Shortly after the tall man left, you locked up for a second time and made your way to the cafeteria. To avoid the crowds and noise you typically get dinner an hour after it’s first served but hunger forced your hand. So here you are, standing at one of the entrances into the large room, just staring.

Majority of the faces that greeted you were somewhat familiar. Many you only saw in passing save for a few select. Glancing around you catch sight of Chase just as he catches sight of you. His eyes widen in shock before he waves you over to join him in line. Muttering quiet apologies to the grumbling soldiers you pass, you join him.

‘I must be dreaming, somebody pinch me.’

‘Haha very funny. I’m just grabbing something quick and going to be early.’

‘Stressful day?’

‘You could say that.’ A loud bang silences the muttering and chatter. Looking to your right you just catch a glimpse of someone flying through the air and landing on some chairs. There’s yelling and frantic movements as people try to break the fight apart.

All attempts are futile as the fight continues turning into a brawl. Cutlery and trays start flying across the room, smacking into walls and some get close to hitting people. The yelling finally quiets as a man is scuffed by a very pissed off Ghost while two other people are dragged away by Captain Price and Soap.

Whoever those people are, they must be apart of the loan soldier because you’ve never seen them before. They continue to bicker as they’re pulled closer to the exit. The room begins to go back to normal and you turn to chase to see if he knows the unnamed delinquents.

‘Do you have any idea who the hell they are? Seems like they really hate-‘

‘WATCH OUT!!’ A voice bellows. You turn just in time to feel glass shatter as it comes in contact with your face. One of the fuckers in the fight must have shitty aim. You’re unable to think much else as you kiss the disgusting linoleum, falling faster than anyone could catch you.

——— 🏥💊🩺 ———

An annoying beep brings you back to consciousness. Your not stupid like the people in movies, you know what the beeping is. You know you’re in some sort of hospital hooked up to a monitor. You also know you’re in a paper thin gown as you shift your legs under the blanket. The only thing you don’t know, who the quiet murmuring belongs to.

The beeping stays at the same pace, not giving any hints that you’re awake as you crack open your eyes a sliver. They feel dryer than a desert even though they’ve sat closed for who knows how long. There’s 5 people in the room, three are talking in the corner, one is sitting right next to you, and one is standing at the door.

‘You cannae just attack her lik' that! Aye git that ye don’ lik' eachother 'n' ur "sworn" enemies but dae it where thare won’t be collateral damage.’

A familiar voice scolds in the group of three as he waves his hand in your direction. Not wanting to talk to the Scot you close your eyes and continue to feign sleep.

‘𝕊𝕙𝕖 𝕗𝕦𝕔𝕜𝕚���𝕘 𝕤𝕨𝕦𝕟𝕘 𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕤𝕥. 𝕀 𝕨𝕒𝕤 𝕘𝕠𝕟𝕟𝕒 𝕚𝕘𝕟𝕠𝕣𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕓𝕚𝕥𝕔𝕙 𝕓𝕦𝕥 𝕤𝕙𝕖 𝕙𝕚𝕥 ℝ𝕦𝕕𝕪 𝕤𝕠 𝕀 𝕙𝕚𝕥 𝕙𝕖𝕣.’

‘𝕀 𝕕𝕚𝕕 𝕟𝕠𝕥 𝕤𝕨𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕤𝕥! 𝕀 𝕨𝕒𝕤 𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕔𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕡𝕒𝕤𝕥 𝕙𝕚𝕞 𝕗𝕠𝕣 𝕤𝕠𝕞𝕖 𝕕𝕒𝕞𝕟 𝕤𝕒𝕝𝕥!’ The reply comes from the woman standing by the door, walking up to the trio like she wants another fight.

‘𝔹𝕦𝕝𝕝𝕤𝕙𝕚𝕥! 𝕐𝕠𝕦 𝕨𝕖𝕣𝕖 𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕕𝕪 𝕥𝕠-‘

‘Can you lot shut up for a damn second! You’re suffocating the room in tension. Can’t even act cordial for 10 minutes while the innocent girl YOU knocked out lays on a hospital bed 5 feet away.’

