The music made her more desperate than ever to do, invent, create — to channel all her own energies into the making of something beautiful and unique to herself — but it also made her want to love. To submit to the loving of someone so deeply and well that there could be no question as to whether she were squandering her life, for what could be nobler than dedicating it to the happiness and fulfillment of another?

Circles of Life
Running in circles is often a criticism – a metaphor for going nowhere fast. But spiralling or chiral movement may be an effective way of cautiously exploring an environment, especially if you’re a bacterium. Here a throng of cyanobacteria – the oldest living organism on Earth – glide in and out of a droplet of water. While appearing chaotic at first, the bacteria inside the droplet stretch out like holidaymakers in a jacuzzi (although ~3000 times smaller), while cells leaving the water begin to bend, turning in a clockwise direction until they find water again. Differences in velocity between the 'head' and 'tail' of the bacteria yield this natural curve to the right. Such studies of chirality in ancient organisms may yield insights to asymmetry in other types of bacteria, but also in understanding, and tackling cyanobacteria in harmful algal blooms.

Summer arrives in a strawberry, sweet, juicy. As long as you feel its flesh on your tongue you’re unaware how. One minute inches into the next. But how could you observe awareness anyway? Or, for that matter, a thought? It grows in you, not as a sensation. (Nor like a baby or tumor.) An experience that you can’t hold on to. Any more than to the smell of lilac. Though it soothes emptiness.
Rosmarie Waldrop, from “Asymmetry (2)”, The Nick of Time: Poems
Hi, I hope you’re having a lovely day. I’ve binged all your fics and asymmetry has had me in a chokehold for days. I can imagine rin’s feelings towards his soulmate are quite complex but would love to hear more about it from you. Is he only interested in her now because his brother is or is there something more going on? Why are they so adamant on keeping her close while not showing her any signs of caring beside threatening people in her life. Would love to hear anything more you have about these two. Sorry if that wasn’t straightforward! First time asking and kinda nervous :)
i wouldn't say he's jumping for joy at the thought of sharing his soulmate with his brother, but he's probably the only soul on earth he'd suffer touching her. that's been a constant from the start.
so it's not jealousy, at least where ran's concerned.
point blank, he doesn't want a soulmate. he enjoys the life he has, fucking who he wants, hurting who he wants, flying high on whatever premium grade drugs he can get his hands on, crashing hard and doing it all over again the next day.
and when he meets her, he isn't impressed. doesn't want a ball and chain dragging after him for the rest of his life, always bitching and moaning and crying about him not giving her attention or some other bullshit. she's not cut out for him or this life.
unfortunately for him, soulmates don't work that way <3
but just cuz he doesn't wanna play with his toy right now doesn't mean he's okay with anyone else touching it.
