carol’s at the laundromat mat, so:

older!modern!eddie it is.

(tw: implied sexual themes, implied smut/spanking idk. they argue but it’s kind of hot leave me alone.)

Gwen whines, not used to having to sit still for so long and the iPad lost her interest twenty minutes ago. He bounces her on his lap to try and make her laugh but she’s tired and grouchy; he’s out of snacks — forgetting how long this takes when he’s not in control of it. When the only thing you can do is wait.

“Wan’ go home daddy,” she pouts, resting her curly head on his shoulder, “Pwease.”

“I know you do, baby girl,” he coos, big ringed hand smoothing over her back, “But we wouldn’t be here if you didn’t put your crayons in the washing machine.”

She huffs, burying her face in his neck and pushing her body further into him. Maybe if she melts his heart enough he’ll relent and take her home; but he can’t leave you here to do it all yourself.

You come over from switching the loads into the dryer; it’s a dead night so you can use a few to make the process a little faster. You’re about as grouchy as Gwen is; annoyed that you had to retreat and wash the loads you did originally and now that you have to get the washing machine professionally fixed. You run your tongue over your teeth when you sit down next to them, crossing your arms against your chest with a huff that matches your daughters.

Two grouchy girls.

“Why don’t you take her home and I’ll fold it all?” he offers quietly.

“No. I’m the one doing the laundry because you’re so out of touch you can barely work a laundry card. You can deal with an angry toddler,” you snap.

“Well right now I’m dealing with two angry toddlers, so,” he snaps back with a shrug; his voice is cool and calm. The measured tone puts warmth in your chest; perks up your posture.

“I’m not acting like a toddler,” you say back, Gwen occupied now with Eddie’s phone, looking at herself in the front facing camera.

“All that huffing and puffing?” his brows raise, “Coulda fooled me.”

“Shut up, Ed,” your voice sour, reaching into your canvas tote to take out a book while you wait for the clothes to run through the dryer.

“Steeb!” Gwen smiles, the FaceTime ring coming in with his photo in the corner. Eddie tosses you a tight look before answering the call, connecting an AirPod to one ear and the other on Gwen.

“Hold on to it, Gwenny,” he instructs.

“Kay, daddy,” she nods while he holds the phone in front of her face. Steve smiles at the sight of her.

“Hi girl,” he coos, “How are you, lady?”

“We’re at the washa-masheen sto’,” she smiles.

His brow quirks, Eddie leaning forward to explain her toddler-ese, “We’re at the laundromat.”

“Ew. Why?” Steve’s face sours at the thought of a laundromat, sharing machines, leaving things behind.

“Your favorite girl put her 64 pack of crayons in the washing machine so we have to get it repaired,” he sighs.

“Aww, Gwenny,” he pouts into the screen, “You silly girl.”

“It was by assident,” she pouts, lower lip jutting out.

“I know,” he matches her face back at her, apologetic voice on, “You’ve never done anything bad in your life. You never will.”

Eddie let’s a puff of breath out of his mouth with a roll of his eyes, “Yeah wait until she breaks something of yours before you say that.”

“She’s an angel every time she’s in Chicago,” Steve shrugs, “Maybe it’s just you. You’re an angel, right Gwen?”

“I’mma angel, Daddy,” Gwen nods, not really knowing what she means. Eddie giggles at her, running a hand over her soft curls.

“Yeah you are,” he smiles down at her before pressing a kiss to the back of her head while she babbles at Steve. He can still feel your frustration emanating off of you while you hastily turn a page in your book.

He takes a the headphone out of his ear before turning his head your way, voice low with warning, “Sorry, am I bothering you?”

“M’just trying to read,” your voice teeters on bratty when you whisper back to him with narrowed eyes, “You’re both being so fuck—freaking distracting.”

His mouth falls opens slightly in a surprised smile, “You’re in rare fuckin’ form tonight, you hear me?”

“Don’t talk to me like that,” your brow furrowed and on defense.

