Say Less

MASTERLIST | MORE | Pt.2

ꜱᴜᴍᴍᴀʀʏ: You weren’t born a prodigy. You were overlooked, counted out, told to try another sport before you even had a chance to believe in yourself. But when you came back, you came back different.

ɢᴇɴʀᴇ: Sports drama, hurt/comfort, slow-burn trust, silent intimacy

ᴡᴀʀɴɪɴɢꜱ: Childhood emotional trauma, mental burnout, emotional numbness, disordered relationship with food/performance

ᴡᴏʀᴅ ᴄᴏᴜɴᴛ: ~4k

ᴠɪʙᴇ: You don’t talk—but your game does. And Diana hears it loud.

I wasn’t supposed to make it. That’s what they told me when I was ten years old, scrawny and wide-eyed, dribbling a ball way too big for my hands. “Not your sport.” “Try soccer.” “You’re fast, but not smart with the ball.” One trainer even shook his head and said, “No.” Just that—no. Like my dream was a request and he was the authority to deny it. And I believed him. For years, I did. I sat on benches, cheered for girls who weren’t better than me—just louder, just more wanted. I stopped playing. Stopped hoping. Until one day I didn’t. Until I looked in the mirror at age fifteen and thought, “Fuck it. I’ve already lost everything. Might as well lose while trying.”

And that’s when everything changed.

I trained in silence. Cried in silence. Lifted in silence. While other girls were going to parties and prom dress fittings, I was lacing up my beat-up trainers, sprinting at midnight, rewatching film until my eyes bled. I clawed my way to the top, record by record. Number one recruit. Drafted first. ROTY. POTY. Headline after headline. And still… they said I wasn’t enough. “She don’t work hard.” “Five months, max, she’s out the league.” “Pretty face. Not real game.” They didn’t see me repping till my shoulders cracked. They didn’t see me fall on the weight room floor and crawl to the wall just to keep going. They didn’t see me replay the same clip ten times—ten!—wondering why the fuck I didn’t pivot, or why my elbow dropped on the release.

My life became a loop. Not a routine. A cycle. Wake up. Train. Shower. Watch my games. Eat half a meal while studying my flaws. Run. Like something’s behind me. Not jogging. Running like hell’s got my name. Lift heavy like my past is strapped to the bar. Eat again, not out of hunger but necessity, chewing while staring at my phone playing footage of what could’ve been done better. Smile at kids. Hype them up. Post for pics. “You’ll be better than me,” I tell them. And I mean it. Don’t idolize me. I’m not your blueprint. You are. Be you, but fearless. Be what I’m trying to become.

And yet… I’m quiet. They drafted me to Phoenix. I barely speak. Not because I don’t want to—but because I don’t know how anymore. My game talks. My stats talk. So I don’t.

And then there’s Diana.

She doesn’t say much. Doesn’t have to. She’s everything I studied. Everything I molded my game around. Cold, poised, calculated. Her legacy is cement. I’m barely carving mine. But she looks at me sometimes like she knows. Like she sees the exhaustion in my shoulders, the twitch in my fingers when I pretend to be still. I feel it when we sit across the locker room—her calm, my chaos.

She doesn’t call me out. Doesn’t ask questions. And that’s worse somehow. I don’t want to talk, but I want her to know. I want her to get it. I want someone to see me unraveling and not look away.

There was one night, post-practice, I sat in the shower long after the water turned cold. My body hurt. My mind was louder than the spray against the tile. I thought about staying there. Just sitting until I disappeared. When I came out, Diana was still there. Everyone else had gone. She was lacing up her shoes, slow and casual, but her eyes flicked up once—right at me. My hair was still dripping. I hadn’t changed. She didn’t say anything. Just nodded. Not a greeting. A knowing.

That did more than any pep talk ever could.

And still—I don’t stop. I can’t stop.

They say I’m “disciplined.” They don’t know I’m punishing myself. They say I’m “humble.” They don’t know I don’t believe in myself. They say I’m “next up.” I say I’m a fraud. I post on socials so they think I’m thriving. But inside? I’m cold. Tired. Burned out. I have no siblings. No parents. Just a godmother and her daughter in another state. My teammates feel like sisters—but they won’t be here forever. None of them will. When the noise dies down, who will still care? Who will stay?

Diana’s the only one who lingers after everyone else is gone. She doesn’t hover. Doesn’t press. She’ll walk past me in the facility, brush her knuckles against mine. A glance. A touch. That’s it. But it makes the ache dull for a second.

I tell myself I don’t need help. That I’m strong. But the truth is, I don’t ask because I’m scared of what I’ll say if I start talking. I’m scared the little girl in me will scream. I’m scared Diana will look at me differently.

So I stay quiet.Train harder. Sleep less. Smile for the cameras, then cry in the car.

And Diana? She keeps watching. Like she’s waiting. Like she knows one day I’ll break. And maybe when I do… she’ll be the one who stays.

She started her morning like always.

Alarm at 5:30. No snoozing. No hesitating. Straight to the gym. The weight room lights still buzzed when she walked in, hoodie up, eyes half-lidded but focused. It wasn’t discipline. It was obsession. She’d carved a routine into her bones—wake up, train, run, analyze, break herself down so no one else had to.

And today was no different.

The treadmill belt groaned beneath her feet as she ran. Not jogged. Not a casual warm-up. Ran. Like she was trying to outrun the younger version of herself, the ten-year-old kid who got laughed at by a trainer. Told to try something else. “You’re not built for this.” “Try soccer, at least you’re fast.” “Not your sport.” That voice still whispered in her ears, even now, with a pro jersey folded in her locker. Even now, after the draft. After the awards.

