you invite him inside

It's Summer 2007, and you're on your way home from a party in Edinburgh. You encounter an exceptionally forward Scottish stranger with a buzzed head and a brow ring, calling himself Soap - you roll the dice, and let him walk you home.

a/n: this is (some) of the first chapter of my longfic Trainspotting on A03, bitterfruit. I thought I'd share on here since I'm working on a part 2!! ♡

You carve through the beating crowd of the house party; sloshing drinks and drunken hands intercept you as you attempt to navigate your way to the front door. MGMT’s Kids thunders from the speakers in the hallway, its deafening volume only exacerbated by the passionate chanting of the dancers that hover around it.

Control yourself! Take only what you neeeed from it!

Your friend Katie, who had brought you as a plus-one, had long disappeared with some boy she had been all over - taking your coat with her - leaving you to make your way home in nothing but your needlessly skimpy playboy bunny costume.

Finally stumbling out of the dense jungle of partygoers, you burst through the front door as if you’d just been birthed, sweaty and panting. 

Just a fifteen-minute walk.

With your arms crossed, you trudge down the steps in the stiletto pumps you had borrowed from Katie – glossy, sharp, and a size too small. Fuck, they ache. Before you even make it past the gate, you throw in the towel and unstuff your feet from their latex trappings; holding the shoes with two fingers hooked at the heels, doing your best to avoid stepping on the broken glass on the footpath.

As your distance from the house party grows and the echoes of Paper Planes begin to fade, it dawns on you that you’re far drunker than you had believed yourself to be. Being surrounded by students two boxes and three pingers deep has the tendency to make you feel staunchly sober by comparison.

Still, you feel the slabs of concrete wobbling beneath your feet, your head starts to spin like you’ve stepped off a carousel if you shut your eyes for too long. The streets are utterly quiet, devoid of cars or people, despite the neighbourhood’s proximity to the CBD. You may well have found it off-putting if you were sober, but in truth, you’re just thanking Christ there’s nobody around to see you trotting down the road in nothing but a bodysuit and fishnets. You imagine a car might pull up alongside you, rolling slowly on its wheels as the driver asks through his window, “how much for an hour?”

And that would almost be preferable to what you actually encounter once you’re halfway home – crossing the street, stumbling in your bare feet as you walk past shops with steel shutters blocking their doors and windows.

You hear the distinctive thuds of sprinting feet from far behind you; the soles of sneakers slamming hard on the footpath, in a rapid enough pace that the person might as well be an Olympian runner. As they get louder, closer, your first instinct is to flee – but before you even have the chance to turn to look over your shoulder, the sprinter has come to a screeching halt beside you, tearing off their jacket and tossing it over your shoulders as if it were a cape.

“What the fu–” You yelp, hastily cut short.

“Shh – shut up, pretend y’know me.”

A man, and a local, evidently – the kind of Scottish accent so thick you can barely distinguish the beginning of one word from the end of another. 

“Get away fr–”

He interrupts you once again, tossing an arm over your shoulder as he walks alongside you, shoving his other fist into the pocket of his loose black jeans. “Please, lassie, do me a favour and just go with it.”

Amidst his breathlessness he sounds quite desperate – voice deep and warm, oozing sincerity despite the edge in his tone. So you weigh your options, whether or not to trust him, or to help him, or to scream and flee. You tilt your head just enough to take a peek at him; he hunches over, shoulders shrugging high as if keeping his neck warm, head low like it might hide his buzzcut from whoever may be chasing him.

You quickly discover that there are, in fact, people chasing him – more echoes from further down the road of multiple sets of running feet. You hear an enraged roar from a man behind you; your body tenses on instinct, head twisting further in the hopes of checking how close they are to you.

“Don’t look at ‘em,” he instructs you pointedly, under his breath.

More indistinguishable yelling erupts from his pursuers, though they no longer seem to be approaching. “Cheap fucken’ trick, ye fucken’ coward!”

“Keep walkin’ with me,” he mutters, tugging you along with his heaving arm draped around the back of your neck, forcing you to accelerate so that you can keep up with him.

Adrenaline throbbing hotly in your ears, you try to steal glances at the controlling stranger, not able to see much of him in your periphery. You realise now that the gifting of his jacket was not a chivalrous gesture, but a failed attempt to trick his pursuers. “Sounds like they’ve spotted you,” you whisper-yell, facing ahead.  

“Aye,” he grunts, “but they won’t touch me if there’s a witness.”

“I don’t want to be a witness,” you squeak, nervous terror in your throat.

He chuckles breathily, gives a single shake of his head. “Too late.”

“Next time I see ye, yer a fucken’ dead man, hear me? With or without yer hoor!”

The stranger groans as he scoops you around a corner, keeping a hurried pace, shooting looks over his shoulder to ensure he’s no longer being followed. Fortunately ��� or, unfortunately – this was the corner you would have taken anyway.

“Did he just call me a whore?” You whisper, still in shock.

He chortles at you again, sliding his weighty arm from your shoulders and releasing you at long last. “Ignore ‘em. Fucken' wankers.”

You finally have the opportunity to turn around fully to check behind you, seeing only empty, silent street.

“They won’t follow us,” he assures you, still walking alongside you, arrogant in his assumption that you won’t tell him to fuck off.

But you don’t, not yet. “Why – why were they chasing you?”

“Nosy wee thing, aren’t ye?” He smiles, crossing his arms, and you finally get a good look at him.

Hair buzzed short, the sort of job he likely did himself over his sink with an electric clipper plugged into the wall. A curved barbel pierces through the tail of his left eyebrow, almost as flashy as the sharp grey eyes pointing down at you from beneath it. His grin pushes dimples into his densely stubbled cheeks, revealing charmingly crooked teeth, and a golden crown on his right canine.

There’s something tired, jaded about him, dark eyes and low brows; face speckled with a variety of little scars, one white slash through his right eyebrow, a few pink lines carving over his temple and through his shaven scalp.

You blink, reminding yourself to speak.

“Nosy?” You snap, “you brought me into this!”

He tilts his head, appearing to acquiesce. “Aye, true. They’re just mad ‘cos I short-changed ‘em.”

As he shrugs, the hem of his cropped t-shirt tugs up on his stomach, revealing the hem of plaid boxers sticking out from his baggy trousers, a sliver of firm abdomen, a dusting of curly hair trailing down from his navel. You swallow.

“Hm. For what?” You pester.

“Now yer bein’ nosy.”

You huff, crossing your arms underneath the cape of his jacket, checking over your shoulder one last time to be certain you’re no longer being stalked.

“Fine,” you pout. After a beat of silence, you decide to add; “I’m not a prostitute, by the way.”

He snickers hoarsely, “’course not. Prostitutes are much more subtle. You’d be the first I’ve ever seen dressed as a – a what, a bunny?”

He reaches behind you, the cocky prick, lifting the back of his cloaking jacket and flicking the puffball pinned to your ass. You gawk at him, a surge of adrenaline buzzing within your chest – curious, that it’s not out of fear but fascination.

“See a lot of prostitutes, do you?” You sneer, noting how briefly his gaze lingers on your backside before it flits to your face.

“Not ‘round this side of town,” he chortles. You suspect he’s joking, but who’s to say? “So… why a bunny?”

“Playboy bunny,” you correct him, turning your head to glance at him; he just looks bewildered. “Pimps and hoes party.”

He laughs, richly, lurching forward as he does. “Ha! Had no idea they still did those.”

“Sure do,” you say, failing to suppress your grin. “Too old for them, are you?”

“Aye, for house parties full o’ students,” he admits, “but not too old to party. M’only twenty-six.”

You smile. “Good for you.”

“Got no girlie-mates to walk ye home?” He changes the subject.

Peeking at him, you squint. “You’re not supposed to ask a girl if she’s alone, you know.” 

“Oh,” he frowns, “why’s that?”

“Like, stranger danger.”

“Yeah?” He chuckles deeply. “Do you think I’m dangerous?”

You turn to look at him, running your eyes from his cocksure grin, down to his Chucks and back again. He certainly looks the part. Rough around the edges. You wonder if you would have avoided him, had he not approached you so blithely.

“Very,” you nod. “Plus, you’re following me.”

“Am I?” He jibes, “well, love, if ye want me to leave y’alone, tell me and I’ll try to leave ye be.”

Your pout shifts into a girlish smirk despite your dire efforts to contain it. “You’ll try?”

“Mm. Might be easier said than done,” he ribs, leering down at you. Your quiet titter only serves to embolden him. “It’s probably for the best that I found ye.”

“You reckon?”

“Mm. Not very bright o’ye to be walking home by yerself at this hour. And in that.”

You click your tongue impatiently. “You sound like my mum.”

“Then she’s a smart woman,” he says, with a sternness that leaves you taken aback.

