#thrawns bffs are THE topic

[sternutaries]

Always happy point out even more facetts of that intimidating looking silly man(~‾▽‾)~

And yes. You're so right about those examples for him being autistic. Also just generally his way of speaking that is described as incredibly offensive to newly introduced characters just because he has the audacity to literally. speak. his. mind. No filters.

Omg, yes! XD Thrawn is the living Uno reverse card at any type of cat (since as a cat owner I can confirm that they do actually wake you up at 3am just for food or just to meow or even fart into your face and carry on with their lives). Especially since he's often described as working way too much and into the nights anyways he'd totally be the one to accidentally traumatise the animals. Imagine being a loth-cat, just waking up for seemingly no reason until you look around and find two red glowing eyes staring at you without blinking like ◖(● o ●)◗"cuddles?"

Okay fair (I'd still love to see it) but I can totally imagine that happening. For the record, Samakro is laughing (and filming) in the background. XD

Omg, Sabine joining the giggle gang! So up for it! Even though I feel like Sabine's and Ahsoka's energy would also unite to the judgmental front Thrawn has to face everytime he does a n y t h i n g. It's like the angel and the devil on his shoulders but instead he has two sets of friends, both suggesting horrendous things while arguing about Nutella with or without butter (for the record: without.).

And I totally go with your thoughts of Thrawn usually making sure to stay professional but slipping under certain circumstances! XD (and when he does, HE DOES.)

And so happy to be able to help! Also have fun reading those, he starts adopting an army of space geckos halfway through, he's so silly, I love him. XD<3

After reading Treason again I just wanna say that I'm convinced Thrawn was buzzing with joy when Ezra decided to yeet both of them into the Unknown Regions.

OMG I HAD FORGOTTEN ABOUT SOME OF THOSE MOMENTS!!!

That’s right! And I 100% agree he’s autistic. He. Can’t not be. Social interactions and the weirdness of politics confound the man, and YES! The flora and fauna hobby *cough* obsession *cough* were like the way Zahn put it in bold and highlighted it.

Thrawn would also totally decide to visit his animals at like 3am or some ridiculous time and be surprised when they are all asleep. And it would be super cute if the skywalkers each had one assigned to them!

And I doubt they’d put this in the show, tho it would make it so much more realistic if they did. But like there is no way Thrawn didn’t slip up once. And my bet is that there was a meeting where he used some Wild Space lingo that Wli told him never to use, like calling krayt spit or something, and Eli just has to sit there, red in the face, and no longer present in the conversation, and Thrawn is just oblivious.

YES, I’m down for calling them the giggle gang! I feel like if they kept the spirit of the characters totally intact instead of keeping to the seriousness the show probably needs, they’d let them be that amused by Thrawn’s daily doings. I can’t wait until Sabine shows up and yells at him for doing something stupid politically. She might have to join the giggle gang after that too.

And he strikes me as the kind of guy who’d be totally verbally clean at work, but as soon as someone who doesn’t know the rules shows up, all bets are off and he’s got zero fear of using particularly colorful language. I wonder if that’s how he slips up one day. Uses Wild Space curse words, and Ezra stares at him very confused, and Eli’s just beet red. And it would be fantastic if the slip up moment came with a thick Wild Space accent just like you said!!! That would be hysterically funny!!!! And I had totally forgotten about Mokivj! You right! He totally did that for the amusement factor.

Heir to the empire trilogy it is then! Thanks for the suggestion!

OMG, yeah! Thurfian is thrilled Thrawn is back. His favorite punching bag is back on the menu. And he’s not even a little bit surprised that Thrawn’s still shit with politics.

Even with Eli, Ezra, Ahsoka, and Sabine’s help he still managed to fuck up every political scenario he gets a little too close to. Ahsoka tried to channel Padme when that happens, but she still has Anakin’s “if it broke too bad fix it with your lightsabers”, tendencies, so it only kinda works. And you exactly right, that would end with Sabine doing everything she can to keep Ahsoka from ending Thrawn then and there. Tho Sabine would also be pained because this man used to be her enemy, but she’d also be thrilled to share some of her Mandalorian coping tactics with Ahsoka “I’m no Jedi” Tano. Even if it’s finding a place far from people where they can just beat the crap out of the rocks and icicles (if they ever make it all the way to Csilla as a group) to feel better. Also, both of those women need sisters to vent with. Serious necessity of life as a female, not gonna lie.

And that would be the best thing for Ahsoka to bond with Thrawn over!!! And it would be so nice to see Ahsoka’s feral space child side come out full swing again!!! And she totally would, after she recovered from the initial shock of “former enemy now fangirling over her battle tactics” moment!!! That would be AMAZING!!!

One of those days Ahsoka is gonna hear that old familiar laugh and turn around to see force ghost Anakin (and let’s be honest, I swear Fives is a force ghost too, he was 100% hanging off of Echo and egging him on during that food fight in Aftermath) laughing his ass off at their antics. And then he gonna help them make more of a mess. The only one who knows Ahsoka hasn’t lost it the first time that happens (since no one else can see them) is Ezra who’s just shocked that Jedi guy from the helpful lightsaber training holos has suddenly appeared in the room next to them. Queue Ezra fangirl moment. Ahsoka doesn’t have the heart to tell him that same guy was also Vader.

Meanwhile Eli worries that he’s turning into an old cat lady because keeping Thrawn and his +4 rebel bffs out of trouble feels like herding cats!!! Especially with the Thrawn just forgets to eat thing!!! You so right!!! I bet that saved Faro’s sanity after she figured out why Eli has secret snack drawers in every room she walks into. Eli probably misses the days he’d walk in and find Faro standing by the drawer chucking bags of space crackers at Thrawn’s face and ordering him to eat all of them before she talks to him again, using the old “I’ll call the medic, who outranks us all, if I have to” card.

Speaking of cats 😸😋Hehehehehe, why would I change? Pets is my favorite topic of all time!!!! I’m that person who goes to parties to hang with the cat/dog. I love this bonding over pets and blue alien geniuses too!!!!
