loving each other won’t save us, but it won’t hurt either…
my two favourite underrated knights, sir urry and sir lavain. i was struck by how close they seem in the closing part of the morte, particularly how they stick by each other and lancelot as everything starts to unravel. thus, an imagined moment during the siege of joyous guard.

hey boys it is time for me 2 post self indulgent fic of my pc :3 enjoy
Aadya is new to the world of theater. They can admit that. New to their knowledge, at least - no memory before Uzer, and they’re about as certain as they can manage that they didn’t find their way into any traveling shows on the way to Masceral City. So, the Alabona Theater Company - it’s a new world to them. This season their first.
Despite that freshness, they are fairly certain that the first day of rehearsal isn’t meant to go the way it did.
A poor table read, understandable - it’s new material, and it seems to them that at least a couple of the cast members are a bit displeased with their roles. Add to that the pressure of the sheer amount of money the Alabona has spent on Rattlesword - a number Alleyn hasn’t shared with Aadya precisely, but one that almost certainly has far too many digits - and it makes sense that nerves would be high.
Even then - the stage falling out from under an actor’s feet? That’s a bit excessive.
The whole situation feels like it’s flying over Aadya’s head more and more with each passing day: they came here to find Keire, started work at the Alabona for the sake of paying for their room at the Lucky Foot, and now? Now, apparently, there’s a stage-breaking, sludge-producing phantom in the props dungeon and they’ve agreed to help collect strange objects from a stranger woman in order to get the thing gone.
It’s a far cry from the original plan.
So once the evening of the table read comes to a close, once they bid good night to their coworkers and slowly climb the stairs to the inn portion of the Lucky Foot, Aadya lets their mind spin. It’s as good a place as any for contemplation, the buzz of tavern patrons fading to a gentle hum as they climb higher; once they cross the threshold into their room it’s little more than a wash of white noise, loud enough to drown out their own quiet breaths but not so much as to distract. As such - perfect place for a bit of thought.
More or less autonomously, they shed a few outer layers of clothing and lock the door, propping their bag against it, just on the edge of falling over. Aadya’s not quite sure where that habit came from, but it’s there - and it’s helped more than once when another tenant, blackout drunk, tried to get into the wrong room. A crash isn’t the best way to wake, necessarily, but it gives fair enough warning.
Aadya’s eyes skim over the room - it’s simple, even spartan, but cheap and comfortable enough to work. A small bed, somewhat rumpled, with a lamp to one side and a nightstand to the other. Across from the bed a dresser, above that a mirror. Tucked into the corner is a fireplace, and a kitchen of sorts - really just a small burner and a sink, mostly useful for tea. And they were lucky enough to snag a room with an attached toilet - Aadya isn’t particularly self-conscious, but the potential questions that might arise in a communal washroom, given their appearance and general lack of explanations, are best avoided.
The room is just as it was this morning, dried leaves on the windowsill and all. Aadya’s not sure what they were expecting: yes, quite a few things happened today, and they may end up on the road again soon, but it wasn’t… revelatory. Nothing really changed. They haven’t really changed. They got a bit of information, a stroke of luck, but it’s not - they’re not -
They’re still stuck.
Keire Warnier.
That’s all they have, a name - and now a vague idea of who she might be. A politician, evidently, trying to encourage people to vote. A solid cause, Aadya knows, but what sort of voters is she trying to draw? What kind of politician is she?
What kind of person is she?
Now that they have a bit of a grasp on who she is, if only vaguely, Aadya at least has a chance of finding their way to her. They shied away from just asking every person they came across before - what if she wasn’t well known? What if she was wanted? - but knowing that Keire is a public figure makes things seem more… concrete, maybe. More doable, hopefully.
Aadya paces, back and forth across the narrow strip of flooring between bed and dresser, fiddling with their hands and thinking. They should help with this - traveling might help them find more information, and the odd day out of the inn means a bit more money left in their pocket - but it just…
They stop, stare into the mirror. Stare at themselves.
It’s strange, looking at something that is physically, extremely, obviously them, and still feeling that it’s foreign.
They don’t feel wrong, or uncomfortable in any way, just… unfamiliar. And the more they stare, the longer they look over their body, the more frustrated they get.
What the hell happened?
There are scars. Scars, everywhere, cropping up on more or less every part of their body. Beyond the cold, they’re part of the reason Aadya bundles up so carefully. Some can’t really be hidden - on their neck, the base of one horn, creeping down the backs of their hands - but they cover what they can. They’re not all serious, some not even noticeable from a distance - but they’re unexplainable, and that’s the thing.
If it was just their chest - just two thick lines, long since healed - that would be easy. Aadya doesn’t remember choosing to have that done, doesn’t remember what it looked like before, but they met the odd trans person on their way to Masceral. They know what top surgery is, even if they don’t recall having it. Those scars they can explain, and that brings some comfort.
And maybe they could show those off, display that one thing about themselves that they are certain of.
But.
The reality of Aadya’s situation is that it’s not just those scars, it’s not something they can explain away. And of course, of course, they’re not the most noticeable.
Their fingers trace downwards, to a spot on their ribcage. A few inches south of where they understand their heart to be. There, such a pale shade of green it’s nearly white, is a star-shaped scar slightly smaller than their fist. The skin is warped, and they follow the ridges and valleys outward; exploding from that center star is ring after ring of similarly destroyed tissue, spanning nearly the entirety of their torso. They can’t stand to look at it directly, hence the mirror - and it feels so, so wrong.
It’s abundantly clear to Aadya that something horrific happened to them.
It’s almost more horrifying that they don’t know what.
They take a deep breath, shutting their eyes and withdrawing their hand when a twinge of some old pain - imagined or real - shoots through their chest.
When Aadya opens their eyes once more, their gaze flits back to their reflection. It’s an odd sort of exposure therapy that they’ve been trying to do, forcing themselves to realize that yes, indeed, the tiefling with the green skin, and gold eyes, and yes, the scars, is them. They hate having to remind themselves of something that should be so simple, so basic, but - they’re hopeful that it might help. That maybe, once they become comfortable with this bit, the memories will start to return.
And maybe - maybe - if they make new memories… that might help too.
It’s a long shot, but. Maybe.
They’re fidgeting with their hands again. Always the same motion, always without thinking: a twisting around the fourth finger of their left hand, quick and repetitive. Simple, but grounding - even if it doesn’t feel exactly how it’s meant to.
There’s a noise from the tavern below that Aadya recognizes as last call - and a startled glance at the window confirms that, somehow, they’ve spent several hours in the quiet of their room once again. The moon is risen, the sun long gone, and they’ll be needed at the Alabona in not too many hours’ time. There’s not yet a need to rush - they don’t sleep well on the best of nights, and they don’t sleep much regardless - but they find that a few hours’ worth of a lie-down serves them far better than nothing at all.
So - it’s off with the last few pieces of work clothing, on with an oversized tunic, and into bed. A bit of moonlight streams through the window - Aadya doesn’t close the curtains, as they’ve found they prefer a bit of light when they rest. They’re not afraid of the dark - they can see perfectly fine - but something about the silvery light of a full moon feels… comforting. Like they’re not alone, maybe, and there’s someone on the other side of their bedroom door.
And Aadya lies there, breaths slowing, the silver ring they wear on a chain around their neck as cold as ever where it lies in the center of their chest.
And they wait, patiently, for morning.

What Is Vaginal Tightening? How Vaginal Rejuvenation Treatments Work
It does this by gently massaging the exterior vaginal skin and heating layers of your skin. At the same time, there will be contact cooling to protect the outer layer of skin. By raising the tissue temperature, your body naturally initiates a repair and remodeling response. Over time, this leads to skin firmness and improved tone. The treatment is comfortable and delivers excellent results. You can use vaginal cones to improve the strength of your pelvic floor muscles. These cones are tampons like objects that are available in different weights. You then squeeze your muscles and hold as long as you can. You can increase the weight as you become more successful in holding these cones in place. This added element to the exercise increases the effectiveness. These creams and gel promise to shrink the size of the vagina to make it tighter but there is no guarantee as such. As women enter their 40s, hormone levels start to change. Consider trying Kegel balls -, water-, and silicone-based lubricants to keep things moving smoothly. In addition, both the urethra AND the vagina are tightened, leading to less urine leakage and increased tightness. If it is a vaginoplasty, then eth excess skin is removed, and the vaginal wall tissues are tightened using sutures. If it is a labiaplasty, then eth excess tissue is removed to get the desired contour. For anyone who struggles with climaxing or orgasms during intercourse, this treatment is right for you. The treatment is an opportunity to improve one’s physical response to pleasurable sexual activity. The treatment uses one’s own plasma rich proteins to help regenerate and restore cell functions in your vagina. In fact, says ACOG, women's genitals naturally have a wide range of normal appearances that are anatomically correct. There's no one "look" or right way for a vagina and labia to be formed. The material in this site is intended to be of general informational use and is not intended to constitute medical advice, probable diagnosis, or recommended treatments. All products and services featured are selected by our editors. Some women have larger vaginal openings, just like some men have larger penises. If your partner is smaller, you may desire to seek out a vaginal tightening procedure to make sex feel better. Subjects were given the questionnaire package to complete before the surgery, and they were told that they could resume coital sexual activities 6 to 10 weeks postoperatively, as determined by their surgeon. When you’re ready to reclaim your sexual health through vaginal rejuvenation with MonaLisa Touch and leave VA behind, call Dr. Gary Willen and his gentle, helpful team at Tahoe Women’s Care. You can also use the online form to schedule a consultation to find out if MonaLisa Touch is right for you. MonaLisa Touch is 100% non-hormonal treatment, which makes it perfect for survivors of breast, uterine, ovarian, and other cancers that may be triggered by hormones. Chemotherapy often induces menopausal symptoms even in young women. According to the magazine, if you do two sets of 10 to 20 reps a day, you should notice the difference in about a month. The vaginal procedure used to repair the scars is called Fenton’s procedure. Fenton’s procedure is a commonly performed operation in which any scar tissue that hasn’t healed satisfactorily is removed. Unfortunately, since they do not address the tissue within the vagina or the vaginal wall, Kegel exercises will not be able to help women with true vaginal laxity. Despite how common it is today, vaginal laxity is an issue that many women are too embarrassed or uncomfortable to talk about. Unfortunately, this leads many to suffer in silence instead of seeking a solution to their problem. The vaginal walls are made up of fibrous material and collagen that give it flexibility and strength.