Her phone sat propped in front of the screen—old game film on loop. Clips of herself, every missed pass, every turnover, every slow rotation. Over. And over. She didn’t even realize three hours passed until her trainer came by, eyes wide.

“You good?”

She blinked. The screen was still playing. She’d restarted it without thinking. Sweat soaked through her tank. Her fingers trembled when she stepped off the treadmill. Her body was screaming for food—but she couldn’t stomach it. Couldn’t afford to be full when she still felt empty.

She skipped breakfast. Again. Went straight to practice.

Didn’t talk. Didn’t look anyone in the eye. During breaks, when the others joked around or played music, she sat against the wall, headphones in, eyes glued to film on her phone. Studying. Critiquing. Dismissing praise in her head before anyone could offer it. And then—after the break—she was off. Bad passes. Hesitation. Missing shots she always made.

And then it happened. Mid-drill, she froze.

Just stood there, the ball loose in her hands, staring at the hardwood like it had answers. She didn’t blink. Didn’t breathe. Her teammates called out to her, confused. Coach called her name. Nothing.

She finally moved, slow, like gravity had thickened around her.

“I’m sorry,” she mumbled to the coach. “I—I’ll stay. I’ll make the shot.”

Everyone else left. She didn’t.

She stayed on the court until she made the shot that haunted her. Again. And again. Until her wrist went sore. Until the echo of the ball hitting the rim stopped making her flinch. Until it fell clean through the net.

She still didn’t eat.

Skipped dinner. Ignored the questions. Avoided the looks. She dragged herself to the team common room with a notebook, earbuds, and more game footage. The lights were low, most of the building asleep, but she sat up—3AM, eyes red, fingers scribbling notes to herself in the margins of an old scouting report.

She watched herself mess up. Rewound. Watched again. Rewound. Her face was blank. Just a slow shake of her head. Muttering under her breath. “I’m so stupid. That was easy. You hesitated.” Her pen dug into the page. “Get lower. React faster. You were open. Why didn’t you shoot?”

To her teammates, she was a beast. The hardest worker on the floor. Disciplined. Relentless. Serious. They respected her, praised her grind. But they didn’t see what she saw. They didn’t hear the voices.

She didn’t feel strong. She felt like a fraud.

She felt like she was one mistake away from being exposed. That all it would take was one bad game. One injury. One moment of failure for everyone to say what she’d feared since she was ten: “We knew it. She’s not good. She just worked hard.”

And maybe they’d be right.

That’s why she trained until her legs shook. Lifted for the kid who never believed in herself. Ran like her past was chasing her with a knife to her back. Watched game tape until her eyes blurred because she didn’t know how to rest. Rest felt like laziness. Like failure. Like letting everyone down.

Especially herself.

And when she saw little kids in the stands, waving signs with her name, she smiled. Waved. Gave them everything. Hype, love, encouragement. She wanted them to be great. Better than her. Because she wasn’t someone to look up to. She knew that deep down.

“Don’t be like me,” she thought as she gave them a high five. “Be better.”

“Don’t watch my highlights,” she whispered in her head. “Write your own.”

No one had seen her cry since she was a kid. But that night? In the common room? With nothing but silence and self-doubt keeping her company? Her eyes welled up, just barely, and her breath hitched.

But even then—She didn’t let the tears fall.

She had plays to watch. Mistakes to fix. The next game was coming. And she wasn’t ready. Not yet.

The locker room had cleared an hour ago.

Practice had ended rough—your shot was off, your reads late, and your energy drained like it got siphoned out before warmups even started. You apologized to Coach, stuck around to clean up your mess, then hit the treadmill like it owed you something. Like it was the only place you still had control.

And then the footage started.

Your old game—your worst game. Playing on loop. From your phone, balanced on the treadmill panel. You didn’t notice the hours ticking by. Didn’t feel the hunger creep in or the soreness set into your knees. You ran like you were being hunted. Like that one mistake could kill your entire career.

By the time your trainer found you, you’d been at it for nearly three hours. No water. No meal. Just footage and footwork and the same self-punishing words echoing in your head: not good enough, not again, not again.

You skipped dinner.

Skipped the team hangout.

Made your way into the Mercury’s common area—empty now, just dim lighting and the hum of the screen. You dropped your stuff and sat down in front of the projector. Cross-legged. Silent. And you started writing.

Your notebook, the same one you always carried, filled with phrases scribbled over and over:

Not good enough.

Why’d you hesitate.

Be better.

This isn’t for you.

You should’ve listened.

You rewound the footage. Again. Again. Again. Your hands shaking but steady enough to press play. Then rewind. Then play again. You stared like you were trying to see through yourself.

And eventually…

You passed out.

Right there. Cross-legged. Head dropped, neck limp, hoodie sliding halfway off your shoulder. The screen still played your worst moments. The notebook open in your lap, pages worn and messy. You didn’t even twitch. Your body had gone into shutdown.

The next morning came fast.

Some of the younger players walked in first, still groggy from sleep. They froze at the door, staring like they’d just walked in on a ghost. You, out cold, face slack and empty. The screen flashing every missed shot. Every fumble. Every frame you couldn’t stop obsessing over.

One of them backed out to go get staff.

Another one stayed. Quiet.

Diana showed up before anyone else important. Said she forgot her charger. She didn’t expect this.

You, curled in on yourself like a damn kid, notebook wide open, a tear-streak dried across your cheek, screen still running like a punishment reel. Her whole face changed.

