ok i am now having coherent thoughts about the Guys:
so gow:r at its core is about fatherhood and learning to let go, even if it's gonna hurt like a son of a bitch. (to me, at least)
the scene where atreus tells kratos that he must find the remaining giants, alone, because he has to. because at his core, atreus is a victim of a genocide. (odin and thor had a vendetta, and as far as he knows, he and angrbroda are the only living giants left in midgard) he wants to connect with his culture, because he never really got that with his mother and the only other giant he knows is angrbroda, and they've only known each other for a short amount of time. not to mention that she's also fourteen and watched her parents and the people around her die until it was just her and her grandmother
and atreus is only fourteen, he's watched the end of the world nearly come to fruition, not to mention that he saw brok get killed by odin, posing as tyr. and atreus. atreus has to take this on because he has to.
and we saw that kratos at the beginning and for most of the game, he had accepted that he was going to die, so he pushed atreus. but he wasn't willing to let go of his son. so he refused atreus being the champion of the jotnar, because what if he lost another child to something that could be prevented?
and i am not going to go into kratos' guilt complex about his first family. (for now. might be a separate post or a tag ramble, who knows)
so when kratos, at the end of the game says, "Loki will go... Atreus shall stay." not only is it soul shattering and the emotional equivalent of a brick to the face, it highlights his growth as a character and a father and his reluctance to let go.
but he does. and yeah, it hurts. but atreus'll return.
and kratos and thor are two sides of the same coin. both of them had shitty fathers who insisted that they were destroyers. hell, even thor acknowledges that at their core, both he and kratos can very easily destroy things. they love their respective children to death, and are willing to kill for them. (even if thor didn't treat his sons well. like he beat the living shit out of modi because his brother was killed by a much older god who was stronger than him.) but kratos broke out of the cycle of sons killing their fathers. (or fathers killing their sons)
yeah, he killed zeus. but instead of hurting his son and restricting his growth, kratos encouraged that. and yeah, kratos wasn't the best with atreus in gow:2018, but he was fucking terrified that he would hurt atreus like he hurt calliope. but he didn't.
thor, unlike kratos, never got to break out of the cycle. from what we've seen, asgard had a "kill or be killed" culture. you couldn't afford to be soft and kind. you had to be a hardass, you had to hurt people. and odin cultivated that, to the point where it was his downfall.
from what we've seen, odin encouraged thor to be a violent and drunken monster.
"I think, you kill."
and then thor died, leaving behind a violent and bloody legacy for his only surviving child to unpack.
so at its core, god of war: ragnarok is about breaking the cycle and having good supports.

okay I have to vent, you can ignore this ask but I would love it if you gave your opinions on the topic. Hindublr lately seems to be filled with spam tagged #casteism and other things wherein the entire religion or culture is reduced to just caste atrocities. I blocked some but it is like new accounts spring up everyday. Hindublr isn't a politics tag? Atleast it wasn't when I first joined tumblr. Also these blogs are full of blatant hindu hate and somehow they equate being an orthodox hindu as being a bjp supporter? Like if you call them out on their misinformation they start calling you andhbhakt even if the context had nothing to do with bjp? Modi hate or Yogi hate is so blatant. Like these blogs aren't even talking about actual problems. They spread misinformation most of the times. Like yk in one of your answers on that one blog that was regarding Congress sending army to kashmir.
Half baked knowledge, "saviour of the dalits" complex and Hindu hate is all they offer. I am all for talking about genuine discrimination that goes on in our society but it must be based on facts rather than artificial hysteria and emotion driven ideologies.
Honestly, call me a hypocrite because I use the hindublr tag for political stuff relating to hindus aswell , but I will admit that the tag of Hindublr is not for Hindu hate, its for hindus to engage.
Blogs like not-so-sweet61 and others following her trail are truly going out of their way to spread hate about us. Their motive for tagging is not to spread awareness, because their manner of presenting is vehemently anti Hindu (as you said, half baked facts) , and what they do is not spreading awareness either; they are doing a sham act of defaming the religion in the name of “calling out the bad practices” by bringingthe character of Shri Ram and others into question.
And before people call me out for being a propagandist and all, the sweet61 is not someone who is calling out ill treatment of Dalits that I am too much of an andhbhakt to see, this person is a muslim calling out Hindu Gods. I had an altercation with her during the infancy of this blog, and skimmed through hers to find Sufi quotations and other Islam related stuff that has most likely been removed as of now becuase I can no longer find it.
That put things in perispective for y’all?
Also, cherry on the cake, she’s a congressi, girl legit quoted Sonia Gandhi on section 377 like it was not Congress under whose command it was reinstated🤡 So yeah, ofcourse theres andhbhakt comments and equating shit to BJP.
They are not saviours of dalits, they are not champions of minority. These are people of other faiths targetting us systematically, maybe because of the non left alignment of people who use the hindublr tag.
And another thing? Hindublr tag is used by Hindus ourselves, like I said, for engaging with each other on religion related stuff. For those not of the faith, they use hinduism tag. The specific use is for us so these people are using the tag on purpose to get our attention.
Nothing more, nothing else.

WHY????????????????
