i just think
that venom!fox
so jedi are symbiotes? and there’s a commander compatibility thing during the cloning process (it’s about force channelling and strict mental control and entirely destroying one’s sense of physical and mental agency uwu) so all the commanders are trained
and fox is very high in the testing, naturally! that’s how you don’t get decommissioned! and utterly terrified about the concept of losing himself. he and cody curl together in a single pod and promise to remember each other after the jedi make them forget
cody gets assigned to kenobi after alpha 17 can’t host anymore
bly to secura
ponds and neyo to mace
and so on
but fox gets the guard and his freedom and he has to pretend disappointment to the civvies and pretend joy to his siblings and the whole time he oscillates between the two and wonders desperately what is wrong with him
and then he finds jedi soup in an alley on coruscant and he and quinlan vos go eat the heads of a dozen senators

Some Thoughts
You know, Jedi and Sith, the Force, and lightsabers are all well and good, but that has never been the primary reason I am such a fan of Star Wars. For me it's all about the great battles, both space and ground, as well as all the starships, vehicles, and other technology. This is one of the reasons I enjoyed Rogue One so much. Apart from one (admittedly very cool) scene with Darth Vader, we never even see a lightsaber. Not only is that completely fine with me, but I think we need more just like it.
One thing that always irks me is people joking about how "stormtroopers can't hit anything". Yes, it is undeniably true that we see a whole bunch of missed shots throughout the OT. However, it's also true that no Imperial grunt is ever going to be the one who takes down one of our heroes who is so integral to the plotline. How would the Empire have achieved the fearsome reputation it possessed throughout the Galactic Civil War if it had nothing but incompetent officers and amateur marksmen? How would the war have dragged on for as long as it did if that were the case? It simply wouldn't have happened.
All of that said, what I would really like to see at some point in the (hopefully near) future is a series that really gets into the nitty gritty of ground and space combat in the Galactic Civil War. I envision it having a Band of Brothers feel and ideally it would follow both sides at different points. What I would really want it to do is show the Galactic Empire for the fearsome foe it actually is, as well as the fact that ultimately what it took for the Rebel Alliance to achieve victory is a great deal of sacrifice on the part of very dedicated common soldiers. Just like what we see in Rogue One. Who else agrees that this is something they would like to see? Feel free to share your thoughts!

SINDAY HEADCANONS
Tumblr media
I was revenge tagged by someone <_<
So here’s Blakk:
lust
👀 - ever had intercourses with more than one partner?
Yes, depending on how all the “canon” bits tie in.  It’s a bit flexible, but there have been a small, special handful. ;) 
👙 - do they have some particularly weird kink?
Nothing too bizarre that’s been explored in canon.  He does like dominant partners, and he might like being tied up.  He might not know much about his personal kinks at the moment.  <_<
💌 - do you enjoy one night stands/having fuckbuddies?
It’s not typically his thing.  He prefers an established relationship or emotional connection first, but there could be exceptions, especially in the line of duty. <_<
🔌 - do they own any sexual toys?
Nope.
💵 - would they accept money in exchange of sex/sexual favors?
Nope.  Blakk has too much self-respect to sell himself that way, and he has other skills he can use if things get tight.
gluttony
🥐 - are they able to cook?
Not in the slightest. :’D
🌭 - what’s the biggest meal they had recently?
Recently?  Probably just a ration bar. XD
🍙 - do they enjoy foreign food?
No.  But most likely yes if you can convince him to try it...
Blakk has special ration bars that are formulated for his specific nutrition needs, so they’re really everything and all he needs.  He also thinks most food preparation is suspicious and unsanitary, and has a low opinion of most locations (and especially aliens) to properly prepare food fit for human consumption. 
🌶️ - can they handle spicy food?
Absolutely not.  100% would die.
🍎 - is their diet balanced or tend to skip meals/overeat often?
Yes and no.  It’s scientifically balanced per the ration bars.  If you’re of the opinion that you need actual foods (like most are), then it’s not.  Aside from that, Blakk does skip meals a lot due to mission work.  Sometimes he just doesn’t have the time or opportunity to eat.
envy
🤑 - did they ever steal valuable objects from someone?
He’s certainly commandeered or confiscated objects in the line of duty.  He hadn’t actually stolen anything valuable until Anne ( @kaosstar​ ) got involved. Terrible influence. :’D
🖤 - do they wish to have someone else’s partner?
Yes and no.  Blakk has some major regrets, but he doesn’t consider himself someone that anyone would want to have a commitment with, so although he feels left out and unwanted, he never believes he has a chance in the first place.  So it’s not something he thinks about.  And he has too much respect for other people’s choices and free will for the idea of “having” someone else’s partner to have much meaning to him.  It’s not something you can either have or wish for if they’re already with someone else, in Blakk’s mind.
🤷 - did they ever ruin something they couldn’t have out of spite?
Nope.  Blakk doesn’t really get spiteful or vindictive, at least not in terms of taking it out on a physical object.
I suppose you could say he’s ruined relationships and other people’s feelings with unintentionally spiteful words, though. He’s very good at that. :’D
greed
🏋️ - do they own a secret place for their most prized possessions?
Kind of.  Blakk keeps a secret lockbox with important documents and other items on the secure banking world of Telerath.  But they’re not prized possessions in terms of sentimentality or functionality ... those he just stores on Saare’s ship, a Sith who his canon storyline intertwines with (and who might very well be his future SO <_< ).
😍 - what’s the most important material object they own?
He doesn’t really have one.  He has gear that is crucial but replaceable, and even his sentimental items are replaceable in the sense that there isn’t one item that he’s singularly attached to.  Maybe the most important would be his mouse bot, Sparks, if it hadn’t gotten cruelly destroyed. <_<
😮 - do they feel like they own someone? their partner, their friends…
Nope.
wrath
💣 - do they get angry easily?
Angry is Blakk’s middle name. :’D
🗡️ - have they fought someone in the past?
Yes!
💉 - what’s the worst injury they had to deal with?
Somebody (Derrick @kaosstar​ ) shot him point blank in the chest.  It’s a miracle he actually survived.
👊 - did they ever punch someone?
Yes.  Many times!
💀 - would they ever consider killing someone?
Yes, and Blakk definitely has.
🔪 - did they ever risked death?
Every day.
pride
💪 - what’s their ability they brag about the most?
He doesn’t really brag, except for the fact that he thinks he’s definitely better than you at anything blasters, knives, or electronics. :P
👑 - what’s the possession they brag about the most?
He doesn’t brag about possessions at all.
