#bd - pt2

[twilight-saga-soundtracks-polls]

Another bonus throw-away poll because Breaking Dawn - Part 2 still has a short soundtrack!

[cringemantumble]

“What do you mean?” She called out to the bandit, his teethy smile stretched over his burnt face like pearls shining out from a leather purse. He didn’t answer, walking down the spiral staircase in clomping steps, each reverberation shuttering against the rotten wood of the broken building. The lady snuck glimpses of him through the moonlit holes in the floor: she coiled to herself, froze, and then reanimated in swift pursuit.

“Are you insane!?” She questioned, high heeled stomping onto the rusted metal accentuated her disapproval. “Never saner!” Cilian answered with triumphant swinging of his arms as he reached the ground floor. She called out over the banister “You’ll be killed…” then swiftly vanishing and reappearing “or worse: tortured!”. “Can’t see how that’s worse if I’m still alive.” Cillian answered half inside a closet, with a tablecloth, wine glasses, and silver silverware.

The tablecloth flung into the air, spiraling down onto an out of place oaken table, creasing itself into a uniform pattern as a plate rolled and settled itself wobbling infront of a leather chair. A folded napkin plopped into formation on its right, as the heavens armed it with two sized forks and a knife threatening the now pacified saucer. Its twin mirrored it across the linen path, their emptiness broken by slices of bread and the space between them filled by a candelabra.

Soft champagne foamed over two tall thin glasses, their incontinent dripping falling away from the aerial placesetting onto the rotten floors. The Lady was offered, first her glass, then the chair. She gladly accepted both as the dexterity and gentlemanly behavior tore her thoughts of gruesome death only long enough for dinner to be set. Bruschetta, roast duck, garlic confit, and three-fourths of a warm baguette were available for her choosing. She spread the garlic confit over a toasted piece of bread, deeply bit into it, and as she opened her eyes from satisfaction she sputtered. “YCH CBNT DP THPT” she spat out with filled cheeks over the fine linen, crumbs spewing from her mouth.

𑣲 significant pt2 I @softlyspector

Din has been calling you riduur for months. You finally find out what it means, and get a little more than you bargained for.

𑣲 pregnant!reader I @/softlyspector

𑣲 common mistake I @theidiotwhowritesthings

𑣲 in a perfect world, you love me pt2 I @/theidiotwhowritesthings

On the way to visit an old friend, you and Mando find trouble. Both of you are subjected to a drug that puts you in your perfect world. But, when you can’t tell what’s real and what isn’t, how do you know what to trust?

𑣲 familiar and unfamiliar I @/theidiotwhowritesthings

You travel the galaxy with a Mandalorian who is much softer than his impenetrable beskar would lead others to believe. He leaves you with his son to search for a Quarry, but it’s not the Mando you’ve come to know and love who returns to you.

𑣲 bucket of bolts I @rosepascal

The dad and the dog he didn't want but its Din Djarin and a BD unit.

𑣲 push and pull I @sinsofsummers

after convincing him to help you hide from the guild, you teach mando how to enjoy himself. this is the way.

𑣲 touching din I @archieimagines

The three times that Din bends his own rules and engages in physical touch. 

𑣲 secrets I @absurdthirst

Reader gets drunk and mouthy. Mando wrestles with his own sense of sexuality and wonders if he can fulfill the desires of his crew member.

𑣲 pure beskar I @bits-and-babs

𑣲 kiss the scars I @januaryembrs

You and Mando are forced to remove your helmets to save the child. But to you, it means more than breaking your creed. To you, it means revealing the thing you're most insecure about.

𑣲 kar’taylir I @the-archxr

the four times Din Djarin almost says it, and the one time he does. alternatively, the four times you almost say it, and the one time you do.

𑣲 my pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand I @thefrogdalorian

When you and your Mandalorian companion are ambushed by a group of bandits, you hope that his stubborn nature will not make the task of treating his wounds any more difficult than it needs to be. But that is not the only obstacle. You also hope that the depth of your unrequited feelings for Din will not impact on your ability to care for him...

𑣲 downpour I @/thefrogdalorian

Leading a solitary, nomadic existence for much of his life means that Din Djarin has never cuddled up to someone he loves during a rainstorm. Until one night in his cabin on Nevarro, when unseasonably poor weather introduces him to one of life’s simple pleasures.

𑣲 pretty picture I @groguspicklejar

Din would do anything to keep any outside threat from touching his clan.