You peer up at him, scrutinising. For fuck’s sake, you curse at yourself, get a grip. All better judgement, your guardian angel, screams at you to stop flirting with this bizarre studded stranger and hurry your ass home. But the little devil on your other shoulder is far more interested in seeing how this unusual interaction plays out.

“You gonna protect me, are ya?” You probe.

“Naturally,” he chuffs.

“Walking me home, then?”

A devilish grin stretches in his lips. “Happily.”

“Promise you’re not a psychopath or something?”

He inhales deeply, blowing a raspberry as he puts his hands on his hips. “No promises.”

“Mm. Well, I shouldn’t be surprised,” you say, “only psychopaths would roam the streets at three-a.m.”

“Yeah? What does that make you?”

You giggle. “Shit. You got me.”

“You bet I do. What kind of psycho wears a fucken’ outfit like that ‘on the streets at 3-a.m.’?”

Taking a peek down at yourself, you’re confronted immediately by your obnoxious cleavage, unsure how you could have forgotten it was there. You decide to slip your arms into the roomy sleeves of his jacket, wearing it properly rather than as a cloak – much warmer.

“What’s wrong with it?” You wonder in jest, feigning offence.

“Yer jokin’.” He scoffs.

“What?” You gaze at him, with a cock of your brow; he unashamedly glowers at you, vibrantly grey eyes raking from your lips to your feet before climbing back to your stare.

He huffs petulantly. “I could see yer tits from across the street,” he murmurs, “don’t make me say something about the stockings.”

You laugh coyly, feeling your cheeks burn hot and red. Seems like you got the answer you wanted. “S’that why you ran up to me, huh?”

He shakes his head. “Nae. That was just dumb luck.”

“Ah. Lucky you.”

“Mhm,” he rumbles, voice low, “very lucky.”

Why is your heart fluttering? Why are you suddenly hanging on his every word like a fucking teenage girl? You blame the cherry-flavoured RTDs you were knocking back every ten minutes while you were at that party. They’ve made your cheeks all pink and your tongue all wet.

Yet in the current quiet, strolling nonchalantly down an empty street at half-past three in the morning, you don’t feel any awkwardness in the silence. You just smile at your feet like an idiot.

“What’s yer name, then?” He asks casually, both fists in his pockets.

You hum in thought, “hmm. I can’t tell you that.”

“Oh? Why not?”

“You’re a stranger, remember?”

“So?” He disputes, grinning and playfully biting his bottom lip with his top teeth, brandishing that glistening golden canine.

You shake your head. “Who knows what you could do with my name! You could be a stalker for all I know,” you explain defensively, “you might find out where I work on MySpace, or something.”

He snickers. “Wouldn’t need MySpace to figure that out, lass.”

Frowning, you give him a disapproving smirk. “You’re proving my point.”

“Ye really won’t tell me?”

“Nope.”

He huffs disappointedly. “Alright, then, I’ll just have to call ye the bunny I found on the street.”

“Fine by me,” you declare proudly. “What can I call you, then? The playboy?”

With a chuckle, he purses his lips in contemplation. “The playboy to yer bunny, I like that,” he says. “But, pals call me Soap.”

“Soap?” You question incredulously, “seriously?”

“Aye. If I can’t have yer name, y'can’t have mine.”

You snort. “Is it meant to be ironic?”

“Can’t be,” he refutes, quick to detect your insult, “I’m clean as a whistle.”

As you open your mouth to offer back some snippy response, you spot your mailbox, number eighteen, three terraced townhouses down – you had lost track of how long the walk was, your charming stranger having sponged up every last drop of your attention.  

You find yourself disappointed, unjustifiably; you even consider, briefly, not mentioning that you had arrived home just so you can keep walking with him. God, you’re pathetic.

But imagining yourself having to eventually turn around, having to admit that you purposefully missed your stop – you begrudgingly decide to be a good girl and put yourself to bed.

“This is me,” you say flatly, slowing your steps before you come to a stop.

“Ah,” he stops beside you and rocks on the balls of his feet. “Bugger.”

“Yeah,” you sigh, mindlessly slipping your hands into the pockets of his jacket, preceding a reluctant silence. “Well, um... thanks for walking me home. Who knows what danger I could’ve gotten into.”

He waves away your jocose gratitude. “Oh, ‘course,” he says, “had to make sure ye didn’t get tricked into a chase by some strange gadgie.”

You snicker. “Oh, yeah. That would be terrifying.”

Crossing his arms, her gives you a wide but wistful grin. “Alright. I’ll leave you to it, hen.”

“Okay,” you nod, chewing your lip, you feel something in his pocket – rolling it between your fingers, feels like a wad of paper. Cash? A receipt? You start to wonder what he might have ‘short-changed’ those thugs for. Don’t be nosy. “Oh – your jacket.”

As you slip it off your shoulders, he disputes; “don’t wanna keep it as a memento?”

You chuckle, frowning, shaking your head in bemusement. Memento? What a peculiar bloke. “No. It sorta smells.”

“Bollocks,” he retorts, reaching to take the jacket from you – a brown leather bomber, now that you can see it properly. “I smell divine.”

God, he does. Like patchouli and sweat and leather; some sort of earthy masculine concoction, the kind of scent that’s probably entirely accidental – underpinned, you note, by something strangely chemical, like he had just taken a walk through a hospital. Still, so delightfully distinct from the stench of Axe body spray that the boys at your university gassed themselves with daily.

You pass him the bomber, shivering once your scantily clad body is once again exposed to the chilly air of the night. He’s quite shameless, this stranger, eyes almost bulging as they comb brazenly over you – legs, hips, tits – finally getting a good look at you, he takes his time.

“Eyes up here, playboy,” you chide.

He smirks, piercing gaze jumping to yours while his head remains tilted down; you’re almost intimidated the intensity of his eye contact from under his brow. “Aye. They’re just as pretty.”

“Alright, alright,” you giggle, face glowing hot. “I’d better turn in.”

“Yes, you’d better.”

Before you bring yourself to turn around, his hand reaches toward you, plucking the bunny-eared headband from the top of your head.

“Oi!” You bark, smoothing your disturbed hair; watching in confusion as he meticulously sits them on his head, flicking one of the fuzzy white ears with a pleased grin stretched in his lips.

“I want a memento,” he explains boldly. “Never know when I'm dreamin’ these days.”

You stare at him in bewilderment, amused and oddly endeared. He slips on his jacket, stuffing his hands into his pockets and shrugging it over his shoulders.

“Fine, all yours,” you capitulate, smiling meekly, once again letting a pregnant silence linger while you resist a goodbye. “Um. Alright. Goodnight. Soap.”

He nods. “G’night, wee bunny.”

You nod, too, finally turning on your bare feet and walking up the stairs of your flat’s brick stoop. Fumbling around in your handbag, you pluck out your keys – jingling loudly with all of your various keychains as you unlock the painted white door.

You hear his footsteps as he strolls away, slowly, growing duller as the distance grows. You find yourself frozen in the open doorway, staring into the dark abyss of your foyer, facing solitude. Bouncing in dispute with yourself, you exert all strength to bite your tongue. Don’t be stupid, don’t be stupid, don’t be stupid.

He starts to whistle, some obscure tune from just down the street, as if he is purposefully reminding you he’s still in earshot – a smug little prompt.

Fuck it.

Spinning around to face the road, you lean out of the door, and call out; “Hey!”

As though he had expected it, he stops in his tracks, twirling on his heel to face you with his hands still in his pockets. Had lit himself a cigarette already, in the thirty seconds since you had bid him farewell.

“Hm? Want the ears back after all?”

“Um–” You scramble to come up with an excuse. “Those guys won’t be looking for you, will they?”

He grins. “Oh, they could well be.”

“What’ll they do if they find you?”

“Who knows,” he huffs. “Probably kill me. Might gimme one o’ those Glasgow smiles.”

“That would be pretty terrible,” you remark solemnly.

“Aye. It sure would.”

You chew the inside of your cheek, battling with your drunken little demon. “Maybe you should hide out here for the night.” You daft bitch.

“Hm,” he ponders aloud, sauntering slowly back towards your stairs, squinting in thought. “Sounds like a bad idea.”

“How come?” You challenge, tapping the inside of the doorframe with shy fingers.

He creeps up your short footpath. “Never know what might happen.”

Your lips curl into an impish smirk. “That’s the best part.”

He laughs, plucking the cigarette from his teeth, holding it between his thumb and forefinger. “How drunk are ye. On a scale one-through-ten.”

“Um,” you muse, biting your lip. “I’m not that drunk.”

“Well, hen, you must be steamed. ‘Cos that’s not a number.”

You snicker, then groan impatiently. “Four.”

