Wrecked

Eddie Munson x Reader

Content: oral (male receiving) slight sub!Eddie. Listen I just really wanna suck him

18+ only

Your eyes snapped open, adjusting to the darkness in the room as the VHS shut off with a click. The light from the TV seemed harsh, jarring you from the quietness surrounding you. It woke you up from your sleepy state, heart thumping wildly as you realized you had fallen asleep against Eddie. Eddie, who talked a mile a minute and told you interesting facts while watching movies, who had gone silent almost an hour ago as you started to drift off. Eddie, who had an arm wrapped around your shoulder, hand lazily drawing patterns on your arm where it rested. Your head against his chest, listening to the steady beating of his heart. "Sorry," you yawned as you sat up," Did I fall asleep?"

Eddie blinked slowly before smiling," Don't worry 'bout it. You need to rest." You lazily smile at him as he stands up. He stretches slowly, joints popping that remind you that neither of you are near your teens anymore. He reaches his arms above his head in a stretch, shirt traveling up just enough to give you a sneak peak of his stomach. Pale skin that showed the stark colors of the dragon curled over the top of his belly button. The dragon that had it's mouth open as if it was blowing fire, fire that actually was pink scars courtesy of the demobats. The scars that he always had a different story for when people saw ("I got attacked by a bear." "A witch cursed me." "I didn't eat my vegetables." "I used to defuse bombs").

Your eyes caught on his belly button, the stupid piercing he got claiming "a dragon had to have a hoard". The blue light from the tv causing the jewelry to glint, showing a kaleidoscope of rainbows in the opal gemstones. Your breath caught at the smattering of hair that trailed down from his belly button. Down to the band of his sweatpants that hung low on his hips. Plaid boxers peeking over the hem of his pants obscured your view of the slight v shape of his hips. The TV light providing the perfect amount of light and shadow to show the slight definition of his abs he had gained from long hours as a mechanic.

The sting from biting your lip pulled you from your casual perusal of Eddie's frame. Eddie who hadn't even noticed and was waving his hands around talking as he stared off at the wall,"- but those are just rumors. I mean if they do make a movie, it better be close to the book. No creative liberties. I want to see the book come to life, ya know? I want the dwarves to have full beards, especially the women and-"

You stand up abruptly," Shut the fuck up." Eddie pauses at your abrupt words and movement. Silence spans a few seconds as he notices the glimmer in your eyes," Excuse you?" You hum, running your eyes up and down his frame. Eddie was definitely a man, no longer the boy you had met in high school. He had filled out more, had some scruff on his jawline. His sweatpants had a hole in his knee and there was a stain on his shirt, but he had never looked more beautiful to you. And you had never wanted to fuck him more.

Eddie tilted his head slightly, untamed and frizzy curls bouncing as he tried to decipher the look in your eye. "I will gladly listen to this conversation, but I can't pay attention right now. Not when you're," you wave your hand gesturing to him," that!" Eddie scoffs," Excuse you? That?." One step is all it takes to get in his space, Eddie instinctively taking a step back.

You push on his chest, firm beneath your open palms, causing him to stumble back into the couch. He lands with a grunt and looks up at you with a look of exasperation. He goes to open his mouth to say what you're sure is a snarky remark, but all thoughts leave his head as you grab his knees spreading them open and kneeling in front of him. His jaw drops as he stares at you between his legs. You bat your lashes at him in what you hope is a seductive look, but let's be honest, both you and Eddie suck at flirting. You trail one hand up from his knee, barely touching as your fingers dance their way up his thigh. His cheeks flush, a beautiful dusty pink that spreads down his neck towards his chest. You wonder how far that blush goes as you lift the hem of his shirt.

Eddie is staring at you, frozen in time. You clearing your throat as you tug on his shirt knocks him from his reverie. "Yeah, okay, fuck uh yea." He leans forward enough to pull the shirt over his head. You lick your lips at the expanse of tattooed skin you see. You lean in, trying to decide where to start. You look up through your eyelids at him, slowly licking the happy trail, that definitely made you happy. The image of you licking his skin, peering up at him through your lashes, was burned into Eddie's retinas. Eddie's knuckles were white as he gripped the couch cushions. His stomach flexed unintentionally at the warmth of your tongue. The small whimper he let out fueled your desire, heat pooling low in your stomach. You nip and suck at his hips, one hand resting on his thigh, the other curled around his back to bring him closer to you. You pulled back after adding a lovely red mark that you know will fade to a bruise.

