yeah, no more ugly scars to remind of us a wicked queen. Queen Kat was appalled we were treated so poorly and only wants every single member of her hive and especially her Royal Nursery Executives to be at full strength, full power and full intellect. And even- give us the ability, that should, may the Hive forbid, anything happen to her before she’s able to give us a Super Princess, we’d be able to be Queens in our rights, or, be able to install Little Stubborn in her place. But, now, we get to have follicles again, just in case. And all we would need is to put on the Crown to activate us. That’s it.” Hazi beamed as the girls squealed and jumped up and down in delight before they readily hopped back into the cells and closed the doors, and giggled as Hazi went down the line and put in the codes for each and every single one of them. 

“But what about you?” Hebe asked.

“Well someone has to stay up to watch over the Hive for the night. Besides, you and Queen Kat to see to my own incubation once you guys reemerge from your own first.” Hazi answered. 

“Sweet Dreams.” Hazi offered before she put the codes in and Hebe went down too before Hazi sighed in contentment before she got up and leaned back into the cell on the other side of Klip before she turned her head to consider him. Now that she could see him and actually, truly see him for him. And not just her first impression from him as he seemed to turn his head towards her. Even in sleep. Which got her to grin at his sleeping form. 

“Thanks for coming. I’m glad you’re here.” She whispered before she decided to go and get some bedding and a cot and brought them back into the Royal Comb and laid down, on one side, her true sisters in stasis. On the other, her new Super Queen, her Queen’s favorite Consort and what might, potentially be her very own Consort right next to her. Who knew that a Super Queen was what their Hive needed all along.

Today was a pretty great day. It was hot but it wasn't horrible. All of my groups were really nice. I slept pretty good last night. I had a good day overall. There were a lot of issues with the schedule and a lot of people complaining so I spent some of the day trying to solve some of that but I think it was a pretty successful day overall.

Last night after I finished my post I hung out in here for a long time. I would go out and look at the lightning bugs for a bit. Have a snack. Watch some videos. And eventually I fell asleep. I was trying to stay awake until CJ got here but I dozed and fell out and woke up when she came in. And it was very nice to see her and I'm glad I got to see her on her birthday. And then pretty soon after that I was mostly asleep again and she turned off the light and we went to sleep for real.

In the morning she has to wake up a lot earlier because she is with the SSC group that is doing the kitchen. And I was like mostly asleep while she was getting ready but she turned on the light at one point and that woke me up a little bit more but I just threw the blanket over my head and fell back asleep.

When my alarm went off about an hour later I got up and I felt okay. I was tired but it wasn't like delirious. I would wash my face and get dressed and pretty quickly headed out. It was already past flag and people were in line for breakfast. I went and wash my hands in the bathroom and got my little egg quiche thing and some potatoes. And I went and sat outside and ate that. It was fine. I think there were onions in it. But I'll live. My stomach will just hurt.

I would go to arts and crafts and make sure everything was set up and then laid in my hammock and read for a bit. Just enjoyed the morning. Said hello to people but mostly I was just hanging out and being chill.

And all my groups today were great. Everyone was on time and for the most part they were super chill. And I would send some text to check in with specialty staff but mainly I was just doing my own thing and it was really good.

I really enjoyed all my groups though and they all were so creative. Some groups struggled more than others. I know I hate when people blame COVID on stuff but specifically with the little kids they can't for was having like motor skill issues and problem solving issues that Day Camp one and was not having. Like yes they can't one was using the scissors upside down but they were so creative and doing a great job and understanding how to put paper together with glue without using tape. And then they can't afford today, while they were very sweet, were really struggling. One of the little girls in the group though was one of the children that I had when I was subbing at Bolton Hill nursery. And she was not having those problems at all but I know how the Montessori system was there and she did an amazing job. No problems at all. But some of the other kids were just like can you help me can you do this can you do that and I'm like no because then I'm doing your art and I already know how to do it. Sometimes you just have to let them fail a little bit.

After my first program I would go to the office for an hour because I had no group and I would work on the schedule a little bit. I've decided that there are ways that we can combine some of the program activities into specialty programs and open up some space for field and slingshots and even cabin time. And I know that the office doesn't love cabin time but honestly I think they need it. I understand that they want them to be doing stuff all day but I think we're all just a little too exhausted for that. Kids included. They want to be in the cabins that they paid to stay in. I get it. Hopefully next week they will let that part of the schedule move forward. I think it will help a lot in the long run.

