#We love Parja in this house

[nocturius8015ficore]

Parja and I 😁

Just being an happy couple. 🥰

Traditional ink, pentel brush and fine markers

Nocturius: I wasn't sure if I should post that one publicly as it might become a reference for Fi-enjoyers through the years. I still haven't fully decide how I imagine Parja.. I might change her appearance eventually. I kinda want her to look a bit Scandinavian/Saame. Resilient people living in harsh condition very wintery biome.

What see saw from The Clone Wars and Rebels about native Mandalorian was also in my thought process. But anyone can be Mandalorian. Not just white-blond/ginger folks from the TCW, or east-Asian looking ones like Sabine.

In any case, her ethnicity is not that much relevant. Parja is a strong tough woman. She love hard and hate hard. I want her design to reflect her personality. I've notice she is not super popular among the RC fans, but it's Fi's wife, and I do liked the story about her give so much attention, positivity and care as he could totally have been a vegetable to rest of his life.

PS: I'm totally cool with people shipping Fi differently in their Alternate Universe. Here on Fi-Core tho, is as close a possible as the original ''canon'' material.

Little Pup

Notes: The Fetts here belong to @outcastcommander!

Jax Vizsla coludn’t help but stare at the little baby in his arms, absolutely mesmerized by the girl. He actually had  baby girl of his own, she had Ella’s bright red skin and her nose, but her blue hair was a bit more darker and Ella mentioned her eyes were the same shade of brown as his own.

“Listen, she’s not a bad kid.” Ella said as she sat down on the couch beside him. “It’s just.....”.

“You never wanted to be a mother?” Jax asked as he looked up at her and leaned back a bit, adjusting their daughter so that she was laying against his chest, he’d had plenty of practice with Parja and Kayla’s boys. Ella looked away without a word. “That’s not judgement. I know a couple women like that, it’s just not in their nature, but you did a great job with Talia so far.”.

“I tried, now it’s your turn.” Ella remarked as she reached over and gently brushed a finger against Talia’s cheek. “Feel free if you want to change her name too.”.

“I like it.” Jax muttered as he smiled at his little girl. “Talia Vizsla, it fits her. I’ve always kinda liked the name.”.

Ella hummed at that as she met Jax’s good eye with her own violet eyes. “You seriously don’t mind taking her?” Ella asked kindly, which caused Jax to sigh. 

“Nah, she’s my little girl.” Jax assured her as he gave a small smile, thinking of Kayla and the boys. “I got a nephew who’s about a year and half or so. He’s going to love having a playmate around his own age.”.

“Sounds like she’ll be having quite a bit of fun then.”.

Rav sighed as she followed Kayla into the house, and let Talan lean against her since the kid was exhausted. 

“Stop laughing! This isn’t funny, Rhys!” Jax’s voice drifted from the living room area. “You know how badly this could turn out!”.

The two women exchanged looks before they went to find their idiots.

“Is that a baby?” Talan asked as they walked into the room to find Jax seated on the couch and staring at the floor while Rhys held a baby in his arms and grinning at Jax while Dag  was sitting on the floor, watching everything curiously. “Jax, where did you get a baby?”.

“Zip it.” Jax said as he cast a glare at the younger who stared at him for a second, then looked at the baby then back at Jax with a smirk. “Not a single word.”.

“And here I thought it was no-strings attached!” Talan declared gleefully as he walked over to pick his baby brother up. “I’m pretty sure a baby counts as a string!”.

“Would it kill ya to keep yer trap shut?” Jax asked, slipping back into his more gruffer Concordian accent, as he glared at Talan who gave a morbid nod. 

“I mean, I know Ella’s a Zeltron and.....”.

“What is he talking about?” Kayla asked as she snapped out of her gaze and narrowed her bright blue eyes at Jax, who squirmed in his seat.

“Nothing that’s important now.”Jax assured her while Rav joined the older couple and looked at the girl, who was sleeping peacefully. She, as far as Rav could tell, was part-Zeltron but her hair was far darker than most Zeltrons.

“Remember Ella Torvi?” Talan chirps as he grinned at his mother.

“Which part of: Stay away from her wasn’t clear enough for you?” Kayla asked icily as she looked Jax irritably.

“It was a one time thing! We were both drunk!” Jax snapped back as he glared at his sister in return. “And don’t act like you and Rhys did something similar!”.

