i love love love the jily community here on tumblr (and the discord server- @jilymicrofics is the place to ask if you want to join). everyone i've interacted with so far has been so damn sweet, it's unreal. they're half the reason i'm inspired to write jily these days.

i don't have a proper tagging system on my blog. i used to keep wanting to create one, but i know i won't keep up with it, so i've made peace with that now. i usually do tag posts that i make (especially if they contain sensitive information).

i might be delayed in replying to messages, asks, or tags, but i promise it's not personal!!! my People Interaction Energy has a mind of its own, and i often just don't have it in me to answer in the moment.

Maayaiya Sol - Part 2

A/N: here's the much awaited sequel. @harinishivaa had lots of fun working on this with you 😊

Arulmozhi was completely starstruck to silence. He could not believe what he was seeing. As the flute started playing, he could see his Akka Kundavai coming in with some little girls holding her hands  out of the corner of his eye but that was not what captivated him. His Vanathi looking feather in pink sari, pink turban with a peacock father tucked in it and flower garland around her neck, every aspect reflecting Lord Krishna was descending, yes, actually descending to the floor, being suspended by makeshift cloth ropes with some of her companions helping her by supporting her weight. Kundavai came to the podium and greeted her Patti by touching her feet. She sneaked a glance at her Thambi before taking her seat on the other side Sembayin Madevi and suppressed a laugh when she saw him staring at her Uyir Thozi with gaping mouth. The girls started singing and arranging themselves into their positions with Vanathi in the middle impersonating Krishna with her hands in the mudra of a flute. Then Vanathi started singing.

Moththathila Siththathula ,Thiththida Vandhen

Un Nethikkulla, Poothi Vaikka Vanthen(2)

Arulmozhi was already impressed by her dance skills and how she was moving her body to the tune so effortlessly while enjoying herself, he wasn't prepared to hear her sing. What a sweet voice! How was he deprived of hearing her sing for so long?

Ratchasa Maamane

Rathiriyin Sooriyane

Kovaipalam Pole

Nee Kobam Kollathe

Un Aaram Budhi

Thera Budhithaan(2)

She was thoroughly enjoying herself, enacting the words she sang. And he was enjoying himself, in her voice, her expressions and her mannerisms. Then she was back again in mid-air, the cloth ropes around her and being pulled up by her companions. Part of him was worried about her moving her body while she was suspended like that - what if she falls? What if she loses her balance? But another part of him was smiling at how lovely her Maya Kannan persona is.

Ho, Veeran Veeran Veeran Veeran

Enga Mamane Veeran

Aalamaram Vera Pola

Azham Aana Veeran

Aattam Kaana Vaikka Pogiraan

Aattukutti Theran

Naatu Thalaivan… Motcham Kolgiraan

Oh Oo, Meesavacha Miruga Mirugane

This was his Vanathi? The seemingly shy and  quiet Kodumbalur Kula Vilakku?The girl dancing in front of him was so confident, so talented, so immersed in her own performance. Just then his Patti, touched his shoulder and pointed towards Senthan Amudhan who just arrived.He gave a small smile and folded his hands to acknowledge him but in his mind, he was a bit annoyed. Why are people arriving in the middle of the performance and disrupting him from watching his dear?

Moththathila Siththathula

Thiththida Vandhen

Un Nethikkulla

Poothi Vaikka Vanthen

He briefly looked at his Akka and saw her smiling at her Uyir Thozi's performance and  looking around, probably for her Vana Kula Ilavarase. Oh right! He is the Kamsa Mama who would be dancing with Vanathi. Is it too late for him to gatecrash this spectacle and dance with her instead of Vallavaraiyan? Maybe not, maybe he should content himself with watching her.

