PERISHED ROSE, perished beautifully

Since the day those things took over, they told you you were destined for only the best, and you were the most perfect creature on the planet they had taken over.

You would lay on the fake grass in the most expensive attire fit for royalty while everyone else was in white rags. Everyone looked at you as if you'd be their savior, but where you looked was at the floor, not even bothered by the people surrounding you, wanting to touch you, be saved by you.

Your voice was like nails on a chalkboard to me, your blank face was one of disgust to me, your nonspeaking tongue was an open invitation to me.

What would it take for you to have a different reaction? With your face so blank, like a canvas, it needed to be painted with a new emotion.

I approached you, but you don't even look at me; your eyes are always on the artificial green at your feet.

Nothing made you angry, happy, uncomfortable, or fearful because you knew nothing could happen to you; those things wouldn't allow it.

We had a connection.

Winter came, making the rose wither.

It was another song, you on stage with that stupid face. You were up against one of the top three, not that it mattered since you had always been number one. You were perfect after all.

You both belonged to the same thing, owner; it said it wanted to know who was truly the best, even if it costed a pet.

Who knows what the blonde was telling you for you to break that blankless face. Anger never seen before, it was a true look of hatred as you grip your instrument.

When they dragged you away, I could only think, why wasn't it me? Why couldn't I get that reaction out of you? Like a baseball bat swinging your instrument at me and taking what's yours, my life, It was the only way to truly go out.

Whatever words reached your ears that day by the true savior flicked an impossible switch in your brain for you to swing at various living beings that day; of course, who would mind? Their lives belonged to you.

After the 16th life they finally put the bullet through your head.

It was bitter, such emotion, but it wasn't caused by me. It was the insane glare of hateful emotions directed at someone else. What did he have that I don't?

Every human scattered, terrified of their savior being replaced by a monster, a cold, heartless charmer who took first place. What would they do without you?

But they do not understand how truly lost I am without you. It's not fair for humans to think they had connection with you.

You only spoke one sentence since those things took over.

"Ivan. When I die, I want to die perfectly. It's only fitting for a perfect rose like me."

I always hated you in a way. The way you never reacted to anything, but that day you spoke you had an emotion I still can't identify.

My goal was to make you have a reaction toward me or anything before you died. I never knew why.

I never knew what it was.

"Tonight, the perfect rose will die ugly, and a better one will bloom beautifully.

I finally rid of you and make that freak always by your side watch."

To Be Changed, Logan Walker x Reader

Your marriage was so happy and perfect, even though the world wasn’t. Despite the fear of your whole wedding being destroyed before you and Logan even put on the rings and said your vows, that didn’t stop either of you. If you were going to die, you might as well die tied to one another, surrounded by the people you treasure most. Thankfully, that wasn’t the case. The wedding went without a hitch, ignoring the occasional pitches of anxiety that bubbled in everyone's stomachs. There was a beautiful mountain that overlooked a nearby beach, it felt like the clouds parted just for you two that day. The sun shone down on the white you and Logan wore. The red rose in his breast pocket, the artificial one you gave him when you went on your first date, was accentuated by the surrounding colors of blue water and green grass. 

Logan was usually fairly quiet, but that day when he said his vows, he spoke more than you did. He managed to avoid stuttering, though you could feel his hands shaking. You were so proud of him and each word from his lips warmed your heart. That alone let you know that this was the right decision, the only one. 

Before you cut the cake, he whispered to you, “I can’t find the words to describe how much stronger you make me feel.” You looked at him, confused and curious, before he continued. “I barely speak to my own family and brothers, maybe because I don’t need to… but you changed that. Now, I’m just droning on and on about whatever’s happening at the moment. Because of you. Hell, my mom barely heard me talk this much.” He wrapped his arms around you, cupping your hands that held the knife for the cake. “I bet she’s watching us now. She’d love you so much.” And with that, you both cut the first slice. 

A quote floated through your mind, “To be loved is to be changed.” and by God, did you change Logan.

That’s what made today so painful.

That’s why you sat on the floor in front of the front door to you and Logan’s home. That’s why David held you, holding the back of your head so you didn’t see him silently crying while you sobbed. You held Logan’s mask and dogtags close to your heart. Eventually, Keegan and Merrick had come out of the car they drove here. Keegan knelt down to rub your back, attempting to comfort you as best as he could. Merrick told you more than he, as a Captain, should tell any civilian. He’d made an exception for you. Seeing as he had a job to protect his best friend's children in the most dangerous job they could all have now, you joked that Logan and David were his adopted kids.

He never denied it. Because of that, you might as well have been his adopted kid, now in-law too. And as that in-law, it was his job to tell you that Logan was, for better or worse, not dead. You looked up at him with tears still falling. He explained what happened from the beginning. A man, a horrible man, named Rorke who was a former Ghost that the Federation destroyed and turned into something repulsive. David added that it was Rorke who had dragged Logan away on that beach. That fucking beach. He explained how it was his own fault for not doing more, for not saving him despite his injuries that, even now, two weeks after, he was still healing from.

You almost slapped him. You wanted to slap Merrick too. You were heartbroken and afraid and every negative emotion you could possibly feel nearly boiled over. You sat on the couch, the men around you as they tried to help you breathe. When you calmed down enough to speak coherently, you asked a simple question:

“Will we ever see him again? Alive?”

Merrick answered, as hopeful as he could be.

“We’ll do everything we can to make sure we will.”

