Are you the kind of person who loves trees? Many folks are. Even though trees have killed lots of our most-beloved celebrities, a lot of you have a yen for our arboreal pals. They can do no wrong in our minds, and so we tolerate their slow invasion of our properties.
Where I live, we have a sort of feral invasion of poplars. Genius folks who started the city brought them from far away and put them all over the place to provide resale value and pretty green colours, without realizing that they'd get big and mess up the sidewalks. In response, fifty-plus years later, the city has decided to just kill 'em. Fuck those trees, they say, they're near the end of their lives anyway. Keep those taxes low, they say, while driving from site to site in brand new Ram Rebels equipped with the ultra-off-road luxury package.
As a result, a lot of local folks have been galvanized into political action for the first time in their lives. Sure, a lot of horrifying shit has happened in the recent past that should have outraged them more, but these are trees we're talking about. Do not fuck with our trees! Things got so bad that the Mayor decided to stop going to "public engagement" sessions and sent his subordinate instead. His subordinate got his ass whooped so hard by tree people at the last one that he now smells permanently like spruce.
So: more trees? This, too, angers the local populace, who don't want the city to pull up their existing, beautiful trees, and replace them with an inferior local breed. Those trees are where my children used to play! You're destroying history! The city had to pick some kind of compromise, find a useful scapegoat, and coincidentally dispose of the entire contents of the police vehicle seizure lot.
That's where I come in. Sure, it hurts to crash a bunch of decrepit, unregistered 80s-drug-dealer Cadillacs into these old trees, just because the city wants an excuse to get rid of them. It's even sort of demented that I do so with a pine air freshener hanging off the mirror (you really don't want to breathe what these things smell like after a few decades.) And it's not great for what chiropractors call "the back and neckal area." They let me keep the Caddys as payment, though, and I've got a great bodyman who will get them shipshape as soon as he comes back from his jail term for chaining himself to a poplar and screaming obscenities at the Mayor outside of City Hall. Don't worry: I've got lots of new trees growing through the old cars in my backyard for him to hug.

I am not a baby!! (yes you are)
(Ao3) (Masterpost) (Previous) (Next)
(Chapter 17 long ass chappy!!)
As expected, his plan worked! Dami managed to scare off the other Leviathan! The shallows were finally safe again! For the time being at least. Danny paced around his base, celebrating this victory with a thawed peeper. He pondered throwing one to Dami, but they still had yet to make any attempt of eating any fish. Plus, the leviathan might see his offering as an opportunity to chow down on him. They were temporary allies through a shared enemy, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t a potential snack. 
Maybe he should be more concerned about the existence of a third species of leviathan. After all, the existence of three suggests there might be more. Scratch that there were more and that he was certain of. Dami was a graft of two species and Taser fish wasn’t the parent neither was the giant beta fish-looking guy from lurking near Lifepod three. . According to the scanners on his Lifepod, this was a planet mostly composed of water it’d make sense there’d be more nightmare death creatures swimming around in the depths of the ocean. He could easily avoid them if he tried hard enough. A quantum detonation, however, was a threat he couldn’t run from or throw hands with. At least not effectively that is. 
Danny looked down at his message log with a wince. He’d take more nightmare-death fish over the Aurora exploding any day of the week. At least he could fight the leviathans. How was he supposed to fight the genetic meltdown of a peeper blasted with the radioactive energy of a small power plant? It would be like Chernobyl all over again and he wouldn’t have the industrial equipment to clean up the fallout. 
The nuclear power generator was one of the blueprints stripped from his PDA by the crash, as were the disposal protocols that came with it. He had no way to fabricate anything but a primitive water filter. It wasn’t even one of the grayed-out blueprints like the battery charger; it just didn’t exist in his PDA. He wouldn’t be surprised if baby mode blocked the recipe out. It let him build a knife but it wouldn’t let him play with a nuclear reactor the PDA Truly was the most responsible piece of technology on this planet.
God speed Alterra…
Danny snickered, swiping through the screens of his PDA looking desperately for something he could do to help. Was there anything he could do? There wasn’t a blueprint for a radiation suit in his PDA but he was a Fenton! They got irradiated for breakfast. He could at least try, to fix things for both him and the survivors.
Taking out his sea glide Danny shot out his sea base like a speeding bullet. Time is limited and it was slipping through his fingers with every moment he wasted anxiously waiting for the perfect opportunity to help. There had to be at least one life pod that landed in near the Aurora someone who was either stuck in their pods or getting blasted by the bad vibes of the Aurora’s drive core.
Dami watched him intently from the edge of the shallows. Clicking teeth and a worried croon from the leviathan as Danny crept closer to where the crash site should be. He only swam a few feet before Dami bolted from his spot in the sand hands attempting to nudge him back to the shallows. 
With puffed-up cheeks, Danny nipped at the other darting around the leviathan's tail to further his journey. He couldn’t go back to the shallows. He wouldn’t sit there uselessly until things literally blew up in his face. Dami didn’t know how dangerous things could get. He didn’t know the catastrophic consequences this could have on his home.
The waters were murky sand yet to settle and debris scattered across the sand. Any plant life the biome had previously cultivated was crushed, uprooted, and torn apart by the impact. The wrecks in the crash site made the shallows look clean. Metal torn apart like playdough were scattered throughout clouded waters. Not a single place was clear of debris, a burning sensation in his palms the longer he swam.
