Today's song is Sept 16 Triple X Love! Love!  (Or possibly Sept 19 Triple X Love! Love!).


 


There is a fragment of another song at the beginning here, which is present on all the youtube uploads I could find, but which is not present if you go listen to the start of the song at the iTunes store. I don't have the album Sweden, so I can't check to see what's up with that, but I assume it is a weird artifact on all the youtube videos I can find.  Weirdly, the book says the song title is Sept 19 Triple X Love! Love! but all other sources I can find list it as Sept 20.  You may recall there was an earlier song that Darnielle had indicated was mistitled on the official release, but he didn't say anything about a similar issue in these annotations. I did more investigation of what was going on here than was strictly necessary, and yet I have no answers. If I were in an epistolary novel built around journal entries reflecting on this book, these sorts of discrepancies would be a good hook for "something is afoot, and the author of the journal entries gets pulled into the mystery while noticing them".

Long Distance Force Calls

The first time her meditations took her deep enough that the lock slipped from the training bond, Ahsoka almost metaphorically ran away and slammed the gate shut. She was still on the run, still trying to figure out where she could belong that would make a difference, and there was this swirling storm of rage and pain.

Before she could, he took notice of her, and for a moment, she felt him push the anger away to hold on to her as something of his own.

~You left me.~ The accusation burned blue-white in her mind, as the anger rose higher than the possessive love.

~I would be dead if I hadn't and you know it,~ she shot back, but there was a piece of her that did feel the guilt of the galaxy burning down because of her choice.

~I could have protected you!~

~Really, Skyguy?~ She deliberately let him see as she stood looking over the markers made for the 332nd.

It was him that closed her out … after she tasted his own sense of failure to those that had trusted them both.





She had not been meditating that deeply when she knew that he was touching her mind. The whirls of anger were almost steadying, given how enraged she'd been by the Alliance ignoring her advice. They would not do so again — but too many had paid the price.

She locked that, all of her other activities, deep inside, protecting them behind shields he could not penetrate. That the anger was tied so deeply to pain, unending pain, was a moment's curiosity before she acknowledged him in her mind.

~Snooping on me, Skyguy?~

~Your irreverence only grows,~ and the voice was far more resonant, deeper, carrying a darker flare than ever, but she thought there was something desperate in how it sounded.

~Did they all die?~

She hissed in a breath, needing to protect those few men she knew to be free of the Empire, the ones safe from the nightmare… and grieving for all those she had not been able to save.

~If, Apprentice, you should find others, they still age.~

Her hesitation to tell him made those words come across as cold as space, and yet, even as he left her alone in her mind, she noted he had told her the important part. Somewhere, deep inside the man that had become her worst nightmare, he still cared about the men. And she would see what she could do to fix it, another testament of who they had been, when they had been together, protecting the men.





She was injured, almost to the point of needing trance to hold it at bay until her operatives made the pick up.

She didn't want to risk being that vulnerable, even as she reached for the fury-laced-with-pain that smoldered in the corner of her psyche.

~You are hurt.~

The surprise, followed by almost overwhelming anger directed at whatever had harmed her was almost touching, but Ahsoka had to keep that away from her heart. She brought her irreverence to her own defense.

~You are always in pain, Skyguy. Surprised your handler didn't get that fixed.~

That was better, a sharp spike in the anger, the deeper presence of darkness — it helped her maintain the illusion that they could never be anything but enemies now, even as neither of them severed their bond.

~There was not much of me to heal,~ being the next honest thought set Ahsoka back on her proverbial heels.

~Ultimate power, with access to a master cloning world, and he couldn't get you body parts cloned? Organs? Whatever it is that you need to not be… like this? Skyguy, your contract with this guy is worse than mucking eopi stalls.~

She didn't expect him to hold onto the link after that.

~Perhaps. But there is no alternative.~

Those words, contemplative, almost calm, sent a chill down Ahsoka's spine, but before she could think her way to a witty comeback, he locked her out again.





~There have been a number of times I thought you were a figment of my imagination.~

That calm entry into her mind, backdropped against the abyss of ever-present pain, set Ahsoka on edge. They'd been entirely too close in physical space this day.

~I wish I had words to convince you that we could make a better reality than what we have.~

She kept it to a surface emotion of wishfulness, holding back every other emotion that had surged in her soul during the near encounter.

~Wishes have never been a good plan of attack, Apprentice.~

She closed her eyes, gave him her regrets for the past, and locked him out of her mind, shoring up her shields against the man she missed, that still existed in a monster that had destroyed everything resembling peace.





Here they were, face to face…

…and even all the moments of the years apart that had led to words and emotions shared, they both knew.

Today, what they had been would either be destroyed forever —

— or reforged.

I've been meaning to write proper reviews for both these novels since literally last year, but as I've been unable to find the time, headspace of energy (due to having had to work 6 to 6.5 days per week since the start of January and still counting, thanks capitalism), short, impressions-based ones will have to do.

I read the Chinese originals of both novels here and here on JJWXC. For Salieri and Mozart, I also read a print-exclusive extra from the mainland Chinese print edition of the novel.

I haven't been making a lot of public posts of late, but with how things are going in the U.S., I figured people might be interested in this idea, which is basically to unsubscribe from whichever services you can that are supportive of ICE or overly involved with the Trump regime. Probably a lot of you have already done as much, but I found Scott Galloway's layout of it helpful, so I unsubscribed from what I could. I don't really have that many subscriptions in the first place, but it was still nice to do something proactive.

I removed comments from this post just because I don't want to get into too much conversation on politics or what does and doesn't work. I'm more about keeping it light on the Internet, but I think it's fair to say things are not going great, and there's no way to completely avoid talking about the reality we're in, so I figured I'd share this as an option.
