how did you first get into making this stuff? do you enjoy it?

There's a lot of possible answers here.

For a couple years after college, I worked at a laser engraving and cutting shop. Leather was a material we knew we could cut, but nobody ever asked for it, so I looked up some basic info and put together some masks as demo pieces. Then I got fired for unrelated reasons, but decided to keep going with the masks on my own. A decade later, I’m still going.

I've always enjoyed making things. The focused calm of working a craft, the challenge of finding the problems that need solving, followed by the satisfaction of holding in your hands something that hadn't exited before. It’s hard to beat that feeling. If you haven’t done it for a while, I highly recommend making a habit of it.

Sometime in college I realized that if I kept making things just for myself, I would eventually run out of both space in my closet and money in my bank account. So I took the best photos I could of what I had, and started posting it up on Etsy.

In high school ceramics class, I had an idea to try and make a flexible dragon skin out of little bits of clay, all glazed differently. I had no idea how to do this. A friend of mine was like "Yo it sounds like you want to look up how to make chainmail for that." She was right.

I work in architecture by day, and the decision to do that was unrelated but definitely related to my crafting obsession. Designing a kitchen, a café, a house, takes months or years of work, most of which is tedious details like picking tile patterns or looking up exactly what order to layer different sealant tapes to make sure the walls are watertight. Designing a crafting project gives me a creative outlet that is immediate. I can sit down for an afternoon and take an idea from a sketch on trace paper, to a final mask formed up out of leather. There's an excitement to that. A reminder that, yes, I can make cool stuff quickly, without needing to sink two years into a project.

For a while I worked to teach myself to draw. I managed to get pretty decent at sketching from life, with a moderate understanding of anatomy and perspective. I liked art, so I thought I wanted to make art. But I struggled with it. If I was drawing something from my imagination, no matter how well I managed to put the lines down on the paper, I would ultimately look at it and just be sad that it didn't exist in the real world. So eventually I gave up on the drawing part, and focused on the part I seemed to actually care about.

I can't envision a version of myself that doesn't make things. I think on some fundamental level, I measure my worth as a person based on what I put forth into the world. I don't know what else to do.

When you decide to turn a hobby into a business, it of course takes some of the delight away. It's no longer something you do when you want to relax and have some fun. It becomes an obligation, to make and ship orders on time, to pack up your stuff and bring it to craft fairs, to track your expenses and file your taxes, to stay on top of the constantly changing social media landscape. But it also lights a fire under your ass. You can't just keep making the same thing you made three years ago–you have to keep making new stuff, keep improving your techniques, keep reaching for new ideas that have never been made before. You lose some of the joy, but you gain a lot of satisfaction.

All through my childhood I filled my closet with little handicrafts kits, that I got as gifts or that caught my eye when following my dad to the art store. Calligraphy, wood carving, weaving looms, boondoggles, spirographs, knitting, crochet, fancy nautical knots, sculpey, and more that I can't remember. After all those different things, I’m so glad that I found a couple specific crafts that really grabbed me, that take enough work to develop expertise, that have expansive enough applications and possibilities, that I could devote a decade or more of my time to focusing on them.

I’d been interested in the furry fandom ever since little fantasy reading teenager me tried looking for stories where the dragons were the main characters, and I found people online who were doing just that. There’s a powerful do-it-yourself attitude that’s baked into the core of the fandom: The world isn’t giving us the art that we want, so we’re going to make it ourselves. I keep having ideas for things that I want, that don’t exist yet. If I want them to exist, I have to be the one to make them.

My dad was a photographer, and I spent many childhood afternoons with him in his darkroom in the basement, delightedly washing negatives, turning them gently over in their canisters of chemicals, sitting still in the dark as Dad unspooled the sensitive film, squinting in the red light as the projected images magically re-emerged on the clean white paper. What could be more amazing, more normal, more right, than having your own little space to work such magic for yourself.

In about 2008 or 9 I ordered my first batch of metal scales, with the idea of trying to make a dragon tail in time for Halloween. It took probably a couple weeks to figure out how to make it, and within a week I had thought of how to do it better and disassembled the entire thing. By the 3rd or 4th time I'd rebuilt it, I thought that it was probably good enough that I wouldn't feel embarrassed to post it online and see if someone might want to buy it.

Of course I love working on these things I make. But I don't think that's exactly why I make them.

A Love Like no Other ❤️ Pt 2

a/n : Part 2 is uppp!! Woohooo!!!! I’m working on more content.

Pairings: Aged Up! Killua Zoldyck x OC/Reader

Warnings: mentions of death

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

What the actual hell…

All Mei could do was sit here and look dumb.  Or cute? Dumb cute? cute dumb? Or how about just dumb and cute! The room on the other hand wasn’t cute at all. Dragons on the walls, engraved in the chairs, statues of dragons! Good God this family loves their dragons! I don’t want any part of it. 

Mei has never felt so uncomfortable in her life! The dragons on top of the cold atmosphere were unsettling. First off was this even a room? It felt more like a cellar to Mei. What’s up with the chains and all these dragon heads?

Although, she doesn’t think the 4 individuals sitting across from her would think the same thing. A woman who is wearing very expensive looking Victorian style clothes with a visor on. Looks like she came out of some sci-fi historic movie. A man with black short hair, glasses and in a suit. A child with a kimono on and the white haired boy from before. 

Mei was pretty surprised when she walked though the door and seen him with this group of people. He just stared at her and glared. Understandable sir, Imll just crawl under my bed and won’t come out til next year! Or better yet, I’LL JUST FIND MY WAY BACK TO MY WOLRD!! 

Mei wanted to cry, but now isn’t the time for crying she can worry about that later down the line. Crying < Surviving. 

“Your name is…,” Mei couldn’t tell where the woman was looking at due to the visor.

“Mei! My name is Mei Delaney!” 

“And you don’t have any documentation on you whatsoever, why is that?” The woman’s asked in a suspicious tone.

Mei did not have any an actual answer for this question. She didn’t do any preparing at all for it. So just like her daddy said, FAKE IT TIL YOU MAKE IT! “I’m actually an orphan.”

“An orphan?”

“Yes, an orphan,” It’s not like I’m telling a lie, “I’m sorry is the paper work required?” Will I not be getting a job today?

“No it is not and it is very much preferred!” Her pen scratched in the paper as she wrote some words down. Ew, why is the pen dragon shaped?!?! “Have you had any prior experiences as a butler?”

“Nope!” Unless you count being a slave to your grandparents as one! “Never been one before but I’ve cleaned.”

“Cleaning isn’t all that you will be doing,” It isn’t? What else do butlers do in this world?!?, “What would you say your current level of strength is?”

Mei wouldn’t know how to classify herself. This world’s average could be her worlds above average. Just to be safe,”I would say below average!” 

The man and the white haired boy squinted at her. It was like they were evaluating her to see if she was as weak as she let on. 

“Hmmm,” the woman chewed her ugly dragon headed pen, “Not the best but you are still trainable. I’ll put you in as a cook. Your job will to prepare our meals while also help around the kitchen. You are not a butler just yet you but you can call yourself a butler’s apprentice. Gotiah send her off to the facility!”

Facility?? Wait don’t I get to ask questions?

Before Mei could say a word she is already being escorted out the room.

———————————————————————

It’s her. So far all the applicants were below average, the Zoldyck trainers had their work cut out for them. Killua didn’t think any were going to make it past the first trial, especially her! 

15 days…

She doesn’t know what it really means to be a Zoldyck butler. Hell, she wouldn’t even know what it means to be a Zoldyck! Her and her sunny disposition doesn’t belong here in this world of death and darkness. She looked so gentle and sweet, he wanted to see the light die in her.

———————————————————————

At least I’m not in the ugly ass room anymore. The walk to the facility felt like a hike up the Appalachian trails and Mei was not exaggerating. She suspected that they were prolonging the walk by taking unnecessary paths and picking the toughest ground to walk on. Mai wasn’t sure how much she could take of this especially with this oversized bag on her back. She knew she should’ve packed less. The 2 men she was walking with didn’t even seem to be phased!!

Luckily for Mei she could see the building coming into view and sure enough it was as big as the cellar building. I wonder how big the mansion is, if this is what this building looks like…

Mel could see the other applicants who passed before her. They were all waiting with their belongings. Mei threw her bag down, thanking whatever diety this world worshipped.

 “Yₒᵤ’ᵣₑ Wₑₗcₒₘₑ,” A voice whispered in Mei’s head!

“WHAT?!” That was way louder than what Mei intended it to be as everyone looked at her giving her a confusing look. “Sorry…” Mei was embarrassed now, but WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT VOICE! She hopes transporting to this world hasn’t made her crazy. Dealing with a genetic mutation would make things a lot worse for her.

“You will leave your stuff here and someone will be back with yours shortly.” The 2 butlers she traveled with walked away and disappeared. 

Uh woah?

————————————————————

The sun was beginning to set after some time has passed and others have joined them sitting outside. Mei would say there is about 250 of the 400 that showed up at the moment.

“I heard some people were losing as applicants but were actually hunters looking to capture a Zoldyck or get on their property.” 

“I seen the dead bodies! When I did my interview there were a few piled up on each other. This family is serious!”

Ew gross! Mei was made uncomfortable by the conversations around her about death, and how a single picture of a family member was worth $300 million Jenny (She assumes Jenny is the equivalent to dollars in this world).

SSSCCCHREEEECHHHHH

The huge door opened up and out walked a tall lady with her hair in pigtails. She was pretty buff and looked like she could kill Mei even at her old age.

“Looks like everyone is here that’s has made it through! Let’s get started!”

Oh no…

(Third POV)

Three years spent to make it here. It was graduation day (N)(L) this thirty eight year old, versus this younger generation. Little did she know that was the day everything would change in her life.

~Back Stage The Auditorium~

*whispers*"Lets prank (N) shes too old to be a nurse much less a Doctor."

*whispers*

"Okay we like worked really hard we deserve to get in." The two young girls giggle as the guest doctor named Marco Phoenix overhears and sees that the two young girls hide (N)s diploma in the bottom rung of the podium.

~Back in the Auditorium~

The ceremony begins and then ends without (N) hearing her name. She had sworn she had gotten accepted to the number one hospital in Japan, Tokyo she did recieve the congratulations letter.

"Ladies and gentlemen it seems a prank was pulled. We have one more accepty. Please welcome (N)(L) to Kiba medical hospital along with your crew except. You two. Yoi" Marco points to the two girls who pulled the prank and continues.

"Dont be like these two (-) and (-). They deliberately were going to let one of their own suffer just to get ahead. That could have been the difference between life and death today. Yoi."

"Were very sorry" the girls respond on stage as (N) our main character walks up on stage slipping behind them along with her graduating group.

"Sorry, doesnt save lives. That is why I have decided to reject your applications to Kiba. We need doctors like (N) who want to be good doctors who do the right things not step on others. Yoi" Marco then allows the school board to continue their announcements as they agree with him to save face as everyone knows hes the number one doctor at the number one hospital in the country. The two girls go back to their seats semi crying knowing all their hard work was flushed down the toilet now they must tell their parents what they've done.

~First Day Of Training (N) POV~

You walk in to Kiba hospital after your thirty minute length trip on the train from the flatlands where your apartment is and meet up with your group.

"Allright since everyones here. Lets start with introductions. After everyone else has gone it was your turn

"Hello im (N)(L) I hope we can all be friends" you say nervously chipper for the sake of it, then the group moved from room to room as it was touring day. At a short break you go to the vending machines and grab an iced coffee. Then you see your supervisor Marco or Mr. Phoenix to you, grabs the same coffee.

"Looks like we like the same coffee. And whats that? Yoi" he points closely near your heart to you golden Phoenix feather pin on your staff lanyard.

"Oh this, it was a specialty item there were only two hundred in the world made. Its from Uno Piece the anime and manga. Mines engraved it was from my father" you say excitedly. He leans over the smallish table to show you.

"I have one too, not engraved but also the ultra rare enamel pin of him in the anime Yoi" Mr. Phoenix says.

"Oh wow thats so cool Mr. Phoenix" you say politely geeking out with him drinking coffee. After half a day you felt the urge to use the bathroom once done it seems your group has passed on. Seeing a nearby doctor you ask.

"Excuse me do you know where Group A went? I stepped out for a second now their gone." You ask politely and he nudges you two feet over to see down the hall.

"Sure you go straight then a left the straight-" right before you can react a gaint tools bucket fell from the ceiling of the hospital cracking the doctors skull but he was still breathing.

In shock but able to function you call for help while trying to keep him conscious.

"Can you hear me blink once for yes twice for no" he blinks once. Suddenly You see Mr. Phoenix running with the group.

"Stay back wait all of you! Yoi" He yells as your on your hands and knees trying to keep the doctor conscious. Mr. Phoenix runs to you and the doctor.

"(N) did you see what happened? Go to the wall and wait! Yoi" He calls on his radio for emergency code red.