That voice, that one you don’t mind. Gaz is the one sitting by your bed. At least there’s one person in this room you can understand perfectly, though the ones in the corner with Soap aren’t too hard either. Would definitely be easier if you didn’t have a splitting headache ache but they’re somewhat understandable.

‘ℙ𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕖 𝔸𝕝𝕖, 𝕝𝕚𝕤𝕥𝕖𝕟 𝕥𝕠 𝕂𝕪𝕝𝕖 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕕𝕣𝕠𝕡 𝕚𝕥 𝕗𝕠𝕣 𝕟𝕠𝕨. 𝕀𝕥’𝕤 𝕒𝕝𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕕𝕪 𝕓𝕖𝕖𝕟 𝟚 𝕕𝕒𝕪𝕤 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕘𝕚𝕣𝕝 𝕙𝕒𝕤𝕟’𝕥 𝕨𝕠𝕜𝕖𝕟 𝕦𝕡 𝕪𝕖𝕥. 𝕀 𝕕𝕠𝕦𝕓𝕥 𝕨𝕖’𝕝𝕝 𝕖𝕧𝕖𝕟 𝕓𝕖 𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕧𝕖 𝕥𝕠 𝕗𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 𝕚𝕗 𝕤𝕙𝕖 𝕥𝕒𝕜𝕖𝕤 𝕞𝕦𝕔𝕙 𝕝𝕠𝕟𝕘𝕖𝕣, 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕤𝕒𝕨 𝕙𝕠𝕨 𝕤𝕠𝕞𝕖 𝕠𝕗 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕘𝕦𝕪𝕤 𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕔𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝕨𝕙𝕖𝕟 𝕤𝕙𝕖 𝕘𝕠𝕥 𝕙𝕚𝕥. 𝕎𝕖 𝕒𝕝𝕞𝕠𝕤𝕥 𝕙𝕒𝕕 𝕒 𝕗𝕦𝕔𝕜𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕤𝕙𝕠𝕠𝕥 𝕠𝕦𝕥.’

The beeping gets faster as you process his words. Eyes practically creaking as you open them fully. The only words you fully heard made your heart plummet. Two fucking days?!?!? How fucking hard did that cup hit you. Your attempt at sitting up are pushed down, like you, by a warm hand.

‘Talk’ it easy luv. You’re pretty banged up, gotta take it slow.’

Furrowing your brows cause a wave of fire across your face. Reaching up, many long and small ridges greet your finger tips. Cuts. Lots of little cuts mark your skin interrupted only in the middle by a large bandage. The damn glass not only seemingly broke your nose, but also sliced up your face.

‘Ah ah, don’t touch your face,’ he lightly takes your wrist and lays it back on your lap. ‘If you let them heal properly they won’t scar.’

‘Wha-,’ your voice cracks painfully, bringing tears to your eyes. One of the guys from the corner, clean shaven, hands you a small cup with water. Taking a gulp, your throat feels 100% better and you try again.

‘What happened? I *cough* know I got hit with something but that’s all.’

‘𝕄𝕪 𝕒𝕡𝕠𝕝𝕠𝕘𝕚𝕖𝕤 𝕋𝕖𝕤𝕠𝕣𝕠, 𝕥𝕙𝕒𝕥 𝕨𝕒𝕤 𝕞𝕖. 𝕀 𝕞𝕖��𝕟𝕥 𝕥𝕠 𝕙𝕚𝕥 𝕥𝕙𝕚𝕤 𝕗𝕦𝕔𝕜 𝕗𝕒𝕔𝕖 𝕓𝕦𝕥 𝕪𝕠𝕦𝕣 𝕓𝕖𝕒𝕦𝕥𝕪 𝕞𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝕙𝕒𝕧𝕖 𝕕𝕣𝕒𝕨𝕟 𝕞𝕖 𝕥𝕠𝕨𝕒𝕣𝕕𝕤 𝕪𝕠𝕦.’ The woman with short hair answers, purposefully cutting off the bearded man who tried to answer first.

