Combo of the concept arts for the Jedi: Survivor fic "do you taste my pain in this bloodstained place" written by me, @dream-of-tanalorr, and @spyscrapper !

Now that they've both mostly appeared I figured I should put them in the same frame, hehe!

Alt version below:

‘Hello Merrin, did you miss me?

Drawing more AU Inquistor Cal…actually planning a bit of a narrative in which Cal becomes an inquisitor after his first brush with Vader after FO.

Merrin ends up captured and eventually manages to free Cal from the heavy mind control he’s under.

Anyway I’ll write it at some point, maybe draw 😂 (probs will be some nsfw too) . I also thought it would be amusing to name him the Ninth Brother for reasons.

I’m still learning a lot about SW lore because FO and Surivor have been my main exposure to it recently along with Mandalorian.

Jason Campbell is struggling to believe what happened on the morning of April 2nd, when he reluctantly called 9-1-1 to report that his brother, Peter Campbell was in medical distress. His brother later died.

“If I wanted him to die, I would have left him doing what he was doing,” said Campbell, visibly upset while speaking about his decision to call 9-1-1.

It was four in the morning when police arrived at the apartment building on Kennedy Road near Queen Street in Brampton, Ont., to find the 34-year-old Brampton man inside the ninth-floor apartment where he lived with his brother and his nephews. [...]

Jason was concerned if he called police again, it could end badly. “I was worried they might do something that was going to hurt him more than he had already hurt himself.”

Faced with no other option, he decided to call 9-1-1 but asked specifically for paramedics. “After we told them we only wanted an ambulance, they forced us to have police at the incident due to the Mental Health Act,” Peter said. [...]

☄. *. ⋆ VERSES & TIMELINE

All verses will be tagged as such, unless it takes place in the main verse (and so long as I don't forget lol). If you would like a thread within a certain verse or point in the timeline, please let me know!

MAIN. This will take place within the Jedi Survivor game, during the events of the game or post-game. The year is 9 BBY. Cal is 23 years old, or 23+ if post-game.

CLONE WARS, YOUNG!CAL KESTIS. This will take place during the Clone Wars, when Cal is a Jedi Padawan under the guidance of Master Jaro Tapal. Cal will be 12-13 years old.

INQUISITOR (ELEVENTH BROTHER). DEAD DOVE WARNING. Cal was captured by Second Sister, formerly known as Trilla Suduri, along with the holocron (during Jedi Fallen Order). He was taken into the Fortress Inquisitorious on Nur and was made subject to reconditioning. He goes by only his title, 'The Eleventh Brother,' and hardly goes by his birth name. He has begrudgingly embraced the dark side, holding resentment towards the Empire for stripping him of his freedom. He's emotionless and arguably only the shell of the man he once was. Unless... Someone could break through that barrier? Deep down inside, maybe the remnants of the Jedi Cal was still lurks.

GRAND INQUISITOR AND SITH APPRENTICE. DEAD DOVE WARNING.

HEAVILY AFFLILIATED WITH @skysaunter — Cal quit the Braccan Scrap Guild--not by choice, as his hand was forced by a visit from the Second and Ninth Sister--then joined the Mantis Crew and the Rebellion. He was taken in after serving as a distraction to ensure that his friends would escape to deep space. His abilities had captured the attention of Lord Vader. Under Vader, he was trained to hone his skills not only in the Force, but more so in the dark side; bending and manipulating the Force to his will, becoming one of Vader's Sith Apprentices (the other being Luke Skywalker). Known for his extreme efficiency and speed in completing tasks, Cal was promoted from his title of the Eleventh Brother to the Grand Inquisitor. The Grand Inquisitor, Sith Apprentice, Empire's Mutt, Imperial Hell Hound, Icarus, and Hades are a few of the many names of which he is referenced as. He is ruthless, sadistic, and acts with no remorse. Deep inside, he is self aware that what he is doing is wrong. This in itself has driven him to wear his helmet at all times. He doesn't want his face to be the last thing his victims see. Suffering from loneliness and depression, due to the stigma around the Inquisitorious and the fears of the general public, he sought companionship in all the wrong places: in one night stands, to the point of becoming addicted to sex. When he realized that this was getting in the way of his performances in missions, he cut himself off from the women he was seeing. He was hurt by a woman he was romantically involved with, after being used and told he wasn't enough, and this made him close himself off emotionally from others. He's far more reserved than he was, compared to when Vader first found him as an eighteen year old boy.

