Fighting through the fever and aches of my flu vax (they always take me out for like a week) with the second baby quilt I need to make for work! Yet again I'm using the Stars and Sharks pattern, because it is simple but really effective.

So the first step is obviously Many Triangles! I used to absolutely hate HSTs because the step of trimming the corners filled me with dread. Just the act of having to set it down on the mat, line up the ruler, rotary one corner, rotate the square, line up the ruler... and over and over again. Then I saw someone in an online class just snip the corners off with scissors and I was like "that's allowed???" and now they're my favourite shape to sew.

The thing that I'm not enjoying at the moment is that either my machine shank is broken, or the 1/4" foot I was sold is the wrong size, because the needle really really wants to land like, 1mm onto the actual metal of the foot. Which means that every now and then the needle hits, breaks, and flings itself at my face. I really need to find a machine doctor....

But! The triangles are complete, and I can change back to my regular, lovely, safe, straight sewing foot.

I wanted this quilt to look a bit like a sun, and hell YEAH I'm pleased with the result. I could see it in my mind, but I wasn't sure how it'd actually work out until I laid the quilt out.

I'm also trying to make it non-directional, so that like the sun, every side is the top and every side is the bottom and every side is the side.

I'm hoping this quilt reads as "gender neutral" as requested. I did check tentatively with the parents if a sun was neutral, but I don't fucking know when it comes to cis people and gendering things. Cis people please feel free to let me know what you think on this one...

[ross-hollander]

how much machinegun would you need to satanize elementals anyway? Like, single transformation LAM concerns aside...

After some investigation I discovered that "satanize" is on occasion slang for "destroy, wholly obliterate", and so the question after that is how much damage does it take to kill an Elemental.

The search for an answer to this led me to seek out the most powerful weapon which could still technically be labelled as a "machine gun". My answer was found, I believe, in the Bane-7. Each arm has an HAG/40, before the pulse laser and quad ER lasers. If you cannot get your hands on that, you may instead need to resort to the most reliable way of killing an Elemental with machine guns.*

A HAG/40 is not an unkind old woman, but rather a Hyper Assault Gauss, the largest of the grade. You may know Gauss rifles as the weapons which magnetically launch lumps of metal the size of, if I have my numbers right with the listed 30cm diameter, some naval shells; the Hyper Assault Gauss actually slims down the rounds in favor of volume of fire. It could be thought of as "Gauss damage plus rotary AC fire-rate". The HAG/20 and /30 also exist; the /40 is the top of the line.

As with any Clan weapon whose mere description can ruin somebody's entire day just by the mental image stuck in their head, the HAG was, of course, designed by the Hell's Horses.

I really hope their numbering scheme on HAGs is different from autocannons, or else that means this gun fires rapid bursts of slugs in the neighborhood of a 400mm diameter, and even for the Horses, that is a disturbing thought. There will not be a target left after that. You hit somebody with that and their whole Star, sibko, bloodname House, and the last Clan they served in under bond will all feel it.

(*Drop a shipping container filled with them on top of them when they are not expecting it. Nearly 100% success rate, but very awkward to try and pull off, you need a very careful plan.)

Taking inspo from your post

Could you write about the mind control machine swapping the minds of these Decepticons and Autobots:

Shockwave

Knockout

Bulkhead

Dreadwing

Ratchet

Ultra Magnus

Wheeljack

Soundwave

Optimus

Predaking

Use a random picker or a wheel to choose who gets mind swapped with who

If you wanna take it further, then add the reactions of the unaffected members on the situation and their behaviour around the affected mecha

good luck and have fun

Ratchet < - > Shockwave

Bulkhead < - > Knockout

Soundwave < - > Optimus

Dreadwing < - > Predaking

Wheeljack < - > Ultra Magnus

Dear Primus the wheel understands COMEDY

Ratchet

His depth perception is GONE and he is NOT happy. He's even LESS happy that he can't CONVEY how distinctly not happy he is nonverbally because he can't even make facial expressions anymore, so he's taken to LOUDLY bitching even more than usual. Admittedly, the extra weight to throw around and the precision-designed clawtips are very useful, and he likes being able to pop out of the ground bridge and lay down cover fire without getting mixed up in the action. It may be giving him ideas for backup weaponry in the future.

