Jedi council: How many kids do you have?

Obi-wan thinking about his disaster son-brother Anakin, His sort of daughter figure Ahsoka, His sort of love child Korkie : Biologically, Emotionally or legally?

Truth all✨✨✨

now that i am reading the thrawn: ascendancy books and seeing how fucking similar thrawn and eli are in some aspects - like scenes that are nearly mirrored down to the word - i love the thought of eli thinking he and thrawn have nothing in common, or that he could never be like him, bc he always just sees himself running after thrawn, just to come to the ascendancy and have everyone he meets be like “oh my fucking god there are two of you fuckers”

I was thinking on my walk home from work today. I've always imagined Thrawn's exile as a vague blob of three ish years but it hit me that he spent four years in exile. Alone, with no sentinents. With only a token from Ungali and Thalias to represent everyone who loved him.

Waiting for the day his plotting went into action.

Looking at the ring. Thinking of all he had lost. Thalias and Un'hee and Ar'alani and Samakro and everyone else. (I like to imagine he keeps it close for the rest of his days. Eli learns of it when he commissions it to be painted onto the bottom of the Chimaera. He never learns the full story of it. It becomes a thing that he only takes out on certain nights.

And I was like wait, so he was in exile all of Eli's time at the Myomar Academy pretty much which makes it seem so much longer cause wow. That puts things into perspective. But I was also thinking...

So Thrawn spent those four years in exile while Eli was beginning his military career. And before that Thrawn had his military career. And after they met they had their golden 12 years, in which everyone knew they were a pair. Even people that didn't know them knew that Eli Vanto was a name that followed Thrawn's.

And then they parted. Eli was techinally military, but mostly desk job, while Thrawn stayed active. And then when Eli got a promotion Thrawn got purrgilled and he was grand admiral of nothing.

Basically, the point I'm making is they don't have separate military careers at the same time. The timeline was unintentionally made so they take turns making their names and chess moves. But they only move at the same time at each other's side, together. When the only one that can beat them is... Nightswan.

Idk if it means anything but little thing I noticed.

I've heard some debate over which Family the skywalkers will choose. I haven't heard much over the possibility of Vah'nya losing Third Sight, but imagine if she did. Whose Family would she choose? Ar'alani's former Family the Irizi? Her (possible) father Thrawn's? To my knowledge there aren't any Chiss she's particularly close to.

But you know what would be sweet? If she took the Family of a very close friend, of someone who swore to protect her. It would be unconventional. It would cause an uproar in the Syndicure.

Imagine if she took the name Eli'vah'nya. Ivah.
