#Maia the not-Jedi

[the-mandawhor1an]

Where did Maia get her first lightsaber from? Will we find out?

Woop woop, the first Maia Monday and we run right into (possibly) the biggest plot hole in existence.

To give the short answer: We don't know, and we'll probably never know (because keeping lore in mind, the original plan of how she stumbled upon them doesn't make sense)

Okay, let's talk about lightsabers for a minute.

I have to make a clear distinction here between the "original" Maia, whom I will refer to as "Maia Prime" from now on, and the Roleplay Maia, aka the one whose story I'm writing here on Tumblr.

Why do I have to make that distinction? Two reasons:

Maia Prime's sabers have an origin story, whereas Tumblr Maia's don't (yet?)

Maia Prime's sabers are different, both in materials and blade color

I'll start with Tumblr Maia:

Her saber is a split saber, which means it is two sabers (of equal length) that can be combined into a saberstaff (a double-bladed saber)

Think Cal Kestis:

Maia has so far only used one of the sabers while fighting (*cough* up until Chapter 10). The blades are lavender-colored, so ironically a little similar to the ones in the GIF, just a little more blue-tinted. This, in return, makes the blades look white-ish in yellow envorinments (like on Tatooine)

The metal is dark, kind of anthracite. Perhaps the dark-grey tint of Din's armor.

How she got it, we don't know so far. In fact, Din in the RP never asked so I didn't have to think about it. (Zaddy istg if Din asks her now I will bite your ass)

Now we talk about Maia Prime

The biggest difference is the blade color, it is also a split saber. Maia Prime's blades are ultramarine, a dark, rich in-between color or blue and purple, or lorvingly called

Why did I change the color to lavender? Well. I knew some day I would cosplay her and this intense dark blue will look TERRIBLE in pictures

See what the saber does to Ani's face? Yeah, a darker blurple blade would make the situation even worse (tbh I love that they used LED-lit sabers in the Obi-Wan Series but the blue sheen on the faces was a little distracting)

Also, the metal.

Maia Prime has saber hilts made of Beskar.

Does it make sense? Fuck no. Was it cool and a little self-indulging? Fuck yeah.

Maia Prime got these sabers as a parting gift from Raymond. He left them with the contact that would bring her away from the facility. It's her most prized posession and also holds sentimental value.

Why does it not make sense?

Where did Raymond get Beskar from? Where did he get kyber crystals from?

Looking a little further into the lore behind how a Jedi chooses their saber crystal, that's where things get a little tricky. The Jedi doesn't really choose their crystal. The crystal chooses the person (which is why the Darksaber is a little Diva, btw)

That's why it doesn't make sense why Raymond could just give his daughter sabers willy-nilly. Even if we forget that the resources are hard to get by, the chance of stumbling onto the right crystals is sheer impossible.

Now, as the Darksaber also 'allows' more than one wielder, the crystals could get used to Maia.

Mostly the availability of those resources is what made me scrap the idea of Raymond gifting the sabers to her. Combine that with Din and any member of the covenant freaking out about Beskar forged into a weapon. I also thought about making Raymond an undercover ex-Jedi, but then again... why would I?

Well, that concludes the first episode of Maia Monday, aka "Wolke yaps about Maia for too long"

Thank you very much for the question! 💜

✩ WEEKLY FIC ROUND-UP ✩

All the fics I’ve read and really enjoyed in the past week-ish. Reminder: This list features any and all ratings and themes. Please look at tags and warnings on ao3 before reading.

Marvel

Held Together by Spiderwebs by TunaFishChris (+ podfic)

Steve is not coping well in the twenty-first century. At all. Three months after the Chitauri invasion, he decides he's had enough.

But just as he's about to end it all, he runs into the new hero in town.

Ted Lasso

Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered by mardia

Ted Lasso: Schrodinger's Witch.

Or, the one where AFC Richmond are leading the Premier League table, and Trent Crimm and the rest of the British press are slowly losing their minds as a result.

what comes in threes by emelinelou

“It’ll take two seconds,” Higgins says. “I like to keep up to date with all the players, you know. I just thought, well, you moved recently. And your emergency contact.”

He pauses here, and Jamie raises an eyebrow. His emergency contact? He’d probably filled out some joke response last time, hadn’t he. Fucking Queen of England, Boris Johnson’s wife, something good.

“Oi, let’s see it then,” and Higgins passes over the paper like it’s a live bomb, and Jamie scans down to where he sees his own handwriting sitting over a few dotted lines, and, well. It sure ain’t the Queen.

or: Jamie goes through a series of unfortunate events, changes his emergency contact a few times, and considers the possibility that maybe, actually, letting other people help isn’t all bad after all.

Clone Wars

Take a Knee by lilbuddyBD (Note: Read the warnings on all the fics in this series before starting it, because holy shit)

Part 1 of Broken Pieces (Shine)

There is a Jedi on Kamino. Jango can't just let him leave, now can he?

The Goblin Emperor

Drinks With Friends by searchingforserendipity

The emperor of the Ethuveraz and his nohecharei walk into a bar -

Well. Beshelar limped, mostly. Cala supported him, an operation made somewhat more difficult with how they insisted in keeping Maia safely between them.

Fan Fiction Recommendations

I figured I’d take the time to put down some of my favorite fan fictions for anyone who wants them. I am only putting up completed series, with a few exceptions. And I’ll add more as I think about it. Make sure to give the authors lots of love! They deserve it!

Also, let me know if any links do not work.

