Brave Smiles and Strong Laughter.

now, we've already seen toby make use of this in the past. he discovered that since it pulls in air from about eighteen inches higher than his nose can reach and expels it at his height, he can use it to get more smell data on current kitchen happenings. when I start cooking, he goes over to it and starts sniffing. but he's now advanced even further in his use of this particular tool.

lately, I've noticed that after drinking water, toby goes over to the vent and stands near it for 10-15 seconds or so before continuing on his merry way. I couldn't figure out why; usually, nothing that would produce interesting smells was happening. but when he did it today, I watched him more closely, and I saw he was gently swiveling his head from side to side. really weird, right? why would that help him sniff it better?

The Cotswolds Charm

Like when Gandalf spent literal PAGES trying to figure out why the vibes were off in Moria and Legolas chimes in with just "it's a balrog :) that shit's evil :) we're so fucked :)" like what do you MEAN you knew already and just didn't tell him??

Or at the beginning of Two Towers when Aragorn thinks there's something nearby so he puts his ear to the ground to listen, and then like 10 minutes later is like "hmmm i hear horses" and Legolas is just like "mm yep. there are 105 blond bitches with spears" like you just let your friend put his face in the dirt and you can SEE them??

gandalf is scratching his head in moria, and legolas is thinking "oh man, the wizard noticed something off *besides* the obvious balrog that we all are aware of??"

you stumble across some manner of varmint ceremony

It harms your lungs and it’s especially bad for children (and pets!) or anyone with health problems. There are all kinds of chemicals in that smoke. It’s not only trees that are burning. The heat already makes it harder to breath. This makes it worse.

If any of you are experiencing it, feel free to tell about it in the comments. 💚

Psst, hey, kids, do you like crying while reading a fanfiction? Then I can recommend you this absolutely amazing story Blue by @hollypunkers if you haven’t read it yet  ❤
