"You must choose the Force, with your whole heart. To do this, you must learn, again, to listen. To hear the world, the world outside of your own emotions"

ugh i love Tech so much and relate to him on an emotional level, ESPECIALLY in the crossing when he’s speaking to Omega in the cave, saying just because he doesn’t express things, doesn’t mean he doesn’t necessarily feel them too AND I GET THAT!! (which is also another reason why the crossing is one of my favorite episodes)

like,, if i have problems i won’t talk about them and i will pray that someone else then asks if im okay so i have an excuse to actaully talk

i struggle talking to people/expressing things/portraying emotions and i genuinely hate that about myself but i love seeing that represented in my favorite thing ever, and in a character like Tech

if only he wasn’t killed off

anyway im super upset rn so this was just yap 🤌

something that i’ve realized about why tech means so much to me as an autistic person…

in sci-fi/fantasy-type media, seeing my autistic traits in a character is rare (that’s not really a secret—we all know that there isn’t enough autism representation in the media). BUT, when there is a character with traits i relate to, it is often an alien.

think mantis or drax from guardians of the galaxy. sure, they’re main characters, but their traits that feel relatable to me are made to be a joke, and they’re like… literally aliens. it’s common in media for aliens to miss sarcasm and social cues, to be blunt, things like that. things that are also autistic traits.

so, i watch guardians of the galaxy and see myself in the aliens, the outcasts, the ones who don’t fit the same as the others because they are literally not human. this doesn’t apply to all aliens ofc but my point stands.

tech, on the other hand, is just… different. he thinks and acts differently, as do the rest of the batch, and all their differences are so celebrated. i mean, aside from that kinda being the point of the show, they’re also portraying his differences as who he is, and using it as a tool for him. which i love. he’s not an alien species. he’s not a joke (he’s teased by his brothers, but that’s just siblings lol).

(also this isn’t to say that drax and mantis are bad characters or anything. i love them and find them hilarious.)

anyway. i’ve been thinking a lot about tech lately and why he means the actual world to me, and this whole thing hasn’t left my head in days so i’m making a post about it. hopefully it resonates with someone😂

no cause why am i crying

A Dance Through Time

This took me about two months to finish and it's the biggest piece I've ever done. Inspiration came while I was listening to Fast Car by Tracy Chapman one day, and the vision of Hunter and Omega swaying to the rhythm together came to life before my eyes. Listening to it more brought a realization that some parts of the song fit the story of these two almost perfectly, taking them on a journey from the very first episode of the show to the day peace is restored in the galaxy - like the first verse talking about their beginnings and the second one describing the struggles of living from job to job that we see in season 2. But the core of the story - of the show, of this duo, and of these characters separately - can be brought down to these four lines:

You got a fast car

Is it fast enough so we can fly away?

We gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

In case Tumblr messes with the quality, you can find the separate pieces, in order, under the cut.

Zay doodles on paper!!

very sorry for my absence, i’ve been super busy and also going through a lot medically and personally BUT i realised that i’d never drawn Zay on paper so I did

these were mostly to practice drawing curly hair tbh

i also literally just got back from seeing Revenge of the Sith!! (because i obviously wasn’t alive yet when it was released)

Nav info page!!

Nav is the son of Tech and Phee, who’s basically a carbon copy of his father, with his mother’s love for adventure, and joins the rebellion with his Aunt Omega and three younger cousins!!

i FINALLY had enough time to actually work on my ocs now that im not in exams every two minutes

More info under cut!!

Full name is Navarlan ‘Nav’ Aelius Genoa, but him and Tech tell EVERYONE that Nav is short for Navigator

Aelius: Greek word for sun/sunshine, because Nav is very much a walking ray of sunshine (even though he doesn’t know it)

Is literally so oblivious to people liking him (just like his dad!!) and needs to be straight up TOLD “i love you”, because he doesn’t understand any body language signals, and will just pass it off as the person being friendly

Has the same hairstyle/bandana as Phee, and takes after her by wearing gold charms in his hair all the time

Has a cat called Maya that he found malnourished on Pabu, and took back home (Maya is inspired by my cat Willow)

Maya is named Maya after the Weeping Maya tree on Pabu (Willow is named after Willow trees, so Maya is named after the Weeping Maya tree)

He has her even though Lula is deathly allergic to cats (which causes a lot of arguments), but Maya is everyones baby

Makes lightsabers for his favourite little cousin who’s an absolute menace <3

Only learnt how to build and repair things to make lightsabers for Zay, because she always manages to break them, and lose parts of them

going to crawl back into my hole of embarrassment now okay bye

love u echo so glad you came back

Social media post about Echo's un-unaliving. Original by @nibeul.

i don’t think there’s any rebel in the whole alliance who hasn’t had to walk through a fighting couple in the corridor

all rebels must put up with couples fighting in the corridors

OC doodles!!

i know ive been gone for ages but,, i study stem subjects so that’s my excuse (not a very good excuse tbh)

I never draw her but she’s cute and I’ll give some more context on her eventually (but her name’s Lula which will probably give away clues)

V info page!!

Vihan (nicknamed V by everyone) is the son of Riyo Chuchi and Echo, and a product of a one night stand (Gregor got them drunk), and they co-parent him, and as well as joining the rebellion, he’s an avid Palpatine hater in the senate!!

3/4 are done!! i just need to finish Zay’s now 😔

More info under cut!!

Full name is Vihan “V” Fives Chuchi (Echo chose his middle name)

Projected on him with his sexuality, and the fact that he just likes who he likes (which is literally me)

He met Palpatine due to his mother’s work, and he told V that his hair was ‘scruffy and unkempt’, so, out of spite he keeps it long

Dresses like an absolute loser when he’s not on missions or in gear and claims he’s a fashion icon (he’s not, Nav is)

Is the kind of person to wear baggy ass pyjamas to a formal rebel meeting

When he’s staying on Pabu to visit his dad, his hair goes really curly due to the sun, and then gets really frizzy after he leaves

Helps Riyo in the senate as much as he can, and fills out paperwork and searches documents in his free time to send to her

He collects materials for Zay to fidget with, and always wears whatever she makes

His necklace is the same colour as her kyber crystal so he wears it all the time

Is also very slightly force sensitive, and can just about maybe lift a pencil with it, but doesn’t train or anything, only meditates with Omega and Zay to keep them company (cough cough annoy them), since he can barely use the force

im still in a depressive ass episode but that’s okay because why be sad when you can expand on your ocs!!

Star Wars OC doodle page!!

i forgot to post this last week oops

i feel very lonely right now so hopefully posting this helps

i finally finished it (i think)

This is Azaylea (Zay) and she’s Crosshair’s daughter so she like,, doesn’t really have a last name

So here are some like facts about her!!

- Shes half Theelin, half Human and is no longer in contact with her mother (she died when Zay was two)

- She was found in a forest by Emerie and Echo, and they ran a DNA test on her to like,, find out where she came from, and then her DNA matched up to Crosshair’s and they were both like ‘wtf’

- She has a pink lightsaber!! She alternates between using Form II and Form IV (Ventress taught her Form II after Zay crash landed on a planet and ran into her)

- She found her kyber crystal in a cavern on Pabu, and has broken a total of 11 lightsabers (Nav made all of them and was not happy)

closeups under cut!!

now gonna go crawl in a hole i get so embarrassed posting for some reason
