#various spare parts for pump

[sol-consort]

Do you see Wrex and shepard together? Because I low-key think they have like sexual chemistry

OH BOY DO I!

It starts as enemies to firends to lovers, but then quickly spirals into forbidden love territory once he acquires the throne.

Remember that first meeting scene in ME1?

When the Citadel C-sec were too intimidated by Wrex to even dare and hold him down? The krogan assumes all humans tend to cower in front of someone his size.

How Shepard literally marches in there, calls him by his first name, then offers to shake his hand so casually? Full of confidence and poise? Not afraid to meet his eyes.

Yeah, that scene? Every single pixel is flooded with sexual and romantic tension.

Both Paragon and Renegade Shepard have the best chemistry with Wrex full stop.

The scene after it where Wrex deliberately disobeys Paragon Shep command to spare this guy's life, shooting him in the head because "he had a contract" Testing the limit to what this human allows him to get away with, pushing boundaries.

How Shep immediately snaps at him, addressing him down as a commander still despite him disrespecting your authority.

Showing him that this isn't the way things work around here, you won't tolerate this act from him a second time. He already used his one chance, and he better be on his best behaviour going forward.

Genuinely catching Wrex off-guard, he never expected the humans to have barks, let alone the power to follow it with bite. A part of him is even a little ashamed of his action, but he'd rather die than apologise to a human he just met, so he just gives a vague promise not to do it again.

Which might seem small, but to a contractual killer krogan who never trusted a single soul ever since he left his planet young, it's so much more.

The first building blocks to the long bridge of trust being established between them was set by Wrex.

And if you finish his target alone without bringing him along, what does Wrex do? He pays you. He hands you what he views as your rightful share for aiding with his job.

It's established early on that Wrex has honour, he has pride and more self-awareness that anyone would ever expect of him. He keeps his temper in control, is more cunning and logical than people expect of a "krogan"

How he doesn't hesitate to leave a situation when something feels off, his intuition and gut feeling had saved his life countless times.

-

You keep trying to have small talks with him whenever you come down to the dock of your ship, and he just doesn't understand why.

What are your intentions? Is it just curiosity from him being the first Korgan you see? Or are you just digging for information out of mistrust, doubting his abilities as a capable mercenary.

He always hated the employers who kept peering over his shoulders, poking their nose into things that do not concer them.

The job you assigned him will get done, stop bothering him.

In fact, that's why he shares the story about his previous employers. The various times he was ruthless just to get a job done, even when he had to face a friend in combat. Painting himself as a hardened soul.

...so why are you looking at him like that?

See? He has no heart, in fact, despite the three pumping in his chest. So are you convinced yet?

Yes, he is the epitome of the big, strong scary Korgan. The same one all the other species warned you so much about.

Instead of being impressed, intimidated, or both. You look at him with concern, as if he's a bird with broken wings that fell into your palm.

You inquire about his homeplanet.

The usual bitterness that threaten to come out in a pile upwards his throat each time he retells this story...is less severe this time around. It's easier to get out, to go more into details around you.

You never interrupt him, you let him talk. Thoughtfully listening, only speaking when it's your turn.

He doesn't know what to say.

By the end, you...apologise.

For someone to finally acknowledge the wrongs that have been done against his own kind, the injustice the krogans continue to suffer to this day.

A salarian would've gone into a long tangent about why it was a necessary evil, an asari would've offered faux pity before reminding him of the shiny statue in the citadel as if that makes up for the billions of krogan stillborns every year. A turian would've acted as this was a righteous punishment, that krogans should never be trusted until they prove they're capable of civility.

But you, human...Shepard, apologised.

Next time you stop by, he doesn't know why he even brings up the family crest. The rotten armour has been buzzing at the back of his mind like an annoying fly.

Wrex just blurted it out, his tongue loose around you for some reason, something he noticed but was still in denial about–either way, you make a promise to retrieve it.

He snorts.

Okay, he'll believe it when he sees it, Shep.

...

..

.

Standing there in front of the platinum wall locker, Wrex claws tremble as he opens the door. The urge to dislodge the thing from its hinges gnaws at the back of his mind, but he resists it. He knows better than to risk damaging the container of what's supposed to be a centuries old piece of armour.

He can't fucking believe his eyes.

It's there, in his hand. As ugly and vile smelling as he imagined.

And you by his side, you pawny little human who invaded this base like a storm, what a deadly force you are.

For the first time in decades, Wrex is hopeful again. Shepard reignited the flame of determination that always were inside him, the same snuffed out so cruelly by his father that forsaken day.

-

He followed you to Virmire, fully ready to risk his life for your cause. Not out of some obligation or contractual work, but because he believed in it, he believed in you, commander.

So why can't you extend him the same courtesy? Why must you oppose him when a cure is practically at the tip of his fingers?

It pains him as he raises the gun, the same sting he felt the day he drove the knife into his father's chest, the same despair wrangling his heart the day he put a bullet through his only friend's skull.

You expressed your sympathy for the tragedy of his people, didn't you? Or was it just a game of pretend to gain his trust?

So why can't you understand!

You of all people! He thought you would understand better than anyone.

But he doesn't pull the trigger.

You raise your gun, both of you know it won't do shit against him. A krogan shell can endure many bullets before any real damage is done, your squishy skin however? Yeah, not so much so.

No. The gun was akin to a flare instead. Gives a good reason for your crew to come running to your aid, for the salarian special unit to herald a shower of bullets upon him under the guise of "defending the human soldiers"

It will spell his doom in a much more painful way than the simple bullet he planned to plant directly into your heart ever could've.

The singular delicate human heart, how small it must be inside your chest. Yet this one fragile organ infected his three sturdy hearts with its determination.

How you risked your one heart for him that day you helped him retrieve his family crest.

Wrex...

is tried.

Beyond anything, he is so tried and sick of constantly fighting all the time.

He lowers his gun.

Yet the soldiers around you don't lower theirs until you do.

He tries not to let it get under his skin.

He fails.

Swallowing his pride, Wrex recollects the remains of his dignity. He must be in control of his emotions, never show too much fury, otherwise the world will weaponise it against him, claiming this is exactly why krogans don't deserve to join the rest of the galaxy yet.

They can choke on his dick.

-

There are just so many other scenes! I can go on forever.

The biggest one of them all, Grunt and how his whole mission could be interpreted as the best romance subplot between Wrex and Shepard.

Shep finds a Krogan teen who's going through puberty and what's your next course of action? Take him to his homeplanet and visit your ex the Krogan you may or may not have had a situationship with, the one you inspired to change his entire life, to go make a difference in the world.

