Love In Silence
Tumblr media
Marrok x I’m no Jedi reader
A powerful match.
Angst / Fluff
1 year ago
“You wish for me to work with… Him?” I motioned to the tall dark figure.
His posture was tilted downwards to the left, as if he didn’t have a care in the world… It irked me.
But those were the first words I ever said in the presence of Marrok. I remember that clearly.
“The force has showed me the truth. I have seen it my padawan, you two would be more formidable together.” My master Baylan stood beside Shin.
I stared at the masked man who hasn’t even said a word. Why isn’t he saying anything?
“Wouldn’t Shin be a better fit?” I motioned to the girl who was like a sister to me. She raised her brow at me and I gave her a shrug.
“No. Shin still has much to learn about the ways of the force.” Baylan explained.
I crossed my arms as I turned away from the inquisitor, “You know I work better alone.”
“Yes and that is something we must fix.” Baylan sighed, “You must learn this for when you train your own padawan.”
“But Master-” I began to say something, but he cut me off with a raise of his hand.
“That is enough.” My master’s voice darkened and I knew then that I had to obey, “Do as I say, padawan.”
I bowed my head, “Yes master.”
“Shin come with me.” Baylan motioned for her to follow which she did, but not before passing by me with a smirk as if to say… Good luck.
I huffed as the door closed and my attention travel back to the inquisitor.
“Do you have anything to say?” I asked him with my arms crossed.
Silence.
I waved one of my hands about with an annoyed expression on my face, “Do you talk at all?”
Silence.
“Well this is going to be fun.” I sighed as I took a seat.
Just perfect…
Eight months later and I was still attached to the tall inquisitor. Nothing I seemed to do would make him leave. Not to mention the fact that it was like talking to a ship wall.
“This isn’t working!” I yelled, as I used the force to throw a boulder off a cliff.
We were on a planet as we waited for our next orders to free Morgan. It was filled with much crash and cliffs that overlooked a massive sea. It was away from any civilization which made it easier for me to throw boulders during my tantrums.
“You need to focus.” My master held in a sigh as he watched the two of us spar.
He’s been trying for months to make us fight as if we were one and yet the only thing we have managed to do is not slice each others heads off with our lightsabers.
“I am focused, but him!” I motioned to the cocky man who has not said one word to me for months, “He’s not following anything I’m telling him, he’s just doing his own thing! It’s… It’s frustrating!”
“To fight together is to follow each others movements. To know one another.”
“But I don’t know him! And he hasn’t said one word to me to even try to know me. And- and just look at him!” I motioned to the way he stood so nonchalant as if he had better things to do with his time.
Maybe he did, but I sure as the force didn’t care.
I groaned, “All I get from him is that cocky stance and brooding nature. What am I supposed to do with that?”
I glanced over at Shin who was trying not to laugh at my demise, but failed to hide the smirk on her face.
“I see you.” I glared at her to which her smirk grew.
Baylan shook his head, “I’m sending you both on a mission.”
“What?” I looked back towards our master, “A mission? But we’re not ready.”
“You need to find a way to work together before Morgan is freed or else we’ll have a bigger problem on our hands. Now.” Baylan pulled out his data pad, showing coordinates to a shipment yard on the world we’re currently on.
“I need you both to secure some parts for the ship. I’m sure you both can handle that.” Baylan raised an eyebrow.
“Yes master.” I said and this time I held in my sigh as I headed to my speeder.
“Try to keep up.” I muttered to Marrok as I hoped onto my speeder and took off.
I didn’t look back to see if he was, I could tell he was behind me as I felt his force signature.
I can’t believe I have to do a task as simple as this. I thought as I stopped behind a hill.
Over it was a shipment yard that were filled with workers from this planet.
“We’ll have to wait until night.” I spoke softly, before getting comfortable against the plushness of the grassy hill.
“I’d say we can talk about ourselves, but that would be a waste.” I muttered as I closed my eyes.
He didn’t respond of course, but I could hear the annoyance in his voice as he let out a huff. I could hear him make himself more comfortable a few feet away from me and I decided Now was a better time then any to take a nap.
A touch more gentler then I expected awoke me as I blinked back the heaviness of sleep. I looked up to find Marrok towering over me, his armor glinting in the moonlight.
“Are you going move?” I asked to which I received a shake of his head as he stood up and began to walk.
I followed the silent inquisitor as we made our way down to the shipment yard which was now relatively empty aside from a few security guards here and there.
“This is what we need. I’ll find these two parts and you find this one.” I handed him the data pad with the list, “You head that way and I’ll go this way. I’ll comm you when I’m done and if anything goes south, head back to the speeders.” I told him before walking off.