Yours

By @wanderinginksplot

Rating: Teen and Mature Reader was assigned to Kamino to do some administrative work for the senate, and when her presence draws some of the clones to try their inexperienced flirting with her Alpha volunteers to scare them away. This story single-handedly turned my attention towards Alpha works. It is a slow burn filled with great banter and I really enjoy Alpha’s characterization here.

➤ Alpha-17/Female Reader

Alpha & “Doc”

By @wings-and-beskar

Rating: Explicit Reader attempts to have a peaceful shower but has to deal with Alpha-17’s presence and persistence to be around her. Absolutely sexy series that I hope gets more fics added to it! Just Alpha’s begging alone in the second story had me faint.

WTA Hunger Games Simulator

We've already had one hunger games, yes, but what about a second hunger games? You heard that right folks, instead of doing my uni work, i've made the executive decision to put the WTA top 24 in Situations. The aforementioned Situations being survival of the fittest in a death trap of an arena. So almost like playing on Rod Laver Arena in the 40 degrees Australian Summer before the retractable roof. So, ladies and gentlemen and other, I present to you your cast:

And away we go!

Day 1

And already, the action is actioning folks. While most people have their flight instinct switched on in a fight or flight situation, Anna Kalinskaya isn't most people. Still not over the Dubai final, she mortally injures Jasmine Paolini, leaving her to die. Ons Jabeur is also killed at the hands of Daria Kasatkina. I guess the power of friendship didn't manage to save them. But wait, there's more. Donna Vekic ruthlessly mows down Carolina Garcia.

Qinwen Zheng, a master Jedi, knows that the only way to victory is through the high ground. Anna Kalinskaya continues her reign of terror, taking out Barbora Krejcikova and Daria Kasatkina with Danielle Collins. Both Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff already are questioning their sanities, which, mood. Victoria Azarenka, practising archery, may be a threat later on, someone should keep an eye on her. Emma Navarro also gets her first superfan. But by far, the biggest development is Aryna Sabalenka, 3rd seed, has been taken out..... by herself! Yes, she tried to poison Marketa Vondrousova's drink but mistook it for her own. Inconceivable! 6 cannon shots can be heard in the distance. Rip Jasmine Paolini, Ons Jabeur, Caroline Garcia, Barbora Krejcikova, Daria Kasatkina, Aryna Sabalenka.

Night 1

In a great showing of American-Canadian solidarity, Leylah Fernandez and Coco Gauff shelter together. Even though it's night, the action doesn't stop, as Bia Haddad Maia kills Madison Keys, who had been minding her own business till now. Jessica Pegula also doesn't die at the hands of Victoria, who keeps Jessie alive. Anna's reign of terror ends as she and Marta Kostyuk pull a Romeo and Juliet. Sort of. I mean, the both die in the end so it's basically the same. And Donna Vekic is proving to be a cold-hearted killer, strangling Danielle Collins with a rope. Both Barbora and Daria's killers have been killed tonight.

Day 2

Donna Vekic has an injury. But what else is new. Maria Sakkari also sprains her ankle. However, the no. 2 seed, Coco Gauff has also gone out with a bang, with it taking 3 people to kill her. Interestingly, Jess and Victoria, having gone from one keeping the other alive despite begging to be killed to working together. Dream team? And speaking of dream teams, Jelena Ostapenko and Elena Rybakina have put aside their differences and are on the prowl. Everyone watch out! 5 cannon shots can be heard for Madison Keys, Marta Kostyuk, Anna Kalinskaya, Danielle Collins, Coco Gauff.

Night 2

Lots of action tonight, as Victoria and Jess and Leylah are killed by Bia, Liudmila Samsonova and Emma. Dream team over smh. And while we're at it, whilst they worked together during the day, unfortunately, Elena and Jelena couldn't go on like this, with Elena begging for death and Jelena killing her. It was either gonna be this or taken out by her immune system. Rip Rybapenko, you were bigger than the whole sky.

Day 3

And it's time for the feast!

And the no. 1 seed and defending Roland Garros champion, Iga Swiatek is out alongside Marketa Vondrousova! It's just grand slam champion thing, you wouldn't get it. Liudmila has also died, this time due to untreated injuries. And this is why knowing first aid is important kids.

Donna Vekic, in a showing of mercy, spares Emma Navarro's life after beating her, even though Emma is the reason she sprained her ankle the previous day. She's turning into a formidable person to meet in the arena. Could she win it all? More action as Maria Sakkari has also suffered a devastatinig loss to berry bush. Can't a girl just live her life? And it's the most death we've had, with a whopping 7 cannon shots being fired for Victoria Azarenka, Jessica Pegula, Leylah Fernandez, Elena Rybakina, Liudmila Samsonova, Iga Swiatek and Marketa Vondrousova. I can't believe it's only the third day.

Night 3

After sparing her life during the day, Donna convinces Emma to snuggle. Love truly wins. Someone should've cuddled with Maria as well. And Jelena Ostapenko has been given explosives, a terrifying thought for everyone.

Day 4

It's only Day 4 and we've had another double suicide. Yes, Qinwen Zheng and Jelena Ostapenko both die, another tragedy, like uhh Antony and Cleopatra. And in a dramatic twist, after sparing her life and even cuddling together, Emma Navarro has forced Donna Vekic's hand: making her choose to kill either Bia or Maria. Maria has become the victim of this couple's spat. 3 cannon shots can be heard in the distance for Qinwen Zheng, Jelena Ostapenko and Maria Sakkari.

