Flufftober Day 11: poetry, art, music, craft

OCs: Nathara Emmeline Nicolette Gaudreau & Ashwin Kedar

Nathara always loved poetry. She’d write it in secret even after her father forbade it. Something about how her time would be better used learning to navigate court politics. As if she couldn’t already out-maneuver anyone you put in front of her. She had quite a mastery over words in the throne room, but the written word was a challenge she quite enjoyed.

In poems, words could become patterns, puzzles, tapestries of visions. You could say anything, confess anything, in a poem. You could spill the darkest secrets of the empire on a page, with not one soul the wiser. This is what Nathara aspired to in the secret hours she spent tucked away in her room.

She loved music, too. Whether the sweet melodies of a lute, or poems set to sound. It was no wonder, then, who she fell in love with.

His name was Ashwin Kedar. A bard, highly praised in every kingdom. Every castle, estate, tavern, and theater, clambered for an opportunity to host him. To witness how he drew all the dullness from a room and wove it into beauty with his lute or with his tongue. His skill and charm captured the hearts of many in the empire, and Nathara was no exception. But she saw things most didn’t.

The same fingers that were nimble with the strings, were just as nimble with a knife. Those same ears that were keen to chords and harmonies that would make the angels cry, were just as keen to conversations whispered behind closed doors. Those same lips from which spilled lyrics thousands would die to hear, quirked into a smile that was always just a little too knowing.

A bard, a spy, and an assassin. Who else was she going to fall in love with?

So you’re telling me the mother of music is there?

Wow. Ironic, ashwin.

How did they know to look at and for that energy?

Sexual math energy.

Smells stormy.

The blue. The rain.

Is you’ve never experienced rain that hard. So hard. You should travel.

The Nakshaktras 🦢🌷

Hi friends! Just thought I’d share some Vedic astrology notes 👀 I may have been reading just a bit on it. Please enjoy as always! Feel free to like, comment and reblog.

🌷 Ashwini Moon are intelligent people. Despite their fiery nature the moon resides in-these people can be attracted to the water depths of spirituality. They can have strong beliefs or values in spirituality or God. Or none at all. These natives are strong minded.

🦢 Sun in Ashwini is exalted. These natives can be great physicians and healers, even great reiki healers. In Hinduism, the Ashwins are depicted as divine mystical doctors who were healers. They brought their healing energy to the earth. Therefore, Ashwini sun + other placements have a tenacity for healing through touch, but also can pick up on nursing/being a doctor of some kind.

🌷 Bharani natives are ruled by Venus. Bharani in Hindi means to bear, to give, so Bharani’s also have a dedicated, loyal nature to them. Their mars-venus interaction adds to their appeal. Represented by the elephant of burden, Bharani natives can find themselves carrying the stress of work, family, etc. especially moon in Bharani.

🦢 Sun in Bharani denotes leadership, authority, and power. Sigmund Freud had this placement. He struggled with the burden of a philosophical mind, overthinking and all-seeing. But, he delivered a great deal of help to understanding our psychology today.

🌷Krittika natives experience an exaltation in Taurus. Krittika natives fight for a cause and have strong will, and also have the power to burn. Destroy, and recreate. Krittika is symbolized by a flame, to burn away negativity. These natives may posses the power to cleanse a room just by their presence alone. They help people feel safe, and grounded. Krittika natives enjoy the pleasures of cooking, art, music or painting of any kind. Frida Kahlo had her moon in Taurus. Princess Diana’s venus also resides in Taurus.

🦢 Rohini natives and sensual, beautiful and charming. Rohini represents the cosmic force needed to create. Universal energies reside in this placement. The native can see tremendous growth by remaining disciplined and focused. Rohini also has the ability to become very spiritual ore religious. The native may find themselves constantly shedding to release, similar to a scorpio. They are represented by the snake, a sign of shedding old skin.

🌷 Mrigashira natives are represented in Hinduism by the “searching star.” “Beginning of search.” Ruling planet is mars, reflecting the great warrior within when it comes to the truth. The native can be relentless, restless for the truth. Whether it concerns themselves, others, of everyone. They can often feel the need for spiritual liberation in their life. These natives can have a deer like appearance-Brooke Shields has her moon in gemini.

🦢 Ardra natives are ruled by mercury. Strong, independent and passionate thinkers. Ardra is represented by tears, or water. Although it is ruled by mercury, natives have a watery depth to them. Their water is the clarity that comes after a storm. These natives love being helpful, solution oriented, and goal driven. Their water is pure, cleansing away any bad omen. Ardra also knows the power of knowledge, these natives are often projected as “fickle,” “naive” or “confusing” but in reality, they cover every perception, choice, and outcome. They just have a high sense of awareness.

🌷 Punarvasu natives are represented by the mother Goddess Aditi, who tends to her seeds for growth. She has power to gain wealth and abundance. Its symbol is arrows, representing the success of projects and goal oriented mind. The native can struggle mentally, due to over-intellectualizing their life. They can become severe and critical in nature. Although the represent the return of the light, they can struggle with reaching their light, and may turn to intellectualizing their emotions.

🌷 Punarvasu career paths: 🌷

-Acting, drama, entertainment, politics, writers/publisher, spiritual teacher.