idk at some point it started with some confusion about not knowing what to think and also i really love people and attention so i would do anything for people validation. but then i kinda also didn't want to filter my friendships liek i had tried to around 15 16 based on that bc i started realising that it happens even if i oppose it, it's supposed to be this way and it's better this way cause like i have parents who support bjp even tho i will murder modi if i can? i have uncle and aunties and family members and neighbours i love but can never make understand about a lot of political issues and will always disagree with. no good humans or bad humans just humans with various experiences and we are all dumb. so why would i filter my friends. it's fine, we all learn and grow... i like it better this way. and i genuinely dont mind i see all points of views, even the ones yall somehwow act like can't be justified. no matter how bad it is it's human and i think we can all find it in ourselves to feel it. yall laugh and say u get murderers all the time, just because a couple people on tumblr said it too u think that's somehow ok but getting racism is somehow extremely inhumane? dont make sense to me. doesn't make any of it right but i get it. i can talk to u ab it. maybe learn and make u learn. if u hurt others actively it's bad i won't respect u that much wont be able to get close to u but doesnt mean i cant talk to u bond over other things idk. lot of times u bond over people u fundamentally disagree withs oemtimes bc u just dont come across so many thing until later. it's the nature of life it's fine. yeah i mostly agree with everything with my best friend, i think it plays major role in why we are close, but liek ngl now that i thinka b it she is mostly an apolitical person even tho my personality is all made around my political opinions and a few years back i always said i hated apolitical people... btu yeah when we talk she tends to agree with most of what i have to say. i dont think i would be able to have my closest friendships with like a super misogyniystic racist guy the way i am friends with my best friends i have rn, cause i think we wont have much to bond over yeah but idk i have some friends i love very much i strongly disagree with but it works somehow i think it's mostly cause they are willing to listen and we all share this 1 attitude of love even if we are all strongly opinionated and stuff i think m actually loosing my friendships with some of my high school friends even tho we agree on everything bc they have that whole i cant forgive u if u dont strongly think and argue everyone who disagrees about this 1 specific issue that actually has a shit ton of nuance fr

Rape : An Social Evil
"Rape" , what are the main causes of rape. Basically it is just because of sexual ambition that most of the bastards in India. Nowadays India is not composed of humans it is full of animals or I should say even animals are better than humans as at least they know hot treat and respects their own community but humans they are hurting there own community in many ways on the basis of sex , caste,religion. And this is only caused by those mens and womens who are not able to get their mates at proper time or who don't have such behavior and adjusting qualities to live with someone but what's the result like seriously they are hurting others for their own sexual desires. Those mens don't qualify to be called men's because they don't have guts to adjust or behave properly or impress any girl , they better should be called 'na mard'. And yes yes yes , talking about mentality of the society oof!! seriously they judge a girl's clothes for any mischief done to them , okay even to some point we consider there this perspective (firstly it is meaningless to consider but still) , what about those small teen girls or even new borns who were treated like hell , what they never deserved , like men's don't have control on there eyes or on themselves . Those parents who never taught there sons how to behave how to respect girls have this kind of mentality of judging girl's on the basis of clothes , I ask why why these mens have such sexually desireful eyes and bodies that don't have control on themselves and trying to blame girls.In a country like India girls should have this much respect that even if a girl walks naked in a street she doesn't have a fear of getting bad touches or bad views , but yeah we live in a country full of humanity less humans. Section 53A of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Indian law lays down certain provisions for medical examination of the accused.Section 164A of the Code of Criminal Procedure deals with the medical examination of the victim.The revised statutes of 2013 Indian law, in section 376A, mandates minimum punishment in certain cases. For instance, if the sexual assault inflicts an injury which causes death or causes the victim to be in a persistent vegetative state.Section 357 B in the Code of Criminal Procedure. Death penalty for the most extreme rape cases is specified.These all are some sections for the punishment of rape victims.There are alot of implementations by the Indian govt but still the rapists or 'namards' are not at all scared of death penalties because most of them belong to levish families or some party workes ......So yes corruption gives all these rapists a chance to do it again and the govt can't do anything in this, like govt is introducing new laws but implementation is only depended on us citizens and yeah the concerned authorities for example 'Police' shouldn't be biased , if we get true nation lovers in the Indian police then we can think of a country in which everyone has all freedoms , everyone is safe or I should say Everyone is happy.!!! Yes , the Indian govt is trying to decrease the number of rape cases but Indian govt. alone can't do anything everyone has to support and be live in unity and respect their fellow citizens to live peacefully and happily. Some steps taken by the government are POCSO act. that states the protection of children for any sexual offfnce caused to them and also last Saturday our respected Prime Minister Shree Narendra Modi jee declared straight death to any rape criminal for any rape case relate to a girl below 12 years of age . The govt also increased local transport to ensure the safety of girls who are working at late night jobs.A three number helpline 181 is set for any women facing any distress.These are some actions taken by the govt to control rape cases in India but what can govt do if we citizens don't support the govt so let's unite and say no to rape . Jai Hind Jai Bharat.

Atelier Lulua Opinions
This feels a little early, since I haven’t really done the Machina Domain DLC, and that might change some stuff, but I’ve read a bit and it’s just a handful of lore tidbits about Mana and Ficus, so I’m calling it good.  Overall it’s pretty fun!  It’s nice to return to the Arland games after a while, and Lulua definitely delivers on both the nostalgia factor, and having some pretty unique stuff going on all its own.
CHARACTERS The cast wound up being surprisingly strong, all things considered.  Lulua herself is a fun protagonist, being, perhaps expectedly, quite a goober but trying her best.  Her best friend, Eva, is also hilarious at most points in the game, and actually has some incredible moments regarding her birth parents and her response to them reaching out after years of leaving her with an orphanage.  Aurel is...okay, one of the weaker characters.  He’s very serious warrior man, which is odd considering he’s related to Gio.  You’d expect a bit more aloofness to have rubbed off, but no, he takes his role seriously.  There’s Niko, who’s a doofus who’s a pirate but the nice kind because of course you are.
Then there’s Ficus.  I expected to hate Ficus, and initially, very much did.  But wow, what a turnaround.  It took a bit for me to figure out what was going on with him, but you’ve actually met him before.  You wouldn’t know it immediately, but...damn.  Damn what a tie-in that didn’t need tying in, but sure as hell got wrapped up anyway.  Seriously, it takes the story from the ending of Totori and completely turns it on its head.  There are a lot of questions I have about the whole situation, but overall he’s got a strong history.
Then there’s the returning cast.  Rorona and Sterk are as great as ever.  Sterk is having another, different midlife crisis this time, because this poor man has had one every game he’s been in.  Just let the man rest.  There’s Totori and Meruru, who are both wonderful.  Totori honestly feels a lot more sassy this game, and I absolutely love it.  Meruru is just as boisterous as always, and has even taken over learning the sword, and taking the mask, from Gio.  She’s Masked M.  It’s exactly as great as it sounds.  And your final recruitable member...is Piana.  Yeah, I love this recent trend with Atelier games, where the alchemy teacher is not the protagonist from the last game in line.  I expected Meruru to be the teacher, in that same successionary line, but instead it’s Piana, the girl Totori rescued from the Eastern Continent.  Piana’s fun.  She adopted a lot of teaching style from Totori, and is a bit of a mess as a person, but really talented with alchemy.
There are, of course, a ton of returning characters that are not playable as well.  Mimi and Keina are the big ones, and...god I love both of them.  Mimi’s just the right of “developing to be open with her feelings while still not being proficient with them” to make a wonderful character.  Keina has apparently taken over a lot of governance from Rufus, and is just really well liked.  Oh, and Cole’s here, grown up now, and the apprentice of Hagel.  While I’m all for Hagel getting an apprentice, his absence in this game is felt tremendously.  We also have some returning faces, in the form of Wild, Iksel’s protege.
Basically, it’s a solid cast, that...unfortunately misses a few marks for me.  Largely because of who isn’t here.  I get it, we can’t have every single character from all three Arland games show up.  That’d be too much.  But Mimi not being playable is ridiculous, and the fact that Cordelia of all people never shows up is just infuriating.  Why can’t Lulua see her other mom?  Work?  Cordelia’s always been busy with work, but has always made time for her friends.  Don’t give me that shit.
