#thanks for the help Anakin

[galactic-rhea]

so very curious about c3po in your sith-raised anakin au! does anakin still make him, and if so, does he end up more like triple zero? or is he just the same old c3po surrounded by the worst people he could ever know? provides very hilarious scenarios no matter what outcome <3

Ani actually still got to be raised by Shmi for the first 9 years! Which means is still the same old C3P0 we all know and love!

Eventually Anakin stole him from the Lars got him again, but by that time, C3P0 had a bunch of siblings of...less say, a much tougher nature, and closer to triple zero, lol (And they all also have anxiety and an extreme fear of being seen as useless...simply because they were built by Anakin. Most of these were saved or rebuilt from the trash anyways)

Which naturally means that Anakin had to show parenting skills... since like 15

Someone was sobbing. After a moment, Anakin realized Oh. That's me. And then his knees were buckling and he was heading for the ground. Obi-Wan caught him. "It's all right. I've got you." -K. Miller

Oh my GOD I've fallen down the rabbit hole of your glorious skywalkers apart AU and quite apart from being ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED, I have to know if my boy Cal is around in it?!

yes but i never really developed it!! ok we all know i'm never gonna finish that comic script i'll just tell u guys -- in said script, after leia and anakin free Padme, they find out Luke was taken somewhere else which, after a family recon mission, they find is FORTRESS GODDAMN INQUISITORIUS! (which they assume is bc luke tried to use the force to stop the initial arrest, big mistake huge)

anyway all this to say cal's involvement was a tiny-mentioned cameo to explain why anakin knew how to infiltrate nur (the exact line i wrote in the never-finished-script was "we met this jedi survivor a few years back" + comments abt said survivor inflitrating nur 10 years ago yes it was that unsubtle) -- the idea was they had run into one another on a short mission in the past and then gone their separate ways!

Hell yes it is oc time babey!!! This is my togruta oc, Yora Tos, who was Brea's master when she was but a young padawan learner! 💖🫶💖

She was never offered a spot on the jedi council due to her being a little too new-age but she loved younglings and was perfectly happy teaching the next generation! Her personality was incredibly laid-back, and when little firecracker Brea was assigned to her, the council was hoping she might be able to calm the young one a little. Unfortunately for them, Yora had a very hands-off 'children will be children' attitude that gave Brea a LOT of freedom instead 😂 she wasn't UNWILLING to discipline her, but she did think Brea would benefit more from learning the consequences of her actions firsthand rather than reprimanding her too often, which eventually she did learn! The two remained very close even after Brea's knightship and I think Yora would have loved to take on other padawan after that, but the war sort of got in the way.

Her features are very soft, her gentle nature is reflected in her rounded patterns as opposed to the usually sharp-edged togruta patterns. Her colors are mainly cool, including her kyber crystal, as I think of her personality being much like flowing water and I wanted that to show it in her design. Her lightsaber also has a tulip-bud tip that I saw in the cartoon saloon star wars short 'Screechers Reach' and thought would be very fitting for her! Her first outfit design was kimono inspired but I decided to go the saree route instead in the second pic!

I haven’t seen this post in forever! After like day 3 of all my notifications being overrun by this post I muted it 😭

Haven’t seen it since. But god DAMN. That’s crazy. Glad to see my bloody slut vision resonated with y’all. If this is what I’m known for then I’m fine with that ✌️

Your Thrawn takes (concluding the debate)

From a poll I did yesterday. You can check out the post on my profile. I’m tempted to do a longer one to get a more accurate result… but that’s it for now! Thanks for participating.

100% people

No character, unless they’re a pure villain, is fully immoral. It’s an interesting viewpoint to take on a character like Thrawn who has undoubtedly done moral actions. Perhaps you view something he did as so immoral it negotiated all of this for you?

Another thing that people seem to not realise: ‘good morals’ and ‘good character’ are not synonymous. If somebody tells you a character that you like has done bad things, don’t take it personally! Nuance is what makes characters interesting. I love characters like Maul and Mahito (jjk) purely because they are completely selfish and atrociously evil. I’m not gonna get sad if someone says, ‘how can you like them they’re evil?’ A huge reason why I like them because they’re evil. Duh. Characters like that are fascinating. That person does not understand the implications of characters as storytelling tools (another reason I would argue it’s so important to analyse critically - you’ll take everything personally otherwise and not be able to appreciate this). Maybe you can help them realise that the character isn’t fully immoral, but is actually an anti-villain or an anti-hero. By having these discussions properly (instead of just getting annoyed and shutting them down) we will realise that, wow, 80% of people have the same view (that’s most of you).

