     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present disclosure, examples of which are described herein and illustrated in the accompanying drawings. While the present disclosure will be described in conjunction with embodiments and/or examples, it will be understood that they are not intended to limit the present disclosure to these embodiments and/or examples. On the contrary, the present disclosure is intended to cover alternatives, modifications, and equivalents. 
     In embodiments, such as generally illustrated in  FIGS. 1A and 1B , the support pillow assembly  20  may include a body  60 , a shell  70 , and/or an adjustment portion  90 . The support pillow assembly  20  may be configured as a neck pillow and/or to at least partially receive a pair of headphones  30 . For example and without limitation, the headphones  30  may be over-ear headphones (e.g., headphones  30  may contact the head of a user  40 , may at least partially receive ears of a user  40 , and/or may not be disposed inside an ear of the user  40 ). Over-ear headphones  30  may include a first earcup  32 , a second earcup  34 , and/or a headband  36  connecting the earcups  32 ,  34 . The support pillow assembly  20  may be configured to at least partially receive and/or support the headphones  30 . 
     In embodiments, a support pillow assembly  20  may support a pair of headphones  30  on the head of a user  40 . Supporting a pair of headphones  30  may include limiting movement of the headphones  30  with respect to the head of a user  40 . The support pillow assembly  20  may connect to (e.g., clamp onto) the head of a user  40  and secure the headphones  30  to the user  40 . The support pillow assembly  20  may or may not support the headphones  30  by contacting a shoulder of the user  40 . Additionally or alternatively, the support pillow assembly  20  may support the headphones  30  by conforming to the neck and/or rear of the head of a user  40 . For example and without limitation, a width  20 W of the support pillow assembly  20  may increase and/or decrease to accommodate the size of a head of the user  40 . 
     In embodiments, the support pillow assembly  20  may limit or prevent exterior forces from being exerted on the headphones  30 , and/or the support pillow assembly  20  may absorb the forces (e.g., instead of forces acting on the headphones  30 , the forces may act on the support pillow assembly  20 ). Forces acting on the headphones  30  may include a user  40  resting their head (e.g., a side of the head and/or rear) against a surface. The forces may be absorbed by the support pillow assembly  20  and may not act on the headphones  30  (e.g., discomfort to the ears and/or head of the user  40  may be minimized and/or avoided when forces are applied to the support pillow assembly  20 .

     With embodiments, the protrusions  120 A,  120 B,  120 C of the first member  120  may be configured to engage the first plurality of apertures  110 , and/or the protrusions  122 A,  122 B,  122 C of the second member  122  may be configured to engage the second plurality of apertures  112 . The protrusions  120 A,  122 A,  120 B,  122 B,  120 C,  122 C may be configured to be at least partially disposed in the first apertures  110 A,  112 A, the second apertures  110 B,  112 B, and/or the third apertures  110 C,  112 C. The overall width  20 W of the support pillow assembly  20  may be the greatest when the third protrusions  120 C,  122 C are engaged with the first apertures  110 A,  112 A. The overall width  20 W of the support pillow assembly  20  may be the smallest when the first protrusions  120 A,  122 A are engaged with the third apertures  110 C,  112 C. When adjusting the adjustment portion  90 , the first member  120  and/or the second member  122  may move (e.g., deflect, flex, etc.) in a direction away (e.g., the Z-direction) from the protrusions  120 A,  122 A,  120 B,  122 B,  120 C,  122 C such that the protrusions  120 A,  122 A,  120 B,  122 B,  120 C,  122 C may disengage the apertures  110 ,  112 . For example the first member  120  and/or the second member  122  may flex in a direction towards each other (e.g., the Z-direction) via the user  40  pinching the ends of the first member  120  and/or the second member  122 . The first member  120  and/or the second member  122  may remain flexed/displaced while the first portion  72  of the shell  70  is moved towards and/or away from the second portion  74  of the shell  70 . When the support pillow assembly  20  is at a desirable width  20 W, the first member  120  and/or the second member  122  may be released such that at least one protrusion  120 A,  122 A,  120 B,  122 B,  120 C,  122 C may engage at least one aperture of the first plurality of apertures  110  and/or the second plurality of apertures  112 . The members  120 ,  122  may be biased toward engagement with the apertures  110 ,  112 . 
     In embodiments, such as generally illustrated in  FIGS. 6A, 6B, and 6C , the second segment  94  of the adjustment portion  90  may include a recess  130 . The recess  130  may extend along the length of the first segment  92  (e.g., substantially in the Z-direction). The recess  130  may be substantially open at a first end  132  and/or the recess  130  may be substantially closed at a second end  134 . The first segment  92  may include one or more ribs  136  (e.g., that may generally form a ribbed surface). The ribs  136  may be substantially perpendicular to the first segment  92  of the adjustment portion  90 . The ribs  136  may be disposed in an array along the Y-direction. The recess  130  may include one or more channels  138  that may correspond to the one or more ribs  136  (see, e.g.,  FIG. 6B ). At least one of the ribs  136  of the second segment  94  may engage at least one channel  138  of the first segment  92 . 