It was almost too easy finding the first part I needed and I was glad that it was small enough to shove into my back pack. Now the other part… The other one was safely tucked away behind a security building making it nearly impossible with the guards blocking its way.
Should I comm Marrok? I wondered, but immediately shook my head at the thought. I didn’t need him. I can do this on my own.
It seemed simply enough in my head. Sneak past the guards, grab the panel and make a quick break for it. Now I just need a distraction…
I looked around and found a grate. I used the force to lift it before sending it in a direction far enough from me. I could tell the guards took the bait as they immediately unholstered their blasters to check out the noise. I snuck by the moment their backs were turned and felt a rush through me when I grabbed the panel.
I did it!
Or so I thought I did…
A sharp pain in my gut had me dropping the panel as a young guard stood five feet away, his hands shaking vigorously as he stood there with a mixture of shock and fear.
“Nice… Shot.” I muttered as I fell to my knees.
I lifted my wrist up to my lips as I commed Marrok a simple command, “Run.”
“Don’t move!” The young guard yelled, “Who are you calling? Are there more of you?!”
I shook my head, “Just me kid.”
“I don’t believe you! We shoot thieves around here!” He yelled as he took a wobbly step towards me.
I motioned to my gut with a cringe, “I can see that. So why not finish the job?”
“I am!” He yelled and he seemed so certain of himself as he pointed the weapon at me again.
I closed my eyes and hoped that Marrok had gotten far away from here with at least one of the parts. Better one then nothing. I thought as I felt sadness flood through me. Of course this had to be the way I go instead of for something I believe in.
I waited for the final shot, but the sound was not what I expected as I heard a lightsaber ignite.
I opened my eyes to find Marrok killing the young guard in an easy motion before swiftly making his way to my side. He carefully picked me up in his arms and grabbed the panel before casually making his way out of the shipment yard. I could make out the bodies of a dozen guards as he walked by them without a care.
“I thought I told you to run.” I muttered as I began to feel the heavy weight of sleep take over me.
The last thing I heard from him was a rumble in his chest as he let out a deep, “Hm.”
Now
The ship was silent as we were being transported to a factory carrying a hyperdrive we will need. This will help us grateful in our attempt to build a spacecraft great enough to get us to Grand Admiral Thrawn. I leaned my head back against my seat as I tried to deal with the unsettling feeling in my gut.
I glanced over to my partner. To say that things have changed greatly in a year between us would be an understatement. After that night at the shipment yard where he risked his life to save mine… Something formed between us that brought us closer together. To say I was now attached to the silent inquisitor was absolutely true.
“Marrok…” I spoke his name, my tone growing much more gentler with him after these past few months.
I made sure to keep my voice low so that the droid pilot I call Lindt and Marrok’s battle droid wouldn’t pick up on our conversation as I waited for Marrok to respond.
The slight tilt of his head told me to continue.
I traced his helmet with my eyes, taking in details I have already memorized.
“Do you think we’re really going to find the… Grand Admiral Thrawn?” I whispered.
He didn’t give me an answer, but he listened and that was all I needed from him. I have since grown used to his silence and small hm’s as the days carried on. Before it had annoyed me to no end, but now… Now it has brought me an odd comfort in my life that I never thought I needed.
“I’m worried.” I continued as I turned my face from him to hide the guilt on my face at even speaking against my master and Morgan’s wishes.
But with him, I felt like I could tell him anything.
“I’m scared that we may be doing something wrong here… That the Grand Admiral is not supposed to be found.” I sighed as I closed my eyes, “I don’t know if my master can see the signs through the force and I know that I shouldn’t be questioning his wisdom, but I can’t help… But question all of this.”
A small part of me worried that he would stick his lightsaber through my chest and end me for good.
“I’m sorry I shouldn’t have said anything…” I muttered sheepishly.
I was going to let the silence continue and pray silently to the force that hopefully he wouldn’t relay this to the others, but then…
I felt his gloved fingers dance across my arm before finding his hand found it’s rightful place in the palm of my hand and I knew from that touch he wouldn’t whisper what I said to any other soul.
The comforting squeeze of his hand brought a small smile to my face and a calmness that spread over my heart. I leaned my head on his shoulder as his thumb brushed against my hand.
“Thank you.” I murmured.
“We will be docking in one minute.” Lindt called out as he began our short descent.
“Thank you Lindt.” I said as I stood up, “I’ll go with you.” I told Marrok as I grabbed my lightsaber.
Except Marrok was already in front of me, gently stopping me with a placement of his hand on my shoulder.
“But what if something happens to you?” I asked worriedly, “How will we protect each other if we’re apart?”
He only shook his head and I knew that his order was final. We felt the motion of the ship dock, Marrok gently holding my waist to keep me steady.
