@lesbianvisas happy birth to your revamp... we stan a lesbian icon

[etoilebinaire]

you mentioned you could write an essay about the meaning in that piece with the flowers... i love symbolism... hi.. you don't have to answer this and you certainly don't have to write an essay if you don't want to BUT if you have anything you would like to share about the meaning and symbolism for that piece i would LOVE to hear!!! and about jess's emotions in each moment maybe?

!!! Thank you!! :’) I’m so glad you like it cause I honestly spend a while on it! You are so kind 💕

When I saw your prompt I immediately just googled flower meanings cause I knew I had to come up w something interesting for Jess, and I knew that I wanted it to be kinda sad cause Revan has always been a Tragic character imo.

I always feel so pretentious when talking about symbolism sajfsdkd and Im afraid its kinda obvious but I really thought about this so.. here we go.The first one is shortly after a battle at Cathar during the Mandalorian wars. Like Juhani, I can imagine that a lot of kids were absolutely star-struck when they saw jedi protecting them. So yeah, “Protection against evil”, cause Rev was one of the few to actively want to protect the Cathar. The Blue means peace and tranquility, which is obviously true for the Cathar, but also for Revan. My Revan really believes in destiny and that some things are just supposed to be. And she was supposed to protect these people, and when she ‘fulfilled that destiny’ (however you want to interpret that) she was finally at peace with herself. Also finally stepping away from the inaction of the jedi council brought a certain tranquility to her.

I have honestly not decided when the second one is, whether before her fall or after. But it signifies her ability to “sense” what is supposed to happen (like rainfall). Jess knows that bad things will happen(her inevitable fall, the emperor, the wars that never seem to stop), and her way of dealing with that is to protect herself and isolate as much as she can. The white colour signifies purity and innocence, but those are all things she needs to leave behind if she wants to survive the storm. She knows that there is no place for such things in her life now, but will still curl around any little moment of purity and innocence she can get. 

The last one, “Forsaken or forgotten love and affection” is the one that made me choose an anemone flower for Jess. It’s canon that Revan and Malak were really close before everything went downhill, so that’s also true for Jess. I felt like the game brushes over their past and just uses Malak as the Big Bad Villain who Has To Be Killed(at least. thats how i remember it), but it must have been more than just that. Revan might not remember anything, but Malak has always been by her side so I think we should collectively be sadder about it all. I sketched the lines before finishing Ivy and Twine, but it’s kind of like the scene where Revan finds pictures in Malak’s old apartment. So this is some stray photograph of them together when they were padawans (Rev is a rebel and wears her braid in her ponytail). And I didn’t want to make it too sad cause I was already emotional about them but anemone flowers are commonly used in funerals too……. The red signifies passion(eeyyy cause they were siths, but also cause they were just very passionate people), true love(either platonic or romantic tbh cause honestly rev and alek belonged together before it all went to shit) and courage(defying the jedi council to save people, not caring about their relationship technically being forbidden,etc). 

I’m sorry if this is kinda rambly :’) I promise my actual essays are more coherent than this. And thank you so much for your interest in Jess it means a lot!!!!! You actually got the ideas behind the symbolism right in your tags :D  I hope you have a nice day~

top 5 outfits for luna?

Thank you both!! I’m always happy to post screenshots of Luna @lesbianvisas​

5. Her main chapter 2 outfit where she changed her entire Look to distance herself from who she was pretending to be (and ended up having to be)

4. Her wedding dress from when she married Phi-Ton on Voss

3. This catsuit that. Yeah, belongs in bad spy fiction and all that, but she looks good in it. (side note: the eye patch isn’t supposed to be a part of the outfit, but for some reason cybernetics are limited to humans in swtor and Luna needs it to see on her right eye after Corellia)

2. The outfit she wore as the Red Blade. It was supposed to be an undercover look but it looks so good on her that she’s worn it a lot more than originally planned

1. This outfit that she’s worn on and off during the whole game. This screenshot is from Chapter 1, but it’s her main outfit in kotfe/kotet and beyond

1, 36, 45 for kaia/kaliyo? 💙

thank you, Shannon c: 💖

1. How do they fall asleep? Wake up? Any daily rituals?

They either sleep spooning (Kaia - little spoon, Kaliyo - big spoon), or with Kaliyo on her back and Kaia curled into her (face nuzzled into Kaliyo’s neck. Kaia likes to hear her breathing, her heart, it’s calming. Kaliyo likes the feeling of Kaia’s breath on her). 

Kaia’s an early riser, and if Kaliyo isn’t needed she’ll let her sleep in, on days Kaia can stay in bed and not feel like she should be doing something more useful she’ll stay and lay with Kaliyo. 

