It has been such a great day for me and I'm making it even better by posting the next Adoption Magnet chapter!!

Also I'm going to try something new and put a snippet under the cut instead of the summary (oOooOo)

Omega was lying on something hard.

She was lying on the floor .

The floor was rumbling underneath her, so she must be on a ship. Was she on the Marauder? How had she gotten off of Bracca? She couldn’t remember . . .

She groggily opened her eyes, only to be met with the view of a ship’s ceiling.

She definitely wasn’t on the Marauder.

As she slowly pushed herself up, bits and pieces of memories began flashing through her mind. Kanan’s friend, a red-haired padawan . . . the Bad Batch getting their chips out . . . Crosshair showing up with that creepy Imperial girl . . . someone in a helmet aiming a blaster at her -

Had she been kidnapped?

Heart beating faster, she glanced around to get a better grasp of her surroundings. She was in a small ship, near the cockpit, where billions of stars outside of the windscreen shone brightly. There was someone sitting in the pilot’s chair, pressing buttons and keeping a firm grip on the steering controls.

Someone with a helmet.

He must’ve heard her sit up, because he left the controls and swiveled his chair around. The black visor seemed to stare into Omega’s soul.

“You won’t get away with this, you know,” she said out loud, scooting back. “My brothers will find me. They all will.”

“I’m not going to hurt you, Omega.”

Omega squinted at him. Why did he sound so familiar?

In response, he reached up and took off his helmet, shaking out his shoulder-length brown hair. Eyes that were the same color as Omega’s stared right back at her, amber-brown and shining in the artificial light of the ship, as his mouth tightened into a thin line.

Omega’s eyes widened.

“Boba?”

I'm so in love with all of your art. My favorites have to be Codywan, Cody and Obi-Wan separately, and your cursed series art.

May I ask how you came up with the idea for the cursed commanders and Boba Fett series?

Ahhhh this message was the best way to wake up! Thank youuuu 💜💜💜

The Unlucky Ones, my beloveds! That one started like all the others: I went “lmao wouldn’t it be cool” and then it grew into a monster of a concept and venus flytrapping @adiduck in the process.

TUO started because for Halloween I had already Eldritched Obi-Wan so it was Cody’s turn.

I love character design. I like to play around with the given themes or throw them into the ocean and do my own thing. So every time for character designs it really does start out like, “I want to draw that character in these clothes”. There’s no plan. That always happens along the way.

For TUO!Cody I wanted him scary but still being Cody. I thought about typical Halloween things and went with skeletons. Mainly because of the white armor and I thought how cool it would look if the armor was shaped like bones. But I didn’t want the armor to look scary, I wanted him to look scary (and badass) (and like a sexy bastard). While looking for bone refs, I saw enough skulls in different positions. Some of them looked like they were screaming, howling. And I thought, duuuuuuuuude. Duuuuuuude. A skeleton projection rising out of Cody and growing taller and lifting its arms and rushing forward with a scream while Cody stands there like 😎??? YES. LET’S DO THAT.

So the concept of the Curse was born.

It always starts as a visually appealing concept. I try to make sense of my decisions later.

For the other Commanders I thought about how to apply the Cody concept art on them. I didn’t want to copy paste the armor design. But I also wanted them to visually belong together in the same verse.

The designs should be distinct and representative of each character. Even if some details seem questionable at first glance, I always want them to make sense in context. So I add snippets to basically explain myself.

Wolffe’s armor in canon went from red to grey in grief and is rather neat with stenciled designs. For TUO!Wolffe I wanted to up that grief given what Wolffe goes through in TUO. The grey canon design turned into rotten fabric and veils. Which turned Wolffe into a banshee-inspired design. The armor design is reminiscent of those fluttering torn fabrics that indicate a tragedy happened here and the grief is ever present. Going with the banshee and with how I deformed Cody’s face, Wolffe got a deformed jaw (think The Mummy when the corpse screams) which he hides behind a bandana.

Adi suggested beauty in decay for Bly. So he’s got flowers growing out of him. And I desperately needed a reason for him to tell Aayla “General, hold my flower”.

Fox has a deformed back which is only known so far to Adi and me. He started with the little white tufts of hair bc I love that on him and wanted it for TUO!Fox. By then it was already established that their hair goes white with each death. So that meant if I wanted the Fox ears, Fox had to have died twice already. Things like that were the reasons the backstory avalanched into a monster. And suddenly you go from “aww, the white hair looks like ears so cute!!” to “actually Cody killed his brother in training because how the Curse was genetically modified and added to the Commanders makes them go into a berserker state” to “the non-command class clones have instated containment protocols for when a command clone goes berserk”.

Now Ponds. Ponds had to survive. I’m not spoiling his whole story but his character design was inspired by “rising like a phoenix out of the ashes”. So his armor has bird bones and wing bone structures. And with how he looks, his backstory makes perfect sense and is heartbreaking.