"I saw what happened I was right there!" You say loudly to him. Now everythings in slow motion the doctor and the emergency team roll him away to emergency surgery. Your looking at the wall hands on top of your (C) hair while your bright purple scrubs were soaked in red blood. While all that happened, you take time to calm down breathing in and out. Once they take the doctor away Mr. Phoenix walks over to you to recount the tale.

"Are you allrigh-"

"(N) your bleeding too on your forehead. Yoi" he says.

"Most of it is his blood. It should have been me" you say lip quivering.

"What? What do you mean? Yoi" He asks.

"I came out of the bathroom asked him where the group had gone and he nudged me over from the spot that would have hit me. Then the bucket fell right where I was supposed to be. I looked up and saw the construction worker but hes gone now he was wearing overalls and a flash yellow long sleeve shirt and yellow hat." You explain.

"Listen its not your fault its like the butterfly effect things happen. Go have that bandaged up while I deal with the police. Yoi"

~After Awhile~

'So I ended up having to get stiches oh well. I wonder how that doctor is doing hopefully alive its been hours' then you hear a familiar voice.

"Gather round Group A! Yoi" Mr. Phoenix says. As everyone gathers he says

"Everyone we will convene tomorrow. (N) I need to talk with you. Yoi" as everyone leaves Mr. Phoenix goes over to you and asks.

"How are you doing? (N)? Yoi"

"What? Im fine just tired. How is he?" You say calmly.

"Their still operating on him. And well your strangely calm do you feel -,-,-,-,or -? Yoi" He asks a series of questions about being in shock to which you respond no to all.

"Why are you so calm? Yoi" he asks worriedly.

"My parents are dead and my adoptive dad is dead I grew up and saw some people die in front of me not knowing but knowing. Its just me now, its why I wanted to be a doctor one day to help people like me get and feel better at least." You long windedly say. He raises an eyebrow.

"In other words you have the experience that all these new bees dont have. Its really hard but valuable. You know Soji threw up after seeing all that blood. Yoi" he states.

"I suppose. And really? I only do that or faint when I see my own blood" You reply.

"Why dont you take a shower before heading home? Ill have Sui show you the womens showers and give you a change of clothes. Yoi" he suggests.

"Thank you Mr. Phoenix" you say respectfully.

"Please just Marco I never liked formalities. Its gonna be okay. Yoi" he finishes saying then shows you to Sui who showed you the shower then gave you new clothes.

~Six Months Later (Third) POV~

The doctor had survived but had to retire due to his injuries. (N) and Marco like to have breaks chating about the Uno Piece universe which has all different characters. Over the months (N) has developed some feelings for her supervisor but squash them because its illegal. Little did she know that he may feel the same.

~One Day At Work (N) POV~

Walking into work you felt sluggish today.

'Marco isn't in yet, strange, hes always on time' you think as you go to your station and clock in. After five minutes you spy Marco walk into the building. The same blonde hair lidded eyes and tallness. Doing paperwork for doctors you continue your pace not interfering since that would be over the line. On your break you head to the vending machine you got your normal coffee but Marco got juice.

'Strange he never got juice not once in all the time ive been here but maybe hes changing it up?' You think.

"Whatsup with the juice? Trying something new today Marco?" You politely ask as he looks at you then slowly sits at your table across from you.

"Yea decided to try something new" he replys back.

'Okay somethings off' you got the chills as you ask

"Hey wheres your pin?"

"Pen? Haha you mean this pen?" He pulls out a golden pen.

"Um no,... pin see we have match limited edition ones remember? Dont tell me you lost it?!" You say a little loudly as you hear the receptionist say

"Marco? But your right there next to (N)"

You look at his eyes and suddenly feel shaken. You hear the door open to the hospital and Marco on the phone then hung up and is now talking to the receptionist about security. As you look at Marco then flash back to the man in front of you. You couldnt move it was a deer in headlights kindave feeling.

"Your not Marco..." you say as he nods as the man clasps his hands together finishing the juice with a straw.

You could hear the real Marco calling your name to get away

"(N) get away from him Yoi" but you couldnt move the mans icey glare held you down in place.

"Sharp miss (n)" the man says quietly. Finally Marco reached you and grabbed your arm getting you to stand up as he put himself inbetween you and the man.

"Juzo what are you doing here?! Yoi" Marco asks loudly as you could hear the faintness of security Marco still holding your arm and you behind him.

"I knew you seemed too happy last visit to mom and dad. Got yourself a little bird there?" Juzo said raising an eyebrow.

"That is none of your concern im calling the police and our parents to let them know you broke the restraining order Yoi" Marco slightly yells loosing his cool causing some people to look. Marco gets his phone out and calls the police telling them the whole situation as Juzo starts walking out of the building.

"Hes leaving the building you can find him at Taizo Medical his work." Marco talks to the police.

'Taizo Medical is the second best hospital in Japan. So Marco has a twin brother?' You think as you start to put it together. After he gets off of the phone with the police he says

"(N) are you okay? Oh sorry about your arm... Yoi" he says and lets go of your arm.

"I knew something wasnt right!" You say as he raises an eyebrow

"And how did you know he wasnt me no one could ever tell us apart" He questions staring at you. You were caught. Blushing slightly you admit

"Well he got juice instead of coffee and he didnt have your pins. He didnt talk like you either. He didnt chat like we usually do. When I said pen he pulled out a golden writing pen not the Phoenix feather pin." You explain. You could see a small blush creep up on his face as he says

"Sharp as always (N) Yoi" and turns to call his parents.

"Hello father Juzo came to my hospital today and broke the agreement just thought you should know ---- yes I called the police-------allright goodbye." *click*

He turns to you and asks

"What did he say to you? Anything? Yoi"

"Um not much but I asked him about the juice and pin now he knows about the pin at least if hes a problem then here lets trade pins, mines engraved so if it happens again we can identify you" he looks shocked as you undo your pin and hold it out for him. He puts his phone away and takes his pin off and trades you. He looks at the engraving then puts it on.

"Thank you (N) ill keep it safe. Yoi" he smiles wide then chuckles putting a hand on the back of his head says

"Sorry to cause a scene Yoi"

"Its fine but I didnt know you had a twin he gave me the shivers totally not you" you say pondering. As security come up to Marco your break ends you say goodbye to Marco as hes telling the security to check his badge from now on.

~Four Months Later~

You and Marco grow somewhat closer having nicknames now due to the anime and manga Uno Piece.

Your oblivious to his advances like him saying,

"Maybe the crew should get together and eat out sometime? Yoi" but you are always polite and decline and make him fall flat. At least your following company policies but he still tries to advance regardless, trying to find out more about you. In turn you find out more about him too like how his favorite fruit is pineapple and his birthday is October fifth.

Your writing up papers as you glance up to your water bottle you swore Marco was staring at you.

'Its just my imagination theres no way anyone knows what today is for me' you drink some water and notice Marco glance at you again as you continue to do paperwork. Once break time, you head to the vending machine only to see

"Oh hey Marco your early today" you say as you put your ¥ into the machine and *clank* drops the iced coffee. You pick it up and sit across from him, you both smiling.

"Whatsup big bird?" You ask taking a sip of your coffee. He says

"I found out its someones birthday today Yoi!" He says excitedly bring out a chocolate cupcake with a candle on top. Your eyes widen.

"Theres no way you just <found out> about my birthday" you say.

"For certain obvious reasons we can't light the candle but happy birthday welcome to thirty nine Yoi" he says as he also places something in front of you.

"Welcome to? What how old are you Marco?" You question quizzically.

"Me oh im forty four now Yoi" he smiles. Looking down you realize its the extremely rare main character pin from a even more limited release of Uno Piece.

"Awee I cant accept this I know how much these go for!" You say blushing as he chuckles and smiles.

"Haha I insist that way we both have two pins of him Yoi" you could see a very light blush on Marcos face as he continues smiling with lidded eyes.

"Happy birthday (N) Yoi" you look up meeting his eyes yours all sparkly

"Thank you so much Marco I suppose I can accept it then, ill take extra good care of it!" He blushes slightly drinking his coffee as he seems to try and not to blush.

'Hes so cute when he tries not to blush- wait! Hes just being friendly this is just what friends do. Hes my superior. I better get him something on his birthday too' you think as you pin the enamel pin on your lanyard.

~Two Months Later~

You and Marco are quiet fond of eachother you both have eachothers numbers now. And text out of work mainly about animes, about work, likes, dislikes etc. Over the year you went from timid and quiet to happy and peppy kindave like Marco or is it because of Marco?

~At Work~

"Allright gather round everyone! Yoi" Marco yells after our small section.

"Everyone here good. Were doing our yearly dine out and karaoke to celebrate those who have become nurses! Everyone is invited let me know whose going and whose not to make a reservation Yoi"

"Sui is a yes, Soji is a yes. What about you (N) coming out with us this time? Yoi" he asks seemingly expecting a no but you respond.

"Sure Marco sounds fun!" You smile at him making him double take chuckling.

"Well look at who bloomed over this year. You going out now excellent! Good for you. Yoi" Marco says as Sui says to you

"Yay finally (N)s coming out with us!" Sui chirps.

"Its about time (N). Allright I gotta get back to my wife and baby" Soji says.

"Okay see you all later I gotta cetch the trains goodnight everyone!" You wave to everyone and Marco seeing him with a wide smile on his face.

~Once Off The Train Viewing Your Apartment~

You see a very tall, blonde hair, man in a doctors coat.

'But Marco left after me. Does he have a car? I better call him to see' you think as you wait at the station across the street from your apartment.

*ring ring* *ring ring* *click*

"Hello (N) is everything oka-" you cut Marco off.

"Are you by chance standing at my apartment door right now Marco?" Panicked he replies.

"No call the police! And give me your address right now ill come there! Try and stay hidden. Yoi"

"Im thirty minutes away hes sure to notice me just sitting at an empty station" you say upset.

"Just send me your address now! Yoi" *click* you quickly type your address in link form so he can google maps it as you wait at the train station and call the police and explain whats going on.

'Okay the police will get here after Marco does. I just hope Juzo doesnt recognize me first' you think as you see after 18 minutes he notices you and it takes a couple minutes for him to walk over as he staggers a little. He approaches you.

"Hey there, Marcos sharp little bird~" Juzo sings as you get a whiff of booze off him.

"What do you want Juzo? Why do you smell of booze aren't you a doctor?" You question him, having no way to defend yourself.

"I want to take that happy smile off Marcos face starting with you. I lost my job due to malpractice so what? Hes always first at everything! Ever since we were children! Hes always gotten the best everything, while I was cast aside!" He grabs your wrists with his strong hands and starts pulling you to towards your apartment as you resist. He uses one hand to subdue both of your hands and pulls out a taser as you hear a fast approaching car and a screech to a stop you felt a rush of electricity in your neck as your body convulses then falls limp as you hear a car door.

~Marcos POV~

You screech the car to a stop eject the key as you see in the dimly lit parking lot a spark of electricity that is unnaturally blue. Getting out of your car you see Juzo and (n)s body fall limp as he lets her fall on the concrete of her apartment complex carpark. You chase Juzo down and tackle him punching him in the gut then hand locking him as you hear the sirens of the police. Once the police arrived you let them take Juzo as he had the weapon and you explained the situation.

~(N) POV~

You come too realizing your in an ambulance you say

"Dont take me I cant afford it!" You slightly raise your voice to the paramedics as they sigh and help you out of the ambulance. You see Marco and Juzo who, you assume is in the police car. Walking over to who you assume is Marco and the police

"Miss are you allright? Can you identify this man" the policemen ask.

"Im alive. I was tazed by Juzo Phoenix. Umm let me see your pin?" You say to the policemen and assumedly Marco takes off his pin and hands his to you. You smile at the engraving and give it back.

"He is definitely Marco Phoenix. The one in the police car is Juzo Phoenix who tazed me, hes way over the alchohol limit as well." You say as you cross your arms.

"Miss please explain everything that happened as you remember it for the record" the police say and you explain everything.

"Allright do you want to press charges miss? We can grant a rush restraining order as well due to the violence of this crime." You bite your lip as you and Marco both say at the same time

"Id/shed like to press charges Yoi" you both look at eachother then back to the policemen.

"All right fill out these forms miss (N)(L)" filling out the forms you could only think

'How much is this gonna cost me? I dont have that much saved up' After you finish filling out the paperwork they take Juzo and the ambulance away.

"Sorry about this Marco..." you suddenly burst into tears. As he immediately hugs you rubbing your back.

"Shh its not your fault (N), come on lets get you inside so you can let it out. Im just glad I got here in time. Yoi" Marco comforts you as he *beep beeps* his car locked. He side hugged you all the way to your door helped you unlock it then you slip off both your shoes and sit on the couch as Marco lets you cry into his chest, hands resting around his waist feeling his abs, until you could cry no more.

