Thanks for all the comments! This is a quick interim post to deal with comment I have be receiving....

My humble and simple (if mildly epic) session, posted as a mere afterthought, seems to have interested quite a few people. Lots of personal emails coming in, which is fab, but I am really grateful for those who take time to post their comments and Qs via the blog as it is so much better to share.

In some quarters of the internet which I hang out, this self-indulgent perverted hedonism would seem very out of place in the (alternative) fashion and image preoccupied latex socialising cleeks. Bless. I am envious of them really, but I am also grateful there are some out there who are honest enough to appreciate that for many, rubber fetish is just about getting off sexually on aspects of being encased in latex.

Anyway, enough of that, let answer some Qs….

Hi Auxugen,
Fab Qs / comments.

WRT the key safe I used in November, the tumblers are way too easy to pick. Because they are mechanically connected to the opening mechanism, you can virtually feel them and certainly hear them click into place. I would go as far as to say any mechanical combination are unlikely to be secure if you have 5 or 10 minutes to play with them. Check out the internet and you will never buy one.

This is why I have gone for a mini safe from Yale with electronic 8 digit combination. I have not worked any way to pick the combination. The Yale safe was only about £35 (roughly just over $50 USD?).

So u r aware, the internet tells me the 2 week point of all safes of similar design to my Yale safe. The first is the manual override key / lock (the lock can apparently be picked with specialist tools). The second is the reset button on the inside of the door which might be accessible via holes (for screwing safe to wall) if you happened to have the right tool (very long/thin/stiff/bendy foil or wire). Once you know this, put the key out of reach (maybe give it to a friend as your Plan-B) and make sure there
are no tools at hand (or lock them away in a room and put the room key in the safe!).

WRT to the time-lock safe you found – unbelievable!!! I have spent hours and hours over many many years searching for a small time-lock safe – unsuccessfully. Not being able to find such a time-locked safe is the only reason why I ended up with the software to store a combination in a time-locked store and a separate combination safe.

Well done Auxugen for finding this. It is a little expensive, but looks ideal. I wonder if there are any (genuine/independent) testimonies / reviewers elsewhere on the internet who could vouch for this product? If you do get one, I am sure many who read here will be very interested to know how you get on with it.

BTW – Just in case you are thinking about total rubber enclosure (rather than other forms of bondage / chastity) and wondering if you need a time-lock for more than 99 hours then I would like to put you mind at rest. 99 hours is a V E R Y long time in rubber total enclosure. Having just lived through a long session, I personally cannot imagine wanting to have continuous total enclosure for that long.
I can see that chastity would probably need more than 99 hours before you would really feel the “benefit”. But chastity in “street clothes” is something I only just started reading about in last year or so, so not on my personal hit list yet.

BTW – the randomised setting is interesting. I have that feature
on PictureLoKIT, but was too scared to use it so far!

…Next…
Its from Auxugen again – what an industrious chap…

Firstly, I found your details about the bad experience based on ice interesting, worrying and educational - all at the same time. Your second incident sounded horrific too. My goodness, what a scary scenario.

To answer the question… well it is very difficult to answer to be honest!

In my case I had been planning things (in a very obsessive way) for some time and I was ALMOST on auto-pilot when it came to the final moments of lock in. There certainly was some nerves, to put it mildly. I was also very excited. There was a feeling of anticipation mixed with dread and foreboding too. This last time I was almost overwhelmed by the enormity of what I was about to take on (which I will post at some later date) – I pushed on so I could not think too hard about it and then could not quite believe how mad I had been locking that safe... Basically every emotion, but all at a fairly mild level compared to your situation.

Maybe I should have been a lot more anxious, but I think there are major differences in what I was about to embark on compared to your “proper bondage” (for want of a better way of describing it). So far, my situation is tame be comparison.
In my case, I was “only” locking myself into a condition which was perfectly routine situation for me. I was just dressing in exactly the same rubber that I routinely wear 7 to 10 hours at a time, occasionally 12 + hours. It is really just a case of compulsion to experience the same for longer. I never wear anything “locked in” that I had not worn for long periods before while unlocked.
I am also not locked into a single position, which can be very physically demanding. Within the fact I am totally enclosed in rubber I can move about and go anywhere I please. So far, I am not blindfolded either.