My shoulders slumped in defeat, “I don’t want you to go alone… I want to be with you.” I muttered selfishly.
He gently placed his helmet against my forehead and I took a deep breath as another calm wave washed over me.
“Alright, but be safe and… Come back to me.” I stated, pressing a light kiss to his helmet.
A small hm could be heard from his modulator before he turned and descended the ship with one of his battle droids.
“I’ve been ordered to take us to a safe distance until Marrok is ready for pickup.” Lindt said.
“Alright.” I nodded as I took my seat once again.
I closed my eyes and felt his signature through the force, praying that everything will go smoothly… Minutes that turned into an hour passed and my growing anxiety to get to Marrok grew as I waited for the blinking light of the comms to signal he was done.
“It shouldn’t be too long now, right Lindt?” I asked the pilot droid.
“By my calculations, everything should be ready in about ten minutes.” Lindt stated.
I nodded my head with a sigh of relief. That didn’t sound so bad. I could wait for that…
But then I felt something different in the force and I knew then that there was a Jedi present.
“Something’s wrong. We need to get to Marrok now.” I told Lindt.
“But I was ordered to-” Lindt began to say, but I spoke over him.
“I don’t care. I’m telling you right now we have to go.” I urged and I was grateful when Lindt took off, flying the ship to the meeting point.
All I could feel was intense anxiety and fear as the ramp opened to find Marrok battling against a Jedi… Not just any Jedi, but Ahsoka Tano.
I urged him through the force to stop fighting and get on the ship and I was grateful when he did because knowing him… He would fight until his death and that was something I did not want to see.
I grabbed onto him the moment he stepped onto the ship as I looked him over. I could see him staring out at Ahsoka. I turned to the Jedi and watched as Marrok summoned his lightsaber towards us, something that Ahsoka easily dodged.
“I’ve only heard stories about her. She is powerful.” I murmured as I turned away from her to check for any wounds, “Are you alright?”
He nodded his head once and I let out a sigh of relief when I saw he had not been harmed. He held his own against a powerful Jedi and that my chest fill up with pride.
I placed my hand on the side of his helmet, tilting his head down to look at me, “You did well.” I spoke with a softly smile as I felt his fingers graze along my sides, “But I’m not leaving you alone again. Like Master Baylan said, we are more formidable together.”
Who would have thought my master would be right?

Just to put out my own crackpot theory: Marrok was Baylan’s padawan at the time of Revenge of the Sith.
They got separated by Order 66 and when they next met, Marrok was an inquisitor and Baylan had already taken on Shin as his new apprentice.
Marrok isn’t angry about it exactly — he shouldn’t, coz anger will push him right back to the Dark Side — but he’s not not angry.

I have (spoilery) Thoughts on Ahsoka episode four
First of all how dare you
Second of all how dare you
THIRD OF ALL HOW DARE YOU
Bro why is Hera taking Jacen on this mission? I know she has a penchant for lugging around badass kids, but he's what, 10? A bit young imo.
Called it. Marrok was a red herring. Filoni knew that we'd all go nuts about the identity of yet another cool masked dude and let fan speculation run wild. Though him turning to dust does bring up new questions...
Sabine and Shin round two! I like that Sabine was actually able to use her armor/equipment this time and fight Shin on more even ground.
That moment when Marrok died and Shin seemed genuinely shook? And Sabine recognizing this and trying to take advantage of Shin's shookness? *chef's kiss*
Really good special effects in the shot with the ring coming out of the atmosphere! That was stunning!
Ahsoka and Baylan fight was genuinely cool, and the choreography felt much more Ahsoka-esque. Particularly that flip she did, which didn't look wired like the one from Ep 2.
So Clan Wren is dead. :/ Not surprising, I assumed that would be Sabine's character arc when the series was first announced (feeling survivor's guilt after the Purge), but what does Ahsoka have to do with that? Is it an emotional support thing?
Sabine joining up with the bad guys makes sense. Her #1 priority is finding Ezra and they're her only means of getting there. She's probably planning to gun down Thrawn in the process, though I imagine Baylan is fully aware of that and planning accordingly.
On the bright side, this gives us more opportunities to explore her rivalry with Shin...
Speaking of, love the dynamic with Shin being the feral one yet actually listening to/respecting her master. I imagine there's a story there and I'm very curious to hear it.
I don't know whether to be mad or impressed that Jacen said part of the Iconic Star Wars Line but not the full thing.
Beautiful transition between the ocean and the World Between Worlds. It looks absolutely gorgeous in live-action.
Why and how is Ahsoka in the World Between Worlds?
HAYDEN ALREADY???? I didn't think he'd show up until episode 5.
"SNIPS" (!!!!!)
Holy fucking shit I'm losing my mind.