‘𝕐𝕖𝕤 ℂ𝕒𝕣𝕚𝕟𝕠, 𝕠𝕦𝕣 𝕒𝕡𝕠𝕝𝕠𝕘𝕚𝕖𝕤 𝕥𝕠𝕠,’ He gestures between himself and the shaven man, ‘𝕀 𝕤𝕙𝕠𝕦𝕝𝕕 𝕙𝕒𝕧𝕖 𝕥𝕒𝕜𝕖𝕟 𝕙𝕖𝕣 𝕠𝕦𝕥𝕤𝕚𝕕𝕖 𝕥𝕠 𝕗𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 𝕤𝕠 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕨𝕠𝕦𝕝𝕕𝕟’𝕥 𝕙𝕒𝕧𝕖 𝕘𝕠𝕥𝕥𝕖𝕟 𝕚𝕟𝕛𝕦𝕣𝕖𝕕. 𝔼𝕤𝕡𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕪 𝕨𝕚𝕥𝕙 𝕙𝕠𝕨 𝕞𝕒𝕕 ℝ𝕚𝕝𝕖𝕪 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕥𝕙𝕒𝕥 𝕓𝕚𝕘 𝕠𝕟𝕖 𝕘𝕠𝕥.’

Processing what he’s said a persistent beeping finally breaks through your ears. The pace quickening to the point that Gaz quickly glances at it and turns to look you over. Not seeing any obvious signs of declining health he fixes you with a questioning stare that’s answered as you glance at the new faces. Confusion is replaced by amusement as the door is pushed open by two nurses, called by Soap.

The five retreat to the back corner of the room allowing the professionals room to work. Mortification at being caught out you avoid looking at the group and instead focus on the nurses questions. Only when she deems it a false alarm do you risk a glance and are met by two amused and three shocked faces. (Gaz & Valeria and then Soap, Rudy, and Ale)

The resume theirs spots after the medical personnel retreat, leaving just the six of you in silence.

‘𝕊𝕠….. 𝕎𝕙𝕠’𝕤 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕕𝕖𝕤𝕥 𝕥𝕠 𝕦𝕟𝕕𝕖𝕣𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕟𝕕? 𝕀𝕥’𝕤 𝕞𝕖 𝕣𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥?’ And so it begins.

Caught on Camera - Shams x fem reader (Chapter 3)

Chapter 1

Previous Chapter

warnings: bullying

word count: 900

-------------------------

“Are you serious? Why would you hang out with Shams?”, I complained.

“Why shouldn't I?”, Nadeen shot back. “Sarah just dropped me out of the blue. At least Shams doesn't care what others think about her. She seems to be reliable.”

We were on our way to a table to eat lunch together. Actually I had looked forward to it until Nadeen had enlightened me about her weekend.

How was I supposed to warn Nadeen about Shams without talking about Sham's filming? After all we had a deal.

“You just said that she doesn't care about what other people think. Do you really want a friend who doesn't care about your opinion?”, I inquired.

“(f/n) … what is your problem with Shams?”, Nadeen questioned.

I stared at her dumbfounded for a second, not sure of an answer.

Before I could think of one, I suddenly bumped into someone.

Last second I managed to get control over my tray to avoid spilling my food.

To my surprise it was Sarah. But of course she was not alone due to her newest fame. Tasneem, Hiba and their friends were with her.

“(f/n), I'm sorry! Are you okay?”, she immediately apologized.

“Yeah, it's okay. I'm sorry, too. I wasn't really paying attention where I was going”, I confessed.

We sent each other a short smile as a sign that we were not holding a grudge over it or anything.

When I tried to move on, Hiba intervened by placing her arm in front of me.

But instead of addressing me, she started talking to Sarah: “Are you kidding? You're at the top of the food chain now. You don't have to let her get away with this without consequences.”

Then she emptied her full cup of water over my head, draining my whole upper body as well as the food I was still holding in front of me.

