Hardwick Old Hall, Derbyshire.

The stunning Elizabethan ruined Manor House built (1587-1596) that is now next to the even more stunning Elizabethan Hardwick Hall (1590-1597) which was started just three years after the Old Hall was started and completed within a year of its neighbour’s construction being completed.

Built for the extraordinary character, Bess of Hardwick, who was married four times, each time to a wealthier and more influential man, she had eight children, and a life worthy of a Hollywood block-buster.

She acquired wealth, power and influence at a time when this was unusual for a woman, and became an intimate friend of Queen Elizabeth I.

Hardwick Hall was built by the first ‘Architect’ Robert Smythson who had recently completed Wollaton Hall (1580-1588) in neighbouring Nottinghamshire and just before that Longleat House in Wiltshire (1568-1580), they all look very similar, Elizabethan prodigy houses, a move from the medieval hall construction of the past towards what we would begin to recognise as a house today, and Bess of Hardwick wanted her own version and had hers built next to her brand new medieval style hall that was forever then known as the Old Hall despite only being a year older.

Hardwick Old Hall has recently undergone a £1.3million conservation project and is managed by English Heritage in partnership with the neighbouring Hardwick Hall which is managed by the National Trust.

Members of both organisations are able to visit the entire Hardwick Estate.

"average greek sea voyage takes eight months" factoid actually just statistical error. sea voyages around greece are very short. Bad-luck Odysseus, who tripped over a monster every five feet, had to sail in loop de loops around greece to avoid various annoyed deities, and took eleven years to sail 565 miles, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

Burgh Castle Roman Fort, near Great Yarmouth, Norfolk.

The late 3rd century 'Saxon Shore' fort at Burgh Castle was built as part of the Roman network of coastal defences, and probably abandoned just over a hundred years later. Three of its imposing stone walls survive, almost to their original height, making this one of the best preserved Roman monuments in Britain. The fourth wall collapsed into the surrounding marshes a long time ago.

The land around the fort is a wildlife haven and offers panoramic views over Breydon Water.

It is managed by English Heritage.

MeraAaaAaaa!!! How dare you bring up having a fwb relationship with alpha!yandere!alhaitham and not expand more on that!! 😭😭😭 I need this. I NEED HIM SO BADLY!!! LAJDKSK

He's actually so frustrating!!! You could be in heat and he will act so unaffected. His restraint is so very commendable; he hardly spares you much reaction and will even cover his nose and say something along the lines of, "You should be more aware of your cycles so that you aren't an inconvenience to others." >:( it's really difficult to know what Alhaitham truly thinks because he's usually so straight-faced and serious, and he takes all the necessary precautions so he won't put himself in a troublesome position. But you beg him, tell him he smells good, cling to him out of biological imperative, and oohhh you're so lucky he's strong enough to resist, if just barely, otherwise he'd have you pinned against the nearest surface right this very moment.

The fwb relationship is established the day he helps you find relief in the midst of your heat. He's just helping you because it would be inconvenient and dangerous to leave you alone when other alphas (who may not have as much restraint or respect as Alhaitham) could be lurking nearby. And he's certain you woudn't want to come out of your heat marked and knocked up by some stranger. Truthfully, he doesn't want you to be marked and bred by someone you hardly know. If it were up to him, he'd rather do those things.

There's no getting rid of him after the fact. You can thank him all you want, buy him lunch out of gratitude, and insist you'll be more cautious going forwards, but Alhaitham is here to stay. He always throws things back in your face. Wasn't it you who begged him for this? Didn't you say you wanted him to be your alpha? He's only following your protocol. :) and, yes, perhaps you did say things like that, but the you who was in heat is vastly different from the you who is not in heat. He just won't drop the matter, reminding you that it's much more beneficial if you engage in mutually beneficial relations with someone you know and trust. What if he hadn't been there to help? What if it was another alpha, one with less restraint? What would you have done? You would have accepted anyone in that state, wouldn't you? And that's exactly the point Alhaitham's trying to make: it's dangerous if you're going to be so careless about your heats.

He does make a good argument. You know that, by biology's design, you will always be at a disadvantage when you're an omega in heat. You know Alhaitham's only looking out for you as a friend should. You know you should feel relieved he's even willing to go through all of the trouble to help you during future heats. And doesn't everyone wish to have a strong, sensible alpha care for them when they're at their most vulnerable?

Alhaitham's infatuation is subtle and so easily hidden. You'll never know he's harboring such an obsession. He only lets it slip when you're in heat because you're too omega-brained to really register the meaning behind his words, and everything he says and does is just music to your ears. He can get away with being possessive and maddeningly infatuated when you're in heat because that's when you're truly his. Though it's all loveless and the two of you are stuck as friends (nothing more, as you always claim) it's hard to ignore the chemistry beyond heat sex. Sometimes you'll spend mornings in bed with him, too lazy to get up, insisting on spending five more minutes in the comforts of his room. Sometimes he brings you breakfast. Sometimes he helps you to the bath. Sometimes it really feels like domestic bliss.

And eventually you'll spend so many heats with him that, the next time you go into heat, your body might even recognize him as your alpha. You really shouldn't tell him to bite you with such a tempting voice. He might just give you exactly what you want, if only to finally make you his and excuse such carelessness on the addictive effects you have on him.

Whatever happens, Alhaitham will have a logical reasoning to explain it away. He always does, and you always believe him.

#genshin chit chat #yandere alhaitham #tw: omegaverse #tw: abo #thinking about alpha akademiya student wanderer who is in a friendly rivalry with you #but the course of your acquaintanceship changes dramatically when you go into heat and he's the only alpha around >:)#omg... alpha wanderer babytrapping you so you're forced to drop out to focus on your pregnancy because overworking yourself when pregnant #won't be healthy for you or the baby #omg he ruins your life and academic career........ too many thoughts orz

Ace Attorney character that stands behind a bench in court and whose reputation precedes him. hes a powerhouse in the court with several years and several wins under his belt until one day during a trial, he gets called out and punished for using falsified evidence. in that same day, he ends up adopting the child of the man responsible for the punishment against said character. also the childs father is dead and that case is solved during the game.

now am i talking about Manfred Von Karma or Phoenix Wright?