STORY Lulua’s probably the first real story we’ve gotten in the Arland games.  Rorona was just saving her Atelier, Totori was just looking for her mom and tripped into the plot, Meruru was just developing her kingdom.  Lulua actually hints at a lot, and develops things pretty substantially.  At its core, Lulua retains the simplicity of the other Arland games, being primarily about Lulua’s journey to become a great alchemist like her mother.  Beneath the surface, however, we have the mystery of Fellsgalaxen, and how it ties in with the other area we know of: Orthogalaxen.  Turns out, both are related, and there was even a third that fell into disrepair and became the Modis Ruins.  The galaxen arks were basically command centers, where ancient civilizations overlooked machinery they built in order to control the world around them.  For instance, Night’s Domain?  It was apparently an area where a machine was built to control night and day.  When the command center broke down, the machine lost control, and now just perpetually converts the surrounding area to a deeper and deeper night.  There’s also the Fire Domain, which control weather, but went haywire and now just spews fire.  Rule of threes, there’s one more Domain area we actually know of.  Machina Domain.  Now, I didn’t get the DLC for it yet, I’m sure there will be more to talk about from it, but presumably that was something to allow for passage through space, given it’s constantly referred to as a “distortion in space.”
The story develops into Lulua meeting the operator of Fellsgalaxen, a girl named Stia, who is desperately trying to get to the core and fix the problems at hand.  It’s not working, and you need to help her get there before Fellsgalaxen is destroyed, and takes your hometown out with it.
Despite how solid the story is, I feel like there are too many gaps.  We don’t know a ton about the galaxen arks or the different domains or their purposes.  We don’t know...well, much of anything.  Maybe a lot of that is left to the DLC, but even if it is, I do take some issue with needing an additional purchase to make sense of some of your lore.  Still, I absolutely love this, for possibly stupid reasons.  Those reasons largely being around enjoying stories of man vs. nature where man lost, and the new trial being current man vs. past man’s mistakes echoing through eternity.
SETTING Okay, yes, I love the establishment of what the domains and the galaxens are.  I love the added depth they gave to certain areas or bosses, to a degree it almost feels like this game was planned since Rorona (though I’m sure it wasn’t).  It just feels like such a good development of the setting we’ve known and loved all these years.
I will say that I wish Lulua had more unique areas to work with, instead of being just a highlight reel of areas from previous games.  The general scale also looks weird, and kinda packed together compared to previous games, but it doesn’t really detract from anything.
ALCHEMY SYSTEM Not gonna lie, the alchemy system is kind of over-complicated this time around.  There’s 999 quality, again, as well as elemental values for each items.  Different ingredients give different values, leading to different potential effects on the new items.  But wait!  Now there’s also Awakening effects!  Depending on the item used, in certain slots, you can get additional effects!  Sometimes they’re good, sometimes they suck.
The problem is, you’re trying to balance all of these things at once.  the most quality you get out of gathered items is like 230, so 999 quality on items is one hell of a leap.  You basically have to rely on synthesized items, but the items natural to a category don’t always work for the effects you’re after.  So you have to Awaken other items to be part of that category, so you can have better effects, all while monitoring the absurd quality level and traits you’re passing on.  Oh, and speaking of traits?  All the best ones are locked behind specific traits being combined, and not in the way you think.  See, to get the maximum of, say, Stat boosting traits, you don’t just mix together two of the low level ones, like Stat Boost and Stats Mega Charge.  No, you have to combine Stats Mega Charge with a rare trait you only get from bosses or rewards from S-rank battle quests, like Awakening Agent, Deadly Art, or Resonant Agent, to combine with the highest tier you can make naturally, and upgrade into the next form.  It can be a little bit frustrating, and frankly?  I had to shift difficulty down to Easy just to get started.  Without having a good spread, you can’t take the S-rank bosses easily, and then you can’t really get the effects.  And you do need the effects.  The final bosses are pretty tough without them.
TP (formerly Cost) for an item isn’t great.  It caps naturally at 60, increasing by 5 for each 5 levels you grow in alchemy, but the TP increasing skills actually stack this time, so it’s not too hard to get what you need, as long as you’re passing the highest tier of this skill on to everything you make.
BATTLE SYSTEM Battle system can also be frustrating.  Basically, there are two issues I take with this game: Stun, and Support Attacks.
Stun is obvious.  Pretty sure I’ve complained of it before, and will do so until the end of time.  Stun sucks.  It’s either a problem where you’re getting stunned every two hits, or you’ve managed to perfectly stunlock an enemy who is no longer allowed to move.  It takes twice as many hits to Stun an enemy once they recover, but you only really need it to land once.  Stun is only gained from skill attacks, which means it’s really easy for the enemy to just spam those and stun you.  God forbid they have something that both has high stun value and knockback.  You may as well turn the game off if the enemy gets to act at all.
And that’s where Support Attacks are annoying.  You can control them, but only in the sense that you can determine who to put on the back line to allow the follow-up.  Not all follow-up attacks activate off of the same frontline skills, so it’s more about matching to your specific playstyle than anything.  The problem is, you have no control over when they go off, or if they go off.  They’re not all guaranteed.  So, let’s say an enemy isn’t stunned, but needs two hits to be stunned, after your skill was used.  Piana may follow up with her two support attacks.  May.  If she hits with one, the enemy gets their turn, and you might be fucked.  If she gets both, great!  But this also works in reverse.  Let’s say you know full well that an enemy needs only one hit to be stunned.  Tough shit, Piana is guaranteed to follow up with one of her skills, and that’s going to remove stun so the enemy gets to act anyway.  Stun is just annoying.  It’s hard to control for, and you don’t really get a chance to act on it most of the time.  Without these two parts, I think the game could be fine with a bit of rebalancing.  As it stands, bosses all felt either way overpowered because taking a hit meant being stun locked forever, or were a cakewalk because equipment was all at its optimal and nothing could stand against you.  You could argue that’s just the Atelier Experience, but I have a hard time saying that this was all that much fun, considering I never once touched my items.  I got through everything on stats alone, and that...doesn’t feel like the best thing.
OTHER MECHANICS Exploration items exist in this game, and it’s...kinda weird?  You need specific bombs for mining now, and they come at different destruction levels, such that some bombs won’t even dent certain rocks, and it’s not clear which are which.  Pickaxe has the same issue, mostly being unable to break things without its max destruction value, which is pretty low.  A lot of exploration items feel redundant or kinda useless, like the Wind God’s Bag or Traveling Shoes (there’s no time limit, why do I need these?), but some are hyper-vital, like the key.  It’s really just about picking the best options for you.  So in my case, it was mostly mining bombs.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS I’m gonna echo what I said about Lydie and Suelle: one of the things I never took into account before was graphics.  I think people who bitch about graphics needing to be top-tier are ridiculous.  This game has all sorts of visual issues, but it does nothing to detract from the charm of the game.  Rather, what they choose to use graphics for has a lot of impact.  Instead of the relatively flat affect of some previous games, characters have gotten really dynamic in their expressions, poses, and general actions, and it’s frankly fantastic.  It adds a layer of comedy to the games that really complements the series’ general tone.
Also, please, please watch the Lulua and Sterk armwrestling bit.  I promise it will be the best thing you’ve watched all day.
FINAL THOUGHTS Atelier Lulua is a fantastic game that, I think, really succeeds at what it attempts to do.  It’s a fun nostalgia trip through Arland, with a lot of great returning cast members, and new developments for characters and setting that are really fun to experience.  If you’ve played the Arland games and are a fan, absolutely check Lulua out.  If you haven’t...consider trying out Rorona.  You really do need to have background knowledge of the Arland games to appreciate Lulua to the fullest.  But once you have that knowledge, it’s definitely worth playing.

