˚꒰ pegging them for the first time {arcane preference}

╭・characters; jinx, vi, caitlyn, ekko, silco, viktor.

┊ warnings; nsfw, obviously. there's a link to a sex shop in each character, so be mindful of that if you click on it! afab reader.

╰・ a/n; i'm aware that these are dildos, not straps, but let's just pretend, for the sake of this hc. sorry for any typos. if you'd like to support me, here's my ko-fi.

| jinx

she's the one who suggests it

one morning while you two are talking about sex and things you's like to try out

"if you had a dick, that'd be so hot"

when you agree, she gets right into it

researches the best place to buy one and asks you about you favorite color and shape and stuff like that

whispers the dirtiest things in your ear

"i want you to fuck me until i can't walk"

shows up randomly with a huge package in hand

you open it and it's huge

huge huge

she got the biggest version she could

looks like a unicorn's horn, just less pointy

is so excited she forgot to buy lube, so it had to be put on hold for another day

but then the night came

she was splayed in the bed, legs up, her face glowing with excitement

you prep her and lube the dildo up, but she can't stop wiggling under you

"stop teasing me toots"

you enter her slowly, but she just can't help herself and she keeps trying to sink deeper

you don't want to hurt her, but she doesn't care

is sore for about a week

still asks you to fuck her silly all the time, but you need to look out for her because she can take it too far

rides you so fast you can barely keep up

melts after cumming a lot

her prefered aftercare is comfort food (a bunch of candy) and a fluffy blanket, with all the cuddles

| Vi

"i don't think you understand what you're asking for, kitty"

she uses the strap and other toys on you regularly, but it never crossed her mind that you'd be interested in that

takes some time to actually accept the idea, but eventually just thinks about it like 'you only live once'

acts all tough and flustered when you ask her to go strap-shopping with her

a brat tbh

in the end chooses one that doesn't look too much like an actual dildo and pays everything in a hurry

she's splayed in the bed, nervous as hell, and barely stretches the first time you try to prep her

she wasn't ready the first time

she feels like she'll get weaker if she let's go of control like that, also it's a bit of internalized misoginy

but after a night where you had her creaming her pants from how hot you looked riding her, she decided to try again

this time she's sitting on the edge of the bed, you kneeling in front of her, and she watches your every move

after preping her and stretching a little, you manage to push the tip in, and she throws herself back in the bed and wiggles her hips trying to get more friction

you just freeze

"please, kitty. don't make me beg"

you fuck her slowly, watching how se reacts, making sure she's comfortable and enjoying herself

when you start touching her clit though, she loses it

spasms her whole body, and as the strap hits her g-spot, it triggers a second orgasm

her brain turns into mush and she falls asleep right after, and doesn't even feel you cleaning her up and tucking her to bed

she asks you to use the strap whenever she feels vulnerable, weak or tired

it's good to feel taken care of

her favorite aftercare is cuddling, but she also appreciates it when you run her a bath

| Caitlyn

she wants to ask about it, but you're faster

"well, we can arrange that, love"

is both excited and shy about the whole thing

orders a custom strap for her, and shows you her idea to see what you think of it

when you two settle for a model, she finishes her order and awaits patiently

it's not lenghty, but it's thick, with a pointy and curvated head, a soft texture and a bunch of little balls

plus, it's a mix of pink and purple, so she thinks it's pretty

she had other toys, but she wanted something that would be yours too, to feel closer to you

so, she puts on a cute lingerie, preps herself and helps you put on the strap

she sits you back in the bed and lightly squeezes you throat, smirking at your whine

"easy there, love. let me guide you"

she places your hands on her hips and sinks down, riding you in a slow and deep way, almost not making a sound

then, you thrust upwards, and it's like something breaks in her head

she sits there, mouth open and eyes closed, holding on to your shoulders for dear life

bites down your shoulder as you fuck her silly, whining and moaning, until she sinks down completely and cums around the synthetic dick

it takes a while for you to realize that she squirted all over you, and even longer for her

you carry her to her bathroom and prepare a full bath for her, with scent and bubbles

she relaxes there as you clean up the place, and later she lets you brush her hair and make her a cup of warm tea

then you tell her what happened

"i did what?"

she blushes furiously, and apologises, but when you tell her how hot it was, she kisses your cheek, beaming with pride

takes you on her lap and you two fall asleep in a huge chair in her room, cuddled together

her favorite aftercare are a warm bubbly bath and pampering, +cuddling

| Ekko

you two are talking nonsense, just chatting

then the sex topic comes up

"i bet you can't last more than i can"

needless to say, you won

my boy can go a bunch of rounds, but he goes fast

then you said you wanted to fuck him with a strap he laughed it off, but then just got really flustered

"you for real babe?"

tries his best to hide his excitment, fails miserably

tells you to buy the strap and not tell him how it looks like, because he wants to be surprised, his only ask was that it wasn't too big, because he wasn't sure he could take it

you end up buying a model that would be easier to get inside him, in a small size, and custom it to be very comfortable and good for him

is actually fascinated by the whole process of preping his hole, and as you explain it all to him he just gets harder and harder

new turn on: you explaining things to him

he bends over in a table and closes his eyes, trying to relax

you just push into him and it hits all the right spots, he teaches your name to the neighbours

you just stay still and watch as he fucks himself, rutting his cock against the table and biting his own fist

he cums at least thrice that night

it's a common occurence from then on

looooves it when you fuck him hard and leave him with shaky legs

his favorite aftercare is cleaning up (usually too tired to bathe right away) and snacking, +watching something

it also becomes a common topic of conversation with his friends

"yo, have you ever been pegged before?"

