I was able to write down the first thing I dreamt about. Then went back to sleep. I had a few other dream segments. They came out pretty lucid. I'm now starting to remember a dream I had of my old best friend.
In the dream, I was looking through drink and pudding mixes. I'm sure I forgot some of them. I immediately tried to memorize them when I woke up, forgetting some because it was such a vivid dream. There were several pudding mixes I was looking at. And because I could've added milk or water to them, which could create more recipes that my brain could comprehend. I took notice of a box of pumpkin with pistachio jello instant pudding, seeing a victorian 'm' on the front. Strawberry mix, which I put into some bread pudding. There was a pastel green mix too, that looked like lucky charms. I can't remember what the mix was from. Or if it even was a drink mix. The other thing was a cream tea. It was turning into cream tea, because I was adding milk to it. Audio from hannah montana was playing through my head, leading into my next dream. I'm pretty sure it was the next dream and not the first one. I was now in algebra class. I didn't take any notes from yesterday or days ago, seeing the font words on the smartboard. 'notes' and something else. The few papers I had had notes written down on it, but not the actual assignment. I missed the notes that I needed for today's class. I had no work done on my paper. I did this in real life sometimes. I contemplating asking my sweet teacher for the notes but I felt intimidated to do so. Even though he's not a harsh/strict or stern guy at all. I was digging through my bookbag, looking through stuff I took from home. A flying insect flew out from my bag, flying through the air. The girl across the room who was staring at me noticed it, very annoyed or uncomfortable by it's presence. More disgusted by me. There was something pink and important I saw in my bag that I can't remember. It connected to that other dream. I assume the strawberry mix, or maybe it was strawberry wafers. I looked down at myself and saw I was wearing black cargo pants. Probably had a babytee on. After this, I woke up in my living room. I was crying, thinking about how much I miss algebra class/school. So this must take place in the present/current age. It was dark in the room, nighttime. The app for youtube was on the tv. I saw a thumbnail with my partner on it, breaking me out of my tears and sadness. It felt like a light came over me.
Other thumbnails showed felix and peter pan from ouat; videos that I watched more than 10 years ago now. I scrolled through them, then clicked on netflix. I hate netflix and their hypersexual movies, neverending supernatural genres. I turned on a series that looked interesting. It was about a couple. Which I would never click on, since that's a giveaway something's gonna have sex in it, and it makes me uncomfortable or bored. I like nerdy shit or action movies. I didn't like disney much as an kid. I watched the show as if I was actually conscious and awake, it was so vivid. The intro faded in black, couple laying together; the camera closed on on their faces. They probably were kissing. It implied an afterglow or after sex. They were laughing happily. The girl revealed to the guy that she was bisexual, which ended up pissing him off. He became possessive and a stalker. I feel as if this wasn't a dream but it was; a girl with blunt bangs cut her bangs more. I don't think it was something I saw while awake. A brazillian mom then stood outside the door to her husband's bedroom, hearing moaning from a woman. She closed it. There was hurt in her eyes. I knew that he was cheating on heshe caught him cheating.