“That was diffrent and you know it.” Kayla looked back at the girl before returning her attention back to Jax. “How old is your daughter?”.

“Six months as of three days ago.”.

“Where was Myles?” Rhys asked as he looked at Jax curiously. “If you place her age up with how long Zeltron women are usually pregnant, then I know you two were working a job on Nar Shadda when you got drunk.”.

“Minerva.”.

“Typical.” Kayla snipped as she kept her gaze on Jax before she sighed. “What are you going to do?”.

“I don’t know.” Jax muttered as he looked towards the at the floor and shook his head before looking up at Kayla. “Have you and Rhys been thinking about having another kid?”.

“Jax Cassius Vizsla, you are severely testing my patience right now.” Kayla said as she walked over to swat the back on Jax’s head, which caused him to start a bit and look up at her. “You agreed to take her, didn’t you?” A nod. “You love your daughter, right?”.

“More than anything.” Jax admitted as a hand went up to lightly brush across the eyepatch he wore. “But do you have any idea what could happen to her if she stays with me?”.

Kayla’s look softened. “Jax, you can’t let him still have control over you like that.” Kayla gently ruffled his hair. “Talia is your responsibility, ahead of everything else.”.

“Look at how you are with Parja and the boys.” Rav added as she walked over and sat beside her boyfriend, taking her hand in his. “We both know you want to be a father.”.

Jax just fell silent and looked towards the ground, which set an uneasy silence through the room.

Kayla sighed as she exchanged a look with her husband, they had both assumed Jax had grown out of this by the time he was seventeen. She was both impressed and a bit pissed that he had been putting on an act like that.

The silence in the room was quickly shattered by her niece’s fussing. “Shh, it’s okay.” Rhys mumbled as he his attention instantly shifted to the girl while Jax snapped out of his brooding and quickly stood to hurry over to Rhys and retrieve his daughter, which caused the girl to stop fussing.

“She has it too.” Jax mumbled as he looked towards Kayla, who frowned slightly honestly sounding like he was going to cry. “She inherited it from me.”.

As annoyed as Kayla was, she understood why he was trying to give his daughter up. She knew how much he hated his abilities, and the fears that came from the abilities. “Tor can have her over my dead body.” Rav said heatedly as she stood and walked over to Jax and shook her head. “She’s our child. I’m not about to let that monster have her.”.

“Besides, you’ll have us to help too.” Rhys added with a mischevious grin. “And Kayla’s been waiting for a niece or nephew to spoil.”.

“I have not.” Kayla argued.

“Have to!” Rhys said in unison with Talan and a chirp from Dagorlad.

“But...” Jax began to say which caused Rav to roll her eyes and cover his mouth with her hand.

“We’ll figure this out, but I’m not leaving you and Myles alone again.” Rav told him with a small smile. “Understood?”.

Jax nod once.

“And we’ll going to talk about your paranoia later, with Cedric and Sarna. As well as that one-night stand.” Kayla added as retrieved Dag from Talan. “This is getting old fast, Jax. And it isn’t healthy.”.

“I....”.

“Nope. Unless it’s something nice and not destructive, no more words from you.” Rhys says wisely as he turned his attention to Talan, who let out a yawn. “Off to bed with you.”.

“Yeah, yeah.” Talan muttered as he went to leave the room.

“Sleep well, Tal’ika.” Jax chimed which caused Talan to pause and look at him before bolting out of the room.

“Don’t you dare.” Rhys warned the younger man who smiled slightly in return.

Jax ignored his words as he looked towards Kayla then at Rhys. “If....something happens to me, will you two look after Talia?”.

“Do you really need to ask?” Kayla respond as she walked over to lean against her adopted brother and smile as she noticed Talia’s eyes. “Why isn’t she named after me?”

So I really, really love Dar/Etain inheriting a Nar Shaddaa safehouse from Mereel and getting the fuck out of Kal’s abusive mopeville hut Kyrimorut

but at the same time the thing I really, really love about Mandalorians is their extended family network and the way their clans are close knit to the point where “no child is ever an orphan”, etc, etc. Just generally, that extended family in your daily life supporting you thing. And even if they make new networks and contacts, I don’t want them to be isolated from their family forever.