| Silco

this bitch

you two are just hanging out, him working on some papers and you just reading

"have you ever though of pegging, my dear?"

you choke on air, eyes wide

he tells you how pleasurable it is and how good it makes him feel, how pretty you'd look with a huge cock attatched to you

you just nod and agree, because he's so close and he smells so good

he starts by fingering you and getting you wet, and then he leaves the room for a few minutes

turns out he'd already bought a strap for you, and had all the necessary things to be fucked

he ties your hands behind your back and puts the strap on you, taking off his clothes in the process

what happens next is the most erotic thing that's ever happened to you

he positions himself on top of the dildo, but doesn't actually sinks down, stroking his shaft in a lazy motion and stares at you

"who's a good toy?"

propusefully has you imobilized so he can fuck himself without your interference

you moan and whine but he just keeps riding you as he wishes, stroking himself and getting lost in the moment

you almost cum from the sight alone

he does cum, all over your face, and then he sets you free

pushes you to the wall and eats you out as if he's gonna die in five minutes

after finally letting you cum, you two fall asleep on the floor, shaky legs and all

his favorite aftercare is words of reassurance and physical affection

| Viktor

okay so viktor was bored one day and decided to test some joke projects

the hextech strp-on was the chosen one

so after projecting and building and tinkering, it was done

he didn't actually think it was gonna work, but it did

he just had to test it

then you came in his lab and he just had the perfect idea

cue you running back and forth bringing everything you two are going to use

he bends over and awaits, his ass bare and proud in front of you

he almost cums from your fingering alone, but tries to hild himself back because he has to pay attention to the strap

he's taking notes btw

tries so hard to pay attention and not doze off but your fingers just feel so good

then, after he's lubed up, you start fucking him with the strap

the hextech just enhances everything that he's feeling, and he can't get enough of it

the runes he choose do something else: they vibrate

oh boy

he get's overstimulated very quickly, especially after you start to jerk him off

when you prop his hips up a little, he cums automatically

hextech strap-on project: success

his favorite aftercare is being praised and being pampered (brush his hair and massage his hands, pls)

Description: daddy kink, body worship, a little orgasm denial.

It was a normal day at work for you, you came back home and decided to watch something. Suddenly you saw the preview of the movie "50 shades of grey", you were feeling horny that day but you couldn't ask chan for help. You guys were pretty shy about IT. So you played the movie. You became even more horny.

But you heard the door open. You.froze.

You turned your head back in horror. It was bangchan.

Both of you were now red. You both just started at each other for a while.

Bangchan: um what are you watching? (He knew the movie but was just pretending to be innocent)

Yn: oh.. I'm just watching umm fifty shades.

*But then you said something which you thought you'll never say.*

Yn: would you like to watch with me?

Chan smirked and dropped his coat on the floor and removed his shoes. He was now hugging you tightly.

You played the movie, there was dead silence as you both were really invested in the movie.

But then a sex scene came up.

You both looked at each other, staring hungrily, both craving each others touch.

Chan: baby, can we do it? (He said really shyly)

You simply nod. But all of a sudden his smile turned into a smirk

Chan: be ready to see the star's tonight babygirl.

He picked you up in his arms and carried you to your bedroom, you were blushing so bad that you were red.

He came near your face, he gently placed his lips on yours and slowly moved them, gradually increasing the pace. His lips were so soft and plump. Both of you moved in a perfect rythym. He then moved his hand from your waist to your breast, slowly massaging it, you moaned slightly. He took this opportunity and slipped his tongue in you. He explored every part of your mouth.

He tugged on your shirt signalling you to take it off. You sat up and removed your shirt and pants and returned to your original position.

He kissed you again but this time more passionately. He unclapsed your bra and throwed it somewhere. Your nipples were erect making him even more turned on. He took one of your buds in his mouth and sucked it. You were a moaning mess, he took his other hand and massaged the other breast. You were really enjoying this.

But then you flipped him over. He was shocked to see your bold move. You wasted no time and started to kiss and suck on his neck leaving hickies. He moned out loud.

Chan:ahh it feels go..o..od babbby.

You became even more confident and thought of taking it to the next level (aepsa fans? Lamo sorry) you placed your hand on his erection slowly moving it on his clothed core. You took of his pants and his member sprung out. You looked at him.

Yn: daddy is soooo big! (You said in a childish tone)

Bangchan was taken back, you felt the look in his eyes change from your baby to your daddy.

Chan: yes daddy is big and if you pleasure daddy nicely he will reward you too!

You immediately understood what he meant. You took your hand and runned it along his shaft and circled his tip. He moaned your name. You were pleased and then placed his tip in your mouth and started giving him kitty licks.

Chan: ohh baby don't tease daddy, you know he can be a very bad person too.

You took him in your mouth gently bobbing your head and sucking him like a monster.

Chan: ahh babby.... I... It feels g.ooddd ahh don't stop ... For fuck's sake.. don't stop

You felt he was about to release, but you took him out of your mouth.

Yn: daddy can i have you inside me?

Chan: yes babygirl, anything for my princess.