Shockwave

The lack of his typical ranged weaponry is frustrating. That anyone should be content with bladed melee weapons alone is simply illogical. He also finds himself incredibly annoyed with the subpar earth-based altmode and all the unnecessary human designed internal kibble it comes with. He does not naturally emote at all, and he will not be starting today, sudden addition of facial features be damned. Gets pretty creepy to see Ratchet's face completely devoid of his usual grumpiness in favor of a completely blank look.

Bulkhead

By the Allspark he feels so small... Speed has never been his strong suit, and grace ESPECIALLY hasn't. Sure the drill and the buzzsaw have been useful when he needs to deal damage, but they're just not the same as good old fashioned Blunt Force Trauma™️. He gets frustrated pretty quickly. However, he does take a certain malicious, schadenfreude-filled delight in messing up the good doctor's finish. He might just take Miko off-roading before they trade back 😈

Knockout

DONT LOOK AT HIM, HES UGLY!! Knockout is going to spend this ordeal researching a cure while locked in a closet... Whatever closet is big enough to fit him anyway. All his usual hideaway spots are way too small for such a big lug like Bulkhead. Which means he's stuck out in the open... Looking like a clumsy, dull, green oaf... UGHH!!!! New plan, time to lock himself in the medbay and have breakdown work his magic with a rotary buffer. New paint job, new slimming decals, he's going the whole 9 yards to make himself borderline presentable. Whether Bulkhead wants it or not.

Soundwave

Soundwave is taking this very special opportunity to do a little trolling. Under normal circumstances, he's sworn never to let his voice be heard again. However... It's not really his voice, now is it? Besides, he doesn't have any of his remix equipment OR his visor screen. His normal means of communication are out. Though he does have Laserbeak to record him while he uses optimus's face and voice to say all kinds of horrible, blackmail-worthy slag that could completely ruin his public image whenever Cybertron gets restored. He'll definitely take requests too :)

Optimus

Optimus is a mech who typically garners a lot of respect, by virtue of his position, his demeanor, and his sheer size. What he is not used to eliciting, however, is fear. And it hurts just a little seeing his trusted allies shrink back when they see him. He has no face to give comforting looks. His voice is not his, especially not under so many layers of off-putting static. Even his big, steady servos, so used to pulling people up when they fall, are good for little more than striking. And that's without mentioning the monstrous tentacles he finds himself relying on. He feels terrifying, and he doesn't like it one bit.

Dreadwing

Dreadwing does not like the Predacons. He doesn't like the Predacons one bit. Call him stuffy with his moral code, but he's firmly of the camp that if something is dead it should STAY dead. The odd little experiments Shockwave concocted are no exceptions. They shouldn't be alive, plain and simple. And the fact that currently he IS one of the resurrected beasts and the brain of this disgusting undead thing is running around in HIS body is, quite frankly, unacceptable. He's going to be looming over the resident scientists with his new terrifying form until they find a way to fix this grievous error and return things to some semblance of normalcy.

Predaking

He feels... Terribly small. Especially in his altmode. Flying without needing to move your wings at all is quite a strange experience. As is having no face or limbs outside robot mode. He's just so compact and it's all very uncomfortable. He will admit, though, it's nice being treated less like an animal. He's yearned to be seen as an equal, true and proper, and this is about as close as he's gotten.

Wheeljack

Oh man, he switched bodies with the straight laced hard aft? Man, if Primus really has a hand in how things play out, he's one funny bitch. He's taking full comedic advantage of this situation, much to Magnus's chagrin. He's saying every swear he knows and breaking every petty rule in the autobot code that he knows isn't really enforceable. He's going on insane monologues about how rules keep us from descending into chaos in a horrible impression of Magnus that overshoots and ends up sounding closer to Sam the eagle from the muppets than anything. The kids are laughing their asses off. Bots who have worked with magnus are doing everything in their power not to laugh, with mixed success rates.

Ultra Magnus

Ulta Magnus does not care too much about being shorter or currently looking like a delinquent with no regard for anything other than his own personal amusement and some abstract concept of "coolness." ...Okay, he cares a lot and its very frustrating that people take a second to take him seriously again, but he cares much MORE about the delinquent currently inhabiting HIS frame and making a mockery of everything he believes in!!! It's unacceptable behavior and his body should be treated with the respect it deserves, not puppeted around for unfunny satire!!! He refuses to stoop to his level and mock back, so he'll simply stare him down until he gets the damn message.

