Evony the Jedi Exile, for @queen-scribbles [ Knights of the Old Republic II ]

Cora and Yuehai, for @commander-krios [ Star Wars The Old Republic ]

Joel and Arrow, for @joels6string [ The Last of Us ]

Always wonderful to do commissions for you all! Thank you! 💖

[bettydice]

@commander-krios commisioned me for a theme for their Revan and Canderous and this was mostly inspired by Until the End

Thank you for commissioning me! I greatly enjoyed working on something in the KotOR universe!

Trauma asks #6 and 9 for whomever you’d like!

q’s for muses who had a… r o u g h childhood Oof - finally getting to this - answering for Ozibaumnu ! Tagging @grandninjamasterren , as they are a simp for my favorite introverted blueberry!

6. what was the worst / most traumatic moment in their childhood? Oh, boy. There's a list. I'm going to go with the day he was separated from his sister and sold into slavery. He was already despondent after the deaths of his parents, and everything felt very before-and-after at that point.

9. what coping methods ( healthy or unhealthy ) did your muse learn during their childhood? He has several coping mechanisms, varying from reading to botany to - eventually - meditation. While nominally healthy, these and a multitude of other factors made him very insular, and slow to reach out to others. Eventually, he eased up. (Thank you Ashara)

Thank you for the asks!

🛼🥑🍄🥤🌻🕯️

🕯️ ⇢ on a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you enjoy editing? why is that?

Eh... 5??? Don't love it but I don't hate it hate it - editing can actually be kind of fun in the way untangling a massive yarn ball is fun, you start off with this immense mess and pull one errant strand and suddenly it all lines up and makes sense xD

🛼 ⇢ describe your latest wip with five emojis

🥑 ⇢ you accidentally killed somebody, which mutual(s) do you text for help?

... good question. Probably @schmendrickmagician due to The Warrior's Bond and also I inherently trust New Yorkers for helping with that kind of thing.

🥤 ⇢ recommend an author or fanfic you love

Ghost713! I tend to be more for one-shots or single stories & not authors as a whole in terms of what I seek in fic but Icca's stuff has been some of my favorites since first getting into ME fic.

🌻 ⇢ tag someone you appreciate but don’t talk to on a regular basis

@teamdilf ! Always quite encouraging c:

🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings

It's been a Shrios thinkin' week and maybe it's having had a miserably exhausting run at work, or that it's spring... anyway. Here's a happy one xD

I've always had it in my head that sometime during ME3, Adrian & Thane do actually get married in a private, very quick little ceremony; mostly because Adrian doesn't trust one half of her family and would like to ensure, in the very likely event of her death, there's no dispute over her assets going to Kolyat.

But in the alternate little canon I've been going with - so yes like, legally they're married, but it's kept quiet from literally everyone because A: there's a whole ass war going on and B: ... they're. Actually a tiny bit afraid. Because as much as they click, it has been a rather short time together, and neither of them actually believed they'd make it to the other side and see peacetime.

So there's that persistent fear of... 'what if we're too different, once we have a chance to grow outside of a pressure cooker'? (Doesn't help that these are also two people who've been deeply stifled in terms of deveolping a personal identity vs Really Fitting Into A Mold), and it probably does get brought up - and ultimately, well... it's scary, but if they drift apart, so be it, but might as well continue enjoying the ride until then, right?

Anyway about ten years later, a lot of people get invitations to a renewal/actual wedding ceremony and it's quite lovely :>

[primarch-victus]

replaying mass effect 3, more specifically citadel dlc atm, so here's what it's inspired ✨️ - part one

(part two)

[valkblue]

— 10 Characters

I was tagged by @commander-krios to play this game. Thank you for the tag, and sorry it took me two months to answer! 🤣

Rules: pick up to 10 characters and share one of your favorite lines of dialogue you have ever written for them!

