List of potential victims from most likely to least likely (in my opinion)

Nish - He's the most obvious, which also sort of makes him the least likely I guess but I want him gone so he's at the top of my list 🤷 I can see Suki and Stacey finding out that he did something to Eve, assuming he murdered her and reacting accordingly. Also with Rocky and and covering for Ravi as regards to Ranveer, Kathy and Denise have enough reason to hate him. Maybe not kill him, but certainly help cover up the murder (if that's where this is going)

Ravi - controversial opinion but I actually kinda like Ravi? Yes his behaviour with Denise was hella dodge but I think he makes a really good 'villain with a heart'? Just me? Okay. But yes he is obviously high on the list because of his connection to at least half of the 6, but the introduction of Avani and Priya seems like weird timing to kill him off. I would also love to see him in the aftermath of Nish's murder.

Dean - he's middle of the pack because, while all of the 6 have reason to hate him, his connection is strongest to Linda who, just in my viewing of it, seems to just walk in and isn't necessarily an active player in the murder. Also bringing back a villain to kill him off immediately is boring af 🤷

Keanu - honestly kind of want it to be him just so I never have to see that block of wood try to act again. It would also leave Bernie as the only Taylor left standing so they might actually give her and decent storyline🤞The backlash from Albies 'kidnapping' could play into this but the 6 seem like a random cast to include in his death

Phil - If Steve McFadden was leaving, this year of eastenders would have been The Phil Show™, all guns blazin'. Okay he has been on screen a lot but not really front and centre. And with the whole ONS with Emma and Albies paternity, that's way too many loose ends imo. But Sharon could also be lying about the victim being dead 🤷

Rocky - meh? Doesn't really make sense for his death to be so dramatic and I can't see it leading on to anything else big so?? Also the actor leaving was announced months ago so it's unlikely if they were trying so hard to keep the victim's identity a secret

Jack - literally the only reason they started the whole Stacey and Jack thing was to have another potential victim. Yawn. Nobody wants this. Please stop.

I could also see them playing a wild card and killing Theo? I think he's the only other male cast member outside of those mentioned that would make sense

Read -> Reading -> To-Read

I am not usually one for horror, terror, gothic, thrillers or anything of the sort, but I've decided to try reading out of my comfort zone!

Read: House of Cotton by Monica Brashears

I read House of Cotton and it is not for the weak-stomached. It was a mix of creepy yet intriguing. Main character Magnolia gets way in over her head throughout the book and it is cringe-worthy to read as she escapes some of her situations.

(Trigger warning: This book does contains instances of assault.)

Reading: As the Wicked Watch by Tamron Hall

Continuing in the path of thrillers, I've just begun reading As the Wicked Watch. Knowing Tamron Hall as a reporter is what drew me to the book, but the Chicago setting and the mystery within has me not wanting to put the book down.

To Read: Murder is a Piece of Cake by Valerie Burns

I came across this mystery series by chance. While this is technically book #2, I am going to start with it. Having a bakery as a backdrop to murders within a small town is just the sweetness I need to not scare me while I read!

Pure Pooja Cotton Wicks: Essential for Your Sacred Rituals

In the realm of spirituality and religious practices, certain elements hold a profound significance, acting as conduits for divine energy and blessings. Among these, the humble cotton wick occupies a special place, especially in the context of pooja rituals. Pure pooja cotton wicks are more than just a means to light a flame; they symbolize purity, devotion, and the illumination of the soul. This article delves into the importance of pure cotton wicks in pooja, their benefits, and how to select the best wicks to enhance your sacred rituals.

The Symbolism of Lighting a Lamp in Pooja

Lighting a lamp during pooja is a practice steeped in symbolism and tradition. In Hinduism and many other cultures, the act of lighting a lamp signifies the dispelling of darkness and ignorance, bringing in light, knowledge, and wisdom. The flame represents the presence of the divine, guiding us towards righteousness and spiritual awakening.

A cotton wick, soaked in oil or ghee, is the medium that sustains this sacred flame. It is believed that the quality of the wick and the oil used can influence the efficacy of the ritual, making the choice of wick an essential aspect of pooja preparations.