My bondage chains are fairly loose fitting – in my earlier prototype attempts my chains were tight fitting and then I worked out that it was both unsustainable and unnecessary. Careful consideration / design led me to a scheme that was totally secure with plenty of free play in some places (although less in other places). So the bondage chains are the least of my worries and would cause no serious harm if left on for much longer than I could imagine bearing being in rubber TE.
After locking myself in, I always gave myself an hour or two to ensure the rubber and bondage chains are comfortable and only then lock the padlock keys away for the fixed time period. For those who have experienced this, being locked in to what you have already done voluntarily IS a step change in the experience (psychologically), but (given I routinely wear the same outfit) not one that is likely to go dangerously out of control very quickly. OK, it is quite likely that things may get a little more challenging as time goes on, even to the extent that if u were not locked in, you would want out – but this is sort of the point of the exercise – the very perverse thrill of it! However, I have taken the view that these challenges would be slow developing, easy to spot early and probably not so severe as to cause any real danger or more than temporarily discomfort. I rely on the fact that I would have plenty of time to activate my “Plan B” to get me out of it (if red faced) if things do become untenable.

But don’t be under any misunderstanding. This was always a major personal challenge for me. That moment when you realise you are now locked in for the duration, that you have given up control of your situation to the time-lock, is amazing. It almost is a relief as you no longer have the burden of how you spend the rest of the day (or days!). It is also a time of anxiety and excitement, as you don’t know how things will turn out (good or very very bad). For me it was not panic, but maybe some rueful disbelief that I actually “went for it”!


Later, when you have been in there for hours and hours and take a look at the timer and see that there are so many hours ahead of you, you do start to reflect on the reality of your situation. It dawns that there is huge difference to previously having occasionally spent 24+ hours in rubber when things went particularly well and your current situation: a situation where you have no choice but to be totally enclosed in rubber, no matter how you feel about it, for the duration. You wake up the next day and are initially thrilled to be in rubber and then you get the next thrill – that like it or lump it, you are just going to have to “suffer” the pleasure of staying in rubber for many more hours yet. No choices to make. Move on and get on with the good bits…

And you know, there is something else. Isn’t there just a tiny bit of you that gets off on the very small but very real danger of the situation? Probably the worst is that you might get “discovered” by someone you prefer not to get discovered by. But there is also just a microscopic risk that when the time is up and the moment of freedom comes, you suddenly find that something has gone wrong and you cannot get out that easily after all? Knowing that I am forced to have “faith” (rather than 100% scientific knowledge) that I will be able to get out is something a guilty pleasure for me. (as long as I have a Plan-B).

Next, rbrlvr made the comment…


I have a Hydroglove suit and it is not possible to urinate without un wrapping the folds and pulling down the pants. In the past I have just pissed in the suit, and drained it out when getting undressed. rbrlvr

Valid point. Fab that they are so waterproof isn’t it? I assume you are wondering how I piss while still being in bondage? I previously partially addressed with my post 24 Jan as…

“on the session in question, urinating was done “the usual way” without recourse to plumbing…” “…To explain, you need to get a full idea of my rubber and how my “bondage” works, which is tricky. I will cover this in my next full post.”

I am trying to address this in my full write up of my very recent session, but here is a quick (edited down) sneak preview of what I have drafted so far:

I am wearing a hooded Hydroglove suit, which is actually 2 pieces: A top half and a bottom half. These are joined when wearing by rolling together to form a water tight seal…...[also wearing bondage hood/mask combo with belt loop around neck over Hydroglove hood] ….A chain goes through hood neck belt loops to form a loop (around the neck) which is padlocked to hood at the front and a free end is long enough to be routed down my front, between the legs, back up to the back of my neck before doing a second circuit of my hood’s neck and be padlocked in place at the back of the neck. To prevent the chain being slipped off via the leg, a second chain connects to the first at waist height and forms a waist belt.

The bondage makes it impossible to get either half of the Hydroglove suit off. With a LOT of fiddle, it does me to unroll the two halfs to allow a tiny slit to be opened for pissing as long as you constantly hold it open against the stretch of the rubber. However, this access is not really sufficient for anal access / defecation (think about route of chain), only urination which means being dosed up with anti-diarrhoea drugs for the duration.

