#samakro's bathtub

[aburningconstellation]

thinking about wutroow trying to make eli feel more welcome in the ascendancy & asking him 'what's a thing humans do that we could do here to make it feel more like home?' & eli - being the true space cowboy he is - convinces her they should make moonshine in samakro's bathtub (samakro catches them doing it & is like GODDAMNIT THRAWN HOW DO YOU KEEP CAUSING PROBLEMS IN MY LIFE - YOU ARE A BILLION LIGHTYEARS AWAY)

[mayhaps-a-blog]

Another installment in Samakro's Bathtub, my series about the bathtub in the Springhawk Captain's quarters. This one a little more bittersweet than the others.

Summary: Ar’alani’s last night in the Ascendancy with Thrawn at her side.

Hi again

Guess what?

It’s been a whole two years since I published my first fic! That’s a whole two years of creative writing, which is two whole years more than I ever expected. The WIP folder continues to grow alarmingly, but I’m getting used to the ideas breathing down my neck late at night as I try to sleep :)

In this past year, I’ve written another 17 fics for a total of 112,608 words - fewer than last year, although in my defense, I also wrote a dissertation that I will defend... tomorrow (don’t worry, I’m drafting this ahead of time and scheduling it to post), so I’ve been a bit busy! And this doesn’t count my WIPs - there’s a lot of words in those WIPs :)

I’ve branched out a bit: Only 13 Star Wars fics, with 4 Sandman fics and 1 Babylon 5 fic. 6 Star Wars fics involve Thrawn, with the others focused on Andor (2), Original Characters (2), Bo Katan (1), Obi-Wan (1), and the Original Trilogy (1).

In honor of another year of writing, and hopefully having the time for NaNoWriMo this year, here’s a roundup of my fics from this year!

(Last year’s fic roundup can be found here)

Series Additions:

Glimpses of a Better Galaxy gained the promised sequel, And So We Go Marching On, following Bo Katan as she works to rebuild Mandalore following the Clone Wars and the events of Get F***ed, Palps!. Series is up to four parts, with possibly a fifth on the way. Someday.

The Adventures of the Poor Sods Left to Clean Up Rebel!Vader’s Mess is now a two part series, It’s Not Easy Being Evil as the setup for Vader’s defection and the fallout on the Executor and Cool Ranch Vader 2: Electric Boogaloo as the promised continuation! Cool Ranch Vader 2 remains an ongoing collection of one-shots in the universe, although a plot is developing in my outlines...

Samakro’s Bathtub has gained its fourth part, Ar’alani’s Day... Could Have Gone Better, continuing the saga of the captain’s bathtub on the Springhawk (which Samakro continues to insist is his). Gen, all Ace/Aro characters.

Through Darkness now has a third part, which is the longest fic I’ve written yet at 44,586 words! Damned followed my Jedi OC, Kazellis, after Order 66 as she works to pick up the pieces of her life, her Fall, and the Jedi. Follows the events of Darth Vader (2017) Issue #19. A fourth part prequel is in the works.

Thrawn Standalones:

Rebel Tactics: Thrawn and Ezra play chess and talk tactics after the Rebels finale.

An Unfortunate Meeting of Minds: Admiral Thrawn walks into an art gallery run by one Luthen Rael.

A Csannukkah Story: Vurawn and Vurika celebrate the holidays together. A lifetime later, they meet again. 

And This Was the Story He Told: Vurika reads Vurawn a story. Returning to the Ascendancy, together they search for the truth in old legends.

Spoilers, C’baoth Dies: In honor of May the Fourth, a drabble (exactly 100 words) with exactly what it says on the tin.

Other Star Wars Standalones:

The Demon from the Stars: Obi-Wan hears a Tusken story and contemplates the past.

The Ghosts of My Enemies Shall Be Their Undoing: a collab with the wonderful @jedihlaalu, Luthen Rael gives his apprentice a Sith holocron with a particularly ornery ghost (Sith OC).

In Another Life: An AU where Mon Mothma never got married and never wanted to, starring Senator Bel Iblis and Bail Organa.

The Bsivi Family: A recounting of a Chiss folktale from the freezing of Csilla.

Sandman Fics:

A Visit From Death: Death comes for Roderick Burgess, and a conversation between siblings.

Forever Shall We Wait: Lucienne waits for the return of her lord as the Dreaming crumbles.

“You’ll never know how lucky you were.”: An AU where Burgess captures Death, just like he wanted. Be careful what you wish for...

Babylon 5 Fics:

Summers: An AU where Talia Winters may not be entirely erased, and Dr. Franklin has a chat with Control. Sequels are, possibly, in the works when I have time to research DID properly.

New WIPs:

Untitled Secret Empire: Post-Rebels, Thrawn seeks to return to the Empire; but events in the Chaos may demand more of his attention than he expects! Actually an older, thought-to-be-abandoned WIP. I should have known better XD Outlined, attempting to draft by mid Ahsoka season 1, hoped to be finished by the end of Ahsoka season 1. We’ll see how that goes!

Untitled Myrkyr Exploration: Post-Rebels, Thrawn and Ezra visit a most curious planet. Outlined, a few scenes written.

The Edge Between Dream and Nightmare: Post-Ascendancy novels, Che’ri’s powers develop in an unexpected direction, which leads her back to an old friend. Mostly drafted, stuck on the ending.