𑣲 keep it down I @multifandombitxh

𑣲 creed I @wheresarizona

Upon meeting Bo-Katan Kryze and discovering there are other Mandalorians out in the galaxy who remove their helmets, Din Djarin is suddenly questioning his beliefs and unable to stop from wondering what you, his wife, look like under your own helm.

𑣲 i need you more than i wanted to I @peterparkersnose

Y/N overhears a damaging conversation between Din and Greef Karga

𑣲 face to face I @bluebeary-jay

as riduurs, you and Din can finally show your faces to each other without suffering any consequences. but when the time finally comes, your insecurities and fears of rejection come into play, threatening to ruin this important moment.

You’re trapped inside a Din x Omera love triangle, struggling to get to your lover who’s entranced with your new host.

𑣲 courting I @writerlyhabits

𑣲 request I @/writerlyhabits

Din’s partner figures out they’re pregnant, and is terrified. They aren’t married, this is the worst time possible, Din already has so much responsibility on his shoulders. But they have to tell him. Because Din deserves to know. She’s terrified of what his reaction might be, if he’d be angry, or excited, or dismissive, etc.

𑣲 shine and polish I @/writerlyhabits

Din catches you cleaning/polishing his armor for him (something usually only done between courting Mandos) and gets all shy explaining the implications to you

𑣲 lost in translation I @flowersforjude

A night in a beautiful meadow and an innocent question leads to a startling confession.

𑣲 not that easy I @backtothefanfiction

When Din realised he was starting to have feelings for you, he got scared. Snuck away before sunrise and left you stranded on Nevarro. When you catch up to him on Tatooine, you have a few choice words for him.

𑣲 caught in 4k I @beskarandblasters

You catch Din watching porn and discover his secret; his breeding kink.

𑣲 you’re the loss of my life I @/beskarandblasters

You reminisce on your time with your riduur after his death.

𑣲 where to start I @tremendum

Din lets out a shaky sigh, finally turning around in the chair to face you, legs spread slightly, “it’s not like- I don’t not want to- I just haven’t-I don’t know where to start." 

𑣲 mine I @thefanbasewhore

Din says goodbye to reader and Grogu but once they are reunited Din has mixed feels about the situation, jealous of Luke

𑣲 beautiful truths I @haylzcyon

After hiring you for your unique ability of being able to detect lies, the Mandalorian unknowingly consumes a tea that has adverse effects. You decide to help him, and find out some surprising truths along the way.

𑣲 best kept secret I @lincolndjarin

Married off to a prince on a planet that you hate? New husband doesn't know you, and doesn't want to know you? New husband gifts you a personal Mandalorian body guard as a wedding present? Mandalorian is a wiseass who won't leave you alone? Lucky you.

𑣲 of beskar and kyber I @penvisions

You’ve been on the run for as long as you can remember, from a lot of different people and a lot of different things. Everyone seems to see you as either a prize to show off or a captive to exploit. You had been successful in keeping a low profile and evading brief captures. That is until your mother contracted the Guild and the Mandalorian came to possess your tracking fob. Will he be the reason your freedom is no longer something attainable or will he be the one to help you achieve it in ways you never anticipated? 

𑣲 expanding clan mudhorn I @iron-strangers

Din Djarin met a former jedi padawan who, after surviving order sixty-six, was adopted and raised as a Mandalorian. This series explores the journey of their growing clan as Din juggles the newfound responsibility of being the Mand'alor.

𑣲 supply of run part two part three I @thepascalofus

You’ve been Mando’s crew partner for a year now. Throughout that year Mando has warmed up to you and given you signs that your heart throbbing crush on him is reciprocated. There’s one thing making you hesitate. The condoms he bought on the most recent supply run.

𑣲 ever since we met, i only shoot up with your perfume I @yeollie-plz

You receive a new perfume, Din really likes your new perfume.

𑣲 tear in my heart I @suresnips

after a rough encounter with a bounty leaves him worse for wear, din needs your help to patch himself up. little do you know he's struggling with more than just external injuries.

𑣲 quarry I @ak-vintage

Din Djarin is on what he expects to be his last bounty hunt for Greef Karga. After all, Nevarro is swiftly moving away from its previous reputation as a Guild member’s paradise, and Din has more important concerns now, like finding a Jedi to train his mysterious foundling. However, after capturing a wanted starship engineer who would rather go anywhere other than “home,” the Mandalorian is forced to reassess his priorities. Your taste of freedom had been brief but glorious. Now you are a prisoner of the most infamous bounty hunter in the Outer Rim – it’s only a matter of time before he turns you in. There isn’t much you would not do to keep from being sent home, but as you find yourself growing closer to your captor and his strange little companion, you start to wonder whether escape is really what you want.