She didn’t ask questions. She didn’t wake you.

She just sat across from you on the floor, elbows on her knees, and watched the same tape you’d been punishing yourself with. Quiet. Focused.

Then she picked up your notebook. Didn’t flinch at the words.

Didn’t sigh or scoff or say some cliché. She flipped through three pages. Four. Five. Her jaw clenched.

Because she knew.

This wasn’t about proving people wrong. This was about a ten-year-old version of you who never healed. The kid who got told she wasn’t good enough, and just kept trying to outrun it. Who turned it into a schedule:

Wake up.

Run.

Lift.

Watch film.

Study every mistake like it’s life or death.

Skip meals.

Skip rest.

Skip joy.

Repeat.

It wasn’t just drive. It was damage. And Diana saw it.

When the staff showed up and tried to speak, she raised her hand without looking at them.

“She needs rest. Not noise.” Her voice was low, firm.

Then, after a moment, she stood, leaned over, and brushed the hair out of your face. You didn’t wake up. Not yet. But she lingered. Let her hand rest at your jaw.

“You’re already good,” she murmured. “You just don’t believe it yet.”

And when you did wake���somewhere between now and noon—she’d be right there. Sitting beside you. Watching with you. Not judging. Not lecturing. Just there.

Like someone who understood. Like someone who once was you.

You woke up when her voice hit the silence like a brick.

“Get up.”

It wasn’t gentle. It wasn’t soft.

You blinked hard, eyes barely adjusting. “What time is it?”

“You’re done,” she said. “That’s the time. You’re done.”

You sat up, slow and stiff. “D… what?”

She walked over, grabbed your notebook. Flipped through it.

“You think this is what makes you great? Being your own executioner every night? Watching your mistakes on loop until you convince yourself you’re worthless?”

Your throat tightened.

“I’m just—” You looked away. “Trying to fix it.”

“No, you’re feeding it,” she snapped. “You know it’s killing you, and you keep doing it. You know it’s not helping.”

You didn’t argue. Because she was right.

You admitted it. Quietly. “Yeah… I know.”

And that’s what scared her the most. The way you knew it. The way you didn’t even flinch admitting it.

“I can’t stop,” you said finally, barely audible. “It feels like if I don’t stay sharp, I’ll lose everything. I’ll go back to being that kid who wasn’t good enough.”

“You’re not that kid anymore.”

“Then why do I feel like her every time I breathe?”

Diana didn’t speak for a long moment.

Then she reached down and snatched your phone. You lunged for it, but she stepped back.

“Hey—!”

“No,” she cut you off. “No film. No notes. No treadmill. No drills. You’re gonna eat, you’re gonna shower, and you’re gonna sleep. You’re not allowed to touch a ball for 48 hours.”

You froze like she slapped you.

“Diana—”

“I’m serious.”

“This is all I have.”

She stepped closer, eyes burning into yours. “Then start building more. Because you’re not surviving like this.”

You looked at her like she was asking you to stop breathing.

“I don’t know how to be okay.”

“I know,” she said. “So I’ll teach you.”

She dragged you—literally—to her apartment. Made you sit on her couch with a bowl of food she microwaved herself. You didn’t touch it for a minute. But she stared until you did.

You took a bite. One. Then another. And suddenly, you were starving.

You ate. In silence. Then fell asleep, unplanned, on her couch. Still in your hoodie. Legs curled under you. The first full sleep in… weeks? Months? You didn’t know.

But Diana covered you with a blanket and shut off the lights.

Then whispered, like she was talking to the scared little version of you that never left:

“You don’t have to earn rest. Not with me.”

You woke up disoriented.

Not just tired—off. Like your body knew it had slept, but your mind didn’t believe it. Like your muscles didn’t trust the stillness. You sat up slow, hoodie bunched at your waist, blanket half off your legs. The room was dim, blinds drawn, and Diana’s living room smelled like strong coffee and quiet.

And silence had never felt louder.

You looked at the microwave clock. 11:52 AM. You blinked. You’d slept over twelve hours.

Panic tightened in your chest.

Practice. Film. Recovery. Lifting. You were off schedule. You reached for your phone—wasn’t on the table. Not in your hoodie pocket. You stood up too fast, heart already racing, eyes scanning.

“Looking for this?”

You turned.

Diana stood in the doorway, arms crossed, holding your phone with that same unreadable expression she wore during press conferences.

You opened your mouth, but she cut you off with a raised brow. “You’ve got twenty missed calls. None from the team. All alarms.”

You didn’t speak.

“Sit,” she said.

You didn’t move.

“Sit.”

So you did.

Like a scolded dog. But not because you were scared of her. It was worse than that. It was because she knew. She knew how to speak in a way that bypassed the noise in your head and cut straight to the part of you you kept buried.

“I should’ve been up,” you said quietly. “I messed it up.”

“You fixed it,” she snapped, tossing the phone onto the couch beside you. “You’re still here, aren’t you? You’re still breathing?”

You looked away.

She sat across from you again, same way she had that first night at team dinner. But her energy was different now. Less curious. More concerned.

“You wanna know what I saw last night?”

You didn’t answer. She kept going anyway.

“I saw a twenty-year-old kid who’s already one of the most disciplined players I’ve ever met. Who trains like she’s got something chasing her. Who hasn’t tasted her own win in years because she’s too busy outrunning ghosts.”

Your eyes stung.

“You think I didn’t see it? The hours? The exhaustion? The fake smiles when cameras are around, and the way you sit just outside the team circle like you don’t belong?”

