i think people don't understand that your life when living with a parent(s) who you don't really get along with isn't all black and white. it's not good or bad. it's neither 100% love nor 100% hatred. it's always in the grey zone. it's the varying emotions - usually a mix of them. its usually i love you so much but i also hate you. I cannot live without you but i also can't live with you.

When I say I like my men old school, I mean the man who doesn't understand girl lingo, who doesn't understand girl math, who doesn't understand the sophisticated spectrum of girl emotions, who cares a whit not about fashion, who will never really get the difference between magenta and pink or between Tolstoy and Dostoevsky.

But he loves me. He loves the things I love because he loves me. He will sit with me and hear my passionate ranting about lipstick colours and banter about its worthlessness. He won't laugh at me but laugh with me because he will love me. He wont understand why my hormones act out in certain days but he will still indulge my transgressions with love because he loves me.

He will treat me like a queen not because I deserve to be, not because I am a woman, not because I'm his partner but because I'm his. Because he can't help but love me.

And I don't need him to understand the intricacies of my womanhood. I don't need him to research the convolutions of my feminity. I just need him to respect my willingness to give myself just as I am to him.

That is the love I want. That is the man of my wildest dreams.

Dont build me a Taj Mahal. No need to write poetry and lavish lyrical praises on me. No need for expensive gifts and remember dates. No need to pretend that you will ever understand a woman fully.

You can't. It is impossible.

Just bring me takeout on my moody days only cause you love me.

on writing as an act of transcendence

the beautiful image is a painting of Sarasvatī that belongs to a set of sixty which chronologically depict a tale told in the Mahābhārata (as well as in the Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa and in the Śrīmad Devībhāgavata), that of King Hariścandra. this painting is one of two beginning the set, and it depicts the invocation of Sarasvatī, the Goddess of knowledge, speech and poetry, who is invoked as the flow of (and to flow the) words and wisdom of the telling. Gaṇeśa is invoked, as well.

in a seminar i recently went to, we discussed sacred texts, and the invocation of Gods & Goddesses in their openings - the muse in the Illiad, the deities in the Sanskrit texts etc. it made me reflect on writing as an inherently transcendental act. as in, it is not you who writes (or creates etc). it is being written through you, and it is therefore futile to take ownership for it.

as a 'writer', i oftentimes read my work and feel as if it was written by someone else. of course, my biases seep in (in editing, especially), but if i fully connect, the experience is that of it being written through me, and not by me.

i understand the invocation of the muses and Goddesses to reflect, in part, this understanding: that the act of creation subsumes and transcends the self or ego, even if only momentarily. that in creating, we tap into and open pathways within that we usually do not access customarily, when we are so entrenched in our sense of self that the energy can only flow in one way (that of sustaining our identity and the patterns which construct it). in creating, the energy can be freed to flow in new or in more ways. this is how i understand the surrendering to the muse or to one's art that is so lauded by poets. 🦢

You know what? I'm not even a good person irl. Deep down I know where I lack and how selfish I am. I feel bad at expressing my desires. I can't "love" somebody anymore. I feel very selfish and bad. I don't know where this comes from, but I'm such a bad person.

This is not self hate, probably a very weird type of self awareness of my wrongdoings, negative traits and it's ironic how I can't change these things about myself. I don't know.

Maybe god created me this way? Maybe this is how I'm supposed to be? It's how my character was written? Who knows.. but these thoughts burn me from inside so much every night. Fuck.

My Bleach OC

So it took a lot of time to put together. But I did it! My OC for Bleach is finally ready. As always with my OC characters, I pay homage to my South Asian roots in terms of their personality and abilities.

Name: Keyuri Ramish (she/her)

Age: 30 in human years (~300 in shinigami years?)

Physical Description: 5 feet 6 inches tall, tan skin, long black hair that is often worn back in a braid. Her body is very curvy, falling under a plus size category, close to an hourglass/pear figure. Her waist is narrow, but she has very generous hips and thighs that are quite toned and a full bust. Her figure makes her self-conscious at times. Large brown eyes, thickly lashed, like a doe’s.