“Why don’t you go home? I’ll fold while Gwen talks to Steve,” he offers again, “Maybe you can figure out where all this attitude came from on the way there.”

“You can’t carry all that back with Gwen,” you counter, head nodding towards the empty laundry bags next to him.

“We’ll take a car,” he nods bitterly, “Go home. We’ll see you in a little.”

There’s no room for arguing, not when he puts on his authority voice. A voice normally reserved for Gwen when she’s in need of some parental guidance; but he’s used it on you a few times. A reminder — still twelve years your senior.

You suck in your cheeks, chewing on the skin for a minute while you consider it. You put your book back in your bag, tossing your keys in too, “Fine.”

“Fine,” he retorts back. He bounces Gwen to get her attention, “Say bye to mommy, honey.”

She turns, her big baby eyes rounding with confusion, “Bye mommy?”

“I’m gonna run home and start dinner, Gwenny,” you smile at her, forcing yourself not to be annoyed while you soothe her, “You want some chicken tenders and rice?”

“Ya,” she giggles, “Please.”

“Good manners, girlie,” you smile, kissing her on the forehead, “See you in a little.”

“See ya in a widdle,” she parrots back.

“Where’s Peach goin’?” Steve asks when Eddie puts the headphone back in his ear, watching you leave through the automatic doors.

“Home,” he sighs, rubbing his temple, “Dealing with two bratty girls today.”

“Ouch,” Steve nods, “Sorry about that — but, to be fair, Gwen is never bratty.”

“I’m gonna hang up on you, man,” he laughs, pushing his curls out of his eyes while Gwen takes over the conversation again; finally smiley and settling.

Eddie gets home later with the folded laundry and a napping three year old on his hip. He barely speaks when he brings the clothes upstairs and puts Gwen in her room while you work on dinner in the kitchen. Just like the both of you to hold a mini grudge when you don’t know what you’re arguing about in the first place.

He eases down the metal spiral staircase, jeans swapped out for sweats and long socks, t-shirt with the arms cut out that show off his arms and the tops of his obliques.

“You got somethin’ you wanna say to me?” he asks. You slam the oven in response.

“Ooh, okay,” he nods, perked up at the challenge, “Look’it me, huh?”

You look at him from under your lashes, aggravation pumping through you — you don’t even know why you’re mad anymore.

“What’s your problem?” he asks, making his way over to you, pressing you up against the counter while his arms come around to cage you in.

“Just — I don’t know, tired,” you shrug.

“Tired?” he laughs, tilting his head down to run the tip of his nose over your neck, up over your jaw, “You sure?”

Your needy sigh clues him in, you’re not tired.

“Think you need me to help you get over it,” he purrs, “Don’t you, baby?”

You whimper in response, he leaves a long kiss at the hinge of your jaw, “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of you later. I promise.”

“You’re insufferable,” you sigh, trying not to give in to him but wanting to desperately.

“That’s why you married me,” he smirks, coming back up to kiss you softly on the lips, “But keep it up, sweetheart. All that mean girl shit. See if I go easy on you.”

Later that night; you’re both grateful that his office is soundproofed.

The Saregeant's Daughter - Chapter 18 Madeline

"Would you like to be my girlfriend?"

Chicago Med S4 E3: Heavy Is the Head 18+ smut [ horrible smut ahead]

"You ever taken a lead on a case before?" I asked Ava as we walked.

"Not yet" she said.

"Well, todays your lucky day" I said handing her the iPad.

"Mr. And Mrs. Harris, I'm student doctor Curry and this is Doctor Sanchez" she said pointing over at me.

"I'm Lisa"

"Matt"

"So you're 13 weeks pregnant with three days of abdominal pain" she said looking at the iPad screen, "Have you ever had pain like before?"

"No"

"I'm going to examine you, if that's all right" she said as started pressing onto the stomach softy," Have you had some bleeding?"

"No"

"Okay, any complications with your pregnancy?"