“Only four, eh?” He asks dubiously, standing at the base of your stairs, he gazes up at you devilishly. “You gonna remember in the mornin’ that you asked me to come in?”

“’Course,” you say. “I want you to come inside.”

He sneers. Filthy boy. “Don’t wanna get in trouble,” he refutes.

“I want you to come in,” you insist, correcting your wording just slightly.

He hums, feigning deep thought, as if he hasn’t been hoping you’d ask. “Alright,” he surrenders. “Why not.”

You do your best to conceal your glee, nodding, grinning, you turn to step inside and you hear him follow you.

“Ye live alone?” He asks, as he looks around the empty hallway, shrouded in darkness.

Shutting the door behind you and locking it, you tut at him. “Still shouldn’t ask that.”  

“You’ve already invited me in,” he jeers, “if you’re worried I’ll hurt ye, you’ve made it well easy for me.”

“I s’pose so,” you admit, smiling sheepishly as you go to switch on the light hanging in the centre of the foyer. Christ, it’s a tip – you and Katie are equally dishevelled, leaving shoes and lip gloss and hair ties and clothes in your wake wherever you venture. “Can’t be too careful,” you add – very aware of how uncareful you are being.

“Do I scare ye?” He asks coyly, taking a raffish drag of his cigarette.

“I dunno,” you answer frankly, leaning bashfully against your front door with your hands tucked behind you. “Should I be scared of you?”

“Mm,” he shrugs, “probably.”

You purse your lips and nod. “Stranger danger,” you remind yourself.

“I reckon you’re a lot more dangerous than me,” he grins.

You frown. “Why’s that?”

He puts his cigarette between his lips, holding it with a pinch, taking a puff as he eyes you scrupulously. “Look at you.”

You suck your bottom lip between your teeth. Fucking hell.

“I have a flatmate,” you finally answer his initial question, and change the subject. “But she’s not home tonight.”

“Good,” he says, milky smoke spilling from his smile.

“Um,” you make noises to fill your flustered silence. “Want to go upstairs?”

He cocks his eyebrows. “Lead the way.”

Pushing yourself from the door, you slip past him and trot up the staircase that sits flush with the panelled wall. The old oak creaks and moans under the weight of his heavy steps, he follows you steadily.

Rushing to get to your room before he can see it, you scuttle across to your bedroom door from the landing, hoping he ignores the kaleidoscope of peeling stickers you’ve tacked above the handle. You shove it open, quickly kicking aside a pair of twisted up panties you had left on your red shag rug.

In a blink he’s behind you, standing in the doorframe, a terrifyingly tall and bulky silhouette against the dim glow emerging from downstairs – made uniquely funny by the rabbit ears sticking up from his head.

You step over the piles of discarded outfit options and switch on the lamp by your bed; the yellow bulb glows coral pink from behind the vintage fabric lampshade. Looking back at him, he’s already perusing your room like it’s a museum.

He picks up and analyses the assortment of trinkets on your shelves and chest-of-drawers (old jewellery, empty lighters, some strange ceramic babies you once picked up at a flea market), and admires the mosaic of posters on your wall (Gorillaz, Feist, The Killers, MGMT,  Arcade Fire, The Strokes, Peter Bjorn and John – careful cherry-picks of your favourite bands, in the hopes you’d one day impress some hot guy with taste as good as yours).

“Bit of an artiste, are ye?” He queries, nodding at the easel against your wall – housing a half-finished and long-hated painting of yours, an attempt at a masterwork copy of Monet; sitting amongst a bombsite of palettes, brushes in dirty cups, and curled-up tubes of oil paint.

“Guess so,” you answer. “It’s my degree.”

He leans into your hideous painting, taking a drag but careful not to stain the canvas with the smoke. “Still studying, then?”

“Yeah, uh, my Master’s.”

He nods. “If you’re already this good, what does a Master’s in painting get ye?”

You snort. “Good fuckin’ question.”

Feeling suddenly shy, you venture to busy yourself, electing to pull the curtains shut over your window.

You hear him chuckle while you aren’t looking. “What’s this?”

“What’s what?”

You spin on the ball of your foot, and freeze instantly – stare caught on your grape-coloured vibrator, held comfortably in the palm of his hand, he tosses it and catches it again. You had left it on your bed, a rookie mistake. You fucking idiot!

Your hand shoots to cover your mouth, fire burns white-hot behind your cheeks; but you can only giggle, humiliated. “Put that down,” you plead into your palm.

Ignoring you, he inspects it, quickly finding the button to turn it on; its buzzing rings out obnoxiously loud into the cripplingly awkward silence, forcing you to grimace. He doesn’t seem to find it awkward at all, holding the end of the purple rod into his other hand, curling his lips in disapproval as he evidently evaluates the vibration against his skin.

“Never understood why you girls like these things,” he remarks insouciantly.

“Please put it down,” you cry, staring at the ceiling as if it might hide you from the embarrassment.

He only sniggers. “Cannae compare to the real thing.”

You cover your eyes. “It fills the void,” you quietly admit.

He finally switches it off, but continues to fiddle with it as he ambles towards you. “Mustn’t do a very good job o’ that.”

Uncovering your face, finally, you jolt when you see how close he is to you – only a foot between you, you can feel the heat of him from where you stand. You do your utter best to prevent your eyes from jumping to the vibrator in his grip, but he still toys with it, as if just to taunt you.

“What makes you say that?”

He gazes down at you, lips stretched into a smug grin. “Why’d you invite me in, eh?”

You swallow, stifling a giggle – you look around capriciously, anywhere but his drilling stare. “Just wanted to help you out.”

“Help me out?” He interrogates you, inching forward, forcing you to step onto your back foot.

You’re suddenly short of breath. “I didn’t want you to get stabbed.”

He gleams that cheshire smile, suddenly his canines seem sharper. “You’re a bad liar, wee bunny.”

“Am I?” You utter, shambling back further has he continues to encroach.

“Took me to yer bedroom straight away… didn’t even offer me a drink…” he teases, “I’m thinkin’ ye want me to help you out.”

You feel a sudden bump as your back hits the door of your cupboard, shrinking as he leans over you, closing the gap. Your eyes catch on his lips as he again places his cigarette in between them, its smoke drifting softly over your face, your stare lingers.

“Dunno where you got that idea,” you breathe, entranced by the cloud that’s left in his mouth once he tugs the roll out again.

Don’t be stupid. Don’t be stupid. Don’t be stupid.

Ignoring any remaining shred of common sense, you step up on your tiptoes to slam your lips against his, sucking down the smoke lingering behind his teeth deep into your chest. He matches you with no hint of hesitation, leaning into you with the full weight of his body, you hear him finally drop the vibrator as it lands on the carpet with a dull thud.

Fuck, his tongue tastes good – like tobacco and peppermint chewing gum, soft and hungry as it writhes against yours. He does what he can with his one free hand, starting tastefully with a cup of your cheek, then a hold of the side of your neck, down to your shoulder – before plunging into a greedy handful of your breast, kneading it like dough.

His wet and eager lips drag along from yours, taking soft bites out of your cheek, hot tongue licking from your jaw to your neck, where he burrows his teeth. You let out a breathy whimper, fervid fingers clutch and claw at his chest through his t-shirt, using the fabric to pull him closer. His busy hand ventures along your waist, taking a palmful of your hip and tugging it only slightly towards him.

Impatient, ravenous, your fingers slither down his firm stomach to the waistband of his jeans, fumbling to get his button undone; you feel him smile against your skin, a breathy chuckle, before his other hand moves to stop you with a hold of your wrist.

He releases your neck from his maw, standing upright with a fucking cocky and self-satisfied grin plastered on his face. You let go of his button and return your hands to your sides, worried you’d been too eager, put him off with your fervour.

“Glad to know it’s this easy to get ye hot n’ bothered,” he drawls, taking another drag of what is now nearly just the butt.

“No idea what you mean,” you pant, utterly breathless, you sweep some stray hair from your forehead with your palm.  “I’m not hot and bothered.”

“Aren’t you?” He goads, and the hand that clutches your hip sneaks towards your centre, prompting you to hold your breath; he snakes it over your mound, gliding it brazenly between your closed legs.

His shrewd eyes watch you, arrogantly, as he palms your aching pussy through the thin fabric of your bodysuit – under which you wore no panties, you wonder if he can feel how damp it is. He pushes a coaxing pressure against your covered clit with the heel of his palm, forcing you to whine in desperation; your insatiable hands return to his chest, balling the fabric of his t-shirt into your fists – and he only chortles.

“I could fry an egg on that,” he says.

And suddenly you snort, breaking into cackling laughter as you shove him away with both hands. “God, you’re disgusting!”

He laughs with you, proud of himself, he finally takes off the fucking bunny ears.

“I could hang a towel on that,” you jab, eyes suddenly caught on the frightening tent pitched in his roomy trousers. That can’t be real.