He 🎶switches the position with you🎶 (arianators any sorry again couldn't control).

He takes of your panty and throws it away. He reached over to the drawer and took out his wallet. He had a Condom in it (KIDS IT'S IMPORTANT)

He placed it on his shaft. And then placed his tip in your womenhood. You were already feeling pleasure.

Chan: are you sure about it?

Yn: yes daddy.

Chan wasted no time and pushed slowly giving time for you to adjust to his big size. He knew he was big. He looked at you. You nodded. He started to moving.

Chan: ahhh babe you are so tightt ahh taking me soo well.

Yn was just unable to understand anything chan was saying she was lost in pleasure, she was seeing star's. She felt a knot in her stomach.

Yn: ahh h mm dadddddy can you speed up please daddy, please?

(You begged)

Chan: sure why not baby.

Chan spead up his thrusts, evertime he went a little more harsh. He then started pounding in to you like an animal with no sense.

Yn: dadady I'm about too... About too cummmm.

Chan: hold it baby a little more, lets cum together.

And then both of you came. You felt his warm liquid inside of his condom. You both were panting and calming down from your high.

Chan: baby lets get you cleaned up shall we?

#25 please. "You're mine and I don't share."

Rating: T (but light)

Category: F/M

Fandom: Sherlock (BBC)

Relationship: Sherlock Holmes/Female Reader

Tags: Imagine, Headcanon, Sherlock has a crush, protective Sherlock, Greg does what he can, humour, teasing.

Words: 1117

Notes: Yeeeah thank you for asking! Here we go! I’m not a native, please, forvige my mistakes. Gif is not mine. I hope you’ll enjoy it

If someone had dared to ask to Sherlock Holmes if he was the jealous type, the Great Detective would have answered that, no, he wasn’t. At all. Sociopath, remember? He wasn’t able to feel jealousy. A complete stranger could have believed this enormous lie, or maybe a complete idiot. And even this hypothesis was wrong because Donovan and John (not the two brightest people in this world) were sitting in the back of a van with Sherlock, and they were both able to say there was a problem. The supposedly sociopath was straight, his fists curled up in balls on his tight, his jaw clenched, watching Y/N sat at a bar, smiling and sipping her drink, on the monitor.

Maybe some context would be interesting: five women had been killed, strangulated, during the last two weeks, they all wore fancy dresses, make-up and high heels. The autopsy had revealed they all had drunk, but not enough to be smashed, and there was no drug in their stomach. In addition, they all had an entrance ticket from the same nightclub in their purse. This case was childish, solved in less than a minute. And yet, Sherlock had taken it; now John was suspecting it was because Y/N had agreed to serve as a bait to pin the suspect instead of Donovan. He was almost sure of it since Sherlock had insisted for Lestrade going himself inside the nightclub with Y/N when the Police Detective hadn’t agreed that Sherlock goes there. “Not discrete enough” Lestrade had said… This his how the consulting Detective had ended watching his crush being wooed just under his nose. It was unbearable.

When he saw the third man in half an hour trying to buy a drink to Y/N, he knew his patience was seriously growing thinner.

“For God’s sake, Gary! Could you, please, stop these dumbasses from revolving around Y/N like the vultures they are?! You’re here to protect her, remember?”

A chuckle echoed in his headset.

“I can’t, Sherlock, it would be suspicious. Or I would have to pretend to be his boyfriend and…”

“Don’t. You. Dare.”

“Yes, it was what I thought.”

“Hum… Excuse me, gentlemen, but I’m perfectly able to take care of myself, thank you very much. Maybe we could focus on the task at hand?”

Crap, she heard them… Of course, she had, she also had a headset! How can I be so dumb when she’s involved? Not impressive, not impressive at all… Focus, Sherlock! FOCUS!

“Hey, Genius?”

“Mmh?”

“It was also very cute.”

Sherlock couldn’t decide if he was flushed because of his protective behaviour being exposed or because of… this. Or both. How do you want to focus with all these emotions inside him? Sociopath? My arse! Hell… He didn’t have time to try to answer to this question, because he heard Y/N again:

“Ok kitties, focus, the target is here!”

“Kitties?” Hum… Indeed, a young man, the cliché of the “handsome boy”, just arrived. He was blond, tall, thin, stuffed with charisma. As on clue, he headed straight to Y/N, who gave him a warm smile. No, no, it wouldn’t be possible!

“Hey there.”

“Hey.”

“Is this seat taken?”

“Nope.”

Sherlock couldn’t help but smile, she had popped the “p”, just like him.

“All alone, then?”

“I’m afraid so.”

“It’s a shame… How a pretty doll like you can be alone? Well, I don’t complain, lucky me!”

Was he serious? Did he just call her “doll”? Hum, no, it won’t be possible.

“Georges, do something!”

“Calm down, I can’t, not yet. I can’t arrest him just because he’s a little shit.”

That was a shame! No one should be able to woo someone like Y/N this way… She deserved far better! How she had been able to smile and coo with him, to dance without throwing up was a pure mystery for Sherlock. How he didn’t throw up was even more incredible. When he saw the suspect pulling Y/N close (far too close) to him to whisper something to her ear, when he saw her giggling and drawing him to a door which led to an alley behind the nightclub, Sherlock jumped out off his seat and scream

“Lestrade! Do… No, I go!”