Lunch was pretty good. It was a wrap It was a little boring but it was fine. I enjoyed sitting and talking with specialty staff but we were all pretty tired and hot. We were talking about things that were going wrong with the schedule and just with program stuff in general. Apparently a child broke their arm on Monday. And then Antonio got slammed into a wall over at the rope scores. So that's cool. And there was some mixups in the schedule just because they weren't communicated as well as I hoped. Mainly because I didn't think they needed to be communicated I thought they were straightforward but there was just a little bit of confusion. And you know what that is okay. We will sort it out. I am doing my best and I think everybody understands that at this point that I have no emotional ties to the schedule or any of the programs beyond arts and crafts. I just want everyone to be having a good time that's all that's really important to me. And if things aren't working we should cut them and figure out how to make the schedule work so that it works for everyone for the next 2 months.

After lunch I had my day camp groups. There was some drama with the counselors and one of my counselors cried and I felt so bad. She said she was all right. But I would still check in with Sarah later so that she knew that there was something up. That group possibly needed some more support.

Stockade was my last group of the day and they were great. I got to teach a few of them how to make bracelets and others were painting. And the ones that were painting let me talk about art history at them for a while and I think they thought it was very silly but I was just really enjoying relating their paintings to famous artists and talking about the way that you can talk about art and joking about how much you could sell it for. The one camper made a piece that reminded me of a Rothko and I told him he should name it"Earth (after Rothko)" And it was just a really silly conversation but I was enjoying it and they would clean up pretty well and help me bring in materials. One of the boys even help me rinse out some tie dye shirts that I had forgotten about last week. And then we were done. And I was able to go to my cabin and cool off for a bit.

I would get changed after having a phone call with Sarah Marie about some schedule confusion. And I decided I would just get changed with a pool now because they had pool canoes and I figure I'll just get in the pool then and I'll take a shower and then I can rest before dinner. And that ended up being the best plan possible.

I had a really lovely swim with silver City 3. Who I had had earlier in the day anyway. And I swam around until I was very very tired. And then I took a really good shower. I washed my hair. I wish I had more hair oil with me but the creams I do have are good enough for now. Maybe I'll braid my hair tomorrow if it's too fluffy. I got myself nice and clean though and came back down to my cabin to get changed for real.

I would lay in bed in the air conditioner for an hour or so.just trying to regroup. I considered sleeping but that never actually happened. Instead around 5:00 I would go back to the office to check in with Heather and think about some more of the changes that we might make. And then I went to go sit at the lodge with CJ. Dinner wasn't until 6:00 and it was nice just sitting outside with her and her SSC kids. I think she's doing a really good job even though it's been a little confusing a little hard. And dinner was great. I was the very first one in line and I insisted on multiple pieces of garlic bread. And the baked ziti was really good. I took it and ate at the picnic table down to the pioneer fire pit again. Just enjoyed my own company but it didn't feel lonely this time. The loneliness I felt last week has really dissipated a lot and that feels good. It's not so stressful. I can just enjoy being here.

I would stick around the lodge way longer than I usually like. I sat outside on the rocking chairs and I chatted with some of the teepees. I told Noah about the dream I had last night where he died by getting hit by a roller coaster. Super random but I felt like he needed to know. And one of the SSCs who I used to be one of my favorite stockade boys came up to me and was like I heard you got married! And he wanted to know all about it and it was very sweet. I also told him I got the house and that we went to Alaska and we recently went to Africa and he was like that's so cool You're such a good adult. I was like oh my God thank you I'm like I'm killing it I'm doing such a good job.

And I would stay even longer because the chef said that I should stick around for special dessert. And I was like okay. And it ended up being a banana cake with maple frosting. Not my favorite flavors but the cake itself was a beautiful texture. And he was really excited about it and I was excited for him for being excited about it. I really like our cooks this year they're all really sweet.

I was going to stay for evening program. But after walking around the woodlands village picking up trash. Seeing a dead frog. And checking on some program materials. I sat in the council rang for a few minutes but I got so sweaty and so hot. I noticed that the chocolate bar I had in my backpack I completely melted. Thankfully not on anything but I was just dying and I decided I should just go back to the cabin.

And that's where I am now. Evening program should be finishing up soon. I have cooled off and changed into smaller clothing. Less clothing. And I am just going to take it easy for the rest of the night. Hopefully I can sleep well and tomorrow just be in a really good mood.