Boba was a request by a dear friend. He’s not cursed in TUO canon but my friend loves the design so much she asked if I couldn’t do a Boba design. So I did.

#frost replies #that got LONG #but man #TUO my beloved #TUO is the perfect example #of how I add details #and make them make sense later

About Jango Fett

So I've been having a lot of thoughts and feelings about Jango recently, and I want to talk about him.

Fair warning: This is almost entirely my own headcanons. It is based on canon, but is not canon and should not be taken as canon. Having said that, though, if you want to borrow my ideas for your own headcanons or fanfics, go ahead. Just credit me, please.

Let's talk Jango Fett.

It's difficult to reconcile the two halves of Jango. The loving father from a culture that puts heavy emphasis on protecting children and the cold man who allowed innocent children to be enslaved, tortured, abused and killed.

I think there are multiple ways we can explain this dichotomy. The obvious reasoning is that Jango simply doesn't view the clones as human, as anything more than meat droids. He compartmentalised them in his mind so they didn't come under the Mandalorian cultural protection of children. Boba, under this rationalisation, doesn't count as a clone because he's unaltered.

I don't particularly like this explanation, as it makes Jango an asshole. It's probably the most likely answer, but it's the least interesting.

I think Jango is a very broken man. He grew up in a civil war, watched his bio parents be murdered in front of him when he was 8 years old, then watched his adopted father be betrayed and killed when he was 14. It's worth pointing out that by this time he was already fighting in battles.

By the time he was 15, Jango had lived through a war and watched three parents be murdered. Then he's put in charge of his people, when he's way too young to handle that kind of pressure, and only manages to lead them for seven years.

Then Galidraan happens. His people are slaughtered, and it's partially his fault. The bulk of blame is on the Governer and Death Watch for setting the trap and the Jedi for being easily manipulated, failing to do any kind of research or investigation and actually being the ones who carried out the slaughter.

But Jango did fire first. It was technically him that started the violence, although given the Jedi approached with drawn lightsabers, one could argue some kind of violence was inevitable regardless of what Jango did.

This is all made worse by Jango's inability to grieve or process the loss of his people, because he was sold into slavery. I cannot imagine an unhealthier way to recover from trauma.

It's interesting that Jango never seems to have sought out any remaining True Mandalorians after he escapes slavery. Some must have survived; it's very unlikely that every single one of them went to Galidraan. In Legends canon, at least, there was one other survivor of Galidraan, a Mando named Silas. Dooku captures and tortures him for information on Jango.

So why did Jango never seek out any of his people? It could be that he felt they blamed him for the slaughter at Galidraan and wouldn't want him around, or may even injure or kill him. It could be that he didn't want anyone around him, was afraid to get close to people again, because everyone he's cared about has died. His parents, his sister, Jaster, all of his people, they all died. It could be that Jango thinks his people might want him to be their leader again and he doesn't trust himself to lead again. He fired first at Galidraan, and it got his people massacred.

I think it was probably some combination of all three.

I also think the second reason, the fear of getting close to people in case they die, is part of the reason why he doesn't acknowledge the clones. He's desperate not to lose more people he cares about, and he knows the clones are made to die.

But, then, what about Boba? Why did he insist on having Boba?

Legacy. But not his. I think he was thinking about Jaster's legacy when he decided to have Boba. Jaster was a good man, a reformer with the desire to make Mandalore a better place and a beloved leader. Certainly a better leader than Jango believes himself to have been.

Between Death Watch and the New Mandalorians, Jaster, his reforms and his people have been largely forgotten. Pretty much everyone who knew Jaster is dead, the True Mandalorians are almost all gone and his reforms have been ignored.

Jango wants someone to know about Jaster. To remember him and his legacy. And deep down somewhere, in a part of him he's repressing, he longs for family too.

He's fiercely protective of Boba, because he's desperate not to lose anyone else.

This brings us back to the clones. Why would Jango agree to make them? Especially when the man who recruited him is the same man who led the slaughter of his people?

I'm unsure if it's ever confirmed that Jango knew that the man he was working for was Dooku before Geonosis. I don't think it's likely he did. Again, why would he ever agree to work with him? No, I think Jango found out he had been working with Dooku when he arrived on Geonosis.

Maybe that's why he decided to go for Mace Windu, head of the Jedi order, of all the Jedi on Geonosis. Maybe he realised he'd spent a decade doing the bidding of the man who slaughtered his people. Maybe that led to other realisations, about how awfully he'd treated the clones, what he'd allowed to happen to them. Maybe he wanted to die.

All in all, I don't think Jango was a terrible person. He wasn't an especially good person, but he also wasn't an especially bad person either. Just a very broken man, struggling with a heavy amount of trauma in a galaxy that clearly lacks any kind of mental health support or treatment.