“What the hell?”, Nadeen exclaimed.

I was too shocked to react at first.

Sarah was looking apologetically at me, but did not intervene either.

As a turmoil of emotions was bubbling up inside of me, I put down my tray and hurried to the bathroom.

On my way I noticed Shams sitting at a table on her own as usually, her camera in hands. Of course she had filmed the incident!

Tears of anger were pricking at the corner of my eyes as we glared at each other, before I continued my way.

When I arrived in the bathroom I slipped out of my shirt and placed it onto the sink to wring out my wet hair. Then I moved on to drying the shirt under the hand dryer.

It was no use though. It would take forever to dry it up.

I flinched as I heard the door open and quickly held the shirt in front of me to cover myself.

“You gotta be kidding me! What are you doing here?”, I yelled at Shams. “Can you please just leave and use another bathroom?”

“No, I'm here because of you. I ...”

I did not give her a chance to explain herself and instead interrupted her: “What? You didn't want to miss out on filming the continuation of the incident before? What were you hoping to see? Do you want me to break down? Or did you wanna film me without my shirt on?”

“Why are you always so aggressive toward me?”, she wondered. Her voice was surprisingly calm and stoic.

“Well, you always seem to be there during my worst moments, filming everything. I just saw you filming the incident with Hiba as well. And now you're even hanging out with Nadeen. She's my only true friend”, I ranted.

“I did film the incident”, she confirmed. “But it's not you who's looking bad in that scene, but Hiba. And I wouldn't show it to anyone without your consent … as I already promised. Neither did I film anything that happened in the changing room last week. And by the way, I didn't mean to steal Nadeen away from you or anything. She just seems cool and was having a hard time. So I figured we could hang out and maybe become friends. And right now I just wanted to check on you after Hiba was being such a bitch. But if you just want to keep on hating me, I guess I'll leave.”

Shams turned around and grabbed the door handle.

“Wait!”, I called out. “I'm sorry.”

She faced me again, her hand still on the door handle.

“You're right. I was being a jerk”, I admitted. “I only wanted to see the version of you I had pictured in my mind. Honestly I'm not even sure why.”

Shams let go of the handle and fidgeted something out of her bag.

“You can borrow it if you want to”, she offered me a spare shirt. “I don't think yours is gonna dry in time for the next lesson if you don't put it outside in the sun. And you can't really go out without wearing it. So ...”

Hesitantly I took the shirt from her. I thanked her with a shy smile.

She smiled back at me and I had to admit that it was kinda cute.

Suddenly I wondered why I had pushed her away to begin with.

The Lemon Legacy: Generation 1, Chapter 44 - Soarin', Flyin', Roastin'

The first thing Ophelia does the next morning is set her ass on fire because she forgot to clean the lint tray of her dryer. I didn't get many screenshots because I was too busy screaming and crying and throwing up but I think this one speaks for itself.

Xander has to leave to help his parents around the house, but he has time to clean up the aftermath of the fire while Ophelia cleans the soot off of herself. He finds that he doesn't mind helping out with chores. He rather likes it, actually!

Ophelia's stressed, as one would be after setting themselves on fire, and does some yoga to calm down. It doesn't entirely make the stressed moodlet go away.

Ophelia Marie, stop shouting forbidden words and eat your chickpea tacos! You've got a wedding to sing at tonight!

Another successful wedding at La Coppia Serena. The staff has just cleared out and… what's this? Is someone at the piano?

Ophelia plunks away, playing a tune any Simillennial would recognize.

Xander: Isn't this from Rabbithole School Musical? This song is so corny.

Ophelia: Don't act like you don't know the words.

��You know the world can see us In a way that's different than who we are Creating space between us 'Til we're separate hearts But your faith it gives me strength Strength to believe🎶

https://t.co/6mOx6AxJs5

Xander pulls her into his lap and she lets out an involuntary giggle as she continues to sing with him.