'Tresspasser' Gunship, workhorse of the System-11 rebels. A good deal smaller than the scorpion, but slower and less agile. These are old school rotary wings, dug out from colonial caches or sold on the cheap by spacer black marketeers. The designs predates ubiquitous pd lasers on vehicles, so the rebels had to jury rig a bulky unit on the right side, and an accompanying cooling system on the left. The modifications make handling awful, but it beats getting nailed by smart-munitions.

The 20mm cannon on the bottom is only really effective at shooting soft targets and unarmoured vehicles, which the laser can also pull double duty on. Later in the conflict, they ended up being filled with choke rounds instead to break up sightlines and blind targets in preperation for rocket strikes.

Although its not a great flyer, the excellent visibility afforded by the bubble canopy and roomy interior means that while its not a beloved machine by pilots, its certainly not hated. Mechanics love the thing, though - colonial equipment is famously rugged and easy to work on (although the laser mount is a bit more of a pain to fix).

Hello,

Not sure if you've already covered this but what do you make of the rotary phones with the creepy messages scattered across Faith's region?

Hello! So, if I’m not mistaken, there are five rotary phones in the Henbane River region. First, we have these two messages:

Administrator’s Cabin: “Civilian Female 06” crying.

O’Hara’s Haunted House: “Civilian Male 03” (probably O’Hara) laughing.

Then these three from Faith:

Mastodon Geothermal Park: Shaja su dajri martiyi. (Wenja greeting; just a Primal Easter egg.)

Eden’s Convent: Rachel's so sad and alone. Once was lost, never found. She led a faithless life and it brought her low. Faith rose up in her, but Rachel stayed low down. Faith flies divine, and Rachel... Rachel gropes around in the darkness. I left her there a long time ago.

The Last Best Resting Place: A baby is a sack of screaming, shitting, crying impulses with no personality, no thoughts, no understanding of the world beyond feelings. It has no soul. You have to give it one. The only soul we ever have, we receive from others. And it is only others who can take it away.

In my opinion, the main reason they exist is simply to add to the unsettling atmosphere of the region. The ones from Faith also give a little more information about her identity and beliefs, so that’s nice!

In fact, there were supposed to be more messages, but since they were cut, I have no idea if they were going to be on rotary phones or regular ones…

Two of them were linked to a mission at the King’s Hot Springs Hotel (maybe its liberation) and referred to as phone calls instead of answering machine messages in the files. They were both from Faith, and while the first one is now unavailable, the second one was her laughing and saying (almost singing), “They’re coming...”

Then, we had seven others from Faith, one from Joseph, and one from Tweak. I’ve already mentioned them but they’re included below the cut too. Faith’s deleted messages are particularly creepy, so my guess is that most of them were going to be found on rotary phones as well to make her (and by extension, the region she controls) sound even more mysterious and scary.

The other deleted messages from Faith:

You are many little holes, all permeable, infectable, with wriggling insects, long strings of dirt and oil burrowed into your skin.

Slice open the backs of your arms. You'll get ingrown feathers back there if you don't. I want you to be ready when you walk the Path, when you ascend, when it comes.

Lysergic acid diethylamide, psilocybin, mescaline, dextromethorphan, phencyclidine, and sugar to taste.

He loves you. He's always loved you. Just breaks your heart, doesn't it.

It's the nourishment that counts. The taste of care. The fruit of God's earth. Cut out the eyes, pull off the ears, peel the head into layers, eat your fill. Bury the rest in the dirt for posterity.

Death doesn't frighten me. I'm free of my tethers now. Unbound by the judgment of others. Even as Faith, I was under the consuming eyes of the world. Child, whore, Madonna... I am so much more than all of that now. You could never grasp it. And you'll die before you get the chance.

Gotcha!

From Joseph:

In the end, you will thank me.

From Tweak:

You destroyed my life. Once I've come down from this high I'm gonna get you somehow.

I don’t know where they were supposed to be located.