GOOD ENDING (JEDI MASTER), wherein the Jedi Order never fell. Palpatine's plot had been exposed by Jedi Knight-turned-Master Anakin Skywalker, with the assistance of Master Mace Windu.

With Master Anakin Skywalker at the forefront, and new member of the Jedi High Council, the Order slowly embraced attachments as a part of life, and a means of testing one's emotions and emotional maturity as a Jedi. Additionally, the balance between the Light and Dark sides of the Force became more openly accepted as it is a testament to a Jedi's emotional restraint.

Cal Kestis continued his training under Master Jaro Tapal and eventually became a Jedi Master, and soon after was a member of the High Council. Known to be snarky and outspoken, Cal often faces criticism among the High Council members for his usage of strong language and his brazen attitude. Yet his heart is soft, the freckled Jedi has the patience of a saint when it comes to teaching others.

GREY'S ANATOMY. Grey's Anatomy verse where Cal (Doctor Kestis) is a pediatric surgeon (meaning he is trained to surgically operate on infants, children, and young adults). He invests his heart and soul into his work and genuinely wants to help his patients have a better chance at life. So much so that he gets depressed if he loses a patient and the feeling never goes away, even if he's years into the practice. He's got a big heart and it shows.

Alternatively, in an alternate reality, Cardiothoracic Surgeon. He'd make dumb heart puns, especially on Valentine's Day, when it's appropriate and won't offend his patients.

DUNE (FILMS). Cal Harkonnen is the adoptive son of Vladimir Harkonnen and a Ginaz Swordmaster under the House Harkonnen. He is around the same age as Paul Atreides. Rivals with his cousin, Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen, Cal would be constantly under pressure to do always do better than the efforts that which he already contributes by Vladimir, while Feyd-Rautha would see Cal as a threat to securing the throne. Although Cal has a more compassionate nature compared to his cousin, he would have been pushed by Vladimir to be a better swordsman than Feyd-Rautha to the point of collapse while training.

Cal has expressed empathy for the Fremen, agreeing with House Atreides that it is wrong to exploit the resources of a planet that doesn't belong to them, and also misguided are the beliefs House Harkonnen holds against the Fremen. This angered Vladimir and, while out on spice retrieval, Cal was abandoned in the sands of Arrakis upon orders of his adoptive father. Much like Paul, Cal watched seitch training videos on the Fremen and their way of life. In vengeance, Cal summoned a Shai-Hulud to engulf the Harvester that he was sent on.

Found by the Fundamentalist Fremen in the South, Cal expressed that he wanted no harm and instead wished to join the Fremen. After successfully completing the ritualized combat for initiation, killing a Fremen man, Cal adopted the ways of the Desert, completely fascinated by the culture and always willing to learn more. He learned how to speak Chakobsa, became fluent in it, and assisted the Fremen with their onslaughts against foreign threats.

With the Bene Gesserit seeking influence across the galaxy, especially among the Great Houses, the witches would see Cal as a potential means of leverage. Recognizing his potential before he was violently disowned by House Harkonnen, the Bene Gesserit sent one of their sisters to Cal to fulfill the witches' agenda. The sister, having been deeply hurt by House Harkonnen in the past with her family members consisting of Harkonnen's maidservants and consequently facing abuse and even homicide, wished to eliminate Cal. However, Cal's contrasting gentle nature compared to that of the Harkonnens, convinced her that he could be a valuable ally to the Bene Gesserit. This came from Cal's growing resentment towards his father, as he wished to have lived his life differently rather than to be trained as a warrior and having sentiments of a pacifist. The Bene Gesserit sister agreed and taught Cal how to speak with the Voice. This could be especially useful to Cal during combat.

DUNE (NOVELIZATION). (Only stating the nuanced differences, all else applies.)

AFFILIATED WITH @impercre ; thank you for helping me with this! — As a member of one of the lesser branches of House Harkonnen, the Baron Vladimir Harkonnon adopted Cal Harkonnen to ensure that the throne stays under his name. Cal's biological mother is a Bene Gesserit, but this is unbeknowndst to the Baron. Unlike in the films version of this verse, Cal has a good relationship with Feyd-Rautha and Glossu Rabban, his cousins. Though they were pitted against each other since they were still young, Cal always made sure to check up on them after their sparring sessions. However, much like the films version of this verse, Cal was still abandoned in Arrakis due to the Baron's dislike towards Cal's pacifist nature and shared sentiment with House Atreides.