That’s all you could really ask for. David moved and carefully dug into his front pocket before he pulled out his hand and offered something small and shiny. It was Logan’s ring. Both of your rings were made of titanium for its durability, Logan was worried about scratching or otherwise damaging it, so he chose titanium. Strong and durable. You had told him it reminded you of his personality, how he just kept going under all circumstances. You would’ve started crying again if this alone hadn’t already exhausted you. As much as you wanted to hold all of Logan’s things to try to feel like he was with you, you handed his mask and dog tags to Hesh. You knew where the mask came from. Who originally wore it.

“I think they’d want you to hold these.” you said, quiet as ever. David knew you weren’t just talking about Logan, but their father, Elias the “Scarecrow”, as well. He grabbed the mask and tags, putting the tags on and clutching the mask like a lifeline. As everyone stood up and walked to the door, you hugged David and whispered to him, your voice still shaking.

“It’s not your fault. I know he doesn’t blame you. I don’t either.”

“Thank you,” He paused, “I’ll do everything in my power to bring him back to you.”

You hugged Merrick and Keegan before they walked back to the car.

“Be safe!” You called out. A useless but well-intentioned farewell to the soldiers. They waved back before pulling out of the driveway, leaving you alone.

That night, you took Logan’s ring and put the chain of your favorite necklace, one he had given you before your marriage, through the ring and laid it around your neck. You cried, holding his cold pillow and wearing an old hoodie you’d stolen from his closet while he was gone. Your body ached with every sob.

Three months later, you began cleaning the house before the depression that kept you in your room most of the time got too bad. It helped a little, going through every nook and cranny. You even went into the attic. Any time either of you traversed into the usually dark storage, it would end with you holding the giant vacuum, claiming you saw a spider the size of your head while Logan chuckled. After a bit, he’d go up with a flashlight only to find some critter that got stuck up there because of a hole. Once he’d patched up the hole and cleaned out as much as he could, it all felt more comfortable.

As you looked through old boxes, you found pictures. The oldest going back to when you both first met. It was a charity for veterans in your old town where Logan, David and Elias were stationed. There were games you and your friends played, competing. At one point, Elias jokingly joined in which pulled David and, naturally, Logan. As the night went on, you and Logan got closer. He barely spoke but his chuckles at your comments were enough for you.

“I was so close to winning! You gotta give me credit for that!” You argued, cheeks hurting from smiling so much. You turned to see Logan looking at you, his brow raised and smirking.

“How? You’re 25 points behind me.” He remarked.

“I would’ve won if… if I had been playing with someone other than you!”

“Like who?”

“One of my friends, probably Ash!”

“You have 10 points.” Each time the tiny basketballs went in the hoop, it was 5 points. 

“Yes and I would be 10 points ahead of them which means I would win!” He practically wheezed at that as you giggled. You looked  over to see David and Elias staring at the both of you, wide smiles plastered on their faces.

You kept looking through the box. Finding photos from the day you met Keegan and Merrick, then the day you visited Mrs. Walker’s grave for the first time. You stared at that picture of Logan and David sitting together in front of the stone. It was so peaceful.

You held the photo to your chest and thought of Logan. You whispered to yourself, “Please, please protect him. Keep all of them safe. I just want them to be happy… Elias and Diane, please watch over all of them.”.

Another three months later, you hadn’t heard from David, Keegan, Merrick or any other military personnel. It had been a total of eleven months since you last saw your husband. You were Logan’s emergency contact and many people aside from the Ghosts knew you, so if something happened then someone would contact you. This should be comforting. No one calling you means no one’s dead, right? Nothing bad. So why were you so anxious? You couldn’t reach anyone so maybe something did happen and-

Your phone rang. It was David. You answered immediately.

“David? What happened? Where have you been?”

“Come outside, I have to show you something.”

It’d been a long time since you ran that fast. David sat in his truck, as you ran over to the passenger side, he leaned to open the door from his seat. As soon as your door closed and you buckled in, he began driving.

“David, what’s going on?”

He inhaled through his nose, you noticed how hard he was gripping the wheel and that he was going a bit fast. He was a careful driver normally. If he was amongst civilians, he was calm and never dared going above the speed limit in case there was a child or a dog or pedestrian walking when and where they shouldn’t be. This drive, however, was different. Something happened.

“We got him.” He looked at you, your eyes wide as they slowly filled with tears. “He’s back.”

“W-when did he get back?” You stuttered.

“Almost two weeks ago-” You opened your mouth to speak but David put his hand up. You waited. “Knowing Rorke and his history, we kept Logan on base to heal some and do some mental evaluations.”

“David…”

“I need to warn you right now, he’s not gonna be the same man you knew before all this shit happened. He’s gonna have a lot of recovering to do.”

David went on to explain Rorke and what the Federation did to him. You were quiet.

“Did he do all of that to Logan?”

“We aren’t sure. We just know that whatever it was wasn’t good. He’s clear to come home today if both of you are ready, but I just needed to tell you.” Good thing the house was clean.

“Thank you, David. I know this has probably been harder on you than anyone.” David tried to laugh.

“I mean it’s my job-” You put your hand on his shoulder.

“You know what I mean. Thank you. Seriously.” He exhaled slowly, he seemed to relax a little.

“You’re welcome.”

“You can come by whenever you like if Logan comes back. Maybe just give me a warning, ok?”

“I will. I promise.”

David parked the truck after you checked in at the front gate. Your heart beat rapidly despite the slow walk through the base. You recognized some of the men and gave a half-hearted wave when they greeted you. You could already tell. They knew why you were here.

You walked into the base hospital. David took you down numerous hallways you knew there was a chance you’d see one day but never expected, never wanted to walk down. But this was for Logan. David opened the door to the room you stood in front of.