𑣲 i’d look for you I @jolalibrary

din offers you something else in a field of wildflowers

[panlight]

The other thing about the Renesmee storyline that bothers me (other than it not really making sense that only half of the vampire species retains fertility, or that it rubs motherhood in Esme and Rosalie's face, or I just don't vibe with supernatural pregnancy/creepily smart children stories) is that it sort of invalidates all the cool stuff SM did with found families.

The Cullens are LITERALLY a found family--Carlisle found Edward, Esme and Rosalie; Rosalie found Emmett; Alice found Jasper and then then Cullens; Edward found Bella. They aren't actually related at all, but they created this bond, this family, and that's so interesting to me how they come from different places, different time periods, and still make this work. Fascinating!

And the wolfpack, too! Now some of them are actually related, but generally as like second or third cousins. I don't know about you, but I only really know my first cousins, and even then not all that well. I had a second cousin in my homeroom in high school and even though we had the same last name I didn't know her at all. We just shared great-grandparents that died before we were born. So to me the pack also has that found family vibe. Sam as the pack dad despite being so young himself. Emily as the pack mom, making snacks and giving the boys a place to hang out at her house. The brotherly joking and bickering and fighting between all the guys. You can tell in these scenes that SM grew up with brothers. I did, too, and there are moments that really capture that, even though other than Seth and Leah, none of them are actually siblings.

But then she throws in Renesmee and it sort of feels like, "well, found family is good enough for the others, but Edward and Bella need a REAL family." Esme "makes do with substitutes" but E/B get a REAL child, and that just did not sit well with me. And in the movies Edward even has LINES that reflect that vibe, when he's standing with Alice and Jasper as the wolves attack in BD pt1 and says like "I won't let them hurt my family;" like Alice and Jasper themselves aren't also his family. Or in BD Pt2 when he tells Bella, "You've given me something to fight for: a family." Again, like he hasn't had a family all this time. I get that when you become a spouse and parent your definition of family can change but it still just felt kind of like a slap in the face considering we spent all this time with the other characters and they have all risked their lives so this Edward/Bella/Nessie family can even exist. Including the shifters!! And maybe she didn't mean anything by it, but because Nessie is the only biological child in the Cullen family is does come off that it's superior to the other kinds of bonds somehow.

I don't know, it just sort of feels like biological family is elevated above the found families. For example, in the books, Renesmee doesn't actually call them Aunt Alice and Uncle Jasper like in the movie, she only calls them Alice and Jasper. Charlie gets to be Grandpa, but Alice and Jasper aren't Aunt and Uncle.

And I really liked the found family stuff, so this "REAL family now" vibe was . . . not my favorite.

Grand Line Baby Daddies pt2

Franky

BD Franky is SUPER excited to be a dad, tells just about everyone he can, to include Marines and randos in passing - team too much

BD Franky doesn't want you to lift a single pretty finger, Big Daddy (as he dubbed himself) has got everything under control... save for cooking

BD Franky is so tender despite the hulking handyman he is, v soft with newborn daughter 

BD Franky is SUPER proud when a 3 year old girly decides to make alterations to the toy her dad handcrafted- it's destroyed now but it's nothing he can't fix

BD Franky promises forever on sunset skylines, surprisingly suave up until he's asking for baby #2

Jimbei 

BD Jimbei has been around for a while, seen quite a bit in his time, is still somehow wholly unprepared for being a father - or so he thinks

BD Jimbei is responsible and very attentive, also not a bad cook at all - is still to this day a little flustered with pda

BD Jimbei is torn between letting his young son make his own mistakes and providing him with teachings himself - ultimately does both 

BD Jimbei strongly prefers a committed relationship with his BM but understands if she chooses to be with someone else, not an ounce of bitterness, an amazing coparent 

BD Jimbei is honestly v shocked at the strength of his half fishman son, starts training immediately after he kicks through a wall in tantrum 

Trafalgar D Water Law

BD Law is fucking terrified inwardly - outwardly he's trying and failing to hold it together at the news

 BD Law doesn't have much faith in himself but the second his daughter is born promises to do whatever it takes for you and his baby and he means it