So now, we're down to just 3 tributes. All three underdogs who all have an equal chance at snatching victory. So who's left? Will Emma "daddy's money" Navarro prove to the world that she's the no.1 american nepo baby? Will it be Donna "Last Call" Vekic who will make a timely appearance on the top step? Or will Beatriz Haddad Maia bee the one to lift the trophy? We will find out after the break.

[INSERT AD HERE]

And we're back!

Night 4

Emma has been awoken by nightmares, which could be related to her partner (in crime), Donna, dying while trying to one up the system. A truly Hamlet and Horatio move. Bia just vibing though, starting a fire and roasting s'mores. We're down to Emma and Bia, battle of the North vs South America.

Day 5

Oh my god that was brutal. Emma, channeling her inner Donna Vekic, mercilessly mows down Bia. Honestly, i'm at a loss for words that was remorseless. 2 cannon shots can be heard for Donna Vekic and Beatriz Haddad Maia.

Congrats queen on your second ever totally legit title that definitely counts. Now go out there and slay in real life

[maiaspen]

Hey “Oblivion Gin” readers!

I swear to the Force that I am working hard on the finale for you! 💚 My writing confidence took a bit of a hit last month. I am human. I go through feels, sometimes inconvenient ones.

Thank you to all of my readers for continuing to support and encourage me. I’m hoping to have the story finished this month. 💪

Here’s another little teaser for you. The scene picking up where my last teaser left off. Here

I also have glorious supporting art by @kana7o to treat your eyes 😏

Please remember that this is a very rough draft, what ultimately makes it onto ao3 will be heavily scrutinized 🧐 these are just the raw words as they pour out of me. 

Thank you all for your support! I can’t wait to share the full finale with you 💚💚💚

xo Maia

💚🍆💚🍆💚🍆💚🍆💚🍆💚🍆💚🍆💚🍆💚

Chapter 9 excerpt…

Anakin doubles his already quite doubled efforts to hustle, weaving pedestrians and commuters on citibikes and landspeeders. He’s aware that his surroundings are Coruscant-rush-hour-level-of-loud, and that it’s daylight; but only because Orea Dea’s singular sun has teamed-up with the Force to highlight his Jedi targets.

Entering the crowded spaceport, Anakin decelerates to a sneaky jog. The Force insists that he assess the situation before drawing his lightsaber and trimming Fisto’s tentacles (and testicles).

The pair of Masters are standing – huddled shoulder-to-shoulder– next to a cargo freighter that looks like it’s being prepped for take-off.

To Anakin’s tremendous relief, Obi-Wan’s posture is strong. He’s handsome as ever, fair head and facial-hair have been groomed to perfection. He’s dressed in his boots and tunic, which the medical staff was kind enough to launder. All of the sweaty-oily-mulchy- bloody souvenirs from their crab droid and ass face battle royales have been cleared away. Obi-Wan looks the epitome of a proper Jedi Master. But Fisto . . .

The droid wasn’t exaggerating.

Anakin gasps as bewilderment sweeps like a blizzard through his mind, whiting-out thoughts of all else but what Fisto is wearing. Or rather– not wearing.

(Thank you @kana7o for this Fisto sketch💚)

The Nautolan is clad in a darkened leather toga – a toga that looks like it’s been sized for Master Yoda. The skirt portion brushes his thick thighs, barely concealing his dignity. If there is a gust of wind – or if Fisto even raises his arms to stretch – everyone in this spaceport will see his cock and balls! Unless he’s wearing underwear, which Anakin strongly doubts. And the green bastard is wearing the toga like he’s doing it a favor. His muscles are bursting out of the garment. Those chiseled biceps and pecs belong on a Holomovie screen (probably a porno), not a public spaceport. There are younglings milling about!

Has the Nautolan been working-out obsessively the whole time they’ve been hospitalized? Gaining muscle and losing modesty?! Even from eight meters away Anakin can count his eight abdominals.

The ‘outfit’ includes knee-high strappy sandals, which accentuate his strong calves, and even– is that a collar? And, yes, Fisto is wearing a collar. A leather one with a metalloid loop. It’s like he’s begging to be latched by some kinky leash.

Master Kit Fisto is hotter than fire. He’s center-of-a-sun, liquid magma hot. How his toga hasn’t burst into flames, Anakin does not know. And, right now, Obi-Wan is reaching upward . . . laying a hand on that bulging bicep and squeezing—

“MASTER!” Anakin screams as though Obi-Wan is touching liquid magma! With a mighty Force-leap he closes the distance, landing before the Masters and snatching Obi-Wan’s hand. Anakin holds his Master’s hand to his chest like he’s saved it from a brutal roasting.

Obi-Wan makes a face like Anakin has pissed in his morning tea.

So, Anakin counters: pushing his bottom lip out, going for the most adorable pout he can muster. The kind of expression that always softened his mother’s irritation when he was late for their evening meal. To Anakin’s surprise, Obi-Wan actually blushes. Really blushes. Anakin is certain his rouge can be seen from outer space. Did touching Fisto actually burn him?

Suddenly, Anakin can feel his Master’s Force signature again – vibrating and sizzling like it’s super-heating. But Master Kenobi quickly regains control of his dermal blood vessels and his shielding, retaining the aurora of one who is cool and centered.

“I’ll take this back, thank you,” Obi-Wan says as he pulls his hand from Anakin’s grasp. He then offers a small but earnest smile, adding: “It’s good to see you up and about again, Anakin.”

“Thank you, Master. I can say the same to you–” Anakin starts, intending to ask what-in-all-the-hells is going on, when Fisto clears his throat.