“You could hang a lot on it,” he agrees rakishly, chuckling, palming the length under his pants to tuck it away.

You try to contain your giggles as you push yourself upright, attempting to un-fluster yourself by smoothing your hair and wiping the dampness of his saliva from your neck. You feel the slippery wetness of your cunt with a step. “You’re evil,” you spit, still throbbing from his attention.

“Cannae fuck you yet,” he declares bluntly, turning to dump the end of his cigarette into your paintbrush cup full of brown water.

“Why not?” You pout, whingeing like a spoilt brat.

He returns with a debonair grin. “Gotta give you a reason to see me again.”

Work related

So I keep mentioning that I'd like management to set it up so that everything at the gas station that has an UPC scans into the register, and that's not just to reduce cashier error, though that is a big reason.

It is also about inventory management, tracking, and ordering.

Every retail place I've worked so far before this gas station, and my expectation of how the gas station would be run, was set up where everything scanned, scanned items were tracked by the database, and both inventory checks and ordering were streamlined by said database. If I needed to know how many of a certain watch we were supposed to have in stock at the Walmart jewelry counter I could scan one with the little pricing gun thing and see not only a count but where it was stored.

The gas station isn't set up that way.

For some things that are bought frequently but don't have UPCs, like fountain drinks (there is a button for each size of cup or any size cup of ice is $0.50), self-serve coffee, and bagged ice, there are buttons you can hit to automatically both record what was sold (though not specifically, like not which flavor of drink, which kind of coffee, or how many pumps of syrup, etc.) and automatically add the price to the tally.

For beer, chips, sodas, juice, and energy drinks they also scan, though there are deals for energy drinks that have their own buttons. Individually scanned items are tracked, but if you hit the "2 Energy Drink Deal" button, the system puts a price but doesn't know the exact items that sold. Same goes for 2 Red Bull 8oz and 2 Red Bull 12oz. The register knows how much that should be and marks that 2 of that size of Red Bull were bought, but not which flavors. We often run out of some flavors and have an excess of others.

Cigarettes scan, but only branded packs of cigarettes, snuff, chew, and pouches, not bagged loose tobacco or wrapping papers. Cigars, CBD/THC, and Vapes all have a button. You hit the appropriate button, hand-key the price, and that's it. No scanning other than two specific brands of vape, so there's no actual sales tracking in that regard. Except they ALL say "cigarettes" on the receipt.

For everything not mentioned, yet, there are other buttons.

The main buttons are Grocery 1 (items that do not have sales tax) and Grocery 2 (items that do have sales tax, which includes the deli/in-store made sandwiches). If any item that's supposed to scan doesn't, I have to look it up on a printout of an outdated spreadsheet and hand key the price into the correct category. For anything that isn't set up to scan, I have to either find a price sticker on it somewhere or look it up and put it into the correct category just by remembering what goes in which category. The spreadsheet doesn't say.

Ice creams have buttons but sometimes the ice creams look like candy bars, so I'll accidentally ring them up as King Size Candy instead of ice cream. Many ice creams use the same button, like multiple items that aren't Eclair Bar fall under "eclair bar", but the ice cream candy bars are all "candy bar" so there's no tracking which. exactly, are selling.

There's a button for King Size Candy, and one for Regular Candy. I have to know which are which. There are also other candies that don't use those buttons nor do they scan and I might not realize if I don't see the price sticker. I have to hit Grocery 1 and input their price manually. Which specific candies are selling are not tracked via the POS system.

Wine also doesn't get tracked, there's a Wine button.

Things stored in the freezer (frozen meat patties, extra ice cream) are not tracked. We take them out until they're getting low and tell the manager more is needed. There's no indicator for the fact that, for example, there's a whole box of chicken patties in the ice cream case because there wasn't room in the freezer. We just have to hope someone mentions that to us so we know to go look, there.

There are also ice creams in the not-ice-cream freezer which should be in the ice cream case.

As far as I know no one but me knows there is another box of chicken patties in the correct freezer, they're just at the bottom. That is always compeltey frosted over to the point that the frost takes up precious storage space and needs replaced with a stand-up freezer so that products can be spaced out enough to be seen and not have to go digging everything out to get to something at the bottom then tetris it all back in again.

It's a mess and it stresses me the fuck out.

To decide what to order, Manager goes around and writes down things that are low on a piece of paper, but she doesn't check expiration dates so doesn't know to pull things that need pulled and either reordered or not reordered because they didn't sell.

Deli sandwiches are just Grocery 2 499 with no indicator of what, exactly, was sold. Was that a turkey and swiss? A cheeseburger? Pulled chicken? Who knows?! How much of those ingredients is stored? No idea!

She misses things, underorders things, overorders things... There are TOO MANY little bread rolls taking up a huge section where bread is supposed to be in the drinks cooler because that's the only fridge in the store, they will go bad before they get used, and there are not nearly enough burger buns (I am on the last pack and it's Tuesday, more will arrive Friday), there are 5 rows of a specific brand of green tea when there should be one row of that brand of green tea and the other rows should be other flavors but she ordered too much green and not enough of the other flavors. There are no more small bottles of milk because they keep running out and she doesn't order enough.

At the same time, often vendors decide what we will order and that's just fucking chaos. Due to the way the cooler is stocked, for example, often vendors will not see their product is full because it's not where it's expected to be, because it was put there to fill a hole left by another product, and then will order, say, more Green Tea thinking "Wow they went through that fast, they must need more" when it's just here and there.

So yeah, I really, realllllyyy wish she'd make everything scan. It would take maybe two to three days of staying focused on that task and not having to hop on the register to get it done, which isn't much.

-

I can understand her not wanting to do it. She's always busy (partly because of bad inventory management and lack of storage so she has to deal with vendors all the time) and it IS a daunting, tedious task that is never ending because new stuff comes in all the time and would have to be added to the database, but that's much easier to do bit by bit once the bulk of the information has been established.

Just like when I was trying to establish the naming convention for my pony work photos. Now that I have it figured out, keeping it going is very easy.

It's Not Only a Fire Certificate—It's Peace of Mind for All Singapore Offices

In the heart of every business district, behind the hum of computers and the rhythm of daily meetings, there’s something quietly protecting everything we’ve built — the fire certificate Singapore mandates for all commercial properties. It’s not just a piece of paper pinned on the wall. It’s proof that your office is safe, compliant, and prepared for the unexpected.

For HR directors, heads of HR, and business leaders throughout Singapore, this compact powerhouse certificate is about so much more than box-checking. It's the backbone of an organization's fire safety plan, the silent guarantee that those within are safe.

Let's dive a little bit deeper about what the fire certificate Singapore is, why it's more important than people know, and how trusted partners like Drako Fire make offices island-wide secure.

What Is the Fire Certificate in Singapore?

A fire certificate Singapore is a compulsory certificate granted by the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) under the Fire Safety Act. It ensures fire safety equipment in a building — alarms, sprinklers, fire extinguishers, emergency lighting, and means of escape — has been installed, maintained, and tested to safety standards.

Generally, public buildings under SCDF laws have to acquire and renew their fire certificate Singapore annually. They can be offices, schools, hospitals, shopping malls, and so forth.

Why Every Office Needs It —- Beyond Compliance

You can see the fire certificate Singapore as nothing more than a box to tick on your checklist of compliance. But in fact, it's a business-critical step.

Here's why:

It saves lives: The certificate ensures that your workplace is outfitted with operational fire prevention systems that can help save lives in the event of an emergency.

It safeguards property: Fires have the capacity to burn or destroy years of business progress into ashes. A legitimate certificate guarantees fire systems to reduce damage.

It safeguards your firm reputation: Failure to comply with fire safety may draw huge penalties, closure, or worse — loss of customer and employee trust.

It provides employees peace of mind: Your employees work better knowing their security is paramount.

At the end of the day, the fire certificate Singapore is all about being responsible. It's the difference between the response to crisis and being ready for one.

The Renewal Process: Simple but Mandatory

A fire certificate in Singapore has a validity period of one year and needs to be done yearly. The process consists of:

Appointing an effective fire safety manager (FSM)

Checking all the fire safety systems and fixing defects

Rendering the inspection report and application to SCDF

Waiting for approval and re-issue of the certificate

While the processes are identical, the actual work can be slow and technical — particularly if your systems are old or in a state of disrepair.

That's where expert help comes in.

How Drako Fire Makes Offices Secure and Compliant

Organizations such as specialize in commercial building fire safety management. They do not assist you to tick boxes — they become your safety partners.

With years of experience in Singapore's strict fire safety regime, provides:

Expert FSM services to manage inspections and compliance

Full fire safety system testing and maintenance

Professional guidance through the fire certificate renewal process

Staff emergency response planning and training for staff

By engaging experts who understand the subtleties of the fire certificate Singapore process, you're not merely staying out of trouble — you're creating a better, safer workplace.

