I am late again but here I am! I haven't forgotten Phoenix but those type of stories need un-diverted attention and I will get to that properly:)
Shru🤗🤗 Take your time darling, I'm in no hurry and no is the phoenix. I'm glad you read these, even if you're late😳
OS 2:
Really liked this too. It was painful but realistic to see how Swara is almost compelled to seek her father and despite the insults she meets there is rooted. It is redolent in many ways of the Swara we see but feels more natural here. Loved Sanskaar's protective instincts and clear stand he takes for Swara- again, totally what we expect but lovely to read! Am off to read the 3rd one now (gone 12.15 am 😆).
True...she is so dependent on family...that is what SQ and IK are all about. 12.15? Girl...when do you sleep?OS 3:
This is the perfect SwaSan chapter- brings home so clearly why these two are soul mates. I loved the absolute accord with each other they have and how the masks can slip to nothingness with each other. The conversation and Sanskaar's way of mitigating her pain was so effective. I could feel Swara's pain and the answering echo of it in Sanskaar. I also liked the questions game, said so much so powerfully especially the fears and the deepest longings. Also the subtle way Swara's growing awareness of Sanskaar now coming to the front was nicely done. Really enjoyed this one too Saku.
Thanks...yes the masks do slip when they are alone, and it was supposed to highlight all the soulmate connection😳😳Parts 4, 5, 6:
These were totally adorable and heart warming and made me miss IK/ SQ again. Loved the interaction between SwaSan of course but actually even Lakshya in 4 made me laugh with the way he stupidly let the cat out of the bag for the party! Sanskaar in all 3 is so suave even at that age, which is so appealing. I love the whole dynamic of how he still "allows" Swara to bully him. I had a friendship in my late teens with one of my best friends a little like that- (we weren't romantically involved!!) but I got away with murder with him and he let me boss him around when no one else could, this made me quite nostalgic as of course at that age, I never even realised it 😊. I also enjoyed in particular the way Sanskaar was so angry that Lakshya had hurt Swara, nice foreshadowing there. The chess game made me remember Medha's piece Black and White again and miss her but I always love chess analogies and descriptions. These have all been such a delight.
Lots of love Saku xx