The Nautolan grins broadly, teeth glinting like pearls under the sunlight. Anakin orders himself to keep looking at Fisto’s teeth. Not lower, not lower. “It is indeed good to see you both up and about,” Fisto declares. “I spoke with Master Windu this morning. The Council is sending a team to sluth-out what happened to the senator’s shuttle. They will arrive tomorrow, at which time you two are to take their transport back to Coruscant. I’m afraid our little shuttle is officially out-of-commission.”

Anakin processes Fisto’s words out loud. “So. Master Fisto, you won’t be . . .” he pauses. Pushing the obnoxious optimism from his voice is like trying to shove against a stubborn bantha. “ . . . you won’t be joining us on our voyage to Coruscant?”

Fisto smirks as though he is a stubborn bantha. “No.”

Anakin’s signature surges like a double nova! He barely resists cartwheeling all over the spaceport! He and Obi-Wan will be traveling back to Coruscant together and alone.

And are they spending the night here alone, too? Or is Fisto in his ‘little slut get-up’ going to be the third wheel?

“What’s with the, um,” Anakin waves his hands vaguely about Fisto’s ensemble. “The whole . . . whore look? And where did you get that outfit anyway? Are you going somewhere dressed like that?”

Obi-Wan cringes at Anakin’s words, but Fisto’s already broad smile only widens. “I’m being deployed. Immediately,” Fisto points to the nearby cargo freighter. “It’s an undercover mission. I’m being smuggled to Nal Hutta as a pleasure slave. I’m to be sold upon landing to my . . . target. I cannot divulge any further details, you understand. And, Skywalker, the Council has wardrobe sources on nearly every Republic planet,” Fisto says as though Anakin should know that. Which he does, he just didn’t know that the Republic’s sources kept skimpy togas on hand.

The weight of Fisto’s words take a moment to sink into Anakin’s brain, but when they do . . .

Anakin shakes his head, wanting the weight to be gone. “Hold on, the Council is sending you alone?”

Fisto nods. “They are.”

“Kit is quite capable of handling himself,” Obi-Wan interjects carefully, sensing Anakin’s . . . what? His concern? No. No way. He’s not concerned for Fisto safety. He’s fucking thrilled that Fisto is going away. Far, far away.

Anakin scoffs, though the sound comes out as more nervous than he’d intended. “Yeah, of course. I mean, obviously. But . . . is the mission dangerous? Are you going to have to perform sex duties and–?”

“Anakin. Kit cannot share any further details with us,” Obi-Wan scold-reminds, though Anakin can now sense that his Master is concerned. Obi-Wan turns his attention back upon Fisto, and smiles with warm reassurance. “I am glad for this opportunity to see you off, Kit.”

“Me too,” Anakin says, then turns an accusatory glare upon his Master. “Though, how come neither of you were planning to include me? I couldn’t sense you, Master. And if I hadn’t returned to your sickbed when I did, and interrogated that awful droid, then I may not have even found you on time.”

Obi-Wan lowers his voice as though trying to sooth a hostile assailant: “I needed to have a private word with Kit–”

Anakin intercepts his Master’s defense. “A private word, huh? Is that the only private thing you needed to have?”

Obi-Wan’s eyes narrow fractionally, but his smile doesn’t falter. “Besides, Anakin, the medical droid reported that you were occupied.”

Uninterested in Obi-Wan’s paltry excuses, Anakin turns his accusatory glare upon the scantily-clad Nautolan. “And you! Couldn’t you have changed into that on the freighter instead of schutta-strutting around this port?!”

Amusement flickers over Fisto’s signature and within his eyes. “The droid crew has been programmed to thoroughly shackle me upon boarding. While I am an apt-multitasker, I’m afraid that I cannot undress and redress with my arms, legs and neck bound.” Fisto looks to the cargo freighter, which is flashing its ‘five-minutes-to-launch’ warning. He reaches behind himself, and Anakin only now notices that Fisto is wearing a leather satchel. He rummages within the satchel until he finds something that makes his signature ping with delight.

“Ah, here,” Fisto pulls out the half-empty bottle of Oblivion Gin. “The Council has granted you both the evening free. You have orders to relax, and I am ordering you to . . . indulge,” his grin thins into a cheeky smirk. “Enjoy.” Fisto hands Obi-Wan the bottle. Obi-Wan accepts the gin as though Fisto is giving him a writhing whip-snake.

“Oh, oh . . . really, I cannot accept. This is far too . . . generous,” Obi-Wan almost sounds flustered.

“I insist,” Fisto pushes the bottle at Obi-Wan with oomph, and he begrudgingly accepts. “A shot or two will do you good, my friend. And you,” Fisto’s dark eyes find Anakin’s, flaring with equal parts challenge and warning. “You may need three or four shots.”

“ALL ABOARD!” A mechanical voice blears loudly from the cargo freighter. “WE WILL DEPART IN TWO MINUTES.”

Anakin opens his mouth to say something . . . say thank you? Say goodbye? Say good luck? But it’s suddenly like all of this planet’s air has been sucked away into space, and no words come out.

Anakin feels Fisto’s large, cool hand on his right shoulder, offering a brief squeeze of reassurance. Then he watches as Fisto grants Obi-Wan the same gesture, which Obi-Wan returns.

