Zendaya as Tashi Duncan – Challengers (2024)

assorted bits and bobs of maggie's ✨ star wars verse ✨ :
her father was a human smuggler; her mother was a human force sensitive princess from an aquatic planet, left to her own devices on a "peaceful" moon orbiting her home planet (it was a prison and her mother was the one in charge of it, loosely, while also being locked there herself)
their affair was quick and messy, her father only periodically stopping through on his ways to and from various far more exciting places
her mother was never trained by the jedi or sith, instead self-training in her own blend of light and dark sides, though her favored method of punishment for political prisoners isolated on her moon influenced her further towards the dark side
maggie, for better or for worse, was also force sensitive, and learned of the force through her mother's teachings, though she was far more inclined to embrace the full spectrum of attitudes through the force than her mother
by the time the conflict between the separatists and republic grew to full blown war, maggie had left the moon she'd been raised on and instead found herself in a much bigger pond
her dabbling in the darker side of the force marked her with her mother's iconic yellow eyes (though her sclera remained white) which she covered with a mask and visor, fashioned in a parallel fashion to the clones helmets
her preferred weapons are distance, information, and the force itself, though she is quite lethal with a blade (she loves her vibroknife) and though she doesn't have a lightsaber of her own, if she were to come into possession, bond with, and wield one, it would turn white over time
in all of her different eras, she struggles to balance her place in the force, especially when she sees how others with this ability are using it. neither the jedi nor the sith look particularly appealing, so she hides herself (as best she can) from both.
in the clone wars, she focused on familiarizing herself with her father's handiwork from a distance, using his networks to establish her own, interconnected and interwoven with the smuggling rings throughout the galaxies. an independent entity, she made her coin through racing, pleasure, and information smuggling (20-23 yrs)
in the age of the empire/post-order 66, she stepped as far out of empire control as possible, without allying herself with the rebel forces outright, though assisting them in exchange for temporary protection when the empire upped the hunt for force sensitive adults who escaped the previous purges/collections (23-47 yrs)
in the age of the new republic, maggie has leaned hard into replicating her father's smuggling of goods and information, seeking her own power and security in the vacuum left behind, as tales of force sensitive users become stories of a distant past (separate timeline OR 47+ yrs, depending on vibes)
@singofus asked : "Mom! My new friend I made, Meadow, she said that she knew you back in the day. Said you gave the best acid around!!" Kal looks so proud and happy all at once, glad that she inherited mom's skills for crafting good trips. ⇢ magissa ﹠ kaluciyo

maggie looks up at the first call from her child - a softer , hazier quality to the swirling , bubbling aura - daughter , as she runs in . it takes her a second to think back , over a century and with the drugs in her system it felt even longer , but soon the memories come to her .
meadow , a sweet girl from a blank void of a background , something maggie surely did appreciate . she was always down for a good time , loved music , loved love , and really loved maggie's fun little tabs , infused with a certain degree of intention .
maybe maggie had been casting spells after all .
she had thought a serial killer had gotten to her , honestly . but - wait .
“ well that's very sweet of her to say !! how did you two meet , anyway ? is she a shade , like , what's she up to ? i haven't seen her in a long time . ”
i just wanna have bruises on my hips because you've held me too tight while i was riding you

@singofus asked : Kal is grinning from ear to ear and comes in with a cake box that's clumsily tied with a bow. He is just a tad high but just so excited. "Mom! I made you this." He holds the box out. Inside is a handmade chocolate cake with lots of chocolate icing and the words 'best mom in the universe' on it. Universe curving around the edge of the cake to fit, clearly he underestimated how much space it would take up. ⇢ magissa ﹠ kaluciyo
the midnight diner , 21xx .
maggie looks up as her youngest crashes through the kitchen revolving door , simultaneously delicately holding something . her heart warms at the playful swirling nature of his aura . she lets hers bloom and swirl in tandem , the equivalent of cupping his cheeks as she looks down at the cake .
she puts both her hands over her chest , looking up at kal with nothing short of love and gratitude .
“ is this what you were doing in the kitchen that required me to leave ? “ she asks , gently taking the cake from him and setting it on the counter . ” this is lovely kali-boy , thank you . shall we have some ? "
she may be already planning a treat basket in return for him .