I’m repeating myself again here, but I’d also like to stress the importance of expectations when people post about a story or character. Somebody who makes a post about one particular aspect of a story or character that leans towards more moral or immoral is probably not going to give a balanced judgement of the entire work or characterisation. You’ll realise by responding that, oops, they actually do understand everything you do, it’s just this post was about one small thing and you took it as their entire bias. My post criticising the Ascendancy’s use of child soldiers received a response generalising the fandom as people who are obsessed with analysing morality and think Thrawn is this horrific pure evil character. No… that’s not what I said! (And the morality part, that’s a bad thing?)

This annoys me people

7 people picked the last option, which does make me sad if it’s because they’re frustrated by the type of arguments that seem to arise from this topic and don’t want to engage anymore. Having these better discussions would probably help this. Hopefully they do understand the value of morality in literature analysis in general. It can be an important tool to assess whether one character is more effective than another, to illustrate the themes of your story, and much much more.

Some people view stories are purely for entertainment and not for any intellectual purpose, but I disagree and don’t understand this. I would find stories unbelievably boring that way. If you disagree that’s your personal preference, and I will not change my mind because this is mine, so DNI please.

Conclusion of the debate

The conclusion of the debate is… well, critical analysis (including of the moralality kind) is required to understand what really makes a character a good character.

Thrawn is such an incredibly fascinating character, I think, because of his moral ambiguity. Why does Death Note fascinate people? Take the moral debate out of Death Note and you render the entire story meaningless. There would be nothing. There wouldn’t even be a story. I feel like this is obvious.

hiya kit! hope all has been well with you! are the fics on your ko-fi meant to be one-shots or would you write more for any of these they're all very very good but some feel very complete as they are now while some feel like there might be just a *bit* more? even if its just random thoughts or headcanons?

yeah of course! Most of the fics on ko-fi are based on AUs I’ve created on tumblr - they’re all meant to be more slice of life than fully-fledged finished fic for the most part, as some of these ideas can’t be compressed into 5-7k of a Google doc (like the superhero anakin au or the Jedi healer anakin au) and some of them are just another story amongst the ficlets from tumblr (the princess diaries au: Christmas edition is a good example of this!)

i will always welcome thoughts and questions on the AUs on kofi!! I think a lot of them could be very rich and detailed AUs and I fully expect to carry on with some of them - i just won’t be writing the exact same scenes from ko-fi on here cause that feels unfair…but I won’t make anything on lo-fi absolutely integral to read to understand the au cause that also seems unfair

[galactic-rhea]

is there an au about both rebel Anakin and Padme

there is and i call that my Runaways AU! The title is very self explanatory, tbh, but I made a post a long ago that summarizes most of it.

Is honestly a very cruel AU despite not having Anakin falling to the dark side lol

these are ryoo and pooja, btw, and is probably for the reason you're thinking. I just have a blast with all the angsty and family drama that this has. More about that in the tags and under the cut

i know i had said i would go insane over the ahsoka show because we get the whole rebels crew, but i'm here to report... it was pretty bad.

It's the last spring of the Duchess Satine Kryze of Mandalore's season, and rumors are abound that this season would be the her last. Beaten down by heartbreak, there are whispers that she’d decided to be buried with her wealth; but the more romantic of the ton speculate that she wishes to find a more unusual partner to intertwine her life with. In a world were power, influence, charm and wit are stepping stone on the ladder of prestige, love has very little influence.

Anakin Skywalker is an engineering prodigy with dirty blood. Obi-Wan Kenobi is the last living Duke of the Order. One marriage may determine the Fate of their family names, and in their vying for her hand, they find their feud has vastly overcome the boon that would be their success. In a galaxy filled with subterfuge, sabotage, sparring, and secrets, the most dangerous rival is the one sleeping in the same bed.

Space!Bridgerton AU.

Give her a read! Mind the tags!