You can't believe you had fallen asleep next to this man, now the only thoughts involving a bed also involved cardio. You lightly trail a finger over the prominent bulge in his pants, earning a sharply inhaled breath and a buck of his hips. "Jesus fucking Christ," he groans, voice lower then you've ever heard. You lick your lips as your hands reach for the hem of his pants and-

"Wait!" Eddie startles you, and you glance up at his wrecked face. "Huh?" You blink a few times starting to pull back," Do you not..?" "No! No I do!" Eddie clears his throat and grabs the pillow next to him," I just...you should be comfortable..." His face flushes as he holds the pillow between you two, causing you to chuckle. You grab the pillow and put it under your knees, even if you don't need it. "Thanks baby. You're so thoughtful." Eddie preens under the praise, looking smug. Your hands return to his waist band, tugging his pants and boxers down. He lifts his hips to help and-

You've never thought a dick to be pretty before. Sure, you've seen some good ones but this? He's long, curved slightly to the right. Precum beading at the top of a head that is flushed so red it's almost purple. A prominent vein trailing the underside of his dick that you want to lick up. Curls around the base that were trimmed but still unruly. The tension is thick as you stare at his dick, wondering where to start. He twitches under your heavy gaze. "C'mon, don't make me wait.." Eddie mumbles. "You'll take what I give you, and you'll be thankful." You snap back, watching the man pout slightly. For all his bravado and extroverted demeanor, he has no power here and he knows it.

But you decide to have mercy on him as you flatten your tongue against his dick, deciding to follow the vein from his base to his tip. Eddie lets out a high-pitched whine followed by a "thank you", but you don't really care. Yes, it feels good for him, but this is also for your pleasure. You swirl your tongue around his leaking tip, tasting the salty essence. Eddie's hand finds the back of your head instinctively, not using any real force or grip. When you fully envelope his tip with your warm mouth and suck, all coherent thoughts of his are gone. He barely can remember his own name. One of your hands holding his hips back so he can't thrust up, the other wrapped around his dick slowly moving up and down.

Eddie sits there babbling nonsense, he never could stay quiet for long. And you wouldn't want him to, his moans and groans like music to your ears. You pull off of him earning a whine. Eddie's face is flushed, bangs stuck to his forehead, a slight sweat broken out on him. He looks down at you with those big brown eyes like you just kicked a dog. "Please? Fuck, please baby? Don't stop."

You smile up at the wrecked man, the man begging for you to continue. You can feel the light pressure of his hand against your head trying to push you closer to his groin. You could make him beg. Make him wait. But he looks so good like this, you want to see him completely blissed out. You inhale deeply before lightly putting the tip back in your mouth. Eddie has no time to mutter a thank you before you fully sink down on him. Your nose coming flush with the hair you admired earlier, taking him deep in your throat without gagging. "Oh fuckfuckfuck," Eddie pants above you, lost in the feeling of you. You hollow out your cheeks and suck, bobbing up and down along his length. He was a twitching writhing mess beneath you. You lightly palm at his balls, adding enough pressure to have Eddie moan. It didn't take him long before he came with a loud groan, hips bucking without a pattern. You swallowed it to the best of your ability, some leaking out and dripping down your chin.

When he was done, you pulled off him with a pop. Eddie's chest heaved as he panted above you. Eddie looked down from the ceiling, not sure when he had thrown his head back in ecstasy. You swipe the cum off your chin before licking your fingers, eyes locked with his. "Jesus Christ," he runs a hand through his hair and lets out a chuckle. You hum and smile up at him. Eddie lightly grasps your biceps, tugging you to get up,"Not sure what brought that on, but I think its time for me to return the favor. Get up here."

What kind of gifts do you think Cassius would get for someone he loves?

Personally I think he'd nab anything his lover showed interest in no matter the price. High Quality Paint Set? Bought. Fancy Custom Cloak? Pocket Change Really. Decorative Dish Set? Already Being Shipped Home.

Though shopping on his own, I think he'd spend a lot of time looking through jewelry and gems to find ones that distinctly remind him of his lover- Rainforest Jaspers that match their green and brown eyes, Lionskin Quartz to match their fur color, Fire Opal that reminds him of the way they danced in the sunset's fading light. Less expensive in some cases, but filled with more heart.

Acrylic-Based Substances and Related Production Technologies

PMMA, commonly referred to as acrylic or organic glass, is a significant early innovation in synthetic polymer materials. This versatile substance exhibits remarkable optical clarity, robust chemical resistance, and exceptional durability against environmental factors. Its characteristics of easy coloration, superior machinability, and aesthetic appeal have led to its extensive adoption in architectural applications. In commercial display applications, Acrylic displays are typically categorized into three primary types: cast panels, extruded sheets, and injection-molded plastic components.