🎶We're breakin' free We're soarin' Flyin' There's not a star in heaven That we can't reach If we're trying Yeah, we're breaking free🎶

They finish their song and Ophelia slides off his lap.

Xander: Why don't we go back to your place and break free of our clothes?

Ophelia: OMW you dork… but yeah, absolutely.

Moses: I picked a good day to forget my wallet.

Drew: Looks like this case is closed, my friend.

The two scramble off the bench and try to think of a way to hand wave that display.

Xander: Oh, hey! I was just… learning piano.

Ophelia: Yeah, I was teaching him some notes and the bench is really small so I had to sit in his lap!

Moses: We weren't born yesterday. I think I know more than anyone that tickling the ivories like that isn't merely platonic.

Drew: We spent so much time speculating and we never even considered our own little Ophelia was the mystery lover all along.

Xander: I think the gig is up, Lemon Cake.

Ophelia: Look, guys, it's really not what you think. Xander and I aren't dating. We're just… woohooing. We were just having some fun at the piano. We'd really appreciate it if you kept it on the down low, especially with Hilary.

Moses: Oh, woohoo partners, I see. Cheeky!

Drew: Been there, done that. Don't worry. Your secret is safe with us.

Xander: You guys are… taking this pretty well.

Drew: Are you kidding? We finally found out something about your oh-so-secretive woohoo life!

Moses: Hell yeah!

Xander: Your dads are a little too supportive.

Ophelia: I guess they're compensating for my actual parents.

Unveiling the Art of Cashew Kernel Dryer: A Crucial Step in Cashew Processing

Introduction

Cashew nuts are not just a delectable snack; they are also a vital ingredient in numerous culinary delights worldwide. However, the journey from the cashew fruit to the delightful cashew kernel involves a series of intricate processes, with drying being a pivotal step. In this blog, we delve into the fascinating world of cashew kernel dryer, exploring their significance, types, and the art of achieving optimal drying results.

The Significance of Drying Cashew Kernels

Cashew kernels are encased within a tough shell that is surrounded by a caustic, resinous substance known as cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL). To make cashews safe for consumption and enhance their flavor, the nuts must be extracted from the shells and dried. The drying process serves several crucial purposes:

Removal of Moisture: Cashews are initially extracted with a high moisture content, making them susceptible to mold and spoilage. Drying eliminates excess moisture, extending the shelf life of the kernels.

Reducing CNSL Content: The resinous CNSL is an irritant and can cause skin reactions. Drying helps to reduce its concentration, making cashews safe for handling and consumption.

Enhancing Flavor and Texture: Properly dried cashews have a distinct flavor and crunchy texture, contributing to their appeal in various dishes and snacks.

Types of Cashew Kernel Dryers

Several types of Cashew Kernel Drying Machine are used in the cashew processing industry, each with its unique features and advantages:

Sun Drying: Traditional and cost-effective, sun drying involves spreading cashews in the open air to naturally dry under the sun. While it is widely practiced, the process is weather-dependent and can be time-consuming.

Mechanical Dryers: These are designed for more controlled and efficient drying. Mechanical dryers use hot air to reduce moisture content quickly. They come in various designs, including tray dryers, rotary dryers, and fluidized bed dryers.

Vacuum Dryers: Ideal for delicate applications, vacuum dryers operate at lower temperatures, preserving the cashew kernels' quality. They are particularly useful in preventing discoloration and maintaining the natural taste of the cashews.

The Art of Achieving Optimal Drying Results

Achieving the perfect balance in cashew kernel dryer know as cashew Borma is both a science and an art. Here are some key considerations for obtaining optimal results:

Temperature Control: Maintaining the right drying temperature is crucial. Excessive heat can lead to over-drying and loss of flavor, while insufficient heat may result in incomplete drying and microbial contamination.

Airflow: Proper airflow is essential to ensure uniform drying. Adequate ventilation prevents the accumulation of moisture in specific areas, reducing the risk of mold development.