"(N) im so sorry about Juzo. I understand if you dont want to be friends anymor- yoi" you cut Marco off for once and say

"Its not your fault either your brothers an asshole! I dont wanna stop being friends I like you Marco" you blabber out as you readjust yourself and sniffle your tears seemingly have stopped as you sit up.

"Thank you for letting me cry it out" you say as you both sit there.

"I like you too (n) probably more than I should. And your very welcome. Yoi" You hear Marco whisper looking at the table in front of you both.

"Huh? What do you mean Marco?" You question him. He blushes fidgeting a bit.

"Nows probably the worst time for this but, I mean I like like you (N). I have for a while now, and my brother could tell thats why he went after you... Yoi" He finishes saying as he blushes more looking into your eyes. You completely stopped crying before he said that. You look at him thinking

'I cant believe he likes me'

"Well say something please Yoi" Marcos blush deepens as he fidgets more uncomfortably.

"I like like you too Marco" you managed to say as he looks shocked.

"God woman your so hard to read sometimes. Yoi" he sighs loudly seemingly relieved.

"Here let me make us some food while we talk." You stand going to your kitchen in your tiny apartment. You prepare ingredients for sushi as you have fresh salmon and tuna.

"Tuna or salmon?" You ask him.

"Hm salmon please Yoi" he replys politely.

"Oh thats right your brother was going on and on about something that now makes sense" you say as you cut cucumber. What you said must have peaked his intrest as he asks

"What all did he say? Yoi"

"<I want to take that happy smile off Marcos face starting with you. I lost my job due to malpractice so what? Hes always first at everything! Ever since we were children! Hes always gotten the best everything while I was cast aside!> Thats what he told me drunkenly." You repeat what Juzo told you to Marco.

"Id prefer if you just called him by name not my brother. Hes got a screw loose all right. Again im so sorry. Yoi" Marco says as you blush and look at Marco whose looking at you.

"I didnt realize before that you liked me!" You say somewhat loudly blazing across what Marco had said. As you roll the sushi and top the two rolls what he asks next cetches you off gaurd completely.

"I know this isnt the right time but I wont have the balls to ask any other time. (N) will you do me the honor of being my girlfriend please? Yoi" Marco looks at you as your looking at him. You finish dinner thinking to yourself and place everything on the table. With a blushing Marco fidgeting with your couch the entire time. Then you speak.

"What about the hospital policies?" You ask as you go to look in your fridge for drinks. Marco seems to understand your hesitation and replies.

"As long at theres no PDA or going over the line at work we would be fine. After all Sojis wife is a doctor and Sojis still a practitioner nurse and they make it work. Yoi"

"Sorry theres only water and Dr. Pepper here" You ask in a statement.

"Dr. Pepper is fine thanks Yoi" he says as you grab two D.Ps and walk back around the table setting the drinks down.

"But Sojis wife works at Taizo so they dont even see eachother. Do you think we would really be okay Marco?" Before eating or drinking Marco replys with a chuckle.

"Yes it would be fine just act normal silly Yoi" you both open your cans of Dr.Pepper.

"So would you please become my girlfriend miss (N)? Yoi" he reiterated. As you ponder you finally reply

"As long as we wont get in trouble. I'd love to be your girlfriend Marco" you stare into his eyes smiling. He grows a gaint smile then hugs you under your arms as you hug around his neck smelling his scent it was musky and clean. You brush a hand through his hair as he says

"Hmm feels good Yoi" after a soild couple minutes he lets you go.

"I promise to treat your heart with the upmost care, doctors honor Yoi" he says and kisses your forehead making you blush deep red at the realization. He chuckles and says

"Itadakimasu Yoi"

"Itadakimasu" you say also as you turn on the TV to Uno Piece, and you both eat and drink. After finishing you clean up.

"Thank you very much (n) it was delicious Yoi" Marco says with a huge smile on his face.

"Oh dont you have to tell your family what happened tonight?" You ask him. He looks at you displeased but answers.

"Yea ill have to do it tomorrow. Unless Juzo allready called to complain to them drunkenly but they know im always right so its fine whenever I call. Cant believe he lost his job though cant imagine what for if hes willing to taze you Yoi"

"How are you doing by the way? We sort have gotten side tracked Yoi"

"Well im glad we got side tracked otherwise I would have never known that you liked me hehe" you giggle as he pets your head and you sit there taking it then lean on him cuddling some what. He wraps his left arm around you as you wrap your arms back around his waist and lean your head on his chest watching TV.

"This is-"

"Nice? Yoi" Marco adds cutting you off blushing deep red but so are you.

"Yea it is nice" you agree feeling slightly off about cuddleing with your superior but loving having someone to hold especially your crush.

"I have to get going in a couple hours Yoi" he says as hes rubbing your shoulder with his thumb. You get up and say

"I have to use the bathroom ill be back" he replys

"All right Yoi" he removes his arm from your side.

~Marcos POV~

Once you heard the bathroom click you looked at the prescriptions on the table in front of you where you had just ate.

'Hmm Clindamycin and Rifampin heavy antibiotics at 300mg, Vraylar 4.5mgs for MDD Major Depressive disorder or bi polar one, oh shit shes done' you try and hurry and put back the bottles but notice you put them back wrong.

'Will she notice?' *gulp*

'Thats what I get for being snoopy.' You think as you hear footsteps.

~(N) POV~

You walk back into the living room and immediately notice the prescriptions out of order. You giggle slightly and he looks at you about to say something but you cut him off.

"Shh.. what do you want to know my dear boyfriend?" You blush at the thought and he blushes hes been caught.

"I was just worried about your health seeing so many bottles." He admits.

You laugh and sit down next to him.

"How many did you get through?" You ask.

"Two...." he winces looking at your facial expressions.

"Okay well next ones Diazepam 5mg four daily for anxiety, next ones Trazodone 100mg once every night for sleep, next is Bupropion XL 150mg for depression once a day, then theres birth control which ive been on for years. The antibiotics are for Hidradenitis Suppurativa a disease which can eat away at skin and muscles and makes holes in the skin and muscles it has active and dormat phases. Its in dormat phase right now and its non passable. Then I have Fibromyalgia, major Depressive disorder, Bi polar type two, and an anxiety disorder. Im allergic to penicillin and extremely allergic to ants ill get anaphylaxis shock. *big breath in* does that satisfy your curiosity big bird?" You smile at him. And he looks shocked.

"Ill admit ive never gotten this far with a woman before Juzo always scared them off but your different, your strong willed (N) Yoi" he admits.

"Awee thanks? Soo.. is this your way of saying your a virgin?" You question poking a tad fun of him.

"Virgin unfortunately no I wished id saved myself for that right person, but I do have experience because of it all, so its bittersweet Yoi" Marco.

"Well were in the same boat there big bird" you say as he looks at your wall clock.

"Its all ready that time? It doesnt even feel like we did much well I mean besides what all happened. Youll probably get a call tomorrow knowing my family, about the restraining order. Theyll probably disown him this time. Yoi" he says.

"Well I should get going my sweet little bird Yoi" he says as you look up at him sitting up all the way as he was slouched down, you both were nose to nose. Hot breath, racing hearts, he closed the distance, as your lips met his, and bliss followed. Him cupping your cheek you wrap your arms around his neck your hand flowing through his hair. Intertwining tounges, making out you flick your tounge bar around his tounge making him very very softly moan as you softly moan as well. Breaking for air both huffing slightly cherry red covering both your faces.

"Do you have to go?" You whisper to him face inches from his.

"I know I should go but I really dont want to Yoi" he says holding your cheek as you pet his hair.

"You could stay if you wanted and leave in the morning? Its really however you feel" You gauging how he feels.

"Well what do you want? I dont mind whenever. But I want to go at your pace......Your scent is intoxicating (N)... Yoi" Marco seems conflicted as tonight was very eventful. Still in the same position you go in for the killer kiss leaning into him as he reciprocates. He slides your legs over his lap feeling his bulge as he picks you up bridal style and breaks for air.

"Wheres your room? Yoi" he asks huskily.

"Across from the bathroom over there that closed door careful of the door frame" he walked you into you neat room that was decorted with anime merch and a king sized lust red sheets bed. He gently tosses you on the bed as you both start discarding articles of clothing between kisses once in your bra and panties and him in his boxers your blush darkened as he looks like a greek statue. You take down his boxers to reveal a huge erection for you he leans over he a bit to undo your bra with one hand which was a turn on.

"Oh a tounge bar and nipple piercings and a navel your full of surprises (n) Yoi" he says in his husky voice.

"Ill show you a surprise" you say as Marco raises an eybrow. You stoop where his cock is an give it a kiss as you lead him to switch with you.

"Let me treat you good" you say as he lays down on your temper pedic mattress. As you gently grab with both hands his cock you rim lick his tip slowly as he gives a soft moan.

"When was your last time Marco?" You question then plunge his tip into your mouth slowly at first as he moans and answer's

"It was over ten years ago (n)" he struggles to stay quiet. You bob your head in and out a bit and swirl your tounge bar in the crevasse of his mushroom head

"How ah long for you? Yoi" he asks stifling moans. You take a breath to say

"Same for me but our good doctor deserves a good time" you say as you go back to slideing in and not all the way out then in again using your tounge bar to rib the bottom of his cock in and semi-out causing him to grip the sheets saying

"Fuckkk (n) your so good at that ahh Yoi" he moans out as you just keep going deeper and deeper ribbing the bottom of his cock starting to hum as well. He looks down at you and makes eye contact to which you speed up. Humming making him huff alot. You start deep throating him making him moan your name.

"Ahh yesss (N)! This has to be a dream!" Marco moans loudly. You go at it for less than thirty minutes then he yells.

"(N) you-r gonna ma-ke me cum! Yoi"

"(N) you do-nt hav-e t-o do t-his Yoi" he protests but you just mumble loudly while sucking him off causing him to grab the sheets you could tell he was struggling to not cum so you took it up a notch and heard him yell

"(N) im gonna cum ahh!!! Yoi!" You kept your pace. More thrusts and

"(N) I ca-nt ta-ke it any-more ahhh im cumming!!!" He yells as you keep thrusting your head swallowing his cum down your throat he moans

"Ahh yess!!!Yoi!!" As you keep thrusting through his sex high then slowly come to a stop, he moans your name.

"(Nnn) Yoi" hes huffing and puffing as you get off your knees staring at him smirking. Him a mess trying to collect himself.

"What was that about being experienced?" You chimed.

"Well I certainly wasnt expecting that Yoi" he huffs as he gets up grabs your shoulders and says

"Thank you very much for that but now its your turn (N) on the bed now" he says in an authoritative voice as you roll onto the bed he slips your panties off and throws them on the floor as he gets on his knees now.

"What are yo- Marco!" He goes down spreads your legs then starts sucking using his tounge to go through your folds making you moan

"Marco!" He seemed pleased by your sounds

"Ahh that feels so good ahh!!" He goes to your button of your clit and swirls around and around up and down sucking up your wet leaking juices as he sticks his tounge inside of you. And you cant help but moan a sultry moan

"Oh Marco!~" he retracks his tounge as you hear a slurping noise then one of his fingers enter you smoothly as he sucks around his finger thats slowly pumping into and out of you.

"Big bird!!~ That feels so good~" you moan loudly as he adds a second degit you gasp as he sucks and now plays with your clits button and pumps in and out. Your legs start to twitch wanting to close but he uses his elbows to push them apart. Adding a third degit you could feel yourself welling up with that feeling deep down

"Ahh Marco your gonna make me cum!!!" You yell as he flicks his tounge, and pumps curving his fingers thrusting into your natural ridges making you huff and moan his name all red in the face gripping the sheets

"MarcOO!!!!~~" some more thrust later and

"Ma-rco!! Im cum-ming!!! Ahh!!!" He kept it up through your sex high sucking your new juices that were leaking out as he removed his fingers and stuck his tounge back in making you cry out

"Ahhhh!!! Yesss!!! Marco!!!!"

Huffing loudly he slows down to a stop. Wiping his face he crawls ontop of you kissing you fiercely as your back arches your breasts touching his abs and chest. Kissing him back just as fierce even nipping at his tounge both of you moaning as he places his cock at your entrance. He slides it up and down getting his dick wet again while pumping precum again. This time not letting you break for air so you had to breath through your nose he slowly inserts the tip of his cock into you. He raised your legs around his pelvis pulling your whole body closer as he nips your tounge he slowly thrusts in and not all the way out then back in as you both moan through makingout. While he pumps into you, he tries to find your g spot as he hits your cervix making you moan more. Finally breaking for actual air as now hes thrusting making you both huff for air

"Ahh!!! Marco!!!! Yess!!!! Oh god!! Dont stop!!!"

"Looks like ive found your g spot (n) and your mine now! say it! Yoi" he moans in an authoritative sexy way.

"Yes sir!! Marco!! Im yours!!! only yours!!!"