"No. I mean not with the pregnancy"

"For years, doctors said Lisa could never get pregnant. We tried and we prayed, but nothing worked, until, one day, it just happened" Matt said.

"Did they tell you why you couldn't get pregnant?" I asked her.

"Something about the shape of my uterus. They did some tests, but whatever it is, it doesn't matter cause we finally have our miracle baby" she said with a small smile.

"So the thing about human anatomy is that even when things may seem like a miracle—"

I cut her off," You know, before we get much further, I think we should check your blood and send you over for a Doppler, just to get some more information. Is that okay?" I said sending them a smile before sending Ava a small glare.

"Yeah, that's okay"

"Great. We'll be back soon" I said walking out of the room.

"Uh first trimester pain in a woman with a atomic abnormalities means that this pregnancy could be ectopic" she said.

I nodded my head, "Yes, but that does not mean that we need to give her a physiology lesson" I said.

"We do if we want her to be informed about her condition" she said with attitude.

I scoffed at her, "she's entitled to her own belief. It is not our job to challenge them"

"It is when they're wrong"

"Ms.Curry, we don't know what we're looking at yet, so just go order the tests" I said before walking away from her.

-

"Is that the baby?" She asked looking at the baby on the screen.

"Yes"

"What?"

"Your pregnancy is ectopic, which means the fetus is implanted outside of your uterus" Dr.Curry said.

"Okay, but can you put it back where it belongs right?" He asked us.

"Unfortunately, we can't"

"And I'm afraid it's implanted on your vena cava, the large vessel that carries blood back to your heart. And from the free fluid I'm seeing in your abdomen tells me that, unfortunately, the vessel is leaking" I said.

"So how do you stop it?" She asked.

"I mean, you need an operation. The surgeon will have to remove the fetus and then repair the vessel" Dr.Curry said.

"Wait, you mean we....could lose our baby?" He said.

"I'm sorry, but you would in any case because of where it's implanted. There's no possible way that it'll survive long enough to be viable"

"In surgery we will keep your blood from getting out of control, so we need to get you ip to the OR as soon as possible" I said.

"No" she said pulling down her shirt to cover her belly.

"I'm sorry?" I asked confused.

"I am not having surgery" she said getting up from the bed.

"I don't think you understand. If we don't operate, you're going to die" Dr.Curry said.

"No, you don't understand. This baby is a miracle. And god will take care of it"

-

"Your patient, Mrs.Harris, just passed the brief psychiatric rating scale with flying colors" Dr.Charles said as he walked up to us.

"You actually think she's capable of making this decision?" I said looking at him.

"She is holding on to a very strong belief, but other than that she's seems entirely reasonable" he said.

"Reasonable ? She thinks God is going to save a fetus with a 0% chance of survival. That's delusional" she said.

"Well, in my experience, it's not always so easy to figure out where belief ends and delusion begins. I mean, faith is a supreme being is held by an overwhelming majority of humans"

"Okay, but if we don't do something, she's going to die" I said.

"Can't force a procedure on her that she doesn't want" he said.

"We're her doctors. Our job is to fix her, not argue about theology. I'm sorry, but this is—this is ridiculous"

"Ms.Curry, I appreciate that this is a complicated situation, but our job, in fact, is to treat our patients to the best of our ability while honoring their cultural, spiritual, and religious beliefs" he said taking a deep breath, "She's allowed to make her own decisions whether we agree with them or not"

-

I was extremely nervous for tonight to go on the date with Jay, we did get much closer since I always visited him after work or he would stay with me.

"Dr.Sanchez"

"Yes"

"The ICU just called. Mrs.Harris's pressures dropping"

"Coming" I said moving away from the computer.

"She's 90/60" Dr.Curry said as we walked into the room.

"What's going on?" Her husband asked us.

"Let's see" I said pushing down on her stomach,"You're losing too much blood. We need to get you to surgery now"

"I already told you no"

"Honey, maybe we should listen to them"

"Not you too, Matt. I am not having surgery" she said.

