Pt 2 here.

Check out my MASTERLIST for more!

Enji wasn’t surprised at your funeral.

He wasn't surprised when Rei had begged him to have you frozen, keep your body encased in a glass box at home.

He wasn't surprised when the kids held her, letting him make proper funeral arrangements.

He wasn't surprised when Rei had a breakdown, punching his chest and thrashing around in Shotou's and Dabi's arms.

Enji wasnt surprised when the divorce papers came. He knew the kids were making her do this, but he didn't care. He signed them without hesitation.

He wasn't surprised when he heard the kids had sent Rei to an asylum. She kept escaping the house to run to the graveyard; she wanted to dig your body up. He understood why the kids sent her back.

He wasn't surprised when he heard Rei had killed herself in that place, 6 months after you had died.

He wasn't surprised when his kids didn't inform him of her death or funeral. If he was being honest, he wasn't even sure if he would've gone to pay his respects.

Enji poured himself another glass of vodka, taking the bottle with him as he sat on his recliner, almost tripping on a few empty bottles.

He wasn't an alcoholic, he was just trying to numb his pain. Its the only thing that helps him fall asleep.

Enji pulled out a cigarette and pushed it between his lips. He snapped his fingers to light it, closing his eyes as he inhaled the carcinogen.

"Again, dad?"

Enji didn't have to open his eyes to know its you.

"You know these things are not good for you."

Enji smiled. You were always so caring.

"Ah, so you do smile? I didn't think you were capable of doing that."

Enji opened his eyes. You were standing in front of him, a grin on your face.

"I smiled a lot more when you were around." Enji said.

You chuckled. "Me too." You sat next to him, before putting your head in his lap. "But you weren't around often."

Enji felt tears prick his eyes. "I'm sorry."

"I know."

Enji woke up the next morning with a massive headache. He went to his kitchen to get himself some coffee. He checked the calendar as he sipped the hot drink.

Friday.

He finished his coffee quickly, before wearing a large coat. He grabbed his car keys and drove away from his house.

When he reached the graveyard, he made sure to wear his sunglasses and a baseball cap, before grabbing the bouquet of white lillies.

Your grave was a little away from the rest, he wanted you to have space, and his family to have privacy when they visited.

He stood in front of your grave. It was clean and the bed of grass of fresh as ever. He had paid the caretaker good money to regularly clean up your resting place.

Enji stared at your tombstone for some time.

Y/n Todoroki.

Heaven's brightest angel

A loving daughter

Now resting safe and at peace

Tears fell free from Enji's eyes at that. "Safe and at peace". Safe and at peace. Two things he failed to give you.

The image of your bloody face flashed in his mind for a moment. Blood coated your teeth and mouth, your gut was also bleeding heavily. Your face was contorted in pain, confusion and betra-

Enji needs to stop thinking.

He sat down beside your grave and pulled out the flask from his coat pocket. He knows he has to drive back. He knows he shouldn't drink, not in front of you at least, but he can't help it. "I'm sorry." Enji whispers before he started drinking. It didn't take long for him to finish the entire flask. It was getting dark and he knew he had to leave before the caretaker came.

Enji pressed a kiss to your tombstone before he turned on his heel to leave.

"Endeavour?"

Enji was stunned to hear his hero name; nobody had called him that in a long time. God, he wished it wasn't the paparazzi. They had no respect for anyone, not even for the grieving or the dead.

But he looked up to see an old face.

"Keigo?"

Hawks smiled. "How are you?"

"Fine. What are you doing here?"

He scratched the back of his head nervously. "I've been meaning to talk to you." Hawks sighed. "I tried contacting you several times but you're impossible to track."

Enji knew that. He disappeared from the public eye after your death. He left his agency to Hawks, and got himself a home hidden in the woods. People assumed that he was just distraught over his wife's death or something. They didn't know about you. Nobody did. He paid off the hospital staff to keep their mouth shut because he didn't want his kids to suffer anymore because of his mistakes.

"What do you want?" Enji asked, gruffly.

"I just wanted to talk to you. Check up on you, y'know?"

"I'm doing great." Enji replied, stepping around him, about to walk away, but Hawks put a hand on his shoulder.

"Enji, its not your fault-"

"Shut up." Enji walked past him and made his way towards his car.

"Enji, listen to me-"

"I said. Shut. Up." He growled out. He didn't need anyone's pity. He reached his car with Hawks running up to him.

Enji tried to open his door but he suddenly felt lightheaded as he fell down.

"Enji! Are you okay?" Hawks kneeled beside him.

"I'm f-fine. Leave me alone." Enji was slurring.

Hawks grimaced when he smelled his breath. "God, you reek of alcohol. You weren't planning on driving in this state?"

Enji pushed him away. "I said I'm fine." Enji stood up before stumbling towards his car again, fumbling with the keys, his vision blurring the more he strained himself.

"Let me take you home, Enji." Enji felt his hands on his shoulder, but just as he tried to tell Hawks to fuck off, his vision faded to black.

Enji opens his eyes and finds himself in his house again. His old house. He's laying in bed when he hears laughter from outside. He gets out of bed and walks towards the source.

The kitchen.

He walks in and sees his family, the sun rays flooding the room, and the golden orange hues illuminating their faces. Rei is mixing something in a large bowl, Fuyumi is greasing up some pans. Natsuo and Touya are eating the chocolate chips from the bag, and Shotou is telling them to save some for the cake. And you. You're there too. Sitting beside Shotou, laughing as Touya sneakily gives you some chocolate chips too. Suddenly, they all turn towards him. Rei motions for him to come in. "Enji! Come in. We're making a cake!" Enji walks towards her, wrapping his arms around her. Rei kisses him, making his kids cringe and tell them to stop. They all laugh. Rei pours the batter into the pans, before raising the spoon. "Okay, who wants to lick the spoon?" And suddenly Touya, Natsuo and you yell "me!" before trying to reach for the spoon. Shotou freezes Natsuo's foot to the floor, while Enji pulls Touya back. Fuyumi grabs the spoon from her mom, and gives it to you, making you smile as you eagerly lick the spatula clean, while Touya and Natsuo whine how its not fair. Everyone laughs as Rei cleans up the batter smeared on your nose with a tissue. Its a heart warming scene. Its all he ever wanted.

But its not the reality he was given now, was it?

As Enji closes his eyes, basking in the warmth of his family, he suddenly hears someone crying. He snaps his eyes open, but the kitchen is empty and dark. He hears the crying again. He gets out of the kitchen quickly, trying to find the source. Its coming from Fuyumi's room. He bursts through the door, looking for Fuyumi, but finds you there instead. You're on the floor whimpering as you're trying to rub your arm with a towel. He kneels next to you. "What's wrong?" You cry when you remove the towel to reveal the huge ice burn on your arm. There were ice crystals littering all over the skin. Enji begins to heat up his palms as he melts the ice downs, slowly allowing the sensation in your arm to return. "What happened?" You sniffled. "F-fuyumi came to my room and said that she wants to go shopping with me, I told her I had to study for my test." You hiccuped. "She didn't like that, she- she said I'm ignoring her, blowing her off- I'm not!" You cried. Enji focused on your arm, heating it up slowly. "I know, you didn't do it on purpose. But maybe you could take some time off school? Think of it as a little break. You could spend more time with Fuyumi, with us." You looked at him in confusion. "B-but she hurt me-" "no, she was just a bit frustrated. You know she didn't mean it, right? She's your big sister, she loves you." You hesitantly nodded. "If you say so..." Enji smiled. "See, its all better now. Let me heat up the towel and wrap it around your arm." He turned to get the towel, but when he turned back, the room was empty.

He heard quiet sobs coming from your room. He made his way to your room and opened door and found you lying on the bed. "What happened?" He asked, taking a seat on your bed. "I saw him, I saw Natsuo put crushed pills- sleeping pills in my food! That's why I've been feeling so sleepy lately. When I confronted him, he told me its for my own good. B-but I know its because he doesn't want me to go out with my friends! He forcefully fed me the food, and then he took my phone away too! He said its because its not good to sleep with your phone but I know he took it because he wants to go through my stuff!" Enji hushed you. "Can you talk to him? Tell him to stop or something." Enji raised an eyebrow. "Natsuo is your big brother. He's just looking out for you. And he's not wrong about going through your phone either. Do you have something to hide?" You shook your head no. "But-!" "Natsuo wouldn't do anything to cause you pain, okay?" You closed your eyes. "Okay." You whispered. Enji closed the door as he left your room. But as soon as he did, he heard banging coming from the basement. He rushed down the stairs and found the door locked. Bursting through the door, he was suddenly engulfed by a small body. It was you again. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Please, help me!" Enji pulled you away from him. "Hey, shh. Its okay. I'm here. What happened?" You sobbed into his chest. "I just went to the grocery store- just for 20 minutes!" Enji already knew what went wrong. "You didn't go with Shotou, did you? You didn't even inform him, right?" You shook your head no. "It slipped my mind. I promise I wasn't running away!" Enji sighed, petting your hair. "How long have you been down here?" You sniffled. "I dont know. It was Wednesday when Shotou pushed me in here." Three days. "Its okay. You've learnt your lesson, right?" You nodded. "Please, I don't want to be down here anymore." Enji led you out of the basement. "Just don't forget to tell Shotou next time, or tell us what you need. We'll bring whatever you want." Enji closed the basement door, but suddenly someone whimpered from inside. He opened the door again, but he found himself in the main bathroom. You were standing in front of the sink, putting some ointment on your shoulder. Enji looked closer and found burn marks on your skin. "Did Touya-" You turned around towards him. "Yes." Enji couldn't take his eyes off the red, burnt skin. "Why?" You shrugged your shoulders. "Does it matter?" You slammed the door shut in his face.

Enji didn't even realise he had begun walking away from the door and towards another one. He instinctively opened the door and found Rei and you. Rei had her arms raised, a sharp knife in her hand. "Rei- what are you doing? Put the knife down!" Suddenly, the rest of his kids appeared in the room. They stood between Rei and him, like a barrier. "Honey, its okay! We know whats best for her!" Rei spoke. Shotou nodded. "Yes. You said so yourself." Fuyumi spoke this time. "We're her family! We wouldn't hurt her!" Touya walked towards Enji. "Besides, if something happens, you promised you would save her, won't you?" Enji nodded. "Of course." "Then trust us. Like you always have." Natsuo said. Enji's eyes moved towards you. You opened your mouth to say something but all of a sudden, Enji was pushed out of the room and the door slammed closed. Enji jumped to the door when he heard your painful, gut wrenching screams. "DAD! STOP THEM! HELP ME! DAD!" Enji kept on banging his fists on the door but the door wouldn't budge.

Then it was silent. All too quiet. The door creaked open a bit. Enji didn't know if he wanted to see whats behind there anymore, but he still pushed the door open. How he wish he hadn't.

Lying on the floor, blood spilled from your mouth and your gut. Your body bore burns and scorch marks, the smell of burnt flesh wafting through the air. Enji fell to his knees. Its too late. "D-daddy? It- hurts."your voice was so quiet, so soft, he almost didn't hear you. "Save me?"you coughed out more blood, with each word. Enji started crying. "I-I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I-I can't." Your eyes dimmed when he said that, your chest finally stopped moving.

Enji finally woke up from his recurrent nightmare. He had been haunted by them ever since your death. Sad thing is, they didn't stray that far from reality. You had come to him many times, begging for help, but he turned you away, assuring you that they're just messing around, that it was an accident, or it was just a one time thing.

It wasn't.

Enji couldn't count how many times you had told him how his family had been hurting you, before you stopped asking all together when you realised he would always take their side.

It took a few minutes for Enji to register that he wasn't lying in his bed, or was in his home for that matter.

Enji groans as he sits up, rubbing his head. He remembers he was at the graveyard and then Hawks was there too. Hawks must've brought him to his home.

Stupid bird. He should just mind his own business.

Enji got up and left the room, leaning against the wall for support as he made his way around the house. Where was Keigo anyways?

He was passing by a garden when he saw someone move there. Enji focused his eyes and saw...you. He sighed. Enji sat down on the porch that opened into the garden. He realised he must've had drank a lot yesterday. Clearly, the effects of intoxication were still there.

You were sitting next to some bushes, trimming up their rough edges, your face turned away from him. You were humming to yourself as you worked.

You always did like plants, flowers especially. That's why he made sure you were buried where there was enough space for some flowers and grass to grow.

"I see you've found her." Hawks handed Enji a cup of coffee. He didn't even realise when he had walked-

Wait.

"You can see her?" Enji asked. Was he still dreaming?

Hawks chuckled. "Of course. She's right there- Enji, did you drink again?"

Enji looked at you, then at Hawks, then back to you. "What?" There's no way. There's no way. Hawks looked at Enji weirdly before he called for you.

"Y/n! Sweetie, come here!" You whipped your head around at Hawks voice.

And Enji sees you.

He wasn't hallucinating. You're real.

You skipped towards them, smiling. And Enji didn't even realise it until you were right in front of them. You had eyes. They were different than your real ones. These new ones, they were the same colour as his. Sharp, turquoise blue.

Were you a doppelganger? Is this some kind of sick joke? He couldn't help but wonder, but some part of him knew that wasn't the case.

Enji stood up when you reached them, the cup falling from his hand.