And with that, he was running out of the van, cursing like a sailor, under John and Donovan’s dumfounded eyes. He arrived in the alley at the same time as Lestrade to see Y/N, red marks in her neck, kicking the suspect right where it pains the most. Surprised, the man fell to the ground while grapping his family jewels.

“Oh… Bitch!”

I beg your pardon? That was too much for Sherlock, blinded by his anger, he kicked the aggressor right in the head which made him loose consciousness. Greg started to yell

“Sher… Yes, no, ok, he deserved that. I’ll call an ambulance, please, stay with… Whatever…”

Greg didn’t have to ask to Sherlock to stay with Y/N, he already was leaning into her, worried.

“Is everything all right?”

“Yes, mission achieved, I think.”

“Good.”

Without thinking anymore, Sherlock crashed his lips on Y/N’s. A little gasp of surprise made her part her lips. Sherlock was kissing her. Sherlock was French kissing her. God. Since all her fantasies seemed to want to become true tonight, Y/N buried her hands in Sherlock’s curls with delight. They were even smoother than she had imagined, velvety. When they parted because of the lack of air, Sherlock huffed

“I have feelings for you…”

And Y/N smiled tenderly to him before answering playfully

“Yes, I think I had deduced that.”

Sherlock returned the smile

“Be my girlfriend?”

Y/N blushed madly, oh, how often had she dreamed about this?

“Sure…”

“Good. Now, there’s one thing you should be able to deduce…”

He leaned in Y/N once again, nuzzled her neck and, suddenly, start to suck a fierce hickey right where the serial-killer’s handprints already started to fade.

“Sh… Oh!”

Lapping playfully at the love bite, Sherlock lowly growled

“You’re mine and I don’t share.”

Y/N was just in Heaven.

A moment later, when Greg, John and Donovan joined Sherlock and Y/N to the ambulance where a doctor was examining her, she felt all the looks directed on the furious hickey in her neck. She looked at Sherlock, who was smiling smugly, then at the agape team. She absolutely loved the feeling of belonging she felt, but she wasn’t really ready to let the world, Sherlock excepted, knowing it, so…

“Ok. Everybody shut up. Too much emotions for tonight, I’m very fine, thank you Doctor.”

Then she gave a hand to Sherlock

“Walk me home?”

Sherlock happily agreed, and what had happened next is for a different story.

