Sympathetic Ectoplasm Collection

The following is a method that can be used to collect ectoplasm from a graveyard that you have access to. It requires a canning jar with seal and lid, a handful of soil from the graveyard in question and a small piece of animal bone. The graveyard soil should be collected with the proper respect and should also be payed for. Since I live in Canada and work with Irish deities most often, I pay with a Canadian dime. Displaying the image of the Bluenose it creates a connection with the Irish psychopomp deity Manannan mac Lir who uses his ship to ferry souls to the Blessed Isles.

Now place both the graveyard soil and the piece of animal bone in the jar. Make sure that the piece of bone is buried in the earth. Next seal the canning jar tight and place it it in a dark location without exposure to daylight. Then wait until after the next full moon to open the jar. The light of the full moon has a pulling effect on ectoplasm and draws it from the bodies in burial places. Normally it would dissipate into the atmosphere or be absorbed by the spirits which inhabit such locations. The jar creates a sympathetic link to the burial location, essentially creating a small graveyard within the container. The same process happens within the jar but here the ectoplasm is trapped and can neither dissipate or be utilized by local spirits.

The trapped ectoplasm can be used in a number of ways. If you are a medium or spirit-worker capable of bringing forth the spirits of the dead, it can be used to strengthen or refresh them after they help you. If you are a medium who is capable of manifesting spirits using your own ectoplasm, it can be used to replace any which has been lost for various reasons. Advanced necromancers will find with enough training that they can use it to help treat dehydration and fevers or create servitors from it. Experts in the field of necromancy will find that it is possible to infuse it into objects they possess enabling them to bring a spirit copy into underworlds or other spiritual realms. There are of course a myriad of other uses but these would require a separate post.

Unlocking the Secrets: A Comprehensive Guide to Growing Lychee Trees

In the realm of exotic fruits, lychee holds a special place. Its delicate, translucent flesh encapsulates a burst of sweet, floral flavor, making it a prized delicacy across the globe. But have you ever considered cultivating your own lychee tree? With the right knowledge and dedication, you can turn your garden into a haven for this tropical gem. In this comprehensive guide, we'll delve into the step-by-step process of preparing and nurturing a flourishing lychee tree, unlocking the secrets to success.

Step 1: Choosing the Right Variety

Before embarking on your lychee-growing journey, it's crucial to select the right variety for your climate and growing conditions. Lychee trees thrive in subtropical to tropical climates, preferring warm temperatures and high humidity. Common varieties include Brewster, Emperor, and Mauritius. Research local nurseries or reputable online suppliers to find a suitable cultivar that aligns with your region's climate.

Step 2: Selecting the Ideal Location

Once you've chosen your lychee variety, it's time to select the perfect spot for planting. Lychee trees require ample sunlight, preferably in a location that receives full sun for most of the day. Additionally, they benefit from protection against strong winds, which can damage delicate branches and blossoms. Choose a well-draining location with fertile, loamy soil for optimal growth.

Step 3: Preparing the Soil

Prepare the planting site by amending the soil with organic matter, such as compost or well-rotted manure. This enriches the soil's fertility and improves drainage, ensuring that your lychee tree receives the essential nutrients it needs to thrive. Avoid soils with high clay content, as they can lead to waterlogged conditions, which are detrimental to lychee root health.

Step 4: Planting the Lychee Tree

Now that you've selected the perfect location and prepared the soil, it's time to plant your lychee tree. Dig a hole twice as wide and just as deep as the tree's root ball. Gently remove the tree from its container and place it in the center of the hole, ensuring that the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface. Backfill the hole with soil, firmly tamping it down to eliminate air pockets.

Step 5: Watering and Mulching

After planting, water your lychee tree thoroughly to settle the soil and provide much-needed moisture to the roots. Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent waterlogged conditions. Apply a layer of organic mulch, such as wood chips or shredded bark, around the base of the tree to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.

Step 6: Pruning and Training

Pruning plays a crucial role in shaping the growth of your lychee tree and promoting optimal fruit production. Begin by removing any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to encourage healthy growth and improve air circulation within the canopy. Train young trees by selectively pruning to establish a strong framework of scaffold branches that will support future fruit-bearing branches.

