#i am a sucker for novelizations tho

[ktempestbradford]

it is NOT normal for Jedi to become force ghosts when they die.

True!

that's like a brand new skill Yoda just unlocked.

Kinda true, though Yoda didn't unlock it!

I'm mad that I know this, and I only know it because I read the novelizations of two prequel movies, which ARE canon. And, in at least two cases, were far better than the films.

As I type this I'm now wondering if OP meant that Yoda unlocked a skill that was new to Jedi or that Yoda was the one who invented the skill. Apologies if you meant the former!

Anyway, Qui-Gon Jinn is the Jedi who discovered/invented the Force Ghost skill. In the movies you kiiinda get a hint of it. When Anakin loses his shit after his mom dies and kills everyone, there is a faint voice crying out: No, Anakin, noooooo! Then the scene cuts to Yoda, in meditation, opening his eyes like "I sense a disturbance". When I first saw the movie I thought Yoda had gotten an inkling of what Anakin had just done. But no.

What Yoda was reacting to was hearing Qui-Gon's voice. In the novelization, this is explicit. Yoda is all: I thought I heard Master Qui-Gon, but that's impossible. Once a person dies their energy is reabsorbed into the Force as a whole and the individual is gone.

Or something like that.

But hearing Qui-Gon's voice makes Yoda real curious, so he meditates more on it, investigating.

Now, I didn't read the whole of the second movie's book cuz the vast difference in quality of story between the two made me real mad. I also only read about 3 chapters of the third movie's book, which was on bookstore shelves a week or so before the movie came out (oops), and stopped because it got me excited for said movie. When the movie ruined everything good about those 3 chapters in 10 minutes, I never bothered to go back.

I told you that story to tell you this: I'm not sure how much page space was dedicated to Yoda figuring out what was going on with Qui-Gon and finally getting in contact with his ghost self and Qui-Gon explaining how and why he retained his whole personality instead of faffing off into the Force. I remember how, at the end of the third movie, when Yoda casually mentions to Obi-Wan that he's been in contact with Qui-Gon and they're exploring a cool new thing, I was like: YEAH, Y'ALL REALLY SET US UP FOR HOW FORCE GHOSTS ARE SPECIAL AND NEW, DIDN'T YA? EXCEPT YOU DIDN'T.

To me, it was a seriously wasted opportunity to expand on that as it was an interesting bit of worldbuilding. Jedis aren't supposed to be hanging out with the living. That's the opposite of "don't get attached". It is, in fact, the ultimate form of getting attached and not letting go. Again, I didn't read all of the books so I don't know, but it seemed to me that Qui-Gon held onto his personality/individuality with such great force (y'all know that pun was intended) that The Force was finally like: Fine, I didn't want you as part of my matrix, anyway. He was so concerned about and centered on Anakin that he broke the rules of his physical/material life as well as his spiritual one.

What's crazy to me is that, while this is presented as an aberration, it is not presented as A Problem. From a storytelling point of view, I see that as A Problem.

Sure, Lucas broke a LOT of his own worldbuilding with the prequels. See "everyone just kind of forgot who the Jedi were within the span of a generation" above. That shit LITERALLY makes no sense. Hell, it wasn't even a generation, it was half of one. People who were adults when the Republic fell weren't even that elderly when the first movie started. They had JUST finally dismantled the Senate. But everyone forgot the wizards with the laser swords who used to be everywhere? FOH

Becoming a Force Ghost is supposed to take work. Yoda and Qui-Gon figured it out after some years, and since Yoda said he'd teach Obi-Wan, I assume he was doing that meditative work all those years he was on Tatooine. Yet fukkin Anakin just.... did it. Showed up lookin' all like he hadn't been wearing a helmet that gave him terrible skin for 20 years. How does Anakin even know what he looks like in order to project himself like that in ghost form?

I don't agree with Lucas' choice to replace the original actor with Hayden at the end of ROTJ. Still, it as least makes a little bit of sense. Not enough, though.

Honestly, it would have been better for the Force Ghost thing to stay normal. If they needed an excuse for why Qui-Gon didn't come back as one, there could have been a conversation between Yoda and Obi-Wan where the younger Jedi remarks that he keeps expecting to see his old Master again given all that was left unfinished when he was killed. Then Yoda might say that the path to retaining your individuality when your energy returns to the Force is a difficult one, and most Jedi don't choose it and instead trust that their essence being part of the Force will be enough to provide guidance to those they left behind.

That as the double effect of showing that Yoda and Obi-Wan not only chose a difficult path, but they did so because the situation was dire. The Jedi Order? Gone. Sith have taken over everywhere. The only two Force sensitive children they can find/know about are the only hope for dismantling an empire AND restoring the Jedi? Better get to meditating!

Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.

some of my fav 'inconsistencies' between the prequel trilogy & the OT and by fav i mean i genuinely think these were good calls:

it is NOT normal for Jedi to become force ghosts when they die. that's like a brand new skill Yoda just unlocked. if Luke tried to tell ppl about Obi-wan's force ghost literally no-one, even ppl who were familiar w the Jedi when they were around, would know wtf he was talking about

R2-D2 knew everything that went down during the prequels and just opted not to tell anyone ever which is fully in-character for him

becoming a Jedi was a whole process involving 15+ years of training and formal trials to determine if you were ready for knighthood and then with Luke Yoda was just like 'yeah fuck it you're a jedi knight now. burn the jedi temple did. made up all the rules are. gives a shit who does.'

everyone just kind of forgot who the Jedi were within the span of a generation. love that.

