#the rebel path

[elf-trash]

I know you probably get a million of these messages but I just finished The Rebel Path and it's so so good. I started reading cyberpunk fics to cope with the endings and the lack of Johnny romance and you literally delivered the most perfect solution to that possible like not only is it phenomenally well written it blends so seamlessly with canon that I legitimately can't tell at times what's the game and what's your embellishments to the canon scenes.

Anyway I know in all your ao3 messages you say you're working on those last four chapters and I really hope that's still true because I think it'd be a shame to leave a work as fantastic as yours hanging when you're so close to the finish line! Hopefully life clears up for you soon and you get some time to write again! As a fellow fic writer I know how hard it can be sometimes and I've got my fingers crossed for you!!

Anyway hope this message makes your day a little brighter! 💖 I'm completely obsessed with your fic, I've been screaming about it to all my friends for like a week now as I make my way through it and none of them even know a thing about cyberpunk, but I'm sure they're getting tired of listening to me sob about these two idiots. 😂

first off, i am SO sorry for taking so long to reply to this message!!!! it genuinely made my week when i received it!!!! thank you so, so much for all of your kind words, i was and am truly floored!!! 💖😭

i told myself i'd wait to reply until i had a new chapter ready, and that somehow turned into another six months, but i am here to announce that i FINALLY posted an update!!!!! forever beating the GRRM allegations!!!!

again, thank you so much, messages like this honestly mean everything to me. i hope you enjoy the new chapter and i promise the rest will come more quickly than my massive, unplanned 2 year hiatus!!! happens to the best of us i guess, lol

appreciate you so much!!!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Concept art for the Eleventh Fleet - Mitt'raw'nuruodo.

Hands got to the rendering of Mitt'raw'nuruodo's sketches. It was unusual to draw him without the Grand Admiral’s signature hairstyle, but I really wanted to make a strong contrast between his life “before” and “after” starting his service in the navy. Life on his home planet certainly wasn't easy.

+ some parallel with Ezra and his fate.

…And I still think the idea of ​​making Thrawn's kintsugi-style form during his exile is my best idea :3 After red eyeliner on Karyn's eyes, of course.

The reason EAH is a children’s franchise is because only a child who Doesn’t Understand Things could possibly consider Royal being the right stance

I may have some kind of weird ass theory coming up for Tf One, given how I feel like Sentinel Prime represents the Christian idea of angels as humans with wings and how Airarachnid represents Biblically accurate angels with her eyes and weird proportions.

So I don't know if SideVermin93 has a tumblr, but if someone could either tag them or send this their way, that'd be greatly appreciated. And seriously, don't knock Rebel Path simply because it features an OC; it does frequently follow Uzi's perspective, anyway.

C is a fun (if tragic) addition to the cast, and I love his use of colourful language. I may have quoted him a few times, I'm not gonna lie. Overall, I genuinely laughed out loud and smiled a bunch while reading this, which hasn't happened in quite some time.

Basically, as a thank you for making me laugh, here's the Ye Olde disassembly drone who is tired of this shit.

HAPPY 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY, MURDER DRONES!

Here's to the series that has corrupted my brain for 3 years straight and managed to inspire me to write 400K WORDS so far! I genuinely love this show to bits and I'm so lucky that I managed to find such an amazing show.

I don't know if there will be any guarantees of a season 2 or more Murder Drones in general, but in my heart of hearts I will always be waiting here and hoping to see more of the show that has - quite literally - been the brightest part of my life these past 3 years.

Murder Drones has given me a purpose and a hobby in a time where I had... basically nothing going for me, and no matter how long it takes, no matter what happens, whether we get any more Murder Drones or not, I'll stay here, working on a fanfiction of a show that I have gotten so emotionally attached to.

Here's to you, Murder Drones, and here's to the future, and here's hoping that I'll be able to see a season 2 someday.

And to everyone who's sticking around for OTRP, I've got good news, chapter 45 is up now and the link is just below.

And with that, it's time for me to go to bed, I've got big things planned and I can only hope I can do them tomorrow.