You couldn’t tell if your heart was breaking or if you were having a heart attack or what…

There he was, sitting against the bed he must’ve been in since returning, looking at you.

Logan was in a hospital gown, his arms and legs below the knee exposed. The skin was covered in jagged scars and stitches that were still such a dark and aggressive red. Along with that were numerous bruises, a painful variety of purples, yellows, and green in some spots. His right arm in a cast and sling. On his other hand, his ring and finger are wrapped, probably broken or dislocated. You notice how his left shoulder and upper arm seem to be wrapped with gauze. You don’t want to imagine what injuries he must have that you can’t see.

His face. His handsome face. He looks so tired. Logan turned towards you and tried to limp over, using the bed for stability. You rushed forward instinctually. Once he was close enough, he slowly wrapped his unbroken arm around your back. You looked at him. He had dark circles under his eyes, faded bruising on his left cheekbone, two intersected scars ran across his face. One started between his eyebrows to his cheek. The second from the middle of his chin, across his lips until it passed the other scar on that same cheek. His skin was cool and pale, unlike the warm complexion he had prior to the kidnapping. 

You ended up staying for about two hours before you got a list of medications from doctors, some extra gauze wraps and a pamphlet detailing how to handle a deep second degree burn at home. That was why his shoulder and arm were wrapped. You said goodbye to David, Keegan and Merrick soon after.

The first few weeks, Logan mostly stayed in bed. Every day you checked his injuries, the stitches and the burn, to make sure there was no infection and they were healing properly. By the fourth week or so, the burn had healed, leaving behind a large patch of discolored skin. At nearly the sixth week, his cast was removed. His arm and fingers had healed well and correctly. David had told you that when Logan was taken, his arm was broken. When he was found, his arm had healed incorrectly as a result of improper care, assuming any care was given, so the doctors had to re-break it before putting it in the cast. 

After the seventh week, Logan was able to walk around without limping. However, he mostly just stayed in your room. Sometimes, you’d spend the day in the living room in hopes it would coax him out. It didn’t work. You cooked his favorite meals but he would usually bring the food back to the room. When it was time for bed, you essentially snuck around the room to avoid scaring him in case he was sleeping. You were pretty sure he wasn’t sleeping, at least not as much as he should’ve been. It remained this way for a few more weeks.

A month and a half into Logan being back home and he’d uttered a scarce amount of words. “Okay”, “alright”, “yes”, “no” and whatever else kept his sentences short. He barely talked to you anymore. Of course, you kept David updated as often as possible. You felt like he just wasn’t there. Now, he was more of a ghost than ever.

Two months in and he started going to the base again. For what? You don’t know. You had asked where he was going, dressed in his “soldier getup” as you called it.

“I’m going to work. Can’t be late. I’ll be back later.” He’d stated hastily before heading out. This continued on for another two weeks until you decided to talk to him before he left.

“Logan, honey, can we talk?”

“Um… sure, but I have to leave before 9.” He was trying to rush again.

“I wanted to ask about that actually…” He looked at you, mostly expressionless. “You were just gone for almost, what, six months? Why are they having you back at work when you might as well have just finished actually healing?”

“I… There’s still work to be done.” he stuttered. You cocked your head. You turned to him from your position on the couch.

“What work?” you asked slowly and quietly. You knew he wasn’t lying. You didn’t want him to think you thought he was lying. You wanted to keep the conversation calm so he wasn’t overwhelmed.

“It’s a lot. I don’t think- right now isn’t the right time.” he began to turn.

“We can talk later if that’s better, but I just want to know. I’m worried about you.”

“You don’t need to worry, I just need to do some things.” His voice carried no emotion. He was almost at the door when you stood suddenly.

“Logan, I just want to understand!” Logan stopped in his tracks. You stared at his back. “I want to just talk, please… I know your job is important and I don’t want to get in the way with complaining…” Your voice cracked. You wrapped your arms around yourself. Logan was here, in the same house as you. You stared at him but you felt lonelier than ever. “You’re so far away, Logan… and… and I know there was so much that happened and we didn’t know if we’d ever see each other again, but we’re together now!” You walked closer to him. He heard your steps but he stayed still. “We don’t have to act like nothing happened. We couldn’t if we wanted to, I know that… but please talk to me again. I married you because I love you. I married you and everything that came with you. I said those vows and ‘in sickness and in health’ because even when you’re hurting, I’ll be there. I’m here right now! But I need you to let me be there. I need you to stop hiding yourself away from me. I want to know you again, Logan.” Your breathing had picked up as tears welled up in your eyes.

Time just stopped. You turned and sat back on the couch facing away from him. You quietly wept into your hands as everything just seemed to spill over. You had reached your boiling point. You didn’t hear the footsteps coming to you until you opened your eyes and noticed the giant boots that faced your much smaller feet. A large pair of hands slowly removed your hands from your face, one tilted your head up.

You saw Logan’s beautiful eyes, a sort of hazel that seemed gold in the light. He slowly knelt down in front of you and hugged you. Not like the barely there hug he mustered at the hospital when he couldn’t even walk on his own. He pulled you tight against him and you immediately curled around him as you sobbed. He let you. Logan pulled back after a moment and held your face. He wiped your tears with his thumbs. 

“I love you too… more than anything.” He stared into your reddening, tear-filled eyes for a moment before sighing as he sat next to you. You held his hand, his thumb stroked your knuckles as he thought about his next words. “A couple days ago,” he started, “something happened. I can’t tell you what yet but it was cause for concern. Especially with Ghost team.” He paused and looked at you, directly into you. “I want to tell you everything, but it’s going to be a lot to process and it’ll probably be scary. I don’t want you to deal with this, with all the problems coming to us because of Rorke but you’re right to want to know what’s happening and you deserve to know.” You looked at the time, 8:55 A.M. You stood, Logan followed, still holding your hand. He pressed your hand against his chest and over his heart.