"Ahh!!!(N) your soo tight fuck! Yoi" Marco curses and moans. He bent his elbows down in pushup position and started sucking on your nipple rings making you moan even more apparently turning him on even more as his dick twiches inside of you. You snake your arms around his neck and run your hands through his hair.

"Fuck yes!!! MARCO!! You know your mine too!! Ahh fuckkk!!!" You could feel him smiling while sucking on your other nipple ring playing with it as he pounds your g spot making you see stars. Making you into a babbling mess.

"Mar-cOo!!!!~" you manage to get out.

"Your gon-na ma-ke me cu-mmm fuckkk!!!" He stops playing with your nipples then asked

"Your gonna make me cum too (n)!!! Where should I cum?!! Yoi!!" He moans out

"Cum? Cum in me Marco!" He looks shocked but doesnt question it since you are on birth control.

"I cant ho-ld it any-more Mar-cOO!!!"

"Im gonna cum too my little bird!!! Cum with me now!! Yoi" he yells as you let your body constrict his cock

"Im cumming Marco!!!" You moan out

"Im cumming too (N)!!! Yoi" moaning he keeps thrusting through both of your sex highs making you drool a little and see speckles. Clutching around his neck you feel his hot cum fill you up.

"Ahh!! Im filling you up (N) Yoi" you feel his sweat drip onto you as you perspire. Your walls constrict around his cock forceing more cum into you.

'Damn he has such big loads ahhh!!! Yes!!!' You think.

"Aghh!! God yess!!! You feel so fucking good! (N)!! Yoi" he semi yells/grunts as he slowly comes to a stop. Both of you huffing but looking into eachothers eyes smiling. Taking at least five minutes to cetch his breath he hovers over you and nuzzles your neck kissing and nipping at it softly as you gently moan. After youve both calmed down he says

"Hang on to me Yoi" you obey and tighten your grip around his neck and tighten your twitching legs as he picks you up by your thighs effortlessly due to his muscles. Goes into the bathroom you turn the lightswitch on. He steps into the shower with you holding you with one arm and he turns on the water then stands up supporting your back.

"Im gonna pull out now (N) Yoi"

You nod and say

"Okay im ready cutie~" saying making him blush slightly as he held onto both your thighs and gently pulled you away from himself.

"Ahh god your so big Marco" as he slides himself all the way out you gasp as he sets you down but you hang on to his waist, legs still twitching quite a bit and shaking like a newly born deer. He chuckles and says

"Looks like I did a good job Yoi" as your both looking down you see mainly his cum come out of you. He soaps you and him up and reaches down to clean your pussy for you, him inserting a finger with soap swirling it around then letting the water clean you both off. He holds you close until you can stand which was until the water went cold. You turned the water off then grabbed a towel.

"Let me get another towel" you say as he squeezes the water out of his hair in the shower. You find the biggest fluffy towel you have

"Here ya go" you say to him as he gladly takes it and starts drying off. After you both are dry you both find your clothes and pick them up he puts on his boxers as you change panties.

"Make sure to set your alarm for earlier" you say to Marco who is allready on it.

"You too (N) Yoi" he says with a wide smile and lidded eyes. As you both set your alarms he picks you up and lays you in the bed. You handing your phone to him and him putting it on the charger.

"No put yours on the charger you need it more than me for tomorrow youve got patients to see. Cant have a dead battery. Ill bring an extra cord for mine"

"Okay thank you (N) Yoi" he swaps the phones and puts his on the charger. He puts his glasses on your nightstand.

"Allright come here im cuddle deprived Yoi" he says making you giggle as he slips into your bed with you slipping his right arms under your head while pulling up the sheets and comforter. He wraps his left arm around your waist and pulls you close to him. You wrap your right arm around his muscular waist.

"Goodnight my boyfriend hehe" you giggle as he kisses you and says

"Goodnight my girlfriend. Ill always keep you safe Yoi" he says. Listening to his heartbeat and breathing lulled you to sleep.

~In The Morning~

*ring ring ring ring* you open your eyes to see Marco in your bed. Then remember what happened last night and blush deep red. You realize his phone alarm is going off but he looks so peaceful sleeping. You untangle your right arm from his and brush your hand through his hair

'So hes a heavy sleeper or maybe its just because he did a lot of <work> last night hehe' you think as your snapped from your thoughts he stirs.

"Marco~ Marco~" you cup his cheek with you hand and start kissing his face.

"Marco~ Wakey Wakey~" so you kiss his neck and nip at it as he stirs.

"(N)... Yoi" you giggle as he mumbles in his sleep. So you lick his neck. He stirs slowly waking up.

"...(n).. that... tickles..." he mumbles as you gently shake him.

"Marco its time to wake up" saying as you kiss his neck and he finally opens an eye. He breathes heavy then yawns. He opens his eyes rubbing them he pulls you onto his chest your pierced breasts touching him. He looks at you as you smile at him.

"Hello there boyfriend remember what happened last night?" He blushes deep red and then seems to think then says

"Yes I do now, I thought it was all a dream Yoi" you look down at his morning wood and say

"I could tell hehe" giggling he says

"Oh well its there now Yoi" suddenly he must have heard his alarm as he untangles with you and swipes his phone inputting a code then turning off the alarm. He picks up his glasses and puts them on then gives your forehead a kiss and slides out of bed.

"I have to get going. Have to go home and change so no ones suspicious. Yoi" he says as he puts on his pants and v neck shirt and socks. You get out of bed and lean up to him as he notices he leans down cupping your cheek kissing you. Breaking for air you say

"Thank you for everything Marco" he smiles and embraces you in a gentle yet close hug.

"Anytime my sweet dear girlfriend (N)" he says as he lets you go but flicks your pierced nipple upwards causing you to gasp as he chuckles. You got to your bathroom real quick to do the necessities then come out.

"Sounds just as sweet as last night. Walk out your dear boyfriend? Yoi" he asks as you are already putting on your uniform, lanyard and socks on. And follow him as his coat is flipped over hanging from his arm. He puts his phone and keys in his pocket as you follow him out putting your phone in your pocket grabbing your apartment keys and charging cord, following him out of your apartment locking it then walking to his car. In the early rays of Japan.

"Thanks for rushing over last night my hero" you say as he holds your hand to his car which was about forty feet from your apartment.

"Of course my sweet little bird Yoi" he hugs you close then leans down and kisses you gently cupping your cheek.

"Ill see you at work my little bird Yoi" he says with a huge smile and pats your head.

"Okay please drive safe" you hug him one last time as he gets in his car its definitely a nice car like a doctor could afford. *rev rev* he rolls down his window and says

"Its bittersweet but I have the day after today off what about you? Yoi" he asks as his car warms up.

"Hmm yea I have that day off too" you reply and he says

"Lets go do something together Ill pick you up we can talk more about it after work that day. Yoi" he replys

"Yay okay cutie! hehe sleepover?" You ask and he replys

"Ill bring spare clothes this time Yoi" he chuckles and says

"I really have to go now see you later my little bird remember act normal. Yoi" and you nod and wave as he pulls out of the parking lot and you walk to the station.

~At Work At Beginning Of Break~

"Oh I know that look, Marco who is it?" You over hear the receptionist ask and he replied

"Well she certainly is someone but not telling sorry Yoi" you see Marco smile extra wide.

"Well whoever she is has cast a spell on our favorite doctor your glowing today keep up the good work" you overhear and blush at their conversation then images of you and Marco doing the naughty arise from last night making you blush even more.

*ring ring ring ring* *click* you pick up your phone.

"Hello?"

<hello is this (N)(L)? Were with the Tokyo police department>

"This is her"

<We have received your granted permanent restraining order against Juzo Phoenix. We were calling to let you know and to transfer the funds of --------¥>

You face must have shown the shock because Marco was walking to break and noticed but didnt say anything.

<Hello miss (N)??>

"Yes.. ill transfer the funds now, card number ----,----,---- security code --- name date expiration"

<Your approved have a great rest of your day miss (N)> *Click*

You slowly walk to Marcos table.

"--------¥ to do that restraining order and press charges" you whisper to Marco whose sitting at your guys table as you grab an iced coffee and sit across from him.

"Did that put you out now? Yoi" he asks as he sips his coffee.

"Yea.. I always save enough for an EpiPen just in case but I guess its fine I havent needed one for years it should be fine." You nervously laugh. He didnt look too happy to hear it but he gave a small smile.

"Im sure itll be fine you will save up the money again. And if it happens ill pay for it Yoi" Marco says as he almost grabs your hand but you retract it quickly and he does the same and sips his coffee.

"Well youve already saved my life more than once I owe you so much Marco."

"Its okay let others help you every once in a while Yoi" and with that your breaks ended.

"Itll be okay (N) keep your head up Yoi" Marco says as he leaves to go to more patients and you go back to work.

~Tomorrow After Work~

"Everyone else from our shift has left, are you ready now? Yoi" Marco says as you both walk out of Kiba Hospital.

"Heck yea im ready! Thisll be a great sleepover!" You somewhat yell to him as you jump up and down a bit making him chuckle.

"Here get in Yoi" he *beeps* the car unlocking it as you get in. He takes off his doctors coat and places it in the trunk. Then gets in the drivers seat.

"Im feeling pizza what about you? Yoi" he says and you just say

"I can make dinner"

"But I dont want you to have to make dinner babe Yoi" Marco says sweetly.

"Its your money I dont care what we eat to be honest" you reply kindly and smile.

"Okay so pizza it is!" He waits to turn on the car as he makes the pizza call

"Yes one large pineapple and pepperoni pizza for pick up for Marco Phoenix <---> yes ive got the card right here. -----------, security code --- month day and were good thanks see you soon" *click* Then he turns on the car and pulls out of his doctors spot then drives off about ten to fifteen minutes later you both get to the pizza place as he says

"Wait here my little bird im going to lock it Yoi" he says as you retort

"Yes sir! Hehe" you giggle which makes him smile. You wait patiently then you spy him return with the pizza and *beep beep* opens the car and car door, handing you the pizza and you take it hovering it over your thighs as he got in. Once driving again you stare out the window of the car as Marco still needs google maps to get to your place.

"Your quiet what happened? I thought you were excited? Yoi" you hear Marco ask. Turning your attention to him you say

"I am, but outside is so pretty with the lights when I dont have to take the train. It must be nice to have a car."

"Well it can be nice to have a car but you have to have a place to park it and the price of insurance is through the roof" He explains as he turns into your carpark and parks in your apartment number. After gathering your key, and his spare clothes from the trunk you go up to your apartment and open it turning on the lights inside. You go to your small living room and make space for the pizza. Turning on the TV to the specific channel. As you go in your room to change, you feel arms around you behind you slip off your lanyard then your shirt and then your pants. Giggling you take off your pants with your feet and take out your wallet and charger from your pockets.

"If your trying to suduce me it must wait hehe the Uno Piece movie is about to start Marco you devil" he takes off his shirt and folds it placing it on your desk taking off his belt next placing it on his shirt as he just wears pants showing off his glorious abs and chest.

"Your right lets go Yoi" He says then you look at him like awee.

"Dont give me that look you chose your fate haha Yoi" he chuckles as he leaves the room to the living room and you put on a long shirt that curves around your ass. You follow Marco to the living room but remember you need drinks so you grab some Dr.Peppers and place them on the table. Then sit next to Marco on the couch as the movie starts and you both eat some of the pizza. During the movie you yawn loudly as you cuddle into Marcos bare chest.

"Awee is someone tired? Were only halfway through the movie. Yoi" you look up to him meeting his eyes and say

"Sorry big bird probably only cuddles tonight" he chuckles and replys by kissing your forehead.

"Thats perfectly fine by me (N) Yoi" both of you continue the movie and by the credits your asleep.

~Marcos POV~

You look to (n) whose asleep in your lap basically so you unwrap her hold on you and lay her gently on the couch as you clean up being the good boyfriend you are. After that you pick her up bridal style and go to her room and lay her in her bed. Getting off your pants folding them and placing them with the rest of your things. You slid into bed with her and intertwine yourself with her as she instinctively cuddles you back.

"Goodnight my love (N) Yoi" you say as you kiss her cheek and slowly fall asleep.

~The Next Morning (N) POV~

"You want me to meet your parents?" You say as you and Marco eat breakfast.

"More like they demand to meet you today, so there goes our plans Yoi" he says somewhat quietly.

"Oh right I have to get them presents I forgot its been so long ughhh so what do they like?"

"Well unless you have a half dollar thats the year 1960 from the USA he probably wont like you, he has a collecti-"

"And what if I have that coin?" You go to you room and dig out your old coins and grab it. Bringing it to Marco you hand it to him. His mouth is somewhat agape.

"Well I dont know what hell say now..but my mom always goes with whatever he says. My mom likes gold flowers so shes easy. Yoi"

"So what your saying is were fine?" You question.

