#ok cianna literally nobody asked

[stuckinapril]

as a 21 year old i feel like i really need to drill it into myself that social media fomo is not real and i will not be missing out on anything by not checking my phone immediately. like literally nothing is important enough or worthy enough. i am not missing out. i can get to it when i get to it and i would be just fine.

i think i really need to learn how to cold quit things... one habit i have that really bothers me is checking my phone first thing in the morning bc it's "just for 5 minutes" "just to see if anyone sent me anything important" no bitch literally nothing on your phone requires you to check your phone first thing when you open your eyes!!! stop it

[SWTOR OC challenge: R - Day 8]

[15-day Q&A] [Part 1] [Part 2] [Part 3] [Part 4] [Part 5] [Part 6] [Part 7]

8. Romances. A companion? An NPC? One of your OCs? Someone else’s? Nobody? Explain!

- Tarskal - As featured on this blog overall: TD <3 Cianna. (There’s a whole tag for it.) . . .OTHER than that, Tarskal has been very active in the seducing of all sorts of people. All over. All the time. Doesn’t change his way of life just b/c he picked a favorite. In fact, while things were starting up with Cianna he was also enjoying spending time with his new pal Vette, which turned into a thing that went on a very long time. She eventually realized she was forming her own identity for herself, and his ideas didn’t line up with it--nor did she want to be increasingly bumped to the backseat behind Cianna. She and Cianna had learned to be friends, but Vette dumps TD and leaves eventually. (Their tag. hehhehh) Keran & Adijjah are examples of ppl whose company he enjoys enough for booty calls, but. Like. Doesn’t qualify as “romantic”. At some point into his tenure as Emperor’s Wrath (probably?? My timeline is not well-established) he also ends up in a persistent relationship with Zahied, a jaded, middle-aged dude on the enemy side of the battlefield. By that time TD is also a bit older, married, and has a kid like 6 years old or so. He & the Republic officer don’t see this as a romance (at all) either. It’s not. But they do have an Understanding (mostly unacknowledged) that makes it. . . a little more like a partnership than JUST a “hate-fling” that turned into a long-term benefits-related arrangement.

- Kirryl - She’s been on the flirt with Dani’s Zet’nuri (fun & lovely green twi’lek who does some less-than-legal business). That’s more of a casual nice time for them, and Kirryl isn’t one to catch feelings--most of the time. 8O Somewhat earlier in her life, she got. . . Almost. . . emotionally wrapped-up with a SITH. Liio definitely got it bad for her, but things couldn’t stay the way they were & the conflict of circumstances (not to mention values) separated them before they worked out what to do about their chemistry/connection.

- Arameis - His view was that JEDI DON’T DO ROMANCE. But his heart is too soft, and Adijjah is too soft, and he has himself a problem. He tries to pretend for quite a while that it’s OK if they’re only friends and she keeps meeting other people. . . .He can’t pretend forever that he’s succeeded in maintaining detachment. \8)

- Kallir - He was with a fellow cadet in Intelligence’s alien agent program when he was younger. Kallir may or may not have started to think it was going to be an actual relationship, but the other young man (”Yan” the twi’lek) was actually a terrible person. It got very unhealthy. Absolutely miserable times for a small pumpkin. When he worked with Sanju Pyne on Balmorra he had some real. . . /Pining/. . . feelings. X) But he never told him. Tried to move on quickly as he could. Kallir was very lonely, on a whole, until he and Keran ended up meeting at work on Dromund Kaas. He had some in-house/desk-job spy tasks, and Keran was an apprentice with chores around the citadel. Keran is the flirty one who started it. They went out on a date, then some more dates. . . basically with casual intent. One or the other of them was often away for work, which kept them apart. But they continued seeing each other when they could, started to really WANT to see each other more, and generally got closer & more into each other over time. Until finally Kallir needed to ask if Keran saw him as his. . . boyfriend?! Dumb Keran didn’t think to tell him earlier in those words. ^3^ (Their tag~)

(Bonus)

- Elenir - We haven’t done much to feature them because Troopers aren’t our area of interest, but Dani & I ship ours. Elenir is cyborg lesbian, & Kaashla (whose name I can’t even spell??) is a lovely purple togruta. Both have big muscles & big guns (literal guns), and are loyal soldiers of the Republic. Also a headcanon I had previously: Elenir having a crush on Shae Vizla.

- Lyir - Before Arameis can come to terms with liking a girl, Lyir and Adijjah probably gonna have a cute fling. Lyir is very outgoing and cuddle-happy. (He will still win over Arameis as a friend despite confused-Jedi jealousy.) - Xerzen - He’s Ashara’s future cat husbando. 8]

- Ziore - [Miraluka Jedi Guardian] When SWTOR gave me 2 free companions for all my characters to have, I got Shae and Nico Okarr without knowing ANYTHING about either of them. Thus I ship Ziore and Nico based on nothing else except his cheesy lines when he’s summoned/does stuff for you as a companion. - Huraj - [Zabrak Sith Sorcerer] . . . I didn’t mean for her and Khem to be coordinated colors for shipping reasons. It was just going to be innocently cute that he has the red customization and she’s a red-skinned zabrak. But. Then they came out with that new content and. I guess it’s going to be a thing.