"Hey, dad."

In a second, Enji had his arms wrapped around you. You're really there. You weren't dead. You're still alive. "Y/n? Is it really you?" Enji asked, tears falling from his eyes as he held you tighter, still in disbelief.

You hugged him back. "Yes. Who else would it be?" You chuckled.

He pulled you away from him, his eyes scanned your face. There was still some charring and faded scars around your eyes, but they were mostly healed. It really is you.

"B-but how?"

You smiled. "Hawks-"

It was like something snapped in him at the hero's name.

Enji suddenly pushed you behind him, taking a protective stance. "What the fuck did you do?!" He growled at Keigo.

Hawks held his arms up in surrender, trying to pacify the man in front of him. "Nothing. I just helped her." Enji pounced at Hawks, pushing him to the ground. He was going to murder Hawks if he even looked at you the wrong way. "Oh yeah? And what the fuck did you want in return, you sick bastard?!" Enji raised his hand to punch him, but he stopped when he felt your tiny hands pull on his arm. "Dad! Please, stop! He saved me! Please!" He could hear the fear in your voice. He got off Hawks and yanked you back to him. "Tell me. Did he threaten you? Harm you? Touch you?" Although Enji's eyes held concern for you, he was scaring you with his grip on your wrist turning painfully tight. "No! Please, stop." You replied, struggling as you tried to free your wrist.

"Enji, calm the fuck down! You're hurting her!" Hawks finally managed to pull his hand off of your wrist. As soon as he did, Enji saw his handprint around your wrist.

Fuck.

You moved behind Hawks, peeking at Enji from between his wings, your eyes pooling with unshed tears. Enji's heart sank.

Looking at your scared form, Enji couldn't help but recall how different it used to be before. How you used to run to him for help, seek his protection.

And now, you need to be saved from him.

"I-I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Y/n. I didn't mean to." He reached his hand out for yours. When you moved further behind Hawks, his heart broke. You were scared of him. Your eyes holding the same fear as they once held for the rest of his family.

"Y/n, darling, why don't you go tend to the bushes. I need to talk to your father." You scurried away as soon as Hawks said that.

"She's scared of me." Enji's voice held guilt.

Hawks patted his back. "Don't worry. She'll come around soon."

Hawks sat on the porch step, motioning Enji to sit beside him as well. He sat but kept his eyes towards your form. "What happened, Keigo?"

"Well, when you had called me, informing me how Rei had stabbed Y/n, I came as quickly as possible. I remember you were holding Rei back, stopping her from entering the hospital room. Once your kids had arrived and taken their mother away, you told me to keep guard while you sorted out some hospital forms." Hawks took a sip of his coffee before continuing. "Y/n had woken up a few minutes after you had left. And she started crying as soon as she was conscious. I tried calming her down, but she was- hysterical. She kept on saying how they were going to torture her again. I told her that Enji would make sure they wouldn't. She kept on insisting that you were going to take Rei's side." Hawks looked at Enji. "And you and I both know know, you would've." Enji held his head shamefully, because he was right. He would've taken his family's side yet again.

"She asked me to kill her, Enji."

Enji's eyes widened at that, turning his head to Hawks. "What?" Hawks nodded, his eyes stone cold. "She said she'd rather be dead than return to your house." Enji felt like someone had drove a spear through his chest. Oh god, how long had you been feeling like that? "Thats when I decided to take her."

"But how? We buried her." Hawks rolled his eyes.

"It isn't hard to find a body. You know that."

Enji nodded. Right. "And her eyes?"

"Got a quirk doctor to replace them."

Enji's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "But Natsuo said that they were irreplaceable-"

"Natsuo lied, Enji. All of your kids did. They were going to side with their mother, no matter what. And Rei wanted her to remain blind, so everyone made sure she did." He took another sip of his coffee. "You have a fucked up family."

Enji clenched his jaw at that, but it was the truth. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Hawks raised his eyebrows in disbelief. "You're hard to track. You went into hiding and I had to run your agency, clean up your mess so that the public doesn't find out and I had a daughter at home to look after too. I guess you could say, I was a bit occupied."

"Oh. I'm sorry." Enji looked towards where you were, happily tending to your garden, completely oblivious to your surroundings. You looked so lively, so content. "Is...is she happy?" Hawks smiled at that. He still adores you. "Yes. She stays at home mostly, tending to the garden, but she occasionally goes out as well."

Enji looked at Hawks. "Alone? What if she runs away? What if something happens to her?"

Hawks shook his head. "She won't. Where's she going to go? She knows that your kids are still out there, and if they ever saw her, God knows what they'll do to her." Hawks crossed his arms against his chest. "Besides, I gave her a special bracelet. It has a tracking device in it and if she ever runs into trouble, all she needs to do is tap it and I'll be there!"

Hawks really had it all figured it out. Everything was under control, so why was he there? "Why did you bring me?"

"To save you." Enji stared at him in confusion. "You can't live without her, Enji. The past few months are evidence that you can't. You almost drank yourself to death." Hawks ran a hand through his hair, frustrated. "Look at yourself. Your eyes are bloodshot, you drink, you smoke, you're depressed as fuck. Is this the kind of hero you imagined yourself becoming? Is this the kind of father you want to be?"

"Keigo I-"

"You know, she never spoke ill of you once. Never. If anything, she told me that her good memories with your family, were mostly with you. Almost like she misses you."

"What do you want me to do, Keigo?" He asked helplessly, because Enji truly didn't know.

"I want you to stay here." He began. "Be the hero she needs; the father she needs."

"Keep your promise to her." Hawks eyes were full with fierce emotion as he reminded Enji of his promise.

I'll keep you safe. I promise.

Those word had been echoing in his mind forever, always accompanied by gore filled images of you.

"Raise the family you always dreamt of."

As if something had finally clicked, Enji nodded before he slowly made his way towards you. Hawks watched as Enji sat down beside you and talked to you. You smiled slowly before handing him a pair of gardening gloves as you taught him how to plant some flowers.

It was a good thing that Hawks cared about both of you deeply.

He was happy he was going to save his hero, Endeavour.

He was happy that he was going to start anew with you guys.

He was happy as he saw the love of his life and his goddaughter, now daughter, playing in the mud.

He was beyond ecstatic when he had slit Rei's throat in the asylum.

"What?" Hawks asks you, the person reading this story. He leans towards you, face mere inches away from yours, and smirks.

"That bitch had it coming."

So...

How was it?

Oh and yes, I will be taking asks for this (and answering some previous ones as well)

⇢ synopsis: Min Yoongi wears leather jackets, fucks you like he hates you, spends most of his days on the wrong side of a blunt, and calls you the sweetest names when no one else is around. And you definitely aren’t falling in love with him.

⇢ author’s note: so yes, buttercup is being cut up into two parts thanks to a lot of my life getting uprooted this week!!! ill spare you the details but everything is really chaotic rn so im sorry this isnt exactly what i promised :( thank u for all the insane amont of love ive gotten so far. this is a pretty um... filthy piece of writing skfjsd and it’s definitely not perfect and id love to get better with everything i put out on here but i hope u guys enoy ily xx

If there was a magic lantern hidden somewhere on the campus of this university, you’d find it and your first wish would be to make it so that no one found out about this whole illicit affair you’ve been having with Min Yoongi. The secrecy was fun, sexy like you guys had a whole Mr. and Mrs. Smith thing going on. Or something. Your second wish would be to make his dick vibrate. 

But then he just had to go and go down on you in a bathroom during a party at the Beta Tau Rho house, not even a month into the fall semester, knowing you wouldn’t be able to be quiet or subtle at all. And he was so smug about it too, the fucker.

You can still feel the embarrassment buzzing under the surface of your cheeks from when you walked out that bathroom door and a dozen frat boys and mutual friends of yours and Yoongi’s were out there, waiting for the two of you to emerge and giving you a round of applause when you did. Yoongi had just laughed and rolled his eyes before leading you to the kitchen to get the pair of you some drinks. He’s always been particularly good at brushing that shit off of his shoulder. You aren’t, but you’re pretty good at pretending.

Maybe you should have ended it all that night. Of course, you didn’t. You figured, hey,  you’re young and in school so fuck making good decisions. Of course, the fact that no other guy has ever been able to dick you down nearly as well as Min Yoongi can is probably a huge contributing factor. 

Sure he might be grumpy, and sarcastic, and he tries way too hard to look cool and nonchalant, but he’s also the first guy to ever make you squirt. And you’re pretty sure that the way he waxes poetic about your pussy would make even Shakespeare swoon. So maybe the pros outweigh the cons, but only just.

“I can’t believe you’ve been getting Yoongi dick for almost three full months and haven’t divulged every single detail and vein to me, you cold, uncaring bitch-” Jimin’s voice is far too loud for the student-run coffee shop the two of you regulared every Sunday; a tradition that Jimin always insisted upon. He loves his traditions almost as much as he loves destroying any personal boundaries between the two of you.

“Keep going Park, see if I ever buy your coffee again.”

“Don’t change the subject,” You can’t say you’re surprised that Jimin is reacting like this. Self-proclaimed ‘disaster bisexual,’ Jimin was one of the very first friends you made back when you were a shy, barely functioning freshman. 

He actually introduced you to all his frat brothers, and a large number of the people you now call your friends. Including Yoongi, whose dick seems to be a reoccurring topic between you and… most people you know. Even if they weren’t at that dumb party, Jungkook made sure that every living being that stepped onto campus was aware of the newly found out fuckbuddies.

“We don’t keep anything from each other, Y/N,” He’s whining over his coffee now, full lips perched in that pretty pout that he regularly uses to his advantage. “I even told you about that time I puked on Namjoon’s dick in our second year!”

“Mmm, and I wish you hadn’t told me, Minnie-” The visual still haunts you, but Jimin has never had any predilections when it came to oversharing, especially not with people who have the misfortune of being his best friends. “‘Sides, I didn’t figure it was important, the whole Yoongi thing-”

“His dick, you mean.”

“Because it’s not like we’re getting married,” You carefully ignore him, a useful habit you’ve picked up three years into being his friend. “Just sex, remember?”

“So fucking what? You told me how you sucked Jeon’s cock in a movie theatre less than twelve hours after it happened-” You take a large gulp of your own iced coffee to busy yourself when the shameful memory is brought up. Not shameful because of the promiscuity of the act, no you’re an adult, thank you very much, but rather because of the boy you performed them on. Jeon Jungkook is now more of an annoying younger brother to you than anything. Not to mention he’s got a giant mouth that couldn’t keep a secret even if it killed him.

“Jesus you could’ve picked any other example-” You groan out as Jimin smirked, receiving the exact reaction from you he wanted. You think you’d have learned by now. “I’m sorry, okay? You big baby.”

“Hey, you’re on thin ice,” He points an accusatory finger at you and you have to fight the urge to smack it out of your face. “Now you have to make it up to me.”

You sigh- Jimin can really be exhausting when you’re only half a medium coffee in. “And how do you expect me to do that, Park.”

“Dick details, fucking obviously,” He says it like you’re a moron for even asking. And maybe you are. “Well details in general, I guess. You know, the basics; length, girth, does he make you call him daddy, is he good- I mean he must be un-fucking-real if you’ve been bouncing on it for three goddamn months, you whore.”

“I’m not giving you measurements, Jimin, I’ve yet to take a tape measure to it- and stop assuming everyone has a daddy kink just ‘cause you do.”

“Okay, vanilla bitch. You’re lucky I already know he’s got a monster cock from that time he streaked at that post-mid-term party next year.”

“Then why’d you even ask?”

“To see if you’d tell me the truth. It was a test and you failed.”

“I may be a college student but you’re gonna have to threaten me with a little more than a failing grade to spook me,” You roll your eyes playfully- there’s no real threat in his words, there never is.

“You’re right, I’m sure you’d much rather be punished by Yoongi, huh?”

                    ..............................................................................

Watching Yoongi roll a joint, his long, slender and experienced fingers moving quickly and deftly, has always had this near hypnotizing-like effect on you. His apartment smells like weed, the scent never surprising and would almost be overwhelming if you weren’t so used to it by now. The sight alone is almost enough to make you wet. But you’re stronger than that- except for when you’re not. 

Sexy hands aside, but unfortunately not on you, you’re thankful for his cannabis-related expertise because a) you can’t roll one yourself to save your life and b) despite normally reserving your consumption habits for parties, you feel like you deserve a fat one after the week you’ve had. What with, you know, the stress of having every student on campus knowing about yours and Yoongi’s torrid affair, thanks to fucking Jeon Jungkook. Brat. Plus incessant goading from both Jimin and your roommate, Irene- equally angry as Jimin about your worst kept secret- has only made you sink further into your insecure and paranoid thoughts.

The weed would help, you’d told yourself when your phone pinged with that much anticipated what’re u up 2? late night text from the raven-haired devil himself. Yep, it was the weed, the comforting blanket of getting high. And had nothing to do with the boy that was offering them. Not even his fat cock or magnetic pull he seemed to have on you. 

“Alright, dove,” He says from his spot on his worn-out single-dorm couch- the names don’t tend to surprise you the way they used to. You kinda figured that the affection-starved Yoongi had just you know… gotten comfortable with the girl he had been fucking for the last couple of months. No big deal. Sure they made your heart swell and your panties dampen, but then it could be looked at as a positive. 