10 people I’d like to get to know better

Tagged by @strix-x thank youuu :)

Last song: Calisto Yew’s theme from Ace Attorney Investigations 1. Listening to it as I type this, lol. From my Spotify Wrapped 2024 playlist :)

Favourite colour: don’t do this to me… many colours are beautiful… green, blue, pink, purple… thank you…

Last book: Still something I’ve gotta work on is reading more books. Last one I read was the Doctor Who Rogue novelization! That was enjoyable, I liked the extra scenes and backstory it added :)

Last movie: Uhhh hmm I don’t see movies all that often… I’m unsure, but by tomorrow the answer will be Wicked?

Last show: Dandadan season 1 finale… which, tbh, I hadn’t realized was the season finale until after I watched the episode lol! Very looking forward to season 2 tho :D

Sweet/spicy/savoury: Hmm probably savoury? Sweet is also good, tho I think there is definitely a thing as too sweet… and as for spicy? I like some spicy stuff even tho it may burn my mouth after loll

Relationship status: single as can be 😽✌️ alas

Last thing I googled: movie theatre tickets lol

Current obsession(s): Dandadan beloved omg… I haven’t watched a lot of anime, but I’m starting to! Grateful netflix recommended this to me lol, it’s so. It’s got everything you could ask for. Wacky, funny, has a lot of heart with the characters… great music… and maybe I’m a little bit of a sucker for high school students getting pulled into crazy adventures. Momo and Okarun are so cute too… sillies <3

Fire Emblem Heroes isn’t going anywhere for me… with Book 9 having a law theme, it excellently combines with my love for Ace Attorney, and I love Rune already!!

Then ofc Ace Attorney… had a blast playing the Investigations Collection, and I’m continuing to catch up (the timing is almost never right for me to watch live) on Mark Ota’s streams of TGAAC, which are always a ton of fun :D

Then I am also trying to now and then write stuff for my own ocs too… I don’t talk about them enough… but I love them very much, please do know <3 Maybe I show a bit of favouritism for Willow and Pyg, but hey, they are the main characters :3

People to tag: ack my least favourite part, I always fear I’ll forget someone!

@rosymaraschino (I want to return the favour, I appreciate it whenever you tag me in one of these kinds of things! :) )

@ actually anyone else, my mind is blank </3

BLESS ME FATHER, FOR I HAVE SINNED—

so. last month. I was reading a bunch of keigo higashino's novels because I'm a sucker for mysteries, I love the mystery genre so much. I am so bad at writing in that genre, but I will eat a mystery story like it's cake.

I was sooooo in love with the detective galileo books that I wanted to take a stab at the mystery genre again and. well. I did not accomplish what I set out to do, but I did make some OCs I intend to put into situations. regional folklore horror meets mystery solving? we'll see!

for now, it's about a guy with a neck scar, a priest he's in a situationship with (they've been friends since childhood and it's very. hm), and a third guy who's not really a guy but maybe half a ghost. there is. a murder to solve.

neck scar guy (lorenzo 'insoy') is not confessing to a murder here, he was confessing to throwing cold water into the face of a woman who had been treating his mother badly for like, a YEAR, and he finally snapped and told her to fuck off in front of a whole crowd of people. unfortunately that woman gives major cash every month to the church. so. as you can see: a problem. he'd do it again, tho.

on his way home, he's going to come across a body in a field.

A real first kiss (Matt Murdock x F!Reader / College AU)

Summary: You tell Matt no one has ever kissed you out of love. He makes sure to correct that.

Wordcount: 2.5K ish

Warnings/Tags: No use of y/n, reader uses she/her pronouns (no physical descriptions aside from that), college AU, Matt and reader are both in law school, some angst, something that could be read as dissociation (reader feels disconnected to an experience), reader is not straight? (no sexual orientation specified but there's an interaction that is not heterosexual / only kissing tho), comfort at the end (bc I am a sucker for happy endings lol)

A/N: This was oddly personal, and while it’s a little short it was very therapeutic to write. Pretty much wanted to do something that related to being a late bloomer (like I have been my whole life) plus some fluff (: Please take into account that this wasn't proof read and that English isn't my first language; if you happen to see any mistakes, do let me know so I can fix them. Hope you enjoy this!

For most people, their first kiss was usually a memory of their early teenage years, maybe even a childhood one. You could recall the stories your friends have told you. For some it was born out of sunny days during summer camp where connections were born after swimming in a lake all afternoon, quickly followed by laughter scattered into open fields or forests between games of capture the flag. That turned into late-night conversations, sneaking out from each other’s cabin after curfew to meet under the starry sky. 

Or perhaps for some it started out as a hallway crush. The kind that you would reveal only to your closest friends, and you all hid under silly codenames. If you locked eyes during free period, it stirred up giggling. And guess what?It turned out they’d been watching you all along. After gathering all your courage, a study date would turn into something more once your knuckles brushed accidentally.

The list could go and on, their stories all very innocent and sweet, most likely a terrible kisses, but nevertheless worth remembering.

If you added to that all the romantic books you’d read, movies, and what not, there were plenty more stories you could think of, from childhood friends turned to high school sweethearts or plenty about games of truth or dare or spin the bottle. Reality or fiction, first kisses tended to be meaningless beyond their experience value, with the rare exception of those who actually found love through them.

