How a suction machine for sewer cleaning works

To a sewer suction machine that has a recycling facility, a connecting hose is attached. This hose connects the vacuum loader machine to the dump tank. This tank collects the sludge sucked from the manhole, gulley pit and septic tank.

Hydro jetting is a highly effective method of cleaning and unclogging sewer pipes. It involves using a specialized machine that generates high-pressure water streams to remove debris, grease, tree roots, and other obstructions from the inside of the pipes. During the hydro jetting process, a professional plumber will insert a flexible hose with a specialized nozzle into the sewer pipe. The hose is connected to a high-pressure water machine that can deliver water at pressures typically ranging from 1,500 to 4,000 pounds per square inch (psi). The plumber carefully guides the hose through the pipe, allowing the pressurized water to blast away any blockages and thoroughly clean the pipe walls. The high-pressure water effectively cuts through and flushes out accumulated debris, roots, and other substances that may be causing clogs or reduced flow. As a result, hydro jetting can significantly improve the functioning and flow capacity of sewer pipes. Hydro jetting is often considered a preferable option compared to traditional drain snaking or chemical treatments because it offers a more thorough and long-lasting cleaning solution. It can reach all parts of the pipe, including bends and joints, effectively removing any built-up material. However, it's important to note that hydro jetting should be performed by trained professionals with the appropriate equipment and expertise. Improper use of high-pressure water can potentially damage older or fragile pipes. Therefore, it's crucial to consult with a licensed plumber who can assess your specific situation, determine if hydro jetting is suitable, and ensure the process is performed safely and effectively. If you suspect you have a clogged or slow-draining sewer pipe, you can contact us to discuss hydro jetting as a potential solution. We will be able to evaluate the condition of your pipes and provide the appropriate course of action to address the issue.

Nothing will be more weirder than the Ninjago fandom acting like Cole was in love with Nya throughout Rebooted.

Through the entire Love Triangle ordeal, he never actually acts for Nya, instead only reacting to Jay. Observe:

Blackout

In the previous episode, The Art of the Silent Fist, there was a scene between Cole and Nya. Throughout that episode, Nya was struggling with her newfound feelings towards Cole (given to her by a machine I might add but that's a conversation for another day). Nya talks to Cole in that scene and it ends with them holding hands and Cole jokingly saying "Don't tell Jay."

Why am I bringing this up? Because I honestly have trouble looking at that through a romantic lense. I often see people use this as evidence even though it doesn't match up with how the show would later indicate romance (they looked at each other so they're in love now! Chemistry, what's that!) More importantly, Nya never actually articulates her feelings for Cole in this scene. This is crucial when getting to Blackout. In Blackout, after Pixal blurts out that Cole is a perfect match for Nya, not Jay, who entered the room at the time, his first instinct is to attack Cole as soon as he saw him! From the POV of Cole, this looks like his friend calling him names and a whole lot of other things seemingly out of nowhere, he never actually heard about the "Perfect Match" results and that combined with the previously mentioned scene leaves us with a Cole who isn't in love with Nya and is only focused on Jay.

The Curse of The Golden Master

In this clip, after the ninja head into the sewer like a certain other group of color coded ninja, Jay gets into another spat with Cole after Cole dared to *checks note* look out for Nya's safety. This causes the two to get into an argument and ignore Nya falling from the broken ladder.

Now this scene on it's own doesn't mean much, but when paired with the other episodes mentioned, it starts to paint a bigger picture. This scene is a tipping point for Cole, going from someone clueless about his situation and fighting with Jay to letting this petty, near one-sided rivalry get in the way of the task at hand.

This scene is honestly the perfect representation of the Love Triangle in Rebooted: it was never really about Nya, she was just a stepping stone to get to Jay yelling at Cole over a situation he has no idea he's even in. Cole isn't out of the woodwork either as he begins to ignore Nya solely so he can insult Jay, but hey, it can't get any worse right?

Codename: Arcturus

It got worse.

In Codename: Arcturus, we see Jay, Cole, and Nya at the movie theater to "prove who Nya should go out with." Now, you may ask "doesn't that sequence end with both Jay and Cole asking who Nya will date and her kidnapping a cleaning robot?" yes, it does! But the important thing here is that it wasn't even Nya's idea in the first place ("Hey, it wasn't my idea to go on a double date to decide between you two.") Interesting thing of note, this is the only episode in the entire season where it's actually shown Cole fighting for Nya's affection, but even then it's not really about her, it's about getting back at Jay more than anything.

I know someone will come in wondering about "authorial intent," the intent in question being that Cole could be a potential love interest for Nya moving forward, but while I can see the intent, I can also acknowledge that what actually landed on the page and later the screen does not match the intent at all. Instead of Cole falling in love with Nya and getting into a spat with Jay that way, we got Cole treating Nya like a stepping stone to get back at Jay, disregarding her feelings in the process.

TL;DR: Kai should've knocked Jay and Cole upside the head for being weird about his sister

Masterlist

Weeks had passed since Sihtric had rescued you from a forced marriage with Masema. He had called the cops, leaving them an anonymous tip and, as you didn't want to be involved with Masema anymore in any way, you agreed with Sihtric to leave before the first responders arrived. And so far it has been the right choice.

You finally got to spend more days and nights together, but because of everything that had happened ever since that belated Halloween party, you had not been intimate anymore since that very same night. You were both okay with that, as just sleeping in the same bed and waking up next to each other was already a blessing, but you both struggled in secret to not jump each other at any given moment. Sihtric was still careful at first and did not want to rush things. He knew you liked him, but sometimes his insecurities still took over and he was afraid you'd be just another girl who liked him for his looks, and not for who he was.

He was still afraid you would find someone better than him, someone who was highly educated with a high paid job and a fancy house. Sihtric was and had none of that. His mechanic job paid him well enough to live a pleasant life and to save some money for unexpected expenses, but Sihtric wasn't highly educated and he lived in a modest studio apartment just outside the city centre. He had been somewhat ashamed to take you to his place, and it was only after that horrific night with Masema that he took you there, because he felt he could keep you safer where he knew everything and everyone around him.

You liked his place once you got to explore it, after you woke up the next morning and the biggest scare had worn off overnight. His place was small and simple, but it told you everything you needed to know about him all at once. The apartment was small and cosy, with a separate bedroom just big enough for a double bed, which was positioned against the left wall, and a clothing cabinet on the right, of which one door was missing and the remaining one hung half loose while being covered with stickers of various motorcycle brands. On the wall, above the bed, was one large shelf decorated with an old white helmet, which Sihtric told you was the first helmet he ever bought along with his first motorbike, and next to the helmet was a pot with a dying cactus. On his nightstand remained an old but empty pizza box which he had yet to throw out, his bedroom door had an old poster of a pin-up girl seated on a vintage Harley Davidson, and his bedroom floor was surprisingly clean for a guy who lived alone and hadn't seriously dated anyone in a while.

When you left his bedroom you stepped into his living room which had an open kitchen on the right. The kitchen was small, perfect for one person, but it became evident when you stayed over that he needed a dinner table, because he couldn't ask you to eat like a sewer rat above the sink, like he usually does when he's on his own. The only problem was that the apartment had no space for a dinner table, as a large black corner sofa took up most of its limited space, along with a tv cabinet and a big tv to go with it. There was room for one more cabinet in the living room, and that cabinet was filled with piled up videogames, various protective motor gear, such as gloves and balaclavas to wear underneath a helmet, and naturally he had multiple tool boxes too. His living room also had numerous posters and fancy prints of scarcely dressed anime girls, to which he blushed once you pointed that out. His bathroom was also small but surprisingly clean, with a shower, a sink, a toilet and some space for a washing machine and a dryer, and on the outside of the bathroom door was a large mirror.