This cover still puzzles me today, what's the real point of putting Izuku face to face with an adult All for one if there's no way that can happen, besides everything it's an AFO with the Final War Costume with his face fully regenerated but still with signs of the Helmet, it seems like an alternate reality where psycho's theory that All for one would get his face back before the war was true, maybe it's actually a small sign that his clone crack theory isn't as far from the truth as it seems first sight

So if you are interested here is a link of the full "afo clone theory" @psychomurderz @lurking96 and I created.

It was purely out of fun and we didnt even took it that seriously, but after a while I startet to rethink that ridicolous crack theory and it actually makes way more sense then it at first seems to be. Dont get me wrong, its still completly crack though!

But its not impossible. The nomu mocha created a clone of dr. garaki, so who says that afo cant have one too?! Garaki hinted that afo can change his appearance/his face (he mentions in the message he left for afo that he always liked afos OWN smile and his OWN eyes), afo is 200 years old and has dotzens of quirks in his arsenal, he even has a quirk with which he can change his own dna so no one can tell me that man never considered to get a clone quirk. And the fact that one of his nomus has a clone quirk and that garaki can create copys of any quirk he wants, shows its actually very likely that afo has a clone quirk himself.

Lets not forget that clone quirks are actually quite important in mha. Twice as the most well known example, then we have toga who can turn into other people by drinking their blood in other words turning herself into their clone. We have mocha who had a clone quirk, garaki who had his own clone, garaki hinting that afo can change his appearance, afo saying that "this body is of no longer use for me."

And then also the fact how much hori is a star wars fan and how important clones are in star wars. Kamino in mha was named after the planet kamino in star wars on which the clones were created, the very clones which were used as CANON FODDER (something you can get rid off like a body you dont need any longer?) in the CLONE WARS and then used against their will to wipe out the jedi! Afo was inspired after darth vader who was once anakin skywalker and who had his own clone soldiers under him and after he turned to darth vader stormed the jedi temple with the clones. One of the most beloved star wars characters boba fett is a clone. The emperor cloned himself both in the old star wars canon and the new, the old canon books even had a luke skywalker clone. So we can all see without a doubt how much of an important role cloning in star wars has and it all startet in kamino - and the place were all might and afo had their fight and afo used as an hideout is named after that very planet.

So while the theory DOES sound completly bonkers its NOT impossible for afo to have a clone. And if bakugou manages to kill the clone afo just for the real one to show up fully healed and in his prime while he actually never left his fucking office in the chrysler building in new york city I will lose my shit!

WIP Werewolf!Clones/Encanto AU.

I got a number of requests asking about this WIP I have burning a hole in my documents. So it’s here if anyone is interested. I keep putting it off because I don’t think I have something yet. Happy reading. DM or reblog your thoughts or if you want to here me rave and rant my plot at you.

There was a heavy storm of anxiety hanging over the Fett household. Echo could feel the underlying tension throughout the house when he first stepped out of his shared room. Fives remained dead to the world, spread eagle on the bed, his soft snores making Echo smile fondly at his twin before quietly shutting their door. It was best to let his brother get all the rest that he could before the hunt tonight. The full moon marked the monthly hunt for the Fett clan. An evening sweep across their lands re-marking borders,and chasing rival clans who decided to test the boundaries of the Fett’s extensive and well established territories.

More importantly, tonight marked the first hunt for their youngest clan member, Boba. It was all the young pup could talk about for the week, shadowing their father, eldest brothers and cousins with questions, speculations and more and more questions. Echo remembered Fives’ first hunt. It was a bittersweet night for the whole clan when the eldest twin took his first strides in the hunt without his twin at his side. Echo had sat alone at the entrance of the Fett estate listening to chorused howls of his family echo across the vast landscape of their territory.

His 12 year old self had never felt so useless in his short life. To be a “normy” in a family of werewolves, to the family of werewolves, was an aberration to everything the Fett’s were and stood for. He was a blight, a curse hanging over an esteemed house. His father never spoke of Echo’s inability to shift and he still loved and cared for him, but there were times when he would catch Jango staring at him with a look of what Echo could only describe as fear. Fear of what? The young Fett twin could not decipher for. Only that Jango seemed to hold him out at arm’s length even more now that Cody was gone…

His dear eldest brother, Cody. His father refused any talk about him since he left. For what and why? No one, but Jango knew and maybe the older of the Fett siblings and Aunt Arla. All he could remember was walking up to hear that his eldest sibling was gone. The siblings had gathered outside their father’s study for any news of their brother’s whereabouts. Echo remembers his father thundering out of his study, staring his children down and making them swear to never utter the name of their beloved brother in his house ever again.