Step 7: Fertilizing the Lychee Tree

To ensure vigorous growth and abundant fruiting, fertilize your lychee tree regularly with a balanced fertilizer formulated for fruit trees. Apply fertilizer in early spring before new growth emerges, following the manufacturer's recommendations for dosage and application frequency. Avoid over-fertilization, as excessive nitrogen can lead to lush foliage growth at the expense of fruit production.

Step 8: Pest and Disease Management

Keep a vigilant eye out for common pests and diseases that can afflict lychee trees, such as aphids, scale insects, and fungal pathogens. Monitor your tree regularly for signs of infestation or disease, and promptly take appropriate measures to address any issues that arise. This may include applying insecticidal soap or horticultural oil for pest control, and fungicides for disease management.

Step 9: Pollination and Fruit Development

Lychee trees are typically self-pollinating, meaning they do not require cross-pollination from another tree to set fruit. However, bees and other pollinators can enhance fruit set and yield by aiding in the transfer of pollen between flowers. As flowers develop into small green fruit, thinning may be necessary to reduce competition and promote larger, higher-quality lychees.

Step 10: Harvesting and Enjoying the Fruits of Your Labor

Patience is key when it comes to harvesting lychees, as they require time to ripen fully on the tree for optimal flavor and sweetness. Wait until the fruit turns from green to vibrant red or pink, with a slightly soft texture, before picking. Carefully twist or clip the fruit from the stem, taking care not to damage surrounding branches or future fruiting sites. Enjoy your homegrown lychees fresh, or incorporate them into culinary delights such as fruit salads, desserts, and refreshing beverages.

FAQ

How long does it take for a lychee tree to bear fruit?

Answer: Lychee trees typically begin bearing fruit three to five years after planting, although this can vary depending on factors such as variety, growing conditions, and cultural practices. Be patient and provide proper care, and you'll be rewarded with a bountiful harvest in due time.

Do lychee trees require a lot of maintenance?

Answer: While lychee trees benefit from regular care and maintenance, they are relatively low-maintenance compared to some other fruit trees. Routine tasks such as watering, fertilizing, pruning, and pest management are essential for promoting healthy growth and fruit production but can be easily managed with proper planning and attention.

Can I grow lychee trees in containers?

Answer: Yes, it is possible to grow lychee trees in containers, provided they receive adequate sunlight, moisture, and nutrients. Choose a large container with drainage holes, use a well-draining potting mix, and provide regular care and maintenance to ensure the tree's health and productivity.

What are common pests and diseases that affect lychee trees?

Answer: Lychee trees are susceptible to pests such as aphids, scale insects, mites, and fruit flies, as well as diseases including anthracnose, root rot, and powdery mildew. Regular monitoring, proper cultural practices, and timely intervention can help mitigate pest and disease pressures and maintain tree health.

How often should I water my lychee tree?

Answer: Lychee trees prefer consistently moist soil, especially during the growing season and periods of active growth and fruit development. Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent waterlogged conditions and root rot.

When is the best time to plant a lychee tree?

Answer: The best time to plant a lychee tree is in early spring, after the danger of frost has passed and when the soil has begun to warm up. This allows the tree to establish roots and acclimate to its new environment before the onset of hot summer weather.

Can I grow lychee trees from seeds?

Answer: While it is possible to grow lychee trees from seeds, it's important to note that seed-grown trees may not necessarily produce fruit true to type and may take longer to mature and bear fruit compared to trees propagated from grafted or air-layered stock.

How tall do lychee trees typically grow?

Answer: Lychee trees can vary in size depending on factors such as variety, growing conditions, and cultural practices. In ideal conditions, they can reach heights of 30 to 40 feet, although they can be pruned to maintain a more manageable size for home gardens or orchards.

What is the best way to propagate lychee trees?

Answer: Lychee trees are commonly propagated via grafting or air layering, which ensures that the resulting trees inherit the desirable traits and characteristics of the parent plant. Grafted trees typically mature and bear fruit more quickly than those grown from seeds and are often preferred for commercial production.

How can I tell when lychees are ripe and ready to harvest?

Answer: Ripe lychees will exhibit vibrant red or pink coloration and have a slightly soft texture when gently squeezed. Additionally, the skin may begin to crack or split open near the stem end. Avoid harvesting lychees when they are still green, as they will not ripen further off the tree and may lack optimal flavor and sweetness.