Sihtrich had  worried his place wouldn't be up to your standards, as you owned a whole house in a pretty good neighbourhood, but you reassured him after the first night you stayed over that you did not care about how and where he lived. You just wanted the place to feel like home, and that's exactly how you felt when he first took you to his apartment. But then maybe you would feel at home everywhere as long as Sihtric was by your side, and you started to stay over at his place more often ever since.

You also found out that during Sihtric's time off, now that he was fully healed again and enjoying life as he used to, he liked to wear a hint of eyeliner and a silver chain around his neck, along with a Mjölnir pendant which was attached to a black leather cord. His clothes were simple, when not dressed in his work overalls, and he usually wore black jeans and comfortable hoodies or slim fitted shirts with his leather jacket on top. He owned good quality motor gear too, a matching set which consisted of a black coat, black trousers, black gloves and black boots, which all matched with his black helmet. But since Sihtric was an experienced biker, he rarely wore his full gear and often cruised in his jeans and a hoodie underneath his leather jacket. 

And today wouldn't be any different, as you had agreed to go for a ride with him because it was a surprisingly warm afternoon for the time of the year. But where Sihtric would dress in his normal clothes, he refused to let you climb on the back of his bike without the proper clothing after everything that had happened. And so he had recently bought you a full set of protective gear, which he surprised you with when you came over after spending the night before apart.

'But isn't this stuff expensive?' you mumbled as Sihtric zipped up your coat.

'See it is a, eh, first real gift from your boyfriend,' Sihtric chuckled shyly while you checked yourself out in his mirror wearing the full gear, and he leaned back against the wall next to you.

Sihtric felt his cheeks heat up as he looked at you, for he thought you were his absolute dream girl and looked just perfect in that outfit he had bought you. He always hoped to find himself a backpack, someone who wants to go on rides with him, but he never dared dream his backpack would be someone as stunning and perfect as you.

'So… do you like it?' he asked hesitantly.

'I do,' you smiled, 'I really do. But I just don't know how to thank you for this.'

'You don't need to thank me,' Sihtric shrugged and handed you the finishing touch for your outfit; a black helmet which matched his own.

He helped you with the helmet, adjusting it to fit right, and he felt shy again as you looked up at him while the visor was up, admiring the sight of his dark eyeliner around his mismatched eyes.

'What?' he frowned after a moment and fought a smile.

'Well… I… I can't kiss you anymore now,' your voice somewhat muffled by the helmet, 'can I?'

Sihtric laughed as he put on his leather jacket, then grabbed your helmet and kissed the tip of your nose, which made you giggle, and he then took his own helmet before he opened the door for you. You walked a little clumsily in the motor gear, as the material was still firm and not broken in yet, and Sihtric enjoyed the sight of you walking down the stairs of the apartment building while you desperately held onto the railing. Once you reached the parking garage located under the apartment building, Sihtric placed his hand lightly on your lower back and walked you to his bikes. He had recently sold his previous bike and purchased two new ones; a black Triumph Bonneville T120 and a black ARCH 1S, the latter which had nearly made him go bankrupt. But only the Triumph was suitable to ride with a passenger, as the other bike had no space for a backpack to tag along.

When you closed in on his bikes, Sihtric started to feel a little nervous. It had been a while since he had taken you out on a proper trip, as the last time you were his passenger after the drama at the abandoned farm didn't really count in his opinion, and he just wanted you to feel safe. Especially after the horrific crash that started the whole mess you had both gone through.

'You nervous?' he asked just before he put on his helmet.

'Healthy nerves,' you confessed.

'If you don't feel comfortable or if I'm going too fast for your liking, just pinch me or something, okay? Then I'll slow down and pull over.'

You nodded in agreement and the butterflies rushed through your stomach when Sihtric took your helmet in his hands again, and he looked down into your eyes as both your visors were still open.

'I love you,' he said, and you could tell by the crinkles around his eyes that he smiled.

'I love you too,' you smiled back and moved your gloved hands up his torso.

'And for that I'm blessed,' Sihtric winked and leaned his helmet against yours while he continued to look down into your eyes, this being the closest your helmets would allow you to get.

'As am I,' you almost murmured and slid your hands under his unzipped jacket.

'Are you staying the night?' Sihtric suddenly asked and curled his fingers around the neck of your coat.

'Maybe,' you taunted, 'you want me to?'

'Of course I want you,' he chuckled, then realised what he had said and corrected himself, 'to, eh, to stay the night I mean.'

You laughed at his half hidden but clearly flustered face, and in response Sihtric slapped the visor on your helmet shut. 

'Hey!' you laughed and opened it again, 'I want a kiss now because you were being mean.'

'I wasn't mean.'

'Yes you were.'

'I wasn't,' Sihtric chuckled and nudged your shoulder teasingly.

You grabbed onto his arm and your boyfriend frowned at you.

'What?' he smiled.

'I want to kiss you,' you said, innocently.

Sihtric groaned lightly, clearly wanting the same, and he then helped you take off your helmet before taking off his own. He turned to hang the helmets on the handlebars of his bike and, as he turned back, cupped your cheeks to pull you in for a kiss. The sweet kiss quickly turned hot and heavy as your tongues swirled and breaths were being stolen. Sihtric continued to kiss you while you fumbled with your gloves, then threw them on the garage floor once you finally freed yourself of them. You moved your hands up into his dark curls immediately, lightly tugging his hair to keep the kiss as deep as possible.

'Fuck,' Sihtric breathed in between sloppy kisses and he grabbed your hips, 'baby…'

'I want you,' you whined with a desperate sigh against his lips, 'please.'

'Yeah?' he chuckled softly, then kissed you again, 'you want me, princess?'

'Mhm,' you hummed, to which Sihtric picked you up in his arms and seated you sideways on his bike, 'I want you right now,' you breathed heavily and wrapped your legs around his waist.

'Right now?' Sihtric smiled slyly, his hands trailing up and down your thighs, 'here?'

'Right here,' you smirked and slid your hands underneath his hoodie while you brought your lips to his neck, 'it's been too long, Siht.'

'I know,' he agreed, one hand on your waist and the other in your hair as he threw his head back at the feeling of your mouth on his sensitive skin, and he inhaled sharply, 'hm, far too long.'

'Need you,' you murmured, then looked at him and flicked your tongue against his lips, 'I need you inside me so badly,' you mewled and rubbed his hardened length through his jeans, 'please, babe.'

Sihtric smiled and cupped your cheeks, 'So cute,' his lips touching yours as he spoke and his tongue licking your lips between every few words, 'so pretty… when you beg for my cock.'

You moaned into his mouth and tugged firmly at his leather belt, 'Forget this bike,' you rasped, 'I wanna ride you, baby.'

Sihtric chuckled darkly and bucked his hips against yours, making you moan at the slight friction you felt as his erection just barely touched your core through your motor trousers, and he captured your lips into a passionate kiss once more.

'Tonight,' he husked, 'I promise you get to ride me tonight, if you're a good girl of course.'

'I'm always a good girl,' you smiled and teasingly sucked his lower lip, then pecked his lips a few more times before you were both startled as someone suddenly started their car not too far away from you.

Now that you were both snapped out of your love and lust filled bubble, Sihtric gave you one more sweet kiss and then handed you your helmet again.

'But I want you now,' you pouted.

