I have realized I have yet to post my vampire Bad Batch. Here is Tech, complete with fancy glasses and perfect widows peak vampire hair.

"Only if You WANT to Die"

Fangtastic Tech edit by @apocalyp-tech-a

Tech has been a vampire for centuries, only drinking from those who say they want to die. But when he finds you grieving and sets out to make you his next victim, he finds that he wants nothing more than for you to live.

I blame Tumblr for this one! The above edit by @apocalyp-tech-a made my eyes go wide, @vimse got me thinking with this gorgeous post, and @anxiouspineapple99 keeps fueling my Halloween brain (I even snuck in one of your prompts, mwah-ha-ha)!

One by one, the “mourners” walked away, until it was only you and one of the town elders left beside the six neat piles of freshly disturbed clay. Tech watched as you knelt beside the grave of your youngest brother and placed your hand gently on the small mound. The elder spoke words of comfort, promising that you would be reunited with your family in the Force someday. “Someday very soon ,” Tech whispered with a hint of a smile. “I don’t want to live without them, good elder. I can’t. I wish I had died with them.” That was all Tech needed to hear.

READ THE REST HERE!

Please leave a kudo on AO3 if you liked it! Kudos are protein for my writing muscles!

shocking that Plagiarism Machines designed to steal human creative thought drain the life-force of those who use them

Study: "artificial intelligence" reduces productivity, increases burnout

incredibly damning new study on generative "AI" shows that corporate boss-types still are fooled into believing it'll boost productivity - 96% of them expect "AI" to increase productivity levels: 39% of corpos mandate using bot-generators, and 46% more encourage it

however, "AI" has not delivered on its promises: nearly half of employees using it say they have no idea how it can offer productivity gains, and 77% say it actually decreases productivity while adding to their workload

also: "LLMs aren’t very bright. Why are so many people fooled?"

only some coders and techbros seem to like this stuff

when patients are upset or nervous about their blood being drawn, sometimes i'll say "oh, don't worry, our vampires are extremely good at what they do." generally it works to relieve some tension or at least as a pause in the anxious build-up because it's absurd enough that the brain goes 'panic time? pani- wait what. that isn't in the script. hang on, hang on, stall the panic engines for a sec we need the power to run the logic centers again'. yesterday i said that many times. worked pretty great each time.

however.

towards the end of my shift, patient comes in with two family members. i get them checked in, during which this happens...

me: "What brings you in today?"

patient, brightly: "I need blood!"

me: "Oh, are you feeling a little hungry? We can..."

me, slowly processing those words: "...help........with....that."

patient: "My doctor yelled at me to come in because my blood is apparently lethally low, so-"

patient's family member A: "Did you just ask if she was hungry?"

me, slowly dying inside: "yeah, i- sometimes when people get their labs drawn i'll tell them don't worry, our vampires do excellent work, so i just"

(during this I am putting on their ID wristband and also apparently making inarticulate gestures trying to explain the whole mess)

me: "i am sorry, that was not a professional way of greeting you. please have a seat, the nurse will call you in a bit to finish-"

pt family member B: "do you guys have a cafeteria? Is it still open?"

me: "no, it isn't-"

pt family member B: "or i guess you'd call it a blood bank, right?"

me: "i...we...do have a cafeteria. it's not a cafeteria right now. i mean it is a cafeteria but the kitchen- there's just vending machines. and microwaves. it's down the hall and the second hallway on the right side."

pt family member B: "is there ice cream?"

me: "mayb- no I think there is, actually."

me, internally: you have 38 fucking minutes left of your shift fucking reengage brain and deal with it

while i am checking in the rest of the evening rush i hear the patient greet family member C. family member B comes back at about the same time, gesturing triumphantly with a frozen snickers bar. faintly i hear family member B saying something like "none for you, sorry, no type-B popsicles." family member A and patient start laughing, family member C is clearly taken aback.

family member A: " oh yeah (patient)'s real hungry for bluuuurd, that's why we're here."

patient: "I went up and said i needed blood and she asked if i was hungry, you know, like a vampire."

family member B: "it was great!"

Can a tent withstand a missile? A roof of cloth, dreams of dust... Can it withstand the hell of iron and fire? Can the bodies of children endure, as they melt beneath the flames of all this injustice? ‼️🚨💔😔We are dying, please help us.

Thanks for giving my sexy, blood-sucking Tech fic a try in JUNE! 😆

Fandom Friday, 06/28: Fanfiction

Hello again, everyone...

Here marks the second half of my latest Fandom Friday post. For Part 1 dealing with fanart, please click the link below.

Also, this list might be a bit small, because I haven't been reading as much fanfiction as I normally do...but fear not, because I hope to dig up the normal amount of links next week, as I think I might be in a much better mood at that time.

And now, without further hesitation...here are my fanfiction picks for the week.

THE CLONE WARS

The Clone Wars Fanfiction--By @enigmatist17

THE BAD BATCH

The Bad Batch Fanfiction--By @knightprincess

The Bad Batch Fanfiction--By @eclec-tech

STAR WARS REBELS/AHSOKA

Star Wars Rebels/Ahsoka Fanfiction--By @ddringo

In conclusion, as part of my mission to poke around the Star Wars fandom and, on Friday every week, highlight those artists who might otherwise go unnoticed…I hope you will check out the links I have included for yourselves and like, comment on, and reblog them, as well as also giving the artists a few more followers to their Tumblr pages.

Please also like and reblog this latest installment so that these links can be spread around to as many other fans as possible, just in case not all of them can tune in at the same time.

An additional thank you goes to @djarrex for making the divider I used earlier in this post, but still want to give credit for.

And finally, so that I do not forget…thank you to my friends, thank you to this fandom, good afternoon, and good luck.

Has no one noticed that the video the Talamasca has of Daniel gets glitchy twice. Someone is trying to corrupt that signal, and I have a feeling it might be this baby vamps maker.

Got to love the fact that Louis and Armand have both contributed to creating a homey feeling around the kitchen they don’t need.

Louis has stacked the place with snacks for the comfort of men he’s going to fuck, get secondhand high by, and possibly have for dinner.

Armand has installed a shiny new kitchen appliance.

Poor Daniel is about to learn that The Microwave Man is not the same as The Plumber when it comes to hookups.

(Also got to love the scenographers for putting a microwave in that kitchen. Few had one in their home in 1973, but trust the little tech gremlin to own one.)

I have a confession to make…

I don’t think I want Spike in the reboot if they’re planning on making him a human in order to accommodate his older look. Being a badass, powerful vampire was a huge part of his appeal to me.

What’s the solution then?

Easy.

Make an animated series!