Tagging: @isilrina @queen-scribbles @pheedraws @amistrio @mrdekarios @nostrategy-justdo @something-tofightfor @the-blind-assassin-12 @starknstarwars @joels6string @storyknitter ... and who wants to play along! 💕

I wouldn't say these are my ultimate favourite lines of dialogue but some that come to mind when trying to answer the question… but I still had to choose just one quote/snippet among them 😭

1. Lawrence Gonzalez, from Journey Into Night [ Westworld ]

"Hey!" He shouted at Lawrence, engaging in awkward conversation. "Where-uh... are you heading? We... we've got a few questions for you, you mind answering 'em?"

The whole thing would have looked a lot more compelling if he'd lowered his gun, and the ever-present threat of the canon urged Lawrence to keep silent and his own Colt trained on him.

"Is there somebody else with you, here ?"

"Listen, my friend," Lawrence drawled. "I'm all about meetin' new folks around, chattin' at gunpoint an' all but, ain't a good time right now..."

He took a few careful steps back towards his horse, still not lowering his Colt.

… Just one for Lawrence!?! Rude!!

2. Armistice, from Journey Into Night [ Westworld ]

Armistice turned away from her and wandered into the room's central space, looking around as if searching for the speakers set high into the concrete walls. Vivian watched her shoulders relax, her step lighten, and what she had at first thought to be the haze of surprise were nothing more than shuffling dance steps. The music matched the shift in Armistice's behaviour.

"It's... it's as if I can see the notes floating in the air!" She reached out in front of her with shy, trembling fingers. "All around..."

Even her speech was lighter, softer. Vivian was far from imagining she'd trigger such a strong response from her, but she took a slow breath, touched as much as relieved.

3. Maeve Millay, from Journey Into Night [ Westworld ]

Maeve's facial expression twitched slightly in frustration.

"I don't recall having seen you here. Not these days, not ever for that matter."

"You weren't part of my batch," Vivian answered flatly. "And yes, I was in the park."

"Enjoying some killing and fucking, I presume? One has to blow some steam, isn't it. Until everything blows in your face."

Vivian hardly unclenched her teeth to word out:

"You presume wrong, then."

Maeve scoffed, openly disdainful.

"Maeve..." Bernard stepped in, quieting what he might have guessed to be a brewing conflict. "Vivian was in the park because Ford intended for her to die at the gala with everyone else..."

"Is that supposed to make me feel sympathetic?"

4. Peter "The Professor" Abernathy, from Journey Into Night [ Westworld ]

"Free!" shouted the one standing in front of the map — Peter — as Lawrence, Bernard and Armistice approached. "Free, she is!" He glared at Armistice. "We have scortch'd the snake, not kill'd it! She'll close and be herself, whilst our poor malice remains in danger of her former tooth."

Lawrence was puzzled; Ivy had told him a little about the man and his state, but it was still worrying. Armistice, as for her, made no reply to this tirade.

"Pray she keeps quiet…"

"Any news from Shard?"

Bernard's question eased him back to a more neutral look.

"No, not yet."

5. The Man In Black "Delos" (VS Vivian), from Journey Into Night [ Westworld ]

She let out another sigh, calmer, but it got cut short by a gasp of surprise when a clatter of items dropped on the table in front of her and made her bring her arms back to her chest in a defensive gesture. Delos was standing right there and had just covered the table — and the maze — with a bunch of medical supplies. Medical supplies she recognized very well.

"You went through my saddlebags?!"

"Yeah," Delos retorted with an uncomfortable groan as he sat down. "Sue me…"

6. Hector Escaton, from Journey Into Night [ Westworld ]

Hector stepped into the changing room, two of the samurais holding the doors open for him. His eyebrows raised at Vivian's gun barrel pointed at him.

"You don’t know how this place works yet, do you, my friend?"

And, ignoring Vivian and the threat of her revolver, he faced Lawrence.

"Those are empty" he stated, as cynical as he was playful.

Vivian cocked the hammer. "Mine isn’t…"

"And what will you do, shoot me? And after that?"

The remark ruffled her feathers a little; not because of the teasing tone, but rather because she had indeed no idea what she was going to do. She'd only been caught off guard while she was finally easing up a bit and, these days, Vivian didn't like surprises.