Common sheet types include transparent sheets, dyed transparent sheets, opal white sheets, and colored sheets.

Acrylic sheets can be categorized into cast and extruded sheets by production method. Based on transparency, they are divided into transparent sheets, translucent sheets (including dyed transparent sheets), and colored sheets (including black, white, and colored sheets). Performance-wise, they are classified into impact-resistant sheets, UV-resistant sheets, regular sheets, and special sheets such as high-impact sheets, flame-retardant sheets, frosted sheets, metallic effect sheets, and light guide sheets.

Acrylic is available in sheets, rods, tubes, and various finishes such as glossy, semi-glossy, matte, and frosted, with standard thicknesses of 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 8.0, 10.0, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30 mm, etc.

Acrylic products include sheets, rods, and tubes (typically round), with surface finishes such as glossy, matte, and frosted, and thicknesses ranging from 1mm to 30mm.

Similar plastics related to acrylic include: Foam PVC (Sintra), PVC, PS, HIPS, PC, PETG

Types of Acrylic

Colorless Transparent Acrylic: Common in everyday life, colorless and transparent acrylic has outstanding light transmission, higher than that of ordinary glass. It is durable and not easily broken, performing better than glass in certain aspects.

Colored Acrylic: This type of acrylic is colored and transparent, with a softer light transmission compared to colorless transparent acrylic. Available in various colors, it is ideal for decorative purposes. Based on light transmission, it can be divided into transparent-colored, translucent-colored, and opaque colored types.

Pearlescent Acrylic: Made by adding pearlescent or fluorescent powder to regular acrylic, it features vivid colors and high gloss. Even after heat-press polishing, it retains embossed patterns, offering unique artistic effects. It can be used for making letters, animal shapes, trademarks, and decorative items.

Characteristics of Acrylic

Its light transmittance is comparable to glass, but it is only half the density.

It is less fragile than glass. Even when damaged, it does not form sharp shards, reducing the risk of injury.

Its wear resistance is close to that of aluminum, and it resists corrosion from various chemicals.

Applications of Acrylic

Acrylic display stands are widely recognized and used in many retail industries for their excellent display performance. Applications include cosmetic display stands, jewelry display stands, digital product display stands, mobile phone display stands, high-end wine display stands, and high-end watch display stands.

Acrylic Manufacturing Process

Material Cutting: Use a saw machine to cut acrylic to the required size to avoid material waste.

Engraving: After cutting, engrave various complex patterns, text, or logos as required by the shape of the acrylic product.

Drilling: Acrylic can be drilled directly using a desktop drill press, following the processing drawings.

Edge Finishing: After cutting or engraving, the edges of acrylic sheets are often rough and need further smoothing using a vertical single-shaft woodworking milling machine.

Polishing: After cutting, engraving, and drilling, the edges are still rough and need polishing to prevent injury. Different polishing methods are used depending on the product.

Paper Removal: Acrylic sheets come with a protective paper layer that must be removed before bending and silk-screen printing.

Heat Bending: Acrylic can be shaped into different forms through heat bending, which can be either overall or partial.

Silk-Screen Printing: Use UV printing machines to display brand logos or promotional texts as required.

Bonding: The bonding process is done manually and requires strict control to ensure the product is free of misalignment, bubbles, and weak bonds. Common bonding techniques include butt joints, vertical bonding, 45° angle bonding, and surface bonding.

Assembly: Combine the parts to complete a finished product.

Packaging: After final quality inspection, the product is packaged for shipment.

Opal Stone Price: What Determines the Value of This Mesmerizing Gem?

Opals are among the most enchanting gemstones, displaying a kaleidoscope of colors that shift and change with the light. If you’ve ever wondered about the price of opal stone, you’re not alone. The value of opals can vary significantly, depending on factors such as origin, type, color play, clarity, and size. Whether you’re looking for a loose opal or an exquisite piece of jewelry like an opal ring or necklace, understanding the pricing factors can help you make an informed decision.

Factors That Influence Opal Stone Price

1. Type of Opal

The type of opal affects the opal stone price. Opals come in various types, including black opal, white opal, fire opal, and boulder opal. Among these, black opals from Lightning Ridge, Australia, are the most valuable due to their intense play of color and rarity. White and crystal opals are more affordable but still stunning in look.

2. Play-of-Color

One of the most captivating aspects of opals is their play-of-color, which refers to the shifting rainbow hues that appear on the stone’s surface. The more vibrant and diverse the color patterns, the higher the opal’s price. Bright red flashes are the rarest and most expensive, while blue and green hues are more common and slightly less valuable.

3. Clarity and Transparency

Unlike diamonds, opals are prized for their color rather than clarity. However, a clean, crack-free opal with a smooth surface fetches a higher price. Cloudy or heavily included opals are generally lower in value.