🌟 - do they enjoy being at the center of attention?
No, Blakk hates it.
👁️ - what do they think about their appearence?
He thinks he’s definitely not cute.
👿 - how do they take criticism?
Not well.
sloth
💤 - how much do they usually sleep?
It varies.  Blakk has chronic sleep issues in that his daily schedule is all over the place and it’s rare that he has normal sleep at normal times for normal lengths.  He often catnaps lightly throughout the day, and he often has terrible nightmares that disturb anything longer than that.  However, there are times when he’s either so exhausted or feeling safe enough that he will sleep like a rock until late the next day.
🛏️ - are they likely do to any activity without complain?
Generally, yes, if it’s mission-related or something that simply needs to be done.  But if it’s directed by anyone he’s salty about and not mission related, or if there are things involved he particularly dislikes, he will complain until your ears fall off. :’D
😪 - did they ever convince someone to do the hard work for them?
Nope.  Even for distasteful work, Blakk will do things himself.  He doesn’t even like to ask for help.

Note
can you list some of your favorite anakin or obi wan quotes from books?
This is going to hurt, anon. But you asked for it so… enjoy :P
Obi-Wan turned his back on the open door. He climbed out of thehomestead and trudged away. The sand sucked at his boots. He felt the wind pick up in thesudden way he’d become accustomed to on Tatooine. Sand pelted his cheeks. This was his lifenow. To protect a baby who didn’t know him, might never know him. To have noone by his side, ever again. To be Master to none, to have his life linked tono one.T o coexist with memories that he could not live with. To have thememory of Anakin be like living fire in his gut. To get up every day, to stand,to watch, to live, when so many had died. And keep on walking. [Jude Watson’s TheLast One Standing]
Obi-Wan indulged in his own swift smile. Yes. Theywere indeed working in sync. And he realized then how much he’d missed this.Had missed Anakin and the way they could read each other without the need forclumsy words. They were a better team than even he and Qui-Gon had been. Andwhile he understood completely the need for them to unravel theirpartnership—not only because of the war, but also because Anakin was a JediKnight now, with his own responsibilities, still … he felt sharpregret. Working without Anakin was likeworking half blind. [Karen Miller.Star Wars: Clone Wars Gambit: Stealth]
[Anakin] hadworried that Obi-Wan did not have room for him in his heart.But Shmi’s smile rose in Anakin’s mind. Hearts have infinite room, my son. Itwas one of her favorite sayings. Anakin sighed. He wished he could combineObi-Wan’s cool judgement with his mother’s goodness. Someday. Maybe his Masterwould trust him enough to let him tangle again with the Sith. Perhaps he wouldnever have a Master-Padawan relationship as deep and trusting as Obi-Wan hadwith Qui-Gon. Perhaps Obi- Wan kept his as a Padawan in order to fulfill adying wish. But maybe it didn’t matter how it happened. He should not focus onwhat he didn’t have. He had this. This was his. And that was something. Hewould work hard. He would be a greatPadawan. And Obi-Wan would come to love him. He would make him do so. [JudeWatson. The Trail of the Jedi ]
Anakin had always hated sand. It was one of the manythings about his Padawan that Obi-Wan understood better now that Anakin wasdead. That was the horror of losingsomeone: understanding came too late. [Jude Watson’s The Last One Standing]
Blade-to-blade, they were identical. After thousandsof hours in lightsaber sparring, they knew each other better than brothers,more intimately than lovers; they were complementary halves of a singlewarrior. This was not Sith against Jedi. This was not light against dark orgood against evil; it had nothing to do with duty or philosophy, religion ormorals. It was Anakin against Obi-Wan.Personally. Just the two of them, and the damage they had done to each other. [MatthewStover’s Revenge of the Sith]
 The suns had determined this at the dawn of creation.Brothers, they were, until the younger sun showed his true face to the tribe.It was a sin. The elder sun attempted to kill his brother, as was only proper.But he failed. Burning, bleeding, the younger sun pursued his sibling acrossthe sky. The wily old star fled for the hills and safety, but it was his fatenever to rest again. For the younger brother had only exposed his face. Theelder had exposed his failure. And others had seen it—to their everlastingsorrow. [John Jackson Miller. Kenobi: Star Wars]
Anakin was still alive in Obi-Wan’s mind. Obi-Wan wasengaged with him so intensely that he expected his apprentice to walk over oneof those shifting sand dunes and grin at him again. Or scowl. He’d takeanything. Any mood, any defiance. Just to see him again. [Jude Watson’s TheLast One Standing]
“A healthy slave is a slave who dreams of escape,”Krayn said. “That is what security is for,” Nor Fik said. “I amnot suggesting that you pamper them. Feed them enough to keep going. When yourship is struggling, you must conserve your fuel, but reach yourdestination.” Obi-Wan felt revulsion rise deep within him. Krayn and NorFik were talking about living beings as if they were machines to be maintained.You’re the one who doesn’t understand!Anakin’s tortured words filled his brain. His Padawan had been right. He hadn’tunderstood. He couldn’t understand the depths of Anakin’s feeling. As a child,Anakin had lived every day with the knowledge that his life meant nothing. Thathe was a possession, not a living being. Obi-Wanstruggled to maintain his calm. His heart cried out to move, to get on a shipand go to Nar Shaddaa. [Star Wars Jedi Quest Path to Truth by Jude Watson]
Obi-Wan nodded.There was something about this boy that wound around his heart.During the course of their missions together he had seen firsthand Anakin’simpulsive generosity, his loyalty, his thirst to learn. Remember, Padawan, thatmost beings are essentially unknowable. There are mysteries at the heart thatcan surprise even those who think they know themselves. Obi-Wan turned away sothat Anakin could not see his wry smile. Qui- Gon was in his head so often. Itwas as though his presence was so powerful that he could never die. Obi-Wan wasgrateful for it. He missed his friend and Master with a keenness that had notdiminished with the years. [Star Wars Jedi Quest Path to Truth by Jude Watson]
 There were tears on Anakin’s cheeks, he could feelthem. He wasn’t ashamed. He wasn’t goingto apologize to anyone, not even Yoda, for caring enough about Obi-Wan to weepfor him. [Karen Miller. Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Wild Space ]
Anakin came awake and blinked owlishly in the warmcabin lights. “You were dreaming,” Obi-Wan said.“Not me. The ship,” Anakin said. “Or maybe we weredreaming together. We were traveling around the galaxy, seeing wonderfulthings. It was so great to just be free. You were there with us. I think youwere having fun, too.” Anakin held outhis hand, fingers spread, and Obi-Wan met it with his own hand. [Greg Bear’sRogue Planet~]