Shep is Wrex's biggest muse, a nymph from the woods that flipped his world upside down. More deadly and dangerous than all the other warriors he has ever seen, as determined and inspiring as the greatest leaders. The krogan equivalent of a warrior angel.

And what does he do when this Valkyrie whom he thought had died walks back into his life so casually?

He is absolutely rejoiced. Couldn't give less of a shit about Cerberus or anything. Shepard is still Shepard, and you're here, alive, well, in front of him. As gorgeous as the day he lost you.

Not only that, but you came with a child. And you're asking him for guidance and help on raising him? Shepard, you shouldn't toy with a man's heart this much. Otherwise, he'll get the wrong impression.

Wrex practically treats Grunt as his own son and adopts him by the end of the mission. Not only that, but there is a big chance the "mating request" sent in for Shepard afterwards was actually Wrex's.

You get to play family for a day. Your son is just as powerful as you are. Wrex gets a glimpse of what it would've been like to raise him by your side, the life he could've had with Shepard.

But he cannot, he has obligations, ones he actually likes this time around. The krogans need a leader, the planet needs restoration. It's time to take responsibility for the state of his homeworld and not just chalk it up to "how krogans always were" Because that's simply not true.

The women remember it, their art, history, and beautiful complex culture. The men have gone senile with the war, Wrex needs to beat some sense into them. He'll drag all the clans with him to a better life whether they like it or not

And part of him...well. He knows you're the one he wants most, but is he the one you really want? Everyone in your crew is already drooling over you, Wrex is more dignified than to be just another obnoxious suiter chasing after you.

Not to mention, it's part of his job to get married to a krogan so the clans get another leader. You're a human, it will never work out. You have your own life, your own obligations and mission to save the galaxy.

It makes his dream to restore his planet pale in comparison, but Wrex isn't so fragile in his security that he'd get intimidated by that. If anything, it makes him yearn for you even more, admire you whole, impressed by your every achievements that outweigh his, rather than trying to dampen your blinding brightness.

Maybe, in the–hopefully near–future, your children and his can play together on this very same land. But instead of rubble, it will be grassy fields, you and Wrex taking a stroll in the gardens nearby while watching over both of your kids.

And for a moment, Wrex can close his eyes and pretend the ring pressing gainst his skin as he holds your hand, is a one that he gave you.

Would it be Wrex Shepard or would you prefer the Urdnot lastname?

Don't tell him.

He'd rather dream.

He earned it, after all that he sacrificed and everything gave in order to restore the glory to his people, he earned the right to dream.

➜ Simon Riley x gn!reader

➜ 990 words, breakup angst

➜ finished an old piece real quick, it is very unedited but lets not talk abt that! Also unrelated but does anyone else feel like music videos have died...idek if that makes sense.

You wanted to erase him from your mind. Make it as if he’d never existed and spare yourself the heart renching pain that burned your chest as you stared up at the ceiling blankly. The little memory’s of the two of you seemed to project themselves onto the dimly lit white plaster. Each one flashed in your mind like a slideshow. It felt as if someone was reaching into your chest and crushing your heart in their hand with each scene.  

This feeling of heartbreak was foreign to you, you’d never been so devastated over a breakup. So what made him so different?  

You didn’t know how to deal with this nauseating, gut renching pain that seemed to explode from every inch of your body. Your face was swollen from crying, eyes blood shot as they stung with fresh tears. Your body trembled in exhaustion, heavy sobs turning into pathetic whimpers.  

Your hands came up to cover your face as the tremors in your body amplified as another wave of grief hit you. 

He was only one person who could quell the pain you felt, but he was also the cause of it. All you needed was to hear his voice. That alone would be enough to soothe your broken heart. You were sure it wasn’t appropriate to call him. You knew very well it wasn’t. No one calls their ex. 

But your hand seemed to have a mind of its own though, leaving your face to rummage around your nightstand table. You barely heard the loud clatter through your cries as you pushed various items off your nightstand in a desperate search for your phone. Your fingers grazed over it shortly after pushing one of your perfume bottles over, and you greedily grabbed at it, renching it off the charging cord to unlock it.  

You have to squint against the harsh glare of the blue light, your tears obscuring the images displayed as you swiped onto his contact. You’d never hit call so fast in your life, clutching your phone like a life line as your mind begged him to pick up. You knew he wasn’t asleep, he rarely slept much to start with, and when he did he’d doze of around two or three am, never earlier. It was still only twelve.  

Time seemed to stretch on excruciatingly slowly with every ring, your whimpers becoming desperate and the tears flowing faster.  

Finally, after what felt like an eternity the ringing stopped abruptly and your phone beeped to signal he’d picked up. Your raw sob was ripped from you as you heard his gruff voice filter through the speaker.  

“Hello?” He sounded groggy; voice laced in exhaustion, but you couldn’t care.  

“Simon,” you choked out, your chest heaved, relief washing over you at the sound of his voice. 

From the other side of the phone his eyes widened, all hints of exhaustion leaving him in an instant. He sat up, fully alert now.   

“Y/n?” He asked incredulously. You replied with another sob, this one much louder than the last. He was frozen, unsure of what to do as you cried, it hurt him to know he was the cause of your pain but the rational part of him knew you were better off without him. The sounds of your cries tore him apart, and your next words hurt even more.  

“It hurts so much Simon,” You cried, “and it’s all your fault. I hate you so much.”  

“I know love...” he whispered, speaking more to himself than you as hiccups began to break your pained wails. “It’s for the better though.”  

There's a pause of wordless silence, only filled with the sound of your tears. His heart thumps in pain, spreading the poison of guilt through his body, pumping it into his veins. It’s as if you’re trying to make him feel worse about this than he already does as you try to gather enough strength to speak through your sobs and translate the garbled screams of thought going off in your head.  

“No-” hiccup. “No Simon, you don’t get to say that-” hiccup. “Because there is nothing better about this,” you don’t have to specify what ‘this’ is. He knows exactly what you mean because he feels it to. He hears it with every sob, and cry, he feels it with every pang of his heart and word spoken to you under such circumstance. Circumstances he caused.  

You continue, “and you can sit there, in your stupid plain apartment, and go out with your stupid friends and you can pretend that the last year meant absolutely nothing to you but I know that at the end of the day, when your lying in bed waiting to fall asleep in a cold, empty bed, it hurts you just as much is it hurts me.”  