McLoughlin Blvd, Vancouver WA (kitty corner from Clark College) If these class dates and/or times don't work for you, please let us know. We understand that you have lives, and families, and work. We will work something out that works better with your schedule. Just let us know.... ....we also have home seller classes available too...link on left on website Remember...with reservation...we will throw in lunch, or dinner! :-D~~~~~~~~~Another quick reminder that we have our Winter Client Appreciation coming up! Chris Berg and I are honored to invite you to Star Wars: The LAST JEDI on Saturday, 12/16 from 3:30pm-6:30pm. Please let either me ([email protected]) or Chris Berg ([email protected]), know that you would like to attend and how many adults/kids will be in your party. We will send you the link to get your tickets, and make sure you are on the 'list'. :-D They are first come, first served...and no assigned seating. Because Disney is anticipating a huge showing for this they upped some things on us, so this is the only movie event we will be hosting this winter. In the spring we are anticipating hosting The new INCREDIBLES movie (FINALLY!!!), and hopefully the Han Solo movie as well. Chris and I want you to know that we appreciate you! We appreciate your trust, your friendship, and your referrals! Thank YOU so much for trusting us with your Home Adventure....whether you are Buying, Selling, or Refinancing... we appreciate you. So...come watch a movie with us!! :-D .....and here comes the rain.... Actually, I may be in the minority here, but I love the rain. Deep down I'm really a homebody. When it's nice out we feel guilty if we are not out 'enjoying' it. Nice weather is for doing 'stuff'....for working in the yard, for hiking, for going places, for exploring....for doing everything except what homebodies really love doing. Homebodies....we love doing things like: snuggling on the couch, or blanket burrito ourselves next to a nice, cozy fire (inside), or wearing fuzzy socks & cozy pjs...maybe we're reading, or crocheting, or binging on Netflix...homebodies like to hole up inside our homes and bunker down...and the best part about fall & winter is that we don't have to feel guilty for doing so! Yay!!! I LOVE this time of year... October through December is my absolute favorite. In fact I think we need to start talking Christmas soon... Bring on the 'bad' weather because it's all good to me!! LOL We are supposed to get a LOT of rain though this weekend so be prepared. :-) This week I do want to talk a bit about rain, and water in our area because it is something we deal with here. Every area has their 'things', but for us...it is water. I had something else typed up regarding contractors and home repairs & upgrades that I was going to send out, but I think I will wait on that one just a bit. The fall and winter months are excellent for rain, snow (in the mountains), for holidays, for snuggling on the couch (see a trend here?), and for a lot of things, but they're also good for home buyers and sellers. We do live in an area with a considerable amount of rain, so doing a home inspection during the time of year when we do see the most moisture is actually a good thing for buyers (and home owners) so you can actually 'see' how the home does in time of rain. During a home inspection, one of the things an inspector does is crawl in the crawlspace (better him than me!). When the weather is wet, s/he is going to see things that they might not see during the dry weather. Many areas where we live have a high water table so water in the crawlspace really isn't that uncommon, but it can be an issue. Is it small amounts...soggy ground....under the visquean? Is it draining under the home from dirt at ground level ventilation areas that will need some correction? Is there water actually sitting in the crawlspace that needs to properly drained to the low point drain under the home? Does it need a sump pump put in to properly dispose of? These are all pretty common things we see during a home inspection and most of it is pretty quick and easy to remedy. I was helping some clients sell their home about this time last year and during the home inspection their buyers inspector noted water in the crawlspace. This particular home backed to a swampy area, and while my clients swore they had never had water under there before, they did this year. We had a drainage expert come in to put in proper drains and a sump pump under the home to prevent it happening again. This is always the worse case scenario...but not unexpected. It's funny....I lived in Woodland for 20 years with a totally dry crawlspace even though my neighbor behind me had a sump pump, and the neighbor next to me had some extra drainage in their crawlspace. This shows that even though one home might be dry...their neighbors might not be. We recently moved to a hill in the Battle Ground area and guess what? Yep.... I have a moist crawlspace! LOL Ok....I'm laughing because 1) I felt someone cringe when they read 'moist' (even though I love that word), but 2) because Woodland, a flood zone, we had a totally dry crawlspace, and we live on a hill now, not in a flood zone, with a moist crawlspace! It cracks me up... It's just a little ground moisture so nothing sitting on top of the visquean (the plastic barrier under your home). There isn't really anything we can do about this except keep an eye on it to see if we need additional drainage put under our home at some point. Rain can also do a number on your siding... if you have vinyl siding make sure that the pieces are all snug and overlap, you don't want water to get behind that. Look for holes or penetration in your siding and seal those up. If you have T-111, Wood, Wood composite, Shingle, or LP (a LOT of homes have these types of siding)...water is not your friend. Look for areas of swelling where water may be getting soaked up. This will occur on lower leading edges like the bottom of the siding around your foundation, or where the top gable /\ meets the side. This is actually a pretty easy fix and is quite common. One of the things you can do to make sure that water doesn't affect your siding is to keep it sealed with paint. Siding like this really does need a good coat of paint every 5 years, but on those lower leading edges, keep them sealed with primer and paint. If you have fiber cement, or hardiplank siding then you're still not in the clear. This is a great siding, but again...keep an eye out for anywhere that water can leak in, and yes, you still need to paint this type of siding for protection too. Your home inspector will be walking around and checking the siding out, along with other things. Most inspectors start outside the home, looking at most of the things that I am going to be writing about here.... Gutters....let's keep those gutters cleaned out. There are quite a bit of falling leaves and tree needles right now that can, and will get in there. Those first good rains are going to show you which gutters need cleaned out. As I type this I am noticing that the gutter end by my daughters rooms is overflowing. I just texted my husband that it is going to need cleaned out. Did you know that if your gutters get plugged and are overflowing it can do damage to the roof overhang wood...it can cause wood rot to the wood right there, it can also get plugged at the downspout and overflow into your crawlspace. Yep, sometimes the water in the crawlspace doesn't come from the ground at all, but from a plugged downspout. Do you have skylights? My house has two small ones. This is a good time to make sure that the flashing around those is sealed tight... water leaking around skylights won't be noticeable for quite some time....and after it has done a bunch of damage to the roof plywood around those lights, and to the insulation in the attic, before you even see it in your ceiling or the ceiling openings for those skylights. What about the roof? When it is raining is an excellent time for the inspector to be looking inside your atticspace for any signs of moisture coming through the roof. He will see signs of moisture on the roof plywood decking that might need addressed by a licensed roofer. Don't forget that any wet insulation will be needing replaced too. Another thing the inspector will be looking at is to make sure that the ventilation in the attic is open, and not blocked. Is there moss on the roof? This is pretty common to happen here....I mean, we have moss EVERYWHERE, but you don't want to see it on a roof. There's a powder that can be sprinkled on the roof to help with that, a zinc strip that can be placed on the roof to help prevent the growth of moss, but one thing we don't want is moss. If, and when, you own your home, do NOT pressure wash your roof! Oh my goodness... don't pressure wash moss off your roof! Use the zinc strip, or the powder, and then get up there with a stiff broom and brush off the dead moss if need be. Pressure washing your roof actually shortens the life span of your roof by washing off the granules that protect it from the elements....and for heavens sakes, do NOT use TIDE on your roof!! Tide gets oils, and dirts out of your clothes, right? What do you think your roof is made of??? I still see, and hear, about people using laundry detergent on their roof, and it just slays me.... How about stairs or decking? During the rain is a good time to see how slick those might be....I don't know about you, but I can't even count how many times I've slipped on decking in the rain while out showing homes. I know that grace isn't my strong suit, but they can be slick. Other things that can be noted about a home during the fall/winter months... Are there any areas of water pooling around the home? How does the home hold heat? Wood framing around windows are caulked and sealed, or is there wood rot? Does the nearby water run off run towards the home, or towards the street? We live in the land of liquid sunshine, and there is no reason to fear it.... let's embrace it! Our homes are built to protect and shield us...from the world, and from the elements. We need to help it do it's job by taking care of it. Most items that come up during a home inspection are pretty simple repairs, and there aren't too many that are very expensive, but over my years of helping people buy and sell homes I have noticed that it gets more expensive to fix the longer you wait to do it. Little things can, and do, often tsunami into BIG things. As a home owner, it isn't a bad thing to occasionally have a home inspected. Call your inspector (or call me...I have some numbers), and ask them to come out to look at your home. You don't have to be buying, or selling, a home to have it inspected. Some times it is nice to have a fresh pair of eyes come through to catch those 'little' things before they become 'big' things. Some other things that are good to do to a home during this time of year: change out batteries in your smoke detector, caulk around windows (inside & out), put some Moss B Gone (or similar product) on your roof to prevent moss growth, clean out those gutters, clean & vacuum out your wall heaters, have your furnace serviced, have your chimney swept, make sure you have a chimney cap on your fireplace chimney, check the screens on all your crawlspace vents so that you don't get animals underneath your home (please make sure you don't already have animals underneath there first!) check the screens on all your house vents so that you don't have birds getting in there during the spring (unless you want to be a birdies godmother/father?), check your atticspace for signs of wetness & to make sure all your vents are properly venting outside, check your crawlspace for water either ground or leaks (a good idea is to run all your water in your home first...like the sinks, tubs, and flush the toilets) & to make sure that your under the home insulation isn't torn down because of animals, go around your home and pull back any dirt or bark dust that is sitting up against your siding or your crawlspace vents..... prepare your home for the upcoming fall/winter. One thing about crawlspace vents... a lot of times I will see homes with those Styrofoam blocks in the vents... this is not necessarily a good thing. If we have times of extreme, prolonged cold then those blocks can be helpful (think December 2008), but our area is pretty temperate and they're really not needed...and especially not year around. My favorite home inspector likes to tell people that, "a home is a living, breathing organism. Just like you and me, it needs to breathe." The vents around your home allow it to 'breathe'. Because we do get so much moisture around here, allowing your home to 'breathe' can help prevent the dreaded 'M' word.....no, not Moist.....MOLD. Mold occurs mainly in moist, stagnant, humid areas. If you are going to use the Styrofoam blocks then remember to, 'install in fall, remove in spring'. Don't fear the weather, and the time of year, when buying a home... every year, the best time of year to be a buyer is always going to be October-February...before the spring crush. As always, I hope this helps! Please feel free to call, email, text, or facebook with any questions. I think I covered everything...but I'm sure there are things I forgot. I've been down with that sickness all week so I've been dating Nyquil & Dayquil. I think I'm on the road to feeling better though...or at least I hope I am! What can I do to help you today??? Information is power, and I hope that I am able to help you. Good luck, and as always...May the odds be ever in your favor out there.... AND If you are looking for a real estate agent, I would love to be able to help you. As always....this is just a quick overview.... again...and I can't say this enough...please remember that your agent is NOT a salesperson, and should not be acting like one. Real Estate is not really about houses, it is about relationships. Your agent, and your lender work for YOU. You drive the bus...we are merely GPS to help you get to your goals. Like the classes, this weekly blog email is to help you with your home adventure. The goal is to be informative and non-promotional. :-) We are, however, hoping you will call and want us to help with your adventure. If you have any questions about this, or something you have heard...or if you would like me to help you with your home adventure, please call, email, text, or facebook me anytime. I am, as always, happy to help! Thank you again for your business and your referrals!! ...and thank you for referring these classes to your friends, family, and co-workers. ..disclaimer...if you have already purchased a home, or would no longer like to receive these emails, please let me know and I will be happy to remove you from any further mailings...