A stabbing pain like a jackhammer to the skull hit him like a truck. Nausea broiled in his stomach, bile rising up his throat. Danny didn’t stop swimming not when the edges of his vision began to blur not when Dami desperately tried to push him back. Snapping teeth and swiping through the water in an attempt to intimidate him into turning back. Danny didn’t care, he… he had to do something, he had to try.
His PDA screamed, a glitching image that looked concerningly similar to what you’d find on one of the barrels in his parents' lab flashed on screen. It sounded painful, the tablet flashing like a strobe light and a shrieking noise filling his ears. Any words jumbled, thousands of audio cues playing over each other and meshing into of mess of trailed-off screams cut off when the screen went blank.
Fuck.
Shit… That wasn’t a good sign, was it? His pounding head made it hard to truly wrap his head around what just happened. If death would be permanent this time would anyone even know what happened to him? Every distress call he’d responded to every destroyed life pod he found… All of them were gone, reduced to nothing, only a splotch of red if they were lucky. If his PDA was broken how would his family know what happened to him?
Dami screeched, a noise so high-pitched it made his ears ring. The leviathan wrapped his entire body around Danny, his claw barring him from escaping. Panic swirled through his mind before a lower, spine-tingling roar broke through the sea. Peaking through the gaps in Dami’s claws, Danny’s heart jumped into his throat.
A leviathan with a sickly gray body circled them. Pitch black eyes that held something primal. There wasn’t the gleam of intelligence in its behavior, just gnashing teeth and snapping mandibles. Decorated with red, muscle so defined you’d think that was all that made up the creature’s body.
Maybe it was the headache amplifying the noise but the guttural sounds the creature constantly let out were like a nuclear bomb. His eyes stung all he could do was watch as Dami snapped his tail like a whip, slashing at their attacker. Yellow blood spilled into the water and Danny couldn’t tell if it was Dami’s. 
Saying their attacker was aggressive would be an understatement. Nothing seemed to deter the creature. Dami’s strikes only seemed to piss it off further. Every impact from Dami’s tail pulled a furious shriek from the predator. It circled them like a shark, it didn’t care that Dami was much larger it just wanted to eat.
Pointing his scanner through the gaps in Dami’s claws seconds felt like hours as the tool worked its magic. On swing from this worm on steroids and he was triple dead! The thing could swallow him whole with no room left for seconds!
At least it would be a cool death. “Danny Fenton, cause of death; Radiation poisoning and fish bites,” He’d be proud to have that written in his obituary. If anyone survived to collect and fix his PDA it’d be one hell of a conversation starter.
His skin burned like he’d pressed himself against the surface of the sun. His dive suit felt like molten lava and his air tank felt like it was filled with smoke. Dami thrashed slapping the steroid fish into the sand.
They couldn’t keep going. If both he and his PDA were being affected by the radiation then so was Dami. Their attacker wouldn’t hesitate to finish them off if the radiation didn’t melt their internal organs into a shapeless goop. They needed a route to the Aurora that wasn’t surrounded by a toxic death field. But when the death field originated from the Aurora there wasn’t much he could do. There was no safe path to the Aurora so long as he was without a radiation suit.
Danny slapped his palms against Dami’s almost transparent skin. His oxygen running thin, he tugged the leviathan’s fins until the other turned to him. Hopefully, as another sentient creature, he could understand the plea of “Let’s get the fuck out of here before we both die a slow excruciating death,” 
Thankfully, he understood. As Dami snapped his tail at the creature one last time grabbing Danny by his oxygen tank and boosting away from the crash zone. The two of them cut through the water easily gliding faster than his seaglide could at its base. 
Dami wasn’t as muscular as their attacker but he made up for it in size, speed, and intelligence. If they’d stayed to finish the fight Dami was the obvious choice to bet on. He would’ve won if he hadn’t been focused on guarding Danny from being eaten.
When they finally reached the shallows Danny could’ve kissed the sand. He’d never been so relieved to be in the kiddy pool of this planet's ocean. He felt like crying, he’d never abandon his beloved biome of coral tubes again!
Thwack!
A Peeper charged into him, hitting him in the cheek full force. Was this revenge for the fridge? Dami let out what he could only assume was the fish equivalent of a laugh, gently batting the little blue fish away. Danny didn’t have the energy to smack the leviathan for this offense nor did he have the strength to chase the Peeper who attacked him. Sleep never seemed so sweet before but he knew if he slept now he might not wake up to see the light of day again.
Danny watched the faint yellow sparkles trailing behind the fish as it rubbed itself against plants and rocks. More social than the normal peepers swimming around. If you could count tackling everything in sight as a social behavior. Danny scrunched his nose at the offensive fish rubbing the glitter-like substance off his face. If this was how Peepers tried to make friends he’d have to say it’s ineffective. 
Danny turned back to the leviathan, yellow blood oozing from long thin scratches running along his tail. He frowned, that was his fault, wasn’t it? Dami had tried to stop him, likely knowing what lurked near the crash and Danny blatantly ignored him. He’d been naive, thinking he knew better than the literal native who’d likely lived on this planet his entire life. A stupid thing to do even with the risk of an explosion. Especially with the risk of an explosion, a deeper part of his psyche nagged, pulling the bile halfway up his throat. 