🦢 Ardra’s career path: 🦢

-writer, teacher, hospice work, social services, public relations, sales, athlete.

🌷 Mrigashira career path: 🌷

-writer, poet, astrologer, researcher, engineer, gemologist, acting profession, real estate, music.

🦢 Rohini career path: 🦢

-politician, authority positions, musician, hotel business, fashion designer, model, artist, actor

🌷 Krittika career path: 🌷

-spiritual teacher, advisor, mentor, musician, dancer, singer, modeling, fashion, military career.

🦢 Bharani career path: 🦢

-publisher, writer, film/music industry, astrologer, psychologist, lawyer, financial consultant, occultist, entrepreneur.

🌷 Ashwini career path: 🌷

-psychologist, therapist, physician, reiki healer, military personnel, police, criminal courts, salespeople.

DAY 5633

Jalsa, Mumbai                  July 20/21,  2023                  Thu/Fri  12:58 AM

🪔 .. July 21 .. birthday greetings to Ef Sunanda Pandey from UAE .. Ef Shiv Shankar Roy from Assam .. and Ef Amira Mohamed from Egypt .. love and affection from the Ef Family .. 🙏🏻🚩 and may this special day remain special ever  .. love from the Ef Family ...

Finally got the reason for the Tumblr odd behaviour .. the settings have been changes .. the designing has undergone a repair .. and what was available earlier is still available , but there has to be made an effort to get to it  ..

Life lessons from Tumblr ... or just a t like the t of twitter .. !!! A bit confusing to start with , but the experts of the digital world or should we really say the experts from the changing world know the know how of all and thank the good Lord for that .. 

Effort .. needs to be made to achieve ..

And after achievement keep making the effort to keep achieving ..  ..

So the day of yesterday was filled with the soul of the strains of music and the wonderful world that it brings .. heart, mind and the imagination that none can ever understand but the creator .. and to fill that void is quite quite impossible .. even for genius that abounds about us .. so be in the still of the night and sit and listen to your own .. its meaning that is understood only ONLY by the self .. and what a wonderful feeling .. 

AND ..

the first look of Project K has just been released at this huge Film event in SanDiego called COMICON ..

I must admit unabashedly that I had no idea what Comicon meant or was until I told Abhishek, or rather asked him what this is all about and he said .. with a shocked look on his face :

“Dad .. Comicon ? this is a huge deal  ..”

and today as I partake in a Zoom call at the release I cannot but be in bewildered admiration for Nagi Ashwin and his team for putting together an astonishing film .. 

I am trying to put the teaser here .. but am not proficient enough for that .. I hope by the morning there shall be sufficient help in doing so ..

Abhishek’s reaction said it all ..

“WHOA !!! .. THIS IS HUGE .. “

well .. laddo peda all in his mouth for this .. 🤣

I must retire now .. for the nights have been long and .. well long .. so ..

My love ❤️

Amitabh Bachchan

[ MUSIC ]

[ MUSIC ] for our muses to sing / play instruments together

He's doing a twist and a turn, laughing as the song hits a musical break. There's no way he couldn't choose Whitney Houston when they were both already having a great time. Aviel's a few cocktails in and feeling fantastic. Taking Eliza's hand, he helps her twirl too - both holding karaoke microphones as he gets them both spun to face each other just in time. "Don't you wanna dance- with me baby? Don't you wanna dance... with me, girl? Hey, don't you wanna dance?" It's late, and he's content to stay out for a few more drinks at least. He pulls her close so they can share one microphone as they get to the fast part. "Don't you wanna dance, say you wanna dance, don't you wanna dance?"

CATCHING MY BREATH, STARING OUT AN OPEN WINDOW

Ming Lee is based on Ming from Turning Red. She is a 49 year old cursed human, museum director, and uses she/her pronouns. She has the power of shifting. Ming is portrayed by Lucy Liu and she is open.

CATCHING MY DEATH, AND I COULDN’T BE SURE

Is there anything more devastating in this world than letting down your own Mother? Such an experience so painful as to break her heart? Or a fear so great as to disappoint her? Maybe the only rival feeling is to become that, realizing too late that you've turned into the person you swore you never would. There are certain things Ming can live with, like your daughter having some unsavory companions and dreadful taste in music, but never ever did Ming expect her very own daughter to go behind her back to both lie, and disgrace the family. Perhaps Ming had been the issue, perhaps she had been too soft on Meilin, let her slip through the cracks and into a sea of temptation. However it was only at the very last moment, just as their mother-daughter bond was to be shattered forever, did Ming realise yes it was her fault. Fear is what drove Ming and Meilin apart, Ming was too scared to let her baby girl grow up and become a woman. Mei-Mei, too afraid to confide in her Mother and risk harsh judgment. Walls went up surrounding the two women until they were at war with each other, furious about the lack of trust and respect from both sides, not able to see just how alike they are. Not able to trust each other with the truth. It is a difficult thing to swallow your pride, and even more punishing to understand that perhaps, mother did not know best on this occasion. Saying sorry doesnt come naturally to parents who try so hard to protect their children, but Ming is trying her very best to repair the damage and make amends for the hurt she caused Meilin.