Beyond Fucked Up:
In the Gardens of Gehenna

I memorized what I just dreamt about. I've been waking up/tossing and turning for exactly 10-12 hours now. I didn't dream much at all, most of the night. And it was around the afternoon when I fell asleep. In the first dream, I was at my sister's house. She had made food. I wish I could know what it all was. My niece and mom were there. I sorted though a box of bearclaw danishes that my mom had, picking three out. One fell apart/collapsed. They were a raspberry or strawberry flavor. My sister had made cream cheese danishes. I wanted to eat some. It is one of my favorite foods. My grandma has the original recipe, which my sister also enjoys. I wanted to photograph the berry danishes, upset later because the homemade ones had all gotten eaten. I cried, pissed off about it. I feel like there was something on the tv. I don't remember what happened next, or if there was a dream that followed this. I recall now, it was me at home with my brothers. We were avoiding sleep. It was late at night. My youngest brother stayed with me on the couch, unaware that I was unscrolling a paper towel that had porno frames/segments playing on it. My brother left it behind, before he went somewhere outside.
In the other dream, I was with my dad's family. It was halloween. My cousins were harassing me, well, the one in real life, who does. He's always been very rapey with me. He placed pieces of dog shit on my head, which I had caught on immediately. I almost ingested the dirty air, knocking most off my head. 'I knew you were gonna do that..' I said. My attention went towards the vhs tapes in front of me, country style, some '80s and older. A plastic bag sat under a bundle/stack of them, guessing those were rentals. One tape said, 'romania.' It looked like the movie stigmata.
I had ziplock bags of food that I was taking home, to feed my family. They got obviously thrown away by him, not lost. I got very agitated. Digging through my cousins belongings, nothing of my family was anywhere. 'Your pedophilic son who tried to molest me on multiple occasions, lost my food..' I spoke, pissed. Their mom has never liked me. She always has a indifferent, smug resting bitch face around not just me, but the rest of my family. I wanted to dig through the garbage bags. I found one bag, full of pizza. It had a bite taken out of one, which one of my brother's or me, did. That cousin tried to claim it was theirs, even though it wasn't. No one else cared but him. He was gaslighting me, as always. It's good that I stopped going over to our grandmother's house during puberty. Who knows what he could've done to me now. I haven't been there ever since, and the house has been demolished. I passed by and looked over at my dad several times. He was high. I was unfortunately relieved, because I didn't have to worry about being drove home soon, before I found the leftovers. He was not physically capable of driving. A woman or two had italian food, and they were apparently related to my dad's side. I mentioned that I can't eat pasta. 'I can't eat pasta. It has me constipated.' I mentioned prefering 'rice noodles; vegan.' I got annoyed expressions back from them. Things I recall seeing were busts of layne staley, kurt cobain, and probably chris cornell. A poster for a show, or ad, had layne spelled wrong on it. My grandmother was surprisingly being nice to me, letting me use her phone to take a picture of the wainscotting/walls. Edwardian era. We walked around the building, talking about the local supermarket. 'What it used to be, before it was a _' In real life, it was another local supermarket chain before the one it is now. I saw a scary godmother themed coffee machine, looking over at her to use the phone. I contemplating taking a selfie in front of it.
I then saw something, a edwardian bathroom. I wanted to get a picture and I loved just looking at it. 'Look, a edwardian bathroom. Isn't it cool. It's like something out of a dream.' She nodded, sympathetic. It was very cramped, almost just a wall. Up above was a iron window, victorian and small. There was probably a vent on the floor, iron, floral and victorian as well. A wooden background/board from the vintage barbie dreamhouse was nailed or stapled to the doorway. And there was a door that was covering all of it. Like coraline, so edwardian. The door was likely pastel pink. The tiling on the floor was probably pastel too. Or a deep blue. Or black. Inside the main room, I started to vomit up doll hair. Lilac colored. And white/nude. I reached in my mouth to pull it out. I had originally went straight for the garbage can, barely hacking anything out. The teen girls around were disgusted by me. A woman who was a therapist, followed after me. One of the girls behind me was mixed, half black. She was very agitated by my presence. My dad walked past me, very high. He looked sick. 'Did you say something to-___?' The therapist asked, accusing me of bullying the black girl. 'No, I was vomiting up hair. I was pulling it out of my throat..' I retort, receiving a disgusted and judgmental expression.
I found myself talking to another person, a girl had mentioned, 'robbie kay' from ouat. I lit up at her words. 'I used to be obsessed with that when it was released/came out..' She nodded, annoyance in her eyes. She did not care; you could see it in her eyes. 'I had a obsessive crush on him. Peter Pan. Then Felix.' I mentioned that Felix was my hardcore crush, which is true. 'He's in oblivion, waiting for me..' I took off running, spinning around. I was about to wake up and didn't even know it. I was so blissful and happy. In that moment.
Farther through the building, it got longer. It was a cinema. Maybe even a convention center; theatre looking. Traincars were inside, ready to go down the several hallways I didn't want to explore. Wouldn't have the energy to anyway. The therapist went down there, passing by. The main room was emptying, bags of garbage ready to leave. There were indoor trucks, loading with them. I was lucid, figuring it was 3AM in my head. Mom was gonna be pissed off that my Dad had us out, all night. We needed to get home before sunrise. I woke up, machines of loving grace playing through my head. The melody to the song, 'content' humming through the air.

Hey! I’m a 32 year old guy, based in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, UK. Wondering if Reddit can be the answer in helping me find someone for chats, dates and hopefully a relationship!
About me:

• A big fan of Movies/Series and love going to the cinema. I enjoy all the usual ‘geeky’ stuff (Star Wars, Lord of The Rings, Marvel, Harry Potter etc and the odd bit of anime e.g. Studio Ghibli movies and the occasional shonen series) as well as dumb comedies, romance and more serious sci-fi and drama movies. I haven’t seen all that many horrors, but if you’re a horror fan I’d happily watch them with you!
  
• I own all the consoles (Switch/Xbox/PS5) as well as a PC, but play far less than the cost of them warrants as I seem to default to Movies/Series/Youtube when I’m chilling (see above). Recently I've played a bit of Diablo IV. Co-op sessions with a loved one would be awesome though.
  
• I gym 3 times a week and I like to get outdoors. Walks at lunchtime, cycle rides at the weekend when there is nice weather etc.
  
• Music-wise I listen to pretty much anything from Pop to Dance to Hip Hop to Heavy Metal. In the car, one day you might catch me dancing along to Charli XCX (she is a bit of a guilty pleasure, her tunes always seem to be a bop?) on Radio 1, whilst on another I could be singing every word of System of a Down on a Spotify playlist of music from my teenage angst days.
  
• I enjoy travel - both city breaks as well as typical beach resort holidays. Previous destinations have included Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona and Egypt (twice). I was also lucky to visit South Africa and China as part of an old job.
  
• I am a parent. I see my son (9 years old) regularly every other weekend, he is awesome! I know this can sometimes put people off but I would say that I still have a lot of free time and a lot of love to give. And be reassured that I do not expect someone to take on mothering responsibilities, just being kind and a friend is enough! I am open to both having more children or not having more children in the future.
  
• I would say I pretty much have my shit together. I have a good career and am a homeowner. I can drive. I have good hygiene, try to dress well and am domesticated (I keep my home clean and tidy on my own no problems). Can cook a little and follow a recipe well enough. Just need someone to share life with now!
  
• Looks wise I’m 5’11”, slim/athletic build, mixed race, dark hair, dark eyes. See me here. And more on my profile here
  

In the future I hope to:

• Go further with my outdoor pursuits. I would love give a try to new activities e.g. hiking, scaling a mountain (nothing big, Snowdon perhaps?), bouldering, stand up paddle, learning to ski
  
• See more of the UK. I recently went to Scotland for the first time in my 32 years! I did some sightseeing around Edinburgh and walked up Arthur’s Seat. But I still have never been to Wales, Cornwall, the Peak District, the Lake District, the Highlands etc!
  
• Tick off a few dream destinations on the bucket list. Some of my top priorities would include Iceland, Walt Disney World/Universal Studios in Florida, Japan and a US Roadtrip.
  
• Find someone!
  

What I’m looking for:

• Someone kind, caring, affectionate. Ideally UK-based.
  
