In the trilogy, I don't think Thrawn ever references Bel Iblis by his name. Just variously rephrased versions of "the Corellian."
Coming from someone like Thrawn, I think that's a pretty hideous insult. He knows you better than you know yourself, and he's so unimpressed that you're not even worthy of being addressed on a more specific basis than the name of your homeworld.

Finally got something written - my Andor fic, starring Mon Mothma without a husband!
Summary: In one life, Mon Mothma had a family – an untrustworthy husband and a teenage daughter. But not all women need or want a family, not all women are built to regret their lost chances.
This is the story of a Mon Mothma who had nothing to regret and regretted nothing.
Enjoy!

ans: Thank you so much for the request, and of course! I love this idea so much and had a lot of fun with it!
Summary: You and Padme have been restricted to keep your love a secret, with both of you being Senators it would be deemed unacceptable to the public. So when Padme had been a little on edge as of recent, you decided to help her release some of it, in the privacy of her office. (takes place before order 66, Obviously)
Content: MDNI, 18+, girl on girl, afab reader, making out, fingering, praise, oral sex, eating out.
A/N: sorry for the late posts! I have many requests!! But please keep requesting I love writing! Again sorry for any grammar or punctuation mistakes.

The Galactic Senate, also referred to as the Congress of the Republic, is composed of Senators from various Planets and Star systems all across the Galaxy. Being presided over by Supreme Chancellor Palpateine. The Senate helps resolve disputes between the varying Planets, following strict laws and regulations that are necessary to help keep the Republic from falling. Being a Senator came with a large responsibility, a large responsibility came with a lot of work, and a lot of work took up a lot of your time. You knew what you signed up for when Garm bel Iblis, Senator of Corellia, asked you to take over his position within the Galactic Senate. You had been by his side for years as his right hand, working as his assistant. You proved your loyalty for not only him but for the Planet of Corellia, he trusted you, proving your right for Senator. 
You’ve been in the Senate for a few years now, creating peace and union between Corellia and the many other Planets across the Galaxy, learning how to benefit from one another, helping Corellia flourish stronger than ever. One of the many Planets being Naboo, run by Senator Padme Amidala, she was kind and it helped that the two of you followed the same beliefs when it came to politics. When you first pitched the idea for Naboo and Corellia to create a union, you promised that Corellia would send food supplies over to Naboo, in exchange for protection through association. Senator Amidala was quick to take the offer especially due to Naboo’s trade blockade which was designed to ruin them. Naboo was left helpless after Sanandrassa had held to a policy of isolation which unwittingly assisted Sidious' plans to weaken Naboo, depleting its stocks of food, leaving its people in danger of starvation and by blockading Naboo they were effectively starving the planet’s people of basic needs such as food, in order to obtain a main source of income as well as power. So when you offered to help the people of Naboo rather than rob them dry of their planet’s core, Senator Amidala was more than eager to agree to the alliance of Corellia and Naboo. 
Having made this union, the two of you have spent many days, and countless hours working alongside each other, creating not only a partnership but a new found friendship. You enjoyed her company and there was no denying that she enjoyed your company just as much, working with each other never felt like a chore, never felt like a burden on either of your shoulders, dare you say it was rather fun. The bond you shared was like no other, eventually you found yourself sparking these forbidden feelings that never once should have come to fruition. It wasn’t long before these feelings became desires, dreaming and waiting on the day the two of you could act on one another, but having the title in the Political world that the two of you had, it would never be deemed acceptable. So the two of you decided that you would keep your romantic feelings towards each other a secret from the rest of the Galaxy, in hopes to keep the love you had for each other alive as long as possible.
So here you were inside Padme’s office on her home Planet Naboo, discussing new plans to expand your treaty out to other Planets across the Galaxy, creating a larger fondation to your agreements. You wanted nothing more to help Padme ensure the safety of her people, no matter the cost. “I believe it may be smart to reach out to Lothal to help give you a free shipment of Blastech weaponry for your guards here on Naboo.” You said sitting on the edge of Padme’s desk looking down at her holographic grid, with every union she has made for Naboo. Padme’s hand rested on her chin, she was thinking hard, what she was thinking, you wished you knew but you knew it would be something selfless as always. “I will not bring chaos into my home, Naboo is meant to hold peace and serenity. . I can’t do that by making my people worry about the loads of weaponry we have on stand-by.” She said sternly not lifting her eyes at you. 
“I understand that Padme, but how are you going to keep your people safe if another attack like Nute Gunray’s happens again.” You raised your voice to her, you were frustrated, Padme wouldn’t open her mind to the bigger picture, she needed to understand that these reinforcements would become handy incase of another attack. Her eyes finally looked up to face you, you felt your heart skip a beat as you lifted yourself off her desk and walked over to her. “Look Padme, I’m just trying to help create a solution to keep the people of Naboo safe, to keep you safe!” 
