"He misses the long discussions aboard the Ghost terribly. He has to admit it: this silence, even filled with scattered words, makes him gloomy. Out of the corner of his eye, he watches Thrawn bent over his datapad, a note open with a long list that he checks off as he goes along and annotates with numbers."

Chapter 6: His place is no longer there.

[ao3duun]

I just finished rereading chapter 6 😊 I'll post it soon, just a few more adjustments and corrections to make. And I split this chapter in two so I could take more time to tell the whole story 😌

Okay, I just finished chapter 7 🥳 I have a few adjustments to make, but nothing too serious. And to think that the whole first part was supposed to be finished 🥲 But I decided to add some chapters and, honestly, it's for the best: it lays the groundwork and gives a better overview of Thrawn and Ezra's development… Right now, I'm very satisfied 😌

Specifically, the first part, called “The Capsule,” is almost finished. I just need to rewrite chapter 8, and then I can move on to the second part! In any case, thank you to everyone who reads my work. I really appreciate it 🌈

"Carefully, Thrawn removes the splint Ezra has been wearing for several cycles now. Ezra stares stubbornly at his feet. Since the incident, the boy has been avoiding eye contact."

Chapter 5: The one who should have died

I finally decided to represent the dominant species of Cion FS4! At first, I thought about basing them on aarakocras, but in the end, I decided to create a species all their own! And they don't have a name yet... it'll come, it'll come! But here's what they look like 😊

"Painfully, he opens his eyes. His vision is blurred, and he can only make out blurred patches of color, mainly shades of blue, white, and red. For a moment, he wonders if he's still on the deck of the Chimaera and if the ship is still in hyperspace. Yet he feels nothing, not even the presence of the Purggils. His mind struggles to focus, but everything seems far away, as if he's trapped between life and something else—but not death. Not yet, anyway."

"Night had fallen and a cool breeze blew away the stifling desert heat. Ezra stood atop a plateau where fine sand swirled with every gust of wind. His eyes were fixed on a dome as vast as a city; a dark silhouette nestled in the darkness. Everything was quiet. Perhaps too quiet. But it was not quiet enough to silence the unease creeping beneath his skin. Ezra swallowed. The Force stirred all around him, a dull wave vibrating deep in his gut. He knew it. He felt it. Something was about to happen and that would shatter the night's tranquillity. A disaster. No. Worse."

Hey just a quick check in- now that musk is like severely imploding on trump and their severed ties

Yall won't forget this part right?

Yall won't forget he's still a massive scumbag right? That he's still a nazi right? That won't get lost in translation right???

(I don't THINK it'll get forgotten but I really want to remind people that just because Musk is now bashing trump for all the shit we've known about him for awhile that we don't forget he was complicit. If anything his bashing and airing out trumps laundry makes it worse, because he KNEW all that and still worked with him.)

Je vais écrire pour une fois en français, parce que c'est important pour moi de le retranscrire comme tel ; Rima Hassan est à mes yeux une grande femme, députée française et qui c'est tellement battu, avec d'autres députés également et autres visages politiques (je pense entre autre à De Villepin), pour faire connaitre la vérité en Palestine et les atrocités qu'ils vivent — elle est d'ailleurs d'origine palestinienne, elle sait, c'est son histoire — pendant que les médias français relaient les mensonges d'Israhell et suce comme il faut cette bande de connard génocidaire (mais bon, colabo un jour, colabo toujours, j'imagine ?)

Madame Hassan, j'espère de tout cœur que vous allez revenir en France saine et sauve, je prie pour vous ce soir et bien sûr, je prie pour le reste de l'équipage, que ce voyage se déroule sans accroc et qu'il soit une réussite !

greta thunberg, liam cunningham, rima hassan, and everyone else on that ship, thank you, and i hope you succeed. i really hope you succeed. you know what you are risking, and i wish for you to come back safely, having done what you set out to do.

Hi

: A Message from Adham in Gaza

Peace be upon you,

I'm Adham from Gaza. I now live in a tent ⛺ with my family after our home was destroyed.

My brother was killed while trying to get us food 🥖, and others in my family were badly injured ⚠️. I'm the only one left to care for them.

We urgently need food 🍽️, shelter 🏠, and medical care 💊.

Please, any donation — big or small — can help us survive 🤲.

May God bless you for your kindness and compassion ❤️.💕💞

With hope,

Adham

i still think one of tumblr's darkest moments (much worse than anything i've seen before and i have been here since 2011) was when random fandom bloggers started doing confidently accusing people living through a genocide of being scammers. i think there's a lot that has happened on this website but the juxtaposition of running something so trivial as a fandom blog (i have been in fandom for a long time and triviality here is not an insult but an understanding of what makes it light) while doing something so enormously heavy and dark has me reeling

"For the past two hours, Ezra has remained silent and prostrate in a corner of the capsule, swaying from side to side as if trying to soothe an overwhelming malaise. The Chiss observes him out of the corner of his eye, feeling both contrition and worry. He regrets this hasty decision. He should have left Ezra on the Chimaera and let the Force decide his fate."

"His body feels heavy, as if it were made of lead rather than flesh. His breathing is labored and wheezy. As he regains consciousness, the pain awakens—brutal and acute. It pounds his skull and back, radiating through his muscles and nerves. Soon, nausea sets in as an acrid taste of blood invades his mouth."

Well, I finally split Volume 1 into four parts instead of three. The first part only covers the chapters that take place in the escape pod. However, I'm still adding chapters. We love extra work! After all, I signed up for this, too 😶‍🌫️

I've heard that he prowled around the most remote villages on winter nights. He waited patiently for the weakest to get lost in a storm. He was said to whisper lies, pretending they were the truth. He promised peace disguised as madness. Every time a soul agreed to follow him, his hooves sank a little deeper into the earth, poisoning it. He drove them from their homes and trapped them in turmoil. All that remained of them were two arms, one leg, and their emaciated rib cages. The earth itself no longer wanted them because nothing grew around their remains. So every night, mothers sang to their children, "Never follow the loth-deer, or it will devour you."