Why Pure Cotton Wicks are Preferred

Pure cotton wicks are traditionally favored in pooja rituals for several reasons:

1. Purity and Natural Origin

Cotton is a natural fiber, symbolizing purity and simplicity. Using pure cotton wicks aligns with the spiritual intent of maintaining purity in rituals, free from synthetic additives or impurities that could disrupt the sanctity of the practice.

2. Clean and Steady Flame

High-quality cotton wicks burn cleanly, producing a steady flame with minimal smoke. This is crucial for maintaining the focus and ambiance required for deep meditation and prayer. A steady flame is also considered a positive omen, indicating the presence and blessings of the divine.

3. Biodegradable and Eco-friendly

In an era where environmental consciousness is paramount, using biodegradable materials in religious practices reflects a commitment to sustainability. Pure cotton wicks decompose naturally, leaving no harmful residues, thus harmonizing spiritual practices with environmental stewardship.

4. Enhanced Absorption

Pure cotton wicks have excellent oil absorption properties. This ensures a consistent supply of fuel to the flame, allowing it to burn brightly and steadily for extended periods, which is particularly important during long rituals or festivals.

Qualities of High-Quality Pooja Cotton Wicks

Not all cotton wicks are created equal. Here are some key qualities that define high-quality pooja cotton wicks:

1. Material and Purity

The best cotton wicks are made from 100% pure, natural cotton. This ensures that they burn cleanly and effectively, without releasing any toxic substances that could interfere with the ritual.

2. Twist and Thickness

The twist and thickness of the wick are crucial for its performance. A well-twisted wick with uniform thickness provides a steady burn and a bright flame. High-quality wicks are crafted to maintain their shape and integrity during burning.

3. Length and Flexibility

The length of the wick should be appropriate for the size of the lamp or diya. Flexible wicks that can be easily shaped and adjusted are preferred, as they can be tailored to fit various types of lamps used in pooja.

4. Packaging and Storage

Proper packaging ensures that the wicks remain free from moisture and contaminants. High-quality wicks are often packaged in moisture-resistant, hygienic materials to maintain their purity and effectiveness until use.

Benefits of Using Pure Cotton Wicks in Pooja

1. Enhancing Spiritual Atmosphere

A pure cotton wick produces a clean, bright flame that significantly enhances the spiritual atmosphere. The steady glow creates a serene and sacred ambiance, helping devotees focus on their prayers and meditation.

2. Consistency in Rituals

Consistency is key in rituals, and a high-quality wick ensures a uniform and steady flame throughout the pooja. This helps in maintaining the flow of the ritual without interruptions, ensuring a seamless spiritual experience.

3. Symbolic Significance

Using pure materials in rituals is believed to bring greater spiritual benefits. Pure cotton wicks, representing purity and devotion, align with the spiritual objectives of pooja, facilitating a deeper connection with the divine.

4. Environmental Responsibility

Incorporating eco-friendly practices in religious rituals reflects a holistic approach to spirituality. Using biodegradable cotton wicks minimizes environmental impact, making the rituals more sustainable and responsible.

How to Choose the Best Pooja Cotton Wicks

Selecting the right cotton wicks for pooja involves considering several factors to ensure you get the best quality:

1. Check the Material

Ensure that the wicks are made from 100% pure cotton. Avoid wicks that contain synthetic fibers or chemical treatments, as these can produce harmful smoke and affect the quality of the flame.

2. Examine the Twist and Thickness

Look for wicks that are uniformly twisted and of consistent thickness. This ensures a steady burn and a bright flame. Well-twisted wicks are also less likely to unravel during use.

3. Test the Absorption

High-quality wicks should absorb oil efficiently. You can test this by placing a small section of the wick in oil and observing how quickly it draws the oil up. Efficient oil absorption is crucial for a consistent flame.

4. Consider the Length and Flexibility

Choose wicks that are the appropriate length for your lamps or diyas. Flexible wicks that can be easily shaped and adjusted are ideal for different types of pooja setups.