"Lisa—"

"Please stop. For 12 years all I wanted was to bring a new life into this world, and finally...God has rewarded my patience. And I don't believe that he would turn around and take it all away"

"What if he did take it away?" Dr.Curry said causing all to look at her.

"What?"

"If the fetus were to....stop living because if the blood loss, would you give us permission to do the surgery then, to let us save your life?"

"What are you—why is she even talking about this? That's not gonna happen"

"She's just asking" he said.

"So will you at least agree to that?" Dr.Curry said, "if the fetus dies"

"Fine, if that happened, which it won't, then...yes, I would have a surgery. Can we stop talking about this?"

"Of course. Bolus a liter of saline, and type and cross for six and six, and give her two units of uncrossed blood now" I said the nurse, "We'll be back to check on you shortly okay?"

"Okay"

"Thank you" I said before walking out of the room.

"Ms.Curry, that was a disturbing, tactless question. Why did you ask that?" I said.

"Because we—we should know, right? To be prepared"

"No, there is a difference between being prepared and terrifying a sick woman" I said before walking away.

-

The beeping was heard from Ms.Harris's room i rushed in putting on some gloves.

I checked a pulse and didn't feel anything, "Ultrasound. Start the MTP" I said.

"What's happening to her?"

"Her Internal bleeding is getting worse" I said placing gel on her belly, "Katie, call the OP"

"Lisa!"

"BPs 90/51"

"I need to take you to surgery right now" I said.

"No, my baby"

"Lisa, listen to her" her husband said pleading with her.

"Ms.Harris, I need your consent. We don't have a lot of time" I said.

"I can't find a heartbeat" Dr.Curry said.

"What?" I said turning to look at Dr.Curry that was standing behind me.

"The fetus"

"What is it?" She said.

I turned to look at the screen and didn't see one.

"There's no heartbeat. It's heart isn't beating" she said.

"No"

"I'm sorry but the fetus is no longer alive" I said.

"No"

"I need to take you to surgery right now"

"Lisa, come on. We have to go" he said.

"My baby" she said crying.

"BPs 70/35" the nurse said.

"Ms.Harris, look at me. I need to take you to surgery right now, if I don't, you will die" I said holding her shoulder.

"Lisa"

"Mrs.Harris, please. Please"

"Okay" she said crying.

"All right let's go!" I said as we pushed the bed out of the room to the OR.

-

I left the OR and made my way towards the elevator.

"Hey. I heard Ms.Harris agreed to the surgery once she lost the fetal heartbeat" Dr.Charles walked up to me as I stood by the elevator.

"They got to her in time. She's gonna make it" I said nodding my head.

"Well, that's a relief"

"Yeah, but, even though the fetus wasn't viable, it's heart was still beating when they opened Lisa up" I said turning to look at him.

"Really?"

"Yeah, I've got to tell tech that there was a malfunction with the ultrasound" I said entering the elevator.

-

"To have so much faith in something and then have it go so wrong" I said looking at them from them from the outside.

"Yeah. Are you gonna...are you gonna tell her about the—the fetal heartbeat. I'm happy to" Dr.Charles said.

"No. No, I'll tell her. I just hate to have to tell her at all" I said turning to look at him.

I took a deep breath and walked into the room.

"I'm so sorry. When you were opened up the fetus still had a heartbeat" I said.

She started crying.

"Again, I'm so sorry when we check on the ultrasound it showed the fetus had no heartbeat"

-

I placed down the blow dryer on my vanity and started on my makeup. I did a warm brown black smoky eyeshadow look and paired with red lipstick and lipgloss. I decided to straighten my hair since I wasn't in the mood for curls plus Jay would be here in 15 minutes I stood up from my seat grabbed my dress of my bed I dropped my towel onto the ground and put on the red dress that had sliver chain straps the dress stopped mid thigh and I didn't have to wear a bra with this dress my black thong wasn't seen though the dress I slipped on my black red bottom heels. After I had my dress and heels on I grabbed my YSL handbag and stuffed my lipstick, lipgloss, keys, and wallet into my bag.