What if someone had been with him? Someone had been with him! Dami wasn’t indestructible. What if that thing managed to kill them both? What if he’d gotten Dami killed just by leading them in there? Radiation poisoning was an all but painless death. Vomiting your internal organs in their liquidized form wasn’t a fate he wished on anyone let alone an ally.
The visible injuries on the leviathan seemed to be minor. If the nonchalant way the leviathan lifted Danny to the surface with a clawed hand told him anything. It was good to know they had a mutual understanding that air was a necessity for him. Accidentally being drowned by an ally wasn’t on his list of ideal deaths. Maybe if this were a horror movie he’d be more welcoming to the idea so he could haunt people more than he usually did. 
Danny tapped Dami’s forehead alerting the leviathan to his next movements into the kelp forests. Dami stayed where he was in the shallows, keeping a keen eye on Danny from afar. He swallowed the bile rising up his throat keeping up his routine of bribing the stalkers. They were like gator-shaped trolls. Demanding a toll of fish snacks before they’d ensure a safe passage through the shallows. Some of the bolder ones approached him with open mouths. He didn’t even have to chuck it at them! 
“Warning, leviathan class creature in the area,” He yanked out his PDA brushing his fingers against the screen. The tablet's light was dim but it was working. He could swipe through the tabs and see what the fuck the AI was talking about. It’s a little late for a warning about the leviathan at the crash site.
Danny swiped through the tabs of his PDA landing on the new data entry he’d risked his ass for. Apparently, the empty-eyed fuck they’d been assaulted by was a reaper leviathan. All muscle, tiny brain, and no sense of morality. Danny didn’t know what kind of morals his PDA expected from a fish like that. Lancer always told him not to judge a book by its cover but holy fuck, if Vlad stood next to one of those guys he might actually look decent.
The warning popped up again and Danny’s anxiety spiked. Did a reaper follow them? Was it the Leviathan he’d seen back at life pod three? If it was the stalkers might get to him before he could get close enough to strike him.  He pulled out his blade glancing around the kelp forest. His eyes landed on a glimpse of blue poking out from behind an arch of stone. 
It was talking about Dami, wasn’t it? 
Dami was following him, hiding it quite poorly. It was honestly, embarrassing he hadn’t noticed it sooner. The leviathan was out of his depth, any camouflage the other could have possibly had was squandered by his size. It was probably his size that intimidated everything into not acknowledging him.
Danny ignored the leviathan, mostly to spare the other’s ego. Danny was like a needle in a haystack while Dami was like an elephant in the chicken coop and if this were a game of hide and seek Danny would’ve demolished him by now. 
Using his blade to cut off pieces of creep vine Danny pressed the kelp together, stashing as much as possible into his bag. The fiber mesh he’d make from this would make decent bandages if he couldn’t make the blankets he wanted.
Would bandages even work on Dami? Tying gauze around the leviathan's tail just seemed restrictive. The language barrier would ensure Dami wouldn’t understand he was trying to help. Dami would just see it as Danny mistakeingly assuming he could finish the Leviathan off after a risky encounter with a reaper. He winced, getting slapped to death by an ally would be such a lame way to die. 
There had to be some other way to ensure Dami didn’t die of sepsis or whatever other infections a giant fish teenager could contract. Who was equipped to deal with this kind of thing? A vet or a marine biologist because Danny lacked the qualifications for both professions. He was two for two when it came to dying, any medical advice he could give was just a health hazard. 
Danny swam back to the shallows, Dami clumsily following him. He wasn’t bleeding anymore and Danny could vaguely make out yellow scabs clotting over his injuries. Only time would tell if that was a good sign or not. If there was anything wrong with Dami he’d find a way to fix it. It was his moral obligation to do so. 
Dami protected them from a reaper and the oversized eel! While he’s pretty sure Dami knew electric fish, he still slapped him into pissing off! Making sure the leviathan didn’t die was the least he could do even if he was friends with the electric fish secretly.
The “fight” was far too similar to the ones he’d have Dani or Jazz. Less a fight to the death and more like one of the lectures he’d get from Jazz for doing something stupid. Not antagonistic like the fights he’d have with Vlad. It was more like when Dani would hide his model rockets in the walls when he pissed her off. Dami and the electric fish acted painfully similar to how he acted with his siblings.
Would he ever see them again?
Shaking his head, a croon rippled through shallow water. Dami stared at him with glowing eyes, an expression as concerned as a gigantic fish could get. He crooned again, louder this time. A call probably evolved to be heard in deeper open waters. It wasn’t as effective in the shallows, he could hear Dami anywhere in the shallows no matter how quiet the other tried to be. All this call served to do now was to add fuel to the fire of his splitting headache.
Danny held his head in his hands, Dami taking this as a cue to be a bit quieter. The next croon he let out was softer barely audible but he got his point across. This guy was weird. He fussed over Danny more than he fussed over himself to the point he cramped himself in the shallows to stay here with him. He belonged deeper down, ancients he’d be happier deeper down but he just…stayed here? Sure he tended to follow Danny whenever he had the opportunity but Danny had mostly stuck to the shallows so far. Was this the fish equivalent to tourism? Had the crash screwed over his home so badly he couldn’t live there anymore. 