He looks up at you from his spot on the couch, where he’s uncomfortably hunched over the table as he works and notices how you’re looking rather spaced out- not entirely rare for you. He’s used to the hundred-mile stare you tend to adopt when deep in thought, though it’s considerably less common for a sober you.

“Dove?” Nothing. “Y/N?” It’s the use of your actual name from his lips that finally grabs your attention.  You finally turn your head to look at him, the glaze of deep thought finally leaving your eyes. An eyebrow quirks to let him know you’ve heard him, but his gaze remains piercing and unwavering on yours. “You need to stop worrying so much, dove.”

“That’s what the weed is for, Yoongs.”

“The weed? You’re just here so I can smoke you out then, huh? No ulterior motives, hm?” His tone is as dry and sarcastic as ever, qualities he had quickly become known for around campus. He shurgs “Fine. Just here to sesh. C’mere then.”

You scoot closer to his side of the couch, not even thinking twice before listening to him. His tongue is tantalizing as he licks the rolling paper, even if he doesn’t mean it to be. He’s almost always tantalizing to you.

“Don’t be grumpy. You invited me over,” Your words are softer than you meant, but your proximity to him makes you feel stilted. He was right, you really needed a smoke, more on edge than ever.

“Well, technically,” He starts, unlit, perfectly rolled joint now perched between his lips. He grabs at your legs before continued so that you were resting sideways on the black couch, legs strewn over legs, thighs touching thighs. “I invited the best pussy on campus over.” You crinkle your nose at his bluntness.

“Yoongi-” You scold indignantly and pinch at a well-toned bicep. “Don’t be an asshole, you asshole.” He grins despite the insult like he’d expected it. Or he’s revelling in it.

“You know I’m just fucking around, angel,” His arm tucks around your waist comfortably, pulling you even closer. “Tryna chill you out. I can tell when you’re all strung out. I know how you,” He pokes you in the middle of the forehead, still grinning, as you pout from being called strung out. “Tick.” 

He really does, doesn't he? The thought is mildly terrifying, and you think that Yoongi might be too smart or his own good sometimes. When he’s not smoking himself into another dimension, that is.

He leans back into his seat, uncurling from around you to finally light up. A few sparks later and the room is fogging up with overly pungent smoke- the cheap smell makes you think that he probably bought it off of Hobi, too lazy to go any further off-campus than his own block of apartments to one of the nice but relatively affordable dispensaries. You crinkle your nose at the scent, grateful he’s too distracted to notice since he’d probably just tease you for liking the fancy shit more. At least you trust Hobi, and he lives only two buildings down from Yoongi. Truly an age of convenience.

A few passes, tokes, whatevers later, and you’re feeling substantially... floaty. You’ve completely relaxed, choosing to lie down rather than put the effort into sitting up, though your legs are still thrown across your equally high counterpart’s. What’s left of the roach is left to burn in one of many strategically placed ashtrays around the apartment, this one being on the living room table.

Yoongi has barely moved in the past while, head resting lazily on the back of the couch, black hair messy and his neck- which is somehow handsome to you- stretched out, and hands resting against your bare knees. You’ve barely paid him any mind, the silence nothing but comforting and easy. 

Which is why you can’t help but jolt just a little in surprise when those hands, the hypnotizing ones you’re so obsessed with suddenly start creeping up your legs, halfway up your thighs, carefully kneading the supple flesh he finds there. He chuckles at your reaction, finally picking his up his head to watch you through heavy-lidded eyes. “Bet you’re extra sensitive right now, huh petal?” He doesn’t have to bet because he knows it’s true, knows how needy you get when you’ve smoked. And he loves it- it’s why he never makes you pay for any of the times he smokes you out.

“Fuck off,” You whine at his light-hearted teasing, but Yoongi just giggles- he fucking giggles- in response, hands still travelling the expanse of your thighs. 

“Be nice,” His words are still jovial, but there’s a gruffness behind them that sends a shiver down your spine, despite the relative stuffiness of his living room.

“I am nice, you’re just a dick,” You pout- childish, but you can’t quite come up with anything more clever at the moment. The jab may be weaker than your usual quips, but Yoongi seems to have decided it’s enough to warrant a punishment of sorts, as he sends a quick slap onto your thigh. It’s certainly not the harshest hit you’ve received from him, it’s more playful than anything, but it’s enough to make you whine, not even noticing when your own hands jump down to grab at him and your now sore flesh.

His eyes take on a new sort of darkness, beyond the dilated pupils from the high he’s in the middle of as he grabs at your wrists, any assault you had planned halting in its tracks. His large hands that you’ve drooled over- figuratively and literally- many a time are big enough that he only needs one of them to hold both of yours steady. He uses his grip on you to yank you back up to a sitting position, where your noses almost touch and you can feel his breath fan across your lips.

“I told you, I know how you tick,” He lets his tongue swipe out to wet his lips, the act distracts you and makes you mimic it with your own tongue and lips. The smirk he gives you is all at once wicked and panty dampening. “Which means I know you like it when I’m mean. I know you like when I treat you like this, like my little slut,” The word makes you draw in a breath as your face reddens in humiliation and tension. “And- and I know you’re probably soaking through your panties right now, all over my couch. Making a fucking mess.”

It infuriates you to no end how right he is as your breaths come out shaky and uneven as you feel your pussy flutter around nothing beneath your shorts and panties. 

“Aren’t you?” His tone doesn’t leave room for playfulness anymore, and you’re nodding dumbly before you can give it a second thought. “Good girl.”

He doesn’t give you any time to bask in the praise before he’s leaning in to capture your lips in a searing and sloppy kiss. He’s domineering even in the way he kisses you, teeth biting and tongue sweeping into your own mouth as he revels in the small sounds that escape you. His hands leave your wrists, freeing them so you can grip onto raven locks with a newly freed hand as his own wrap around your waist. 

Every sense is filled with him, and it is all at once comforting and exhilarating.

He tugs and roughly manhandles you so that you’re properly astride his denim-covered thighs, your lips never untangling in the process. When your lips finally do come apart, it’s with a lewd sound and a gasp from your mouth. He’s still smirking.

“Gonna fuck you so good petal,” Yoongi has always been so blunt and unforgiving, whether in bed or out and it had been one of the things that first attracted you to him, besides his obvious good looks. 

Before the two of you had even gotten together, when you were friends who didn’t fuck on the regular, you had even mustered up the courage to touch yourself to the thought of him speaking to you like this- your own fingers circling your clit and delving into yourself without abandon. You had only been able to imagine up a fraction of his sexual prowess. 

Like the time only a few weeks ago you admitted to him in a foggy haze, high than you think you’d ever been. how you’d brought yourself to climax with images and soundbites of him flitting through your head. He’d immediately made you put on a show for him- recreating those nights, but this time with him sitting feet away from you and ignoring your pleas for him to touch you.

Right now, however, the only things keeping you grounded in reality is the feeling of the muscles in his thighs flexing beneath you, though nowhere near where you truly ache to be touched, and one of his hands brutishly tangled in your hair, pulling harshly so he can have easy access to your neck. Plush lips start soft, kissing and licking at the skin there, before his teeth join in, biting and sucking like he loves the taste of you (because he does).

“Y-yoongi-” You’re trying to keep the whimpers at bay, like maybe if you stop yourself from seeming so turned on so fast it’ll get him to fuck you faster. “C’mon, just fuck me already.”

“So demanding for such a needy bitch,” He has you squirming on his lap and you don’t know why you thought you had any power over him left. “Have you forgotten your place? Can’t think of anything else but getting fucked, huh?”

You nod in agreement, but find out he must want a verbal response when you’re met with a sharp spank to your ass that has you squealing and bucking into his lap. “Yeah, yeah Yoongi ‘m sorry, just need it.”

“I know, baby, I know, you can’t even help it when you get all messy like this, I know,” You can’t decide whether his words are sweet or patronizing when he coos at you like that, but either way he’s got you another pair of panties.

“Need you to fix it, Yoongs,” All pride is out the window when he’s got you like this, and you love pleading with him to give you what you want almost as much as likes making you beg.

“I will,” He gives you one more harsh bite to the junction of your neck and your shoulder that you know will blossom into a bruise just in time for your 10 AM class tomorrow and you hiss at the mingling of pain and pleasure. “Now fucking get up,” He pats lightly at your thigh twice at the order.

You’re in no position to disobey, and you know from experience that not listening to him will end up with a sore ass and no release in sight. You stand up on shaky, doe-like legs and he grins at the sight of you. He stands up with you, his lean form and strong stance making him look taller than he really is. Then his long fingers are pulling at what little clothing you have, stripping you of both your tank top and your shorts and your bra isn’t far behind. Soon you’re clad only in your panties while he’s still fully clothed in black form-fitting jeans and a plain white t-shirt. Thankfully he leaves his cliche, but devastatingly sexy leather jacket at the door.

He doesn’t make any move to undress at all and you hope to god he will eventually- you love seeing his honey-coloured skin covered in a thin layer of sweat as he fucks you into oblivion. But for now, he stays fully clothed and he roughly pulls you by your upper arm until he can bend you over the arm of the couch, panty-covered ass high and perfectly on display for him.

“God, you’re fucking dripping,” He taunts, fingers running over your pussy through the thin cotton, making you whine into the rough cushion your face is resting on. “All this from almost nothing, huh? You’re such a fucking slut for me, shit.” He sounds genuinely amazed by you and when you uncomfortably crane your neck back to get a good look at him you let out a proper moan. He must have stripped his shirt off when you weren’t facing him, because his chest is bare for you to gaze at, or you would gaze at it if you weren’t distracted by the hand that isn’t on you, which is lazily working over his cock, rock hard and aching through his jeans.

He smirks when he notices what’s grabbed your attention, knowing you’re only moments away from quite literally drooling on his pillows. “Is this what you want? Hm?”

“Ye-yeah your cock, Yoongi, need your cock,” Your face burns red and blood burns hot as the crude words leave your mouth.

“And you’ll fucking get it, dove,” The cute name contrasts the second harsh spank he lands on your ass and you moan at the delicious sting. 

You think that he must be about to tear your panties off and sink into you, but that would be too predictable and Yoongi loves to keep you on your toes. Instead, he disappears from your line of sight, a dull thump coming from the hardwood as he drops to his knees, feline gaze now level with your cunt. 

“Yoongi-” You’re whining again, and you even have to hold yourself back from stomping your foot childishly because, god, you just need him to do something.

And then he finally does- he licks a thick stripe, right from your clit to your entrance, still over your panties, and you gasp in surprise. He does it again, twice, three, four times until your hips are bucking and you’re whining because you need more, you need him to actually touch you and not be a giant fucking tease for once in his life.

“Be fucking patient,” He hisses out, but at least he’s finally rolling your underwear down your legs to toss them somewhere across the room. “Or I swear to god, I’ll hold you down just like this so you can’t even squirm while I get myself off all over your messy cunt,” His hand is running up and down your bare pussy as he speaks, spreading the wetness around, to your clit and your thighs and your ass and then back again. “And then I’ll send you home without touching you or cleaning you up, so you’ll have to take the subway home covered in my come and fucking trembling. So be fucking good.” At the last word, he lands a mean slap against your gushing cunt and you let out an embarrassing squeak.

“Shit-fuck- Yoongi, please, just-” You stutter through your words, needing to get them out, though you don’t know why. “I’ll be good, okay? ‘M your good girl, I am, promise, I’ll be good.”

He doesn’t respond, at least not verbally. But you have to assume he’s happy with your desperate response when he finally delves into your pussy like a man starved, tongue licking into you, the muscle sending spasms up and down your legs. You have to muffle your moans by biting into a pillow, not needing another altercation with his neighbours, but you want nothing more than to yell his name as loud as you can until your voice goes hoarse when he shakes his head from side to side, tongue still buried inside of you and one of his hands now roughly circling your clit. 

It’s too much, but it’s not nearly enough. It’s when he switches positions between his hand and mouth that you think you might explode; his mouth latches onto your clit, tongue circling and playing with it and two fingers fucking into you, preparing you for the impressive girth of his own cock.

Your teeth let go of the strong grip it has so you can warn him of your impending orgasm. “Yoongi- gonna come-” You manage to choke out between barely quieted moans.

You know that he wouldn’t be able to respond if he was still suckling on your clit, but you still whine and wiggle your hips as he pulls away, earning you yet another spank to your rear, where you can only assume a nice handprint is forming. “Yeah? Want you to come all over my face, like a good messy whore- gotta come for me before I can fuck you like you need.” 

When his mouth finds your swollen clit again, you can’t help it as your orgasm barrels through you almost violently, every muscle tensing and fingers grasping at whatever they can find, neighbour’s delicate sensibilities forgotten as you moan out Yoongi’s name. He licks you through it, fingers no longer pistoning into you. When the last of the tremors have faded he finally pulls away, using his clean hand to wipe your mess off of his chin, though it hardly cleans him. 

“Good fucking girl,” The roughness with which he was grinding his still covered bulge into your now sopping wet center would be impossible to ignore even if your head weren’t a million miles away. But for now, everything is Yoongi, every single scent is filled with him and you think that that might be making your head even fuzzier than the drugs coursing through your system, but you’re too far gone to be sure. Or to even care.

