Book review: The Man Without Shelter by Indrajit Garai

The Man Without Shelter by Indrajit Garai is an emotive and powerful novel. It speaks strongly against discrimination and prejudice, and lays bare the damage that can eo easily be unintentionally wrought by a society that has grown accustomed to and comfortable with the ease of looking the other way instead of extending the hand of friendship, or offering support without the guarantee of reciprocation...

Shiroi Kumo - The Lonely

"the one alone. forsaken. surely this can't be surprising. of course the defining characteristic of your life is how achingly alone you are in it. fog is rolling in around you, chilling you to the bone, and you can't bring yourself to care. throngs of faceless people bustle past, knocking into you, but your apology is swallowed up by the din of the crowd, lost forever.

you are standing in an icy puddle, getting your best shoes wet. you are lost in a foreign country and you can't read the signs that might point you back to where you came from. there is a glass wall separating you from everyone around you, you could bang and yell all you like but the sounds will just fall muffled on their indifferent ears.

you could lay down right here and curl up, and others would just step over or around you, your pain nothing more than a mild inconvenience on their commute to do important things. you are being left behind. if you faded away, would people even notice? sure, they might notice the absence of all the things you've done for them. they might even miss all those little gestures.

...but that's not really the same thing as missing you, is it? now, now. there's no need to get upset. what good has that ever done for anyone? just allow yourself to drift away, quiet and peaceful. at least here, you're somewhere you're wanted."

Sometimes the way you stop a criminal isn't by beating them up but by helping them. Today I met a mugger who was only doing it cause he couldn't afford to eat or live in a house or anything so I took him out to lunch and directed him to the Lilycove Homeless Shelter. He was so thankful he gave me a hug. A warm meal and a place to stay can go a long way.

Shout out to the Lilycove Homeless Shelter, the people who run it are kind, caring, and always ready to help. You can stay as long as you need and they'll do their best to help you. They also make the best Rice Balls in Hoenn, if that's any incentive.

Admittedly I realize that most homeless people in Lilycove probably aren't on this site for obvious reasons but I think everyone should know about the good work these people do.

so like, aw man, this is not what you asked for but AVSNAVDJSVDA so you mentioned a theoretical timeline in which wars does have to go back to his era and has to live on his own in an era that hates him, and I still think abt that sometimes because I’m a sucker for angst. but because I’m an even BIGGER sucker for hurt/comfort, I still hold on in my heart that somehow, SOMEWAY, in that theoretical timeline, legend would not take no for an answer, and— being as stubborn as he is— somehow through magic and the spite and willpower of demanding a happy ending, manage to find wars down the line anyway.

If anyone could do it, it would probably be legend, honestly. Drag chboy back into comfort and safety and the arms of someone who loves him no matter what other people say or do. And honestly, Legend’s earned it. They both have. I know ranch au exists but the idea of both theoretical ends being soft because they just love each other That Much is one that warms me heart.

while it makes me sad that they're not All together, i personally love this idea to bits and i think legend would absolutely be the one to flip off fate and tell it to go fuck itself. the narrative of that is so heartwarming ??

he's done nothing but save the world since he was nine at the request of beings he'll never be able to truly comprehend. he's been beaten and bloodied out of necessity and he's been starved bc nine year olds that come from orchards r not taught how to hunt. the world forced him—a little kid—to destroy himself for it, and he never had any say in the matter. and eventually, he gave up trying to find a hole in the agreement or a promise of freedom between the lines. it's for the safety and security of the kingdom, after all

he never valued himself enough to try harder to escape it. but warriors? he loves wars more than anything. he'd Do anything for the guy. and when legend realizes that wars is prolly gonna get sucked back into his own shitty era, filled with shitty people who routinely bite the hands that feed them, legend felt So much dread at that thought.

warriors deserves better. warriors deserves So much better than that. and thanks to wars, legend now believes that he himself deserves better than this—ripped away from his partner as thanks for keeping humanity alive. he's in a better spot mentally, and now that he truly has smth to fight for that's not just an assigned task by a goddess, he's pretty much unstoppable

it could go two ways—either legend goes to wars' era and lives w him, or he takes wars backs to his own. since wars is in genuine danger of people attacking him in his era, once they have their tearful reunion, they prolly go back to legend's time If they were able. legend might have enough power to make two warps (wow! convenient!)

i rly love the idea of them leaving legend's current house to ravio, and they move to find a bigger space to settle down. they 100% buy a nice home on a more peaceful side of the kingdom and they live in the same space and breathe the same air and they have Never been happier. legend starts a garden and teaches wars how to care for plants n shit. wars becomes an author like he always wanted. they already have enough money to retire cuz bein a hero is a very lucrative business, so their house is Nice and they never go hungry and also they get a dog . i said so.

the end. they live like an old married couple . i Said so

thinking abt byler with their dog watching a movie on the couch all snuggled up in some blankets (plural, bc will hogs them & leaves mike to freeze to death [will rejects these slanderous claims, says mike's being a big baby]).. their dog's got its head in mike's lap and his feet against will's ribs in the weirdest most endearing position ever that cannot possibly be comfortable And Yet. mike scratches n rubs the little mongrel's chest n asks him if he's enjoying their boys night. This Is Real n True

04.  the emperor  :  how much respect does your muse have for authority ? why is this ? 08.  strength  :  how does your muse use their energy ? do they tend to work towards their goals steadily or in bursts ?

a collection of muse headcanon questions inspired by the major arcana of the tarot

04.  the emperor  :  how much respect does your muse have for authority ? why is this ?

She doesn't have as much respect for authority as she used to. The GCPD is one thing; Khare respects the officers who come by for breakfast in the early hours of the morning but she doesn't trust any of them, not enough to come clean about her own problems. She respects the fact that they work a dangerous, difficult job but it's hard knowing if the friendly officer who loves bacon with his pancakes might be taking bribes on the side or worse, his loyalties lay elsewhere than to his duty. She may be new in Gotham but Khare listens to whispers amongst the crowd, holding onto rumours just in case they're true. When it comes to authority in general, Khare doesn't believe they can help her and deep down even fears what she experienced is not only condoned by the powers that be but is facilitated by them. She went missing after all. How can so many people vanish without trace every year with seemingly no effort being made to find them? How deep does this rabbit hole go and would she simply 'disappear' again if she talked to the police about any of this? She'd rather not find out and would rather pretend to be oblivious to it all, keeping authority firmly at arm's length.

08.  strength  :  how does your muse use their energy ? do they tend to work towards their goals steadily or in bursts ?

Steadily. Khare's energy levels are low but it is consistant, like a dimly flickering bulb that continues burning much longer than anybody expects it to. Her heartrate is barely higher than that of a corpse, heart beating just a few ticks per minute and while she yawns and pauses for a moment to remember what she's doing or saying, she continues on, often staying awake for days at a time when others would have tired long ago. Only on rare occasions when startled or downright fearful for her life will Khare get a burst of energy, increased electrical activity in her muscles forcing her body to function beyond her natural limitations. During her escape from the experimental facility she was held at, she cleared a twenty foot jump over barbed wire fencing and sprinted off into the surrounding mountains, trudging through hundreds of miles of harsh terrain back to civilisation.
