Post Round 2 [Pt. 2] - Tov’s Log
————————————————————
A moment of silence passed.
Then another.
Elias’s arms were still tense.
Finally, he sighed.
It was different sounding than Prem’s sigh. Elias sighed like he knew this confrontation was inevitable.
“Sounds like a fine name to me.” He said. His tone gave nothing else away.
The elevator stopped its descent and the doors slid open.
Tov assumed Elias would turn to the right towards the main clinic area, but instead he went to the left.
She furrowed her brow, hesitating, but continued to follow behind him.
As if he’d sensed her confusion, Elias spoke up again, “We’re going to the medical technician room. We have proper equipment to recalibrate your band there.”
Tov felt like he was speaking to more than just her.
Probably so.
She wouldn’t doubt that every inch of the dorm was covered with hidden cameras and audio recorders.
There was really no such thing as privacy in Alien Stage.
Tov took two steps for each of Elias’s long and sure strides.
He walked to a rhythm.
One. Two. One. Two. One. Two.
Her pace was a little faster.
One. Two. Three. One. Two. Three.
Something about counting steps like this felt nostalgic to her.
They came to a stop in front of a set of white doors. Elias removed one of his gloves to place his thumb on the scanner next to them.
His skin was dark like hers. A large scar stretched across the back of his hand.
The doors swung open automatically.
Inside was a sterile white room filled with medical equipment and various machines Tov could recall seeing in the hospitals she frequented; all very expensive and equally as delicate.
Elias gestured for her to enter first and manually pulled the doors shut until a heavy lock clicked in place.
There were a few medical beds lined up in a row against the left wall. Tov sat on the edge of the nearest bed.
“We’ll be able to talk freely in here,” he said, forgoing a chair to lean against the counters across from her. “All of the equipment frequencies interfere with the audio listening devices used throughout the complex.”
Tov briefly glanced around the corners of the room, “What about cameras?”
“There’s a lot of proprietary medical technology down here. Cameras are forbidden in case of a breach.”
Huh. Good to know.
Elias tugged off his helmet, revealing black, tightly coiled hair cut close to the scalp. His jawline was sharp, but his eyes were sharper; ink black and stone cold.
He crossed his arms, meeting her gaze head on. “So,” he started. “Prem?”
Tov nodded once, “Prem.”
He sighed again and pinched the bridge of his nose.
Tov imagined that it was close to how she looked whenever she found out Nyx or Dian did something stupid, usually in the other’s company.
Elias muttered something under his breath before clearing his throat and addressing her, “Okay then. How much did he tell you?”
“He said you’re the one who wrote the notes and that you told him not to tell me. Then he gave me your name, the shift you work, and the code word.”
“Great, so, basically everything I told him.” Elias huffed. “Damn it, Prem.”
Probably should’ve worked alone.
Tov didn’t say that aloud.
“I’m sure you have a lot of questions. I’ll answer as much as I can before we need to go back upstairs to avoid suspicion.”
The openness was… odd.
She wasn’t expecting Elias to be so forthcoming. She thought she’d have to pry information out of him like she had to with Prem.
But this time, she didn’t have any leverage. It was for the best that she didn’t run into any resistance.
“You’re the original author of the notes?” She asked.
Elias nodded once, “I am.”
“Did every contestant get a note?”
“No. Only you.”
Tov frowned, “Why?”
“Because the information was only relevant to you.”
On its face, the answer made sense. Tov was close to Solei, Aurien, and Nyx. Of course she’d want to know they were alive and safe.
But Lang was also close to Nyx. Why was the information about him given to her and not Lang?
There had to be another reason.
“Why did you chose me specifically?” She asked.
Elias hesitated. Tov wanted to seize the moment by the throat.
“I— did it as a favor.” He said stiltedly.
She wanted to groan long and suffering in that way Tallis always hated to hear.
You’ve got to be kidding me…
“So you’re another middleman.” It was a statement, not a question.
“No, I’m the primary source.” He countered. “I’m the one who took the risk of gathering the information and writing the notes.”
“And you risked your position just to fulfill a favor? You don’t even get anything out of it?”
He looked away, rubbing the back of his neck, “Well, no. I do get something out of the agreement.”
Tov leveled him with a look that she could tell he was pointedly ignoring.
“If you’re getting something out of the agreement then it’s not a favor. It’s a transaction.” She said, voice flat.
“I don’t think I could put a price on what I’m getting.” He said.
Tov was getting really tired of everyone being so fucking cryptic all the time.
“Who asked you to write those notes and give them to me?”
“I can’t say.”
