i love your vip art!! do you have any vip headcanons to share?

happy finale day xx !!!!

sorry i'm getting to this late but thank you ! and happy belated finale day !!

most of my headcanons revolve around host!vic or bianca and i fear a lot of them are too upsetting and possibly triggering so i will stick to some of the lighthearted ones for now ??

host!vic appearance

wings: i have been drawing them with wings in the majority of my pieces since the martha and lucian "i got a wing growing out of my back" line . irl vic has mentioned on multiple occasions that they see host!vic as a bird (and i was lucky enough to have a small conversation with them about it in-person) so that + the wing mention in the ep was enough for me to get really really obsessed with giving host!vic wings . my design for them has pretty consistently remained generic black bird wings, but i've drawn them with bat and moth wings in the past and have more recently switched to light brown wings based on @/toyhdgehog's lahore pigeon headcanon that we've adopted

gray streaks in their hair: also originally briefly a bird thing back from when i still associated them with band-tailed pigeons but @/alittlevillainy also had a great take on it being a nana thing . i've mostly chalked it up to a stress thing at this point

scar(s): i don't include this in my art as much (mostly because i'm forgetful) but the idea of host having burn scarring on their neck from when nana burned their hair off has stuck with me . i've also drawn them with scars around the eyes a few times from avery goodman but again , i have not been consistent with it

tail: there is no basis in canon for this but sometimes i like to draw them with a tail :] my beastly creature

horns: i think post-s2 finale they could have horns . as a treat . for having a demon son . i doodled it yesterday (and also gave them a little demon tail . sue me !!)

hair: host!vic having red hair in college is real to me . and recently irl vic cut their hair and dyed it red for ponies but i'm applying it to s3 host in my mind . spencer cut it (maybe against their will) and they dyed it red , as is customary for a breakdown

misc.

host!vic learning to knit from nana . since their relationship was so tumultuous, i think host looks back on her teaching them to knit as one of the few good memories they had together . irl vic knits too and also i love to project my fiber arts obsession onto my favorite characters

host!vic and bianca are both lesbians . this is true to me i know it in my heart trust me . you have to trust me it's pride month

host!vic's pokemon team would have pidove, delcatty, yamask, and froslass

bianca's pokemon team would have absol and rockruff . maybe others . this idea has been on the back burner for months but some day we'll do something with it . maybe

if host and bianca were in animal crossing, they would be a deer and a goat, respectively

most of my other headcanons have either been invalidated by canon Or are just stuff i've absorbed from @/bantersnatch @/toyhdgehog and @/alittlevillainy and they are all better at putting things into words than me so go check out their fics and posts and art !!!!!

[uncle-alam]

hi, stranger on the internets

could you please finish the sentence im very curious about what mian mir did. thanks!

Hazrat Mian Mir's darbar is within walking distance of my house so his relation to Lahore's history was one of the first history tid-bits I picked up. There's plenty of stories about his spiritual teachings. About how Dara Shikoh made him his spiritual guide. How he gained importance to the Sikh community because of his long time friendship with Guru Arjun. How Ranjit Singh paid homage to his memory by constructing a marble tomb for him which still stands today. How his love for music is honoured by Qawwali performances every Thursday night. How his followers founded a village next to his darbar. How the British decided to set up a Cantonment right next to said village. Etc etc. hard to summarize. What I can do for you is share some fragments about him from Manan Ahmed Asif's book (because I rather like the way he wrote about Mian Mir).

manboobs: a memoir of musicals, visas, hope, and cake

type: memoir

author: komail aijazuddin

date of release: august 13, 2024

synopsis:

a blazing new talent’s hilarious memoir about coming of age and coming out in pakistan, moving to america, looking for love, and falling in love with himself along the way.

i’m just a man, standing in front of a salad, asking it to be a cake.

what do you do when you’re too gay for pakistan, too pakistani to be gay in america, and you’re ashamed of your body everywhere? how can you find happiness despite years of humiliation, physical danger, and a legion of brooklyn hipsters who know you only as a queer from whereveristan? how do you summon the courage to be yourself no matter where you are?

even as a young child in lahore, komail aijazuddin knew he was different—no one else at his all-boys prep school was pirouetting off their desks, or bullied for their “manboobs,” or spontaneously bursting into songs from the little mermaid.

aijazuddin began to believe his only chance at a happy, meaningful life would be found elsewhere: america, the land of the free, the home of the gays. but the hostility of a post-9/11 world and society’s rejection of his art, his desires, and his body would soon teach him that finding happiness takes a lot more than a plane ticket.

searching for his place between two worlds while navigating a minefield of expectations, prejudice, and self-doubt, aijazuddin discovered, sometimes painfully, sometimes hilariously, that there are people and places he’d need to let go of to move forward.