BD Law is stern as Hell with you and his (other) baby girl, but enough poking and prodding and he'll cave in to just about anything. Hint: weak to pouting

BD Law is v particular about what you and his pumpkin put into your bodies, demands the cook stick to specific food groups - lots of veggies and protein 

BD Law cherishes both of you. His greatest fear is losing his newfound family, but a small part of him thinks Corazon is protecting you both from beyond

[volturiprincess]

Not sure were this energy to post stuff is coming from but here is another post🤗

In the scene in BD Pt2 where Carlisle is talking about the immortal children and the Volturi, I always wondered where the hell Alec was at. Im all thinking "damn the Volturi as always are just serving with their outfits except Alec". Until I rewatched that scene and for a couple of seconds you can in fact see Alec. Why couldn't they have him stand next to Jane?

Again the Volturi can just swoop in with style. We only get small scenes of them through out the saga and yet they got better style than everyone else🤭 (in my opinion). I wonder how they come up with there outfits though. Each outfit they wear is a representation of them in a way. I get it there like really old but I mean who tells them what's in style or not (they rarely go out and about but I can totally see Caius being in charge of the style because well he is a man of art after all). But they also coordinate in a way, the guards outfits have similarities yet they are still different.

Like look at my man and my casanova

Not sure what those things on Felix shoulders are but he is looking fine as always. Demetri as always as elegant, he knows he looks good. Like who gave these two permission to look this good, I just love this duo. Why do they need to look so good when they are about to execute someone (I mention this to a mutual but every time I see Felix execute someone he always does a face).

But Caius cannot be forgotten

I always say that him in gold is just 😍, but in red, fuck thats his color also. I just love Jamie in general, its funny how I forgot he was in Twilight, I was watching Stranger things (could not get my eyes of him to be honest, its the whole "I can fix him" mode instantly) and I was like hold up who is this beautiful man (I was right away finding out what other stuff he was in and saw he was in Twilight). He's one of the reasons how I started to get into this fandom (I remembered some bits and parts of the movies when they came out but I mean I was a child at the time).

Anyways enough ramble for today😁.

[eleanorscullen]

A detail I wish they would’ve added in the bd pt2 movie is the fact that Bella could clearly see all of Jasper’s scars since her vision (all of her senses) were heightened, which is part of the reason vampires find him so intimidating

[wtowingedtragicobsidian]

BDS Gender & Orientation HCs pt2 PM

~if a character/commentary is not included I’m just assuming they’re cis/straight~

Akutagawa:

Orientation:|Gay, Demiromantic| Doesn’t get romantically attached to people, with a few notable exceptions. He has never looked upon a woman with lust in his life and genuinely doesn’t understand the appeal (lol). He does understands the appeal of men but his fear of physical vulnerability tends to negate him acting on it.

Higuchi:

Orientation: |Bi| The Akutagawa’s were her bi awakening.

Chuuya:

Orientation: |Gay| Exclusively likes men. He was self-conscious about it (possibly with some self-loathing) when he was younger but then he met Albatross and the Flags, and they assured him it was cool (half of them were queer anyway). Since then, he’s been secure in his identity, but keeps pretty quiet about it as he’s a very internally guarded person who likes to keep his personal life private. Still, he won’t compromise for others’ comfort and can be quite outspoken if somebody’s making unsavory remarks—regardless of if they’re directed at him or not.

*Chuuya has a soft spot for the younger queer kids in the mafia and tries to subtly wingman for them. He’s like a brother figure to a lot of them and is more than willing to talk with them about their identity or offer comfort, regardless of how close they might be. (yes, in his own way he’s trying to pay forward what the Flags did for him.)

Tachihara:

Orientation: |Queer(pan)| Had never really given sexuality much thought and just assumed he was straight—and then he met Gin and was like ‘oh, guess not’. Since then, he has been more in touch with his sense of attraction.

Gin:

Gender: |Genderfluid, Demigirl| Mostly use neutral forms of expression/address, however, for as much gender euphoria that causes, they do get a bit antsy if they haven’t been able to express either of the binaries for a while. Conveniently their work/life balance lets them express their gender with relative ease, presenting femininely (and using feminine or neutral pronouns, though feminine is more common) while off work—and conversely presenting masculinely/androgynously while a work (and using neutral and masculine pronouns, though neutral ones are generally preferred). She doesn’t tell many people about her gender and often lets them assume —usually enjoying the mixed results and ambiguity—unless they are very close with her (so the Black Lizards and her brother know).