Hasan Minhaj, an Indian Muslim, calling out Indian nationalism for its shit treatment of religious minorities, is not Hinduphobia.
yeah, that’s what i said on twitter? i genuinely do not understand what some ppl are talking about? nothing about that episode was problematic or hinduphobic. i was raised in the hindu religion and have encountered my fair share of hinduphobia over the years, and everything he said was fine. bjp hindu nationalism is NOT hinduism in my book. hasan was just pointing out actual facts that ppl would know if they bothered to educate themselves only a tiny bit on indian politics. 
the blog i talked about in my post seems to be v worked up on the topic of (valid in my view) questions about congresswoman tulsi gabbard’s ties to hindu nationalists including modi-the blog is v pro tulsi’s bid for president and as a result are assuming anyone she associates with are good ppl; so they’re shutting down any critique of tulsi as hinduphobia. somewhere along the line, this knee-jerk tulsi supporter must have incorrectly identified hasan minhaj’s indian election segment as hinduphobia b/c anyone who ms gabbard associates with must be good ppl ofc! at least that’s what i think is happening, but it’s hard to tell because the blog has yet to say what hasan did that was so “hinduphobic”.  
 i actually may unfollow the blog in question, who i’ve followed for many years btw, because this whole incident is just…twisting hasan’s words in a way that makes my blood boil. as a hindu desi, i can tell you that hasan got everything right in that segment, and a nominally “progressive” blog should do some research before weighing in on topics they clearly do not understand.

Bitch she supports Assad and Putin who are literally fucking killing people and refused to say that Assad launched a chemical attack on his own people which, spoiler alert, HE FUCKING DID.
Also did you see the part where she’s ENDORSED BY DAVID FUCKING DUKE AND RICHARD FUCKING SPENCER?!?! DO YOU KNOW WHO THEY ARE?!?! DAVID DUKE WAS A FUCKING KKK GRANDWIZARD AND RICHARD SPENCER IS THE FUCKING FATHER OF THE CURRENT NEO-NAZI MOVEMENT! WHY THE FUCK DO YOU THINK PEOPLE LIKE THEM WOULD BE SUPPORTING HER?!?!
Also I love how you brought up Hillary without me saying fucking anything but SINCE YOU MENTIONED IT Hillary never SUPPORTED A FUCKING CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO DEFINE MARRIAGE AS BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN WHICH, SPOILER ALERT, TULSI FUCKING DID.
“As Democrats, we should be representing the views of the people, not a small number of homosexual extremists,” she said at the time. (x)
WHAT A FUCKING PROGRESSIVE WOW SO GREAT
Also in 2015 she stated that HER PERSONAL VIEWS ON HOMOSEXUALITY HAD NOT CHANGED! A fucking stark contrast to Hillary who OPENLY SUPPORTED SAN FRANCISCO LEGALIZING GAY MARRIAGE IN 2004
“Oh I don’t know anything about her foreign policy” WELL STRAP THE FUCK IN BECAUSE IT’S FUCKING TERRIFYING
She openly supports and accept the endorsement of Prime Minister Modi in India who openly talks about making Muslims and Christians second class citizens. 
She’s also in a fucking cult so that’s fun.
She was also constantly on Fox News while Obama was President because she was right with the right wing fucks on calling on the President to basically declare war on Muslims. 
So yeah. Fuck her. But I LOVE that you’re pulling the race card because I knew that was exactly what was going to happen. “Oh you don’t like her because she’s brown you’re racist”
NO I DON’T LIKE HER BECAUSE SHE’S A HOMOPHOBIC, ISLAMOPHOBIC FUCK WHO’S ENDORSED BY NAZI’S AND SUPPORTS FASCIST REGIMES!

EBSS 9/7 ~ Underwhelming
So, to talk about the 'scene' for today where Pooja meets the Mittals in their new 'small' house. It was like watching Congress v/s BJP, where the Mittals are the Congress party, Pooja is Modi and the Mittal house and company, is the country. Just like Modi ji was a chai waala who now travels the world, wears his name embosses on his suits, and taunts the Congress about being reduced to nothing, Pooja also taunts the Mittals about their house and state.
If this was not enough, Kabir taunts her with how he is 'khandaani rayeez', just like the Congress is the dynastic party which ruled for years.
In between, Mittal or Sharma industries (just like how our schemes have changed from Jawaharlal Nehru to Pradhan Mantri), is like the country over which they are fighting. Right now Modi/Pooja is in power, and Kabir/Congress is going to take it back.
Oh, yeah we have a RaGa also, in Dhruv. Just like RaGa resigned, Dhruv also spends his time in Majnu bar
So now we have a battle between feudal rich and nouveau riche over the Mittal property. Like landlords squabbling with merchant class in eighteenth century England. How Victorian!
On a serious note, the whole scene irritated me to core. I really love ShreZain as actors and cannot see them turn into characters I despise. Their acting and chemistry deserves better.
The scene could have been ten times better, if Pooja had taunted the Mittals about how they made her homeless and now its gratifying to see them living in a rented apartment. Kabir could have responded that she is punishing everybody for the act of one, and self-destructing herself.
This moral conflict could have been much better, than whatever artificial conflict they are creating here.
If I want to watch a property feud, I can go to the court, I don't need to watch tv. The writers, in their quick attempt to create conflict are forgetting that the biggest motivation for Pooja's actions is revenge and not usurping wealth. She is Pooja, not Komonika or Svetlana.
What I liked was Pooja's scene with Amma. Amma is the best and most consistent character of this show. She advises Pooja not to get into faltu ka fasaad with Kabir. I like Pooja when she is with Amma. She behaves like herself. She tells her that she is employing Kabir because she knows he's trying to defeat her. She has accepted the challenge. Also, a small scene I liked, was Pooja telling Amma that she laid out all food for Rani. I was thanking God, chalo at least, they retained this trait, because Pooja was never big on lavish feasts, she preferred her Amma's handmade food.
My problem with Pooja's characterization is whenever she is opposite Kabir, she starts taunting about being rich and behaves arrogantly and classist. IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.
For Pooja, who has seen in poverty, taunting someone else about poverty doesn't make sense. And because of Kabir, she is rude to other workers also, as they side with him. The workers being devotees of PK also doesn't make sense to me.
This whole issue is artificially created because the writers want to justify Kabir's actions against her, to show that she is an arrogant brat and Kabir is the messiah of the masses.
Please, this is not 1980's. I'm done with the capitalist v/s socialist debate.
Coming to Mittals now. Again Chaachi and Suman, behaving that they are pure souls, like seriously, Pooja reminded them in the 50th episode that how they supported PK in their silence, and yet they have the gall to argue her? Let alone, face her?
Also, Kabir, Dhruv and Jai, do not care at all that PK killed her father and humiliated him, cheated hundreds of people with false medicine? They are all angry at Pooja for making them homeless.