Simon doesn’t cry, you’d never seen a single tear even build in his eyes. You’d even used to joke about how there was no heart under all that military gear, but at this moment he feel his eyes sting with the foreign feeling of tears, and his throat tightens. He swallows heavily at your words, blinking rapidly.  

“Why’d you call me sweetheart?” You’d say the nickname makes you sob even harder, but you're not sure that’s possible. You’re too hurt to lie to him.  

“B-because I needed you Simon,” you want to scream at yourself.  

“Even though I’m the one who hurt you?” he questions idly, throwing the covers off himself and rushing to grab his car keys. A half laugh leaves you and it almost brings him to smile, but its quickly followed by another sob.  

“Even though you’re the one who hurt me,” you repeat back to him in confirmation, and for some odd reason he feels his heart swell with love. He slips on his shoes quickly, and opens the door, you can hear it creek on the other side of the line.  

“I’m on my way sweetheart.”

i really need to talk about why Gestalt is the perfect song to kick off Kaf's new era a little bit or i'm going to explode

talking about this requires some background knowledge and i'm aware most people who are going to read this probably don't know that much about Kaf so i'll talk about her history a little bit - Gestalt is Kaf's first solo release in a whole year. this is a considerably long time for her, and it's because the person who had been writing her songs for/with her for her entire career, Kanzaki Iori, left Kamitsubaki Studio early last year due to personal complications with himself as an artist (he is still on very good terms with Kaf and the rest of Kamitsubaki's staff!!)

additionally, Kaf's music with Kanzaki had always primarily been centered on various bittersweet and painful themes, but especially the pain of growing up/becoming an adult. this was especially pertinent because Kaf started Being Kaf when she was 14 years old, so she was singing from a place of genuine teenage angst. as she began to inch closer to adulthood and then became an adult herself, however, the feeling of her music shifted from singing about a far-off adult future, to an incredibly immediate one, with songs like her final song with Kanzaki, Kaikou, but especially Kyoukankaku which also came out during those last few months of Kanzaki being around. (i will spare you a whole ramble about these songs, you just have to take my word on the thematics up to this point lol. feel free to look into it further if you like)

so, Kanzaki leaving left Kaf in a bit of a limbo state for a while since so much of her musical identity was built off of her work with him and the topics they explored. she would need to form a new musical identity and figure out where to go from Kanzaki leaving... she spent about a year releasing her last songs with him as well as pumping out covers and collaboration songs with other musicians. but now, finally, she's back to releasing her own work! Gestalt was actually debuted at her KAIKA concert back in January, but only now has the studio release and full music video come out.

Gestalt is representational of her finally entering her new era after this big transitional period. even the official english description for Gestalt says:

KAF embarks on the next stage of her journey.

and oh boy does she!!!

Gestalt looks and feels like a super fun dance song in both the song itself and the MV. the description also says:

Over a year since KAF's last solo release, "Gestalt" is a 'killer dance tune' for the modern age.

and they're right. it is a killer dance tune. this shit slaps. but there's more to it than that.

it's immediately apparent when looking at the lyrics that there's more going on here - take this bit from the official english translation of the first verse for example:

From emotions to configurations When they start to break down I lose all understanding In so many ways Ahh I can't breathe Celebrating suffocation I can't take this

doesn't sound very fun or happy right? sounds chaotic. kaf is suffocating. she is losing her shit. but then it's followed up with:

Drop the beat! This disruptive Unnatural Forbidden gathering "Don't come here" "Don't look there" This is where it all starts to get good It's greedy Warped and twisted But hold me tight It's so hard to get it right, this losing game Seems like working together is the only way

to me, this is Kaf inviting the audience to dance with her amidst the chaos that she and all of us are suffocating in. the "unnatural and forbidden gathering" part is referring to how her and all of us are outcasts of society, how us trying to dance and experience joy while suffocating is looked at strangely. but the only way to survive in "this losing game" (of adult life) is to Work Together! be together!! dance together!!

that idea of being together in spite of suffering is the core message of the entire song, which is even brought out by its title, Gestalt. Gestaltism is essentially the idea that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, that the whole is worth more than the individual components. both the title and the lyrics of the song emphasize togetherness and dancing as a whole.

this is already a much more optimistic take on those themes of Adulthood Hard and Life Is Pain, portrayed in a much peppier way than Kaf is generally used to. it's familiar, it feels like Kaf, but there's a new spin on it now! it really feels like Kaf is debuting her new era with explosive energy. it's very much "i lived bitch" to me - she's an adult now like she always dreaded being but despite it all she's dancing within the chaos and you should join her for that in this new era!!

but it actually goes deeper than that, because Kaf's MVs have always been made thoughtfully and usually pertain to the meaning of the song, and this one is no different. the animation also ties back into this transition and meaning.

^ these screencaps are from Gestalt (2024) and Just Forget About It (2019) respectively. both music videos were directed by Kawasaki Kenji, who worked on most of Kaf's older music videos and was the person who defined her visual style for a good portion of her career. older Kaf MVs almost always had some element of Kaf existing in real life environments, like some sort of alien girl wandering the streets of Tokyo. she was often put into very mundane locations with a good amount of wide shots, creating this ethereal feeling.

well, Kenji implements those themes into Gestalt for sure... a lot of the MV feels like an older Kaf MV. but there's a couple MAJOR differences...

instead of just idling around and looking wistful like in her older videos, she is DANCING!! and the usual typography in her videos is extremely stylized and much more colorful than usual, plus the environments are decorated with a ton of colorful and overlapping shapes breaking up the relatively mundane and even melancholic looking environment (for the record, "gestalt" is also a type of visual design involving closed shapes, so the typography and shape language here also ties into the title of the song lol).

essentially what they've done here is draw back on the Kaf everyone knows and loves but gone hey, now it's colorful and explosive and high energy! this is new, too!! which is exactly what the song is trying to do as well! familiar themes but portrayed in a completely new light

and as one last aside, it is also worth mentioning real quick that Kaf's current outfit for the year or so, Raichou, was debuted at her concert in January where this song was also debuted, and while not specific to Gestalt, her character designer PALOW really made sure to change how Kaf looks a lot more than usual this time for her new era. Kaf has a new main look every year or so and those outfits can define entire eras for her, and usually they're darker and heavier on the blue, but Raichou is nearly devoid of any blue and has a very different feel. they even changed her hair to be cut flat, something she hasn't done before.

anyways TLDR; my takeaway from Gestalt is i'm dancing with Kaf in this new era amidst the world being on fire so hard. joy and whimsy in the face of suffering bitch‼️get ready because Kaf is going to keep making banger music in new ways the likes of which we have never seen!!! this song is literally a perfect transitional song drawing on Kaf of old and bringing her into the new. absolutely genius. Piedpiper has done it again. thank you Jazzin'park for your service

Proof Postitve 1

WARNINGS: smut minors dni!! alcohol consumption, smoking

series masterlist

There was a sense of pride running through your veins. Seeing the band that you’d known and supported for years sweep the BRIT awards, winning all of their nominated categories. You’d been working as office support at Dirty Hit since their first album was released, you’d been with them through just about everything, every gig you helped organise, all the singles you did the logistics on, and you’d become a good friend of all of them.