'I want you now too, princess,' Sihtric said as he held your chin, 'but not here, not in public.'

'Fine,' you sighed and feigned annoyance, to which Sihtric squinted his eyes as he glanced at you, almost daring you to roll your eyes at him again, but you quickly averted your eyes and put the helmet back on again.

Sihtric put his own helmet back on and got on his bike, then signalled you to get on too. The bike forced you to sit all pushed up against him, and Sihtric reached behind him to take your hands after he had started his bike, pulling your arms around his waist tightly.

'Don't let go of me, okay?' he half yelled over his shoulder.

'I won't,' you yelled in reply, and rested your helmet against his back as he took off.

The bike ride lasted almost two hours before you had to tell Sihtric you needed a break, because your legs began to hurt, and you found your moment when he had to stop at a traffic light. You yelled his name and tapped his shoulder to get his attention, and you explained to him what was wrong. Sihtric nodded and said he'd pull over in a few minutes, at the parking of a forest which was close by. You told him that was okay with you and, as it was quite a long light you had to wait for, you began to tease him after he had shut down his engine while waiting.

You first wrapped your arms around his neck to give him a loving hug, but then you slowly moved your hands down to his thighs, to which Sihtric smiled but you couldn't see it, and he hummed softly as he leaned back against you. You trailed your hands to his inner thighs, and then slowly moved them up, but Sihtric was quick to grab your hands and stop you before you could rub his painfully trapped erection through his jeans. You laughed teasingly and Sihtric shook his head. He opened his visor and reached behind him, caressing your legs, and he then looked back over his shoulder.

'Your legs are going to be over my shoulders tonight, princess,' he winked.

You gasped lightly and felt a rush of butterflies through your stomach while you blushed behind your closed visor. And before you could reply, the light turned green, and Sihtric started his bike again and you clung onto him as he speeded off. When he slowed down several minutes later and turned to a rather quiet road that led through the forest, he took your hand. He held it up along with his, above his head as he rode on, and you felt the wind against your glove while you felt an overwhelming sense of freedom inside of you. He then lowered your hand and snuck it under his half open jacket, placing it on his heart and holding it there until he found the deserted parking lot to make a stop.

You both dismounted and took off your helmets, and, as soon as you had rid yourself of your gloves and unzipped your coat because it was rather warm, your lips found each other's and you kissed slowly and sweetly for several long minutes while no one was around.

'You're my whole world, little lady,' Sihtric whispered against your lips as he cradled your face in his hands, 'everything.'

'And you're too good to be true,' you murmured, 'you have to be. You can't be real…'

'I'm real, princess,' he said and nuzzled your nose before he kissed you again, 'and so is my love for you. I want to love you and smother you with it until you feel you could die from it.'

He smiled softly as he looked down into your eyes, and the sun made his mismatched eyes even more enchanting as the thin dark eyeliner decorated around them. You felt your cheeks heat up, and as it was a warm day you both decided to take off your jackets and threw them over his bike. Sihtric took off his hoodie too, and once he was in just his white shirt he, out of nowhere, wrapped his arms around you and tackled you, pulling you down with him in the tall grass between the flowers. You yelped as you were taken down and before you could even blink, Sihtric pulled you on top of him as he laid down, his hands on your thighs while he bit down on his lip, his eyes hooded as if he was intoxicated. You giggled and took his hands, only to pepper them with soft kisses, earning a low moan from him and you felt he became aroused once again as he was underneath you. You teasingly wiggled your butt, knowing it would make him even more aroused, and he then grabbed your hips.

'You wanna ride me?' Sihtric husked and made you grind down on him, 'hm?'

'Yeah,' you sighed with a smile and ran your hands over his torso.

'You think you can handle me?'

'We've made love before,' you chuckled with a light blush, 'only once, but…'

'Yes, made love,' Sihtric pointed out, 'but I'm talking about fucking, darling, not making love.'

You giggled like an excited schoolgirl, you were still to discover a lot about your boyfriend but you liked what you had learned so far. And you wouldn't mind if he had fucked you right there, in the grass between the pretty flowers, but you already figured he wouldn't do anything with you in public like that.

'But… you won't do it here, right?' you tried regardless.

'No,' he smiled sweetly and trailed his fingers down your cheek, 'not here, baby.'

'You ever done stuff in a public place like this?' you wondered.

'I have,' Sihtric confessed, 'many years ago.'

'Really?' you grinned, 'what did you do?'

'Aren't you curious?' he laughed and then hummed softly as he took your hands in his, 'well, if you really want to know… I sucked someone off,' he said casually and with a light shrug.

'What?' your eyes widened.

'What?'

'You… you what?' you laughed, 'really?'

'Yeah,' Sihtric laughed, 'what's so shocking about that?'

'Well, I… I don't know- I guess I didn't, uh, expect… that.'

'Yeah, well,' Sihtric shrugged again, 'I dated a guy back then and you know, we were in love, so things happened when we knew the chances of being caught were slim. It was fun and kind of exciting to do risky stuff in public, but I'm too old for that now I guess,' he licked his lips and looked up at you, 'and I would never want anyone to see you exposed like that in any way,' he took your chin again, 'that's only for me to see.'

You smiled and cupped his cheeks, accepting the fact he just didn't want you to be seen with half your clothes off by anyone else, and you couldn't deny you liked that about him. 

'So,' you said after a moment, 'you liked sucking that guy off then?' you snorted.

'I did,' Sihtric said cockily and without shame, 'why?' he playfully raised an eyebrow.

'Nah, just wondering,' you shrugged with a grin, 'it's an, eh… interesting thought.'

'Is it?' Sihtric suddenly husked, and he took your hand, tracing his lips with your fingertips as he looked at you intensely.

You swallowed hard and felt your cheeks heat up when he kissed your fingers, and then ran his tongue slowly across your index and middle finger, all while he kept his eyes locked with yours, and the mischief in his eyes became clear as day. You became lightheaded as you watched him slowly drag his tongue over your fingers again, only to stop when your fingertips touch his lower lip, and he then winked seductively before he took your fingers in his mouth, and sucked them painstakingly slow while he never tore his eyes away from yours. 

Everything around you became silent, every sound disappeared; the chirping of birds, the leaves rustling in the wind, the sound of vehicles on the highway far away… it all drowned out as you watched your boyfriend suck your digits as you sat on top of him, and your eyes went heavy while your panties became soaked. You mindlessly grinded your hips against his as you watched him, moaning pathetically while you did, but then Sihtric pulled your fingers away from his mouth and laughed softly at the state you were in.

'Was it as interesting as you thought?' he spoke soft and low, the amusement lingering in his voice.

You nodded while your eyes were still heavy, 'Yes,' you sighed, 'even b-better… please,' you then begged and leaned in, 'please let me ride you.'

Sihtric chuckled softly and kissed your lips, 'If you only knew how pretty you look when you're so desperate,' he whispered, 'but don't worry, I'll show you.'

And your mechanic boyfriend kept his promise. When he took you back to his place again, after having stopped for dinner at a restaurant at the side of a road, you both wasted no time and started taking off each other's clothes before you even reached the door to his apartment. Once inside, he kicked the door shut and lifted you up in his arms as he kissed you, walking you over to his couch where he sat you down. He kissed your lips again before he pulled away, and you protested against the sudden loss of him while you were left in only your lingerie. Sihtric was only half naked, still wearing his jeans and boxers underneath, but the curls on the unshaved side of his head were messy and his cheeks were rosy. He grabbed a wooden chair out of the bathroom, on which he always piled his clothes when taking a shower, and he placed it in front of the mirror which was on the bathroom door.