Murder v/s Fraud, which one is bigger?
Let me accept that they don't understand the gravity of what PK did, otherwise nothing makes sense. Kabir saying he wants back his house and company, okay, he wants to make her pay for what she did to his family, fine. But Suman is listening to all this and nodding her head. I'm like woman, YOU are responsible, accept it at least to your son, that you and PK and others brought this upon yourself.
Dadaji, Suman and Chaachi are special kind of dheet. I am actually angry that Pooja didn't send them to prison too.
But the scene where Kabir says (after Dhruv leaves) that he has to take revenge for what Pooja did to Dhruv, that made sense to me. As a brother, he would want to avenge his brother's humiliation, and Dhruv (and Jai and Sonali) were innocent.
All in all, what I am saying is that this revenge over property is hella flimsy.
I guess the producers got a note from Sitara saying that revamp the show to make it about 'tashan' between Pooja and Kabir. And the makers, not knowing what to do, started copying Laadla.
It doesn't make sense for Pooja's character to be a brat, and it doesn't make sense for Kabir to take revenge, when he had a strong ethical core, and knew that his family is haraami.
It would have made more sense for Pooja to try and make the Mittals miserable, and Kabir protecting his family, but explaining Pooja that revenge is futile and she will not get peace with this.
That would have made for a more interesting conflict. This 'tashan' ain't working for me.
But I hope the trps rise, so that the makers can relax a bit and get the script back on track (like they did after the bahu v/s bahu debacle)

A Warrior’s Life
TITLE: A Warrior’s Life
CHAPTER NO./ONE SHOT: Chapter One Hundred and Nine
AUTHOR: wolfpawn ORIGINAL IMAGINE: Imagine Viking Loki coming to your village, raiding, and pillaging, before deciding there is something about you that intrigues him and deciding to take you back to Asgard with him. There, you are forced to learn a new life and language, and though you hate what has happened to you, you learn that Loki is not as bad as you think.
RATING: Mature
NOTES: Good news those of you sending me hate, this is the last chapter. To those of you that have been supportive and nice throughout this, thank you so much and I hope you enjoyed it.  
Children Ages
Nafi (20) Anna (18) Vali (15) Danu and Kushtrim (14) Einar (7)  
SEVEN YEARS LATER
‘I hate him, I want him castrated.’ Maebh groaned as she felt the next contraction start.
‘You said that last time.’ Sif dismissed as she pressed a cloth to Maebh’s forehead.
‘I mean it this time.’
‘You said that too,’ She laughed. ‘So what was the cause of this then?’
‘Thodin’s marriage, too much mead.’ She groaned.
‘Well, it is renowned for assisting in fertility.’ Sif shrugged as she helped Maebh through the contraction. ‘I thought you said you could not lay with him any longer.’
‘It just happened.’
‘And no pain?’
‘Not that I can remember. This baby better not be like Einar.’
‘You are big.’
‘Do not say such things.’ Maebh pleaded.
‘It will be here soon. I am thinking a girl.’
‘Danu would love that.’
‘She has been praying to Freya for it.’
‘She is fourteen, they are so far apart.’
‘Maebh, there is Nafi, Vali, Kushtrim and Einar, there was also Liulf, that is five boys in total and her only sister taken from her, she just does not want to be the lone girl.’
‘Danu was the Mother Goddess, she commanded mostly men.’
‘Well mostly is not all, Danu does not want to be the only girl.’
‘I cannot control these things.’
‘Well act like you do and hope for a girl.’ Sif suggested.
‘I am too old for this. No more.’
‘Yeah, I heard that before.’
‘How did you stay at three?’
‘I have no idea, it just happened.’ Sif did not know, she and Thor continued their marriage as before, but she had not conceived again after Modi. ‘Thank the Norns.’ Sif walked to the door. ‘Danu?’ The girl came to the door. ‘You need to get everything ready.’
‘Already do.’ She smiled, bringing everything into view.
‘I hate you right now.’ Maebh growled at Sif.
‘Mother, if you ever plan on having me be interested in being a wife, you are not helping the idea of me wanting children.’ Danu pointed out.
‘Do not do it, it is a trick, keep away from men.’ Maebh warned her.
‘Listen to your mother.’ Loki called from the other room.
‘Shut up you, this is your fault.’ Maebh snarled.
‘You were not exactly declining my advances.’
‘I am going to kill him.’ Maebh tried to rise from the bed, but Danu and Sif pushed her back down. ‘Let me at him.’
‘After you get this baby out.’ Sif promised.
‘No, because I will be too content to do it then.’
‘No, you are not far from needing to push, you cannot be running around after a fleeing husband.’ Sif informed her.
‘Fine, but only because I can feel the baby beginning to press down.’ Maebh conceded as she felt her body ready for what was needed of it. For all her jesting, Maebh was concerned at the damage her body was about to endure. She had been somewhat shocked when, after their night of unplanned passion, she felt no pain, but she refused to believe that she would get away without terrible injury after a birth. She could only wait and hope that it would not be so bad. ‘I take it the healer is less than pleased.’
‘She seems to think you are the worst sort of patient, you did not heed her warnings.’
‘It was not planned.’ Maebh inhaled deeply. ‘I think we are there.’
Sif checked. ‘Yes, next one, you will be able to start.’
‘This is better than a cold room in a foreign land.’ Danu jested as she looked at her mother.
‘Yes. you do not have to be here.’
‘I want to help. I did okay with Einar.’
‘You did.’ Maebh grimace as she felt her body ready to begin another contraction.
‘Mother, perhaps you need to consider not having any more children.’
‘Danu, your mother has been saying that since after you and Kushtrim, trust me, if she could prevent it happening, she would have done so way before now.’ Sif laughed.
‘But….you can stop it, by not doing things.’ Danu stated plainly having long been told by her mother how children came to be.
‘Yes, if you can stop doing those things, that is the issue.’ Sif laughed. ‘You cannot stop love.’
‘Arranged marriage?’ Maebh suggested playfully, laughing at the horrified look on Danu’s face. ‘Never. Do what right for you, my beautiful….Ah!’ Maebh’s teeth clenched together as the baby began to make its way down the birth canal.
‘Push, Mother.’ Danu pleaded, taking her mother’s hand. ‘I have another brother to welcome.’ She smiled.
*
Nafi sighed with relief as the coast of Asgard came into view. ‘Anna.’ He nudged his wife gently to get her to wake. ‘We are here.’
‘Thank goodness.’ She rubbed her eyes. ‘I cannot remember this journey being this long.’
‘It does seem longer this time, I agree.’ Nafi conceded, making sure that they were still warmly wrapped in their pelts. ‘We will be there very soon though.’ He rubbed her arm.
As they got closer, Nafi glanced at the shoreline and grinned as he focused more on it. He watched as two figures on horseback cantering along the water’s edge. He smiled as they came to the dock at the same time as the boat docked. ‘How is that boat taking you, you never seem to cease growing, Anna, you poor thing.’