so I’ve been wanting to write up my take on ‘werefolk’ for a while, but haven’t rly felt the inspiration to do so until recently when a certain someone got me into reading Teen Wolf fanfic even tho I don’t watch the show lmfa o
my biggest problems w/ most interpretations of werefolk are 1) that the human parts of these creatures must constantly ‘battle’ their ‘primal’ sides (fuck anthropocentricism honestly), and 2) there’s usually very weak explanation for how werefolk came to be in the first place.
my take on werefolk is that they’re actually fusions of two separate, individual beings, rather than a human with nonhuman “side-effects”
~Table of Contents~

Initial Fusion
Species Involved
Melding
Reproduction and Inheritance
Shifting
Consciousness
Random Facts
~Terms~
Fusion- when used as a noun, this refers to an organism composed of two separate beings. this is the term I will exclusively be using here, though there are plenty of other terms for Fusions. “Werefolk” (singular: “Were”) is the next most common term, though it is more dated (not necessarily derogatory, merely old). older Fusions are more likely to embrace “Werefolk” as a label, while younger Fusions usually only do so ironically or among elders. more specific “Were-” labels like “Werewolf”, “Weretiger”, etc. vary by community, and some will prefer the broader Werefolk/Fusion over specific labels, or vis-versa. it all depends on the culture and history surrounding that particular Fusion community, as well as individual preferences. “shape-shifter” is simply considered juvenile and not taken seriously by most Fusions.
Meld- the level of metaphysical fusion between the two beings contained within a Fusion, ranging from, “two completely individual beings,” to, “one fully meshed being”. despite popular assumption, this term is used to measure mental ‘meshing’ across generations, not within an individual Fusion’s lifetime. this will be explained in more detail in the ‘Melding’ section.
Partners vs. Phases- these terms refer to each ‘side’ of a Fusion’s being. either term could be more correct depending on the generation of Fusion and level of meld (again, this will be elaborated on in the ‘Melding’ section). preferred term varies by individual, though most Fusions are fine with either.
Shift/Flip/Switch- the action of changing from one partner/phase in a Fusion to another. all three terms are used interchangeably by most Fusions, but here I’ll primarily be using “shift”. “in-shift” will refer to the phase/partner who is currently in primary control of the Fusion, while “out-shift” will refer to the phase/partner who isn’t currently in primary control of the Fusion. 
~Initial fusion~
the act of fusion creates what are called ‘initial’ or ‘1st gen’ Fusions. their offspring may be numbered by generation afterwards, and are automatically born Fusions (thus, do not participate in the act of fusion to come into existence).
fusion is the closest possible bond on a physical and metaphysical level. few are ready to undertake this intensive process, but the reward—if performed properly—is euphoric for both parties involved.
trust and determination are absolute requirements for this process to work. if these aren’t present, the process will not initiate. similarly, consent from both sides is required, or the process will not initiate—a forced fusion is utterly impossible. essentially, fusion requires equal spiritual energy given by both partners, and if this isn’t the case, it simply can’t work.
Pre-fusion
the act of fusion is an incredibly intensive process that requires much mental/physical prepwork. if done carefully and correctly, fusion shouldn’t result in much lasting injury beyond the act besides some unavoidable mental/physical bruising.
on the mental front, those participating in a fusion must meditate and calm their minds several weeks before the act, working on syncing their minds and souls all the while. physically, each partner must bulk up on carbs, protein, and iron for several weeks. while proper fusion shouldn’t leave scars, the process itself involves a lot of tearing, blending, and resewing of flesh and bone. this, inevitably, requires a bit of extra energy and material to work with, as a lot of blood and tissue is naturally lost in the process.
because of all this prepwork, a magical medium (typically one specialized in healing) is highly recommended to help the process along, but not necessarily required. mediums are especially useful considering how long the fusion can last, and the excruciating physical and mental pain involved in the act. it’s really no surprise that unsupervised fusions tend to result in longer recovery periods and lasting scars, despite the determination and intentions of the partners involved.
Fusion
fusion is an exhausting, terrifying, gory process. nothing can prevent this—not love, not gentle easing, nor even the help of a medium. these things can soothe the process, but can’t eliminate the consequences.
physically, every cell is in overdrive—DNA is unpacking, migrating, and repacking at unimaginable rates, cells in one body are accommodating for the space taken by the cells of another, and tissues are unraveling into impossibly thin strands only to whip back into new positions. bones break, muscles shake, and nerves alight into a frenzy as they try to keep up with new orientations.
mentally, two consciousness are shattering-- some fragments collide and merge, while others shift and widen cracks to make room for other fragments. the process isn’t perfect—the ragged edges of emotions and memories cut and tear at one other as they vie for prominent positions in consciousness—but this heals with time.
if blood, gore, and excess emotional energy paint the location of a fusion, then the process was likely a success.
Post-fusion
much like the pre-fusion prep, post-fusion recovery involves a lot of aftercare in the form of eating, sleeping, and meditation. many mediums are happy to help in this process as well, though most Fusions prefer family or friends at this point.
recovery can last several weeks, or even months in some cases. during this recovery period, the Fusion must shift between each partner every few hours (or however long it takes them to shift), gradually increasing the time spent as each partner until they can comfortably and safely spend more than a day at a time as each partner (and the shift time has decreased to at least an hour).
after the recovery period, most Fusions should be able to comfortably spend at least a week or two at a time as each partner before shifting. the shift itself also shouldn’t take much more than 30-60 minutes, or require as much bulking-up beforehand. shifting still results in some blood loss and gore, but barely enough to leave a dent in an overall Fusion’s mass (though that doesn’t necessarily make the cleanup process any more pleasant..).
~Species Involved~
fusion typically works best between those with similar minds (everything from temperament, interpretation skills, senses, neurology, etc. are considered) and similar DNA. thus, fusion between individuals of the same species works best, then gets more difficult with each taxonomic step away from one another (by genus, then family, then order, etc). phyla seems to be the hard cut-off between potential Fusion species, though specific difficulties in fusion between taxonomic levels below that are uncertain, and may well vary between different taxonomic groups.
the relative sizes of the partners in question are also critical, as the mass taken up by one partner must be used to build the mass of the other. while it isn’t impossible for partners with size differences to fuse (since the process of fusion is largely driven by metaphysical/neurological/genetic factors), it can be a highly risky process. there does come a point where the size difference is just too much, and the partners may initially fuse, but will eventually perish due to the inconsistent mass distribution during the shifting process. however, the cut-off in relative size difference varies depending on the precautions the Fusion is willing to take to uphold the larger phase/partner (to be discussed further in the ‘Shifting’ section). more careful Fusions of this type will last longer than Fusions who are less willing to make accommodations and/or do not have proper access to accommodations.
despite all this, fusion within the same species is exceedingly rare because most individuals are content with platonic/romantic bonds, and the resulting Fusion of same species doesn’t necessarily make for a more powerful/skilled individual (since the skillsets of each partner are typically on the same relative level compared to distinct-species Fusions). distinct-species Fusions, on the other hand, usually blend diverse skillsets, and help bridge the gap that tends to leave non-fused bonds between different species lacking (we can never truly comprehend other species’ experiences, after all). this is usually appealing to those looking to fuse.
while human/nonhuman Fusions are the most popularized, there have been plenty of examples of Fusions between nonhuman species, such as crow/wolf Fusions. however, since there is much less public interest in Fusions of this sort, research into nonhuman Fusions is sadly lacking. nonhumans may very well fuse among themselves just as often as humans do with nonhumans, but we don’t currently know for sure.
there is much debate over when the ability to fuse developed in evolutionary history, and what resulting clades of animals are even capable of it. current research suggests that any organism with at least a nerve chord is physically/neurologically capable of fusion, but some level of sociality is required on the psychological/metaphysical level in order to occur. thus, fusion is common in social species (of which, many are mammalian and avian), and much less common as sociality decreases.
as a sidenote, Fusion classification is kind of a nightmare and a subject of hot debate among taxonomists. much like lichen, there’s no real systematic way to classify a Fusion unless you break them down to their component parts and individually classify those parts. but doing so ignores the complex intimacy of the parts in question, and the effects these parts have on one another on even an evolutionary level.
