I thought id like to write verses for a musical inspired by the myth of Inanna, centered on the life of two sisters, Amber - a half-human half-demoness, & Angie Rose - a half-human half-angel... Angie is playing the Role of Inanna & Amber that of Irishkigal..
The story starts on Earth; they are the daughters of two influential people, she an ex-angel, he an ex-demon that became mortal so they could be together... Amber loved and protected her sister from as long as she can remember. She always the stronger, while Angie the more fragile flower, like fall-winter & spring-summer... so different one from the other, Angie has healing powers, and Amber distructive flame... oh and Angie is the younger one, younger by 3 years..
Angie also has a boyfriend, his name Derek. He is somewhat her opposite, dark hair to his white blonde, dark eyes to her heaven blue...
Amber has lost her love bc of a stupidity she did... he tried to impede her, but fell to his death... his bf was Gabriel, an angellike blonde boy, the opposite of her dark-bluish hair, and his amber green eyes, the opposite to her amber eyes..
The poems are supposed to include some moments from their childhood, their strenghts, weaknesses, and differences, elements about their hobies, for Amber - motorbiking, fights, epic shows, and playing the electric guitar, Angie - playing piano, arts & poetry, and a love for nature... moments with their loved ones, how they met their boys, how they've found out their parents secret origins (it wasnt talked about to protect them). And the peak moment is that after the tragedy of Gabriel's death she decides to join her, she finds she can as a demon, as she is half one. She goes on the path... days after Angie while searching for her observes the sign of a dragonfly silhouette & she follows it, finding out it's a messenger, a friend of her mother, fighting a demon. She wonder how's that she can see them. Upon realising the angel tells her that she is half-angel, and she knows who her parents are... she asks if she knows where her older sister is, if they know so many things... and the angel says that she knows but it's too dangerous so she would rather not tell... in the end the angel agrees to tell her and she goes to there... arrived down there with the help of her boyfriend & their friends (that Dumuzi & the Gods connection) she gets to enter the underworld & strip all her clothes and forget who she is.. arrived at the end of the seemingly ever descending path she finds her sister... she looks like a monster... she doesnt recognise Amber ofc as she forgot all about who she is, part of removing all of herself...
Amber doesnt recognise it either as she went through a similar thing... she looks like a black huge furry monstruous cat or sth as opposed to her, a white porcelainelike body with her blondewhite hair, free of any chords connecting her to the living, yet she still breaths, a magical breath, one of the most influential friends of her bf (Anu) got him... a sort of electronic device from where she got the magick breath, as opposed to the ordinary mortal one... she thought it was a joke back then but it showed itself very useful...
Now back to the in-moment.. Angie naked and trembeling bc it is very cold down there stands in the face of the beast that she doesnt know is her sister... she, the furry monster, seeing a sign, a magical sparkly tear maybe, or a sign on her white shoulder, similar to one she had, transforms, her fur falls down and she reveals herself in a rippen almost transparent black dress with golden chains on and crystals all over her, its the underworld, she'll say later, it's full of them there... Amber's skin is grey, she looks just like Angie's darker version... Angie still doesnt recognise her, but Amber says she's lying when she asks her if she recognises her... Amber doesnt believe cause she says "how can such a great connection" be forgoten even after death itself?" But Angie is not lying,, and she anyways is too weak to remember... But something blinded Amber to this vulnerabilities so she cannot see anymore... Angie falls to the ground, lifeless... the rest is to the myth...
Now, id want the end to be not only about reuniting, but also a deep deep lesson...
Inspired by HadesTown & an imagined continuation of Angels Friends, + ofc Inanna's Myth of descent ^^ ....
Amber (big, hard tempered, sis) - dark hairs, yellowish eyes, looking like her father. Around 15 (at the debout)
Angie (little, soft tempered, sis) - blonde hair, sweet angel look, blue eyes... (around 9)
Amb: she has a tough time being really understanding and good around other people. Sometimes doesnt get well with her mom & little sis, but would do anything especially for her sis... as she grows up, things she finds harder in the start changes.. but as life changes & problems arise, she has to grow up too.. sometimes giving up on being so tough with herself & others.