Danny glanced back to Dami, the leviathan looked perfectly fine but he didn’t exactly have another member of his species to compare to. It was like he was perfectly comfortable acting as Danny’s personal guard dog.
….
He was like a dog to this guy, wasn’t he?
Looking down at his tiny hand Danny squeezed them into fists. Pathetic, hardly a threat at all. Dami’s a teenager and Danny is a itty bitty squishy thing smaller than any of the other survivors. He was like a stray puppy to this guy! Like a little Yorkie happy and cute. 
He scoffed choking on the mouthful of seawater that flooded into his mouth at the action. He wasn’t anyone’s pet! He was the farthest thing from a pet! Sure, he might’ve watched Dami fight like it was a Pokémon battle but he still thought of the guy as a sentient being. It all made sense now, this dude thought he was an animal! There was no way to correct him either! They didn’t speak the same language nor was there a way for them to learn at the moment. 
How would he even go about speaking to him anyway? What was he supposed to say? “Hey, dude sorry for catfishing you but I’m not your pet,” He’d probably be dismissed and then be treated like a parrot. 
Ancients, he’s too nauseous to deal with this shit. Dealing with anything else but this would be better than this. He was stuck with a teenager who was convinced he got a new puppy… No wonder he tapped on the window like a small child seeing the fish tank at the dentist for the first time. 
At least he wasn’t the type of teenager to “Play” rough with his pets. Back home Sam went ape shit on a group of senior boys who kept shooting BBs at one of the oldest boy’s cats. Danny had yet to be manhandled, thrown, or shot at, nor was there any attempt to put him down after he bit him multiple times.
Maybe he was more like a cat?
He wouldn’t degrade himself into being anyone’s catboy. The thought alone made him want to cry. Tucker would never let him hear the end of it if he found out. The hacker would have all the ammo he needed to take revenge for being called a furry so often. He couldn’t let this happen! There’s no way he’d allow himself to be treated like a pet. If Dami ever tried to pet him he’d get stabbed! Puffing up his chest, Danny turned foot and swam back to his base. 
His to-do list was completely and utterly fucked over. Fixing the Aurora had been his top priority but he couldn’t fix it without a radiation suit and a distraction for the buff death fish! It was just like back home, the moment he sat down to knock something off his ever-expanding to-do list the entire universe ganged up on him!  
{Proposed Desagi seabase (200m)}
The signal caught his attention. It was on one of the main tabs of his PDA along with the signals for the Lifepod he’s aware of. On the front page of his to-do list, as a sub-task of finding survivors was searching for the Desagi sea base. Scrunching his face Danny pondered. If the seabase even existed there could be something down there to help him. Even if he didn’t find a survivor, the information he could gain from this could be crucial to figuring out what the hell is going on with this planet.
With the date of Paul Torgal’s environmental log, he could tell the Desagi had been on this planet within the first month of communications with the ship had been lost. Had they ever left? Did they crash or land here willingly for some unknown reason? Was what happened to the Aurora connected to the Desagi? Hopefully, he’d get his answers when he went down to explore.
Staring blankly at the signal, he studied the coordinates and the environmental log thoroughly. The cave he’d entered previously had multiple entrances. It was only logical if members of the Desagi were to build a seabase they’d build it close to an entrance. It was further into the cave system than the entrance he’d swam through had led him. 
He could search around for another cave entrance closer to the signal but it was still 200m down. His lower oxygen needs gave him a leg up but it could only carry him so far. His ability kept him from drowning in shallow water but anything deeper than 100m and it was game over, no restarts or save points!
With his current oxygen tank, he wouldn’t have the time to find the seabase let alone explore it. When the entire point of finding the seabase was exploring, it made his air tank seem about as useful as a warning label on a stick of dynamite. Any idiot with common sense could tell going down there without some kind of plan for oxygen was a sheer way to drown. While his common sense was sparse he still had it.
The blueprints for a seamoth were still missing so he’d have to go on a scavenger hunt for not only the blueprint but the resources to build it. Danny could only wonder how the Seamoth would be altered for him. The seaglide was made slightly smaller but what was it supposed to do about what was essentially just an underwater car? Pedal extensions, A controller, maybe just an autopilot? That was all he was willing to work with, a booster seat was too humiliating for his bruised ego to take. 
Along with a seamoth he’d need to upgrade his tank and replace the batteries for his seaglid. The seaglide drained power like spectra drained the happiness from children.
Digging through his storage lockers he scavenged the glass he needed for his new air tank. He fed the fabricator the ingredients waiting eagerly as the light show began. A loud jarring noise sounded from his PDA the moment the new air tank touched his hands. 
“New blueprint acquired.” The robotic voice drawled.
Danny glanced down at the tablet, staring slack-jawed at the appearance of the rebreather on his list of blueprints. Convenient, he didn’t dare question the PDA’s choice of only giving him the blueprint now instead of after all the other times he almost died. It was painfully easy to gather the materials he needed. With the creepvine he’d collected earlier he was set to make the rebreather.
Now all he had to do was get past Dami…
Why did he have a feeling that was going to be easier said than done?