~Melding~
again, melding refers to the level of metaphysical fusion between the two consciousness’ contained within a Fusion. 1st gen Fusions will always be two individual beings, no matter the circumstances. this is simply the nature of initial fusion. despite what the phrase implies, there are still two consciousness’ living in one being, each with their own goals, memories, experiences, etc. yes, the individual minds mesh intimately, but they are still individuals. fully-melded Fusions, on the other hand, are one wholly-realized being. they are one consciousness, and merely have different phases of self and body. there will still be things that either phase can’t access because of distinctive neural networks (explained in more detail in the ‘Consciousness’ section), but each phase is relatively easy to access and shift to when needed.
thus we see the need for both “partners” and “phases” as terms here— “partners” typically refers to early-gens’ individual Fusion sides, while “phases” typically refers to later-gens’ melded Fusion sides.
depending on the species and souls involved in the initial fusion, the level of meld can vary. the rule of thumb is that the closer the original partners are in terms of neurological mapping and DNA, the more fully they will initially meld, and the more quickly generations after them will result in fully-melded Fusions. typically, it takes around 4-5 generations for the descendants of a 1st gen Fusion to eventually result in a seamless fusion of consciousness. though this varies widely—Fusions of the same species can take as little as 2 generations to fully meld, while Fusions whose partners belong to completely different taxonomic classes can take as many as 8 generations. thus, each successive generation after gen 1 gets more stable until a plateau of mental/physical stability and melding is reached.
though this is only a simplified description of melding, when in reality melding can vary quite a bit across family trees. the offspring of a 1st gen Fusion and a fully-melded Fusion can result in rather unpredictable melding-- the offspring may be a mid-meld just as easily as a nearly-full meld or barely-melded Fusion. there’s no real way to predict the level of offspring meld when the level of meld in the parents doesn’t quite match up. 
~Reproduction and Inheritance~
all cells in a Fusion always contain the DNA sets of both a Fusion’s phases, no matter the phase they currently hold. the in-shift DNA is simply active in the bodies’ cells, while the out-shift DNA is dormant—bundled up tight in the nucleolus until it’s reactivated for shifting. thus, the same goes for gametes, which always contain both DNA sets for a Fusion’s phases. the successful production of Fusion offspring depends entirely on the couple in question, and how their respective gametes react to one another.
Fusion x non-Fusion
Fusions can reproduce with non-Fusions of either species they are composed of, so long as they physically are that species during the act. the respective DNA for the matching species involved in the act will carry out meiosis naturally, creating a new being for that side of the resulting Fusion. the parent Fusion’s other set of DNA, however, will carry over to the offspring fully intact. since there is no matching set of DNA from the non-Fusion parent to perform meiosis with, this essentially results in a clone of those genes for that side of the offspring Fusion. as an example, if a human produces offspring with a human/wolf Fusion, only the human genetic material will undergo meiosis and result in a fresh new human ‘half’ for their offspring, while the wolf DNA attached to the Fusion parent will simply carry over fully intact.
if the non-Fusion parent carries the offspring in this pairing, they may run into difficulties during the process of pregnancy/incubation, particularly if there’s a decent size difference between the offspring’s phases, as the offspring will shift frequently during development. this could result in dangerous health issues for the carrying non-Fusion parent, and/or miscarriage if the size difference is too large.
matching Fusion x Fusion
in a pairing involving two Fusions whose species both match, the genetic material for both parents’ Fusion species will undergo meiosis and result in fresh new phases for the offspring.
disparate Fusion x Fusion
fusion can only stably handle two partners at a time; any Fusion of over two individuals is impossible. thus, the 3-way competing species genes in this pairing would automatically knock out the two species that don’t match. for example, a human/wolf Fusion paired with a human/cat Fusion would simply produce human offspring resulting from the shared human genes of their parents.
it’s MUCH more difficult to produce successful offspring from these pairings due to several factors. for one, the process of “knocking out” the non-matching parental genes is extremely difficult, considering how intimately these genes are fused in the parents. thus, successful fertilization is a rare feat. then there’s the process of pregnancy/incubation, which can pose a special set of problems for Fusions with a decent size difference between phases (since the developing offspring obviously won’t be shifting to a phase they don’t have in the first place). this, then, can result in miscarriage if the size difference of the carrying Fusion’s phases is too large. 
even if the development/birth is a success, these offspring have to deal with a special set of social issues compared to their Fusion comrades, as they aren’t actually a Fusion, but they are related to and often intimately entrenched in Fusion culture/issues. plus, they can’t connect to their parents’ other Fusion species on as intimate a level as they would if they could also shift to the same species.
Fusion offspring will shift phases during development, and both phases will develop at the same relative rate (which changes between phases). this holds true for Fusions developing in eggs as well. the parent Fusions (particularly the carrying Fusion) will feel compelled to shift with their offspring throughout the process.
if the carrying Fusion has a womb in their conceiving phase, but not in their other phase, the womb will still carry over to their other phase, but will simply have no physical opening connected to the outside world. any physiological ‘plans’ for birth will be halted temporarily as well, if the carrying Fusion is near their delivery date. some of these Fusions near their delivery date are shocked to find that they immediately fall into contractions after they shift back to their carrying phase. these wombs are still connected to the carrying Fusion’s physiological state, though, and still receive nutrients and hormones from the parent’s body. 
Fusions of live-birth x egg-laying species work similarly, if one phase does not have a uterus. however, even if the offspring was conceived during the egg-laying phase, the live-birth phase will override this reproductive setup, and the offspring will fully develop in the womb of the carrying Fusion. if both phases are egg-laying, the carrying Fusion will lay an egg, but it will always be the larger egg of the two species contained in the Fusion. this “overriding” function of development allows the developing offspring plenty of room for both their phases to develop, no matter the potential size differences between phases.
Fusions are always born as the species their carrying parent was at the time of birth, and tend to follow a quick day-by-day shifting schedule for a few weeks afterwards. any nearby Fusions (particularly the parents of the offspring) will feel psychologically compelled to shift phases in tandem with the offspring; it’s theorized that this is a subconscious measure to allow each phase of the offspring to properly socially/psychologically develop with others of the same species. after that, as the offspring’s body adjusts to the outside world, their shifting schedules slow down to once a week. they can’t spend more than a week in either phase until they pass adolescence. 
since young Fusions must allow the neurological networks of both their phases to learn and develop individually, it typically takes born Fusions twice as long to neurologically develop compared to non-Fusions. this, unfortunately, results in stigmatization in certain human societies, especially within educational settings that expect faster results.
~Shifting~
most Fusions spend about an equal amount of time in both phases, as this is most healthy and fulfilling for both sides. this can be accomplished on any variety of schedules, from daily to weekly shifts. schedules also depend heavily on respective waking/sleeping cycles. for example, nocturnal/diurnal Fusions may compromise by sleeping for a few hours between each sunrise and sunset, then shifting to either phase for nighttime/daytime hours.
though it’s possible, it’s not recommended that Fusions remain in one phase for more than two weeks, as this can cause serious mental/physical health issues. more than three weeks, however, absolutely pushes the limit of healthy standards, and should be avoided at all costs. 
sadly, half-human Fusions are often put under societal pressure to spend most of their time as humans. Fusions pressured too heavily into this have even tried to keep from shifting for up to a month at a time—and worse yet, have only allowed themselves to remain nonhuman for a day or so. this treatment leaves their nonhuman phase agitated, damaged, and full of repressed energy, which can result in dangerous consequences for the Fusion and anyone nearby when they finally allow themselves to shift. such forced behavior typically results in a permanently damaged body and psyche, with Fusions unable to control their emotions and senses in either phase. this only further stigmatizes Fusions, causing more Fusions to repress themselves and break their minds and bodies. movements to change this perception of Fusions have gained traction in recent years, which have thankfully decreased the level of phase repression, but there is a long way to go before all stigmatization is gone.
pausing in a mid-shift form is also highly dangerous to a Fusion’s mental and physical health. if stopped mid-shift, the brain and body don’t know what to do and how exactly to orient themselves, causing disorientation and—at worst—a damaged psyche. for merely one example of any number of problems with mid-shifts, the throat of a human/wolf Fusion might be able to speak human language, but the brain might only be able to interpret wolf vocalizations, leaving the Fusion speaking gibberish as an attempt at communication. then there’s also the fact that shifting naturally involves the tearing of flesh, so pausing mid-shift can leave a Fusion’s body vulnerable to infection, or may leave vital internal organs ruptured. of course, most Fusions don’t purposefully pause mid-shift, but it is a common consequence of phase repression. some Fusions have been recorded stuck in mid-shift for days at a time after repressing their shifts, which in itself results in horrific, long-term mental/physical health effects.
Fusions with a large size difference between phases must take special shifting precautions compared to Fusions whose phases are similarly-sized. as mentioned in the ‘Species Involved’ section, there is a certain point where the size difference is too great to support a Fusion beyond the initial fusion, but it is certainly not impossible for size differences to exist. these Fusions can’t just bulk up on food when shifting from the smaller to the larger phase, since the smaller phase can’t realistically take in the amount of mass needed to uphold the larger phase. instead, these Fusions must lay near raw materials (proteins, irons, salts, and other important aspects of living organisms) during the shifting process, and the Fusion’s shifting body will automatically pick up and process any nearby materials from the environment to make up for the lack of mass immediately available within the body. the easiest source of raw materials is another body, which works out great for carnivores who want to use the rest of a recent kill for their shift. this is not a palatable solution for every Fusion, however, so other Fusions with a great size difference may instead save the excess flesh dropped when shifting from the larger to the smaller phase and use it for mass-buildup during the shift from small-to-large later on. these Fusions must also be wary of any potential passerby, because the process of shifting leaves the Fusion largely unconscious. thus they can’t control what their shifting body may pick up for use towards their shifting mass. unlucky passerby in these instances may lose a limb or two by accident...