“I can Handle my own safety” She was quick to nip back at you. It was true she could handle herself just fine, she was a strong leader, who knew how to defend her ground but you could never help but worry. “ I didn’t mean to suggest you alone need protection, my love.” You said softly, gently resting your hands on her hips. “ I just get worried. I wanna protect you, but there is only so much I alone can do. I'm no soldier, or jedi.” You watched as her eyes softened at her words. “I know it’s just” She sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. “It’s all so much” Seeing her stressed like this made you unsettled, there were only very few moments where you’ve seen Padme on edge. “Well maybe you need to just step away for a moment and. . clear your mind.” You said striking the question. Her head tilted a small grin creeping across her face. “And what is it you may be implying?” she asked, cocking her brow. “I believe we both know what I have in mind.” You felt Padme’s arms wrap around your neck pulling you down closer to her face. “Oh really? Perhaps you should show me” 
You leaned down, lips brushing against hers. “Say no more” and just like that you closed the gap between you and Padme planting a firm but gentle kiss against her lips. Her hands entangled through your hair and the grip on her hips pulled her close. Her touch was intoxicating, she was your drug and you couldn’t get enough. Your kisses began to trail along her jaw and down her neck, making trails of kisses against her soft skin. Padme let a soft moan as she bit down on her bottom lip gently, as your hands trailed up her shirt, pulling it over her head, revealing her breasts, causing her nipples to harden from the cold hitting against her skin. Reaching down your mouth latches over one of her breasts, your tongue swirling around her nipple. You made sure to switch between the two giving both of her breasts the care and attention they needed. Padme felt a shiver shot down her spine, pleasure coursing through her body, she was aching for attention, she wanted more. As your lips free her breasts, you grab her hips once more guiding her over to her desk, lifting her up just enough so she is sitting on top of her desk, Padme’s legs wrapping around your waist pulling you in tight. Your lips find hers once again, your tongue pushing past her lips, lapping with hers. Your free hand made its way down and in between her legs, dragging your hand along her clothed pussy causing Padme to break free of the kiss with a gasp, a trail of saliva breaking at your separation. “Tell me what you want Padme” You said to her sternly, your hand still rubbing against her core. Looking up at you with her pleading eyes she let out in a faint whisper. “Please, touch me” 
A smile grew across your face as your fingers hooked to the hem of both her pants and panties pulling them down revealing her wet pussy. Your head slowly dips down, as you rested on your knees, reaching your hands out and spreading her legs apart. You started gently running your fingers along the inside of her thigh, lightly tracing circles near her core, causing Padme to shiver. You could feel her arousal building up, leaning in as you kissed the inner part of her thighs, your lips leaving a trail of soft kisses as you moved closer to her pussy. you gently blew a warm breath across her sensitive area, making Padme gasp slightly. Your tongue darted out, flicking her clit, sending a wave of pleasure through her body. She let out a moan, pleased with her reaction, you continued and picked up the pace. 
Your tongue delved deeper, exploring every inch of her folds, lapping up her wetness with enthusiasm. Your hands caressed Padme’s thighs, occasionally squeezing them, while you also brushed your thumb against her entrance, teasing her further. Your pace increased the louder she moaned, arching her back in pleasure. You knew exactly how to push her closer to the edge. you felt as she squirmed beneath you, needy and desperate for release. A wicked smile spread across your face, enjoying her reactions. Padme's hips bucked, pushing herself against your mouth. Pulling away with a smirk you look up at her “not yet my love” You whispered, your hot breath falling against her pussy. You could feel her orgasm approaching, you took your index and middle finger and slowly slid them inside her, feeling her walls tighten around your fingers. Your movements were slow and deliberate as you pumped your fingers into her. “Fuck. . more” Padme let out a whine, and so you complied adding a third finger stretching her open feeling as her wetness continued to coat your fingers.
As you continued to thrust your fingers into her, your thumb rubbed against her clit, applying just the right amount of pleasure. Padme arched her back, trying to push your fingers deeper inside. “Please, I want to cum” She moaned out to you. You began to pick up the pace, your head reaching down once again, tongue lapping her clit as your fingers continued to pump into her. “Are you close, my love?” You asked, the vibration of your words hitting against her clit. Padme nodded her head, being unable to speak. “Then cum for me” you commanded, your fingers keeping a steady pace. 
It wasn’t long before her orgasm hit her like a wave, her walls gripping around your fingers tightly. Once she finally came down from her high, You slipped your fingers out of her pussy and made your way up to her face planting a kiss against her lips once more, her legs wrapped around you holding you close, her lips molding perfectly against your own. Pulling away with a smirk you look down at her before giving her one last quick kiss. “God I love you” you said to her, your smile spreading wide across your face. “ I love you too.” She returned the smile, her hand coming up to cup your face, her thumb caressing your cheek, as she spoke softly. “Now, we have business to attend to.”