5. Review Packaging

Ensure that the wicks are well-packaged to protect them from moisture and dust. Proper packaging maintains the purity and effectiveness of the wicks until they are used.

Incorporating Cotton Wicks in Various Pooja Rituals

1. Daily Worship

In many households, lighting a lamp as part of daily worship is a common practice. Using pure cotton wicks in these lamps ensures a clean and steady flame, creating a peaceful environment for daily prayers.

2. Festivals and Special Occasions

During festivals and special occasions, lighting multiple lamps and diyas is a tradition. High-quality cotton wicks ensure that these lamps burn brightly throughout the celebrations, enhancing the festive spirit.

3. Meditation and Aarti

Meditation sessions often involve lighting a lamp to create a focused and serene atmosphere. A steady flame from a pure cotton wick helps in maintaining concentration. Similarly, during aarti (ritual of waving lighted lamps before deities), a bright and steady flame is crucial for the ritual’s sanctity.

4. Temple Use

In temples, where lamps are lit continuously, using high-quality cotton wicks ensures that the lamps burn consistently and efficiently. This maintains the sacred ambiance of the temple and supports the uninterrupted flow of rituals.

Conclusion

Pure pooja cotton wicks are an essential component of sacred rituals, embodying the principles of purity, devotion, and sustainability. Their role in producing a clean, steady flame is crucial for enhancing the spiritual atmosphere and ensuring the efficacy of the rituals. By choosing high-quality cotton wicks made from 100% pure cotton, devotees can elevate their pooja experience, fostering a deeper connection with the divine. Whether for daily worship or special occasions, the right cotton wicks are indispensable for maintaining the sanctity and beauty of your spiritual practices.

Cindy And Ian's Wedding Day DISASTER 😢 EastEnders

[sttoru]

⠀ 𝝑𝑒 ⠀⠀ 𝐒𝐘𝐍𝐎𝐏𝐒𝐈𝐒. toji cannot wait to break in his virgin girlfriend—though until then, he’ll settle for simply teasing you until you’re a trembling mess.

tags. toji fushiguro x virgin!female reader. smut, pwp. age gap (reader early 20’s, toji early 30’s). corruption kink. dry humping? cum play. size difference. reader gets called ‘princess, doll’ queued

toji loves to tease you—you know that very well. he thrives off your reactions to his dirty words, the subtle yet naughty touches that he sneaks in during conversations, the seductive glint in his half lidded eyes whenever you’re around . . he knows what he’s doing.

even more so when you’re in his bed at night. you usually cuddle, sometimes make out and grind against each other, but nothing too lewd yet. toji doesn’t mind waiting to get a taste of you. he knows it will be worth the wait at the end.

but oh—is it difficult. so, so difficult. especially when you allow him access to more parts of your body.

“shit, princess,” he pants, hissing a bit when the mushroom tip of his cock bumps against your clothed clit, “y’re gettin’ so wet, huh? just by looking at my cock ‘n feeling it rub against your pussy.”

your cotton panties surely are damp with arousal; from both toji and you. his pre-cum mixes with your juices, ruining your favorite pair of panties. the wet spot forming near your slit only gets darker and darker the more you allow toji to rub his dick back and forth over your cunt.

“mngh—fuck. need you,” you whine, unable to fight the urge to buck your hips against his fat cock. your eyes dart up to your boyfriend to express your neediness, but he grabs your nape and guides your gaze back to his red tip pushing against your sloppy underwear.

toji lets out a dry chuckle. “i know y’ do. y’r pussy told me that long time ago,” he comments while he watches your adorable reactions to him pushing and pulling his cock from your clothed pussy. he’s only interested in you—the way your eyes glisten with tears and pleasure.

if it isn’t for his self control, he would have fucked you by now. but he’ll patiently wait until the perfect timing to push through that invisible wall, to pop your cherry while he looks you in the eyes, taking that innocence from you that he oh-so loves.