BIO.

Tawaifs were beacons of art and guardians of culture and history in India, spoken and interpreted through performance. They kept seminars for the wealthy, offering entertainment and art at night while teaching the royal sons etiquette, language, and poetry during the day, somehow finding themselves close to the top of social and financial brackets. By the 18th century, they were king-makers and king-breakers, holding high influence over nobility and royalty. Poets yearned for them to sing their verses because it was the only way they would be remembered. Writers would beg the most famous tawaifs to recite their work from the lips that entranced all. Victorian standards imposed by the British deemed these women too lewd and thus, worthless, just prostitutes who had forgotten their place. The establishments of tawaifs became central to the rebellion against the British as meeting places, and their wealth carried the financial strain of war. But by the time independence came and the reorganization efforts of the country began, the term tawaif had become derogatory in nature and the profession was erased from history.

The year is 1557, the region of Awadh (modern-day Lucknow), when Kalindi Shukla is taken. She's 16 when the women explain to her a debt was owed by her family. They had no choice, she's told. They had nothing else to offer, besides their youngest daughter, and their debts are always paid. Kalindi is too young and hurt to fight or argue, but not all is so grim. She's trained extensively in all sort of culture and art — ancient traditions of dance, song, theater, and poetry - most of which have only stood the test of time because of people like her. Elegance, etiquette, language and performance. All manner of captivating and influencing a soul, she learns. Her still-developing mind morphs around all that the courtesans teach her, growing proficient in all that she knows simply because it is all that she has.

Year 1575, age 34, Kalindi has become what is known as a tawaif, highly skilled in most that is taught to her; it is also the year she dies.

A high general of the Mughal empire army comes to see her for 27 consecutive nights, and on the 28th night, he decides she's warmed his cold, still heart, and he must have her. Kalindi is cornered, force-fed his blood, and he rips her heart out in exchange for capturing his.

Kalindi has yet to realize the immense power she holds - both as a vampire and as a tawaif - so she doesn't fight. She learns all there is to learn about vampirism (all but compulsion), the other tawaifs tease her about this new relationship with the great war general, and she fakes coy. She is his concubine for far too long, and his existence somehow corrupts everything she's grown to love about their court. A moment of weakness has her incidentally compelling her dearest friend and true lover, who kills the general. Nimmi is executed before Kalindi can blink.

Her name is officially changed to Kali, as a means of letting go of her mortal life, but mostly because she can't imagine anyone else calling her Kalindi in the same way Nimmi did.

Year 1584, age 43, Kali finds solace in the city of Lahore, the new Mughal capital. Her career as a tawaif flourishes once again in the following decades with the help of the existing madames. She's there for the ebb and flow of her beloved profession. She finds her power, her agency -- there are hiccups, but she persists. Some locals praise her for her eternal beauty, others believe her to be a demon come to tempt them all with her full eyes and hypnotizing mannerisms. There's more than enough men to do her bidding, including the spilling of their own blood, and she never goes hungry.

By the 1812, age 271, Kali has made a home in more cities than she can count (though she always frequents Lahore and never dares to go back to Lucknow), she's found pleasure in influencing powerful people to do her bidding, in lording her presence over the politics of the country. She's introduced to the Reardon clan, and her work in crime begins here. She eventually serves as a member of the high council of Uttar Pradesh.

1972, age 431, sees Kali witnessing the downfall of the last remaining tawaif establishments that somehow stood against the colonial government, her own included. Kali plays a heavy hand in the tides turning in favor of Independence.

Independence is gained in 1974, at age 433, but much of her family is forced into prostitution due to public opinion and dismantlement of tawaif courts. She refuses to abandon them or damn them into an immortal life, so she joins them. Happily, with pride, she seeks to protect them. Kali becomes the madam and advocate to most, but not all of what she does is so noble as she delves into the red light districts.