"Yea ill help you pick out the flower well shit hes been looking for that coin for years to complete his collection I really dont know what hell say hes the strict one Yoi" Marco says as you both finish up breakfast he goes to use the bathroom and you decide what to wear. A nice length black dress with shoulders. You put on your bra and switch into the dress. Marco walks into your room dressed in his next day outfit. As he looks you up and down seeing how the dress forms to you.

"Too sexy Yoi" Marco says. As you turn around and say

"Excuse me?"

"You heard me Yoi" he chuckles.

"Im just messing with you babe haha your fine Yoi" he jokes as you puff out your cheeks and put your hands on your hips. He pokes your cheeks deflating them as you giggle.

"That tickles!" You laugh as he hugs you close now.

"So you never told me how your parents found out about me?" You question. He looks at you and says.

"Juzo did call them that night and told them id been seeing someone" he admits.

"Oh joy" you reply.

~At Marcos Parents House~

Marco drove you both here to his parents house as earlier he told them a time for today. Marco had taken you to get a present for his mother and helped pick it out but you refused to let him pay. Now your both at the front steps of his parents mansion.

"Just so you know I have no idea what theyll say" he whispers to you as you whisper back

"Great" and knock on the door. First to open was his mother it seems

"Why hello (N) and hello my wonderful boy Marco! Please come in." You obey and take off your shoes as you follow her to the tea room where his dad was sitting drinking. As you all get seated a maid comes and places tea in front of you.

"I uh got these gifts for you both. I do hope you enjoy them" you say as his father tchs at the sentence. First giving over a golden orchid to his mother which she didnt have.

"Oh my is beautiful thank you" then placing down in a square envelope the coin in front of his father. Cetching his fathers eye he opens it and his eyes widen.

"This is the half dollar 1960 coin thats alluded me for years my whered you find it?!" He asks as you reply.

"I have a coin collection as well it came from my collection sir" you say politely. His mother had grey hair and she was short while you could tell where Marco got his height from, his dad who had a white gaint mustache and fine white hair with a gaze like ice. After awhile of chatting they bring up the topic.

"So weve called you here today to discuss your relationship. It breaks your companies policy Marco and (N)." His mother talks then his father.

"But seeing as youve brought home such a lovely lady we have decided to give you six months to decide." You look to Marco who looks at you then his father.

"Six months for?" Marco questions.

"Why six months to determine if youll marry, to avoid a scandal at both your work." You both taken back by his words then his mother chimes in

"Your both not getting any younger either" you both nod then Marco says

"We havent even discussed that yet but we will later now haha" Marco chuckles sipping his tea. Nearing the end of the visit his father says.

"Well you both better think on it. Also we would need to meet your parents as well (N)." His father says to you as you reply

"Im afraid that wont be possible" you say and he asks

"Well why not child?"

"Everyone on my side is deceased." And his parents both say

"Our condolences we didnt know"

"It is fine. Thank you" you reply. They leave it at

"You have six months before our blessing expires. We hope you both have a good rest of your day" they say as everyone stands his father moving his IV drip to shake your hand. As you get into the car they wave you off.

"Well that went better than expected Yoi"

"I guess. Is your dad threatening you with the six months???" You question as Marco drives.

"No no its just the way he talks Yoi" Marco explains.

~One Month Later At The Company Dinner & Karaoke~

"Itadakimasu!" Everyone says as they dig into the feast presented. Everyone was merry drinking as you drank your Dp.Pepper there was only four of you who graduated and became nurses minus the two girls who had pranked you. You thanked god that Marco didnt drink besides socially hes been working on his second beer tonight slowly. Hes your ride home along for Sui and Kiwi though they live in the city your the last drop off but little does everyone know the good doctor isnt going home tonight. Everyone talks about how the year went for them.

"Id put a gold star for every one of you Yoi" Marco says loud enough for everyone to hear which makes Kiwi go

"Awee we couldnt have done all this with out the best doctor cheers for Marco!" Everyone including you cheers

"To Marco Phoenix!" Sui and Kiwi drank and are tipsy while Soji is getting drunk slowly. Soon everyone is finished eating and drinking at the restaurant and move on to Karaoke which is right across the street.

~At The Karaoke Bar~

At this point Soji would have to call a Uber or Lyft just to get home as he had one too many and Kiwi was trying to get him to drink water. At this point everyone including Marco had sung a song badly but hell they sang. Marco was so far the best singer but that was probably because he held his liquor very well.

"(N)! (N)! (N)! Your next!" Everyone cheers in unison.

Being peer pressured into singing you pick the song Paradisio - Bailando and when you start singing everyones mouths drop as you sing every beat, high and low note perfectly in another language.

Then you pick Sweet Dreams - Eurythmics as you get out the keyboard and sing everyone is clapping and cheering you on.

"I got next Yoi" Marco says as your song ends he picks I Was Made For Lovin' - KISS as he looks at you, you pick up a guitar and play while he sings then it turned into both of you singing into everyone singing the song. At a break Soji is drunk he says

"You and (N) look good together Marco why not get together?" He must have thought he was being quiet but the whole room heard.

"Yea you guys are like so close we wont tell" Kiwi says tipsy.

You just giggle but stop as Marco says

"We are already dating haha Yoi" he admits as you almost spat out your drink.

"Wahhhh!!!!!" The whole room goes.

"When did this start?!" Sui yells a bit tipsy as well.

"Recently Yoi" he blushes making you blush too.

"This is a secret and it stays here. I mean it for everyone! Yoi" Marco says authoritatively.

"We wont tell Marco and (N)" Sui, Kiwi, and Soji say all under the influence.

"You both are so cute together! Im so happy for you both!" Sui yells hugging you, you almost spilling your drink.

"My drink! Sui your so tipsy!" You say laughing as Marco smiles wide at you both.

"You both kept us out of the loop so well, your like spys" Kiwi says slurring her words.

"Hey (N) why dont you have a drink too unless oh god are you pregnant?!" He yells drunk. You turn red as a tomato and yell.

"I am not! God!"

"Shes allergic to alcohol! Yoi" Marco yells at Soji as Soji yells back

"Oh sorry!!" Soji yells.

"I think its time we all called it a night everyone Yoi" Marco says.

"Aweee!!!! One more song! One more song! You and (N)!" Everyone yells as now they all realize they should drink water or have a terrible hangover tomorrow.

"(N) our audience awaits Yoi" Marco chuckles as he offers his hand out to you. You take his hand and get on a guitar. Marco chooses Rebal Yell - Billy Idol as you both sing you play the guitar as his husky voice is perfect for Billys comparison. After the song Marco goes and pays for everything.

"So tell us (N) how'd it happen?" The three of them looked to you as you nervously giggle at your coworkers.

"His brother caused me trouble at my apartment. Marco came right in time to save me. Then he asked me out in my apartment. But you guys better not tell, you could get him in trouble!" You yelled the last part.

"We promise!" Everyone says either tipsy or drunk.

~Four Months Later~

You and Marco have been going steady. He said I love you first at your place. You still have yet to go over to his place. But you didnt mind for now.

~One Month Later~

Its been five months now his birthday is this month which you gave him a super limited enamel pin for his lanyard. Now you both were at work about to hit break.

~At Break At Work~

You got there first grabbing a iced coffee and sitting down, you notice someone left their food on the table so you just ignore it and sip your coffee as Marco comes round the corner grabs a coffee too and sits across from you. Your both wrapped up in a conversation as you begin to itch all over your right leg and arm. Looking down you see ants crawling all over you as you jolt up and start to panic feeling your throat swell as you tried to wipe them off. Marco stands immediately going to the receptionist and slapping his card down saying

"Im paying for and EpiPen hurry! Yoi" he yells as he looks back at you, whose on the floor now. Gasping for breath as your throat swells completely shut and you pass out. After what felt like an eternity you awake in a hospital bed in a gown. Your bpm machine spikes as you remember what had happened then slows as you realize your alive. You hear a familiar voice as you sit up

"Ah (N) your awake now thank god Yoi" you hear your boyfriend say as he stepped into your curtain room and asks

"How are you feeling? I had Sui and Kiwi give you a shower to get all the ants off and change you. Yoi" you just look at him like the fuck.

"Apparently the custodian for our section called off today and hince is why their was food left over. I already talked to the guy who left the food out Yoi" you giggle and he raises an eyebrow.

"Meaning you chewed him out?" You question as Marco replys with a chuckle and nods.

"Well im assuming you payed for the EpiPen cause I couldnt?" You quizzically ask and he nods.

"Cant have one of my nurses dieing on me haha at least your in the right place (N) Yoi" he chuckles and smiles probably that your alive.

"So when can I get discharged? I still have to work" you say as he hands you paperwork you look it over and say

"I was out almost my whole shift?! Ugh okay" you sign and hand him back the papers. He hands you a bag of your clothes.

"I had them washed and dried, ant free now Yoi" Marco says handing you the bag of clothes "Ill let you change now Yoi" he says and walks out of your curtain room into another room. You got changed and walked out of the room grabbing all your stuff then checking your clock out

'Kiwi probably clocked me out ill have to thank her' you think as you see her right now.

"Oh (N) I clocked you out since your had your attack. How are you feeling now?" She asks.

"Thanks a bunch im feeling okay now thanks to Marco i didnt die again haha" you laugh nervously.

"He would do it for any of his nurses I bet" she says and smiles and you nod

"Yea he would hes such a wonderful doctor. Well my shift just ended I might as well go home now." You say as she nods.

"Make sure to drinks lots of water and get plenty of rest" she says

"I will thank you!" You say as you go to the vending machine the ants were cleaned up now. You decided

'Might as well grab one for the road you inputted your ¥ and out pops an iced coffee. You sit at the other table as you sip your coffee. Then pops Marco from behind the wall.

"(N)? I thought you went home? Yoi"

"Another near death experience kinda makes ya wanna take it slow. I see the ants are cleaned up. That your doing too?" He chuckles lightly and replys

"Yes you caught me I had a custodian clean them up. Im off work now too if you want a ride home. Yoi" Marco says softly as you nod.

"That would be nice thanks Marco" you say as you finish your coffee and throw it away.

~Half A Month Later~

Marco wants to take you out on a date for your and his day off. You were expecting him to propose but you were still unsure if he would even though his parents deadline was coming up.

~At The Dinner Date~

It was set outside. He had driven you both there and the sun was setting as you got your food. You both had been chatting about Uno piece and maybe cosplaying together as you ate.

"Ah come on Marco youd be perfect as him and I could cosplay as her!" You giggle and he chuckles as you finish your food. Your wearing a red short dress and have your black heart shaped purse on your shoulder as Marco was dressed in black jeans and a blue v neck. Being full you were about to stand but Marco motioned for you to stay sitting. He gets up then down on one knee in front of the sushi bar outside in front cetching some eyes but he was only looking at you. He pulls out a small black box and opens it addressing you

"(N)(L) would you do me the honor of being my wife Ms. (N) Phoenix? Yoi" he asks with a gulp and a blush looking into your eyes as you stare into his. You dont even look at the ring.

"Of course Id love that Marco!" you say and he seems relieved and takes the ring and places it onto your finger.

"It fits perfectly" you say as you raise and eyebrow at Marco while people clap about you both.

He stands and pays for the food as you stand and now examine the ring its a gold metal with a sapphire heart shaped ring. You step on your tippy toes to kiss him as he leans down to kiss you.

"I swear I didnt measure your finger in your sleep haha" he chuckles and you laugh.

"I dont mind silly" you hold his hand with your ringed finger.

"Oh that reminds me when will i ever get to see your home its been awhile and youve only been to mine" you question.

"Okay well hear me out. Yoi" he says as you nod. He stops at the car and unlocks it for you both. As you both get in he says

"Remember I said my last one night stand was over ten years ago?" You nod confused.

"Well she was a stalker it turns out and moved right next door to me haha Yoi" he chuckles scratching the back of his head.

"Oh is that all? I know how to deal with stalkers dont worry babe" You say nonchalantly.

"Thats why youve never invited me over before?" You ask.

"Shes out there, scared off many girls." He says

"Well im not a girl now am I?" You say sternly.

"Your my woman thats what Yoi" he says happily.

"You should probably call your mom or dad Marco" you state as he gets out his phone.

*ring ring* *click speaker*

<Hello my sweet boy Marco whatsup?>

"Hi mom just wanted to let you know she said yes!" Marco smiles from ear to ear as his mom replys

<Oh wow! Thats great news see I told you, you would find someone!>

"Anyways I have to go now but just wanted to let you both know" he says.

<Alright honey have a good rest of your day and say hi to (N) for me> *click*

"Were close by, do you want to see where I live? Yoi" he asks as you nod like yea duh.

"I have to warn you she comes out every time I get home or leave. Yoi" he says as you just nod as he drives to his place.

"Have you told her about me at all?" You question.

"Of course babe she doesnt listen" he says as you respond.