There was one, though, a certain bassist that you were closest to. You and Ross had always had a sort of special relationship. There was rarely a conversation between the two of you that didn’t involve at least a base level of simple flirting; you asking him if all the things they say about bassist are true, him teasing by saying you should find out for yourself. It’d never gone all that far though, there was a boundary there that neither of you were willing to cross. And you thought that’s just how it’d be forever.

The pub Dirty Hit had rented out for the afterparty spared no expense, you made sure of that. Music was pumping, there were dozens of fluorescents illuminating the space, and the drinks were flowing–very much.

Of course, the band of the hour was everyone’s attention–you’d gotten in a quick ‘congratulations’ before they were totally smothered by the countless guests who wanted to do the same thing. Even being just on the outside of it all, it was suffocating to watch the four of them bounce around the room, never being left alone. 

You needed some air, so slinking towards the front door to take a break outside the front of the booming club–as best you could with the amount of shots you’d taken. It was still cold–not out of the ordinary for London in late February–and you wish you brought your coat with you. You breathed in and out shakily, hoping your fingers wouldn’t go numb as you scrolled through various social medias, seeing the fans’ reactions was always your favourite part of any endeavour the guys did. You were only a little acquainted with the fans, you’d mostly stayed behind the curtain, only the really deep fans knew of your existence, the ones that investigated all your socials when they put the dots together and discovered almost everyone involved with the band followed you, and you’d posted photos with them a couple times over the years. The general opinion of you was neutral, and you liked it that way, you didn’t have to worry.

In your peripheral, you saw a figure stand next to you, a veil of cigarette smoke around them. You turned your head as was met with the sight of your favourite bassist. He looked exceptionally dashing tonight with his suit and bow tie–you told him he looked like a sexy Fred Astaire, which he blushed and laughed at.

You gave him a nod to say hello, he returned it and took another drag.

“You alright? Saw you come out, thought you were leaving…” He said.

“Leave without saying goodbye? To you of all people?” You joked.

“I’d hope not, thought I’d trained you better than that!” He quipped. 

He slipped off his blazer and put it around your shoulders. You were immediately engulfed in the scent of his cologne, your goosebumps returned back into your skin and you felt more at ease than you have all night.

“I…I just…” You started. Ross looked over at you, big eyes and a smile–god, he was handsome. “I know it doesn’t mean much coming from me, but I’m really proud of you…Getting to where you are now, I’m so honoured that I’ve gotten to see it.”

“Thanks.” He gave you a sincere smile. “And it does mean a lot coming from you, you’re one of the only people around us that actually tells us the truth.”

You jokingly flipped your hair and laughed. “Well, I try…”

A gust of wind blew through the street, chilling you to the bone. Ross noticed your slight shivering, and he put an arm around you, trying to give you as much warmth as possible, even with his jacket on, the cold was coming through. Ross chuckled at the sound of your teeth chattering. Something with the chill made you giggly, with the sudden inability to speak, the best you could do was laugh with him. 

Suddenly he had a hand on your chin, lightly directing you to face him. He slightly raised his eyebrows, asking your permission. Instead of answering, you just went for it.

You gently placed a kiss against his lips, and before you could pull away too far, his hand that was still on your jaw pulled you back in, this time with much more ferocity.

One of your favourite movies of all time was The Princess Diaries, though one part that always confused you was the legendary ‘foot pop’, but now, with Ross’ mouth on yours, you finally understood.

Within minutes, he had you pushed up against the wall of the club, his tongue exploring your mouth, while his hands did the same elsewhere. It felt like all the years you’d spent in a game of oscillating cat and mouse had finally led up to this night, the time was now.

You lightened the kiss, then pulled away. “How about I go and get my coat and you order an Uber?”

“Your place or mine?” He asked between kisses to your neck.

“Dealer’s choice.” 

You patted his chest a couple times before he let go of you and you handed him his blazer, and you made your way back inside. It was getting quite late, everyone inside had begun to spiral into one big drunken mess. You quickly grabbed your coat and purse from the small corner you’d hid them in.

You were almost out the door, before you heard a yell of your name.

“Don’t tell me you’re leaving already!” Matty yelled, stringing an arm around your shoulder, mostly to keep himself stable.

“I am, unfortunately some of us have to work tomorrow, Healy!”

He blew a raspberry at your comment before kissing your cheek and bidding you goodbye. You all but ran out the entrance. You were met with the sight of Ross standing on the curb with the door of an unusually sleek looking Uber. You didn’t notice before, but your lipstick was smeared halfway across his face, the sight only made you more endeared.

“Shall we?” He asked, opening the door more to let you climb in.

After a polite introduction to the driver and a confirmation on the address–Ross’ place, which you preferred, you hadn’t quite tidied in a while so your flat wasn’t exactly in the right state for guests–you were off. His hand was placed firmly on your thigh, you swear you could feel electricity through his fingertips. You shuffled closer to him, and again, and again. By the end of the trip, you were practically on his lap and his hand only slid further and further up. You were worked up, to say the least.

He couldn’t open his front door fast enough, scrambling for the keys from his pocket as best he could while he was spending most of his concentration on keeping himself stood upright.

As soon as his door was open, it was shut just as fast, this time with you being held up against the inside of it. You barely had time to panic about it before he was grabbing the backs of your thighs and lifting you so you were face-to-face. You kissed a line from the top of his collar to the bottom of his ear. 

“So do you want me on my knees or you?” You whispered, lightly nipping at his earlobe.

You heard him sigh in response and his grip on your thighs only got tighter. 

“First I think you should have a little less clothes on?” He chuckled.

He dropped you back to your feet and in a flurry of clothes and stumbling between heated kisses, you were soon on his bed, in your underwear–thank God you had the gut instinct to wear your sexy underwear, all matching, black and lacey.