HISTORICAL/VAMPIRE. Cal Kestis was born in the year 1755 in New York. He fought with the American Revolution as a patriot, in the Civil War as a Union soldier, WWI, WWII. He's watched America grow as a nation. Fought for equality time and time again. He wouldn't like talking about history if asked, but every now and then he'd have stories to tell. About the friends he made along the way. About the people he loves and had to leave. How every year he's reminded to cherish those in his life before they are gone.

Cal studied medicine when he first turned 18. He earned his Doctor of Medicine Degree and switched between serving as a medic and a soldier during conflicts. He hasn't aged since he physically turned 23. Vampires in this universe each have their own unique abilities; Cal himself was gifted with telekenetic abilities, psychometry (the ability to see the history tied to objects upon contact), and charismatic control. He also has enhanced speed, enhanced agility, enhanced strength. He can protrude and retract his fangs by will. He is unaffected by sunlight, garlic, and can only be killed if dismembered and thrown into fire (please don't kill my muse).

He's also had to change/rotate names again and again to avoid suspicion that he's been alive for almost three hundred years.

TANGLED. Instead of being found by the Mantis Crew, Cal left the Braccan Scrap Guild after being discovered by Hondo Ohnaka. No longer being used for his then small stature, his objective changed to Ohnaka's exploitation of his abilities in the Force and his experience in combat through the Clone Wars. Believing that he had found a place in the Galaxy (to which he was terribly mistaken), Cal worked under the false pretenses that what he was doing would be appreciated and his love would be reciprocated. Only when he was a little older than thirteen and completely jaded by the demanding and risky missions Ohnaka sent him on, did he realize that he was being used and eventually left the Ohnaka Gang.

He operates under the alias 'Flynn Rider,' inspired by the tales of a fictional man; swashbuckling rogue, richest man alive, not bad with the ladies. Flynnagan Rider, the name of the said character, had enough money to do everything he wanted to do, and could go anywhere he wanted to go. For a thirteen-year-old, stripped of his home, friends, Master, and familiarity of what life was like in the Jedi Order, 'Flynn Rider' was a mask that Cal Kestis wore not only to evade recognition, but also to cope with the reality he woke up to Post Order 66.

HOLLYWOOD (MODERN). Cal, like all characters in the SW universe, are all actors on a set, with the makeup, special effects, and costumes. Cal has learned martial arts in his spare time and proper swordfighting techniques to sell the story on screen. He is serious when the time calls for it but when a cut is called for, or when the cameras stop rolling, he is an absolute silly goose.

M.ARVEL. TBA.

TOKYO DRIFT. TBA.

TOKYO GHOUL. TBA. ME BEFORE YOU. TW // suicide, injurry. After a snowboarding accident involving an avalanche, Cal Kestis, the prized heir to his father's luxury sports car manfacturing business, became paralyzed from the neck down. As a quadripilegic, Cal became miserable, missing his life prior which revolved around dangerous sports and chasing after the adrenaline rush. After he voiced his wishes to go to Dignitas in Switzerland for assisted suicide, his parents hired a carer to hopefully change his mind.

Bears Sweep Bruins on the Road

Max Handron Hits Two More Home Runs in Another Win

LOS ANGELES – The Bear will not quit, the Bear will not die.  For the third straight day the Golden Bears found a way to win against UCLA and got a rare sweep on the road.  Cal hit four more home runs today, two from Max Handron, and held on to win 9-8 at Jackie Robinson Stadium. Cal (21-23, 9-15 Pac-12) finished the afternoon scoring nine runs on 12 hits. The Bears were particularly strong in two out situations where they drove in five of their nine runs. Handron clubbed two more home runs to give him four for the series. Joining Handron with home runs were Caleb Lomavita and Rodney Green Jr. Cal also got doubles from Peyton Schulze and Nathan Manning.

UCLA (24-19-1, 10-12-1 Pac-12) made the Bears earn it. Trailing three runs in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bruins loaded the bases with no outs. Daylen Reyes singled up the middle to drive in two, part of his three-hit performance. Tucker Bougie closed it out, getting Darius Perry to strike out with the tying run on third. The Bruins threw everything they could at their big Bear brothers from the Bay, as three other UCLA players had multiple hits on the day. Jack Holman and Duce Gourson also had three hits each. Holman hit his third home run of the series and 11th of the year in the bottom of the fifth that briefly gave the Bruins the lead. Unlike the previous two contests, when Cal needed just two pitchers in each contest to get the win, the Bears used six pitchers to complete the sweep. Chris Stamos served as the opener and allowed a run on two hits in his first action since April 2. Daniel Colwell (2-3) got the win, throwing an inning in relief against his former team. Austin Turkington tossed a scoreless frame. Robert Aivazian was brilliant for two innings but struggled in the ninth. Bougie earned the save after striking out the side, two coming with the bases loaded.