I HAD A FEELING SO PECULIAR

❀ Thomas O’Malley: Thomas makes it look so easy, adored by everyone including his children. Maybe he can share some of his secrets to a mother desperate to heal her bond with her daughter. ❀ Dashiel Parr: A troublesome little delinquent! Ming has never actually caught him doing anything wrong, but she just knows it's him rearranging the brochures in the museum! He’s just too quick! ❀ Eleanora Ashwin: Now there is a perfect example for a daughter! A polite, kind, respectful young lady who would never bad-mouth her guardians! Maybe Eleanora could help Ming teach Meilin a thing or two.

THIS PAIN WOULD BE FOR EVERMORE

Lyrics:

Waking up to find another day

The moon got lost again last night

But now the sun has finally had its say

I guess I feel alright

But it hurts when I think

When I let it sink in

It's all over me

I'm lying here in the dark

I'm watching you sleep, it hurts a lot

And all I know is

You've got to give me everything

Nothing less cause

You know I give you all of me

I give you everything that I am

I'm handin' over everything that I've got

'Cause I wanna have a really true love

Don't ever wanna have to go and give you up

Stay up till four in the morning and the tears are pouring

And I want to make it worth the fight

What have we been doing for all this time?

Baby if we're gonna do it, come on do it right

All I wanted was to know I'm safe

Don't want to lose the love I've found

Remember when you said that you would change

Don't let me down

It's not fair how you are

I can't be complete, can you give me more?

And all I know is

You got to give me everything

And nothing less 'cause

You know I give you all of me

I give you everything that I am

I'm handin' over everything that I've got

'Cause I wanna have a really true love

Don't ever wanna have to go and give you up

Stay up till four in the morning and the tears are pouring

And I want to make it worth the fight

What have we been doing for all this time?

Baby if we're gonna do it, come on do it right

Oh please, you know what I need

Save all your love up for me

We can't escape the love

Give me everything that you have

And all I know is

You got to give me everything

And nothing less cause

You know I give you all of me

Songwriter:

I give you everything that I am

I'm handin' over everything that I've got

'Cause I wanna have a really true love

Don't ever wanna have to go and give you up

Stay up till four in the morning and the tears are pouring

And I want to make it worth the fight

What have we been doing for all this time?

Baby if we're gonna do it, come on do it right

Gwen Renee Stefani / Tony Ashwin Kanal

SongFacts:

"4 in the Morning" is a song by American singer Gwen Stefani from her second studio album 'The Sweet Escape' (2006). It was written by Stefani and co-written and produced by Tony Kanal, with additional production by Mark "Spike" Stent. Interscope Records serviced the song to US contemporary hit radio on May 8, 2007, as the album's third single; elsewhere it was released in June 2007. Described as one of her favorite songs on the album, Stefani began writing the song while pregnant and finished with Kanal, drawing inspiration from Roberta Flack and Billy Idol records.

A 1980s-inspired mid-tempo synthpop ballad, "4 in the Morning" features a light keyboard during its intro through its break, a guitar, synthetic strings and a slick sheen. Lyrically, the song talks about a relationship on the edge, with the protagonist trying to save her love. "4 in the Morning" received generally positive reviews from music critics, who noted it as an improvement over her last singles, while praising its tempo and highlighting her vocals.

"4 in the Morning" failed to replicate the commercial success of previous singles in the United States, peaking at number 54 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was moderately successful elsewhere, peaking within the top-ten in Australia and New Zealand, and the top 20 in several European countries. Its accompanying music video was directed by Stefani's longtime collaborator Sophie Muller, and features Stefani lying in bed and walking around her apartment while performing the song in a melancholic mood. The song was performed during The Sweet Escape Tour and in some concerts Stefani made during 2015.

Stefani began working with No Doubt bassist Tony Kanal for her second solo studio album just after finishing the Harajuku Lovers Tour in late 2005, referring to him as her "comfort zone." The two wrote "4 in the Morning" based on a tape of melodies left from working on Stefani's debut album 'Love. Angel. Music. Baby.' (2004). In a webisode detailing the recording process of the album, Stefani stated that she was inspired by ballads such as Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly with His Song" and Billy Idol's "Eyes Without a Face", as she wanted a "nice ballad" on the record. It was one of the last songs recorded for the album, with Stefani citing it as one of her favorite songs on The Sweet Escape, because it "brings pleasure to [her] ears." The song was serviced to US contemporary hit radio on May 8, 2007 as the album's third single. A CD single, containing the album version, two remixes and its music video, was released elsewhere on June 22, 2007.

Guest stars of note:  Ashwin Gore as ONI Inspector General Akhil Ali, Sandrine Holt as Laura Song and Christina Masterson at Lily Song

Our heroes:  Tell their stories.

What important things did we learn about:

Callen:  Didn’t want Laura Song to have a gun. Sam:   Didn’t want Laura Song to have a gun. Kensi:  Found Laura Song. Deeks:   Will not be operational if anything happens to Kensi. Fatima:   Shot. Rountree:   Knows to bring a book, music or a game to a long stakeout. Kilbride:  Used by Laura Song because he was damaged.