Throughout the years, you had patiently waited for your turn. You didn’t have many expectations of how it would actually happen, you just held on for the moment to finally occur. How difficult could it be? It literally seemed to happen to everyone around you. So you just waited, surely things would flow naturally, right?

Middle school rolled by, which was fine. A lot of people need more time to grow into themselves, it would eventually happen, you were sure. Maybe it wasn’t going to be one of those awkward extended pecks that your friends said seemed to last forever. They insisted it was for the best, no one really knows what they’re doing when they still haven’t even fully hit puberty. If you had your first kiss a little later in life, there was a higher chance it wasn’t going to be completely awful. You could deal with that; high school was supposed to be a more exciting chance to expand your circle. 

Boy were you wrong.

By this point, it was possible that maybe you had watched too many rom-coms or read one too many romance novels. You’re sure now that it helped in no way to ease your expectations. Seriously how difficult could it be? You saw it all. Your best friends got into relationships, went on dates, celebrated anniversaries, and had their hearts broken, only to survive them and start all over again. Kids in your classes, the kind to never speak their minds, suddenly grew into themselves and found their people too. 

During lunchtime, couples sat next to each other, holding hands in the cafeteria. Field trips meant seeing impromptu make-out sessions in the back of the school bus. Your friends received proposals for homecoming and eventually proms; always happy to invite you to come along when you didn’t receive any. At the occasional party you did attend, corners turned into your safe spot as you watched as others were approached. Not once did anyone come to strike up a conversation, to casually sweep you off your feet. It only led you to wonder if you were doing something, anything, wrong.

Love seemed to be everywhere, just never in your life.

You’d be lying to say it didn’t hurt your self-esteem. How come it hadn’t happened to you? Were you really that unattractive or uninteresting or whatever it was for no one to be interested in you? Your friends, or anyone who found out, always assured you saying you weren’t the problem, but the evidence seemed to point elsewhere. 

You manages to endure a little longer. After your high school graduation, the prospect of college lifted you spirits. With all the people that attended such a big school, you’d be sure to meet new people or at least get your mind off it.

It was even worse. Nothing could’ve prepared you for the embarrassment inexperience brought upon you. At some point you just started to lie your way through games of never have I ever; because let’s face it, admitting to a dozen strangers that you’ve never even held hands romantically wasn’t how you pictured spending your Friday and Saturday evenings. And that wasn’t even the worst part. Opening bathroom doors to couples straight up fucking or having to leave your dorm when your roommate brought a date every other week made you feel majority behind.

After spending your freshman year sulking, you decided it had been enough. At this point, you knew you were a late bloomer, but c’mon, those “the right person will find you when you least expect it” pep talks were starting to feel like bullshit. For fucks sake, it didn’t even matter anymore if they actually liked you, you just wanted to get it over with.

Matters were taken into your own hands on a Saturday night. The crowded spaces did you no favors to appease your social anxiety. As you walked around, room after room was filled to the brim with strangers, your friends nowhere to be found. The floor of the frat house they had dragged you to remained particularly sticky everywhere you went, especially in the kitchen where you had stopped to refill the red plastic cup in your hands.

As you poured rum into your half full glass of coke, a familiar voice called your name from across the room, “Oh my God, is that really you?”

And so, greetings were exchanged, as well as short debriefings of what you’d been up to since graduating. For all the time you’d been at Columbia, that was the first time you’d run into someone from your hometown.

Soon enough you were sitting in a half-empty deck, laughing and reminiscing about middle school. The green eyes that looked at you weren’t full of love or lust, but had a strange tinge of nostalgia. If you were being honest, it was one of those old friendships that stood had faded into nothing more than an acquaintance, and you suddenly knew you had an opportunity laid at your feet.

In all honesty, you could’ve gone simply with catching up and then left to look for one of your friends. Looking at him, you recalled all the times you joked around in Literature class or the times his parents gave you a ride home before you inevitably grew apart in high school. There was no spark when your knees brushed in the small sofa you were sitting in; but there was no discomfort either, so against your better judgement you decided to go for it.

By all means, it was a good kiss, at least that’s how you remember it now. At the time, there wasn’t anything else to compare it to, but none of the complaints you’d heard before happened. There wasn’t any unnecessary clash of teeth, it didn’t feel like he was shoving his tongue down your throat, he kept his hands safely and softly cupping your cheeks and neck. According to all the standards of all of your friends, this was an A+ experience.

By the time you were heading back to your dorm, you found yourself finally able to check having your first kiss off your bucket list. A sudden feeling of pride ran through your body as you walked through campus. Finally.

Unfortunately, though, after you’d washed your face and were sharing the news over the phone with your best friend, you realized that while everything had seemingly gone smoothly, you still felt the odd knot inside your chest. Like nothing had really changed. It was hard to put into words, how your body had felt out of its own, like you were playing a character as your lips met his, or maybe it was just your mind playing tricks on you. Because for some reason, you hadn’t really felt there when it happened. It just sort of seemed to occur.

“You’re kidding, right?” Matt’s said flat out, although you knew his deadpan tone was just for show.

Letting out a giggle you said, “Why would I lie about that?”

“That jerk was your first kiss?”

“He wasn’t a jerk, we were friends in mid-” you tried to defend the choices of you past self between bursts of laughter, but he didn’t let you continue. His sour expression growing by the second.

