After taking so many welding lessons from Simon and developing a crush, you decide to make him a little something to show your appreciation.

(f!reader, simon is a fucking weirdo, jealousy)

As soon as you'd set your mind to the idea, it wouldn't leave you.

Just like everything to do with Simon, it's buried its way into your brain and taken up residence there, gnawing away until you decide to do something about it.

How you're going to do it is something different, though. There's no way in hell you could get away with making something secret in Simon's workshop, right under his nose like that. That man is far too observant to let something like that slip by, and the surprise is part of the fun.

You want to show him everything you've learned from him, every moment that you've hung off of his every word and listened to everything he has to say, every time you've watched him work and absorbed his expertise.

You settle on a bracelet, braided stainless steel, each step made by your loving hands. Hopefully, he'll wear it, and hopefully, you can guess his wrist size properly--fucking massive isn't exactly a precise measurement.

It should take too long, not with everything he's taught you, and you can be back to working in his shop again instead of the one across the city with the guys he doesn't like. You wouldn't go there under any other circumstances, were the situation not desperate. And when you get there, you understand Simon's judgement completely, not that you ever doubted it to begin with. The guys are creepy, and they stare, as well as make comments that are misogynistic, flirtatious, or an outrageous mix of both.

You're on high alert almost the entire time you work, but you try to push it out of your mind in favour of making everything perfect for Simon. Each weld, each sand, each polish, has to be perfect for him because anything else would be doing his tutelage a disservice. You've seen the disappointed looks he's given some members of the classes when his mask is flipped up, but you'd never been on the receiving end--always so eager to please and impress. That won't change now. You won't allow it.

You braid the steel wire with a drill and a vice, cut the pieces you need, sand the ends and get to work on welding them together. It's delicate work, and your mind only slightly drifts to some of your lessons where Simon had lurked behind you, the heat of his body so close to yours as you worked.

You finish the edges and bend the metal to the desired shape, trying to imagine Simon's wrists as you work--which is surprisingly easy considering how much you've stared at that sleeve of his.

The second you finish, you bolt out of that horrid workshop, off in search of a nice box and some wrapping to finish off the gift. You had a session with Simon the following Monday, and it's then you'll present it to him--if you're feeling brave enough.

Monday rolls round, and the workshop is empty when you arrive, save for Simon working away in the corner. You can tell by the way his posture stiffens that he knows someone has entered, even over the noise of his work, because he's always so perceptive.

The box is in your hand, and your palms are starting to sweat as you call out to him. "Hey Si."

He finishes up what he's doing and makes his way over, setting his welding mask down and revealing his handsome features. "Just us tonight." His comment seems fairly inconsequential, but honestly, you preferred it that way, getting to be the sole focus of his attention.

You nod in response, knowing you should just get the gift giving out of the way so you can both get to work, but your stomach twists with worry. What if he hates it? What if he never wears it?

"What's that?" He asks, eyes flickering down and clocking the box and the source of your troubles immediately.

You thrust it at him, almost as if the box burns to touch. "A gift, for you, it's silly really, but I just wanted to say thank you for everything..."

For the lessons, for his attention, for never treating you as lesser.

He rips off his gloves before he gets to work on the wrapping paper, and peels open the jewellery box to see the steel band inside.

"If you hate it, it's fine. It's just a little token of my appreciation." You rush out your words--damage control.

His dark eyes flicker between you and the bracelet, his expression unreadable before he pulls it from the box and places it around his tattooed wrist. The fit is perfect, but his reaction isn't as his expression sours. "Where did you make this?"

"Huh?" You startle, as that wasn't what you expected to come from his mouth at all.

His eyes narrow, and you swear he takes a step closer. "You didn't make this in my shop. Where did you make it?"

Oh fuck, you think, realising you have to admit to stepping foot in that other shop. You avert your gaze as a sheepish expression overtakes your features. "Uh, PK's shop, I wanted to surprise you so, I went there..."

