Something echoes in cir thoughts, a reminder that ce should've thought ahead when summoning the wither to kill Bdubs. Another says that ce's fought them time and time again without injury.

But here Impulse lay in muted pain without an arm.

or Impulse looses an arm to the wither fight and nearly dies, so the hermits try to help cir recover.

ਪਗਡੰਡੀ (Berm) English translation below

ਹੌਲੀ ਹੌਲੀ ਤੁਰਦੀ ਪਗਡੰਡੀ ਤੇ ਮੇਰਾ ਓਹਦੇ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਤੁਰਨਾ ਓਹਦਾ ਗਿੱਲੀ ਵੱਟ ਤੋਂ ਤਿਲਕਦੀ ਦਾ ਮੇਰੇ ਹੱਥ ਦਾ ਸਹਾਰਾ ਦੇਣ ਤੋਂ ਪਹਿਲਾ ਸੰਭਲ ਜਾਣਾ, ਮੇਰਾ ਪਗਡੰਡੀ ਨੂੰ ਗਾਲ੍ਹਾਂ ਕੱਢਣਾ ਤੇਰੀ ਸ਼ੋਹ ਨੂੰ ਤਰਸਦੇ ਰਹਿ ਜਾਣਾ ਮੇਰੇ ਹੱਥਾਂ ਦਾ ਸੁਣ ਮੇਰੀਏ ਕੋਹ-ਕਾਫ ਦੀਏ ਪਰੀਏ ਤੇਰਾ ਬਸ ਨਾਲ ਹੋਣਾ ਜ਼ਰੂਰੀ ਏ ਤੈਨੂੰ ਮੇਰਾ ਸ਼ੋਹਣਾ ਜ਼ਰੂਰੀ ਨਾਈ ਡਰ ਲੱਗਦਾ ਮੇਰੇ ਸ਼ੋਹਣ ਨਾਲ ਤੂੰ ਕੁਮਲਾ ਨਾ ਜਾਵੇਂ ਚੰਨ ਵਰਗੀਏ ਮੈਲੀ ਨਾ ਹੋ ਜਾਵੇਂ ਕਸਤੂਰੀ ਏ ਤੂੰ ਮੇਰੀ ਮੇਰੇ ਅੰਦਰੋਂ ਮੇਰੀ ਦੁਨੀਆ ਨੂੰ ਮਹਿਕਾਉਂਦੀ ਏ ਤੂੰ ਖੁਦ ਕੁਦਰਤ ਏ ਤੈਨੂੰ ਬਹਾਰਾਂ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਨਈ -lvbrdz

Pagdandi

Hauli hauli turdi pagdandi te, Mera ohde piche piche turna, Ohda gilli watt toh tilakdi da, Mere hath da sahara den, Toh pehla sambhal jana, Mera pagdandi nu gala kadna, Teri shoh nu tarsade reh jana, mere hatha da, Sunn meriye koh qaf diye pariye, Tera bas nal hona zaroori aa, Tainu mera shohna zaroori nai Dar lagda mere shohan nal tu kumla na jave, chann wargiye maili naa ho jave, Kastoori aa tu meri, Mere andro meri duniya nu mehkaundi ae, Tu khud kudrat ae, tenu bahara di lor nai -lvbrdz

Berm

Walking slowly on the berm of a field I followed her She was holding her feet tightly on a slippery berm Before I can even catch her She always skip falling I start cursing the berm As my hands yearn to touch her Listen, my koh-kaaf's fairy It is necessary for me to be with you It is not necessary for me to touch you I fear that with my touch, you may wilt Hey Moonchild, I may ruin your beauty by my touch You are my musk You from within, put fragrance in my world You are nature itself You don't need springs -lvbrdz

“But our country, which once was a true friend of colonised people, is silent today. Most of the public intellectuals and writers, all but a very few, are also silent today,” she rued, while stating that the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and the siege of Gaza is a crime against humanity."

lilyknight134: Today I was very lucky and I met tom and zendaya and Nikki! (Toms mum) for a second time! They are such lovely people and came to The Royal Marsden Hospital, we all had lots of pictures together and I got to walk them around mcElwain ward to meet all the children going through treatment. We also took a visit to the teenage and young adults ward 😇 I had such a lovely day thank you so much for coming.

Dec 13 - Meant to finally bake some cookies today, didn't. Went to check something in a game in Steam beforehand, discovered there was a No Man's Sky update pending, and that I'd missed the start of their annual expedition replays. Logged into NMS, there was 1 day left to get the first one done. So I did that instead of baking. And then played a little more TS4. I'll have to try again tomorrow (technically later today) I guess.

I can't really put off baking for much longer, as I'm headed down to Toronto to spend the holidays with the nephew next week, a combination of giving him a further hand with scanning and stuff, plus a chance to spend Christmas with him plus my brother's family and in-laws down there.

Made beef stew for supper tonight; beef, onions, salt, pepper, oregano, bay leaf, bouillon cube, a large pinch of ground cloves, white wine, potatoes, carrots, and green beans.

It was fine, she was fine, nothing bad would happen. At least that's what reverberated through Zedaph's head for the past month since she'd moved in with Tango.

The two had managed to find a half decent apartment, one that even allowed pets, which she was thankful for even if neither of them currently had any.

But there was something at the back of her mind, bothering her constantly; Tango wasn't happy.

Which could be simple, there could be many reasons for Tango's unhappiness, but Zedaph was (at least among close friends) sometimes notoriously bad at overthinking things.

So here they stood, the sheep busy taking on her part of the chores – Tango had forgotten to fold the laundry for a full week… again… – in the living room while the netherborn cleaned the dishes in the attached kitchenette.

“Hey, Zed… do you– do you ever feel like you don't belong in your skin?” Tango says cautiously.

“What do you mean?” Zedaph asks, though something pulls and sounds so familiar to her ears. A feeling not yet said or revealed in full.

“Just– I don't know, like your reflection isn't yours? Not like– well maybe…” They go on. “Like you don't fit. Your body is wrong but like in some ways it's right.”

And there it was, bright as day and now left out in the open on a hanging thread.

She stood from the couch, walking over to Tango. “What exactly do you mean, Tango?”

They threw their lip, placing a plate onto a rack to dry.

“I don't– I don't know… that's the problem…” They say shyly. “You– I've been thinking about when you first came out to me and it– it almost sounded right but– but I don't– being a ‘man’ doesn't feel right… but neither does being a women…”

Zedaph places a hand on Tango's back then moves the other to his chin, forcing the netherborn to look at her.

“Everyone's feelings about gender are different, Tango.” She says gently. “Sometimes– sometimes it isn't even one to the other. Sometimes it's both or neither or everything under the sun.”

Tango blinks, confusion then crosses their face slowly as the meaning digs deeper.

“Wait, that's an option? Those are options?”

She can't stop herself from laughing at that, it’s well meaning but–

“I don't have to be either and no one told me?!”

“Yes?”

They back up, hands over their face and screaming like something's been released from their soul. A form of pain gone, replaced by confusion and some type of joy.

“Tango, Tango, are you okay?” Zedaph says through laughter.

“I'm just– I'm happy… I guess…”

“Good.” She tugs lightly on their hoodie. “Because I need you out of this.”

“Wow, at least take me to dinner first.”

---------

“Tango, you’ve worn this for a year straight without washing it and it smells awful…”

“… fine…”