I sprayed on my dior perfume right as I finish spraying it around my whole body. Three knocks where heard.

I checked myself out in the mirror and I was happy with myself and I rushed to opened the door.

I opened the door and their stood Jay in a nice all black suit with flowers in hand.

"Wow, your breathtaking" he said biting his lip as he checked me out.

"Thank you" I said smiling at him.

"I got you these flowers" he said handing me the Bouquet of flowers.

"These are gorgeous Jay, let me put them in a jar of water before we head out, why don't you come in" I said opening the door winder for him to come in.

I quickly filled up a jar of water and placed the bouquet of flowers that had yellow flowers along with some white flowers before I placed them on the kitchen island.

"All right let's get going" I said walking up to Jay.

-

We arrived at the restaurant that had a view of the city, the waiter had all ready brought our food for us.

I order a steak with a vegetable and Jay ordered the same as well and we were drinking some red wine.

"The food is amazing" I said as I took a bite of the steak.

"That great and your right the steak is amazing" he said chucking before drinking his wine.

As we continued eating our dinner and talking the whole time Jay couldn't keep his eyes off me, I teased him a couple times as well.

By the time we finished our dinner I was tipsy and Jay wasn't at all.

We walked towards his truck, as I held onto his arm so I wouldn't trip and fall face flat onto the hard concrete that would be totally embarrassing.

"Jay" I said as I climbed into the car.

"What?" He said as he turned on the car.

"Can we go for a walk?" I asked him.

"Sure" he said as he pulled out of the parking lot.

-

The cold wind felt amazing the breeze sent chills down my shoulder Jay must have noticed and brought me closer against his warm body.

"Are you cold?" He asked kissing my shoulder.

"A little bit" I said chuckling softy.

"Okay, why don't we head back then but before we do can I ask you something?" He said.

"Yea, of course" I said sending him a smile.

He took two deep breaths,"Madeline, I really like you and I see a future with you and I was wondering if you like to be my girlfriend" he said sending me a smile.

I sent him a smile, I was extremely happy when he asked me sure it's might have taken him a while to ask me but I still extremely happy he finally asked me.

"Jay Halstead, I would love to be your girlfriend" I said smiling like an idiot.

His face then turned into the biggest smile before he leaned down and captured my lips with his.

His lips where soft they tasted like the wine we had, I parted my lips slightly to allow his tough to slip in. His hands moved down my body and he pulled me much closer that I forgot that I was cold in the first place. A small moan left my lips and I could feel a smirk form on face. I pulled away and he pressed his forehead against mine. I was left breathless from that kiss I could smell his doir Cologne due to how closer our bodies where.

"Wow" I said catching my breath.

"Madeline, I love you" he said kissing my lips softy.

"I love you as well Jay" I said giggling, "but now I'm horny"

He laughed at me," why don't I help you take care of that" he whispered into my ear.

-

18 +

Jay puts me down the down before pushing down onto the mattress, he claimed on top of me and pushed my legs open with his hand.

His hand traveled up my thigh and stopped when he reach my underwear, a small moan slipped out of my mouth.

"Jay" I whimper as he removed my dress slowly.

The cold breeze in my room made my nipples harden, Jays eyes harden when he saw I wasn't wearing a bra underneath my dress.

"No bra" he said leaning down and kissing down my neck.

He kissed my neck and when he found my sweet spot he bit and sucked on my neck, a loud moan ripped out of my mouth as he moved down to my boobs.

He took my right nipple into his mouth and with his left hand he played with my left nipple. I moan out as he licked and sucked my boobs.

"Jay" I said throwing my head back and grabbed onto the sheets.

He then switched onto my left boob and did the same thing as well. He slowly moved down to my stomach leaving trail of kiss till he reach the hem of my black thong.