Year 1997, age 456, word of threatening, sprawling instability within the Reardon clan of PL brings the world's last remaining tawaif abroad. Kali seeks to untangle the mess created by the existing clan representative, and serves as a shadow head of the clan, even at times as an interim representative of the clan between figureheads. Kali begins an escort service in the city, though she keeps it separate from the truly immoral and illegal dealings she handles within the underbelly of the city. Over years, her reach sprawls through the city, and she becomes somewhat of a liaison between supernatural creatures seeking other supernatural creatures - occasionally humans.

2023 - Kali has spent 3 continuous years as clan representative on the high council and grows tired. The burden is not difficult to shoulder but she's spent a large portion of her life shaping politics, and has no desire to be the face or figurehead of the clan; she only wishes to prevent morons and/or power vacuums from ruining her business and the sanctity of her business. Fate answers her wishes in the form of a dying witch. Kali owes him, a favor that begets another favor — Gael Fiori is to commit the rest of his newly undead life to the clan in blood. Kali begins to prepare him for his seat as clan representative on the vampire high council of Port Liery.

It takes almost two years, her influence remains strong, but now she can properly set her eyes upon furthering the passion ignited over two decades prior - the criminal underground of PL.

MISC HEADCANONS.

app questions/answers

Kali's morality and ideals are very important to her - so important that she will convince herself she's being noble while simultaneously performing the most heinous act. She has a personal code and certain lines she will not or will be hesitant to cross. Compulsion, for example, is something she is very hesitant to do - the loss of agency and freewill is not lost on her - but she will find ways to corner people into situations where they only have one choice, her choice. At best, Kali is morally grey.

No Man's Land, while important to the clan, is something Kali does not directly put her hands in. She benefits from what goes on, yes. She disapproves of some practices and is willing to make it known, but largely turns a blind eye and leans on Gael to handle that (a relief, frankly).

CONNECTIONS & PLOTS.

Reardons — For some time, Kali has had a heavy hand in Reardon's status as the keepers of PL crime. There's plenty of room here for recruitment (any species), beef on how Kali conducts things, etc. Kali has also catapulted newcomer Gael Fiori to the highest seat in the clan, which is certain to raise the brows of longstanding and/or ambitious clan members.

Fledglings — Kali has a history of turning people just to be her pawns. Her fledglings are hers and if she requires anything at all, she expects them to comply – not that it works out 100% of the time. That said, Kali will not turn anyone without doing the mental gymnastics required to convince herself what she's doing is noble and good for the person and/or the greater good. Whether that's true or not is up for plotting.

Liaison Clients — Due to the nature of Reardon business, Kali's reach extends far and wide into the city and its people, all culminating in her ability to be a people provider. A hunter needs a witch? Kali has one in her back pocket. Someone needs humans or a wolf, hunter, or vampire? Kali can have it arranged, for a price. Kali largely does not care for what monsters need other monsters for, so long as her "employee" isn't murdered.

Liaison Employees — Employee is a generous word for the monsters (yes, humans are also monsters) her hands can reach. Not many of these connections were made with good will or intent, no matter how much Kali may trick herself into believing. Maybe it was blackmail, maybe wrong place - wrong time, maybe they needed some sort of protection, a favor. Perhaps a drug peddler or general lower-rung employee of the Reardons cannot deliver on what is needed. Kidnapping is on the table. But Kali always collects on debts - a lesson she learned very early in her human life.

Special Employees (Escorts) — Sex work is not criminal in nature and it is this belief, in addition to her past,that drives Kali to hold her escorts very close to her heart. She treats this area of business as completely separate from the typical criminal activity in the clan and refuses to acknowledge any possible blurred lines. This side is too pure to her.