In the old RP group we never did decide if there was ever a reunification of the clan after it splinters in Kal’s hands, but even if there isn’t I’ve been brainstorming different reasons for Omega + a few others to end up on Nar Shaddaa because I’m weak

(also, for those actively looking for an out, it actually becomes much easier for them once Etain and Dar are out and have a safe, secure, and secret foothold to regroup at somewhere else. so thanks to Mereel’s hypothetical corpse, I guess?)

anyway, some characters/reasoning beneath the cut, and if anyone has suggestions as to improving characterization, I’m always open. these are not my specialty characters. you know who my specialty characters are.

So starting off with the easiest: 

Niner

Now don’t get me wrong, I feel like Niner, whose big key drives are loyalty and duty, is going to have an extremely difficult time leaving Kal behind. He might even be last. But I think his relationship with Dar post-IC (having basically held him together through a major break down) might be a factor, plus Atin and Vau, and other things, but that’s a separate post

Niner is probably the easiest for me to see ending up on Nar Shaddaa simply because he already has family there. We don’t really see him end up with specific plans for his life and he’s not firmly attached to anyone besides his brothers- but he wants to be where his brothers are.

And again, I kind of feel he has a special relationship with Dar post IC? He’d want to be with all his brothers if possible (and I’m about to come up with reasons for them to be there too), but I don’t think settling down in Dar’s spare room “as a stop gap” when he finally breaks down and follows the rest of Omega out is out of character. Then getting used to being in Kad and Dar’s lives again, being relied on. He may or may not stay in that extra room, but even if he isn’t I think he’d be near by? And tbh to me as someone ace the idea of being with someone closeknit platonically is really appealing though I don’t have that relationship with my own brothers.

Plus, he’s one I’d really like to see plugged into a larger Mandalorian framework, and since Manda’yaim is not an option, seeing him become a linchpin in the underlying structure of the Mandalorian sector would be really satisfying. Nar Shaddaa might be a chaotic mess, but I’d like to see him integrating into the wheels that keep the Mandos going, of his own volition this time, and finding a purpose he chose in it.

Jilka/Ruu/Corr

Okay, so I had a little too much fun with this one and I honestly think they might be part timers, but... listen, Jilka has the chops to hack all sorts of financial networks. Her girlfriend Ruu has done lots of merc work before. What’s to stop Jilka from pulling a Nate Ford, choosing a really scummy target on Nar Shaddaa, and basically going all Leverage/Shadow Broker to establish her own fortune independent of Kal Skirata, helping people in the mean time? 

Jilka is a mastermind, hacker, AND grifter. 

Ruu is the Eliot Spencer, eventually. Gets surprisingly good at being back up tactician, as she’s got a touch of that ruthless pragmatic streak herself.

Corr, however he’s attached to this threesome, is the hardware specialist turned thief bc you know what a knowledge of complex wiring does to security systems once he’s read enough specialty tech manuals? Also, Mereel showed him the SW equivalent of Parker’s gear once. Also, back up pretty grifter :)

They rotate in and out of Nar Shaddaa and have their own place, bc they do take other jobs off-world, go visit Besany maybe, etc, etc but they’re still there when they’re on world, and Koa thinks Jilka’s sarcasm is hilarious

Weird Nate Ford-Jilka parallel in her getting used to being PART of the underground and/or constantly surrounded by Mandos? Idk

Sometimes Jilka draws Besany, Etain and Laseema all in bc yes pls

Fi

This one is  one of the weakest, honestly, so you know, feedback away. But he did explicitly like the open spaces and the thrill of Coruscant. When he finally made it to Mandalore, he missed the city. Enter, Nar Shaddaa, giant city where he has family 

Also, I don’t really ship Parja/Fi so, potentially can also find cute Mandalorian boyfriend? eventually adopt kids with Mandalorian husband?

Might rotate in and out and meet up with Parja at Levet’s place occasionally though, bc I do Brotp them, but like... only for so long as the Imperial invasion of Mandalore isn’t scanning for all the Fett clones

Mereel

Okay, so he left them the safehouse and current headcanon is that when he shows up alive, he shows up at Etain’s door bc it was his safe house. He recovers there, and honestly, it would be pretty rude to kick him out of his own place? considering he wasn’t even actually dead he probably still owns it? but anyway Etain and the kids love Mereel?