~Consciousness~
due to the nature of neurological mapping and the intimate interplay between the body and mind, it’s IMPOSSIBLE for both phases of a Fusion to be fully conscious at the same time. in 1st gen Fusions this is much more distinct, as the partner whose physical body is currently in-shift is the one primarily “steering” the body, while the other partner is more-or-less a vague passenger, observing as much as they can comprehend through the neural map of a body that they weren’t born into. 
at the same time, no phase/partner’s consciousness can EVER be FULLY “locked out” when their partner is in-shift, though they can have highly varied levels/types of awareness. some Fusions’ phases will be barely conscious when out-shift, while others’ phases will still be highly conscious and exert much influence when out-shift. 
these varying levels of consciousness can manifest in different ways depending on the Fusion’s overall meld and neurological congruency. for example, early-gen Fusions whose out-partners are highly-conscious tend to experience more mental dissonance than fully-melded Fusions whose out-phases are similarly highly conscious. early-gen Fusions have to reconcile the opinions/goals of two individuals during every decision, which isn’t always easy, no matter how much the partners may care for or respect one another. fully-melded Fusions, on the other hand, typically experience their out-phases as subconscious drivers of certain actions and decisions rather than unique consciousness’, even if their out-phases are highly-conscious
there are also things that simply can’t fully carry over from one phase to the other. while the phases do mesh more soundly in later-gen Fusions, the distinct neural maps of different bodies still cause unavoidable schisms between phases. for example, the wolf phase of a human/wolf Fusion will keep some knowledge of human language from their human phase, but much will still be lost to the distinct neural map of the wolf brain, and they won’t be able to interpret human language in the same way or to the same degree as they will in their human phase.
this schism is even apparent in memory recall, in what many call “shift fog”. basically, certain memories of events during one phase are temporarily lost when a Fusion shifts to their other phase because the neural networks of one brain simply can’t comprehend what was experienced by the other brain. for example, humans can see more colors than wolves can, so these extra colors seen in the human phase of a Fusion can’t pass over in memory to their wolf phase because these colors are literally incomprehensible to the wolf phase. thus, human memories involving these colors are much more fragmented in the wolf phase compared to memories that feature much less of these colors. these memories are not lost forever, and will return in full once the Fusion shifts back to their human phase.
~Random Facts~
Fusion lifespans tend to range midway between the lifespans each species they consist of. human/wolf fusions, for example, tend to live up to around 40-45 years since wolf lifespans range from 6-8 years, and human lifespans range from 70-80 years. this can vary depending on the amount of time a Fusion spends in either form; a human/wolf Fusion who spends more time as a human will have a longer lifespan than a Fusion of the same kind who spends more time as a wolf. both phases age at the same rate, which changes with the phase in-shift. thus, a human/wolf Fusion who is a teen in their human phase will also be a teen in their wolf phase, despite how the difference in timespan needed to reach the “teen years” of each respective species.
gender expression among Fusions is just as diverse as that of any non-fused creature—if not more so. the majority of Fusions tend to identify midway between the genders of their phases. if both phases are girls, then the Fusion overall is typically a girl, but if the genders of each phase differ, then the most common genders seen are either agender or genderfluid (with gender switching between phases). while these are the most commonly seen approaches to gender, they hardly encompass the true depth and diversity of Fusion gender expression. there are Fusions who, for example, may be genderfluid in one phase, but very much male in their other phase. this isn’t even to mention the genders that arise from Fusions who are partially comprised of a species that has no concept of gender whatsoever.
names can be complicated for Fusions, especially 1st gen and young Fusions. early-gen Fusions tend to prefer two different names for each of their partners, while later-gen Fusions are happy with one name for their whole self. sometimes this even changes across a Fusion’s lifespan.

Set In Darkness
Chapter: 53 Author name: ShannaraIsles Rating: M Warnings: None Summary: She’s a Modern Girl in Thedas, but it isn’t what she wanted. There’s a scary dose of reality as soon as she arrives. It isn’t her story. People get hurt here; people die here, and there’s no option to reload if you make a bad decision. So what’s stopping her from plunging head first into the Void at the drop of a hat?
Snowbound
"So ... I have a question."
Rory glanced up from her paperwork at the sound of Kaaras' curious voice. She was huddled next to the big hearth in the main hall, using the other end of Varric's table to get up to date on everything she needed to read and sign off on.
A heavy snow-storm had descended on Skyhold, burying the courtyard in drifts three feet deep, and that was nothing compared with what the storm had done outside the fortress. Skysend was virtually indistinguishable from the rest of the plateau from up here, the drifts so deep that people had taken to carving tunnels through them rather than trying to shovel the excess out of their way. Thankfully, they'd only had one patient in the tents that were still serving as the infirmary for the time being, and he had been relatively easy to move to the armory. There were plans to restore the roof of one of the outbuildings next to the tavern and turn it into a real infirmary, but for now, they were having to make do. No one was doing any manual work until the storm had passed over them.
With nothing else to do, and a firm insistence from everyone around her to stay indoors and not do anything silly, she'd given in and set to catching up on her paperwork, though there would invariably be more to do once contact was reestablished with the city and the world beyond it. She wasn't the only one who had sought refuge in the hall - Cullen was working at a table near the dais at the far end, since their bedroom was now inches deep in snow and the tower itself too cold to work in. Blackwall had fled the stables when it became clear that Master Dennet and his people were going to barricade the doors and wait out the storm, and was even now polishing his sword with his pouch of silks for that purpose. Cassandra, deprived of her usual spot in the upper courtyard, was absorbed in her book, re-reading Swords and Shields, Vol IV, for the umpteenth time. At the other end of the table Rory was sitting at, Varric was going over his correspondence, swearing quietly to himself every time he had to add a note or sign his name to something.
They were all stuck in here together for the foreseeable future, at least the next few hours, and until the roads cleared, there would be no venturing forth from Skyhold, either. Unfortunately, that also meant that the expected guests would not be arriving anytime soon. Despite the fact that no mention had been made of it, Rory knew Hawke was on his way, and Evelyn's family were due to arrive any day, too. With luck, both parties had found somewhere to hole up until the passes cleared. She didn't want to think about Evy's noble parents stuck in a tent in weather like this.
"A question about what?" she asked, setting her quill aside as Kaaras parked himself on a stool next to the fire.
He glanced cautiously at Varric, and lowered his voice further. "How do you woo someone?" he asked in a hoarse whisper.
Rory stared at him for a moment, her mind caught up in manifests and supply lists. Then the penny dropped. "You mean courting?" she ventured, needing a little clarification.
He nodded, his snapped horn catching the firelight. The truncated curl had healed nicely in the month or so since Haven had fallen, the horn itself slowly beginning to seal over the delicate tissues left open to the air. He wore that break with pride, too, a sign of what he had survived against the odds.
"She likes me," he murmured to her, inching closer until he was leaning on the table, his head bowed toward her own. "At least I think she does. She almost said so. But she doesn't think I can give her what she really wants. She says she wants the ideal, whatever that is, and something about flowers and poetry and candles ... What is that about?"
Wow, that conversation happened sooner than I was expecting it. But then, in the games, that conversation depended on the Inquisitor completing a silly amount of FedEx quests, in Rory's opinion, just to trigger the cutscene. It made sense that Cassandra might bite the bullet sooner in real life. Faced with this question, however, Rory found herself drawing a blank. She just didn't remember all the ins and outs of Cassandra's romance. More than half a year without a refresher in all things Dragon Age, and she was starting to forget the important things that were going to happen.
"Look," she said thoughtfully, taking Kaaras' marked hand in hers, absently testing the tender flesh of his palm with her fingertips. "You've read Swords and Shields, haven't you?"
He frowned, shaking his head. "Dorian said it was garbage," the Qunari Inquisitor admitted awkwardly.
Rory rolled her eyes. "Garbage or not, it's got all the ingredients of the romance Cassandra yearns for," she told her friend pointedly. "It's got the larger than life hero - that's you. It's got the damsel in distress - that's her, despite all evidence to the contrary. Cassandra wants to be swept off her feet, she wants to be romanced. So what she wants is for you to prove that she's worth all the embarrassment of recreating a fantasy for. She knows it isn't like that really, but it's still what she wants."
"But why want something that she knows is embarrassing?" Kaaras pressed, deeply confused by the female brain in his experience. "What's wrong with just admitting she likes me back?"
"I ... have no idea how to explain it to you," Rory admitted, frustrated with her own lack of creativity here. "Ask Josephine? She has a better handle on where you can get all the things you'll need, too. And besides, you're already on the right lines. When Varric finishes that chapter, you can give it to her, and she'll know you consider her someone worth making an effort for. Believe me, Kaaras, you're going to have to put work into proving to her that you're in this for the long haul. If you're not, back off now, while you still have your testicles intact."
He winced just at the thought of that, but the message seemed to have gotten through. "All right, so I should ask Josephine where to get all the ... romance stuff," he muttered, apparently filing this away in the back of his mind. "And you'll tell me what to do with it, right?"
"If you can't work it out for yourself, of course I will," she promised, turning her eyes down to the glowing green scar on his palm.
