Okay, so I know there are plenty of 'tf2 mercs as [insert animal]' but I would also like to do this, so I, because I'm a sort-of nerd, I would like to do it as a crossover. I present:

What Star Wars creature would each Merc be?

Scout - Twi'lek/Clawdite Hybrid

He will tell you that he is a full Twi'lek, like his older brothers. His lekku are definitely as long as his full-blooded Twi'lek family, and his skin doesn't completely change its colour depending on his emotions. His dad was Twi'lek and couldn't have been anything else. (everyone believed that.)

Soldier - Besalisk

(Four-armed sentient, think Dexter Jettster or Pong Krell. Actually, don't think Pong Krell. Fuck Pong Krell.)He's thrill-seeking and has very little fear of death. Will leak secret intelligence if just lightly asked. Will engage in violent mating rituals, but then will stick with them for life. Also, think of how much more bread he could teleport with 4 arms. He could hold a shovel and a rocket launcher at the same time!

Pyro - Tusken Raider

How did a Sand Person get off Tatooine? Where is their tribe? What are they doing as a mercenary? What is under their mask? All good question, with zero answers. Pyro just is. Why does the Tusken Raider have a large flamethrower? Unclear! Can we take said flamethrower off them? Not while keeping all your limbs intact!

Demo - Togruta

I... I don't know why. He just seems like a Togruta kind of fellow. He needs lekku of some kind, and Togrutas also get to be carnivorous. I can see Demo being carnivorous. Maybe he's even missing one of his lek/montrals. Or, he makes up for his missing eye with the echolocation that his montrals bring

Heavy - Wookiee

Big, strong, loyal but known to rip off arms when provoked. Follow a warrior's code of honour. When angered (say, if you murder their Medic in cold blood) will fly into a berserker rage. Great for cuddling. Is there much else to say? Heavy is a Wookiee to a T.

Engineer - Lannik

(think a dwarf with ears bigger than an elf. Or, if you know him, Even Piell) Strong-willed, smart and great at battle strategy. Also, Lanniks are good with technology! Plus, Engineer is SHORT

Medic - Zabrak

(same species as Darth Maul and Savage Opress, though I don't believe he'd be Dathomiri. More likely from a Core World) Self-assured to the point of arrogance, striving to be the best, even to the point of playing god. A terrifying man, but you'd be glad to have him on your side.

Sniper - Kiffar

(Same thing that Quinlan Vos is) Idk but I really vibe with this. I mean, Sniper's a hunter, so it would make sense that he's good at tracking. And also, Sniper with traditional Clan tattoos??? Yes???

Spy - Clawdite

(a shapeshifting sentient species. Like that one bounty hunter from Attack of the Clones. I apologise for ) I mean. A species that can change their appearance at will? Come on. Who else could it be?

Idk I really just went with the vibes. I'm sure if I dug deeper into the pits of Wookieepedia I could have found some more obscure or better-fitting species, but I also don't want to make them just random things for the sake of being a nerd and forcing people to look just as deep as I did to make any sense of what I'm saying. I just thought this was neat. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

accidentally got invested in final space last week. my favorites are the wunderkind kitty cat and the space war-criminal his dad! 💙🧡

#i have repeatedly forgotten to watch the show since the pilot debuted BUT the graphic novel news finally got me to do it #my verdict is that it is VERY hit or miss but it mostly hits. it's pretty cute #final space #avocato #little cato #hysterical to do the ''violent merc with a dark past'' shtick and then name the guy avocado. by the way. genius.#oh also when i say ''favorites'' i doooo mean ''basically the only ones i cared about by the end''#but i meeean. like it's myyy fault they did a solid father son dynamic and then threw in some VERY unexpected curveballs. i had no choice.

Can't believe I forgot to post these guys!

Pair of Muppet Space Mercs.

Double Wizard! Twice as useful as one wizard, but half as powerful as two wizards, and his buddy Dave.

FINISHED!!!!!!!!! Another light mech for the mercs, as well as a trio of strikers. If I ever get to play in a battletech campaign, the strikers are a key component of how I'd wanna aim for garrison jobs. Have some mechs for if trouble actually happens, and some cheap light vehicles and infantry to actually walk around and secure a place without breaking the bank. Originally I was looking at some light tanks with autocannons, but then I read what the obsolete special rule actually means and my mercs were not gonna go bankrupt toting around museum pieces

#not warhammer #battletech #painting log #finished units #Maxine's Marines #someday after i have an accounting job im gonna go back and redo the space taxes for these mercs #they definitely couldnt run all the mechs ive painted in their colors #it was originally a heavy lance and a light-ish lance plus vehicles and infantry #i think id go more medium instead of light if i redid it #mostly cause i really like crabs #i did not realize how nicely their logistics work out #gotta keep the heavies tho #i love the heavies~

Soldier would absolutely think he's Mandalorian. He goes around wearing a helmet that he made himself. It's not quite the right design, and everyone can tell that's durasteel not beskar. His clan signet is spray-painted on. He wears barely any armour (he's confused Mandalorian culture so far that he says 'a real Mandalorian wouldn't even need armour' because they'd simply just not get shot. A real Mandalorian would have killed the other guy first. Somehow, this manages to please both the pacifists and the traditionalists in Mandalorian society.) He knows 5 words in Mando'a and he finds a way to insert them into any conversation.