• Looking for a relationship with the potential for long term. Someone up for things like regular date nights, holidays/weekend breaks, cuddles in front of movies or series, cooking together. Celebrating the good times and successes together and supporting each other through the tough moments. And in the longer term living together, making a nice family life (pets, children - if you want that).
  
• Looks wise I’m very open to all races and shapes/sizes, my dating history has been quite a range! If you are quite feminine and like a lot of typically ‘girly’ things (think loving pink/pastel colours, cute animals/characters, baking, hair and beauty) then I do find that quite attractive, but wouldn’t say that is exclusively my ‘type’.
  
• A passion for outdoors/nature would be cool and if you already have an outdoor hobby such as climbing, stand up paddle, skiing etc and would be willing to introduce me to it, even better! Not essential though!
  

If you think we could be a good match then please do send a message. A bit of info about yourself or something we have in common would be a great starting point. Age range approx 25-35 so hopefully we understand the same cultural references and jokes although would open to considering out of this if you like what you read or think we have lots in common!
Hoping to hear from you soon!

Arugula ref pic
--- [So sorry, to the like dozen people who read this, I was gone so long! I wanted to write out most of the backstory before starting to post it but College work and starting to foster Danes completely overwhelmed me to the point I didn't have much time to write it out. I'm going to hesitantly try to start writing this. Hopefully I'll be able to post roughly every other week. Anyways, sorry again] ‐‐‐
As everyone settled back down Arugula thought over how to start. You couldn't help but keep glancing over at the ghostly dragonet floating on their back and looking bored. They suddenly glanced over, making eyecontact with you, causing you to jump and snap your gaze away from them. You heard a soft, slightly echoey, chuckle as you refused to glance anywhere near them after that.
"Al'ight. S'pose ah shuld g've eh lil' 'text 'bout meh 'atchlin'-'ood ferst." (Alright. I suppose I should give a little context about my hatchling-hood first)
<------
A tiny hatchling, not more than a week out of the egg, waddled around chirping. Eyes squinted, nearly shut completely, and tiny layer of fur fluffed up. It stumbled around clumsily through the brush, toppling over onto the ground many times. Under the layer of fluff it was much too thin, even for a summer-hatched icewing. Its fur was dirty and heavily matted from the days of stumbling through the woods. Its voice was quiet and hoarse from the near-constant use over many days of calling with no answer.
The hatchling stumbled over a tree root its tiny squinted eyes didn't spot and fell to the ground. Laying spread eagle on the ground the hatchling silently layed there, resting it's exhausted body. It panted slightly from both exhaustion and the heat through its fur it wasn't used to. It closed its eyes to shield them from the bright lights they weren't quite ready for as it rested. Then one of it's tiny ears twitched. Opening its tiny eyes back into a squint, it lifted it's head in the direction of the noise and chirped out a few calls. It then fell silent to listen. The entire forest itself seemed to hold it's breath.
Then the call was answered.
Two long grumbling howls of a responding call echoed out of the trees. The tiny icewing perked up and shakily crawled back onto it's aching paws. It then waddled towards the call, chirping out multiple times as it did. It's excitement only grew as it's call was answered again, without pause this time. The answering calls grew shorter, more like barks, and lasted for longer before stopping as the hatchling got closer. With the longer answering calls the hatchling was able to rest their voice more and listen out longer.
The hatchling eventually stumbled out of a bush and flopped on the ground again. It lifted it's head and shook it but paused when the bright light coming into it's squinted eyes dimmed. It looked up with a small chirp and was met by a large figure towering over it, blocking the bright-light-ball in the sky.
The hatchling must have misgauged how far it was from the answering dragon since when it chirped the large figure towering over it made a quiet answering rumble. It lowered it's head and sniffed the hatchling, trying to scent it's parents. It wasnt able to. Not being able to leave the hatchling alone it made up it's mind and nuzzled the white hatchling after a few seconds of suprised staring. The hatchling happily let the dragon it rub it's scent onto it's fur, letting out many happy chirps at the attention.
Then the dragon moved it's head to pick up the hatchling. The fluffy hatchling was suprised when it was gently lifted by it's wings instead of the fluffy temporary mane behind the base of it's head. Either way it curled into a tight ball and locked it's joints in place to keep from tossing it's weight around. The dragon waited for the hatchling to get situated before it spread it's red and orange wings, taking to the air as gently as it could.