He finds his father in his study with Boba, tucked in his lap staring down at a map spread out on their father’s conference table in his office along with Fox, Wolffe and Rex. Even after a year, Echo was still getting used to seeing Rex standing sentinel at their father’s side, still so much younger than their eldest brother- filling the void of a sibling no one dared mention in their household. Rex had seamlessly fit into their father’s most inner circle, but it had changed Echo’s favorite sibling into a colder and more distant man.

“And this is really all ours?” Boba exalts in awe of the expansive map, as their father draws his finger across the borders.

Jango’s deep laugh fills the mahogany office, “It is ad’ika. With the strength of you and your brothers, this whole territory will stay in our clan as it has for hundreds of years.” The youngest Fett’s brow furrows as he studies the map more intently and Echo only chuckles at how much his father and siblings look alike in that moment.

“That seems like a lot of work.”

“It is vod’ika.” Fox grumbles as he ruffles Boda’s curls. “That’s why we need young blood like you out there tonight to protect our home. You ready to do that, pup?”

Boba’s chest puffs up in a display meant to intimidate but only makes Echo ache at how very young his little brother is.

“I’m ready for anything.” Boba affirms confidently, which earns him approving laughs from the eldest clan members.

Echo smiles and shifts his feet from the doorway causing the wooden floors to creak. In a split second, he is faced with the stares of his father and brothers.

“Echo?” Jango calls out and beckons him into the office. The younger Fett hesitates before entering the room. He’s never felt comfortable or welcome in this space - the War Room - as his brothers liked to call it. There was something disconcerting about walking the gauntlet to his father’s large desk and being judged by the dead stares of fallen pack members. Of course, it was probably only ever Echo who felt the harsh assessing gaze of his ancestors every time he entered this room.

“You’re up early.” His father comments. “Are you doing okay, adi’ka?”

Echo holds himself at attention and nods firmly. “I’m doing just fine, buir.” He says. “I did an early morning sweep of the borderlands this morning and found some areas we should pay close attention to. I wanted to start prepping my speeder for tonight and getting my supplies together.”

“About that,” Jango shifts his eyes to his eldest son’s. “I know you have been coming along on the hunt for awhile now and staying close to Fives, but he’s going to have his hands full with Dogma, Tup, and Boba now.” Ah, yes. He had heard Fives griping about puppy sitting duty all weekend. The brothers were very familiar with taking the mantle of shepherding younger pack members during their first hunts. Father called it a rite of passage. Everyone else called it a punishment.

“I’ve talked with your brothers and we all agree that it would be best if you stay at the manor during the hunt. At least for the rest of the year.”

Echo’s inside clench with cold dread and he looks to his brothers for an explanation. He’s met with silence. Fox’s face reveals nothing, but that’s no surprise. The second eldest Fett brother could stare down a Dathomir witch and never break a sweat. Wolffe isn’t much better. Only Rex gives anything away. His eyes expressing some sign of regret.

“But,” Echo stops and attempts to collect himself. Jango has little patience for non-concise answers.

“Father, I’ve always joined the family on our hunts and you’ve never objected before.”

“That was before we had Boba to think about. With your cousins still needing guidance and looking after, we won’t be able to keep an eye on you if something happens. Clan Vizsla is already prodding our northlands and there has been rumor of a coven vampires returning to the outskirts of Mandalore.”

Vampires, Echo’s curiosity almost supplants his growing anxiety settling deep in his stomach. The young twin held a deep fascination with all supernatural beings, spending our pouring over old texts filling his mind as if he was trying to fill the blaring gap of his inability to shift.

“I can’t have your brothers focused on tracking them down if they are concerned about you.” Jango states, shifting Boba off his lap to stand. Their father has always been an imposing figure even as the signs of aging have started to show on his face.

“Just because I can’t shift doesn’t mean I’m a liability.” Echo states firmly. His father holds his gaze and the silence is deafening. There are only a few topics that up the tension in the Fett household. Echo’s inability to shift was the worst kept secret among the lycan clans, and a subject guaranteed to rankle the Fett patriarch.

“We all know that’s not true.”

Jango Fett was never one to mince his words and Echo feels like he’s been cut down in one solid punch to his chest. A hit to an open wound that will always fester and never close.

“I’m ordering you to stay home,” Jango pronounces, leaving no room for argument. “You will stay home and keep to the fences. You will not follow Fives out on the hunt and you will signal us if the manor is made vulnerable. Do I make myself clear?”

Echo bits back a cynical laugh. No one in the right mind would have the shebs to attack the Fett estate. He briefly glances at Boba who is looking at him with large unsure eyes and Echo feels even more shaken with embarrassment and shame. Shame that he has burned deep within him from the whispers and taunts dogging his footsteps whenever they deal with the other families. Echo pulls himself up to full attention and gazes past Jango’s shoulder. He can’t look at his father right now. He may break down, he may unleash all his frustration and anger, he may say something he might come to regret. Echo buries it all.