He looks way better than he did in Kenobi, but the de-aging isn't 100% great. Still though.
Interesting that Ahsoka's first instinct was to call him "Master". Old habits (and attachments) die hard I guess. They're going to have some serious issues to sort out next ep though.
Lmao casuals must be super confused by this ending. Imagine that.
Goddamn that's a cliff-hanger. And on the strongest episode so far!

The more I think about it the more I realize they could've done so much with the basic concept of Marrok in how he relates to Ahsoka.
-Marrok is an Inquisitor, a member of a now extinct institution, with the regime that sponsored them having been destroyed by the Rebellion.
-Ahsoka is a former Jedi who's Order was destroyed in a genocide campaign that led to the rise of the very regime that created the Inquisitors.
Both lost their comrades and their entire way of life. Now obviously the Inquisitorium was evil and had it coming while the Jedi were heroes that got betrayed, but still, the two are in a similar situation... They really could've used that in the show.
Like imagine if Ahsoka actually empathizes with Marrok despite his evil because she sees that he's lost and confused without the Inquisitorium or the Empire, maybe he reminds her of what it was like for her after Order 66.
Maybe this leads her to try and save Marrok because on top of that she's also hung up on what happened to Anakin and wants to try and save a Dark Sider. As sort of a way to heal after Anakin's fall.
And so when she's forced to kill Marrok because he rejects this... She could actually be distraught and upset because she pitied him and wanted to help him.
You know... Instead of using him as a prop to show off Ahsoka's moves.

Okay but. I'm a little pissed that we're rehashing the "Inquisitors are generic NPC bad guys that get cut down within 0.00001 seconds" formula, and I'm more than a little pissed that Marrok just got dusted like that with no explanation, but that aside? I actually thought his ending was pretty cool, I'm a sucker for creepy Nightsister mystical stuff. I'm hoping we get more details later about how he was created, whether he's a reanimated corpse or just Nightsister magick in a suit, but yeah. Not the worst ending for him I could have imagined. Better than him being Ezra

My thoughts on the Ahsoka finale (spoilers below)
While I really liked the episode I found it just a touch underwhelming, since it’s clearly setup for Dave Filoni’s movie. There are somethings that I wasn’t a huge fan of:
I wasn’t a fan of Ezra getting a lightsaber. They just happened to have a spare Khyber Crystal laying around? I thought it would be more interesting if either, A) Ezra got one of the Crystals from Shin or Baylon and Ahsoka taught him how to “heal” the crystal for his own lightsaber, or B) them construct a Shoto lightsaber for defense since they’re going into a war zone. Maybe a combination of the two. I just felt that Ezra’s new style of fighting make’s him more unique among Jedi characters and I’m actually disappointed it was abandoned so quickly. Also with a Shoto he could still make it resemble Kanan’s lightsaber.
Morgan Elsbeth’s power up was pointless. It seemed to be there just to give her a weapon to fight against Ahsoka, but they could have just given her the sword. Morgan was able to hold her own well enough in Mandalorian season 2, with the sword and the Resurrected Night Troopers in support it would be more than reasonable to think it would be enough to swing the odds in Morgan’s favor.
Sabine’s force push. Considering she’s spent the entire season trying to tap into the Force the moment she pulls her lightsaber to her feels earned. Her being able to Force Push Ezra to the Star Destroyer feels rushed. Like instead they could just have Sabine give Ezra some Mandalorian grappling line to make the jump (i imagine Sabine has some spares on the ship). Also I don’t think Ezra should be the one to go back, but I’ll get there in a second.
Why was Ezra still wearing the helmet when he gets off the Imperial Shuttle? We the audience knows it’s him, and the dramatic reveal could have just as easily been achieved with him walking helmet less off the ramp. Side note: Hera should have given an order to stand down. While I’m sure there are people in that hanger that know Ezra, a good chunk of them might not so Hera needed to give a stand down order before her troops get a little trigger happy.
Finally, I think Sabine should’ve been the one to go home. It would have been so heartbreaking for Sabine to do all this, bring about Thrawn’s return and the revival of the Empire, only to fail to bring Ezra home but also leave Ahsoka behind in the process. I know that it was for the Master and Apprentice dynamic payoff, but the parallel between Ahsoka and Anakin, being separated again after already parting ways once before, would have been beautiful. Just my two cents.
I still really liked the show (except for a few other things like Marrok being a red herring when I was really hoping for Barris Offee-Ahsoka face off, maybe in the movie) and I’m really looking forward to more.

That episode of Ahsoka was my favorite so far. (I know there is only 3 eps out 😂)
I love the training sequences with Sabine, Huyang, and Ahsoka. It felt very samurai like and I loved it. It reminds me of Trials of the Darksaber so much.