I know it is difficult to imagine, but the chains do allow you to unroll. On the other hand you also have to imagine that in practice the chains mean the (previously rolled up) rubber does not have anywhere to go, so there is only just enough scope to make a gap between the two half. I tend to usually have to hold down the spare rubber at the top of the pants to make a gap for my bit to fit through.

If I wanted to be all technical about it, this piss time is obviously an exception to being totally enclosed. But in a locked in situation I wanted something reliable and therefore simple and so did not want to go for “personal plumbing solutions”. Once I have relieved myself (and inspected the goods for any issues), I soon want to be packing it all away (even if I wanted out of the rubber) because I find this state is not comfortable for long as the excess rubber wants to snap back and crush my bits if I don’t hold it down.

Hope this is still interesting and of use to people considering spending a long time in rubber. If so, you will love the full write up of my recent extra-long session which has some highs and some lows… I hope I can find time to get this ready for posting in next week or two, but no promises.

Total Enclosure Self Bondage

This blog entry consists of an account of a self-bondage session from last November. I originally wrote this up for my own record in case there were lessons to learn, but have presented an edited version of the journal of my experiences in case it is of any interest or practical use for others. The account details a session that was not 100% successful and is of particular pertinence to me as today I will be undertaking a very similar session this afternoon, with the hope of having learned some of the lessons.

To avoid having to write a long boring intro, the stating condition and my aims are revealed as I go along in the journal entry. [have also inserted a few explanatory edits in the text in square brackets]…


Monday, 21 November 2011

21/11/2011 15:30 TE -0:30

Start session – initial chems and start to don rubber […Totally enclosed in rubber by 16:00…] …I have locked myself into rubber total enclosure with chains and pad locks. I am wearing “Hydroglove” latex rubber dry suit so totally water and air-tight and cannot be removed without unlocking padlocks.


21/11/2011 17:40 TE +1:40

Once I am sure that all is well and comfortable, I put all padlock keys in small key safe which uses combination lock. The combination is not known by anyone as I randomised it, without looking, before photographing it. This photograph is the only record of the combination. I used “Picture LoKiT” software to hide the photo of the combination until a predetermined time. I have therefore been able to lock myself in until 06:00 Wed 23/11 – which means a total of 38 hours totally enclosed in rubber. I know that any software should not 100% be relied upon so I have had to think about a plan B and plan C should Picture LoKiT not reveal the combination on Wednesday. Plan B and C have both been devised to be very undesirable, so I really hope the software does let me out when the time comes. Plan B would be very time consuming as it involved manually trying every combination in turn, which I have estimated might take 5 to 10 hours! Plan C would be highly embarrassing as I would have to walk out in public to retrieve bolt croppers that I have placed in the back of my car parked in a public place. I have set this up so that I certainly wouldn’t consider reverting to plan B or C early – I could only imagine using either if I found Picture LoKiT failed to give me the release code @ 06:00 on Wednesday.


21/11/2011 20:30 TE +4:30

Looking back, the start of this session was quite frantic and a little more physically challenging than my usual routine. Add to that the excitement of the occasion and I guess it was inevitable that I started to get a little warm in my total enclosure. Once the keys were safely locked away, I managed to chill and get things back on a more normal even keel. But the bad news is that although I am only 4.5 hours in, I think I detect a hint of moisture in the suite, when I was hoping to be completely dry for the first 6 or 7 hours in order to stay comfortable for the long haul. Luckily it should be easy to keep the temperature low for the rest of my time in the suit, so although I cannot dry out, at least I will only get soggier slowly. For now, I am very comfortable and the rubber continues to make me feel special.

My suit totally encases me, so for sustenance my suit feeds me a liquid diet through a simple off-the-shelf hydration system. This delivers a mix of my own devising via a tube connected at one end to a 3.5L bag and the other end to my gas mask hood so I can feed without the need to remove any rubber. The contents of the bag contain survival level nutrition and additives to enhance my experience. The additives include herbal food supplements and pharmaceuticals. The whole lot is designed to last me 24 hours before needing a refill, so I have to try to drink at a rate of about 0.15L every hour or 1L every 7 hours. So far I have consumed about 0.5L, which is about right but does not take into account sleeping hours so I will have to up my rate.

Picture LoKiT is telling me I am only 8% of my way through the period it will keep my combination from me. Put another way, I still have 33.5 hours to go - and absolutely no way out till then! I always knew that this was going to be a long session, but sitting here with absolutely no control over when I can take off my rubber, it suddenly feels like an enormous task ahead of me.