Years later a glimmer of white was spotted between the trees deep into the sky queendom within the hilly forests before the mountains started. A grey-ish pastel and steel blue scaled dragon walked through the plants. Their bark colored eyes flickered from one bush of berries to the next, light glinting on the amber ring around their pupil. They eventually found what they were looking for and approached a bush, carefully picking through the branches to take the ripe and not-quite-there berries from it. They had to be careful because of their serrated claws but had done this so many times they weren't worried.
Their long ear flicked and they glanced upwards, tilting their head slightly to block the light with their straw hat and the glare with the long dull spikes over their eyes. They watched the sky between the branches for a few long seconds. Then two flashes of red in rapid succession flashed past, causing the trees to rustle grumpily at the disturbance. It was only a second or two later until two roars filled the sky, one of triumph and the other of annoyance. The spikey dragon smiled to themself and chuckled while they shook their head. They finished picking the berries and placed their basket back into it's carrier strapped to their side next to other bags and baskets.
Standing again, they turn and make their way back the way they came, careful of the spikes lining their tail. It was a short walk until they were back in a clearing big enough for them to be able to take off without risk of injury, for them and the plants. They took to the air and hovered over the trees, watching back the way they came as two small red forms chased each other through the air. Flipping, twirling, diving, swooping, it was like a dance as they played. The brightly colored dragon reached to their hat and grabbed the cloth tied around the middle of it. Unwinding it, they used the two straps of fabric it dangled in to tie under their jaw and keep their hat in place.
Then they chirped out a short bark of a roar that was so low it was felt more than heard. It only took two wingbeats for the playing dragons to stop and bank their flight towards them. They quickly made their way over and before they were even halfway the spikey dragon turned and flapped towards home. It wasnt long until two tiny red blurs shot past them, playfully snapping, bumping, and batting at each other. The spikey dragon chuckled again and watched the two dragons built for the sky resume their dance through the air.
When the three's home was in sight two larger red dragons rose from the treetops and met the two smaller ones in the air, exchanging greetings and pleasantries as the white dragon slowly caught up in a casual pace. Once they were close enough, they smiled and greeted the two slightly larger, and much older, dragons.
"Ma. Pa." The two smiled back and returned the greeting. Their mother sliding closer in the air to bump snouts in hello, they returned the motion happily. They asked the two a question as they backflapped, letting the duo of red blurs speed between them and their parents.
"Goin' fer anoth'a fly?" Their father answered with his own question.
"'T's such a beau'iful day t'day, ain't 't?" Their mother took her turn with another bright smile.
"Weh'll be back 'n time fer dinner. Weh may ev'n bring back ah mountain goat er two. I know 'ow much ya like those." Used to their family's countless trips through the air, they nodded.
"'Ll make sure ta 'ave somethin' ready fer y'all. Dinner 'round dusk like usual?" Their mother swooped under them towards their little siblings as their father answered.
"'Course. Oh! 'Fore I ferget: I think I saw somethin' messin' with ya garden earlier. I couldn' quite get a good look at 't but 't was quite small." The spikey dragon hummed.
"'Cavenger?" They questioned. Their father shook his head.
"Too short, but 'round the size 'f a paw if I were ta take a guess. Only saw 't at a glance." The white dragon nodded thoughtfully. Their father smiled at them and patted their shoulder before passing them in the air.
"Take good care 'f the 'ouse fer 's, 'Rugula." The icewing, smiled as he watched his family gather together again before flying off, each beginning to swoop, swerve, dive, bank, twirl, and twist around each other in a complicated dance unable to be repeated. Arugula watched their family fly off for a while until they were just tiny specks on the horizon. Only then did they turn and fly the rest of the way to their home.
Arugula landed outside in a particularly clear patch of grass. They then wandered into the fence keeping forest animals from the flowers and garden surrounding the thunder of five's home. They made sure to clasp the latch behind them before they walked farther and into their den. They put all the bags and baskets of gathered materials down, straightening up the various rooms after their little siblings as they went. Once finished cleaning and putting things away, they wandered back outside to their garden. They let a glance sweep over the garden to check for any damage that sticks out.
Thankfully not seeing anything major, they started down one of the paths through their garden. As they went they checked on the plants to see what needed to be watered and what was getting close to fruiting. They spotted a few plants with small sections of their leaves missing or with a few branches of berries gone. They were annoyed but didn't care overly much, their home was in the middle of a forest after all. They hummed to themself as they picked a few things they needed for dinner later and did general upkeep of their garden. After a while they did spot a small part of the fence having a hole in it.
They studied the edges of the hole, inside and outside, trying to see if an animal chewed or clawed it's way through. They didn't find anything though, it just looked like the planks in that section gets more soaked than the rest of the fence and rotted away over time. They'll have to fix that soon. For now they made a temporary patch for the hole and wiggled it a bit once it was secured to make sure it wouldn't come undone until they replaced those few boards. Happy with the patch, they continued checking over their garden, taking note of what plants were damaged from whatever wiggled through the hole.
Once they looped back around to the house they glanced to the sky, gauging how long it would be until their family came back. Deciding they should start up making dinner, they ducked inside. They placed the things they gathered from their garden with the baskets from earlier then turned and went back to the front door to hang up their hat and foraging harness for the night. They hummed to themself as they grabbed their inside gloves to keep their serrated claws from cutting something accidentally.
They clicked out a random tune with their tail spikes as they thought over what they should make for dinner. Something that goes well with mountain goat. They thought over many different options as they put the extra foraging away into their proper storage places. As they put them away they rearranged the containers to put the older stuff in the front, it needing to be used sooner before it goes bad. As they shuffled around the baskets, sacks, jars, and bottles they paused their mindless clinking as they saw a certain nearly empty jar.
They stared at it as they flipped over a few dinner recipes in their mind. They tapped its cap in thought as they decided if they were going to make the meal using this jar. They haven't had it in a while, but they don't see this very often any more. They won't be able to replace it for a while. They pulled the jar out and set it on the counter as they looked through the rest of the cabinets for what else they have.
Seeing what they had and making a mental note of what needs to be refilled soon, they decided on a recipe and put the extra things away. They resumed their mindless clinking of a tune as they worked, this time adding in their neck spikes to it to make it louder and fill the empty silence better. They let themself zone out after they built a fire and kept an eye on it, starting to prepare the ingredients and sides for the meal. Just before they got into a good groove their focus was snapped away suddenly by the door busting open soon followed by a solid 'thump' of something large hitting the ground.
They jumped and instinctively sniffed the air when the familiar scents from their family didn't flood their nose. As soon as they got a good whiff of air they froze and tenced, spikes and scales both puffing up to make them look bigger. That wasn't their family. Their family's scents do vary day to day but it mostly stays anywhere between fire to charcoal. This scent, was not even remotely close. It didn't even smell like they were a skywing.
This one (no two, there were two scents) smelled like dirt just before rain with a hint of blood and death. It smelled like returning from a hunt just before a storm started. Once they focused on the scent they were able to pick out a second one hiding under the first. They couldn't figure out if it was because the two scents melded together or if one dragon was just that much larger than the other. Maybe both?
The second scent was a tad harder to get a read on with the bigger scent clogging up their nose so much but eventually it clicked. This one smelled like a forest and flowers. Like going for a hike and stumbling across a sunny clearing in the middle of spring. If Arugula wasn't absolutely terrified about why two unfamiliar dragons barged into their thunder's den, it would have been quite relaxing to smell. Looking towards the doorway leading towards the main part of the den, Arugula waited in tence silence.
They couldn't make up their mind on if they should investigate or just leap out the window and fly away from the strangers. Before they could decide they heard a barely there groan and that piqued their curiosity. Cursing themself, knowing it would probably get them killed but unable to leave the question of who it was unanswered, they silently put down what they were holding and crept as carefully as they could towards the doorway to the entrance room. Steeling themself once there, they took a breath before peeking around the corner. They wish they hadn't.
There, collapsed in the middle of the entranceway and just barely far enough from the door for it to shut, was the largest mudwing they had ever seen. Nevermind the fact it was covered in scars, fresh wounds of varying severity, and its scales having a permanently grey-ish tint to them that made their own scales crawl and itch with discomfort. None of that was what drew their eye, though. No, that privilege went to the giant, blistering, angry-looking burn freshly seared along the dragon's spine starting just behind it's shoulders like it tried to duck under the flames but was grazed anyways. It was sluggishly bleeding and slightly oozing a clear substance that was just this side of being mistaken for water. They were so taken aback by the sight that they hadn't even realized they had shifted fully into the doorway and now in clear view if the dragon were to look their way. Thankfully, it didn't seem to notice them. Unfortunately, it's companion did.
The second dragon was much smaller than the mudwing. Just barely larger than a bigger than usual rainwing. It looked like someone took a seawing and rainwing, mixed them together, and swapped some of the features with leaves. It was the strangest dragon they've seen yet. They hadn't noticed the second dragon until it was rushing over and practically gluing itself against them.
"Help him! Please! Please help!" It- she?- they pleaded with them. Tearing their gaze from the injured mudwing, that looked to have (hopefully temporarily) blacked out, they took a second to study the second dragon. It wore a light blue and magenta jacket that ended at the bottom of it's ribs, a necklace with a heart shaped pendant, a hornring with a chain connecting it to an earring, and two tailbangles of different sizes connected with a chain. It's clothes and the way it held itself was very feminine but they shouldn't assume. Should they ask pronouns? No- wait, they asked them something. They shook their head slightly to clear it.
"Pard'n?" They asked the dragon clinging to them. The dragon shifted and glanced at the mudwing with worry before repeating itself.
"Can you help him? I-" It worked it's jaw a bit before it's words came back, though it's voice was choked with unshed tears as it stared at the injured mudwing. "I don't know what to do..." it came out as a quiet whined plea. To be perfectly honest Arugula had no idea what to do either. At most they have basic knowledge of first-aid. They do have a bit more than average knowledge of burns just because of their siblings not having the best grasp on their fire yet but they've never worked on anything this bad before. Not to mention that not only does the dragon's aura scream danger, but it's scent does too. Who would have blood and death in their scent if they weren't constantly surrounded by both? But...they looked over the giant mudwing crumpled pitifully and all the deep wounds scattered around it that would probably need stitches (that they only had theoretical knowledge how to do) then back to the dragon clung to them. It was holding tightly to their arm and pressed as close as their cold scales would allow, ignoring the chill of them, as it stared at the mudwing. It's tail slightly wrapped around one of their back legs too, though it didn't seem to notice.
They studied the smaller dragon next to them. It looked about three seconds away from either all out panic or bursting into tears. They can't quite decide which is more likely but they didn't like either option. Both made their heart ache with sympathy. Looking back over the mudwing bleeding on their floor they scanned it's wounds then silently sighed and cursed their own bleeding heart as it beat back their self-preservation with a branch. Gathering up as much courage and confidence as they could, they rose their wings to fold across their back instead of at thier sides, both to keep them out of the way and to support their weight as they work, and they took a big breath. Letting it out they let their mind start flashing through everything they'll need and what they should start on. They turned to the dragon clinging to them then paused for a second.
"Name 'n pronouns?" It paused, taken off guard at the questions, and looked at them for a few seconds in confusion but answered.
"Uh. Foxglove, She/her?" It ended more like a question than a statement at her confusion but they ignored it.
"'Kay, miss 'glove. Ya squeamish?" She blinked, thought about it for a second, then slowly shook her head.
"No....," She slowly answered, "Unless it's like guts and an excess of gore. I'm good with blood and really bad wounds." Arugula nodded and looked back at the mudwing, a treatment plan forming in their head.
"Good. Ah'll need ya 'elp then. Down that 'all, two doors down 'n th' lef' there's ah room wit' ah shaggy fur on the groun'. 'N there ya'll see a box o' gloves. Grab th' yell'a ones. Make sure they the yell'a ones, not oran'. Then grab th' white bags they next ta." She looked down the hall they pointed to as they explained and carefully approached the downed mudwing. At the end of their directions she sped off without a second of hesitation. With her gone they turned their full attention to the giant mudwing. Now that they're closer they realize how big the dragon really is. One of it's paws was probably almost as big as their entire head. It looked to have the strength to easily crush their skull with one paw too.