What not so important things did we learn about:

Callen:   Scotch. Sam:   Bourbon. Kensi:   Always ‘en fuego’. Deeks:  Theorizing what his coworkers do on Sundays. Fatima:   Breaking a dinner date with Ben to be on the protection detail. Rountree:  Doesn’t think Fatima likes Ben. Kilbride:  Partial to maritime art.

Where in the world is Henrietta Lange?  Location not mentioned but her fingerprints are all over the safehouse in the episode according to Laura Song.

Who's down with OTP:  If anything happens to Kensi, Deeks is so done.

Who's down with BrOTP:  Callen and Sam were not their usual jokey self when things started all going to hell.  

Fashion review:  Callen begins the episode in a black leather jacket and black tee-shirt.  For his interview, Callen is wearing a long-sleeve dark blue tee-shirt.  Sam is wearing a red long-sleeve tee-shirt in the safehouse, a black long-sleeve tee in his interview.  Kensi spends Sunday in a pale pink sweater before wearing a black blouse to the interview.  Deeks is in a dark blue henley and khaki pants in the boatshed. In his interview, he’s wearing a muted, pale grey sweater.  Fatima starts the episode in a blue and gold plaid button-down with a black turtleneck.  In interview, she is wearing a grey and white silk blouse over a grey turtleneck.  Rountree shows up at the safehouse in an olive green jacket and white tee-shirt.  In his interview, he’s wearing a white dress shirt.  The Admiral is in a blue-grey suit, pale blue dress shirt and darker blue tie for the safe house.  For his interview, Kilbride is in a dark grey three-piece suit, pale pink dress shirt, red tie.

The day after the interviews, Callen is in a dark green and white plaid shirt.  Long-sleeve grey tee for Sam.  Cornflower blue tee for Kensi, red tee for Deeks.   Blue three-piece suit for the Admiral with a pale blue dress shirt and grey tie.

Music: None.

Any notable cut scene:  No.

Quote:  Deeks:  “Yeah, as you may already know based on your fancy file you have in front of you, Agent Blye and I are trying to adopt a child.  As hopeful parents and law enforcement officers, getting killed in the line of duty has obviously crossed our mind once or twice.  And I fully recognize everyone deals with trauma differently, but if Kensi…if Kensi, um died, I don't... I just can't imagine remaining operational with an 11-year-old.  And yet that's exactly what Laura Song chose to do.  So I just thought that information should be relayed to Sam.”

Honorable mention:

Kilbride:  “And that's what happened.  The tactical team was not there to kill her. They were there to extract her. And we didn't lose an operative. I killed a traitor.  And now that you know that, you are going to forget it.” Ali:  “Admiral, you have committed perjury and obstructed a federal investigation. I need to report all this to SECNAV.” Ali:  “She already knows, you idiot. Go ahead. Call her. I'll wait.”

Anything else:  A woman is walking to her SUV in a shopping mall parking lot.  She’s carrying several bags as she speaks to her daughter on the phone.  She refers to them as “Us Song girls” as she explains they need to meet that night, she’s leaving for business the following day.

Using the remote to open the SUV’s back door, she dumps her shopping bags, noticing a big, black SUV is creeping near her.  The woman tells her daughter that she has several things to discuss and it has to be that night.  Saying ‘I love you’ and goodbye, the big SUV pulls up.  It is Callen and Sam.  They need to take the woman – Laura Song – to a safe location.

Kensi and Deeks arrive to an empty Ops, which makes sense since it is Sunday.  Kensi wants to know where everyone is.  Deeks supplies possible Sunday morning activities for his teammates – Sam is fishing, Fatima is drag racing, Rountree’s “crushing” a hot-dog-eating contest, Callen is “smooching it up” with Anna while “you and I are at the beach, drinking mojitos out of a can.”  Except of course, they’re in the office because Kilbride called them in.  Kensi wonders what Kilbride does on a Sunday.  “Goat yoga and ASMR” is Deeks’s guess.  

Mentioning Kilbride’s son, Kensi is not sure what kind of relationship to the two have.  Deeks does not envy “Son of Kilbride” but Kensi disagrees.  Deeks is assuming that Kilbride is the same kind of parent as he is the new OSP director.  Kensi talks about her dad, who was a “tough son of a bitch” to those Marines in his command but with her, he was just ‘Dad’, her best friend and whole world.  Deeks really agrees and wants to ask Kilbride about fatherhood, maybe hold hands, cry things out and do some trust falls.  Kensi thinks Deeks will leave without a limb.  Once again, Deeks agrees, thinking Kensi’s “en fuego” today.  Kensi reminds him she’s “en fuego” every day.  

Deeks moves on to the Admiral walking up and down the aisles of Home Depot wearing a vest and answering questions about wood screws.  Kensi thinks he then goes home and watches “The Dirty Dozen” to learn from Lee Marvin.  Of course the Admiral pops up on the big screen in Ops.  “Thank you for the compliment, Agent Blye.”  The Admiral is on a flight back to Los Angeles.  The team has to protect a Deep Cover operative who may be compromised.