I own up to my own shit good and bad. Fraze: If that's news to you suddenly too bad Ali: Hahahaha Ali: no, THAT is news to me Fraze: I thought you had shit to do Ali: Sick burn, some of us can multitask Fraze: Tell someone who gives a fuck Ali: Oh, you are VERY bad at appearing non-plussed Ali: your entire life experience should tell you that Ali: the only person you've got fooled is yourself Fraze: Thanks doctor fraud Fraze: throw that all seeing bullshit lens on yourself Ali: ???

I'm trying to build a future same as you. It's hardly end of days. Fraze: Sorry you're not the centre of everyone's universe for one sec. Fraze: And everything ain't rosy all the damn time. Big deal. Ali: and why is he an addict? hmm? lets explore that shall we Ali: Bea's the only one building anything Ali: you're on her coattails Ali: its never been rosy that's my fucking point! Ali: and i'm sorry i've got sick of pretending its anything close to rn Ali: because it isn't and we all know it, aren't you all sick of pretending Fraze: That ain't for me or you to say. You'd have to ask him Fraze: You don't know shit about what I'm achieving or not you patronising twat Fraze: Nobody's asking for that except you and none of us are pretending either we're just making the best of what we've got which is apparently optional for you now you're over it Fraze: Life don't have to be exactly what you want for it to be worth a fucking damn Fraze: Stop acting like you're above us all and be with us Ali: Except I can't because he's gone.