Mateo Keller background
Tumblr media Tumblr media
42 yrs, black hair slicked back, grey roots just starting to show, amber eyes, lots of wrinkles/smile lines, persistent 5 o'clock shadow, 6’2”
fluent in spanish
serial killer/rapist. vulgar and despicable. Outwardly, he’s loud, friendly, and jokes a lot. 
capricorn (dec 31, 1975ish)
FAMILY: mom, dad, two brothers. Large extended family. None of them know about what he does.
Mr. Keller- loves his son very much, and thinks he’s doing very well for himself. He still thinks he works in construction. 
Mrs. Keller- old and tired. quiet. loving. 
Hector- older brother- doesn’t pay any attention to Mateo, and yet, Mateo looked up to him when he was younger. He was hurt in an accident as a teenager, disabling him. Wheelchair bound. Mateo witnessed the accident.
Antonio- younger brother- thinks Mateo is the worst because he’s a bully who ruins everything, and doesn’t get why everyone likes him. He has no idea what happened to Joaquín.
As a child, Mateo was a little brute. His parents had their hands full raising 3 unruly little boys, and even with the whole family’s help, nobody ever noticed that Mateo wasn’t quite right. Sure, he played rough with other kids, but boys will be boys, right?
He and his brothers were always expected to work in construction, just like their dad and uncles. His mom insisted he finish school first, so that’s what he did. His first victim was in high school. Joaquín was Antonio’s best friend. Mateo came onto him, but Joaquín denied his advances. Joaquín never told anybody what happened and he eventually dropped out. Mateo kept his eye on him. Mateo graduated, started working at his uncle’s site, and moved into his own apartment. He found Joaquín again and raped him, and the next day, Joaquín killed himself. 
Mateo’s second victim, Elijah, was a stranger he spotted on the street. He stalked, cornered, and raped him, but during the assault Elijah had a seizure and hit his head, killing him. Mateo covered it up. Community members were concerned, but nothing pointed to Mateo.
His third victim, Jack, was his first actual premeditated abduction. Mateo didn’t count on Jack fighting back so hard. His fighting back resulted in his accidental death. After that, Mateo bought a gun. 
His victim criteria is broad, since he doesn’t have a specific type, but they're all young men whose disappearances won’t be seen as suspicious. If they're too noticeable, Mateo doesn’t go after them. 
Mateo finally reached a system (stalk, kidnap, photograph, rape, kill, dispose, repeat) a couple years after starting out. He always liked taking pretty pictures of boys who caught his eye, so when a friend at the construction site saw his camera, he suggested selling photos for extra cash, not knowing exactly what Mateo was taking pictures of. As it turned out, that guy was also a pervert and became one of his first customers. 
Once his human trafficking side job picked up, he quit construction when he was 30. On paper somewhere, he still works for his cousin’s company. 
He has several dozens of clients in rotation, and he delivers weekly bundles of polaroids to each, depending on their preferences. He also films one video a week, which costs extra. Occasionally he streams live, and the cover fee is much steeper, but also occasionally takes requests. 
He’s had romantic relationships with women in the past, but they were facades. He can make himself out to be a charming man, but it’s all a fake. He successfully passes himself off as a normal guy. He never lets people get too close.
He usually drives a light blue Ford F-150, a hand-me-down from his father, but he has several other vehicles that were stolen from previous victims. (A blue sedan, a grey van, a grey jeep wrangler). He always carries his glock with him, but owns several other handguns so he doesn’t leave any consistent forensic evidence.
He has several safehouses spread over adjoining states. A couple isolated houses, cabins, an abandoned hotel, an empty warehouse, an old factory. When one area gets too much police attention, he moves on to another. Most of the money he earns from his operation goes into keeping it a secret. He makes tens of thousands from each victim, which is enough to cover costs for upkeep of getaway vehicles/safehouses and bribing the authorities. 
He's never been caught for rape or kidnapping before because there was never enough solid evidence to condemn him. It's usually only "circumstantial" (thanks to a couple of his clients being cops.) He's done time for smaller crimes though:
He served several months for stealing a car.  It belonged to a coworker from his old construction job. He was going to use the vehicle as a getaway car when abducting a victim but never got the chance. He wasn't charged with grand theft auto- it was a joyriding misdemeanor. He got off easy. 
He served a few months on a trespassing charge when he was scouting new locations to hold victims. Turns out the place wasn’t abandoned. 
He keeps mementos of his past victims. Usually it’s just clothes or polaroids. He’s not very violent towards his victims. He’ll hit them occasionally to get them to behave, or threaten them with his gun, but he doesn’t cut them. He doesn’t especially enjoy being violent, it’s just a tool for him.
He always kills his victims. It’s not personal, he’s just done with them and chooses to dispose of them to start again. When he gets bored with them after several months, he takes them out into the middle of nowhere and shoots them in the back of the head and buries their corpse. He doesn’t have one specific dumping location and he doesn’t visit the graves of his victims.

Why Data Security Starts with E-Waste Disposal
Tumblr media
In today’s data-driven business environment, cybersecurity is a top priority but many organizations overlook a critical threat: improper disposal of outdated electronic equipment. Every retired laptop, desktop, server, or storage device is a potential gateway to data breaches if not handled with care.