Mori: (When I was writing this, I told myself I wasn’t going to touch this one, but then I stared at his hairline too long and realized he would be wilding more interesting—to me specifically—if he was ace, so-)

Orientation: |Asexual, Demiromantic| Fascinated with sex and human sexuality to an almost fetishistic degree and is more than willing to exploit/abuse those attachments in others—he likes to watch the fallout and sadistically enjoys the exertion of his power. BUT, he doesn’t feel that kind of attraction himself, which may be a contributing factor to why he’s so interested in it.

He does, however rarely, feel romantic attraction. He’s had one(1) notable crush and its fucked with him ever since.

Kouyou:

Orientation: |Bisexual-sapphic| Despite (in the strictest sense of the term) being bi, she only entertains advances from women and will identify as lesbian if asked. She did have a notable romance with a man in her youth and while it was genuine attraction, it burned her forever—since then she has shunned the romantic advances of men. After that formative heartbreak all her entanglements have been sapphic in nature, but she’s still very wary of romance and ‘love’, so they have been few and far between; mostly consisting of short lived situationships.

Q:

Gender:|Nonbinary| Uses neutral pronouns. They get a right kick watching people fumble to trying to figure out how to categorize them.

[coredrill]

don’t want to assume to much abt the braeburn bd novel until its out in full but it does make me wonder if obari saying that braeburn was originally supposed to be 24eps DOESN’T mean that it was originally supposed to be that story stretched over twice the length, and instead means that like. the show was always supposed to be the show as is, and then there were supposed to be 12 more eps after it, like the hot springs as ep13 and then this novel pt2 stuff and then kuro braeburn arc andthen like. going to find the DDs or smth as the grand finale. cause like otherwise why put this in a bluray novel??????????? 😩

Responding common criticism and worries

@gymleacler replied : (Please engage in good faith because, to be clear, I am avowedly pro-Palestine, anti-Israel.) I have some apprehension about this, or at least calling it a 'strike'. Directing people across the globe to take unilateral/independent action in the workplace is a recipe for disaster and I don't think that has been thought through, esp. with about a week warning, and not how unions or strikes work. pt1 E.g. What kind of protections are in place for workers who dont work in case of action from their employers? From an employer/employee side of things, what are the demands of this 'strike'? Considering this is 'global', what about ppl from countries without a strong union movement? I just worry this could hurt people who have good intentions. pt2/2

Each time Bisan call for global general strike or protest, especially since December 10, there have been these questions n discussions abt it.

The Way This Works:

Someone directly affected - A Palestinian reporter with platform (like Bisan) calls for way disrupt economy in any way + pressure + and bring attention to the specific atrocities happening, often while thinking they will die. -

Originally, the first Global Strike (December 12) was for nearby arab countries - then U.S., U.K., Canada, n some E.U. - then expanded. -

Jan 21 - 28 Strike was called for while Bisan was at the last fully functioning hospital, being bombed n raided. And the daily (non-missing known) death counts rising even more. -

Because of dire circumstance of the genocide - long-term years-long planning on global-level, is not possible. -

We have to adapt this into strategy. It is still called global n general strike, bc it involves multiple sectors n strategies (including disruptions to weapons, gas industry where it apply, boycotting + pressure based on 20+ years of BDS org, work, mutual aid /backup, food, whatevers). This is a difference in connotations between culture n language, that have to be accepted when dealing with cross-cultural activism. -

So for work-related and school-related strikes, will have to rely local grassroots orgs and chapters that specify local circumstance of what can be done as group in your area and what local goals should be - beyond the Global goals. They will also generally tell what the risks are involved. Of which when going through the links n researching further - when finding list protest or strike organizing in area, will usually find info of which chapter doing organizing or what location n when. Plus, work strikes are supposed be done in groups. When deciding what to do, people should actually look through the links and do research as have been provided. A USPC won't be same as a FOA, nor APC-UK, in their strategies n needs. -

If its not possible for someone to do work or school related strikes, especially with high risk to themself and not having a local group nor union - they should do something else on the list. or talking to co-workers about Palestine when possible, anything. The reason this so wide in options and accommodating to the people involved, is bc of having to do this so quick bc there no recourse otherwise. -

Besides this, it would be good for you to actively search for these discussions and the contexts. Since your asking this on the 4th or so global strike means you aren't familiar, but there are other infos + strategies + resources from previous strikes n protests that can be referenced. -

Am from "Third World" and the Western World (not inner colony) has a different view and history on global solidarity methods, of which the connotations is something am not going to be able to personally unpack, especially when just woke up.