By 9 ABY, the New Republic had liberated Coruscant, the Galactic capital, and established its government there. After leading the Rebellion and then the Republic through the heady days of the Galactic Civil War, Mon Mothma stepped down as Chancellor, leaving behind a Senate divided into four major power blocs.
Tumblr media
THE ORGANA BLOC
Progressive People's Party (center-left, 364 seats): The majority successor to the original Progressive Party which acted as the Rebellion's political wing in the Republic and Imperial Senates, the PPP is majority social democratic and socially progressive. As it carries the Progressive Party's reputation of being the "party of the Rebellion" and the standard-bearer of Mothmism, the PPP enjoys widespread popularity and is the largest party in the Senate, despite surging poll numbers for the opposition after a half-decade of PPP governance. Led by Leia Organa of Coruscant.
Liberal Party (center, 56 seats): Socially liberal and fiscally moderate, the Liberal Party is one of the few parties to survive from the time of the Old Republic in its current form. The Progressive Party was originally a splinter faction from the Liberals, and they affiliate with its successor the PPP in the government coalition. Led by Rees Vera of Mikkia.
Federalist Party (center-left, 39 seats): A social liberal party which advocates for increased decentralization of the New Republic and the establishment of devolved regional governments. Led by Boona Kalan of Taris.
Tumblr media
THE IBLIS BLOC
People's Union Party (far left, 122 seats): A socialist party which advocates for the restructuring of Galactic society on a free and equal basis, the transfer of the means of production into the hands of the working class, and the development of a socialist mode of production. In practical terms, the party is democratic socialist and draws strong support from industrial worlds and unions. Local parties such as the Communist Party of Corellia and the Gran Socialist Union are affiliates of the PUP. Led by Garm Bel Iblis of Corellia.
Reform Party (left, 44 seats): A democratic socialist party which argues for a fundamental restructuring of the New Republic into a "Federation of Free Alliances." A successor to the original Reform Party in the Old Republic. Led by Cal Omas of New Alderaan.
Libertarian Party (far left, 2 seats): A loose affiliation of anarchists. Collective leadership.
Tumblr media
THE FEY'LYA BLOC
Progressive Conservative Party (center right, 201 seats): A liberal conservative party which is hawkish on military matters and foreign affairs. Generally socially conservative with more liberal factions while remaining economically liberal. The minority splinter of the original Progressive Party. Led by Borsk Fey'lya of Bothawui.
Constitutionalist Party (center, 89 seats): A centrist party, and a revival of the Old Republic party of the same name. Advocates of a return to the structure of the Old Republic as it existed in the High Republic and Republic Classic eras, before what they see as its distortion under Palpatine. The text of the Ruusan Reformations serves as their guiding charter. Led by Waltyr Valorum of Hosnian Prime.
Free Hyperlanes Party (center right, 24 seats): A classical liberal party, economically hypercapitalist and disdainful of government intervention in the market, and supportive of corporations. Socially libertarian. Led by Udo Mopot of Giju.
Tumblr media
THE MOTHMA BLOC
Galactic Unity Party (far right, 151 seats): A far right, traditionalist party which advocates for ultraconservative social policies and an immediate cessation of hostilities against the Imperial remnants, arguing that the war was won when the Core was liberated. Often accused of Imperial sympathies and of being a continuation of the Galactic Integralist Party, the state party under the Empire; several GIP Senators have reentered politics under the GUP banner. Led by Leida Mothma of Chandrila, the daughter of former Chancellor Mon Mothma, who does not share her mother's politics.
Core Alliance (right, 10 seats): A coalition of wealthy and influential Core worlds, whose priority is securing and expanding the privileges traditionally afforded them. Led by Jonas Piven of Alsakan.
Anti-Jedi Party (far right, 3 seats): One of the few parties to exist in its current form since the time of the Old Republic. Far right and conspiratorial, it gained some popularity after the Clone Wars due to a conspiracy theory spread by its leader about Emperor Sheev Palpatine being a secret Jedi who had worked with the Jedi Council to seize power, only to then betray his fellow Jedi in order to consolidate power around himself. Currently opposes the nascent New Jedi Order and has taken credit for Luke Skywalker having declined to base it on Coruscant. led by Alyx J'onzz of Tekaris.