“I don’t belong,” you whispered. “I was never supposed to be here. I wasn’t the prodigy. I wasn’t the chosen one. I was the ‘maybe she’s good at soccer’ kid. I just worked harder. That’s it.”

“And that’s everything,” she said.

“No, it’s not. They still talk. They still say I’m just a phase. That I’ll break. That I’m a fluke.”

“Then stop trying to prove them wrong,” she said, leaning forward. “Start proving yourself right.”

That stopped you cold. You sat with it. And for the first time—you felt it. The ache.Not from training.

But from being twenty years old and carrying the weight of every ‘no’ you ever got like it was your only fuel source. From starving yourself of joy because you thought pain was the only way to earn greatness. From the fact that deep down, no matter what the cameras showed, no matter what the stats said—you still didn’t think you were enough.

“I’ve tried to fix it,” you whispered. “I know I’m not okay. I know. But when I stop moving… everything catches up. The voices. The doubt. The little girl in me who still hears them say ‘this isn’t your sport.’ She doesn’t shut up. Not unless I run. Not unless I train. She only goes quiet when I drown her in motion.”

Diana looked at you like she’d known that girl, too. She didn’t reach for you this time. She didn’t have to.

“I can’t promise it goes away,” she said softly. “But you don’t have to fight her alone.”

You bit your lip. Hard. “But what if I don’t know how to be anything else? What if I need it?”

Diana leaned back.

Then said, “Then I’ll show you how to need something better.”

That afternoon, you didn’t touch the gym.

Diana made you eat again—this time, a real meal. Chicken, rice, and roasted vegetables. You only hesitated once.

Then, she took you to the beach. Not a workout. Not a drill. Just sun, salt, and sand. You walked barefoot. Diana didn’t say much. But she was there, quiet but present, like a steady heartbeat in your chaos.

And for the first time in weeks… you breathed. Not because you earned it. Not because you broke yourself to deserve it. Just because you could.

The notebook stayed closed that night. The phone didn’t charge.

And when you curled up under Diana’s extra throw blanket again, she said nothing.

But she left the hallway light on.

Just in case that little girl in you still needed someone to run to.

just watched this show and idk i think of you remus the whole time? if you ever have the time please an au where remus is boxer and is protecting teddy or harry please please plwase siri could be his trainer’s friend or maybe oppositions friend eeeeeek sorry if this annoys you

Annoy me? I am a loser, a nobody, and nothing without people like you. I have no idea what this show is but that man’s fine as fuck.

I like this a lot. James could be his trainer because he’s the most athletic out of them all in my head, and Remus came to him when he was younger with a terribly managed temper problem so James took him under his wing and introduced the former scrawny beat up little boy to the ring where he learnt to hone all those emotions and aggression. Maybe James is the only person who knows about his lycanthropy and helps him manage it by catering a training/fight schedule to fit around the cycle.

I’ve said before I could see an AU where Remus is a boxer where he tries to schedule his fights in the days leading up to the full moon because of the extra strength, but eventually runs into some sort (?) of trouble because of this. I love the idea of Sirius being James’ best friend who comes to watch Remus train and goes to all his matches. Remus has a burning crush on him but despite the confidence he displays in the ring, buckles when faced with the sharp jab to the throat he feels when Sirius smirks at him. A complete cloth. Physically powerful, but emotionally crippled with zero experience around actual flirting, or people who look like Sirius. Who are as book smart as Sirius. Who are as seemingly calm, sharp witted, and flirtatious as Sirius. It knocks him for six every time and blushes too hard when the proximity is too close, and is completely naive to the way Sirius looks at him.

It could be a little more exciting and angsty if Sirius was on an opposition’s side somehow. I don’t see Sirius as a boxer, but a mild antagonist turned friend, turned something else could be good to play around with.

My fakeamons! This are Hapahosi, Hapaukos and Hapanova. They were based on the blue-ringed octopus, stars, and their life cycle, and a bit of the goblin fish for the head. This Pokemon are naturally curious and really smart, and can get really attached to their trainers; although they are also known to be vengeful if they feel like they have been wronged. This

I haven’t thought a lot about their abilities, maybe levitate? I can imagine them floating around, like if they could swim in air.

What I have thought about is maybe a move that has a 50/50 chance of causing either paralysis or poisoning, and would have like 5 uses so it would be spammed, might come back to that

I also had a trainer oc to go with this guy, but I haven’t drawn them yet. Anyways.

A little story about a zookeeper learning what empathy for nonhumans is - part 1

next

“And this is the last stop on your route,” my trainer said as he took me into the final room in the ‘small creatures’ exhibit.

I did a quick scan of the room as I entered, noting the dark gray walls with glass tanks built into them. It was probably about twelve feet wide and thirty feet deep, and that was just the room that the guests could walk in—I counted seven exhibits total, and six were built deep into the walls, three on each side. There was one lone tank on an elevated table in the center of the room. I made mental notes of all of these little tidbits of information. It would all be important, seeing as I would be spending every day cycling through each room on my route now that I worked here.

Being a zookeeper was certainly a more interesting summer job than a cashier at McDonald’s, and I was actually pretty excited, so maybe my enthusiasm was just getting out of hand.

“This is small mammals, right?” I inquired as I inspected each tank.

“Yeah,” Jasper said, following along lazily as I took inventory. “Sorry you’re stuck with the little guys for your first assignment. They don’t let you work with any of the more interesting animals till you’ve been here a while.”

“I’m less disappointed than you think,” I hummed as I searched through the third tank for the sugar gliders. “I kinda like all these lil critters. The scorpion in the ‘creepy crawlies’ room a while back was freaking adorable.”