Other — Kali is an old lady and well connected in the city, which opens up a lot of possibilities for people from her past and present. I'm largely up for anything, and particularly where the politics of the city are concerned- vampire or otherwise.

current connections (this is mostly for me to keep track)

Spiritual Discourses of Huzur Maharaj of the Radhasoami Faith - Spiritual Awakening Radio Podcast

One of the great prolific writers and spiritual architects of Sant Mat, the Path of the Masters, also known as the Radhasoami tradition, is Huzur Maharaj Rai Saligram of Agra. Such was his stature that his initiating guru Swami Ji Maharaj (Seth Shiv Dayal Singh) of Agra once said, "I do not know whether I am Rai Salig Ram's guru or he is mine." Today's satsang is based on the writings of Huzur Maharaj including: Prem Patra (Love Discourses, volumes one and two) as well as, Radhasoami Mat Prakash (Light on the Teachings of the Lord of the Soul). Radhaswami Mat Prakash is a spiritual classic written in English by Huzur himself. Being the first Sant Mat book to be published in English it was read by many early spiritual seekers in the US and Canada interested in Sant Mat near the beginning of the Twentieth Century. An emissary and spiritual successor of Huzur by the name of Shiv Brat Lal once went on a long journey giving spiritual talks introducing many to the teachings of the Radhasoami Faith, visiting Lahore, Calcutta, Rangoon, traveling to Hong Kong, Singapore, Java, Japan and even San Francisco in the US, where he gave lectures at two locations in 1911!

Read-Alike Friday: Moth by Melody Razak

Moth by Melody Razak

Ma and Bappu are liberal intellectuals teaching at the local university. Their fourteen year-old daughter—precocious, headstrong Alma—is soon to be married. Alma is mostly interested in the wedding shoes and in spinning wild stories for her beloved younger sister Roop, a restless child obsessed with death.

Times are bad for girls in India. The long-awaited independence from British rule is heralding a new era of hope but also of anger and distrust. Political unrest is brewing, threatening to unravel the rich tapestry of Delhi—a city where different cultures, religions and traditions have co-existed for centuries. When Partition happens and the British Raj is fractured overnight, the family is violently torn apart, and its members are forced to find increasingly desperate ways to survive.

Honor by Thrity Umrigar

Indian American journalist Smita has returned to India to cover a story, but reluctantly: long ago she and her family left the country with no intention of ever coming back. As she follows the case of Meena—a Hindu woman attacked by members of her own village and her own family for marrying a Muslim man—Smita comes face to face with a society where tradition carries more weight than one’s own heart, and a story that threatens to unearth the painful secrets of Smita’s own past. While Meena’s fate hangs in the balance, Smita tries in every way she can to right the scales. She also finds herself increasingly drawn to Mohan, an Indian man she meets while on assignment. But the dual love stories of Honor are as different as the cultures of Meena and Smita themselves: Smita realizes she has the freedom to enter into a casual affair, knowing she can decide later how much it means to her.

In this tender and evocative novel about love, hope, familial devotion, betrayal, and sacrifice, Thrity Umrigar shows us two courageous women trying to navigate how to be true to their homelands and themselves at the same time.

The Ministry of Utmost Happiness by Arundhati Roy

The Ministry of Utmost Happiness takes us on a journey of many years – the story spooling outwards from the cramped neighbourhoods of Old Delhi into the burgeoning new metropolis and beyond, to the Valley of Kashmir and the forests of Central India, where war is peace and peace is war, and where, from time to time, ‘normalcy’ is declared.

The tale begins with Anjum—who used to be Aftab—unrolling a threadbare Persian carpet in a city graveyard she calls home. We encounter the odd, unforgettable Tilo and the men who loved her—including Musa, sweetheart and ex-sweetheart, lover and ex-lover; their fates are as entwined as their arms used to be and always will be. We meet Tilo’s landlord, a former suitor, now an intelligence officer posted to Kabul. And then we meet the two Miss Jebeens: the first a child born in Srinagar and buried in its overcrowded Martyrs’ Graveyard; the second found at midnight, abandoned on a concrete sidewalk in the heart of New Delhi.

As this ravishing, deeply humane novel braids these lives together, it reinvents what a novel can do and can be. The Ministry of Utmost Happiness demonstrates on every page the miracle of Arundhati Roy’s storytelling gifts.

The Book of Everlasting Things by Aanchal Malhotra

On a January morning in 1938, Samir Vij first locks eyes with Firdaus Khan through the rows of perfume bottles in his family’s ittar shop in Lahore. Over the years that follow, the perfumer’s apprentice and calligrapher’s apprentice fall in love with their ancient crafts and with each other, dreaming of the life they will one day share. But as the struggle for Indian independence gathers force, their beloved city is ravaged by Partition. Suddenly, they find themselves on opposite sides: Samir, a Hindu, becomes Indian and Firdaus, a Muslim, becomes Pakistani, their love now forbidden. Severed from one another, Samir and Firdaus make a series of fateful decisions that will change the course of their lives forever. As their paths spiral away from each other, they must each decide how much of the past they are willing to let go, and what it will cost them.