Well whoop there it is. Everyone in this fucking town looks down their nose at me or outright abuses me on the daily, the kids I'm too young to have have a part-time dad and heaven forbid I act my age, my own family tell me to fuck off and die in a ditch, or tell me what an awful person I am Ali: there it is, yuk it up 'cos I don't know what else you want from me Ali: I have NOTHING to give, I'm so sorry I'm not worth my place in the tribe Fraze joined the chat 29 minutes ago Fraze: Put that and whatever else you gotta on me. It don't matter. I did what I did and I'd do it again. For him. Fraze: Boo fucking hoo. Deal with it. Nobody made those choices but you. Those kids don't need your sob story they need you to decide what the fuck you and Caleb are doing. Together or apart. Fraze: You don't get to act your age 'cause you're somebody's fucking ma now and its on you to let them be kids. Fraze: If you can't hack that you shouldn't of done it. Simple as. Fraze: As for the pity party you're having about us, nobody said anything like that. Calm down or keep projecting I don't care. Ali: Of course you would, no one matters but the sacred three. I know that, no need to remind me when you spend every waking day showing us exactly where we are in the pecking order Ali: This is a joke, what have I said to you, and mum, what is ALL I said Ali: we didn't need theirs, we didn't need yours Ali: but we got it Ali: and yet I'm nothing like my mother and my problems are NOTHING like hers Ali: I dare you to call her a spoilt bitch Ali: Wow, write a pamphlet. Ali: Read back what you've said, I'm not telling you what you said, you'll only say its bullshit. Just read it Ali: I just Ali: Never mind Fraze: You're a joke, Ali. Fraze: Your situation is nothing like ma's. You've had so much support all round. Like fuck are you working 4 jobs you're going to uni, you have multiple people willing to help with your kids and anything else at the drop of a hat Fraze: She had nothing but da. Fraze: I know what I said and didn't say. Spin it how you want just like with whatever mum said. Fraze: I'm not going in circles with you. Ali: That's all your doing Ali: our entire lives is one big circle revolving around them Ali: please tell me how hard she had it again Ali: as if that makes an iota of difference to my struggle Ali: so much support? Ali: I feel it Fraze: It should make a difference to your fucking behavior Fraze: but whatever I'm sick of this and if you can bail so can I Ali: Why? Ali: Why should it Fraze: It's called empathy brainiac Ali: No, it isn't Ali: that's the past, empathy is doing fuck all to change what it was Ali: you show empathy to the people who need it Ali: in the now Fraze: she does still need it in the now Ali: and i don't? Fraze: You get a shit ton of it Ali: WHERE Ali: I'm a joke, I'm a fuck up, I'm a cunt Ali: I'm not doing enough to help Ro Ali: I'm not doing enough for mum Ali: I'm a bad mother who shouldn't have had her kids Ali: there is nothing Ali: I'm not pulling this out of thin air, Fraze Fraze: You're pulling it out of your arse 'cause you wanna feel sorry for yourself and for everyone else to Fraze: You think I ain't been called shit. Made mistakes. We all have including mum Ali: Please do bring it back round to you and mum Ali: continue to prove my point Ali: call me crazy and tell me i'm making it all up Fraze: I didn't say that I said you're making a meal of it Fraze: build a bridge and get the fuck over it Fraze: talk to the people you gotta to change shit Fraze: Or just keep crying to me Fraze: what's that gonna do? Ali: Yeah, silly me for trying to get my own brother to care Ali: that's not how families are meant to work Fraze: I'm still here talking to you ain't I Fraze: you're the one not caring Ali: of course, what a cold bitch Fraze: You wish Ali: no i don't Ali: even if no one respects the fact that i have feelings that can get hurt just like the rest of you do Fraze: Again, literally nobody's ever said that Fraze: we're just trying to get you to tell ma your feelings are hurt Fraze: at least Ali: actions speak louder than words, even though your words HAVE been fucking horrible and you aren't convincing me otherwise Ali: she knows...she's the one who hurt them Fraze: and you hurt hers too Fraze: and Fraze: I don't know what else I can do here Fraze: this ain't even my fight as you said Ali: i know, i was the one who did it Ali: yeah a real impasse we find ourselves in Fraze: Do whatever it is you're gonna 'cause I can't multitask and I do actually have shit that needs doing despite what you think Ali: i was planning to

We understand that you have lives, and families, and work. We will work something out that works better with your schedule. Just let us know.... ....we also have home seller classes available too...link on left on website Remember...with reservation...we will throw in lunch, or dinner! :-D ~~~~~~~~~

Happy sunny weather!!

It's that time again (and again!)... CLIENT APPRECIATION EVENT time... Yay!! :-D Saturday, June 17 from 3pm-6pm. Chris Berg & I would like to invite our clients to come watch a movie with us. Didn't we just have one? Well, yes...yes, we did and we had so much fun that we want to do it again! Which one now? Well, it involves some Disney, a red car, a tow truck, some really good music, and really good friends along Route 66 . Come join us for Cars 3!! This is just our small way of saying, "THANK YOU" for your continued support, friendship, and oh yes, referrals. We appreciate YOU so much. Come watch a movie with us! There's always room for friends and family too. :-) We do need rsvp's, and those can be made via Facebook or email to either Chris Berg ([email protected]) or Tracie DeMars ([email protected]) for right now.

We are always excited for the client appreciation events, and it's almost as exciting for us as getting someone's offer accepted on their dream home... or getting an offer signed around on the home they're selling. I know people think that Real Estate is about houses, and while, yes...that is partly correct, it isn't completely correct. :-D Real Estate is more about the relationships we form with our clients, and assisting them with their goals.

As we've talked about, once you hire a Realtor to help you with your home adventure, you are ready for the 'fun' part.....LOOKING AT HOMES! :-) This is always an exciting time for buyers, and it should be! Every home you pull up to has the possibility to be 'the one'....The one you make an offer on, the one that you buy, the ONE that becomes YOUR HOME...and it is very exciting. For the sellers though, it is very stressful because currently it is THEIR home, and they're leaving so that strangers can come in. As a Realtor, we are trying to make this as easy as possible for both the buyer and seller, but we need help...