 What else had he done there?Obi-Wan didn’t know. He knew only from that day on, a shadow began to engulfAnakin, something Obi-Wan couldn’t penetrate. He had tried to talk to Anakin aboutit, but his Padawan had brushed off his questions. He realized now that Anakinhad begun to confide in Padmé instead. They had married in secret, and the marriagehad been part of the reason Obi-Wan had felt a divide between him and hisPadawan. If Anakin had told him of the marriage, he would have understood. Notapproved, but understood. He had been tempted once, too. He had loved, too. Ifonly Anakin had confided in him. If only … And why hadn’t he? Because Obi-Wanhad failed him. If he’d been a better Master, if he’d had more of Qui-Gon’skindness and wisdom … Anakin might have approached him, have felt free to saywhatever he was thinking or feeling …If …They had flown together, wingtipto wingtip. They had relied on each other. He was more daring when Anakin waswith him. Anakin had taught him how totake risks. But in the end he had lost everything. [Jude Watson’s The LastOne Standing]
 Obi-Wan reached out and closed Anakin’s fingers overthe stone. “I hope it will be with you always to remind you of Qui-Gon andme, of our deep regard for you.” Anakin’s smile lit his face. “I’lltreasure it. Thank you, Master.” [Jude Watson. The Way of the Apprentice]
 Soon they would be ending their journey together. Theyboth knew it. He had never had to bid good-bye to Qui-Gon as a Master. He wasstill Qui-Gon’s Padawan when he died. Maybe that was the reason he felt soclose to him still. He did not know if Qui-Gon would have left him with wordsof wisdom, with a direction to follow. Now he had no way of knowing what elsehe could give Anakin. He had given him everything he could. It wasn’t enough.Sadness filled Obi-Wan as they blasted into the upper atmosphere. He loved Anakin Skywalker, but he did nottruly know him. The most important things he had to teach he had nottaught. He would have to let him go, knowing that. He would have to let him go.[Jude Watson. Legacy of the Jedi]
Sometimes he [Obi-Wan] talked to him in his head.Arguments more furious than the ones they’d had. Talks in which he explained,Master to Padawan, why he’d done what he’d done. Simple words that managed tosay everything he’d meant to say, only more clearly than he’d ever been able tosay it. In these talks, Anakin listened and understood. Of course, he wastalking to a ghost. Anakin Skywalker was dead. [Jude Watson’s The Last OneStanding]
 “For Anakin,”Obi-Wan said at length, “there is nothing more important than friendship. He isthe most loyal man I have ever met—loyal beyond reason, in fact.Despite all I have tried to teach him about the sacrifices that are the heartof being a Jedi, he—he will never, I think, truly understand.” He looked overat Yoda. “Master Yoda, you and I have been close since I was a boy. An infant.Yet if ending this war one week sooner—one day sooner—were to require that Isacrifice your life, you know I would.” “As you should,” Yoda said. “As I wouldyours, young Obi-Wan. As any Jedi would any other, in the cause of peace.” “AnyJedi,” Obi-Wan said, “except Anakin.” Yoda and Mace exchanged glances, boththoughtfully grim. Obi-Wan guessed they were remembering the times Anakin hadviolated orders—the times he had put at risk entire operations, the lives ofthousands, the control of whole planetary systems—to save a friend. More thanonce, in fact, to save Obi-Wan. “I think,” Obi-Wan said carefully, “thatabstractions like peace don’t mean much to him. He’s loyal to people, not toprinciples. And he expects loyalty in return. He will stop at nothing to saveme, for example, because he thinks I would do the same for him.” Mace and Yoda gazedat him steadily, and Obi-Wan had to lower his head. “Because,” he admitted reluctantly, “he knows I would do the same forhim.” [Matthew Stover’s Revenge of the Sith]

✦ Equinox by lilyconrad, obi-wan/anakin, NSFW, sith!obi-wan, 48.2k wip    During the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan and Anakin crash on a remote planet and take shelter in the ruins of a grand estate only to find they are not alone.    Chapter 9: This is an update rec and will focus on this chapter, rather than the fic as a whole, and will contain SPOILERS by this point. So, this is a chapter where Some Shit Happens, maybe not explosively yet, but certainly and important and massively looming for what it’s going to mean–and it’s all done in such a way that it’s clear that this is exactly where it was going since the beginning. One of my favorite things about lilyconrad’s writing is that I feel this sense often from her stories, that I have a few guesses, I can maybe tell a bit of the framework, but I can never guess exactly, I’m always surprised by something, and yet I look back, even having analyzed everything with ridiculous zeal, and it was obvious that she’d laid the groundwork for it. I figured the Sith versions weren’t gone, they’d pop up in some manner, but I didn’t quite expect them to become real like this–or whatever it’s going to mean! I could guess that it was Isten who walked out to meet Obi-Wan in the rain to give him a cloak, but the scene between Veris and Anakin still surprised the hell out of me. And, god, that is so satisfying, to be able to have some guess about the shape of things, but the details surprise me, some stuff still hits me out of nowhere while being a perfect fit, like, okay, sure, this fic is tailored to exactly what appeals to me! But it’s honestly one of the author’s best for me, especially in terms of sheer storytelling structure.    I love that I’m still analying things–was it the sex that made them real?? because I noticed that the positions used by Obi-Wan and Anakin were verysimilar to the first time Anakin saw Isten and Veris in the gardens, which thenmade the line of how Veris couldn’t do anything unless Obi-Wan had done it first stand out in new relief. Obviously, the Sith were always about reflections of pieces of them, not the whole of them, but the darker and bent versions of some part of them, so Obi-Wan watching Veris fucking Isten, the way his thoughts turned to his own past experiences and some young noble from a past encounter riding him the way Isten rode Veris, the intimacy of Isten’s glove being off, all that takes on new meaning and makes me wonder about the future, if that’s what’s next for them or if their paths are diverging now that the Sith are real! And is all of this what the Shadow was in the house or is there still something more? Is it the Force in a Nexus here or something more self-aware? Either one offers such intriguing possibilities!!    One of the other details that jumped out at me as being perfect, is how precious the Jedi are to them, which appeals so much to me, yessss, because it fits with the themes so much better, that these aren’t canon Sith, these are something else, these are reflections of the Jedi given life, so they come from the Jedi, of course they’d be precious, of course they love each other and so the Sith would love them as well, Anakin is still Anakin to Veris and Obi-Wan is still Obi-Wan to Isten, after all. And their mirrored selves may be somewhat loathesome for the parts they hate about themselves, but they are still precious because they are themselves. It makes the knowing each other all the more delicious, that Veris’ final line of how he’s not going to hurt Anakin, but he thinks Anakin might like it if he did all the more tension-laden and satisfying, because it’s not about disinterest or anything, but a different kind of danger, the kind that lures me right into the story and various dynamics all over again.    