“want my cock, doll?” toji asks with a wicked grin. his large hands runs over your chest to your tummy. he guides his shaft over to your belly, measuring how much of your insides it would fill. “mm, yeah—would mess you up pretty bad,” he hums as the tip reaches your belly button. even further than that.

the thought excites the older man. to be your first, the first man who’ll mould your pussy to only fit his cock. no one else will have the honor of stripping you from your virginity.

“want it. want it all the way inside me,” you reply back, voice shaking with excitement. you’re going to cum soon from him simply grinding against your clothed cunt. your poor clit is continuously being circled and bumped against by his tip and it’s driving you crazy.

toji swallows thickly. “don’t ya tempt me like that,” he warns you in a dark tone. he runs a rough finger over your wet panties, keeping your legs spread wide with his knees. he easily finds your little hole as the cotton material sticks to your pussy, showing the outlines of your lips.

“might just push in here. .” toji murmurs as he positions the leaking head of his dick against your covered entrance, “. . and fill you up while hearing you scream my name. sounds good, ay?”

you gasp and feel your cunt clench around nothing. his hips move back and forth, shallow thrusts against the barrier that is your panties, mimicking the real thing. “y-yeah—oh, ‘m g’nna cum,” your heart rate picks up as your back arches off the mattress.

toji raises an eyebrow, secretly finding it endearing how that is the action that pushes you over the edge. you’re so adorable; simply thinking of him actually fucking you senseless and the feeling of his tip seeking your pussy is enough.

“aww, she’s gonna cum,” the dark-haired man snickers after mocking you. toji gauges your reactions and grins when he sees your head rolling back against the pillow.

“do y’ wanna cum together? we can,” he smirks as he leans down to intertwine your hands—playing the role of the gentle boyfriend who’s having sex with his girlfriend for the first time. he’s trying to give you the full experience while not actually giving it to you yet.

“y-yes, wanna cum together,” you nod mindlessly, your mouth feeling dry. you squeeze your eyes shut while also holding tightly onto toji’s hand. your pussy tightens up around air while your hips buck up to meet toji’s thrusts against your covered, wet hole.

“c-close—ngh, toji!” your eyes widen once his tip pressing snugly between your pussy lips. for a second it felt like his cock had successfully breached through your panties. that short-lived moment is enough to push you over the edge and cum on spot.

toji witnesses the bliss in your facial expression and he groans. “fuckkk—take it. g’nna cum all over ya princess,” he presses his hips firmly against yours, his full length resting right between your wet folds, ropes of cum spurting out of his aching tip.

you feel the sticky liquid stain your belly, running down to the waistband of your panties and even staining the front part. your choked up moans are music to your boyfriend’s ears while he calms down from his own orgasm.

his big biceps tremble as he holds himself up above you, grinning from ear to ear. “keheh, made a mess out of you,” toji’s voice is filled with pride. he lets you cling onto him for as long as you need to.

his eyes dart down to the sticky mess on your tummy and panties. the older man leans back on his knees to admire the view. he really couldn’t wait to actually slide inside of your tight cunt—but this will suffice for now. the sight of his cute girlfriend trembling and whimpering beneath him makes up for everything.

his fingers hook around the waistband of your panties. “can i look, doll?” toji asks in a gruff voice, desparate to see your glistening cunt. you weakly nod and he doesn’t waste any more time.

the sight greeting him when he pulls your underwear down is nearly enough to make him cum again. your juices are everywhere, multiple strings of wetness connecting your pussy to your panties. they snap one after the other as your panties are slowly removed.

“oh, y’re such a messy girl,” toji sighs, leaning down to kiss your tummy, licking up some of his own cum. you shiver and your hands dart out to hold onto his black hair. he chuckles at the gesture, humming in acknowledgement.

his eyes darken when he catches a glimpse of your sopping pussy again. he’s so close to it — so extremely close. his gaze darts over to a drop of his cum that threatens to slide down and over your clit. the heat and smell of your cunt is driving that man to the brink of insanity.

toji lolls his tongue out, eyes glistening with desire while he pushes your legs up and over his shoulders, big hands holding onto your hips. drool gathers in the corners of his mouth as his face hovers right between your legs;

“mind if i have a taste of you, princess? jus’ a quick one, i promise.”