I hope that you all have a great night tonight. I hope that you take care of yourselves and I really hope that tomorrow is just a beautiful day. It's supposed to rain tonight and I really hope that knocks down some of the dust that's on everything. And that it is just a really good day. I hope you have fun. Good night everybody.

What’s the Ideal Age for Pre-Nursery Admission in Thane?

In an increasingly competitive and informed education landscape, one of the most important decisions for young families in Thane involves determining the appropriate age for their child’s entry into pre-nursery. With early childhood education playing a pivotal role in shaping lifelong learning patterns, it is essential to understand developmental readiness rather than relying on arbitrary age thresholds.

Universal High School Thane, a leading Pre-primary school in Thane, has developed a curriculum that balances cognitive, emotional, and physical development—ensuring that children take their first steps into formal learning in a nurturing and structured environment.

Developmental Readiness: The Real Benchmark Pre-nursery typically caters to children between 1.8 and 2.5 years of age. However, age alone is not the most reliable indicator of preparedness. At this stage, children begin developing foundational social and motor skills that prepare them for a more structured learning environment.

Indicators that a child may be ready for pre-nursery include:

Sustained attention spans with the ability to engage with people and objects meaningfully for brief periods

Developed motor coordination, such as walking independently and manipulating toys

Early communication cues, including gesturing, simple verbal expression, and name recognition

Natural curiosity and openness to explore new surroundings

Educators at Universal High Thane assess children’s readiness based on these indicators, enabling a smooth and stress-free transition from home to school.

Age Guidelines Followed by Leading Institutions in Thane Most institutions in Thane align with the general guideline of:

Pre-Nursery: 1.8 to 2.5 years

Nursery: 2.5 to 3.5 years

Universal High School Thane follows this widely accepted structure while offering flexibility for children who show early or delayed readiness. The goal is to align admission decisions with the individual child’s development curve, rather than strictly adhering to age-based criteria.

Advantages of Starting Preschool at the Right Stage Initiating a child’s educational journey at the right developmental milestone yields significant benefits across multiple domains:

Accelerated socialization and comfort with caregivers and peer interaction

Enhanced language acquisition through exposure to structured speech, music, and storytelling

Routine and independence as children adapt to schedules and group settings

Cognitive development and cooperation fostered by collaborative play and guided activities

Universal High Thane’s pre-nursery program is structured to cultivate these attributes, blending formal instruction with exploratory learning techniques.

Key Attributes of a Quality Pre-Nursery Program Parents should evaluate pre-primary schools based on both tangible infrastructure and intangible cultural values. A credible pre-nursery program should offer:

A developmentally aligned curriculum tailored to the early years

Purpose-built spaces designed for hygiene, safety, and sensory stimulation

Optimal student-teacher ratios to ensure personalized attention

Qualified early childhood educators trained in modern pedagogy

Active parental engagement through regular communication and updates

Universal High Thane delivers on all these fronts, reflecting its commitment to global standards in foundational education.

How Universal High Thane Facilitates Holistic Early Learning Universal High Thane’s pre-nursery curriculum is designed to foster independence, self-expression, and a love for learning. The school’s approach integrates:

Thematic learning modules designed to stimulate sensory and emotional growth

Hands-on learning zones that encourage exploration and inquiry

Age-appropriate tools and techniques such as Montessori materials, storytelling, and interactive movement

Transparent parent communication through performance insights and community events

This robust pre-nursery model ensures that students are not only school-ready but also equipped with essential 21st-century skills that will support their long-term academic journey—whether in Primary, Middle, or Secondary school levels.

Enabling Confident First Steps: The Universal High Thane Advantage For parents navigating the critical phase of early childhood education, making a timely and informed decision about pre-nursery admission is essential. It is not solely about meeting an age requirement, but about identifying an institution that offers the right developmental environment—both physically and intellectually.

As a trusted Pre-primary school in Thane, Universal High Thane delivers a pre-nursery experience that combines academic readiness, emotional nurturing, and skill development. With its modern infrastructure, expert faculty, and consistent pedagogical vision, the school represents a well-rounded option for families seeking a meaningful start to their child’s educational journey.

For families looking to invest in a future-ready foundation for their child, the pre-nursery experience at Universal High Thane offers the ideal launchpad—where curiosity meets confidence, and every child is empowered to grow with purpose.