Her brows knitted together worriedly - it was noticeably longer than it had been when he'd first fallen from the Fade, though not by more than half an inch. But still ... the Anchor was growing. That was more than enough to worry her, even without knowing where that growth would eventually take him. She seriously hoped that Solas was slightly less of a dick in real life than he was in the games. Maybe Fen'Harel would let his friend keep the arm, if it was possible. She hoped it was possible. Her fingertips stroked gently along the raised mark.
"Is it still hurting you?" she asked softly.
Kaaras' frown changed from confusion to annoyance as he shook his head. "Not so much anymore," he assured her quietly, his eyes on the tracing touch of her fingertips. "It flares up near rifts, and near those Veil artifact things Solas wanted us to activate, but I wouldn't say it hurts anymore. Maybe I'm just used to it."
"Maybe," Rory mused thoughtfully. "Still using the ointment?"
He fidgeted awkwardly. "I, um ... I ran out, in the Fallow Mire," he confessed with a guilty cast to his expression. "And then Haven was attacked, and you've been very busy, Ror."
"Kaaras ..." She sighed, rolling her eyes at him. "This is my job. You're not taking up my time needlessly when you have a need for what I can do. I'll get you some more of the ointment. The least I can do to help is keep that scar from splitting with all the rough handling it gets."
"Thanks, Ror."
It was strange, to see that boyish smile in a face that was already carrying more burdens than it had when they'd first met. But Kaaras was a good man - better than many - and he deserved some relief from those burdens. She hoped he would follow through on his courtship of Cassandra. They both needed a way to relieve their tensions, and doing it together would be a load off everyone's mind. With both warriors currently trapped inside with little room to spar, their ability to get annoyed was ramped up to incalculable levels.
"So, Varric ..." Kaaras raised his head, leaning along the length of the table to prod the dwarf in the shoulder. "Is your bird coming, or what?"
Varric winced, rubbing his shoulder. "Say it a little louder, I don't think Cassandra heard you," he complained, glancing toward the Seeker. Rory couldn't blame him - that relationship was a little more antagonistic than she had really expected it to be. "He's coming, all right? With friends, in case someone around here decides to arrest him."
Rory felt her interest suddenly peak. Hawke is bringing friends with him? Which friends? She let her ability to eavesdrop fade as she considered this question, ostensibly studying the page in front of her. Probably not Aveline, she's busy keeping Kirkwall under control. Sebastian's the Prince of Starkhaven, so he doesn't have the leisure to come along. Isabela's got a ship; I don't even know if Carver's alive; Anders is definitely dead. So ... oh, good grief. She had to hastily turn a laugh into an extended coughing fit. Merrill and Fenris. Oh, joy. It would be a miracle if Skyhold was still standing after that visit.
Her coughing, however, drew the attention of her husband from the other end of the room. Abandoning his work, Cullen took the length of the hall in just a few strides, snatching up a cup of water as he passed the longer table where the nobles were passing the time. Dropping to his knee beside Rory, he laid his hand gently at her back.
"Easy, sweeting," he murmured to her, apparently unconcerned that Kaaras and Varric had a first-rate view of his caring for his wife. "Breathe."
Blushing in embarrassment at how badly her cover-up was backfiring on her, Rory did as she was told, letting him guide her into sipping the water slowly. "I'm fine, really," she promised. "Honestly, something got caught in my throat, that's all."
He searched her eyes, a vague hint in his expression that he had noticed her deception but didn't quite understand why she wasn't being truthful. She smiled, leaning forward to brush her lips against his cheek, murmuring to him as she did so.
"I had a thought about Hawke," she told him in a tone carefully calculated for his ears alone. "I'll tell you later."
As she drew back, she saw the comprehension in Cullen's eyes, the suspicion fading as he stroked the flyaway hairs from her brow. "The sooner we get that roof fixed, the better," he admitted reluctantly. "I am not looking forward to bedding down in here with everyone else tonight."
"Oh, Curly, you're going to break my heart," Varric drawled, unable to let that go by without comment. "We're as much a part of your marriage as you are. We should get to experience everything with you."
"Yeah, we're not going to give you anything like that to write about," Rory interjected with a low laugh. The thought of even attempting to discreetly fuck her husband when they were sharing the main hall with a good third of Skyhold's population was, oddly enough, non-conducive to the creation of arousal.
"Not even a few sounds, so I can get it just right?" the dwarven storyteller teased.
Cullen scowled at him. "My wife is not fodder for your books, Varric," he pointed out sternly.
"Oh, give it up, Curly," Varric chuckled. "I've been writing about you two since it began. Just haven't published it yet."
"And you won't," Cullen told him, somehow managing to forget the cardinal rule when talking to Varric Tethras - never tell him he can't do something.
"And I might not, if something better comes along," was the dwarf's only concession to the commander's flaring temper.
Rory laid her hands gently over Cullen's. "Something better will come along," she promised her husband, raising a brow at Varric pointedly. "If someone gets on with his part of the deal."
"I'm working on it," Varric protested easily, glancing up at Kaaras, who was reading his manuscript over his shoulder. "Thought you didn't like romances, Beanstalk?"
The Inquisitor shrugged. "I might learn to like them?"
"Uh-huh. And the Seeker might learn not to believe everything I say," Varric grinned back at him, nudging the big man away from his elbow.
"Maybe if you were a little nicer to her, she'd be a little nicer to you," Kaaras pointed out, making Rory smile with how easily he came to Cassandra's defense.
She wasn't going to intercede in this conversation, though, even if someone offered to pay her. She liked everyone involved; she didn't really want any of them to decide they didn't like her, just because she defended the wrong person at the wrong time. Instead, she looked to Cullen, still on his knee beside her.
"I promise, I'm fine, love," she assured him. "Coughing a little does not make me an invalid. All right?"
"Take a break soon," he told her, drawing his gloved thumb over her cheekbone tenderly. "You've been at this table too long."
She raised a brow in amused indignation. "Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black, somewhat?"
Cullen rolled his eyes at her, rubbing his neck as he rose to his feet. "I am supposed to be joining Dorian in the library in a short while," he informed her. "I believe you should come with me."
"Oh, all right," she conceded with teasing reluctance. With the storm blowing outside, there were very few places she could go, anyway. "Only if I get to curl up in his comfy chair and read while you're both discussing the finer points of Tevinter literature."
The secret beauty of his hidden smile warmed whiskey-lit eyes as he looked down at her, squeezing her hand affectionately. "I look forward to the image that will present," he told her, as much a promise to make certain Dorian gave up that armchair of his for a little while as anything else he might have said.
As Cullen strode away, returning to his temporary desk and Rylen swearing over whatever it was he was reading, Kaaras grinned at Rory. "And that isn't romance, huh?" he asked in amusement.
"Not the way you need to know it, no," she told him with a low laugh of her own. "Go and ask Dorian to find you some reference books, you big baby. Then you can go and read with her."
"I might just do that." The Qunari rose to his feet, bending almost double to pat her midriff affectionately. "See you later, baby."
Varric caught Rory's resigned glance. "Let me guess ... he talks more to the baby than to you," he smirked, laughing out loud at the mild scowl he got in return.
"Anyone would think it was his," she admitted, her mood brightening as the dwarf's laughter died. "Mind you, in this place, I need never worry if the kid wanders off. You're all more excited about this than I am."
"Oh, I'm not," Varric assured her. "I'll read to it, but that's about it. I don't do babies."
"You know, that's actually pretty encouraging." Rory laughed softly, nodding to him as she picked up her quill once again. At least there was someone here who didn't look at her and instantly imagine the baby. She had a feeling that tendency was only going to get worse as the months went on.
And if she'd worked it out correctly ... she was going to give birth around the same time as the Inquisition laid siege to Adamant. Oh, yeah. Great timing, Rory.

Surgery Which Is Popular Looks Enhancer http://bit.ly/2V8CAhz
By Anthony Taylor
The opinions of people about plastic surgery are quite torn in half even until now. Lots would say that there is no necessity regarding such procedure because nothing beats natural beauty. The other half of population would sure blatantly refuse to agree about that because undergoing in such processes are mainly form of self improvements. However one may look at the possibility of surgery, one thing is for sure, it could make few more confident about how they look at themselves and how they would feel about it so long as it all turns out great at the end. Most women are opting into procedures like thread lift Greenburgh because of certain advantages that comes along with it. It basically has the same purpose with the face lifting but they are not completely the same. Though, these two are used to treat skin laxity conditions. These conditions are the effects of aging on the facial skin like jowls and cheek drooping which can be a little disturbing for people who are extra concern of their appearance. These days, the thread lifting became more popular than the other. Of course there is a reason behind that given the fact that face lifting was the first surgery to get introduced between the two. To make people understand the difference, here is a brief explanation about it. Thread lift is a wound free procedure. The steps that shall be done would only involve a temporary lifting on those areas of face that has noticeable sutures. There will be no skin to be removed in any spots of the face. But, it will be suspending some of the portion that would be needing a slight stitch. The effect it would bring on the skin would show a little pulling slightly aback making it quite tighter than it looks. The threads which were used are fighting the aging down below through the surges brought by collagen. That would normally be one to promote the healing response and it definitely show on the threaded parts of the skin. The response of the skin to collagen normally would have the facial skin glowing and radiating. It as well can promote wound and scar healing. That is because the treatment is starting on the inside and internal parts of skin layers. Face lift on the other hand would involve uses of sedatives and anesthesia. The procedure could last a good five hours since there is an incision in the ear and extended up in the hairline part. This is how the skin are being lifted as the excess are removed after. However, once the removal is done, the tissues on the face normally is tightened. That removes the sagginess and the damages. They still could look young and youthful the way they want to. The only drawback is the pain that could be felt after the procedure because there are wounds. Out of these descriptions, it normally shows what the differences are between the two and it is up to the preference of the person if which one they are confident to try. Nonetheless, the thread lifting has a lesser time needed to recover because there are no major wounds. But both promote a youthful end product.

