Real question: how tall are the Chiss to you?
There are no official heights for like any of the Chiss and that is a shame. Thrawn is roughly 6′4″ we know this because of the great Lars Mikkelsen. I’ve always imagined Thrawn to tower over everyone else. Lanky beanpole when he was a teenager type. Ba’kif is probably right at 6′ and Ar’alani is the same height. Thrass is either in the upper 5′ range or lower 6′. He is definitely not taller than Thrawn, but when they stood side-by-side I always imagined him to only be a few inches shorter. So maybe 6′1″? 6′2″? Thurfian isn’t 6′, about 5′10″ or 5′11″. He’s considered on the shorter side of the average. Zistalmu is taller than him, possibly Thrawn’s height. Thalias is shorter than him. Anywhere from the 5′7″-9″ range. Samakro is right at 5′11″. Kharill is about 6′5″-6″. He’s slightly taller than Thrawn.
But that’s not saying that Thrawn is overly tall, in fact he’s surrounded daily by chiss who are taller than him (personal headcannon that chiss grow to nearly 7′ on average). It just so happens that the people he finds himself with are usually shorter than him. Going to the Empire where everyone is human is a little bit of an adjustment, he feels like he’s a towering over them all. And on average he is half a foot taller than them.
Awesome
Yes! I would of absolutely loved to see more bounty hunters, especially classic ones. And I'm not a fan of Boba literally never having his buy'ce on unless they're in a fight.
While episode 4 of Boba Fett might be the best episode so far…I think the series could have started out much better. I’d have had Boba Fett become king of the bounty hunters. I’d have had him summon all the known hunters and use them to take out all the opposing forces of Tatooine… like a chess match. None of this talking to everyone and letting them make their our stupid decisions. And I’d also have it that Boba Fett doesn’t show his face to everybody. He never did it in the old movies…why do it now?
Who wants to have a Star Wars marathon with me?
And I'm not talking just the movies
Not just the live action
Not just the ones we like
I mean a marathon, all of the movies, TV shows, live action and animated, all of it.
That means the Prequels, The Clone Wars, The Bad Batch, Solo, Kenobi, Andor, the Originals, The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Resistance, and the Sequels. Yes even Visions and Tales of the Jedi. And I have nothing against watching all of the shorts Blips, Forces of Destiny, and Grogu and Dust Bunnies. And yes, before you start to get comfortable even the "vintage" Star Wars Clone Wars, Ewoks, The Battle for Endor, The Faithful Wookie, Caravan of Courage, Droids. Holiday Specials! And to top it all off, we'll watch the Lego Star Wars 😈

Thrawn: Ah, memories!
Whenever, Wherever - Shakira
Lucky that I love a foreign land for
The lucky fact of your existence
Baby, I would climb the Andes solely
To count the freckles on your body
Never could imagine there were only
Ten million ways to love somebody
Don’t mind me… I’m just appreciating Thrawn’s little freckles
there is love in this story. even in its most brutal end. there is love in the story. how? where? here: here in me telling it to you, in spite of everything. because of everything.
AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
Thrawn: You would not hold up well under torture.
Samakro: Oh, and you would?
Thrawn: I did
Samakro:
I decided to write a little scene from a story I'm thinking about writing. Let me know if you would like to see more!
Her ears were burning, purple was beginning to spread across them like a wildfire as she stared at the preposterous male in front of her. He hated her, he had since the moment they met. She had believed that it was his hate for her that made him deny his brother's love for her. And now he tells her that she is too good for him? Her mind raced with memories from not so long ago.
"You called me a pig!"
He moved to her side, looking down at her as he spoke,
"Most certainly. Though do not be mistaken I only mean in regards to your attitude and dress. Your air is that of low born stock, but your family have climbed the social ranks quite impressively, and are of high intelligence, higher than even that of many in my own family, I can admit that. But that does not nullify the fact that your attitude is that of, in simple words, an overzealous heifer."
Her mouth fell open, red eyes staring at the male in front of her,
"A heifer!"
He continued unfazed,
"Beyond that you are quite beautiful," his voice lowered" More beautiful than the Earthen swan, I believe the expression is."
She blinked at him a few times, "You misspeak."
"I do not exaggerate," he lifted her head, two fingers placed underneath her chin, "You will make a wonderful wife," he paused as he moved away, his perfectly plucked eyebrow coming to an arch,
"For some crazen male."
He began to walk away, his back turned to her. She called out desperate for answers,
"Then why do you keep me from your brother if you think so lowly of him?"
He paused once again and turned to face her,
"It is for simple reason that I think so lowly of him that I do keep you away from him. You are much too good for him," he lifted his head in thought, "Though a slime would be too good for him."
She stared slacked jawed, as the Patriarch's son bowed his head and turned on his heel, taking his leave.
The nerve of that man. She could hardly believe it.
And then Thrawn teaches him traditional Chiss courting dances.
He’s trying to teach him how to dance
