IPKKND HEART TO HEART CONVO-(1/n)

It was a nice Sunday morning. Arnav was laying on his bed lazily, half asleep, with his hands folded behind his head. Khushi was, fresh out of the shower, getting ready for the day.

Khushi (quietely inching towards the bed) : Arnavji...? Aap so rahe hain kya...?

Arnav (already squinting at her with sleepy eyes and ruffled hair) : Khushi tum mujhese 'ji'-'aap' karke kyun baat karti ho...? Maine tumse kaha hai na that you are my equal. Tum me aur mujhme koi difference nahi hai.

Khushi (a knowing smile on her face, sat down beside him) : Yeh toh aapka baddappan hai Arnavji, joh aap humse aisa keh rahe hain.( You are being modest, Arnavji.)

Khushi : Hum aapse aise baat isiliye karte hain kyunki hum aapka samman karte hain. Humari nazron mein aapka kad bohot uncha hai.

Khushi : Hum jaante hain ki aap humein apna baraabar maante hain. Lekin aap nahi jaante ki aap humein jaan-anjaane mein kitna kuch sikha dete hain. Aap bhale hi kehte ho ki aap bhagwan mein vishwas nahi rakhte par humne apni puri zindagi mein aapke jaisa, nek insaan, aaj tak nahi dekha hai, joh apne aap ko nastik (atheist) kehta ho.

Arnav : But Khu-

*She placed her index finger on his lips*

Khushi : Hum jaante hain ki aapko purani baatein yaad karne ka koi shauk nahi hai par aaj humein bolne dijiye Arnavji. Aap humesha humein chup kara dete hain par aaj hum bolenge aur aap sunenge.

Khushi : Aaj hum aapko batana chahte hain ki hum aapki itni izzat kyun karte hain.

Khushi : Hum samajhte hain ki aapke liye kisi par bharosa karna kitna mushkil hai. Humein ab samajh mein aata hai ki, aap par kya beeti hogi, jab aapko yeh laga ki, jis ladki se aap pyaar karte hain, usne aapki zindagi ke sabse ahem insaan ke saath, dhoka karne ki koshish ki hai.

Khushi : Beshak tab aapke paas hum par vishwas karne ki koi vajah hi nahi thi kyunki tab hum aapke liye koi nahi the.

*Arnav knew where this was going and closed his eyes to steel himself*

Khushi : Hum jaante hain ki, har roz aap apne aap ko koste (curse) honge. Aapko lagta hoga ki, na aap Di ki raksha kar paaye aur na hi aap, humari vajah se, humare liye, apne aap ko, rakshas banne se rok paaye. Aapne kabhi socha hi nahi hoga ki, jis ladki se aap itna pyaar karte hain uski, nazron mein aapko itna niche girna hoga, ki aap apne aap se bhi nazrein nahi mila payenge.

*Arnav slowly starting to get teary-eyed, turned his face away from her, to hide it*

Khushi : Hum jaante hai ki hum galat nahi the phir bhi humare saath galat hua par hum yeh bhi jaante hain ki aapko bhi utna hi jhelna para tha. Hum samajhte hain ki aapko kitni ghutan hui hogi. Chahte hue bhi aap hum par vishwas kar hi nahi paaye honge.

*She laid her head on his chest with tears rolling down her face*

*Arnav slowly starting to sob, placed his hands softly on the back of her head, caressing her hair gently*

Khushi (speaking through her shaky voice) : Hum jaante hain ki aapko kitna dard hua hoga, ki aap hum se kitna pyaar karte hain, ki aapne hum par vishwas kiya aur humein mauka diya, humare pyaar ko apnaya.

*She started crying bitterly, shaking, trembling against his chest*

*Fresh tears, big and hot, rolled down his face as he took in her words*

He gently pulled her upright, sat up and wrapped his arms around her tightly, eyes shut, tears flowing continuously, his body trembling with the weight of the emotions, that her words held.

****Both of them sobbed for several minutes, calmed down gradually****

Khushi (wiped her tears, sniffing) : Isiliye jab hum aapke pair chune ke liye jhukte hain, toh aap humein roka mat kijiye.

Arnav (wiping his tears, look at her, pursing his lips) : Theek hai. Lekin SIRF tumhare liye.

Khushi (grinned) : Wada kijiye humse! (extended her palm)

Arnav (held her hand, smiling) : I promise, Khushi. Tumhare liye, kuch bhi.

Khushi : Hum bhi na! Ek hi din aap chutti par ghar-pe hote hain aur woh bhi hum roh-dho ke barbaad kar rahe hain.