“I love you.” You whispered.

“I love you too. I’ll talk to Merrick today and I’ll try to get home as early as I can. We can talk about everything while we make dinner.”

“Together?”

“Together. I’ll call you if anything comes up and if you need me to, I can get groceries, ok?” You nodded. This is all you asked for. You hugged Logan tightly as he wrapped himself around you. You walked him to the door where he kissed you goodbye, on the lips. It felt like it had been forever since you’d done that. You stopped him before he moved. He almost retorted when you pulled off the necklace you still had on. He stared at the ring hanging from it. You took the ring off and put it back on his hand. He stared at it for a moment and smiled. A tired little smile that took so much weight off of you. Logan grabbed the necklace and took the time to put it back around your neck before he kissed you again.

“Thank you.” He whispered, still smiling. You smiled back as he walked to the car, waving when he began to drive. It had only been 10 minutes at most but those 10 minutes were so freeing. The rest of the morning you spent outside, reading and occasionally texting your friends when they checked in. The sun warmed your skin and the air was so fresh. You went back inside around 3 P.M when Logan called you:

Logan: “I can come back home around 6 tonight.”

You: “Sounds good, any ideas for dinner?”

Logan: “I could really go for lasagna.”

You: “Can you stop at the store on your way back? I have a list!”

Logan: “Yeah, just send it to me.”

With that, you texted everything you needed before moving to clean up the kitchen and free up space.

Later that night, Logan returned with everything you asked for plus a tub of ice cream. Your favorite flavor. You got to cooking, boiling the sheets and preparing the sauce while the oven preheated. You cooked together, like old times. It had been so long. Music quietly played as you both took turns tasting everything. A little extra salt and paprika here, with some pepper too. You laid down the floppy lasagna sheets while Logan poured the sauce over top then you both spread your favorite cheeses before adding more sheets and so on. While the lasagna was in the oven, you sat on the couch together. Logan held you in his arms as you stroked the hair on the back of his neck. After savoring the peace of the moment, Logan started talking.

When he was kidnapped, Rorke had put him through the same trials he himself had experienced. Being force fed poisoned food was the start until Rorke seemed to grow bored and eventually forced him to eat the plants the poison had been extracted from. Logan told you everything. All the grim details. At some points, you actually felt nauseous just hearing the horrors. When he was almost done talking about what he was forced to endure, you just held him and continued to encourage him to talk. He held you tight as he explained. The beatings he was put through. The way his arm healed wrong and he could hardly use it without feeling pain.

Then he looked at you. You felt so fragile with the way he looked at you with his tired eyes. He spoke again.

“Rorke knows about you.”

You never met this man in your life, never saw pictures. But he was like a boogeyman. He could appear from under your bed at any moment. 

“His soldiers… left us a message… Threatening to take me again. They said this time they’d take you too.”

That’s why he was going back to base. To work with his brother and everyone to make sure nothing happened. You didn’t live far from the base but they were thinking about bringing you on post to be cautious. That’s why Logan went back to work so soon. To protect you. That’s why he was telling you all of this now, to further protect you.

You were scared. Hearing about something like this happening was one thing, but knowing the man who stole your husband and almost broke him from the inside out was completely different. Especially when you knew that he wanted you too. Oh god. Logan held you and told you that the two of you could always move on base where you’d be protected and closer to him. You’d be amongst him and the other soldiers and Riley, Hesh’s dog. They wouldn’t let anything happen. And so you agreed. That night you just focused on being together, holding one another and eating your delicious lasagna as you reminisced together. 

Over the course of the next week, you brought as many of your necessities over to base where you and Logan continued living together. You met some friends of his and their partners, gaining your own group of friends not long after moving. Some had even assisted in bringing more of your things over when Logan had to work.

Later down the line, the Ghost team flew out. You weren’t told anything about what the mission entailed, but when Logan came to you, mask on, and put his ring in your hand before kissing you goodbye, you had an idea.

“I will make sure no one, not a single person touches you. Not a single damn person. I will keep it that way. I promise.” He whispered, voice more stern than ever. 

Your friends on base were all a wonderful support system during the next week they were gone for. You weren’t able to reach out again but you believed in them. You took care of Riley, who’d grown to love you.

When the week was done, they came back and Logan had made a beeline for you. You were reading, his ring back on your necklace when the door opened and your husband walked in, covered in dirt and other unidentifiable muck and alive. You rushed to jump into his arms and kiss him, ignoring the weird taste of said dirt in your mouth. You gave his ring back, ignoring the dirt that was on his hands too. While you held him, he whispered in your ear, “It’s all over now. We can go home.”.

So you did. David, Keegan and Merrick were kind enough to assist with moving your things back over and checking your house for anything that wasn’t meant to be there, anything that indicated a break in. Shit, they’d even checked the vents too. When that was all done, you made lasagna for them and spent the evening laughing together and savoring the peace that had finally come over the world again. Later, you and Logan laid in bed together, happy as ever and whispered sweet words to each other. Both of you could finally get some rest.

