cw: butcher!simon, darkfic, dead animals, no butchery depicted, temperature torture, implied limb removal. definitely not for everyone. 490 words.

you find yourself hanging between pig carcasses in cold storage. swaying. chain creaking.

the chill sinks beneath your skin, numbing you in long, creeping waves. your fingers twitch, but grow stiffer by the minute. slowly ceding control to the ice. the threat of unconsciousness stalks the edges of your vision and mind, willing you to close your straining eyes and frosted lashes. find peace in oblivion. but the thought of what happens after keeps you stubborn.

of course, there are consequences for staying awake, too.

fifteen minutes, simon said. lettin' you off easy, he said. an eternity spent sailing the cocytus would be more comforting.

you're on the descent, about to pass orpheus on the stairs, when the door opens. the rush of warm air stings and bites, stirring your reflexes and making you thrash weakly. he chuckles as he takes you off the hooks, casting aside your shackles. he throws you over his shoulder, knocking the air from your lungs in scrapes, and pats your flank.

he lays you out on the table, a wet and sticky puddle smears and squishes beneath your back. he looms, his brutish form blocking out the sterile light above. something thick and heavy falls over you, slightly damp and smelling of iron, but you make no move to shed it. you can't, anyway. it's warm and solid but malleable like worn leather.

simon takes shears to your clothes. cutting them from your body and replacing your cover as he goes. his hand slips to your throat and wrists every few minutes. the thick pads of his fingers wrapped in elastic press down firm, monitoring.

he tuts about the kitchen. the longer you lay there, the more feeling you regain. the clearer your mind becomes. you realize your blanket isn't a blanket at all, but his stained apron. still sopping from a day's work.

he strokes your cheek when he catches you staring, petrified.

"feelin' warmer?"

you barely nod, the muscles and tendons of your neck uncooperative. he cups your chin, dragging it down and up, ignoring your whimper of pain.

"yeah? good. let's 'ave a chat."

simon drags a stool along the linoleum to sit behind your head, forcing you to roll your eyes back as far as they'll go. he pets your temples and forehead, closely examining you.

"tried to run. not smart, pet," he leans close, breath fanning over your face. "makes it the third time. remember what i told ya?"

an object clatters onto the table beside you, heavy enough to rattle a small shockwave through your back. his eyes don't stray from your face, but his head tilts expectantly. swallowing thickly, you crane your neck, nerves screaming in protest.

you see the handle first. then the long, steel body. the teeth. a hand saw longer than your arm, one you've seen him take to the pigs in the freezer.

"it's a shame. liked your legs."

A Sick Day

It’s not a cold. It’s not. It’s just… allergies or something. Y/N definitely does not need to stay home. Bruce disagrees.

B (24) & Y/N (22)

A/N: recently got a puppy and he has taken all of my free time <3 Also, this fic is unedited and proud.

“Get your coats and turn on your radiators, Gotham. An ice front is coming in and it’s coming in hot. Or should I say cold? No, this isn’t the work of Mr.Freeze, he’s still in Arkham and we hope he stays there. This is the work of a winter storm. While the snow will be beautiful, it will also be dangerous.”

Y/N scoffed at her computer. The newscasters always made such a big deal about winter storms. Nothing can be worse than what they had to deal with when Mr.Freeze escaped a year ago. She was stuck in her apartment for three days with no groceries, splitting a box of stale Triscuits with Carrie three meals a day. If anything, cold weather is more an inconvenience than a danger. Plus, it’s been teetering on 45 degrees out the past week. How much colder would it get?

-

So… It got fucking cold.

Gotham had hit record-low temperatures. So low it hadn’t been a natural occurrence since the 60s. Lucky for Carrie, she had chemo this week and the hospital had gotten spooked by the recent weather reports so they asked her to stay overnight. While the hospital bill wouldn’t be nice, it’s way better than what Y/N is dealing with. 

Her radiator is shitting out on her. The whole building's radiator system actually. Normally when the weather is this bad she would opt to work at home, like everyone else, except she can’t take the cold. Her body in particular can’t take the cold. It could be from the shitty surroundings in her apartment building or from sniffly Nathan who works in Wayne Enterprise’s marketing department, but she thinks she’s coming down with something. What’s worse is that the cold weather is making it worse.