This afternoon at 1:30pm pacific: Tales From the Rambler Episode 4!!!
DM'd by Bill @gabajoofs, starring Dot @radiofreederry as Janica Halcyon, Sebastian @lakemojave as Bhuri'Hssyngig, Jordan @brucebocchi as Ced Saverem, Heather @chansaw as Val Griv'ir, and Julia @thottacelli as Caitvuna Conu!
Art by @bijillion, recap under the cut! See y'all then!

THE STORY SO FAR: It has been years since the end of the Galactic Civil War. The New Republic struggles to rebuild the galaxy after decades of Imperial rule, locked in a cold war with the remnant Pentastar Alignment. All the while, in the dark corners of the galaxy, organized crime groups compete with each other to gain power in the galactic underworld after the collapse of the Hutt Cartel. Now, the crew of the transport ship the Rambler have been thrust into this gritty, cutthroat world...
LAST TIME: After the crew of the Rambler arrived at Naboo, they delivered Cloud City's Baron Administrator to their Republic countact and spent some time shopping for upgrades to their weapons while Janica tinkered with the ship's hyperdrive. Eventually, Bhuri's desire to go fishing spiraled into a heated battle with an Opee Sea Killer which the whole crew got dragged into. After heroically killing the beast, the crew left its rotting corpse for the locals to clean up before blasting back into hyperspace, en route to Corellia. Landing at Halcyon Transport Solutions headquarters, Ced recruited the Mon Cal droidsmith Qorol to help him fix and reprogram the HK droid the crew defeated on Hoth, before the crew attended a military parade, where Garm Bel Iblis, Wedge Antilles, and an unknown Jedi gave speeches. After the parade was over, the crew approached the Jedi, before a shot rang out, and the Jedi was suddenly clutching his shoulder...

I really have to compliment you on the Leia only knows democracy as a theoretical idea? in actual practice she has no clue the in and outs as a lived thing, cause all her organizations were so much more fluid and always in crisis and on fire. So her having an arc where she and allies try and manage something should be fun. I imagine Bail consort to a Queen is a no go, as is Padme, only one I can think of is Garm bel iblis the corelian senator who was a rebel general. course a rando is fun too.
Thanks. I know I've read stuff (fic mostly) that suggests that Leia was elected to her Senate seat, but I've always looked at Alderaan and it having consecutive royal family members as "elected" officials in the Senate and sort of side-eyed that claim. I think it fits with Leia's character in a lot of ways that she believes in theoretical democracy, but is waaaaaaay comfortable inheriting her ruler-ship of Alderaan because her experience with democracy has really always been just that. Theoretical.
Revealing elections results would sadly be Spoilers, but I'm enjoying seeing the speculation.

REPUTATION | 4. "don't blame me"
Tumblr media
[Excerpt:]
Quinlan Vos wore a perpetual smirk, but as he glanced over at his old friend, Obi-Wan Kenobi, he sounded sincere as he replied, “Anytime.” Then he teased, “So what’s the Duchess of Mandalore doing on 5th Avenue with a guy like you?” He glanced up in the rear view mirror where Satine Kryze had pulled on her seat belt and made eye contact with him.
“Hey Quin,” she breathed. “Haven’t seen you in a long time.”
“Always a pleasure,” he replied with a wink. “You okay back there?”
She nodded, brushing her matted hair back from her face and looked anxious as she glanced around from window to window, observing the vehicles that traveled around them and the sights of the New York City streets.
“I’ve been better, but I’m not a complainer,” Satine answered.
“What are you doin’ with this guy? You’ve been breaking hearts a long time. Last I heard, you were dating that senator, the older one with the ‘stache,” Quin mused as he grinned to himself while he drove, recalling the news coverage of Satine Kryze entertaining Garm Bel Iblis, a dashing salt-and-pepper haired political figure from a small European country. “What happened? Did you realize you didn’t like eating dinner with the seniors?”
In the backseat, Satine grimaced. Quinlan’s needling was a worthy distraction for her nerves, though, and she shot him a glance as she reassured him, “He’s not that old! And Garm was just a plaything. We had fun for a couple weeks. There was really nothing more there.”
Obi-Wan glanced back at her and remarked, “He’s twenty years older than you, Satine.”
“And your latest conquest was, what? Fifteen years younger than you?” Satine raised an eyebrow and smirked.
He narrowed his eyes at her playfully and made a face.