For the third-straight game, the Bears scored first. Schule knocked in the Bears' first three runs, two in the first and one in the third on an RBI double to center. He wrapped up his weekend going 3-for-5. UCLA responded by scoring a run in the first and fourth, and briefly took the lead in the fifth on the three-run home run from Holman that scored Gourson and Darius Perry. Cal responded by scoring three in the sixth thanks to back-to-back home runs from Handron and Lomavita. Handron added a two-run blast in the eighth to give the Bears a 9-5 cushion heading into the bottom of the eighth. For the series, Handron went 6-for-16 with four runs scored, four home runs, and eight driven in.

Jedi Survivor spoilers

Finished the game. And I don’t know how I feel about the ending. It feels very meh. Like it should have been the 2nd game in a trilogy and knowing that Respawn wanted to do three games just makes me feel that even more.

It felt very Rey at the end of Rise of Skywalker, except worst because in Rey’s case, it worked because everyone was pushing Jedi/darkside stuff on Rey and she was just pulled along for the ride, versus Cal being conflicted and having no true resolution and stuck with his conflicting feels and maybe that’s the point? That the Jedi are dead and we all make our own path now, but I feel like that’s such a cop-out. Like, the Jedi were always a philosophy along side a people and as long as anyone wanting to do good in the galaxy does good, they follow the philosophy, you don’t have the powers to do it. Idk, maybe I read too much meta on this stuff that it feels a bit hollow for me.

But I knew Bode was going to die, but I was still so sad about it. He just wanted to be a good dad and failed along the way. He’s a good example of why attachment is bad and love is good and when you get too attached to something, the darkside slips in all insidious and what not. So great job to Respawn for their wonderful characterization of Bode!! Kudos for understanding that assignment and getting it very very right!!

Though I am a bit disappointed with the overall lack of Empire as an enemy in the game, despite it being the overall motivation for a lot of background plot. Like, I was hoping an Inquisitor would show up again, instead of like in the beginning and the surprise resurrection of Ninth sister. I’m actually really surprised they didn’t go for Fifth brother, considering that his death wasn’t explicit in Battle Scars and that Ninth sister seemed very much dead in Fallen Order. For a moment there, I almost thought Bode was Fifth brother, before I remembered that wasn’t possible because Fifth brother wasn’t human.

But I just looked it up and it seemed that it couldn’t be possible to put him in the game because he was in Kenobi and then Rebels, so he was a busy guy. Oh well.

Anyway. Overall, Survivor is a solid 7/10 game. The story is iffy, but has it’s moments. The game play is SUPERB. The music and sound are good. The character development is great! The graphics are lovely. I only had one hard crash and a few minor things that clipped through one another, but it didn’t really detract from anything. Respawn did a great job and I had a really fun time playing it!

Now I just need to get the rest of the trophies. ;(

by Hermitori

Wilbur scoffs, “What you did isn’t resistance, there is no rebellion you were just lashing out.” Tommy glares at Wilbur, “Yeah that’s the next best thing. What else am I supposed to do?” Wilbur finally raises his voice, “You’re supposed to listen to me and lay low! We are more likely to be destroyed by the Empire than most. So why take these risks?” Tommy’s anger is rising, he doesn’t understand how Wilbur can pretend that they can live this way under the Empire forever, “How can you stand to see their flags fly? After everything!” Wilbur sighs, trying to keep his patience, “I just don’t look up.”

———

After Tommy’s true nature is exposed, the life that he and Wilbur built is thrown into chaos. Old allies and past family are their only hope to survive an unforgiving galaxy ruled by the Empire.

QUIET, THE WINTER HARBOR

dealer!harry x jacobs!reader

(MASTERLIST) (EUPHORIA MASTERLIST)

A/N: harrison and rose are harry and y/n's name in lexi's play! also rue narrating in italics

part one of lexi’s play

-

Now, Nate didn't know what happened with Cassie and Maddy because when he exercises he puts his phone on silent.

The irony was Nate woke up that morning feeling fantastic. Because after an 18-year-dick-swinging contest with his dad...Nate had finally won.

His mom seemed to be handling it well, his sister and brother on the other hand...not so much.

Y/N was sat next to Aaron glaring at her brother who just walked in the kitchen. Nate swiftly pulls out the chair next to Y/N's and sits down next to her.

"Fuck is she so happy about?"