Monitoring Moisture Levels: Regularly monitoring the moisture content of the cashew kernels throughout the drying process helps prevent over-drying or under-drying, ensuring the desired quality is achieved.

Quality Inspection: Implementing a robust quality control process involves inspecting the cashew kernels for color, texture, and overall appearance. This helps identify any issues early in the drying process.

Conclusion

Cashew kernel dryer is a critical step in the journey from harvest to consumption, playing a vital role in enhancing the safety, flavor, and shelf life of these beloved nuts. Whether through traditional sun drying or advanced mechanical methods, the art of drying cashew kernels requires a delicate balance of factors to achieve the perfect result. As consumers continue to savor the unique taste and texture of cashews, the importance of efficient and effective drying methods remains at the forefront of the cashew processing industry.

Effective Methods to Extend the Lifespan of Your Appliances

Effective Methods to Extend the Lifespan of Your Appliances

Here are some preventative maintenance tips for washers, dryers, refrigerators, and dishwashers. The average lifespan of each of these main home appliances is between 10 and 13 years, and you should likely begin budgeting for your next major purchase around the nine-year mark.

A broad Commercial Electrician can affect the durability of a given piece of machinery. On the other hand, routine maintenance could extend the life of your appliance, prevent costly service calls, and result in reduced utility bills.

It is essential to maintain the efficiency of the refrigerator by maintaining the coils clean. We generally expect refrigerators to continue operating routinely. But imagine this: you have a house full of Christmas visitors, and when you wake up, they have all left. In addition to having to pay for repairs (which will typically cost between $220 and $270) or a new refrigerator (which can cost anywhere from $350 to over $2,500), you may also have to make an expensive journey to the grocery store to replace all of the spoiled food.

The purity of the condenser coils should take precedence over all other refrigerator maintenance considerations. A dirty coil will not discharge heat as efficiently, thereby increasing the workload of the compressor. This will shorten the life of the compressor, which will result in increased utility expenses. The procedure only needs to be performed once or twice per year and takes about fifteen minutes.

Unplug your refrigerator to turn off the power supply. Units with coils underneath them will likely require the removal of a cover and the cleaning of a condenser fan. Both of these responsibilities must be fulfilled. Some models feature exposed coils on the back of the instrument. Utilize a brush or vacuum to remove the grime and dust from the area. If you use a vacuum, you must locate the drip pan and either remove or dry it. Typically, appliances with an integrated defroster contain drip trays.

Periodically, the interior of a dishwasher must also be cleansed. Although having a dishwasher in your home is not required, having one allows you to spend more time with your loved ones and visitors instead of cleaning dishes by hand. In fact, during a recent trip to visit family, we utilized the dishwasher multiple times per day.

It is essential to keep the interior of the dishwasher clean because mineral deposits and leftover food particles can accumulate, resulting in blocked or leaking components and offensive aromas. There's a chance that placing white vinegar in an empty dishwasher and running the cleaning cycle will do the trick. It's also conceivable that you'll need to manually scrub the walls and the filter, which is typically located at the bottom of the machine.

"Eco-Friendly Drying Solutions: Sustainable Practices in Industrial Dryer Systems"

An industrial dryer is a machine designed to remove moisture or water content from various materials or products used in industrial processes. It plays a crucial role in industries such as manufacturing, food processing, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and chemicals, where drying is necessary to achieve desired product quality, consistency, and shelf life.

The primary function of an industrial dryer is to apply heat or airflow to the material or product, thereby accelerating the evaporation of moisture. The drying process involves bringing the material into contact with hot air or exposing it to high temperatures, depending on the specific requirements of the material being dried. The heat energy causes the moisture within the material to vaporize and escape, resulting in the desired reduction in moisture content.

Industrial dryers come in various types and configurations, each suited for specific applications and material characteristics. Some common types of industrial dryers include rotary dryers, fluidized bed dryers, belt dryers, tray dryers, and spray dryers. Each type offers different mechanisms for transferring heat and removing moisture from the material, ensuring optimal drying efficiency and product quality.