Title: Blood of the Brotherhood Fandom: Mass Effect: Andromeda Relationship: Sara Ryder x Jaal Rating: M Chapter: 8/? Cross posted on AO3 / FFN First // Previous / Next
Part Two of a DOUBLE CHAPTER WOOHOO POSTING EVENT
During their first trip to Voeld, Ryder had been in awe. Yes, it had been cold and there had been nothing quite as annoying as SAM reminding her about the limits of her core body temperature, but beyond all that she had appreciated the quiet, icy beauty of the planet’s surface.
Now she missed SAM’s voice and she found the quiet, icy beauty less enjoyable. She didn’t need SAM to tell her that temperatures were dropping but it would have been nice, for old time’s sake.
There was a familiar pain in her back as she pushed forward and it jolted with each step she took. She didn’t bother looking where she was going. There was nothing to see - nothing she could see- through the snow that came at her from all directions. Heavy, hard little balls that bounced off her armor that made an audible plink as they pelted her helmet.
When Ryder couldn’t walk any longer she dropped to her knees, crawling forward through drifts as high as her shoulders. White and black, that’s all she could see. White from the snow all around her. Black from the back of her eyelids, drooping, the urge to return to sleep chasing her from the last remaining fringes of consciousness.
Packed snow gave way to something slick and hard. A frozen lake. At least out here the snow didn’t crowd around her, working to bury her before she was even dead. But she was more exposed, the wind and pelting snow biting through her armor.
She couldn’t hear their song but she saw the glow of the yevara beneath the ice, inches from her face. They passed beneath her palms and she rubbed against the ice as if she could pet them. Jaal had told her how important they were to the angara, the living remnants of their past civilization and their life before the Scourge.
It seemed as good a place to rest as any.
Ryder pressed her face as close to the ice as her helmet would allow. It wasn’t worth fighting the weariness that seeped through her bones. She couldn’t even say what had woken her and why she had stumbled forward to begin with. It all seemed so pointless now.
She was tried and the yevara would sing her to sleep.
- x -
When the Nomad finally signaled for extraction, Lexi made quick work of dispersing the lingering crew that hung around the cargo bay. “Everyone! Clear this area and stay out from under foot! I don’t want to see anyone near the medbay until I’ve signaled you all, am I understood?”
Vetra opened her mouth to protest, but even Peebee knew better than to argue with the doctor and she waved her hand in front of her throat, motioning for Vetra to stay silent.
“Good.” Lexi nodded, pleased with how well behaved the crew was, as they scampered away from the hold. She noticed Gil’s head poking from over the railing and she knew that Liam had purposely left his door open as he and Drack hid just out of sight, but none of those distractions mattered.
She had an excess of energy that left her restless as she waited. Without the patient in front of her, it was difficult for her to direct her thoughts into productive planning. How long had Ryder been on Voeld? What were the extent of her injuries sustained during the initial fight and how had they been treated? Without that information she was left to plan for any number of situations and none were pleasant.
The Tempest shook all around her as they landed and the floor began to heave, the ramp lowering for the Nomad to drive directly into the belly.
It was hard to say how the moment would pass before it had happened.
Sometimes things would unfold around her as if in slow motion, each heart beat and pump of blood slowed down to a thousand times their natural pace, her hands just as slow and clumsy in response.
Other times she blinked and the damage had been done, a cavity filled with septic waste or brain activity snuffed out.
It happened like that now. An empty cargo bay in front of her when she took a deep breath in, a press of metal as the Nomad rolled to a halt when she let the breath out. Jaal held Ryder in his arms, her helmetless face pressed against his chest and her arms folded loosely in her lap. She looked like she was -
“She’s sleeping,” Cora said as she emerged behind Jaal. She had regained the color that she had lost while watching the video, but her eyes were still glazed and far off. Lexi made a note to check in with her after she had done a preliminary check on Ryder. “She’s… snoring and everything.”
Sure enough Lexi could hear it, the gentle vibration of breath through Ryder’s nose.
Lexi gave a wan smile and looked up at Jaal. “Take her to the medbay. Sleeping or not, she gets a full check up.”
As the two walked away from the hold, Lexi could hear Liam’s ghostly laugh behind her. “Just like her to take a nap while we’re all worried.” The joke almost echoed in the silence as half a dozen eyes trailed the limp legs dangling from Jaal’s embrace.
- x -
It was one of those things that she hadn’t thought about until recently, but Ryder was beginning to find that she did not enjoy the sensation of waking up on a numb arm to a bright light in her face while nursing a drug specific hangover.  
“How kind of you to finally join us.”
That dry, merciless tone. It didn’t matter that the light made her head hurt and pushing herself up made her want to vomit, she had to see. She had to confirm that what she was hearing was true.
“Easy now,” Lexi warned, her hands pressing gently, yet firmly, against Ryder’s chest. “You were lucky that we found you before you lost anything more serious.”
“What?” Ryder raised one arm in the air and tried to wiggle the one pinned beneath her. She counted ten fingers, craned her neck to try and see her toes.
“I’m kidding. See how it feels to be worried?” A joke, wrapped in a lesson, delivered with the cool tone of a disinterested physician.
It wasn’t a dream.
Tears sprung from Ryder’s eyes and she was too glad to wipe them away, not even the least bit ashamed as they slid down her cheeks. Maybe at another time she would wonder about whether it was good for crew morale for the pathfinder to sob, but right now it felt good.
Lexi’s warm hands framed Ryder’s face, the friendly blue face coming into focus through the glaze of tears. “I knew you would like the joke,” she said, her thumbs tracing circles across Ryder’s cheeks.
They stayed like that for a while, Lexi perched on the edge of the bed, holding Ryder as she cried. She alternated between stroking Ryder’s hair, face and arms, making low, comforting sounds as she did.
“I’m okay,” Ryder finally said, the last of her tears drying against her lips. “I’m all out of water.”
“I’m not surprised given how dehydrated you are.” Lexi stood up, pulling out a data pad as she did. It was back to business, the softness of her tone replaced by the pointed inflection of a doctor. “I have a few questions. I’m sorry if this is a lot for you, and you can let me know if you need to stop, but I have to be sure.”
Ryder nodded, a go ahead for questions.
“You have a new scar on your shoulder that was healed professionally, but you have one on your back that was… not.”
Ryder winced as she remembered Jaal’s knife cutting into her shoulder and the further damage she had done trying to hold onto the shuttle as it flew away. That had been another tube of medi gel - “wasted,” as Murphy had reminded her for the second time.
“My back?” she asked, her voice heavy with confusion and exhaustion. She had just woken up, but after that cry she was ready for another nap.
“It was stitched by hand. It’s healed well enough,” Lexi shrugged as if that was all that mattered, but her eyes were hooded and wary. “When did you sustain the injuries?”
Hand stitching on her back? That didn’t make any sense. Ryder knew for a fact that Lia had used medi gel, had felt the barely there knot of  scar tissue herself as she had changed into the jumpsuit she had been given.
She tried to think back to her few moments of lucidity on Voeld, crawling through the snow. Her back had hurt then. Had something happened after her meeting with Lonny?
Thoughts of Lonny darkened her expression and she hunched her shoulders. She could still feel his hands pressed against hers, that sad far away look on his face as he asked her about her school days.
“Ryder, what’s wrong?”  Lexi’s hands were on her shoulders, a firm and friendly grasp to bring her back to the present.
“It’s… I don’t remember,” she lied. “I can’t remember a lot of the - “ she stumbled, “ - times that have happened.”
“You can’t remember the times that have happened?”
Shit, that was a half assed lie, but she couldn’t give away that she knew how much time had passed. Maybe it was stupid of her to keep her time with Lonny secret, and she assured herself that she would talk about it… later. When she was ready.
“I’m sorry, Lexi, I’m really tired. Can I sleep?”
Lexi didn’t say anything and Ryder avoided looking up, just  in case her face gave her away and Lexi pressed for more solid answers.
“Jaal has been asking to see you,” Lexi finally said. “He’s been… distant since the ambush. I’ll let him know that you’re sleeping.”
As much as she wanted to see Jaal, she was tired and she didn’t think she could keep quiet about what had happened if questioneds. She knew, even without seeing him, that he would be blaming himself for her being shot.
She was tired, but she owed him answers.
“That’s okay, you can send him in,” she said. “I think I have enough energy to talk for a bit.”
This time she did look up, just in time to see Lexi’s knowing, half smile. “Mhmm, of course. I’ll let him know. Be right back.”
Ryder let her eyes rest in the few moments of silence that she had been afforded  as Lexi searched for Jaal. The quiet was nice, but it was the smell that Ryder appreciated the most. Or, rather, the lack of smell.
She shifted, tried to roll onto her back but stopped when she felt the sharp, bright pain as the bed pressed against her.
“Oh, what the fuck?” she hissed.
“Pathfinder, I am happy that you’re awake but I have something to share with you. I thought it best to wait until Dr. T’Perro was no longer in the room.”
“SAM!” Ryder shot up, her fingers reaching for her ears. Her comms had been taken, both her link to the exiles and the block against SAM. “Oh, SAM, I missed your voice.”
