Falling Star: random new derby comic 3. The moment when the star accidentally hits the track and everyone's like, "DON'T TOUCH IT -- IT'S EVIL!"

AITA for striking my (M43) son (M20) when he rejected me as his father?

I understand that the title might have you thinking the worst, but please hear me out.

I didn't have a relationship with my son for basically all his life. This was due to my circumstances at the time: I went through a major personal tragedy and was severely injured, to the point of being on life support. To this day I have a lot of issues with my health.

I recently reconnected with my son. I immediately invited him to meet my boss (M92), in hopes that I could set him up with a job opportunity. I feel that this is significant. As far as I know, my son has been working in menial jobs in agriculture, but then apparently chose to leave that life and - to my shock - join a criminal syndicate.

I felt as if getting a good government job would be a way to turn over a new leaf in his life, especially given his past. However, he immediately became combative. I attempted to give him some guidance in managing his emotions, but he rejected that as well.

I'm sad to say that the argument became physical. Some blows were exchanged, but in the end, I was angry enough to strike him. I immediately felt very bad, and decided to offer him the government job on the spot. He rejected me again, and chose to leave very abruptly. I haven't had any contact with him since.

So, AITA?

Edit: Yes, I admit that to call it striking him was an understatement. To clarify, I cut off his hand.

Edit: However, I feel like it should be stated that I myself am a quadruple amputee and we have excellent healthcare.

Edit: I did not immediately identify myself as his father when we met. I think this was my mistake. I think he would have been much more receptive of my message had I done so. As it stands I only told him of our relationship after I had struck him.

Edit: My wife is not in the picture. To my knowledge she passed before his birth.

Loop experiences Insomnia

Yeah, Loop’s first night doesn’t go as planned. They lose consciousness for like, max 30 minutes overall. So they’re not doing great in the morning! And whoops, their filter is slipping a bit!

This very tired Loop is NOT CONVINCED that it’s just insomnia and panic attacks and is scared it might actually stick at some point! (It IS just insomnia and panic attacks)

Nille sees that and uses her tried and true strategy with the erratic stranger: treat that fella like a sad toddler! Reassure them! Give them a simple and repetitive task to complete when they insist on helping you that day! Get them to pass out in minutes!

Also you might wonder why Nille even bothers with Loop. Like. Why would she even get them in her house during these first days? She doesn’t know them, and people in the village might be better suited for the job!

Well you see, Nille is in dire need of a distraction! If she’s left alone with her thoughts, she starts thinking about Bonnie and how she doesn’t know where they are and how her best bet is to stay there in hopes they come back. And if she has to think about that for more than three seconds, she immediately combusts! So all in all, a high maintenance washed up stranger that panics at everything is the perfect excuse for her to Not Think About It.

First art of the new year and I'm quite happy with it! This started out as 'Wouldn't it be cute if Octavia wanted eye markings like Stolas and Blitz have' and turned into a dad-daughter makeover slumber party. 😂

“Actually, it’s Lieutenant Columbo.”

“You’re Starfleet?”

“Star who now?”

Seeing the discussion around Master Sol being the only one from that ill-fated mission to stay on Coruscant is interesting. Indara, Kelnacca, and Torbin all ended up exiling themselves to far-flung worlds to atone for what happened.

Not Sol, though. He stayed. Which is certainly a choice. He, arguably, is the most culpable in the Brendok disaster. His inability to divest his feelings from the mission cost Osha and Mae greatly.

There is a good argument that Sol should not be anywhere near younglings after what happened, let alone still be in the Order.

I disagree. We immediately see his regret and guilt in the aftermath. He’s a changed man after that tragedy and the lessons he learned that night creates the Master Sol we see in present day.

Sol chooses to stay in Coruscant - not in denial of what happened, but in full acceptance of how horribly he messed up.

What’s the lesson he’s teaching to the younglings when we first meet him?

“Do not trust your eyes. Your eyes can deceive you.”

He would know best the importance of such advice. To always question what you see. To think before you act.

While the others seek penance in exile, Master Sol stays and does his best to pass on his knowledge - his failures and mistakes - to others, so they can learn to do better. Like a Jedi Master should.
