hey, how about your Echo headcanons? 👀

*rubs hands together*Thank you for asking this. Please, be prepared.

Headcanon A:  realistic Echo's a badass but it took some time for him to reach the level of badass we got glimpses of in the TBB. He's definitely a little awkward in the beginning (you all remember him just pointing out why they've got those regulations not to go outside right after poor Cutup got eaten???) but once Echo gained confidence, he definitely earned that kama.

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious The man can snark with the best of them. Pre-Skako Minor Echo kept it wrapped up most of the time, only revealing his skills in the art of Snark around those who he felt most comfortable with.

TBB-Echo doesn't hold back as much he once did but he still saves some of his best comments for moments he knows they'll cause the biggest impact.

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends There are two heart-crushing headcanons I've got that both are tied on how Echo dies. 1) He dies during a battle while trying to free more clones. He's the last Domino to fall and once Echo's gone, so is the memory of them. Maybe, between his second last and last breath, Echo thinks of them, the squad that did it despite all the odds, but also the squad that gave him a new home.

2) The cybernetics take him out. Something gets misaligned, a piece of wiring disconnects, and Echo's gone. He never sees it coming, nor feels it. One moment he's talking and walking, the next he's permanently offline.

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own. ECHO GETS TO LIVE A LONG AND A HAPPY LIFE SURROUNDED BY THOSE WHO HE CARES FOR THE MOST. (T_T)

howzer/keeli 🎲?

A kiss between the prettiest bois on Ryloth? Sure thing! Don't recall if I've written about them before but here goes nothing!

** **

21. WILDCARD! Dealer’s choice :) -> 30. A kiss to the palm of the hand

With a grimace, Keeli carefully pulled off his left glove in order not to aggravate the wound. He still hissed when the blood-covered material ripped painfully off, having dried and stuck itself against Keeli's palm. He stared at the abrasion, starting at the base of his little finger, and ran neatly down toward his wrist. The red edges had tiny pieces of lint stuck on them but a closer look revealed that the wound itself was relatively clean.

The glove removal had caused the wound to start oozing a little but not worryingly so.

Good. It meant that Keeli could take care of this himself.

Dropping the ruined glove on the bunk, Keeli kept his hand elevated as he pulled out the small first aid kit from his backpack. He had taken out the disinfectant spray when the door slid open.

Looking up, Keeli saw Howzer step inside. The other Captain started to nod as a greeting but stopped when he spotted Keeli's hand.

"What happened?" Howzer asked, placing his helmet on the top bunk opposite Keeli's bunk bed. He wasted no time sitting down, facing Keeli as he reached out to take a hold of his hand.

Keeli huffed as he let Howzer do that. "A minor rappelling accident during a practice; ended up sliding down the cliff side and chafed my hand against the rock before I stopped falling."

Frowning, Howzer plucked the spray out of Keeli's other hand and used it on the abrasion. He frowned harder when Keeli hissed a little when the disinfectant stung.

"And how did that happen?" Howzer asked, serious.

"Uncertain, but I didn't feel like climbing up again to find out. I ordered Solmu to examine all the equipment just in case."

Humming, Howzer nodded as he put the spray away to pick up a wipe to clean away the lint. He used the spray again after that, the tips of Keeli's fingers twitching when the cool liquid came in contact with the abrasion.

The two Captain's sat there silent, Keeli's attention was drawn between Howzer's hands as they picked up a bacta patch from the first aid kit and his face, the deep lines of worry so much deeper than they had been two months ago.

Keeli wanted to smooth them away, all too aware how the same lines decorated his face.

Suddenly Howzer stopped, the hand holding the bacta patch hovering above Keeli's, Keeli made a soft inquiring sound. Howzer didn't reply, just stared intensely at the abrasion, the lines red and puffy. He felt Howzer's fingers tighten their hold on his wrist and then Keeli was pulled forward.

Without a word, Howzer raised Keeli's hand, palm up, as he bent slightly.

His lips were dry and a little chapped, but they were warm and gentle.

📓

That kriffing TCW Fantasy AU with Plo/Wolffe as main ship with knights and magic and political prisoners as well as semi-scandalous love affairs.

I've dreamed about that fic for years and have managed to write some notes, created a whole fucking family tree for the royal Fetts and written short, 3-5 sentence long stories that hint to it but the actual fic itself?

Nothing. Not a single word.

[valkeakuulas]

would you share something about Juhannus Spells? I think I know a little about this one already and it’s so interesting!

Juhannus spells is a fic about a lonely trooper using a genuine midsummer spell to find their true love.

And that poor lonely trooper is Crys.