Memories

Media - The Queens Gambit Character - Benny Watts Couple - Benny X Reader Reader - Y/n Watts Rating - Adorable + Sad AF! Word Count - 2796

I was sitting in the dimly lit apartment, surrounded by a cluttered table. To my left, there was a sizeable pile of mail, and to my right, the calendar lay open, waiting to be filled with important dates. I carefully examined each letter, checked for tournament invitations, and meticulously noted down the corresponding dates in the calendar. Despite the chill in the air, I pulled my shirt a little closer to shield myself from the cold.

As I glanced at the calendar, my attention was drawn to the date for the Oxford championship. I reached for a pen to mark it, only to find that it was already solemnly marked off in red, with her name inscribed beside it.

'Damn it, it's my weekend with Bella.'

I'm sure I can move her to the next weekend, she's a big girl she'll understand I'm busy. Even if I had already moved her weekend three or four times before this, I sighed but moved her weekend even if I felt a little bad about it.

I was diligently working on my tasks when I heard my phone ringing from across the room. Letting out a tired sigh, I pushed my chair back and made my way across the apartment to where the black rotary phone rested. As I picked it up and held it to my ear, I wondered who could be calling at this hour.

"Hello?"

"Mr Watts?" The voice asked,

"Yes, speaking." I nodded,

"Hello sir, this is Eastfield Hospital," he explained, "It's a call regarding your ex-wife Y/n and daughter Bella."

"Y/n! Bella! Is Bella okay!" I asked in a panic,

"The two got into a car accident, you're still on the paperwork could you come down?"

"Yeah, no problem I'll be right there," I said before I hung up,

I hastily changed into a more presentable outfit, ensuring that I had my keys, and then proceeded to make my way across town to Eastfield Hospital.

As I entered the hospital, I tried to maintain a composed demeanour despite my sense of urgency.

"Benny Watts, My ex-wife and my daughter are here?"

"Yes right this way sir," the nurse said starting to lead the way,

"What happened?"

"Drunk driver came rocketing up the wrong side of the road, police are dealing with it."

"How are the girls?"

"Bella sustained some whiplash and a few glass cuts, Y/n is uhh..."

"Is?"

"She's been left comatose, we're working on things."

I nodded, trying to stifle my rising panic, as she opened the door to a dimly lit room. There, Y/n lay in the hospital bed, connected to an array of beeping machines, her eyes closed as if lost in a serene slumber. Bella sat by her side in her black dress and ripped tights her Y/H/C hair up in a messy bun, tightly wrapped in bandages, a stoic expression on her face.

"Come here sweetheart," I cooed immediately wrapping my arms around Bella and kissing her forehead checking her over as I did, but she didn't hug me back, "You okay?"

"I'm fine Dad," She said dismissively pushing me away,

"Well excuse me for being worried about my daughter," I chuckled giving her another kiss but she once again pushed me off, "What happened?"

"Mom was driving me home from dance class, some guy just came up in front of us and rammed us,"

"Why were you at dance classes so late?"

"Rehearsals for the showcase,"

"Ohh... right yeah. Okay, well I'll look after you till your mother is okay."

"Sure Dad," she brushed me off sitting back beside Y/n,

"How is your mother?" I asked sitting down with her too,

"Bad, I hope she wakes up soon..."

"I do too sweetheart," I nodded trying to comfort her but still she moved away, I sighed and took Y/n's hand hoping to give her some comfort.

Y/n was in the hospital for three days, I stayed every day making sure she was okay and checking in on Bella. I always offered to take her home but she always denied it and just wanted to stay with her mom, which I understand.

"Go get some food, Bella," I told her as she sat by Y/n's side,

"I'm fine Dad,"

"Bella. Go on," I told her, "You haven't eaten all day go on. I'll look after your mom," I told her offering her a few dollars to get herself some food,

She rolled her eyes and took the money heading out to grab some food,

I sighed and sat down on the bed taking Y/n's hand, the silence felt so thick between us I tried to look at Y/n but even after all these years it was still far too fresh and painful... of course, I care for her well-being, and I care she's hurt, it's impossible not to care for someone you love so deeply, but it hurts me to be here with her. Knowing that love is... gone. "Please wake up Y/n, Bella needs you," I told her in a gentle whisper, "And... I need you." I whispered pressing a gentle kiss to her head and her sweet Y/H/C hair,

But as I pulled back, I saw her blue eyes flutter open.

"N-Y/n?" I asked as she slowly moved rubbing her eyes, "You okay?"