Real Offices, Real Stories

Think about this: A medium-sized marketing business in the CBD almost missed their fire certificate Singapore renewal deadline. Their slow-moving office manager, who had HR and facilities on his to-do list, had forgotten the deadline. Luckily, they had a fire safety partner who took up the phone and reminded them, did a speedy check, and sent the renewal in good time.

That certificate, by the way? That wasn't a regulatory requirement. That was what kept 80 employees safe — and the business operational.

Those behind-the-scenes acts of duty tend to go unnoticed — until something goes wrong. And when it does, it's the planning, the compliance, and yes, the certificate, that salvage us.

Conclusion: A Small Certificate, A Big Responsibility

In the frantic pace of Singapore business, it's easy to forget that safety certificates are important. But the Singapore fire certificate is not merely a method for evading fines and passing inspection. It's a feeling of security — the assurance that your office, your employees, and your future are secure.

If you’re unsure about your next renewal or want to assess your current fire safety systems, don’t wait. Reach out to professionals like Drako Fire, and take that one quiet step toward a safer tomorrow.

Jaxson Rivers adjusted the camera, tilting it this way and that way until he and his two other co-host, Micheal and Taylor, where perfectly in frame. After hitting the red record button, a soft beep sounded as Jaxson took a seat between his best friends. Then, picking up his mic, he took a deep breath and looked straight into the camera.  

“Well hello anarchist! I’m one of your handsome hosts, Jaxson Rivers.” Said Jaxson as he gripped his mic with both hands. 

“And I’m your even better-looking host, Taylor Hunt, this handsome Hunk’s husband.” Taylor said, as he elbowed Micheal.   

“And I am Micheal Hunt, arguably the best-looking host on this show. And you’re listening to, Bunkers and Bongs, your favorite informative, yet bat shit crazy news podcast. Apple Jax, how’s the war?” Micheal said, turning to his co-host. 

Jaxson opened his mouth to respond when a loud bang went off, causing their drinking glasses, and the plywood serving as their table, to rattle. 

“Well, it’s still going on, that’s for sure.” Jaxson said, looking directly into the camera. 

Hosting a podcast in the middle of a war zone was indeed as bat shit crazy as it sounded. But Bunkers and Bongs hadn't always been so hectic. There was a time when Bunkers and Bongs was known as ‘The Insomniac Podcast’. Back then, Jaxson, Micheal, and Taylor’s lives were quite normal. Before the war, Jaxson, Micheal, and Taylor recorded their podcast in a proper studio; they had employees and they made money through brand deals, merch sales, and donations from their listeners.  

Back then, before the civil war began, The Insomniacs, as they called themselves, had Roth IRAs and other investments, they had partners and an office which they ran their operations out of, and they had their whole lives mapped out. 

But then the war started and much like the small town they lived in, all The Bunker Boys’s lives went up in flames.  

.... 

Before the war, The Bunker Boys were known as The Tree Boys, and their podcast, Bongs N Things, was all about THC, CBD, and LGBT news. 

But now, that was no longer the case, six and a half years ago, The Bunker Boys, and everyone around them, chose to write off all those who tried to warn them. 

It was 2024 when it all began, anti-LGBTQ legislation was being written and in acted like movies hitting the box office. Every week there was a new law being enacted, and The Hall Monitors, a group of older gay men who had a love of law, started a blog, detailing all that was happening in every state. The Hall Monitors had friends in high places who would inform them of what was happening on the federal level, and The Hall Monitors tried to spread the news; but with very little knowledge about how to work their devices, and even less about how social media worked, The Hall Monitors' message failed to reached a wide enough audience. The Monitors tried to use the popular publications to get the news in the paper, but no one was really reading the paper anymore, at least not the local ones that The Monitors had access to. 

Eventually, when people finally did realize what was going on, their neighborhoods where already filled with men dressed in cameo uniforms, and the entire country was now under total government control.  

For some, the uniformed men weren’t a problem; that is until they widened their scope of targets, going from targeting just LGBT folks, to then targeting people with disabilities, people who held jobs that the government deemed as ‘unimportant’, or just anyone the government saw as a threat. And of course, all the ‘die hard citizens’, the bigots, and all those who opposed any and everyone who decided to go against the grain, they joined the government, and soon, the entire country was divided into two halves, and all hell broke loose. 

But a civil war? The country of Deston, where The Insomniacs used to live, could handle a simple civil war; hell, their country started with a civil war! But this war was far greater than any civil war the world had ever seen before. Both halves of this war didn’t just have bombs, guns, and tanks, they also had concoctions that could raise the dead and powders that if inhaled, would allow the makers of that powder to fully control whoever had ingested it. 

All the while, while the citizens of Deston were busy killing one another, The Insomniacs were simply trying to get as far away from the chaos as possible. But when the lock down came, Jaxson, Micheal, and Taylor got trapped in Deston, and they figured they were going to die there. So, the trio found a bunker, and they hid out. For days, they just sat in the bunker and did their best not to get involved in the fight. 

Friends of the boys, who had been forced into the fight, would come by the bunker to check on the trio; they brought snacks and updates about what was happening, and luckily for the boys, prior to starting the podcast, Taylor and Micheal worked as nurses, so they were able to patch up the soldiers in exchange for protection. 

Eventually, Micheal somehow managed to find their old studio amongst the rubble, and through a sheer act of God, all their recording equipment was able to be salvaged, and after convincing the general, of the small army they’d been staying with, to allow them to use the army’s internet, The Insomniac Boys where back online, this time as Bongs and Bunkers. 

“Boy, I really wish we would have paid a little more attention to the sales of military grade weapons to your average, everyday citizen.” Taylor said as he stared directly into the camera. 

Micheal shook his head. 

“Hindsight is 20/20 my guy. Wishing to change the past isn’t gonna do shit for us now.” Micheal said.  

Jaxson chuckled, now it was his turn to shake his head. 

“Ahh, ever the Optimus, I’ve always loved that about ya kid.” Jaxson said as he slapped a hand on Micheal’s leg. 

Between the three of them, the men where a tornado of fear, hopelessness, and a delusional level of optimism. The Bunker Boys where like a perfect scale, each man talking turns embodying the only three emotions they had; fear, numbness, and a delusional level of optimism. The men never had a conversation about which of them would embody which emotion; they just naturally gravitated towards one of the three every day. Call it fate, God, or something else, but no two men ever gravitated towards the same state of being, so they always remained in perfect harmony. They would simply wake up, assume their roles, and go about their day. 

“Do you think this war will....” Jaxson’s statement was cut short by a loud thud against the bunker door. 

“Sidney?” The men all said in unison as they looked at one another. 

Sidney was the trio's self-assigned assistant. Since the Bunker Boys where the only ones with internet access, they recorded the podcast on tapes, and Sidney would deliver the tapes to the folks on the front line. At first, the boys tried to discourage Sydney from doing such a dangerous job, but when she explained that this podcast was all that the soldiers had to look forward to, The Bunker Boys realized they couldn’t say no. Of course, Sydney wasn’t out there all alone, she was armed, and traveled with the soldiers, but that didn’t stop the boys didn’t worrying about her.  

“Sorry I’m late, we got roped into a fucking prayer circle, and we all know how long those things can last.” She said with a huff. 

Plopping down onto one of the buckets the guys used for chairs, Sydney huffed as she leaned against Jaxson. 

“People are really digging the pod by the way. This civil war has got everyone fiending for these tapes.” She said, holding up her sac full of food.  

The guys weren’t too thrilled about Sydney crossing a literal war zone, just to give out copies of their podcast tapes, but she loved the thrill. But more than just for the thrill, Sydney truly believed that The Insomniac Podcast was more than just ‘a silly little podcast.’ The Insomniac Podcast was so many people’s sunshine in the middle of a fucking storm, and though they couldn’t stop the war, they were keeping the people informed and entertained. And for Sydney, that was worth risking her life.  

And so, opening up the sac, she cracked open a soda someone had traded, slipped another tape into the recorder, and sat back and watched as her friends did their thing.

How Can I Save Money on Moving Boxes?

By Melbourne CBD Removals

Moving to a new home or office can be exciting—but let's face it, the costs add up fast. One of the sneaky expenses that often catches people off guard is moving boxes. You need them in bulk, and buying brand-new boxes from retail stores or storage suppliers can take a big bite out of your budget.

At Melbourne CBD Removals, we believe moving doesn’t have to be expensive or stressful. That’s why we’ve put together this guide to help you save money on one of the most essential moving supplies—boxes!