From the homeowners (sellers), we are asking that the home be available to show, that the home be clean, nothing of value is being left out, all medicines are put away and out of sight (not left in bathrooms or kitchen cabinets), anything that a seller wants excluded from the sale is noted, that sweet pups are either removed or kenneled, that sweet kitties are noted as inside only or inside/outside ok, and that please, please... homeowners (sellers) be gone for showings. As always, there is more to it than this, but that is a different class....and email. You can always call me for more information when you are selling your home. From the buyers....it gets a bit more complicated... before we go house shopping, we are asking that you have a pre-approval letter with a solid lender, we are asking that you do not look at homes above your price range, we are asking that you have thought about the Top Three things you want in a home (so we can show you homes that have those items you value most), and that you help us help you.... When a Realtor opens the lockbox to show you the home, we are taking responsibility for everything that happens from that moment on....until we lock up the house and put the key back into the lockbox. As I say all the time... Real Estate is NOT like HGTV... you don't just get to wander the home while your Realtor sits outside... we must be with you at all times when touring your potential new home. Sometimes this can be like herding cats, but we understand your excitement... just please, please as you are touring the home, and we know you have your family with you, please...we must all stay together. Don't make me sing to you here..... As cool as those toys look, I'm sorry but the kiddos can't play with them, and sorry...but you can't jump on the beds either. It's ok to open cupboards, and closets, but we can't open dressers, or go through someone else's personal items. Touring a home is a VISUAL thing....sorry. Yes, you can use the bathroom. When it's wet out (and frankly lately it's been more wet than not), it's always a good take off our shoes before we enter someone else's home so be sure to wear easy on & off shoes. When we are looking at homes, often we have more than one home to look at, and many homes are owner occupied so your Realtor makes appointments. We do the best we can to make sure we have enough time to look at the homes, but we need to stay within our timeframes as the sellers are waiting to come home after we leave, or there are other Realtors waiting to show the home. I promise we are not trying to 'rush' you through the home...we are just trying to stay within the timeframes so that you can see the other homes on your list. Looking at homes is exciting, and many of you will send your Realtor a long list of homes to go see, but what you don't know.....yet...that looking at homes is exhausting, and they quickly starts to blend together. Don't look at more than 6-8 in one appointment. I've had clients look at up to 10 at once, and that is a lot. We can do it....just be prepared. Your Realtor should give you a print out for each home we see, so be sure to take notes on each of the houses because they will blend together and you will not remember what you liked, or didn't like, about the first couple of homes by the time we get to the last couple of homes. :-) With the real estate market being so crazy right now, it's important that if a home comes up that you like, that you let your Realtor know as soon as possible so we can make an appointment for you to see it. Your Realtor should be sending you a list of homes as they come on the market for you to check....drive by the homes...check out those neighborhoods....and let's make an appointment to go see the inside of the home. Do not trust Internet photos! Realtors hire professional photographers for our listings for a reason. :-) Internet photos are a lot like internet dating...you don't know what you're going to get when you get there Like the neighborhood, but not sure about the house? Let's at least go check out the inside! You never know as you can't judge a book (or a house) by its cover. ASK QUESTIONS!! For heavens sake...this is a home you are thinking about buying... ask questions! As your Realtor, we are here to help! If we can't answer your questions, we can at least set up in the right direction to get those answers. Buying a home is a very emotional experience. Your Realtor is here to point out pros/cons, and to help you.... Trust your heart, but use your head... or your Realtor. :-) Remember that we work FOR you.

Thank you, as always, for reading this. Now, as we enjoy the holiday with our family....let's take a moment to remember WHY we have this holiday....to remember our brave men and women who fought, and died, so that we can enjoy our time with our families. Memorial Day isn't just about BBQ's, fun, and family... it's about those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. We Remember....

I hope this helps you this week! Please, if you have any questions, please feel free to call, email, text, or even facebook me anytime. I am always here to help!

Information is power, and I hope that I am help you! Good luck, and as always...May the odds be ever in your favor out there.... If you are looking for a real estate agent, I would love to be able to help you. I hope that explains this a bit, but if you have any questions, or comments please call or email me anytime! Please remember that while I mean these emails/blogs to be helpful, and educational, I am still hoping that you will call, or email me. I would love to help you with your home buying, or home selling adventure! :-)

As always....this is just a quick overview.... again...and I can't say this enough...please remember that your agent is NOT a salesperson, and should not be acting like one. Real Estate is not really about houses, it is about relationships. Your agent, and your lender work for YOU. You drive the bus...we are merely GPS to help you get to your goals. Like the classes, this weekly blog email is to help you with your home adventure. The goal is to be informative and non-promotional. :-) We are, however, hoping you will call and want us to help with your adventure. Thank you again for your business and your referrals!! ...and thank you for referring these classes to your friends, family, and co-workers. ....disclaimer...if you have already purchased a home, or would no longer like to receive these emails, please let me know and I will be happy to remove you from any further mailings...

When it's wet out (which it hasn't been lately), it's always a good take off our shoes before we enter someone else's home so be sure to wear easy on & off shoes.