Have You Tried Flying In Circles: Thrawn searches for the perfect planet for his exile, much to the growing frustration of the crew of the Parala. Outlined, first section drafted.

Untitled Locked Tomb: Fallen Order crossover starring Merrin and Cal exploring the tombs of Dathomir. Outlined, first section drafted.

Somehow, Maul Has Returned: Maul dies... but his apprentice needs him. Premise drafted, but not sure where I’m going with it; might just post for others to play with once it’s edited.

Good Soldiers Follow Orders: The events of Clone Wars: Orders through Fox’s eyes. A darker characterization than fandom’s usual. Drafted, needs editing.

Untitled Chiss OC: Backstory for my original Chiss navigator character, and a look at commoner’s life on Csilla. Part 1 drafted, may expand to part 2.

Catch a Tiger (Sandman fic): Delirium is summoned by a less-than-two-penny magician. It goes poorly. Drafted, needs editing.

Up Greens! (Babylon 5 fic): The Drazi remember a time when things didn’t end in fighting, and when once again it comes times to pick sides, they call in their savior. Ivanova did not sign up for this. Drafted, needs editing.

Untitled Mari’s Story (Original Work): Backstory for a D&D NPC and their adventures in a fantasy version of northern Africa during the Islamic Golden Age. Outlined.

Updates On:

The Gambler (Rebel!Thrawn) Part 4: outlined

This’ll Make a Great Story at our Second Wedding (Thranto Ghost Marriage) Part 2: Outlined, one section written.

Sortie (Rebel!Samakro): living in my head rent-free. Still an outline and prologue.

Crotalus and Viperidae (Sith and Jedi OCs): next up once I finish Secret Empire.

Zero Station (Chiss history): well, we hit that part of the D&D game, so I have to write it eventually :)

Rise, Wrath, Ruin (Boudica original work): expanded character list and a few sections written.

[mayhaps-a-blog]

Guess what?

It has been exactly one year since I published my first fic on AO3 (but also anywhere)! What a year it’s been, I say, glancing over my ever-growing WIP folder.

In that year, I’ve written 32 works, for a total of 142037 words (not counting the WIPs. There’s a lot of words in those WIPs.).

All Star Wars, so far: 13 works in Thrawn (2017), 15 in Thrawn: Ascendancy, 8 in Rebels, 5 in Outbound Flight, 5 in the Prequel Trilogy, 3 in the Clone Wars, 2 in the Original Trilogy, 1 in Kenobi, and 1 in Aftermath. Most in multiple categories.

In honor of another year of writing (hopefully), here’s a roundup of all my fics!

(It’s long, so!)

Series:

The Gambler : A Rebel!Thrawn AU, starting with my first ever fic! Three parts, with vague plans for a fourth at some point.

Glimpses of a Better Galaxy : A collection of fics from an AU where Order 66 never happened, and other fix its. Starts with an Outbound Flight Fix-It, but most are following the events of Get F***ed, Palps! and its consequences. 3 parts, at least one more on the way.

Samakro’s Bathtub : A fluff series starring the Springhawk captain’s bathtub, which by all rights should be Samakro’s (says him). Gen, all Ace/Aro characters. 3 parts, possibly one more in the works.

Intelligence Gathering for Fun and Profit : What if the Rebel crew managed to sneak a camera into Thrawn’s office? Revelations and new missions ensue! Two parter, the main fic and a small Kanera coda.

Through Darkness : I love my OCs... love giving them horribly tragic backstories! My Jedi OC, Kazellis, survives the Clone Wars and Order 66, but not intact. Two parter, one more longer saga on almost finished, a prequel planned.

To be continued:

This’ll Make a Great Story at our Second Wedding : A Thranto ghost marriage with political shenanigans and Thrass, sower of chaos. Technically within the Glimpses universe, so everything’s mostly fine! Part 2 in the works.

It’s Not Easy Being Evil : Cool Ranch Vader, i.e. Vader defects and it’s up to Piett and a handful of random officers to impersonate him in order to not get executed! This can’t possibly go wrong. Part 2, which will be a collection of shorts, partly written.

Stand-alones:

Mismatched : What if Vurass was adopted by the Irizi instead of the Mitth? An AU about family, politics, and miscommunication.

Five Times Thrawn Explained and One Time He Didn’t Have To : Six conversations Thrawn had with his friends, family, and others about being Ace/Aro.

Five Times Thrawn Gave Ba’kif a Headache and One Time He Was Someone Else’s Problem : The trials and travails of Ba’kif’s bottle of ibu’prof’en as he deals with Thrawn’s nonsense.

Five Times Eli Played for Spite and One Time He Played for Fun : Badass!Eli fic featuring card games and Eli being brilliant and petty.

A Walk in the Park : A conversation between Thrass and Thrawn for Gen Ascendancy 2022, featuring birdwatching and bug hunting!

Walking Among Shadows, Do You See Them Grow? : A character study featuring Thrawn and a Force-Sensitive child.

Everything is Fine : Thrass lives on a farm and everything is fine! That’s it, that’s the fic.

A Study in Forestry : A very silly fic I wrote while studying for exams. It’s. Uh. Educational, I guess.