You lounged on Ross’ bed, watching as he hastily took off his shirt and trousers. You could see he was hard through his boxers. The sight of him made you salivate.

Without another thought, his mouth was back on yours and you were once again lost in his touch.

Wet, sloppy kisses were trailed down your neck, and chest, and stomach, and then peppered along the waistband of your underwear. He looked up to your face, cheeky grin on his.

“You don’t have to…” You trailed off. You’d heard the stories of women having amazing, mind-blowing orgasms when a guy would go down on them, but that hadn’t really been the case for you. More often than not, he would just get lacklustre in the middle and you’d get bored and fake it so he could be satisfied. You knew tonight was a special situation, you wanted Ross to just be as happy as possible.

“I already won tonight…” He toyed with your waistband, running the soft lace over his calloused fingertips. “Wanna make you feel like a winner too.”

You matched his smile and nodded. And he just dove right in.

He placed a light kiss to your clit over your underwear, and your body was immediately engulfed in warmth. Before long, he pulled your panties off, down your legs and discarded to some corner of his bedroom. He licked a long, wide strip up your pussy, collecting your arousal in a pool on his tongue. A wave of euphoria hit you as he sucked on your clit. Your hands immediately went to his hair, messing up his hair (that you know took close to an hour to perfect, you were there for the entire process).

You got closer and closer to the edge while he continued a cycle of suckling and licking at your clit, what you did not expect was for him to add 2 fingers into the mix. You let out a choked moan as his fingers got to work, slowly pumping in and out, in and out. You heard a small chuckle from him in reaction. Your muscles felt like they were on fire, you were so close.

“Ross…pl-please…” You got out between whines. “A-almost.”

His tongue was quickly replaced by his thumb and his face was soon by your ear. “Cum, baby…” He whispered.

At that, you did–like your body was somehow set up to answer any request from Ross, not that you were complaining. For at least a couple minutes–it could have been longer, you really had no way of telling–you were practically paralysed, just riding out the high of the orgasm Ross gave you, spurred on by a slew of “good girl”s in your ear.

Once you’d caught your breath and come back down to Earth–all under the watchful eye of Ross laying at your side–you could finally think about what just happened. One of your closest friends–a coworker–just went down on you and gave you one of the strongest orgasms of your life. There was no going back now.

You quickly moved to straddle Ross, and kissed him–taking him by surprise. You could feel his erection against your lower abdomen as you deepened the kiss. Without separating, you undid the clasp of your bra behind your back and took it off, throwing it to the side somewhere–to join the rest of your discarded clothes on the lush, carpeted floor. One of Ross’ hands instantly went to your breast, gently cupping it before circling your nipple. You couldn’t help but let out a small moan that was almost entirely muffled by his mouth on yours.

One of your hands left the side of his neck, trailing over his chest. You had to admit, you always loved his physique, big and strong but not like he tries too hard–not overly toned. Like a bear. Your fingers found his waistband and you could feel a slight grin in his kiss.

“You want this?” You asked, tentatively. You just wanted to make sure.

“Darling, I’ve never wanted something more,” he answered between chaste kisses to your jawline. “Been fantasising about this for…forever.”

That answer was all you needed for a go-ahead. Your hand dipped below his waistband. He was pretty much already completely hard, just a few pumps from you and you knew he was ready.

You both shuffled to get more comfortable, Ross shimmied out of his boxers with you still in his lap. He leaned over to his nightstand, opening the top draw and retrieved a metallic plastic square. Ross was nothing if not prepared. He slipped the condom on and you positioned yourself above him. In a smooth motion, his cock slid inside you. 

You couldn’t lie, he was bigger than you were expecting. More than pain, it just felt like an immense pressure on your pelvic floor. Ross patiently waited as you adjusted to him, listening to your deep breaths for only around half a minute. Once the pressure subsided, you were practically itching to actually fuck him properly.

You started slow, short movements; up and down, up and down, giving your leg muscles a small warm up before the workout of a lifetime. As you started, Ross closed his eyes, sighing in ecstasy. You began to pick up the pace a little, watching as Ross’ face contorted with pleasure.

Within minutes you felt like you were going full-hilt, but it just wasn’t enough. You were whining and whimpering, just on the edge but not getting any closer. Ross got the hint, thrusting up into you and meeting you in the middle of your bounces, this was it.

Ross began to circle your clot with his thumb and it pushed you into your second orgasm of the evening. You were sure his neighbours would complain with how loud you were moaning his name. Ross followed not long after in a slue of “fuck”s and gutteral moans.

You gently rolled off of him, feeling the soft, cotton bedsheets below you, stars clouding your vision. Ross discarded the condom before returning back to you. You readjusted to curl into his side, his skin was cold but covered in a thin layer of sweat–much like yours.

“So…” You started.

He chuckled. “Yeah…”

“Thanks…for that…” You said.

“Are you going home now?” He asked, anxiety in his voice.

“Do you want me to?”

“No! No…stay, please.”

And so you did. You raided Ross’ cupboards with him, looking for any snacks to replenish your spent energy. And you slept soundly cuddled into him–in one of his favourite graphic tees he let you borrow, no less.

You don’t think you’ve ever had a more peaceful sleep in your life.

Can you do a thing for Li Ling getting medical attention from reader because reader doesn't scold him for getting injured?

for sure anon (also idk what this trope is but it’s chefs kiss)

nav.

You hear the flap of the small makeshift tent being lifted, while you’re in the midst of reading various emails and reminders. Instead of looking up from the dimmed screen, you hum in acknowledgement as you hear footsteps get closer.

A hand is raised in a lazy wave, before your lips part and you greet the familiar visitor, “Long time no see.”

You get a mix of a snort and a grunt in return, in turn, your nose crinkles in amusement as you finally deign to look at him. No one other than Li Ling stands before you. The arms of his divine power folded behind him while his actual arms are folded across his bare chest, a jacket slung loosely over his shoulders that you’re surprised it hasn’t fallen off yet.

“One would think even with the cold, you’d wear a proper coat,” You murmur, shutting the laptop before you and placing it back in the case as you stand.

“Bah, ‘s nothing but a cool breeze,” He says flippantly. Already, he seats himself on one of the spare cots, leave it to him to walk around like he owned the place no matter where the Esper Union assigned him to.

“For you maybe,” You reply, giving him a once over, only to not really find any sort of injuries at all, “What brings you to the medical tent?” You raise an eyebrow, as he sighs melodramatically, laying back onto the cot with a grunt.