Jasper cocked an eyebrow at that. “Don’t think I’ve ever met someone who considers scorpions ‘cute’, but I guess this job attracts the few people who do. Either way, though, this is definitely the room where you’re gonna lose that little spark of enthusiasm I see in ya.”

I furrowed my brows and looked back at him. “Huh? Why do you say that?”

He moved forwards and tapped his finger against the glass tank in the center of the room. I immediately winced.

“Isn’t that, like, a huge no-no? Tapping on the glass?”

“Not for this one,” Jasper said with a sigh. “It annoys her, yeah, but she’s fine. Honestly, the little shit deserves it.”

“Fuck you,” a voice called from within the tank.

My eyes widened and my brows furrowed deeper as Jasper flicked the glass again. I left the sugar gliders for now to check out the central exhibit for this room. The tank was odd—it wasn’t just a cube, it had a hole in the middle, like a square donut. You could get into the hole via a gate on the side, presumably in case you wanted to see the inhabitant from the center of the donut and look around at the whole environment.

Speaking of the environment, it was a lot more sparse than the other exhibits. The ground was red stone, with the occasional rock formation peppering the terrain throughout the tank, creating hills and valleys. Aside from that, the tank was the most sparse out of any I had seen in the zoo. There were a few plastic plants here and there, but not much else. A bowl of water made to look like it was chiseled out from a rock sat on one side of the tank, set up next to an indent in the ground filled with cotton. I could only assume the latter was a bed for the 5” tall nude woman curled up within it, arms crossed over her chest and back turned to Jasper as he looked down on her.

“This is the sole inhabitant of our parvinnet exhibit,” Jasper sighed. “Although some people tend to just call ‘em ‘tinies,’ as if using an adjective as a noun makes any sense when they already HAVE a name.”

He glanced down at the parvinnet’s tank and rested an arm atop it. “This is gonna be your most important job here, rookie. All the other exhibits just require basic upkeep, tidying up and feeding the inhabitants and whatnot. For this little thing though? On top of staying on top of maintenance, you gotta keep a VERY close eye on the state of the tank. She’s smart, and she’s nearly escaped before. Check every day for ropes leading through the ceiling, holes dug in corners and covered with foliage… it’s a bit of a pain, but over time we’ve worked on preventing her from doing much. If you’re wondering why the tank looks so empty, this is why. Gotta make sure she doesn’t have any tools to escape with.”

“Oh, and before you ask, yes, I do bite,” the parvinnet said cheerily. “And I fully intend to draw blood if you ever bring your hand anywhere near—“

She was cut off as Jasper slid open the glass lid and reached down, pinching the parvinnet’s ankle between his forefinger and thumb before lifting her in front of his face. Her eyes shot wide open, and from my viewpoint I could see the pitch-black colour that covered each eyeball in its entirety. I tensed at that, all my instincts telling me that what Jasper was doing was wrong, but I didn’t do anything more than stare. We’re… not supposed to handle the creatures like this.

“Forget your place again?” Jasper asked idly as the parvinnet averted her gaze, tense as she hung from his grip.

“…I’m sorry,” she whispered pitifully.

“Uh huh,” Jasper muttered as he roughly set her back down in her bed. She immediately curled back up in a ball. I couldn’t see any tears from my viewpoint, but something told me she was crying.

“She knows you’re new here,” Jasper said, looking back in my direction with a tired smile. “You don’t have to let her talk to you like this. She’s gonna try to, but you’re totally free to get her to stop. Think of it like obedience training for dogs—you gotta make sure you’re the dominant one.”

“M’not a fucking dog,” I heard the parvinnet whisper with a quiver in her voice. She flinched as Jasper flicked the glass again. She stayed silent after that.

“Anyways,” Jasper continued, “my little routine is to get in the middle of the tank through the gate, then poke around every corner to feel for holes she tried to dig in the glass. Move the little plastic plants around, check underneath the water bowl, look under the fluff of her little bed-nest thing… she hasn’t made any moves in a while, but since you’re new she’s probably gonna be a lot more proactive in finding escape routes. After checking around, food goes here and water in the bowl. Empty it out and clean it before refilling it, because sometimes she bathes in there.”

I just nodded, trying to stifle how disturbed I felt about this whole situation. Jasper moved along to the other six exhibits, telling me proper procedure for handling the inhabitants. My vigor was shaken, however, and my mental notes got a little fuzzy as my mind lingered on the woman in the tank behind me.

(A/N: this story is actually written up to part 8 in my lil google doc that you can find in my first post, I can’t be fucked to link it but it’s there somewhere)

Mastering the Silicone Overmolding Process: Techniques, Applications & Expert Support

Silicone overmolding is becoming a key process in many industries. From medical devices to consumer tech, this technique brings better durability, comfort, and style to products. As demand grows, mastering the process is crucial to ensure quality and efficiency. Understanding how to do it right can set your products apart and keep you ahead of the competition.

Understanding Silicone Overmolding: An Overview

What Is Silicone Overmolding?

Silicone overmolding is a manufacturing method where a layer of silicone is molded over an existing part. Unlike traditional molding, which shapes solid parts, overmolding adds a flexible silicone layer onto a substrate, like plastic or metal. This creates a stronger, more comfortable, and more functional product.

Overmolding has been around for decades, but technology has improved fast. Today, it allows brands to design products that feel better and last longer. It’s a way to integrate multiple functions and boost user experience.

Benefits of Silicone Overmolding

Choosing silicone overmolding offers many advantages:

Flexibility: Silicone stretches and bends without breaking, making it perfect for grips and seals.

