broke ground and started working on the second chapter of caecilian because i am Unable To Help Myself (and also as a little treat for myself for doing some other stuff and making progress on that)
#all the care guide says is 'biomass'#miravi.txt#right now the big discussion is: comparing their living spaces#which is very fun to have miri's contrasted against aaravi's#mostly because miranda's is obscenely clean and tidy but not out of any actual intent from miranda herself#and moreso its a factor of her total lack of control over her living situation#while aaravi's is intensely messy because of her own depression + isolation#and because of her singlemindedness when it comes to what she focuses on and when#its fine if her place is a mess since its just a place for her to rest when shes not doing the slayer thing#with very few comforts of home (because that tends to freak her out for trauma reasons)#when you put them together you have aaravi actually getting invested in where she lives and taking care of it#and wanting it to be comfortable#and you have miranda abruptly able to control her environment and be able to determine for herself what it looks like#miri actually very sincerely does end up with a joy of cleaning#as its a positive alternative to her destructive urges. they both serve the need of giving her control over where she lives and how.#and its a calming and repetitive motion where she can directly observe the outcome of her work and feel good about it#and aaravi has someone who she just wants to hang out with and slow down around#miri acts as a calming presence that also in turn makes her feel safe enough to relax#and it makes her protective in turn and wants to provide miranda with creature comforts to hang around with#ofc this is all in the future and after the events of caecilian but#you know!