I know I have often done similar long sessions in the past, but this feels very different somehow. With those long sessions, I chose to stay encased because everything was going well and I felt as comfortable as could be expected – and above all, I really did not want to remove my rubber. This time, I am in here for at least 38 hours no matter what happens or how I feel about it. I find I am both daunted and very excited, which is of course the point! I want to be excited by the bondage element and transfer of control. I don’t want to be in control of when I can remove my total enclosure. I want to be motivated to pace myself and this element is perhaps the strongest - a little like chastity, my aim is to sustain the fetish driven sexual tension for a long as possible, postponing the moment of climax for not minutes or hours by days!


21/11/2011 22:00 TE +6:00

Somehow I feel a little better acclimatised than I did earlier on. Feeling very comfortable in my rubber skin now.

Picture LoKiT is playing up slightly - when the network is not available its losing time at an alarming rate. More worryingly, if you reconnect to the network, it does not recover. The fix is you have to stop the program and then start it up (with the network connected) before it resynchronises its clock (presumable to a network NTP time source).

Lesson learnt: it is essential you can get internet access at the time you want the release combination or it could be a long wait… Let hope I do have internet access on Wednesday AM!

Due to a combination of the excitements of the day and the accumulating affect my nutrition pharmaceuticals are having on me, I feel my mind is shutting down while being wide awake. Its not unpleasant, but I feel I am going to need to try rest now…


22/11/2011 3:00 TE +11:00

In the first 2 or 3 of hours of rest, I suffered the usual difficulties around falling asleep in my mask hood – with sleep apnoea like symptoms. As I became unconscious I had breathing difficulties that brought me back, gasping. I persevered (what else could I do? I am locked in after all) and steadily I was able to adapt. With some small technique, I was able to relax into sleeping for longer and longer periods in my mask.

More good news is that comfort is high. My earlier fears of becoming too hot and sticky did not come to pass. I reckon I am only slightly moist and that is not unheard of after 11 hours totally encased in rubber!

Then the next challenge to my sleep. I have naturally felt very sexually stimulated for much of the time I have been in total enclosure. My body’s response to the constant rubber stimulation of my libido has been augmented by the significant doses of supplements and pharmaceuticals I have been ingesting both before the session started and through my nutrition system while I have be sealed in my rubber skin. Being sexually stimulated helps me stay motivated to be in rubber for long periods and my chemical mix means that I do not need to expend much effort on keeping myself in the mood – rather my body reacts strongly to the slightest stimulus with a raging erection and all I have to do is try to stop thing developing further.

In the last hour the strength of my bodies reaction to the slightest movements has become monumental and I was becoming worried I may get carried away. The last thing I want to do is ejaculate now with 27 hours to go. That would rob me of significant motivation and also sap my morale as I sat in my own juices for so long. The strength of the feeling of my sexual stimulation is unbelievably strong – like a very strong aching which borders on feeling unbearable. My chem mix does try to address the refractory period and should help to quickly provide subsequent erections, but I would still like to avoid ejaculation for some time yet, if I can.

As a last resort I have another chemical fix. Isopropyl Nitrite (poppers) would combine somewhat strongly with the other chemicals in my system – in fact VERY dangerously strongly unless used very sparingly. For me, I have found a good dose and it wrecks a chemically augmented erection for considerable time. That would give me hours of respite – but also take away the enjoyable sexual stimulus that makes it so easy to want to be in rubber. Also, a sufficiently effective dose often makes me feel unwell and very fatigued for many hours. Past experience also tell me it can go either way, often the [fabulous rush] bringing on orgasm early before its other side effects can get me past the feeling of getting out of control. In summary, Isopropyl Nitrite is very dangerous when combined with sexual enhancement drugs and obviously I am going to try to do without. But although undesirable, it is still the only mechanism I have when things get out of control.

Anyway, [its] back to bed for a few hours to see how I get on. I am hopeful this break will have helped calmed things down a lot.


22/11/2011 9:30 TE +17:30

I cannot claim to have had a normal night’s sleep, but I can say it was a delightful experience slipping in and out of consciousness with the rubber constantly and insistently reminding me of my total encapsulation.