Her whole chest felt like it was burning, which is a real contrast to how cold she was walking to work. She couldn’t get her car past the snow and she needs warmth and warmth is at Wayne Enterprises. So, she trudges into the empty building, up the elevator, and sits at her desk with a groan.

Breathing heavily, she shrugged her coat off her shoulders and pressed her freezing fingertips underneath her armpits. She looked at her reflection in her desktop monitor. Her cheeks were bright red and she had dark circles under her eyes. At least no one else was here to see her. No one else was here to see her…

Would it hurt to take a nap? No one would know. No one would see. 

Y/N stood and stepped out into the hallway. Not. A. Single. Soul. Oh, she is so napping.

-

Bruce had chained up his tires this morning and headed to Wayne Enterprise. It was too bright for The Tumbler and he needed to gather a few equipment items from Lucious Fox’s bunker. It’s not like anyone was here anyway. There was not a single car in the garage, not even Y/N’s, which is really saying something. 

He perused the bunker, grabbing a few small but powerful heaters, fleece-lined leather for his suit, and a couple of other items, stuffing them into his duffle bag. He was used to the cold, training in it, even living in it on one occasion, and the people of Gotham needed him so he’d be there. 

Pulling the duffle bag over his shoulder with ease, he headed out of the bunker and towards the elevator. He left a particular file that wasn’t meant for Wayne Enterprise in his office, while no one was here, you can never be too careful. Except… There was someone here. 

He could only assume the head poking out from her coat was Y/N and she was sleeping? In the office? Stepping closer to her, he noticed, even under all her layers, she was trembling. Pulling her coat collar from her face, he finally got a good look at her. She was flushed and had broken out into a sweat, even her ears were bright red. He held onto her shoulder and shook her lightly.

“Y/N,” Bruce spoke softly. She ground turning away from him. He slapped a hand to her forehead trying to gauge her temperature. She definitely had a fever, it couldn’t be lower than a 100. Slowly her eyes opened at the disruption, then became wide at who was standing over her. 

“What are you doing here?” 

“I’m not the one sleeping in the office.”

“Sorry,” she mumbled embarrassed, “I don’t know how that happened-”

“Y/N you’re burning up. What are you even doing here?”

“Why does someone come to work, Bruce?”

“You’re not working. You’re sleeping.”

“I had the intent to work-”

“Y/N.”

“I just felt like coming in,” she snapped. In truth, she was embarrassed. Here was her billionaire boss. If he didn’t feel like sleeping in his mansion, he could stay the night at his penthouse. She was sure he had other properties as well, meanwhile her radiator couldn’t even stay on when it gets chilly outside.

Bruce held her stare with a firm gaze and narrowed his eyes.

“You’re going home.” It wasn’t a question and he definitely didn’t ask as he lifted her under her armpits from the couch and stood her up on the floor. He took her coat roughly from the couch and threw it over her shoulders. Bruce turned to pack the rest of her things up. Y/N was so tired, but she was also so frustrated. She had just gotten here. It had taken her so long to walk here. “Let’s go. Where’d you park?”

She remained silent and looked away from him. 

“Y/N. Where did you park?”

“I’m not going home. I just got here.”

“You’re sick you’re going home,” before she could speak he added, “and don’t say your car is in the garage because I know it’s not in there.”

“...I parked on the street.”

He tilted his head examining her, “No you didn’t. The snow us up to the stairs. Where’s your car?”

His question came out as more of a statement, demanding of an answer. She wouldn’t look at him and he grew both frustrated and disappointed. “For the love of god, please tell me you did not walk here.”

“My car couldn’t get past the snow!” she loudly admitted, “Is that what you wanted to hear-”

“Y/N. When your car can’t get past the snow, it means you stay home!” 

He held his hand to his brow, trying to sooth the tension in his head. Throwing his duffle bag and her work bag easily over his shoulder, he didn’t give her much of a chance to say anything as he grabbed her by the hand to pull her toward the elevator. Even in his frustrated state, shaking his head and rolling his eyes, his grip on her was still gentle.