“Yes, sir.” He bites out and turns stiffly to leave the office.

“Echo…” He brushes off Rex’s hand on his shoulder. The last thing Echo needs at this moment is any comfort from his family.

Hello friend Karde!

I've been absent of late from the Tumblr and hadn't realized that you moved! I am back again with a few Rec's though not as many as usual I'm afraid.

@pickleprickle has done it again! The epic showdown of Boba, The Tea shop owner and the Dar'Jettii who threatens them both in The Daimyo's Dream . Honestly I was on the edge of my seat every time i read it. Tombstone showdown vibes!

Our beloved partner in crime @the-rain-on-kamino has returned to us! And she brought with her tales of the Clone Commandos! Invisible barriers featuring Fi and some very complicated feelings will have you cheering and checking to see when the next chapter posts!

I'm still catching up on reading when I can but I promise to have some more Rec's soon. Also still catching up on One Step at a time but oh I think I'm afraid to open the next chapter... hopefully all will turn out well in the end!

PS- I know I'm too late for this week so I apologize now If I send a second

You're never too late! Just early for next week hehe. And heck yes for action and softness and complicated feelings and romance! I have loved what Lee's been writing with Boba Fett and the tea shop owner, and Caro's writing ( Link to Invisible Barriers) makes me feel all soft and YEARNIIIIINGGGG, so these are PERFECT recs! And very much no rush on One Step at a Time! I've been writing so much on that and might stop neglecting my other WIPS for a bit haha. Thank you so much for the recs (and the kind words).

Participate in Fandom Friday to show your favorite creators from this week some love! :)

In honour of the Ahsoka show coming out, I’m coming out of my internet/Tumblr hiatus to write out my feelings, the feelings that caused the hiatus in the first place.

I love Ahsoka as a character. I love Clone Wars.

I love Star Wars Rebels

I want Ezra to come home. To see Hera again. To see Sabine again. Zeb. Chopper. Kallus. Rex.

I want him to meet Jacen

I loved the Mandalorian

I loved the Bad Batch (whitewashing not included)

I loved Book of Boba Fett

But I am terrified of the Ahsoka show

I am terrified at what they are going to do to the characters I love with all my heart. I am terrified of what they are going to do to Sabine. To Ezra. To Hera. To Chopper.

I am terrified they are going to erase Zeb. Terrified they’ll erase the meagre progress we got in the finale, of Kallus and Zeb on Lira San together.

I am terrified that Thrawn is going to be a villain.

“But he is a villain?” I hear you ask. “He was a villain in Rebels? He was the big bad for season 3 and 4?”

He was.

And that’s half the reason I’m scared.

Because I read the books.

Before I read the Thrawn books, Rebels was my favourite piece of Star Wars content/media I’d ever consumed (and I have consumed a metric fuckton of Star Wars). But the two new Thrawn book series beat it out. The new canon ones (Disney canon, if you want to call it that).

I love these books so much that I couldn’t consume any more Star Wars media after them. The live action shows, I could see the hints flooding in, and I have barely a shred of hope left that they won’t take my beloved books and destroy them. By which I mean, destroy Thrawn. This is why I’m so so scared of the Ahsoka show. I retreated from every bit of Star Wars fandom because I just couldn’t handle it.

The Thrawn books set up a beautiful narrative for the time skip in rebels. The hints from both the original trilogy (of Thrawn books) and the Thrawn Ascendancy trilogy wove into the beginnings of an amazing explanation for where Ezra might’ve been during the gap, and did so while exploring Thrawn's character in a way that made me love him. And if you’ve only watched Rebels, you’ll believe me when I say that before reading the books I hated him. Before I read the books I couldn’t imagine liking him. And then I read them. And now the main reason that I am so so so distrustful and scared of the Ahsoka show is that I can see contradictory hints in the trailers, hints at the themes and stories that are going to be explored in the show, and they are all hints pointing towards making Thrawn who he was in the pre-Disney canon, in the old Thrawn novels. In those, he was exactly what you likely think of him as—ruthless, evil, heartless. However you want to describe it. But the newer books (written by the same guy who created Thrawn in the first place, I’d like you to know) changed that. They made him an infinitely more nuanced character, gave him a story that is so much more interesting than an evil dictator. But the trailers for the Ahsoka show make reference to the old books. The set up of the show is making Thrawn out to be the big bad. And when I heard “Heir to the Empire” (the title of one of the old Thrawn books, in which he is exactly that, and is his usual Legends canon nightmareish evil self) I pretty much lost all hope.

Theoretically, all this should’ve been assuaged by the fact that the new Thrawn books are canon. Not Legends canon, they are current canon.

But after how they changed Kanan’s backstory in Bad Batch, contradicting canon comics in favour of their new audiovisual show, I can’t expect much respect for written canon vs audiovisual canon. They’ve already disregarded their books once, why wouldn’t they do it again?