"Scientists in Singapore have broken a long-standing limitation on the ability to generate electricity from flowing water, suggesting that another elemental force of nature could be leveraged for renewable electricity: rain.

With the simplest and smallest scale test setup, the team could power around 12 LED lightbulbs with simulated rain droplets flowing through a tube, but at scale, their method could generate meaningful amounts that could rival rooftop solar arrays.

Singapore experiences significant rainfall throughout the year, averaging 101 inches (2581 millimeters) of precipitation annually. The idea of generating electricity from such falling water is attractive, but the method has long been constrained by a principle called the Debye Length.

Nevertheless, the concept is possible because of a simple physical principle that charged entities on the surface of materials get nudged when they rub together—as true for water droplets as it is for a balloon rubbed against the hair on one’s head.

While this is true, the power values thus generated have been negligible, and electricity from flowing water has been limited to the driving of turbines in hydropower plants.

However, in a study published in the journal ACS Central Science, a team of physicists has found a way to break through the constraints of water’s Debye Length, and generate power from simulated rain.

“Water that falls through a vertical tube generates a substantial amount of electricity by using a specific pattern of water flow: plug flow,” says Siowling Soh, author of the study. “This plug flow pattern could allow rain energy to be harvested for generating clean and renewable electricity.”

The authors write in their study that in existing tests of the power production from water flows, pumps are always used to drive liquid through the small channels. But the pumps require so much energy to run that outputs are limited to miniscule amounts.

Instead, their setup to harness this plug flow pattern was scandalously simple. No moving parts or mechanisms of any kind were required. A simple plastic tube just 2 millimeters in diameter; a large plastic bottle; a small metallic needle. Water coming out of the bottle ran along the needle and bumped into the top section of the tube that had been cut in half, interrupting the water flow and allowing pockets of air to slide down the tube along with the water.

The air was the key to breaking through the limits set by the Debye Length, and key to the feasibility of electricity generation from water. Wires placed at the top of the tube and in the cup harvested the electricity.

The total generation rate of greater than 10% resulted in about 100 watts per square meter of tube. For context, a 100-watt solar panel can power an appliance as large as a blender or ceiling fan, charge a laptop, provide for several light bulbs, or even a Wi-Fi router.

Because the droplet speeds tested were much slower than rain, the researchers suggest that the real thing would provide even more than their tests, which were of course on a microscale."

4. What's an inside joke you have with your family or friends?

You know when you forget literally everything that's ever happened to you the moment someone asks you a question? Yeah that's me rn. I guess my picky eating has sort of become a little joke with my family (in the Wow Your Tastebuds Are Ridiculous, Anyway I Mad Two Types Of Rice To Accommodate That way rather than the dick way)

17. Name three things that make you happy

The moon, my cat, and creme eggs

25. Fave season and why

Winter! I love cold and wet and dark <3 I was actually talking a bit about winter with my dad earlier for minorly complicated reasons, but it's such a like...misrepresented season. There's this impression of winter as a barren and freezing nothingness, but it's a season of bundling up warm with your loved ones and indulgence. There are trees whose branches streak across the sky and there are trees of the deepest green that keep tiny creatures safe within their embrace. There are bright red berries nestled in green holly that sustain robin redbreast as he stays by our side through the darkest nights. Mother bears nurse their newborn cubs through hibernation so that they can run in spring. I find comfort in the sharp edges and quiet darkness of winter, but that is far from the totality of the season

𝐬𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐫𝐚.

- big on acts of service BUT IS HORRIBLE AT HIDING HOW MUCH HE LIKES DOING STUFF FOR YOU. hear me out. he’d be the one opening doors for you, covering your head with his jacket when it’s raining outside (he’s getting soaked and you nag him about getting sick)…. all that. He’s blushing profusely. When you smile up at him, he immediately smiles back but then he claps a hand over his mouth to hide it. Give him time ok he’ll come around.

- he loves you. of course that’s a given because you’re his lover BUT BUT. he love LOVES you. like a lot. so much that it’s kind of painful, you know what I mean? Like he wants to express it so friggin bad, but he doesn’t know how to. His words escape him, he panics when he makes a move. He’s spent many a night just staring down at you with the most lovestruck eyes while you’re fast asleep. Tears falling from his eyes because he’s so happy you chose HIM of all people. He never thought he’d be worthy of being loved, of being trusted, of being CONSIDERED. You gave all of that to him and more. GOD he loves you.