“He’s a conservative bigot, a Republican-governor-wannabe, how is he not–”

“He wasn’t back then!” Raising your tone, you barely held it in before your laughter burst out again at the same time Matt’s did, because yeah he was right – that dude did end up becoming a jerk. Except it didn’t really matter because you were never actually into him, and you can’t blame yourself for who your middle school classmates end up becoming.

“But he is now.”

You both kept laughing, shoulders brushing as you sat on the bed on his side of the dorm room. Foggy had ditched you both for tonight, opting out of your usual weekend hangout in favor of a date with someone called Marci, or so he’d said.

“Okay, okay, fiiiine, I’ll give you that,” you said in your defense, lightly shoving his shoulder with your own. “It doesn’t matter anyway. I didn’t actually like him.”

“Wait…” Matt said scrunching his nose in disbelief, his laughter slowly dying down, his face dead serious for real this time. “What are you talking about, why'd you kiss him then?”

With his face suddenly turned in your direction, you felt a your cheeks grow warm. “I guess… I just wanted to get it over with.”

An apologetic smile was what he offered in return, with no real judgment behind it. “Well, it should’ve been more special ... silly as it may be, you know... not just anyone.”

His words stop you in your tracks for a split second, a bittersweet feeling creeping up your chest. You’d never actually considered it, but in the years that had passed since that night, you didn’t recall that any other single kiss you’d received had actually been born from real love or any true feelings at all. 

There was that one time you hit it off with someone at a friend’s birthday. The light conversation between the colorful lights had you blushing more than usual. Their body was warm against yours when their lips were pressed to your own. The taste of their lip balm was sweet, almost sugary on your tongue, but it was all a spur-of-the-moment situation. While, unlike the first time, where you’d felt disconnected from your body, this time you’d actually enjoyed it. There was a warm feeling, maybe happiness, but definitely not affection and surely not love.

Then there were some other guys, whom you had very much liked. They listened to you and talked eagerly with you every time you bumped into each other, yet never actually asked you out. They flirted with you or had their friends act as their wingmen to eventually end up making out with you during random parties, but never – you realized – not one single time had anyone ever been interested in you affectionately, with tenderness or sincerity.

As if on cue, as if he could somehow sense what you were thinking, Matt broke the sudden silence that had grown in the room. “I didn’t mean to overstep I–”

You shook your head, breaking free from your thoughts, “No, no, I just… I don’t think I’ve ever had a…” Your voice quieted down before you could finish the sentence. While you weren’t ashamed of any of your experiences anymore, you couldn’t quite seem to get rid of the lingering pain that followed all of them.

“A real connection?”

Your eyes darted up to look at Matt; red glasses were shielding his eyes from yours, but did not cover the furrow of concern between his brows. It wasn’t a secret to Matt that you’d never been in a relationship. You’d told him at some point, during one of the many late-night conversations you enjoyed having. He’d found it hard to believe, truly, how anyone would pass on the chance of earning your trust. The thing was, anyone willing to pass on your endless compassion, your particular sense of humor, the softness of your skin, or the brilliance of your mind was a jackass, and he sure as hell wasn’t one.

He’d known you all of law school, at least all year and a half you’d both taken of it, although to him it might as well be a lifetime because he couldn’t quite picture a time when he didn’t recognize the sound of your heartbeat by memory. Right from the day you sat next to him in the Civil Procedures course, it took him no time to think of an excuse to talk to you, ignoring Foggy – who was also sitting next to him – to ask you if you’d care to study together someday.

Here and now, your very same heartbeat thumped loudly mere inches away from him. The opportunity he had once longed for.

“C’mon man, you gotta tell her at some point” was what Foggy had told him a few hours prior, before he’d left you two alone on purpose. “She obviously likes you, for real. It’s time.”

“I don’t know, Foggy. I don’t want to pressure her, what if she doesn’t want to be anything more than friends? I–”

“Oh my God, Matt! Are you being serious?” He said in a mock tone, “You don’t want to pressure her? She has completely memorized the way you take your tea and somehow prepares it perfectly in the shitty dining hall microwave. She genuinely prefers spending every Saturday night holed up in our dorm or out at Josie’s or pretty much anywhere just to sit next to you. She literally looks at you with stars in her eyes.”

Chuckling, Matt did his best to play coy, “Well, I can’t know about that last part–”

“You know what I mean. You have to tell her, tonight.” Foggy insisted as he made his way out of the dorm room; he pointed his finger at Matt before he fully headed out, “God forbids you actually pursue something that might make you happy. I’ll be over at Marci’s, don’t wait up for me…”

So yeah, Matt knew what he had to do. “I think I’d like to object to that… if that’s okay with you.”

At your silence– aside from the way your heartbeat continued to pick up – he proceeded, “You don’t really think there isn’t a single soul who’d honestly care for you, do you?”

His hand slowly moved from where it rested atop his lap. His knuckles gently brushed your knee and grazed your hand, guiding themselves with the line of your arm all the way up until they reached your shoulder. A small smile grew on your face and quickly turned into laughter. “Matt, are you serious?”

“I’m sorry it took me this long to tell you.” In a second, he mirrored your laughter, nodding his head. He felt the warmth of your fingers cover his other hand. “Is it okay if I– can I kiss you?”

If you recalled correctly, no one had ever asked you that, in all of your lifetime. Surely, for you, this was a first of its kind.