“My comrades,” Fisto says those two words in a way that makes Anakin’s heart-clench, though he doesn’t know why. “Our physical bodies do not have forever,” Fisto’s gaze sweeps from Obi-Wan’s to Anakin’s and back again. Under the brilliant sunlight Fisto’s blacker-than-black eyes are not black at all. They are a warm honeyed-gold, flecked with blue from the sky. “Time is short, and most of ours is filled with brutality and turmoil . . .” he flashes those too-perfect teeth. Again. “So, go on then, fill as much time as you can with happiness.”

“ALL ABOARD! WE WILL DEPART IN ONE MINUTE.”

“May the Force be with you,” Fisto bids them, then turns on his sandaled heels, tentacles bouncing, and sprints for the freighter.

As Fisto rushes away his toga skirt flares upward and –

By the Force.

Fisto is definitely not wearing any underwear. And his bare ass . . . well, it looks just as holoporn-worthy as the rest of him. The Nautolan probably possesses the two most flawlessly firm green globes in the galaxy. And, really, Anakin expected nothing less.

Several nearby senients squeal in horny delight – like they’ve been flashed by some celebrity heartthrob. An older female Rodian swoons and sways on her feet like she’s about to faint. Fortunately her traveling companion steadies her, though his jaw has nearly dropped to the walkway.

Anakin is surprised to hear himself laughing, and, damn, it actually sounds and feels . . . good. “May the Force be with you, too, Master!” Anakin calls after Fisto, straining his voice over the whirring engine and roaring thrusters.

“May the Force be with you,” Obi-Wan barely whispers. Anakin doubts Fisto even heard him, though he’s certain that the Nautolan feels the sentiment.

Anakin and Obi-Wan watch as Fisto’s tentacles disappear up the closing loading ramp. Within three heartbeats the freighter launches into the bright sky, fading away toward the outer rim.

Anakin’s mirth fades along with the freighter. A new concern has wriggled into his brain. “Does Fisto even have his lightsaber? He can’t possibly be keeping it inside that satchel. The first thing the slavers will do is search his belongings.”

Obi-Wan frowns thoughtfully. “He would not be storing it in the satchel, no.”

“Then where . . .”

My next update with be the final chapter! 🥲

[persimminwrites]

Min HEY! for the 👗 ask game, how about Calla and the start of the clone wars?

Or if that doesn't fit then, Peaches a year after order 66 🥰?

MAIA!!!!! thank you for asking MWUAH MWUAH i loved thinking about these i shall answer BOTH <3333

so i did an initial design of calla's jedi robes here and i do think that she would be wearing something close to this even initially at the onset of the battle of geonosis (since we see most of the jedi in their traditional robes during this battle in the movie)

without going into too much detail (because this will get so long lmao) - after geonosis, the 77th battalion forms. its an intelligence and espionage battalion and calla acts as a sort of "free agent" (along with rawl eventually) under the direction of cyrus her master! her first mission is a recon mission pretty shortly after geonosis and i would expect her usual clothes would start becoming a bit sleeker, less flowy and the color scheme would change depending on the environment or location she was in/needed to blend into. i would love to eventually draw some concepts of her clothing evolving over the course of the war!

and omg peaches!!!! love to think back on peaches. even though peaches isn't really a fully formed character to me i do have some thoughts!!! i think that a year after o66, sinker would be excellent at making clothes and boost would be a superstar at embroidery so i can imagine that all of their clothes would have more and more lovely embroidery and sinker would get the chance to improve his sewing skills and build up everyone's wardrobe. while on the farm i think overalls would absolutely be the way to go especially if peaches is still in charge of maintaining equipment!!!! (od1 is definitely still complaining about all of the laundry they have to do) i had a thought at some point in the past that it would be fun if they all got a set of bounty hunter armor and im STILL obsessed with these designs and i think if i had to pick a design for peaches it would be the 10th image <3

tHANK YOU AGAIN FOR ASKING SENDING KISSES AND LOVE AND HUGS MAIA MWUAH MWUAH

[rexxdjarin]

Potentially angsty! What about Mari during Umbara 👀? Too angsty?

Send me an episode/chapter/scene/ect. and I'll tell you what my OC was doing during it

Ahhhhh hi Maia my absolute beloved 🥺🥰🩷

So this is something I absolutely plan on covering in unwritten but..

But Mari is extremely, extremely worried about Rex during this specific campaign. She usually hears from him after a couple of days and this time she goes weeks without hearing from him. She is an absolute nervous wreck. She cries…a whole lot. She finds out from Padmé that Anakin had to leave and that they were left with a different jedi and that’s all she knows.

Until he comes home. In the middle of the night he comes in to her apartment. He’s numb and he’s silent. Like usual he never cries. That’s not his way. She hears the doors slide open and knows it could only be one person. She’s so relieved and excited to see him but when she runs out of her room into the hallway and sees the tattered armor and him standing their like a ghost of his former self she stops in her tracks. She knows something’s wrong. She knows.

She approaches with caution. She holds the side of his battle worn, dirty and blood stained cheeks, she tries to hold his gaze, to find the light in the his eyes. There’s nothing. He’s dark and cold and scared. He’s so scared and sad. His steps carried him here probably on adrenaline and gut instinct. She pulls him into a hug and keeps him there for a long time. He doesn’t move other than to wrap his arms around her to receive her.

He doesn’t speak. He’s so so tired. She walks him to her bed, he follows in silence. She tries to strip him of his armor and he stops her. He can’t bear to remove it. something happened. Something bad. She can tell. She lets him lay down on her bed and props his head up in her lap. She watches his eyes slowly and groggily hood closed. He falls asleep somehow.

