#gremlin rambles

3. Yalina is great at math, but has no interest in conventional jobs.She wanted to become a doctor because that is a discipline that takes the longest to complete and she can put off marriage for that long. She actually wanted to be a fashion designer.(Jameel knows this,just as he knew that his 19 yo daughter was trying to be a 32 yo gangster's sugar mommy and let it slide. Hamza got her a botique in one of the upscale markets after his rise to power and she did try to be a sincere and dedicated businesswoman,but her burger baccha tendencies kicked in and now it's handled by one of her friends as proxy)

4. Yalina has a very 'kabhi khushi kabhi ghum' dynamic with her mom. Her mom has severe inferiority complex because she comes from a poor household and married really high when she wed Jamali. She also has that complex that she did not birth Jameel a son. So she constantly projects her insecurities and 'you need to be grateful' syndrome on Yalina. Yalina doesn't understand this because she is the only daughter of a rich af man,and is a papa ki pari to boot (abbu ki amanat, as he calls her) and has no such complex,so a lot of her rebelliousness is solely directed at her mom and with her dad it's just her being an annoying shit.(Until the runaway politician's daughter arc)

5. Yalina was kind of, a trophy child. She was paraded around as "The Jameel Jamali's daughter" and her mom, who was trying to establish herself as a rightful wife, rather than a social climber, and establish her family as a wealthy house instead of the noveau riche of politics, was not a very involved mother. She was raised by nannies and ayahs and her feelings of isolation is the reason she refuses to let Zayan go through the same. She is a very involved mom, almost bordering on helicopter mom.

6.Hamza wasn't her first fling, infact , she had been sure he would be just another fling, she was a party animal because yk, she had a void to fill. And she was your typical 'badon ke samne susheel unke peet piche siren' girl, a lot of her friend group lowkey considered her the most clever 'can't get anything past her because she has played these games before girl'. Well, she accidentally married a spy and became his primary bid to power.😃

7.She grew up really close to Naieem and was actually considered the Baloch's muh-boli daughter. A lot of Rehman's tolerance for Jameel comes from the funding he receives for his gang, but a good chunk of it also comes from his and Ulfat's fondness for Yalina, especially since he has no daughters of his own despite being prime girl dad material.

8. Yalina actually doesn't love her country as much as she pretends. Or rather she doesn't care much for the army and their revolving door of a government, since she has insider knowledge of all their jumlas, she considers them morally bankrupt and considers the public fools. (Rehman might have influenced some of those views lol) So she is actually a lowk supporter of the Balochi freedom struggle and this is also the reason she is actually willing to hear Hamza out ,that night. It is also the reason she is so easily convinced that Hamza doesn't have ill intentions for Pakistan as a whole.

9.Yalina is surprisingly sneaky when she wants to be,and hyper observant too, Hamza actually has to pull every card from his magic book of distractions to keep her from digging for the diary. That's why he gets up after she is asleep to scribble in the diary. She also allows it because he promised her it wasn't another woman (no shit sherlock how would the diary magically transmit what you wrote to your mistress, she had thought) and she did promise to not interfere in his business.

10. She has a love hate relationship with her curly hair. She is convinced that one day she will develop spondylitis because of the stupid thing being high maintenance, but she is too proud of it to straighten it or chemically alter it.

Bonus: She picked the name Zayan, because it is a very subtle mix of hers and Hamza's names. Za from HamZa, Ya from Yalina, and the end N tacked on to make it a normal name. She is very proud of her mental gymnastics.( Hamza doesn't know this, otherwise he would be devastated cus it's not his real name)

I hope you liked these ones too, my lovely readers! This one is significantly longer because I am mildly obsessed with our long haired princess(wait that could be Hamza too lol)

Hope you have a chill Friday!

So here are my lesbians. I love them very much.

This is Selene and Grace, they have their own little plot in my story. I post Selene more often, but if you have seen a post with Grace, then Selene is probably there/referenced.

Selene is the monarch of the Fairies (I’ll explain more about that… eventually… ) she tends to date and then breakup with people. Her relationships never lasting long, but with Grace she GENUINELY does want to continue the relationship. The only problem is that Grace is married, with children. Grace a couple months into the relationship she realizes she can’t continue this relationship, because Selene is probably just going to toss her away. Even though she feels stuck in a relationship with her husband, she chooses to end the relationship with Selene.