Hi folks!
I am a UK based adult slimer and have decided to have a little fun reviewing slimes! I’m going to start off reviewing UK slimes as they are somewhat underrepresented.
In order to quieten my intrusive slime thoughts, I’ve gone on a major buying spree of the slimes available on Etsy UK so will start off by reviewing those. However I’m excited to expand this to UK shops such as Emma Bee etc. as their drops happen!
My Bonnie and Clyde level slime spree has also extended to the USA and I’m waiting on a king’s share of slimes from multiple companies so look forward to developing an informed view of what is available worldwide and how it differs!
Let’s-a-go with the reviews! I’m starting off with “Slime Screwball” from Etsy UK, I can only really fit one store in this review as it’s so long and image heavy!
I was EXTREMELY impressed with my delivery from this seller when I first opened the box it was the best first impression from a slime company yet. Well packaged, utterly stunning presentation with lovely organza bags combining the slime and their clay/add ins. I particularly love this as I didn’t have to figure out which item belonged to which or miss an add in because of excitement getting the better of me.
There were a couple of free slime samples and some candies/toys included as well as generous amounts of borax in powder form. For me, the ASMR begins upon the opening the box and this shop absolutely nailed that experience!
The labels are waterproof which is a big deal for me. Not just because I don’t want the slime to ruin them but because I wipe down literally everything that comes into contact with my play area, my hands or the slime with lab grade disinfectant wipes to prevent any contamination prior to getting started. This includes the outside of the pots (yes I totally am a germaphobe!)
Here’s what I took out the box:
Another shot.
Another Shot. It was so pretty!
Another Shot.
One more, it was so pretty!

