“Are you sure it won’t peel off?”

“I said no such thing.” Nonnie huffed, eyeing the toddler who seemed entirely oblivious to the distress that wrought terror into his mother’s lovely features. 

“I’ve been in a human body for less than a—” She paused, and sighed a beat after the boy cooed.

“...less than enough time to figure out how exactly man takes track of it!” Euphemie scowled as her manicured fingers attempted to make sense of what she could only describe as scales shedding from her darling boy’s cheeks. The lump in her neck bobbed as she swallowed in trepidation—dead, transparent skin—her boy’s skin—is on her fingers and she doesn’t know why. 

That’s a lie. She thinks she knows why but she can’t be sure—for once she hopes her uncertainty will be a good thing.

“Anyway. He seems to be ok. For now.” “And we don’t know how long that lasts!” 

“You’re talking to the wrong person.” Nonnie shrugged, and by reflex, almost clapped her hands and motioned for the little one to come closer—but she restrained herself at the moment, instead keeping her arms crossed atop the back of the chair from where she sat looking at the lady and lordling of the manor. The sun had only begun to rise and they had only found themselves in this questionably dire situation during breakfast time, and this sort of discord was not the kind Nonnie wished to begin her day with.

“I’ll have to talk to someone. Anyone—” She muttered, gathering the boy in her arms.

“That fellow Marcelloix. O-or—”

“Why not Dou?” She bit her lip, and tasted the tinge of rolanberry from the blossoming pink gloss she’d applied just a bell earlier.

“She…must be occupied.” “Not occupied enough for an emergency I’m sure.”

A pregnant pause fell between the two women, and somehow being fixated on Chanduciel’s bubbly smile made it worse. Years had passed since Douceline’s fateful return yet Euphemie had never truly wriggled out of the overreaching spotlight that her younger twin had made for herself—accidentally or not, something about it had been meant to happen, and the more she had discovered in the years following just pressed the knife deeper into the wound, for the more it became clear to all of them how fate must have played a hand in this somehow,

“I’ll give her a call.” Her free hand flew to the linkpearl tucked in her ear, but not without a begrudging—but not defeated—sigh.

Palpatine: My boy, Master Kenobi is lying to you!

Anakin: ?...yeah? He does that? Lying is Obi-Wan's favourite sport. Bant told me that he was dropped on his head by Master Qui-Gon when he was a child and Master Qui-Gon was really tall, so the fall shook loose some things in his brain and now Obi-Wan is allergic to giving straight answers. It took me 3 years to figure out his favourite colour. and his birthday. 5 to figure out that he's allergic to shellfish. I once told a restaurant that Obi-Wan can't have shrimp and he told me to "stop giving information to the enemy". I've made a game of it really.

Palpatine: *muttering under his breath* ok try using shrimp next time

Anakin: what?

Palpatine: Nothing!

Hey. Omegaverse AU where the rural peasant village is exclusively alphas and betas because omegas are a sort of monstrosity of the gods and nature with siren-call scents and long fangs perfect for ensnaring an alpha to ensure they can’t run away before the knot takes.

The rut cycle isn’t really A Thing in its full capacity either because of herbal medicine/magic/lack of omega pheromones BUT once every generation an alpha is chosen as a sacrifice to the omega of the woods outside their village as a peace agreement so the omega can sire the next generation of omegas without needing to raid the village.

The alpha, who has never entered a rut, who only knows of omegas as near-mythic beasts ready to eat an alpha alive as soon as the knot deflates. The alpha getting hit by their first encounter of an omega in heat’s scent and it immediately triggering their first rut.

The omega, who has been raised by the previous generation’s, who has known their entire lives their sole purpose is to mate and breed, is ready to kill this alpha as soon as its served its purpose, but their heart breaks watching this poor puppy fall to their knees in pain, knot already threatening to swell as they pant at the air like they’re trying to drink the omega’s scent, but it only makes the feelings of rut worse as they start to tear off their clothes and beg for the omega to appear from the shadows and have mercy upon them.

The omega descends, not like a black widow as they intended, but a source of comfort— promising they’ll make the pain go away, they’ll take care of the poor alpha, brushing away their tears and pushing them on their back so they can sink down on their lap.

They mate — of course they do, that’s the whole point of the treaty — but the omega doesn’t hate the ordeal by the end of it. Their alpha is sweet, and only touches them after permission is given, and it’s very clear from their scent they would never hurt the omega. They will be a good mate, the omega decides. And if that ever changes, they’ll be a good meal. Reblog, you agree

Woo got Linux working! On a related note I have gotten over any fear of breaking things through the command line and also can now roll back to an earlier system backup. Yes those are related. In my defense, breaking things in interesting ways is a great way to figure out what's actually going wrong.

Went to an early screening of Nosferatu yesterday, and couldn't stop grinning when in the adverts for upcoming films appeared "directed by Leigh Whannell" and "produced by James Wan" :)

The High Republic series confirmed that part of a Jedi youngling’s day in the creche are midday naps on little nap mats, and now the image of all our faves in youngling form curled up on the nap mat is living rent free in my head

Hi Kit! Hope your doing well! I just wanted your thoughts on something: what do you think about the difference in tone when come to top!Obi-Wan and top!Anakin? Top Anakin always has more dubcon/noncon, and even in fests, prompts always lean one way or the other. Like top!wan is always so much more wholesome, while the other ship is very…not lmao (love both btw)

oh this is an interesting ask and I’ve gone back and forth on an answer!! I can definitely see what you’re talking about but I also feel like there’s at least a bit of confirmation bias as well as actual truth to the observation (at least for me)

but my guess is that maybe it has something to do with either the characters themselves or the ways people like to write the characters together?

Anakin has moments of being sweet and out of control but ultimately well meaning in canon but he also has moments of being, well, evil. so different authors can lean into different interpretations of his character for their fic and have it still ring true to him.

and Obi-wan can be seen as being very in control and cool and collected in the face of anakin’s out of control (but Obi-wan’s canon self doesn’t have that flavor of darkness or evil, except in sith aus which are very au from the get go), and different authors can lean into that sense of control as meaning that he would be a (soft) healthy and wholesome dom to anakin’s needing submission.

and other authors can want to explore what an Obi-wan who has lost his control to a forceful anakin would look like, which may lend itself more to dub/non con fics?

character analysis is definitely not my thing tho and this is all really just vibes (and sounds much more binary than I like tbh) but I do feel like it boils down to, at least in canon fics, what obi-wan’s character is likely to do, and while anakin’s character runs the whole spectrum of emotions in the movies, Obi-wan’s thing is being in the light. so I can see it being more common for fics where he tops to be topping while in the light lmao whereas that’s not necessarily true for top anakin fics