As soon as you said yes, dexterous fingers slid around your waist, gently coaxing you towards him, before taking off his glasses. Your body didn’t resist complying, the warmth of Matt’s chest as inviting as the feeling of his heartbeat against yours, your legs at ease around his own. 

The stubble across his neck gently brushed against your fingers, a tingling sensation that almost sent shivers down your spine. This close, there was no escaping the soft smell of soap and cinnamon from his skin or the way his breath fanned across your face. Warmth grew inside your chest as you felt the soft brush of his lips on yours, almost melting together. It was slow and languid, much like honey trickling down your tongue. You were sure it could be just as sweet too, a kind of feeling you had never felt before. 

A feeling you guessed was reciprocated if the rumble that reverberated through Matt’s throat was anything to go by. He couldn’t tell why he had waited so long to do this; all of his excuses gone the second the softest skin of your mouth met his. As far as he knew, he could stay with you like this for hours. He didn’t want to pressure you– not even when your breathing got a little faster or when your lips parted oh-so-gently to let him seek out your taste– but this much he could do.

The only reason he found to pull back was to ask you, catching his breath and brushing his thumb over your lower lip, “Does this mean I can take you out tomorrow night? We can do this properly.”

You smiled to yourself, “Only if you kiss me like that again.”

If you're here, thank you so much for reading!!! Please please please let me know what you thought - all feedback is appreciated- and consider reblogging if possible (:

Hello! I came from wattpad and ao3, I really enjoy your Pink and Gold Skies book, I just noticed you also read TSaTS! tell me, how was your experience? For me, TSaTS was a nice experience! Tho I'm too shy to talk with Stygian😭

HIII!!!! I KNOW U!!!!! TY FOR READING PINK AND GOLD SKIES!!

Reading TSaTS was AMAZING for me. I fell in love with the writing style, and the plot was just.. *mwah* zeff's kiss. For anyone who hasnt read The Sun and The Sea by @stygianheart on AO3.. GO READ IT!!!!

Although if I'm honest the 1 part that I really like the most was chapter 5 where we got to learn more about Ryan. (as you can see, i am unwell about him) AndHelmeppo as a dynamic. RYMEPPO YEAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Chapter 11 and 12 was DEVASTATING!!!!!!!!!!!!! cant remember how many times i cried but it was a lot.........

Anyway! *claps hands together melodramatically*

The internal conflict Kel (stygian!) portrays in Koby is so painfully accurate, and I find each character to be so well written- but even deeper and more alluring!

Koby is.. HOPELESS. But that's fine, we love him. Either way, I was on the edge of my seat at the end of each chapter. Emotions are expertly woven between words, and the pure force of it had me at the first chapter. Unlike some KobyLu fic's, Kel didn't portray Koby as a damsel in distress, an UWU boy (im sorry) or a big StRoNg Chad- they found his actual character, a kindhearted, selfless boy who feels pain and anger and who sheds tears for those who'd been wronged.

I cant even describe how much i love TSaTS.... sjsjsjsjsjsjs

RYAN BRYAN. MY #1 BOY.

I cant stress how MUCH I love him. He has a character that is so compelling and utterly stunning. He's a broken man, and noone can deny that. But he found beauty amidst pain- something im a sucker for.... Ryan feels like a canon character, ISTG!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE HIM!!

Anyway, TSaTS is better than most NOVELS ive read. Its a work of art thats totally underrated. Like, its better than some arcs in One Piece by a landslide.

call me biased since im a friend of Kel's, but KEL IS MY IDOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dont be shy about talking to them, their awesome and love listening to people talk. They have a Discord server (which I am in as PROUD RYAN SIMP) so check that out, maybe!

tyty for the askkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lucius Quinctilius was not, by nature, a reflective man, so perhaps it was just as well that the Dictator’s men gave him little time to contemplate his fate.

Cass Morris, From Unseen Fire (Book 1 of the Aven Cycle trilogy.)

I am sucker for novels with a banger of an opening and this is definitely one!!!

Welcome to my new obsession, a fantasy trilogy set in a fantasy world based on Ancient Rome.

Not just that, but characters are also clearly inspired by actual Romans - I saw Dictator Ocella and went “OMG it’s Sulla!”

The two protagonists of the novel - Sempronius and Latona - are clearly inspired by Augustus and Livia. Let’s hope that this world’s Octavia (known as Vibia Sempronia Melanis) gets to avoid this world’s Antony. 😝

You can’t tell from this tumblr but I’ve been obsessed with Ancient Rome and its successor the Byzantine Empire since childhood (the a Roman Empire is my Roman Empire) and late republic/early empire is my favorite period plus I think Augustus was a bona fide genius to set up a system that lasted in one form or another for over a 1000 years and Livia utterly fascinating and just had to have been so insanely smart.

So this is a series designed for meeeee!!!

A word of warning tho - unlike a lot of books I mention this is neither YA nor romance centric (though there is romance) so if that’s not your bag this might not be for you.

[doomednarrative]

Kiriya for the character asks!

