For the nature ask:
🍁 (Favourite season)
🍀 (Your favourite memory in nature)
🌹 (Mountains or beaches)
MK !!! Thank you so much for sending this in, you have made your Shaon Di very happy. I chose the muses ( characters ) at random, so this has been really helpful in finding their voices.
🍁 (favourite season)
Hemonto, or Hemkanti Bandhopadhaya is a side character in my WIP আলোর স্রোতে পাল তুলেছে হাজার প্রজাপতি < a thousand butterflies have spread their wings | working title 🦋 >
His favourite season is, quite predictably, HEMANTA, the season between autumn and winter, commonly known as pre-winter. No, he did not pick favourites based on the season's connection to his name, or that he was born in early November. The season is special to him, because of how it sits as a transition period between two primary seasons ( there are mainly four in Kolkata, summer, autumn, winter and spring ). Hemonto likes the grey area, the middle ground - a bit of both worlds. The lull in activity after the pujo season has said its goodbyes, the downtime as humanity waits for the winter festivities. The fan spins above his head in lazy circles, there is a hint of coldness in the air as he returns home in the evenings. Early morning tea and biscuits are coated with a thin layer of fog, and everything, even Mother Nature herself, slows down, as if to find a quiet corner and settle down for a nap after all the hustle bustle of autumn. There is something beautiful about the idyllic nature of HEMANTA, a tranquility he doesn't find in any of the other seasons. That and he really appreciates the chance to wear full sleeves shirts without them transforming into a wet rag at the end of the day, and he likes slipping into a panjabi as he waits for dinner to be served. He feels relieved when his tongue welcomes a warm cup of tea instead of protesting how the weather was too hot for a hot beverage.
🍀 (Your favourite memory in nature)
Aendri is from an (untitled, as of yet) fake!dating story I thought up one cold, cold night as I snuggled deeper into my blanket.
She doesn't have a favourite memory, one she associates with nature. They all blur in her head, a colorful cloud of happiness and love for nature. The warmth of the sunbeams dancing on her closed eyelids, caressing her face, drops of rain touching her hair, her palm, her bare feet - all of them, blending into a sense of peace, of belonging. Nature made her feel loved, and it is this love that stays with her, instead of the vivid pictures of the elements of nature that made her feel loved. She vaguely remembers having a birthday party in the garden, yearly holidays in Puri where she used to sit on the beach with her mother, counting waves and building...well, they couldn't be called sand-castles, more like heaps of sand that had broken seashells stuck on them. She remembers a trip to Darjeeling, being awestruck after seeing Kangchenjunga for the first time. Aendri remembers it all, and the memories are so very dear to her, but she doesn't have a favourite. Nothing sticks out with a glow sign. She wonders if it meant she didn't love nature all that much, but ultimately, she doesn't care. Her love is in her heart, and that's enough.
🌺 Mountains or beaches
Priyom is a character for a RP I did sometime in 2020. He is a software developer with a love for food and food photography ( his food always looks far better than it tastes, but he isn't a terrible cook, just...very average ). He also likes to present the best parts of his life to the world, posting stylish photos on his social media handles and pretending that he is happy™
He sees beauty in both, and where mountains make for better pictures from an aesthetic sense, with the mist, the trees, the coats and scarves. The beach also has plenty of potential, but the vibes are different. Sunrises and sunsets at the beach, in reds and oranges, the waves crashing onto the shore, all of those had a calm presence. A beach was somewhere you went to relax. A mountain was somewhere you went to escape society, where you went to find yourself. On a personal note, one completely unrelated to his social media accounts, he reserves a special place for mountains. Maula Ali Hill had been an integral part of his love life, it was there, where he had stood, drenched from top to toe, and had realised that him and Aaleyah? They were meant to be. For similar reasons, beaches are also special to him. Sun Siyam Iru Fushi Destination Dining sat right beside the beach, with a gorgeous view of the ocean, and the waves had witnessed one of the best moments of his life, when Aaleyah had asked for his hand in marriage. Priyom Borthakur thought the world of his wonderful wife, who was both the love of her life and his best friend, and places that bore slight resemblance to the places where their relationship had found its seal of approval? Those were the best. Mountain, beach, a computer screen, all of them were absolutely perfect ( but for the sake of the question asked, we would stick to mountains and beaches ).
