LEGENDS Thrawn sassiness cures me of all illness'

Ahsoka and Sabine received a comm from a planet who heard they were searching for Thrawn. They claimed to have a high value prisoner who would be the perfect bait for the Grand Admiral. They went to investigate, wondering if perhaps another of Thrawn's species had been captured (potentially for no crime other than resembling the Grand Admiral), but when faced with the prisoner were shocked to find a human man looking back at them.

The man's captors informed the pair that this man was Grand Admiral Thrawn's personal aide for around a decade. But he deserted. Thrawn would undoubtedly come for the prisoner to seek revenge for his betrayal.

Thrawn did come. He led the charge himself, blaster in hand, battling with a fury none had seen from the notoriously stoic man. When he reached the prisoner, Ahsoka and Sabine were hidden waiting to protect the man. They did not anticipate the prisoner calling the Grand Admiral by name, nor The Grand Admiral's soft response of the prisoner's name.

They waited and watched and allowed the Grand Admiral to free the prisoner. Clearly they had misjudged the situation. Once the man was free he tackled Thrawn in a desperate embrace.

They realised that Thrawn had not been baited by revenge, but by love, and that the Grand Admiral was not so irredeemable as to be unloveable.

Night drop of sketches with Eli Vanto.

In addition to the canonical appearance, I sketched a version of the “commodore” from my Eleventh Fleet AU.

Because we need MORE bearded Eli'van'to, otherwise only Karyn with a cape :3

Completed request for this

Requested by @black-cat-babe - palette #2 - Thrawn - A Defining Moment

Thank you for the request, @black-cat-babe! This one was tricky; I’ve never read the Thrawn trilogy, so my niece helped me out and gave me the main concept. I like the idea of Thrawn trying to create art of his own at some point, and being challenged by his own limitations and the interpretive significance of them.

Taking my time with these, still planning to finish them all.

For the things you do endear me to you

hello, dave filoni. it looks like you’ve been ignoring the canon thrawn trilogies in order to change thrawn’s character into something more similar to the heir to empire trilogy that is no longer canon. i’m sure this makes thrawn fans so happy. let’s play a game: you have six books in front of you…the thrawn trilogy and thrawn ascendency trilogy. you have one hour to read these and come up with an actual understanding of thrawn’s complex motivations and personality or you will be thrown into a sarlacc pit.

late night sketch of Thrawn doing Ziara’s hair for the soul. I’d like to think he insists on it before they spar (because obviously he knows the most optimal geometric pattern for each hairstyle or something)

Anyway. Im emo about them again

[purringysalamiri]

I have free time for tonight and tomorrow, I will be posting more thrawn in his comics. Legends, and canon.

part one (legends)