"Maybe its cause youve never brought me round hmmm I wonder" you say sarcastically.

"Okay I deserve that one Yoi" he says while driving.

"Has she ever been inside your apartment?" You question.

"No this was before I moved there I havent had anyone in this apartment well besides you now Yoi" he responds. Then he comes to a stop at a gated complex with a gaurd. The gaurd comes up to the window as Marco rolls down the window and has his ID ready the gaurd reads the ID and says

"Welcome home Mr. Phoenix and who is this with you?" The gaurd asks.

"This is (N)(L) my fiance put her on the permanent list please Yoi"

"Yes sir done have a good day"

"You too Yoi" Marco says as the gaurd opens the gate and Marco parks in his apartment number. You both get out and he comes round and intertwines his hand in yours guiding you up to the elevator third floor him walking past the second door quickly to the third door getting his key out then you both hear a door open and a girl walk out looking at you both.

"Oh Marco whose this? Ive never seen her before." The mid to late thirties looking girl asks trying to act nice but trying to get under your skin luckily you have thick skin.

As you let go of Marcos hand you walk up to her and reach your hand out to shake it as she shakes your ringed hand you look her directly in her eyes.

"Hello miss one night stand im (N) his fiance. So glad to finally meet you. I hope well get along since ill be seeing more of you from now on" you say in a smile hearing a *click* to Marcos door you and Marco see her mouth drop as you turn around and say

"Oh I hope we wont disturb you too much bye now" you make sure to wave with your ringed hand so she knows your not bluffing and smile. Then you follow Marco into his apartment and he shuts the door not even acknowledging her.

"Damn babe you can hold your own, that was harsh Yoi" he says as you shrug

"Dont want stalkers, be harsh"

"Let me guess your too sweet to be harsh with girls or women?" You question him.

And he shrugs and nods. You get out your phone and call a contact as Marco looks at you curiously.

"Hey Miko its (N). Im gonna call in that favor you owe me. Haha yea its been awhile yea lets go out when im free and cetch up. Haha actually im engaged now. To who?" You look over to Marco who gives you a thumbs up to say who.

"Uh do you know a Marco Phoenix? Yea the number one doctor at Kiba hospital. But ill be a doctor one day too you know. I hope your doing well Haha yea okay ill talk to you later. Bye" seemingly curious Marco asks

"Who was that ive never heard you say a Miko before"

"You may be a fantastic doctor Marco but I have friends in high places. Miko is one of my long term friends we made a bet and I won he always says never make a bet with me unless you know you can win because I always win. Anyways Miko is one of the supreme judges of Japan." His jaw drops and he asks

"You mean THE Miko Shiba like who you always see on the news? Yoi" and you nod

"The very same dear I can clear up your stalker problem real quick. Just give me evidence or we can collect evidence."

~The Court Hearing~

You had explained the entire situation to Miko so you had been recording everytime you went to Marcos place while planning the wedding with his mother and father and moving into Marcos place which wasnt hard but the more stuff you brought over the more aggravated she became which was good for your case. She had even threatened to kill you and make it look like you fell. Which was very good for your case. You had also expressed to Miko that privacy is absolutely necessary.

"All rise! For Miko Shiba"

"I will announce the verdict" Miko announces

"On counts of stalking and harassment you are guilty. On counts of death threats against (N) (L) and Marco Phoenix you are guilty. (N)(L) and Marco Phoenix I hearby grant you restraining orders against her. Also she must vacate her place of residence to elsewhere effective immediately. I will be keeping up with this case so make sure to follow the rules all of you court dismissed." Miko finishes as you and Marco smile and she starts yelling about how youll never love him like her. Miko had her forcefully removed from court and sentenced to jail time for disrupting court even though it was over. You had invited Miko to the wedding which he accepted.

~The Wedding~

Kiwi and Sui were your bridemaids while Soji and another doctor you didnt know was Marcos groomsmen. On your side we dignified judges and officals you had made friends with over the years who were mingling and networking while Marcos side was other doctors and friends he had made over the years.

As the ceremony began Sui offered to walk you down the isle.

"Are you ready?! The music has allready begun dont make him wait!" Sui yells at you as you spray mint in your mouth.

"Okay im ready now lets go" you hook arms with her then begin walking slowly down the isle and smile from ear to ear when you see Marco at the altar.

'Hes grinning so wide I cant wait to marry him' you think as everyone looks at you. As you reach the altar you break off with Sui and stand before Marco. The counselor starts talking and eventually gets to the parts.

"Do you Marco Phoenix take (N)(L) as your lawful wedded wife in sickness and in health?" The counselor asks.

"I do Yoi" Marco says a bit loudly.

"And do you (N)(L) take Marco Phoenix to be your lawful wedded husband in sickness and in health?"

"I do" you say somewhat loudly as well.

"The rings please" the counselor says as Kiwi brings out Marcos ring and Soji brings out your ring. You slide on Marcos ring as he slides on your ring.

"You may now kiss the bride" as you look at Marco he lifts your veil to see your beautiful eyes and you to see his handsome face as you kiss for two seconds then depart. Everyone cheers as the wedding reception starts and the cake cutting starts. You both hold hands as you cut two small pieces hook arms then eat a bite of cake and unlink. Then mingling together you hook your arm through his as you eventually talk to everyone. You sneek some tuna sushi as you snack on the food you split with Marco so you can talk to different people.

"Miko glad you could make it!" You shake hands and say

"Thanks for oweing me that favor haha you wanna bet again? Just kidding how are you and Ms. Shiba hello how are you?" You say as he replys

"Im glad we could be here ill admit when you said Marco Phoenix I double taked haha also no problem by the way that girl moved out to the country so no worries anymore for you both"

"Ive heard so much about you what an extraordinary woman you are going to become a doctor one day also like Mr. Phoenix" his wife says as you nod.

"Thank you both. And ahh I always wondered where she went. And yes Ms. Shiba im learning everything I can from Marco."

"Excuse me I have more guests to attend too." You excuse yourself and after talking to everyone you need too, you sit down and wait for the first dance. Your feet hurting somewhat. The dj is playing both your favorite songs as people sit waiting for the dance to start after mingling. You made sure the dj made a special thanks to Marcos parents for the event. Now the first dance is going to begin as Marco finds his way back to you you both take the stage and hold a pose hooked together as the music starts. Swirling you around and dancing together you both smile as everyone could tell you two belonged together. As the music stopped and you both finish your dance everyone claps. As the floor is free for others to dance on. Eventually Marco makes his way back to you and whispers in your ear

"Do you wanna get out of here and start the honeymoon? Yoi" you look at him

"Your parents paid a lot for this Marco but I know I have work the day after tomorrow." You say as he replies.

"Babe their both hammered they just hide it, im sure itll be fine Yoi" you look at him shocked like what and he nods as he takes your hand and you follow him to his car as you both get in. Both your phones and personal items are in the car. Your giggling like mad as he looks over to you chuckling.

"Hey we did everything and took pictures with nearly everyone. I think were allowed to ditch our own wedding at this point Yoi" he says as he buckles in and you do the same.

"Lets goo!!" You yell giggling as he drives off back to your apartment. Once there the guard greets you both.

"Ahh I see hello Mr. and Ms. Phoenix welcome home"

Marco had you added to the lease but he didnt make you have to pay for rent he just kept paying it. So you save a whole lot but it doesnt really matter since you joined bank account's. He also had another key made up for you to the apartment. He parks the car as you both grab your stuff and go to the elevator. Third floor third door no crazy stalker. You could feel his relief. So much so that he grabs your hand brings you in close outside your guys door and kisses you deeply. Him unlocking the door at the same time then breaking for air guiding you inside. Locking the door. You guys had sacrificed your honeymoon spot for everyone too attend the wedding so this was your honeymoon at your guys apartment but you both didnt care. He starts by undoing your tight wedding dress making it fall around your legs revealing white lingerie from your breasts to your waist to your legs to your feet.

"Wow your beautiful (N) just like always Ms. Phoenix Yoi" Marco says saving himself

"Thats right and your handsome just like always Mr. Phoenix" you reach up to kiss him as he leans down you slowly undress him starting with his bowtie then each button for his vest then his shirt and pants making out breathing hard him leading you to his king sized bed seeing rose petals everywhere on the floor and bed with them on the bed as well.

"What do you think? Yoi" he says as you kick off your shoes and he does the same. His lips meet yours as he checks your wetness. Breaking for air

"Dam you want me that bad huh my little bird Yoi" he whispers in your ear making your shiver. He softly pushes you on the bed as he rips your panties off of you uncliping the garter in the process. He crawls on top of you leaning down kissing your neck and playing with your breasts. He kisses then starts sucking on your breasts leaving hickey's making you moan

"Marco!"

"That was hot" you whisper in his ear nipping at his earlobe as he doesnt hesitate to go down on you as he abandons that quest for now and pushes your legs apart licking at your folds then your button staying on it as you pant and huff and moan his name

"Marco yes! That feels so good!!"

'Im so glad the second apartment is still vacant' you think as you moan loudly. His hands feeling up your white fishnet tights. Him shoving his tounge into your entrance tasting your juices flicking around making your legs twitch uncontrollably.

"Ahh Marco your gonna make me cum already!!!" You yell as he doesnt stop he firmly has your thighs spread wide with his hands forcing them open.

"Fuckkk!! Im cumming big bird!!!" Yelling he laps up your juices. With a lust in your groin and in your eyes you stare at him running a hand through his hair saying

"I got next ahh yess!" He pulls up and wipes his face as you push him onto the bed sitting on his legs you go down on him rimming the head of his gaint cock making him moan and his cock twitch dripping with precum as you swallow his tip ribbing down his shaft making him moan

"Fuckk yes (N) Yoi!" You suck as you salivate drooling somewhat but sucking it up and edging him on by thrusting then stopping then starting.

"Ah come on dont tease me not today Yoi!!" He yells as you pound your throat into his cock making him moan

"Ahh fuck yes just like that Yoi!!" Yelling he locks eyes with you as you start head banging his cock in your mouth then deep throating him humming and growling as you thrust your face into his cock harder and faster making him moan all kinds of sounds and gripping the sheets hard.

"Fuckkkk!! Yess! (N) Do it like that un huh un huh un huh!!! Yoi" keeping your pace you could feel him swell up as you face fucked his cock for what felt like awhile then he yells

"Fuckk I cant hold it your too good at that babe!!! Yoi" you speed up as you fill him release

"Shit im cumming little bird Yoi" he stares at you as you use one hand to pump his cock and swallow and the other hand to cradel his balls. You thrust through his sex high as he rips you from sucking him off to throwing you on the bed and making out with you tasting his sweet cum he flicks your tounge bar as he uses one hand to pump his cock and the other hand to insert a degit into your entrance making you moan but him stifling it with his tounge as he inserts a second degit quicker than usual he stretches you out and starts thrusting his fingers inside you while making out breathing hard through your noses you could feel his cock against your thigh as he drips precum again stiff as a board. He breaks for air as you both are red in the face as he drags your pussy to the edge of the bed he rolls you on your side and lifts one leg above his shoulder as he gets on his knees on the bed he places his cock at your entrance then slips the tip in making you moan loudly

"Ahh MarcoOO!! Your so big!!!" You yell as he thrusts in and not all the way out slowly filling you up your slick providing the perfect lube.

"Your not leaving this bed tonight Yoi" he says at you as you moan his name

"Yes sir Marco!! Fuckkk!!! I love you!!" You yell as you grip the sheets feeling him go deeper and deeper until he hit your wall, your cervix. Making you see speckles at this angle he had you at

"Its called the pretzel dip *huff huff*" he pounds you deeply as he picks up a great rhythm you follow his paceing as you grind with him feel his hand on your stomach feeling his cock inside you from the outside as he thrusts into you.

"Fuckk Marco!! Your gonna make me cum!!"

"Cum baby!! but im not stopping until you cant walk!! Yoi" he yells as he keeps his pacing huffing for air as he thrusting like a marathon.

"Fuckkk!! Marco im cumming!!" You yell almost screaming. You felt your walls constrict as you squeezed that part of your pussy that you had control over making him moan

"Fuckk!! (N) your so fucking tight!! Are you trying to get me to cum? Ahh!! You naughty woman you!! Yoi" he slaps your ass hard locking eyes with you as you moan

"Yes give it to me!!! Fuck me senseless!!! Im yours!!!" As he fucks you through your high you both huffing as your legs are twitching but he still thrusts. Once he knows your done cumming he says

"On all fours now!! Yoi" he pulls out as you get on all fours, legs shaking violently he stands then shoves his cock back in you as you get on all fours. Making you see stars moaning

"Ahhh yess!! MARCO!!! FUCKK!!!" As he thrusts back at his relentless pace for what seems like at least half an hour. You drool as he grabs your thighs slamming your pussy onto his cock relentlessly thrusting.

"AHHH!!!! Just like that!!!"