High-temperature resistance: Silicone withstands extreme heat and cold.

Biocompatibility: Safe for medical and wearable products touching skin.

Enhanced product longevity: Adds extra protection and durability.

Ergonomic design: Improves handling and comfort.

Cost-effective in mass production: Once set up, it’s faster and cheaper to produce large quantities.

Common Industries Using Silicone Overmolding

Many industries rely on silicone overmolding because of its benefits:

Healthcare: Medical devices like catheters, prosthetics, and trainers.

Consumer Electronics: Smartphone cases, headphones, and fitness trackers.

Automotive: Dashboard parts, seals, and protective covers.

Techniques for Effective Silicone Overmolding

Material Selection and Compatibility

Picking the right silicone is key to success. Types like High-Temperature Vulcanizing (HTV) and Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) work best depending on the application. LSR is fast and suitable for high-volume runs, while HTV offers more durability.

Compatibility is just as important. Make sure your silicone bonds well with the substrate—whether plastic, metal, or other materials. Testing adhesion and durability beforehand saves headaches later.

Surface Preparation and Design

A clean surface is a must. Dirt, oil, or residue can cause poor bonding. Use suitable cleaning and priming methods to prepare the substrate.

Design tips include:

Draft angles: Simple changes that make removal easier.

Part shape: Keep geometries simple to avoid voids or weak spots.

Use inserts or molds to create complex shapes or add features like buttons or textures easily.

Overmolding Processes and Equipment

The main methods are:

Compression Molding: Good for low to medium volumes; simple but slower.

Transfer Molding: Better for small to medium batches; allows more complex parts.

Injection Molding: Ideal for high volume; precise and fast.

Modern machines come with automation and smart controls that improve quality. Adjust parameters like temperature, pressure, and cycle time to match your materials and design needs for best results.

Troubleshooting Common Challenges

Common problems include:

Delamination (layer separation): Usually caused by poor surface prep or incompatible materials.

Incomplete filling: Can happen if pressure or temperature are set improperly.

Mold wear: Use quality molds and maintain them regularly.

Expert tips include testing and adjusting process parameters often. For example, increasing mold temperature may improve flow and reduce air traps.

Applications of Silicone Overmolding: Case Studies & Industry Insights

Medical Devices: Ensuring Safety and Compliance

Silicone overmolding helps make medical devices safer and more comfortable. Catheters with soft silicone covers reduce irritation. These products must follow strict rules like FDA regulations and ISO standards, ensuring safety and reliability.

Consumer Electronics: Enhancing User Interaction and Durability

Overmolded grips make phones, headphones, and controllers more comfortable. They also protect sensitive electronics from shocks and drops. Many leading brands swear by silicone for quality feel and longevity.

Automotive and Industrial Uses

In cars, silicone overmolding is used for dashboard dials, seals, and protective covers. These parts must endure heat, moisture, and vibrations. Silicone’s durability makes it a smart choice to meet safety standards and environmental challenges.

New Trends and Future Opportunities

Innovations include using biocompatible and eco-friendly silicones. Smart silicones with embedded sensors or conductive features are emerging. These materials can connect products to the internet, opening new opportunities for innovation.

Expert Support and Collaborations in Silicone Overmolding

Choosing the Right Partner

Partner with molders who have experience in your industry. Look for certifications like ISO 13485 for medical or IATF16949 for automotive. Their proven quality ensures consistent results and compliance.

Collaborate for Custom Solutions

Work with experts to optimize designs and prototypes. Simulation tools can help test how materials will behave before manufacturing begins. This reduces waste and speeds up development.

Stay Updated on Industry Innovations

Attend trade shows, webinars, and training sessions. Engage with professional forums and industry groups to learn about new materials and processes. Staying current gives you a competitive edge.

Cost Optimization and Scale-Up Strategies

Transitioning from prototypes to mass production requires planning. Analyze your ROI, and don’t forget to use ongoing technical support to adjust processes and reduce costs over time.

Partnering with a Trusted Manufacturer

YEJIA, a leading custom silicone product manufacturer, provides expert silicone overmolding solutions tailored to client requirements. With years of experience and advanced molding capabilities, the company ensures precise, durable, and high-performance parts for various industries. From material selection and mold design to production and quality control, YEJIA offers full technical support to help customers achieve optimal product performance.

Common Substrate Materials

Silicone can be overmolded onto various materials including:

Plastics such as PC, ABS, PA, PPS, PEEK

Metals like stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and titanium

Other elastomers, depending on compatibility

Silicone Overmolding Techniques

Insert Molding: The substrate is inserted into the mold and silicone is injected around it. This is commonly used when the base part is pre-fabricated.

Two-Shot Molding: Both materials are molded in sequence in the same machine, providing stronger bonding and better process control.

Compression Overmolding: Less common but suitable for lower-volume production or specific geometries.

Conclusion

Mastering silicone overmolding takes understanding, experience, and good collaboration. Techniques like proper material selection, surface prep, and process control build a solid foundation for success. Working with industry experts ensures quality and saves time and money.

Keep learning, experimenting, and staying connected with innovations. Investing in proper training and choosing the right partners will help you produce top-quality, durable, and creative products. The future of silicone overmolding holds exciting possibilities—are you ready to lead the way?

Sports Bike VS Cross Trainer: Finding the Right Fit for Your Fitness Journey

When it comes to building the perfect home gym in Sri Lanka, two popular cardio machines often go head-to-head — the sports bike and the cross trainer. Both are powerhouses in their own right, offering impressive cardiovascular benefits, yet they cater to different fitness goals, preferences, and lifestyles.