And Mari stays up the entire night watching over him, knowing she needs to prevent whatever nightmare he’d just endured from revisiting him again in his dreams. She lets him rest in her lap.

He wakes up at day break. He still can’t talk. Cant explain it. She doesn’t ask him to. She brings him to the shower and bathes him, lets him hold her. He changes into casuals she keeps in her place for him. She feeds him gives him whatever he can handle which isn’t much.

And finally he tells her. As calmly as he can. Just so that she knows. She doesn’t ask questions. Just lets him explain. She knows there’s nothing she can do about it. She lets him be and lets him live and breathe. He sets the pace and lets her know what he can handle. It’s mostly just cuddling and napping.

He doesn’t leave until later that night and he tells her he’s grateful to have her and he can’t thank her enough for protecting him. With a final quiet I love you he leaves her there to head off on another mission. They are both changed and she cries for him behind closed doors and mourns for the men he lost because she knows society won’t.

She can’t take his pain away. She can’t make things better. But she can shoulder it. She can feel it too. That’s more than the rest of the galaxy is willing to take on for clones and that means more to Rex than he can ever describe. And it’s how he knows he is fully and truly in love with her.

It's wednesday my dudes

What do you mean it's wednesday again? (thanks @beefrobeefcal for tagging me and therefore kicking my ass to write 💜💜💜)

Well...

I've been a little busy in the last days, as some might have realized (who am I kidding here)

Yesterday was my rp anniversary and I'll be at Comic Con on saturday and still tweaking shit on my costume (yes you will get pics!) and the end of the month is approaching, which means chapter 9 is due

I'm doing my best to get it done by saturday. I'm at 8k words right now, two scenes are still missing. (Maybe I'm scratching one of the scenes for the sake of getting it done in time, we'll see)

It might end up being more than 10k of 'Din being an idiot in love and not realizing'. The yearning is there. Here's a little snippet:

»Can I ask you something?« he hesitantly asked. Now that he had the chance, he didn’t want it to go to waste. »You just did,« she smirked. »Go ahead.« »Is it true that Jedi have to live by strict rules?« He felt his heart rate pick up. Maia had mentioned a few things about why she didn’t want to be part of the order, had it still existed. »What rules are you referring to specifically?« He took a deep breath. »No attachments, neither possessions nor relationships are allowed. As a Mandalorian, I fail to see how loyalty to someone can be seen as bad.« 

Stay tuned! I'm working on it with all the energy and time I can spare QwQ

Worth mentioning here: Marcus A. isn't forgotten, I just want to put the long fic as my top priority.

Introducing My Queer OCs

Happy Pride Month! I wanted to do something special for Pride but I've been so caught up in assignments, essays and exams that I completely forgot to prepare anything. So instead, here's a little introduction to (some of) my queer OCs. 🏳️‍🌈

Connie Winter - Bisexual

Love interest: Bucky Barnes

Growing up in the 1920s/1930s meant that Connie never really questioned her sexuality. She knew she was attracted to men and that was all that mattered. Besides, every woman thinks other women are hot too, right? And everyone has at least a little crush on Peggy so it's not weird that she does too, right? It's not until she wakes up in 2012 and starts catching up on important social issues that she finally has the language to identify herself.

More about Connie here

Halley Castor - Pansexual

Love interest: Poe Dameron

Halley has always been quite open-minded and has had a number of relationships with aliens from different species. So of course, when it comes to humans, gender doesn't really matter to her.

More about Halley here

Imara Dhawan - Lesbian

Love interest: Natasha 'Phoenix' Trace

Imara knew she liked girls from a young age. When she was a teenager, she realised she had absolutely no interest in boys and she was worried about how her family would react. Her sisters were very accepting but it took her parents a while to come to terms with her sexuality. Even after they did, she still had to keep it a secret from her extended family who live in India. She’s quite a private person anyway so she doesn't really mind. She is also not out to anyone in the Navy. The first person she comes out to is Nikki, who assures her that the Dagger Squad are good people and they won't care. She still doesn't feel the need to properly come out. Instead, the Squad figure it out by themselves after she and Phoenix start dating.

More about Imara here

Kris Fletcher - Bisexual

Love interest: Deke Shaw

Out of all my fics with queer OCs, I would say Kris’ is the one where sexuality is discussed the most. It's an important part of who she is and, being a historian, she is very interested in queer history. Like Joey, she knows what it's like to feel othered even before she becomes an Inhuman. Her previous relationships also play a significant role in how her character develops and so are discussed often. In the year between S5 and S6, she really bonds with Piper as they often make jokes about being queer. Her sexuality is also important in S7 as the bigotry associated with different time periods rears its ugly head. This is especially relevant in 07x07 (the 80s episode) as it takes place at the same time as the AIDS crisis.

More about Kris here

Kore - Demisexual

Love interest: Druig

Kore has never been romantically interested in anyone; she is put on Earth with the other Eternals to do a job and that's it. Her focus is entirely on protecting humanity. That is until she forms a deep friendship with Druig which slowly turns into something more.

More about Kore here

Maia Callis - Demisexual

Love interest: Obi-Wan Kenobi

Maia is only 18 when the fic starts and, being so young, she doesn't feel ready for a serious romantic relationship. She previously had a ‘relationship’ with a childhood friend, Atlas, on Alura, but it wasn't really anything serious. She's too busy trying to figure out what she wants to do with her life to be bothered with romance. Then, once she joins the Jedi Order, she believes that romance is completely off the table for her. She is fine with this at first, dedicating her time to studying the Jedi way and teaching Anakin and Suria. It's only when the Clone Wars begin that she realises her feelings for Obi-Wan are not simply platonic.