Blue Bird Nursery: A Complete Guide to Nursery Admission Age and Play School Admissions

Choosing the right preschool for your child is a significant decision that sets the foundation for lifelong learning. Among the top choices for early childhood education is Blue Bird Nursery, known for its nurturing environment, excellent educators, and holistic development programs. As a parent, understanding the nursery admission age and the play school admissions process can help you make an informed and confident choice for your child’s early education.

Why Choose Blue Bird Nursery?

Blue Bird Nursery has built a reputation for being one of the best early childhood education centers. With a warm, inclusive, and activity-based learning environment, the nursery focuses on a child’s physical, emotional, cognitive, and social development. The staff is well-trained in early childhood pedagogy, and the infrastructure is tailored for young learners — making it an ideal place to start your child’s educational journey.

Whether you’re a first-time parent or experienced, navigating the play school admissions process can be overwhelming. But with Blue Bird Nursery, the process is structured, clear, and supportive from the very first inquiry to the final confirmation.

Understanding Nursery Admission Age

One of the most common questions parents ask is: “What is the right age for nursery admission?”

At Blue Bird Nursery, the recommended nursery admission age is typically between 2.5 to 4 years. This age range aligns with most international early childhood education standards and ensures that children are developmentally ready to engage in structured play and learning activities.

Why Age Matters?

Cognitive Readiness: Around the age of 3, children start developing better language, memory, and attention skills, making it easier for them to follow simple instructions and express themselves.

Social Skills: Kids become more interested in interacting with peers, sharing toys, and learning through group activities — all essential components of the nursery experience.

Independence: Many children at this age begin mastering self-help skills such as feeding themselves, toilet training, and dressing, which helps them adjust to the routine of a nursery environment.

What Are the Requirements for Play School Admissions?

Play school admissions at Blue Bird Nursery are designed to be simple, transparent, and parent-friendly. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of what you can expect:

1. Initial Inquiry and Campus Visit

Parents are encouraged to schedule a visit to the nursery to get a feel of the environment. This allows you to observe the classroom settings, interact with the faculty, and ask questions about the curriculum and facilities.

2. Age and Eligibility Check

The admissions team will check your child’s age to ensure they fall within the right nursery admission age bracket. This is crucial for placing your child in the appropriate class level — whether it’s playgroup, nursery, or pre-KG.

3. Application Form Submission

You’ll need to fill out an admission form, either online or in-person. The form typically requests:

Child’s full name and date of birth

Parents’ details and contact information

Previous daycare/playgroup experience (if any)

Medical history or special needs (if applicable)

4. Document Submission

Along with the application form, parents are required to submit:

A copy of the child’s birth certificate

Recent passport-size photos

Immunization record

Parent ID proof

5. Interaction Session

This is not a test — rather, an informal session where educators interact with the child to assess communication, motor skills, and social interaction levels. It also helps staff understand any special care the child may need.

6. Confirmation and Fee Payment

Once selected, parents will receive an admission confirmation letter and be asked to pay the admission fee to reserve the seat. Blue Bird Nursery offers flexible payment options and assistance to make the process seamless.

What Makes Blue Bird Nursery Stand Out?

✓ Age-Appropriate Curriculum

Blue Bird Nursery follows an internationally-aligned curriculum customized for the nursery admission age group. Each activity is designed to stimulate early learning and spark curiosity. From phonics and storytelling to sensory play and music, children get a well-rounded start.

✓ Highly Trained Educators

The teaching staff is not only qualified in early childhood education but also passionate about nurturing each child’s unique potential. They undergo regular training to stay updated on the latest teaching methodologies.

✓ Safe and Stimulating Environment

From childproof furniture and colorful classrooms to secure play areas and hygienic washrooms, Blue Bird Nursery prioritizes your child’s safety and comfort.

✓ Parent Engagement

Blue Bird Nursery believes in building strong partnerships with parents. Through regular updates, parent-teacher meetings, and open communication channels, the nursery ensures that parents stay involved in their child’s early education.

When to Apply for Play School Admissions?

Admissions at Blue Bird Nursery typically open several months before the academic year begins. For example, for a session starting in April, the admissions process might start as early as November of the previous year.

Early application is advisable due to limited seats and high demand. Some of the key timelines include:

Application Period: November — January

Interaction Sessions: January — February

Final Confirmation: February — March

Keep an eye on the nursery’s official website or social media channels for admission announcements, or register for admission alerts.