Lush, sensuous, and deeply romantic, The Book of Everlasting Things is the story of two lovers and two nations, split apart by forces beyond their control, yet bound by love and memory. Filled with exquisite descriptions of perfume and calligraphy, spanning continents and generations, Aanchal Malhotra’s debut novel is a feast for the senses and the heart.

[sillyandquiteawkward]

Haiii I wrote a big essay on the Bayley family a while ago but I'm still insane about them so I'm assigning them pigeons I think they'd be based purely on vibes

Artemus – Strasser pigeon

The very reason I wanted to start this was because I was reading up on the smartest pigeons in the world, and lo and behold, it fits VERY WELL with our good (?) Doctor Bayley. Strasser pigeons are one of the most intelligent birds out there, being able to easily observe patterns and formulate extensive escape plans even under stress, with one of the websites I was reading about them in saying "From the moment they hatch, these [birds] are likely thinking about how to escape from their nest", which is just the Artemus mood ever. I like to think this bird is a side project for Dr. Bayley to relax from the Other, Bigger projects, but then he ends up attached much like every other project he does <3

Octavia – King pigeon

For Octavia I wanted to go with a primarily 'utilitarian' bird, given her workaholic tendencies and need to show off how good at working she is, and Kings perfectly fit that description because they are the show offs of the pigeon world. They can be used for racing, messaging AND for therapy, which I think would be right up Octavia's alley in terms of . Everything. She could use a fluffy feathery friend in my head and these guys are great for anything you need them to be, and also very clever if you're willing to spend some time teaching them stuff. Octavia is the kinda gal who would probably go to beauty competitions with her bird in my head (because 1 her bird is the prettiest one and 2 she would like to win thank you very much) <3

Ignatius – Lahore pigeon

I chose Lahore for Ignatius because I remember seeing you talk about once how he's the most 'successful' one out of the Bayleys despite not being as practical so to speak, and that immediately made me think about this breed of pigeons. Not only is their contrast really nice and fitting for a sleek personality like Ignatius, but they are also one of the most popular pigeon species in the world, praised for their beauty, sociability, and high adaptability rates compared to other such birds– much like Iggy is 2 me <3

Sorry for no pics im. Shy but you can look em up and tell me if I got it teehoo

omg hiiiiiii ilu. speaking of the bayleys and pigeons. they are pigeons in my wing au. ouhg this art feels so old (four years ago)

my thoughts about this is i wanted art to be a common pigeon, bc hes got that little bit of iridescence that is akin to him thinking hes hot shit. i cant remember what breed oct was, but she was just a light brown pigeon type, maybe shes not as flashy but gets stuff done. and i wanted iggy to be very very plain, but pretty in his own right as a white dove (peace love etc)

but i really like the species you picked out too!! i really like the idea that the bayleys keep pigeons, i think that pairs well with their trading company background.

i think art could get really into breeding pigeons and he would tend to the smarter breeds i think, although hes not terribly fond of cleaning up after animals. the delight of genetics could just outweigh the animal care. hed have fun drawing them too. old man sits on his clinic rooftop next to his birds when the insomnia hits but his brain wont let him Work on his science. also would pair well with the thought hed breed animal test subjects :(

i think oct would like the utility of the king pigeons, but she wouldnt bother to raise the birds herself at all. thats not in her wheelhouse to care about, but shed still call all the company birds HER birds, even if she didnt raise and care for them. she knows all their names (as a good leader should) and probably has a strong affection for just one in particular. definitely a fan of the prettiest/most useful bird of the bunch.

ooo and i really like the lahore for iggy, they kind of also just Look like him with its long feet feathers and different shape. [ignatius voice] i just think their neat (hiding how much he relates to them)! iggy would be the one to be arms deep in the flock at all times (oh to escape paperwork and management by hiding in the barn with the animals (not to mention sending off the carrier pigeons and watching them leave with a bit of yearning)

Why Home Tutor Service in Lahore is Becoming the Preferred Choice for Quality Education

In recent years, the demand for home tutor service in Lahore has seen a significant rise. With increasing academic competition, customized learning needs, and the growing importance of one-on-one attention, parents and students alike are turning toward private tutoring as a viable solution. Whether it's for exam preparation, conceptual clarity, or skill development, home tutors in Lahore are transforming the educational landscape.