Only Ranah God knows where he’s actually gonna be at any given time, since he doesn’t like to settle and he does eventually have a second private place in a different sector no one knows about bc he’s that person who needs fall backs and boundaries...

but, like, if he’s on Nar Shaddaa, there’s also a considerable chance he’s parked on Etain’s couch. he shows up at two AM with a black eye, caffa icecream, and glitter and everyone just accepts it. may or may not have Etain keeping a room for him after he recovers and moves out bc I still don’t know the actual fucking layout of this safehouse/apartment

Atin/Laseema

This one is a bit *hand-wavey-gesture* honestly? 

I think I’m torn because on one hand all the “so sad they can’t have kids so saad” bs from Traviss made me pissy and made me headcanon they don’t want kids but take fulfillment from being in a clan where children are present? 

at the same time, Laseema just got away from Hutts and Atin strikes me as kinda a woodsy guy who wouldn’t necessarily enjoy another city planet? (idk where I’m getting that impression tbh)

then again, Laseema outwitting the Hutts with Jilka would be 👌also Laseema getting to reconnect with other Twi’leks who have been in her position and build a network or resources and outreach?

Or as a Rebel leader and Nar Shaddaa is where she goes dark when the Imperials are too close?

I’m dragging literally everyone else in Omega back one way or another so

[thesummerstorms]

Character ask: Etain, Ruu, Parja? (you'll have to use your imagination for hotness levels I guess lmao)

Etain is answered here

Ruu

general opinion: fall in a hole and die | don’t like them | eh | they’re fine I guess | like them! | love them | actual love of my life

canon is “what purpose does this even have for the plot”, but my headcanoned Ruu I like, although she’s... plot divergent

hotness level: get away from me | meh | neutral | theoretically hot but not my type | pretty hot | gorgeous! | 10/10 would bang

I imagine Ruu as just being really, really... average, honestly? Not super conventionally attractive, not super conventionally ugly, wears make up sometimes, works out, resting bitch face. normal person. 

hogwarts house: gryffindor | slytherin | ravenclaw | hufflepuff

Her ambition in this case being to live the life that’s true to her, but she’s not really drawn to high concepts like knowledge or justice or honor for the hell of them and she doesn’t love and accept everyone. She wants the freedom to make her own way and live authentically to her own self. 

At first she mistakenly thinks Kal is the answer, but that was... projection? Deflection? She’s stuck between Mando and Corellian and has to do a lot of realizing re: Kal, and it’s a hard bit of personal growth

best quality: Her resilience, tenacity, and authenticity 

worst quality: Her temper, restlessness, occasional brittleness

ship them with:  Dating Jilka, in a poly relationship with Jilka and Corr. (And maybe others are involved down the line? My Ruu is a lesbian though.)

brotp them with: Corr, Etain eventually bc that would be neat and I also want to give her all the friends. Besany -who is initially certain Ruu hates her but actually has a lot of her respect and who gets to know her better as she becomes involved with Jilka- and Ordo - who she butts heads with, but comes to accept as family-

needs to stay away from: okay, but everyone needs to stay away from Kal

misc. thoughts: she had so much potential, but I’m having to fanon it in

Parja

general opinion: fall in a hole and die | don’t like them | eh | they’re fine I guess | like them! | love them | actual love of my life

canon Parja is not developed enough to have feelings about except to rage at plot, plot divergent headcanon Parja I like

hotness level: get away from me | meh | neutral | theoretically hot but not my type | pretty hot | gorgeous! | 10/10 would bang

I ithink Parja’s actually really attractive probably???

hogwarts house: gryffindor | slytherin | ravenclaw | hufflepuff 

best quality: Determination, willingness to call out bullshit

worst quality: Commits too quickly and gets in over her head, has a hard time letting things go.

ship them with:  Not Fi.

brotp them with: A host of genuine friends of different genders who are not part of nor have associations with Clan Skirata, and who she refuses to cut ties to just for “Security concerns”. Laseema. Fi, because a BroTP where she helps him work through his feelings actually would have been wonderful. Atin, because they bond over precise, fiddly electrical work. 

needs to stay away from: okay, but everyone needs to stay away from Kal

misc. thoughts: she was so underutilized and her plot so nonsensical; we have to to save her