The operative is Laura Song who for the last 20-years has provided crucial intel on China’s Navy.  If she is compromised, the Chinese government is going to want her dead.  While others are working on figuring out if Song’s identity was leaked to the Chinese, Callen and Sam are taking Song to a safe house.  Fatima and Rountree will also be there.  Deeks wants to join them but the Admiral has a different assignment for them.  Song’s daughter is a freshman at USC who needs to be moved to the boatshed until the Admiral gives them the all-clear.  Kensi and Deeks are on their way.

Fatima and Rountree arrive at the safe house.  Fatima blew off a date at L’Ardoise – “the hottest reservation in LA.”  Rountree says to go next weekend but there is no way Fatima and Ben, her date, could get a table.  This is all confusing to Rountree – dinner dates are supposed to be relaxing and fun not like ‘The Hunger Games’ where only the rich eat steak.  Fatima notes the place is vegan, annoying Rountree even more.  He eats at “normal places without apostrophes in their name.”  He likes places where you show up and get fed.  The two start up the cameras and connections to the office.  “We are ready for Laura Song.”

Callen and Sam arrive with Laura Song after a tour around Los Angeles to make sure they weren’t followed.  Sam calls for Rountree, who comes to the building’s lobby to meet with him and Laura Song.  She is being moved a secure apartment on the top floor.  Fatima is in the apartment making sure everything is acceptable.  Sam is going to walk up the stairs to make sure things are secure – something Rountree already did.  The elevator arrives.  Sam takes the stairs, Callen and Laura song are in the elevator.

Exiting the elevator, Laura Song is worried about her daughter, who does not know her mother is a spy.  Callen assures her NCIS is picking the young woman up.  Inside a well-appointed apartment, Song meets Fatima, who is sorry all this is happening but the place is secure.  The doors throughout the apartment are solid steel, the windows are bulletproof and there is a panic room in the bedroom.   Song is impressed but she thinks if “this is the end, I’m going to die in the open, not in a box.”  Callen promises her this isn’t the end – her cover may still be intact.  Kilbride will know more.  Song says her life is in their hands.

One hour later, there are blue and red emergency lights flashing.  Admiral Kilbride is walking over a lot of glass while there is first responders radio chatter in the background.  Using a flashlight, the Admiral finds Callen and Sam, sitting on the floor as Laura Song is zipped into a body bag.  He demands to know what happened.

On Tuesday, November 9th, ONI Inspector General Akhil Ali is set up in a generic conference room.  He is doing a date/time stamp on a digital recorder (which should have those things).  He’s been assigned to investigate the death of Laura Song, especially since there is no security footage of what happened.  Members of the team have been kept away from each other for 36-hour to keep them from “corrupting their accounts.”  Callen is the first interview – he has two small cuts on his cheek near his right eye.  He was in the secure room with Laura Song.  Asked about Song, Callen calls her confident and forceful – someone who would be willing to fight.  Ali brings up Song’s drinking, which Callen confirms but states it was not enough to get drunk.  The scotch did make Song “chatty”.  

In a flashback, Song has a bottle of scotch and a pair of glasses.  She asks Callen if he works for Hetty Lange.  Callen says he did but doesn’t really know right now.  He wonders how Song knew.  Looking at the safe house, “Hetty’s fingerprints are all over this place.”  Song offers Callen a drink – he respectfully says no – and ask how long Callen knew Hetty.  Callen gives a general “feels like all my life” when Callen turns the tables.  He asks about Song’s relationship with Kilbride.  She gives a similar reply.  

Chatty, Song was born in Nanjing but her mother was American.  After her father’s death, Song was moved to San Diego.  While she didn’t like it right away, she loved the ships.  At 17, Song joined the Navy.  That’s where she met the Admiral.  Song wanted to work on a ship but he saw a different path for her.  Things are coming full-circle.  Kilbride put her into the world of espionage and now he’s pulling her out.  Since every operative has an expiration date, she knows she chose this life and the risks that go with it.  Callen assures Song that NCIS protects their own.  Sam arrives with a phone – Song’s daughter is on the other end.

Ali asks Callen how much did he have to drink.  Callen did not have anything to drink that day.  Asking what happened next, Callen tells Ali that he left the apartment to call Kilbride for an estimated time of arrival.  The call only lasted three-second however, since all cell service and power were cut to the building.  

Callen in flashback is back in the apartment.  Sam can’t contact Fatima or Rountree, Song wants a gun.  Ali asks if Callen provided her with one.  He did not.  Not because she was drinking as Ali assumed but because Callen’s experience told him not to put a gun into a protectee’s hand, especially one who is trained.  “It was our job to protect Song, not hers.”  Giving her the gun would have been a go-ahead for Song to take risks.  Not that it stopped her anyway.

Looking out the safehouse’s window, Callen notes that the lights are on across the street.  Just their building is dark.  Sam wants to move Song into the panic room but she’s already left the apartment.  In the hall, Callen and Sam try to reason with Song but a gunman comes crashing through a skylight.  Sam pulls his weapon.

Now Sam is being interviewed.  Ali wants to know what Sam did after the perimeter check.  After Callen left to call the Admiral, Sam said Song was in the bedroom talking to her daughter.  Sam was sympathetic.  He knows from personal experience how hard it is to protect your family from your work.  