His hand grips your chin, forcing you to look him right in those stormy eyes. "You wanna make something for me? You make it in my shop, yeah? My student, my shop."

The possessive words make you shiver, make you want to fall for your knees, and beg for forgiveness for the unknowing betrayal.

"Yeah, okay, of course... I mean I hated it there, I swear, they gave me the absolute creeps." You try to laugh away the swirling guilt and discomfort you feel. "Left as soon as I was done, and even gave them a 1 star review. But, I'll never go back, I promise."

Your eyes shine up at Simon's, waiting for him to relax.

"That's my girl." Finally, his touch releases and he steps away, grabbing his gloves. "Let me finish up what I'm working on real quick, yeah?"

"Of course." You nod quietly, watching as he walks away as your stomach starts to sink. At least he didn't take it off. "Do you... like it?"

He stops still, checking out where it sits on his wrist. His expression doesn't change, but you can hear the sincerity in his words. "Love it."

And a week or two later, when Simon asks you to come by the shop one night outside of your sessions, you're not entirely sure what to expect.

He explains he's trying something new, and needs your help, and doesn't explain anything further. But it's Simon, so of course you comply, of course you trust him.

It's only when he brings out a micro welder and a small length of gold chain that you realise what's happening. The intense look in his eyes before he gets to work leaves no room for argument, and you silently accept your fate as he permanently attaches that little bracelet to your wrist--a dainty little 'S' charm hanging from the middle.

I fully believe Henry’s one of those guys who has the scary high heat tolerance in his hands. Like he can grab searing metal. He can get the toast out of the toaster. Able to just shove his hand in a campfire and not even flinch about it. Utterly terrifying.

i wanna flesh out the FSAU cast a little more, so here are two new faces! Gisu (31) and Chloe (23) both work in the engineering department at the Motherlobe. Gisu is the de facto head of department (officially it’s still Otto, he keeps promising to retire and then pulling a Hayao Miyazaki and coming back for “one more invention”, but Gisu handles most of the practical stuff), and Chloe specialises in aerospace engineering.

read a cute little r6 fluff fanfic before going to bed yesterday because my anxiety was running high and I love how everyone in the fanfics gives jäger some kind of stupidly (<-affectionatly) soft taste in music when in reality its almost like you're legally required to be a metalhead when you do anything in regards to engineering or electronics considering just how much of the german metal scene is made up of dudes who work in those fields.

Also, the guy with a special interest for aviation and aerial warfare who restored a bunch of aircrafts as display pieces just for shit and giggles not listening to Sabatons "Night Witches" or " Winged Hussars"? Very unlikely.

Nothing quite like learning to use a full-sized mig welding gun to expose just how weak "being on that phone all the time" actually makes your grip strength XoX

I'm stuck at the back of the class atm (along w/ one other girl), struggling to pass laying consistent beads in the overhead position i.e. reaching up and welding straight lines with liquid metal on a piece of steel that is literally suspended above head height. I was able to pass the other positions because you can compensate with stronger muscles like biceps, but overhead says nah to that. Only full-palm squeeze + finger manipulation on the gun, with shoulder + lower back to pull it towards you will work (if you and your arms are short OTL), and I am simply not buff like that yet.

At least i'm having enough fun learning, that it balances out these early frustrations! The build I need to succeed will come with time 'n practice, just gotta keep at it

There's apparently a stigma against gaming the system to the extent that I did but in my defense, I had committed to playing Healer and needed to game it to make my build work specifically as a Healer. But also that level of gaming to learn as much magic as she could as fast as she could is exactly the kind of thing Lucy would do and that Beezy would facilitate because he, uh, needs her to have lots of spells to, uh, commit to his cause >.>

Feb 2022: Prime Minister Scott Morrison tries to convince voters he understands the common man by cosplaying as a welder while visiting a workshop.

However he fails to convince voters of his working-class cred after making the baffling decision to remove his mask mid-weld, in order to see better.

After this fiasco, Morrison's government also quietly shelved their plan to allow children to drive forklifts.