And let’s loop back around to that “but Thrawn was a big bad villain in the Rebels show”, because that ties right in.

Most of us love Dave Filoni. Clone Wars kicked ass. Rebels is amazing. I said it before—it’s my second favourite Star Wars media ever.

However.

Dave Filoni is also involved in the whole changes that happened with Jacen. He did the Bad Batch.

He also did Rebels, and specifically, also chose to make Thrawn the way he was in Rebels.

Compared to how Thrawn is in the new books, written by Timothy Zahn (again, the guy who made Thrawn in the first place), I’d take Zahn Thrawn over Filoni Thrawn any day. Because as I said, he is way more nuanced and complex in the books.

Villain and antagonist are two very different things. A villain is bad. A villain is cruel, and wrong. An antagonist is an opposing force. An opposing force against the protagonist. The protagonist doesn’t have to be a hero. The protagonist is simply the person we are following the story of, the one we hear the side of.

In Rebels, Thrawn is presented as antagonist and villain. He is countering the rebels efforts, doing things they don’t condone. The Empire is the true overarching villain of Rebels, and he is the face of the empire (once the inquisitors are done away with, and Kallus has defected). He and Pryce are the Empire. (Maul’s also an antagonist, but this isn’t about him.)

In the books, Thrawn is the (main) protagonist. He’s not really a hero, not in any usual meaning of the word, but he’s a protagonist.

The other main protagonist for the first book is Eli Vanto. An imperial officer who’s a hick from Wild Space, he’s about as low on the food chain as you could get.

For the first while, the Thrawn books don’t really have a distinct villain. The antagonists are, as could be expected for a book centred on imperial officers, sympathetic, or just plain unimportant enough to really count. Pirates. Smugglers.

And then comes Nightswan.

Nightswan is not a villain—He’s an antagonist. But he’s not a hero either. He’s not even really a rebel, not in with the rebellion, or his own sect like Saw Guerrera. He’s just swindling and fighting because he doesn’t like the empire, but he’s not overly concerned with results. A bit, but not much.

Pryce is a protagonist of the first Thrawn book. She is also, simultaneously, a villain. We watch her turn from a cunning and conniving 30-something, to a cunning, conniving, ruthless 50-something with a body count and a former best friend she turned in, making her rot in prison (because she joined a rebellion after seeing how Pryce was treated by her superiors!).

The last of the conflicts in the first Thrawn book is not a person vs person conflict. It is a person vs society. The last antagonist is the Empire. Or, specifically, the Empire’s xenophobia.

Thrawn is treated like crap by more than half of the people he works with. Eli, hick extraordinaire, the lowest member of the food chain, is not the lowest. Thrawn is. The only thing worse than being a hick from the ass end of nowhere is being an alien from the ass end of nowhere. At every turn, there are enemies watching for Thrawn and Eli to slip up, so they can be sent packing. The only reason they don’t, the only reason they survive, is a combination of one (1) influential non-xenophobic friend (who’s a remnant of the Republic, funnily enough (love you, Yularen)), plain competency at military matters, and a lot of tiptoeing around and making concessions.

“When can we push without being kicked out or killed”. “When do we have to give ground in order to stay in the fleet, and have the chance to do better in the long run”. More often than not, for two people such as themselves, they have to give ground. Eli, and Thrawn, spend a lot of their time in the books having ethical dilemmas and crises of conscious. It’s subtler from Thrawn, but it’s there.

Tell me that’s not more interesting than another black and white imperial villain. Tell me that doesn’t make more sense than a black and white imperial villain when said villain is an alien.

I also… don’t like Lars Mikklesen, heh. I don’t have anything against him, not really, but the problem stems from how he doesn’t help counter what I’m seeing in the trailer(s). Lars Mikkelsen was, indeed, Thrawn’s voice actor in Rebels. However, it’s Dave Filoni’s Thrawn (Rebels Thrawn) that I’m worried about. As we’ve said, Thrawn in Rebels occupies a very black and white villain role, this cold as ice ruthless and cruel and creepy villain, but then they (Disney! Literally Disney! Literally canon!) expanded on him, changing his backstory and history and present to be something way more interesting, way more complicated and nuanced and sympathetic and tbh, not a villain so much as a misguided hero.

That’s the Thrawn I want! That’s the Thrawn I read six books of! That’s the Thrawn that makes a fascinating counter to Ezra’s reckless idealism! But they are hinting at all the wrong hints, and the fact that they keep pulling from Rebels is one part of those hints. Ahsoka snarling in Mando asking for where “Grand Admiral Thrawn” is, is another. “Heir to the empire” is another, and that’s the really, really, really damning one. Anyway, yeah, Lars is not the problem, but he’s another person involved who doesn’t have any exposure to Book Thrawn, so he does nothing to reassure. Also, in the pettier reasons I’m eh on him, lmao, he’s… kinda old for how I think Thrawn should look since we’ve experienced that Chiss seem to age extremely gracefully, and also just generally his face isn’t right, and also… I know he was the first voice but I really like Mark Thompson (the voice actor for the audiobooks) way better, lol.

