Typical evenings

It's still July 31st where I'm at. Please be kind to me this is my first time doing something like this EVER. I had to hop on this event and write a cute domestic fanfic of my favorite couple since I was in middle school. I got the inspiration from the apartment I was visiting and saw the dog park.

Photo was taken by me I literally spent like 20 minutes trying to take the photo because I didn't want to get any of the people in it.

I decided to use Katsuya instead of Jonouchi because they're married in this fic and his name would be Katsuya Kaiba not Jonouchi. But Jojo is a reference to Jonouchi. Anyways thank you for reading!

Kaijou Summer Event 2026!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Katsuya sighs in content as he stands right next to his husband, enjoying the breeze from the warm summer evening. He and Seto had just moved into a new apartment complex together in a coastal town outside of Domino. After being in a cold office building for hours, being outside in the warm air was a nice change.

Seto gave Katsuya a Golden Retriever puppy for their anniversary last year, he was feeling lonely after Mokuba moved out for college and Kaiba estate was feeling too cold so moving was the best option.

The apartment complex was perfect, there was a dog park and a long walkway that went around the lake with a water fountain in the middle. And it was only a 30 minute drive to the office so it was perfect for the little family of three.

“Katsuya, Jojo wants you to throw his ball.” Katsuya’s face turns to look at Seto when he says that. He grins sheepishly before looking towards the puppy. Jojo barks happily as his dad finally acknowledges him.

“You ready buddy? Are you ready?!” Katsuya says excitedly to the jumping ball of fur. Jojo barks in anticipation while waiting for the blue ball in his hand to be thrown. He chuckles and with the swing of his arm the ball has gone airborne. Jojo chases quickly after the ball across the dog park, a flash of gold running past the equipment.

“He reminds me of you when we were younger. Happy when someone gives them their attention and full of energy that never seems to end.” Seto says while he wraps his arms around the blonde shoulders. He hears Katsuya huff in his grasp in response to his comment.

“Yeah, well he reminds me of you when he doesn’t get his way. He glared at me when I didn’t let him eat the chocolate I dropped on the floor. God forbid I wanna keep him alive.” He huffed out before crossing his tanned arms over his chest.

The brunette gave him a surprised look before chuckling softly into the air. He pulls Katsuya into his arms, pulling him to his chest before he buries his face into the golden locks of hair. The setting sun and the breeze was making the blondes long hair tousle in the air, looking like fire in the wind. A look that Seto will never get over on his beloved, looking like the ball of sunshine that he is, he will always love it. Soon warm brown eyes met cold blue eyes, causing Seto's breath to hitch when Katsuya's eyes glowed in the golden hour as he smiled up at him.

“God, you’re so beautiful to me.” Seto murmurs as he pulls Katsuya into a kiss. Katsuya smiles into their shared kiss as the wind blows around them, making their hair dance in their faces, golden blonde meeting chocolate brown. The two were so caught up in their moment that they didn’t notice the Golden Retriever had returned with his ball in his mouth, looking up at his parents sitting with his tail wagging side to side happily. After a minute he paws at both their legs to get their attention, they both turn to look down at him. Seto brings a hand down to pet Jojo’s head lightly and then grabs the ball from his mouth. He holds the ball in his hand a little longer before tossing it once more. Jojo took off once again, leaving the two alone in their embrace.

Katsuya gave Seto a quick peck on the cheek before laying head on his shoulder.

“It feels so nice right now, I wish it was like this all the time, all warm and peaceful.” Katsuya sighs happily while leaning on his husband. Seto hums in agreement before laying his head on top of Katsuya's head.

After a while they packed up and began to make their way towards their apartment on the second floor. Katsuya was stuck in thought before he opened the door.

“How do you feel about getting a cat?” He says while grinning.

omg why do white ppl love cheese so mu-

I actually didnt know that

The answer is apparently “because we’re actually able to eat it”

Fun fact: white people (specifically Northern European white people) have a genetic mutation that allows them to digest lactose even after weaning, which is abnormal for all mammals and also most humans. It’s theorized that because Northern Europe doesn’t get a lot of sun, an alternative source of vitamin D (like milk) would be a useful trait. It’s a very recent mutation that would only have happened after humans started domesticating animals like cows and goats.

oh no, my bizarre moment has come, cause lactose tolerance is actually A Thing I Know About because it’s played a fascinating role in human evolution for thousands of years. This chart displays some of the broad trends, but it’s giving near continental averages, which doesn’t showcase how this kind of thing really breaks down and some of the surprising exceptions.