Tips for a Smooth Nursery Admission

Start Early: Research and inquire months in advance to avoid last-minute stress.

Prepare Your Child: Introduce simple routines and talk positively about school to help reduce anxiety.

Visit in Person: A physical tour can give you deeper insights than brochures or websites.

Be Honest: Share any health concerns or behavioral notes with staff to ensure your child gets the care they need.

Keep Documents Ready: Ensure all required paperwork is prepared in advance to avoid delays.

Final Thoughts

The early years of education lay the foundation for a lifetime of learning. With the right blend of care, curriculum, and communication, Blue Bird Nursery creates a nurturing space where children can thrive. Understanding the nursery admission age and staying ahead of the play school admissions process ensures that your child gets the best possible start.

Top 10 Reasons Why Parents Prefer CBSE Curriculum for Their Children

Choosing the right curriculum is one of the most important decisions a parent can make for their child’s academic future. Among the many educational boards in India, CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education) continues to be a top choice for millions of parents.

From structured learning and national recognition to future-ready skill development, CBSE offers a well-rounded approach to education that is ideal for both academic excellence and personal growth.

If you’re exploring options for an English primary school in Palghar, a reputed nursery school in Boisar, or a reliable secondary school in Palghar, understanding the advantages of the CBSE board will help you make an informed decision.

1. Nationally Recognized and Standardized Curriculum

CBSE is a national-level curriculum, recognized and followed by over 20,000 schools across India and abroad. It is structured uniformly, which means if your family relocates, your child can continue studies with minimal disruption. This is especially helpful for parents searching for a consistent academic journey, whether in an English primary school in Palghar or elsewhere in India.

2. Strong Focus on Core Subjects

The CBSE curriculum emphasizes essential subjects like Mathematics, Science, English, and Social Studies, which helps students build a strong academic foundation. The board encourages practical learning and analytical thinking rather than just rote memorization.

3. Child-Centric and Holistic Education

CBSE schools follow a student-friendly approach, where education isn’t limited to textbooks. The curriculum supports personality development, communication skills, and creative thinking. Schools like Sanskruti Vidya Sankul implement activities, projects, and value-based learning from nursery to secondary levels.

Whether you’re looking for a nursery school in Palghar or a secondary school in Palghar, CBSE ensures continuity in learning while addressing each stage of a child’s growth.

4. Preparation for Competitive Exams

One of the biggest advantages of CBSE is its alignment with national entrance exams like:

NEET (Medical)

JEE (Engineering)

NDA (Defense)

CUET (Central Universities)

Since the CBSE syllabus overlaps significantly with these competitive exams, students are better prepared from an early stage. This becomes a strategic benefit for parents seeking long-term academic planning.

5. Balance Between Academics and Co-Curriculars

CBSE encourages participation in extracurricular activities such as:

Sports and yoga

Dance and music

Art and crafts

Public speaking and drama

Schools like Sanskruti Vidya Sankul blend these programs into their schedule, ensuring children receive holistic education — a key consideration for parents choosing a nursery school in Boisar or primary school in Palghar.

6. Focus on Language and Communication Skills

English remains the primary medium of instruction in most CBSE schools. For parents seeking an English primary school in Palghar, this ensures that children not only grasp academic content but also develop strong verbal and written communication skills, giving them an edge globally.

7. Skill Development from an Early Age

CBSE curriculum now includes coding, artificial intelligence, financial literacy, and entrepreneurship in middle and secondary levels. These skill-based subjects prepare students for real-world challenges and 21st-century careers.

If you’re considering a secondary school in Palghar, make sure they offer modern, future-ready subjects alongside traditional academics.

8. Strong Evaluation System

CBSE has adopted a CCE (Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation) method, especially in earlier classes. This means students are assessed not only through exams but also through projects, participation, and overall growth.

It reduces stress and creates a more supportive, interactive learning environment — something parents highly value when choosing a nursery school in Palghar or Boisar.

9. Digital Learning and Smart Classrooms

Many CBSE schools now integrate smartboards, e-learning modules, and digital labs to enhance engagement. Sanskruti Vidya Sankul uses a blend of digital tools and teacher-led instruction to improve attention spans and interactive learning.

This makes the CBSE board appealing to today’s tech-savvy generation and reassuring for parents who want their children to keep pace with digital advancement.