At the core of effective data security lies a robust e-waste disposal strategy. Storing or discarding electronic devices without certified destruction protocols exposes your business to severe risks—financial, legal, and reputational.
1. Residual Data = Security Risk
Even after deleting files or reformatting hard drives, residual data often remains recoverable. Without certified data destruction, old IT assets become vulnerabilities, susceptible to unauthorized data recovery, corporate espionage, identity theft, and regulatory violations.
2. Legal Compliance & Regulatory Framework
In India, the E-Waste Management Rules and the IT Act, along with international frameworks such as GDPR and ISO 27001, require secure data handling even at end-of-life. Failure to comply may result in heavy penalties, loss of certifications, and legal action.
3. Why E-Waste Disposal Matters to Your Business
Data leakage can expose sensitive information. Regulatory violations can lead to fines. Environmental damage from improper disposal can tarnish your reputation. And missed opportunities for asset recovery mean lost value. Secure e-waste disposal addresses all these concerns.
4. The Role of Certified E-Waste Partners
Working with certified e-waste management providers ensures secure, verifiable data destruction (with certificates), environmentally responsible recycling, full compliance with CPCB, ISO, and EPR standards, and end-to-end tracking and documentation.
Why Choose Techazar
Techazar is a leading B2B e-waste recycling company in India, offering comprehensive IT asset disposal and data destruction services across all major cities.

Best Web Development Company in Dubai: How to Spot the Real Experts
There are plenty of agencies that claim to build websites. But building a great website? One that doesn’t just load fast but drives conversions, scales smoothly, ranks well, and earns its ROI every single month? That’s a different game.
In Dubai’s competitive digital scene, where everyone is shouting about innovation and next-gen tech, it can be hard to tell who really knows their stuff from who’s just good at making pitch decks.
So, if you’re a business owner, marketer, or decision-maker trying to vet your options, here’s a practical guide to spotting the real experts.
Tumblr media
1. Strategy First, Not Templates
This is the single biggest red flag: if an agency opens the conversation with colour palettes, logo placements, or how many pages you need, stop them right there.
The best firms begin with questions like:
What’s your business model?
What does success look like for your site?
Who is your audience and what do they struggle with?
They’re not trying to sell you a design. They’re solving a problem.
This is exactly why clients working with a digital marketing company in Dubai often see better long-term results, because strategy and site design are treated as inseparable.
2. Tech Stack Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All
Real experts don’t force-fit your business into the same WordPress theme they’ve used for 50 other clients. They match the tools to your needs.
That could mean:
A fast static site for an info-heavy SaaS business
A scalable Shopify Plus setup for a global e-commerce store
A custom Laravel backend for enterprise operations
Good developers can explain why they’re choosing a stack, what its tradeoffs are, and how it will grow with you.
3. Real Projects, Not Mockups
Always ask to see live URLs of recent work, not just a Behance portfolio or screenshots.
Then dig deeper:
What was the goal of this site?
What problem did you solve?
What results came from it?
If they can’t speak confidently to the journey, the obstacles, and the outcomes, it’s likely they were only involved in design or frontend.
Experts love to talk shop. Their eyes light up when they walk you through a project they’re proud of.
4. Clear Process with Milestones
Professionals don’t wing it. They have frameworks.
From kickoff to launch, the process should look something like this:
Discovery & Requirements
UX Research & Wireframes
Visual Design
Development & Testing
SEO Setup & Analytics
Launch + Post-launch Support
At each stage, you should know:
Who’s doing what
What tools they’re using
What feedback they need
If someone says they can do it all in 10 days with a couple of Zoom calls, run.
5. Post-Launch Isn’t a Goodbye
Websites are living assets. They require ongoing updates, performance reviews, A/B testing, and tech upkeep.
Real agencies build in long-term support plans. These might include:
Monthly performance reviews
Security patches and plugin updates
UX optimization based on heatmaps
This long-view approach is exactly what separates solid dev partners from disposable freelancers. And it’s why businesses who hire teams offering digital marketing services in UAE often stick with them for years.
6. Results Over Awards
Sure, it’s nice if a firm has won a few design awards. But that doesn’t mean much unless those sites are ranking, converting, and helping businesses grow.
Look for agencies who measure:
Bounce rate reductions
Conversion lifts
Lead form submissions
Load time improvements
Because at the end of the day, your website needs to drive business, not just look good in a trophy case.
Tumblr media
7. Client Education Is Baked In
Top-tier developers don’t just hand off a CMS login and disappear. They:
Train your team
Record walkthroughs
Document admin panels
Offer clear change logs
They want you to be confident using the site. Because educated clients make better decisions, and better decisions lead to better outcomes.
This is why those looking for affordable digital marketing services Dubai value education alongside execution.
8. Communication Is Consistent, Clear, and Human
You should never feel like you’re chasing updates or decoding jargon.
Great agencies:
Assign a project manager
Use shared boards (Asana, ClickUp)
Hold weekly check-ins
Summarise progress clearly
And here’s a bonus tip: notice how they respond in the sales process. That’s the best preview of what working together will feel like later.
9. They Talk SEO Early and Often
SEO isn’t a plugin you tack on at the end. It’s embedded into architecture, content, and page speed.