Lactose tolerance is the majority trait for only a very few population groups: North Europeans (and therefore populations that draw heavily from that stock, such as America,) nomadic central Eurasians, and sub-Saharan pastoralist Africans, but that latter group is often overlooked. The vast majority of Africans cannot process lactose, but certain people groups whose lifestyles have revolved around cattle for thousands of years will have 80% and even approaching 100% lactose tolerance rates. They’d be spots of dark green amidst a sea of orange and burgundy on the above chart.

Our hunter-gatherer ancestors were almost entirely lactose intolerant, that is definitely the biological norm (and people groups who maintained that lifestyle, such as Native Americans, remained as such – along with groups who transitioned to sedentary agricultural lifestyles, but I’ll get into that). As such, lactose tolerance is an adaptive trait that only became prevalent in environments that exerted strong selective pressure for it. So, cows were domesticated some 10,000 odd years ago in the Middle East (and some have contended for an independent domestication event in Africa as well). In either case, cattle quickly spread across the continent and we know there was milking and cheese production at least 6,000 years ago in both the Nile and Mesopotamia. While cow meat would have been enjoyed by all, in agricultural societies milk and cheese would have been options, but hardly staples as there were plenty of other things to eat as well, and therefore there would have been no selective pressure for processing lactose. Also, sedentary societies had ways of processing milk and cheese that allowed lactose intolerant people to drink/eat dairy products. Fermenting milk or aging cheese breaks down lactose, making it a non issue once ingested. This is why fermented milk may seem utterly foul to many Westerners, but is extremely common in other parts of the world. But, fermentation and aging requires time, and the ability to store things in a single location for weeks or even months. Sedentary societies adapted the milk to fit their biology, but nomadic societies did the reverse.

There are still mobile pastoralist societies in Africa today, and there have been for thousands and thousands of years. For many of them, cows are not one of many dietary options, they are the single dietary staple around which their lifestyle revolves. Biologically, this means you gotta get with the program if you wanna survive. For most mobile tribes, fermentation and aging weren’t options, so there would have been strong selective pressure favoring those who could drink milk straight outta the cow, as they would have had an additional, highly nutritious food source available to them. Milk also allowed for a marked shortening of the weaning process, transitioning children from breastmilk to cow’s milk, which would again be advantageous for groups where both the men and women work and are always on the move. Over generations these populations specialized into essentially cow-based lifestyles, creating a survival niche highly advantageous to them, and fast forward thousands of years and there are groups in Africa with near ubiquitous lactose tolerance, while the rest of the continent (and the world really) is nearly entirely intolerant.

Many of these same factors would have influenced the central Eurasian populations, which is why Mongolians and other descendants of nomadic steppe peoples are largely lactose tolerant, as mare’s milk would have been a dietary staple (though they also developed efficient ways to ferment it).

North Europeans developed lactose tolerance in response to deficiencies in certain nutrients. The northern climate limited Vitamin D production, and the agricultural products available to them were often low on calcium and protein, and so dairy farming developed alongside agriculture to create a more rounded diet (and this was limited to Northern Europeans, as Mediterranean peoples such as the Romans wrote about their great confusion at the northern barbarians’ ability to drink fresh milk)

And I promise all of this is fascinating because the ability to process lactose evolved independently in several different population groups and in response to different factors: lifestyles revolving around cows, lifestyles revolving around horses, deficiencies in climate and agriculture. Besides providing insight into human history and biology, lactose tolerance is also a great example of convergent evolution, where different genetic populations in different environments produce similar results.

And uh, that’s my rant about the role of milk and lactose tolerance in human evolution.

NON-BINARY MASTER POST (part 1)

[EDIT: The illustration “It’s okay to be different” is not showing someone who is binding with bandages! That would be extremely unsafe. I was trying to portrait a post-op scene.] This is a collection of all my body positive illustrations for non-binary folks I did in 2017. I hope, they help you! <3