- is super conflicted about PDA lol sometimes he wants to hold your hand in public, kiss you all over, hug you, but god damn it he’s blushing from head to toe whenever he’s around you. He’s got the cuteness aggression fever but he can’t let it ouuuttttt 🗣️🗣️🗣️

𝐮𝐦𝐞.

- EVERYTHING IS HIS LOVE LANGUAGE. Like, if you’re not into physical touch, he’d do something else for you. If you’re not the acts of service type and you wanna do stuff yourself, that’s cool too!!! He can manage!!!! Although he’d want to help you out so bad but…. He’s cheering on you from the sidelines. On that note, he’s your biggest (and loudest) cheerleader! You’d have an achievement and no matter how small or big it is, his friends and neighbors and the random strangers he passes by know about it and how amazing you are. BECAUSE YOU ARE.

- loves it when you help him out in the garden hehehe loves it extra if you know how to take care of the veggies and fruits hehehehe like, you’d be tending to the potted plants and he’s checking for aphids on the other side of the garden. You’re actively pruning the basil the right way so it’d grow bushier, you’re hand pollinating the pumpkins, you even suggested on doing the three sisters method so you’d yield more harvest in the coming months. He may or may not have begged you to marry him once or fifty times every time he’s caught you doing that. (Ofc you’ve said yes once or fifty times lol)

- WORST CUTENESS AGGRESSION FEVER SUFFERER. You cannot convince me otherwise. You’d be doing the most mundane things, walking down the road with him, lounging on the couch with your belly out and body contorted in the most unattractive position, just STANDING THERE….. he’s immediately on you, peppering kisses everywhere his lips can reach, hugging you so close, rubbing his face all over youdbjfjdndnnd CUTENESS AGGRESSION IS UMEMIYA AND UMEMIYA IS CUTENESS AGGRESSION. If he could he’d bite you. He has btw. On multiple occasions. The tiniest, softest chomp though.

- never fails to tell you how much he loves you. On the daily, on the fly, every time he meets your eyes. “I love you” so easily slips from his lips, he expresses it so easily but it never loses its meaning with him. He means it every time he utters those three words. You can feel it too. Just… don’t ask him to elaborate because he’d drop anything he’s doing just to explain to you as to how and why and what and where and—uh oh is he crying?????

𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐄 𝐁𝐎𝐘𝐅𝐈𝐄𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐔𝐓.

𝐤𝐚𝐣𝐢.

- WOULD MAKE PLAYLISTS FOR YOU. Hear me out again. He’s horrible with words ok? Like he’s thorny. He’d say the meanest things accidentally sometimes without him realizing that. So, he makes playlists for you. He’s made one for himself when he first realized he had a crush on you, btw. Don’t tell him I told you. Notice how he’s had his headphones on his head whenever you first started talking to him? Yeah he was listening to it when he saw you passing by. Best music taste btw. Listens to all genres too like he doesn’t discriminate. Get him started on some hardcore bands though, he’s yapping. Eyebrows furrowed. (He likes rowdy places but doesn’t get rowdy? Canonically too? Yeah the man’s outside the pit pushing the crowdkillers away from you. CATCH HIM IN THE PIT THOUGH OH MY GOD THAT’S A CROWDKILLER RIGHT THERE.) on that note, he loves going to gigs with you. You wanna go check a local band? He’s immediately got ticket stubs for their next gig.

- another acts of service guy. You see those tiktoks of girls grabbing something under the table and the guy holding the corner of the table so she wouldn’t accidentally hit it? Or like when you got full hands and you can’t go to open the door, the guy’s materialized beside you, opening it for you? Yeah that’s him. Real subtle about it though. Don’t bring attention to it pls unless you want him to not look at you for a couple of minutes (he’s blushing pls be patient)

- the type to nag at you when you get hurt. Man oh MAN does he nag. He’s gone through one too many fights already so he knows how to patch himself up real nice. But when YOU get hurt, he’s immediately digging through his first aid kit, cleaning your wound and patching you up while nagging you to be more careful next time, what if he wasn’t around to help, what if this what if that grumble grumble. He’s got his lollipop in his mouth btw. Pull it out for a second and GIVE HIM THE BIGGEST SMOOCH TO SHUT HIM UP PLEASE. Sweetest kisses. Both literally and figuratively 🥹

𝐬𝐮𝐨.

