    Summary

    Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”

    “Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.

    “No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”

    “Go fuck yourself.”

    +++

    Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.

    And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

    Harry doesn't want any responsibilities, he wants to just sit in an office and do nothing, instead Tom keeps *bribing* him, and he wants that good apartment, so he has to be an overworked assistant

    Summary

    [...] When damping is small, the resonant frequency is approximately equal to the natural frequency of the system, which is a frequency of unforced vibrations. [...] When designing objects, engineers must ensure the mechanical resonance frequencies of the component parts do not match driving vibrational frequencies of motors or other oscillating parts, a phenomenon known as resonance disaster.

    -- Resonance. (2013, June 12). Wikipedia.

    Steve must be able to read the horror on his face this time, because he leans in. "Tony, you're being controlled? If you can respond, blink twice."

    Tony tries, he tries, but the best he can manage is a sort of flutter.

    Summary

    A letter from the imperial palace arrived early in the morning.

    In front of the gathered clans and hundreds of cultivators, the letter was read: His Imperial Majesty congratulated the Yiling Laozu and the late Empress Dowager's clan, Gusu Lan, for their betrothal.

    With the emperor's announcement, the decision was made for them and their fates were sealed.

    (Or: The first time the Yiling Laozu was married, it was to Nie Huaisang. The second time, he was obliged to take Hanguang-jun as his second husband.)