Thank you guys so much for... everything, really, I feel like I'm right where I belong, even as it feels like the world around us is getting darker, I got all of you guys for company, and that makes it just a little bit easier /gen

Cyberpunk 2077 - Good Morning, Night City

[antianakin]

Maybe it's my personal bias, but a dark Ahsoka trying to get back in to the WBW because the whole mess from Anakin and then never actually processing her feelings, grief, anger etc leading her to thinking she can "fix" everything by "saving" Anakin. Not really thinking of the repercussions.

And have it be that she isn't trying to change the timeline for selfless reasons, but because she wants Anakin back. That misplaced sort of blame that comes when you over idolize someone. It was only Palpatine's fault, she tries to believe, Anakin wouldn't have done this all unprompted.

In trying to get back to the WBW having her actually process her emotions and the events and realize she's putting herself and her former master on pedestals to cope. Gradually working on herself.

Or not. Idk having Ahsoka unhealthily cope with grief in a way almost paralleling Anakin (trying to cheat death for Padme and failing anyway) sounds cool to me. Or maybe I'm just exhausted.

This would certainly make a real cool AU! The one thing making me hesitate is that she explicitly says while in the WBW in Rebels that Ezra can't save his master just like she can't save hers and never shows any real inclination towards trying to use it to save Anakin. So if you went with this concept, you'd have to figure out why she changed her mind on it or you'd just have to pretend like that moment didn't happen.

But in general I think that the idea really works! Like, I wouldn't want her to actually MAKE IT to the WBW or anything, I don't want any weird time travel shenanigans for her to mess with, but I think the idea of her TRYING to get back to it so she can fix Anakin, or fix what she did wrong or something could be a really interesting goal for her to have throughout a season where she's dealing with her Anakin feelings. Especially if we assume she's slightly fucked up from Malachor and its Sith bullshit in addition to her regular emotional struggles.

And in the she has to give it up. Like maybe she finds a way to do it, a way to open one of those doors, but doing so would have some sort of consequence and she has to choose between her selfish desire to "save" Anakin and fix what she believes are her own mistakes, or keeping that particular consequence from happening. Maybe people she's grown close to over the course of the story will be killed or put at risk if she opens the door, and she has to let it go, let ANAKIN go, in order to protect them.

That version of Anakin is gone, he's dead, and the version of him that exists now is clearly unwilling to be saved, at least by her, and all she can do is accept that and move on. Let go of her guilt, let go of her fears, just... let go. MAYBE her choice to leave the Order spurred him down that path, but maybe it didn't. Maybe Anakin made his own choices based on things entirely unrelated to her. Maybe if she'd been there she could've helped him, but maybe she'd have just been killed with all the rest. She'll never know and she has to come to terms with that before she can move forward with her life. She might've left first, but Anakin left her, too, and he took everything else she loved with him when he did.

In an ideal world, this would lead Ahsoka to do a lot of reflecting on her past with Anakin as she tries to figure out how far back she'd have to go to "save" him and she realizes just how dark he already was when she knew him and ultimately realizes that HE WAS DARK WHEN SHE MET HIM. There were things that happened to him, things he'd probably already chosen to DO, long before she'd met him that were already taking him down the path to darkness, things she'll likely never know or understand. But it allows her to see Anakin so much more truthfully than she'd ever done before. No longer does she view Anakin through the rosy lens of childhood hero worship, she can see how often he struggled with his own darkness and the ways it impacted their relationship, the way it's continuing to impact her NOW.

There were good moments, and she'd loved him, but he was dark long before she knew him and that's something she HAS to accept about him if she's ever going to let him go. There were things Anakin did to her that weren't okay, there were things Anakin taught her that were wrong and caused her to start down her own darker path, and until she can recognize that Anakin FAILED HER, she'll never be able to find her way BACK. She'll never be a Jedi until she acknowledges this very important and vital truth about Anakin and her apprenticeship under him. He WASN'T a good master and he WASN'T a good Jedi. He was sometimes a good PERSON, but he'd ultimately decided to leave that behind, too. He wasn't the person she'd thought he was and unless she wants to become him, she has to acknowledge where he made mistakes so she can keep from making the same ones herself.

So yeah, I think this idea has a LOT of merit and could definitely be a very interesting path to take Ahsoka on!

lmfao I finished replaying Inquisition and my fingers somehow slipped and I accidentally wrote a second chapter to this Solavellan one-shot I posted literally 9 years ago (almost exactly to the day) ☠️