Just then there was a howl and he looked on as Vanathi and the other dancers turned back to face the entry of some men, covered in black paint from head to toe and wearing black clothes, representing the Kamsa Mama's men. And with them, Vallavaraiyan Vanthiyathevan, also covered in black paint and black clothes with red adornments announced his arrival with his part of the song 

Thomsa Vidham Thomsa Vidham

Imsai Mozhi

Amsamena Amsamena… Vamsavazhi

Vantharasan Vantharasan

Kamsamugan Naan

He descended the steps, no, it seemed like he was hopping down the steps singing, proudly showing off his Kamsa Mama cameo with the fake claws and big anklets around his ankles. 

Nakkeranin Nakkeranin Puthirane

Nithamudan Nithamudan Sathiyane

Muthu Nigar Muthu Nigar

Otrai Magan Naan

He expected nothing less from his friend. He knew Vanthiyathevan to be a fierceless warrior, versatile traveller, incredible charmer and a loyal friend. It was now clear to him that the Vana Kula Ilavarase was also a extremely good performer. He once again looked at his Akka, who was staring at the newly arrived performer with amusement. He inwardly thanked his Aditha Anna for introducing this multi-talented man into their lives. But it was now time to refocus on his heroine again.

Balagane Balagane

Balagane Balagane

Andangalin Andangalin Suttrugalai

Kandangalai Kandangalai Vendreduthu

Konda Oru Konda Oru

Komagan Naan

Vanthiyathevan easily stole the show with his eccentricity. And he also stole almost all of the audience's attention. He noticed how his Patti was viewing his friend with admiration and his Akka simply gazing at him. But Vanthiyathevan failed to capture everyone's attention as Arulmozhi refused to let Vanathi out of his sight.

Ennigaraai Ennigaraai Vinnulagil

Mannulagil Mannulagil Chanthiranai

Manthiranai Manthiranai

Vanthavano Yaar

Kathum Kadal Kathum Kadal

Ettum Thoda

Sooriyanai Sooriyanai Thottu Ida

Vada Madurai

Valam Varuven Naan

He saw Vanathi stand on the steps, hands on her hips with a small amusing smile on her lips. Occasionally she sneaked a look at Kundavai as if to say "Aren't you seeing your lover overacting Akka?". But at the same time he couldn't imagine Vanathi dancing so comfortably with anyone else. Forget dancing, he couldn't even imagine her being so natural around anyone else other than Kundavai and Vanthiyar. 'These two should have been blood siblings ' he thought looking at the Maya Kannan and Kamsa Mama roleplayers on stage as Vanathi started singing the next part.

O O Ho O o, Ennam Illayaa

Thinnam Illayaa

Naan Chinna Pillayaa

Nee Koochchalittu Atchiseiya

Koochamillaya

Two small girls from the group pushed Vallavaraiyan to the side where his fellow raakshasa men were waiting to catch him. He again watched Vanathi sing, her body moving to the tune of the song and her facial expressions mirroring the meaning behind the lyrics. He also noticed Vanthiyathevan look in their direction with a grin but he knew who was the recipient of that grin. He saw Kundavai smile softly at Kamsa Mama, Amudhan seated near her looking at the pair in mild curiosity.

Thollai Seivathaa… Pillai Vaaivathaa

Palli Kolvathaa

Nee Kattumullil Vetti Pola

Matti Kolvathaa

He wondered if he could make eye contact with Vanathi too. But she seemed to be deep in her role barely noticing the audience now and focused on her performance.

Hey Ayyare Ayyare

Aadu Mama Ayyare, Ho

Ye Thaiyaa Thaiyaa

Thaiyaare, Ho

He sat up straighter and continued to look at Vanathi, silently asking her to look at his direction just once, and, as if by some miracle he saw her eyes meet his own with a playful smile playing on her lips just for while because Kamsa Mama suddenly stood up, now wearing a mask and circling around Maya Kannan and the Gopis in mid-air, with the help of the cloth ropes just like how Vanathi did in the beginning of the song. 

