I decided to make Zohla and Izalia mentally tied together so tightly in the Force that if they’re together they slowly stop being individuals. Create a conflict between their bond and their desire to be their own people

They’ve been together their whole lives but not being twins, their bond in the Force confuses people, Jedi and Sith alike. The Overseers, at least the more esoteric, took it as confirmation of their destiny. The Jedi saw it as a gift from the Force to be managed and attempted to understand it and help the girls control it by separating them as soon as they were padawans and making sure they trained very differently. But the bond seemed to continue to flow rather then loosening it’s grip. The girls spent more then a few hours meditating with their masters and masters of the order in an attempt to understand the way they were intertwined.

One of the few who can use it against them is Valkorian who figures out that hurting them mentally, doubles the pain and exhaustion for both, and while one could fight him off, both of them feeling everything twice as strong, they can’t fight that. Or at least they didn’t yet know how. He tries using this to take them down, get rid of Zohla and take over Izalia. He only succeeds in step one, the others are tougher.

What do you do to prepare for the introweek?

I bought funny head bands (frog themed) for everyone :D and i still need to decide on which day which person will be responsible etc.

Its kinda annoying that we havent met up with all four of us parents yet, cause that means some stuff isnt fixed yet (like the responsibility days, and our plan for the first day)

And nobody is taking the responisibility to fix it (i am head mentor so i guess they expect me to do literally everything?) But i think thats kinda unfair because we all bear the same weight of this right???? But it doesnt really feel like that :/

But okay, i am veeeeery excited for intro!! How about you, did you do some stuff yet?

FIRST Line Tag Game!

Rules: share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics and tag ten people. If you have written less than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway.

Tagged a little while ago by @wolfwarden sorry I’ve only just gotten round to it! It was so interesting to see your first lines, they all seem so thought out and intriguing! Especially Distant Blue and Little Brother, my goodness what a start to a fic!!!

Not A Hero Link sits at the edge of a town tonight, hoping no one will take notice nor care of a small traveller taking shelter under the maple trees.

Lifting the Fog Legend winced against the thickening fog, his eyes blurry and streaming, dampening the cloth pressed firmly over his nose and mouth.

The Missing Link Deep in the valleys of South Central Hyrule, Twilight the Ranchhand dismounted his steed and paused a moment at the gates of Ordon Village, eyes fixed on the horizon

Just Dance It is a lazy sort of afternoon; warm, but not excessively so, with a light breeze that tickles the long grass in the meadow where the nine Links rest.

Bear With Me, He’s A Friend Wild was restless.

They Grow Up So Fast “With all due respect, General, I think sending a nine-year-old into battle is downright immoral.”

I have learned I need to think more about my first lines XD Very interesting to see though! I tag @waterspoutskies @zartophski and @pokegeek151! You have very probably been tagged before, in which case I’m sorry!!!

Academic Rivals WIP has service dragons for the disabled.

Do I have any idea what the hell I'm doing with my magic system or my school system, you know, the things I've made integral to my plot? No. Absolutely not. But I have service dragons

I've had this happen more times than I can count, but the highlight was at a Costco some years ago. I went to one of the free sample tables, where an old lady was demonstrating prosciutto, and as I went to take one, the old lady grabbed me by the wrist.

Quick note, as someone who now has this job part-time: you're not supposed to touch customers.

This old lady then proceeds to cite the usual "I'm sorry, I need your parent or legal guardian present to make sure you don't have any allergies" spiel, and I'm mostly still in shock that she grabbed my hand. So it's almost a minute before I manage to speak again and respond with, "I'm twenty-one."

The response is immediate. She goes from 'stern grandmother' to 'oh no I just endangered my job' and starts apologizing because she thought I was eighteen (which still doesn't stick to her logic???). I even pull out my driver's license to show her and manage to get a sample.

As a nonbinary person it feels uncomfortable when strangers perceive my partner and I as a straight couple,

But it's hilarious to me when they perceive us as father and son.

making my peace with how lyra was characterised in the show vs the books because so much of it relies on her age and even dafne keen being only one year older than lyra when filming set her up to portray a different character from the very beginning. it doesn't seem like a huge difference but lyra being a child and not a teenager is of fundamental importance to her path in the books so it's inevitable that she was written more like a teenager in the show (and you can't stop child actors from ageing, you can only adapt the writing and directing to match how they mature). the show wrote lyra's arc in accordance with her maturing to the age of around 16, so they chose to have her grow out of her habit of lying and instead wield the power of truth to further her on her journey. it was a different journey from the books, but it got her to the same place: saving her friend and countless others with the power of storytelling and a silvertongue

Pokémon Timeskip Series: Champion Dawn 🌸❄️

Known as Sinnoh’s Ice Queen, Dawn is best known for her intimidating yet caring nature. She’s fierce and calculating, never leaving any room for error especially when it comes to battling. On her off days you can find her in the contest hall, a hobby she picked up from her mother, or in the Battle Frontier/Pokémon Lab to catch up with her best friends. It is said she was recently engaged to a certain johto boy (Ethan. It’s Ethan.) however they will not publicly revealed their plans for the wedding as of yet

Made a timeskip adult champion Dawn design a while back! It’s still my favorite of my timeskip series hehehe I hope you enjoy!

Somehow, despite Shaialis quickly outranking every other member of her family, her grandmother still tries to control things. After facing down the dark council, Shaialis has to return to Dromund Kaas and the estate in the Sith district to handle a more intimidating challenge, facing down her mother and grandmother to claim her place as head of the family.

How is facing them scarier then facing the Dark Council? It just is! They were abusive to her as a child and their training while clearly effective in some ways was not worth the work she had to put in to undo the things they did that held her back.

Her grandmother tries to hold her position. She’s still alive, she’s the oldest member. She’s been in charge for years and it’s only because of her that they’re still relevant.

Shaialis counters that it’s because of her. She is the highest ranked Sith the family has had in 800 years. She stands equal to the council. She answers only to the Emperor. The family will continue their status at her will. And the family is now hers to control whether they like it or not. Most of them go along with Shaialis. Legally she’s not wrong.

hi I recently found you on Ao3 and I just wanted to ask: is the LP au abandoned? Or just a hiatus? Thank you for your time!

Hey! I won’t lie to you, I have no immediate plans to update that au at the moment, or any of my other fics. I work all seven days of the week at the moment and some of that includes a writing job which is amazing! But it also means I have very little motivation to do any writing in what little free time I have.

That being said, I am going to be posting some shorter ficlets at some point soon!!

I would love to continue the lp au as well as Perilune at some point, but my life and workload will have to change pretty drastically before I do. It’s a whole lot of commitment and motivation to keep a fic like that going!

Anyway that was a very rambley reply but I wanted to explain properly. I’m not stopping writing for LU because it’s always been a massive comfort to me, but the longer fics are taking a back burner.

Thanks Anon!! And I hope you understand 💜

Until TGG comes out with a reason for why Ave and the gang chose Hawthorne island for the location (y'know the same island where a house exploded, two nepo babies died, all the blame was put on Hannah's sister, and it's the very thing that's been haunting Toby ever since)

I'm gonna start calling it, “Alisa Ortega's biggest PR nightmare”