"Umm... I think so Benny," She yawned before she looked around, "Why am I in a hospital?"

"You don't remember?"

"No," she shook her head,

"you were driving Bella home from dance class," I remind her,

"Oh?"

"And the car got into an accident?"

"It did... Ohh my,"

"You really don't remember?"

She shook her head,

"... Y/n, are you sure you're okay?"

"I feel fine Benny," she nodded squeezing my hand,

I looked down at our connected hands and I spoke again, "Y/n... you're not surprised to see me here?"

"Why would I be?"

"You're not surprised I'm here?"

"No, you're my husband,"

At that moment, a chill ran through my body, causing my blood to feel as though it had turned to ice. My eyes widened in shock and fear, and I struggled to catch my breath, each inhalation feeling sharp and uneven. "You... you're husband?"

"Yes? Are you sure you're okay Benny?" She chuckled, "Ohh hello miss," she said as Bella returned,

"Mom!" Bella bolts over to hug her,

"Ohh... mom? what are you talking about miss?"

"Mom? it's me what are you talking about?"

"Bella?"

"Yeah! Mom! it's me!"

"Ohh my... you... you're so big,"

"What did you do?" Bella turned to me,

"Me! why do you think I did something!" I complained,

"You always do!" Bella yelled,

"What are you two fighting about?" Y/n asked,

"Nothing Mom," Bella sighed, "Get a nurse,"

I sighed and nodded,

We discovered that Y/n was suffering from severe amnesia. She believed that Bella was still a young girl, I was her husband, and our relationship was the same as it was before we got divorced. Despite our best efforts to help her remember, she continued to believe that we were happily married. The doctors advised us to take things slowly. I decided to move back home for a while to provide care for both of them. It was bittersweet to be back home with the girls, staying in the guest room to make sure I gave Y/n her privacy. Although I cherished the time spent with them, it was heartbreaking to see the way Y/n looked at me with such love and sweetness. It almost made me wish that it was real.

"Goodnight Bella," Y/n smiled as she gave Bella and hug and a kiss goodnight,

"Night Mom," Bella smiled, "Night Dad," She sighed,

"Night Bella, sleep well little girl," I smiled trying to offer her a hug but she shut her bedroom door, "Okay... well goodnight Y/n," I smiled,

"Oh? aren't you coming to bed?" She asked,

"Ohh! I uhhh... I'm gonna just stay in the guest room. for now. just uhh just while you're getting better I want you to have that whole bed while you're recovering,"

"Awww thank you, Benny,"

"No trouble I want you to be comfy,"

"Alright, goodnight," she smiled giving my cheek a little kiss,

"Goodnight Y/n," I smiled kissing her cheek too before she headed into her room giving me a little wave as she went,

I sat at the table playing some chess as usual, as Y/n worked on trimming some flowers I got her from the store, just to make her feel a little better so she was trimming and arranging them in a vase beside me. A happy little smile across her lips as she works every so often blowing me little kisses like she always used to, I blushed and couldn't help blowing them back. When the door opens to Bella back from school.

"Hello darling," Y/n cooed, she had gotten her head around Bella mostly cause her being a teen was sort of unavoidable,

"Hey Mom," Bella smiled coming to kiss her mother,

"Hey Bella," I smiled,

"Hey Dad," she snapped grabbing a drink from the fridge,

"Bella, no kiss for daddy?" Y/n asked,

"No," Bella snapped,

"Ohh you too debating again?" she chuckled,

"Yeah, Dad a word," Bella demanded,

I sighed and left my chess stuff getting up and following her into the conservatory shutting the door behind me, "Yes?"

"Cut the crap, Dad!"

"Language!" I snapped,

"When are you going to tell her?!"

"Tell her what?"

"That you're divorced!"

"I will do!"

"When?"

"Soon,"

"When!"

"I don't know. I am trying to be easy with her, the doctor said that's best."

"He said to introduce her to things slowly, not just lie to her!"

"I'm not lying to her!"

"Yes, you are! You're acting like you're still married!"

"I am taking care of her, trying to help her,"

"Yes help her to remember! not live in this fantasy you're still married,"

"Well, maybe I wanna live in it!"

"What?"

"Maybe I... just want her to be happy, and let her live in it a little longer, and yes! Shoot me! I'm enjoying having this life back, this house, you, your mother."