He then ripped it off, "Jay please" I pleaded with him.

I saw his head lead down and kissed my sensitive clit, I tightened my grip on the bed sheets as he kissed my pussy then he tongue slipped in.

I moan out at his name not caring that my neighbor are hearing me moan his name out.

"Oh-god, yes jay!" I cried out as I came into his mouth.

"You taste so good" he said looking up licking his lips,"why don't you taste yourself" as he lips kissed you and his tongue slipped it, I sucked his lip and tasted my come on his lip.

"Fuck me please" I whispered into her ear as I bit his ear lobe softy.

He unbuttoned his shirt I helped him by removing his belt and pulled down his pants along with his boxers.

"Easy there baby" he said throwing his clothes on my bedroom floor.

"Jay, now and I want it rough" I said turning to grab a condom from my side table.

I ripped by package opens with my teeth not caring that I looked like a desperate whore. I need him now.

He lined himself at at my entrance and slammed into me, my headboard was hitting the wall loud and hard.

He pushed through my walls, "baby," he panted.

I warped my arms around his neck as I felt my pussy clenched around his cock.

He was pounding into me hard, "your so tight" He groaned out.

He turned us around and now I was on top of him, I started bouncing onto top of his as my boobs bounced up and down. He reach up and grabbed my boobs and played with them, he sat him self up and started sucking on my neck and boobs, I ran my nails down his back, he switched our position and I was at the bottom again.

He slammed into one more time and I came, "Jay" I moan out throwing my head back.

He continued to fuck me during my orgasm.

"That's it baby" he said kissing my lips, "you feel so good" as he came inside me.

He pulled out slowly and I knew I was going to be sore tomorrow, he laid down beside me.

I lifted my fingertip and tried my best to clean my red lipstick stain from around his lips.

"I love you jay" I said kissing his lips.

"I love you as well babe" he said kissing my shoulder.

I slowly felt my eyelids close and I fell asleep in his embrace.

Computers R Us - The Best Place to Shop For an iPhone

Computers, electronics, Samsung phones, iPhones, iPad's and Android phones are all known to be very expensive. If you have any of these gadgets and you are thinking of replacing them, it may be difficult for you to do so without spending more than what you can afford. But before you fret about the costs of these electronic devices, why not make use of Samsung phone repair services? The company has branches in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles, New York, Orange County, Phoenix, Sarasota, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Tampa, Washington DC, Las Vegas and Phoenix. So no matter where you live, if your Samsung phone is broken, you can easily avail of its services.

Computers, electronics, Samsung phones, iphone repair and Android phones are all known to be quite expensive. They may also break down frequently and may need replacement. For this reason, you should ensure that you purchase the right tool for the right job. There are a lot of repair shops that claim to be specialists in Samsung phone, Apple iPhone and other cell phone repairs. But how do you find one that offers the best quality service with the most competitive price?

Computers, Samsung phones, iPad's and Android phones need much more attention from a repair man than normal mobile phones do. It is not only because they are more delicate but also because they require more intensive repairs. If you go to a regular mobile phone store, you will find lots of tools but these tools will not be appropriate for your Samsung, apple iPhone or other brand of cell phone. For example, if you need to replace the screen on your Samsung laptop, then you won't be able to use the pneumatic tool that the regular Samsung store provides.

You can also get the same quality services if you visit the Computers R Us website instead. The company provides a wide range of computer services and accessories and even offers a 24 hours help desk number. Computers, Samsung phones, iPad's and other brands of cell phones are all known to suffer from water damage. However, you will find that there is no such thing as a simple repair. When you have a water damaged Samsung laptop or other brand of cell phone, you should have it repaired by an expert who has experience in water damage repair.

If you have an older Samsung phone, then you should have it serviced by a Computers R Us store as well. You will have to provide the model and telephone number of your phone in order to receive a quote. When you mention the price of the repair, you should also mention the approximate time required to complete the job. The company accepts iPhone and iPad models of the same line and even with a water damaged battery, you can receive an estimate within an hour. The company charges $30 for an iPhone, but the price includes shipping costs.

