Immigrant Blues

by Li-Young Lee

People have been trying to kill me since I was born, a man tells his son, trying to explain the wisdom of learning a second tongue.

It’s the same old story from the previous century about my father and me.

The same old story from yesterday morning about me and my son.

It’s called “Survival Strategies and the Melancholy of Racial Assimilation.”

It’s called “Psychological Paradigms of Displaced Persons,“

called “The Child Who’d Rather Play than Study.”

Practice until you feel the language inside you, says the man.

But what does he know about inside and outside, my father who was spared nothing in spite of the languages he used?

And me, confused about the flesh and soul, who asked once into a telephone, Am I inside you?

You’re always inside me, a woman answered, at peace with the body’s finitude, at peace with the soul’s disregard of space and time.

Am I inside you? I asked once lying between her legs, confused about the body and the heart.

If you don’t believe you’re inside me, you’re not, she answered, at peace with the body’s greed, at peace with the heart’s bewilderment.

It’s an ancient story from yesterday evening

called “Patterns of Love in Peoples of Diaspora,”

called “Loss of the Homeplace and the Defilement of the Beloved,“

called “I Want to Sing but I Don’t Know Any Songs.”

"My life closed twice before its close -- ..."

by Emily Dickinson

My life closed twice before its close -- It yet remains to see If immortality unveil A third event to me

So huge, so hopeless to conceive As these that twice befell. Parting is all we know of heaven, And all we need of hell.

I'mmmmm backkkk! Hopefully Im not being too annoying with these asks, but I've been spot reading various chapters of OMWF. I really need to put down your fic soon and walk away for a bit because I'm becoming obsessed to the point of not doing the other hobbies I've got going on. But anyways - question: The Shopkeeper, can you clarify (spoilers obviously for your audience) just how much The Shopkeeper knew of Yor's private life and feelings? And basically the entanglement between SSS and Garden - how did that play in? Did The Shopkeeper somehow look out for Yor in the later chapters?

Also 2nd question - I believe it's Chapter 23 or 24...who was that mysterious person who shot Yor with that poisoned bullet? Was that guy in anyway related to the two previous guys (one with a bomb) who tried to kill Yor in the previous chapter?

Apologies for the line of questioning, and that's not to denigrate your work at ALL - I'm currently binging Spy X Family the anime series specifically because of OMWF and I havent reached the Shopkeeper's episode yet. My lack of context probably caused me to gloss over those storyline bits as I raced through my first OMWF reading.

HELO HELLO!! :"D no worries at all!! i can imagine the political element could be confusing!

sorry it took me so long to get back x__x i'm very spotty with replying, even at the best of times JHSDF(#

Spoilers below!

just how much The Shopkeeper knew of Yor's private life and feelings? I wrote it with the intention being that The Shopkeeper knew everything, always, about all of his garden (so not just Yor), but it's one of those things that could easily be left up to interpretation, imo :D

the entanglement between SSS and Garden - how did that play in? oh man, i have to reread this fic if i'm going to answer this appropriately, bc i can't even remember rn LMFAO based on my outline and my foggy memory, i'll try to break it down:

Garden is not popular knowledge (canon). BUT i figured that there MUST be ppl in the SSS and higher in the gov't who know about them. I'm sure the Shopkeeper knows everything at all times about what's going on in Ostania, but I don't think it's a stretch either that there are gov't officials who aren't exactly aligned with the rest of their colleagues that are able to contact Garden if they want a kill.

Garden kills traitorous Ostanians (canon). i figure "traitor" is kind of subjective depending on who's requesting the kill, which is important bc:

if the SSS has ever recruited Garden assassins to make kills (which i believe i wrote that they have), then the higher-ups in the SSS know that Garden is actually dangerous to the govt's agenda. Like, if all of Ostania gov't and martial law & whateverwhatever is pretty much dictated by Donovan (and the national party), and if somebody in Donovan's cabinet who isn't actually entirely onboard could call in a garden kill to get rid of him, then the SSS should get rid of garden. which is why they made plans to kill everybody in it. they can't have it getting out just how corrupt the system is (that they're secretly killing dissenters)

ultimately, all that background is necessary for the set up in ch23, where Yuri's commander lets slip that they're looking into Yor, and then, in ch28, him finding out that Yor isn't just randomly targeted, she's a Garden assassin they're planning to kill

who was that mysterious person who shot Yor with that poisoned bullet? ... related to the two previous guys (one with a bomb) who tried to kill Yor in the previous chapter? poison bullet guy is roman :) that's why sylvia recognizes the bullet, and why she's able to put two and two together.

the two guys with a bomb are dissenters. you could read them as being sent there as a setup by whoever. it's mostly just to show that yor's job isn't as easy as it used to be, before she realized how subjective "traitor" actually is (referring to point #2 above). they're two ppl who don't believe in the Ostanian agenda (they call her pro-war scum for defending Olif&co.), yet they're willing to bomb ppl to do it. then, the added complication of the second guy only doing it to keep his family alive (despite having to die himself to do that).