"But this isn't real. and it's not fair on Mom to be confused that you're still together,"

"What is your problem with me! Ever since the accident you've been so icy with me Bella!"

"My problem! Okay! you want the truth! You're a shit dad!"

"Langauge!"

"Ughhh I don't care!" she yelled, "You are a shit dad and always have been a shit dad!" she yelled, "You have never been here, not for one dance showcase, not for one school play, nothing. You just climbed in your car and that's what was it for six months! You being gone! Just me and Mom we made it fine on our own then so why do you think we need you now!" She yelled, "You abandoned us, you didn't care about us,"

"Of course, I care about you, I have always cared about you. I had to work-"

"Work, work, work that's all you ever cared about! Why? why did you get married? why did you have a kid? when clearly all you cared about was your career."

"Bella... I... We never decided to have a kid. Stuff just... happens."

"So you married mom 'cause you know her up with me?"

"No... No, we were married a good four years before your mother got pregnant," I answered, "I... I... Bella, I married your mother becuase I loved her, becuase... she's the only woman in this world that makes me feel that way," I explained, "I... I put work first too much then, and now. I admit that. And I can't tell you how much I regret it. Every day I sit alone in my old apartment freezing half to death, and that's my punishment even if it's less than I deserve, becuase I was a shit dad. I wasn't there for you, I wasn't a good husband I was never there for her either. But can't you see I am trying to be better, even if that means I let her live in this fantasy that makes her happy, becuase it makes me happy too? That for a brief moment I didn't fuck up so badly I lost the only two things in this world I care about."

"Then why? why after everything after you split up didn't you ever make an effort to see us? see me? try and mend your fuck up,"

"Cause... cause I'm a dick. and I know that's not an excuse but... when I lost you girls I was so broken I threw myself into my work, and I didn't visit, and I got distant and you have every right to be furious with me over that. But I did it becuase I felt like I didn't deserve to see you, or your mother, becuase of how much of a dick I was. I felt like every time I saw you I was reminded how badly I fucked up. I would have given anything in this world to get the life we used to have back..."

"That doesn't mean you can use this... this accident, to get that to happen." she snapped, "You have to tell her the truth stop lying that it's all still the same and that you still love her!"

"I do still love her!" I yelled, "... I - I never stopped loving your mother, or you Bella."

"Then tell her the truth."

"I will... Soon," I answered,

I heard the door open so I ran my hand over my face trying to calm down,

"Everything alright?" Y/n asked as she came out confused as to why we were arguing out there,

"Nothing Y/n, it's nothing," I answered,

"Dad just being dad," Bella snapped before she ran off upstairs to her room,

"Everything okay?" She asked me,

"It's fine, teenager stuff," I nodded,

She smiled and offered her hand so I happily took it and let her lead me back to the table,

I lay in bed reading through my chess book, listening to the soft sounds of the night. When I heard the door open I set my book down, seeing Y/n in her little white nightie with her Y/H/C hair up in a bun.

"Hey, you okay?"

"I can't sleep, and I'm feeling better... Can I sleep with you?"

"Ohh uhh... I uhh..." I blushed a little, "Sure," I nodded,

She smiled and came over crawling into the bed with me, "Hello Benny,"

"Hello Y/n," I chuckled,

"Can I cuddle?"

"Ohh Uhh... I uhh..." I blushed, "Yeah, yeah you can have a cuddle," I nodded gently wrapping my arms around her and she smiled nuzzling up close and rubbing her nose on my chest like she always used to, I felt so happy, so cosy and full of joy having her in my arms again, it was like nothing had changed and I never wanted to let her go, I smiled so widely and kissed her head,

"Benny?"

"Yes, Y/n?"

"... I've missed you,"

"yeah, I've missed you too," I nodded, "More than you can imagine," I muttered,

"I've missed you so much, all these years," she said,

"Wh- what?"

"I know Benny,"

"Oh... you know we're-"

"Yeah, I know,"

"How did you figure it out?"

"I found the papers under the bed,"

"Ah... yeah," I sighed, "you're probably mad I didn't tell you,"

"No, I think it was sweet of you,"

"You do?"

"Yeah, very kind of you to deal with my forgetfulness,"

"Well, I wanted to take care of you,"

"I... I sort of liked us being married again,"

"I - I did too,"

"You're welcome to stay Benny,"

"I am?"