Experts will:
Plan site structure for indexability
Set up schema markup
Compress images for performance
Configure 301s, not just leave broken links
This holistic approach is common among teams known as the best digital marketing company in Dubai, who understand that SEO starts before a single line of code is written.
10. They Say No (Sometimes)
Yes-men will let you walk into bad decisions. Experts will push back when needed.
They might say:
“This feature is too heavy for mobile.”
“That plugin will slow your site down.”
“You don’t need that custom dev, here’s a smarter solution.”
They’re not trying to win you over with flattery. They’re trying to protect your time, budget, and future headaches.
And that’s priceless.
Red Flags to Watch For
If you see these, pause:
Overly generic proposals
No mention of analytics or SEO
Everything runs through a single freelancer
No real project timeline
A quote that sounds too cheap to be true
Web development isn’t a commodity. It’s a business tool. And like any tool, you get what you pay for.
Questions to Ask Before You Sign Anything
Here’s your shortlist:
Can I see three live projects you’ve launched in the past year?
What happens if the project goes over scope or deadline?
Will I own my code, assets, and hosting?
How do you handle mobile optimization?
What’s your post-launch support plan?
And most importantly: 6. Can you walk me through a recent client challenge you solved and what the outcome was?
If they’re vague or deflect, you’ve got your answer.
Tumblr media
The Bottom Line
In a city like Dubai, where competition is intense and attention spans are short, your website is your sharpest tool.
But that tool is only as good as the hands that built it.
Working with real experts means you’re not just getting a site that loads. You’re getting a site that sells, scales, and adapts to the fast pace of your industry.
So, take your time. Ask the hard questions. Look past the pretty visuals and dig into the process.
And if you want a team that ticks all these boxes—strategy, SEO, security, support—start with those offering proven digital marketing services in UAE. Because great web development isn’t just about tech. It’s about trust.
That’s how you spot the real experts.

Trusted Secure Shredding & Data Disposal
Tumblr media
In today’s digital and paper-based world, keeping sensitive information safe is more important than ever. Businesses and individuals alike must take responsibility for securely disposing of confidential data. That’s where secure shredding comes in—an essential service to prevent data breaches, fraud, and identity theft.
Why Secure Document Shredding Matters
Document shredding ensures that your personal, financial, or client-related paperwork is destroyed beyond recovery. Simply discarding documents in the bin can leave you vulnerable to data theft. Secure shredding companies use industrial-grade shredders that comply with data protection laws such as GDPR, ensuring full confidentiality.
Whether you’re a small business clearing old files or a large corporation managing regular waste, professional document shredding services offer peace of mind.
The Importance of Hard Drive Shredding
Tumblr media
While paper shredding is essential, don’t overlook the risks of electronic data. Hard drive shredding is the only guaranteed way to destroy digital data permanently. Deleting files or reformatting a drive isn’t enough—data can still be recovered using specialized tools.
Hard drive shredding physically destroys the storage device, making recovery impossible. Certified providers issue a destruction certificate as proof of compliance, which is especially important for regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and legal services.
Mobile and On-Site Shredding Solutions
Leading providers now offer mobile shredding units that come directly to your location. On-site secure shredding gives you full transparency—you can watch the destruction process happen in real-time. Whether it's for regular service or a one-off purge, mobile shredding adds an extra layer of confidence.
Some companies also offer secure collection services, transporting materials to a certified shredding facility under strict chain-of-custody protocols.
Environmentally Friendly Shredding
Tumblr media
Another benefit of choosing professional shredding services is environmental responsibility. Most shredded paper is recycled into new paper products, and destroyed hard drives are sent to certified e-waste recycling centers. That means your document shredding efforts help reduce landfill waste while protecting your business.
Conclusion
Whether you're dealing with outdated paperwork or old electronics, proper data disposal is non-negotiable. Secure shredding, document shredding, and hard drive shredding services protect your sensitive information, keep your business compliant, and help the environment.
Choose a trusted shredding provider with certifications, transparency, and experience to ensure your data is destroyed safely and responsibly.

Why Data Privacy Matters in E-Waste Disposal
Tumblr media
In an era where data is one of the most valuable business assets, the way organizations handle their old electronics can make or break their reputation. While e-waste disposal is often seen through the lens of environmental impact, there’s a far more silent and dangerous threat data privacy breaches.
Disposing of IT assets without ensuring complete data destruction can expose sensitive business and customer information. That’s why secure e-waste management is no longer optional it’s essential.
The Invisible Threat in Discarded Devices
Outdated computers, laptops, servers, hard drives, and mobile phones may appear useless, but they often retain confidential data even after being formatted. Improper disposal methods can leave this data vulnerable to:
Unauthorized recovery
Corporate spying
Identity theft
Data breaches leading to legal liabilities
This overlooked risk can have significant consequences for businesses across all sectors.
Regulatory Responsibilities and Compliance
With rising global awareness of data privacy, laws such as GDPR, ISO 27001, and India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act have made secure data handling mandatory. Companies failing to comply with these standards during e-waste disposal can face:
Regulatory penalties
Civil lawsuits
Loss of client trust
Operational disruptions
To remain compliant and secure, companies must engage with certified e-waste recyclers who follow internationally recognized data destruction protocols.