“I’m injured,” He says plainly.

You snort. Before it becomes full on laughter, as you see him frown in your direction.

“Be serious.”

“I am!”

Your unconvinced look makes him crinkle his nose. Before he raises a non-divinely powered arm up in the air, it takes you squinting to actually see what he’s trying to show you.

“Please tell me you’re joking,” You say dryly, looking at the tiniest of scratches on his arm.

“Nuh uh!”

You still stare, unimpressed.

To which he at least has some sense to deflate a little, but Li Ling was still laying in the bed after all.

“You don’t want to debrief with Raven, do you?”

“They’re just so boring!” He complains, like he isn’t a higher ranked member of the union and probably even higher ranked than you if he thought about it for longer than a moment.

“Please, doc?” He whines… whines!

You sigh with what sounds like another laugh, before you take his arm, a gloved hand inspecting the “wound.” Because even if you didn’t admit it, you indulged him at times too.

“Alright, ten minutes. But if Raven comes here looking for you, it’s not my problem.”

He pumps his fist into the air, with a silent cheer.

“I knew you were my favorite.”

“Or the only one who plays along with you getting out of paperwork.”

When Raven finds him, you wave off a complaining Li Ling as he’s all but dragged away.

A brief tale of adventures in repair and stupid coincidences

So last weekend our dishwasher stopped cleaning stuff well, especially stuff on the top rack. It was also making a really obnoxious groaning/buzzing noise when run. We were contemplating the miserable cost of having to replace the whole thing, but we've also taken it apart and put it back together before, so why not at least give it a try.

And I won't deny that there's a deep satisfaction to feeling handy.

So we dismantle it. As I said, done before, but this time I'm really pulling the thing's guts out, the full sump motor assembly. Side note: the bits of stuff stuck in the drain pipe were beyond nasty. There was a lot of other gross stuff crammed into various recesses and encrusting screens, but that was the stuff that really smelled, I assume it was bits of rancid fat.

Well, the housings are fine, the impeller's fine, the motor shaft spins freely, without noise, and there's no play in it. I'd read once that buzzing from a motor could be a capacitor problem, so we take the fat 23.5μF thing off, and take it to an appliance repair shop, they obviously have a tester and tell us it's just fine. (Note to self, get a multi-meter that isn't from the bargain bin.)

Side note 2, small vicissitudes of life: taking the washing machine out meant disconnecting the hot water supply and the drain hose, which go to the hot water line and drain for the sink. A: turns out, if we take out the T-junction for the hot water line, the line to the faucet is no longer long enough. B: we happened to have a cap for the T-junction to the drain. But putting the mess back together we broke one of the nuts, and it leaked copiously. Cue a day of not being able to use the kitchen sink before we could make it to the hardware store for a replacement drain nut and a cap for the hot water t-junction. (We also got a flexible supply line for the dishwasher, because getting around the rigid copper line was the most frustrating part of working on the thing.)

So we're left with the decision making math. A new sump motor assembly is, shockingly, "only" 160$. (Also incredible is that they still make and sell this same assembly from our 20 year old dishwasher. I guess in some industries if it ain't broke they don't fix it.) A new dishwasher of comparable performance is around 600$. Obviously if the new assembly works, that's a huge savings. If it doesn't though, it's a fair amount of money almost literally down the drain.

We decide to reassemble the dishwasher and see if we've cleaned something or jogged something back into place and it will work better now. I'm halfway done and notice an extra part, a flat washer. In a device that mixes water and electricity, washers are exactly the sort of thing I wanna make sure are right. Nothing else jumped out at me so I hit up the web to figure out where it goes (shout out to Parts Select for hosting diagrams and copious pictures!). As I do so, something catches my eye.

(Can you spot the difference?)

The mangler (aka chopper assembly) covers the intake from the sump (where dirty water and food particles accumulate) to the main spray pump. Thus, if the mangler is no longer mangling, that screen is going to be clogged (and it was, with a mat of weird fibrous stuff). And if the intake is clogged, the pump is going to have a much harder job. I can only imagine I threw out the broken blades with the little pile of gunk and hard bits that had accumulated there under the plastic shield (there looked to be bits of pasta and beans in there).

A new mangler is 14$ and two day shipping. And I might've spent 160$ on a new sump+motor assembly (which includes a mangler) if I hadn't noticed. And while it's obvious and glaring now, I can't say for sure I would've spotted it if I hadn't gone looking for a spare washer's home. (Which was the spray arm assembly, by the way.)

I'll update this if it doesn't work, but otherwise, you must imagine cthulhubert happy (with their clean dishes).

[sw33t-oubliette]

also are you any schoolchild cuz im curious abt the bifrost incident

OKAYSO

the bifrost incident is one of the mechanisms' albums [and the one that they re-tell during death to the mechanisms] [also nastya threw herself into space right before it], characters are loki [loses her mind and dies with her wife, saving the train temporarily], sigyn [loki's wife, thought she died earlier and has a gayass reunion with her, focused on ending the shit system that asgard made (it worked! they died)], thor [pissed off and in jail during the whole album, kills odin], odin [built the train, gets Bifrost'd and fucking dies], and lyfrassir edda [watches all the footage and shit go down after everyone died] .

edda was sent to use the train's black box [basically like a surveillence camera] to find out who caused the bifrost incident and what happened . before the incident , odin gave a speech at the launch about it being her "pet science project", in edda's words: "clearly something of a personal obsession". When the train launches, theres like 70 billion signs that shits gonna go off the rails [pun intended], the odometer stops working, people Dont Want To Be On The Damn Train, odin spends all her time staring out of a glass wall in her cabin room thing. then edda spots loki, who was apparently executed for treason , odin spared her to save her knowledge of the train , but her head was messed up by whatever she did instead . thor finds out loki's alive , seems mad about it, we cant tell if hes mad about loki still being alive [she accidentally killed his best friend] or about what odin did to her. thor and odin get into an argument , odin thinks loki's understanding of the train's tracks was too valuable to lose . thor threatens her and her train [FUCK YOU AND FUCK YOUR TRAIN! YOULL BE SORRY YOU ALL WILL !!!], odin locks him in his own cabin the rest of the trip . as hes dragged away, he shatters the lock on loki's cabin . edda's almost gonna write up thor as the cause of the incident, when the video cuts out . sigyn finds loki in her cabin, loki's fuckin SCARED and CONFUSED she doesnt remember shit , sigyn figures out what odin did to her , now 2 people hate odin !!. edda finds that the video cuts out a lot more significantly and fequently hm im sure that means nothing .

edda goes to some prisoners for help , who are THE FUCKIN MECHANISMS THEMSELVES they got arrested for 60 years lmao . ivy finds the corrupted part of the box and fixes it , problem solved :] .

thor and sigyn stand in the engine room , instead of an engine , theres a silver alter with a man on it , feeding his blood into the glyphs and gears of the train . thor randomly smashes buttons and pulls levers , sigyn rushes to pull the pumps out of kvasir [the dude] , and they suddenly stop, something bad has happened .