“I am detecting a foreign body located just below your skin.”
A vein near her eye throbbed. “What?”
“I am having a hard time deciphering what it is, but I have pinpointed the location to the wound on your back.”
Her fingers found where a bullet had punctured her just a few days before. She had been healed, she was sure of it, but now the whole area was sore. The closer she inched to the wound the sharper the pain became. She willed herself to keep going, brushing her fingers against the lump of skin that had been stitched back together.
Lump. Not a good thing.
“SAM, what’s going on?”
“I am unfamiliar with the material that is present in your body, but it cannot be picked up by the ship’s medical scanners. I withheld the information from Dr. T’Perro when she asked for an internal report.”
“You can lie? Why would you do that?”
Before SAM could answer, the medbay doors opened up. Ryder’s attention, the bewilderment from her interrupted conversation with SAM still written across her face, snapped to the door.
Her heart hammered as she took in the hunch of his shoulders and the frown that creased his face. Jaal had the same hard look in his eyes that he’d had on Eos while hovering over her as he pressed her head into the dirt.

Feral Beginnings; Part 7
Kolina hadn't eaten. She hadn't slept. Not for a long time. It didn't even occur to her those were priorities. She only had one thing on her mind. Stay on guard. Watch her back. Protect the Heart. Protect the Garou. They were fast healers, naturally. But sometimes there was poison. Sometimes there was just exhaustion. If they needed light and energy, she would give it all.
The days were welded together since the attack on the Sept. She has no idea where that small group ran off to with Hemlata. And she hadn't seen them since. Nadya. Alle. Lumi. The others. Edmond's stupid brilliant face.
Her chest tightened.
Even that young annoying Shadow Lord went with them. She didn't miss that one so much. But wherever they were, she hoped they were okay.
As she sat and studied different healing herbs she collected recently, a little hand appeared and pointed at her chest. Ransom didn't speak much around her, thankfully. They solely relied on body language and eye contact. Or lack thereof. He never looked at her face.
He pointed again at her apparent scar. All she could sense was the curiosity.
She thought about it. And realized she hadn't thought about it in a long time. Not since Wilhelm asked her how she got it.
"You want know. How got scar?"
He nodded.
Kolina sat up straight and stared at nothing but air, trying to recall what Homids called a memory...
"Are you ready, Forepaw? All your training has led to several moments from here on out. But your battle alongside them, hinges on this one thing. From pup to woman. If the spirit accepts you, you will be one of them. Another vengeful sister. They will embrace you with open arms. Of course, it will probably be the hardest thing you've ever done. I've seen it before. It's not pretty. And if you fail? If the spirit is not pleased with you. Will you leave? Go in shame? I hear a Theurge is supposed to be good with spirits. That would be embarrassing. In front of your mentor too....huh."
"You. Talking. Too much."
Calliaope laughed, muffling it with a hand over her mouth.
Forepaw didn't miss the grimace of discomfort that came with it, despite Callie's best efforts to hide it. The Lupus would not say a thing, however. She knew how her friend relished her pride.
"And they call me the Ragabash. You got jokes, Forepaw."
"Am...not. To be. Joke." She looked at her friend. And the girl smiled, cracking the dry black plates of her broken skin. A little bit of blood welled up, but the Metis quickly wiped it away as if it was just some drop of water from the skies.
"Hey. Maybe we'll die here instead. Wouldn't that be fun."
Forepaw opened her mouth to respond, having no idea why the Metis would think dying anywhere outside of battle would be fun, but firm hands suddenly came down on their shoulders.
They were no longer alone.
Three women stood around them.
Alexis Mavros. Carries-the-Full-Moon. Alpha and Philodox of the Red Water pack. Raised within the Amazons of Diana circle.
Vita Maren. Charges Under Fire. Mighty Beta and viscous Ahroun. An adopted Amazon sister from the Fenrir tribe.
And Martina Hope. Walks-with-Light. Master healer. A mystical Theurge and a former nun of the Order of Our Merciful Mother.
All this was too much for the poor Lupus to ever say aloud. But she knew in the purity of her wolf heart. This was her pack. These were her people. Her sisters.
And she was soon to join them.
Martina passed them and without a word...slipped past the gauntlet, quickly joined by Alexis and Vita as they entered the Umbral realm.The two pups hesitated, then dutifully followed. As they stood side by side, they side stepped out of reality. Coming face to face with a wild massive bonfire that took on a life of its own in spirit world.
From the coils of multi-colored flames, a woman stepped forward. She wore a flowing white Grecian gown that spread out like wings as if she was drifting through water. She had three faces. Sometimes two. Sometimes one. But three distinct features that constantly switched back and forth. A young maiden. A concerned mother. And the wise wrinkled face of a crone.
Her hair was long, wild, short, smooth, black, golden, grey and silver. Her arms were two, then four, then six, then two again.
The powerfully mystical Triptich spirit of Pegasus’ brood. Also known as the Trune Goddesses. Her presence made Forepaw’s heart thump with anticipation. Beneath the gaze of the spirit, the cubs would be judged. To be one with the Red River pack. Or unworthy. It was the Goddesses decision.
Martina, off to the side, took one step forward. She instructed them to strip themselves of any material items. Once they did, she took a ceramic bowl from Alexis and began to draw symbols on their bodies with light blue paint.
The raw mineral of the substance tickled Forepaw's sense of smell. But she remained still.
"You passed your tests. You both have proven yourselves despite many stumbles. You are selfless, and you defend the weak. And aid women of all species. As Pegasus demands. You are avengers. Tenacious like vines of the Wyld. You have a duty to more than just yourself. Your pack. Your Sept. Your Tribe. Your Nation. Will you cast aside the weakness of selfish desires and take up the Labrys against corruption? Will you fight our enemies? Will you join your sisters and turn the water red with your victories?"
Both Forepaw and Calliope grunted, their Rage and Amazon pride welling within them, threatening to burn the edges of their patience. They nodded, the air thickening with promise and spiritual prowess.
"If you are ready. Then step forth and present your flesh to Pegasus and the Triune Goddesses."
Martina stepped away as she spoke, done with painting her runes on the young Furies. Forepaw felt the heat of the fire washing over her, feeding the dance of her wild soul. She snarled and transformed, allowing her limbs to grow. Her body strengthened. Her teeth sharpened. And her Homid nails turned into claws. She took on the half-beast, half-human form of Glabro and roared at at the flames. She didn't have to look over to know Callie was doing the same.
This time. The spirit spoke directly to them. In a thousand voices. A chorus of every Black Fury that ever sought her aid. "You must never flee a battlefield in unprepared, craven fear. You must always be the last ones on the battle field in retreat." The fire grew, fanned by a sudden breeze. "You must focus your Willpower at all times. Never lose yourself to mindless thoughts. And you will undergo quests to seek wisdom and insight into your fates. Remember....the future is always unclear, but never out of your reach."
Forepaw and Callie raised their claws, goosebumps crawling across their skin. A sign they understood.
"You must embrace sacrifice. To be a Black Fury is to know what Gaia gives to her children. To be in this pack is to understand the roles of maiden, mother, and crone. Innocent warrior. Experienced defender. Wise leader.” Her voice and face changed appropriately to match every phrase she slowly spoke. “All of them decided upon the one thing man cannot ever claim to know. The blessing woman carries. The creation of life. Both a painful journey, and an experience that transcends material love. Place your claw to your right breast."
Forepaw, buzzing with anxiety and anticipation, slipped her claws beneath the soft swell of her flesh. She refused to look down. Staring into the heart of the fire.
"However, you two have yet to fully comprehend what it is to be a mother. You appreciate the idea of it now. You respect the rank it entails. Perhaps you even covet it. A Lupus that prays for the day she will take a mate and birth her own. And the Metis that dreams about a sense of motherhood that will never come. For you, Calliope, the sacrifice you make tonight does not carry the same weight. But it is still a gesture the spirits acknowledge."
The fluid spirit looked them both in the eye. "Do you commit?"
With affirmative snarls, guttural and deep within them, they acted.
Forepaw tore into her breast. Her skin tore like nothing. There was no resistance. From her ribs to her collar bone, she dissected herself mercilessly. She did not hold back. She ran red with her own blood. The excess tissue of her chest spilled to her feet. She fell to one knee and shredded the extra skin. Like strips of useless meat, she had no more need for it. Except as an offering to prove to the spirits that she was willing to give up half of one future and dedicate it to the fight against Gaia's enemies.
She would be more than maiden or mother. She would be an Amazon.
Forepaw roared again as her body worked to mend itself. The magic of Martina's ritual and runes kept the wound from completely healing, leaving a curved scar where her breast used to be.
The fire crackled. And the spirit was gone.
Something within the flames popped and a shower of light embers floated into the dark Umbral night sky where the moon hung heavy. Heavier than it ever wold in the Tellurian.
A firm warmth washed over Forepaw. Some foreign sense of acceptance. A shift within herself, yet given from without. She didn't completely understand. But she didn't have to. She closed her eyes and just embraced it.
The night filled their life with the sound of the spiritual forest around them.
Finally, Forepaw looked over and saw Callie had completed the ritual as well, adding another scar to her already ruined skin. Callie looked to Alexis, but her Alpha did not reciprocate whatever longing glance the Metis gave. Instead, she nodded in appropriate approval of their actions.  