‘You finally grew a bit, I was getting worried you were taking Mother’s height.’ Nafi chuckled as he stepped off the boat, embracing his brother tightly, clapping his back. ‘I have not seen you in too long, how are you, Brother?’
‘All the better for seeing you. What brings you here?’
‘Just came to see my family. I hear my idiot younger brother convinced some poor creature to marry him.’
‘Yes, that rumour is indeed going around the realm. I heard my older brother had some news also.’ Vali joked.
‘I do not know what you are talking about.’ Nafi grinned.
‘Not what we hear, is it Kush?’ Vali looked around grinning.
‘Nah, we heard different.’ He grinned, stepping forward and hugging his brother. ‘You are built like an ox.’ Kushtrim commented. ‘Anna, how can you even fit in a bed with him?’
‘I have to sleep sideways.’ She laughed as Vali aided her out of the boat. ‘Einar will be broader, I think.’
‘Without a doubt, he has grown since your last visit, you will not believe it. He will be broader than Grandfather.’
‘Is that possible? Were it not for Danu being the one to assist Mother with the birth in a small room on Midgard, I would think it the wrong baby.’ Nafi stated.
‘I think the only reason people do not think he is not Father’s is his eyes and hair being identical.’ Kushtrim added.
‘That; and could you imagine the idiot to imply Mother would stray from Father?’ Vali commented.
‘I think Mother would flay them.’ Nafi nodded.
‘At the very least.’ Anna agreed.
They walked through the village before making their way to Thor’s. ‘Father, guess who is here.’ Kushtrim called out. A moment later, a small, burly built boy came out of the dwelling and looked at them. ‘Einar, do you know who this is?’
‘Anna!’ Einar rushed over to her, hugging her tightly. ‘Hi, Nafi.’ He stated dismissively as he cuddled Anna.
‘I am only your brother.’ Nafi grumbled.
‘But he loves Anna.’ Vali laughed. ‘Cannot say I blame him, she has doted on him since Mother brought him back from Midgard.’
‘Yeah, that is true.’ Nafi conceded. When he turned slightly, he smiled. ‘Hello, Father.’
‘My son.’ Loki embraced him tightly. ‘How are you? You did not tell us you were coming, it is so good to see you.’
‘We thought we would come and say hello, I hope you do not mind.’
‘Never, you are always welcome home, you know this.’ Loki smiled. ‘Hello, Anna. I see you are commandeered once more.’
‘By my second favourite Lokison.’ She smiled as she looked back at Einar.
‘Where is Mother?’
‘At home, looking after your grandmother, she and Danu are no doubt rushing around dealing with things.’
‘Why so?’
Well, you recall Leah?’ Nafi nodded. ‘She wed Heimdall.’
‘About time.’
Loki smiled and nodded back at his son. Leah and Heimdall spent the best part of the previous few years tiptoeing around things, but with Maebh losing her patience one day, she quite literally came right out and dealt with it, leading to a conversation on it, much to everyone’s surprise. Leah had been made terrified of childbirth and carrying as a result of her past trauma, something Heimdall completely understood and sympathised with, and with the loss of his wife and children to the disease, and with one healthy daughter, he was okay with not having any more children, so with that in the open, the pair were content and a match made. Heimdall once more had a stable home for his daughter as well as a very loving stepmother for her and the affections of a woman who clearly was happy by his side, something he praised the Norns for.
‘So who is helping mother?’
‘A young enough woman, Nia, she is good but still learning. Danu and your mother are helping her get settled.’ Loki explained. ‘We will take the cart back, it will be quicker.’
‘Is Uncle Thor not around?’
‘No, he is gone hunting with Thodin and Modi, they will be back in a few days. I had to deal with an issue in his absence there.’ Loki rolled his eyes. ‘You know how it is. How is Ásvaldr?’
They got back to the house soon enough, and with the horses being cooled by the farmhands, they entered the dwelling. ‘I think you brought home some stragglers.’ Danu laughed at seeing her oldest brother. ‘Hello.’ She hugged him tightly.
‘You literally are Father’s image, you know that, right?’
‘I would have been a wonderful looking woman.’ Loki jested as he looked at his daughter.
‘You could not exude the same air as I do Father, so you would not be as incredible.’ She laughed.
‘No, you get that from your mother.’
‘Where is she, and Grandmother?’ Nafi asked.
‘I am right here.’ Nafi turned to see Frigga sitting by the fire. ‘Hello.’
‘Grandmother, how are you?’ Nafi was shocked to see how old his grandmother was becoming.
‘All the better for seeing you, my handsome boy.’ She gently kissed his cheek. ‘How are you?’
‘So happy to see you all.’ He smiled.
‘Good.’
‘And Mother?’
‘She is sleeping, she had a long night.’ Loki explained. Nafi looked to his father worriedly. ‘You were not told?’
‘Told what?’
‘What do you think?’ Kushtrim laughed.
‘I….’ Nafi looked amongst them. ‘But Mother cannot….’
‘Should not, would have been the correct term.’ Frigga scoffed eyeing her son in a scolding manner.
Nafi looked to his father, who shrugged unapologetically. ‘So I have another brother?’
‘Why did everyone assume another boy?’ Loki asked.
‘He is not wrong though, is he?’ Vali laughed.
‘Another….really?’
Loki smiled and walked to the bedroom, coming back a moment later with a small baby, no more than a few months old. ‘Nafi, this is Vidar.’
‘Vidar.’ Nafi studied his new youngest brother. ‘He looks more like Mother.’
‘He does.’ Loki conceded. ‘I think he will be like Liulf.’
‘Father, I fear I am at risk of not remembering how many brothers I have.’ Nafi laughed.
‘How do you think I feel?’ Loki retorted.
‘Loki?’
‘In the living area, Dear.’
‘Did I hear…?’ Maebh looked out of the room.
‘Hello, Mother.’
‘How big you are getting.’ Maebh smiled at him. ‘You are a formidable man.’
‘Size has nothing to do with such things, you are so small and yet feared by so many.’
‘Well, I am apparently the Goddess of War and Death.’ She scoffed.
‘And procreation it would seem.’ He pointed to his new brother.
‘Yes. I blame your father.’
‘She tried to get up and kill him when she was in labour, it was hilarious.’ Danu laughed.
‘Danu, stop reminding her.’ Her father pleaded.
Maebh for her part rolled her eyes. ‘You must be hungry, come, let us get you all fed.’
‘We are really going to need a bigger table.’ Vali stated.
‘Well you are moving out soon, so that is a help.’ Kushtrim commented.
‘I not moving anywhere, we are staying here, I asked Mother and Father.’
‘Wait, where are you going to fit?’
‘You and Einar in one room, me and Sigrunn in our room, Mother and Father in theirs with whatever number of more children they decide to bestow on Asgard and Grandmother and Danu in their room.’ Vali shrugged.
‘What about when Brienne and I get married?’
‘You can leave, no one is stopping you.’ Danu snarked, Vali and Einar laughing with her.