• SALTED CARAMEL (DIY cloud dough)

This slime comes with a little pot of fudge chunks, caramel sauce and heart shaped chocolate sprinkles and is simply decadently gorgeous when assembled! The scent is utterly perfect, bang on warm, salted caramel. My brain kept incessantly chanting “food? Have a taste!” at me. I told my brain to shut up and my husband very kindly picked up a real sticky toffee pudding for me to prevent an awkward emergency room visit where I had to explain my belly full of caramel scented glue LOL!
This slime was a perfectly activated, beautifully smooth, stretchy texture. Lots of ultra satisfying bubble pops and snaps. It was a good slime albeit a little thinner, smoother and less holdable/fluffy textured than your typical cloud dough. Ultimately this slime’s texture is an ideal match for its “flavour.” It didn’t inflate massively but a little portion ended up in a deli tub so I could close the container with ease.
Here is it when first opened.
Here it is assembled.
Here it is fluffed up.

• STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM (cloud dough)

Another beautifully presented slime with little chopped strawberry pieces and heart sprinkles already in the tub. The smell was definitely strawberries and cream and very pleasant but not quite as punchy as the salted caramel. It was very similar to the above in texture and qualities.
Here it is when first opened.
Here it is after a little poking in the pot.
Here it is fluffed up.

• FUNFETTI (cloud dough)

This slime was the only one in a PET pot so there were some sticking issues that popped my little dopamine bubble for just a sec. The other pots were PP which was appreciated! I have a real thing for ice cream style sprinkles in slimes, the fact you can’t feel them (I’m not much of a bingsu fan) but can spot them as an ever changing cascade of cute colours as you play is so satisfying to me!
The scent of this slime was a little lacklustre, I couldn’t really detect anything identifiable. The description stated tutti fruity and I guess I got a slight hint of that when I really huffed it but it wasn’t particularly notable. Another well made slime, perfectly activated (though it needed a little spritz to take back the stickiness as it inflated.) It inflated more than the previous slimes and had a slightly smoother, dryer feel so perhaps there is a bit more snow or clay in the recipe.
Here it is first opened.
Here it is fluffed up.
A pic of the spread.

• SUGAR COOKIES (cloud dough with glitter and sprinkles)

This slime more than made up for the lacklustre scent of the previous and, be still my heart, more SPRINKLES! YES! The cloud dough texture was again similar to the strawberries and cream and the salted caramel but a little looser and less inflatable. I was actually able to put it back in its original pot without any split off. A nice slime with a superb and faithful sugar cookie scent but not quite a true cloud dough.
Here it is first opened and assembled.
Here it is fluffed up.

• VANILLA SCOOP BUTTERCREAM (DIY butter)

This came with a scoop of clay ice cream, caramel sauce and sprinkles (BRING IT ON with the sprinkles!) The scent was a mild vanilla that got stronger as I played with it, more on the floral end of vanilla than ice cream style vanilla. Very pretty when assembled! Lovely brightly coloured sprinkles. Nice spongy squish on the clay. Fairly sticky once combined, needed quite a lot of activator. More of a slay than a butter in terms of spreadability, it remained pretty loose and didn’t hold much at all. Perfect vanilla colour. A little bit of inflation and obvious size increase considering the clay add in, which called for a second container. Not the most in the way of pops and it provided quiet finger pokes. A decent slime but not one I’d rush to buy again.
Here it is first opened.
Here it is assembled. It looks gorgeous!
Fluffed up.

• COOKIES AND CREAM (butter)

The cookie pieces were already in the slime and it came with an Oreo charm separately. Absolutley Awesome cookie scent. Again a bit sticky and needing activator but much less than the vanilla scoop. Soft finger pokes. Nice stretchy texture. Very similar in texture to the vanilla scoop with just a little more hold.
First opened.
Fluffed up.

• STRESS RELIEF (butter)

Beautiful lavender scent that gets stronger as you play, never overwhelming but very relaxing, I got sleepy LOL! Stunning lavender purple colour. A bit foamy on top but that went away instantly when I started playing, no stickiness like the last few butters. My dopamine receptors started whirring as soon as I started kneading and stretching this one. Perfect texture, good stretch and well activated, albeit again less spreadability than you’d expect in a typical butter. Good finger pokes and pops.
I wasn’t sold on the idea of lavender at first but now I so am! I was so relaxed LOL! I would want to try other company’s lavenders now but would certainly consider buying this slime again unless other lavender slimes wow’d me more. A little inflation but not a major amount. I was just about able to get it back in this pot with a tiny pinch in a secondary pot.
First opened.
Fluffed up.