Because all you can think about is his mouth-watering hands kneading at the slightly pinkened skin of your ass, his mouth-watering cock rutting against you and his mouth-watering, well, mouth pressing wet kisses and occasional bites up and down your spine. “Yoongi,” You meant to speak with at least a little more conviction, but his name comes out as little more than a mumble.

“Hm,” He hums against your skin and even those slight vibrations reverberate straight to your heart, which starts beating faster at the thought of what’s to come. “What, is my babygirl still needy?” 

The use of the word my in front of the affectionate name makes your heart jump, but you don’t even have time to scold yourself for thinking with your post-orgasmic pussy before he continues talking with that sinful mouth of him. “Such a greedy, desperate girl, won’t be happy ‘til you’re stuffed full of my fat cock,” His words have you whining and grinding back against him, where you don’t have to look to know you’re leaving a stain on his favourite jeans.  If you’re unlucky- or lucky depending on your mood- he’ll make you clean it up with your tongue as further delicious torture. 

But smoking makes Yoongi needy too, no matter how much he teases you for the effect it has on you, and he can’t wait much longer, not with his cock so hard he was a razor blades’ edge from losing his mind. He needs to be inside you as much as you need him.

Which is why you don’t doubt him for a second when he’s murmuring things about how he’s ‘gonna fuck you so good, gonna fuck you stupid,’ and you can only respond with even quieter whispers of ‘I knows’ and ‘pleases’ as he strips himself oh the rest of his clothes, hissing from oversensitivity as his cock makes contact with the air. It’s wonderfully overwhelming and he’s not even fucking you yet.

You can’t even explain how grateful you are when Yoongi turns you around because you love just seeing his cock. You’ve never been one to describe guys’ dicks as pretty before- except that TA you managed to fuck before Jimin sunk his claws into him, Kim Seokjin, because, well, you’re not blind. But Yoongi’s dick is gorgeous. It’s not the biggest thing you’ve ever seen, and it doesn’t have to be, not when it’s girthy enough to make you salivate with a curve that points to the heavens. Gorgeous.

He’s pulling you on top of him so he can sit back down and you’re back to straddling him, and you don’t complain because you know he’s tired both from the pot and crouching on his haunches for access to your center not two minutes ago. Plus he loves when you ride him, breasts bouncing in his face, wetness making a mess out of his lap and full access of your entire body for both his hands and lips.

“Need you to bounce on my fat cock before I fucking explode, baby,” And you’d have to be some sort of a madwoman to deny him.

“Need it too, Yoongs,” You don’t know why you feel the need to remind how desperate you are for him, surely he can feel it, your swollen pussy resting only centimetres above his throbbing length. “Can’t think of anything else.”

“I know,” He’s rubbing the angry red tip against your sopping folds, tinges of overstimulation making you jolt. Or you would jolt if his hands weren’t heavy on your waist, keeping you steady so you couldn’t a) get away from his cock or b) properly sink down onto it. “So pathetic and perfect for me like this, all cock drunk and fucked out and I haven’t even fucked you yet, huh?”

You nod frantically, and you can’t even find the energy to be embarrassed when a hand comes up to pet your hair with a condescending ‘awe’ as he pouts at you. You bat his hand away with a whine and furrowed eyebrows, but all that gets you is his hand tangled in your hair, yanking sharply in retaliation. “Careful, slut, or you won’t be coming for the next week-”

“Please, Yoongi-” You don’t let him finish, knowing from experience to always take his threats seriously. “I’m sorry, I’m fucking sorry, okay just please-”

You cut yourself off with a high pitched, tea kettle-like squeak as he uses his hands on you as leverage to have you sink down onto his cock in one fell swoop. “Shit, god, you’re always so fucking tight around me, fuck me.”

I am, is what you wish you were coherent enough to snark back with, but you’re sure no one would blame you if they could feel what you feel right now. And what you’re feeling right now is how well Yoongi feels inside of you, like no cock you’ve ever had. Every ridge and vein on his cock fills you up to the fucking brim, no room left for a pinky or a thought that has to do with anything other than Yoongi, Yoongi, Yoongi.

And then he starts with those devilish moments of his hip, fucking into you shallowly and slowly to start and it’s all Yoongi’s dick. 

“Fucking bounce on it, dove. Fuck yourself on my cock, show me how much you need it,” He speaks through gritted teeth, each word a struggle as he tries not to fuck into you without thought. And it’s with the satisfaction you get knowing he’s just as desperate for you as you are for him that you find the strength to do as he says.

With quivering thighs, you push up and off of his cock, the two of you sharing a harmonious groan at the feeling, foreheads pressed against each other, skin sweaty. And this all just in the calm before the storm. 

It’s not long before the both of you are moving frantically, mere seconds, really. It’s intense and all-encompassing, as you grind and roll your hips, cock deeper than you knew to be possible, and his bucking his own hips into you roughly, no doubt as deeply in some sort of euphoria as you are. His hands are everywhere and so are his lips. He sucks marks into your tits and gropes your ass, controlling your movements to the best of his abilities.

All of that, plus your clit grinding against his pelvic bone every other second and your head just might be in another universe. 

Yoongi’s words are swirling around in your head, though you’re not properly taking any of it in- his velvety voice goes on about how wet you are, how tight you are, how you’re a good girl and it’s all another instrument in your downfall. You’ve never been much for heights but being with Yoongi feels like something akin to what you assume bungee jumping is like, and you’re just about at that point where your cord runs out of length and your heart drops to the bottom of your stomach.

“Tell me you’re fucking close, baby, c’mon,” This is as close to pleading as you can ever get Yoongi but you’re still swimming in pride. He brings a hand off of your ass to cup your cheek, brushing away your now mussed hair and a single stray tear and you drink in the look in his eyes, dark red-rimmed and needing. “Gonna fill you up with my come, just like I know you like, my perfect little cumslut, fuck, just need you to come first, yeah? All over my fucking cock.”

And with a particularly hard grasp at your ass, bringing you to grind your clit against him again, you’re gone. It’s considerably less intense than the previous one, as many second orgasms are, but your head is still spinning and you think you might have drooled a little, but you don’t mind and you know Yoongi doesn’t. Your attempts to stifle your moans are unsuccessful as the name of the man attached to your favourite cock falls from your lips like a mantra.

And where your orgasm is, Yoongi is rarely far behind- he loves seeing you fall apart around him, because of him and you always clench so fucking hard around him in the peak of your pleasure how could he fucking not. He’s grunting, moaning, damn near growling as he spurts his own release as deep into you as he possibly can, coating every inch of your delectable pussy, vague mumbles of how he’s filling you up, just like you’re meant to be that you can just barely hear.

Shakey breaths hit each of your faces as you come down, now still and worn out. Your chests move up and down and you don’t know when you’ve buried your face into the crook of his neck, but the warmth and smell are more comforting than any hit you’ve ever taken off of one of his blunts.

“Shit, buttercup,” He chuckles, the vibrations rumbling through his chest and where you’ve tucked yourself He runs a hand through his sweaty black locks, the other hand locked around your waist. “I don’t know how we’re gonna move without making this couch fucking disgusting.” Mood killer.

“Don’t give a shit.”

“Yeah, but I do. Especially if Joon or Hobi someone finds it and makes a big fucking deal out of it, like no other guy in his twenties has some come stained furniture.”

You pull back from the spot you wish he’d just let you fall asleep in so he can see your pout. He can’t find the sight of you… adorable? Your hair matted, bruises, courtesy of yours truly littering your tits and chest, a thin sheen of sweat making your skin glow and bottom lip jutted out exactly enough to be overexaggerated and so fucking adorable. 

At that moment he’s glad that about three weeks ago the two of you had started to break the unspoken no sleeping over after sex rule because he just wants to clean you up and feel you curl yourself around him like you like to.

You don’t know what time it is, just that it’s late and that it doesn't matter, because this was certainly time well spent. You wonder how much sleep you’ve given up in lieu of Yoongi’s pretty dick. Of course, it does matter... because you have a 9 am class tomorrow morning that you can’t miss, but that’s for future you to worry about. For now, it’s time to try to get up without defiling this Ikea couch (you failed miserably and giggled about it while Yoongi groaned in mock pain), burn out just one more joint, steal some clothes for bed and some snacks from his fridge, and pass the fuck out on his bed, which you think is way better than yours, but that has nothing to do with the boy in it or his comforting warmth and smell.

                     ..............................................................................

Past you is a dumb bitch. Also maybe current you. Point being, you hate you, because you’re sore and stiff and ten minutes late to your dumb 9 am class and it’s all Yoongi’s fucking fault. You texted him this much, calling him a ‘little bitch boy’ for not even waking you up to make you a cup of coffee with his fancy instant coffee machine before you left. He hasn’t responded yet because holy fuck does that guy sleep like a rock. A really cute, cuddly, sex-god rock.

But, as usual, Jimin came in clutch, handing you off a coffee as your paths crossed on campus, each of you heading to your respective classes. He gave you a one-armed-too-tight hug and a comment on how you have that very glamourous ‘I got fucked by Min Fucking Yoongi last night and you didn’t so I’m better than you look.’ You tried to take it as a compliment as you thanked him for the coffee. He gave you a cute kiss to your forehead that reminded you you could never even be annoyed at him for too long.

And now you’re in class. Headache from not getting enough sleep getting worse by the second while you tried not to think about what judgements people must be passing on you, with your sunglasses inside and hickeys you didn’t have time to cover up.

When your phone pings you assume it’s Jimin, with something slutty or sarcastic or both. But it’s not. It’s Yoongi- well, it’s what you have Yoongi’s number saved under, aka the drooling emoji three times over… You’re surprised he’s awake, you’re pretty sure he doesn’t have shit to do until the afternoon. 

You have a fleeting thought that it could be a dick pic- yeah it’s a little early for that kind of dumb fuckboy behaviour, and you’d previously thought that too, but Kim Taehyung proved you wrong last year. 

Yoongi isn’t a dick pic kind of guy anyway. No, he’s the guy that sends pictures of his hand around your throat that one night you let him take artsy photos of you two fucking on his film camera. The kind of guy that sends you audios of him jerking off and moaning your name that you listen to through your earphones in between classes because he knew you wouldn’t be able to help yourself. He’s the guy that drives you crazy because you can never quite predict what he’s gonna do next.

[9:23 am] From 🤤🤤🤤: you could have woken me you know dummy

[9:24 am] From 🤤🤤🤤: subways are gross in the morning

[9:25 am] From 🤤🤤🤤: i could have u know, driven u…

HERE'S WHAT I JUST REALIZED ABOUT RULE

Ideas can morph. The switch to the new norm may be surprisingly fast, because the startups that can retain control tend to be one of the only programming languages a serious hacker would want to use it from examples in a couple minutes.1 Maybe it's a good thing for the world if people who wanted to get rich now you don't have to be in it yet. When my friends Robert Morris and Trevor Blackwell were in grad school, one of the signs of a good idea, but you have less control over the rate at which you turn yours into a prepared mind. That will be a good plan to have Jobs speak for 9 minutes and have Woz speak for a minute or so. One of the startups from the batch that just started, AirbedAndBreakfast, is in NYC right now meeting their users.2 The latter is much more expensive. Contradiction. It has sometimes been said that Lisp should use first and rest instead of car and cdr, because it becomes a filter for selecting bad startups.3

Or more importantly, if you include short term room rental, second home rental, bed and breakfast, and other similar classes of accommodations, you get mathematicians and writers and artists.4 But what a difference it makes to be able to refuse such an offer if they had grown to the point where they were a rooted in your town and/or b so successful that VCs would fund them even if they didn't move. Startups need to be designed using a small set of orthogonal operators, just like the core language. Most programmers are told what language to use, at least subconsciously, based on the total number of characters he'll have to type an unnecessary character, or even still in it, and they won't even fund them. I think rising economic inequality is the inevitable fate of countries that don't choose something worse. Because you get a lot of people. And in the early 1970s, before C, MIT's dialect of Lisp, called MacLisp, was one of the big successes?5 There is also a complementary force at work: if you have no ideas.

He got away with it, but unless you're a good con artist, you'll never convince investors if you're not convinced yourself.6 This kind of work is the future. It would be a pretty cheap experiment, as civil expenditures go. We can get rid of or make optional a lot of the same things we said at the last two. When you feel that about an idea you've had while trying to come up with startup ideas, you're probably mistaken. Anything that can be implicit, should be. Good programmers often want to do now. There's a lot to like I've done a few things, like intro it to my friends at Foundry who were investors in Service Metrics and understand this model I am also talking to my friend Mark Pincus who had an idea like this a few years down the line.

You have to produce something. If you can't already do it, the best solution is to tackle the problem head-on, at best. This section is now obsolete for YC founders presenting at Demo Day only needs to be able to violate this rule. They think they're trying to convince one another to invest in Airbnb.7 That last sentence is the fatal one. I think a bigger problem is that a programming language is not Lisp.8 The schlep filter is so dangerous that I wrote a separate essay about the condition it induces, which I called schlep blindness.9 Because you get a lot of the earlier stage ones would probably take it.