A sports bike is designed for high-intensity cycling, allowing users to simulate outdoor riding within the comfort of their home. It is particularly effective for those who enjoy endurance training or interval workouts. With the ability to adjust resistance and monitor performance metrics like RPM, calories burned, and heart rate, a sports bike appeals to competitive individuals or anyone seeking an intense, leg-focused burn.

On the other hand, a cross trainer in Sri Lanka — also known as an elliptical machine — offers a low-impact, full-body workout that is gentler on the joints. Its dual-action handles engage the upper body, while the gliding foot pedals work the lower body without causing strain. For those recovering from injury or seeking a sustainable long-term fitness routine, the cross trainer provides a solid mix of cardio and muscular endurance with less wear and tear.

While sports bikes dominate in calorie burn and intensity, cross trainers shine in versatility and joint-friendly movement. The better choice ultimately depends on your personal fitness goals. Are you training for speed and stamina? Or are you focused on holistic wellness and injury prevention?

The rise in home fitness culture means Sri Lankans are now more mindful of equipment choices. Whether you are comparing a cross trainer to a treadmill or eyeing the dumbbell price in Sri Lanka to complement your setup, smart investments matter. Building a balanced space might also include a weight lifting bench in Sri Lanka, creating room for strength training alongside your chosen cardio machine.

At the end of the day, both the sports bike and cross trainer can help you achieve better health. Your decision does not need to be either-or — it can be about what fits your space, your goals, and your motivation to keep moving.

this is in reference to your body image post, feel free to ignore.

Just wanted to say i hear you. It doesnt help looking at weight charts and knowing youre nowhere near overweight. Its the constant disgust in your own skin that used to get me.

I hope you know that at this point the numbers dont mean shit. If you were generally 130 you would want to be 110.

What helped me was working out to build muscle. Like i stopped even looking at the scale and just did weights until i felt strong. Also i had 2 months of exams so my brain refused to process health for a while.

I hope you get better and live the life you want. On a lighter note this reminds me of that one tumblr post "why does god burden my favourite fic author with financial and personal issues. Let them write fic."

thank you for reaching out—while i don’t post those sorts of things necessarily for the support it is appreciated.

tbh i am literally average weight for my height, maybe on the heavier side of average but not overweight—and it wouldn’t even matter if i was! the world wouldn’t combust! idk why im like this. i do partially blame social media, while I try to follow the right people (personal trainers and influencers that are body positive and shut down diet culture bs), i can’t help but see all these super-skinny people and anyone who’s not skin-tight skinny gets absolutely slammed in the comments (by chopped men, to be clear 🫥)

i do know the number doesn’t make a difference—your dream body isn’t your dream body if it’s a nightmare to maintain. i do want to feel comfortable—but i think a part of it for me is that i have an afab body and there are things about that that are uncomfortable to me—weight fluctuations with hormone cycles and my hips are two big ones. i would describe myself as pear shaped and, while that can be flattering when dressing a certain way it can be very gender dysphoric on the days i’m feeling more masc or androgynous (while i don’t use the label gender fluid i would describe my internal feelings as switching the vibe day by day if that makes sense, and there are some rarer days where i feel more fem). i know that if i’m 150 or 130 or 110 i’m going to have the body shape that i have and child-bearing hips (🧍🫥) unfortunately no amount of weight loss will give me that twink build so that is something i need to work through

unfortunately i don’t really do weights. when i did go to the gym i just went on the rowing machine because i liked it and it was the most intense cardio. i did build some arm muscles from it though and when i tracked weight i was discouraged even when the Smart Scale(TM) said my weight gain was from muscle. so i think in the future I will try to not be so focused on the number and instead focus on my energy levels, how comfortable my clothes feel, etc

and thanks for saying you enjoy my fics !! that’s the hope, and hopefully if i work hard in writing and health both of those goals can be met. again i appreciate the support and letting me feel heard 💌

Buy the Best Exercise Bike in Bangladesh – Your Ultimate Fitness Companion

Staying fit from the comfort of your home has never been easier, thanks to the growing popularity of home gym equipment like exercise bikes and cross trainers. Whether you're a beginner aiming to lose weight or a fitness enthusiast looking to improve endurance, an exercise bike offers a convenient, low-impact cardio workout suitable for all fitness levels.

If you're planning to buy one, understanding the exercise bike price in BD is crucial. At Fitness Mart, we not only offer a wide range of high-quality exercise bikes and cross trainers but also ensure you get the best value for your money.

Why Choose an Exercise Bike?

Exercise bikes are one of the most effective pieces of cardio equipment. They are ideal for home workouts because they:

Burn calories efficiently

Support weight loss and fat reduction

Improve cardiovascular health

Strengthen legs and lower body muscles

Provide a low-impact alternative to running

Whether you're tight on space or looking for a quiet workout option, an exercise bike is a perfect fit for your home gym.

Types of Exercise Bikes Available

Before discussing the exercise bike price in BD, it’s important to know the different types of bikes available in the market:

1. Upright Bikes

These are the most common and affordable types. They simulate outdoor biking and are great for cardio workouts and toning the lower body.

2. Recumbent Bikes

Recumbent bikes offer a reclined seating position, providing better back support. They are ideal for seniors or those with back or joint issues.

3. Spin Bikes

Perfect for high-intensity interval training (HIIT), spin bikes are used in professional cycling studios. They mimic real road cycling and are preferred by athletes.

4. Dual Action Bikes (Air Bikes)

These bikes combine upper and lower body workouts by including movable handlebars, offering a full-body cardio session.

