#let Ezra be a big brother figure to the sky-walkers!

[proffesionalalpaca]

I love this.

I can completely picture Cheunh has ALOT more words than basic for ultra specific emotions/scenarios like in German.

*Sabine and Ezra halving a chill conversation for the first time in 10+years*

Sabine: “You know that feeling where you long for things passed but are still grateful for the things that have changed, but wish that it had happened in a more direct way instead of all the obstacles that amounted to seemingly nothing despite being apart of the formative experience, all the while knowing that there is not nearly enough caf in the galaxy to be dealing with all this shit?”

Ezra: “Ooohhh, Siu’palta’nkh…yeah totally, I get ya.”

Sabine: (. _ .) wtf

Do the Chiss ever find out how SHIT Ezra's childhood was?

Also love your work, you deserve more asks

oh DEFINITELY

thrawn already knows his background due to his involvement in the empire obviously, as well as because they’ve just spent months together in wild space. when they arrive, ezra (and thrawn to a lesser extent) have to be HELLA vaccinated to even consider joining chiss society again lol

when eli is teaching him cheunh reading, writing, and speaking, he realizes that ezra’s experience with the former two are severely lacking. he gets the story out of thrawn soon enough, and changes his teaching style to reflect that.

(by the time ezra goes back to Lesser Space, he knows cheunh script better than he ever knew basic, and he has a semi-permanent cheunh accent that shows up a lot in his words. basic also doesn’t come as easy too him at first, but with his family’s help he’ll become just as fluent in basic reading and writing as well. life is a learning process :) )

the sky-walkers definitely know, because he ends up joining a lot of their school lessons. at first he just wanted to hang out with the other force sensitives on the ship, but he soon realized that the lessons with a group ALSO learning was really helpful. they do study groups sometimes too :)

aralani is probably one of the last to learn, much to her chagrin. when ezra was on the bridge doing a navigator shift, she asked him to translate something in basic, only for him to go “??? i don’t read that well???”

she immediately found and kicked thrawns ass

(also thank you so much pillow i love ur asks so much and that means a lot to me 😭)