"Mhm,"

"Just in the house or in bed with you?"

"Both," she smiled, "and... if you like... maybe stay being married?"

"Yo- you mean it?"

"I do," She nodded, "would you want that?"

"You have no idea how much I want that," I smiled almost crying, "You willing to take me back?"

"I am, you're not the man you were when we divorced. You've only become a better man in that time,"

"All for you my sweet Y/n," I cooed, "I promise I will be the best husband and father I can be this time,"

"I know you will," She smiled, "Do you think... I could get a kiss?"

"Of course, you can kiss, my sweet wife," I cooed pulling her into a soft and gentle kiss,

I smiled sipping my coffee as Y/n came and served me some eggs and bacon for breakfast,

"Umm thank you, my sweet wife," I cooed kissing her,

"You're welcome my cute hubby," She smiled kissing me back before taking her seat,

"Morning," Bella sighed as she came downstairs,

"Morning Bella," I smiled,

"Good Morning Bella," Y/n smiled serving up her breakfast, "You sleep alright?"

"Yeah," she rubbed her eyes sitting down at the table but she saw Y/n and I holding hands, "What's going on?"

"Bella we... have something to talk about," Y/n smiled,

"Important?" she asked,

"Very," I nodded squeezing Y/n's hand,

"Well... You're father and I are going to be giving things another go. He'll be staying here with us and we're going to see how things go but hopefully, we'll get remarried soon," Y/n explained,

"I know we will," I smiled,

"You're getting remarried?" Bella asked, "And he's staying?"

"Yep," I nodded,

"This... isn't gonna be like before right?"

"I promise, I have made my mistakes, I know I was a dick, but I want to be better. For your mother, and you, so we can be a family again." I smiled,

"You mean it?"

"We do," Y/n nodded,

Bella nodded and got up from her seat coming to give us both a tearful hug, I smiled and held both girls tight in my arms never wanting to let them go again.

Northtown Maintenance-of-Way, part 3

For the final part of this mini-series, I'll be focusing on a few miscellaneous, specialized machines used in the track maintenance process. Each one's role can be done by other, less specialized machines, but it would be a good deal harder.

This is a Mineral Products Inc. Multi-Purpose Machine. It's a mechanical jack of all trades, used for everything from trenching to blowing snow off of tracks. Its most common use is as a 'yard cleaner': the big broom mounted to the front picks up material between the rails and loads it onto a conveyor belt, which can dump it off to the side or into a towed railcar. Another popular job is snow removal: the broom is exchanged for an auger system, and the rear-most conveyor can be replaced with an impeller fan and chute. MPI's website says the machine can move 2000 pounds of snow per hour, and the blower can fling it up to 150 feet away from the tracks. Because it's not limited to just the rails, it can also be used on yard roads & parking lots. Other attachments include a trencher, air blower, rotary broom, and a hydraulic arm which can be fitted with its own range of attachments. I'm starting to sound like a shill here... but it is a pretty cool piece of kit.

The next piece of machinery is Herzog's ACT, or Automated Conveyor Train. It's a special set of cars which uses a conveyor system and swinging boom to "precisely" drop ballast where it's needed. The yellow thing seen above is the train's main power unit. I don't know if it uses hydraulic or electric motors, but this car powers them. Each train set has up to 30 cars, which are just high-side gondolas with conveyors in the bottom. Each car has its own conveyor, which dumps into the next car's conveyor through a small hopper.

A closer look at the connection between cars. I don't know if the water is from recent rains or the train's dust suppression system.

And here's the 'front' of the train, which is really the end. It features the operator's cabin and the most important bit, the unloading arm. It can move ballast 50 feet from the center of the tracks, according to Herzog's website. Conveyor trains like this one are mostly used for filling in washed-out track beds, but can also strategically place piles of ballast for future projects. As of writing this post, the control car is still less than a year old. It really is the cutting edge of ballast-dropping technology!

The last machine is another Herzog product: the creatively-named Rail Unloading Machine. It looks complicated, but is actually quite simple. A crane arm feeds sticks of continuously-welded rail (CWR) into a roller system, which feeds it forward (backwards, really) through two clamps and onto the ground.

A view of the other side. Same deal, but all folded up. Check out the flex on that arm!
