@Rihana
Same pinch! I was just wondering more or less on the same lines.

Rest of us like I are the background dancers in a group song and occasionally camera focuses on our clumsy steps !

ole ole ole ole..(the camera turns) Novalis positions herself in front of the camera
dhoom tana tanaa tanaa (the camera rotates) Novalis rotates in style
aaye re fatak fatak fatak (the camera zooms out) Novalis hops ahead
sun sunana nana (camera retracts) Novalis lunges
tamma tamma (camera scoffs) Novalis steadies herself
joom joom jhumroo (camera droops) Novalis limbers up
zubbi zubbi zubbi (camera surrenders) Novalis excites away.

The creativity of Novalis is to bludgeon the camera to surrender to her antics.

7. Write to her one line and she comes back with a hundred lines. Her versatility amazes me!

You both have no inkling on how frightful it is to retain #7 among other frothy contenders. Four correct? Am I in or out? Am I still #7. Who are my competitors for #7. What?! you found someone for seventy lines. What?! another claimed eighty lines. Yay! Novalis is #7 for hundred lines.

Cheeniya, that is the most authentic representation of my nadaswaram on IL. Unless my finger snapped, I could never clam up with a meager reciprocation. It would take the collective determination of 178 alcoholic sobers and 204 nicotine recoverers for me to abstain with a proportionate interaction. My chattiness here is underpromised and overdelivered.

Does not matter what the obnoxious topic is or who the unsuspecting reader is, I waffle away!

In the unusual circumstances in which I choose to scratch only one line, be assured that it would still be a monstrous line like that of Bohumil Hrabal.

Cheeniya, to hint the essence of someone with incontrovertible match is remarkable. There might be many contenders for the uncertainty in a dignified and regarded teaser, like : 'she is !!!" but none on either side of the hundred lines for the amusing way you have positioned me ...'write to her one line'. That is so--oo-ooo solely me!

Mistt, thanks for sustaining me (without changing your mind) at #7 on Cheeniya's prompt. If you had switched me with someone, then I would have fought red in tooth and claw to appropriate that who-is cluedo on me.

Greenbay, though I would love to pretend conspiratorial twitch in my mutative dance ...alas ... the motive is the unexceptional Ockham's conjecture that reasons are much simpler than suspected. I get bored of a moniker after a duration. Today, I might fancy "Novalis" but tomorrow I wake up ..kya ghatiya naam hai ..what was I even thinking ...let's try Silmarillion next time.

Get extremely weary of certitude and stagnancy in life, could be a moniker or other features of life.

Once upon a time there was a family. A very big family with many members, some of them scattered across the various continents. Naturally, being such a big family, it was bound to be interesting and full of characters, each as different from each other as chalk from cheese.

The patriarch of the family was a very erudite gentleman, elderly and statesman like in the way he handled the entire family. He normally stayed in his own room and did not say much. But his presence was always felt all over the house. He sat in his big armchair and quietly watched everything that was going on. Occasionally he'd suddenly get into a mood to talk and would tell the younger members stories of his childhood, his working days and other delightful stories. When that happened, the family would love to gather around and listen. That would be followed by long discussions. Some of the members would listen admiringly, nod their heads, smile at his humour and get back to work. Others would linger a while longer and chat a while. And then there were one who would get into long discussions with the grandpa, while the other siblings would watch the two with their jaws dropping. Often the discussions would fly over their heads.

Then there were a few other brothers of the 1st generation in the family. One used to appear off and on. He too was a very good narrator of stories, but one never knew when he'd get into story telling mood. But when he did, they would be epics - sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant and sad.

Yet another brother was very happy to be involved in the discussions and generally keep up everybody's spirits.

These brothers had a sister who was extremely loved by everyone in the family. She was the motherly figure in the family and spread her love and affection liberally to every one around her.

Among the 2nd generation was one uncle who was extremely spiritually oriented and his function in the family was to tend to the spiritual growth of the younger members. In this he was joined by one of the grand-aunts who would explain his point by narrating stories from life. This uncle related to everyone in the family - the older generation as well as all the nephews and nieces. He encouraged them to live good lives, to be helpful and all this he did through example. But that did not mean that he did not have a sense of humour and he was not beyond enjoying a good banter with the younger ones.

One of his sisters was extremely gifted - whether it be in writing, painting, .... name it and she was an adept. Another was extremely intelligent and enriched the knowledge of the younger members with information about the moon and the stars. Yet another was a woolly headed creature who lived with her heads in the clouds.

And then there were a number of nieces and nephews - some who loved to indulge in academic discussions, others who were involved in trying to soothe down ruffled feathers of their brothers and sisters who were unhappy for any reason, yet others were artistically inclined.

This household was always bustling with activity. Like all families there was plenty of discord, but enough of love to ensure that everyone came back, even if they decided to sulk for a while. Am so happy to be so close to this family. I am sure you know which family I am talking about. Can you recognize the characters?
P.S.: Please feel free to describe other members, so that we can take a guess at who it is?

Awesome write up and you have narrated very well about everyone. Thanks for remembering me. IL family is a loving family.

1.This one is Encyclopedia Indusladica When he is around you forget all your grief!
2.She excels both in Facts and Fiction. She has been here for less than two years and look at her popularity!
3.Our Resident Philosopher. I always keep standing while reading his posts.
4. I understand her shooting the birds but she shoots even the flowers! She doesn't spare even the Sun.
5. I can understand people going gaga when a new flower sprouts in their garden. But this one will be at her rapturous best in describing it!
6. This Matriarch visits IL only after she attends to her terrace garden. Plants vie with each other to be part of her collection!
7. Write to her one line and she comes back with a hundred lines. Her versatility amazes me!
8. She reminds you of a piece of well-known chocolate. No subject is beyond her!
9.This little old lady is the darling of all!

Here are my clues, well much has been mentioned about the below people, still I wanted to in my own words.. ..

1. She is not only the Jack of All but a master of it too.... Name it and she is proficient in it. Writing poetry, snippets, drawing and coloring various forms of ganpati and stunning nature portraits, recipes... She is multi talented, a lovely person.

2. I love her name, it reminds me of amicable... .She is like a butterfly, fluttering everywhere and spreading loads of love and warmth. I had once told that I would love to have her as my neighbor.

3. Though she is here for 2-3 years, I still feel she is a newcomer. Her talks are fresh and she does have a number 3 in her profile name. I do call her as my budding chef, though she is a talented chef and a wonderful woman.

4. What to do I say about this lady, she keeps posting interesting and humorous media posts and I love them, sometimes she does post in Telugu too....
I love how she clicks the like button for people like me and motivates and keeps me going.. ...

5. I love these two talented female writers, one has a beauty in her name and the other one starts with R.
They both have the talent of beautiful narration and keeping the readers waiting.

6. She is an elderly woman filled with enthusiasm and love for everyone. I love her energy and her pearl works.... A kind hearted soul....

7. If anyone can write an interesting snippet about the sambar, it had to be this talented woman, she made the entire process look easy and wow.

8. She and healthy cooking are one and the same, I love her flavored waters and the use of miller's....

Just a thought without hurting anyone. Good things were written about me by @satchitananda , @Cheeniya Sir and @nandinimithun . But no one wrote about my posts. I know among the great writers here I am nowhere. But being in IL since 2007 I have learnt to write.