"Fuckkk!!! Your gonna make me cum again Marco!!!"

"I allready told you little bird cum!! Your not gonna be able to walk straight for the next couple days!!! Yoi" he yells still thrusting as you see spots in your vision.

"Big bird!!! Im cumming!!!!" Your pussy sucks in his cock again as you start twitching in your arms now too. He thrusts through your sex high as he pulls out then flips you over him grabbing your waist moving you up as he pushes your legs above his shoulders as he enters you at the same pace finding your g spot really easily you cry out

"Fuckkkk!!!!! Mar-CO!!! Your eyes lock onto his as he likes this angle you could tell since his cock was twitching a lot inside of you. You squeeze his cock with your pussy muscle as he continues to pound you.

"AH shit!! Im clo-se now!!! Yoi"

"Cu-m! In me!! Ma-rco!!!" You yell just begging him to cum in you.

"Pl-ease!!! Cum in me!!!" You yell as he continuously pounds you.

"Fuckkk! Im gonna cum (N)!!! Yoi"

"Cum with me!!! Im gonna cum too!!" You yell.

"Im cumming!!! Im filling you up my little bird Yoi"

"Ahhh!!!! You made me cumm!!" You felt his hot seed burst into your cervix as you both cum at the same time. Your walls clamp down on his cock as he continues to thrusts through both your sex highs. Pumping still he was fast at first then slows down and eventually comes to a stop. Huffing very hard as he lets go of your hands and slowly lets your legs down being very gentle with you after that fuck session. You huffing for air after fifteen minuts of just breathing he looks you in the eyes and asks

"How was that? Yoi" you whole body is twitching, everything is so sensitive.

"Un huh well im not walking anywhere" you say giggling as he pulls out slowly. With a pop cum immediately drips out of you as he admires his work of your whole body twitching. He gets up and grabs a whole tissue box as he wipes you up.

"Why can you stand and I cant?" You ask as he is the best doctor in the country.

"Try and sit up for me dear. And its because your insides have thousands if not millions of more nerve endings causing overstimulation. Yoi" he says as you sit up more cum flows out of you as he uses tissue to cetch it all. Once your not leaking anymore you plop back down still twitching as he cleans himself up. You manage to get under the covers as hes done he grabs both of your phones and checks the time.

"What a way to blow four hours well cant go back to the wedding haha Yoi" he chuckles as he slides into bed with you. You squirm your way over to him now cold. He pulls you to him, lets you rest your head on his chest, and intertwines your legs with his.

"I love you Ms. Phoenix Yoi" he says cupping your cheek kissing you as you giggle then retort

"I love you too Mr. Phoenix~"

-Happy End-

[paladin-official]

Also some some OC thoughts and questions for Hahns if you don’t mind. Np if you're still have to think about some of these since their still WIP c:

Do commanders have multiple Hahns serve under them like a band/circle of knights or just one or a few if they're more like specialists?

Do you think there are commanders that keep their Hahns off the field so they can be safe and close to them? If so, do you think there’d be any tensions w/ Hahns that want to serve their commanders by fighting for them?

Any idea which units act as commanders to Hahns? Would it just be Falkes or Storchs as well?

Are Hahns also chivalrous outside of their loyalty? Do you think that’s an issue for them being part of the Eusan Nation?

Do you think Hahns train together in their spare time? Maybe engage in Hahn to Hahn combat?

Thank you for giving me another excuse to talk about my rooster boys, I really appreciate it. I am actually writing for them as we speak, so I appreciate the chance to share with my beloved mutual, loyal followers, and the general Signalis tag. This will be a long post so more under the cut.

HANR (Hüter Angriff Nahkampf Replika - Hahn) (acronyms subject to change) are dual-purpose close-range specialists built to resemble martial champions from mankind's ancient history, serving as both loyal protectors and valiant frontline vanguard soldiers.

Physically, they stand at 175 cm (same as Adler and Eule) not including helmets, and their face resembles Adler's but with facial hair and brown hair and eyes. They're covered entirely in armour, usually painted red and black like Star's but often decorated and even repainted by the Hahn himself, as they have a tendency for vanity and favour flashy, attention grabbing colours and accessories such as plumes, ribbons, engravings, and etc. They wield large Zweihander as their main weapon, though some also carry an emergency firearm, often pistols or revolvers.

Hahns are well known for their intense loyalty, and possess the signature ability to bond to their charge, forming deep connections and devoting themselves to protecting their charge and obeying their orders, even at the cost of their lives. Once a bond is formed it is unbreakable, and even if the charge does not return their affection, the Hahn will stay by their side for the remainder of his life. Their devotion is second to none, and they are even more dependent on their commander for their well-being than Adler units.

Aside from their bonds and vanity, Hahns have two more notable traits. First, they possess low-level bioresonant potential that shields them from mental manipulation, such as Kolibri's mind control for example. They have no active bioresonant abilities to use themselves, however, and they aren't protected from physical application of bioresonance such as Falke's spears.

Second, Hahns tend to develop strict codes of honour, which they painstakingly follow at every step. This can often interfere with their duties, and Hahns who are caught between obeying their orders or upholding their morality can quickly grow distressed by the conflict. A charge's command will almost always override the code, but being ordered to break their ideals too often runs a high risk of destabilizing the Hahn. There is only one recorded case in the unit's history of a Hahn choosing to follow his code even against direct orders, to the point of treason against the Eusan Nation. The unit, HANR-0331 Ritter, still evades capture and his whereabouts are unknown to this day.

Hahns are most often paired to Falkes, often in groups of 3-6, but in one case as many as a dozen Hahns have been assigned to a single Falke. Other common charges are Adlers, who are often given a single Hahn guard, two at the most. Rarer but not unheard of charges are high-ranking Star security officers, but in theory a Hahn could bond to most Replika types.

Battlefield-deployed Hahns often prefer to bond to each other, creating a strong sense of fellowship within the company. Frontline Hahns are fiercely protective of their units, and are deployed to deal with the most threatening enemy unit in the field while their allies fight weaker but more numerous combatants.

Hahns prefer to spend their spare time at the side of their charges, but when forced to part from them, they also find joy in the company of their brothers, and get along with most other Replika. Common pastimes are sparring, comparing their decorated liveries, socializing with other Replikas, and often even Gestalts. The only Replikas that Hahns have trouble with are Storchs, who they clash with over the latter's vicious streak and cruel tendencies, and Kolibris with whom they compete for the Falke's attention and affection.

I could go on and on about these funky dudes and what I have for them, but this post is already long and kinda disorganized, so I'll cut it off here, but I'll accept more questions any time!

[heavenpierceher]

oh we submitting requests for ask memes now? ....tailpipe lmao

thank you for doing this so i did not have to send myself an ask as three psilocyns in a trenchcoat. original here

1. What is the character’s go-to drink order?

he orders a) whatever “special” there is, if there’s a drink of the day he gets that, b) “you pick”/“something you think i’d like” (annoying but endearing), or c) the cybertronian equivalent of whatever’s the sweetest and fruitiest. he never gets the same thing twice, except when he does multiple times in a row because sometimes the familiarity is comforting. swerve knows he’s feeling down when he gets the same few orders in a row from him

2. What is their grooming routine?

initially he pays a lot of attention to looking cool and important therefore buffing the ever loving shit out of his frame while strategically leaving alone cool looking scratches. post-RiL he doesn’t have much of a reason to do that anymore so he’s just Normal but he also likes, like. i think he’d enjoy braiding holoform whirl’s hair for her

3. What was their most expensive purchase/where does their disposable income go?

he LOOOOOVES trinkets. LOVES them. he gets a souvenir for every planet they stop on. doesn’t collect anything in particular, just has an eye for kitschy little desk toys and stuff to put on the walls

4. Do they have any scars or tattoos?

no engravings (he’s skittish) but he could probably be very easily talked into getting one. obviously physical scars aren’t much of an entity in canon since they can Just Go Get A New One but i do think he’s got some residual weakness in his legs from having them crushed+cybercrosis and prefers to use his alt mode to travel short distances

5. What was the last time they cried, and under what circumstances?

yesterday. he accidentally stepped on someone’s foot and got scared. poor guy

6. Are they an oldest, middle, youngest or only child?

again, not applicable, but i think he has, like, “second youngest of 6 kids” energy

7. Describe the shoes they’re wearing.

human au—cheap workboots, but he’d rather be wearing cool, fashionable chunky sneakers. maybe air maxes. he thinks the little window is cool

8. Describe the place where they sleep.

more closely resembles a nest. he’s fucking comfortmaxxing. sleepy and nappilled. genuinely a little difficult to see him under all the pillows

9. What is their favorite holiday?

all of them! he’ll take any excuse to celebrate something. he actually likes holidays he doesn’t celebrate but his friends do the most, and also holidays he can use to tell stories

10. What objects do they always carry around with them?

see, he’d like to be the friend who always has hand sanitizer and scissors, but he’s not quite that organized, so at any given time you’d get like… one of his trinkets, wrench given to him by someone and never used “in case he needs it”, snacks (he can always be counted on to have snacks at least), small weapon (mostly to aid in bragging), and a datapad with notes on literally everything, half diary and half encyclopedia. you are not allowed to read it but he’ll read parts of it to you if you want

Science/Fiction. A Non-History of Plants, the exhibition that makes me want to compete with scientific journals

I admit that I care about advertising in underground stations, because this is an efficient way for me to keep myself up to date with cultural news. This is how I took note of the exhibition Science/Fiction. A Non-History of Plants, at the European House of Photography (Maison Européenne de la Photographie), in Paris. I have an interest in plants, but I never had heard about this exhibition before the day I saw its advertising at one underground station. Maybe it is because photography is not an art that enthrals me, so I don’t make the effort to inform myself about news of this art. Whatever, after visiting this exhibition, I want to dedicate this blog post to two projects that interested me. 

The first project I want to talk about is called Voynich Botanical Studies. It is a work by Miljohn Ruperto and Ulrick Helfoft, produced in 2014. It consists of gelatin silver prints. Voynich Botanical Studies is based on illustrations of plants that these two artists have found in a 16th century mysterious manuscript of unknown authorship, and discovered in 1912 by antiquarian Wilfrid Voynich. It contains illustrations of unusual plants that Ruperto and Helfoft reconstructed with traditional photography and with 3D modelling, to highlight their strangeness in a new way. These reconstructions of plants had an impact on me. After some research on Voynich Botanical Studies, one piece of information seems to be very important to understand the resonance of this work : it is based on a manuscript with a text which is impossible to decode and illustrations of plants which are impossible to identify. So, people who study it have doubts about the scientific nature of this manuscript : it is maybe a prank. To me, these pieces of art don’t give any importance to the representation of real botanical specimens, because they have a deeper meaning since we know that they represent unrealistic plants. They reaffirm the importance of the imagination to think about the complexity of the world by artistic creation, and to revive our curiosity towards nature. In fact, these plants don’t exist, but we only know 20% of living things : I see Voynich Botanical Studies as a reminder that when we imagine “unrealistic” plants, we are in fact on a fragile and unstable line between fiction and reality.

Selection of images from Voynich Botanical Studies, Miljohn Ruperto, Ulrick Helfoft, 2024.

Pages from the Voynich manuscript, unknown authorship, 1666.

In contrast with the relationship between plants and fiction, there is the investigation of the best method to represent a plant. Since the end of the 15th century, woodcut was used to portray plants on printed books. In the 17th century, “intaglio” appeared. It is a type of engraving that allows more details to represent a botanical specimen. It is the few pieces of information I know about printing technology applied to botanical books. The exhibition Science/Fiction — A Non-History of Plants allowed me to discover nature printing, and more precisely electroplating. It appeared in the 16th century, and it consisted of pressing a plant onto a pliable lead plate. It left a perfect counter-relief impression that was coated with the same color as the plant before being applied on paper. Electroplating is a method of printing that Henry Bradbury (1829–1860) used for his books. Only a few pages of them are shown, but the exhibition doesn't explain more about electroplating or the history of nature printing, so I investigated this subject. I learned that Bradbury’s books don’t have any text and are to be considered as “an advertisement for the potential applications of nature printing”. I also saw a document from the National library of France (Bibliothèque nationale de France) which said that electroplating is a method of printing which was not really used in France. I think it means that it was not well-known, despite the fact that it allows a perfect image of a botanical specimen, unlike drawing.

British Ferns and their Allies, Thomas Moore (author), Henry Bradbury (engraver), 1859. Plate 5 and 14.