Stubborn as ever, she would let him pull her to the car. She would let him buckle her in. She would let him drive her to her broken, cold home, but she wouldn’t say a damn thing about the radiator. None. Of. His. Business.

[She’s even more stubborn when she’s sick.]

And she did just that. She let Bruce Wayne take her hand, blaming the warmth in her face on her high fever. She let him tug her to his expensive McLaren 650s Spider with a new shiny set of winter tires. She enjoyed seeing it too and part of her enjoyed annoying him. And she let him plop her into his expensive shiny car, buckle her in, and drive her home. What she didn’t expect was him wanting to walk her inside…

“I can get inside just fine, thank you.” Y/N attempted to push him back towards his car. Her hand held to his chest and pushed firmly. He didn’t even budge. Not even a sway.

“You’re not walking up three flights of stairs alone in your condition.”

“My condition?” she paused. “How do you know I live on the third floor?”

“You put your address on your resume,” he lied smoothly.

“I didn’t know you read my resume-”

“Stop stalling.”

She tried to keep him out, she really did, but he was so persistent. They made it to the front door, thank you Mr.Wayne I can take it from here. Nope, he needed to help her up the stairs, so they made it up the stairs. Thank you, Mr.Wayne I think I can make it inside by myself. Nope, he had already made it up the stairs; he might as well finish the journey. They made it to her front door. Thank you, Mr.Wayne you can go now. Nope, there’s no reason he can’t sit her things down for her.

In her heart, she knew there was no way he didn’t notice the cool, crisp air in the hallway. The way not a single apartment radiated heat and she knew he had to be suspicious. Her hand shook in shame as she unlocked her apartment and opened the door up, head down. 

Letting himself in, she heard a deep sigh, radiating from his chest, “Y/N, you can’t stay here-”

“Stop-”

“It’s freezing in here-”

“You don’t think I know that?” Once again, he grabbed her hand pulling her into the hallway, shaking her head. He took the keys straight out of her hand, locking the apartment door. “What are you doing? We just got here?”

“You’re staying with me this weekend.” 

“Are you insane?”

“I have a house with over fifteen bedrooms. I think you can find somewhere to sleep.”

“This is so unprofessional.”

“I don’t care.” With her apartment keys he walked back toward the stairs at an alarming pace. She had no choice but to follow.

“Bruce, I swear to God I am not staying at the manor.”

-

“Welcome to Wayne Manor Miss.Y/N.”

ICU

Where am I? What happened? I was lying on a hospital bed in a large white room, surrounded by various medical equipment. My neck was immobilized by a medical cervical collar.

I lay on my back, staring at the ceiling. An attempt to raise my hand was unsuccessful. My body was completely paralyzed. The room smelled too strongly of... medicine. The quiet beeping of the machines created a monotonous background, reminding me that I was chained to this bed. These tubes... What are they for?

I couldn't even speak... In my mouth, I felt a cold, smooth plastic endotracheal tube that restricted the movement of my tongue and cheeks. Could I not breathe on my own? It seemed so. This large blue plastic holder on my face... to keep me from pulling out the tube? The air supplied by the ventilator had a constant temperature and humidity. Each ventilation cycle was accompanied by a characteristic click of the valve opening and closing, allowing air into my lungs.

I looked at the ceiling, trying to distract myself from these unpleasant sensations, but to no avail. Finally, a nurse came in. I tried to give a sign, but she didn't pay attention. I at least wanted to understand why I was in the hospital. And why was I connected to a ventilator. But she only adjusted the IV drip with a mechanical movement, as if I were just another object in the room. The nurse's gaze slid over me indifferently. In her eyes, I saw only another patient.

A lot of time has passed. The doctor came in, glanced at the monitor, and said, "The condition is stable." I still didn't understand what was happening to me. "Can you hear us well?" she added, but there was no warmth in her voice. "Of course you can't speak, but try to blink if you hear me," the doctor continued, watching my eyelids.

“Your body is paralyzed, so we are providing you with mechanical ventilation, enteral nutrition through a nasogastric tube, and parenteral drug administration through intravenous catheters. In addition, urinary catheter is used to maintain body hygiene. This is a complex of measures necessary to support your vital functions. We will regularly conduct examinations and adjust treatment depending on your condition.”