In the apartment, a grateful Song returns Sam’s phone.  She wonders if this is a blessing in disguise.  If her cover is blown, ending her career, Song could spend more time with her daughter.  Song’s daughter attended boarding school – the teachers there were more of a mother than Song was.  “Now I have to bribe her with gifts just to have her have dinner with me.”  Song thinks her daughter is probably better off without her.  Always positive, Sam thinks Song shouldn’t pull away from her daughter.  It will just make things harder.  Song asks about Sam’s daughter, who is the same age as Song’s and also a boarding school kid.  Song asks about Kam’s relationship with her mother.  Sam explains they got along while Michelle was alive.  Song startled – apologizing profusely.  Sam explains Michelle died in the line of duty.  Song starts to repeat the line about every operative having an expiration date.

Back in interview, Ali asks about Song’s drinking.  Sam said he saw a bottle of bourbon but didn’t see Song drink any of it.  Ali and Sam go back and forth about scotch versus bourbon but Sam is sure is was bourbon but if it is really important to the investigation, Ali could check it out the room.  While it is probably in a million piece, what’s left of the bottle is likely still there.  Sam is bothered that Ali is worried about the minutia of the case.

A bit unnerved, Ali asked what happened next.  In the apartment, Sam gets a call from Deeks but that call goes dead quickly.  Sam tries to talk to Callen, Fatima or Rountree with no luck.  When the power goes out, Song wants a gun.  Ali asks if she was given one.  Sam did not believe the situation warranted arming Song.  They weren’t under attack but that changed.

Back in the hallway with Callen, Sam, Song and the guy coming in from the skylight, Callen grabs Laura Song while Sam starts to fight with skylight guy, who is wearing a bulletproof vest and a helmet covering his head and face.  After a struggle, Sam takes the rope skylight used to get onto the floor and uses it as a garrote.  A second man appears at the top of the skylight and starts shooting at Sam.  Sam uses the first skylight guy as a shield to get back to the apartment.

Callen and Laura Song are in the apartment with Sam.  Sam is a bit annoyed that Callen left him behind but Callen’s plan was to get Laura Song to the panic room.  Laura Song is of course standing in the middle of the living room and not the panic room campaigning to get a gun.  Ali asks if the situation called for Song to get a gun. Sam said the situation called for moving Song into the panic room, even if she didn’t want to go voluntarily.  Sam is seen grabbing Song and pushing her to the panic room.  

As Sam and Song get near the bedroom, the apartment door is blown off, hitting Sam and Song.  Callen ducks behind some furniture as several gunmen dressed like skyline guy enter the apartment.  Callen takes down one and calls for Sam.  One of the gunmen grabs Laura Song and takes her out of the apartment.  A third gunman throws a concussion grenade into the middle of the apartment.  

Callen is being interviewed now.  When he woke up after the explosion, Song was dead.  Interviewing Sam, Ali asks if Sam believes he made the right decision not to arm Song.  Sam does.  Callen says the same thing in his interview.  Sam takes responsibility for what happened, Callen knows that they were there to protect Laura Song, she should not have had to protect herself.  “That was our job.  And we failed.”

It is Rountree’s time in the interview chair.  He tells Ali that he and Fatima did all the required perimeter checks and reported back to Callen and Sam.  It was a quiet assignment for them.  With his FBI background, he’s done a lot of stakeouts.  He knows to bring a book or some music.  This time he brought some magnets as part of a game.  

In the safehouse’s Ops area, Rountree is playing a game, Fatima is checking her phone – her date is officially missed.  Rountree doesn’t think Fatima is missing much – not the food or her date Ben.  Fatima claims to like Ben but Rountree isn’t so sure.  “You act like it is a chore to meet up with the guy.”  Fatima tries to pick-up a magnet as part of the game but gets three – a losing move.  She goes off to pray.  Rountree tells Ali faith is important to Fatima.   Ali accuses Fatima of leaving her post to attend to a personal matter.  Rountree says nothing was going on and if something did, Fatima was on comms.

Back in the safehouse, Rountree is packing up his game when all the video cameras go dark.  “I didn’t even touch anything.”  At first, he’s worried about the magnets screwing everything up but then he lost power.  When they lose power in a situation like this, comms is supposed to migrate to a nearby cell tower but that didn’t happen.  Rountree knew they were using a strong signal jammer.  Fatima returned from prayers saying they have company.

When the door to the interview room opens, Fatima walks in with crutches.  Ali wants to help but Fatima claims she fine.  He still pushes the interviewee chair back so Fatima can sit.  Once in their proper places, Ali asks Fatima about her leg.  She calls it annoying but recovering – in fact she has a doctor’s appointment after the interview.  Ali promises to move things along but goes on about Fatima’s background and accomplishments.  

In Fatima’s testimony, she was winning the game – crushing “‘Tree”.  Rountree feels badly she missed her date but Fatima is fine with it.  Also, she doesn’t think Ben is really her type.  Ali asks why Ben wasn’t her type.  Fatima doesn’t know if that is relevant to the investigation.  After the game, Fatima went to pray.  It is something she does “when reasonable” during the day.  Her faith makes her a stronger person and a better agent.  Ali admires Fatima’s commitment to their faith.  