Thom Thadak Thom Thadak

Thom Thom Thom Tha Thom Tha

Thom Tha Thakida Thin Thin Thom…

A different beat started playing and with it the performance also started to get a bit aggressive. Vanthiyathevan and Vanathi started dancing on opposite sides facing each other. They were mirroring some dance moves and at one point Vanathi lifted one of legs and swiped it over Vanthiyathevan's head, him ducking in time. Arulmozhi gaped once more. When did they have time to practise all this? And what coordination! They embodied their respective roles perfectly, taunting and challenging each other. And after a while, both of them were again in mid-air with the Gopis and Rakshasa men in charge of keeping them airborne by pulling on the ropes and moving about. They were now enacting the Krishna-Kamsa fight.

"Is that even safe?" Arulmozhi asked, breaking the silence "That looks dangerous. I'm concerned for her". He didn't notice his Patti looking at him with  raised eyebrows.

"She? So you're not even a little concerned for Vanthiyar?" Kundavai asked from the other side.

"He has survived worse. He'll be fine" Arulmozhi said and Kundavai let out a gasp as if in disbelief of her Thambi's utter disregard for his Nanban.

"Kanne" Sembiyan Madevi interjected " Vanathi is stronger than you give her credit for and she has done sufficient practise with those ropes so she'll be fine. You don't have to worry about her " 

"I wasn't worried. I was just curious, "Arulmozhi said, attempting to look disinterested.lo

"Your facial expressions and your words are not at all matching, Thambi " Kundavai mocked him before Madevi quietened the two to watch the final part of the performance.

Now, Maya Kannan and Kamsa Mama was circling with their hands intertwined, showing a wrestling action and then Kamsa lies flat and is slowly lowered to the ground with Kanna acting as if beating on his chest to show the Kamsa Vadh and the inner message of 'good will always triumph over evil'. 

The performance came to an end and the players all gathered on the stage with Vanathi and Vanthiyathevan in the centre. They folded their hands and thanked everyone for their patience and received a very loud round of applause and a standing ovation,even from the royal family. 

Arulmozhi still couldn't tear his eyes off Vanathi who was basking in all the appreciation - a new side of Vanathi that he only managed to see now - an energetic and full of surprises Vanathi.

*****

Vanathi hummed to herself in excitement. 

The dance had gone very well,and she had gained a lot of appreciation from everyone, including Sembiyan Patti once more, as well as both the Emperor and empress. 

She had seen Ponniyin Selvar watching her quite a few times, directly glancing at her, and she had blushed every time their eyes met. It had gotten to the extent that she had just turned into a ripe, red tomato. The smirk on his ethereal face told her that he was pleased that she had such a reaction to him. 

Did this mean that he liked her?   

‘Pochu, you’ve started daydreaming, Vanathi!’ She chided herself, removing her turban with the peacock feather, the rest of her hair cascading down her back in curls, an effect of all the work she and her friends had put to perfect the hair style for the dance. 

 She blinked at herself in the mirror for a second, before starting to remove her jewelry, when she heard footsteps behind her, entering cautiously. 

“I was wondering when you would get here, Akka,” she said, focused on her jewelry. “You never take so much time to come and see me after I perform.”

When Kundavai Akka didn’t respond, Vanathi knew that she was waiting for Vanathi to continue. 

“Sembiyan Patti told me she was so proud of me, Akka! You know how much I adore her. As well as Chakravarthy Appa and Vanama Amma,” she said, intricately removing her intertwined necklaces laid on the table. “But Akka… do you know… what your thambi thought?” 

“Why don’t you ask him yourself?” 

That wasn’t… Akka! Oh Ishvari! 

She looked at the mirror, seeing Ponniyin Selvar’s twinkling eyes gazing at her, in all her open hair, less jewels glory. She blushed red, but could not bear to not look at him. 

She smiled, her coral red lips bright, and said, “Ilavarase, thaangala? (Ilavarase, you here?)”

“Maya Kannanai paarka vandhen (I came to see Maya Kannan). I didn’t expect to find the same mischievous damsel I met by the banks of the Ponni,” his eyes sparkled, as if reflecting her heart’s delight.

“I didn’t expect my yaanai paagan, ayya,” she blushed when she said ‘my’ but didn’t try to correct herself. Something told her that she could open her heart and tell him what she wanted to. In that very moment, she felt that he would reciprocate. 