My personal theory is Sabine won't ever be able to weild the Force (ie lifting things) but she can learn the Jedi ways. If she does actually weild the Force I would think it appear in relation to Ezra (like how Ezra force pushes Kallus away from Zeb).
You can tell Sabine is rusty in her fighting techniques on the ship which I appreciate. She's been on Lothal for years so she hasn't used that skill in a while. I also loved that we are seeing her and Ahsoka mend their relationship (I NEED THE BACKSTORY DAVE).
Huyang never change I love you. Sabine fixing the ship brought back so many Rebels memories.
PURRGIL. I love them so much 😭 Sabine was so surprised to see them but her flying thru them was *chef's kiss*. I imagine she has spent the last decade so mad at them for taking Ezra but now she os happy because that means they can possibly take her to him. She has hope ❤️
Love the beef between Shin and Morgan. Love the dynamic bw Shin and Marrok.
HERA SYNDULLA. Tear those senators to shreads girl. MEW did a fantastic job. The fact that she kept working to search for Ezra despite what the NR wanted 😭
JACEN SYNDULLA. I am in love with the adorable little green bean. Him and Chopper causing caos is perfection. 'Aunt Sabine' my heart 😭😭 'I want to be a Jedi' 😭😭😭 His shoulder pauldron that looks exactly like Kanan’s 😭😭😭 I hope we get more Jacen in future episodes. I want more Jacen and Chopper. I need Ezra to train him.
My only complaints: no Kanan mention when there were 2 perfect opportunities for it and I wish it was a longer episode.

~ Goodbye My friend ~
- Shin, come on, we have to go.
-No
-Shin, I know you liked him a lot but we have to go.
-I don't want to go.... not without him...Marrok...
- I'm sorry, Shin, but he's dead now. Why do you mourn his death? He was just a mercenary.
- He wasn't just a mercenary... He was my friend... My best friend...
With Marrok's death in the series. I imagined Shin crying, holding the mask close to her, remembering all the good memories she'd had with him. And Baylan Skoll not understanding his apprentice's pain.

I NEED someone to validate my leah and bran cornick fancast of tom and zendaya
Okay first of all SO jazzed that someone is coming to me with Bran and Leah fancasting. Let’s get some photos up in here, and to really play into the Cornick fantasy I’m gonna try to find ones where Tom isn’t looking at Zendaya like she hangs the moon. (As anyone would, really)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Love that Zendaya means Leah is a tall glamazon she deserves to be
Love that Bran is shorter than Leah. Man was born in antiquity, even if he was tall then there’s no way he’s tall now
Tom definitely fits the “could be your pizza delivery boy” and “everyone’s favorite friendly Marrok” vibes Bran likes to project
My big question is, could Tom pull off the darker dictatorial and manipulative sides of Bran? Would I believe him when he brushes Leah off in public? When Charles defers to his will? It’s hard for me to imagine because my brain auto jumps to Spider-Man and “oh gee Mr. Stark” haha.
Final conclusion: I may not be 100% sold, but I definitely want to see that screen test now

In My Dreams
Tumblr media
Marrok x Jedi reader
You’ve been having dreams of a man you’ve never met before…
Angst / Fluff
It’s been like this for months…
The first dream I had of him, he stood in a fog. His cape flowing from the small breeze that surrounded us and he was silent. Always silent…
Dark clothes. Figure hidden. Face never seen. Always hidden and yet so gentle.
And that helmet.
That helmet that concealed the face of who I most desperately wanted to see. I needed to know who was behind that mask. Who plagued my dreams night after night. He was like an itch I couldn’t scratch.
“You look tired.” Hera mentioned as we followed the odd man throughout the factory.
“I haven’t been sleeping well. It’s nothing serious, I’m alright.” I replied with a soft smile.
She took my answer with a nod of her head as she continued ahead.
“Same dream again?” Ahsoka asked in a much lower tone as we walked a couple steps behind.
I sighed softly, “I don’t know what it means or what the force is trying to tell me, but he’s always just… There.”
I kept the blush from blooming across my cheeks as I thought of the more intimate mates I’ve had with the strange masked man.
They were usually gentle as I would spend my time tracing the outlines of his black helmet as he touched my face with his gloved hands. Always covered… Never any skin shown to give more light to this mystery.
“There is always a reason. Trust in the force.” Ahsoka commented.
“Of course.” I nodded gratefully to my friend.
I just wondered when the force will reveal him to me.
“It’s leaving on that ship.” The kind droid pointed to the ship we were questioning, outing all those who have been lying to us the moment we stepped foot in this place.
“For the empire!” A voice cried out, but it didn’t do him much good as I shoved my lightsaber through his gut.
“Of course they are traitors.” I muttered disappointedly.