"Hector, please…"

"Don’t waste your breathe on me, I’m only a messenger! So, if you aren’t planning on emptying your barrel on me just yet, I’ve been sent to ask you to follow me. Without a fight, if you can do that."

7. young Din Djarin, from Part 2, The Foundlings [ The Mandalorian ]

The young boy was sleeping, or seemed to be, when Din got close enough to see him clearly, his eyes well adjusted to the darkness of the room. He sat on the cold floor, shivering to feel the heat of his bed escape him but he tried to ignore it when Grinn whimpered again.

Din pulled the thick blankets on the boy’s back and gently squeezed his shoulder. Grinn didn’t wake up at his touch, nor moved, stifling another sob. Din struggled against the pain that was tightening his throat, swallowing hard.

“Sshh…”

The sound coming from his own mouth felt strange, unknown, new.

“It-it’s alright,” he heard himself breathe quietly. “You’re safe now.”

... or maybe this one from chapter 7 - The Corellian Run:

“And what’s a guilded bounty hunter’s business on Corellia?"

None of yours, Din would have loved to retort. But he kept his mouth shut. So much in fact, that he didn’t even answer, and an awkward silence lingered long enough for the agent to raise her eyes and stare at them.

... but he doesn't exactly speak, you see? 🤣 So, does it still count?!

8. Greef Karga, from chapter 2 - The Remnant, Lost and Found [ The Mandalorian ]

“One more thing before I let you go…"

Din readied himself to receive another load of unpleasant news. But Karga only took something from one of the desk cabinets, something he gave him over the tabletop and that Din recognized with a touch of relief — his missing thigh plate.

"This is yours, I believe?"

He first stared at Karga before reaching for his piece of armor.

"You know, we have laws against littering in this city, now."

He scoffed before adding:

"But I’ll let it pass this time.”

9. Peli Motto, from chapter 7 - The Corellian Run, Lost and Found [ The Mandalorian ]

“Your crew won’t be a problem, right?" she insisted, both fists on her hips and making her thick curls jump on her shoulders with a nod. "You see, they have a kid… And a lil’ one like that don’t need all that spacer ronto scrag, okay?" Without taking her fists off her sides, she shot a quick glance over her shoulder at Elara to whom she said: "No offense, of course."

"None taken." Elara pursed her lips to hold back a smile; to be honest, she was more or less sharing Peli’s opinion on the matter.

10. Tip-yip The Child 🤫, from chapter 5 - The Scholar, Lost and Found [ The Mandalorian ]

The glow grew darker and the voice made his mind rumble like the storm in the orange skies over the tall trees of that world where he had been, like the mechanical heart of the ships cutting through the black void and shimmering stars…

He doesn't speak, but he perceives...

Writer asks: 2, 5 and 14

Writer Asks!

How long have you been writing? Academically and professionally? For a long time. Back when I was in school, I could usually turn out a 3-5 page paper the night before it was due and get a B+ / A- on it. In my profession, writing is actually part of my job. I like it, but it can get monotonous. A lot of the stuff I write will probably be written by a computer in a few years. If you mean creatively, then its been off and on for most of my life. When i'm engaged in an activity that motivates me, I can write quite a bit. When I started playing RPGs, many of the games allowed players to submit Literaries covering what their character was doing during "down times" and so on. That was a big thing. I planned to GM an RPG of my own once, and filled a notebook with notes on stories, NPCs, setting and so on. Sadly, my group broke up before I could run it. Its still in a drawer someplace. When I started writing SWTOR fanfic, it was the first real creative writing I had done in a while. And it… felt good. Like i hadn't used those muscles in years.

What's your favorite genre to write? Probably Fluff, followed by Angst.

Do you ever collaborate with others? @chaosandwonder was kind enough to lend me her lovely Jedi Consular for my "The Only Ones Who Can" piece. Likewise, @taraum let me borrow Daesha Ven for "A Hero’s Reward". More recently, @raven-of-domain-kwaad have been writing stories with her OCs in my Adas Legacy story. So that's going well!

Thank you for the asks @commander-krios !