The tension of the story is so nicely done as well, that it’s wound together with the way these characters would behave–that Obi-Wan doesn’t register Isten as Isten instead of Anakin, because he’s in his own thoughts, because Isten behaves like Anakin would in that moment, even when I could tell the difference, because it made sense with what I knew that Obi-Wan didn’t, I wholly believed that Obi-Wan wouldn’t. Especially caught up in thoughts of his night with Anakin and, oh, I love that, yes, it’s perfect that he didn’t regret it for having done it, that it’s not like it’s against the Jedi Code (because that’s factually wrong ♥) but instead about exactly what it should be and why the Jedi would be concerned–not because sex or love are wrong (they’re not), but because it puts his priorities and focus out of balance. Because Obi-Wan recognizes the part of himself that is possessive about Anakin, that’s wild and ready to be taken off the hook Obi-Wan has it on, that he’s wary and afraid of his own fire, because he knows what it’s capable of. Because he loves Anakin so deeply (and so much that it blinded him in canon, that was the problem, not the love itself, and this reflection or extension of that is so good for me here!) that balance will be incredibly difficult to come by for them, that is what he’s concerned about. That it’s exactly as Obi-Wan would do–he meditates on it, doesn’t knee-jerk reject it, but instead analyzes it and lets it settle. YES AND MORE YES.    So, yes, I enjoyed this chapter a lot and had a ton to say about it and there were some delicious moments (Isten swinging a leg up over Veris to straddle him, now that they’re real and free, was especially nice, thank you) and so much that I’m still chewing on and so many lovely moments of character insight that absolutely nailed who these characters are, so that, yes, every word of this unecessarily long rec (that’s probably not even of use to people who aren’t already reading! orz) was actually indeed necessary. ♥ ✦ Equinox by lilyconrad, obi-wan/anakin, NSFW, sith!obi-wan, 48.2k wip    During the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan and Anakin crash on a remote planet and take shelter in the ruins of a grand estate only to find they are not alone.    Chapter 10: This is an update rec and will be focusing on this chapter, rather than the fic as a whole! Also, there will be SPOILERS by this point! Oh, man, this chapter was intense and I could hardly unwind from the sheer tension of reading it, the confrontation between the newly real Sith versions against the Jedi versions and something else! I didn’t so much as glance up from the screen the entire time I was reading because I couldn’t look away, that the Shadow crept into the room with them, wrapped itself around Obi-Wan and the fic found that line between having an impact and being too over the top, that instead it was in the sweet spot of moody and atmospheric and creepy and would be terrifying for the people experiencing. But, oh, what this fic does is makes the characters (and me, the reader!) uneasy about what’s happening here, that the Sith versions aren’t what we expect or precisely know what to do with, we don’t know their motivations, and little pieces that we get along the way aren’t necessarily wholly trustworthy, in a way that’s been built up from the beginning. All of the structure of the story is something I’ve been enjoying and legitimately delighted by/respecting as a story, even as it hits my id right on.    But, oh, yes, it definitely hits my id, too. Veris leaning over Anakin, who is paryalzed by seeing Obi-Wan’s face and just the way he reacts to someone that he loves being so commanding and lethal, the way Obi-Wan isn’t fully himself in the scene, that the darkness (whatever it is) creeps over him and into his mind and makes him so much more dangerous and not himself, but in a way that works with whatever is going on in this house, oh, I ate that up like it was the most delicious thing. Because it steals in through his protectiveness for Anakin, that the thought of Anakin being hurt is what allows it in, ohhhh, yes. And then!! AND THEN. The Sith versions finding the Jedi versions precious because… well, possibly because they’re who their beloved came from, who they themselves came from, because who knows, but they do and that is something I am so wholly here for. Veris’ reactions to Isten being in genuine danger, that the themes of his character and Obi-Wan’s are so interesting to play with here, that he provokes and cuts with just the right words, not realizing (even when he himself sprung from Obi-Wan) just want he’s unleashing. And yet this does not take away from the absolute core of who Obi-Wan Kenobi is, a Master Jedi and someone who loves, someone who is grounded in good, that they’re both parts of him, that Obi-Wan is a character about knowing that darkness in himself and not letting it control him, and Veris is not him and yet is a reflection of him in a way, and I love all of it.    That it’s tied up in the relationship between Obi-Wan and Anakin–the Shadow sneaks in through that love, that Veris shows something much more real when Isten is threatened and possibly hurt, that it’s tied up with Anakin’s healing (because Veris, born of darkness, probably can’t?) of Isten (or at least checking on him) because of that love between them. Everything is tied up in that love, that Obi-Wan loves Anakin and Anakin loves Obi-Wan. And it’s such a natural, organic progression–like, two chapters I was thinking Anakin was the one that the Shadow would sneak into, but then no! It’s Obi-Wan! And it made absolute sense to me! And I still am not sure what it wants, if it wants them all dead, wants them all sundered into darkness, if it wants Anakin’s power, if it wants Obi-Wan’s power, or what. I love that the moment of truce between Anakin and Veris was based on seeing Veris’ love for Isten, that of course that’s what makes him more of a person to Anakin. I love everything here and the mystery of what’s going on, just what is in that house, and where it’s all going and how things will end. It’s so good and this chapter still has me feeling wound up from how beautifully intense it was! ✦ And There Shall I Find by ambiguously, anakin & leia, 5.6k    After her shuttle crashes on a desolate world, Leia has only one person to keep her company.    Oh, this was a really lovely, bittersweet in just the right ways, kind of piece. It’s exactly what it says–Leia crashes on a remote world and hits her head so she can’t ignore the Force Ghost trailing around after her like she usually does. And it’s clear how much she hates him and how much anger is still in her, how much fire she still has in her, even as she has so much love still, that it breaks her heart that she was trying to meet Ben again, that he’s going to think she just didn’t show up, and all she has to get through it, is the ghost of the father that she never wanted, not her real father that she does. Anakin trying to respect her wishes and yet so dearly wanting more with her, the bits of humor and trying to help her, the bitterness of their situation mixed with the sweetness of it, is spot on to the characters, it really is just the right amounts of everything in all directions and was a very satisfying read! ✦ Certain Point by esama, obi-wan & anakin/padme & dooku & cast, time travel, 15k wip    In which Ben Kenobi travels back in time to a turning point in history.    