#they're coming sooooooon my loves

Ken Lemmons & Sylvie Gao

You know that my train could take you home, anywhere else is hollow I'm begging for you to take my hand, wreck my plans, that's my man

[andorerso]

*jingle jingle jingle* a noise at the door!! The doorbell! Outside, written in the snow: “hello lovely you! It is me, your secret Santa! Are you excited for Christmas? It’s my favourite time of year and I can’t wait!

What is it about rebelcaptain that keeps you coming back for more even five years later? What do you love most about them as a pairing and as individuals?

I’m excited to share with you your present sooooooon!”

I love Christmas for the food and the pretty lights and decorations, but at the same time, it's never that big a deal in our household so I don't have very strong feelings about it. I'm more happy about having a break from college to be honest, but I do really love the winter!

You're asking good questions, and there's a part of me that's like... I'm not sure I can explain it rationally but I'll try. I think a big part of why I'm still here is the fandom. A party isn't a party if you're alone, right? But there are so many lovely people here to share my enthusiasm and it definitely helps to keep my love for them alive. Another reason is that they didn't get a happy ending which is... it always awakens mixed feelings in me because on one hand, I wouldn't change the ending, as much as we as a fandom like to joke about it and pretend they didn't die, I do genuinely love the movie just as it is. But I also feel sad because they as people deserved better and I want to see them have something better even if it's just in fics. I was always really drawn to tragedies, characters with bad timing, and the whole "what could have been" aspect of it fascinates me. I also love that they're equals, that they make a good team (I love a good battle couple), that they're two sides of the same coin, that they both awaken something in each other they thought was long dead. I adore that they challenge each other's world views and influence each other to do better. I love that it wasn't a straightforward romance, even though I do consider their relationship to be romantic and you can fight me on that. I actually don't mind that they didn't kiss (I mean.... would I like to see it? Sure, yeah. But I also think it worked really well without it.) So yeah, idk, I just think they complement each other really well.

Individually, I like Jyn's arc from "it's not a problem if you don't look up" to "fuck you we're going to Scarif and you can't stop us." I like that she's a survivor, I like that she's harsh and withdrawn and angry, I like that she's also so passionate and chose to stand up and fight, that she made such a difference, that you can tell she has such a good heart despite outward appearances. With Cassian, I like that he was allowed to be morally grey, that we saw him battling with difficult choices. I'm always fascinated with characters who are willing to do the dirty work for something they believe in, and seeing them realize and struggle with the idea that maybe they've crossed a line is just so good. I like that he was willing to take a step back and admit that to himself and then do something to change that. I also like his cool gruff persona because it's so much fun to get glimpses beyond that mask and see the real him.

I'm very excited too <3 I'm sure I'm going to love it!

LJ! For the ask game - FRANK (cos FRANKIE might be too many lmao) ❤️

Oh my god Cee you are really pulling out the stops here! But I could never deny you bestie!

F. What stories are you planning for the future?

Can I just put in a list of winky faces? No? Well, several more installments of I Think of You, including returning to canon with Episode 3! Then a few more SW!Frankie asks, including much more spicy fun and feels. Then I've had ideas brewing for several oneshot/short series I want to return to - The Plan has a few follow-up stories, and...because I know how much you love Jack...Cognitive Dissonance has a follow-up planned. Sooooooon.

R. If you had to rewrite one of your stories from scratch, which one would it be? What would you do to it?

Oh man, you've got me here because I've forced the mentality of "it's finished, stop fucking with it" on myself after years of writing so I try not to dwell on what I would change in past stories. I might tweak parts of Pero and his Guerrera's story to stretch out a little longer, if I was going to pick anything. Though knowing them, even after getting frisky they're still going to be at each other's throats so there's plenty of material still there!

A. If you could rec a piece of music to accompany one of your fics, what would you pick? Why?

I gave a couple for Frankie and Din already, but let's grab one for Dieter shall we?

Dirty Mind - 3OH!3

Honestly I love all of 30H!3's discography for Dieter because it's so "sad party boy wants to be loved" but this one in particular is so fun and filthy. I don't think Dieter would listen to any of it, but it gives me the right vibes.

N. Anything you were planning to write that never got written?

Cee, if you could see my idea folder...

There are several stories I'm excited to write but haven't gotten there yet. A couple Ezra stories that have interesting premises (Bodyguard and Carnie Ezra haunt me on the daily), a post-apocalyptic Frankie story that might find its way over to Joel if it works better, a fun Max Lord one that was basically You've Got Mail that I fixated on for a week. They might still come but other things have taken all the brain space for now.

K. Who have you killed this year? Why did they have to die? 

Have...have I killed anyone? I killed a couple troopers in Good Company. Some collateral damage in Whiskey, Dark and Deep. I had a lot of hosts get shot up in Cognitive Dissonance...

I think the implied deaths might be the most interesting. I've mentioned both the mother and father of our girl in I Think of You, but they've both been dead for a while before Din shows up. But they still have their influences, which we all appreciate. They didn't HAVE to die, but...it's Tatooine. Life isn't easy there unfortunately. But our girl holds them in her heart always.

Thank you for getting my brain working Cee! I adore you!