You watched him, rather confused, and he then turned back to you and took your hand. He pulled you up to him and he kissed you as he walked you backwards to the chair.

'I told you,' he rasped, 'I'd show you how pretty you are for me.'

Sihtric unzipped his jeans and lowered them only slightly, then sat down and pulled you in his lap while you both faced your reflection. He teased you for a moment, running his fingers across your wet panties and making you watch how worked up he made you with such ease, until you begged him for more. He took your face and kept your eyes on the mirror while he pulled his hard cock out, and your mouth nearly watered as he made you watch him stroke his length slowly. He brought his lips to your neck, where he kissed and sucked your skin before he spoke in your ear while you made the most desperate noises.

'See how fucking pretty you are,' he whispered and looked at you in the mirror over your shoulder, 'making such a mess of yourself for me,' he smiled sweetly and with pride. 'Do you want it?' he then purred.

You nodded eagerly and with tears in your eyes, you couldn't contain yourself anymore and started to fall apart in front of him.

'Please,' you begged and grinded his thigh, 'please…'

'Such a good girl,' Sihtric cooed, and he then picked you up and brought you to his bedroom, where he threw you on the bed.

He loved how small you were to him and how easily he could toss you around, with love of course, and he climbed on top of you after he pulled down your panties and took off his own remaining clothes. He cupped your cheeks and then kissed your lips softly.

'I love you,' he whispered.

'I love you too,' you murmured with a smile, your hands roaming over his broad shoulders.

'Good,' Sihtric chuckled softly and kissed you again, 'remember that I love you, because I'm going to fuck you like I don't, and I won't stop unless you tell me to.'

You nodded, and he wasted no time to sheath himself completely inside you, filling you up entirely and you clawed at his back at the sudden sensation. You arched your back and threw your head back as he began to thrust into you, picking up his pace every few seconds until your eyes rolled back and you could only moan and whimper in his ear while you clenched around his twitching cock. 

Sihtric sat back up after a while, and he threw your legs over his shoulder before he leaned back in again, he then grabbed your hips and he began to fuck you without remorse. His bed creaked loudly underneath you and the headboard banged against the wall with each hard thrust, his necklaces dangled above your face and hit his chest rhythmically while he desperately bit down his moans as he was completely buried inside you. He kept this up for a while, but then suddenly flipped you over and you were on top of him before you could climax.

You looked down into his eyes with surprise, his eyeliner still on point while his body glistened with sweat just like yours, and he gave you a sly half smile as he put his hands behind his head while he laid back on his bed.

'You wanted to ride me, princess?' he rasped.

'Mhm,' you whined, and you sank down on his length and began to bounce up and down while you moaned and gasped.

You found support by putting your hands on his scarred and toned chest, all while Sihtric didn't move and just watched you as you fucked him the way you had asked for. And you continued to fuck him until your legs began to hurt and your whines became even prettier, desperate for his help.

'Mh,' Sihtric hummed with a dark chuckle, 'such a good girl,' he whispered as you struggled to keep moving, 'just like that… good girl.'

But not much later your entire body trembled. You were desperate for your release and tears rolled down your cheeks as you tried to keep a steady pace, which was impossible by now.

'Please,' you gasped, but Sihtric didn't look impressed and he refused to help you.

'All day you begged to ride me, princess,' he said sternly but with a sweetness to it, 'so you'll fucking ride me now, and you won't stop until I fill that pretty pussy of yours up.'

You did as you were told, gasping and moaning and trembling while you continued to ride your mechanic, and he eventually took a hold of your hips, not helping you, but simply digging his fingers in your skin.

'Keep making those pretty sounds for me now,' Sihtric said, panting while he struggled to fight his own moans now, 'keep fucking going, princess.'

And you did, you fucked him until you couldn't anymore, and you both climaxed shortly after each other, breathing hard and heavy while your body was shaking as you sat on top of him, exhausted. Sihtric smiled at you, sweetly and head over heels in love with you, and he wiped your tear stained cheeks with his hands.

'Good girl,' he cooed and kissed your lips, then brought one hand down to your trembling thighs, 'you wanna taste it?'

You nodded as you sniffled, wanting nothing more than to feel and taste him entirely. And your boyfriend smiled proudly, running his fingers over the inside of your thigh and coating them with his cum as it dripped out of you. He brought his hand back up, smearing it over your lips before he slid his fingers between your parted lips to let you taste him.

'That's it,' Sihtric whispered as you cleaned his digits, 'don't waste a drop now. That's my good girl,' he smiled, and then pulled you in his arms.

Napoleon and Water

Excerpt from the book Aaron Burr in Exile: A Pariah in Paris, 1810-1811, by Jane Merrill and John Endicott

Aaron Burr lived in Paris for 15 months, and this book goes into detail about those years living under Napoleon’s rule. This part focuses on Napoleon’s water related reforms.

———

Napoleon’s fountains gave drinking water to the population, that is, children drank water, not beer. The water was free, not purchased. And the apartment would have had a separate water closet equipped with squat toilets (adopted from the Turks) and a bucket to wash it after use. Some restaurants and cafes had W.C.s, even one for ladies and one for gents. These were hooked into the sewer system that branched under each important street.

Napoleon merits points for delivering fresh water to Paris. If serving Paris with water from the d'Ourcq River by canals was not be a consummate success, Paris gained 40 new fountains, and the emperor commanded that fountains run all day (instead of a few limited hours) and that the water be free of charge.

Perhaps the most laudable of Napoleon’s policies were utilitarian city works, especially bringing clean water and sanitation to Paris. The improvements to infrastructure included new quays to prevent floods, new gutters and pavement, new aqueducts and fountains, and relocating cemeteries and slaughterhouses to the outskirts of the city. This was also a way of keeping up employment. An Austrian aristocrat in town during Napoleon’s wedding to Marie-Louise wrote his mother, in Vienna: “Nothing can give an idea of the immense projects undertaken simultaneously in Paris. The incoherence of it is incredible; one cannot imagine that the life of a single man would be enough to finish them.”

It was a tall order. Previous rulers had been aware of the problems and one big engineering initiative, a failed marvel, had been the waterworks at Marly, located on the banks of the Seine about seven miles from Paris. Louis XIV had it constructed to pump water from the river to his chateaux of Versailles and Marly. This was the machine marvel of its age, with 250 pumps that forced river water up a 500-foot rise to an aqueduct, and it was a sight Burr mentions going to see. By 1817 the “Marly machine” had deteriorated because it was made of wood, and the waterworks were abandoned.

Charles-Augustin Sainte-Beuve, the prominent 19th century literary critic, wrote that there had been “ten years of anarchy, sedition and laxity, during which no useful work had been undertaken, not a street had been cleaned, not a residence repaired nothing improved or cleansed.” Postrevolutionary Paris was at a nadir in terms of both the inadequate, disease-ridden water supply and the filthy streets, which were basically open sewers, deep with black mud and refuse.

“Napoleon,” writes Alistair Horne, “was obsessed by the water of Paris, and everything to do with it.”

Parisians had mostly been getting their water directly from the Seine or lining up at the scant pay fountains. In 1806, nineteen new wells for fountains were dug that flowed day and night and were free. Napoleon had a canal built 60 miles from the River Ourcq, ordering 500 men to dig it, while still a consul in 1801. It brought water to the Bassin de la Villette, opening in 1808. Some doubted the wisdom of having such an abundance of water—an oriental luxury that might incur moral decay. Now the supply of water for firefighting was also much improved. The canal had light boats, as Napoleon tried to make back some of the huge expenditure by licensing navigation, and a circular aqueduct from which underground conduits went to the central city. In 1810, there were still many water porters wheeling barrels through the city.