‘Behave.’ Their father reprimanded. ‘Our old home, the one from when there was only Nafi, will be repaired and readied to include a small workplace for you.’ Loki informed Kushtrim.
‘My own….?’ Kushtrim stared at his father in disbelief, Loki nodded. ‘I…’
Kushtrim’s skills as a fighter were fairly good. He was well able to defend and attack, but he did not have the heart. Something he feared his parents disowning him for, but they, to his shock, seemed to love him more for it, showing him that his own traits, though not similar to theirs, were as admirable in their eyes.
‘Yes, Heimdall insisted on it also and has aided in its construction. After all, a good workshop for you is a good income for you and Brienne.’ Maebh smiled.
‘I….Thank you.’ Kushtrim had tears in his eyes as he took in what his parents were doing for him, to ensure him a good life.
‘It is our duty as your parents to help however we can so that you can look after your own families in years to come. Just as Mother aided me.’ Loki looked fondly to Frigga, who sat at the head of the table.
‘Your father should have done more.’
‘He came through when it mattered.’ Loki acknowledged. ‘Look at this home, look how many children it has raised and is still raising.’ He smiled, taking Vidar so Maebh could eat. ‘We are blessed.’
‘Or cursed.’ Vali joked.
‘Well, it is odd.’ Maebh laughed. ‘Vidar is younger than his niece.’
Loki looked at the little girl sitting on his oldest son’s lap. At just coming to a year old she was indeed older than her uncle. ‘It is unusual, becoming a father again after becoming a grandfather.’ He grinned. Vidar began to yawn. ‘I better put this boy to bed.’ He walked away from the table. ‘Will I…?’
‘Please.’ Maebh smiled. ‘Has she settled more now?’
‘Well, the journey over with her was harder this time, last time she just slept, this time she is far more interested.’ Nafi looked down at his daughter, who was chewing at her fist. ‘How do you do it with so many. Vali, Danu and Kustrim were all in one year.’
‘You adapt.’ Maebh smiled. ‘She is growing well.’
‘Yes.’ Loki came back and gently sat down again, cradling the baby in his arms. ‘She is looking more like you now, Anna.’
‘She is, though she has Nafi’s hair, it sticks out everywhere.’
‘At least she has hair.’ Loki laughed, indicating to the baby in his arms.
‘But…’ Nafi pointed to the baby. ‘Vidar….’
‘Vidar has hair, Freya has none.’ Danu smiled.
‘Who in the realms is Freya?’ Nafi asked, utterly confused.
‘Our sister.’ Vali informed him.
‘Wait, what?’
‘Mother can only have girls if she has a boy at the same time.’ Einar stated sagely as he stole some of Vali’s food while his older brother looked at Nafi, awaiting his reaction.
‘I have….oh Norns.’ Nafi shook his head. ‘There are two? What...How….?’ Loki simply shrugged. ‘How do you not know, you did it?’
‘You cannot control certain aspects of these things.’
‘I give up. I just...now Vali is getting married and wait and see, he will have a child and you two will assume that is your cue to have more.’
‘How do you think we feel, we thought there would be no more, then not only is there one, but I am forced to birth two, again!’
He looked at his little sister, who frowned at the large built man giving out across from her. ‘She even has Mother’s frown. At least she is well named.’ She gave him a bemused look. ‘I am going to come home to more children next time, I know it.’
‘No promises.’ Loki grinned, looking to Maebh, who was looking as though she was contemplating actually castrating him, but the look in her eye was one of love. Her look telling him that for all their trials and tribulations, they would persevere together, whatever would come.

Story 224: On the Ends of Goods and Evils
NOTE: This one is pretty shitty, but it’s almost midnight so I’m posting it.
The last feed went out, leaving the world outside a horrific mystery.  The harsh blue light from the screen that was now showing only a 'NO INPUT' message soon faded as Gerald turned everything off, forever.  The monitoring room was done.  He thought he could already tell a difference.  He was certain that now, a month after the bombs began to fall, they were finally alone.  All alone.
Just the eight of them here below, and death up above.
Gerald climbed up the ladder to the stasis room, where twelve shining pods lay waiting.  More than enough to fit them, if they all worked.  Instead the spares had already been gutted for parts, hollow under that shining facade.  Out of the dozen stasis pods, only one was fully functional.  Gerald felt cheated.  He had contributed the money, back when money meant anything.  That should have been enough.  But now they wanted him to clean sewage recyclers and scrape algae out of the dehumidifier.  Things he shouldn't have to do not only because of his monetary gift but because they should have all been in stasis pods by now instead of listening to Karen's 'plan B' for surviving and building an outpost above ground once things "calmed down".
Gerald knew planning for the future was idiotic.  There was no future, up there - just a painful radioactive death.  He should have been in the one working pod, plunged forever into a virtual reality paradise.  He had modeled it - well, had it modeled - after the house he grew up in.  He had grown up spending days lounging in his father's library, and now in the virtual world it would be ten times as large.  The life support would link with his neural implants and after a few months his body would die and his mind would be inside the machine.  That library could entertain him for a hundred years or more, and then maybe he would even dive into the less cerebral realm of television and movies.
But they wouldn't let him.
"We need every set of hands," Karen would say.  While Kylie and Jason worked on fixing the other seven pods he had persuaded Ian to keep putting finishing touches on Gerald's one working pod.  But now... he wondered if that was even the right choice.  What would stop one of the others from using it, to escape Karen's dictatorship?  They all seemed eager to help, but Gerald knew that couldn't be the case.  They must all feel the death lurking above them, surely one of them would soon snap and take his rightful place in that dream world.
There was a clanking on the ladder, and Ian came into view. "I was just thinking about you," Gerald said, "I wanted to ask you... is the simulation ready?  Would I be able to go in now?" Ian rested his arms on the floor around the ladder.  "Um.  Yeah, sure.  Absolutely.  I mean, I've just been tweaking things, it's ready to go.  I just have to... um.  Hey, why are you asking?  Didn't we agree we'd go together or not at all?  You know Karen says -" Gerald stomped on Ian's head, sending him down the ladder.
He ignored the yelling, as he fastened the hatch.  The stasis room was built to be the most secure spot in the bunker, and while they might eventually break in it would be too late to betray him.  Gerald suspected Karen would even convince the rest to just leave him alone, so she could push them harder towards her insane dream of moving back to the surface.  It had only been a month, the last of the bombs were still falling.  She would be trapped for her whole life with that stupid, unreachable dream.
Gerald closed the lid of the pod over himself, and felt his implants engage.
The library looked amazing.  It even smelled right.  Positioning the wide chair by the window, he went to pick out a book.  Grabbing one at random - after all, he would eventually read them all -  he sat down to begin his new lifetime.
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat."
That couldn't be right.  He put down the book, pulled another from the shelf.  "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..."  Another.  "Lorem ipsum..." Another.  And another.