More about Maia here

Mari Park - Bisexual

Love interests: Dick Grayson and Donna Troy

Mari’s relationship history is complicated. She dated Dick when they were teenagers and training to be Batman’s sidekicks together. They broke up shortly after starting college, then Mari and Donna started dating. But Mari broke up with Donna after she realised Donna still had feelings for Garth. After the Titans disband, Dick and Mari start dating again, only to break up around the time of Tony Zucco’s death. Dick leaves for Detroit without saying goodbye and Mari does vigilante work on her own for a while. Until she sees Robin on the news and goes to Detroit to investigate.

OC game

tagged by @crysdrawsthings THANK YOU you just made my evening with this omg !!! I have a LOT of bg OCs but these ones are the one with actual fleshed out stories:

under the cut because i wrote a lot as usual

Favorite OC | Dumbest (Affectionate) OC | OC I would be best friends with:

-> [Original Story] LUKAN. L U K A N. listen sorry, Aryn knows why, we talk abt him a lot. Luk, he's just the best, he's that dumb part of me that likes to tinker with everything and gets electrocuted because why checking if the power is still on when you can solder that component right away? he's a Prince in a fantasy world, but he has ADHD with the Hyper streak at 200%, he loves to make things but most of his inventions would end up blowing up at some point, he's totally clueless about some social situations, he is helplessly in love with Cyra but goes about it in the utterly wrong way and def has a kink in getting rejected / sassed away.

He's the type to get distracted mid-battle because Would you look at this great invention in the enemy's new catapult system!! while his poor soldiers are holding on for dear life trying to defend their Prince.

he's meme material but he's the very best and has his moments.

Newest OC:

-> [Tolkien] AMARËA !!!!! i love Amarëa she's my new Maia blorbo and I love her. Bit spoilerish but I think by now everyone interested in reading All The Fire Bright have read the Reveal so... She's Arien's daughter (andmairon's). Sung into being, and just about as annoying as a child of these two can be. Jk. she's a child. Children are of course delightful :) She however has the annoying tendency to revert to her spirit form - a ball of fire when upset. children amiright...Ossë is her favourite uncle but no one is surprised. She had a child crush on Finrod before the exile of the Noldor. I like irony as you can see. Thats a difficult conversation she will have with her dad later :)

Oldest OC:

-> [SWTOR] That would be Althia I think. She was my 1st Marauder with a terrible past (like most of my OCs ngl), young babey Jedi who got kidnapped by a Sith and raised in the academy on Korriban and ended up being the Emperor's Wrath (while still being light side because take that!)

Now I miss swtor...

Meanest OC

-> [Tolkien] I don't really have mean OCs as per say, just really sassy ones but maybe the rudest would be Aramírë, one of Aulë's Maiar. She's featured in PYL as one of the few Maiar joining Ossë in trying to bring Mairon back before he does something stupid (again). She's bold and confident and doesn't take shit from wannabe-emo-dark-lord sulking away on Númenor.

-> [SWTOR] edit: Actually my meanest OC would be Marha. She was my Jedi Knight. Jedi with a complicated relation with the Republic, was Fallen at some point, ends up as the Alliance Commander against Zakuul. Aurea's Twin sister although they grew up separately when Marha and her mother fled the invasion of their native planet by Zakuul. (Altathea - a planet of the largest community of Miraluka in this region of the galaxy.) Hates the Emperor with her whole being. Mostly a neutral Jedi, have seen too much war to be unaffected and doesn't hesitate to make the tough calls. Definitely has a cold demeanor but captivity + possession + forced leadership after second captivity by your first jailor's son will do that to you.

Softest OC:

-> [SWTOR] Aurea. my Miraluka babe, part of Zakuul's Force army and Thexan's betrothed (well before Arcann rudely nuks him) She's the softest, and goes through SO MUCH emotional horrors. She's gorgeous though and a skilled Force healer. Has an unbreakable tight bond with her Scion teammate, Elhaan. Might end up in an ot3 with him and Thexan at some point.

Most Aloof/Standoffish OC | Smartest OC:

-> [Original Story] Cyra. Lukan's L.I. My autistic child <3. About the smartest person in the room at all time. She loves books more than she loves people, hates wearing shoes and loud noises, emotions are ...complicated and there are so many of them to try to guess in others. She's of dragon kin and wears some recognisable features as such. Will bite you with poisonous fangs if you try to kiss her. Princess of The Old Times(tm), has a huge memory and will weaponise it against you. Cursed. Secretly lonely.

[baba-fett]

🌻! And I love your new profile pic 😍

send me a 🌻 and ill just tell you whatever the fuck i want

thanks maia!!

I really don't get a lot of the Jedi hate I see. Like were they perfect? no, but if you watch star wars and see them vs the sith and don't see the Jedi as the good guys you are MISSING THE POINT

[clonesimpextra]

Uncomfortably personal question for Amara 👀!!

Would she ever give thought to leaving the Jedi Order? If so, why?

I love this question, Maia, because I've thought about it A LOT.

One the things I played with when planning the current arc of ASP was Amara leaving the Order. I had an entire storyline that revolved around that leading up to Order 66. I still think it would make for an entertaining story.

But the more I wrote about Amara, especially with some of the one shots I did last year, I realised that it would take something HUGE for her to leave the Order; something more than just doubts and a small bit of fear. Like with Ahsoka, the Order is Amara's family and the clones have become an extension of that. So far, neither have done anything to make her even consider giving that up.