Its proving difficult to keep up with fluid intake. Obviously when asleep I don’t drink and I tend to not want to drink as much overnight even when awake…

[22/11/2011 13:00 TE +21:00]

… as I was not able to keep up with the volume of fluid I had planned, my nutrition system was not able to deliver enough of the vital chems that keep me at peak sexual arousal. [it seems that …] when my body is required to sustain such levels over long periods it must be burning through the chems at a much accelerated rate.

Without the strong sexual arousal, it was becoming a dull experience and difficult to accept. It’s the sort of time when I might have been tempted out of my rubber skin, but on this occasion it was not even a possibility. I therefore arranged a supplementary dose of […sexually enhancement supplements / prescription drug]…

I then had a rest period while they kicked in. Rest seemed a good way cope with my sudden flat period. The chems started to work within about three quarters of an hour or so.


22/11/2011 14:15 TE +22:15

My restored / supercharged libido is now almost too strong now! It is difficult to concentrate on anything for long as my body’s physical needs are so demanding. I am going to need to find something to take my mind of it or I could ruin everything with premature ejaculation - well after only 22 hours of foreplay it would be a bit too quick for me anyway!


22/11/2011 16:00 TE +24:00

Things got too much so I have resorted to Isopropyl Nitrite (poppers).


22/11/2011 17:00 TE +25:00

The poppers were not the answer I hoped for. They did not calm things down but had the opposite effect. I did manage to hold out for another hour or so through a period of constant sexually ecstatic high. But the delayed but enviable ejaculation happened around 17:00, only 25 hours in to my 36 hour session and now I know I will shortly be feeling very low.


22/11/2011 ~18:00 TE +26:00

Sometime within the next hour I stated work on finding a way out of my captivity. To be brutally honest, I was motivated partly because of the beginnings of a friction burn injury to my penis due to 24+hours of near constant abrasion! (Next time I must address this with softer rubber pants and probably silicon lubrication).

I soon found the locks and chain bondage was totally secure, so looked at the software. However, I could not find a way to get the combination picture early.

But I still had a strong desire to be out and it is amazing how resourceful you get when sufficiently motivated. The weak point turned out to be the combination lock on the key safe. I cracked the combination by listening to the minute differences in sounds made by each wheel combination. Then I was out and free!

Once off, I was amazed to find the top half of my rubber suit was actually fairly dry. The legs were only slightly damp….

I think there are lessons I can learn from the experience to move forward to longer encapsulation. With a bit more prep, practice and self-control, I cannot see why I could not stay comfortable for many hours longer. I will endeavour to plan a another extra-long session when I can find the necessary free days, first dealing with the challenges & weak points, not least the easily picked combination lock.

I am hoping to be posting slightly more often this year, but lets see shall we? I got an email that tells me Dark posted me a comment here Fri Oct 07, 04:59:00 PM - but I cannot seem to see it here, which is a shame, so have quoted it below along with my own comments….

Hi Sealed, long time no type. A really interesting blog. I find the whole
issue of fetish overload and the decision to pursue pass through a
potential burn out of critical importance. I have been to this threshold a
lot lately.

Our own rubber freedom has really increased of late, due to a change of
circumstance; and my partner is now so into rubber, that I can rubber,
rubber, rubber whenever I want. [Not at work tho]. Yet I do find times when
it is almost too much. Conversely the thought of turning down a long hot
rubber session is just something I would NEVER do,and NEVER have.

This inner conflict is something I had never imagined would happen. It's
like I have to remind myself just how fantastic it will be; and it always
is. The hold our fetish has on me has not weakened at all, in many ways it
grows stronger, so this makes my occasional yearning for a no rubber
pastime with a sexual aspect even stranger. Like most of us my dream has
always been rubber 24/7. Is the effect of not having our rubber time
restricted by out side circumstances pertinent to this? Or is it that I am
not a kid any more? I'm typing this in cloth but there nothing stopping me
changing into tight black or red or blue rubber. I am sure I will very
soon. When my partner and I discuss new equipment, hoods and garments we
intend to add to our growing collection it is such a turn on, so why don't
take full advantage of our potential rubber time.

I'm not sure whether to take your path and really push harder into the
deeper realm of rubber pleasure. Or to accept that the current 3-4 sessions
a week is enough and that I need some down time from the kinky life.