Now Napoleon attacked the problem of the Seine as a catchall for pollution. Parisians were so used to it that men swam naked in the river and a contemporary guidebook advised merely that the water of the Seine had no ill effects on foreigners so long as they drank it mixed with wine or a drop of vinegar. Thus houses on bridges were demolished and an immense push began to clean and modernize the city sewers.

As this book is about Aaron Burr, here is section about Burr taking inspiration by a new water related invention during his time in Paris:

Remarkably for someone who was very aware of his health, he never complained of the water. He did, however, take an interest in an invention to make it easier to dig a well. When the inventor of a process to make vinegar from the sap of any tree was not in his shop, Burr and a friend, “Crede”, went to see another invention: “We went then to see Mons. Cagniard, and his new invention of raising water and performing any mechanical operation. His apparatus is a screw of Archimedes turned the reverse, air, water, and quick silver. Cagniard was abroad; but we saw a model, and worked it, and got the report of a committee of the Institute on the subject. If the thing performs what is said I will apply it to give water to Charleston.”

A/N, not important: So y'all picked Friday. Hopefully this won't last too long, I just need some time to get my act together. Any criticism is welcome, constructive or not. This is supposed to be a gender neutral reader, so if I screwed up somewhere, please tell me.

-Ollie

Tw: sick mentions, dark themes, yandere, assumed kidnapping, medicine

Words: 1052

Summary: Yandere Rottmnt when you're sick

Mikey:

The moment he realizes you’re sick, he completely 180’s and gets the most caring he can. He makes you homemade soup, fluffs up your pillows, and just tries to make you as comfortable as possible.

He knows how much being sick sucks, and as his darling, he just has to make sure you’re not in too much pain.

Makes your favorite soups and keeps a full glass of cold water by you at all times. He doesn’t want you to need something and not have it.

Will not leave your side until you’re better.

Despite you being sick, he still clings onto you. He even does it more than usual. Because of his superior immune system(due to him being a war machine and living in the sewers his whole life), Mikey isn’t worried about getting sick himself.

This leads to him cuddling you even more than before. He doesn’t want to leave you alone for even a second.

Gets super grumpy if you don’t let him take care of you. This is how he’s being helpful. He knows what to do, so he doesn’t understand why you’re being so stubborn.

Refuses to let you do anything. He practically becomes your personal servant, if not for the fact you didn’t ask for any of this.

He gets really upset when you try to deny him anything. He’s just helping you, why can’t you be more grateful.

Donnie:

He noticed the second your temperature rose. As soon as you showed the smallest symptom, he immediately went into doctor mode. 

He figures out exactly what’s wrong with you. He made sure to get you your immunizations and shots when he took you, and you aren’t exposed to many pathogens or viruses while in the sterile and clean lab, so he gets really frustrated.

Even more so if the cause was because you weren’t eating or sleeping like his schedule demanded.

Donnie keeps an eye on you the entire time. He doesn’t want you to get worse.

Robs a pharmacy to get you prescription medicine if you need it. He has no problem forcing you to take it either.

Moves his work to his laptop in his room instead of being in his lab. He wants to be near you in case you need him.

Gets frustrated when you’re too stubborn to let him help. He’s not beyond strapping you down to make you eat or drink. He wants you to get better so he can go back to ‘normal’. He doesn’t like not being able to keep you by his side in the lab.

Pays more attention to you. He doesn’t let you out of his sight. Despite his ‘bad boy image’, he’s really worried. Especially since he most likely could have prevented this in some way. He’ll just be more stern next time.

Raph:

Gets really worried. He has never dealt with a human being sick before, and you’re his human, which makes it worse. You’re his responsibility, his lover. You being sick just makes him worried.

Is constantly checking with Donnie and Leo to make sure he’s doing things right by you. He won’t let them see you, of course, but he does get advice. He wants to take care of you himself.

Pretty much treats you as if you’re dying. You’re weak and fragile, this just proves it. He can’t let you try and heal without his help, you’d just shrivel up. But not on Raph’s watch.

He’s constantly bringing you your medicine. He gets upset if you don’t take it. He tries to play nice for a while, but then gives up and forces you. He can’t have you getting worse after all.

Panics at every cough and sneeze. He knows it’s something simple, but he’s still worried he might do something wrong that causes you to get worse. He couldn’t bear it if something happened to you and it was his fault.

Keeps close to you. For once, he ignores patrol and most training. He only does bicep curls in his room since he refuses to leave your side.

Gets mad at his brothers if they bother you, either on accident or on purpose. Makes his brothers text him if they need him since he doesn’t want you to wake up. Raph yells at them if they mess up. He’s stressed and fed up with them not respecting your rest.

Pretends the reason you’re fighting him is because you’re sick and not because you don’t want him around you.

Leo:

Is ecstatic now that you have to rely on him even more. You’re sick. It hurts to move, and you feel really bad. It’s the perfect opportunity for Leo to dote on you with minimal backlash.

He knows pretty quickly what’s wrong and gets the appropriate medicine. As much as he enjoys your reliance, he doesn’t want you to be sick forever. He is still worried after all. He’s just not too scared.

You have him to take care of you after all! There’s nothing to fear.

Acts very sickeningly sweet the entire time. He pretends all of your complaints are just you being delirious from the fever, or you headache messing with your thoughts.

If it persists…. He can always deal with it when you’re not in such a fragile state.

Makes you food himself. He can make pretty good soups and stews, plus, he would despise having Mikey technically be assisting. It’s his job to take care of you, and he will even if it kills him. Or some random passerby.

Actually keeps you decently comfortable. Despite being obnoxious and slightly scary the entire time, he knows what he’s doing. Your legs are propped up and a movie is almost always playing. He even lets you choose what’s playing sometimes.

Absolutely treats you like you’re unable to function. He won’t let you leave the bed unless for the bathroom. He likes babying you during this. It makes him feel more in control.

He almost makes it like a game. The more you protest the way he treats you, the worse he gets. He goes from baby talking to hourly cuddles to ‘keep morale high’.

He doesn’t care how far he has to go. He knows you’ll get better. Might as well enjoy it while it lasts.

Unofficial Guide to Yuichi Usagi's Friends and Family

This is for the fanfic readers who want to read about Leoichi but aren't as familiar with Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles. Note that I'm not a diehard fan but I did watch the two seasons so here are my thoughts.

This post is also spoiler-y to the show and have referneces to the Usagi Yojimbo comics.

Gen

Samurai Rabbit's Gen vs Usagi Yojimbo's Gen

Samurai Rabbit's Gen is based on Usagi Yojimbo's Gen. UY Gen is a self-proclaimed best friend of Miyamoto and constantly has him paying for the food and drinks every time they meet in their separate journeys.

UY Gen is a bounty hunter who knows how to wield a sword but refuses to follow the samurai code because of daddy issues (his dad chose to be faithful to the samurai code over providing a good life for his wife and kid).

More on Samurai Rabbit's Gen

SR Gen is also a bounty hunter but the similarity stops there. He was once from a rich family until his mother chose to heal a wanted convict. This made the people of Neo Edo mad at her which brought down her hospital.

Gen, upon growing up, had to make the hard decision to sell their mansion to the shogun and live his life as a bounty hunter.

Similar to rottmnt Raph, he's the oldest brother and carries that energy to his friends. He has a sister, Yoshiko, who looks like him. But they both insist they look nothing alike.

