//Hey guys! Sorry for my absence but I just wanted to let you all know that I'm moving this month so, and with working, moving, and school, I'm not going to have a ton of time to be on here. Not enough to do anything substantial anyway.

//I'm really sorry for keeping you all waiting on replies and stuff, and I'm really grateful you all had stuck around as long as you have.

//Hopefully when we're all moved in, I'll have more time to write replies and stuff, but until then, I am available on Dms and on Discord for any mutuals who want to chat!

//anyway, thanks for your patience and I hope to write with you all soon!

Quick visual guide on how to deal with anon hate!

I sent myself a test anon to demonstrate how to nuke these guys!

Step 1. Open your Ask Box

Step 2. Click the ••• in the upper right corner and click “Report Message”.

Step 3. Select “Report Something Else”

Step 4. Scroll down to “I’m being harassed” and select that option

Step 5. Confirm you’re the one being harassed and continue with the report process

Once this is all done, not only will the Anon be blocked but the account connected to it will be reported for Harassment. However, until anons decide to feel civil again, definitely turn off anon and restrict blog visibility until you feel comfortable again.

OOC || First Free thoughts of the night

//Taking a break from school work and thinking about Esverr and the extrasensory abilities Esverrans have due to them being descended from ancient Human and Miraluka ancestors.

//Like, because of the inherent connection to the Force Native Esverrans have, they have an empathic connection with and through the Force. They're able to perceive and connect to other beings through the Force, starting with their own family and community. So they can sense each other and each other's emotional state and learn to navigate this connection at an early age. It's like being able to hear the tone and intent in someone's voice except it isn't verbal.

//This connection is embedded into all of Esverran culture and society, it's how they recognize each other from other humans and communicate non-verbally with each other. It's very much like the empath version of Charm Signalling and Lorrdian Kinetic Communication.

//This makes things very difficult for people born on Esverr whose force sensitivity is too weak to connect with others or for people whose connection to the force has been damaged or tainted. For those whose connection is weak or damaged, Esverrans are compassionate and try to provide medical help and accommodations. For those whose connection is tainted or twisted (specifically by the Dark Side), there is a copious amount of aversion and even defensiveness towards them.

//This is kind of seen during Darius's homecoming long after he escapes from Lusankya and the attempted induction by Dr. James Phelandus Hebers into the Imperial Videre (AKA: the Darr'thumbrians). I'm gonna write more about that but safe to say that when Darius came home, he wasn't exactly recognized and was about to be forcefully ejected from the planet by his brothers if he didn't show himself very promptly.

//BEHOLD MY PRISON SELFIES!

Friends.

My fellow Rebel put out a bounty on me, the Mando Mercs hunted me down and threw me behind bars.

And the absolute disrespect, she took selfies!

OOC || Thoughts at work

//Coming home to Sol after spending 8 years in the Known Galaxy, things have definitely shifted in perspective for Echo. On one hand, she's been trained rigorously to Rebel Alliance and later New Republic standards. Light is thin so she learned to use it sparingly and effectively. The horrors of war are closer to what the Lightless experience and her own impulses are sternly bridled lest her insubordination cost someone or her entire squad their lives.

//Life moves quickly yet seems somehow more mundane than the life of a guardian she was born to. Scavenging was strictly regulated with her to avoid potentially piratical behaviors, but she retained her caching behavior even in the Alliance military.

//When asked where she's from, she thinks back to the things only seen in nightmares and horror holodramas and replies, "Oh, just on the edge of the seventh ring of the Corellian hells. The final ring is on our moon and trust me, you don't want to go there."

//It takes a long time but over the years, she began to forget the good that came with the horrors. She remembered becoming Eris's acolyte and the acidic feeling of Hive magic in her light, her enthusiasm and determination to help Eris insulating her from its corrosive effects. She remembered fighting vex on Neomuna and Nesus, the thought of them coming and utilizing tech in the Known Galaxy being enough to give her nightmares of her friends being transformed into vex.

//She remembers the Cabal, the empty Shadow legion soldiers, and the valiant, brutal members of Caiatl's coalition. She remembers the Psions she's had to fight and work beside, and even the ones scrambled and "perfected" by the Witness.

//And lastly, she remembers the Eliksni, the Old Crews her friends had to fight, the horrible fate of house Salvation, and her dearest friend, Eido, helping her father, Mithrax, in House Light.

//She remembers all of these, all of them distant in the space of the Known Galaxy. But when she returns, when she can breathe with both lungs again, she feels like she's back in her own reality, wondering if the whole life she'd led was nothing more than a Vex dream.