1. Ask Your Removalist for Free or Discounted Boxes

Let’s start with the most straightforward solution. Many professional moving companies, including Melbourne CBD Removals, offer complimentary or discounted moving boxes to clients. If you're booking a full-service move with us, ask about:

Free moving boxes with select packages

Eco-box rental options

Recycled box programs

Using boxes supplied by your mover ensures they’re durable and purpose-built, unlike those found in random stores.

2. Find Free Boxes in Your Local Community

You’d be surprised how many quality boxes are just waiting to be picked up—for free! Here are a few places to check:

Facebook Marketplace & Buy Nothing Groups: People frequently give away boxes after they’ve finished their own moves.

Gumtree: Search for "free moving boxes" in your area.

Bunnings, Liquor Stores & Bookshops: These businesses often discard sturdy boxes. Call ahead or pop in and ask.

Office Supply or Print Shops: Printer paper boxes are strong and usually have lids—perfect for moving.

Pro Tip from Melbourne CBD Removals: Avoid boxes with moisture damage, strong smells, or tears—they won’t survive a big move.

3. Use What You Already Have

Saving money often starts at home. Look around and repurpose containers you already own:

Suitcases & travel bags – Especially the wheeled kind.

Plastic storage bins

Laundry baskets

Drawers (just secure them with plastic wrap)

Not only will you save money, but you’ll also reduce the number of boxes you need altogether.

4. Rent Instead of Buy

If you don’t want to buy boxes at all, consider renting them. At Melbourne CBD Removals, we offer eco-friendly plastic moving boxes that are:

Durable and reusable

Stackable and easy to carry

Delivered and picked up from your location

Renting boxes can often be cheaper than buying cardboard—and you’re doing the environment a favor too!

5. Buy in Bulk or Second-Hand

If renting isn't an option, and you must purchase boxes, make sure to buy in bulk. Many websites and packaging suppliers offer bundle discounts.

Also, check out second-hand stores like:

Facebook Marketplace

eBay

Local garage sales

Just make sure the boxes are in good condition and suitable for your moving needs.

6. Skip Specialty Boxes When You Can

While it might be tempting to buy those custom boxes for TVs, mirrors, or wardrobes, you can often DIY protective packing for a fraction of the cost.

Use:

Blankets and towels for padding

Pool noodles for edge protection

Cling wrap to keep drawers secure

Only invest in specialty boxes if necessary—or ask Melbourne CBD Removals if we can bring custom packing materials for fragile items.

Final Thoughts

Moving doesn’t have to break the bank. With a little creativity and help from the right team, you can slash your costs—starting with the humble moving box.

At Melbourne CBD Removals, we’ve helped thousands of Melbourne locals move smart and save money. Whether you need full-service packing or just some friendly advice, we’re always here to help.

Read These Tips Before Buying Custom Cannabis Packaging

Custom cannabis packaging isn’t just a box; it's the handshake, the first impression, the storyteller of your brand. In an industry that's blooming faster than a well-watered plant, standing out is crucial.

So, before you dive headfirst into the world of custom marijuana packaging, here’s a unique guide to ensure your brand doesn’t just float but soars.

1. Get Cozy with the Legal Lingo

Let’s kick things off with the not-so-glamorous but oh-so-essential: legality. Regulations are the strict hall monitors of the cannabis world, and breaking the rules can land you in the principal’s office (read: fines or business shutdown). Here’s the cheat sheet:

Child-Proof It: Think of this as a challenge to create Fort Knox in a box. Your packaging should keep the curious little hands out while being user-friendly for adults.

Label Like a Pro: Channel your inner detail-oriented self. Every bit of info—from THC/CBD content to usage instructions and warnings—needs to be crystal clear.

Seal the Deal: Tamper-evident seals are your best friends. They shout, “I’ve never been touched!” and give customers peace of mind.

Keep It Under Wraps: Some places demand opaque packaging to keep things discreet and safe from prying eyes.

2. Branding: The Heartbeat of Your Packaging

Your weed packaging isn’t just a container; it’s a canvas. It’s your brand’s wardrobe, the attire that tells everyone who you are before they even say hello. Here’s how to make it unforgettable:

Design Dreams: Whether you’re channeling sleek modern vibes or earthy, rustic feels, make sure your design is a true reflection of your brand’s soul.

Logo Love: Make your logo the star of the show. It should be front and center, a beacon of your brand.

Show Off Your USP: What’s your secret sauce? Organic farming? Unique strains? Whatever it is, let your packaging narrate that story beautifully.

3. Green is the New Black: Sustainability

In the age of eco-consciousness, going green isn’t just a trend; it’s a responsibility. Here’s how to ensure your custom marijuana packaging is as kind to the earth as it is to your product:

Eco Materials: Recycled paper, biodegradable plastics, glass—choose materials that say, “I care about the planet.”

Less is More: Cut the fluff. Minimalist packaging isn’t just chic; it’s cost-effective and eco-friendly.

Reusable Awesomeness: Design with a second life in mind. Reusable packaging not only reduces waste but also adds extra value for your customers.

4. Function Meets Fashion: Practicality Matters

Sure, looks are important, but your THC packaging also needs to protect and serve. Here’s how to ensure it does just that:

Barrier Basics: Keep the good stuff in and the bad stuff out. Your packaging should shield your product from light, oxygen, and moisture.

Durability: Make sure it’s tough enough to handle rough rides and eager hands without a scratch.

User-Friendly: Convenience is key. Easy to open, easy to reseal—your packaging should be a joy to use.

5. Mind the Wallet: Cost-Effectiveness

Custom cannabis packaging is an investment, but it doesn’t have to break the bank. Here’s how to balance quality and cost:

Bulk Up: Ordering in bulk can save you bucks. Just make sure you’ve got the space and a plan to use it all.

Smart Material Choices: Opt for materials that strike the right balance between cost and eco-friendliness.

Buddy Up with Suppliers: Good relationships can lead to better deals, quicker turnarounds, and higher quality.

6. Flex Your Creativity: Customization and Flexibility

Customization isn’t just about slapping on a logo; it’s about creating a versatile, adaptive weed packaging system. Here’s how to make it work:

Modular Masterpieces: Design a base package that can easily be tweaked for different products or seasons.

Limited Editions: Special packaging for holidays or events can create a sense of urgency and exclusivity.

Personal Touches: Explore options for personalized packaging. Names, custom messages—these little touches can build big loyalty.

7. Stay Ahead: Market Trends

The cannabis market moves fast. Keeping an eye on trends can give you a leg up. Here’s what’s hot:

Digital Dazzle: QR codes and augmented reality can turn your packaging into an interactive experience.

Health and Wellness: Highlight the wellness benefits of your product to tap into the growing health-conscious market.

How to Design Custom Dispensary Packaging: A Journey Beyond the Box

Designing custom dispensary packaging isn't just about creating a container for your cannabis products—it's about crafting an unforgettable experience that resonates with your customers, aligns with your brand, and adheres to all the necessary regulations. In a world where cannabis is blooming faster than a well-watered plant, standout packaging can set your dispensary apart from the rest. Buckle up, because this guide is going to take you on a journey through the essential steps and considerations for designing custom dispensary packaging that does more than just hold your product.

1. Embrace Your Brand Identity

Before you dive into the world of design, take a moment to reflect on your brand identity. Your packaging should be a mirror that reflects your brand’s soul, values, and mission. Here’s how to bring your brand to life through your packaging:

Tell Your Story: What’s the narrative behind your dispensary? Whether it’s wellness, luxury, sustainability, or another unique angle, your packaging should be the storyteller.

Know Your Audience: Who are your customers? Health-conscious consumers, luxury seekers, or value hunters? Tailoring your packaging to their preferences will make your brand irresistible.

Visual Symphony: Think about the colors, fonts, and imagery that represent your brand. These elements should dance in harmony across all your packaging to create a unified brand experience.

2. Master the Art of Compliance

In the cannabis world, packaging regulations are the rulebook you can’t ignore. Stay updated on the legal requirements in your area to avoid any compliance hiccups. Here’s the cheat sheet:

Child-Proof Armor: Your packaging should be a fortress that’s tough for kids to crack but easy for adults to use.

Label Like a Maestro: Your packaging should sing with all the required information—THC/CBD content, usage instructions, health warnings, and batch numbers.

Tamper-Evident Magic: Incorporate seals or other features that scream, “I’m untouched!” This assures your customers of the product’s integrity.

Opaque Elegance: In some regions, your packaging needs to be opaque to keep the contents hidden and secure.

Durable Armor: Ensure your packaging can handle the bumps and bruises of shipping and handling without a scratch.

Convenient Magic: Design packaging that’s a breeze to open and reseal, making it user-friendly and practical.

5. Design Elements: The Visual Feast

Your packaging should be a visual feast that’s striking and memorable. Here’s how to create that impact:

Logo Love: Your logo should be the hero of your packaging. Use consistent branding elements like colors and fonts to create a cohesive look.

