ACOLYTE SPOILERS.

This is a reminder to Acolyte fans that the sudden murder of a character you were excited to see more of is a staple of the High Republic.

Welcome to the era we got queer rep but sacrifice our sanity for it.

[shield-and-saber]

my thoughts 190 pgs into into the dark:

is this just blatant "di is missing the acolyte" propaganda, maybe and what of it (altho orla really reminds me more of gella, i digress)

Amusing Notes I Took While Reading The Fallen Star

(about Bell) Oh thank fuck, the ending of The Rising Storm didn't totally break my baby

Elzar's been trying to fill the Avar-shaped hole in his heart and Orla Jareni's like "Not with me you won't, now get your shit together!"

Oh, I missed these guys! (Joss and Pikka Adren)

[Meanwhile, on the Ataraxia, Avar Kriss' hunt had brought her to her quarry at last] She's back! Everyone drop everything, my girl has returned!

(about Avar and Elzar) The pining! I swear, these two are gonna break me

[If any of my Tempest Runners were as competent as my lackey, Ro thought, only imagine what I could do] If any of your Tempest Runners were as competent as your lackey, they would have already murdered you.

[Oh, great, Geode's on the prowl again] "Again"?? Babe, the fuck you mean "again"??

Ghirra Starros is one of those "sure, he's a red flag, but red's my favourite colour!" idiots...

[The Ataraxia. The ship carrying Avar Kriss] I am as delighted as Elzar! Fuck yes.

Woah, woah, don't drop this ominous shit on me in a bracket!!

Elzar's like "my girl can handle herself - everyone else here, not so much!"

This level of dramatic irony is starting to make this whole thing feel like a horror movie

I am going to need five-to-seven business days to recover from this fucking book!

Historical Jedi Cosplay Part II

In the first part, I tried to distill down the essence of what makes a jedi outfit look like a jedi outfit. Since then, I have gotten deep into the High Republic, so I wanted to add a few illustrations of female Jedi from that project.

Avar Kriss in her everyday wear as a jedi. We have boots, pants, and three layers up top. She seems to have a wrap undershirt, a wrap tunic, and then her little pauldron/tabard thingy. And then of course her belt. She also has those armor vambraces and some kind of armor panel on her feet.

Here she is in her white-and-golds. It's essentially all the same elements but fancy (although she does seem to have the same boots). Pants, undershirt, tunic, and tabard. And then a cape on top.

Keeve Trennis has a similar arrangement in a slightly different style.

Orla Jareni is an outlier in that she wears white all the time. It seems to just be a fashion choice rather than representing anything in particular, although she is a Wayseeker and as an Umbaran has chalk white skin as well. Who knows, she's a weirdo who I love. She seems to have an undershirt with long sleeves, something that has those little tabards sticking out, an over jacket thing with the wide sleeves, and the final vest on top. But it's kind of hard to tell because they're all white.

In Phase II, taking place 150 years before Phase I, you have padawan Matty Cathley and knight Oliviah Zeveron. Padawans in the High Republic have matching under-belts to their lightsabers, but their outfits have some variation. Matty has the 3-layer combo of undershirt, tunic, and tabard. Oliviah does too.

Master Silandra Sho has a little more variance, with her draping belt and short batwing tunic. Since the white stuff on her arms is wrappings, I imagine the white on her chest might just be sort of a scarf or kerchief, but it could be a sleeveless undertunic.

Gella Nattai has a cool gold chest plate sort of thing under her tabard:

Barash Silvain favors a lighter palette, and also has a cool cape skirt thingy:

Overall, it seems like the Jedi had a much more unified look in their golden age, and not just in the temple robes. In the prequel era, it seems like some jedi just wear their normal robes all the time, while some might have a somewhat fancier version for formal occasions

Orla and Cohmac's interactions throughout Into the Dark are so funny because all of them just go

Cohmac: "I can't believe the Jedi don't let us grieve!!"

Orla: "Ummmm, they do tho???"

Cohmac: "Sorry, did you say something?"

So I drew some High Republic chibies

High Republic chibies because these characters now live in my head rent free 😫. Like why is this series so good?!