The doctor left. Tears rolled down my face, but I couldn't wipe them away. I waited again. I waited a long time. Suddenly, the door opened, and a young nurse entered the room. The nurse paused over my tests and frowned slightly. "We have some news for you," she said slowly.

Could it be worse? I can't move or breathe. I'm connected to medical devices. The white ceiling, the colorless wall, the hum of the machines – all this reminds me of the hopelessness of my situation. The nurse uttered this phrase as if pronouncing a sentence. "Soon you will have a new operation. Of course, you will be connected to a ventilator. You will have a tracheostomy. But at least you will be able to speak in a whisper." My eyes were dry from crying. What will it change? I will still be chained to this bed…

Jamil Info Compilation part 18: Kalim(pt7)

Jamil often reflects on how Kalim ignores his input, does not listen and will literally sneak away to do things of which Jamil does not approve.

We see them argue over Kalim’s management of a parade, with Jamil saying he will do it while Kalim insists on helping, telling Jamil that he is a “worrywart” and that he will bring in well-trained animals until Jamil reluctantly relents (“…it seems you refuse to listen to me.”)

When Scarabia becomes cold at the start of Fairy Gala Kalim ignores Jamil to go off on his own, only to return immediately due to the temperature.

At Kalim’s request Jamil makes a warm soup for the members of the dorm, but Kalim insists on helping despite Jamil telling him that he needs to be monitoring the students as housewarden. Kalim follows Jamil to the kitchen despite his protests.

During Phantom Bride Jamil refuses outright to help any of the captured students, knowing that his participation would result in Kalim following him, and “There would be consequences for my entire family if (Kalim) were exposed to any danger.”

After the conclusion of the event Kalim ignores Jamil’s protests and runs to a storeroom to get an albert chain for Lilia to pose with. Jamil ends up running after him, leading to Jamil stressing over Lilia’s treatment of the antique accessory.

While preparing for the opening ceremonies Kalim suddenly becomes dissatisfied with the design of the ceremonial robes and decides to ask the headmage to make them a brighter color two hours before orientation is to start.

He runs off to find Crowley despite Jamil’s protests, and when Jamil catches up to him Kalim responds, “We can’t afford to waste time talking. We could be late for orientation!”

Jamil tries to get him to return to the dorm and finish preparations, unsuccessfully.

In a vignette we see Sebek follow students to Scarabia dorm on accident, leading to Jamil suspecting him of being an assassin who may be targeting Kalim. Jamil advises caution and Kalim ignores him to say hello.

Jamil reminds him not to trust new people so easily and Kalim calls him a worrywart.

After no one in Scarabia volunteers to take Sebek back to Diasomnia, Kalim tells Jamil to walk him back instead, saying, “If you won’t go, I will.” As the welcome party cannot proceed without Kalim, Jamil escorts Sebek against his better judgement.

It is soon revealed that Kalim followed them regardless, and the two get into an argument about Jamil wearing his hood, with Kalim repeatedly telling him to pull it down and Jamil repeatedly telling him to back off (Jamil may have been flustered by a compliment).

In a different vignette, after eating both his and Jamil’s lunches for the day, Kalim tries to apologize to Jamil by waiting in line for both of them in the school cafeteria.

He then brings stew for Jamil after Jamil requested pasta (possibly another example of Kalim's poor memory).

At the end of Book 6 (after several long conversations with Leona about his own abilities, his arrogance and his position vs. his potential) Jamil finally acquiesces to Kalim, allowing him to prepare forks and plates so that everyone can share a tart together.

Sonic Chronicles: Return of the Dark Brotherhood Chapter 1 Is Now Live!

Preview:

The loneliness was once Tails' only dependable friend, there morning, noon and night. His childhood on West Side Island left him isolated. Others would tease him, call him names and even physically assault him just because they saw him as different. He once wanted nothing more than to be alone, but that all changed when a certain blue hedgehog came into his life. As time went on, Tails formed friendships with others, becoming a confident and brave hero.