Secure Shredding Services in Ireland: Protecting What Matters Most 📄🔒
In an era where data breaches and identity theft are becoming more common, managing sensitive documents with care is more important than ever. Whether you're a large corporation or a small business, protecting confidential information is not just a best practice—it's a necessity. That's where document shredding comes in, providing peace of mind and ensuring that private information stays private.
Across Ireland, more businesses and individuals are turning to professional shredding services to safeguard their data. But what exactly makes secure shredding such an essential service? And how can you be sure your sensitive materials are handled with the highest level of security and care?
Tumblr media
Let’s dive into the world of confidential shredding and why it’s vital for your data protection strategy.
Why Document Shredding Matters 🗂️✂️
Many businesses handle vast quantities of paperwork every day—from financial records and legal contracts to personnel files and client information. Even with a move towards digital storage, paper documents are still a big part of operations. When these documents are no longer needed, simply throwing them in the bin isn’t enough. That’s where document shredding becomes critical.
By securely destroying old or unnecessary records, you protect against identity theft, corporate espionage, and data leaks. It's not just about compliance with data protection laws—it's about protecting your clients, your employees, and your business reputation.
The Power of Secure Shredding 🔐
Secure shredding goes beyond just feeding papers into a shredder. It’s a full-service approach to managing and disposing of confidential information with the utmost care. Professional shredding services use industrial-grade shredders that turn documents into tiny, unreadable fragments—far more secure than what a standard office shredder can do.
In addition to physical destruction, top providers offer secure storage bins, regular collection schedules, and certificates of destruction to verify that your materials have been safely handled. This not only adds a layer of trust, but also keeps you compliant with GDPR and other data protection regulations in Ireland.
Who Needs Shredding Services? 👨‍💼🏢📦
Tumblr media
The need for shredding services isn't limited to big corporations. A wide range of industries and individuals benefit from confidential shredding, including:
Healthcare providers, who handle patient records and sensitive health information.
Legal firms, dealing with confidential case files and contracts.
Educational institutions, managing student data and academic records.
Financial services, including banks and accounting firms, which work with sensitive financial documents.
Home offices, where personal records, bank statements, and tax files accumulate over time.
No matter the size of your operation, confidential shredding ensures that any private information is completely irretrievable once it's no longer needed.
Paper Shredding in Ireland: What to Expect 🇮🇪🗃️
Ireland has strict standards when it comes to data protection. GDPR regulations require companies to handle and dispose of personal data responsibly, with heavy penalties for violations. This has led to a rise in demand for reliable paper shredding services across the country.
When choosing a provider in Ireland, you’ll want to look for one that offers:
On-site and off-site shredding options
Lockable bins or consoles for secure storage before collection
Regular service schedules for ongoing needs
One-time purge services for large clearouts
Recycling of shredded materials to support sustainability
Reliable providers work closely with clients to create customised solutions that meet both legal requirements and operational needs.
Confidential Shredding: More Than Just Paper 🧾📁📦
While paper shredding is the most common request, confidential shredding can cover a wide range of materials. Think of hard drives, USBs, CDs, ID cards, uniforms, and even branded merchandise. Anything that holds sensitive or proprietary information can pose a risk if not properly destroyed.
This is especially crucial for businesses upgrading their IT systems. Simply deleting files or reformatting drives doesn’t guarantee your data is gone. Secure shredding of electronic media ensures total destruction, eliminating any chance of recovery.
Green and Clean: Eco-Friendly Shredding Initiatives 🌍♻️
Tumblr media
Beyond the security benefits, document shredding is also an environmentally conscious choice. Reputable shredding services in Ireland ensure that 100% of shredded paper is recycled. That means your old documents don’t just disappear—they’re transformed into new paper products, reducing waste and helping to protect the planet.
Using eco-conscious shredding solutions allows you to meet your sustainability goals while protecting sensitive data. It’s a win-win. 🌱📘
Signs It’s Time to Shred 📆📉
Not sure if you need shredding services? Here are a few signs that it might be time:
Your office is drowning in old paperwork 📚
You’re unsure how long to keep records for compliance
Your team is using in-office shredders that jam or break easily
You’re moving or downsizing your office space
You’re upgrading IT systems and need to dispose of outdated hardware
If any of the above sound familiar, it might be time to consider a secure shredding solution tailored to your needs.
Peace of Mind, One Sheet at a Time 😊🧾✅
There’s a certain peace of mind that comes with knowing your sensitive documents have been securely and permanently destroyed. Whether it’s quarterly financial reports, confidential HR files, or personal information that’s no longer needed, professional shredding services give you the security and compliance you need.
From small offices in rural Ireland to large corporations in Dublin and Cork, businesses everywhere are trusting secure shredding providers to manage their document destruction. It’s not just a service—it’s an investment in your company’s future.
Final Thoughts 📝
Confidential shredding is more than a compliance checkbox. It’s about showing your clients, your staff, and the public that you take data security seriously. With the right provider, document shredding becomes a seamless part of your operations, freeing up space, reducing risk, and keeping you in line with Ireland’s data protection standards.
When it comes to protecting what matters most, don’t leave it to chance—shred it securely. 🔒🗑️