One of the key advantages of industrial dryers is their ability to facilitate large-scale and efficient drying processes. Industrial dryers are designed to handle substantial quantities of material or products, often operating continuously or in batch cycles. This enables industries to achieve high productivity and meet the demands of large-scale production. The efficiency of industrial dryers also helps businesses reduce energy consumption and operating costs associated with drying processes.

Industrial dryers offer precise control over temperature, airflow, and other drying parameters, allowing for customization to suit specific product requirements. Different materials have unique drying characteristics and optimal drying conditions. With advanced controls and monitoring systems, industrial dryers enable businesses to achieve the desired moisture content and product quality consistently.

Furthermore, industrial dryers play a vital role in ensuring product quality and integrity. By removing excess moisture, industrial dryers prevent the growth of microorganisms, reduce the risk of spoilage or degradation, and enhance the stability and shelf life of products. This is particularly crucial in industries such as food processing and pharmaceuticals, where moisture content can affect the safety, efficacy, and overall quality of the end product.

However, it is important to consider the compatibility of the material being dried with the specific type of industrial dryer. Different materials have different drying requirements and characteristics, such as heat sensitivity, particle size, and moisture content. It is essential to select the appropriate industrial dryer that can effectively and safely dry the material without compromising its integrity or quality.

-->And then, as Victor finished up his meal and Alice started a new painting, Smiler spotted a certain Roxana Lopes on the porch -- you know, that Sim that was too busy playing with clay on Love Day to even consider giving Smiler a drink? Welp, I saw an opportunity for Prank-Day-appropriate revenge, and after having Smiler go out, say hello, and share some preposterous rumors (”I heard EA was actually going to stop having microtransactions in games!”), had them dare her to streak.

And she happily stripped off her clothes and went! XD Well, if she’s willing to run around in the nude, I’m happy to see her go run around in the nude. And it helped Smiler complete Prank Day too, so double win there. XD

-->With that sorted, the trio settled down into more domestic stuff to finish out the day. Namely, Victor and Smiler teamed up to continue improving the washer-dryer combo -- Smiler added a additive tray to the washer so they could use some of their flowers to scent their clothes, while Victor made the dryer lintless so they’d never have to worry about cleaning the lint trap again -- while Alice did another painting! Which turned out to be a masterpiece!

A $12,000 masterpiece. O.o Yeah, uh, if your abstracts are selling for that much, Alice, it’s no wonder neither Victor nor Smiler needs a job! She celebrated the sale with a quick wolf nap on the floor, followed by testing out her ability to lick herself clean. XD Hey, she just earned the household over 10K in one painting, she can do as she likes.

-->And then Guidry showed up and started trying to grab the Soul Sip on the side table again. *grumbles* I sent Victor in to distract him again -- and then realized, “hey, he must be a valid target for Prank Day” and had Victor scare him. XD Hey, Guidry’s scared the trio plenty -- about time he got a taste of his own medicine! I sent Alice and Smiler upstairs to join the fun, and soon they were all gathered around, sharing ridiculous stories and the Prank Day spirit. Smiler and Victor even got in a kiss after being denied all day by various other chores, aww. :) (And then Smiler scared Victor, but I didn’t have room for that shot. XD)

-->Anyway, with Guidry sufficiently distracted (and the Soul Sip safely tucked away in Smiler’s inventory for later), Victor headed to bed for his required 40 winks, while Alice had another meditation session to control her Fury (look at her levitate! She’s really gotten a handle on this “wellness” thing :p) and Smiler brought in Elmer for another tune-up session. Feels like a solid ending to the day, right?

