Ngl, I had my theory on who Marrok could be too.🤡 My theory is that Marrok was Barriss. Turns out Marrok was...a body that was brought back with Nightsister's magic. I'm just thankful it wasn't Ezra. 🤣

Merrin, inviting Cal into her blanket fort: Let’s talk about the paranormal and witchcraft

Cal: Ok!

Cere, dragging Cal out by the foot: NO-

I think if Maul was a mermaid, he would be one of those freaky deep-sea fish that people are afraid of. (Based off of the Black Dragonfish, Idiacanthus sp.)

Not sure what kind of AU this is! I'm thinking "Maul gets cut in half, gets thrown into an ocean and becomes forever changed by the unknowable energies in the water."

And of course he found Obi-wan and is dragging him down :) Don't worry he's fine

Dathomir Tarot 1/3

[corvidscreams]

Day 27: Tabletop Cere plays a Jawa Bard for the tech bonus. Merrin is playing a Dathomirian Witch and argues with Greez about how her abilities should work. BD-1 and Cal have swapped for the bit so BD is playing an 8 foot Mandalorian Barbarian and Cal is the Droid Cleric who keeps forgetting he’s the party healer. Greez would appreciate having one session that doesn’t end with crumbs all over his goddamn floor. (Prev/Next)

so okay since we know the Force is what powers both Jedi and Nightsisters, and since Asajj Ventress became a jedi instead of practicing Nightsister magics, that means we can assume they’re equally attainable to any force user, right? Whether one not one can use both with ease, I’m not sure (maybe it’s a one-or-the-other situation), but you should be able to take a Force sensitive child and teach them one. Right?

So is it possible that Kata, should she have inherited her father’s sensitivity, could be trained by Merrin in Nightsister magics?

For the Christmas drabble thingy: MERRICAL & MISTLETOE

Since you were the first to send me an ask, you get an early answer! Most of these I'll probably answer during December sometime, depending on how many I get. (also, since I answered it early, you can send another one if you want! I don't have many asks at the moment lol)

Send me a ship and something Christmas-y and I'll write you a ficlet!

“So you really never celebrated Life Day on Dathomir?” Cal asked as he rummaged through a box of decorations.

“No,” Merrin said, eyeing the string of lights she was holding dubiously. “It was not a customary holiday.”

“Well, you’re going to love it,” Cal assured her. “It’s pretty popular in the Core world these days— and judging by the amount of decorations Greez has here, it’s pretty popular with these guys.” Selecting a small bundle of greenery, he frowned at it. “Greez, why do you have mistletoe?”

“It’s tradition, Kestis!” their pilot shouted from the cockpit. “Don’t scoff at tradition. Put it up over the doorway.”

“Okay, but I’m not kissing you.”

As Cal climbed to the top of the step ladder he’d located and began affixing it to the door frame, Merrin strolled over to study the plant. “What is this mistletoe?”

“It’s a plant from some Outer Rim world,” Cal explained, pinning it in place. “The tradition is, if two people end up underneath it together, they have to kiss, or it’s bad luck.”

“A good way to make the holidays awkward,” Cere chimed in from the kitchen, where she was settling mini bouquets of holly here and there with BD-1’s help.

Cal laughed, hopping down from the ladder. “I guess so. How does it look?”

“Good, I think,” Merrin replied from next to him, and Cal glanced at her. She met his gaze, a frown crossing her face. “Are we under the mistletoe?”

Cal’s eyes widened. “Oh. Yeah, I guess we are.”

“Hmm.” Merrin looked thoughtful for a moment, then leaned in and pressed a quick kiss against his lips. “We don’t want bad luck. On Dathomir, such things are to be avoided.”

As she headed to where Cere was watching with amusement, Cal watched her go. “Uh— yeah,” he said. “Seems… like a good move.”

Forget "gray Jedi" I want to explore Nightsister morality. A culture steeped in dark side magick but which seemingly has many members that shy away from pure evil.

Ventress, who's a Sith apprentice tossed aside, clinging to the dark yet occasionally drifting closer to the Light, using a yellow lightsaber, devoting herself to the Force while still using her hatred and pain? Merrin, who retains her Nightsister culture, resurrects the dead, and yet pries her Jedi lover from the very brink of the Dark she draws from?

I'd take exploration of this type over "gray Jedi" any day of the week.