Dark, thanks for the encouraging words. Dark raises some interesting points…

Interesting that you mention the chastity forums. For a long time, if I thought about chastity at all, I assumed it was only about transfer of control and prevention of sexual stimulation. In my own personal journey, the aims of controlling my orgasm have led me to think about the chastity world again over the last few months. What I discovered was a little confusing as although there was a lot of talk about male chastity devices preventing erections (or at least making them untenable), I also picked up what I think is the interesting paradox that these longer sessions of incarceration were a turn on. This aspect has striking parallels where I am turned on by the very idea of being encased in rubber for longer periods – particularly in the case where I am locked in by a KH. The picture is still confusing to a chastity neophyte like me, as it seems (reading the odd blog) that there are people struggling with sexual tension without a mechanism for sexual release and yet others talk of eventually (after days or even weeks) reaching a state where they periodically experience unsolicited semen emission which to me sound analogous to the release of orgasm / ejaculation that us non-chastity types experience.

Anyway, the chastity subject fascinates me as I have wondered if it might be possible to use the lessons / devices of chastity players to aid my own quest for orgasm control. On the one hand there are the similarities in what is trying to be achieved but on the other I have a sort of horror as to how it might ruin everything. My worry is that such devices might leave me feeling permanently turned-off and flaccid due to the discomfort of the alternative state. I have often thought that if I do not feel turned-on and consequently erect for a good deal of the time when in total enclosure, then I would not feel in a “sexual” or sensual state of mind and not be motivated and comfortable to be in rubber. Of course it might turn out that wearing a chastity device would make me feel very sexually tense for long periods of the time, in which case I would feel very happy to be totally enclosed – but then I would worry about eventually going out of my mind (figuratively speaking) with not being able to get sexual release while being so desperate. Be interesting to hear from anyone who has tried it as I still cannot get my head around whether it would be heaven or hell for me.

You say my situation is more autoerotic, which is undoubtedly true much of the time, but there is some similarities. I do love it when I can find a willing and trustworthy key holder (KH) to lock me into total enclosure for a day or so – and, given my attempts at orgasm control, this is a little similar to a KH locking a man into a chastity device. Unfortunately I cannot always find someone willing and suitable to be KH, and yet the desire for this scenario is so huge, I have found myself compelled to come up with effective self-bondage techniques adapted to total enclosure – but more of this some other time! IF anyone were interested I could share my experiences in following my rather odd fascination for being time locked in TE…

I will avoid getting embroiled in the “steady state” / desensitisation theory mainly because I have said all I have to say for now. However, I will briefly cover the subject of the waning of one's libido (irrespective of cause) or, more accurately, the quantum increase in libido that I am interested in, as I think I am still discovering things. In essence Dark talks of remaining rock hard for long periods while in rubber in the past tense – which I think is exactly same slow the road to despair I was gradually embarking on. For many, this may be the inevitable route that people like must eventually be taking with my “over exposure” to sexual stimulation in general and routine rubber TE in particular, coupled with being a year older every birthday. I cannot speak for others, but I thought it was worth fighting by whatever means available to take me back to my peak or, ideally, take me to new levels of sexual stamina and potency. And I can report that it works for me, at the moment at any rate.

Many may already know this but I think it is important to understand that virtually all of these chemicals (be they herbal supplements or prescription drugs) still rely on you being in a sexual mind set and for you to be sexual stimulated before they have any effect on anything. Crudely put, you don’t get an erection by just taking them. What happens is that when sexually stimulated your body’s chemistry is better able to support the physical demands of gaining and (in my case) maintaining an erection while you remain sexually stimulated.

One development of note is that I was (initially) horrified to see online articles that said that official government testing revealed one of the herbal supplements I was using contained more than herbs but actually contained a prescription only drug. Looking back through my notes, I noticed that this was actually the most potent and reliable herb for enhanced and sustained libido. From this I decided to bit the bullet and go obtain a doctor’s prescription for the drug Cialis, which (not surprisingly) has turned out to be very effective! OK, it is no longer a natural herb, but the way I see it is Cialis has the advantage of being a well know treatment, with well know side effect and better quality control than the herb suppliers!

Anyway, the way I see it is that chemically enhancing your libido (or just making up for old age) does not really change things WRT to auto-erotic or partner oriented sex. It just means you are unlikely to have to worry about your stamina in either scenario.