Other than Thrawn, the trailer(s) worries me that they’re going to pull force-sensitive Sabine out of their asses. There’s no reason to make her force-sensitive, she could use Ezra’s lightsaber without it, and work with Ahsoka without being her padawan (remember how Ahsoka left the Jedi order also?? And refused to train Grogu? Her randomly turning around to train Sabine (who shouldn’t be force sensitive anyway) doesn’t even fit in with their own canon!)

Ahem.

That’s all I can think of right now. If you’ve read the Thrawn books, or if you haven’t but are curious and don’t care about spoilers, this is what I think should’ve/should happen with Ezra, Thrawn, and all the post-rebels pre-rebels epilogue/pre-Ahsoka time.

Nearly ALL of this is Headcanon.

Kaminoans are, in my esteem, militantly pro-euthanasia. They do not believe in prolonging suffering, especially if it is not to the benefit of the person who is suffering.

This is a belief so far down in the Kaminoan's bones that it extends to the products of their cloning process, including the Fett Clones.

While I do not believe the Republic has outlawed self-determinate euthanasia, it is something that falls out of equal protections; it is up to the member state. However, the Republic does default to making it difficult as possible to achieve, with numerous protections put in place to ensure that it is the genuine wish of the patient. Which is all well and good. For... the Republic.

It is a symptom of the Republic having far more freedoms and practicalities, whereas Kamino has been a world that has lived under limited resources since the destruction of its surface.

The idea of not limiting access to self-euthanasia is, to the Kaminoans, a moral imperative to them.

I've begun to headcanon that one of the ways Kamino really chafes against the Jedi (who are really reluctant, though not adverse) and the Republic in general is how the GAR has instituted a policy to limit the access to palliative care to the Clones. To the Kaminoans, THIS is inhumane.

As the Kaminoans are not full-fledge members of the Republic, the Clones fall in the military-N/A grey zone, which defaults to the limited access. The argument I headcanon that Kaminoans give is that, for now, the Clones would fall under the social governance of Kamino's laws.

The idea that the Kaminoans ultimately view unnecessary suffering as a disease in and of itself, and that suffering of an individual suffered by the society. Collectivist Kaminoans, my beloved.

I’ve finally reached season 7 of the clone wars. it’s been an awesome ride! here are my thoughts as a first time watcher of all things prequel-era. after this, I’ll watch revenge of the sith (yes, for the first time. yes i live under a rock. no there is no room for anyone else. find your own.) and Star Wars rebels, and I’ll have finally watched all of the main Star Wars stuff!

Ahsoka’s walkabout arc

-i love the martez sisters. i have an older sister myself, and while our dynamic is pretty different, they didn’t do too bad at capturing the feel of sister duos.

-español subtitles, my beloved. it is so good to have you back in my arms after being without you for season 6. I missed you more than you will ever know. you may not be a perfect translation of the audio, but i love you flaws and all

-I’m definitely skewed from coming to this straight after crystal crisis on Utapau, but the animation is really improved. Rafa’s hair actually moves and people’s lips move more naturally.

-I’m glad that ahsoka left that tube top behind. i hated how impractical her clothes looked in the early seasons

-I’ve reblogged a post about this a bit ago, but i wanted to say this myself. the way the jedi have taken the reputation hit for the senate is interesting to see from the perspective of your average citizen of coruscant. To trace, the war is just life getting harder for her and her sister. she wants to escape to the stars— but that’s where the fighting is happening. and the burden of blame shouldn’t fall so heavily upon the jedi. the Jedi order and it’s principles are themselves victims of the war.

-seeing Bo katan make an appearance was surprising, but ig she had to come back in eventually

-ahsoka’s plan in the final episode was so satisfying to watch. usually saying one thing to an enemy and another to a friend dialogue is super obvious, but it was done well here imo

-how could maul almost see her through the hologram? usually you only see other people, not their surroundings on the other end

-it’s really unlikely, but perhaps leaving her bike with them means the martez sisters will make another appearance. star wars loves cameos, i think it’s reasonable for me to hold out hope

The bad batch story reels

-I’m fond of the design of Anaxes. crunchy, crunchy glass. and a sky so pretty it was hard to focus on the dogfighting