“Your Yaanai Paagan has been waiting for you, my lady. Will you accompany me for a ride later this evening?” He whispered, holding something behind him, making her curious. 

“I will,” she said shyly, gasping when he brought out freshly strung jasmine for her. She looked at them, blushing again, saying, “Thevare?”

Calling him the equal of Deva made her blush red and look down for a minute, before looking back up at him. She gently took the flowers he offered her. 

“Wear them, Devi. They suit you,” with a smile that would charm anyone, he left, allowing Vanathi to mull in the surprise, the best one she had gotten. 

****

Well, she had been wrong.

This was an even better surprise. She was still wearing something similar to what she wore for the dance, letting it fall around her. However, she had a shawl draped over her, as is actual protocol for royal women. 

Her Prince approached her, seated on an elephant, the bare back of the animal letting her know that she had guessed him right. She smiled as he stretched out a hand to her. 

Gently taking his hand, she got on, blushing and eyes widening at the sparks that ran through her arm, at the contact between them. 

“Thevare.”

“Devi,” he whispered, his eyes taking in the beautiful princess like he hadn’t seen her before. He looked particularly pleased when he saw her hair decorated with the Jasmine he had given. “Devi, hold on to me. We are just going to a place I think you would really like.”

“Secrets of Thanjai?” she asked softly, delicately wrapping her arms around his waist, her head leaning against his shoulder, one of his hands holding both her linked palms gently. 

“Secrets of Arulmozhi,” he said softly, directing the elephant to the place of this mind. 

She relaxed, enjoying being around him, holding on to him and going on the elephant ride. He had given her everything in this single moment- she was as ready for the end of her life now than ever before.

They went on the elephant, reaching a clearing where the sound of water could be clearly heard. 

“Devi,” he smiled, gently patting the elephant down, his touch more than enough for the animal to obey. 

“Where are we, Thevare?” she asked softly, her eyes glowing in wonder, reflecting the Sun’s light in them, sending his heart into somersaults, ones he welcomed whole heartedly. Oh how she had changed him without trying to! 

Was this not love? Pushing your partner to be their best self?

“A place I found when I was a child, one that even Anna and Akka have never come to with me,” he held her hand still, taking her through the trees, reaching the clearing. Her gasp, followed by delightful laughter filled him with joy, and a sense of right. She was that rightness in his life. 

“Thevare, this is beautiful. How did I get lucky enough to be brought here?”

“I promised myself, Vanathi, that I will bring only the woman I wish to marry, the one I want to eke out my life with, here,” he smiled softly, feeling his hope blossom into surety at the glow in her dark orbs. 

“Thevare?” she questioned softly, not stopping gazing at him. 

“Devi, you have filled my life with meaning that I scarcely knew and understood before,” he said, walking towards her and grasping her palms in his.”You have stood with me, and not lost faith in me, loved me through my miscommunication and idiocy. In truth, I do not deserve you, anbe, but it is only you I want. Will you accept this fool in love, Kodumbalur Kula Vilakke? As your husband?”

“Swami,” she whispered, her palms hesitant at first, firm soon, caressing his cheeks. He closed his eyes, wanting to feel her touch. She held him gently, whispering, “Swami, open your eyes?”

He obediently opened his eyes, only his training preventing the sound of a gasp leaving him. Her eyes were luminous with her love, so open and joyous for him to see, that he wondered how he ever missed it before. 

“To be yours is the reason I have been born, Natha,” she whispered softly, tipping her forehead to his, making him smile and wind his arms around her waist, tugging her close into his embrace. 

“And I have been made to marry you, Vanathi. I love you.”

“I love you, Thevare,” he smiled at the rosy hue that darkened on her cheeks, not moving away from her for even a second. He held her even closer, pressing his forehead to hers a little more. 

Everything could wait, he thought, as they moved closer and closer to each other, intertwined, as if they had become one. 

And they had, that day, with his words of promise and love, and her words of acceptance and love.