Toshiko is more free-spirited than Gen, but in Gen's opinion, she's more reckless, which ends up with him cleaning up her mess.

They also have a family car called Ashibasha that is possessed by a yokai that enters into any neglected non-living object. They keep Ashibasha in slight disrepair since they got attached to the yokai possessing it.

Other Stuff I Can Remember about Samurai Rabbit's Gen

He fights with a pair of kaikishi weapon of studded metal clubs called kanabo. Its special abilities are not yet known.

He and his friends are all staying in his ancestral home that his sister bought back.

He's a hypochondriac who would overworry over a paper cut and is a frequent patient of the Neo Edo hospital (which used to belong to their mother) run by three Shiba Inus who like to stay silly despite the horrors.

He's also a germaphobe and one of his greatest challenges against the Machine is going through the sewer part of their ship.

Aside from being a bounty hunter, he's also a sign spinner.

He and his sister has a background on fixing mech.

He sometimes is the advisor to Usagi's naïveté. Like telling Usagi to read the situation first in their first meeting or when he told him that the birthday venue for Kitsune should be something she likes because Usagi kept showing fighting venues.

He knows how to be intimidating for his advantage but is actually a big softie like following Usagi's idea to be their Kaiksihi sensei even when it's going badly so as not to hurt his feelings.

Kitsune

Samurai Rabbit's Kitsune vs Usagi Yojimbo's Kitsune

SR Kitsune is based on UY Kitsune. UY Kitsune is a street performer who robs her audience. A friendship was formed when Miyamoto stole back his wallet from her at the end of the chapter.

Despite being a righteous stick-in-the-mud, Miyamoto does have a sense of humor and doesn't seem to hold it against her when she robbed him of his money pouch that made him washed the dishes in a restaurant he ate in.

More on Samurai Rabbit's Kitsune

SR Kitsune is a street performer too. But instead of tricks with a fan and a toy top, she does puppeteering. She's also easygoing and has the tendency to make casual remarks about her life that ranges from zany to kind of concerning.

Like never having a birthday party in her life because she's an orphan, or that her childhood friend is a puff of gas that smells of fermented soybeans that she assumes is a ghost.

Similar to Mikey, she's just as playful and carries an energy of lightheartedness. She's the glue that holds Chizu with the others while Chizu is busy being the leader of the Neko ninja clan.

Other Stuff I Can Remember about Samurai Rabbit's Kitsune

She fights with kaikishi weapons which is a pair of bladed fans called Tessen. Its special abilities is not yet known aside from being able to return to her like a boomerang when thrown.

Has gay energy with Chizu.

She has a habit of stealing stuff but is trying to rein it in since she has her friends now.

Became sisters with a deadly alien ai that adapted its personality to her own. Her little sister is named Kiyoko. In the Usagi Yojimbo comics, Kitsune also has adopted a street orphan named Kiyoko whom she taught how to steal stuff.

Able to pilot a giant mech because of her puppeteering skills. Someone give that girl a gundam.

Chizu

Samurai Rabbit's Chizu vs Usagi Yojimbo's Chizu

Yuichi's Chizu is based on another character in the Usagi Yojimbo comics. Miyamoto's Chizu is also a ninja. But Chizu's brother, Shingen, got to know and work together with Miyamoto first.

I'm not yet finished with the comics, but all I know is that Chizu's brother died but she has heard of the samurai that he has worked with.

She has trouble with the ninja clan accepting her as their leader, and at one point was told by another ninja leading the clan to marry him so that the ninjas would take her authority more seriously. She refused.

In the end, the other ninja died after he tried to kill her to overthrow her. She then forced a kiss on Miyamoto as thanks or something and then left. (Seriously, I can count three female characters that forced a kiss on Miyamoto.) Chizu is a possible love interest for Miyamoto in the series.

I haven't finished the comics. But after a quick scan in Wiki, I find out she also fails to lead her clan and became a fugitive.

More on Samurai Rabbit's Chizu

SR Chizu has something like a mother complex but a third secret thing with Neko ninja crew leader Lady Fuwa. She was kidnapped as a baby by Lady Fuwa and was trained to be a weapon alongside other cat orphans.

So she kinda has a "You raised us but you kidnapped us. You destroyed our childhood for your gain but I wouldn't be here if not for you. You lie and cheat and backstab including me but I don't want to kill you" complicated thing with her.

Despite ninjas being famous for deception, she's the most strait-laced character in the group.

She tried to be loyal to Lady Fuwa. But Yuichi, Gen, and Kitsune reminded her of her childhood friend that Lady Fuwa took away so that Chizu wouldn't have any other bonds but her. It was Kitsune who was most hurt by her betrayal and Chizu made every effort to make it up to her.

Similar to rottmnt Donnie, she has a dry sense of humor. But again, that's where the similarity stops. If Donnie has evil-scientist-vibes, I think Chizu needs to be reminded to get loose sometimes. Well, at least Kitsune's there to remind her.

She really tried to lead the clan to no crimes but she has so much to learn first. Her clan, with the exception of one who was still loyal to her, turned on her in favor of Lady Fuwa.

Other Stuff I Can Remember about Samurai Rabbit's Chizu

Chizu fights with a kaiksihi weapon bow and arrow, along with her ninja gear of throwing stars and wrist-mounted crossbows. She's also familiar on how to use the naginata (it's like the Japanese version of a polearm).

Is ship-teased with Usagi but it's probably a callback on the Usagi Yojimbo comics.

Has gay energy with Kitsune.

Is looked up to by Hana and the other ninja kittens.

Tetsujin

Based on a sunbear, Tetsujin is the last warrior and guardian of the mystical ki-stone aka Kaikishi warrior. He's the tech guy of the group and his form became that of a sci-fi ghost because of the ki-stone.

He and Lady Fuwa used to be together (which neither Usagi, Gen, Kitsune nor Chizu wants to hear about), but it turned out Lady Fuwa was just using him.

Yuichi Usagi's Aunt

Usagi's Aunt's name is not yet known despite two seasons. She's not based on the Usagi Yojimbo comics. She taught Usagi everything he knows about sword fighting.

Although there was an implication of war a long time ago, judging by Usagi's aunt's leg and ear prosthetics, and that Usagi's parents are nowhere to be seen, there doesn't seem to be any samurais in Neo Edo.

Did She Ever Give Usagi Formal Training on How to be a Samurai? I don't know.

I'm not sure if she has formally taught him how to be a samurai, aside from sword fighting, such as the samurais' philosophies, virtues, and principles. But Usagi once quoted her words about protecting those who need to be protected. So it's possible.

But unlike Miyamoto Usagi, Yuichi Usagi didn't follow the traditional path of being a samurai:

Miyamoto received his sword, Willowbranch, when he was acknowledged by his lord and future master, Lord Mifune, upon proving himself in a tournament.

For Yuichi Usagi, he was given his Aunt's sword, Edgewing, when he wanted to go out to the city. In the Usagi Yojimbo comics, the sword of a samurai is his soul. But it doesn't seem to be the case for Edgewing.

So maybe it's more informal? Since Yuichi Usagi seems to be the only samurai around, the samurai tradition may have become obsolete by the time Yuichi Usagi became Miyamoto Usagi's thousand-year descendant. Similar to how the samurai class was abolished in the late 1860s. But that's just my assumptions.

Did They Pass Down Katsuichi's Unique Style of Swordfighitng? I don't know either.

It is Katsuichi, Miyamoto's sensei, whom Miyamoto learned the way of the sword that had made him a great samurai. But it is not yet confirmed if Usagi's aunt learned the same style.