• NEOPOLITAN (DIY butter)

This slime comes with an awesome neopolitan clay ice cream scoop and chocolate sprinkles. I was getting a Neapolitan scent (strawberry, chocolate and vanilla) it’s pretty nice but the vanilla fragrance this company uses does have that slight floral tinge to it. I’m fussy about my vanilla fragrances and prefer sweet and creamy to floral. None the less I was also picking up the other Neopolitan flavours which made for an interesting profile.
Nice, spongy squish on the clay. Needed a little activator but mixed together well without too much stickiness. I personally love the dusty rose colour it became when combined (so THATS how you make dusty rose! Thank you slime for bolstering my colour theory knowledge!) Good stretch, decent finger pokes and pops. Fair bit of inflation on this one being a clay combo, more than the vanilla scoop. Bigger second container needed for the extra.
Here it is first opened.
Here it is assembled. So cute!
Here it is fluffed up.

• UNICORN WAFFLE FAIRY BREAD (DIY butter)

This slime comes with a pink clay waffle, sauce and colourful sprinkles. Sadly there was a small hair in the sauce as you can see in the pic below. Mild waffle scent that wasn’t that exciting but certainly not bad and an absolutely beautiful baby blue colour to the slime that combined to a super cute ultra light lilac/soft powder blue colour. The clay was a tiny bit rubbery but combined well. Quiet finger pokes and decent pops.
Here it is first opened.
Here it is assembled.
Here it is fluffed up.
CUSTOM MADE SLIME- pastel coconut cloud dough with green glitter.
This was a custom slime for me and smelled GREAT! Coconuts on a tropical beach spring to mind. I had requested a blue cloud slime with green iridescent glitter (my favourite) and the seller went above and behind dolling it up for me with mostly gorgeous pearly green glitter but also a pinch of pink and purple glitter. I love it! when I saw this seller did custom slimes I asked for a cloud slime but she told me that, due to the cost of fake snow, she could only offer a cloud dough. This texture was much more faithful to a cloud dough with much more hold. Little finger pokes and pops and no activator needed at all. Zero stickiness. I also got the same custom slime in a vanilla scent and it was just the same but the coconut scent reigned supreme. I’d love another custom slime from this seller.
Here it is first opened.
After a little swirling in the pot.
Fluffed up. You can see it has a lot more hold and is a true cloud dough.
All in all I am very impressed with Slime Screwball. If you wish to purchase slime as a gift for someone look no further, the presentation was absolutely 5 star, a truly impressive and lovely effort. The slimes were all very decent and fun to play with with fabulous scents and a stunning aesthetic. If I only had UK companies to choose from, this shop would get repeat business from me for sure!
The downside for me was the hair in the slime but accidents do happen. I also have no idea whether this shop uses gloves. If I were pressed to say something negative I would say that they have perhaps opted to put a little more budget into packaging, pots and nice scents than ingredients resulting in a little less snow and clay in slimes than I would prefer (also I was disappointed by the lack of a true cloud slime in the store) but this certainly doesn’t mean their slimes aren’t very well made, beautiful, quality slimes none the less. If you are in the UK looking for great slime that will make you super happy as soon as you open the box, this store this store is definitely worth a try!

This is a response to a CW Describe a dish without naming it or any of its ingredients.

As the first notes of Barber’s adagio echoed in Rebecca’s small kitchen, she put on her apron and grabbed her chef knife. Humming along to the melody of one of her favorite classical music pieces, she finely chopped four cloves of garlic.
The beam of sunlight coming from the balcony bathed the kitchen in a soft, golden light. Along with the pastel green and light wood tones, it looked like one of those dreamy kitchens found in home decor magazines.
Since she received a message from Marc, her boyfriend, letting her know that he would be home around 7 p.m. earlier that day, she had been in an excellent mood.
The faint sound of olive oil sizzling when she added the garlic to the pan blended perfectly with the slow melody filling the air.
As soon as she received that message, she knew what she would make for dinner. The menu was composed while she was preparing to leave for the local farmer’s market.
She was planning to serve pumpkin soup, Marc’s favorite, with grilled cheese and garlic bread. As a main course, she made a cordon bleu accompanied by Dijon mustard velouté and sauteed mushrooms. As for the salade niçoise, she only needed to add the dressing before serving the meal. And now she was making the last dish.
The moment she popped open the homemade tomato sauce glass container, the smell of tomatoes mixed with chili pepper and bay leaves tickled her senses. It reminded her of Nina, her late grandmother, and the summers she spent at her grandparents’ farm in the south. Although Nina was no longer here, she could still feel her comforting presence whenever she made one of her recipes.
Once the garlic gained a golden-brown color, she poured the sauce and gently stirred. She then added basil leaves before sprinkling seasoning, some paprika, ground ginger, and the mix of herbs she bought from Lyon during her last trip a couple of months ago.
By the time she covered the pan, Elgar’s Nimrod was playing. While peeling the two eggplants she had grilled earlier in the afternoon, she recalled all the times Marc and she clumsily slow danced to that music in the middle of their living room.
She then diced the vegetables while waiting for the sauce to simmer after she added some liquid cream. Remembering Marc’s jokes about how she only measured the ingredients when she was baking and went ‘chaos mode’ when cooking, she let out a peal of joyful laughter.
The timer went off when she was about to add the diced eggplants. The smell of fresh bread filled the kitchen the instant she opened the oven. A satisfied grin brightened her face as she set the baking dish on the countertop. After that, she added the diced eggplants and put back the pan’s lid.
Waiting for the bread to cool down, she chopped some parsley before she started setting the table.
Smoothing the fabric of the ivory and cherry red table runner she got from her grandmother, she glanced at the clock. Marc should be home in less than two hours. After mentally checking the tasks on her to-do list, she concluded that she had enough time to get ready before he arrived. Quickly, she set the dishes and the cutlery, then sliced the sourdough bread and grilled it after spreading a generous amount of garlic butter and topping it with mozzarella.
Once the eggplants absorbed the tomato sauce and the spices, she poured it into a clay dish before topping it with parsley and some parmesan.
About an hour later, dressed in a strapless burgundy dress, Rebecca inspected the table that she set for her lover, feeling satisfied.