Of course, this isn't to say that could never happen. There are still about two years between now and Order 66. A lot happens that will likely test her resolve. We'll just have to see what she makes of it :)

[maiaspen]

I found you on twitter and I want to say you look to me like a nice and kind person, horniness aside 😉🍆

Would you mind to tell in which order I must read stars wars novels? I have an extra income and those books will be my Christmas present, to me for me

Gracias y felices fiestas!!

Hello, Anon!

😏 I strive to bring the horny in all things, haaaa! Thanks for the message.

I’m delighted that you reached out to ask about … STAR WARS BOOKS!

I am assuming that you are looking for books that spotlight Obi-Wan and Anakin (where the obikin is blatant between the lines 😉).

Here are some suggestions, and in the order I recommend reading them. All can be purchased / found as digital downloads, or bought in paper.

1. WILD SPACE. Karen Miller is an obikin goddess, and if you enjoy Obi-Wan whump… HOLY HELL, she delivers. Obi-Wan is brutalized emotionally and physically and … 😵‍💫 it makes me pant 🥵 because I’m unhinged like that.

2. The two “Gambit” books, also by Karen Miller. These are a Kenobi and Skywalker adventure where they go undercover, off-world together and the whump is served to them both BIG TIME. Plus, lots of bonding 🥲

3. Mathew Stover’s “ROTS” novelization. BY THE FORCE. You will sob incessantly and incoherently, but the OBIKIN IS STRONG AF.

4. DARK DISCIPLE. Okay, this is a Quinlan Vos story, but it’s effin GOOD. And there are some charming Kenobi and Skywalker scenes.

5. Jude Watson wrote eleven “Jedi Quest” books highlighting Kenobi x Skywalker adventures throughout Anakin’s Padawan days. The bonding is ♥️🥹😭 10 of these can be found as digital downloads, one of them (the first one, simply called “Jedi Quest”) can’t be, it’s physical only. My favorite one is called “THE MOMENT OF TRUTH”.

Honorable mention. Kit Fisto is my all time favorite Jedi💚 and —while he is a hero in loads of comics— the book “The Cestus Deception” (by Steven Barnes) takes the cake! OMG! Barnes just made me fall head-over-heels for Fisto. He writes him so beautifully and and sexily and gahhhhh!!! Fun fact— the audiobook of this (I own this in physical, digital and audio because I’m a freak) is read by actor, Jonathan Davis, and let me tell you…. His “Fisto voice” is so effen sexy that I turn into a horny puddle when he speaks. AHHHHHH!!!! 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 I’m rambling now😵‍💫🥵😵‍💫🥵

I have read dozens and dozens of SW comics and books, from Windu and Palps stories to Ahsoka, even the secret romance of Obi-Wan and Siri. My mind is actually a minefield of random SW knowledge 😅 so I’m thrilled to make any suggestions anytime (or make you horny 🍆)

xo Maia

[persimminwrites]

I hope you don't mind about this ask, I just have SO MUCH to say about A Borrowing of Bones!!!!!!

Right so I love how Shadow has been introduced, how they are immediately shown to be a merc and have I ever said about how your descriptions come across really well, like I can easily imagine it?! But also how they're shown to be brusque and yet there's that little glimmer of affection peeking out AHDHAKDBDFJSJDH

Also I'm really interestes in how Shadow got this way, begrudgingly working with the Jedi while trying to keep the Force at arm's reach 👀 and not letting themselves feel lonely? Oh I WONDER!

Oooohhh the Wolfpack are hereeee

The way you describe their on file pictures are 🤌🤌 of course Boost would be grinning he's so cute 🥺😍 Crescent my beloved he seems so anxious 🫂 obviously Wolffe is scowling there's no way he'd be happy to have his time interrupted for yet another staff photo lmao

“I’m Comet. You can probably tell which of the grumpy assholes is Wolffe, and -”

🤌🤌🤌

Boost and Comet are so sweet 😘

Also when Shadow and Wolffe start to get into it I was like:

10/10 perfect I'm going to love their sniping and snapping so much haha

Min I am so so happy after reading this!!! 😘😘😘

MAIA !!!!!!!!! LISTEN

"no way he'd be happy to have his time interrupted for yet another staff photo" im screaming youre so riGHT LMAO the photographer was probably shaking in their boots lmaooo

[rexxdjarin]

Hey Julie! For the OC ask game! How about 35 and/or 48 👀?

OC Ask Game - Relationships Edition!

MAIA MY BBY💕 thanks for asking my about my beloved blorbos.

35. What moment did they realise that they were in love?

When Rex returns from Umbara. Shattered, broken, and questioning everything he's ever known. Mari is there for him, not because of any duty or anything, but because she cares for him deeply as a human being. And that touches his heart. He can't even speak after the atrocities he was made to unknowingly commit by a jedi ? he thought he could trust. But Mari doesn't ask him to. He spends all night being held by her, nurtured and protected, even when he has nothing left in him to offer her right then. When his duty calls him away the next morning, they take one last look at each other and what they communicate to each other without words is an unspoken 'I love you' so powerful that it bonded them together for life.

48. Do they get on well with each other’s family? Is family important to them?

Mari gets along beautifully with the 501st. They adore her. As do most clones who meet her because they know how much she fights for them. Since all of Mari's family is gone, Rex never knew them. But as time goes on, they realize nothing is more important than family. Especially when order 66 happens and Rex's brothers are forced into service to the Empire. Everything they do during Captain's Log is for Rex's family.🥰