Position in Soul Society: She’s the third seat of Division12, captained by Mayuri Kurotsuchi. Her responsibilities mainly deal with the Research and Development team, creating new gadgets to help deal with hollows and other reiatsu anomalies. She also assists on missions remotely by observing shinigami reiatsu signatures on the R&D’s computers when they try to tackle hollows.

Personality: She’s a little reserved, but is a very warm person once she opens up. Very tactile, and expresses her affection through touch. Enjoys reading, writing, and practicing yoga. Observant, sharp, witty, and loves good banter. Gemini, coffee addict, and loves pastries.

Background: Keyuri is of South Indian origin, reborn into a community called South Asian Soul Adminstration (shortened as SASA, basically South Asia’s equivalent of Soul Society). When her parents first noticed her developing strange reiatsu, they admitted her into a temple soul school, where the priests helped her harness and develop her spiritual abilities. But Yamaduta (messengers of death, SASA’s equivalent of Shinigami) are considered as bad omens in their society, so her advisors work to have her transferred to Soul Society, believing it is a better place for her to grow her abilities and also train her zanpakuto correctly. Her zanpakuto itself is quite rare in the soul world (described in detail below)

Zanpakuto Background at SASA: Zanpakuto souls are not ingrained into a katana at SASA. Zanpakuto spirits are born, through a cycle of birth and rebirth. Once every few years, enough soul energy concentrates to allow the birth of maybe 2-5 zanpakuto. The priests at the school typically take the most talented students of that year to receive their zanpakuto. The students are taken into a separate spirit realm, where they wait in the dark, sometimes for days, until a zanpakuto spirit chooses to be born into their sword. This creates a deep bond, since the soul chooses the Yamaduta its born to. Keyuri waited 2 days before her zanpakuto’s soul came to her. Students that do not get a zanpakuto born on their first try wait years before the next birth can happen. Some SASA Yamadutas never get a soul born to them, and have to work on their other spiritual abilities to make up for not having a zanpakuto. Because of this, Yamaduta zanpakuto are rare, even within SASA.

Keyuri’s Zanpakuto: Her zanpakuto is rare, even in terms of SASA because when her zanpakuto’s soul was reborn, it was the soul of a dying sun god from somewhere in a different solar system. Zanpakuto spirits that are born under such circumstances are called Celestial zanpakuto because it can draw on the energy not only from the Yamaduta, but from all the celestial heavenly bodies, such as the sun, moon, stars, and meteors. Keyuri has admitted multiple times the frustration she faced with her Zanpakuto because there is little information on how to train a Celestial zanpakuto, let alone learn to develop and channel its abilities since they can be highly unpredictable. She admits she has said mean things to her zanpakuto in frustration, only to be hurt when she realizes how hard it was trying to befriend her.

Name: Akashvani (translation: Sky Gift)

Command: Glow, Akashvani

Appearance: Akashvani takes the form of a graceful katar, with a hilt wrapped in fine, royal blue silk embroidered with golden threads. The blade itself gleams with a silvery hue, etched with delicate patterns reminiscent of swirling constellations.

When activated, the blade elongates and emanates a soft, radiant, blue light. The hilt also elongates, giving her better control for attacking.

Shikai main abilities:

Starlight Strike

A trail of stars begins to emanate from the blade and can be controlled at will. It’s impossible to count how many stars are present at any given time, but they glow as they move, creating a beautiful sight to see. Each individual star in the trail can grow to be over 4000 degrees Celsius, effectively burning and melting anything caught in it’s way. The stars glow brighter when they come into contact with an object and start to heat up, in some cases, creating a blinding glow where no one can see what’s happening.

2. Phantom Eclipse

Mimics a lunar eclipse, creating shadows at strategic attack points. Keyuri can use the shadows to blast the enemy with the moon’s energy, dealing close range damage.

3. Radiance Shield

Constructs a protective barrier infused with the warmth and strength of solar energy. This shield absorbs incoming attacks while radiating a rejuvenating warmth that heals minor wounds of allies within its range.

Sometimes I wonder how it would have felt to have been loved by a God.

How must it have felt to be in the affections of the sacred ones and get turned into a weapon befitting the capricious cruelty only the Gods can court?

How must it have felt to be both a soulmate and the ultimate arsenal of Lord Krishna?

Unfortunately, only Arjuna would know.