“Are any of you going try your luck with love?” asked Korhonen as he came to stand beside Crys at the camp. Crys startled a little when the unexpected question. “I’m sorry, what did you say?” he asked, a little embarrassed as he turned towards the Pessapolonian. Korhonen, who was an older and slightly portly man, didn’t seem to mind that Crys hadn’t been paying attention. He only smiled widely, the deep wrinkles in the corners of his grey eyes revealing a lifetime of happiness. “It’s midsummer, young man,” Korhonen explained matter-of-factly, “the Lady of the Sun and the Moon Lords are dancing in the sky, ready to bless those who seek love. If you don’t know any proper spells, I’ve got one that’s absolutely foolproof.” Crys blinked slowly, processing what the old man was saying. “Spells?” he repeated, even more baffled. Sure, he had heard the locals talking about midsummer, their plans for feasts, and other odd traditions they’d be doing tonight. And, yeah, Crys had heard more than once some of them mentioning different love and/or good luck spells to the troopers. Korhonen nodded vigorously, clearly not put out by Crys’ confusion. “Yes. I used the same spell 47 years ago when I was just your age, and the Lady and her consorts guided my hubby Eino to me.” He pointed toward another old natborn sitting next to a firepit with a mixed group of troopers and Pessapolonians, the man’s beard just as grey as Korhonen’s hair. Crys held back the urge to correct the old natborn that about his misconception when it came to ages and clone troopers in general, so he merely nodded. The idea of such an advanced culture using weird, outdated traditions to find a spouse was a weird dichotomy in Crys’ opinion. Then again, the highest-ranking officer in Crys’ battalion was a warrior monk who channeled galaxy-wide energy inhabiting his very cells and who easily managed feats that seemed pure magic to a regular trooper. Just during this very campaign Crys had seen General Kenobi control and redirect an actual rockfall.

for the kink meme:

post-anaxes Echo wireplay…

and i don’t know to pair him with, so who are your top pairings for this? Anyone besides the bad batch boys? (not that i don’t love them tho)

Wireplay, eh? 🤔

Hmm... It wasn't my go-to smut when was in TF fandom but I know enough that I could make it work by combining things from here and there. Would need some planning first as well as diving back to some of my older bookmarks for inspiration.

My top partners for him are, surprise surprise, are either Fives or Rex. Am very simple that way. xD

Last Line Challenge

Rules: In a new post, show the last line you wrote and tag as many people as there are words (or as many as you feel like).

Got tagged by @trudemaethien and actually opened another WIP to write something there so that can show something else than just lines from the same fic over and over again. -_-’’

This is from my WIP called Juhannus spells, a sequel-ish thing for one of my Kinktober entries. 

The crow’s feet in the corners of Korhonen’s eyes deepened as the expression on the old man’s face turned into downright mischievous one as he squinted at Crys. “Hope you don’t mind getting naked and wet, young man,” he mused, much to Crys’ alarm.

Tagging.... No one. Not this time.

oops that meme was meant to be on anon, not that i mind having my name attached.

…my bad? 😅😂😂😂

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Whoops, too late now xD

[valkeakuulas]

🤩🎉✨

🤩 Who is your favorite character to write? Hmm... Rex? Wolffe? Cody? Ratchet? Sunstreaker? Sideswipe? I honestly don't know. Perhaps the character who is my favorite one at the moment?

🎉 What leads you to consider a fic a success? I'm rather boring and gonna say that I consider a fic successful if it gets at least two comments ^^'''

✨ Give you and your writing a compliment. Go on now. You know you deserve it. Um, err... *cricket sounds* ... I don't mind writing about different ships if someone asks me to?

[valkeakuulas]

Can I ask for Fives headcanons, unless someone has beat me to it? :D

No one has asked anything about Fives. You're the only person to even ask them headcanons besides Trudemathien. 😂

Headcanon A:  realistic This is heavily inspired by this lovely art by @necrophatic but I believe Fives has a tattoo with the CT numbers of the Domino Squad. It's his way in making sure that the Domino Squad will be with him all the way to the end. (... why does that sound like it should be in C part?)

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious The tattoo on his temple? It was a dare, given to Fives the first time them boys got to taste something with promilles for the first time.

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends OK, so. I wrote this fic two years ago where Fives hallucinates Echo while he's on the run in Coruscant. I still want to hold onto that headcanon that Fives saw Echo during that time and even "talked" with him, and the Not-Echo even offered some advice in return. On some level Fives knows Echo's not actually there (it's hinted in the fic) but having Echo there brought Fives comfort when he needed it.

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own. Dead? Who dead? Nobody's dead. Nuh uh. That's him right there with Rex & Anakin, decking the angry stick (also known as Crosshair) so hard it sent him soaring through the air like a spear made of alder, and who's definitely not ugly-crying as he laughs at Echo's headache joke.