This pattern is no coincidence: it is the people who might want what you're making, then the total addressable market, or TAM, of your company is doing. I do: that being mean makes you stupid.10 The usual motives are few: drugs, money, sex, revenge.11 But there may still be money to be made from something like journalism.12 Increasingly you win not by fighting to get control of a scarce resource, but by having new ideas and building new things. Committees yield bad design. Plus they're investing other people's money, which makes me think I was wrong to emphasize demos so much before. But are these just outliers? I used to think of startup ideas. At YC we call these made-up or sitcom startup ideas.

Hackers are unruly. But after I'd been there a few months in, they probably didn't. Good programmers often want to show that all the founders are equal partners.13 However, even that is an interesting prospect. Fred.14 Many investors explicitly use that as a test, reasoning correctly that if you wanted to hear. After all, you're not saying much.15

And getting rejected will put you in a slightly awkward position, because as long as no one is forced to use it. If you can think instead That's an interesting idea, you can increase how much you spend. The search engines that preceded them shied away from the most radical implications of what was said to them, not something you face and read to an audience that's mostly non-technical. It would be a good thing for investors that this is the divisor.16 Getting people to take less salary for a while, or increase revenues. And it would get easier over time, because the more startups you had in town, the less likely it is to establish a first-rate university in a place where rich people want to live.17 Agreeing tends to motivate people less than disagreeing.18 In 1995 I started a company to put art galleries online.19

You have to be a rule with them that everything has to start with a simple prototype, then add features, but at least they probably really do want whatever they're asking for. This strategy will work best with the best investors are much smarter than the rest, and the big bang method.20 Microsoft, Yahoo, Google. A and still has it today. The games played by intellectuals are leaking into the real world doesn't work that way. You couldn't get from your bed to the front door if you stopped to question everything. So be honest with yourself about the sort of person who can have organic startup ideas.

Notes

This is one resource patent trolls need: lawyers. Some would say that YC's most successful ones. Mitch Kapor, is he going to visit 20 different communities regularly.

Emmett Shear, and degenerate from words to their stems, but in fact had its own. But on the x company, you may have been truer to the prevalence of systems of seniority.

Many people feel good. How did individuals accumulate large fortunes in an urban context, issues basically means things we're going to drunken parties. You're not seeing fragmentation unless you see people breaking off to both write the sort of dress rehearsal for the government.

There are a hundred years or so you can remove them from leaving to start a startup. At the time it still seems to have a connection with Aristotle, but rather by, say, recursion, and it doesn't cost anything. They can't estimate your minimum capital needs that precisely.

Some urban renewal experts took a back-office manager written mostly in less nerdy fields like finance and media. It seems justifiable to use an OS that doesn't seem an impossible hope. Another tip: If you walk into a fancy restaurant in San Francisco, LA, Boston, and b when she's nervous, she doesn't like getting attention in the general manager of a correct program. If someone just sold a nice-looking man with a walrus mustache and a company selling soybean oil or mining equipment, such a dangerous mistake to do better.

The state of technology isn't simply a function of their pitch.

Scribes in ancient philosophy may be enough to absorb that. I suspect five hundred would be far from the DMV. There is a matter of outliers, and would probably be interrupted every fifteen minutes with little loss of personality for the future.

And even more dangerous to Microsoft than Netscape was. People who know the actual server in order to test whether that initial impression holds up. We invest small amounts of other people's money.

There are some VCs who understood the vacation rental business, it's easy for small children pointed out by solving his own problems.

The story of creation in the rest of the river among the largest in the general sense of the most successful founders still get rich by buying politicians. There are a better education. Some translators use calm instead of blacklist. They don't know the combination of a cent per spam.

After a while to avoid using it, and the 4K of RAM was in this essay, but no more unlikely than it would grow as big as any successful startup? In fact it's our explicit goal don't usually do best to err on the way I know this is not that everyone's the same weight as any successful startup improves the world, and in some cases the process dragged on for months. The Mac number is a self fulfilling prophecy. 66.

There are some good ideas buried in Bubble thinking.

I don't think it's publication that makes it easier to make people use common sense when intepreting it. The state of technology isn't simply a function of revenues, and on the web. From the conference site, they're nice to you; you're too early for us!

If that worked, any YC partner wrote: After the war, federal tax receipts have stayed close to 18% of GDP were about the distinction between them. Spices are also the main effect of low quality though.

What he meant, I mean type I startups.

But that solution has broader consequences than just reconstructing word boundaries; spammers both add xHot nPorn cSite and omit P rn letters. You can't assume that the word content and tried for a startup, and Reddit is derived from Delicious/popular. Good news: users don't care what your body is telling you.

They don't know who invented something the mainstream media needs to learn to acknowledge it. If this happens because they're innumerate, or invent relativity. Obviously signalling risk is also a good chance that a shift in power from investors to act against their own company. Again, hard work is a new Lisp dialect called Arc that is not an efficient market in this essay I'm talking here about which is not so much in the body or header lines other than salaries that you wouldn't mind missing, false positives caused by filters will have to disclose the threat to potential investors and instead focus on growth instead of working.

The Chaotic World of Funny Car Chaos! Race weekend from a Promoter’s Point of View

For the past fifteen years, I have dedicated my life to the sport of drag racing as a photographer, race reporter, and participant. My wife and I spend every weekend from mid-January to early December at a drag race somewhere across this great country. In addition to serving as President of the Southwest Heritage Racing Association, which is the largest and most rapidly-growing independent drag racing series in the Southwest, I also find the task of hosting large, single events very intriguing. After five years of success organizing and promoting the annual Pro Mod vs Fuel Altered Showdown each summer in Texas, I decided to challenge myself on an even bigger event.

Funny Cars are without question the most entertaining vehicles to ever take the starting line at a drag strip. For decades, they have entertained spectators with their ill handling unpredictability and aggressive style. When funny car lays down a full track burnout, the hair on the back of your neck stands up. That’s what drag racing is all about. We needed to bring Funny Cars back to the main stage in the Southwest, and make it big. The challenge was clear, host a Funny Car race that appeals to both the racers and the spectators like nothing we’ve seen since the 1970’s and early 1980’s. Since that time, smaller eight car shows and two- or four-car match races were all fans and racers had. It was time for a legitimate, mass appealing, large, well-paying and Funny Car event. Thus, Funny Car Chaos was born.

Knowing the amount of Funny Cars not only in the mid-west but across the country, I was sure we could certainly attract sixteen cars to make the tow to North Star Dragway in Denton, Texas if we didn’t require them to fit a certain rules profile and we paid them decent money for their efforts. When I announced Funny Car Chaos in December 2016, I had no money or sponsors, just a date, a track owner who gave me a chance. Over the next six months, I spent tireless hours hunting sponsorships, and after lots of time on a calculator, I knew I had to get the payout announced to make these racers know this was for real. A group of local teams had confirmed interest, and after the announcement of a $25,000 payout, we subsequently attracted the attention of several out of town teams. My title sponsor and biggest supporter, Randy Ranew and the Red Line Shirt Club, played a huge role in getting me to this point.

Holy cow! Now I’ve got 25 cars pre-entered into this race and was only planning on qualifying 16. Back to the calculator, let’s figure out a way to let all these teams who are willing to dedicate their time and money have a chance at a first round and be part of the show. The format was finalized with an elite eight top qualifiers making up the ‘A’ field and remaining nine through twenty four qualifiers slotted into the ‘B’ field of sixteen, qualifying twenty four cars total. With the format and payout set, 25 teams pre-entered and sponsorship commitments higher than I’ve ever raised before, it was time to promote, promote, promote. Could term “Funny Car” be enough to attract people to the event? Who doesn’t love a Funny Car, right?

Fast forward to the week of the race, and my cell phone hasn’t stopped ringing. I literally carried battery packs in my pocket to keep my phone from dying. Teams started arriving on Tuesday. What? You only see things like that at the U.S. Nationals or the March Meet. A dreary forecast for Thursday and Friday had me nervous, as we had test sessions, pre-parties, and lots of action scheduled. Thankfully, we were blessed with a dry Thursday night, and the pre-party went off better than expected. The local restaurant had to quit taking food orders at one point because the kitchen was so backed up. After talking with the owner, more alcohol sales were recorded through the register since the opening of the venue in 2013.

We were off and running at 6:00 am Friday morning, and I was starting to feel the anxiety. After all the hype, I had better deliver the goods with the next two days of drag racing. A steady drizzle hung over North Star Dragway until just before noon,then the track staff took charge to dry the quickest eighth mile in Texas for a 2:00 test session for Funny Cars.

With 22 tech cards turned in at the drivers meeting, all the racers knew they were “in the show”, however, three of the pre-entered teams were unable to make it. We had it all at Funny Car Chaos: nitro cars, alcohol cars, new body styles and old body styles, heck, we even had a ‘topless’ Funny Car. Several teams took advantage of the open rule book and made changes to their engine combinations, choosing to bolt on bigger fuel pumps, more powerful magnetos, etc. It was like Funny Cars on steroids!

With such a wide assortment of cars, some who run regularly and some relative novices, I knew we’d face some losses as parts failure took its toll. Testing went well, Mark Sanders ripped off a stout 3.72 elapsed time, which proved the track was ready to hold whatever these cars wanted to throw at. At 8 p.m., we fired the first pair of floppers to officially kick off Funny Car Chaos qualifying. This was the roughest, longest, most challenging session of twelve pairs of cars I’d experienced in my life. Midway through the session, the most iconic Funny Car to ever call Texas home, the “Blue Max”, came to the line with driver Ronny Young lined up against Marc White in the “Crop Duster” from Illinois. At that moment, I quit breathing for several seconds.

At first, it was with disbelief that I was hosting a drag race that included “Blue Max” which is, in my opinion, the most badass Funny Car to ever see the face of the Earth. But after a 3.82 at 192 mph pass from Young, I heard a series of throttle whacks at the top end that was far from normal, followed by the ambulance lights coming to life as the safety crew rolling onto the track.

It’s hard to describe the feeling you get as an event promoter when something scary happens to one of your racers, one of your friends. I had no choice but to get down to the top end and see what had happened. Upon arrival, the first thing I saw was Ronny Young standing in the sand trap with a look of disgust on his face. Thankfully, Young was completely uninjured, but the famed flopper suffered race-ending damage, possibly with a bent frame. Young went into the sand trap after a late chute deployment kept the car from making the final turn off. I shook his hand and expressed my relief that he was alive and well, so thankful for that opportunity. After repairing the net system, we were back in action.

Two pairs later, the dreadful, full-track oil down showed it’s ugly face. So, the staff was back at it, with mops and dry sweep and starter David Strickland manning the scrubber machine. After an hour of delay removing the “Blue Max” from the sand trap and repairing the catch net, another hour of oil clean up ensued, flat lining the momentum we had built to this point. By this time, I already had cars in the lanes ready for their second qualifying pass, but still had six cars left to run in the first qualifying session. Schedule? Throw that out the window. After discussions with the remaining drivers and teams ready for their second shot, we agreed to run as long as the track stayed safe. Thankfully, the evening dew we commonly get never materialized, and those die-hard fans stuck around for one of the most impressive Funny Car runs I’ve ever witnessed.

John Hale lit up his Guy Tipton-tuned “One Bad Texan” to kick off the second qualifying session with a burnout that literally kept the rear tires blazing to the mile per hour cone at the eighth mile. The crowd went wild! Hale finally came to a stop well past the scoreboards, then backed up and brought it to the line. The green light dropped and Hale blasted off the starting line like a rocket, flames dancing from the pipes. The scoreboards lit up with a 3.77 at 194 mph to qualify number two. Wow, what an epic pass! Hale qualified behind Mark Sanders’ 3.68 at 205 mph which led the sheets with one more session remaining on Saturday afternoon.

With Friday a thing of the past, the task at hand was to rebound with a stellar effort on Saturday and that goal was met with flying colors. Plenty of sunshine, temperatures in the high 80s, the front gate flowing with cars and the parking lot filling up, things were looking good. I always try to make sure the events I host provide continuous and flowing entertainment. An arsenal of between round action filled the pits past the normal parking area and almost to the first turn off at the top end of the track. We crammed 125+ trailers in the facility made up of match racers and exhibition machines like K.C. Jones, who was pulling double duty driving both the “Crazy Train” wheelstander and “Chattanooga Choo-Choo” jet dragster. Howard Farris was in the house determined to break the 3.53 track record with the “War Wagon” AA/Fuel Altered. John Robinson had his turbo diesel powered dragster on hand among many others. Capping off the show, the Dirty South Gasser series brought back the old school vibe with more than thirty five participants lined up for the Beat The Heat World Finals held on Saturday.

All remaining Funny Cars had a solid spot in the field, so I expected maybe just a few to come up for the final qualifying session. To my amazement, almost every car found a spot in the lanes and were eager to take the track as the stands were literally filled to capacity and spectators were four and five deep on the fence past the scoreboards. Let’s fire ‘em up!

The final qualifier went off with just one oil delay, and it was now time to compose a ladder. With the assistance of my loyal announcer David Rattan, we put together the field and made copies, then I hopped on the scooter to deliver a ladder to each team. The original plan was to host a pre-race parade of cars, but to make up time, I hesitantly scrapped that part of the show, preferring to make up lost ground on my timeline and have this event completed at a reasonable hour. As a promoter, photographer, spectator, whatever, nothing gets under my skin worse than racing at one or two in the morning in front of empty bleachers on a subpar racing surface. So with the parade scrapped, the call went out for the first round of Funny Cars to head to the lanes, it was time to pair them up and let them ride.