Her motto: yesterday ive been hurt, today ive learnt [to not give a f***] (&lucri la motto) -some intelligent yet badass mottos
Angie is on the other hand soft, easy going around good people & her family...but she has problems with school bullies that consider her too sweet & mock everything about her. She thought the best way around them is to be like her sister said, tough, thing which she found hard.. she later on realises her power of healing is something she has special, thing which she inherited from her mom.. Strangely enough she thought everybody has the power to heal, so she didn't see herself as special, not in that way..
Their parents didnt tell their secret to keep their kids at bay... what you dont know cant hurt you, right?
Ofc their identities including their names are changed. She is Lillian. He is Edward. (Mb ill change them tho).
Lilliane intra in anticamera bucatariei cu micuta Angie, aratand putin infricosata, fiind speriata si pitita la pieptul mamei sale: 'îți vom dezinfecta rana şi vei fi bine'.. 'Deja sunt mult mai bine, mami... nu ma mai doare', spune ea, rupandu-se de bratele mamei..
'Wow, rana chiar a fost acolo? Ori cumva mai pacalit?' zambeste ea strengar. 'Ca sa nu spun mintit', continua ea, cu un zambet mare pe buze../cu o mina usor serioasa...
'Nu te-am.. pacalit. Chiar imi e mai bine..' spune ea si ii arata genunchiul abia scapat de julitura..
'Aha, deci chiar te-ai vindecat singura }
Angie o pupa pe obraz si paraseste bucataria... Liliane se pregateste sa puna la loc sticluta de spirt inapoi in compartimentul de prim ajutor din camera..
Angie iesind din nou afara, mai tarziu, respira usurat: huh ce bine ca nici nu am simtit mirosul spirtului, daramite sa il simt pe piele, rece si neplacut. La ce e nevoie de spirt daca omul se vindeca singur?
Amber se intoarce de la scoala cu o mina super morocanoasa.. Liliane o vede si o intreaba: 'ce e cu fața asta lunga'. Amber raspunde nitel ofticata: 'profa de matematica iar mi-a pus cinci doar pentru ca am rezolvat gresit o problema... dar rezultatul e acelasi... dar cica rezolvat gresit'.
- hai sa verific, zice Liliane
- te pricepi la matematica?
- nu, nu chiar, dar uneori pot intelege lucrurile doar analizandu-le... poate ma prind, care e ideea.. adu si manualul cu teoria..
- tu nu te uiti la raspunsuri? Intreaba ea curioasa, scotand din geanta si inmanandu-i manualul.
- huh, de ce as face asta? E trisare si... nemaicontinuand idea revine dupa ce Amber i-a deschis la pagina respectiva cu teoria, iar Liliane exclama dupa ce analizeaza un model de problema asemanator: ah, deci asta era.. tu ai uitat sa rezolvi aceasta parte din ecuatie, indica ea spre prima parte a problemei... si sa inteleg ca tu te uiti mai mult la raspunsuri decat la intrebare..
'Asta e.. nu ne spuneai tu sa nu ne concentram pe probleme, ci pe gasitul solutiilor mai degraba? Si eu am gasit solutia, spune pe un ton usor strengar aratand spre finalul manualului de matematica.
'Dar nu merg lucrurile chiar asa, nici in matematica, nici in viata.. cum te astepti sa poti rezolva probleme complicate daca sari peste pasi si faci alte chestii.. si acea rezolvare nici n-ar fi dat acest raspuns, spune ea, indicand pe caiet raspunsul gresit, potrivit rezolvarii si mai gresite..
'O, pe bune, isi da ochii peste cap Amber.. matematica ce ni se preda e ca moarta pentru mine... nu practică pentru viata..
Ochii fugari a lui Amber ca chihlimbarul scrutineaza zona salonului. Pe canapea se afla un jurnal. Lui Amber ii pare cunoscut.
'Hei, nu e acesta "jurnalul tau de calatorii"?' întreabă Amber făcând ghilimele in aer la denumirea obiectului zarit.
