Oh boy here I go turning my obsessions into Homestuck AGAIN

Yup this is a thing now, I decided, they're also all from Tatooine because that's the planet I'm currently obsessed with.

John is a Twi'lek, and on Tatooine, yeah, if you're familiar with Star Wars you already know he's a slave. He lives in Jabbas palace ready to help with laborial tasks, like murder, theft and anything else a crime boss would want.

Jade is a Jawa, a funny little creature that likes messing around with technology she finds. Though more of a creative type than a haggler, if her circle is selling you a droid chances are it's actually functioning as intended.

Dave is a Tusken Raider, yeah, this design is definitely the least recognizable as either Dave or a Tusken, but that is what Tusken children dress like. Anyway considering that Tuskens are only considered "grown up" after slaying a fucking dragon I feel like the upbringing was similar enough.

R0-S3, or just "Esthree" is a modified protocol droid, specifically modified with a head covering that purpose is unknown to most, but appears to prevent the ever prevalent memory-wipe, at least in any significant fashion.

I love twi'leks so much. i love twi'lek ocs so much. I literally have mine and I love her so much but I feel like I never talk about her as much as mari. like zeeta is actually so beautiful and so edgy and badass and cool and I need to make more art of her in situations because shes awesome and I love her.

What's your opinion on Twi'leks?

Ooooh I like their designs! (I even have a Twi'lek OC!) although they're super hard for me to draw correctly, lol

Given that it seems like is a species super sexualized (both in-universe and out of universe) I'm glad there are a few characters like Ayla or the Twi'lek revolution in Clone Wars that give more in-depth about them.

I would love to see more their culture and biology more fleshed out, tbh. Like what particular biological abilities they have, that differ from a human? Give me moreeeee

Maybe not the eyepatch thing but the rest of it

I have to stop making little guys. I love all of them. This is a travelling performance troupe

have you ever seen a woman so beautiful you started crying

[maulfucker]

it's so so sad that the aliens in the original and even the prequel trilogies look so weird and fucked up (which is great) and then newer stuff makes everything so smooth and human-faced. where's the meat greebles and nonsensical snouts

A jedi on the run post Order 66 and the bounty hunter who tracks him down and accidentally falls in love with him.

My current assumption is that someone in costuming or similar managed to sneak it past Disney? That the people actually working on the show did it on purpose, but that the execs didn't know enough to have it censored.

I cannot stop thinking about accidentally(?) trans twi'lek dude from Book of Boba Fett.

Actually I should probably explain:

Twi'leks have a few elements of sexual dimorphism unique to their species:

Lekku count: either gender can have one set of lekku, but only males can have two sets (example: Orn Free Taa)

Foreheads: Males have bony plating at their upper foreheads and crowns that females do not. Females also all wear a leather, fabric, or metal headband to cover their foreheads, especially the join of lekku and scalp.

Ears: Males have ears. Females have auditory cones.

Twi'lek from Book of Boba Fett has auditory cones, not ears. This could technically mean a few things (e.g. maybe the character is genetically XX but has an endocrine disorder that overproduces testosterone), but my immediate thought was definitely "trans dude that got top surgery, but decided doing a surgery on his audio cones was way, way too risky on account of being a major sensory organ instead of just breasts."