Cross Trainers: A Smart Alternative

A cross trainer (also known as an elliptical trainer) provides a full-body workout, targeting both the upper and lower body. It’s great for burning calories while reducing impact on the joints.

Cross trainers are especially beneficial if you’re dealing with knee, ankle, or hip issues but still want an intense workout. Fitness Mart offers both individual exercise bikes and hybrid models that combine the features of bikes and cross trainers.

Exercise Bike Price in BD – What to Expect?

More resistance levels mean more control over workout intensity. Look for magnetic or air resistance systems for smooth operation.

A digital display that tracks your time, speed, calories burned, and distance is essential for monitoring progress.

4. Weight Capacity

Make sure the bike supports your weight. Most quality bikes handle between 100kg and 150kg.

Look for bikes with transport wheels if you need to move them around your home.

Bluetooth connectivity, phone holders, water bottle cages, and heart rate sensors can increase comfort and motivation but also affect pricing.

How Rural Sales Training Can Boost Your Agribusiness Revenue in 2025

In New Zealand's fast-changing rural economy, agribusinesses face growing pressure to meet sales targets while dealing with supply chain challenges, seasonal demands, and shifting customer expectations. One proven way to drive consistent revenue growth is through rural sales team training in New Zealand. In this blog, we’ll explore how working with the right rural sales training companies in New Zealand can help you sharpen your team’s skills, increase conversions, and align your sales strategy with 2025 goals — all in a practical, human-focused way.

What Are the Benefits of Rural Sales Training in New Zealand?

Many agribusiness owners assume sales skills come naturally or through on-the-job experience. But the rural sector is a unique space — relationships matter, technical understanding is critical, and trust takes time.

Here are some key benefits of rural sales training specific to New Zealand's market:

Increased confidence when dealing with technical products (e.g., agri-tech, fertilisers, irrigation tools)

Better engagement with farmers and rural decision-makers through tailored communication

Stronger objection handling and closing techniques relevant to long sales cycles

Consistency across your team, especially when managing remote or regional reps

Rural sales training provides structure, strategy, and soft skills that reflect the reality of selling in agricultural settings.

How Can Training Improve the Performance of a Rural Sales Team?

When your sales reps are scattered across regions, their performance can vary widely. A team-based training approach closes skill gaps and helps your people stay aligned.

With structured rural sales team training in New Zealand, you can:

Set clear performance expectations and KPIs for the whole team

Use training to role-play real-life scenarios, helping reps feel prepared

Develop shared sales language and tools so your brand speaks consistently

Train new hires faster by integrating them into a clear framework

Increase cross-team collaboration and accountability

For instance, the Rural Sales Manager Mastery Programme offers guidance to upskill team leaders so they can mentor others effectively — a smart move in 2025’s competitive talent landscape.

What Should I Look for in Rural Sales Training Companies in New Zealand?

Not all training providers understand rural markets. Before selecting a programme or company, consider:

Experience with rural and agribusiness sectors

Trainers who have worked directly in rural sales roles

Programmes that are customised, not generic

Options for team-wide training and individual coaching

Case studies or references from businesses similar to yours

One example of such a provider is Rural Sales Success, which offers tailored development for sales professionals working in the rural economy. Their programme invitation outlines how they approach rural-specific training challenges.

Is Team-Based Rural Sales Training Worth the Investment in 2025?

Absolutely — especially as agribusinesses gear up for a data-driven, digitally supported future. A team that sells better doesn’t just increase revenue — they reduce customer churn, identify upsell opportunities, and represent your brand more effectively.

In 2025, investing in rural sales team training in New Zealand also means staying ahead of:

Industry consolidation — where fewer players mean more competition

Climate and compliance changes — requiring smarter, trust-based sales

Digital adoption — using CRMs, remote selling tools, and analytics more efficiently

The payoff? You get a team that can sell with empathy, credibility, and results.

What Types of Agribusinesses Need Rural Sales Training the Most?

Based on common Quora and Google searches, here are examples of businesses that benefit most from rural sales development:

Fertiliser and chemical companies with large field sales teams

Rural insurance providers wanting stronger regional penetration

Agri-tech businesses selling high-ticket products

Animal health product distributors

Farm equipment and irrigation solution providers

Any business that involves high-stakes, relationship-based sales in rural NZ should consider formal training.

How Do I Know If My Sales Team Needs Training?

Look for these red flags:

Inconsistent sales performance across reps

Low follow-up rates after field visits

Poor objection handling or pricing pushback

Difficulty selling value over price

Lack of clear sales process or CRM use

If this sounds familiar, structured training from reliable rural sales training companies in New Zealand could be a game-changer.

FAQ: Common User Questions About Rural Sales Training

Q: How long does rural sales training usually take?

A: Programmes can range from one-day workshops to 3–6-month courses. Blended models (online + in-person) are popular in 2025.

Q: Can small agribusinesses afford sales training?

A: Yes. Many providers offer modular or team-based plans that fit tighter budgets, with measurable ROI.

Q: Does training cover digital tools?

A: Most up-to-date programmes include CRM use, digital lead nurturing, and remote sales tools — vital in post-COVID sales environments.

Final Thoughts: It’s Time to Skill Up for 2025

The rural market in New Zealand continues to evolve. Sales teams that adapt — through structured training, rural-specific strategies, and real-world practice — are the ones that will thrive. Whether you’re managing five reps or fifty, now is the time to explore how rural sales training companies in New Zealand can guide your growth. Your team deserves a framework built for success in the field — not just theory from a boardroom.