She stood up hurriedly to complete drying her hair with the towel and placed it on the recliner.

Arnav : Tum chah kar bhi mera waqt barbaad nahi kar paogi, Khushi. (Note- *cue* when he had said something similar but very different to La, in her intro epi)

He made his bed, hung the towel on his shoulder and walked to the bathroom.

Few minutes later....

Khushi (to Garima, smiling dreamily) : Amma, aapko pata hai! Humare Arnavji duniya ke sabse acche pati the, hain aur humesha rahenge....

So.....I tried this one in Hindi....shall I...umm...is it better in English..? I don't even know... Also I don't know if I am allowed to casually tag people here or not. But I wanna thank them as well...so..

Phati-Sari, Jalebi-weds-bluetooth, Paobhaji, chutkiandchotte, onadaanparindey, dimaagkadahi, kashmakash, arnavsinghraizada, laadgovernorandsankadevi, pakki-ya-nahin and all the other IPK fans as well..

Mentioning all of you here because I have huge amount of gratitude to all of you, in some way or the other, I owe you the entertainment that I have received and enjoyed from all of your content and that too for...um...FREE!?!?! I can never thank all of you enough for all that you have done and are still doing for us IPK kids. So, I am trying to do something close to what all of you have done... THank you from the bottom of my heart.

#ipkknd #arnav and khushi #arnav singh raizada #khushi kumari gupta #iss pyaar ko kya naam doon #My guru maas and paas y'all #i got inspired from them and their creations #want to pay a tribute for their contribution in feeding us(parched and starved souls) even after so many years #i iz thankphul to them #i iz lob them #wanna met and give them the tightest hug to them #damn the helplessness #okay so i wrote it becoz this is the reason why I never found- Khushi calling him as Arnavji and wanting to touch his feet- problematic #coz its out of the sheer respect that she has for him #its not due to any obligation nor any sign of patriarchy #she respects him a lot #and i also know that Arnav won't puff out with patriarchal thoughts #becoz his love for Khushi is the most supreme for him he would never think of himself as superior to her #coz he thinks she taught him to live again #he is a feminist without having the urge to spell it out #he is a man of actions he will show rather than scream out- I am a feminist. #This also explains why Khushi said the line mohabbat hi humara dharam hai #aur Arnavji humare bhagwan (probably said this in her head #Tell me - Hindi or English?

After being handcuffed and carried around by Luffy like a sack of potatoes for 40 episodes Law re-emerges and hits us with these cool ass frames reminding us he’s NOT just a helpless princess and Dressrosa is HIS revenge arc.

#he’s still a helpless princess let’s be real #but he’s a damn good looking one #he’s like get prepared for my tragic backstory fuckers! #then proceeds to teleport luffy around just to remind him he’s capable #yes im rewatching dressrosa can you tell #one piece #law #trafalgar law #op #law op #one piece law #trafalgar d water law #dressrosa

And when OPLA calls back to Zeff telling the crew to read stories to Zoro so he can hear their voices and recover faster, by having Sanji sit by his bedside on Thriller Bark and read him a book about the All Blue. What will you do then?

#literally the scene of Nami reading Zoro Noland’s book at the Baratie is my favorite addition #cause East Blue Nami is so damn prideful so seeing her do something that seems silly- #(reading to someone who isn’t listening) #-is such a fun way to mark her progress as a character #I can see her being the one to remind Sanji of Zeff’s advice and the act of reading to Zoro being a way to process the sort of. #hit to his pride and even self-perception that is Zoro’s interference in Thriller Bark. #why did Zoro stop him? Why would Zoro want to die in his place? Choose his dream instead of his own? #(maybe because he knew that sitting by your friend still body- helpless- is the worst feeling in the world) #Aside from this though I can specifically see the book being about the All Blue working #cause its a reminder about what a wonderful dream Sanji has. It’s a way to regain vigor and the willingness to fight for it #after having just tried to discard it in the face of Kuma moments prior #matt owens are you out there. please #opla #one piece #roronoa zoro #blackleg sanji #opla spoilers #for like future seasons that may or may not even happen #my post #zosan

I watched skinamarink

#damn they weren’t lying that skinamarink sure captures the feeling of being a child trapped in a never ending nightmare #and the helplessness that comes with that #definitely the most shit myself horror movie I ever watched and got affected by #I have grown up with incredibly vivid nightmares and uhm yeah #my art #ramshack #original character #this drawing also doesn’t have to be applied to just skinamarink too I looove horror #HOWEVER I’m very prone to nightmares and skittish and easily frightened #I’m still scared of the dark :((

You know who I have beef with in BNHA?