Chapter 5/track 4 is up.

Ahsoka Ep 1 & 2 Spoilers under the cut
Get ready to read my ramblings that make zero sense because I'm still reeling
So, first things first NO THRAWN MAKES ME SO SAD 😭😭
In my heart I knew that we weren't going to get to see him yet but not being able to see him upsets me greatly.
So onto the actual content of the episode:
The Rebels fan in my heart was so so so happy when we saw Hera and Sabine interacting. I love them so much. As well as Chopper my beloved.
Morgan is literally just every Thrawn Girly™️ "Thrawn is calling to me" girl SAME now go find my MANS PLEASE.
Shin and Baylon are fucking sick, I love them. The first two episodes are a really good set up for what's to come.
Huyang roasting Sabine's force sensitivity sent me.
While I'm still not sold on Sabine being force sensitive I'm keeping an open mind to see where it goes.
The Loth Cats as well are the cutest.
As soon as they mentioned Corelia I was really hoping we would get a mention of Garm Bel Iblis but I know that's just because I just finished reading the Heir trilogy so my little brain is looking for any and all legends references I can find.
Like if they mention Bilbringi, Sluis Van, the Katana fleet, Wayland, or anything like that I'm gonna scream (even though I know we won't because so far nothing mentioned has been legends adjacent)
Also part of me is maybe wondering if Baylon Skoll is the stand in for C'baoth 🤔🤔
Overall, I really enjoyed it, but would have enjoyed it more if Thrawn was there.
Either way it was an amazing set of episodes and now I enter Waiting Mode™️ for the next week.

Star Wars for the fandom asks?
Character I first fell in love with:
So I first saw Star Wars at such a young age that I don't remember the first time I watched it. My parents had at one time a VHS home video made of various old photographs intended to help preserve them in case something happened (the photographs have since been digitized, I don't know if the VHS was too) but in the background you can here tiny little me watching Star Wars and quoting my favorite parts already.
I remember adoring Luke and Leia and Han already when I was four? Five? I dunno, young. So I'll go with all three of them. Cannot pick a fav beyond that.
Character I never expected to love as much as I do now:
Anakin Skywalker. Don't get me wrong, Vader was cool in a badass villain way, but Anakin turned out to be a bit of a dork and I love that about him. The movies didn't do a great job of selling me on the character, but the extended universe - particularly the Clone Wars animated series - really fleshed him out and made him into someone I actually enjoy.
Character everyone loves but I don’t:
Garm Bel Iblis from Legends. He's an interesting character and it is generally a good thing when he shows up, but I never quite got over the fact that he misread Mon Mothma's character so badly he expected her to name herself Empress. He basically had a disagreement with her right after Alderaan blew up after which he essentially took his toys (his own rebel sect) and went home (to fight the Empire separately from the main rebellion) and refused to show up for years after the Rebellion founded the New Republic because he sincerely thought Mon Mothma was that much of a power hungry asshole.
Mon Mothma.
Just... let that sink in for a bit.
Character I love but everyone else hates:
Callista Masana (later Callista Ming). I don't know that she's exactly hated, but she's a love interest for Luke who wasn't Mara Jade so... you know... While I don't like her as a love interest for Luke - he was so awkward with her, the poor arospec farm-boy - I do like her overall character arcs and I do feel like her inability to connect to the light side of the force is wasted as a storyline when she popped back up after the loosely connected trilogy she first showed up in.
Her method of returning to life from death caused her ability to touch the Force to become so warped that she could only utilize the Dark Side from that point forward. Doesn't that sound fascinating? Way more fascinating than being absorbed by a dark side entity who impersonated her to screw with her ex boyfriend Luke Skywalker. Am I right???
Character I used to love but don’t any longer:
Jacen Solo. I love his early years in Legends but once he turned to the dark side I kinda burned out on him real quick. A lot of my issues with Ben Solo/Kylo Ren is that he's basically Jacen Solo minus any of Jacen's redeeming qualities.
Character I would kiss:
No kissing but I would happily accept platonic cuddles from Obi-Wan. Goodness knows he needs them.
Character I want to slap:
Qui-Gon Jinn. So much would have been averted if he hadn't been a bit of a self centered asshole. As poorly as he handles things with Obi-Wan in the movie? He's so much worse in the books.
A pairing I love:
Finn/Poe - it's so cute and it was hilarious to me how much the actors embraced the ship too.
A pairing I hate:
Rey/Kylo Ren - it's so creepy, creepy, creepy.