First impression:

This was my actual first impression of him so I'm just gonna stick it here lol

Impression now:

FUCK ME WHERE TO BEGIN!!!! I am SUCH a sucker for characters who are liars, either as a defense mechanism or just guys who cannot be honest for the life of them even when they try, and by god did Kiriya fit that bill to make me obsessed with him in every way. Here's a guy who cares so much and who told the truth before and it backfired so horribly and hurt so bad that he cannot make that same mistake again and so he continues to push away the people he gives a shit about by putting up a lying face in order to protect them. And it gets him killed!! And then he comes back and he still has problems being honest about stuff but god if he doesnt make his actual feelings known in other ways and I'm just. He's such a character. For as long of an abscense as he had in the show he leaves Such an impact and even his missing piece in the narrative serves to drive it forward in very important ways. He means the world to me I could talk about him forever, very close to being my favorite guy in all of Kamen Rider so far.

Favorite moment:

Augh. God. Too many. Really big fan of him beating Kuroto's ass to make a vaccine gashat tho that was a good damn episode all around. Also not in the series but in the novel he has a moment having to hold himself back from going after Emu's dad and punching him and I was rooting for him to do it tbh.

Idea for a story:

MANY TBH...I was/am working on a kiriparaemu series that takes place during/after the movies and the novel and one of them involves him and Parad talking about their respective places in Emu's lives while they play video games together, I was enjoying writing that one

Unpopular opinion:

None I guess? I agree with most people about him.

Favorite relationship:

Its kiriemu have we Seen my account lmao. But also very fond of him and Parad in any manor too

Favorite headcanon:

I like to think out of everyone in the main cast he's the best at cooking. He just has that energy to me tbh I think he'd learn at some point to impress people

@astra-blade-13 I accidentally deleted your ask while trying to answer it, but I at least copied it

astra-blade-13 asked: Please tell me about your Scáthach headcanons, this guy deserves more love

I apologize for the delay, as I was on a trip and didn’t have time to answer it before. Thank you so much tho! I really wasn’t expecting anyone to even reach out and ask my opinion on Scáthach as I said that on a whim, but I really appreciate!

This post might be a bit long, and these are just purely headcanons on my part, so none of this is exactly canon as I am just trying to fill in the gaps (also this is me talking a bit about other characters that I have headcanons for)

Scáthach, I’m pretty sure, is the more tame of the Ayra twins, so majority of the time he’s trying to get Larcei out of trouble because of how impulsive she is

I know it’s canon that Iuchar and Iucharba are head-over-heels for Larcei, but to me, they’re both bi and are ALSO head-over-heels for Scáthach. Tho they’re both really difficult to flirty with, as Larcei would probably yell and fight them as a rejection, while Scáthach would either ignore them or try to be nice on a rejection

I made a post a while back about Scáthach having a crush on Oifey, and that was his gay awakening

I actually don’t have a headcanon for his sexuality (although I do lean a bit more on him being bisexual) and to me it feels right for him to be unlabeled. Tbh i don’t think he would care

Other side ships for me would be Lana and Julia, aka childhood friends to lovers/princess & bodyguard

He has relationship experience, and has dated Lana before and dated Julia for a while, and still treats them as close friends even after their breakups

He is a BIG Lana/Julia shipper, and once he realizes that they have mutual feelings, he makes it his personal mission to get them together

Larcei to me feels like she’s very expressive, and wears her emotions very clearly on her face. Scá, on the other hand, tries his best to hide them and doesn’t want anyone to know what he’s feeling, especially when he’s either feeling depressed or is showing emotions that he’s not used to. This occurred a lot as he was more and more active on the battlefield

He especially tries to hide his troubles thoughts from Larcei and Shannan, as he feels they have more pressing matters than him

Relationship wise, I like to think he’s very smooth, and actually knows how to properly flirt. It’s not anything dramatic or over-the-top, but his flirting is genuine and it’s only to those he’s close enough to want a relationship with

He’s definitely more comfortable around women, and he finds it easier to be friends with them

He knows how to use a bow (somewhat) from Lester since they grew up together, and he and Diarmuid frequently spar together. He also somehow managed to be their wingman since he was always in the middle of those two, and he’s happy to see that his efforts payed off.

He crochés. Idk why but to me it’s just something that he would do? It’s just a calming hobby of his and he likes giving his works to those close to him

He’s a romantic at heart, and a sucker for romance novels.

He’s just very calm and patient? Out of the Tirnanog gang, he’s the one that doesn’t panic much in a stressful situation. You would believe it would be either Seliph or Lana, but in reality, it’s him

He’s a very hard person to anger and rile up, and it takes a LOT to do so. Unless you threaten to hurt his friends, and that’s when you’re dead

The update was so wonderful! Mel is such a devious little darling. Her calling MC out for them “casting stones in glass houses” with her relationship to Kas made me die it was soooo good 😂

I am wondering, if you are able to humor me: I’ve been a reader for a while now and I have to ask to prepare myself emotionally- is it possible for our DC and Mathias to have a happy ending together? Or will it always no matter what route end either sad or tragically? DC has just been through so much and deserves to live a life with some measure of satisfaction and be with the one they love😭 call me a sucker for liking that sort of thing, but I just want to brace myself if all roads lead to heartache in the end.

haha awww I'm so so glad you liked Mel! Actually, I've been getting so much great feedback for her; I'm so happy ❤️✨ hehe thank you for playing!

Oh, and I understand your worry. I don't like sad, tragic endings either, and something I've decided since day one was that none of my stories (being them my books or visual novels) would ever have those traditional Bad Endings.

That said, the ending I'm planning for LtGBtK won't be fairy-tale-like XD Instead, I'll make sure it's as happy as the circumstances allow it to be...and the player *wants* it to be. wink wink

I DO think the ending will manage to be both surprising, flexible, and satisfactory, tho. Let's see A_A teehee >8)))) Thanks for your question. ♥

5 and 17 for the Doctor Who asks???