Everyone who saw Tenko on the street and decided not to help him because he looked "creepy".

To hell with "waiting for a hero"! You didn't think "Oh, this is obviously a kid who needs help! Let me take him off the street before some maniac gets him"!

There are some things the citizens could do without relying on the heroes, jeez!

#i know i would have helped him #he didn't look creepy... he was helpless and dirty and hungry #HE NEEDED NURTURING AND AFFECTION DAMN IT #bnha #mha #boku no hero academia #my hero academia #shigaraki tomura #tomura shigaraki #shimura tenko #tenko shimura #just kiya's thoughts

i now realize why I took Gale entirely out of my party for this run

because every time i take him A Place (singular), for A Purpose (singular), he does some of this shit

and i'm just utterly and completely charmed all over again

I am vexed for the wizard appears to have well and truly bewitched me, and in order for me to not completely forget who my current love interest is, i have to dress him up all silly on purpose, and forcefully keep myself away from him lest I fall in love (and into his pants) yet again

he's not even doing anything, he's just playfully bragging a little bit and looking for some casual approval, and i'm just. so embarrassingly into this fucking nerd that that's enough

my character may think of him as just a friend, but unfortunately I, as the player, appear to desire him carnally and on a visceral level, and that births quite the irreconcilable incompatibility of interests

#baldur's gate 3 #squirrel plays bg3 #gale of waterdeep #bg3 gale #gale dekarios #the things I do for that damn vampire I swear #i love him too but. but. #picture a helpless sort of gesture here

Every Moment There Is a Smile on Wang YiBo’s Face, This Timeline is Incrementally Healed

Wang YiBo x Tencent Allstar Night 2023

#wang yibo #fanart #digital artwork #tencent allstar 2023 #the yeekies #it was only a matter of time before I painted the yeekies #only a matter of time until I was helpless before the power of the yeekies #the smile on his face that night was too damn precious to ignore #so instead of ignoring it I spent several hours studying it and attempting to capture it brush stroke by brush stroke #committing it to canvas forever #because I can’t get enough of that smile #every moment there is a smile on Wang YiBo’s face this timeline is healed incrementally #it’s true #i love him your honor

Me: don't think about HOTD and canon Hightowers in ASOIAF.

Also me: If Alicent had discovered the magic side of the High Tower before she got fucked up by the patriarchy, it would've fixed her.

#asoiaf #hotd #alicent hightower #she would be so much healthier if she could call upon dark powers and i mean that seriously #feel helpless: magic #angry at the world and also god: magic #a lesbian: you're already a heretic kiss the girl #it can't make you any less damned

Do you simp for him because you are:

A. A trauma survivor

B. Have daddy issues

C. Like pathetic dysfunctional men

D. All of the above

#vergil devil may cry #vergil sparda #vergil #vergil dmcv #im serious #also some of these options are concerning bc they are and im speaking from personal experience #vergil's fear of feeling helpless is too damn relatable #and well as for the daddy issues I think thats just most of us who had cold neglectful fathers or just really likes dilfs #and then theres just people who get turned on by pathetic little meow meows

[afriendlyblackhottie]

Sooooo

I hate to do this. Like seriously. But I hurt myself the other day and idk I’m a little nervous about the costs of what it might take to fix it cuz i feel better but I’ve been having to miss a lot of work because iiiii feel like shit and my job involves a lot of talking so it’s like if I can’t talk I’m kinda shit out of luck so if any of you can find it in your hearts to donate to my cashapp $allieday27 or to my ko-fi which is in my pinned post I’d really really really appreciate it

#the plastics 💋💋 #yeah I’m an idiot #hurt my jaw #It’s not as bad as it was #but like damn #I do not wanna work like this #like it’s hard for me to do things #and I hate how helpless I feel #so every little contribution matters

In my motivic analysis phase. When did we decide to stop listening to the hamilton soundtrack.