- GENTLEMAN GENTLEMAN GENTLEMAN. Oh my god if you don’t want attention drawn to the both of you, never bring Suo out in public!!!!!!!! He does the most for you so effortlessly, so beautifully, people swoon and get jealous because of it. The type to give you flowers too. Not just on special occasions too. And not just flowers in a bouquet. No. The flowers are already arranged in a vase so you wouldn’t have to worry about grabbing a vase yourself. Goodness your normal dates would seem so extravagant when he’s around. You’d be eating at a McDonald’s and you’re looking over at your lover and he looks so dashing and he smells so good and he’s got the softest smile anfjdjjdj UGHHHHHH!!!!!! But if you’re not into flowers, he’d find some other way to express his love for you in a different way. Whatever you’re comfortable with, he’s down for.

- big tease. He likes seeing you squirm and pout when he’s playing a little prank on you. You swear you can see a slight blush on his cheeks when you pout but it’s so so subtle you think it’s the lighting.

- is not afraid to express how much he absolutely LOVES you. If you need reassurance, he’s pulling you to the side to talk about it. If you need him to kiss you more, oh he’s doing THAT AND MORE. If you’re the jealous type, even better. He’s smooching you in front of the person you think is flirting with him. But if you’re not into that intense stuff, he’s pulling you into the conversation, keeping a hand on your waist and looking over to you for an extra opinion. Lays on the “dove”, “my love”, “my sweet”, “my heart”, T H I C K . And I fucking mean THICK.

𝐤𝐢𝐫𝐲𝐮.

- *dreamy sigh* a fucking dreamboat is what he is. You could never, EVER go wrong with kiryu, man. I swear. A gentleman through and through. Takes you on spontaneous dates, likes going to arcades with you and winning you the biggest plushie!!!! (he’s really good at it), would take you on perfume dates (HE SMELLS GOOD CANONICALLY UGH), would even do your make up for you. Ugh. UGH. He’d be the best partner you could ever ask for. Y’know those perfect couples on tiktok? That’s you and him. But it’s all genuine, baby. That’s just how he loves.

- big on matching outfits. But not the blatant matching ones, no. Like, same color palettes, same textures, YES. YES. The outfit brainstorming is part of your dates too. He’d let you borrow his clothes if you want, he’d even let you spritz some of his most expensive perfumes 😭!!!!

- SKINCARE DATES TOO. WOAH WOAH WOAH. like, he has a AM/PM routine but he'd love to do it with you! he'd suggest all the best stuff for your skin, check if your skin's more on the dry side, oily side, yes. your man knows his shit and it SHOWS. your skin's practically glowing when you're with him. boyfriend air doesn't exist.

- IF YOU NEED REASSURANCE AND A HYPEMAN HE IS YOUR FUCKING GUY I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. God he’d see you looking at yourself in the mirror, fussing over how you look and practically putting yourself down, his heart would break. Like, how could you not see how he sees you? He’s taking you in his arms and telling you everything he absolutely adores about you, how beautiful you are, showering you with praise on the sweetest most kiryu way possible. He’s peppering kisses along your tear streaked cheeks until you’re smiling again. “There’s that smile,” he says as he pulls away, cupping your face in his hands. Ugh he even has the most lovesick puppydog eyes for you. “I love you, alright? So much,” he kisses your forehead, “So, So much.” He whispers into your hairline. GOOOOODDDDDDD 🫂 and did I say HYPEMAN? I mean it. Do a little spin for him in your new clothes and he’s screaming and yelling and taking so much pictures of you!!!!! His instagram feed’s full of you, your couple photos, your dates… practically a fan account of your relationship. He loves you and he loves loving you!!!!!!!!! and if you're the jealous type, he'd be so patient with you. he'd reassure you to the moon and back!!! ofc since he's popular with girls, he'd do his best to reassure you that he only has his eyes on you and you alone.

- gaming nights with kiryu. Oh Gaming Nights With Kiryu please save me gaming nights with kiryu. He’s got a whole set up ready for the both of you, his PS5 hot and ready, snacks opened. It’s a special thing for the both of you too! He decorates his apartment in the theme of the game you’re both playing, horror game? His apartment looks like a horror house. Smash bros? BET. (He’ll be smashing you by the end of the night gehrhhrhehehehHgdhdhs). I know he’s got LED strips so he’s using that to his advantage too. Ok I’m getting carried away. Kiryu best partner best lover best everything.

𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞.

- *RIPS SHIRT OPEN LIKE A WEREWOLF GRGEGGRHEHE BARKING!!!!!* TOGAMEEEEE!!!!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ I am apologizing for this part, love. I’m gonna go hard.

- canonically doesn’t text. Only leaves you on read. Calling him though? CALLING HIM?? 🫠 he’s answering as soon as it rings. None of that “wait until the third ring” baloney. His baby’s calling. If he’s doing something before you called, HE’S DROPPING IT FOR YOU. And he answers in that deep voice of his and 🫠🫠🫠 sigh. You guys stay on the phone for hours. He’s the type to do things while he’s calling you too. If you’re away and he can’t be with you, he’d love it if you could stay on the phone with him for way longer too. Big on facetiming too. He’s fallen asleep with facetime on. You have a collection of screenshots of his pretty sleeping face. You’ve fallen asleep on facetime too. He doesn’t have as much screenshots though and he haaaates himself for it because he spends so much time just staring at you through his phone, smiling to himself like. FUCK he’s so in love with you!!!!! YOU!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ plus he’s got nervous shaky hands so hehe first time you guys facetimed you weren’t a couple yet. You fell asleep and he tried taking a screenshot and dropped his phone. The sound woke you up lol you give him shit about that moment sometimes, teasing him. He’s a blushing mess, elbowing you gently so you’d stop.

- AWKWARD TOGAME WHEN YOU GUYS FIRST DATED UGH SHIIIITTTTT!!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ he’s canonically bad with groups of people and people in general. Choji had to adopt him forcefully into shishitoren ok? So that translates so SO well to you and your relationship with him. He may or may not have (allegedly, for legal reasons) asked for romance advice from Choji. He may or may not have (again, allegedly) tried that yawning and stretching trick so he could rest his arm behind you. No. Nope. Didn’t hear it from me.

- awkward and SHY togame when he made the first move on you!!!!!!! He had a ramune bottle in his hand because it was shaking so bad he couldn’t control it. You GAVE HIM HIS FIRST KISS DHHRHDHRRRRAAAAGHHH 🗣️🗣️🐺 you had to hold his other hand to stop it from trembling. Yours were too tbh hehe made him feel a bit better because you were just as nervous as he is.

- once you both are super into the relationship though, my goodness expect togame to be THE BEST PARTNER. See how he was with Choji? Did anything and everything to keep his smile? He’d do that for you too. Amp it up to a 100. His surprises are simple, never was one for grand gestures. But goodness you can feel the effort. Even employed some help from his old man pals at the community baths 🫠

- speaking of the old men, THEY WERE THE FIRST PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT HIS CRUSH ON YOU!!!!! Like, they were doting on togame when he expressed he’s never felt this way for someone before, how he can feel his heart racing and his face heating up when you’re around. They knew he was in love with you before he knew for himself.

- OF COURSE THEY KNEW YOUUU. So when you wanted to get into a relationship with togame, knowing it’s serious now, you went out of your way to meet up with the group of old men!!!! There, you discovered that togame has been talking about you nonstop. They already loved you for him before you formally met!!!!! They gave you their collective blessing, of course. You both are their grandchildren in their eyes.

- togame CAN COOK. EXPECT HIM TO COOK FOR YOU CONSTANTLY. And if you can cook, EVEN BETTER. Cooking dates, farmer’s market dates, izakaya dates, GASTRONOMY! You often surprise each other with decorated lunch boxes.

- nap dates all the time. Like, when you’re not bumping uglies or cooking or bonding with your friends, you both are asleep in each other’s arms. He gives the best hugs too. Like, those hugs that just cover you, you know?

- obviously, he loves you. But god damn it he wants to scream it into the world!!!! With the way he treats you though, constantly worrying about you, being there at your beck and call, pressing kisses into the crown of your head whenever you’re next to each other, he doesn’t need to scream it or utter a single word. You can just see the love he has for you. Everyone knows it.

- has thought about marrying you a couple times already. The type to call you his spouse teasingly too just to see you blush. He cannot wait to call you that officially. If he were good at technology, he would definitely have a pinterest board ready lol