-the way the bad batch pointedly makes fun of “regs” is interesting to me. it isn’t super mean spirited, but it’s biting and frequent enough to make me wonder how clones are perceived by civilians, and how they see themselves. from the clone bar on coruscant, we know there’s some, though admittedly little (because wartime) interaction with civilians who aren’t inhabiting the planets they fight on. you know philosophers in the gffa would be having a field day with the ethics of cloning soldiers. see, there’s some things in this universe you have to write off because of context— like the padawans technically being child soldiers. we can write that off because it’s a show that includes children in its target audience, and kids deserve to see themselves going on adventures. but this isn’t the case with clones. pong krell, for one. the famous “we’re clones sir, we’re meant to be expendable” among other lines, make it clear the essential humanity (lack of a better word) of the clones is in question by the inhabitants of the in-universe. in a roundabout way, I’m suggesting it’s possible the bad batch’s jabs at “regs” come from a place insecurity about their own individuality as much as it does a reaction to being shunned for not fitting in with their brothers. since they’re mutated, different, they have biological proximity to naturally born people. they’re similar to their progenitor, jango fett, but very distinct in personality and appearance, like how I’m similar and distinct from my parents.

-man, i don’t get why people rag on mace windu so much. he’s a generally good dude and a cool character. he’s firmly lawful good, which can be boring when it’s played wrong. windu is not played wrong. his character works, and i like the episodes where he’s gotten more screen time, and this is one of them.

-no disrespect if you like them, but i am. not sold on the bad batch. maybe things are different in the bad batch show, but here, they don’t feel like complete characters. like, this is a fine foundation for a four (five after echo joins) man band, but you’ve got to put those guys back in the oven they aren’t done yet. as I’ve rambled about above, I’m not averse to the concept of mutated clones because there’s some really neat potential to explore how clones and non-clones view one another and each other. the 100% success rate thing is pretty corny even for Star Wars, but i also don’t think tbb undermines the regular clones individualities, provided there’s some follow up on that how-does-clone-prejudice-work thing. what i am averse to is changing their facial features (mainly tech, but also crosshair) to be more typically white, like thinner noses, in an attempt to make them more visually distinct. the other aspects of their designs, physical and character-wise, make them plenty distinct. let them look like Morrison dammit! this is why I’m probably not going to watch tbb show. it was hard enough to sit through a four episode arc with them, i don’t think i can make it through a whole season.

-oo, foreshadowing anakin’s fall to the dark side when he kills trench. i love a good tragedy

-obi wan definitely knows padme and anakin are boning, right? who doesn’t know that they’re a couple at this point, honestly. and the ones who don’t should be able to figure it out pretty quick when padme’s pregnant and the father is ~unknown~ cmon.

Siege of Mandalore arc

-man hang on a minute. i need a minute alright

-i see potential for a short that follows what bo-katan and ahsoka have gotten up to in between oba dias and the siege. they’ve clearly gotten to know each other a little, and while it makes sense that we don’t waste any time on their relationship, it could be cool to see how their partnership developed. would also have the benefit of filling out how Bo-katan has progressed as a character.

-maul is so obsessed with obi wan and kenobi just.. doesn’t care all that much about his arch nemesis. yeah I killed him once, it didn’t stick. have fun fighting him ahsoka!

-you really don’t notice how much a character has grown on you until you realize you care about them deeply even when they have plot armor huh? yeah, ahsoka and rex have entrenched themselves in my heart.

-now, I only know revenge of the sith from cultural osmosis, but that’s enough to not only understand what’s going on off screen at the same time, but to effectively be in darth maul’s place. everything is falling to pieces and nobody but you can see it yet. the jedi, the republic, the separatists, all of it

-this arc got allll the crunchy visual effects. breaking glass, embers, smoke, the works. wish they didn’t make maul’s lightsaber bizarrely skinny

-I especially loved maul and ahsoka together in this. they parallel each other in a way that I hasn’t noticed before, how they’re both apprentices who failed (from a certain pov) in a way that saved themselves

-maul’s dialogue and voice acting is mwah mwah. he’s gentlemanly without being aristocratic, or becoming a cliche mob boss kind of character

-katee sackoff is truly perfect as bo katan, and I’m not just saying that because I had a crush on Starbuck in battlestar galactica. i cant imagine a better (voice) actress for the role

-hello, ursa wren. how have you been holding up among the hordes of aggressively blond blue eyed whites? there surely must be better ways to add Viking influence that aren’t making the mandalorians look like Swedish racists

-ahsoka technically isn’t a jedi, but in this arc it’s really obvious that she had the skill to be a jedi knight. she would’ve become one if she hadn’t left the order. her skill at adapting under high pressure and at combat (she’s a match for maul himself!) don’t let you forget that she is well past being at padawan level

-i’m sure i violated so many viewing guides by watching this before revenge of the sith but it worked out fine, so •_•

-the painted helmets….

-hey, hey. don’t cry. Fives saved rex and ahsoka, okay? think about that. his death wasn’t a complete waste in the end at least

-I’m looking forward to seeing what rex gets up to after this. i know he shows up in rebels, ahsoka too, which will also be interesting to watch