“No time to dwell, Hera get to the ship.” Ahsoka told Hera before motioning for me to follow her out the window.
As I landed on the ground with only a slight discomfort in my knees, I wondered when will the lying end. Why couldn’t these people see that working for the empire was a bad thing? I clenched my fist to control the anger rising in me.
If only they could look past their greed.
I followed closely behind Ahsoka as we tried to catch up to the fleeting ship. Our footsteps smacked against the ground as we pushed faster until she stopped… And I stopped. Our gazes pulled away from the ship towards two figure and that was when I saw…
My gaze flickered between the familiar figure down towards Ahsoka who already took out her two light sabors. I stepped up to her, gently resting my hand on her shoulder.
The look she gave me was one of confusion, but I could only offer her a slight shake of my head.
“It’s him…” I spoke, barely above a whisper, the dread and anxiety clear in my voice.
Of course he was an enemy.
Of course he was going to try to kill me.
Ahsoka could see the turmoil written across my face, “I’ll take out the droid.” Was all she said and I was grateful she didn’t press with anymore questions.
I didn’t know if I’d be able to answer them anyways.
I watched her step to the side in front of the droid and I took my place in front of him…
I slowly reached up, pulling my black hood off my head, just wondering if he would recognize me… If he’s been dreaming about me for months as well.
“Do you…” I spoke softly as an unsure tone took over my voice, “Do you know who I am?”
I watched him make no notion of recognization as he reached up to his shoulder to release the clasp on his cape.
I watched it drop to the ground while he pulled out his own lightsaber.
He doesn’t know…
My heart sunk in my chest and I wondered what I should do at this moment. Do I fight him? Do I tell him I’ve dreamt of us resting in bed on a spring morning? Do I tell him despite not knowing him, I felt like he’s been with me for years?
I reached for my own lightsaber as soon as I saw the familiar color of red. Purple mirrored his red as ignited mine and it was in that quite moment of breath before he lunged and the fight began.
I kept my pace steady as I mirrored his movement and blocked against his hits.
He was fast. I’ll give him that. I thought as I threw a lunge of my own, one he blocked with ease.
This went on for a while, neither of us growing out of breath. It could almost be taken as a dance as we stepped around each other. If I closed my eyes I could almost imagine when we were dancing… In my dreams.
He was agile and swift there too.
“Do you not know who I am?” I asked him again as we pressed our lightsabers against one another.
Again my question was met with silence…
I could hear as Ahsoka sliced through the droid, ending her own battle and I feared that my moments with this mysterious man was running thin.
“Please.” I struggled to say as I pushed against his attacks that just kept coming.
It was on pure accident that my lightsaber grazed against his side causing us both to jump back, “I don’t want to hurt you.” I said quickly with panic lacing my voice.
There was no falter in his step as he continued to fight back even harder than before and a graze to my side with his lightsaber told me that he wasn’t going to back down. The yelp I let out as I felt the singeing pain had Ahsoka taking a step forward. I held up a hand towards her quickly to stop her from taking another step.
I knew I had to find away to subdue him before Ahsoka found it necessary to step in and I seized my chance with a quick footing exchange and a roll of my wrist.
In a blink of an eye he was kneeling on the ground with two lightsabers near his neck. He didn’t move. Neither of us did.
I took in a breath as I thought about my options.
I could take him prisoner… But then he would never trust me. I could kill him… But what would that solve? I could…
I turned off the lightsabers as I slowly kneeled in front of him. I prayed to the force that I was making the best decision as I looked at the way his fists clenched in his lap.
“I’ve had dreams about you.” I confided to him in a soft whisper.
He didn’t make a sound of acknowledgment, but I knew he heard each word that I spoke.
“You might not know me… But I feel like I know you…” I clipped my lightsaber to my side before slowly reaching out to his closed fists.
I gently grabbed his right hand, opening it before placing his lightsaber in the palm of his hand.
“I don’t want to hurt you…” I placed my hand against his side as I willed the force to heal him until there was only a scar marred against his skin, “I couldn’t.” I whispered the truth as I waited for his answer.
I had a feeling that he wouldn’t speak and he wouldn’t turn against his allegiance for some random Jedi he just met… But I hope that this was an offer of truce and just maybe… Maybe somewhere down the line what I see in my dreams will become true.
He stood up slowly. He didn’t try to ignite his saber and stab me. Neither did he show any indication of staying, but he watched me stand. Waited as I unclipped my black robe and handed it to him.
“I hope you’ll wear it next time we meet.” I spoke lightly in a soft tone to show him I was no threat… At least not to him I wasn’t.
My heart practically leapt in my chest of joy as he took the peace offering before he was running back to his ship where his loyalties lied.