#this is so fucking good #it came out when i was a wee one and i listened to it all the time #but now im old enough to actually appreciate the intricacies #like how the maria reynolds in say no to this tries to mimic some of elizas melodies in helpless but it isnt quite right #like a beat is off or its too low #and the satisfied piano intro plays during take a break and is also the intro to burn #which is like. damn that song really is just foreshadowing and highlighting hamiltons relationship with angelica as like. lost love. #also in take a break when hamilton quotes macbeth (more specifically the actual character macbeth) #in his letters to angelica #when she visits she tells him screw your courage to the sticking place #which is like shakespeare fanception but also thats a lady macbeth line #like. his fuckint wife who actually was the reason he could do all the dumb shit he does. #screaming crying throwing up #au rants #i forgot to tag that in my ranting haste. like the most important tag for people who dont care about my analysis of random shit

everyone forgot fabian and i gasped so loud i choked on my own spit

#ok listen I know these are like. basic fears that everyone has #but seeing fabian admit that he's scared of being incompetent and helpless #and fig think that she's still an awful person deep down even though she tries so hard and no one likes her for real #and riz thinking he's never going to fit in or be valued the way his friends value their partners that he's always going to be less #and gorgug and his imposter syndrome #i am actually unwell i hate this its such a good story #i hate that i've just been teary eyed this entire episode but damn this is a good story #fantasy high #fantasy high sophomore year

frankly, the response that you all have to people hating Biden because he has been brazenly aiding genocide and even with these recent aid drops is being utterly monstrous (dropping expired non-halal items) and is not using the power he has to actually stop this... it is not only about Palestinians, though they are the primary concern. For some of us, it is a reminder that if the US started aiding our people's destruction, you'd stand by it out of cowardice that criticism might make your life harder.

#cipher talk #I live in the US. I know Trump was terrible. I am trans. By virtue of that alone I know the stages of genocide are progressing in this #Country and I have a target on my back #Those stages have continued to progress under Biden by the damn way #But like. Being Coptic I also feel very aware of the risk of outbreaks in political violence for my community there as well #I look at Sudan and hope that I don't see a point in my lifetime where things reach that level #Because I do recognize a shared struggle with non Arab Sudanis and Copts even if historically we've been shit at recognizing that #I already know what it's like to wake up and hear of dozens dead from a fire caused my infrastructural neglect and racism #I know how helpless it is.

if i thought the witcher was painfully realistic. i was wrong. it is a very clear fairytale that comforts and soothes. even in its realistic take on the genre, it inspires, even in its tragedy, it comforts.

evil is defeated epically in a final battle in the darkness, the valiant heroes fall together, the lovers die united, and all pass into legend and are remembered for ever and ever. and the spirit of our hero returns now and again to save and deliver us from evil… they become legend and in that legend they are immortal…

#txt #the witcher books #OK HUSSITE TRILOGY SPOILERS IN TAGS: #like i cant say that evil WASNT defeated in the hussite trilogy because he definitely was but not in an epic final battle but #the fact that its like in the very penultimate bit and its not reynevan who does it but his NIECE it is just so… #we came all this way and there was no ultimate showdown #i mean there kind of was but not in a big castle but in some plains with a windmill and #it wasnt really a final battle but a kill-eachothers-girlfriends bit #birkart didnt even get his hands NEAR samson before he died #scharley and reynevan just left… at the end… just like in the beginning of the first book EXCEPT NOT because everything has changed them #well has changed reynevan. kind of dandelion and geralt in that way as the second man remains a constant #reynevan no longer being like a young man but a. man. but this didnt come with grand heroism and valour. it just came with. pain and #the eventual wearing down and tarnishing of his zeal and belief and love #thats … literally so fucking dark but also so realistic and it scares me lmaooooo #and people say the witcher was anticlimatic and sad at the end LMAOOOO OHHHH NOOOOO #lux perpetua like damn that dude really was walking in darkness groping along like a blind man after losing his eternal light #ohhhhh i get it now so god has abandoned us and he also never really existed ohhh okay #his love died as he was helpless to save her and he didnt even avenge his brother and his friend trio crumpled #like like. just trying to put this all into perspective

[destielgaysex]

reading the tags of a s7 dean crit post to find samgirls going on about how dean is mean to sam and doesnt get that sam is mentally ill and "this is straight up abusive behavior." all i have to say is: do you remember what show you are watching and s7 dean was grieving cas being dead so he is excused from any wrongdoing because he is widowering for the first time.

#meanwhile cas with amnesia being married to a greenhaired brunnette woman #🧍‍♂️ <- thats cas #i think you can take supernatural seriously and delve into what dean has done wrong #do not get it twisted like i know dean is fucked up and has done wrong 😭 #but i think holding deanto a higher standard than sam or even cas is so silly #like if ur gonna call dean abusive and then say sam is sooo #say sam is so helpless and dean abused him #that is just completely misunderstanding what is happening 😭 #so while i am not bashinf these samgirls for taking the show 'too seriously' #i am instead saying their inability to hold sam accountable like they do dean is laughable #like i defintely rag on sam as a joke sometimes but it isnt Serious #bc i know dean and even cas have been 'abusive' #like damn the entire show is about toxic relationships cant we just chill