Graphic Masterpieces: Use high-quality images and graphics that resonate with your brand and captivate your customers. Keep it clean and professional.

Typography Harmony: Choose readable fonts that match your brand’s style. Make sure important information is clear and easy to read.

6. Customization and Personalization: The Unique Touch

Customization allows your packaging to stand out and cater to different product lines and customer preferences. Here’s how to infuse that unique touch:

Modular Magic: Create a base design that can be easily adapted for different products or special editions.

Limited Edition Enchantment: Design special packaging for holidays, events, or limited-time offers to create excitement and urgency.

Personalized Potions: Add personalized elements like customer names or custom messages to build a deeper connection with your customers.

Augmented Reality Adventures: Use AR to create interactive experiences that engage customers and provide a unique selling point.

Smart Packaging Magic: Implement NFC (Near Field Communication) or other smart packaging technologies to offer digital interactions and enhance customer engagement.

8. Prototyping and Testing: The Experimentation Phase

Before you finalize your packaging design, it’s essential to prototype and test it to ensure it meets all your requirements. Here’s how to perfect it:

Create Prototypes: Develop prototypes to evaluate the design, materials, and functionality.

Focus Group Feedback: Conduct focus groups to gather insights on the design and usability of the packaging.

Iterate and Improve: Use feedback to make necessary adjustments and improvements to the packaging design.

9. Production and Quality Control: The Final Frontier

Once the design is set, focus on production and quality control to ensure consistency and high standards. Here’s what to consider:

Choose a Reliable Ally: Partner with a manufacturer who can deliver high-quality packaging within your budget and timeline.

Quality Enforcers: Implement strict quality control measures to ensure each batch of packaging meets your standards.

Scalability Sorcery: Ensure your packaging solution can scale with your business growth without compromising on quality.

10. Marketing and Launch: The Grand Reveal

Your packaging is a crucial part of your marketing strategy. Here’s how to make a grand entrance:

Unboxing Extravaganza: Create an unforgettable unboxing experience that delights customers and encourages social sharing.

Brand Storytelling: Use the packaging to narrate your brand’s story and connect with customers on an emotional level.

Promotional Pizzazz: Launch promotional campaigns to highlight your new packaging and generate buzz.

Designing custom dispensary packaging is a multifaceted adventure that balances creativity, functionality, compliance, and sustainability. By embracing your brand identity, mastering compliance, prioritizing sustainability, ensuring functionality, and leveraging customization, you can create packaging that not only protects your products but also elevates your brand.

Incorporate interactive elements, prototype and test thoroughly, ensure quality production, and use your packaging as a powerful marketing tool. In the bustling cannabis market, your packaging can be the key to standing out and creating lasting impressions.

something that's rly fuckin with my head lately (and all the time, to be honest-) is whether or not I, like, "deserve" my (informal) bipolar dx. partially cause of imposter syndrome in general, liek I'll find one (1) bipolar person with a different experience from me and I'll immediately decide I must be wrong, but also partially cause a very close person to me recently got undiagnosed with it, and they got their bipolar dx from the same human I see for my meds who also gave me my diagnosis. also the first therapist I saw for my issues, once I laid them out, was like "I could give you that diagnosis, but you're not a homeless drug addict. see, the people I usually see have real problems, and you don't." which stung a fair bit, bit I do wonder if he was right. I could very easily be spoiled and whiny. I can see it.

lately I've been thinking every morning of just not taking my meds because I feel "fine" without them, though I know in a lot of cases that's A Bad Idea, I am getting more and more curious. what if I'm actually Not bipolar and need something else? some other manner of help? I've been having trouble with sleeping again lately, with getting tired midday, and while that's not a side effect of my meds to my knowledge (in fact it's usually the opposite) increasing my dose has Not helped.

I'm also the sort of person who's anti-diagnosis as a box you Must fit in, I prefer to see them more like useful terms to articulate an experience. and I did a whole paper on bipolar where i found myself heavily relating to a lot of things (the particular kind of depression symptoms, the way going on Lexapro made me feel like my brain was full of bees, the way hypomania is described) so I've felt somewhat comfortable with saying i have a mild case of it, but now I'm wondering if I'm wrong and therefore intruding on a space I do Not belong in, which would make me feel Very bad.

genuinely contemplating doing a controlled sort of test about the medication when I'm off classes, first one week journaling my experiences while on meds then going off them and journaling how that goes. is it dumb? yes. I mostly do not have anyone to stop me though and I do think it would be the best way to test. my psych is not very helpful I'll be honest, they keep telling me to buy fancy vitamins. I'm not keen on forking over $40 for something I cant be guaranteed will help, I did that once with CBD tablets for anxiety and it did nothing for me. I would change psychs but this one is the only human who has given me meds without a formal diagnosis for bipolar, which I need to Dodge as much as possible because I'm a Florida tranny and if I have that on my history theyll try and bar me from HRT

I wish shit was simpler!!! fuck!!!

Jaxson Rivers adjusted the camera, tilting it this way and that way until he and his two other co-host, Micheal and Taylor, where perfectly in frame. After hitting the red record button, a soft beep sounded as Jaxson took a seat between his best friends. Then, picking up his mic, he took a deep breath and looked straight into the camera.  

“Well hello anarchist! I’m one of your handsome hosts, Jaxson Rivers.” Said Jaxson as he gripped his mic with both hands. 

“And I’m your even better-looking host, Taylor Hunt, this handsome Hunk’s husband.” Taylor said, as he elbowed Micheal.   

“And I am Micheal Hunt, arguably the best-looking host on this show. And you’re listening to, Bunkers and Bongs, your favorite informative, yet bat shit crazy news podcast. Apple Jax, how’s the war?” Micheal said, turning to his co-host. 

Jaxson opened his mouth to respond when a loud bang went off, causing their drinking glasses, and the plywood serving as their table, to rattle. 

“Well, it’s still going on, that’s for sure.” Jaxson said, looking directly into the camera. 

Hosting a podcast in the middle of a war zone was indeed as bat shit crazy as it sounded. But Bunkers and Bongs hadn't always been so hectic. There was a time when Bunkers and Bongs was known as ‘The Insomniac Podcast’. Back then, Jaxson, Micheal, and Taylor’s lives were quite normal. Before the war, Jaxson, Micheal, and Taylor recorded their podcast in a proper studio; they had employees and they made money through brand deals, merch sales, and donations from their listeners.  

Back then, before the civil war began, The Insomniacs, as they called themselves, had Roth IRAs and other investments, they had partners and an office which they ran their operations out of, and they had their whole lives mapped out. 

But then the war started and much like the small town they lived in, all The Bunker Boys’s lives went up in flames.  

.... 

Before the war, The Bunker Boys were known as The Tree Boys, and their podcast, Bongs N Things, was all about THC, CBD, and LGBT news. 

But now, that was no longer the case, six and a half years ago, The Bunker Boys, and everyone around them, chose to write off all those who tried to warn them. 

It was 2024 when it all began, anti-LGBTQ legislation was being written and in acted like movies hitting the box office. Every week there was a new law being enacted, and The Hall Monitors, a group of older gay men who had a love of law, started a blog, detailing all that was happening in every state. The Hall Monitors had friends in high places who would inform them of what was happening on the federal level, and The Hall Monitors tried to spread the news; but with very little knowledge about how to work their devices, and even less about how social media worked, The Hall Monitors' message failed to reached a wide enough audience. The Monitors tried to use the popular publications to get the news in the paper, but no one was really reading the paper anymore, at least not the local ones that The Monitors had access to. 

Eventually, when people finally did realize what was going on, their neighborhoods where already filled with men dressed in cameo uniforms, and the entire country was now under total government control.  

For some, the uniformed men weren’t a problem; that is until they widened their scope of targets, going from targeting just LGBT folks, to then targeting people with disabilities, people who held jobs that the government deemed as ‘unimportant’, or just anyone the government saw as a threat. And of course, all the ‘die hard citizens’, the bigots, and all those who opposed any and everyone who decided to go against the grain, they joined the government, and soon, the entire country was divided into two halves, and all hell broke loose. 

But a civil war? The country of Deston, where The Insomniacs used to live, could handle a simple civil war; hell, their country started with a civil war! But this war was far greater than any civil war the world had ever seen before. Both halves of this war didn’t just have bombs, guns, and tanks, they also had concoctions that could raise the dead and powders that if inhaled, would allow the makers of that powder to fully control whoever had ingested it. 

All the while, while the citizens of Deston were busy killing one another, The Insomniacs were simply trying to get as far away from the chaos as possible. But when the lock down came, Jaxson, Micheal, and Taylor got trapped in Deston, and they figured they were going to die there. So, the trio found a bunker, and they hid out. For days, they just sat in the bunker and did their best not to get involved in the fight. 