In Computers R Us, there are many options available to make the best services to its customers. There are also several features and discounts available when you shop at the site. This is why it is said to be the best place to shop for an iPhone or any other mobile phone. If you want to learn more about the company and its products, you can visit their website and check out all the products that they have to offer. The website also provides with information about the nearest Computers R Us store which is conveniently located near your home or office.

Apple's latest iPad may be boring, but it's the perfect tablet for most people (AAPL)

There's one word that sums up Apple's latest iPad: safe. 

The new 9.7-inch device debuted earlier this month at an education-focused event in Chicago. Apple seemed to bill the device as the perfect option for schools, but as a sensible consumer product, too.

The new iPad has a more powerful A10 chip built in and has support for Apple's $100 stylus, called Apple Pencil. But the new iPad lacks a certain freshness. It's not a design risk like the iPhone X, nor is it a true low-cost, kid-friendly-ish option like the iPhone 5c. The new iPad's design has been recycled, its guts have been — nearly — duplicated, and even its cost remains the same (unless you're a school, teacher, or student, in which case, the price is now 10% cheaper). 

This isn't necessarily a bad move on Apple's part, though. 

For anyone who's actively shopping for a tablet for the first time, someone looking for a lower-cost MacBook replacement, or for an iPad fan in desperate need of an upgrade, the new iPad is the perfect choice.

In fact, I've spent the last week using the newest iPad with an Apple Pencil, and it's already filled a technology gap I didn't even know I had. 

SEE ALSO: The $200 Fitbit Versa is the best smartwatch I've ever used — yes, even better than the Apple Watch

First things first: this is not a device for kids.

Let's get one thing out of the way right off the bat: It's absurd that Apple is marketing this iPad as a practical option for schools.

There's nothing about the new iPad's design that differentiates it from other models or makes it well-suited to kids. It doesn't come with a protective case and it isn't any more durable than other iPads. It has a large glass screen, and if it breaks, it's really not easy to repair. If adults are prone to breaking their expensive devices, why does anyone at Apple think children will fare any better? 

It's also odd that the new iPad is being presented as a reasonably priced option. At $330, it costs the same as last year's model — even the $30 education discount is identical. Plus, in order to for schools to give their students the best iPad experience, they'll need to buy accessories like a case, and an Apple Pencil ($90 for schools) or Logitech Crayon ($50).

While I'm sure kids would be thrilled to have an iPad to use in their classrooms, it just doesn't make a lot of sense from a financial standpoint — especially when there are more affordable, less vulnerable computers out there.

Apple Pencil doesn't seem like a great tool for children, either.

One of the few new things about the iPad is that it supports Apple Pencil, a feature previously reserved for the iPad Pro.

I honestly loved using the Pencil, and it quickly became one of my favorite Apple products I've ever used (more on that later). But over the course of testing the iPad and the Pencil, it became increasingly obvious that this is not a product I would ever give to a child. 

For one, in order to charge up or pair Apple Pencil with your iPad, you have to plug it into the Lightning port at the bottom of the iPad. The Apple Pencil sticks straight out of the tablet like a weapon, which doesn't seem all that kid-friendly.

The Apple Pencil is also both very expensive and very easy to lose. It doesn't attach to the iPad in any way (unless you're charging it — but again, that makes it a weapon), and I frequently faced the issue of where to store it so I didn't lose it. The Pencil is slippery and rounded, and kept rolling off my desk or any table I set it on. It also has removable cap, which isn't attached to the Pencil at all. Not only is the cap a choking hazard, but it seems laughably easy to lose as well. 

I'm a 26-year-old person who rarely every loses things, and even I was constantly concerned about misplacing or dropping the Apple Pencil — I can't imagine how a child would keep track of it. 

From a consumer standpoint, though, there's a lot to love about the iPad.