Chapter 4:

"Warmth"

My eyes opened wearily, for a moment unsure of where I was. As I rubbed them awake, I understood I was in Grillby's room, now having a more clear look at it as sunlight shone through his long, yellow drapes. As I searched for my clothes, Grillbs was not beside me on the bed like last night. Instead, the sheets were neatly tucked on the side where he was. On top were pajamas positioned just as neatly. After a moment of consideration, I decided to put them on. I pulled the oversized orange and white striped pajamas onto my sore body, then stepped outside his room. I proceeded into the hallway once I smelled his cooking. As I walked toward the sound of breakfast, I observed his bare apartment. No photos hung in the hallway, no magazines or misplaced socks. I admired his tidiness, but the place lacked personality.            "Morning, Flames," I found myself in the kitchen, his busy back to me.           "Oh!" Grillby was pleasantly surprised, "Good morning, Sans."           "What's Grillbs grillin' up?" I crept up beside him, leaving no space between us because there didn't seem a need for that sort of formality after last night. I watched him cook as he answered my question, though sounding a little flustered, "Uh, just easy breakfast foods: some eggs, sausage, waffles, you know, just some stuff..." I turned from him to see two glasses of orange juice and a tray with an empty plate on it, which presumably would have been used to bring to me in bed.           "Ah—Grillbs, you didn't need to do this all for me. You could have given me a raw egg and I'd have eaten it with gratitude."           "You know I enjoy doing this. Besides, it's nice to have company."            "It's nice to be company," I reply warmly. As Grillby prepared the food he continued, "So! How do you like the new place? I know it's not much to look at yet..."           "No, it's real impressive! It'd sure be nice to have a place like this for me and Paps to live; you know we could use the space."           "Yes... or of course you could get a place for yourself. I'm sure after college you and he would be able to support yourselves separately."           "'Of course,'" I repeat his words to confirm his statement because I was unable to get one out myself. Of course, Papyrus and I are only living together for financial reasons. There's no relationship beyond helping family. We live together because we need to, not because we want to. Right?          "I dunno man," I backpedal toward the former mention of college, "If I ever graduate maybe. College is kicking my ass this year."           "Really? I would have thought your senior year would be easiest."           "It's just a lot of stress. Stress and a lot of second-guessing. Each year I've become less certain writing was the right way to go."           "If you ever need help I'd be glad to have you here. I didn't go to college but I took advanced placement classes just because of how fascinated I was with literature and language." I became flustered at the idea of coming back here; being cherished and cared for in this warm apartment, "Hey, yeah! And I could help you decorate as well. Make this loft a little homier."           "Sounds like a plan," Grillby says smiling as he hands a delicately arranged dish to me.

After eating the most delicious breakfast, Grillby excuses himself and then comes back with my clothes from the night before. They were still warm from the dryer, or maybe it was the heat of his hands. I dressed in the bathroom, aware that he's seen me naked, but now that fact was too embarrassing to face. Once I was dressed he didn't hurry me to leave but assured me he would drive me home when I was ready. The truth was, I didn't want to leave; I was still scared to see Papyrus after yesterday and especially after last night, but I knew I needed to head back. Pap was probably worried even though we haven't been on the best of terms lately. I've been ignoring his texts more than usual these past few days. We get into Grillby's car and as we drive I become less and less comfortable with the destination. I feel trapped in the moving vehicle as it drives nearer to my real-life nightmare. Grillby notices my discomfort based on the measures he took to give me comfort during the short car ride.           "Sorry... You seem tense. Is it too hot in here?" Grillby asks then proceeds to crack the two front windows.           "Ah, no... Just a little nervous to see Papyrus I guess."           "Why's that?"           "Uh," I pause to find a rational answer, "I guess I've been getting on his nerves a bit. I'm in between jobs and so he's a little upset with me for not helping to pay rent and stuff. It probably doesn't add to the situation that I've been quite the slob recently...Heh-heh." Grillby takes his right hand off of the wheel and places it on my thigh, reminding me of last night, "You didn't come home last night. I'm sure he'll be more worried than upset."           "Hopefully." We pull up to my apartment complex and I thank Grillby for the ride along with the breakfast and the night we had. I got out as he leaned closer to me and I pretended not to notice as I looked away. I wave goodbye now with the protection of the car door's window. As I walk towards my apartment complex I keep my head down, the fear of Papyrus looking through his window was all too real.