5. When you could have one trip in the TARDIS where would you go?

Ooooh, too many places, too many time periods... I think that I'd love to go back to one of those moments in recorded human history where a supernova was seen clearly in the night sky. I always found those to be fascinating. Or I'd use it to go back and see one of the places I visited in my childhood in Europe, but see it back in its glory days. Not Pompeii tho, the Doctor has a bad time there, haha.

17. What is your least favorite episode, and why?

The Girl in the Fireplace.

I've never liked this episode, even in those rare moments years ago before I really started to watch when I'd catch an episode. I could go into why I hate it, which is a long list, but I just... I don't feel like pissing people off today.

The only saving grace was the clockwork robots, I am a sucker for those, and the ship using human parts to repair it because this is actually a reference to a previous story from Classic Who (that was made ten times more terrifying in the novelization.)

I also hate Let's Kill Hit/ler.

I'm not a fan of how Moffat writes River (I actually love her in her first two episodes, but afterwards, she comes off as one-note and boring when he writes her. She's amazing in her audio stories and when Alex Kingston writes her, so she's saved by those), and this episode makes her insufferable. Also, the plot is just... it's bad. It's got something going for it, but then it's just bleh. The saving grace? Eleven being stupidly over the top about dying, kudos to him, exactly what I expect from the Doctor.

Both of these are Moffat episodes. :\

Hi there! I’m a guy who loves fandoms, books, video games and fan fictions.

I’m also a writer, and I’m currently writing my first novel (even tho i’m writing in italian, ‘cause I’m italian).

Well, I’d like to start writing fan fiction, because I’m a sucker for it.

I will gladly accept any request, especially xreaders and ships, as long as it’s not smut or anything involving violent themes such as torture.

I will partake in many fandoms, I think I’ll make a list of it later.

I am a big fan of Percy Jackson tho.

I will gladly accept fluff and angst, and I will absolutely write Lgbtq+ themes, if anything, I’d love it.

I don’t know what else to say right now, as I’m not very familiar with this, I hope we’ll have a fun time and that you’ll give me a chance, I’ll do my best!

[twilightofthe]

okay i put all my cranky thoughts into a separate post that's now drafted and it made me feel better so i'll be able to watch this episode now lol but if it gets me worked up again i'm posting the rant i'm sorry i cannot be helped or changed or saved <3

ANYWAY AHSOKA EP 2

also i forgot to say so last episode but kevin kiner my ABSOLUTE BELOVED the return of the king is real so happy to have you here my dude the ending and full theme was absolutely gorgeous

anywayyyyyy so i am guessing sabine did not make like satine and survived her shish kabobing

well there's ahsoka

oh yeah there's bean she's fine she'll be fine xD

damn filoni really gave more handwaving to having a character survive a major impalement vs me twisting myself into fucking knots writing anakin getting run through lmao

ahsoka sorry but actually i'm gonna blame u for this you still kinda seem like a mess and i don't think you were a very good teacher to sabine and now ur dropping back in on her when she's convenient to you?

well at least we know why she's so adamant against training baby yoda lol

ope here's goth girl and the fuuuuck is his NAME again i keep calling him fucking bryan

i like the fancy sithy-looking sundial tho

pfff second ep is "toil and trouble" guess we're getting witchy!

OH YEAH WAS SABINE'S KITTY OKAY

THEY BETTER BE OKAY

I SWEAR TO GOD

yea ahsoka what happened to showing up in the nick of time and saving kanan and ezra from inquisitors in rebels u were slowwww girlie

OK GOOD THE CAT IS OKAY

that's all that matters

ope one more droid hanging around ezra's place

GIRL UR SITTING UP ALREADY?!

GIRL HOW CAN U BREATHE

we do love the mechanic girl of my heart

sabine does love her explosions

no huyang hera just likes explosions

sabine works best under explosive pressure we LOVE HER

ope back to corellia i guess? we can reuse the old solo sets?

sabine

impaled

"but she's not the one who needs to hear it right now" ahhh there's the sabine and hera dialogue. ugh but i'm still not used to natasha and mary i can just hear tiya and vanessa doing it instead :(

WHY DO Y'ALL KEEP MAKING SABINE AND AHSOKA ANGRY EXES TF

"ancient ppl from a distant galaxy" waaaaaaait are they bringing in those eu dudes

no wait i think i remember something about these guys that was mention as the big bad in the canceled animated rebels sequel

or it could just be the chiss lmao

that could be it too, makes sense why they'd want thrawn

ok that is some real cool galactic map visuals i am an absolute sucker for a good starmap

ok but wait how the fuck did y'all get a map to thrawn anyway did the space whales write it

also sorry morgan but i don't personally think thrawn would go for u nothing personal you are hot but you don't quite seem his type

waaaait is fucking thrawn gonna have force sensitivity now THAT would be absolutely hilarious and he'd hate it so much

who's marrok i have no memory

y'all you can't just make thrawn work for you didn't he only work with the empire cuz he had to because it would advantage his people somehow (has read zero thrawn novels and only seen rebels)

please tell me sabine is in the fucking vents of ahsoka's ship

THERE'S THE GHOST WHERE IS CHOPPER

I AM NO LONGER FUCKING ASKING

okay so i think my issue with Mary is she doesn't have any of the same authority and purpose Hera's meant to hav