They don’t exactly have daily rituals, though they do often spar together, and Kaliyo will help Kaia with stretching. 

36. What’s their greatest strength as a couple? Their weakness?

Hmm these might be a bit contradicting lmfao 

Strength: they’re good at reading each other and figuring out what the other needs. 

Weakness: they’re not good at direct communication. Feelings are hard. This doesn’t really hurt them considering they get it and it works for them but still?

45. Any special dreams or goals they have as a couple? Any heartbreaks? Regrets?

Heartbreak + Regret combo here: Kaia disappearing is a heartbreak for Kaliyo, she knows Kaia was on the ship when it rammed into the Eternal Fleet. It’s a lot easier to just think that Kaia took that as a chance to run out on her, better to believe that than believe she’s dead.

Kaia regrets the above ever happening, she feels horrible for disappearing for 5 years. She feels like she abandoned Kaliyo and if she could change that she would without a second thought.

Dreams and goals, well I guess they’re still trying to figure out what to do. Working under Sith is not ideal to either of them, but they were both satisfied when Kaia was being privately contracted by the Empire. So a goal would be getting back to somewhere adjacent to that.

11 and 18 for aurena?

thanks! :’)

11. bad or petty habits

sneaking sweet breads into council meetings. making a scoff noise at the back of their throat when they’re being particularly petulant or patronizing. procrastinating a morning meditation to sleep in a little longer. tapping their foot when deep in thought or anxious.

growing up, they used to repeat things ana maite said in a mocking tone because they knew it would get on her nerves, too.

18. things they’ll never admit

they miss their twin sister more than they’ll ever admit. occasionally, and especially in the early days after escaping to republic space as a teenager, they wonder how things might be if they had stayed, or if they had managed to convince ana maite to cone with them.

1, 7, 41, 48?

thank you, shan!!

1. How old were you when you first starting writing fanfiction?

the first time i wrote anything was the day before my 18th birthday, and it was terrible but hilarious in hindsight. 

7. already answered!

41. What’s you favourite minor character you’ve written?

probably bodhi in the softening blows. he’s just the sweetest, softest boy and a really good friend, and i loved every scene that i wrote with him in it. talvon is a close second, even though i deleted most of the fics that he was in (oops). but he was a lot of fun and lightened up a lot of my angst. 

48. What’s your favourite trope to write?

mutual pining!!! phew…..i love it.

[simulationcowboy]

top 5 sims worlds?

1. Oasis Springs

2. Strangerville

3. Windeburg

4. Sulani

5. Selvadorada

Send me top fives!

[babineni]

💩 for gaura?

Yaay thank you Shan 💖

💩 for a ridiculous headcanon 

Edér keeps lighting his pipe with Gaura’s hair when he thinks she’s not looking so in turn Gaura keeps stealing Edér’s whiteleaf when she knows he isn’t looking. Then she’d get his attention and she’d hold the whiteleaf over her head, burning it to ash without breaking eye-contact.

wait this is your star wars blog so if you only wanted like star wars related stuff, top 5 eirn outfits?

because i am shameless i’m going to take this as opportunity to post top 5 au eirn outfits

Bryn - The Empire's Wrath Brynaerith started life as is an Eirn au, so she totally counts. The Empire's Wrath - the thing that Eirn measures herself up to and will always fall short of, the nightmare that stared back at her on Tatooine, everything she fears and hates and fails to be. Sithier than all the washouts on Korriban put together. Darth Marr approves (+150). Visionary Pummeler's chestguard mk-2, Blade Tyrant's Belt, Decorated Pummeler's Gauntlets Mk-2, Thermal Pummeler's Greaves mk-2

Operative!Eirn - Business Casual For those times when you need something a little less conspicuous than military standard issue. How do you do, fellow Imperials? Battle-hardened Apprentice Tunic and Belt, Sanguine Commando Gloves and Bracers, Resistance Fighter Pants

Scoundrel!Eirn - The New Classic What can I say. Eirn likes long jackets. Remnant Underworld Smuggler's Jacket, Resistance Fight's Gauntlets, Remnant Resurrected Knight's Belt, Remnant Dreadguard Smuggler's Leggings, Conquered Exarch's Subterfuge Bracers

Scoundrel!Eirn - The Basics She heal, she attack, most importantly, she want her ship back. Oh, and she kicked Skavak in the nadge, but that almost goes without saying. Basic but practical. Full Resistance Fighter's set.