4. Carat Weight and Size

Larger opals naturally command higher prices. Since opals are softer than other gemstones, their weight and thickness also affect their durability and overall worth.

5. Origin of the Opal

Australian opals are considered the finest in the world, with the country producing nearly 95% of the global supply. Ethiopian opals are also popular but differ in composition and require extra care. Mexican fire opals, with their orange-to-red hue, are another sought-after variety.

Buying Genuine Opal Rings: What to Look For

When purchasing a genuine opal ring, ensure that the opal is natural and not synthetic or doublet. Doublets and triplets are layered opals that mimic the real thing but lack the durability and value of solid opals. Check for certification from a trusted gemologist and consider the metal setting – gold and platinum enhance the opal’s brilliance.

How Much Does an Opal Cost?

The price of opals can range from as low as $10 per carat for common white opals to over $10,000 per carat for premium black opals. Here’s a general breakdown:

White Opals – $10 to $500 per carat

Boulder Opals – $50 to $3,000 per carat

Black Opals – $1,000 to $10,000+ per carat

Fire Opals – $50 to $2,000 per carat

Prices fluctuate based on the factors mentioned above, so it’s essential to buy from reputable sources when investing in opals.

Buying an Australian Opal Necklace

When considering an Australian opal necklace, look for high-quality stones that exhibit a vibrant play of color. Opt for solid opals rather than doublets or triplets, as they are more valuable and durable. Pay attention to the craftsmanship of the necklace set, whether in gold, silver, or platinum, as it enhances the overall beauty and longevity of the piece. Buying from reputable jewelers or certified opal dealers ensures authenticity and value for your investment.

Final Thoughts

Understanding the price of opal stones and the factors influencing them can help you make an informed purchase. Whether you’re investing in an opal ring or an opal necklace, choosing high-quality stones from reputable dealers will ensure you get the best value for your money. With its unique charm and mesmerizing play-of-color, an opal is a timeless gem worth adding to your collection!

The Beauty and Mystery of Australian Opal

Australian opals are one of the most stunning gemstones, known for their vibrant play-of-color that captures the imagination of gem lovers worldwide. This rare and precious stone is mined primarily in regions like Coober Pedy, Lightning Ridge, and Queensland, making Australia the world's leading source of opals. Each stone boasts a unique pattern, displaying an enchanting spectrum of colors that shift with every movement. Gem enthusiasts and jewelers admire Australian opal for its brilliance and mystique, making it a prized possession for collectors.

The Different Kinds of Opal

Opals come in various types, each with distinctive qualities that set them apart. Black opal, found in Lightning Ridge, is the rarest and most valuable due to its deep, dark body tone that enhances its play of color. White opal, also called milky opal, has a light body tone and a soft, pastel-like color play. Boulder opal, mined in Queensland, is unique for its ironstone backing that adds strength and contrast. Crystal opal, a translucent or semi-transparent variant, displays a vibrant range of hues. These different types of opal are sought after for their beauty and rarity, making them a favorite among collectors and designers.

The Journey of Rough Opal

Opals start as raw opals before becoming wonderful pieces of jewelry. This raw, uncut stone is extracted from deep within the earth, often embedded in ironstone or sandstone. Miners carefully retrieve rough opal from opal fields, assessing its potential for cutting and polishing. Skilled lapidaries sculpt the stone, increasing its innate beauty while retaining its fire and sparkle. Many gem collectors like unpolished opals because they may shape and develop the stone to their creative vision. The transformation of a rough gemstone into a polished beauty is an intriguing process that displays the inherent appeal of opals.

The Appeal of Australian Opal in Jewelry

Australian opals are a popular choice in jewelry, from rings and pendants to earrings and bracelets. Its unique color play makes each piece one-of-a-kind, ensuring no two opals are exactly alike. Jewelers often set opals in gold or sterling silver, complementing their natural radiance. Because of their delicate composition, opals require proper care to maintain their brilliance. They should be stored away from direct sunlight and harsh chemicals to prevent damage. With the right care, opal jewelry can last for generations, serving as a cherished heirloom.

Why Collectors Love the Different Kinds of Opal

Collectors are fascinated by the different kinds of opals, not only for their beauty but also for their historical and geological significance. Some opals contain fossilized plant or animal material, adding to their rarity and intrigue. The market value of opals varies depending on their type, color intensity, and pattern. Black opals, for instance, are highly valued, while boulder opals offer affordability without compromising on visual appeal. Whether for investment or personal enjoyment, collecting opals is a rewarding experience that connects people to nature’s artistry.