The end, thank you for reading! I will also post this on my ao3 @ RiversSong82

Trip: "Your home seems rather... interesting to look at say the least" *She and Surge are sitting near a big lake of blood on mechrotic island" Surge who's skipping stones at said lake of blood: "I know right? My metal dad knows pretty awesome design" *Suddenly a submarine arises out of the big lake of blood* Trip: "What is that??!" Kit running to Surge with a game-like device: "Ha! Told you sis! I beat your high score!" Surge: "No fair I work hard on that! Oh sorry about that Trip but that's submarine for Starline's Underblood Adventure game" Trip: "The what game??" (Starline gets put into submarine in the lakes of blood which is controlled like a video game with a remote device)

Trip: When I was younger, Sonic told me stories about how beautiful his home of South Island was... I always hoped to see it someday. I guess everything changes with time.

Surge: Jeez, I'm sorry...

Trip: It's not your fault! And your metal father's redesigns are beautiful in their own way.

Surge, remembering something: Can you keep a secret?

Trip: Yes, why?

Surge: Then follow me! *Grabs Trip's hand*

*Surge leads Trip to a mountainside and then through a secret cave entrance*

*The cave opens up to reveal Green Hill Zone, seemingly untouched, underneath the mountain, complete with an artificial sky*

Trip: What is this place?

Surge: Green Hill Zone, it was dad's favorite part of South Island.

Trip: So your metal dad left it untouched for him?

Surge: Ehh, not quite. *Stomps her foot full force onto the "grass," causing it to briefly turn back into ferrofluid before reforming* But he did work really hard to perfectly recreate it as a birthday present for dad.

Sonic, appearing out of seemingly nowhere: Yep, honestly one of the best birthday presents I've ever gotten. Anyway, what are you two lovebirds up to?

Surge: Uh... well... uh... *sigh* Trip wanted to see South Island, so I wanted to show her this place. I know I'm supposed to keep it a secret, but-

Sonic: Don't sweat it. Metal just wants to keep it a secret because he doesn't want people to pressure him into undoing everything he did to the island. But between you and me, I don't think anybody wants Labyrinth Zone to come back. Why don't I guide you two through a romantic tour? *bows*

 In golf, you need to be consistent, accurate, and practice a lot.  Natural grass gives you the classic golf experience, but it can be hard to deal with, because it depends on the weather, costs a lot to keep up, and has uneven playing surfaces.  That's when artificial golf turf changes the game.  Synthetic turf looks and feels like real grass, but it's more reliable, lasts longer, and costs less. It also makes your practice sessions better, and your game better.

 Whether you're a professional golfer, a coach, or just someone who likes to play golf in their backyard, buying high-quality artificial turf can make a big difference in how well you play and how much work it takes to keep the surface clean.  Thanks to new developments in turf technology, the synthetic options available today are very realistic, and useful for playing and practicing golf.

The Benefits of Artificial Golf Turf

 The fact that artificial turf lasts a long time is one of its best features.  Frequent foot traffic, changing weather, and inconsistent mowing and watering schedules can quickly wear out natural grass.  On the other hand, fake golf turf stays the same and usable all year long.  It doesn't grow, dry out, or get patchy, so you can work on your golf swing every day, in the same conditions.

 For both golf course managers and homeowners, upkeep is a big worry.  You don't have to mow, water, fertilize, or control pests on artificial turf, which saves you time, and money.  It also means you're making a choice that is good for the environment. Synthetic turf is good for the environment because it uses less water and doesn't need chemical fertilizers.

 Another important thing is how easy it is to play.  Modern artificial turf systems use special fibers, infill, and backing materials that make them act like real grass.  You can change the way synthetic turf responds to, and rolls the ball to fit your needs, from driving ranges to putting greens and tee boxes.  This makes it possible to practice at a high level, especially in places where it's hard to keep real grass alive all year.

Applications for Every Level of Play

 Artificial turf can be used for a lot of different things, like setting up a commercial golf course or building a personal practice green.  Professionals often train on synthetic turf in the off-season when the weather makes it hard to get to well-kept natural greens.  It is used by training facilities to make sure that swing mechanics, putting drills and chipping practice are always the same.  Homeowners like having a backyard green that doesn't need to be taken care of all the time.

 Artificial turf is good for golf simulators and indoor training centers, too.  These setups give you the feel of an outdoor course in a controlled setting, which is important for improving your skills, and getting lessons all year round.  Synthetic golf surfaces can be customized in terms of pile height, color, speed, and shock absorption, making them suitable for both beginners and pros.

 You can also customize turf installations so that they fit in perfectly with the landscaping around them.  This makes a space that looks good, and works well, whether it's in a backyard, on a rooftop, or in a commercial training center.  Artificial turf is a smart choice for anyone who wants to improve their golf game, because it saves money in the long run and works well.

Choosing the Right Turf Partner

 The quality of the product and how well it is installed have a big impact on how well artificial turf works.  If you work with a trusted supplier, you can be sure that you will get turf made just for golf, with UV protection, drainage systems and a realistic feel underfoot.

 We sell high-quality artificial golf turf at OSMS Turf that is made to give you a great playing experience.  Our products are both long-lasting and realistic so they work well for both large golf courses and small putting greens.  We work closely with our clients to figure out their space, play needs, and budget and then we come up with personalized solutions that work for both fun and work.

 Along with providing turf, we also offer professional installation services that make sure the base is ready, the leveling is done, the infill is applied and the job is finished.  This all-around method makes a smooth, true-rolling surface that looks like a natural green and can last for years.

Make Your Practice Better All Year

 The main reason to buy artificial turf is to improve your ability to practice and play.  Synthetic turf doesn't have the same problems as natural grass. It has consistent ball behavior, needs little maintenance, and lasts in all weather.  You don't have to worry about mowing schedules or muddy surfaces; you can just work on your technique, rhythm and form.