'Ba da... si stii ca e privat'.
'Da, dar ma gandeam ca are raspunsul la multe probleme, spuse ea, abia alungand un suras.. ok, acu o sa plec.
'Ok, Amber. Cina va fi gata in cateva minute. Gaseste-o pe Angie si tata si haideti la masa'. Spune ea, indreptandu-se spre bucataria, incaperea din apropiere...
Fac urat, stam prost cu scrisul, iar acu' simt ca stau si mai prost ☹️
Macar stiu ca am mult de lucrat, si nu o sa-mi omor visul, nescriind pt 'My Angel, My Flame' ori 'Îngerul meu, flacăra mea' .
Apropo, Amber nu are o putere speciala, decat ca atunci cand se streseaza palmele ii devin fierbinti (& pana a invata sa isi pastreze calmul si in cele mai infierbantate situatii, poarta pe maini niste manusi negre fara degete).
[Imi aminteste de o parte haioasa de printre primele episoade din primul sezon a "Angels friends" ;) aia cu Temptel & Gas]
Partea doi: Apare Nicolas, prietenul angelic si cel mai bun al lui Amber, ce o si ajuta sa devina mai buna. Amber o ajuta real pe Angie sa scape de bulling, neintorcand raul cu rau...
Liliane si Edward, dispar..
Vedem prima misiune a prietenei lui Raf, Urie si tovarasa lui Sulfus, Kabaly, zisa si Sila, influentandu-i deciziile unei tinere, Viviane, care le devine in scurt timp profesoara de pian celor doua surori...
Lil & Ed pier intrun accident
Amber e nevoita sa se descurce mai mult singura cu cresterea surorii ei, moment din care isi da seama ca pentru ea e in stare de orice, poate merge si pana in iad si inapoi fara nici o zgarietura... Angie considera ca e pregatita sa aiba pe cineva care sa il completeze asa cum Amber il are pe Nick/Nicolas (Gabriel apare mult mai tarziu in viata ei).
Insa nenorocul face ca ea da de un nesuferit pe nume Jon, de care abia poate sa scape, cu ajutorul lui Amber.. "afla ulterior ca fericirea nu e pentru toti asemanatoare, ea nefiind in contraste, un yin si yang perfect, ci complet esti cu cel cu care poti fi tu nefortat. Pentru Amber el este Nick. Pentru Angie el devine, mult mai tarziu, Stefan, un coleg de facultate in anul lor de boboci...
Eventual Amber si Angie afla secretul parintilor lor, secret care ii sperie putin, dar deja totul capata sens, inclusiv caracterul si puterile celor doua, mostenite de la parinti.
<cand cerurile se deschid> - partea 3.
Ulterior se afla motivul disparitiei lor care e o misiune secreta, Amber si Angie pornesc pe urmele lor impreuna cu Gabriel, dupa care li se mai alatura niste prieteni de drum. Fac cunostinta cu ingerii si demonii, colegi si prieteni/tovarasi ai parintilor lor, ajunsi la varsta adulta. Afla ca pot sa se transforme in sinele adevarat oricand doresc, asta fara a parcurge calea de metamorfoza inversa, cale care ar fi parcurs-o si parintii lor, ei nepierind cu adevarat.. pot un inger si un demon sa moara intru totul? ... ea e jumatate inger, el e un demon intreg, amandoi schimbati de o iubire ce nu multi au putut a intelege. Si eu am dificultati in a intelege aceasta... <fiindcà iubirea schimba tot>
~ poate actiunea o plasez undeva prin Italia, showul original (cu sau fara atacuri de cringe) e italian... 😅❤️
Din nou am minte de copil 👶👨👩👧👧👧👩👱♀️ si 😇 si 😈 bineinteles ... 😉🫠
Liliane choses to hide away her journal, once finished, in a secret compartment in her private room, where neither her husband, Edward, nor others enter. The room is hidden away beind a secret door in the library. That door leads to the garden, behind... yeah that classical mystical kind 😉