Literally any Mandalorian that sees him is like '?????' but most just shrug and give him an A- for effort, or just roll their eyes and move on with their day. Everyone knows that he's not Mandalorian. His teammates are happy to pretend.

Zhanna is ecstatic when she finds him, though, because she will have a great warrior of a husband, and a challenge in single combat. That is one thing that Soldier has down. He is definitely on par with the best Mandalorian verde, at least when it comes to violence.

Because I’ve been feeling brave lately (maybe TOO brave time will tell) I’m gonna ask an earnest question like I am truly curious where this comes from…does anyone understand the frequent jackie body shames shauna trope in yj fic? I am not coming for anyone okay I just can’t figure it out for the life of me, like I am 99.99% certain the only time we see jackie discuss shauna’s body is with boob dress and that’s like…her wanting shauna to show more skin. And then she backs down immediately when shauna gets upset. It’s very much an indicator that she loves her body to me. So I can absolutely see where a hyperawareness or her body around jackie just based on like her Body Being Perceived exists!! Or shauna wondering if jackie was judging her in a negative way in the other clothes or whatever!! I just…body shaming is such a really very cruel thing and I’m very confused by where the explicit and extreme verbal body shaming thing comes from, like is there a moment where people infer it cause I’m at such a LOSS on this one. Like obviously characterization is largely based on how you read a text I fully get that!! And that’s okay!! All of this is creative prerogative!! I’m just constantly confused by how frequently people write jackie just tearing into shauna’s body because it’s so specific and so next level mean.

#asking this might be a mistake! but apparently I’m in the mood to take the risk of questioning things on the internet lately!#something is in the air (it’s the sun in taurus and the merc retrograde in taurus)#but just…it makes me SO sad every time I see it like I have to close out the fic and everyone can write what they want! just!#I’m so curious where it came from and why it became prevelant! it is so very specific y’know?#am I a known Jackie Is Not A Mean Girl advocate from far too many hours of obsessive analysis?? yeah guilty!#but live and let live y’know usually I shrug at it and move on and it vacates my brain space #but the body shaming WOOF! I need the origin story my brain is stuck on it baby! what’s the etiology of the phenomenon y’know?#braving myself for the anons like I’m going into battle. but like. I am curious I do wanna hear the logic #yellowjackets fic #jackie taylor #shauna shipman #jackie x shauna #yellowjackets

These ti-tellyl* from the blue irrin* Neb's been talking about a lot sure sound interesting! 🌎🤩✨

(*Ti-tellyl: Starish word meaning "little flicker". Typically refers to space stations, satellites, and rocket ships as they "flicker" from star and nibuli POVs, but can be used as a catchall word to describe life on certain habitable planets.)

(*Irrin: Starish word meaning "follower". Refers to planets.)

Is the bullet journaling going well?

Nonnnnyyyyyy

Yes, the journaling is going well. My book is getting BULK, which is funny most of the time. I went with a dark celestial spacey theme which is really fun. I got some stickers and some vintage scraps to really add to the vibe.

I forgot about some of the single sheets of paper I bought for the theme so I'll have to bring those out of storage. But the washi tape is so nice that I can't just stare at it.

I also received a gift of some washi tape and some stickers for an under the sea theme so I'm gonna include that pretty soon. I'm also thinking of making a poll for a few of the months or taking requests to make a theme out of, it would be fun.

Thank you for asking about it, I guess I forgor to update!

#anon love #anon asks #bullet journal #space theme #celestial theme #my art i suppose #im not sure if i can tag as my art?#if i can then cool #not fallout #merc be craftin

"SHIVERS - Far to the southeast, two men and a woman dress themselves in ceramic armour. A shortwave radio hisses on the windowsill. One makes a salute. The other downs a drink. Weapons under the bed..."

"ESPRIT DE CORPS - Two men and a woman stand on the beach, under a row of houses long abandoned to war damage. The words "Feld Electrical" have peeled off the turn-of-the-century waterfront development. One of the men carries a small boy on his shoulders. The boy looks up at the faded logo."

🤨

#de tag #just think this is an interesting parallel between the 3 mercs and jean+judit+trant. the 2 tribunals.#also extremely funny to me that mikael takes up the same grammatical space as the guns under the bed.#*vine voice* what's worse than an automatic rifle? a child.

it doesn’t matter how long it’s been, or what year it is. each time i see 5sos in concert, i am their biggest fan.

#mercury speaks #they played wrapped around your finger #if u are a long time 5sos fan u know how big of a deal that is #and they closed with outer space #the merc from 2016 can die happy