One knock against the iPad is that Apple didn't really change its design from previous models. It's a safe choice, and it's hard to get excited about a product that looks exactly like last year's version. 

I don't think this is the greatest decision on Apple's part, but I am starting to see the merits after a week of using the device. By prioritizing function and cost-effectiveness over cutting-edge design, Apple made an iPad that's reasonably priced for consumers and remains easy to use for most people.

If Apple had released an iPad with an iPhone X-like design — which it still might do! — it would have been going too far in the other direction. I feel like I was able to get more use out of the iPad because it was somewhat basic and boring — I wasn't wasting time fiddling with Face ID or trying to figure out which iPad apps worked well with the notch.

If the iPad is a truly being positioned as a productivity tool, keeping the old design is the best choice — at least for now.

AE Studio: Customization, Collaboration—and Free Laundry?

American Eagle Outfitters is turning 40 this year but it’s still young at heart—a necessary attitude if it’s going to connect with its youthful target audience. As part of the celebration it’s testing a retail concept in downtown New York, overlooking the youthful hubbub that is Union Square.

— American Eagle (@AEO) October 25, 2017

Its remodeled store overlooking Union Square will reopen to the public on November 10th as AE Studio. While its existing store was quite crowded and chaotic on the ground floor, the AE Studio space, as seen at a preview party last week, is more curated, more interactive, more engaging—and more fun.

This right here is legit …40 years of #awesomenesssss est. 11.25.77⭐️#aeonsorocks #aeoteamwork #aeodreamwork #aeofamily #aeofun #aeowoa #AEstudio #WeAllCan #TheNSOexperience.

A post shared by aeoNSOrocks (@aeo_nsorocks) on Oct 18, 2017 at 6:23pm PDT

It’s all about creating a memorable brand experience and customer experience. So AE Jeans are front and center on the ground floor’s Jeans Gallery, where shoppers can try and buy jeans from its denim collections.

The centerpiece is a new collaboration with Atelier & Repairs, reworking and customizing denim and apparel from AE’s previous collections into new pieces that customers can purchase.

Co-founded by Maurizio Donadi, the former SVP of Levi’s XX, Atelier & Repairs upcycles denim into works of art, each imbued with a sustainable fashion philosophy that aims to reduce waste and elevate consumers’ consciousness.

The bespoke collection—each new garment is one of a kind—is priced from $48 to $128 and currently sold at 22 AE stores nationwide including Chicago, San Francisco, Dallas, Boston and Miami.

AE Studio will also feature denim customization stations and free on-site laundry facilities for neighboring students. The store will also sell NYU produce designed by American Eagle’s sister brand Tailgate, which caters to that cohort.

The overall intent of AE Studio is to create a hub for testing new brand experiences—new kinds of products, and new ways for customers to interact with them, and each other.

“As we celebrate the success of the last four decades, we look ahead to create new brand experiences to inspire today’s customer, and broaden our leadership in jeans,” stated Chad Kessler, American Eagle Outfitters Global Brand President. “AE Studio is a perfect example of our evolution where we invite customers to enjoy a unique brand experience, feel at home, and curate their distinct individual style.”

He added, “We’re the No. 2 jeans retailer in America, and our goal is to be No. 1.The goal for AE Studio is to be a lab for us to see the customer reaction firsthand and learn about our new experience.”

Staying relevant is the new bar to scale in experiential marketing as retailers scramble to meet increased demand from consumers who are fickle in their tastes and precious with their time.

The AE Studio experience includes:

· Jeans Gallery featuring an in-store Maker’s Shop – Customers can shop AE’s extensive jeans collection and create one-of-a-kind pieces. The Maker’s Shop will feature options for customers to personalize their AE Jeans to fit their distinctive style.

· Real-time Social Media Team – AE’s social media team will have an in-store work space to directly engage with customers. Working in the heart of the studio, they’ll create content in real time and keep their finger on the pulse of the brand.