Personalized Learning Experience

One of the major benefits of hiring a home tutor in Lahore is the personalized attention a student receives. Unlike in a classroom setting, where a teacher has to manage many students at once, a home tutor tailors the pace, teaching style, and focus areas based on a student’s individual needs. This customized approach often leads to better understanding, improved grades, and increased confidence.

Flexibility and Convenience

Another advantage of home tutoring services in Lahore is the flexibility they offer. Students can schedule sessions based on their availability and learn at their own pace. This is particularly helpful for students involved in extracurricular activities or those who have unique learning preferences. Moreover, with home tutoring, there’s no need for long commutes—learning happens in the comfort of your home.

Expert Tutors for Every Subject

The market for home tutor services in Lahore has grown to include qualified professionals across all subjects and academic levels. From primary school support to A-Level and university preparation, students can now find expert tutors for mathematics, science, English, computer science, and even niche subjects. Many home tutors also assist with entrance exam prep, including MDCAT, ECAT, and SAT.

Parental Involvement and Progress Tracking

With home tutoring, parents can stay more involved in their child’s academic journey. Regular feedback from the tutor helps in tracking progress, identifying challenges, and setting achievable goals. This kind of transparency builds trust and leads to more effective educational outcomes.

A Booming Industry in Lahore

The home tutoring industry in Lahore is rapidly evolving. Numerous online platforms and agencies now connect students with verified and experienced tutors. These platforms often allow for reviews, trial classes, and progress tracking, making it easier for families to choose the right fit.

Final Thoughts

In a city like Lahore, where academic excellence is highly valued, home tutor services have become an essential part of student success. By offering convenience, quality instruction, and personalized support, these services are reshaping how education is delivered outside the traditional classroom.

First impression: there is a lot going on in this art work. It can be very overwhelming to look at and take everything in.

5 facts:

1. Shahzia Sikander is a Pakistani-American visual artist that works across a variety of mediums, including drawing, painting, printmaking, and animation

2. Sikander became the first woman to teach in the Miniature Painting Department at National College of Arts in Lahore, Pakistan.

3. Sikander’s breakthrough work “The Scroll” received a Shakir Ali Award, which is NCA’s highest merit award

4. Sikander’s work is included in the permanent collection of prestigious institutions worldwide.

5. Sikander created “Hood’s Red Rider No. 2” because she “wanted to create female protagonists who were proactive, playful, confident, intelligent, and connected to the past in imaginative ways”.

Looking at the artwork more closely I still see that there is a lot going on. After learning more about the artist and the art she created, I can see the story being told. It’s the story of a woman gaining her power back. A woman who doesn’t need a man to be her hero.

PREDERMINATION AND HEER

I lisped in numbers etcetera.

Both were professors, Mum and Dad

And in different languages and so

We played etymology at breakfast

Tracing Maa Mamma Maman Mata

Matri Mater Maadar to Mother

Their spectrum was our spectrum

From Sanskrit via Faarsi

( Add Professor Karam Singh uncle here

With his double MA in Punjabi and Persian

And his All India Wrestling Champion Award

And undying brotherhood with Gama Pehalwaan

And the difficult visas after Partition

And the tears of families in Lahore and Bhatinda

Of tenderness and joy and helplessness

Against Radcliffe and Mountbatten and Empire

And the anytime recitation of Heer Waris Shah

“ Awwal Hamd Khuda da Vird Keejey

Ishq kita su jag da mool miyan”

Praise Him at outset Who made Love the root cause of the Existence of the Universe )

Seeds sown that neither evil tongues,

Rash judgments, nor the sneers of selfish men,

Nor greetings where no kindness is, nor all

The dreary intercourse of daily life,

Shall e'er prevail against

This rich tapestry daily silkenly woven

Lines burst out at thirteen that neither study

Nor bureaucratic lifetime could destroy.

What else could I have done ?

I embraced it with joy - poetry

I do love teaching but alone

It takes the shape of learning and research

Which again ends up like essence of rose

In words that seek to meld with melody.

I wait for it to come night and day

I do not wait in vain. This I might say.

( ASA )