Martina came close, ending the rite with a hand upon Forepaw's head. "Stand. You are no longer Niece, but Sister. You are no longer just Forepaw the Lupus, but Kolina the Amazon."
When Kolina returned to what the Homids called present time, interrupting her own meditative dream state, she caught Ransom staring at her with his arms full of herbs. Had she collected all of those while telling her story? She wondered if he even understood her tale. The Common tongue of Homids was not her strongest attribute.
"Sacrifice sounds easy." Ransom chirped.
Kolina nodded, taking some of the bundle from the small Metis. "Yes. Is not so easy for to giving the sacrifice. Must be selfless. Must be strong. In different way. You will know."
"We don't need help."
As usual, Kolina felt a moment of hesitation while her Lupus brain tried to translate Ransom's odd way of speaking in opposites. Yet another language barrier. "Yes. Am needing help here. Is good. But feeling stuck." The longer the pond sat, the more it stagnated.
Kolina stood and headed back to the base of operations and main defense line Reya had set up near the Heart. She ignored her fatigue, replacing it with a new determination. She had to find a way to reach their friends on the outside. Some sort of message perhaps. Or a sign. Anything to let them know they were still alive and fighting within the mist. To let them know not all was lost. Yet....

3 Myths About C-Sections That Are Hurting Moms
C-section births are extremely common in many developed countries. In fact, in 2015, 32 percent of babies in the United States were born via Cesarean delivery [1]. This accounts for well over a million births.
What is astounding about this fact is that, in the majority of cases, moms are only given minimal information about the procedure or how to recover optimally from it.
This comes to the detriment of many moms. Moms are often left wondering how to care for their body, how to return to exercise, and, unfortunately, assume many of their post-surgery aches and pains are normal.
Let’s bust three myths about C-sections that can potentially cause harm to moms.
Myth 1: You Cannot Perform Any Exercise for at Least Six Weeks Following a C-Section
I couldn’t disagree more with this statement. In fact, I think it will help most women’s recovery process to begin gentle stretches and basic exercises in the early weeks after surgery.
Unfortunately, most C-section mamas are left to their own devices when it comes to seeking out quality rehab information after their procedure. This is particularly frustrating as it typically isn’t the case with patients recovering from other types of surgery.
Case in point: my grandmother recently underwent major knee surgery, and was not only seen by the physiotherapist in the hospital soon after the procedure, but was also referred to see a physiotherapist three times a week, and given specific daily exercises to perform at home.
Meanwhile, women must seek a physiotherapist on their own after undergoing a C-section — we highly recommend a pelvic floor physiotherapist, who will be best qualified to help with this specific recovery — not to mention trying to find quality C-section core rehab advice on the Internet, while also caring for a newborn!
As a general rule, starting around the two- to three-week postpartum mark — or whenever the mom feels comfortable enough to lie flat on the back and in the side-lying position — I recommend my clients begin doing a mini circuit of gentle bodyweight exercises for five to 10 minutes, most days of the week.
The exercises included in this circuit should focus on breathing, stretching, as well as activating the glutes, pelvic floor, and deep abdominal muscles. They will also help retrain the body for good alignment and posture. This is very beneficial after such an intense surgery, not only for the physical body function, but also for mental and emotional health.
When performing any exercise in the weeks and months after a C-section, do be cautious and avoid unnecessary moderate and heavy lifting in the early weeks (and even months) after the procedure. My general advice is that, whenever possible, you avoid lifting anything heavier than your baby for the first six weeks postpartum. You don’t want to overexert yourself, and shouldn’t perform anything more strenuous than daily household work. Remember that you underwent a serious abdominal surgery, and therefore should remain on the safe side while your incision is healing. Of course, if you have other children at home or need to carry the groceries in from the car, you’re going to have to lift heavier objects than your baby. Ensure you do so with good alignment and by using supportive breathing techniques.
Cue yourself to “exhale on exertion”, meaning that you begin your exhale right before you lift and continue exhaling throughout your lift. As you lift the load, you can do a kegel action with your pelvic floor, in which you try to scoop the pelvic floor muscles upward.
More specific stretches and exercises can be seen here:
3 Exercises You Must Do Immediately Post Pregnancy
Returning to Exercise After a C-Section
Myth 2: My Pelvic Floor Is Fine Since I Didn’t Have a Vaginal Birth
If you did not birth your baby vaginally, this doesn’t automatically mean that the pelvic floor will not require any re-training of its muscle function. Pregnancy is no joke; it causes stress on the body, regardless of how “easy’ your pregnancy was and how your birth occurred.
Carrying a baby through pregnancy can result in pelvic floor muscle weakness or excessive tension or tightness in your pelvic floor muscles. Both weakness and high tension in the pelvic floor can cause issues such as incontinence, pelvic pain, frequent urination, or low back pain.
Plus, the downward pressure of your baby on your pelvic floor muscles can stretch muscles and their connective tissues, leaving them more lax than normal. Additionally, pregnancy and postpartum hormones in and of themselves will cause the connective tissues of the body to soften, which can affect the strength or speed of the contraction of the pelvic floor muscles.
Although the risks of some types of pelvic floor muscle dysfunction may be more likely in women who gave birth vaginally rather than through a C-section, this does not mean that women who had C-sections will not experience incontinence, and in fact, research shows that, “Caesarean delivery is not associated with a significant reduction in long term pelvic floor morbidity compared with spontaneous vaginal delivery [2].”
If you are experiencing any leaking or feeling like you are having difficulty or discomfort with bathroom trips, be sure to see a pelvic floor physiotherapist. Most moms can really benefit from some attention and re-training type exercises that focus on pelvic floor function.
Moreover, the incision healing process itself from a C-section can potentially affect the pelvic floor function. One way this often shows up for people is during intercourse. Many moms will report pain, burning, or stinging in the lower abdomen with vaginal penetration or clitoral stimulation.
This can be a product of the healing C-section scar, as scar tissue is laid down and adhesions to tissues in the abdominal wall are created. Once your scar is healing well (a month to six weeks postpartum), be sure to begin some gentle massage work around and over your scar, in order to maintain good blood flow to the area.
Myth 3: C-Sections Are a Failed Birth
NO! NO! NO!
There are so many equally wonderful ways to birth a baby, and this includes C-sections.
Emergency, scheduled, a few minutes of labor or many hours of labor preceding your C-section — it’s all good. C-section is giving birth. You gave birth. You have every reason to be proud of your accomplishment.
Try to avoid “birth boxing” yourself, i.e. believing that one type of birth is the best and only way to successfully give birth. There is nothing better or worse about an unmedicated vaginal birth at home, compared to a scheduled C-section. Furthermore, as C-sections can often occur in emergency circumstances, they can be coupled with a lot of difficult-to-process emotions.
Birth is unpredictable, raw, and uncontrollable. Yes, you can plan, prepare, and have preferences, but babies are born how they need to be born. I highly recommend speaking with a therapist, counselor, or coach that works with traumatic birth experiences if you’re finding yourself having difficulty processing your birth.
Do allow yourself to feel whatever you need to feel mentally and emotionally after your birth. It’s OK to be disappointed, confused, or left wondering why things happened the way they did. However, don’t think for one second that you did something wrong, or that your body let you down. You did amazing and your body did exactly what it was supposed to do.
Birth is birth is birth. There are different ways to birth babies, just as there are different ways to have a body!

Surgery Which Is Popular Looks Enhancer
By Anthony Taylor
The opinions of people about plastic surgery are quite torn in half even until now. Lots would say that there is no necessity regarding such procedure because nothing beats natural beauty. The other half of population would sure blatantly refuse to agree about that because undergoing in such processes are mainly form of self improvements. However one may look at the possibility of surgery, one thing is for sure, it could make few more confident about how they look at themselves and how they would feel about it so long as it all turns out great at the end. Most women are opting into procedures like thread lift Greenburgh because of certain advantages that comes along with it. It basically has the same purpose with the face lifting but they are not completely the same. Though, these two are used to treat skin laxity conditions. These conditions are the effects of aging on the facial skin like jowls and cheek drooping which can be a little disturbing for people who are extra concern of their appearance. These days, the thread lifting became more popular than the other. Of course there is a reason behind that given the fact that face lifting was the first surgery to get introduced between the two. To make people understand the difference, here is a brief explanation about it. Thread lift is a wound free procedure. The steps that shall be done would only involve a temporary lifting on those areas of face that has noticeable sutures. There will be no skin to be removed in any spots of the face. But, it will be suspending some of the portion that would be needing a slight stitch. The effect it would bring on the skin would show a little pulling slightly aback making it quite tighter than it looks. The threads which were used are fighting the aging down below through the surges brought by collagen. That would normally be one to promote the healing response and it definitely show on the threaded parts of the skin. The response of the skin to collagen normally would have the facial skin glowing and radiating. It as well can promote wound and scar healing. That is because the treatment is starting on the inside and internal parts of skin layers. Face lift on the other hand would involve uses of sedatives and anesthesia. The procedure could last a good five hours since there is an incision in the ear and extended up in the hairline part. This is how the skin are being lifted as the excess are removed after. However, once the removal is done, the tissues on the face normally is tightened. That removes the sagginess and the damages. They still could look young and youthful the way they want to. The only drawback is the pain that could be felt after the procedure because there are wounds. Out of these descriptions, it normally shows what the differences are between the two and it is up to the preference of the person if which one they are confident to try. Nonetheless, the thread lifting has a lesser time needed to recover because there are no major wounds. But both promote a youthful end product.