 High-quality artificial golf turf is a reliable and professional-grade solution whether you want to improve your short game, make a training space for your students, or just play casual rounds with friends at home.  Check out all the customizable options from OSMS Turf and turn your practice area into a place where you can play golf at a high level.

Best Backyard Putting Green Layouts for Small Spaces

Having a backyard putting green is a dream for many golf enthusiasts. It allows you to practice your short game anytime without leaving home. However, if you have limited space, designing an effective putting green can be challenging. The good news is that even small backyards can accommodate a functional and aesthetically pleasing putting green with the right layout.

In this guide, we’ll explore the best backyard putting green layouts for small spaces, ensuring you get the most out of your available area while improving your golf skills.

Key Considerations for Small Backyard Putting Greens

Before diving into specific layouts, it’s important to consider a few key factors that will influence your design:

Available Space

Measure your backyard to determine how much room you have. Even a 10’ x 10’ area can work for a compact putting green.

Slope and Terrain

A flat surface is ideal, but slight slopes can add challenge. If your yard is uneven, you may need to level the ground or build a raised platform.

Material Choice

Artificial turf is the best option for small spaces because it requires minimal maintenance and provides a consistent roll. Natural grass is an alternative but needs more upkeep.

Hole Placement

Strategic hole placement can maximize practice opportunities. Multiple holes or movable cups allow for varied drills.

Obstacles and Breaks

Adding subtle breaks or small obstacles (like gentle slopes or ridges) can make practice more realistic.

Now, let’s explore the best layouts for small backyard putting greens.

1. The Compact Straight Putt Layout

Best For: Beginners or those with very limited space

Dimensions: 8’ x 12’

This simple design focuses on straight putts, perfect for honing your accuracy.

Features:

A single straight putting lane

Two or three holes at varying distances

Smooth, flat artificial turf for consistent rolls

Benefits:

Easy to install

Great for practicing short putts

Low maintenance

2. The L-Shaped Putting Green

Best For: Intermediate golfers who want to practice breaking putts

Dimensions: 10’ x 12’ (with an extension)

An L-shaped layout adds a slight turn, allowing you to work on angled putts.

Features:

A straight section leading into a 90-degree curve

Multiple hole placements along both sections

A gentle slope near the bend for added challenge

Benefits:

Maximizes corner spaces

Introduces breaking putts without requiring a large area

Provides variety in practice

3. The Multi-Tiered Mini Green

Best For: Golfers who want elevation changes

Dimensions: 12’ x 10’

If your yard has natural slopes or you’re willing to build a raised section, a multi-tiered green adds complexity.

Features:

Two or three small tiers with slight elevation changes

Holes placed at different levels

Bunkers or fringe areas for chipping practice

Benefits:

Simulates real-course conditions

Enhances uphill and downhill putting skills

Compact yet challenging

4. The Circular Putting Green

Best For: Practicing putts from all angles

Dimensions: 10’ diameter

A circular design allows you to putt from multiple directions, improving your adaptability.

Features:

A central hole with surrounding fringe

Slight undulations for breaks

Durable synthetic turf for all-weather use

Benefits:

Space-efficient

Encourages varied stroke practice

Visually appealing

5. The Modular Panel System

Best For: Renters or those who want flexibility

Dimensions: Customizable

If you need a portable solution, modular putting panels can be rearranged to fit your space.

Features:

Interlocking panels for easy assembly

Adjustable hole positions

Lightweight and removable

Benefits:

No permanent installation required

Can expand or shrink as needed

Ideal for patios or temporary setups

Tips for Maintaining Your Small Backyard Putting Green

To keep your putting green in top condition:

Brush synthetic turf regularly to keep fibers upright.

Remove debris like leaves and dirt to prevent uneven rolls.

Check for drainage issues to avoid water pooling.

Rotate hole positions to prevent wear in one spot.

Final Thoughts

Even with limited space, you can create an effective backyard putting green that improves your game. Whether you choose a straight-putt layout, an L-shaped design, or a multi-tiered setup, the key is maximizing functionality within your available area.

By considering your space, materials, and practice needs, you can design a putting green that fits perfectly in your small backyard—and helps you sink more putts on the course.

Start planning your layout today and enjoy the convenience of practicing golf right at home!

Allergies and Turf: How Artificial Grass Can Help Sufferers

Grass lawns are indeed lovely, but allergies are often a downside. Grass pollen can cause sneezing, itching, and other uncomfortable symptoms for many, especially during particular seasons. However, the arrival of artificial grass makes it possible for these allergy sufferers to reclaim their outdoors. We will discuss how artificial turf can lessen allergy symptoms and the advantages of artificial turf, especially for those interested in putting green installation in Orange County.

Understanding Grass Allergies

Grass allergies occur when the immune system overreacts to proteins found in grass pollen, leading to a range of symptoms. Common grasses, such as Bermuda, Fescue, and Kentucky Bluegrass, produce significant amounts of pollen, particularly during late spring and early summer. For individuals with sensitivities, this can result in chronic sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy eyes, and other allergic reactions that make enjoying outdoor activities challenging.

The Solution: Artificial Grass

Artificial grass, often referred to as synthetic turf, offers an attractive and practical alternative for those who suffer from grass allergies. Here are some compelling reasons why artificial turf is an ideal choice for allergy sufferers:

1. No Pollen Production

The most vital advantage of artificial grass is that there is no pollen production. Hence, allergy sufferers can enjoy their lawns, gardens, or putting greens without having to dread their allergic reactions due to airborne pollen. Artificial grass provides an all-comfort and allergy-free environment for outdoor gatherings or simply afternoons spent basking in the sun.