But all that changed days ago. Now he was alone once more on this huge ship he himself constructed. Tails exhaled, watching as the steam of his breath vaporised into the cold air. His sky blue eyes veiled towards the large window claimed by the freezing temperatures. He could no longer see the outside world lest he wiped the windows clean from within, but Tails lost his motivation to do so days ago.

Damage to the Blue Typhoon forced the main generators to shut down. The only thing keeping the ship operational was the backup power. Darkness claimed most of the ship, the interior only illuminated by the gentle red rays of the emergency lights. His eyes averted towards the screen in front of him. The ship's radar continued scanning for life, but the only objects that came into frame were the rocks from the asteroid field. The asteroids occasionally bounced against the ship. Tails once jolted at each bump, but he had since grown to tune the noise out.

He leaned back in the captain's chair, solemnly gazing towards the condensed windows that blocked his line of sight from the infinite continuum of space. As time went on, the loneliness felt more like solitude, for one finds ways to cope. Yet to have real company of one who cared for him, that would be sweet indeed. He wanted to cry, to let the universe know of his grief. But any desire to cry had been pushed to the back of his mind long ago.

This loneliness was a vice on his heart, squeezing with just enough pressure to be a constant pain. It killed Tails every day just a little bit more, taking what was once his inner light and replacing it with a darkness that overshadows each moment. He was destined to die on this ship. Either the cold would eventually take him, or maybe the monsters that took his friends from him would return to finish the job. Sonic, Amy, Knuckles…

All gone.

When friends feel like paper chains in the rain and the sky holds nothing but the promise of more storms, life is lonely. When all Tails wanted is a hand to hold or an arm around his shoulders and none came, the world became cold and empty, a slow poison for the soul. Tails longed to be loved and nurtured, and to do the same for others. He was born to be in tribes with social bonds that last a lifetime. But now he would never see them again.

A soft beeping entranced his attention, drawing Tails back to reality. His eyes widened, hastily bringing his attention back to the radar. A friendly tag appeared within the screen, the monitor alerting him of their approach. All traces of depression and loneliness faded away within an instant.

Without hesitation, Tails quickly grabbed the headset and placed it on his head. "Is anyone there?! Sonic? Is that you? Sonic? Amy? Knuckles?!"

Whether in a warehouse, during transportation, or at the point of sale, the software continuously monitors temperature and alerts stakeholders to any deviations from the desired range.

Cold chain management: Fresh produce often requires cold chain management to preserve freshness and reduce the risk of bacterial growth. The software helps businesses ensure that the cold chain is maintained at all times, providing alerts if there are any interruptions or temperature fluctuations during transport or storage.

By maintaining temperature control throughout the entire supply chain, fresh produce software helps reduce the risks associated with spoilage and contamination, ensuring that food remains safe and of high quality.

4. Enhancing Quality Control and Reducing Contamination Risks

Fresh produce software can help businesses implement stronger quality control processes, ensuring that only safe, high-quality produce reaches consumers. The software integrates quality checks at every stage of the supply chain, helping identify any risks or issues early.

Inspection and testing integration: Fresh produce software allows businesses to incorporate quality control checks, such as visual inspections or laboratory testing, into their workflow. This can include checking for pesticides, contaminants, or physical damage to the produce, ensuring that only safe items are shipped to customers.

Contamination tracking: If contamination occurs—whether due to improper handling, storage, or transportation—the software can quickly trace the issue back to its source, isolating the affected batch or lot. By identifying the root cause of contamination, businesses can take corrective actions to prevent similar issues in the future.

Supplier and vendor management: Fresh produce software also facilitates better communication with suppliers and vendors, ensuring that all parties meet the necessary food safety standards. By tracking the certifications and inspections of suppliers, businesses can ensure that the produce they receive is free from contaminants.

5. Managing Recalls and Minimizing Food Safety Risks

Despite best efforts, foodborne illnesses or contamination issues may still arise, requiring swift action to protect consumers and maintain brand integrity. Fresh produce software helps businesses manage recalls more effectively and minimize the impact on public health.

Faster recall management: When contamination is detected, fresh produce software allows businesses to quickly trace the affected products back to their source. By identifying the specific lot or batch in question, businesses can initiate a targeted recall, limiting the number of products affected and reducing the risk to consumers.

