last thoughts of the night after a long day of discussing everything in every game i've ever played, but in the canon game timeline for KOTFE/ET...Eight never found his "answer" for understanding others by fighting for their ideals. in fact, it did the exact opposite. it didn't let others understand him, and he learned nothing about living while his doing so alienated others from him even more. this was the situation Keeper wanted to free him from-- the curse of being nothing but a weapon, but ironically, all it did was push him into being that very thing.

I get to rewrite the traitor arc to smooth things over between the Rishi trio a bit, but it's definitely a case of too little, too late. It's fortunate that Eight is somewhat proud of being a peerless weapon, because anyone else would've snapped in two from the being abandoned by everyone. He still chooses to fight for them, because without his purpose, his current reasons to believe in others and the faith that one day he'll find what he's looking for, he has no reason to live.

#swtor #oc: orradiz #kotfe/et au #theron is the first/only one to express conflicting feelings towards what happened as the one with outstanding morals #but he knows they're neither close nor what they could've been. and no one feels greater shame at having someone else bleed for you than hi #he's the kind of guy who would pick fighting his own battles any day but this is by far too much for him #lana also feels regret very late and while she can't call her decisions mistakes bc of her position #as a *friend* she is deeply mortified by it. she has to accept it and says what's done is done #but a part of her definitely took a hard hit that she could be as callous as those siths she once prided as not being #and eight. eight will never falter in his path. even if it makes him unhappy. even if it leaves him alone. he knows no other way forward.#even if they turn their backs on him he will fight as he always has for their sake.#ok goodnight i've said way too much bullshit these 24 hours lol #quit talking about your wip and finish it already crowd boos