How does the Yuichi Line Connect to Miyamoto Usago? I don't know that either.

While Miyamoto Usagi is acknowledged as their ancestor, it didn't say in the show if Usagi and his Aunt came from the line of Miyamoto's paternal cousin, Yamamoto Yukichi, or from a descendant of (surname unknown) Jotaro, Miyamoto's son that was raised by his childhood love, Mariko, and childhood rival, Kenichi.

Hana and the other Ninja Orphan Kittens

In the Samurai Rabbit series, Hana and the other orphan ninjas are basically child soldiers. Chizu and Usagi rescued them and the orphans now lived a peaceful life with Usagi's aunt.

They still have a long way to go as they're still trying to get used to civilian life without looting or destroying property (as they did when Usagi and Gen took them on an outing).

Karasu-Tengu

Karasu-Tengu is the Master Yokai of all martial arts and also a nature yokai who doesn't like how Neo Edo had become because it destroyed a forest for it to become so big.

She was going to seclude herself into the deeper parts of the forests to protect and live in it. But Usagi figured out where to find her. She tried to shoo him away like how one would be whacking a slipper after a bug, Usagi fights her as he asks for her to be his sensei.

In the end, Usagi proved himself worthy, and they make a funny pair by how small and harmless Usagi looks like next to her -similar to Miaymoto and his sensei.

Samurai Rabbit has a lot of references to the Usagi Yojimbo comics with more characters. But this post is long enough.

[adasknife]

another ada x reader and leon x reader that i will probably write if i'm not lazy. but anyways, ada and reader had been working as mercenaries for the longest time. reader is tired and wants to leave while ada sees as an... obligation. reader is completely honest with their thoughts of this line of work while ada isn't. so, during raccoon city- the job was simple enough but not to survive. ada needed a double pair of hands.

so, that's when leon sees two people claiming to be fbi. reader is sympathizing towards leon because them can push him away like that. while ada is a bit more colder. so, when leon takes the gun wound for ada, they both help him and ada tells them that they need to finish the mission. but reader shakes their head. leon is innocent in this.

the couple's first argument comes in but ends as ada goes to get annette. reader stays with leon. when leon wakes up, reader immediately goes to get their girlfriend. that's when leon and reader begin to work together. when they find ada down there, reader quickly panicked- they didn't have the hacking machine like ada so... more working with leon. during this time, reader explains to him how to deal with the creatures of the sewers.

when they save ada, reader now checks on their girl and helps ada. when they go to the labs, reader is determined to now finish this mission. they have a plan to run away with ada but ada doesn't want reader to get hurt so she tells leon to go. they are temporarily alone and reader kisses ada, "he can handle himself." ada whispered, "he can't." reader whispered back. "he is stupid. he believed we were fbi agents."

ada sighed softly, "go help him then." reader kissed ada again, "love you."

and there goes reader helping leon again.

then, that's when shit goes bad. annette tells leon that ada and reader are mercenary. reader sighed, it was going to hard to explain this.

blah, blah, ada comes in demanding the virus and expected reader to help her. but reader shook their head. "ada, we can stop." but no ada says no. ada is dangling now and reader is crying not wanting to lose their girlfriend. once she fell, reader is alone. then, all they has is a stranger she just met. they attempt to escape and they made it. reader rested their head on leon's shoulder.

reader didn't expect to get caught by the government so quickly. "if you want to live, join us."

and they did. reader trained with leon and explained their backstory and now leon and reader slowly turned into friends. those six years pass and they turned into best friends who know how to fight together. they have their first mission together in spain, when they find ashley reader says that will clean up the mess so it'll be safer for ashley. that's when reader could tell someone was looking at them. ada isn't jealous of leon but she does hate him.

if leon wasn't there, ada and reader would've been still together. and leon is not making easy as he kept lowkey flirting with reader.

ada is trying to get their partner back by helping leon. but things are different now. reader is angry, "why didn't you tell me you are alive?" ada rolled her eyes. during spain, ada is disliking more and more the way leon and reader are with each other.

"we could've have a good life together, [ada's real name]. why didn't you want it?"

when the helicopter comes, ada looked at reader, "reader?"

reader shakes their head. now, it's their obligation to stay with the government or who knows what will happen. they would've betrayed both the mercenary life and the government life- ada looks down. reader was unaware that ada was also forced to be a mercenary and reader was... reader was all ada had.

during the years, ada and leon are petty towards each other if they have mission when they have to talk together. ada still hates leon. she hates him so much. and she hates how reader now holds his hand when they are nervous. ada can't do nothing as they slowly fall in love with each other. why?

maybe it's the guilt- reader gave them an option twelve years ago and ada didn't accept it. ada could've been an agent with them... they could have been safe.

So this is very heavily based off of the Adopted Mikey Au and the Adopted Donnie Au done by @tblsomedoodles so if you don't know the basics that would be a great place to start. (They also gave me permission to write these headcannons to thank you again!!!!).

Basically, I was at work, and absently thinking about their Adopted Aus, and thought, "who would adopt R!Leo (otherwise listed as Blue) if he went missing in another dimension?" And first some reason the first person that popped into my head was 2012 Donatello, so this is that train wreck.

Keep in mind that Blue is, like, 3-4 yr. old in this au, and happened to get sent to the 2012 universe after being attacked in the sewers of his own dimension and doesn't go back to his home dimension until right before the Rise show starts.

Purple is R!Leo's comfort color (since it reminds him of his twin) so I can see Donnie being the first person he would latch onto.

-It helps that the reason Blue is in this universe would be a highly coincidentally timed portal on 2012 Donnie's end that transported both Leo and the mutant attacking him to the sewers nearby

Donnie goes to investigate the energy surge that happened during the fight and finds Blue, saving him from either the mutant that had been attacking him prior to the portal or the krang who might have been the reason for the portal in the first place, haven't decided yet. Donnie takes him home to patch him up, and gets imprinted on by a very lost, confused, and scared Blue who just wants his twin but hey this stranger is wearing Purple's colors so he must nice, right?

Blue obviously gets most of his sense of humor and energy from Uncle Mikey. They love to skateboard together and play pranks, usually involving a lot of messes to clean up. Both get into food competitions, where whoever can throw together the weirdest food combination and eat it without throwing up wins (Donnie always gets upset when they do that though, worried about Blue's health).

Uncle Raph is probably (read definitely) the most protective of the uncles, and even though he isn't the sensei, he still helps teach Blue how to fight. He'll introduce him to Chompy and show him to use the pinball machine, and if anyone accused Raph of going soft he'd slap their head then go get Blue for their scheduled nap (because Blue will only sleep if someone else is there). Blue likes that Raph is so big, because it reminds him of Red (even if Raph is bigger than he remembers Red being), and naps with him are the best (but he'll never tell his dad that). If I do include the fact that Blue gets plushies that remind him of his brothers like @tblsomedoodles did in their au, they were made/knitted by Raph (once again, something he'll never admit, he just claims he found them randomly)

Uncle Leo, of course, is the sensei, but they still interact outside of training. Out of all the uncles, Blue probably looks up to Leo the most, resulting in another "Splinter Junior" situation, but between Leos, and less copy but no less "hero worship." Leo is like the Jupiter Jim or Captain Ryan of Blue's childhood. Leo will introduce Blue to Space Heroes, and the two will spend hours basically fan-boying over the show.