2. Reduced Exposure to Weeds and Mold

In their natural habitat, grasses are accompanied by other grasses, weeds, or plants, which may aggravate allergies. Consequently, many allergy patients are sensitive to the pollen of common weeds such as ragweed, which only adds to their sufferings. With artificial grass, the chances of unwanted plants causing an allergic reaction are greatly reduced. Furthermore, synthetic turf promotes little to no fungal and mildew development, which are also other contributing factors of seasonal allergies.

3. Low Maintenance, Less Stress

Maintaining a natural lawn often involves routine mowing, fertilizing, and watering—activities that not only take time but also expose individuals to allergens. By opting for artificial turf, allergy sufferers can enjoy a low-maintenance solution. Synthetic grass does not require mowing or fertilizing, meaning fewer opportunities for exposure to allergens that can be found in lawn care products or during grass-cutting activities.

4. Aesthetic Appeal and Durability

The best artificial turf for putting greens and lawns offers a lush, green appearance year-round, without the dead patches or yellowing that sometimes affects natural grass. High-quality synthetic grass products are designed to mimic the look and feel of natural grass while being durable enough to withstand heavy foot traffic. For individuals who enjoy outdoor activities, such as playing golf or hosting gatherings, artificial turf provides a beautiful and functional space.

Putting Green Installation in Orange County

For golf enthusiasts with grass allergies, artificial turf is particularly beneficial for creating a putting green in their backyard. Put in an artificial putting green in Orange County and spend a comfortable year-round golfing without the hassle of the real grass allergy.

When considering putting green installation Orange County, it's vital to choose the right contractor and the best artificial turf for putting greens. Look for companies specializing in synthetic turf that understand the unique needs and preferences of their clients. They can help in selecting the right product and ensuring proper installation.

Additional Benefits of Artificial Turf

Apart from its allergy-fighting properties, artificial grass comes with several additional advantages, including:

Water Conservation: In areas like Orange County, where water restrictions can be a concern, synthetic grass eliminates the need for regular watering. This not only conserves water but also reduces the maintenance costs associated with lawn care.

Environmental Impact: Artificial turf eliminates the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides, creating a safer environment for children, pets, and local wildlife.

Versatility: Beyond allergies, synthetic grass can be used in a variety of settings—balconies, playgrounds, and sports fields—making it a versatile option for various outdoor needs.

Investing in the best artificial turf for putting green not only enhances your home’s landscape but also promotes a better quality of life for allergy sufferers. If you’re in Orange County and considering putting in green installation, it's time to explore how artificial grass can be the perfect solution for your outdoor space, making the enjoyment of your lawn a reality, regardless of the season!

Biohacking Lessons for Health and Beauty

A quick summary of "Smarter, Not Harder" by Dave Asprey.

Simplified for easy implementation. (For more info, read the full book.)

─━━━━━━⊱✿⊰━━━━━━─

Nature abhors waste, and have thus made it so be as lazy as possible. Which is why doing things that requires an effort is hard, and your willpower depletes fast.

In the gym, focus on pushing yourself to the limit fast and hard, then stop or take a break. It will yield better results than trying to go slow and long.

If you want to be healthy, make it easy to choose the healthy choices. The less work, the better.

On Food

Avoid synthetic and processed food as much as possible.

Your body works best when it has all the raw materials you need, and you are not going to get them just by eating food. Although eating the right food will help. So make sure to buy supplements to get the vitamins and minerals you need.

Many types of plant food carries anti-nutritions, which is something that hinders the body in properly absorbing vitamins.

(Plants that does not want to be eaten use this defense, like potatoes and nuts, while fruits that do want to be eaten is better for you as long as you avoid the seeds.)

─━━━━━━⊱✿⊰━━━━━━─

Avoid or Limit...

Nuts (especially almond, with pine being least harmful), seeds, beans, legumes (especially chickpeas), whole grains, soy, corn, quinoa, grain (rye is the least harmful), raw spinach, kale, rhubarb, uncooked leafy greens, Nightshade vegetables (potato, eggplant, peppers, tomatoes).

Avoid the unhealthy Omega 6 fatty acid. (Omega 3 is good, omega 6 is bad.)

Avoid food fried in vegetable oil, especially canola oil and sun-seed oil. (Olive oil is not good either, if less bad than the above-mentioned.)

Moderate consumption of omega 6 (like in Avocado) is fine. But don't overdo it.

Avoid processed vegetable and seed oils, poultry fat, and industrially raised pork fat.

Avoid any animal products from animals raised with industrial methods and/or fed non natural products in general.

Especially avoid milk with added vitamin D. This type is highly processed.

Store bought dressings, sauces and the likes usually contain unhealthy things.

Avoid fish from the sea, and industrially raised fish. (The ocean is so polluted these days that you are very likely to eat microplastics with the fish.)

Any kind of fish should be limited as well, as they do have bad things in them that could be a problem in bigger doses.

Avoid picked and canned food, as well as smoked meat. Limit shellfish, chocolate and coffee.

It goes without saying that you should also limit sugarcane sugar.

If possible, avoid industrially grown vegetables, and anything grown with any form of chemicals, pesticides (even so-called "safe" ones), and genetically modified stuff.

By and large choose meat from grass-fed cows, and avoid meat from poultry (especially chicken) and pork. (Mainly because they are industrial raised, and in ways far worse than cows when it comes to chemicals.)

Avoid all forms of plant-based meat substitute. They are processed and unhealthy.

Avoid protein powder. If you want to improve your muscles, go for lean meat from grass fed cows.

Avoid any form of artificial sweetener. White sugar is quite frankly healthier, and less likely to make you fat. (Because artificial sweeteners make you crave fat and sugar, thus making you eat unhealthy stuff as well as filling you with chemicals that make it harder to loose weight.)

