Jedi Master Bernardeau "Bernie" Aiyu Namya, General of the 318th Attack Battalion, served as the head créchemaster in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant for the majority of his life. From the day he was brought to the Temple by the woman who later became his Master, the Seeker Jolaia Shakeen, he exemplified the selfless love and care of the Jedi. He survived not only the loss of his Padawan Leonie but also, miraculously, the events of Order 66; he eventually settled down with his adopted daughter, Chava, and his husband, the previous clone Commander, Luck, in Luke Skywalker's new Jedi Temple.

one of my favorite forms of enrichment on this website is when i see a certain specific flavor of post without much context and i get to try to guess if it was originally intended as whump or kink

I am politely begging you to recruit Bernadetta in Headstone.

I can’t handle my purple baby being deep fried in 2 different stories…

Headstone is going to be the right story for you :) ! It is a story about a Byleth who tries to save everybody. Bernie absolutely lives her best life in that fic, as does literally everybody. Except Claude, who is nonstop suffering.

Unfortunately, I did feel as if I had to kill off a significant amount of the Black Eagles in Weekenders (sorry, Caspar!) - I needed Byleth's decision to prioritize the BL's survival to have stakes. Byleth chose their safety over their sanity, and she chose their lives over the BE's. Weekenders isn't a story that saves everybody, sadly, but Byleth did do her best.

The surviving Weekenders Black Eagles are Ferdinand, who was badly wounded by Byleth; Linhardt, who surrendered and became a POW quickly; and Dorothea, who Petra spared. They go on to live long lives after the story. Dorothea becomes a travelling opera star and sings in a lot of low-key digs at Fargus lol, Linhardt gets operation paperclipped and mostly spends his life listening to Ferdinand brag about his son and doing his crest research, and Ferdinand becomes the Duke of the Adrestian Territory. He has a son who is a main character in a lot of the future fic. Derrick is constantly going through it, at all times, always.

I debated it, but I did eventually decide that all of the GD made it. Claude becomes King of Almyra and Petra marries one of his half-sisters, successfully besting him in their long battle of wills and ensnaring him legally into the cult. He never marries, but he does adopt a random street urchin and appoints her heir because he thinks it'll be funny. It's fucking hilarious.

do you think the good mr cornwell sometimes stares at his desk with a desolate expression, lukewarm cup of coffee in hand, thinking 'there I go... ol' bernard writing about sharpe again... like always...' and bursts into manly tears of creative burn-out

this happens on a weekly basis at the very least, I believe, and he does this on his boat which he's bought with his sharpe money

And now Maxine is crying, and Sam is giving her company in doing just that.

And of course New Canton is also under fucking attack!

*Inhales* I miss Sara.

the fact that they thought replacing Biden with Harris would be BETTER is fucking crazy. I don’t know of a damn thing she’s done this entire time except take stupid walking photos at the beginning. She’s literally a cop. And she was still a part of the administration that was perpetuating genocide. Also, why would we want someone who Biden is endorsing???? We. Don’t. Like. Him. Why would we trust his endorsement???

This is unbearably tone deaf. The democrats are truly living in a different reality.

For younger Tommy and Len (Inside No.9, Bernie Clifton's Dressing Room), I actually have headcanon actors for what I believe they would've looked like.

These are my personal opinions, and I am in no way claiming any of these opinions as fact.

Len

For Len, I chose Kiefer Sutherland.

Down to the colour of his hair, his mannerisms, and the sometimes violent tendencies of the characters he's portrayed. As well as this, Sutherland has a similar body shape to what I imagine Len would've had. I think Len would hold more weight on his body than Tommy, due to his genetics.

Kiefer Sutherland has changed his look many times over the years, but I feel like Nelson Wright in Flatliners (1990) correlates the most with my idea of a younger Len Shelby:

The cuts and bruises on the left are especially in character, as I headcanon that Len would've been the type to get into a lot of fights.

However, I believe Len was the type of guy to experiment a lot with his appearance. So his style could range from this to any look he put his mind to.

Throughout the film, Nelson appears to be washed in a sort of sepia or burnt orange colour. I associate warmer colours, like orange, with Len.

Len, I feel, does like to be comfortable and he wears more casual clothes. I think Len would lean more towards a grunge or punk style of dress. I always imagine Len's hair to be more red than it is blonde, perhaps strawberry blonde.

Tommy

For Tommy, I chose River Phoenix.

He has a fantastic range and ability to play any character, which I thought was perfect for Tommy. Tommy goes through many changes in terms of personality throughout his life. Before meeting Len, he was shy and quiet. A bookworm who sits alone. After meeting Len, Tommy started taking on quite a few of Len's quirks. He became more outgoing, hanging out in places he probably shouldn't be, smoking, riding on Len's motorbike or taking the truck out for a spin (I headcanon that Len has a very strong interest in vehicles and mechanics). Len is sort of a bad influence on Tommy, but whatever. Tommy enjoys it. Later in his life, Tommy becomes the boss of a rather large digital marketing company where he learns he needs to be authoritative and straightforward.

Tommy's personality took many turns in his life, just like the characters that Phoenix has portrayed. River is thinner than Kiefer, much like how I imagine Tommy to be thinner than Len. While River Phoenix is slightly taller than Kiefer Sutherland, Tommy would most likely be shorter than Len (like Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton's height difference).

Like Sutherland, Phoenix had many looks over his career. But the most reminiscent of Tommy, I think, would be Danny Pope from Running on Empty (1988):

Tommy, I believe, would excel academically and be completely in his element when in classes. In the scene on the left, Danny Pope pays the utmost attention in his studies, and this fits Tommy very well.

Here, on this character, we see rounded glasses which I headcanon Tommy wearing when he was younger (as opposed to his more rectangular glasses in the canon episode). Pope also wears a lot of blues in the film, blue is a colour I associate very strongly with Tommy.

Tommy's clothing, like Len's, is comfortable and soft. But he isn't against wearing more elaborate and complex outfits, which he takes great care in putting together. I could see Tommy leaning more towards the artsy/preppy style of dress.

Despite Tommy's hair being dark on the poster of their younger selves in the episode, I cannot help but headcanon Tommy as blonde-haired.

we’ve been trying to figure out if the new asst manager is gay and the gay bookkeeper was like “give me one of the brooms not the ugly one” so i give him this black broom and we’re like ‘shes giving morticia’ ‘shes skinnyyyyy’ ‘shes serving cunt’ and the manager is like “ok i cant be here for this conversation” so the data point is moving towards “potentially still gay but maybe just boring”

[oopsalltes]

i really like the idea that when jules was younger he was basically just sonic. like sonic picked up on all of the things jules left behind when he got older/roboticized but perhaps Even Worse so jules and bernadetta have to deal with this frankly feral and untamable mini-jules that has to be unleashed (let out of the house) every five minutes or else the entire living room is about to become the aftermath of some untold battle

fans of wrestler redacted having to hard pivot to claiming aew is as morally bad as anything wwe mcmahon bc their guy is willing to compromise his stated values if they will give him a job is so funny. like you cant be mad at people for believing aew is better morally than vince mcmahons big conservative fundraiser sponsored by mbs when your guy himself has made his reputation on making the point that wwe bad for nearly a decade now. their are bad people at aew too but it is not systemic to the entire company's existence at the highest levels the way it is in wwe.

also since people on twitter are trying to pretend he was a lone voice of trans rights and got forced out bc of that im also gonna note aew had a trans womens world champion when p*nk was still working for fox's wwe backstage.