So would, encourage finding Palestinian and Arabi activists on here that can more eloquently explain beyond what Magz have without being at-risk throwing up and fainting, etc. from mental cognitive strain from disability + language issues. As am acknowledge n aware of Magz limits in these discussion. Thank you, and good day.

Note: If aren't going to participate in Pro-Palestine action, do not mention it!

For accountability: This is how Magz plans support Palestine during Global Strike January 21 to 28.

Am going to put more Palestine posts in queue, with more focus.

Am going to not spend on anything during week, nor go out (rare anyway).

Am going to not publicly post our arts and promos (of art freelance work).

Am going to read and learn more on Palestine - as there still more can learn.

Am going to be even more visibly pro-Palestinian.

Am going to continue keeping up with what's happening in Gaza.

Am going to continue boycotting products and services on BDS' Boycott List, including not giving free social media promo and good impressions.

Am going to try learn Palestinian Arabic.

Am going to describe, transcribe, and alt text posts on Palestine when possible - to make it more accessible (Am Multiply Disabled).

Am going to share ways to help.

バルクのBU40N UHDスリムドライブを買ってみた

DVDFabのUHDドライブツールのページ(https://dvdfab.org/uhd-drive-tool.htm?trackid=headmenu2,headmenu2)にUHD公式ドライブとして「LG BU40N」があり、Amazon.co.jpをふらふらしていたら「日立LGデータストレージ製 9.5mm BU40N ウルトラスリムUltra HD Blu-rayドライブ(https://amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B07BSF41VW)」のバルクがあり、「もしかしてこのドライブでもいけるかな？」と思い、購入しました。発送地が海外のため、１週間くらい待たされました。

むき出しのままでは使えないので「ODDケース、FunienウルトラスリムポータブルUSB 3.0 SATA 9.5mm外付け光ディスクドライブケースボックス（PCラップトップノートブック用）(https://amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B09FF721XJ)」も買い、取り付けて試してみました。

まず今回購入したUHDドライブのファームウェアのバージョンは1.02でした。これを1.00にダウングレードしてコピーできるようにするわけですが、DVDFab UHDドライブツールで試したところ、進行状況を示す緑色のバーが真ん中らへんで止まってしまい、ファームウェアのダウングレードができませんでした。

それじゃってことでMakeMKVのフォーラムの「Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2023(https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19634)」からダウンロードした、ファームウェアをダウングレードするツールとファームウェアを利用して1.00にダウングレードすることに成功。

この状態でDVDFabを使ってUHDディスク(今回はトップガン マーヴェリック)のコピーを試したところ、うまくいきました。Passkeyでは試していませんが、多分大丈夫だと思います。

これでUHDディスクをコピーできるドライブが5台(うち、1台はPasskeyじゃないとダメ)になりました。こんなに持っててどうするんだという気もしますが、入手ができなくなってから貴重性が上がるのはPT2/PT3で示されているので、多少多くても持っていていいのではないかと思います。

今のところ、簡単にUHDコピードライブを手にするには「Archgon USB 3.1外付けCD/DVD/Blu-ray/UHDドライブUltra HD 4K コンテンツUHD BD 再生対応 ブルーレイ ドライブ アルミ製筐体 ポータブル 保護ケース付きWindows/Mac 両対応 USB-A, USB-C ケーブル両方付属されています (Style UHD HLDS BU40N USB A + USB C ケーブル, ブラック)(https://amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B07BK8NH9L)」を買ってきて、上記のMakeMKVのフォーラムにあるダウングレードツールを使ってファームウェアをダウングレードするのが一番簡単な方法かと思います。私の環境でDVDFabのUHDドライブツールでファームウェアのダウングレードに成功したのは1回くらいだと思うので、MakeMKVのフォーラムにあるツールを使った方がいいと思います。

余談ですが、去年くらいに2，3台デスクトップ用の対応しているというドライブを買ってファームウェアをダウングレード、UHDのコピーができるか試したことがありますが、LG、ASUSのどちらもダメでした(それ以前にLGやASUSのドライブをデスクトップPCに組み込みたいかという話もありますが)。上記の外付けスリムドライブを買ってファームウェアのダウングレードをするのが一番無難かなと思います。