During prayers, she saw gunmen in a window behind her.  Fatima tried to contact Rountree but comms were down.  She goes to find Rountree.  The two check out the lobby.  When Fatima goes near the front door, she sees it is wired with a bomb.  Fatima runs from the door which explodes behind her.  Gunmen enter the building, firing at both Fatima and Rountree.  Hiding behind a column in the lobby, Fatima and Rountree are able to take down several of the gunmen before running upstairs to find Callen, Sam and Laura Song.

On the top floor, Rountree shoots the man trying to kidnap Laura Song.  There are other gunmen on the floor with Fatima and Rountree trying to get Laura Song to safety.  Rountree is able to get Laura Song into an elevator but Fatima is too far away.  As she is steps away from the elevator, Fatima is shot in the leg.  

With no power, the elevator isn’t moving.  Rountree opens the hatch at the top of the elevator.  Song wants Fatima to go up next but Fatima wants Song to go next.  Men yelling in Mandarin are outside the elevator door.  Song and Rountree get Fatima to the top of the elevator when Song locks the hatch.  Rountree tells Ali he isn’t sure why Song did what she did.  Fatima thinks Song was trying to save the two of them.  Rountree heard the gunshots.  “We had her and we lost her,” Fatima tells Ali.

Kensi is being interviewed next by Ali.  She confirms that she and Deeks were assigned to bring Lily Song, Laura’s daughter, to the boatshed.  At the boatshed, Kensi puts the Admiral on the big plasma screen so he can explain to Lily what’s going on.  Stating that the Admiral know Laura Song from previous art purchases, he assures the young woman that she’s safe and so is Laura.  Normally, the FBI would handle a threat like this but NCIS is involved because Laura Song means a lot of the Admiral.  The team is the best – “I trust them with my life,” according to the Admiral.  Lily is grateful.  When the Admiral ends the call, Deeks calls Sam to get Lily on the phone with her mother.  

While Lily talks to Laura, Deeks is happy that the Admiral thinks the team is the best and trust them all with his life.  Kensi chuckles.  The Admiral was lying to them.  In his interview, Deeks is asked by Ali about the Laura Song-Kilbride relationship.  Deeks asks if Ali ever saw the movie “The Dirty Dozen”.  Ali has not.   Neither has Deeks, who thinks Kilbride is an onion.  “He has layers,” Ali notes.  “And every single one of them will make you cry.”  Also crying was Lily Song who is afraid of losing her mother too.  Lily’s dad died when she was 11.  Kensi and Deeks did not know that.  Dad Song died in a car crash.  Her mother was heartbroken.  “But losing him, it almost destroyed her,” Lily tells Kensi.  

While Lily talks to Kensi, Deeks looks pensive.  While she knows her mother feels guilty about working so much, and she’s away a lot, Lily noticed her mother “got better” when she returned to work.  Kensi is impressed by Lily.  Deeks excuses himself to check in with Sam.  In the interview, Deeks is distracted.  Deeks explains to Ali what he’s sure Ali already knows – he and Kensi are trying to adopt.  In their jobs, they’ve thought about dying in the line of duty.  While Deeks understands everyone deals with trauma differently, Deeks struggles to say that if Kensi died, he could not stay operational with an 11-year old.  He thought Sam should know that information about Laura Song.

When Deeks calls Sam, the connection is lost.  He tells Kensi that the safehouse is offline.  Deeks gets an LAPD alert about shooting at the safehouse.  Kensi goes to be with the team, Deeks stays with Lily.

At the safe house, the comms are back when Kensi arrives.  The gunman with the signal jammer must have retreated.  Kensi enters the building and found Laura Song dead in the lobby.  She was shot through the heart.  

Kilbride is the last interview.  Asked what happened when he arrived on scene, the Admiral said nothing happened when he arrived on scene, everything already happened.  “Laura Song was dead.  Are we done?”  Ali says they are not.  Ali has a different view of what happened from a construction site near the safe house.  The Admiral arrived, went inside and left before Kensi got there.  Moving toward Ali, Kilbride turns off the recorder and admits he’s the one who shot Laura Song.

Looking a bit worried, a sitting Ali is paying strict attention to the Admiral, who is standing over him.  Based on some intel leaks, the Admiral thought Laura Song was turned by the Chinese.  Since she served the US for 20-years, he wanted to be sure before making any accusations.  The cover being blown story was false so the Admiral could have her in a secure location for a real interrogation.  

The team was not told about the Admiral’s plan.  “I needed them to play their roles perfectly.”   His team was good but Laura Song was the best operative he ever saw.  Arriving at the safe house, he saw Laura Song leaving with the gunmen, speaking to them in Mandarin.  It was obvious she was the person in-charge.  The Admiral shot both of the gunmen before firing at Song.  She was pointing her weapon at him.  He tells her to drop the gun.  She does not, realizing that this whole blown cover story was to get her in custody.  

Song offers to tell the Admiral the truth but he does not believe her anymore.  She raises her gun and is shot for the second time.  The gunmen were not there to kill her, they were there to rescue her for the Chinese government.   The Navy didn’t lose an operative, Kilbride killed a traitor.  “And now that you know that, you’re going to forget it,” Kilbride tells Ali.  Ali is having none of it – Kilbride committed perjury and obstructed justice.  He’s about to call SecNav but the SecNav already knows, “you idiot.”  Ali calls the SecNav and gets an earful.  Everything Kilbride sad was true.