Fine, Gerald thought.  There was a help system, in the form of a butler.  He rang the small golden bell on the end table, and a dignified man in a severe suit walked in. "I need to adjust the language settings, I think." "Sed ut perspiciatis, unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam eaque ipsa, quae ab illo inventore veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt, explicabo." "English.  Set everything to English." "Nemo enim ipsam voluptatem, quia voluptas sit, aspernatur aut odit aut fugit, sed quia consequuntur magni dolores eos, qui ratione voluptatem sequi nesciunt, neque porro quisquam est, qui dolorem ipsum, quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit, sed quia non numquam eius modi tempora incidunt, ut labore et dolore magnam aliquam quaerat voluptatem." "No, no, no.  Just... go.  Get out."
The butler didn't move.  Gerald stormed past him and into the media room.  He turned on the television, and was confronted with a menu of Lorem Ipsum, Lorem Ipsum, Lorem Ipsum.  The computer.  A cookbook in the kitchen.  A droning voice on the radio. "Ian!  Very funny, Ian!" But it wasn't funny.  As the cold shock of the situation started to fade to numbness, he thought back and reassessed the last few weeks.  Gerald had to admit that he might have been a bit hasty.  Possibly there had been some psychological side effects from living in a bunker for a month watching the world end.  And just maybe he shouldn't have assaulted Ian before he was totally done.  Or, he grudgingly thought, at all.  But he had gotten his wish.  After a fashion.  Freedom from the lurking specter of death.  Trapped for his whole life with this stupid, unreachable dream.
Gerald fished around until he found a ream of blank paper in a drawer.  He took a pen from the jar on the desk, and sat down to refill the library.

Omegle Tales
Thanks Kartik for A2A
Qurantine proved to be the the the reason which made Omegle, once again the go to site for bored ones around the globe.
Warwrick Maths Professor- I expected this guy to be some teenage nerd, it’s not that common to find people with interest as ‘maths’. I opened up with Maths is gay, this guy didn’t say anything. I tired to seem smart by throwing some words like ‘you know complex analysis and group thory huh’, fella replied with ‘lol, who doesn’t’.
Later he mentioned he’s a professor at Warwrick University, he was realy into maths and entered college when he was just 17 (I did the same but I’m dumb). Ahter this basic introduction we talked about 3Blue1Brown, Numberphile, ZachStar (Major Prep) and other similar ones. Especially about 3Blue1brown’s video in which he plots the graph of COVID-19, algorithm and his approach.
Later he explained a better algorithm, he helped his students to design at University. I didn’t get most the things he was talking about but I kept humming along, pretended like it was obvious ‘yeah, that one is better hmmm’.
I got bewildered in buzzwords which I dropped earilier to look not complete outsider from the mathematical realm.
In the end he asked ‘You wanna keep in touch?’
Damn, that was a shit load of ego boost.
We talk about Modi on discord sometimes (okay, once).
E-Thot
After getting tired of bots spamming me to join their discord servers and “M27 horny” incel fellas, I changed my interest tags and bumped into this fellow Indian warrior who was in search of SeXtiNg. Then I reavealed that I trolled him becuase he was getting virtual BJ from a straight guy. #Mr.Prankster
This guy could feel the resentment and fear of dying virgin from my replies, he turned out to be omegle equavalent of Actor Varun Pruthi for me.
After some deep conversations like asking about my dick size and reason for being virgin, he gave me a proposal I couldn’t turn down. He turned sherlock mode on and started planning how we would execute this mission impossible 7.
It was time to explore my feminine side, I became his bi-sexual friend and he added me into a group chat and introduced me to this nymphomaniac. The dots started to connect, everything was connected, my dick size became my identity.
Objectification of women was an alien concept for me but now it wasn’t.
The first text popped up in chat ‘Do you suck a lot of dicks?’
Yup, that’s how the mafia works. I tried to ignore gay vibes and defended my masculinity by proclaiming myself as “Top”, followed by ‘squiddle my diddle’ to elucidate my intentions about what I was looking for.
I tried to act like a player and DM’d her, expecting some lame reply. Still I don’tknow why but she started speaking french, I mean c’mon. I can’t even speak english properly and you are flaunting your french. But I didn’t say anything, she was enjoying pussy-privillage.
Hardly two minutes passed and she sent ‘show me’.
Okay, that was quick, even our Indian boys don’t ask for bob-pics this much fast. *Incoming video call* adrenaline and cortisol nibbas rushed into blood, anxity bar was full . What if there’s some guy just trolling me or it’s a scam where she’ll record and blackmail me. I’m aware that no girl would want my nudes when they have unlimited supply of unsolicited dick pics but still I was scared and declined the call.
Now my friend cum pimp messaged and assured that there’s nothing sketchy. I was determined to see those majestic boobies for which I was lured into all this
I muster up the courage and call her and surprisingly she picked up immediatly, A dark screen shows up, my speculations were about to be the reality, I was sure that now someone from other side will say ‘chutiya bnaya’ laughingly and flash his penis before hanging up the call.
I had a sigh of relief when I heard her. Just like that Naughty America intro, her whispring voice ran a wave euphoric tingling in my whole body, the stress which was piled up earlier vanished. It was nothing less than ASMR voice, never thought my name could sound this much sexy.
She said: Show me now.
I was confused for a moment, show what? I wasn’t a salesmen who will just reach out to his bag and grab a full fledged erect penis to show her. I mean yeah, we go around popping random boners at un-expected places but this was just way too fast.
Things don’t work like this, at least mine doesn’t.
After explaining her about my need of visual stimulation to raise the bar for her, we did something (not going to explain).
As I explained earlier, she had a luscious voice, everything she said was arousing and surely it served its purpose. But she also wanted me to do dirty talk and *moan*.
So here I was saying Oh yeah (….) in my Punjabi accent which sounded something like “O jeh, phakk it bebi”.
Somehow she was okay with it and later swithched to Hindi for obvious reasons. Later she expressed her desire for a dominant male to treat her like a slave, call her all the cuss words one can imagine. All those hundreds of hours spent in watching BDSM were going to pay back, I started articulating my ideas for the script which will make me look like a chest-thumping alpha male.
It was showtime, I started shooting blend of swear words originating from both Hindi and Punjabi lexicon.  My delivery was flawless, each gaali filled with emotions, my accent added inroduced a whole new dimension to it. She was awestruck, probably after witnessing my command over the art of profanity.
At this point I almost forgot what the actual fuck we were supposed to do, my inner toxic-tenager was ragging to destroy the opponent like it used to do on facebook in good ‘ol days. My erection was gone, I was sitting there in front of camera, holding my flacid shlong.
I’ve to admit she was very supportive, even after all this she didn’t leave. She giggled when I apologized for all the mess, and decided to revive the fallen one.
She came up with this idea of using a pen to visualise as mine and proceded to give virtual BJ. To make things more realistic she decided to add an extra aspect of sound, which sounded something like this- “dok-dok-dok-dok”.
I was trying hard to control my laugh but then out of nowhere she said ‘Chod bhen ke lode’.
At that moment I lost it.
After laughing like an retarded chimp, I was certain that she will say fuck off and block me but again, she proved me wrong. She did call me immature but wasn’t mad,
