Late night wip!

Minor update on war-torch/Flammagentius design I used the Roman lorica segmentata as a reference for this design. See my previous post on this character wip for Flammagentius' future design!

Lorica segmentata is made of strips of circular metal bands attached together with leather straps.

i am thinking how much poorer, how much less colorful the world would be if art was only made by "professionals." if all the music, all the stories, all the sketches & paintings & craftwork of the world was created only by the small category of people able to make a decent living from their art. imagine if the only people allowed to create were the experts & the renowned & those aspiring to the top. what a grey world that would be. how much joy would be bleached away! i love you people who create for the sake of creating, i love you artists who do art for tiny audiences, i love you people who make things even just for one person, even just for themselves, even if no one's watching, thank you thank you thank you for decorating the world in which we all exist

dmcl drawerfic illust but now it isn't a sketch anymore.

in this fic, the more they like each other the worse they are to each other. in hilda's words (earlier in the same chapter):

"You care for him. He cares for you. But that's too simple for you, isn't it?" Hilda remarked, her expression somber. “I bet you were more comfortable when you were both indifferent to each other."

Rex: I know you work with Cody sometimes, but who do you guys report to?

Hunter: Hmm... good question. Can't say I've got an answer.

My headcanons about the reporting:

Tech writes up a full mission report after every single mission the squad completes during the Clone Wars, even though the higher ups stopped asking the squad for detailed written debriefings almost two years ago, after their first few ops.

(Echo started helping to write up the reports when he first joined the squad, only to be absolutely flabbergasted and lowkey horrified that the generals/commanders never ask for the reports, they just want to know whether a mission CF99 was assigned to ended as a success or failure.)

The reason why no one ever asks for the reports is because, after Commander Cody first called in Clone Force 99 for a tricky operation involving rescuing a dozen key hostages from an overwhelming amount of Separatist forces, Obi Wan was the one who reviewed the exceptionally professional and detailed report describing the squad of 4 clones rescuing the hostages by rappelling smack dab into the middle of the enemy forces and wiping out two entire battalions of droids (including the tactical droids) within 30 seconds with a crazy plan involving one bomb (the bomb wasn't even used on the droids themselves, it was used as a distraction), a knife, a rifle, two small mirrors, the Star Wars equivalent of duct tape, and "CT-9903's impulsive nature."

"Cody, are you sure this mission report is... accurate?" Obi Wan asks in concern.

"Yes, General. Three of the hostages corroborated the story even before the report itself came in. And CT-9902 - the one they call Tech, who writes the reports - apparently records everything, too, so I can verify..."

"No need. I ask only because I thought orders were for this to be a stealth operation."

"Right, well, the sergeant said his squad decided the most effective way to fulfill the "stealth" stipulation would be to not leave any droids operational, so the Separatists will never know exactly what happened."

Thus Obi Wan, realizing the sheer madness that would likely ensue should Anakin ever get his hands on one of these full reports - Anakin doesn't need ANY more chaotic ideas or incentive to go rogue - decides to simply record the mission outcome as "all objectives successfully met." The other generals (and, by extension, their commanders) soon pick up on Obi Wan's strategy and adopt it themselves, though for slightly different reasons (because imagine reporting that a squad using a plan called "rockslide" succeeded where a company + Jedi could not).

And so whenever Clone Force 99 is given an assignment, they are only asked in the debriefing whether said mission has been a success or failure.

(And then Cody calls in the Bad Batch for a mission that ends up involving Anakin, and Obi Wan is just sigh "I suppose this was inevitable. Yes of course this mission ended with Trench's entire fleet blowing up. No, Anakin, I will NOT recommend that Clone Force 99 be assigned strictly to the 501st. We're trying to keep the galaxy intact.")

Magic wars leave behind bodies, and occasionally, spells. Cast but not detonated, you can find them glowing softly at the bottom of streams that run through old battlefields.

Omg. I didn't know Nic Cage was a fucking intellectual.

These comments are funny though.

Like listen.

I know star wars and star trek have historically always been rivals. But I always saw it as a playful tongue in cheek oh you silly little nerd rivalry.

With sexual tension. Some kissing. Maybe tongue.

I didn't realize there are people who actually take it seriously still, like some life or death thing.

Lmfao.

Qui-Gon is so wombat coded to me...

The immovable object of it all. Densest fucking animal. Does not give a single shit about anything, including your puny human rules. 75% chance it just walks off being hit by a car but 100% chance it totals the car every time. No matter if it survives, it will be causing you problems after the fact. Qui-Gon Jinn behaviour.

Also they have the same hair colour. Are you all seeing my vision.