Ahsoka made her way to my side as we watched them fly off. She didn’t hold any judgement towards me, after all she knows how much I speak of the man in my dreams.
“You didn’t kill him.” She spoke.
“I know.” I replied softly.
“He didn’t kill you.” She noted with a small smile on her face.
“I know.” I nodded at the realization and I couldn’t help, but give a smile of my own.
“What will you do?” She asked as she glanced at me.
I held my hand to my side to try to stop the ache of the lightsaber scar that he gave me. It was comforting in a way, knowing that we had equal marks… Almost like matching tattoos that would have us remembering this day for the rest of our lives.
I looked away her gentle gaze to the black cape that he threw on the ground earlier. I carefully picked it up as I ran my hand threw the thick fabric in my hands before replying truthfully…
“I will follow my dreams.”

And his thick cock stretching your tight hole feels so good that you can’t help but cream around him and moan so loud that he has to shove two gloved fingers inside your mouth to shut you up 🤤

EU/Canon Character Pairs
For fun - characters from the old EU and canon I think are similar in some way and some are more superficial than others (since I’m not necessarily familiar with all these EU characters). I imagine them drawn together in pairs in the same way as the Legacy comic covers of Adam Hughes, but that's for good artists to do.
Ania Solo & Rey
Galaxy-roaming scavengers. 
Vergere & Ezra Bridger
Jedi lost somewhere far, far away.
(You know exactly why he's here)
Dass Jennir & Kanan Jarrus 
Jedi forced to adapt to the dark times. 
Soontir Fel & Soren Keize 
Respected Imperial aces.
Mirta Gev & Sabine Wren 
Mandalorian women with complicated family history.
Ferus Olin & Cal Kestis 
Padawans on the run.
(As for Jedi Survivor, I’d pair that Cal fighting on his alone against impossible odds with Kerra Holt.)
Nomi Sunrider & Avar Kriss
Exceptional Jedi from long ago. 
Ysanne Isard & Gideon 
Imperial warlords and knowledgeable schemers.
Winter Celchu & Vel Sartha
Agents of the early rebellion.
Celeste Morne & Dagan Gera
Jedi of old, sealed away to receive a rude awakening in the future.
Ordo Skirata & Hunter 
Leaders of a family of unique clones.
Fenn Shysa & Bo–Katan Kryze 
Mandalorian leaders fighting against Imperial occupation.
Stormtroopers of the Fel Empire & First Order Stomtroopers 
Soldiers of the future.
Garm Bel Iblis & Saw Gerrera
Opposed to Mon Mothma and fighting their own war against the Empire.
Fordo & Rex 
Captains with Jaig eyes. 
Jacen Solo & Ben Solo 
Descendants of Anakin Skywalker, seduced to follow the footsteps of Darth Vader.
Natasi Daala & Ellian Zahra
Tarkin’s failed protégés.
Lorana Jinzler & Shin Hati 
Dutiful apprentices involved with Thrawn.
Hanharr & Krrsantan 
Powerful, fierce and estranged from their people. 
Tsavong Lah & Grievous
Proud warriors and commanders with a grudge against Jedi.
The Hand of Judgment & Clone Force 99
Deserters from the Empire.
Pors Tonith & Trench
Brilliant Separatist commanders foiled by Anakin Skywalker.
Warb Null & Marrok
Armored tools of the dark side.
Bria Tharen & Qi’ra 
Han Solo’s first love.
AG-37 & IG-11
More than just assassin droids. 
The Imperial Knights & The Inquisitors  
Force-wielding servants of the Empire. 
C-3PX & 0-0-0 
Protocol droids specialized in a different form of human/cyborg relations.

thoughts on the new ahsoka series's first 2 episodes?
My feelings are pretty mixed.
The good:
I'm very interested in Baylan and Shin. Shin seems delightfully unhinged. They aren't as morally ambiguous as I'd been expecting, but they still hold my attention and I want to know everything about them. Them plus the possibly-final inquisitor, a Nightsister, and the HK droids make for a good villain lineup.
E-Wings!
The air battle with Hera and Chopper working together was great.
Sabine's pet cat sure is a critter. Love that thing.
I was initially ambivalent about Sabine possibly being Force-sensitive, but now I'm intrigued by the idea that while she can use the Force, she's utterly garbage at it. Many characters training in the Force seem at least average, I can't recall seeing anyone on the wrong end of the bell curve.