Defection AU - Sith Heretic Republic Defender It’s an old screenshot but I love this look, even if the details of its AU are. super specific. I just shamelessly love the idea of Eirn finding herself an LS Sith path and fighting against the Empire not just to atone for her fuckups, but because she’s found something - made something - worth passionately defending. Thinking about it, this would probably be the outfit/look for that LS Sith recruitable!Eirn i kicked around ideas for a while back. Full Distinguished Warrior set

☼ ♦ for ianthe?

thanks for the ask! SO sorry it took… a lot longer than intended… and sorry in advance that these are a little on the short side, ianthe is lovely but also not very developed, rly need to play her more sometime…

☼ - appearance headcanon

you’re gonna get a 2 for 1 for this one, bc they aren’t as long as the others ive done on their own

- she draws her eyebrows on every morning, going out without them feels sorta like going out without your shoes on for her, years of being made to always have them, to be more “appealing” (and on a meta level, born from the fact that there is only ONE complexion for female twileks without eyebrows, and i’d already used that one on another character)

-  she’s very meticulous about doing her nails, likes to keep them long, or use acrylics (she’s not much of a hand-to-hand fighter, so they dont get in the way so much)

♦ - quirks/hobbies headcanon

window shopping. she loves it. she has a nasty habit of putting a BUNCH of things in her cart, only to take them all out and get like… one thing lmao. even tho she’s a sith now can afford some more expensive things, at least now and then, she still has a hard time dropping a bunch of money on frivolous things

[autisticlaezel]

8 for luna and theron? or thalia if you prefer

8. being unable to open their eyes for a few moments afterward

-

She shouldn’t be doing this. It’s unprofessional - he’s here to pick up intel from her, nothing else, nothing like - this - it puts them both at risk - their jobs are dangerous enough without them getting distracted by his hands grabbing her waist - her fingers in his hair - the feeling of want - of now, now, now making her want to drop everything they’ve achieved on the ground and run away with him.

She’ll feel stupid when it’s done - when she returns to her ship with yet another secret to keep from her - friends? friends doesn’t feel like the right word to describe them after all these years of fighting alongside each other no matter how self-serving their reasons may be - family, perhaps covers it better - dysfunctional as that family may be.

Still, there’s a thrill in doing something for entirely selfish reasons. No orders - no handlers telling her what to do - how to feel, who to touch - how to think. For a moment there is no Cipher Nine - no Legate - just his lips on hers.

She’s not sure how much time has passed when he breaks the kiss. His hands are still on her waist - hers move from his hair to his back. Her eyes are still closed when he starts speaking.

“Wow. That was - wow.” his voice is breathless and when she finally opens her eyes she can see him smiling.

She doesn’t answer - not with words - at least. Instead she pulls him closer - stands on the tips of her toes and presses her lips against his again.

[queenofthieves]

happy birthday riley!!!! i hope you're enjoying your day and having a lovely time 💙💙💙

aaa! thank you, Shannon! 💖💖

[lavampira]

☼ for nih'sa and ☆ for aurena?

thank you!! :’)

NIH’SA

☼ - appearance headcanon

this one is a little tough until the playable nautolans get released in game and I can finally create her, although I’m leaning towards a purple color with her if possible, but what I can say is that she is very short. tiny jedi. so many people underestimate her because of her size, but she’s a very powerful smol ™ tank.

AURENA

☆ - happy headcanon

force healing makes them realize how much they genuinely love helping people, because not only do they get to make others’ lives easier, but it shows them that they can be better than what their parents expected of them had they stayed in the empire. it also leads to them getting the necessary training to become a therapist as well.

6, 16, 18? i love them...

thank you shan!! 💕

6. what is their favorite feature of their partners?

physically, callia Loves theron's back. sometimes he'll lay on his stomach in bed and she'll just run her hands over the smooth, muscled skin. he's also very warm and good to cuddle with. but otherwise, her favorite feature is his genuineness and that he's such a good listener--she can tell that he actually cares about what she says and he remembers the little things about her.

theron loves callia's smile. it always makes him smile too...it just brings him so much joy + he loves when they kiss and she smiles against his lips....oh boy!! he dies!!!! then, his favorite quality of hers is her strength. both physically and emotionally. he admires how open she is, and how much of herself she's willing to share with him.

16. who wants to stay in bed just a little longer?

they both regularly have to get up early, but surprisingly callia is the one who wants to stay in bed a little longer. it's mostly because she doesn't like to meditate (which is what she does first in the mornings), and she'd rather snuggle up to her soft warm sleepy boy instead.

18. who leaves little notes in the other one's lunch? (bonus: what does it usually say?)

i think they'd both leave little notes for each other! they range from sweet to sexy to funny (esp when he gets that terrible haircut--she roasts him until it grows back in).