Oh, I love time travel fic and dropping Obi-Wan back into the beginning of the Clone Wars has me hooked already! I do have a few caveats in that the fic kind of really kind of seems to misunderstand the Jedi and their ideals (at least as far as I’ve read!), as well as I’m not sure I buy that Obi-Wan Kenobi would express some of the things he has (though, a lot I’m attributing to Anakin and Dooku’s points of view, which absolutely does make sense!), as well as it’s trying to stitch old Jedi Apprentice events to The Clone Wars canon and it doesn’t quite work, as well as is wrong about some factual stuff like Obi-Wan says Sifo-Dyas created the clone arm by order of the Senate in the movie. But if you can roll with those things (and this is genuinely not a drubbing on the fic, merely that I want to encourage people past these things! and that I tend to notice things more the better the writing is, because a lesser fic wouldn’t stand out so nicely), the writing is engaging as all hell and I absolutely have feelings and I greatly enjoyed the scenes between Obi-Wan and Anakin, especially Anakin’s sense of growing quiet panic that Obi-Wan seems distant, feels like he’s not there anymore, and it really captures the sense of a young adult who is on the cusp of indepence and the terror that he feels, especially for someone like Anakin who is so very needy and emotionally dependent. I’m also greatly enjoying Dooku’s view of Obi-Wan and how he wants to turn Obi-Wan to the Dark Side but recognizes that he can’t and the way his character feels almost unsettled about it, like he’s seeing some things about himself that the canon Dooku never had the impetus to do.    The plot of the story in the four chapters I’d read as of the writing of this rec carried me through, so even when I had some caveats and doubts about it, there was no way I was putting it down. The writing itself really is spectacular and so, so addictive and the author certainly knows how to write a story that I eat up with a spoon and makes me desperate to know what’s going to happen next! The plot itself is very solidly done and the time travel is very well done in that I am so, so here for knowing how this moment is what can be the changing moment! Definitely one of the fics I’m most excited about right now! ✦ untitled by swhurtcomfort, obi-wan & anakin & cast, sickfic, h/c, ~1k    Anakin wakes up to a world that’s still spinning.    This is the fic I read first from these authors (though, I believe I’ve enjoyed their work elsewhere, too! ♥) and it’s the one that immediately made me fall in love all over again, that it’s such a good Anakin voice, how grumpy and bratty he can be, but it’s in such an adorable and charming way for it, that it’s obviously layered over a deep and incredible love. The way Obi-Wan reverts to calling him “Padawan” when he’s sick, the way he gently touches Anakin who is so miserably sick, it’s so telling and spot on for the character, you can feel how much Obi-Wan loves him in a very Obi-Wan Kenobi sort of way. It’s a fic that hit at my id and all the things I wanted out of h/c sickfic, but is also genuinely well written and spot on. It’s short but it was the perfect length and so very satisfying! ✦ untitled by swhurtcomfort, obi-wan & anakin & kix & cody, sickfic, ~1k    Just wanted to write something schmoopy and cute for @finish-the-clone-wars ‘s Writing Wednesday prompt: Virus    This was another lovely fic from swhurtcomfort, this time with Obi-Wan under the weather and, of course, with that incredible tank nature of his he doesn’t go down easily, which frustrates the people around him, but there’s still a sense of things not being too silly about it or over the top, instead it feels much more grounded than that, and so I was even more in love! And, oh, when Anakin shows up, that Obi-Wan is more gentle with him, that there’s a different dynamic there, that also a bit that it’s that the Jedi are just kind of weird to outsiders, all of it is so very lovely. ✦ Negotiation by Glare, obi-wan/anakin & ahsoka & bail & cast, NSFW, dark!obi-wan, modern au, serial killer au, dark themes, 86.7k    Over a year ago, Coruscant Police Detective Anakin Skywalker vanished without a trace while hunting the prolific serial killer known within the media as “The Negotiator”. Now, Skywalker has been found and rescued from captivity in a cabin deep within the Naboo wilderness, the only known survivor of an encounter with The Negotiator. The only question on anyone’s mind is: What happened during his time away?    Final Chapters: I’ve written recs for this fic as it was in progress, but now that it’s finished I’m going to aim for one that’s a more general rec for the entire fic at once! This is a fic that you definitely need to roll with the concept with when you walk in the door, that this is not the Obi-Wan Kenobi of canon, but instead that he’s a negative image of the character we love, that everything good about Obi-Wan is dark and terrible in this version of Kenobi, that it’s a version of him that is similar on the surface, where they share the trappings (the politeness, the formality, the predatory abilities under the kind surface) but presents instead an Obi-Wan Kenobi who is as dark as the canon one is good. If you can roll with that, this is a fascinating look at obsession and stalking and Stockholm Syndrome and that the fic warmly embraces these things, that it finds a balance between not trying to justify any of this with appealing to what I’m here for in the relationship between these two characters. This is a fic that, yes, is about breaking down Anakin Skywalker until he goes along with whatever Obi-Wan wants, but it’s also a fic about something warm between them, something charismatic and hellishly engaging for me to read!    And that’s where this fic gets me! All the things that I might have been wary about before stepping into it, that it’s so different from the canon I know and love, that this is such a different take on these characters, that it’s about murder and serial killings, is balanced by how there’s something that makes me root for these characters to be together, for Anakin to stop struggling between his two worlds, for me to be able to just dive right into the beautiful trash fire that these characters’ lives are. That there’s a glimmer of something I recognize still there and that I hold onto, that’s what really won my heart with this fic. That and it’s just incredibly engaging, that it doesn’t drag things out just to drag them out, but instead the pacing really allowed for showing the long journey these characters took, from the beginning to where they ultimately ended up, to show the how of Anakin’s slow breaking apart, in a way that a 20k fic just couldn’t have done. It was the perfect length and ended exactly how I would have wanted things to end and hit so, so many of my buttons along the way.    I’m not kidding when I say there’s something incredibly charismatic about this story, that it appeals to the dark fic desires I have, while not trying to pretend to be something it’s not, yet still getting at that shipper heart of mine. It also has so many moments where I was just incredibly invested, where I wound up rooting for these characters (and I do think there’s a similarity to the NBC Hannibal in a really good way, it captured that same sense of heroes and villains and the connection between them even when they disagree morally) and was practically tied up into a pretzel by the end of the fic when I just so badly wanted them to somehow end up together. There’s also some really spectacularly satisfying sex, that chapter where there’s this moment of pause right before Obi-Wan finally pushes into him, that moment that is just full of everything that this means and lets the weight of it really sink in, that went along with the ridiculously hot porn, and that just made the whole thing better. All of this was a super satisfying fic and a hell of an experience that I’m glad I got to enjoy! ✦ untitled by subskywalker, obi-wan/anakin NSFW, modern au, ~1k    Anakin could only hold onto the counter in the restroom and try to keep quiet as Ben gripped his hips hard enough to leave bruises and fuck into him.    