Hi dearest,🤗
A late unres, as it has been the case recently. I should confess properly that I have completely given up on the show. It is because I can't bring myself to let the present of the storyline destroy the beautiful memories I have of the past glorious moments...that otp only lives in fictional world nowadays. It is in fics like these they come to grip the full essence of what they are...their gloriously intense emotional bindings restored in roaring fires, pains and trials that only serves to mold them better added to the mixture.
Saku dearest 🤗🤗
So very happy that you loved this OS so much. I am touched that you felt this had done justice to the intense emotional underpinnings, the dard ka rishta aspect as it were, of the SwaSan bond. Its so true, and immensely ironic as well, that their bond was honed in the fires of a shared pain and loss; grew out of that like the strongest steel and the purest, finest gold. And now, that same pain and loss is being inflicted by them upon themselves. 😭 Sanskaar was completely shattered when Swara walked out on him, it literally ate away at him from inside. It hurts, hurts so badly---and that pain and heartbreak is what I wanted to portray. Glad that it appealed to you so much.
I always admire the way you deal with Swasan, there is love in its sublime beauty and deep running roots of intensity but nothing too fanciful or utterly fluff that would make the whole thing sugar floss. They are as human as you and me in your writing, people with blood tears and flaws to their being. What I adore most is that in spite of all that they have courage to always hold on to each other in the most impossible of situations.
😳 ☺️ Really touched by those words, dear. Yes, to me, SwaSan certainly are real people, with all the attendant tears, hurts, scars and flaws. Their love is certainly intense and compelling, running very deep indeed. But circumstances, and to a certain degree, a gap in communication, has led to this impasse. Sanskaar facilitated and indulged Swara's missions always----with the result that when he did put his foot down, she, perhaps, did not take him as seriously as she should have. Might it have been better had they talked about this much earlier, had Sanskaar made his objections and unease clear much before the red lines were crossed? That is the question, and like so many subjective ones, it has no clear answer. That is the beauty of the essential human flaws inherent here----the love is there; but to a certain degree, perhaps, Swara believed in Sanskaar rather than having absolute faith in him. Whereas he had faith in her, as well as trusting her and believing in her. The distinction might be very subtle and nuanced, but it is there, nevertheless.
Here the story hints at a probable role reversal. What I mean to say is Sanskar has always been the earth of their equation, providing the stable anchor point as well as the path finder in all scenarios to Swara's water like nature. Now is the time when the compressed emotional turmoils of earth is finally gonna erupt in the form of the most impactful of volcanos. The scorching lava of intense agony running everywhere setting all ablaze. Wouldn't it be the cool water now coming to play in and all different persona to extinguish the flames before they causes some unstoppable harm to themselves and the others? I liked how you played with the possibility not really stamping upon a fate for them to follow but choosing to muse in Swara's voice of cause, that it had been her who pulled him in to the light once...can't she do it again?
Wonderfully, wonderfully done!
😳 Am just so touched and thrilled, with your analytical and insightful take here. Yes, that is precisely as I wanted to portray Sunny here---the Earth shaking with a tectonic fury. Like an earthquake, an avalanche, or a volcanic eruption of molten hot magma! Scorching and destructive, certainly. His bitterness and fury, his anguish at being forsaken---it has all pushed him right back into an even deeper darkness; than from the shadowy cavern of vengeance which Swara retrieved him from, initially. She certainly does need to do a lot to succor him, pull him back to light and hope and love again. Can she do it? I would say---definitely, yes. Without the shadow of doubt. Because their love is true and deep; though it is overlaid by all the anger and rage and sense of betrayal now; which has led Sanskaar to say that he 'hates' her. But he doesn't, not by a long shot. He may certainly hate to love her, but love her he does; with every last fiber and pore and cell in his body.
Just, I know there's no way something so masterful would occur to our CVs. If so, world would have been a beautiful place to live and watch serials 😛
😳 ☺️ Just so you know, I am typing this from between the Stratosphere and the Ionosphere now. 😉 You've made me feel on top of the world, literally. 😊
Love you loads,
Saku