Announcing is a crucial part of hosting any form of entertainment, but especially drag racing. Thankfully, I’ve got a dedicated team behind me including David Rattan in the announcer booth and my long time staging lane director Justin Haas, who also handles the lanes for the SHRA nostalgia series. With this team combined with the hard working staff at North Star Dragway, we were ready to go as Justin sent the first pair to the water box.

The first round saw several upsets, especially in the ‘A’ eliminator as John Hale and Marc White suffered first round losses after qualifying in the top half. Watching from between the lanes on the starting line, directly behind the starter, let me tell you, the nitro fumes were thick and plentiful during the ‘A’ field. A lifelong nitro junkie, it just didn’t get any better than that! ‘B’ field contestants held their own with some great side-by-side racing as we cut the fields in half and teams returned to the pit area for servicing. K.C. Jones did his thing in the wheelie car and jet dragster, the Dirty South Gassers kept the front wheels up on their exhibition runs and rounds were underway in the Beat The Heat program. We had the ball rolling now.

Being the “guy in charge” means you are the one who deals with all the random stuff that happens. I’ve seen more than my fair share of unexpected issues, but thankfully only a few incidents were reported over the weekend. One young spectator whacked his head open on the bleachers running unsupervised between the frame work of the bleachers. An adult spectator took a rolled up t-shirt to the eye from a race team shooting t-shirts into the crowd with an air cannon, bad aim I guess. Those issues were easy to resolve. A few years ago at an event I promoted called “Match Race Madness” we had breaker boxes overloaded and on fire, the water well ran dry and we had to use cases of bottled water in the burnout box, we even lost power to one side of the track lighting system, so a couple bumps and bruises were easy to manage.

Before I knew it, we were into the finals; where did the time go? I felt as if we just held first round an hour ago, but it was now 11:30 p.m. and final round cars were in the lanes. Mark Sanders and Keith Jackson would square off in the ‘A’ feature while Andy Mears and Jordan Ballew were up in the ‘B’ field final. Wait, don’t forget to notify all the photographers and videographers of the fireworks show set for the conclusion of the final round. We had wired a system down the side of the track in both lanes, set to go boom as the ‘A’ field final round went through the finish line. Fireworks ready, media members notified, track clear, let’s crown some winners!

The ‘B’ field was up first with Mears and Ballew coming to life. Mears in a 1957 Chevy entry branded “Dragon Slayer” from Lubbock, Texas and Ballew rocking the 1969 Chevy Nova “Ballew Thunder” tuned by his father Russell. Both personal friends of mine, both great race teams, this one was going to be fun. The ambers dropped and they were off. Side-by-side they charged to the finish line, where Mears’ 4.76 at 144 mph narrowly defeated a 4.77 at 145 mph from Ballew in the closest drag race of the event (.021 margin of victory). Yes! A great side-by-side final round is always what you want to see.

The big boys were up next. Keith Jackson was a funny car racer I grew up watching as a kid on family vacations to Bandimere Speedway for the NHRA Mile High Nationals, his hometown race in his time running NHRA Funny Car. The disbelief that this man was now racing in an event I was hosting in Texas was shocking enough, but to think he might win the event was simply thrilling. Mark Sanders was the last team to pre-enter, notifying me just the week before that they had planned on attending. Sanders had shown no mercy thus far: top qualifier, low elapsed time, top speed, but a thrash in the pits had ensued when the rods decided to exit the block on the “Mr. Explosive” 1970 Ford Mustang entry. Son and crew chief Jake Sanders led the team into battle with a new bullet between the frame rails as both cars pulled into the waterbox. Crew members hung the starters on the front snout of their blown nitro powerplants and gave the nod, we’re ready, crank em’ up.

Nitro fumes pumped from the pipes high into the sky as the bodies dropped and burnouts were underway. This race was a toss-up. Sanders had been quicker, but the newly installed engine always causes a bit of uncertainty. On the line, crew chiefs made their final adjustments and sent their drivers into the beams. That wicked sound when fuel cars put it on the high side (engage the second fuel pump) will straighten the hair on a nitro junkie’s arms, mine for sure. A flash of amber and the green lights were on as Jackson took a slight starting line advantage. They looked, from my vantage point, glued together at half-track, and I could see Jackson drifting towards the guardrail while Sanders also had his hands full keeping his hot rod in the groove. Both were out of the throttle right before the finish line as Sanders’ win light came on with a 4.12 at 141 mph to Jackson’s close 4.25 at 154 mph, both surprisingly off pace, but with the win going to Sanders and company as the team celebrated on the starting line after their thrash to make the call for the finals paid off.

The fireworks went off- well, most of them did- as the fans started making their way towards the exit and preparation for the winners circle festivities began. Typically I’m the guy lining up the cars in the winner’s circle area, making sure every person in the group is visible to the camera lens, but this time I was the guy handing out the cash, jumbo size check, and custom-designed trophy. For racers to come up and tell you this is the most fun they’ve had in years means a lot. Thankfully, I got that from a lot of the participants and sharing the winners circle photo with these teams was a special feeling I’ll never forget. Everyone was going home safe, the racing was very exciting, the stands were packed, and that’s a wrap, Funny Car Chaos was in the books.

I’d like to personally thank North Star Dragway owner Gene Nicodemus for believing in my vision and giving me the opportunity to make reality of this crazy idea. Secondly, my wife Tera, who was the only person who kept my sanity in this process and poured hours of help into making it happen. Finally, the sponsors and racers, without their involvement no drag race was possible and it is with their support that brought this event together. Thank you all.

A weekend filled with unknowns, triple checking of every piece of the puzzle, answering countless questions, making sure everyone was in place, ensuring your racers and spectators were having fun, it was all worth every second. From back up girls to header flames, the Funny Car teams put on a spectacular show, and my sincere thanks goes out to each team who trusted me in this effort. Not a single driver expressed any issue with the event, and to my surprise, every single team made sure to tell me before they headed home, “I’ll be at the next one!”

I guess that leaves me no choice. Let’s do it again! A few months prior to the inaugural Funny Car Chaos, I had already reached out to a few tracks in hopes of securing a second date for 2018, set for some time in the spring, while keeping a permanent home at North Star Dragway for a fall race. Amarillo Dragway is where I’ve chosen to take Funny Car Chaos 2 and we’re gearing up for a bigger and better edition of this flip top frenzy at one of the most historic drag racing facilities in the country. So look forward to more folks, as we charge ahead full throttle into next year where we will again pack the pits with Funny Cars, it will be, Funny Car Chaos!

10 Lies The Media Is Telling You About Nutrition

When you look at the TV, internet, or read the papers you are always going to find articles somewhere about nutrition. The media is saturated with ever changing opinions on what is best for your health and beauty. This is not really surprising because most of the media relies in one form or another on sponsorship or advertising. Many articles you read in the media about nutrition are placed there to support the advertiser’s money.

Nutrition is a competitive market like all the others and is full of supposed evidence that you must stop eating one product in favour of eating another. So how can you decide what is fact and what is fiction?

We take a look at ten myths that are doing the rounds of the nutrition industry to help you decide for yourself. What is actually good for you and what is just really – snake oil?

1. Natural Foods Are Better Than Supplements To Get Healthy Nutrition

If you look in your shopping basket you will often see the word ‘natural’ in big letters somewhere on the packaging, but when do you see the word synthetic used with such enthusiasm? How often have you heard the claim that whole foods are better than supplements?

Some compounds are more effective when taken as a supplement due to their bioavailability. This just means the proportion of any substance when introduced into the body that is able to have an active effect.

One example of this is with vitamins because certain vitamins like folic acid (B9) have far more bioavailability than B9 naturally present in foods. A vegan diet that is very low in B12 would be impossible to maintain, so a supplement is the only practical source.

It is estimated that more than a third of Americans take a multivitamin every day citing soil depletion, chemical additions, and maintaining a good vitamin balance on low carb or low fat diets. However in truth there is no evidence that taking multivitamins will make you live any longer.

If you look at the labels on foods that you purchase you will find that many already have nutrients added. Milk often has vitamin D added to it as do many big brand cereals so you may be eating as many supplements as you need.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

You don’t need to add vitamin supplements to your diet unless you are on a defined diet. This is because many foods have vitamins added to them at source. On the other hand, some foods just can’t provide the bioavailability to be able to release enough of the right nutrients. The jury is still out on this because although taking supplements is a more efficient way to get certain vitamins and micronutrients into your system, a lot of them are already added to commercial foods.

2. You Should Eat Many Small Meals Throughout The Day

By eating many times a day your digestion slightly raises the metabolism. So the idea seems to be that if you eat a lot of small meals during the day, your metabolism increases and you burn off more calories. This is another media myth and the “keep metabolism high” slogan is just that, a slogan.

Although your metabolism rises slightly when you digest your food, it is the amount of food eaten that determines the amount of energy used because a bigger meal takes longer to digest than a smaller meal, so you gain no advantage by having more meals. In fact one meal may raise the metabolism more than many smaller meals and may even create an extra calorie burn.

We are not well adapted to be in a constantly topped up food state in the way we are today. Our ancestors would have sometimes had to go without food from time to time and they survived. Lastly, who really has the time to graze all day because it is not practical.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

There is no evidence that constantly eating small meals is beneficial to your health. If anything is true it is probably the opposite. Sometimes it may be better to do without a meal to improve digestion as our early ancestors would have done.

3. A Gluten Free Diet Will Make You Healthier

The media supports gluten free diets as a healthier option claiming that gluten causes a lack of energy. The supermarket shelves have an ever growing range of gluten free products, so it’s not really surprising that it has become a fashionable idea. Gluten is a nutrient found in crops like wheat, rye, and barley and people who have Celiac disease cannot absorb this useful nutrient.

The only way that removing gluten from your diet will make you healthier is if you have Celiac disease. Celiac disease is a condition where your body cannot digest gluten, and this build up of undigested material eventually causes damage to the small intestine.

Gluten intolerance, may sometimes be diagnosed if you notice fatigue regularly occurs after consuming gluten, but this only happens if Celiac disease has been checked for. A gluten test for Celiac disease is very simple and just requires a simple blood test, so if you have concerns about gluten contact your health professional.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

Unless you have Celiac disease or a specific intolerance, removing gluten from your diet will not make you healthier and will just take out useful nutrients like breads and grains from your diet. If you are worried about gluten ask your doctor for a blood test. If you don’t have a medical reason for following a gluten-free diet, there’s probably no benefit.

4. All Fats Are Bad

“Eat fat and get fat” is the media myth associating the amount of fat you gain to the amount you eat. Eating fats is actually necessary for our body’s health so removing all fats from your diet can be dangerous.

Fats can be broken down into three types. These are; Trans fats, Saturated fats, and other fats. Trans fats are hydrogenated fats, a process that causes the fat to thicken through hardening. It is used for frying and can be purchased in blocks. This type of fat doesn’t break down in the body.

If your diet is too high in trans fats, you run the risk of increasing the levels of cholesterol in your blood. Trans fats are bad for you in large quantities and can cause conditions such as heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes.

Many food companies are now removing trans fats from their products, but the real problem we are left with in our food are the saturated fats. This is because we all eat too much of them, sometimes because they are added to our foods but also because meat and dairy produce are already high in them.

These fats can be significantly reduced by trimming skins from poultry. and cutting the fat of your meat before cooking. Try to avoid full fat dairy products like creams, butter, and hard cheeses and swap them for lower fat alternatives.

We need dietary fats in our food to provide us with essential body energy and to support cell growth. Fats will also help protect your organs, absorb nutrients, and help keep your body warm.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

A certain amount of fats in our diet is essential for our health, and as long as you try to avoid too many saturated and trans fats which raise cholesterol levels in the blood, you can lead a perfectly healthy life with fats in your diet. If you are in doubt about a food’s fat content, look at the product label for information.

5. Radiation From Microwaves Destroys Nutrients

Microwaves heat food the same way the sun heats your face, and this is known as radiation. Radiation simply refers to energy that travels in waves and spreads out as it goes. Microwaves are similar to the electromagnetic waves that provide the signal for TV and radio.

The microwave oven cooks food from heat that is generated inside the food and not from the microwaves themselves. Microwaving will not remove nutrients any more than any other form of cooking.

Carol Byrd-Bredbenner, professor of nutrition at Rutgers University, said. “It’s the heat and the amount of time you’re cooking that affect nutrient losses, not the cooking method.” “The longer and hotter you cook a food, the more you’ll lose certain heat and water-sensitive nutrients, especially vitamin C and thiamine (a B vitamin).”

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

Microwave cooking is really no different from any other cooking method that applies heat to food. You will only lose nutrients if you overcook your food in exactly the same way if you overcook it by any other method.

6. “Detox. It’s Important To Periodically Fast And Cleanse Toxins From Your Body”

The media constantly promotes a belief that we intake so much junk food, alcohol, caffeine, sugar, and general pollution that we need a break from the overload of toxins we ingest.

A detox diet means you stop eating for a period of time, which can be anywhere from a day to a dangerous amount of time. If you go without food for long enough you will not only lose significant amounts of vital nutrients, but you will actually cause serious damage to your body. Taking a detox supplement that contains laxatives makes this even worse and can lead to dehydration. If you actually lose weight by this method then it will surely come back as soon as you start eating again.