The bad:
This is supposed to be the sequel to Rebels, but it feels like there's an entire intervening story missing. Presumably, someone came to pick Ahsoka up from Malachor, but we don't know when or who. She found Huyang, who obviously survived Order 66, and they seem to have been traveling together for a while. I don't think Ahsoka and Sabine even spoke to each other before now, and suddenly they have a history as master and apprentice which ended poorly. Sabine discovered she's Force-sensitive, which could be a dramatic revelation for any character. Ahsoka used to point out she's not a Jedi, now she either feels better about associating with the order or doesn't care to correct people. It's like her and Luke knowing each other; I can easily pick up on what's going on, but I would've liked to see how we got here.
This must be incredibly confusing for anyone who hasn't watched all of TCW and Rebels. Plenty of information is worked into the dialogue, but if this is someone's first exposure to these characters, I can't imagine it holding interest.
The meh:
The acting is pretty stiff, except for Clancy Brown, because he's outstanding. He's only got a few lines, but he put way more emotion in than anybody else did.
The petty gripes:
Oh yeah Ahsoka, you go ahead and cut giant holes in these ancient ruins. I can't get too mad at you because the droids bomb it a few minutes later, but at least look for the door first.
I'm okay with Sabine surviving getting stabbed, but annoyed that the injury is inconsequential. She isn't even uncomfortable when in a hospitable bed. Guess they gave her the good painkillers.
Marrok, there are people on Twitter who still think you're Barriss. I am begging you to fucking say something. Anything. Please, Marrok.

Happy holidays / merry Christmas to everyone! :)
Here's another preview of Rising Star as a gift to you all ;)
------------------------
“Here. I thought you might like something to read, and, well...” Marrok cleared his throat and set the thick book down on the table. "Given everything that's happened, I thought it... appropriate."
He patted the book with far more fondness than Eridan would have expected anyone to show to a book. “I also thought you might appreciate, well, a bit more knowledge about what you've... gotten yourself into, throwing your lot in with us,” he added with a faint smile.
“Quick dancin' around the subject, Mar,” Eridan replied with a tinge of irritation. “What is it?” The plain leather cover gave no clue to the contents; the book was clearly handmade, and he couldn't even begin to guess what it was or why...
At least, until Marrok answered his question.
“This is... the Disciple's Book,” the blueblood said quietly, in reverent tones.
Eridan's eyes widened. “The Book?” he asked, his voice just as hushed. Somehow it felt wrong, to speak loudly in the presence of something so... epochal.
“Well, a copy of it. A translation, really; I'm told the language of the original is ancient enough that it's nearly impossible to read now,” Marrok explained. “This copy was created by my mentor; it's one of only eight that I know of in... circulation, I suppose you could say. All the other - mostly older - translations I know of have remained within particular groups devoted to the Book.”
“And you're... you're letting me read it?” Eridan gripped the arm of his wheelchair tightly with mixed excitement and nerves. He'd heard of the Book, of its importance, but he'd never expected to be able to read it... and he desperately, desperately wanted to: to learn about the Signless whose vision Karkat followed, from the very words of his closest compatriot, handed down through the centuries.
Marrok smiled and removed his hand from the Book. “It was written to be read, Eridan. It was meant to be shared. Besides, it's hardly fragile; this isn't an ancient copy, it was only created a decade or so ago.”
“Still!” Eridan looked over his shoulder at Sollux, who obliged his silent request by pushing him forwards to the table. “It's, this is... fuck, Mar, I never expected...”
Marrok patted him on the shoulder. “Well, I imagine you didn't realize we had a copy, either,” he said with good-natured humor. “Now go on - there's nothing I need this for any time soon, so take as much time as you need with it. And do let me know if you have any questions, all right?”
Eridan nodded absently and reached out to pull the Book closer to himself, where he could at least somewhat read the text. Lying flat on the table, it was a little too high compared to his seat in his wheelchair for him to comfortably read - and with his left arm still in its cast, he only had one arm to work with - but he'd manage somehow.
Marrok hummed a little as he noticed the difficulty Eridan was having. “Let me see if I can't make something to help with angling it,” he said; Eridan managed a distracted nod for him, but his attention was already fully involved with the Book.
The first two pages were blank; Eridan flipped past them, wondering idly why, but it didn't seem important enough to ask - and besides which, a quick glance out of the corner of his eye showed Marrok was already gone.
He'd just gotten to the first page of (handwritten!) text, when Sollux cleared his throat.
“Do you need me for anything else, ED?” the psionic asked, gently running a hand across Eridan's shoulders in an affectionate gesture.
“Huh- oh. Um, no, I should be okay here,” Eridan replied, tearing his eyes briefly away to smile up at his matesprit. “Don't think I'll get tired of this any time soon.”
“All right.” Sollux bent over, almost in half, in order press a kiss to the violetblood's forehead. “Troll me if you need me, okay? I've got my chatpad.”
Eridan nodded absently, eyes already locked back on the Book and beginning to read the first words even as Sollux slipped out and gently shut the door behind him.
