There was this guy called Ananthapadmanabhaswami. But let's just call him A. He had a long, angular face. But since I can't draw too well, I'll just show him as a circle. Okay? +
He started reading stuff. And hanging out with a certain kind of crowd. He read more stuff. And then he hung out with more of the same kind of people. And he started looking different. A bit like this. +
There was this other guy called Bhubhaneshwarkumar, but let's just call him B. He actually had a round face, so this likeness is pretty accurate. +
He was brought up in a particular kind of way. He and his friends chatted a lot about stuff. In a loud and boisterous way. And the more they chatted, B's face changed too. He started looking a bit like this. +
A and B had a friend called Chamundeshwarnath. Let's call him D. Just kidding. Let's call him C. Now C was a bit of a butterfly. He hung around with A some times, and with B other times. He spoke like A when he was with him. And like B when he was with him. Or he spoke nothing. +
He had an odd shaped face. But owing to my aforementioned artistic limitation, I'll draw him as a circle too. The label should help you recognise him, and differentiate him from A and B.
Funny thing happened with C's face. It slowly got pointy at the top and bottom. Some days it was really thin, and on the others much fatter. Like the moon, it had phases. But it followed no pattern. Here's how it looked, on average. +
One day it so happened that C was with A, and B walked by. It was a bit awkward. Because both A and B resented C's hobnobbing with the other. They even had the 'choose one of us' talk with him on occasion. +
They made small talk. Safe stuff. Like weather, cricket, vada pav, music, netflix. C managed to take a rare selfie with both of them . His own face squashed between theirs, to fit into the frame. +
He still treasures that picture. It was a selfie, so it became laterally inverted. It was difficult to say who was left and who was right. But, sandwiched between the two of them, in his biconvex symmetry, it didn't effect C one bit.