Voynich Botanical Studies and electroplating have a different goal. On the one hand, Voynich Botanical Studies see plants as a subject for artistic creation. 3D modelling helps to create images that look like plants. Artists stand by that their works are not photographs of botanical specimens because the staging of the pictures is not realistic (plants seem to levitate) and we easily guess that we are in front of 3D images. On the other hand, electroplating is a method to print plants which displays the quest of specimen representation in scientific books. Because I already have some experience in the discipline of scientific illustration, I know that drawing is considered as the privileged method to represent plants in scientific publications. But this monopolisation raises questions like “Why continue to choose a drawing instead of a photograph ?”, “Is drawing the best way to represent this specimen ?”, “how to draw this plant as accurately as possible ?”, etc. When I discovered electroplating, I asked myself if this method of printing can be relevant in scientific publications or in publications which popularize science, or if it only has an aesthetic interest. Because unlike drawing, which enables the draughtsman to have a good command on what he represents, electroplating is not a representation of a botanical specimen but its trace. It is the same thing with 3D scans and images : some scientists are starting to use them for their research, and I think these productions can open new doors for scientific publications or publications which popularize science. It can be a graphic design subject that interests me a lot.

Judges 10: 6-10. "The Keys."

The Torah and Gematria warn the spiral staircase that leads towards Ha Shem is also arabah, a zigzag. There are also poles, constructive and deconstructive ways to approach the same moment in time based on the conditions present in the mind at the time. All of this is due to the structure of the Alefbeis, the letters within the Hebrew alphabet which exist in relationships not unlike polynomials or quadratic equations.

Note the Mishnah and Gemara on the Grasshoppers if you have not read them already. They illustrate the immensity of the "word problem" that is Judaism. Even after one learns how to solve for X or arrange the words so they make sense in English, the Rab says one must perfect one's understanding with practical application.

The Torah and Tanakh are a blueprint for civilized life. Only a fool would just talk about it without trying to live it. As a result of our failure to implement the Torah, armies are shooting missiles all day long turning ordinary lives into piles of rubble. Door to door they are doing this all over the world.

Violence is forbidden by the Torah. The jealousy behind the violence is forbidden by the Torah. Oppressing one's fellow man into the service of an army that acts on the ambitions of a corrupt man is forbidden by the Torah. For these things the prescription is death. Not only the death of the perpetrators but of the era that spawned a mankind that is incapable of refraining from wickedness.

Verily the Torah says if you are a savage man in a modern man's costume you must be erased from this world so the world of the future can turn. This message is meant for Donald Trump, the Republicans, the Mormons, Valdimir Putin, Bashar Assad, Muhammad Bin Salman, Kung Pao Kitty in North Korea, that asshole in Iran, all of you shall be soon be dead as penance for your crimes and as a reward for the virtuous.

Anywhere in the world where the few oppress the many, the Angel of Death shall trespass and kill them all, leaving freedom in its wake.

This is so God's Will and His Torah do not lose their place in human history. To Him must always be the Glory and that means the wicked, the corrupt, the violent and the ambitious must be put to death.

Anyone who attacks a Jew anywhere on earth or attacks Israel itself will die.

This brings us to the next Judge, Jephthah, which means to speak, to open the door with the key:

The verb פתח (patah) means to open. And since the opening of lips precedes speaking, and the opening of ears precedes hearing, our verb may also mean to speak and to hear (and to see, to be hospitable, to ask for with open hands, and so on). Our verb may be applied to the opening of constricting things, which gives it the meaning of to loosen or release. This verb (or perhaps a whole separate one) may also be used to mean to engrave, although engraving and opening a surface so that the surface speaks are not that far apart.

Noun פתח (petah) means opening or doorway. Similar noun פתח (petah) means opening in the sense of an unfolding. Noun פתון (pithon) also means opening. Noun פתיחה (petiha) denotes a drawn sword (the edge of a sword was known as the "mouth" of it). A prefixed מ usually indicates place or agency and noun מפתח (miptah) means utterance and the similar masculine noun מפתח (mapteah) means key.

The opposite or zigzag associated with this persona is an Amorite, "a talker". It has the specific connotation of "talking but promising nothing."

The ubiquitous verb אמר ('amar) means to talk or say and may even mean to promise or command. Nouns אמר ('omer) and מאמר (ma'amar) mean speech, word, promise or command. Nouns אמרה ('imra) and אמרה ('emra) mean utterance or speech. The metaphorical noun אמיר ('amir) refers to the leafy and fruit bearing crown of a tree.

The world is being laid to waste because of the contest between "words that are keys" and those that are utter total rubbish.

This mistake happens always after "Evil is done in the eyes of the Lord." The Gematria for verse 6 explains. The Number is 7284, זבחד‎ "sacrifice zabhad", "Get rid of the wolf with the sharply pointed tongue."

If that doesn't work the Shoftim says to sell the offenders, those who are listening to the Wolf into slavery to their supposed masters.

Now we know people are not supposed to have sex with minors. Everyone knows this. A person who is willing to risk this most egregious of sins and those who allow him to do it are allowing a person with deeply flawed character to exist side by side with people to whom they are a threat. Societies are not allowed to sell themselves the idea that the company of persons that do this is acceptable.

Everyone knows cheating on a boyfriend or husband or wife or girlfriend breaks their heart. Allowing it to happen or being supportive when it does forces an innocent person to live alongside someone who is actually a primary threat to their happiness and long life.

We are not allowed to be sold into situations with dangerous immoral persons. We are told to extricate ourselves from these circumstances and never look back. So the next Judge, Jephthah is the character trait of one who discerns how inconceivable life is alongside someone or something who is immoral and forsakes them.

To convince oneself things will work out and attempt to incorporate the person or persons and create a neighborhood with them is called an Ammonite. To build a community alongside persons like the Mormons, who have sex with minors, for example, or tolerate oppression like Pro-Life, or get married to a wiener dog is to commune after the manner of an Ammonite and this is forbidden.

Jephthah

6 Again the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord. They served the Baals and the Ashtoreths, and the gods of Aram, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the Ammonites and the gods of the Philistines. And because the Israelites forsook the Lord and no longer served him,

 7 he became angry with them. He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and the Ammonites, 

8 who that year shattered and crushed them. For eighteen years they oppressed all the Israelites on the east side of the Jordan in Gilead, the land of the Amorites. 

9 The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin and Ephraim; Israel was in great distress. 

10 Then the Israelites cried out to the Lord, “We have sinned against you, forsaking our God and serving the Baals.”

The Values in Gematria are:

v. 6. Definitions first:

Baal= a god on the ground. Do not worship men like they are gods.

Ashtoreth= "a central law." The institutionalized practice of fucking little kids by the Mormons is an example of an Ashtoreth. Some religions forbid the consumption of pork, or gay sex or force women to cover, these are also examples of Ashtoreths.

Gods of Aram= Nepotism, corruption, all the evils associated with politics.

The verb רום (rum) means to be high or high up in either a physical, social or even attitudinal sense, and may also refer to the apex in a natural process: the being ripe and ready-for-harvest of fruits. Subsequently, our verb may imply a state beyond ripe (higher than ripe, overripe), which thus refers to rotting and being maggot riddled. This means that to the ancients, higher did not simply mean better, and an arrogant political status that was higher than it should be equaled rot and worms (Acts 12:23).

Gods of Sidon=Sidon means "calcium" or "all bones no meat." Religious practices that do not contribute to the muscles are no good. They detract from life rather than add to it, rendering it into other definition of Sidon, "A river containing fish bones instead of fish."

Gods of Moab= failure to comprehend, slaver to delusion. Moab is the opposite of Moses, "the water of comprehension."

"Water represents the great unknown from which the dry land (ארץ, 'eres) of the known emerges. The ancients knew that vapor rises from the seas and becomes rain and compared this cycle to that of cognition (Isaiah 55:10-1). The words for rain and teacher are the same: מורה (moreh), which are closely related to the familiar word Torah."

So a god of Moab is a heretic, like the ones on CBN, and anyone who listens to them is listening to and acting like an idiot.

Gods of Ammonites= see above.

Gods of Philistines= Philistines are "burrowers" and "tunnelers." They look for clever ways to be lawless, violent, or weird, just like the Mormons. All religions have tunnelers, however, people who quote things and make everyone else miserable and no one knows why.

v. 7: He became angry...the Value in Gematria is 3644, גו‎‎דד‎‎, gudad, "until goodness advances."

v. 8:  For eighteen years they oppressed all the Israelites on the east side of the Jordan in Gilead, the land of the Amorites. The East Side of the Jordan in Gilead is close but not close enough. Amorites speak out of habit rather than direct experience. They cannot help one cross the Jordan and see Ha Shem in the Promised Land.

The Value in Gematria is 7293, זבטג‎‎, zabatag, "the crown of the wolf" is to keep others from reaching the full potential of the Jewish Self by spewing nonsense. At age 18, one's susceptibility to this should end.

v. 9: The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin and Ephraim; Israel was in great distress. 

Jordan= "a young judge."

Judah= God's glory.

Benjamin= "son who is readily available."

Ephraim= "to make up the face in the sea." (to see himself in God's image.)

"To cure Israel of distress, a young man must readily demonstrate the ability to see himself made in God's image."

The Value in Gematria is 6051, ו‎אֶפֶסהא‎, "and the world will change."

v. 10: Then the Israelites cried out to the Lord, “We have sinned against you, forsaking our God and serving the Baals.” "Do not cry out, act."

God did not want to hear cries after He freed us from Egypt. Freedom, AKA citizenship is not a venue for complaints or relapses into oppression. There is no need to repent for crying out, one has to act appropriately instead.

The Value in Gematria is 6135, ו‎אגה‎‎ and aga, "and shine."

Revolutionizing Precision by CNC Components Manufacturers

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) is a machining technology. Products are created by removing material from a so-called workpiece using various cutting tools. At the same time, the production process is automated by software – the tool or workpiece moves according to the code, and the machine operator performs only auxiliary operations, such as changing tools or setting the workpiece. CNC machining by CNC components manufacturers makes it possible to produce high-precision parts from a CAD (computer-aided design system) file with excellent physical and mechanical properties. Due to the high level of automation, CNC machining is competitive for single pieces & short runs, as well as for serial and mass production.

CNC manufacturing process

The CNC manufacturing process of a product can be broken down into four main steps:

1. An engineer designs a CAD model.

2. A technologist based on CAD/CAM software prepares a control program for the CNC machine.

3. The operator inserts the tool, and workpiece into the CNC machine and starts the control program.

4. The CNC machine performs all the processing operations – material removal.

Aerospace

The aerospace industry encompasses all modes of air transport, from massive Airbus A380 aircraft that carry hundreds of passengers to spacecraft designed to fly to the International Space Station, the Moon, and even Mars. Aerospace technology is characterized by incredible precision that is difficult to achieve with conventional tools, which is why CNC machines by CNC-turned parts manufacturers were the perfect solution.

CNC in Aviation

The CNC machine plays a crucial role in the fast and accurate production of the parts that are used in the operation of every component of the aircraft. Such tools are used to create engine parts, cockpit equipment, aircraft skin, wings, and other parts.

CNC in the space industry

CNC is used at NASA, SpaceX, and Roscosmos enterprises to provide rockets with parts of any size and shape with incredibly high fitting accuracy. They produce spare parts for engines, computer equipment, parts for various systems, and spacecraft hulls.

Car

Car shop manager Rocky Helms has a lot of work to do. He oversees the workshop of the world-famous racing team Richard Childress Racing (RCR). The company's 24 employees work two shifts a day to produce the 170,000 parts needed to service the RCR.

The workshop itself occupies 7,000 square meters on a 210,000 square meter campus. Since its inception in 1969, RCR has played 17 championships and won more than 200 times in three NASCAR Major Series, including three Daytona 500 races (1998, 2007, 2018) and three Brickyard 400 races (1995, 2003, 2011).

To increase the production of cars and maintain maximum productivity in the workshop, the RCR is equipped with the latest material handling technologies, including the Roland MODELA MDX-540 benchtop mill.

According to Helms, the machine can do the work in 10 minutes that a person does in 10 hours. RCR uses Roland to mill engine and brake parts, wheel discs, and shock absorbers. The device is also used to create carbon fiber parts & to engrave identification numbers on parts.

Medical

In the space industry, it is customary to say: "There is no repair shop in space." The quality, precision, and reliability of each part must be impeccable because once it leaves the planet, it just has to work. The same applies to the medical field. If the prosthetic implant does not work properly, it affects the health and well-being of the patient. When the operation is complete, the part simply needs to function.

Global trends indicate that the need for medical implants will increase, as will the competition in the market. According to Seco Tools, about five major suppliers are vying for 85 percent of the orthopedic parts market, with more than 200 companies vying for the remaining 15 percent.

The manufacturing process of orthopedic implants includes cutting, grinding, 3D printing, and other operations on CNC devices by CNC machining parts factory. The machine performs roughing, finishing, milling, T-slot machining, chamfering, and deburring. The goal is to achieve the required surface finish, reducing the need for time-consuming manual processing. Five-axis milling and grinding machines provide advantages when working with complex shapes and contours of prosthetic implants. Thanks to CNC, the production time is significantly reduced & the accuracy is increased. Modern technology is capable of processing almost any material, including titanium and ceramics.