     With embodiments, the second segment  94  may be inserted (e.g., rotated) into the first segment  92 . The first segment  92  may be rotated about axis A (e.g., an axis that may be substantially horizontal) into engagement with the second segment  94  at the first end  132  of the recess  130 . The first segment  92  may be rotated into engagement with the second segment  94  until the first segment  92  contacts the second end  134  of the recess  130 . The connection between the first segment  92  and the second segment  94  may be completed when the first segment  92  may not be rotated further. The number of channels  138  and/or the number of ribs  136  may correspond to the number of different widths  20 W of the support pillow assembly  20 . The width  20 W of the support pillow assembly  20  may be the smallest when all the ribs  136  are engaged with all the channels  138 . The width  20 W of the support pillow assembly  20  may be the greatest when only one rib  136  is engaged with only one channel  138 . 
     In embodiments, such as generally illustrated in  FIGS. 7A and 7B , the first segment  92  may be configured to engage the second segment  94 . The first segment  92  may be at least partially received by the second segment  94 . The first segment  92  may be inserted into the second segment  94  substantially in the Y-direction. The first segment  92  may include a protrusion  140 , and/or the second segment  94  may include a recess  142 . The protrusion  140  may be configured to be at least partially disposed in the recess  142 . The recess  142  and/or the protrusion  140  may extend substantially in the Y-direction. The recess  142  and/or the protrusion  140  may generally include a similar shape. 
     With embodiments, the protrusion  140  may include a plurality of engagement recesses  144 . The engagement recesses  144  may extend substantially perpendicular to the protrusion  140 . The plurality of engagement recesses  144  may be substantially aligned along a top surface of the protrusion  140 . The second segment  94  may include an aperture  146  and/or a fastener  148 . The aperture  146  may be configured to receive at least a portion of the fastener  148  (e.g., a screw, a bolt, etc.). When the first segment  92  is disposed in the second segment  94 , the fastener  148  may extend through the aperture  146  and/or the fastener  148  may engage an engagement recess  144  of the second segment  94 . Engagement between the fastener  148  and/or an engagement recess  144  may restrict and/or prevent movement in at least one direction (e.g., the Y-direction) of the first portion  62 ,  72  with respect to the second portion  64 ,  74 . When the fastener  148  is not engaged with an engagement recess  144 , the first portions  62 ,  72  may move (e.g., in the Y-direction) toward and/or away from the second portions  64 ,  74 . Moving the first portion  62 ,  72  with respect to the second portion  64 ,  74  may allow a user  40  to adjust the width  20 W of the support pillow assembly  20  and/or may allow the user  40  to separate the portions  72 ,  74  of the shell  70  and/or the portions  62 ,  64  of the body  60 . Separating the portions  72 ,  74  of the shell  70  and/or the portions  62 ,  64  of the body  60  may facilitate storage of the support pillow assembly  20  (e.g., the first portions  62 / 72  may be stacked with the second portions  64 ,  74 ). 
     Some figures may show the shell  70  with the body  60  not shown or hidden for illustrative purposes, but embodiments of adjustment portions  90  may be configured for adjusting the position of the body portions  62 ,  64  along with the corresponding shell portions  72 ,  74  (e.g., simultaneously). 
     Various embodiments are described herein for various apparatuses, systems, and/or methods. Numerous specific details are set forth to provide a thorough understanding of the overall structure, function, manufacture, and use of the embodiments as described in the specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings. It will be understood by those skilled in the art, however, that the embodiments may be practiced without such specific details. In other instances, well-known operations, components, and elements have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the embodiments described in the specification. Those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the embodiments described and illustrated herein are non-limiting examples, and thus it can be appreciated that the specific structural and functional details disclosed herein may be representative and do not necessarily limit the scope of the embodiments. 
     Reference throughout the specification to “various embodiments,” “with embodiments,” “in embodiments,” or “an embodiment,” or the like, means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment. Thus, appearances of the phrases “in various embodiments,” “with embodiments,” “in embodiments,” or “an embodiment,” or the like, in places throughout the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. Thus, the particular features, structures, or characteristics illustrated or described in connection with one embodiment/example may be combined, in whole or in part, with the features, structures, functions, and/or characteristics of one or more other embodiments/examples without limitation given that such combination is not illogical or non-functional. Moreover, many modifications may be made to adapt a particular situation or material to the teachings of the present disclosure without departing from the scope thereof. 
     It should be understood that references to a single element are not necessarily so limited and may include one or more of such element. Any directional references (e.g., plus, minus, upper, lower, upward, downward, left, right, leftward, rightward, top, bottom, above, below, vertical, horizontal, clockwise, and counterclockwise) are only used for identification purposes to aid the reader&#39;s understanding of the present disclosure, and do not create limitations, particularly as to the position, orientation, or use of embodiments. 
     Joinder references (e.g., attached, coupled, connected, and the like) are to be construed broadly and may include intermediate members between a connection of elements and relative movement between elements. As such, joinder references do not necessarily imply that two elements are directly connected/coupled and in fixed relation to each other. The use of “e.g.” in the specification is to be construed broadly and is used to provide non-limiting examples of embodiments of the disclosure, and the disclosure is not limited to such examples. Uses of “and” and “or” are to be construed broadly (e.g., to be treated as “and/or”). For example and without limitation, uses of “and” do not necessarily require all elements or features listed, and uses of “or” are intended to be inclusive unless such a construction would be illogical. 
     While processes, systems, and methods may be described herein in connection with one or more steps in a particular sequence, it should be understood that such methods may be practiced with the steps in a different order, with certain steps performed simultaneously, with additional steps, and/or with certain described steps omitted. 
     It is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative only and not limiting. Changes in detail or structure may be made without departing from the present disclosure.