This ficlet came along at exactly the right time for what I needed to get me interested in reading Star Wars fic again, because it’s pwp and really only about the sex, it’s one of those that’s designed to appeal right to my id in that way that satisfies me, and, boy, did it do exactly that. Anakin getting fucked over a bathroom counter while Obi-Wan tells him to keep watching himself in the mirror, the slightly rough edge to the sex, the slight undercurrent of d/s to it, the satisfying and super hot sex, all of it just made my brain light up exactly as it was supposed to, god bless. ✦ Pursuit by Icse, obi-wan/anakin, nsfw, modern au, 8.5k wip    Anakin Skywalker is a Grand Prix jumper transitioning into the Eventing world. While his scores are good during the cross-country and show jumping phases of Eventing, his dressage scores are abysmal. His sponsor sets him up as a working student for two-time Dressage Gold Medalist Ben Kenobi to help him pursue his dream of competing in the Olympics.    Speaking of fics that have sparked me back into wanting to read more! This is another one that hits me right in the id, where it’s this soft-hearted modern AU fic that is clearly a work of love from the author and designed to appeal to what I want out of it, it’s just warm and soft and kind, even when it’s kind of angsty. But a fluffy kind of angst, which is exactly what I wanted! It’s a fic that’s meant to be picked up when you want something like a fuzzy blanket to wrap around you, when you just want an AU where it’s about the author’s love of horses and riding, where Anakin is a bit of a brat, where there’s flirting and pining on both sides, where the pacing is reasonably lengthy (and will probably be 15k when all finished, I guess) without being drawn out, and it’s just sweet and fun. It’s one of those fics that runs full-tilt at all the soft things in Obikin fandom and gives them the biggest hug and has such charm to it, that there’s such care and affection here, that the horse riding stuff is genuinely fun to read about and, ugh, I just love this and it’s like sinking into a warm, comforting bath when I get a new chapter. ✦ untitled by darthcuddles, obi-wan/anakin, modern au, ~1k    Anakin rushes through the hall of the local vet, a black and white kitten in his jacket, and the blood of the little creature streaming down his chest. The nails are dug deeply into his skin, but he ignores his own pain for the little meows coming from the kitten.    This is another fic that I read at the right time to perk me back up, because I just want kind and soft things right now, I want cute stories where these two love each other or are just meeting and are wildly attracted to each other and there’s an instant connection and such charm to the way it’s written. It’s a story for when you want a warm, fluffy blanket, a bite-sized ficlet that’s just really cute! ✦ untitled by frost-and-stars, obi-wan/anakin, NSFW, ~1k    gffa asked: SEXY MEME #15 - Make sure you leave a mark., Obikin. Anakin likes feeling the marks Obi-Wan leaves on him (biting? finger-shaped bruises on his hips? rope marks from where they pressed into his skin?), always urging for more, because he wants to see them the next day and be reminded!    Oh, this may be short, a little over 250 words, but it was exactly what I needed at the time it was posted and it’s beautifully written, frost-and-stars has a lovely way with the imagery in this piece, and lovely characterization as well in just a few lines. That Anakin is so greedy here, wants all the more even when he’s already getting fucked, wants the bruises and bites so that he can feel them again later, can remember them and know they were given by Obi-Wan, wants to push himself back onto Obi-Wan all the harder, even as Obi-Wan is already taking him apart, oh, it’s just my favorite Anakin. The desperate, greedy one who loves so deeply and wants this so very, very much. Beautiful and super hot, bless. ✦ untitled by mthingthepoint, obi-wan/anakin/padme, dragon!anakin, ~1k    puelhathnofury asked: YOU OWE ME THE PREQUELS DRAGON OT3    Oh, I really enjoyed this! It’s short and of course I would have loved more, but as a snippet ficlet there’s such lovely imagery here, the way Obi-Wan and Padme balance this wild, powerful creature that is Anakin, that they help soothe over his rough spots, and you can see why they fall in love with this brilliant creature. It’s lovely for how they want him as well, and how much it caught my imagination and started spinning things out of it. A lovely read! ✦ Sky Walkers by esama, anakin & rex & hevy & fives & echo, 3.8k    In which some clones rescue a Jedi in the deserts of Tatooine (aka, Jedi as a species of living spaceships because, y'know, why not?    This is one of those fics that’s delightfully weird and knows it, just embraces that and has a fun, light-hearted time about it! It explains what you need to know, but doesn’t go any further than it needs to, so instead it’s just this fun, odd read that’s engaging, where Jedi are living spaceships and the clone squad comes across Anakin on Tatooine and it’s adorable and sad and weird and fun all at the same time! ✦ Identity by madame_alexandra, 353.9k    A distress signal reaches Coruscant after the Empire’s demise, claiming to be the beacon of Bail Organa. what would the reappearance of Leia’s adoptive father mean for her life in a post ROTJ context. What would he think of Han Solo, and what could he tell her about the dark shadow of her heritage? H/L; significantly AU, I suppose.    I picked this fic up because I was really curious to see what a fic that brought Bail Organa back would be like and I found a story that is very, very well-written, though it feels more Legends-based and it’s very, very much a Han/Leia story. I think, if you’re a fan of the pairing, this fic is going to be absolute catnip, you’ll roll around in it and have stuff to read for days and it will keep you totally enthralled! For those on the fence, the fic does prioritize that relationship above everything else and I found myself wishing that the other people in Leia’s life had some kind of narrative weight to them, because this is basically entirely about the Han/Leia relationship, how they are everything to each other, how they become each other’s whole world, how their time together is full of banter and love and everything else they’re trying to process after the war–but I couldn’t fault the fic for it, it’s tagged the right way and it’s obvious the fic is having a great time and embracing what it wants to embrace, and if this had been the ship of my heart, I’d have written a five paragraph long flailing screed about it and nothing could have stopped me! I recommend it because I think it will appeal to Han/Leia fans and I did enjoy the parts I read (though, it took about 50k for them to find Bail, this is a very slow burn of a fic, though, I wouldn’t say it drags! the whole point is the journey there) and it’s a nice fic to have in the fandom! ✦ Disappointment by Icse, obi-wan/anakin, au, a/b/o, 1.6k    All Anakin wants is a child. As an omega and the Prince Consort with access to the best doctors in the Galaxy, it shouldn’t be this hard to get pregnant. He can’t help but feel like a disappointment at yet another failure.    This is another fic that’s about embracing a trope and a thing that has personal meaning for the author, you can feel that coming through, but it was such a sweet and kind-hearted story, that it was about working through something and the crushing feelings that of course Anakin would feel, how he has these mood spirals when things don’t go well, and that can be cathartic to write and/or read for the audience. But that ultimately it was a hopeful story, that Anakin is going through these difficult feelings and it’s not like a hug can just magic them away or anything, but Obi-Wan is so in love with him and devoted to him that they’ll find a way to muddle through together. It was lovely and perfect exactly as it was, I’m so glad the author shared it with us.