Thank you for reading my story, crits and feedback are always appreciated.

Here’s the deal. I’m allergic to gluten and the Ukrop’s rainbow cookie craving is at an all time high for me. Probably something about easter and pastel colors. I’m not afraid of baking my own stuff with GF ingredients, so if anyone has the recipe, I would be so eternally grateful.

Hello all, I am still very new to this game, and I have a few questions- - what are the mining settlements for? I have two but I don’t seem to be using the rocks collected for anything at all! - what are the pastel colourful rocks in the ground for? I can’t delete them like normal rocks? - Just unlocked the shaman, what do they do and any advice? All the cards related to the shaman look complicated with recipes and gathering or something!
If anyone has any advice I’d be grateful :)

Any good film recipes for the colors in miami? Bright, vibrant, pastel. Also would love a night recipe! TIA

Hey! I’m a 32 year old guy, based in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, UK. Wondering if Reddit can be the answer in helping me find someone for chats, dates and hopefully a relationship!
About me:

• A big fan of Movies/Series and love going to the cinema. I enjoy all the usual ‘geeky’ stuff (Star Wars, Lord of The Rings, Marvel, Harry Potter etc and the odd bit of anime e.g. Studio Ghibli movies and the occasional shonen series) as well as dumb comedies, romance and more serious sci-fi and drama movies. I haven’t seen all that many horrors, but if you’re a horror fan I’d happily watch them with you!
  
• I own all the consoles (Switch/Xbox/PS5) as well as a PC, but play far less than the cost of them warrants as I seem to default to Movies/Series/Youtube when I’m chilling (see above). Recently I've played a bit of Diablo IV. Co-op sessions with a loved one would be awesome though.
  
• I gym 3 times a week and I like to get outdoors. Walks at lunchtime, cycle rides at the weekend when there is nice weather etc.
  
• Music-wise I listen to pretty much anything from Pop to Dance to Hip Hop to Heavy Metal. In the car, one day you might catch me dancing along to Charli XCX (she is a bit of a guilty pleasure, her tunes always seem to be a bop?) on Radio 1, whilst on another I could be singing every word of System of a Down on a Spotify playlist of music from my teenage angst days.
  
• I enjoy travel - both city breaks as well as typical beach resort holidays. Previous destinations have included Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona and Egypt (twice). I was also lucky to visit South Africa and China as part of an old job.
  
• I am a parent. I see my son (9 years old) regularly every other weekend, he is awesome! I know this can sometimes put people off but I would say that I still have a lot of free time and a lot of love to give. And be reassured that I do not expect someone to take on mothering responsibilities, just being kind and a friend is enough! I am open to both having more children or not having more children in the future.
  
• I would say I pretty much have my shit together. I have a good career and am a homeowner. I can drive. I have good hygiene, try to dress well and am domesticated (I keep my home clean and tidy on my own no problems). Can cook a little and follow a recipe well enough. Just need someone to share life with now!
  
• Looks wise I’m 5’11”, slim/athletic build, mixed race, dark hair, dark eyes. See me here. And more on my profile here
  

In the future I hope to:

• Go further with my outdoor pursuits. I would love give a try to new activities e.g. hiking, scaling a mountain (nothing big, Snowdon perhaps?), bouldering, stand up paddle, learning to ski
  
• See more of the UK. I recently went to Scotland for the first time in my 32 years! I did some sightseeing around Edinburgh and walked up Arthur’s Seat. But I still have never been to Wales, Cornwall, the Peak District, the Lake District, the Highlands etc!
  
• Tick off a few dream destinations on the bucket list. Some of my top priorities would include Iceland, Walt Disney World/Universal Studios in Florida, Japan and a US Roadtrip.
  
• Find someone!
  

What I’m looking for:

• Someone kind, caring, affectionate. Ideally UK-based.
  
• Looking for a relationship with the potential for long term. Someone up for things like regular date nights, holidays/weekend breaks, cuddles in front of movies or series, cooking together. Celebrating the good times and successes together and supporting each other through the tough moments. And in the longer term living together, making a nice family life (pets, children - if you want that).
  
• Looks wise I’m very open to all races and shapes/sizes, my dating history has been quite a range! If you are quite feminine and like a lot of typically ‘girly’ things (think loving pink/pastel colours, cute animals/characters, baking, hair and beauty) then I do find that quite attractive, but wouldn’t say that is exclusively my ‘type’.
  
• A passion for outdoors/nature would be cool and if you already have an outdoor hobby such as climbing, stand up paddle, skiing etc and would be willing to introduce me to it, even better! Not essential though!
  

If you think we could be a good match then please do send a message. A bit of info about yourself or something we have in common would be a great starting point. Age range approx 25-35 so hopefully we understand the same cultural references and jokes although would open to considering out of this if you like what you read or think we have lots in common!
Hoping to hear from you soon!