Oh fuck no—
Elias cut Tov off before she could even open her mouth to argue.
“—And no, I’m not as easy to crack as Prem. You can’t blackmail me into telling you who they are.” He spoke with such finality it made Tov want to draw blood.
“I made a promise and I plan to keep it.” He said. “A soldier’s word is his bond.”
By the way his set his jaw and narrowed his eyes, she knew he wasn’t going to yield. Normally, Tov wouldn’t either.
But there was still more she could learn from him, even if this was a dead end.
She relented with a sigh, breaking eye contact. “Fine.”
“Good.”
There was no way that ‘good’ wasn’t patronizing. But Tov let it go.
She needed answers about Lark.
“Do you know anything about the investigation into Lark’s poisoning?”
Elias’s expression turned grim.
“Unfortunately, no. But not for a lack of trying.” He sounded as disappointed as Tov felt. “As soon as the preliminary autopsy suggested poisoning, the AREPH swooped in and took over the whole case. They iced everyone out and pissed off some of the higher ranking guards.”
Tov mulled the new information over as she worried her bottom lip between her teeth.
Why would the AREPH get involved in a poisoning case?
There was nothing to suggest Lark’s death was connected to any of the security breaches or escapes.
It was a question that had been bothering her since she was interrogated by those AREPH agents the morning after Round 17.
Now it was gnawing.
“Have they made any official statements?”
Elias scoffed, “That’s not part of their operating procedure.” He said. “If guards lack transparency, then the AREPH is completely opaque by comparison. We know next to nothing about the extent of what they do and how they do it. Even their facility locations are classified.”
“No leaks, I assume?”
He shakes his head, “None that I know of. Medics tend to catch wind of most rumors.”
Tov knew she was coming up on yet another dead end.
“Is there anything else you can tell me about the AREPH?”
Elias thought it over for a moment, furrowing his eyebrows, “Well, there is one thing. But I don’t know if it’s relevant.”
I’ve got nothing to lose.
Tov gestured for him to continue.
“When the security breach during Round 6 happened, I got caught in the chaos with some other guards doing crowd control. We ended up crossing paths with a group of AREPH agents heading in the opposite direction, and there was a human with them.”
She blinked.
Wait.
What?
“A pet-human?” She asked.
“Maybe? I’m not sure.” Elias shook his head, “All I know is that they were wearing an AREPH uniform and badge.”
Tov couldn’t stop thinking of the possibility that the human was one of her classmates.
She tried to think all the way back to Round 6. Who was alive and who was dead?
Azure. Moran. Stasya. Min. Rose was still alive.
It couldn’t have been any of them… right?
“What did they look like?”
“Young, grey hair, black face mask, really fucking tall. You can’t miss them.”
The only person she knew close to that description was Nyx, and he was definitely not helping the AREPH.
Tov hoped he was somewhere resting peacefully, but still very much alive.
“Could the AREPH be recruiting humans now?” She asked.
“They could be, for all we know.” He muttered. “No clue why a human would work for those ghouls, though.”
Tov raised an eyebrow. “People probably say the same about you working as a guard.”
“I didn’t have a choice.” He said.
“Maybe they don’t either.”
Maybe as humans — no matter where they ended up in this system — would never have a choice.
Somewhere off to their right, a tone chimed.
Elias pushed away from the counter, sidestepping her loaded statement.
It was for the best.
“We should probably start heading back now. Any last questions?”
Tov shook her head, “None that can be answered right now.”
“Alright, do you mind if I ask you one then?”
“Sure, why not.”
“How did you get Prem to confess?”
“I faked a medical emergency to lure him into my room.” She said. “Once he was inside, I locked us both in and threatened to report him for writing the notes if he didn’t tell me who actually wrote them.”
Elias stopped halfway through putting his helmet back on.
He blinked.
Once.
Twice.
Then he doubled over laughing.
The joy ringing in his voice was so incongruous with his appearance and demeanor that it caught her completely off guard.
It reminded Tov of her own giddy, uncontrollable laughter after Nyx was rescued.
But she was still confused.
Tov tilted her head at him, “What’s so funny?”
Elias shook his head, waving her off as his laughter subsided, “Nothing. It’s nothing.” He was smiling now.
The stone cold look in his eyes had melted into something soft like putty. “You just reminded me of someone I know.”
“I see.” Tov didn’t know what else to say in the wake of such a genuine expression of emotion from a stranger.
Luckily, Elias kept talking.
“I think you would’ve made a good soldier.” He said. “You’ve got the mind for it.”
Tov thought for a moment, before asking, “If I agree, will you tell me who you’re working with?”