Avoid MSG like the plague. In some countries/states, this may even be illegal or limited as to how much one can put un food, but check to make sure what your country/state's policy on it is.

Where it is legal, MSG is widely used in fast foods, snack foods, processed meat, canned soups, condiments, and seasoning blends.

─━━━━━━⊱✿⊰━━━━━━─

Can eat...

Ripe Fruits and berries that are in-season.

Meat and dairy products from grass-fed cows (Guernsey or Jersey cows are best), sheep, camels, goats or buffalo.

(But make sure it is either raw milk, unpasteurized, non-homogenized or at least as little processed as possible. From a farm with high health standards on their products.)

Raw, unprocessed milk also have a large amount of healthy proteins in it.

Organically grown food where there is no chemicals of any kind used. (Be careful of this, because some countries allow food to be balled as ecological/organic even if they use pesticide.)

Wild game may be more healthy, as it has lived a natural life, eating natural things.

Pigs are tricky, because their diet matters so much. Even raised on grains can be bad, while a more natural and healthy diet makes the meat healthier too.

Sushi-grade fish from a restaurant that prides itself in ensuring top-quality. Younger fish is better than older fish, as they have had less time to soak up pollution.

Oysters, clams, and mussels.

Plants low in anti-nutritients. Such as carrots (raw carrots is detoxing for your gut), celery, lettuce, broccoli, and asparagus.

Tips

Vegetables can be made less harmful by being processed in certain ways. Usually the ways your ancestors 500 years ago made them. Like sourdough bread.

Cruciferous vegetables and cabbage are good for you. But be sure to cook them properly, and do not buy them in winter. These are especially important to get fresh.

Always eat seasonally --like nature intended. Your body prefers to eat what is naturally in season, and plans and fruits in-season is fresher, healthier, and less likely to be filled with the chemicals used to grow them out of season.

Shop at farmer's markeds, and check the website of dairy and meat companies.

If you like to eat a lot of fish, buy supplements that bind the toxic metals in the fish. And make sure to only buy high quality fish from a trustworthy supplier. (Ideally stick with wild, freshwater fish as well. Salmon is a good fish.)

You can limit toxins and anti-nutrients by removing the peel. The peel has the highest concentration of bad stuff.

Which means white rice is better than brown rice, as it has removed the husk.

Coffee and chocolate is actually good for you in small amounts. (But bad in high amounts.)

Choose chocolate with more cocoa and less sugar. If you make your own, you can control what goes in it. And some brands are more health-conscious than others. Choose wisely.

Remember to enjoy yourself and your food. The worst diet is always the diet you hate. The best diet is a healthy one filled with things you love.

For healthy fiber, eat artichokes, avocado, and acacia gum.

Be sure to eat a lot of herbs and spices. Or you can create an alcoholic tonic and take a tablespoon of it every day.

Thyme, rosemary, oregano, turmeric, and vanilla are healthy. Spices and sea salt is very important to your health.

.─━━━━━━⊱✿⊰━━━━━━─

Should Eat...

Fat. Ideally animal fat from animals with a natural, healthy diet. You need more high-quality fat than most people think.

At least 50% of the fat should be saturated fat. (Tho 75% is better.)

Salt. Despite the popular hype, chances are you are not getting enough.

But choose sea salt over refined iodized salt. Sea salt is healthy, refined iodized salt is not.

High quality protein. Very important.

Fiber. You need to feed the bacterial microbiome in your stomach. You do this with fiber. But as many things that contains fiber also contains anti-nutrients, make sure to not overdo it. And balance it out with the right vitamins, minerals and so on.

Carbohydrates. A basic rule is that they are fine, as long as you understand exactly what you're getting, and choose the good options.

But be aware that carbohydrates tend to cause a spike of energy, followed by a crash and cravings.

On Vitamins

DAKE - Vitamin D, A, K2, and E is the most important vitamins your body needs. They work together and need each other to work best. So take all of them together.

B vitamins are good for your skin and hair, and vitamin B12 improves your mood and can lower depression and anxiety.

These vitamins mentioned bind with animal fat, and is absorbed better when taken with a meal because of this.

─━━━━━━⊱✿⊰━━━━━━─

Essential Minerals

Iron, copper, zinc, manganese, calcium, and magnesium.

The most important ones are calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and sulfur.

You almost certainly need higher dosages of these than what is recommended. (In part because much of the vitamins are stored in body-fat --especially for those with a lot of body-fat--, and because much of what you eat counteracts the vitamins, as mentioned above.)

Iron is tricky. You need it, but too much of it can cause problems.

Trace minerals important for health are; Molybdenum, zinc, iodine, selenium, cobalt, copper, fluorine, vanadium, and manganese.

Ultra-trace minerals are also important.

─━━━━━━⊱✿⊰━━━━━━─

Sleep

Enough high quality sleep is important for you.

I will edit this post when I have read more of the book, to add new things.

Remember...

When you study biohacking, and the intricacies of the body and it's chemical reactions work, you will sometimes (or often) find that it goes against conventional wisdom.

This is because conventional wisdom takes each part of of it's context. ("This plant have that vitamin") and it fails to consider the biological and chemical processes involved ("can the body absorb this vitamin from that plant?" "How does that plant interact with other plans and vitamins?"), and that makes a big difference when it comes to your health and well-being.

If you want all the nitty-gritty details of the how's and the why's; Read the book.

Hopefully this will prove a usable, easier-to-read, substitute for all those less inclined to read heavy-on-the-science texts.