Automated alerts and notifications: In the event of a recall, the software can automatically send alerts and notifications to retailers, distributors, and consumers who may have received the affected products. This timely communication helps minimize the risk of consuming contaminated produce and ensures that the company takes quick corrective actions.

By providing tools for efficient and thorough recall management, fresh produce software helps businesses protect both their customers and their brand reputation.

6. Enhancing Consumer Confidence and Trust

In today’s food market, consumers are increasingly demanding transparency about the origin and safety of their food. Fresh produce software helps businesses provide this transparency by making traceability information easily accessible.

Consumer-facing traceability: Many fresh produce software platforms include consumer-facing features that allow customers to scan QR codes or barcodes on packaging to access detailed information about the product's origin, harvest date, and handling process. This gives consumers confidence that the produce they purchase is safe, fresh, and responsibly sourced.

Building brand trust: By demonstrating a commitment to food safety and traceability, businesses can build trust with their customers. Transparency in the food supply chain not only improves safety but also helps companies strengthen their reputation and differentiate themselves in a competitive market.

Conclusion

Fresh produce software plays a crucial role in improving traceability and food safety throughout the entire supply chain. From ensuring real-time monitoring of temperature and inventory to helping businesses comply with regulations, this software enhances transparency, minimizes risks, and improves the quality of fresh produce. By adopting fresh produce software, businesses can safeguard food safety, streamline operations, and provide consumers with the confidence that the produce they purchase is safe, fresh, and responsibly handled.

The Role of Climate-Controlled Warehouses in Protecting Perishable Goods

In today's fast-paced supply chain environment, climate-controlled warehouses play a pivotal role in ensuring the safe storage and distribution of perishable goods. These specialized storage facilities are designed to maintain precise temperature and humidity levels, which are critical for preserving the quality, safety, and longevity of temperature-sensitive products. From food and pharmaceuticals to delicate materials like cosmetics and fine art, climate-controlled logistics provide businesses with the infrastructure needed to protect sensitive items throughout the supply chain.

Ensuring Product Integrity Through Temperature Control

Temperature-controlled storage is crucial for industries dealing with perishables, such as fresh produce, dairy, frozen goods, and medicines. Temperature fluctuations can cause irreversible damage, leading to spoilage, reduced efficacy, and financial losses. For instance, a batch of vaccines that exceeds its safe temperature range could become entirely unusable, impacting public health and the bottom line of companies.

By utilizing refrigerated warehousing options, businesses can safeguard their inventory from the adverse effects of temperature changes. These facilities are equipped with advanced technologies to monitor and maintain specific temperature ranges. The ability to customize storage conditions ensures that even the most delicate products, like fresh berries or biological samples, remain in optimal condition.

Humidity-Controlled Storage for Delicate Products

While temperature is a primary consideration, humidity-controlled storage facilities are equally vital for certain goods. High humidity levels can cause mold, mildew, and decay, especially in items like packaged food, electronics, or textiles. Conversely, low humidity can dry out products such as baked goods or sensitive pharmaceutical compounds.

Specialized warehousing for perishables often incorporates humidity control systems to complement temperature regulation. These systems are critical for industries that require consistent environmental conditions to meet quality and safety standards. For example, chocolate manufacturers often rely on climate-controlled environments to prevent their products from melting or blooming.

Supply Chain Solutions for Temperature-Sensitive Goods

The global nature of commerce has significantly increased the need for reliable temperature-controlled logistics. Modern supply chains often span continents, necessitating that goods remain in controlled environments for extended periods. From production to distribution, climate-controlled warehouses act as vital nodes where perishable items can be stored temporarily while awaiting transport or retail placement.

An effective temperature-controlled inventory management system ensures seamless transitions between various points in the supply chain. These systems often integrate real-time monitoring technologies, allowing stakeholders to track temperature, humidity, and overall storage conditions remotely. Alerts and automated adjustments minimize the risk of product degradation, enhancing operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Food and Pharmaceuticals: High Stakes for Climate Control

Among all industries relying on climate-controlled storage, the food and pharmaceutical sectors face the highest stakes. Inadequate storage conditions can result in health hazards and regulatory non-compliance, leading to product recalls and legal consequences.