He chuckled again as he fastened his helmet on.
“Look, Tov. If you really want to find out who’s behind all of this, keep going.”
————————————————————
Tov got some answers (yay!), but they only led to more questions (boo!).
All will be revealed in due time. She just has to keep going…
Anyways, new relationship dynamic just dropped: Tov and Dian worsties (besties that have constant beef) 😁
Also, Eddy was the human AREPH agent that Elias saw during Round 6, so Tov sort of knows who they are now.
The next log will be post Round 24. I’m still trying to process Himei’s death and the extent it will impact Tov’s wellbeing (spoiler alert: it’s not good), so that might be a few days? We’ll see.
And then Round 26 is like… right after that. Big oof 🫠
Tallis and Eddy belong to @lookatmysillies.
Nyx and Dian belong to @rockwgooglyeyes.
Lang belongs to @pwippy.

Mattress Border Machine: Top 5 Advanced Systems for Edge Reinforcement in 2025
Mattress Border Machine: Top 5 Advanced Systems for Edge Reinforcement in 2025
What Is a Mattress Border Machine?
youtube
A mattress border machine is specialized equipment used in mattress manufacturing that handles the creation, quilting, and attachment of the vertical side panels (borders) of mattresses. These machines help streamline production by automating what would otherwise be labor-intensive processes.
Core Functions of Mattress Border Machines
The primary purpose of a mattress border machine is to create professionally finished edges for mattresses. These machines can perform several key functions depending on the model. Most border machines can quilt decorative patterns into the border material, adding both aesthetic appeal and structural integrity to the mattress sides.
Some advanced models like the M-4000 and M-4400 are designed for high-speed production, capable of quickly processing large volumes of mattress borders.
Border machines can also measure and cut border sections to precise specifications, ensuring consistency across production runs. This precision is crucial for creating professional-looking mattresses that meet quality standards.
Many modern border machines can also install zippers, which is essential for mattress protectors and mattresses with removable covers. This feature has become increasingly important as demand for accessible, cleanable mattress products grows.
Key Components and Structure
Border machines typically consist of several important components working together. The sewing head is one of the most crucial parts - machines like the DZ-52 feature multi-needle systems designed specifically for wider border sewing applications.
The feeding mechanism moves fabric through the machine at a controlled rate. Some advanced models include auto-feeding systems with edge-alignment technology that ensures borders remain straight and even.
Most border machines have pattern programming capabilities that allow manufacturers to create various decorative stitching patterns. These can range from simple rectangular designs to more complex triangle patterns, as seen in the CC-1A model.
Material detection sensors help prevent jams and ensure proper alignment throughout the sewing process. These sensors are particularly important when working with different fabric thicknesses or when attaching rubber bands in mattress protector production.
How Mattress Border Machines Work
The operation begins with loading the border fabric onto the machine. For roll-to-roll systems from Global Systems Group (GSG), this involves setting up continuous fabric rolls for high-volume production.
The machine then positions the fabric correctly using alignment tools and sensors. This step is crucial because even slight misalignments can result in visible defects in the finished mattress.
Next, the multi-needle sewing head creates decorative stitching patterns across the border material. This not only enhances the appearance but also reinforces the border for durability. Machines like the DZ-52 are specialized for this precise function.
For borders requiring zippers, specialized attachments on machines like the Richpeace Border Zipper Sewing Machine automatically position and attach zipper components. This automation dramatically reduces the time needed compared to manual zipper installation.
Finally, cutting mechanisms measure and cut the finished borders to the exact specifications needed for each mattress size. The precision of these cuts ensures proper fit when the borders are attached to the mattress panels.
Types of Mattress Border Machines
youtube
Mattress border machines come in several varieties, each designed to handle specific tasks in mattress manufacturing. These machines stitch designs, attach tapes, and create borders that give mattresses their finished look and structure.
Manual Mattress Border Machines
Manual border machines are the most basic type and require significant operator involvement. These machines need workers to guide the fabric through the stitching process by hand. While they're slower than other options, they offer great flexibility for custom work and small production runs.
Manual machines are usually more affordable, making them ideal for smaller mattress manufacturers or start-up operations. They typically include simple serging machines that finish the edges of the border fabric and basic stitching equipment.
The learning curve for manual machines is relatively short, but productivity depends heavily on operator skill. Most can handle various fabric types and thicknesses, though they lack the advanced pattern capabilities of automated systems.
Automatic Mattress Border Machines
Automatic border machines represent the cutting edge of mattress manufacturing technology. These sophisticated systems can create complex patterns and designs with minimal human intervention.