//But the uniform and flight harness prove that she's not dreaming. Not now or then. And now with the Witness cutting through the Traveler's core, she'll have to choose: Stay with the Vanguard and help rebuild her home or return to the Known Galaxy and the place she feels she's needed.

which of your ocs is most apt to end up in jail? What is their crime? Who do they take with them, canon or oc? Why do they take the person with him?

The most apt person to end up in jail is actually a toss-up between Echo and Face. Both because they're Wraiths under Wedge Antilles' ( @red-flight ) tutelage and are either cooling their heels after a fight in a tapcaf, or as part of an intelligence op they're in on.

Chances are, one of them was jailed simply for a public disturbance and property damage and the other is there to either break them out or give them the tools to break out. And if it isn't one of them going in initially, then it's one of them breaking another Wraith out.~

// thinking about Darius and @guidefaithed's T'pring cooking thing and if he was allowed, I think Darius definitely would look at the vegetarian ingredients around him and make a Vulcan version of Pog Soup.

Inbound Flight

Echo-17: “that’s Hoth?“

Wes: “yep!”

Hobby: “in all its frostbitten misery.“

Echo– 17: “geez, and I thought Europa was a frozen waste. This place doesn’t even have fancy ruins to run through!”

Wes over comms to Hobbie: “you know, every time she says something like that I get the impulse to ask ‘where did you grow up that you had frozen ruins?’ But then I stop myself when I remember the rest of what she said and decide you know what I don’t think I want to know, you know?”

Hobbie: “just one more thing to add to her file. Come on, let’s make sure she lands in the right place.”

Moral alignment test

Echo-17

Neutral Good

People who are Neutral Good are guided by their conscience and typically act altruistically, with only secondary regard for whether their actions are lawful or in line with cultural expectations or traditions. Neutral Good individuals have no problems with what is lawful as such, and nor are they rebels by nature, but they believe in furthering kindness and good deeds through whatever means seem necessary to them. If fostering good means supporting an organized society, then that is what must be done. If good can only come about through the overthrow of the existing social order, then so be it. For many who are Neutral Good, insistence on either lawfulness or rebellion is seen as detriments to or distractions from the greater goal of promoting true kindness in the world.

Whisper

Neutral Evil

Neutral Evil people are primarily concerned with themselves and their own advancement. Their primary interest is in getting ahead in life. If there is a quick and easy way to profit, Neutral Evil personalities will pursue it, whether it be legal, questionable, or even obviously illegal – as long as they themselves stand to gain from it. Although Neutral Evil individuals do not have the every-man-for-himself attitude of Chaotic Evil personalities, they nevertheless have no qualms about betraying their friends and companions for personal gain. Neutral Evil personalities typically base their allegiance on power, money, and personal gain, which makes them prone to two-timing and quite receptive to bribes.

//Sorry had to do Echo and find out her thing. I was thinking she'd be more chaotic but it looks like her time as a Wraith kind of tempered that! Whisper is absolutely atrocious, though I don't think the neutral evil quite fits her. Something about being bribable instead of treating everyone as bite-able if you know what I mean. XD

Moral alignment test

Darius

True Neutral

True Neutral people believe in the ultimate balance of forces, and they refuse to see actions as either good or evil. True Neutral individuals do their best to avoid siding too strongly with any one force, whether that force is good or evil, lawful or chaotic. For this reason, True Neutral personalities sometimes find themselves drawn into rather peculiar alliances, friendships, and life paths. To a great extent, they side with the underdog, sometimes even changing sides as the previous loser becomes the winner. Such people often see good, evil, chaos, and laws as simply prejudices that lead to dangerous extremes. Like the Taoist masters of ancient China, they tend to believe that the universe functions best when the light and the dark, the yin and the yang, are in balance.

//Heyyy, so I'm alive! Buried under work, schoolwork, and moving but still alive. So far things have been going okay but like, holy moly if it all isn't stressful.

//BUT I have been trying to keep muses alive by listening to more Star Wars EU books, namely Mercykill by Aaron Allston, and thinking of Echo being a guardian serving with the New Republic and bringing "civilization" home to help her people better rebuild and be ready for when the rest of the galaxy comes to meet them.

//While also thinking about how she's going to age and mature as part of the Wraiths and later part of the commandos when the Wraiths are disbanded. (I'm kinda reading things out of order as my roomie and I get them, so bear with me!)

//But it really has me thinking about how quickly Echo would age and mature with people who don't live as long as people in Sol and how that would mark her in appearance and behavior.

//Darius also has a few thoughts, but he's a bit more hazy than Echo and has been leaning towards AU stuff to keep things interesting.

//anyways, I'm a live and I hope to be able to be here more often when we're done with this move!