The Admiral explains that everything about this case was decided before Ali got involved.  The truth of the story makes the US look weak.  If Laura Song dies a hero, Ali investigation into NCIS is to keep Callen and company from wondering why they weren’t in trouble for getting Laura Song killed.  Ali is bothered by this – the team is full of guilt over Song’s death.  “If they have a great need to wallow in their angst, who am I to stand in their way?” the Admiral asks.  Cyber Command will issue a report saying that the Chinese broke into ONI’s security system so they knew the minute Laura Song entered the safe house.  The team did the best they could and Kilbride expects to see that in Ali’s report.  

Ali has one last question – the Admiral knew Song longer than anyone.  He recruited her, trained her, why did she turn?  “That’s her story to tell,” the Admiral says as he leaves.  

The following day, Callen and Sam are in the bullpen when Kensi and Deeks arrive.  Callen asks about Lily, who is alright because she’s strong like her mother.  Deeks ask how Callen and Sam are doing.  Callen’s done with questions, especially how’s he doing.  Sam agrees.  Kilbride arrives with a case.  Everyone slowly goes up to Ops.  Nobody is happy as they shuffle their way to Ops.  Kilbride watches them go.

Sitting in his office, Kilbride starts to work but remembers the final minutes with Laura Song as he looks at a photo of her.  Before she died, Song tells Kilbride that he didn’t recruit her all those years ago, she chose him.  A man with a broken family looking for a second chance was the perfect mark.  He doesn’t believe her and as she goes to shoot him, Kilbride kills her.  The episode ends with the Admiral tucking the photo away in his leather agenda.

What head canon can be formed from here:  This is probably the best talky episode of any show in a good long time.  They mixed the talking with action, which worked perfectly.  The small differences in the story make sense because while they didn’t remember all the small stuff perfectly – and usually to their own advantage – they remembered the big stuff just fine.

The head canon – something we doing get much of in season 13 of any show – is Fatima’s dating life and the Admiral’s family history.  Also, Laura Song mentioned that Hetty’s fingerprints are all over the safehouse.  Does Hetty know Laura Song?  Do her spy bosses know about Hetty?

I forgot the “trust falls” with Deeks and Kilbride started here.

Episode number:  This is episode five of season 13, episode 285 overall.

Flufftober 2022 Day 12: “You kept this?”

OCs: Nathara Emmeline Nicolette Gaudreau & Ashwin Kedar

fluff2022-poetry, art, music, craft

Nathara was usually thorough in her observations of others. No matter who they were, the smallest details could reveal potentially valuable information. So, she paid very, very close attention. It was fairly off-putting, then, when she noticed something about the visiting bard only after an entire week of his presence.

Ashwin Kedar, a young, but well renowned bard who traveled all the kingdoms of the empire, had come to stay in the palace of the Gaudreau monarchy. He’d been here for eight days straight, living and sleeping under the same roof as Nathara. But only now did she notice the small dagger strapped to his thigh. Not that there was anything wrong with walking around armed. Most travelers did. It was a scary world out there, and even the pristine marble floors of the castle had seen their fair share of blood. What was bothering Nathara was how she was sure the dagger had been there every time she saw him, and yet she’d neglected to pay it any mind until this moment. It had everything to do with his beauty and charisma, but she’d deny it if asked.

The dagger’s sheath was simple muted-brown leather, but the pommel stone was unique. A glossy black onyx carved to look like a rose. As soon as Nathara registered what she was seeing, a rush of memories, a decade old, came to the surface.

Hiding in a cabinet in her father’s study during the social event of the year, only a kid at the time. When she saw a boy, no more than a year or two older than her, sneak into the room and approach her father’s desk. But then there were voices, and footsteps coming nearer, and the boy’s face turned panicked. Nathara lunged out of her hiding spot, grabbed the boy, and pulled them both back in, closing the cabinet doors just in time for the other door to open. Her father, the king walked in, another man following closely behind. They spoke in hushed voices, only relaxing when the door was latched shut and both men had sat down. Meanwhile, both kids held their breaths and listened closely in the dark, until the room became empty again.

The boy moved to open the cabinet door, and Nathara felt a strange twinge of sadness. She didn’t know his name, hardly even saw his face, and yet in that moment, she knew him. And felt known in return. Nathara grabbed his arm softly, and he turned to look at her, his face in shadow. A small dagger passed from one hand to the other.

“Keep it,” she’d said. And then the boy was gone.

There wasn’t a single doubt in Nathara’s mind that this was the same dagger. Which meant it was the same boy, too.

“You kept it?”

Ashwin looked up at her sharply, confusion on his face. “Pardon?”

“The dagger,” she replied, pointing to it for good measure. His expression morphed into shock as she spoke. “I gave that to you. Ten years ago, in the room at the end of the hall, remember?”

He stared at her for a long moment, a series of emotions flashing across his face. Finally, it settled on a kind of awe as he looked her up and down, as if seeing her for the first time. Then, in a soft voice, he responded.

“I remember.”
