As a Targaryen, the easiest course of action you have when faced with a problem would be to simply get on your dragon and burn defenseless people.
Which is why Jace setting off and establishing diplomatic relationships with major houses will always be more impressive to me than the 19 y/o who burned a whole region in a pissy fit or his brother who took part in the bloodiest sack in Westerosi history.
Killing is easy when you’re on a beast high above the air facing people who can’t even outrun your flames, but convincing people to pledge their loyalty and men to your cause with words alone is hard.
The cultural impact Arrested Development has had is insane especially because it feels like a lot of people dont realize they are citing that show
"Dead dove: do not eat"
"Good for her"
"How much could a banana cost?"
The gif of the excavation site skull being smashed
"I love all of my children equally- I dont care for Gob"
"We finish each others sandwiches"
"Get me a vodka-" its the morning- "and a piece of toast"
"Why are you squeezing me with your body"
Do people know? Do they know they are quoting Lucille Bluth???
My wife <3

“What’s the worst part about living with your wife?”
.
“Ah well, you know. Temari’s a little scary.”
Shikamaru said this often, but Sasuke has a feeling he liked that about the Suna woman.
“Ino has far more things than I do, I often forget I live there too. Her side of the closet is actually the entire closet.”
“Hinata doesn’t let me eat ramen everyday so…I guess that can be a bummer.”
“Yeah, Karui sometimes doesn’t buy enough snacks,” Chouji pouts.
“And you, Sasuke?” The group turns to look at him, silent as usual.
He thinks about it. What was the worst part about living with Sakura? Their life together hadn’t been as traditional as others; they spent the first part of their marriage on the road and Sasuke was forced to be away from the village often.
But if he really had to say…
Well, for starters, she’s a bit of a blanket hoarder. She loves to cuddle, making it terribly difficult to get out of bed in the morning. Yes, she is awfully distracting much of the time.
She makes him feel a little bad for being reckless when she has to heal him.
And her hair, her hair gets everywhere. Fine pink strands often littered the bathroom floor if she had yet to vacuum in a while. But, in her defense, Sasuke’s hair is about the same length and clogs the drain just as much.
She has a rotten sweet tooth and has passed it down to their daughter. The cabinet is always full of little treats or disgustingly healthy soldier pills, there’s no in between. She teases him endlessly and embarrassingly, she makes him blush.
But he doesn’t feel like sharing these pieces of their life with the others, so he shrugs. Despite usually favoring bluntness, he tells a little lie, “I’m not home often enough to find something to complain about.”
The other men move on to a different topic, feeling a bit guilty that Sasuke is the one always out there protecting the village. Sasuke sits in silence, wondering when Sakura’s hospital shift would be over so he could go home to his wife.
General information
Scent Glands are skin areas on a body that hold and release a smell.
Scent glands vary in location based on secondary gender and age.
Different scent glands vary in sensitivity regarding how well they release and hold scents.
Scent glands release pheromones that impact the behavior of receiving individuals, whether it be to warn them, soothe them, express how the person is feeling, or other.
Alphas
Because Alphas have the biological urge to protect and, before civilized societies, were almost always the leaders and protectors of the pack, their scent glands cover more skin on their body than the other dynamics.
Having more of the Alpha’s scent on the pack kept them safe.
Alphas’ strongest scent glands are typically located on the neck and shoulders and on the inner thighs.
Having more scent glands allows Alphas to scent mark multiple pack mates at one time, satisfying their needs and keeping everyone safe.
The downside of having more scent glands is accidental scenting. Alphas have scent glands on their fingers and on the side of their torso, so brushing against people can cause unintentional scenting.
Alphas often have the most control of their scent out of all the secondary genders.
Omegas
Omegas have the biological predisposition to be the caretakers of the pack, so they developed the most sensitive and reactive scent glands.
On a biological level, Omegas’ scent glands have billions of nerves that relay information to the brain in record time so Omega’s can quickly respond to situations.
Certain scent glands, such as the ones on the Omega’s inner thighs and neck are as sensitive as lips or genitals (depending on where they are in their cycle). Many Omegas use numbing gel to take the edge off.
Omegas are prone to subconsciously respond to situations with their scent glands before they actually process them. For example, if a pup gets injured, an Omega will instantly release calming pheromones before physically reacting.
Scent glands on the breasts and stomach only develop once an Omega becomes pregnant. Scent glands on the stomach fade after pregnancy but the ones of the breasts remain.
Betas
Betas have the weakest scent glands out of all the secondary dynamics, however, this can make them more pleasant to be around and makes them excellent peacekeepers.
Betas’ strongest scent glands are on their neck, inner thighs and behind the ears.
Betas scent glands are generally weaker in terms of releasing pheromones and scent, but they can hold scents for longer periods of time than the other secondary genders.
Betas also have scent glands on their breasts, however, they only appear during pregnancy and fade in under 2 years after the birth of their child/ren. Scent glands on the breasts only appear on female Betas.
Pups
All Pups start out with about the same base scent glands. When they present and age, their scent glands develop to accommodate to their secondary gender.
A pup’s strongest scent gland is on the crown of their head.
Unfortunately, pups’ scent glands do not hold smells for long periods of time, so they need to constantly be scented by their parents and pack mates. Evolutionarily, this ensured that a pack would not leave their pup alone for long durations.
Specific Glands
Inner Thighs
It is only proper for mates and partners to scent mark each other’s inner thighs (for all secondary genders). Scenting inner thighs without consent, especially if the people are not mates, is considered highly inappropriate.
Aggressive scenting and biting to the inner thighs can trigger heats and ruts.
Aggressively scenting (such as licking, biting, etc) pups on their inner thighs is considered as rape.
Crown of Head
The scent gland on the crown of the head is called the Pup’s Crown. It is most sensitive during childhood and becomes the weakest scent gland as the person ages until it holds very little scent or fades completely.
Wrists
Wrists are the most respectful place to scent mark someone. Friends often scent each other on the wrists or after a successful first date, the people in question may scent each other on the wrist.
Rubbing one’s wrist scent glands may be a sign of anxiety or stress.
Wrists are also where pack bites are placed, this includes siblings bites, close relatives, or pack leadership.
Cheeks
Cheek scent glands are very similar to wrists in terms of respect.
Pups often rub cheeks with their friends to scent mark.
Cheek scent glands are usually not very sensitive, but when stimulated can produce minor scent.
Neck
The scent glands on the neck are the most sensitive for all the dynamics.
The neck is where a mating bite is placed. Parents may also bite their pups on the nape of the neck to solidify pack and parental bonds.
Scent marking that occurs on the neck also holds smell longer than on any other gland.
