It's Not Always About Victory

Nah, I think he's just being dramatic

Fulminous

When Claudia casts this spell in S1E3, she draws a neat, single line that looks like calligraphy.

When Aaravos busts this spell out during the fight in S2E9, he drama queens the shit out of it

and then Viren shoots the lightning out of his staff.

And now all I can think about is, has drawing the runes has changed over the past millennium, evolving over time as penmanship does, or is this literally the difference between Claudia’s and Aaravos’s handwriting?

So it's just Callum, Rayla and Zym now?

For some reason the image that comes directly to my mind is Callum and Rayla in bodyguard outfits with cool sunglasses and Zym very swaggy in the middle.

They walk through town, the people make a path for them and then:

Callum trips.

She saw her moment and got glossed up for it

THANK YOU (also why the hell is he so beautiful?)

Isn't Mandalore all about the will of the people? So when there is Bo and obi with Jango the people mostly rally behind them and both sides call for Satine to step down, which she eventually has to because you can't rule people who don't wanna be ruled if you're not gonna use violence. So then there would be a power vacuum because neither Bo nor Obi (or Jango??? I dunno) can definitely claim the throne and Bo challenges them which would be the time when Jango gets kidnapped?

If you want me to stop making suggestions please tell me, this is your story and I don't want to be rude or anything

@1elysium​ the dha kar’ta post was super heckin long, so i thought i’d answer you over here!

i can’t speak for fiori, but i’m so glad you’re enjoying it!! this au already means a lot to me, and the support for it so quickly has been amazing, both on here and ao3. I’m thinking between two and three years between Illum and Jango meeting them! i need time for Obi to build a relationship with Dooku and Anakin, and Dha lol. 

i haven’t given much thought to Obi taking a padawan, because i haven’t solidified my wants for the clones just yet. you’re right, they started them right about the time of the invasion of Naboo, but since Dooku was the one to orchestrate getting Jango involved, i don’t see that happening in this ‘verse. which breaks my feckin heart cause i LOVE the clones and Boba and i definitely implied in the force visions that Boba was a possibility, but i can’t figure out how to make it work 😭if Obi were to take a padawan, ahsoka is definitely a possibility, but savage has also crossed my mind. but yes he would absolutely raise them as Mando’ade Jedi. 

as for Dooku being involved with Palps, i’ve actually been thinking about that! i think he’s suspicious yes, but that’s the thing about a sith lord, he can warp people’s perceptions of him and his actions, and he has a lot of power that the council is beholden to, and Dooku IS a little busy trying to keep his other dumbass grandson alive. so while he’s still with the order, he’s off planet a LOT even before Jango searches them out.

now, that being said, Anakin is an eldritch force vessel in this, which he was not in the canon timeline. the force is semi-sentient and endless and exists on multiple layers of spice-time and is basically fucking canon in an attempt to keep Obi-Wan alive. which means it can’t allow Anakin to fall. which means Palps has less icky fingers in Anakin’s brain and while Anakin might not be totally aware of his status as a vessel, he knows to trust the force because on Tatooine, that’s all he had. i’ll save my other thoughts for the actual fic, but while Palps does manipulate Anakin to an extent, he doesn’t have nearly as strong a foothold.

and @theclonewarsbrokeme​ because this story is your baby too

Do it!

I think in this regard especially, Cassian achieves what Luthen really wants to be. At least on a moral standpoint because Cassian does all this and still so very deeply cares about everyone, while Luthen has had to stop caring and instead make horrible horrible choices.

I love that yet again we see Cassian take a back seat so someone else can rally the troops, someone else takes center stage and the credit.

In this case, it's Maarva. Last time they spoke, he said he didn't understand why she was staying, why she wanted to fight a revolution against an impossible force.

But this time, he gets it. He lets her word be the rallying call for her home, he makes sure EVERYBODY gets to hear it, that the entire town gets called out to listen to her final speech as he goes in to rescue Bix in the shadows.

He runs from hiding place to hiding place as Brasso stands at the front of a crowd, walks them towards a wall of Imperial soldiers, and leads them in the fight for freedom.

Cassian isn't a Big Damn Hero. He's not someone whose name is known or remembered. He's not a leader who makes the big speech to a crowd.

He's a spy. He observes, he notices things, he figures out the plan that has to happen in order to succeed at the goal. He's the one who puts it all together and then steps away from the spotlight so he can do it all over again.

He’s not angry he’s disappointed (he’s also pretty angry)

no hope for that guy

"I am Ironman"

Fuck yes you are and I love you. You Brocken my heart and the last thing that pepper said: "You can rest now" 😭

I am so glad I got to watch these movies and see the Tony Stark character ark and it was SO GREAT. He did not deserve all this and, oh god I'm crying again.

Have a good rest Tony, you did it. You saved them all