PTMs (Parent-Teacher Meetings)

Academic updates

Skill-building workshops

Online dashboards and app-based tracking

For parents evaluating schools — especially for nursery and early primary — it’s comforting to know that CBSE institutions offer transparency and open communication channels.

What’s the Difference Between Nursery School and Preschool?

 Introduction:

As parents begin planning their child's early education, they're often faced with terms like nursery school and preschool which, at first glance, may seem similar. However, these early learning programs have key differences that influence your child’s development, learning experience, and readiness for formal school. Understanding these distinctions can help you choose the right path based on your child’s age, personality, and developmental needs. In this article, we’ll break down the major differences between nursery school and preschool, so you can make a confident, informed decision.

1. Understanding the Basics of Early Childhood Education When it comes to early childhood education, many parents find themselves confused by the terms "nursery school" and "preschool." At first glance, they may seem interchangeable, but they serve slightly different purposes and cater to different age groups. Understanding the distinction between the two can help parents make the best educational choice for their child. Both options aim to prepare children for formal schooling, but the approach, structure, and focus can vary.

2. Age Group and Enrollment Criteria One of the main differences between a nursery school and a preschool is the age group they cater to. Nursery schools usually accept children as young as 18 months to 3 years, focusing on basic motor skills, sensory activities, and play-based learning. Preschools, on the other hand, typically enroll children aged 3 to 5 years, offering a more structured introduction to early academics and social development. This age distinction helps educators provide age-appropriate learning experiences tailored to a child’s developmental stage.

3. Curriculum Structure and Learning Goals Nursery schools emphasize free play, social interaction, and basic routines like eating and toileting. Activities are usually informal and centered around helping toddlers become comfortable in a group setting. Preschools, while still play-based, often follow a more structured curriculum that introduces foundational concepts in literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving. The goal is to prepare children for the academic and behavioral expectations of kindergarten or formal schooling.

4. Daily Routine and Environment In a nursery school setting, the routine is generally more relaxed and flexible, with a strong emphasis on comfort, care, and routine-building. Children nap, engage in sensory play, and develop early social skills. Preschools, on the other hand, usually follow a daily schedule that includes circle time, story sessions, hands-on learning, and outdoor play. This helps children build a sense of structure and routine, which will be essential in primary school.

5. Teacher Qualifications and Training While both nursery and preschool educators require specialized training in early childhood education, preschool teachers often have more advanced qualifications, especially in educational theory and curriculum planning. Nursery caregivers are primarily focused on child safety, hygiene, and basic development, whereas preschool educators are trained to support both developmental and pre-academic milestones. That said, both types of educators play a vital role in shaping a child’s early years.

6. Social and Emotional Development Nursery schools provide a foundation for emotional security and social bonding, helping children adjust to being away from their primary caregivers. Activities revolve around sharing, listening, and understanding emotions. Preschools build on that foundation by introducing more structured group activities and encouraging teamwork, conflict resolution, and self-expression. Both settings support emotional growth, but at different levels of readiness and complexity.

7. School Readiness and Long-Term Benefits Preschools are specifically designed to prepare children for formal schooling, focusing on pre-reading, math, language skills, and independence. The preschool experience often bridges the gap between play-based learning and the classroom expectations of kindergarten or Grade 1. Nursery school, in contrast, is more about helping toddlers adjust to being in a group setting and learning routines. Attending either program helps children transition smoothly into future educational environments, but preschools are more academically focused.

8. Which Option Is Right for Your Child? Choosing between a nursery school and a preschool depends on your child’s age, developmental stage, and readiness. If your child is under 3 and just starting to explore the world outside home, a nurturing nursery school may be ideal. If your child is approaching 4 and beginning to show interest in letters, numbers, and group activities, a preschool may be a better fit. Ultimately, both provide valuable experiences experience. What matters most is finding a center that aligns with your child’s needs and your family’s goals.

Conclusion: Nursery schools and preschools both support early childhood development, they cater to different age groups, goals and readiness levels. Nursery schools focus on care, comfort, and early socialization for toddlers, while preschools emphasize structured learning to prepare children for formal education. Understanding these differences helps you select the environment that best suits your child’s current stage and future growth. Ultimately, whether you choose a nursery or preschool, what matters most is a safe, engaging, and nurturing space where your child feels happy, supported, and inspired to learn.