Obviously Blue is closest with his self-assigned dad, Donnie. Donnie is the reason that Blue gets so interested in medical practices and chemistry, and Donnie has a lot of practice (cough Mikey) with grabby hands in the lab, so he knows how to keep an eye on Blue while still working in a way that lets Blue stay in the lab during the day if he wants to. Blue thinks his dad is the coolest guy ever, being able to make whatever he wants (He built such a cool car! and Metalhead was awesome!) and fixing anything that breaks (like his toys). He learns sarcasm by watching his dad talk with Uncle Casey, and boy was that something that Donnie will always regret (second only to the fact that Casey also seemed to be trying to teach Blue how to flirt). (side note: this would be in a universe that did not emphasize a lot of romance. While all of that drama still happened when they were teenagers, the only couple that I MIGHT have as canon in the Au would be Raph/Mona, because it was the only ship that didn't have some kind of problematic background). When Blue decides that his dad hasn't slept enough, he'll go and sit on his lap, and just start to fall asleep. In an effort to make him comfortable, Donnie will try to move him to the bed, and when he tries to go back to work, Blue will latch onto his arm and refuse to let go, forcing him to stay "just until Blue falls asleep." Leo walks in ten minutes later to the father-son duo practically dead to the world on the bed. On the other hand, if Donnie doesn't want to be disturbed by anyone, Blue will make it his personal mission to keep the uncles out of the lab.

It's unclear when exactly Donnie became Blue's "dad," it just happened one day with Blue walking into the room, half-asleep, and asking his dad (by his now new title) if he had seen his blanket/plushies. Donnie, understandably, freaks out internally (and later externally) but can't deny that something in him was both happy and sad: happy because he had grown attached to the little tot; sad because he knew that a time would come when he would have to send him back home (dealing with alternates has left Donnie with the very real realization that this is probably a another little Leo, especially after hearing Blue talk about his brothers). Among the infinite possibilities of universes, though, that would take some time, so maybe it would be ok for the kid to call him that? He'd ask for advice from his brothers and April, and all of them, while equally cautious, would encourage him to let it happen because dangit they're attached too (although Leo would be the most hesitant, with his sense of responsibility).

I'd like to think that Blue learned Spanish by watching tv with April and Casey. Sure, he watches tv with his uncles too, but I can't see them watching anything that might have Spanish in them. I'm imagining that April and Casey were babysiting and both fell asleep with the tv on (thinking Blue was asleep too). Some Spanish drama came on and little Blue fell in love with the accent, so he started trying to copy it. Donnie caught on and set up a system to teach him some of the words instead of just copying the accent (he doesn't know spanish, but there are a lot of learning programs online he can hack into). It becomes a bonding experience between little Blue and the humans, since they take it upon themselves to help him learn whenever they babysit (April being more successful in these lessons than Casey).

Blue was seen as very athletic in Rise!, so I imagine that he fairly enjoys sports. Watching Casey play hockey probably kick started it, which evolved into skateboarding, basketball, baseball, football, etc. He couldn't play all of these a lot, but skateboarding and basketball (or at least shooting hoops) were fairly simple to set up and do constantly. He likes baseball and football simply for the fact that it gives him and excuse to throw a ball and run around a lot, but he doesn't play them often and prefers the other two. His uncles help set up a basketball hoop in the lair for one of his birthdays, and all he did for the next week was shoot hoops.

He thinks April is cool. Leo may be Blue's personal hero, but April is a SUPER hero. She had powers and a cool outfit, and in Blue's mind that's all he needed to label his new favorite aunt as an honest to goodness superhero (followed later by Mikey's alter-ego Turflytle). He's always following her around when she visits the lair and trying to get her to make him "fly."

Instead of the lair being attacked by the mutant/yokai that tried to kidnap and eat Blue, I imagine that the event that triggers Blue's return to his original world involving the Krang. The Krang attacked the lair or there was an attack outside somewhere that Blue snuck out and got stuck in, but a Krang would attempt to drag Blue through the portal to use as bait or leverage, and Blue's ninpo messed with the portal and sent him home (without the Krang for some reason, idk its fanfiction so fanon magic). He returns to the same place where he disappeared in his world, not that he remembers that that is where he left, and instead of Tello or Angie finding him, it would be Raphie (because I'm trying not to be too similar to the original Adopted AU, no more than I already am). The rest of the Rise show continues as normal.

Maybe if I get more inspiration I'll do some headcannons for when R!Leo reconnects with his family in the 12 dimension, but for now this is all I can think of.

Jasmine's Next supply Drop

She can't fix everything Maverick is worried about, but she can at least try to ease her burden

A couple hundred gallons of bleach (can be used to purify water)

20 solar-powered desalination machines, as well as a couple dozen copies on how to make their own out of the meagre "supplies" (trash) they get on the Isle

5 crates of high-calorie emergency rations (3600 calories per bar, each bar the size of a pop-tart but twice as thick)

10 crates of assorted nuts, seeds, jerkeys, rice, and other easily-stored nonperishable.

10,000 pounds of flour (100 100-lb bags)

3 crates milk power

3 crates powdered eggs

5 crates baby formula

5 crates peanut butter

50 cameras with solar-powered chargers

Supplies and instructions to build ~20 medium hydropower generators, promises to send more if the generators work

200 fuel cubes for starting fires and 100 books of matches

Several very thick books (all copies of the same book) written by Aladdin, giving them advice for doing their distribution covertly and escaping when things go south.

Several books from Kuzco about creating irrigation canals and long-standing roads

Several books on creating and maintaining a hydroponics system, as well as 25 bags of uncursed soil and several dozen packets of seeds

A book of sigils, circles, and runes from Adam Constantine, and how to use each one to protect possible distribution centres from unwanted company

While there's not much that can be done about the guards, they gave Maverick a small book of tricks to keep fae like Maleficent or Twisted Neverfay contained in a certain area

4 large church bells blessed by a Catholic priest (he was absolutely delighted to be part of inconveniencing Maleficent, as he's been a victim of that hundred-year sleep,) as well as 8 small-ish ones

A couple dozen books on creating infrastructure (sewers, plumbing, electric grid, bridges, roads, telecommunication, water supply, etc.) They're hard to build now but it's better they already know what they're doing before they actually have to, as Maverick and the others pretty stubbornly insist on staying on the Isle after everything and seeing if they can make it work without be constantly sabotaged

Some tips on how to figure out what was wrong with their water supplies (rivers, lakes, etc,) so that Jasmine could start working with them to clean up the pollution in their water.

Veterinary rabies vaccines, five samples for every animal that can be vaccinated for rabies

Maverick is still preparing for a worst case scenario ("I expect the worst, so I prepare for the worst, so when the worst happens, I'm ready" and all that,) but she thinks, at the very least, these supplies and books can help them put it off or at least slow how rapidly it progresses. Jasmine is also considering sending livestock but, considering how nervous Maverick got about the idea (one of the cows had tried to attack Mordred and she is traumatized,) decided to put it off for a while to give the Isle time to recover from the idea of rabid cows.

And she's doubling, tripling, her efforts to get at least civilians off of the Isle. She can't take too many at once, knowing she would run the risk of collapsing the new systems she'd put in place, but she's trying. They're getting the children off first, because they're the ones who will be hit hardest by malnutrition and starvation, but the adults will follow as quickly as possible. Hopefully, by the time Beast realizes people are disappearing from the Isle at an alarming rate, they'll have at least gotten a half of the Isle's population evacuated. That'll make the lack of supplies easier on those who remain.

They're putting major plans in place to prevent or at least improve the future Maverick saw. And Jasmine is already drawing up plans for how she's going to make this all legal.