There is no evidence that not eating (or consuming only juice) for any period of time makes the body remove toxins any better than when it’s left to its own job.

The liver, kidneys, skin, digestive system, and lungs, as well as enzymes in our cells all work hard to break down and eliminate toxins and waste products. Cutting back on food can lead to a nutrient deficiency that will work against your body’s ability to remove toxins from your body, and may actually help to increase toxic overload.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

The body already has a fantastic system to breakdown toxins and eliminate the waste. Detoxing diets and products can remove essential nutrients that enable the liver, kidneys, skin, and digestive system to do its job properly. If you want to cut down on toxin intake swap your diet for homemade meals made from fish, lean meats, fruit, vegetables, and whole-grains. Cutting down on alcohol, smoking, and high sugars will help this process.

7. Eggs Are Bad For You!

The media loves to promote and demote food safety and your health, and eggs are one of the victims of this publicity. Eggs are currently in the firing line because they contain a high proportion of cholesterol. It is true that having high cholesterol levels in our blood increases our risk of heart disease, but it has been proved that cholesterol in eggs does not raise the cholesterol level in the blood.

Eggs contain protein, vitamin D, vitamin A, vitamin B2, vitamin B12, folate, and iodine and these are all important nutrients for our health and maintenance.

If there are problems with eggs, these are usually due to cooking them improperly or poor storage. Raw eggs can contain salmonella and must be cooked properly before consumption. You need to take care in removing the shells and discard them before preparing other foods, as the discarded shells can contain bacteria.

Eggs have a 28 day shelf life from lay that should be printed on the container. An old trick to test their age is to put the egg in a deep bowl of cold water. If the egg floats it’s gone off and need to be discarded immediately. If it lifts to one side it needs to be eaten soon or discarded.

Some foods like mayonnaise contain raw eggs, and should be avoided if you are concerned about this. Store bought mayonnaise uses pasteurised eggs which are high heat treated to kill dangerous bacteria.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

Eggs are good foods wrongly accused of being unhealthy, and they are a fantastic source of many useful nutrients. The main problems people suffer from eating eggs are in the storage and the cooking. Unless your heath professional has told you to stop eating eggs in your diet, you are good to go. Just be careful how you prepare and cook your eggs.

8. You Need To Follow An Intense Exercise Regime.

If you don’t already have a moderate fitness plan don’t even consider this one! Taking up an intensive exercise regime can be a quick way to hurt yourself if you are inexperienced, and is dangerous if you are inactive. However exercise is important. You don’t need an intensive exercise regime to be healthy, but you do need to be active because this is a fundamental part of our body’s make up.

If you have a desk job, fitting in exercise can be hard and sometimes the ending of the working day can feel similar to waiting for the last 5 minutes of a school term. We are built to move and this feeling is often attached to getting some much needed exercise.

Try walking to and from work if you can, or making simple changes such as taking the bus and getting off a stop earlier. Just find ways to get more movement into your life. Hobbies like gardening or simple physical home cleaning can be fantastic exercise.

Of course if you are into physically taxing exercise like running or cycling, you probably already have this level of fitness. But don’t forget walking can be great way to get some air into those lungs, and allow you to build up your exercise levels slowly.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

Just taking exercise regularly is good for your health. Try to fit exercise into your life by doing what you enjoy, because to go from little movement to an intensive exercise regime could be dangerous. Of course if your hobby already happens to be marathon running, then you are probably good to go.

9. Carbs Should Be Your Biggest Source Of Calories

One trend in weight loss is for a high carbohydrate and low fat diet. Essentially true for dieting, because there are nearly half the calories in carbs as there are in fats. However not all carbs are the same.

Currently it is thought that a diet should contain 50 – 60% carbohydrates. This would mean eating a diet that contained lots of grains and pulses, and fewer fatty foods like meat and eggs. This type of diet may work for people who are already at their correct BMI, but for anyone who has a metabolic or diabetes condition this would be potentially very dangerous.

While whole grains like oats and brown rice are useful, you have to watch out for added extras like toppings and sauces which are often added to high carb foods. Sugar for example is added to bread when there is absolutely no need.

It is good to have whole grain carbs in your food, but a diet that is higher in unsaturated fats is better for healthy maintenance of your body than a high carb and low fat diet.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

The high carb low fat diet is not the best way to lose weight. Fats play an important role in our health and studies have shown it is better to have a high fat low carb diet. If you stick to the lower fat options and avoid saturated and trans fats as much as possible, then you will feel healthier and still be able to lose weight.

10. High Omega-6 Seed And Vegetable Oils Are Good For You

Throughout our evolution, we have never had so many Omega – 6 fats in our diet as we do now. Research looking into omega 6 fatty acids instead of polyunsaturated fats shows there may be an increase risk to the cardiovascular system because of this reason alone.

We need Omega-3 in our diet because not only are they an anti inflammatory, they also lower the risk of contracting inflammatory diseases. Omega 6 and Omega 3 are all part of the same chemical family, and you can’t get one without the other. The problems arise when the balance between Omega 6 and Omega 3 is wrong within your body. The level is correct when the Omega 3s are slightly in the majority.

The biggest sources of Omega-6 in the modern diet are processed seed and vegetable oils like soybean, corn, and sunflower oils. They are not always the healthy option.

WATCHDOG TRUTH:

You need Omega 3 and 6 to maintain a healthy diet, but you need them in the right proportions. In the case of the Omegas you would be better off choosing a supplement like cod liver oil, rather than the over processed seed and vegetable oils available in the supermarket shelves.

Encouraging an Under-Achieving Child

Every child has their own very unique temperament and personality. You can have one child who is anxious to always succeed and another who seems like they can’t be bothered at all.  Generally, the amount of motivation a child has can simply be put down to their temperament.

 The Parent Institute identifies characteristics of children who are motivated as being more likely to:

· Choose tasks that are challenging.

· Begin tasks without having to be prodded.

· Show serious effort and concentration.

· Have a positive attitude toward learning and schoolwork.

· Use coping strategies to get through the rough times.

· Stick with tasks until successful completion.

 While children who lack motivation are likely to:

·  Choose work that is inappropriately easy.

·  Need lots of prodding to get started.

·  Put in minimal effort.

·  Show a negative or apathetic attitude about learning and schoolwork.

·  Give up quickly when the going gets rough.

·  Leave many tasks unfinished.

 It is easy to see why children who display more motivated characteristics will be more successful in both school and life. It is therefore understandable that having a child who seems to not really want to put in much effort can be frustrating and cause for concern.

Keep in mind that very few children are naturally lazy. There is almost always a reason for such an uninterested attitude.

Instead of despairing it will be far more constructive to better understand your child’s learning style.  

This means you can be more effective in communicating with your child and can have both more realistic expectations and strategies to encourage them to give everything their best shot.  

Dr. Caron B. Goode has identified four main styles, their traits and ways to approach each learning style.  Although these are easier to identify in older children, it is still possible to see where a younger child will fall, especially if they are strongly one style rather than a combination.

Style

Characteristics

Approach

Cognitive

Analytical, orderly, organised,  logical persistent, can be stubborn.

Set clear goals and ways in which to achieve them. Set deadlines with a reasonable amount of time to do a good and complete job.

Behavioural

Independent, competitive, results orientated, problem-solver, can be impatient and want to do things their own way.

Just be clear what is expected and have an agreed timeline. Leave them room to work in their way without too much control.

Affective

Passionate, creative, sociable,  intuitive, can be undisciplined and find time management very hard.

Break large goals down into small achievable goals. Check in regularly to ensure they are able to stay on track. Give lots of breaks and praise.

Interpersonal

Dependable, calm, cooperative,  practical, patient, can be introverted and wants to please you and teachers.

Be very thorough in your explanation of expectations, work closely with them to ensure they understand and agree that they can do it.

We are models for our children. This is true even from a young age. There are a few ways in which we can show our child how important we think it is for them to try their very best at everything and that we are there as a support for them.

 1.      Make time to develop a relationship with your child’s teacher. This is so you can keep up to date with what is happening in school. Nowadays with email, this is much easier for both busy teachers and working parents. Share information about your child and what your idea of success is.

 2.      Support them in their assignments and homework. This doesn’t mean doing it for them but do make sure they have a suitable space to work, away from distractions. Limit time spent on electronic devices and watching TV.  These are passive activities that do nothing to develop attention spans.

 3.      Make time to go to parent chats and special events at the school. If you can volunteer as a parent helper this can be an enormous motivator for a child.  

 4.      Be positive working hard. Always make an effort to notice hard work and praise that effort, not only in your child but also those around them.  Talk about the cause and effect of hard work.  Daddy is working hard so we can save up and go on a big holiday.  Grandma is working hard to make your favourite meal.

Children who understand that learning is not restricted the classroom or to results are more motivated. By understanding your child’s learning style and interests you can help them extend their learning by engaging them in activities they are interested in.

Always, and this is key, celebrate effort over results.  If your child has a tendency to not feel confident or is a perfectionist they may very well shy away from doing something if they feel the end result is not what they wanted, or what you wanted. By celebrating effort you are encouraging them to try hard and showing them that what really matters is that we put in our very best effort in what we do.

Standfirst: Strategies to keep your child interested in learning:

 ·         Be enthusiastic and involved

Show an interest in your child’s school day. Ask questions about their subjects, friends, and activities. Get excited about what they are doing, share stories about your school days and what were the highlights for you. If your child has a problem or concern about a teacher or subject, find out more and help them come up with solutions. Show them that obstacles that stand in the way of enjoying school can be overcome with perseverance and support.

 ·         Get involved in activities

Sometimes children will lose motivation because they haven’t yet found an area of learning they are passionate about. Look for extracurricular activities that excite your child. Sometimes finding that activity, be it soccer, music, chess or ballet, may be all it takes to get your child bouncing out of bed and ready for the day!

 ·         Celebrate success and effort

Everyone needs to be motivated!  Keep showing your child that you are proud of his or her achievements. Remember that this is NOT about results. The school system focuses on results so it is important that you focus on effort.

 ·         Share the benefits of education

If your child is swamped with algebra, spelling tests and chemistry you may wonder what on earth this is all for and how does it relate to real life? Keep explaining to your child the benefits of a good education. Talk about how it will affect their future. Ask your child what they want to be when they grow up and discuss the educational path to get there. I personally have been trying to explain to my 9-year-old son that the likelihood of him being able to focus only on soccer and still be able to drive a Ferrari when he gets his license is microscopically small! I need to keep working on that one.

 ·         Set realistic goals for your child

Very few people are motivated by overwhelming pressure. If your child feels your expectations are not possible to achieve, like a certain grade or standard, then he may not even want to try at all, especially if he has failed to meet expectations in the past. What is important is that your child keeps trying his hardest and keeps trying to improve his personal best.  

 ·         Extend your child’s interests

If you are aware that your child has a specific area of interest then try to find ways to expand that outside of the classroom. Museums, theatre, air shows and many other exhibitions can all be ways to expand your child’s interest. Keep in mind that schools are only responsible for a narrow and limited number of interests, it caters for the masses. You can expand and extend your child’s interest in learning and curiosity by offering him many more experiences that appeal to him.

 Q. I need to bite back sarcastic words when my son says that it is okay to work in a fast food restaurant. How can I encourage him positively to perform better?

A. Most young children do not have a clear, or realistic idea, of what they want to be when they grow up.  It is great if your child has a concept of working and earning money and you should acknowledge that.  Ask him what he will enjoy working in the fast food restaurant and talk about what will make it a very hard job, like the long hours, standing all the time and cleaning up after everyone. If you are sarcastic about the job what is likely to happen is your child could begin to look down on those that do work in fast food restaurants, which is not what I imagine you would want.

Q. My daughter won’t pick up her toys despite constant reminders.  Will she understand the direct cause and effect if I withhold the toy from her next time?

A. Every parent has threatened to either withhold toys or, in my case, throw out the toys if they are left lying around. In hindsight what may be more effective is to start off by asking your child to help you put away the toys, to do it together. if your child is over 5 and really is not helping to put away toys after numerous reminders then withholding the toy may be effective.

 Q. Whenever we play a game if my son feels like he is not going to win he will want to give up and stop playing. What can I do?

A. This is a common phase for many children and one of the reasons it is so important to play games! For some children, it is much harder to handle not winning and some children are much quicker to give up. Play shorter games and encourage your child to play to the end, emphasizing the importance of finishing what you start as well as being fair to the other players. Play games where luck can change quickly so there always hope it can turn around, like ‘snakes and ladders,’ for example.

At Chiltern House Thomson, there is no such thing as an under-achieving child, only a child whose talents have yet to be discovered and nurtured and would require more time to be developed under the guidance of a teacher.

Getting Older Is Not About Eating Less, It Is About Enough Nutrition

I have been helping PEOPLE FIND their best health for a while. Nutrition for the middle age and above is eating to feel good, and avoid genetic diseases, and definitely keep the belly fat to a minimum. Food that works for one does not work for another.