CHOPPER

CHOPPER

MY MURDERBOT

MY SON

MY ANGEL MY EVERYTHING

Anyway

oh yeah harping in that the new republic is a total fustercluck

ew a capitalist

bro you know hera used to steal from people like you for the rebellion

sdlkfjsdk omg sabine's mom needs to talk to the teacher to keep her from getting expelled

but also y'all sabine is like 25-30 right now she's not a kid

@ ahsoka bitch you have no fuckin clue what you're doing doooon't talk about readiness

y'know maybe the imperial era just advanced medicine so later impalements don't kill people

oh oh so it IS ezra's!

sabine go find luke he'd love to have you

STOP WITH THE GAY DIALOGUE

ok so yeah she likely doesn't have force sensitvity

goddammit huyang neverMIND

so sabine IS force sensitive :) and kanan and ezra just never brought it up :) great :)

hera my beautiful ship nerd ily

HI YOU WATCHED NIMONA???????? WHAT DID YOU THINK(SRY IF I MISSED WHEN YOU SAID THAT) <- THE GRAPHIC NOVEL IS LIKE MY FAVORITE THING EVER AND I AM FERAL OVER THE MOVIE EVEN W ALL THE MAJOR DIFFERENCES

Lol I haven't discussed it yet, I passed out like right after watching cause I was super tired 😅 and I haven't read the graphic novel so the only context I have is with the movie!

I thought it was very cute!!! The animation was fucking PHENOMENAL, like holy lord the fluidity of the motions and the COLORS and the lighting????? Please I'm a slut for good animation. The expressions too were on point.

The soundtrack? *Chefs Kiss* big fan of them using Dope Saint Jude in the opening scene with Nimona.

And the voice acting was absolutely wonderful, 10/10

Plus I'm a sucker for a good gay romance that isn't the main plot but is a huge part of the characters stories

My biggest (and really only) complaint is that the pacing just felt bad. It moved very quickly and it made me fall out of the story a little bit. I think it just needed like an extra 15 minutes of buildup specifically of Nimona and Ballister's relationship.

Overall tho I very much enjoyed it 💜

Jae's Asian Drama Masterlist

a list of all the asian shows I've ever watched (competed, we don't talk about the ones I've been meaning to finish for the past two years), not including any animation

all of them have some form of romance because at my heart I am a slut for a good romance, colored ones are those that changed my brain chemistry

Korean:

Romance is a Bonus Book (my first ever Kdrama and the first one I saw on this list, will always hold a special place in my heart)

Hotel Del Luna (iu my beloved, it did make me very sad at some points, but the dynamic between the main characters so so so good, jealous jang manwol is the best thing)

Light On Me

The Tasty Florida

To My Star

You Make Me Dance

Mr. Heart

Color Rush

Doom at Your Service (I say this is my favorite Kdrama, but honestly it has some really heavy competition. I am not above saying im a little bit attracted to whenever doom fucks someone up ok)

Wish You: Your Melody From My Heart

Kiss Goblin

Where Your Eyes Linger

Run On (its just so sweet y'all, one of the most refreshing shows I've ever seen in my life, the characters feel so real and the relationships are amazing)

Semantic Error (this is where the heavy competition is, both the movie and series versions are insanely good, I just can't recommend it enough)

Tinted With You

A-Teen (currently rewatching it with my best friend, is the essential hs Kdrama, explores so many of the problems that teens face without minimizing them, really embraces that lonely/scary feeling of being in such a turbulent time in your life)

Roommates of Poongduck 304

Business Proposal (the romcom of all time, if you are someone who enjoys a good trope or a well done cliche this is the place for you, it will make you laugh so hard and feel so much)

Our Dating Sim (aljslkasjfkd so so cute, very much Semantic Error vibes and I love that, loved the dynamic and characters so much)

The Eighth Sense (yes give me the good mental health representation, women friends, and cute relationships)

Dream (movie, watched it just for IU tbh)

Thai:

Love in the Air

Kinnporsche (this gave me indescribable brainworms but I could never explain it)

The Eclipse (the series really benefited from how comfortable first&khaotung are with each other, honestly they are friendship goals, but the show itself really tackles some great issues in the schooling system and how they relate to oppression overall)

Until We Meet Again

Between Us (yeah Tumblr really won with this one, I saw one too many winteam posts and had no choice, I do love a relationship driven show and the way the show pulled in discussions about trauma and family struggles was wonderful, I have never seen more of a middle child than win)

Bad Buddy (what can I say, once again the actors have insane chemistry and their comfort with each other really shows on screen, also nanon really is just a powerhouse actor, its sort of a modern Romeo and Juliet but has the most open & honest communication in any media I've ever seen)

Cutie Pie

Cutie Pie 2 You

My School President (may have changed me as a person? I don't even know how to describe how important this show has become to me)

Bed Friend (loved the characters, idk if it gave me worms yet tho)

Only Friends (at my heart i am a sucker for anything First & Khao are in)

Japanese:

Takara-kun & Amagi-kun

My Love Mix-up! (Keita Hatsukoi)

My Beautiful Man (Utsukushii Kare)

My Beautiful Man 2

Taiwanese:

Be Loved in House: I Do

HIStory 3: Trapped

Because of You 2020

Chinese:

The Untamed (I don't even know how to explain the brainworms this show and the novel it's based on has given me, but we do love a fun period piece)
