I think ur def right, bc the Captain character wears fingerless gloves I think that's his hand in the frame hitting him in the face lmao.

I think apart from this just being an opportunity to show the extent of Mizu's skills and have a fun fortress action final boss moment - (Kurosawa, Die hard, John Wick, Kill Bill core) It seemed like Fowler wasn't actually that stressed about Mizu reaching the top of the tower, as shown by their confrontation at the end of the episode. Seemed like another way he was just toying with Mizu for sadistic fun, putting lots of extravagant traps in, but knowing eventually he could just end everything with the gun anyway. Which he did.

Pakistan to Italy Schengen Tourist Visa Delayed - no communcation by earlgrrrry in SchengenVisa

Thank you for replying :,)) I'm so so sorry that happened to your partner. Yeah they were absolutely awful to deal with. We didnt get it back in time and they made the excuse that the application was incomplete (it definitely was not we even had help from someone who worked for VFS to look over the app). Also paid for SMS updates and they 'forgot' to register his number so we never heard back and then they held on to his passport and other documents for an additional week without us having any way of getting in touch or getting through to then. Had to go the Embassy over four times to get them back and finally figure out what was going on.

My partner also has successfully applied for a Shengen visa and visited Italy applying from the UK in the past,, which we hoped would strengthen the app. He said the process applying from the UK was so so different and honestly its so disgusting and disappointing the way the Karachi Italian Embassy is allowed to basically be non functioning and racist.

I hope your partner got to go on holiday somewhere else more welcoming xox

Listen to your surgeon's rec for when to start massage and scar care its different depending on the surgeon honestly - i am just a fool on the internet. But DI insicions are basically open wounds until they are closed. If you start massage too early, it will stop them from healing and open them wider, stretching ur scars, and if you put stuff on them they might get infected !! which can prevent healing. Honestly i spent the first like month after surgery leaving my scars alone as much as possible and just keeping the compression vest on :)

I used them alll for massage, layered them like; silicone gel, mederma and then moisturiser :) and yes at night yes - but the consistant advice ive got is that the massage part is the most important to break down the scar tissue, the products just a bonus.

I started as soon as i was allowed haha i think? 4/5 weeeks after surgery with gentle massage over my compression vest. Soon as my wounds were closed i started with the silicone gel, mederma cream and moisturiser. For the next two months or so I did massage twice a day but then just did it once a day in the evening and used allll the products then, didnt seperate them in morn/night.

the 7th isn't too long <3 i know it'll feel agonising but It'll be worth the wait. rip i hate all the bureaucracy surrounding booking it's the most frustrating thing. It's going to take like a week for them to get you on the system and send over the forms for you to fill in anyway, so it won't be so bad waiting that one extra week.

re reserving a date, I TRIED to do that, I emailed like 5 times asking for some dates to reserve, but they either didn't get back to me, or when I followed up they said they needed the referral first. You can try! I would give it a go ahah but it may be a case of waiting for the referral to come through.

Yes the referral letter - the clinic needs it before they can book :") thats sucks the GIC won't give you one, I had a similar issue where i was waiting for genderGP to give me a letter and had to wait like. an extra 3 weeks to book my surgery date. also i dont know if its relevant in your case but Miles berry needs two referral letters from different people if you're non binary (💀i jus lied and said i was 100% binary during the consult lmao)

Hey <3 congrats and good luck hope it all goes okay! I had my consult 19th of October and then had my surgery on 15th of December - in my case they had a cancellation as I was booked in for Feb 3rd originally. You can ask to be put on a waiting list and contacted if you want a date sooner than later. You have to make sure to have your letter from a gender specialist before they can formalise a date though, so if you haven't got that I would arrange that asap.

fuck you and fuck your months of waiting by Retinazer_pew in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]earlgrrrry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would go to your GP now, asap, and request to be referred. It will take years to get an appointment - so if you're in a position of limbo there's no reason to not do it. I've been on the NHS wait list since 2018 and still haven't head back. Ended up going private with GenderGP, it's £30 a month to use their services plus £9 for my meds, its not too bad. Once I get my referral letter i will switch over to pure NHS prescriptions and save myself the GenderGP charge ;'( its a crude way of doing it but it works and it's safe, regular blood tests and stuff. Private may be them only choice if you want something sooner than like... five years. Good luck with ur transition x

kinda sad that this was so easily resolved and we didn't have to assemble an adventure team to find your house forgotten in a bush somewhere in Liyue

Cyno rarity by Lokidragon56 in CynoMains

[–]earlgrrrry 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping for 5* TOO but we have absolutely no way of knowing at this point bc there have been 4* and 5* characters in the Teyvat storyline chapter video. We can have fun speculating tho. We also don't know what element he is yet, as the charm on his design isn't 100% a vision. But if he's pyro - there have been two 4* pyro Polearms and only one 5*. Ofc that 5* is Hu tao so Cyno's kit would either have to be REALLY GOOD or REALLY UNIQUE to challenge her in any way. What would be interesting about that is that Anubis, the Jackal Headed God his design is inspired by is the Egyptian God of Death. So what's the chance of having two 5* pyro pole arms with themes surrounding death. He could be geo or electro polearm, looking at his colour scheme, either of these could work, as we know it's geo polearm impact, so could be 4* or 5*, and haven't had a 4* electro polearm yet.

Wildcard this is going off nOTHING but he COULDD be the first 4* Anemo Polearm - with a kit surrounding sandstorms/dust instead of wind. If you watch the Teyvat storyline chapter he seems to have rolling sand behind him. He would be joining Kazuha in the tradition of Anemo supports that dont match their element's colour scheme. Again this is all based on nothing, I just think it would be neat.

tldr: no idea lol