A CHANT IS HEARD, YOG-SOTHOTH WHO IS BIFROST WARPS AND TEARS REALITY AROUND THEM , ALL THE DOORS ARE OPEN NOW . KVASIR BLEEDS OUT , THOR WALKS AWAY . THE TRAIN AND REALITY ARE TORN APART . VARIOUS TRAIN RIDERS ARE DESTROYED UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF YOG-SOTHOTH, HEIMDALL IS RIPPED APART , FREY IS FLAYED , FREYA FUSES TO THE TRAIN , GARM AND TYR FIGHT AND MERGE INTO A SINGLE CORPSE . LOKI AND ODIN ARE IN ODINS CABIN , ODIN REVEALS ALL ALONG HER TRAIN AND EVERYTHING WITH IT HAS BEEN IN SERVICE OF YOG-SOTHOTH, LOKI FINDS HER MIND REPAIRED AND IS DISGUSTED BY ODIN. LOKI RECALLS HER HORROR OF THE TRAIN AND WHY SHE TRIED TO STOP IT MULTIPLE TIMES . ANY PROTECTION TO THE TRAIN AND ITS PASSENGERS IS GONE NOW THAT THE TRAIN HAS DERAILED . AS THEY ARGUE , A THIRD VOICE HAS CHIMED IN , CHANTING PRAISE TO AZATHOTH AND WARNINGS OF THE COMING MADNESS.

...

Loki walks away and finds sigyn, shes unharmed because shes been touched by an outer god . thor is walking the other way to find odin, he defends himself with an engineers hammer . the two cross paths in an empty carriage , they talk for a little while and wish eachother good deaths. Thor reaches odin's cabin , shes physically warped into a long undulating form with a single, vast eye . she brags about releasing the outer gods, and tells thor that killing her wont save his world . thor doesnt care ["killing me will not save your world!" "I dont care."] physically unable to win a one on one fight, he goes for the glass wall , he and odin both die .

loki reaches the engine room and finds sigyn . they hug and cry . loki tells sigyn they cant stop the outer gids , but they can delay their arrival . loki lays on the silver alter , sigyn pushes one of the tubes into her heart and lets a steady drip of blood into the gears , keeping the train on track until her heart runs out of blood . but until then , they are together.

Back in the present , edda realizes . the arrival of the trains wreckage means the outer gods will soon follow . the mechanisms themselves have escaped the prison , and edda [very drunk] announces they're fleeing the planetary system, and recommends everyone do the same . BURST OF STATIC, radio messages are heard across the yggdrasil [aforementioned planetary system] system, the inhabitants of it increasing distress as reality breaks down.

-----

SO ! YEAH THATS THE BIFROST INCIDENT ! I FUCKINGG LOVE THIS ALBUM ! SORRY I RESPONED TO THIS SO LATE I WAS EEPING AND IT TOOK A DAMN WHILE TO TYPE ALL THAT ON PHONE . yes loki and sigyn are canon no i will never shut up about them YES YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO THE ALBUM ON ITS OWN WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE IT

[graysquirrel7]

I could tell this would end badly, no matter what happened. I didn't need the smell of stale sweat from other victims that had soaked into the trunk lining to tell me that. And urine.

My eyes did not care that it was dark, I could see everything just fine. The trunk was mostly empty. There was a small gas can clipped into one side and a scissor jack on the other. I could smell the lingering mix of gasoline, oil, and road tar from both.

The man who had thrown me in this car's trunk had ill intent and a bodycount. It reminded me of the things my parents always lectured me about. The things that they had escaped from.

I couldn't help it, reading the thoughts and desires of the man. The powers I'm supposed to maintain control of, however, I could help.

At least, that's what my parents always said.

Truth is, I was scared. I could hear the engine accelerating, the wheels crunching on loose debris on concrete and asphalt surfaces. I could even hear my kidnapper cursing as he swerved around obstacles.

Yeah, probably nowhere near as scared as my kidnapper, but I was scared. And a kid.

I've always been fascinated with minute details. The tiniest of things that made a big deal in the long run. I had never tried to influence them before now.

Never had reason to disobey my parents on tapping into the instinctive, destructive powers our kind were known for.

There were books in the local library that I had been fascinated with. They showed what they called exploded diagrams of various mechanical objects. Showing every separate piece that formed the whole, the fasteners that joined everything together, and even labelled it all so that someone who was taking apart something like a pump or a motor would be able to put it all together.

I was not worried about that part.

I started with the handcuffs.

Well, I meant to start there. I was scared. I'm not sure what happened.

The sounds of everything stopped. The engine, the squeaking suspension, the tires on the road, even the cursing of the driver.

I felt light, like I was made of nothing but ephemeral energy.

The handcuffs had exploded into all of their distinct parts, the toothy curved locking bar--single strand, one of those books had called it--the links, the rivets, everything had been separated. Now they all floated in the air around me.

It wasn't just the handcuffs, though. I could see the bolts, nuts, pins, baseplate, and steel arms that had once been a functional scissor jack. Also floating in the air.

And the tail lights. Split out into their individual parts, no complex assembly intact.

The rest of the car was slowly peeling apart, rivets, screws, nuts and bolts, everything coming apart in a slow dance of floating metal and plastic.

I consider it a small mercy that my understanding of constructed things was not enough to deconstruct a man. So we floated together, trapped between ticks of a clock while his car simply became a cloud of floating parts.

There were two other things I could feel in that moment between moments.

One was my parents shedding their masquerade, miles away from me, as they rushed towards me. This was something new to me. I had never been able to sense them like this before.

The second was something far larger, far more distant, turning its eyes slowly, inevitably in this direction.

That is when I started to understand the difference between being a scared kid and genuine fear.

Then I was no longer a scared kid.

The cloud of parts remembered that it still answered to physics as time returned to normal, and scattered down the road, bouncing and skidding off the momentum that it had had only a blink beforehand.

I'll spare you the details about the kidnapper. Suffice to say, he will claim no more victims. Ever.