Throwing my hat into the Star Wars Hogwarts Houses discussion ring.
This is for the canon versions of the characters, not the fan versions. I know that headcanons can differ from the original material. Feel free to continue having and enjoying your headcanons and fan versions of the characters. Just please respect that this post is about the characters as presented in the source material, not the characters as they’ve developed in the fandom.
(TL;DR - Please be nice to me, I’m Hufflepuff.)
Rey - Gryffindor
This description from The Force Awakens novelization puts it very well:
... a phantasmagorical industrial badlands that none dared enter, for fear of being poisoned, cut, or lost forever. None except a very few, for whom daring was as much a sense as sight or hearing.
[Emphasis mine.]
Rey has a lot in common with Harry Potter. They are both a bit of everything -- clever, kind, ambitious, vulnerable, hopeful, self-righteous -- but mostly they are a little bit reckless, a little more bold and daring than those around them.
Rey didn’t flinch when it came time to help others or when confronted with the bad guys. Though tempted to sell BB-8, she did the right thing, and she didn’t even think before she resisted the badguys. While Ravenclaws can be brave, I feel as if Ravenclaw Rey would have been plotting a strategy like mad, but for movie Rey it came across as instinct. Act first, survive, keep moving forward. When she faced Plutt, Kylo Ren, and Snoke, it didn’t matter how powerful they were or how much they could hurt her, she stood up to them without any real strategy or attempt at manipulation. I feel as if a Ravenclaw would have made a plan when faced with the badguys, whereas a Gryffindor would plow forward recklessly (see: Harry Potter himself).
Finn - Hufflepuff
Finn leaves the First Order because he instinctively knows right from wrong, he helps Poe escape because he doesn’t have another choice, and he would much rather run far far away than stick around blasting the First Order ship (like Poe chooses to do).
When he and Poe crash on Jakku, Finn tries to pull Poe out of the wreckage. Poe is a stranger and probably useless to Finn now, just dead weight, but Finn goes to save him anyway because it’s the right thing to do.
When Finn first sees Rey, she is facing down Plutt’s guys and he immediately goes to try and help. She doesn’t need his help, but he tries to give it because, again, it’s the right thing to do. When he sees BB-8, instead of running away to avoid being tangled up with the pair of them, he grabs Rey’s hand and tries to get her and the droid to safety.
Finn proves over and over that he is not brave for the greater good but rather for individuals. Fighting because it’s right or for honor and glory is a Gryffindor trait. Fighting to protect people you care about is a Hufflepuff trait. Yes, they can and do overlap, but Finn is firmly in the latter camp -- he runs away and runs away and runs away, only stopping to protect those he cares about. And oh how he protects. He goes to Starkiller Base and faces Kylo Ren to protect Rey. He steals Leia’s beacon and tries to run away again, and when that doesn’t work he concocts the most insane plan ever because he doesn’t want Rey to walk back into a death trap. Be it because he loves her or because she is literally the first friend he ever made (Poe doesn’t make friend status until after Rey is taken on Takodana), Finn’s concern for Rey prevails even when his instincts tell him to run and stay safe.
Hufflepuffs will go to hell and back for their people. In the Battle of Hogwarts, all eligible Hufflepuffs stayed to fight. All of them. Not because they were daring or adventurous or wanted glory but to protect the people they cared about.
Poe - Gryffindor
Is anyone not on the Gryffindor train for Poe? Reckless, impulsive, would rather blow stuff up than save his own hide? Stupidly cocky? Okay, yeah, we good here.
Ben Solo/Kylo Ren - Slytherin
Slytherin are ambitious. Kylo Ren aspires to be like his grandfather; he wants to finish Darth Vader’s work and live up to Vader’s legacy; but, even before that, he would have been cognizant of his own royal heritage (Leia) and understood how powerful his lineage was in the Force (Luke). Plus, he crowns himself Supreme Leader at the end of TLJ and throws Rey under the bus when Hux finds Snoke’s body.
I can’t help thinking that our boy has always possessed the requisite ambition, self-importance, and perhaps moral ambiguity to make a fine Slytherin, even before he went dark.
(Disclaimer: I’m totally Team Reylo -- the months of fluffy fanfiction I’ve written about them is testament to that -- but yeah he definitely threw her under the bus.)
Armitage Hux - Slytherin
Slimy, selfish, murderous, rabid cur who wants to be top dog.
Rose Tico - Hufflepuff
Rose fights for the people she cares about, except that for her (unlike Finn) that means the entire Resistance. She’s also used to working behind the scenes for no glory, just helping out where she can.
Plus, her best quote is 100% Hufflepuff:
That's how we're gonna win. Not fighting what we hate, but saving what we love.
Phasma - Slytherin
If she had an ounce of integrity, she’d be Gryffindor, but Slytherins can be badass too.
Luke Skywalker - Gryffindor
He’s obviously lost his way by the sequels, but he was a Gryffindor to the bone in the original trilogy and that’s when he would have been Sorted.
Leia - Ravenclaw or Gryffindor
I would have to rewatch the original trilogy to be completely sure. Leia had her doctorate at 19 and was well-versed in politics, diplomacy, etc. However, the half-baked plan to rescue Han from Jabba the Hutt was definitely Gryffindor.
Han Solo - Slytherin
I thought maybe Gryffindor, because he has his moments of courage, but let’s be honest -- he’s a smuggler, and he shot first. Plus, Slytherins are allowed to have moral scruples. They usually prefer self-preservation, but they can believe in a cause.
