Happy two-year anniversary to the game that grabbed my soul and hasn't let go, Jedi Survivor! For whatever reason, this game made me start writing regularly again, made me remember that I enjoy fanfiction, and dumped me into a rarepair that I think of...a lot.

For Unaffiliated Writing Month last year I started writing a fic based on an idea that got batted around the spyscrapper discord, and I've noodled on it since, but it's not finished. However, for the game anniversary we've got the collaborative BodeCalBingo from @bodecalweek and it was just too perfect to pass up grabbing a couple squares for the first two chapters of this fic. And if I may be so humble, I think what I’ve got here is pretty epic, so it’s nice to introduce it on the game’s anniversary.

I really want to finish this one, but it's gonna take a while (the wip document is over 35k!). Please come after me to finish it. I don’t have a schedule when future installments will go up, but they will. They will. I hope.

But what if there was a way to replace Cal's eye with Bode's? What if Cal has to live with a constant source of echoes always within him?

Special thanks to @voidcat-senket and @azu-mog for informing me about all sorts of things.

(I also wrote a couple of very smutty bodecal fics for other bingo squares. And this is my anniversary fix-it fic from last year featuring art from @corvidscreams !)

[bodecalweek]

So. I got the bug about 4 hours ago to finally put this idea to video for Jedi Survivor's anniversary tomorrow. I'd had this in mind ever since hearing the song used, "The View Between Villages" by Noah Kahan, hope you enjoy! The squares I used for the bingo are Cal-centric and TPK

[bodecalweek]

Have you ever wondered what would happen if everything was good and nothing hurt ?

Here Kata has cake and BD, Cal and Bode are happy and sleepy and love cuddling under some Tanalorr three in their special spot ✨

@bodecalweek is hosting a collaborative bingo event for the Jedi Survivor 2-year game anniversary and I'm all about getting stamps on my bingo card, so here's my first entry to check off the "lightsaber" square (and, as was pointed out to me, the "blaster" square as well that I totally spaced on because I was so focused on writing the 'saber part of the fic and...another that you'll have to infer)

Also, I apologize for archive locking the fic, but the whole of AO3 (and a bunch of other repository sites) just got scraped to train AI and it's a bit of the horse already left the stable but let's not steal other folks' creative works, yeah?

Squaring off Jedi, Spy, and, as is usual, Betrayal for BodeCal Bingo

[bodecalweek]

Bode travels to Bogano to learn more about his next mark, and discovers more than he bargained for while meditating in the crumbling ruins.

Made for the BodeCal Anniversary Bingo squares Bode Centric, Meditation, and Future (and Betrayal, of course).

[bodecalweek]

So what exactly does freespace mean in "Betrayal (Freespace)"?

I really wasn’t as clear as I thought on this!

The Betrayal (Free Space) square is FREE. This means that you can (and should) use Betrayal as a prompt but it does not count toward the three square maximum. So if you use Betrayal on a fic, you could list Wing Fic, Cal-Centric, Jedi, and Betrayal as squares.

Please list it if you use it, I wanna stamp that puppy 100 times.

[bodecalweek]

Welcome to the BodeCal Anniversary Bingo event!

The march of time betrays us all, so we almost missed the anniversary of the release of Jedi Survivor! But not to worry, our anniversary event this year is a collaborative bingo card.

The Rules: Pick any prompts you like (from one to three squares per work) and make a creation about them! Post using the tag BodeCal Bingo and we will reblog your work and mark off the squares you filled. There is an AO3 Collection, bodecalbingo, here, that you can use for the event.

EDIT: the Betrayal (Free Space) square is FREE. This means that you can (and should) use Betrayal as a prompt but it does not count toward the three square maximum. So if you use Betrayal on a fic, you could list all of Wing Fic (1), Cal-Centric (2), Jedi (3), and also Betrayal (4) as squares. We will run the event from Monday April 21st to May 6th, and as before, all types of fan works are accepted: if you think it counts, it does. Just make sure to mention which squares you’re filling on the post or in the notes on AO3 so we can stamp it off. Happy anniversary, everyone, let's work together toward a full blackout.