I was, however, still far too scared to actually return to my usual body. That was the genuine fear. Everything in my soul pulled at the shadows around me, trying to cloak me from those terrible, ancient eyes.

I felt my parents arrive, and almost immediately my mother was humming the song she used to use to lull me to sleep when I was smaller.

The song filled the space between my breaths and tears, pushing the fear out enough to where I could let go of those shadows. I could feel myself returning to physical form. The less ephemeral I was, the more distant those eyes felt.

Until finally, I was sitting in the road, cheeks wet with tears. I could no longer feel the eyes beyond the world. I was simply a scared kid again.

"You alright, kiddo?" My father ruffled my hair affectionately and sat down next to me. "If you don't mind being carried, I think it's time we got you home."

I nodded, my throat still too tight to form words. Home sounded good.

You were born into a family of demons who escaped hell to live a normal life under humans. Your parents told you never to use your demonic powers. That is until you’re kidnapped by a serial killer of your hometown who you decide to teach a lesson.

Due to the varying quality of water supply from municipal sources, borewells, and tankers, impurities such as heavy metals, bacteria, and dissolved solids often make water unfit for direct consumption.

Regular RO water purifier service in South Delhi ensures:

Safe Drinking Water: Servicing eliminates any residual contaminants, providing clean and safe water.

Enhanced Lifespan of the Purifier: Timely maintenance prevents major breakdowns and extends the appliance’s life.

Cost Efficiency: Prevents expensive repairs by addressing minor issues before they escalate.

Better Taste and Odor Removal: Ensures that water remains fresh and free from unpleasant taste and smell.

Common Issues with RO Water Purifiers

Even with the best water purifiers, certain issues may arise over time. Some of the most common problems that require RO water purifier service in South Delhi include:

Low Water Flow: This is often caused by clogged filters or membranes that need replacement.

Unusual Taste or Odor: Accumulated impurities in filters may affect water quality.

Leakage: Loose fittings or damaged components can lead to water leaks.

Noisy Operation: Faulty pumps or trapped air in the system can cause excessive noise.

Auto Shut-Off Malfunction: When the auto shut-off feature stops working, it may lead to unnecessary water wastage.

Choosing the Best RO Water Purifier Service in South Delhi

Finding a reliable RO water purifier service in South Delhi is crucial to maintaining your appliance’s efficiency. Here are some factors to consider when selecting a service provider:

1. Experience and Expertise

Choose a service provider with a proven track record in servicing various brands of RO purifiers. Technicians should be well-trained to handle different models and configurations.

2. Customer Reviews and Ratings

Check customer feedback on platforms like Google, Justdial, and social media. A high rating and positive reviews indicate trustworthy service.

3. Genuine Spare Parts

Ensure the service provider uses authentic and branded spare parts to maintain the purifier’s performance and avoid frequent breakdowns.

4. Comprehensive Service Packages

Opt for companies that offer AMC (Annual Maintenance Contracts), which cover regular check-ups, filter replacements, and emergency repairs at an economical price.

5. Response Time and Availability

Choose a provider that offers quick response times and doorstep service, especially in urgent repair situations.

What Factors Should Be Considered When Selecting a Hydraulic Gear Pump?

Hydraulic gear pumps play a crucial role in various industrial and mobile equipment applications. They are essential for generating the hydraulic energy required to power systems such as material handling equipment, agricultural machinery, and construction tools. Choosing the right hydraulic gear pump is critical to ensuring optimal performance, efficiency, and longevity. Below are the key factors to consider when selecting a hydraulic gear pump.

1. Flow Rate and Pressure Requirements

The flow rate (measured in liters per minute or gallons per minute) and pressure (measured in bar or PSI) are two primary factors that dictate the pump's capacity.

Flow Rate: Determine the amount of hydraulic fluid required to operate the system efficiently. This depends on the system’s overall design and the speed of the equipment.

Pressure: The pump must generate enough pressure to power the hydraulic components without overloading. Ensure the pump’s maximum pressure rating meets or exceeds the system’s requirements.

2. Pump Type and Configuration

Hydraulic gear pumps are generally categorized into external and internal gear pumps.

External Gear Pumps: These are simpler in design, highly reliable, and suitable for high-speed applications.

Internal Gear Pumps: These pumps are quieter and more efficient, making them ideal for applications where noise reduction is essential. Choose the configuration that aligns with your system's operational needs.

3. Efficiency

The efficiency of a hydraulic gear pump affects energy consumption and operational costs.

Volumetric Efficiency: This indicates how effectively the pump delivers the required flow rate without internal leakage.

Mechanical Efficiency: Consider how much power is lost due to friction and other mechanical factors. Opt for a pump designed with minimal leakage and high mechanical efficiency to reduce energy waste.

4. Material and Durability

The materials used in constructing the pump should withstand the operating conditions, including temperature, pressure, and fluid type. Common materials include cast iron, aluminum, and steel.

Temperature Resistance: Ensure the pump material can handle temperature variations in your application.

Corrosion Resistance: For systems using water-based fluids or exposed to harsh environments, corrosion-resistant materials are essential.

5. Compatibility with Hydraulic Fluid

The hydraulic fluid used in your system must be compatible with the pump’s seals, gaskets, and internal components. Consider:

Viscosity Range: Ensure the pump operates efficiently with the fluid’s viscosity.

Additives: Fluids with specific additives may require specialized seals to prevent degradation.

6. Mounting Options and Dimensions

The pump must fit seamlessly into the existing system design. Consider:

Mounting Type: Ensure compatibility with the mounting style of your equipment (e.g., flange, foot, or face-mounted).

Size: The pump’s dimensions should align with the space available in your setup.

7. Noise Levels

In environments where noise pollution is a concern, opt for gear pumps designed with noise-reduction features, such as precision gears or internal damping.

8. Maintenance and Serviceability

Choose a pump with a straightforward design for ease of maintenance. Availability of spare parts and manufacturer support is also crucial for long-term reliability.

9. Cost and Value for Money

While cost is an important consideration, prioritize quality and performance. A higher upfront investment in a durable and efficient pump can save significant costs in the long run.

Conclusion

Selecting the right hydraulic gear pump involves a comprehensive understanding of your system’s requirements and operating conditions. By considering factors like flow rate, pressure, material, efficiency, and compatibility, you can ensure optimal performance, reduced downtime, and long-lasting operation. Collaborating with a reliable hydraulic gear pump manufacturer can further help in making an informed decision tailored to your specific needs.