Friends of the boys, who had been forced into the fight, would come by the bunker to check on the trio; they brought snacks and updates about what was happening, and luckily for the boys, prior to starting the podcast, Taylor and Micheal worked as nurses, so they were able to patch up the soldiers in exchange for protection. 

Eventually, Micheal somehow managed to find their old studio amongst the rubble, and through a sheer act of God, all their recording equipment was able to be salvaged, and after convincing the general, of the small army they’d been staying with, to allow them to use the army’s internet, The Insomniac Boys where back online, this time as Bongs and Bunkers. 

“Boy, I really wish we would have paid a little more attention to the sales of military grade weapons to your average, everyday citizen.” Taylor said as he stared directly into the camera. 

Micheal shook his head. 

“Hindsight is 20/20 my guy. Wishing to change the past isn’t gonna do shit for us now.” Micheal said.  

Jaxson chuckled, now it was his turn to shake his head. 

“Ahh, ever the Optimus, I’ve always loved that about ya kid.” Jaxson said as he slapped a hand on Micheal’s leg. 

Between the three of them, the men where a tornado of fear, hopelessness, and a delusional level of optimism. The Bunker Boys where like a perfect scale, each man talking turns embodying the only three emotions they had; fear, numbness, and a delusional level of optimism. The men never had a conversation about which of them would embody which emotion; they just naturally gravitated towards one of the three every day. Call it fate, God, or something else, but no two men ever gravitated towards the same state of being, so they always remained in perfect harmony. They would simply wake up, assume their roles, and go about their day. 

“Do you think this war will....” Jaxson’s statement was cut short by a loud thud against the bunker door. 

“Sidney?” The men all said in unison as they looked at one another. 

Sidney was the trio's self-assigned assistant. Since the Bunker Boys where the only ones with internet access, they recorded the podcast on tapes, and Sidney would deliver the tapes to the folks on the front line. At first, the boys tried to discourage Sydney from doing such a dangerous job, but when she explained that this podcast was all that the soldiers had to look forward to, The Bunker Boys realized they couldn’t say no. Of course, Sydney wasn’t out there all alone, she was armed, and traveled with the soldiers, but that didn’t stop the boys didn’t worrying about her.  

“Sorry I’m late, we got roped into a fucking prayer circle, and we all know how long those things can last.” She said with a huff. 

Plopping down onto one of the buckets the guys used for chairs, Sydney huffed as she leaned against Jaxson. 

“People are really digging the pod by the way. This civil war has got everyone fiending for these tapes.” She said, holding up her sac full of food.  

The guys weren’t too thrilled about Sydney crossing a literal war zone, just to give out copies of their podcast tapes, but she loved the thrill. But more than just for the thrill, Sydney truly believed that The Insomniac Podcast was more than just ‘a silly little podcast.’ The Insomniac Podcast was so many people’s sunshine in the middle of a fucking storm, and though they couldn’t stop the war, they were keeping the people informed and entertained. And for Sydney, that was worth risking her life.  

And so, opening up the sac, she cracked open a soda someone had traded, slipped another tape into the recorder, and sat back and watched as her friends did their thing.

An Effective Way to Promote your CBD Business

As part of your efforts to promote your CBD Packaging business, create minimalist packaging designs. This unique idea requires less materials and components for creation of the final packaging design.

At its core, packaging should produce no waste and use minimal energy resources during recycling. Colors, graphics and illustrations should be employed sparingly.

Design that is both easy to read and memorable enough to make an impressionful statement about the target market is the goal here. While not mandatory, taking this extra step saves both time and money while being an eco-friendly approach towards expanding into your target market.

Utilizing Recyclable Materials for Business Growth

As part of your efforts to expand your Custom Boxes UK business, use recyclable materials in its manufacture. Cardboard, paperboard and Kraft paper all contain cellulose which makes them easily recyclable. Modern day consumers have access to extensive knowledge regarding packaging production processes. Thus, their use in production can attract environmentally conscious customers towards target markets.

Processing these materials helps lower carbon dioxide and methane emissions two main contributors to global warming while using less energy, saving money that could be invested elsewhere such as marketing. Since there's no need to invest in new materials, processing the packaging costs are significantly reduced, saving both money and attracting more and more people to your product or service.

Cost-Effective Strategies to Attract New Business

Attracting new business in an eco-friendly manner at an economical cost requires selecting eco-friendly printing for CBD packaging design.

Traditional printing methods do not promote environmental sustainability. Take for instance the inks commonly used by packaging industry specifically oil based inks.Packaging factories emit harmful chemicals that pollute the environment, as well as printing processes which emit airborne toxins into the atmosphere. Therefore, when designing packaging choose sustainable printing techniques.

Assure the printing process and inks comply with international sustainability standards for optimal results that attract the interest of target audiences in niche markets.Soy ink provides even distribution throughout packaging and a smooth finish, while embossing techniques can combine to produce unique textures.

Hahahaha how creeped out and disgusted would you be?

I know I will. Maybe it's always been this way. If you find me, which, I hope now you won't, I won't know what to do, really. I'll probably deny. Deny deny deny deny deny. Deny and lie. But my heartbeat speaks no lies, only soft murmurs that you've talked about before. Perhaps there is a hole in my heart, like the joke you've laughed at. A hole when I saw her beside you in your profile picture, a hole when I found her Facebook profile, a hole when I saw , more, on pictures

uploaded everywhere

When I saw her, everywhere

I can't say it's suffocating, I'm sure theres

Love

Between you two

But I can't help but think and hope and jump to conclusions that maybe there's still a chance for me. But who am I to say that? It's stupid, right? How can I compare? If I can hope, that means I'm still immature, right?

But what can I do other than hope? I can't even say I love you, but this is either love, obsession, or dependence. And I'd like to say it's either love or dependence. If you ask me to get over you, I will do it. Because it's you. But because it's you, I can't get over it. If I do get over it, over these feelings, over this attraction, attachment, dependence, interest, and dare I say love, then I'll have nothing. You're all I'm hanging onto in this physical world. You were all I was hanging on to in the spiritual world. Last year, I wanted to kill myself. So, so bad. I was prepared. I had a plan. I would go to a busy place, maybe a cbd in orchard, where people would be. It would be busy and packed.

I had a good part of my will planned out in my notes, and the rest in my head. I decided it would be at least 15 pages (pieces of paper, not sides). I would call Singapore out on all it's flaws, say everything I've been keeping down, and trash talk everyone that I've never brought myself to confront irl before. And in that will, I would express my love. To you, to other people, and dedicate all my money to you. If that'd work. I would print all 15+ pages and put them in a plastic box in a backpack. Then I would upload the digital version to Pinterest, whatsapp, Instagram, Google docs, tiktok, Wattpad, as many social media platforms as I could think of. And then I'd go on Instagram live, saying that I would kill myself, tell everyone the location, etc. I'd call news agencies, report a suicide, tell them to check my bag and make sure it hits the headlines. I'll link this will to my Instagram, tiktok, Whatsapp status, every group chat I'm in. Then I would take my life, backpack on my back, will securely kept in the hard plastic box, with another copy of my will left on top of the building. So that when I fall 10-20+ levels, the will is securely tucked inside, dry and not destroyed. Not soaked by my blood and unreadable. An illegible will is as good as no last words at all.

So I'd go out with a bang, and hopefully a protest. A suicide in Singapore is pretty big, right? It'd make good news for a while, and I don't care if people forget me. I just want them to remember my impact, or have lasting laws that are caused by me. I want to make a difference so people don't suffer like me anymore, so that Singapore would be more emotionally sensitive to people's needs, and I could be an example in debates. Oh well.

I hang on, because of you. I didn't die, because of you. I looked forward to seeing you in school, even if it was just those times of little sightings around the school, in the hall during morning assembly.

But it doesn't matter. I hope you never read this. If you somehow do, please tell me. I'll either deny, deny, deny, or kneel down and beg at your feet for forgiveness. Because if this scares you, you don't want to know the other things that I do, or the way I really look at you. I'm so sorry. I know you could never forgive me. Your existence is just so beautiful and I wish to appreciate every aspect of you. So much. I stayed alive for you. But anytime you want me to go, I'll do it. I'll do it. If you want to cut me open and dissect me for my heart, gladly. Any organ would be amazing, to be of some benefit to you. I wish to make you smile, see you laugh. I wish to make you happy. Not even in the way lovers do. Or friends. You might be uncomfortable with that. Even as just an acquaintance, if my stupid loud laughter or dumb remarks make you laugh along too, that's so much for me. So much more than enough, to keep me living for years and years and years and years and decades and lifetimes. That's a bold claim to make. But it's

Simply because

You are you