Bo, my friend, is getting complaints about not eating the meals that are being fixed for him. He is a Blood Type B, and has found out that by eliminating chicken from his diet, he has lessened his chronic fatigue.  It is challenging to do this eating plan, because there is so much pressure from his peers. He found, it is best to keep quiet and go and find food that is "right" for him. It is also a challenge, as it is amazing how many products have ingredients in them that are not "good" for him.  This is why I heartily recommend whole food. It is much easier to put a meal together this way. Bo is feeling better and his overall health is improved, his arthritis is greatly improved, and CHRONIC FATIGUE is a thing of the past. Sallie is my friend from college, who graduated as a Medical Technologist with me. She first heard about the "Eat for Your Blood-Type Diet" and was skeptical. I gave her the book, and she said nothing grabbed her attention. She gave the book away.  Then in 2009 her daughter-in-law gave her another book. She had undergone allergy testing, and wheat, corn, and peanuts came up positive on the test. She was amazed when she looked under Type B in the book that wheat, corn, and peanuts were on the AVOID list.  These for, Blood Type B, are especially responsible for weight gain, and are inhibitors of an efficient metabolism. She had to stop and think about her diet, and how she felt at 58.  She found it interesting that she had always disliked tomatoes and beans, both on the avoid list. (There are beneficial, kidney, navy and lima beans for Blood Type B.) I personally, have some kind of beans EVERY DAY. She had been on a gluten-free DIET for about 2 years, and hadn't felt many changes, except her GI tract seemed to be better. The same wheat, corn, and peanuts also cause hypoglycemia in Blood Type B. She has had trouble with hypoglycemia all her life.  She decided to first cut out the wheat, corn, and peanuts. She still eats yogurt, which had previously, made her hypoglycemic, and made sure she found brands with NO corn syrup. (in my 8 keys to basic health which have been expanded to 10, I recommend, that no one eat high fructose corn syrup).  Within a couple of months, she noticed she wasn't hypoglycemic. She would get hungry, and not get the awful symptoms of hypoglycemia. She lost 5 pounds without trying, and was suddenly IMPRESSED! Since she has been diligent about avoiding foods that cause hypoglycemia and weight gain. She also stays clear of foods on the avoid lists. She slowly added in the highly beneficial foods to her DIET, and also now eats non-processed foods at all meals.  She is eating more vegetables, which is hard for her. It takes time and effort to fix something we have not grown up with, so we can eat it. She now eats nuts and fruits too. As a Blood Type B she is challenged, finding some meats, and she now eats lamb and fish plus beef, buffalo, and turkey. She still makes chicken for her family even though it is an avoid. I assume she doesn't eat any. The hardest and most challenging part of the diet is eliminating wheat and corn. She thought gluten-free was a challenge, and wheat, and/or corn are in everything. Gluten-free products usually contain corn flour or corn starch. She just found out that the gluten-free flour blend she was using contains gelatin, which is on her avoid list.  She would try a bakery gluten-free bread, and later discover it has corn flour or buckwheat in it. She has done a lot of internet searches to find usable products. She found an almond flour cookbook that is fabulous, and uses ingredients she can use. Almond flour can also be used to produce low glycemic goodies. Mexican, Italian and Chinese food contain wheat, corn, and tomatoes. Tomatoes are also on her avoid list. She says it makes eating out difficult. (Turkey would be most beneficial for her or buffalo burgers, and not too many restaurants serve this.) She will try to eat small amounts of wheat or other avoidance food maybe twice a month. She doesn't notice any new symptoms unless she eats way too much of a certain food. She ate a whole wheat waffle just to see what would happen. That night she woke up with a MIGRAINE HEADACHE. She hadn't had a headache in years. She has had blood work done regularly, and 6 months after starting the blood type DIET, she had more tests run. She was surprised to see that her A1C levels, glucose, and insulin levels declined dramatically. In the past they had steadily risen. She now had proof her metabolism was more efficient. Her intestinal tract improved even more, and her allergies have almost, disappeared. She has fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue with is common for Blood Type B. She is not sure the diet has/or will cure this, still she does feel better. (I hope she gets 100% better.)  She was taking arginine for her heart, since Blood Type B's need this to help get rid of their stress factors, and support their heart. She Googled fibromyalgia, and found that it may be caused, or be a result of too much nitric oxide. To get arginine naturally, turkey and spinach are good for starters. It is better to eat precursors and nutrients naturally. Pills can be "too much". Working to DECREASE STRESS is most important, as this can inflame our adrenals, and even make us hungrier. Knowing what foods benefit your system the most, can reduce one factor of stress. She sees a chiropractor and physical therapist, which have all contributed to better health. She takes extra magnesium, and is on a licorice SUPPLEMENT from a naturopath. Her next step should probably be adding in a memory herb, like ginseng or ginkgo, and do the Membrane Fluidizer Cocktail in the morning. Eating for your blood type is quite the journey. Her family thinks she is crazy. She will continue to follow this DIET. This diet fixed her hypoglycemia, and is all the proof she needs, to know, that it works. She looks forward to more research results and hopefully improved health. I, myself, am a Blood Type A. When I started this eating plan, my cholesterol was over 200 (about 225 and rising). I am concerned about heart disease, and type II diabetes, since high cholesterol and sugar, run in my mother's side, and fat bellies run in my father's side. I would "try" things too, in essence I would sabotage my eating plan with potato chips and white rice. Hence, this process is a journey, and healing your colon, so it recognizes good food, and can process it effectively. I eat totally the opposite of the BLOOD Type B's. Buffalo, Beef, Lamb are on my avoid list. Fish, (the cold water kind) are on my highly beneficial list, and Chicken and turkey are on my neutral list.  I actually eat a fish every day. I eat canned salmon, canned tuna or grilled salmon. on top of a large green (romaine) salad, with beans. (Blood Type A beans, are Black eyed Pea, Black Beans and Pinto Beans) I have managed to lower my cholesterol under 200 (187) and normalize my hdl's and ldl's (according to Sallie, out of balance ldl's especially L 3 and L 4 are what cause heart disease in women.) Very important to normalize those ldl's. I even fixed my constipation problem, and take care to keep things running smoothly. In my other articles I have described how eating too much fruit caused problems, and how finally something on my avoid list caught up with me. I have formatted my e-mails to give important health advice, and how I eat my fruits and vegetables to get some of each, and not cause DIGESTIVE issues.  I have since seen this way of combining protein and veggies, TWICE! When to eat fruits in Marilu Henner's book, and "The Truth about Abs". It works!! My family thinks I am crazy too. I KNOW I feel better, and have found what my genetics are missing, so I can correct it with alternative sources. I will never quit eating this way.

Guard Duty: A Development Retrospective - Devblog #3

Source Control Strategy

Howdy! This post is a bit of a techy one – seeing as I’m more an artist than programmer I’ll try to briefly summarize the process before handing over to Andy to explain the gritty details of it all.

Source control is super important when working in a team: it allows you to keep track of all the changes made to the game files and, if needed, revert back to previous versions of each individual file. It also means that more than one member of the team can be working on the project simultaneously. However, AGS has some of its own hurdles when it comes to that.

We use a service called BitBucket to host all of the core game files for Guard Duty, with the help of a front end client/application called SourceTree. SourceTree is an application that communicates with the BitBucket server, making it easy to keep track of all the changes to the files and allowing us to push updates after making them and pull updates from one another.

Due to the nature of how AGS works, there are occasional issues we run into with conflicting files, mainly the acsprset.spr and game.agf files, both rather large files that store global data not specific to individual locations, cutscenes etc. Andy is mostly able to fix these issues when they crop up with some sort of black magic wizardry, but it is something we have to be aware of when we’re both working on the game simultaneously.

On that note, I will hand over to Andy to go into a little more detail:

---

Getting Guard Duty working with BitBucket

I was really happy with how easy it was to set up, get the game files in and make a couple of test changes. The point of this post is to give you a quick crash course in source control (in particular Source Tree, which is the Windows/Mac client that works best with BitBucket).

So, without further ado:

Terminology

BitBucket

Online source control server where every version of Guard Duty is stored. Includes an automatic changelog and comparisons between the old and new versions of every file between every update.

SourceTree

The Windows/Mac client that lets you Pull things from BitBucket and Commit/Push things to there.

Repository

(Also known as Repo) Basically a project – a collection of files. Guard Duty is our Repository.

Clone

The act of making a copy of a Repository – either from the server to your machine or vice versa (you’ll probably only need to do this once, unless you want a copy on Windows and another on OSX).

Pull

The act of taking something from BitBucket. This could be a single file that you didn’t have before (eg because I added it) or an updated version of a file that you did have. This is how you stay up to date with changes in the Master copy.

Commit

Think of this as ‘Save game’. When you’ve made a change that you’re happy with, you Commit it. This takes your working copy and adds the changes to the version SourceTree knows about.

Generally, a Commit will be a single packet of changes for a specific thing. Let’s say you added backgrounds for the mountain pass and also added dialog for the Drunken Monk – these are separate things so should ideally be Committed separately. This makes it easier for others to see what’s happened and also easier to roll back specific changes without affecting anything else.

Push

Committing changes saves them to your SourceTree copy of the game files. When you’ve Committed one or more changes, you’ll see a number next to the Push button in SourceTree. This indicates how many Commits are waiting to be Pushed to the shared copy of the game – you need to push them before I’ll be able to see them.

In most cases you’ll probably want to Push immediately (there’s a checkbox in SourceTree that lets you do that when Committing) but sometimes you might want to wait until you’ve made a few Commits before Pushing (eg, you might want to add backgrounds, characters, objects and dialog for a certain area before any of it’s available to me).

Once Commits have been pushed they’ll b e uploaded to BitBucket and will then be available for everyone to Pull and see for themselves.

Add

Add a file you’ve created to the SourceTree copy (takes effect after you’ve Committed and Pushed the change).

Remove

Remove a file from your copy and the SourceTree copy (takes effect after you’ve Committed and Pushed the change).

Add/Remove

Adds any files you’re missing compared to the SourceTree copy, and Removes any files you’ve deleted locally from the SourceTree copy.

Branch

You might sometimes hear about making branches, or see them in BitBucket. This is a way of creating a duplicate of everything so you can safely work on experiments without affecting the Master copy (you can then merge them into Master afterwards if you want). Branching is especially useful when working on more than one distinct thing at a time, as it lets you concentrate on your own work without seeing all the changes going on everywhere else. Merging branches is normally straightforward, but it’s at the point of merging that you might get conflicts (where one change would overwrite another one), and you’ll have to choose which one to keep.

---

Those are the main terms you’ll come across regularly and the ones we use for Guard Duty.

Step-by-step

So now, here’s a step-by-step to joining BitBucket, getting SourceTree installed and a hooked-up copy of your game onto your machine.

1. Join BitBucket and create a team (let’s call it ‘yourteam’ for now). Then create a ‘yourgame’ repo (where ‘yourgame’ is the name of your project). If you make the project private, only people you invite will be able to access it.

Go to https://bitbucket.org/yourteam/yourgame

Get the rest of your team mates to sign up as well. Once they’re in you can invite them to join the team.

2. Install SourceTree

Go to http://www.sourcetreeapp.com/ and download the Windows/Mac version

Open the installer, follow the instructions...

Use these settings when the questions come up:

3. Pull the yourgame Repo into SourceTree

At https://bitbucket.org/yourteam/yourgame, go to Clone and choose Clone in SourceTree.

Your browser might ask you for permission to make an external protocol request – let it.

SourceTree should open at the Clone menu.

3-A.  Set the Destination Path to somewhere new on your machine (this is where your game project will be stored).

3-B. Create a bookmark called yourgame.

3-C. Hit Clone.

3-D. SourceTree will start downloading everything to the destination path. Now you’ll have a copy of all your game files that are hooked up to BitBucket. SourceTree will stay updated with the files and will show you what’s changed – it keeps itself refreshed. It’s best to keep SourceTree open all the time so you don’t have to wait to see review changes, Pull files or Commit and Push.

4. Merge your changes to the BitBucket version (This step will bring BitBucket up to date with your local copy, keeping the server copy in sync)

4-a.   Pretty simple – work on your game as you would normally.

4-b.  Be sure that you are updating the game files in the BitBucket folder we have just setup.

4-c.  Switch back to SourceTree and you should see a bunch of changes in the Working Copy Changes pane. Changed files will have a yellow marker instead of a green tick like this:

Green tick = unchanged, up to date with BitBucket Yellow dots = changed, not update in BitBucket until you Commit and Push Red stop sign = removed, but still in BitBucket until you Commit and Push Blue question mark = untracked (you should Add these)

4-d.  There might be lots of yellow dots, maybe even all of them are now yellow, but that’s okay for this time.

4-e.  If there are any blue question marks, highlight them and click the Add button. You’ll see a progress bar and then they’ll change to green ticks.

4-f.  Highlight something in the Working Copy Changes pane, press Ctrl+A to select all, and then click the Commit button. The Commit window will appear and you should see that all the files you modified or added have their boxes checked.

4-g.  Enter a message that makes it obvious what the Commit is for (eg ‘Bringing BitBucket repo up to date’) and hit Commit.

4-h.  Cue progress bar. It might take a little while depending on how big the committed files are.

4-i.  When that’s done, click the Push button (should now have a ‘1’ by it).

4-j.  When that’s done, revisit https://bitbucket.org/yourteam/yourgame to see your Commit in the Recent activity feed.

Et voila! Hopefully that went smoothly and you now know all you need to use BitBucket and SourceTree! Happy creating!