Chewbacca - ???
It would be easy to lump Chewie in with whatever house Han is in, but I feel as if the character has more depth than “Han’s sidekick.” He’s physically brave, is perfectly comfortable with Han’s moral ambiguity, and is a deeply loyal friend.
However, Chewbacca doesn’t have the ambition we usually find in Slytherin. He’s fine with letting others take the lead and never tries to take the captain’s chair from Han. He only really gets pulled into fights when people who matter to him get him involved.
That actually sounds pretty Hufflepuff to me, but I’m more inclined to think of Chewie as someone who didn’t attend Hogwarts.
Amilyn Holdo - Ravenclaw
I got a very Ravenclaw vibe from the way she handled Poe and chose the plan with the best chances instead of personal glory. Even her move at the end of TLJ was well-calculated.
Dopheld Mitaka - Ravenclaw
I read somewhere that he was academically-inclined.
Snoke - Slytherin
Well, duh.
Palpatine - Slytherin
Double duh.
Anakin Skywalker - Gryffindor
Only because he would have been Sorted before he turned Sith, and his flaws in the prequels were almost completely Gryffindor traits. Reckless, arrogant, and passionate. That’s a Gryffindor boy.
Padme Amidala - Ravenclaw
Physically brave and politically outspoken. She was a queen and a senator, so she had some ambition, but she fought for the good of others instead of for her own power. She was a diplomat, both clever and wise, and didn’t back off of her views just because they put her life in danger. She frequently put herself in the middle of the action, choosing to interact with the galaxy instead of keeping herself safe and apart.
I picked Ravenclaw over Gryffindor because Padme was wise in a way that transcended even her bravery. Her words in the Senate frequently won over those on the fence, and her relationships were based more on mutual respect than wild and reckless adventures (though she totally had those, too).
Paige Tico - Gryffindor
Though Paige could easily fit into Hufflepuff with her sister, who is the most important thing to Paige, her work as a gunner and a pilot and her death as a hero make her equally suited to Gryffindor. What tipped the balance for me is how she described Finn to Rose -- as someone who did the right thing no matter how difficult. Paige exemplified that quality in her death scene, doing what had to be done even though it would have been easier to give up and lie there.
If Paige did get sorted into Hufflepuff, she would be regarded similarly to Cedric Diggory due to her beauty, intelligence, and bravery.
Droids
BB-8
R2-D2
C3PO

OC Questionaire
I was tagged by @melissagt as well, so here’s another one. 
I’m going to give @salaciouscrumpet a shout out to see if she wants to have a go at this. Hope you’re feeling better!
Tumblr media
GENERAL
Name: Zola’hes’naru - Imperial Agent
Alias(es): Cipher Nice, Zolah
Gender: female
Age: Age on file at the time of the War with Zakuul - 35 Actual age - 30 (She’s Chiss, so she lied to appear older)
Place of birth: Dromund Kaas
Spoken languages: Basic, Rodion, Rhyl, and other main languages spoken throughout the galaxy
Sexual orientation: Whatever she needs to be
Occupation: Alliance War Council Member (veritable pain in Fytna’s ass)
APPEARANCE (Chiss)
eye color: solid red
Hair color: black
Height: 5′ 9″ (180 cm)
Scars: Zolah has had all scars and identifying marks removed as per her job requirements.
FAVORITE
Color: pale yellow (though that’s a secret that only Vector knows, and that Theron might have deduced by slicing into documents that could get him gelded should she ever find out)
Hair color: Black. Definitely black
Eye color: Though she didn’t realize it before, she’s decided that Vector’s solid, black eyes are the most beautiful in the galaxy
Entertainment: Documentaries. Zolah is a sucker for history and conspiracy theories. 
Pastime: Reports. (she and Quinn would get along smashingly) and anything productive. Zolah really hates free time, it makes her feel lazy.
Food: Zolah is a sucker for fine dining, and since Vector enjoys the finer things in life, she’s more than happy to indulge his habit. (Theron gets left behind because who needs all of those forks and spoons anyway) 
Drink: Zolah rarely drinks off the job, and given the nano-scrubbers released by her implant, getting drunk is out of the question. So really, what’s the point?
Books: Sith history fascinates Zolah, as does anything she can find on Killiks.
HAVE THEY
Passed university: Zolah has the highest schooling available on Dromund Kaas and through Imperial Intelligence.
Had sex: It is literally in her job description
Had sex in public: Surprisingly no. Zolah doesn’t like to feel exposed, she always maneuvered them to a more secluded area. 
Gotten pregnant: No. Zolah has a permanent birth control implant, though if she were to have it removed, technically I suppose she could. 
Kissed a man: Naturally
Kissed a woman: Almost as many as the men
Gotten tattoos: No identifying marks at all
Gotten piercings: Zolah stupidly had her nose and ears pierced on a dare while in academy. She was punished brutally for it, as it hurt her chances of being accepted into Imperial Intelligence. The holes have since closed.
Had a broken heart: Not yet
Been in love: She thinks so, but it’s a bit complicated and she overthinks everything
Stayed up for more than 24 hours: also literally in her job description. She has implants to help keep her mind stimulated. 
ARE THEY
A virgin: No.
A cuddler: Not particularly, though she’s trying to learn
A kisser: It’s something that she’s trained in, but rarely enjoys
A smoker: Only when the job requires it
Scared easily: No, she’s pragmatic. There is ALWAYS a solution.
Jealous easily: It is literally a foreign word. Even growing up in opulence, she still never had any possessions of her own.
Trustworthy: She’s a spy.... A literal spy. So, no, not even a little.
Dominant: Mostly, it’s not in her nature to back down. 
Submissive: Only when the job requires it.
Single: No. At this point in the story, she’s married to Vector, and in a complicated, but committed, relationship with Theron. Mostly because they are both bad at it, and were it not for Vector, it wouldn’t work at all.
RANDOM QUESTIONS
Wanted to kill someone: Many people
Actually killed someone: Probably the people from the previous question
Ridden a beast: She wasn’t thrilled about the smell, but yes, when she had to.
Have/had a job: Not until required because her foster family wanted her to focus on her studies.
Have any fears: Losing control, idiots in command, and unpredictable circumstances (basically, Fynta in a nutshell. How she hates that woman.)
FAMILY
Sibling(s): No known siblings
Parents: Miki'nos'boro (birth mother) and the Rakton family (foster and sponsors into the Intelligence program)    
Children: Not yet.
Pets: Theron Shan and Vector Hyllus (hey, her words, not mine)