The three siblings stared at their mother who was smoking, drinking and cooking at the same time. With a scoff the Jacobs girl stands up from her chair and leaves the kitchen, going upstairs.

-

It wasn't the 38 missed called from Cassie that concerned him. It was the fact that there were zero calls from Maddy.

Part of the reason Nate loved Maddy as much as he did is because she was loyal. But it's also what scared the living shit out of him. If anyone crossed her she'd bury them.

And he had now really fucking crossed her.

There was no doubt in Nate's mind what Maddy was about to do.

"You know when a kid shoots up a school and they go to interview the parents, and the parents are like 'We had no idea. He seemed, like, totally normal.' And everyone watching is like 'You're a fucking idiot.' That's how I feel with Cassie." Maddy says on the phone with Kat and Y/N.

"Look, we never trusted her." Kat speaks making Maddy furrow her brows.

"What? Why?"

"Because she seems like the kind of person who would fuck your boyfriend." Y/N replies as Maddy sighs.

"I think I actually wanna murder her." The Perez girl tells her friends who agree.

"I get it." Kat says understanding what situation her friend was in.

"Yeah you should." Y/N murmurs.

"No, like actually plan a murder and carry it out." Maddy shares making Y/N hum in agreement.

"I get it." Kat says once agian.

"Like a grisly murder. One that shocks the nation."

"I think that's more than understandable." Kat sighs before speaking up. "What about Nate?"

"I have a few ideas."

You see after Y/N left the kitchen that one morning she packed a bag and left her house. She hated how Nate and her mom were acting like nothing happened.

Nate had wanted to tell her countless times about their father and Jules so she could be on his side. But Cal had begged him not to say anything to her about it because he knew she would freak out.

Growing up he hated the way his father and sister were close. They had a natural bond, not forced like his and Nate’s.

She grew up normal not fucked up like he was.

-

"To the rushing water, speak: I am."

Everyone in the crowd watched Lexi blow powder off a book and collect a few pill bottles from a jackets pocket.

Soon she walks out of the stage.

“I knew Jade had been doing drugs, but it wasn’t until that one day at her dad's memorial, that I realized they were a greater comfort than I ever could be. Maybe that's a silly observation but I was only thirteen."

"It was the summer before I started ninth grade....back when we thought we'd all be friends forever."

Suddenly the lights go off and a drum starts to be heard.

"Move. Move. Move."

Y/N quickly dodges everyone backstage to change into a white dress, a dress that she was wearing in her freshman yearbook photo.

Soon she gets called onstage by Bobbi who was holding a clipboard looking slightly stressed. With a nod of her head she hurriedly goes to sit on the chair that was set onstage.

"There were six of us.

There was me, Grace.

My sister, Hallie.

Her best friend, Marta.

Marta's best friend, Rose.

Rose's best friend, Luna.

And my best friend, Jade."

Harry and Maddy look at each other dumbfounded as the drums start to play again. Shortly all the people working on the play begin to trail in including Lexi.

"And this is life. Not everyones life...but our life!" Lexi excitedly shouts as her head pops out of the letter O.

Everybody in the audience stays silent until a few claps were heard making one of the theater kids on stage drop a letter. Swiftly Lexi hurries off the stage heading backstage.

Maddy furrows her brows as she looks at the scene in front of her.

"Wait, is this fucking play about us?" Maddy questions making both Kat and Harry exchange worried looks.

-

"Okay this might kinda be, a weird and embarrassing thing to admit, but I think the most defining moment of my adolescence was when my sister went through puberty."

In the corner of Harry's eye he sees his girlfriend crouching down as she make her way to him. Quickly she slips into the empty seat that was in between Maddy and Harry.

The dealer gives her a kiss on the cheek before wrapping his arm around her shoulder bringing her to his chest.

"Who's playing you?" Harry whispers into Y/N's ear making her shrug.

"This sophomore."

With a nod of his head he goes back paying attention to the play in front of him.

"Uck, I look disgusting."

"Hey Hallie I'm in the middle of something." Lexi tells her sister's character who just ignores her.

"It's just this dress is so not flattering." Hallie says as she spins around.

"Hallie, I'm kind of putting on a play right now." Lexi slightly laughs.

"What?"

"Like there's an entire audience waiting for me to continue talking." Lexi announces.

"Where?" Hallie questions making the audience burst out laughing.

"Right here." Lexi whispers pointing at the people sitting down making Hallie notice them.

"Oh! Hi, wow." Hallie chuckles before waving and throwing kisses to the audience. Her actions made Harry and Y/N laugh loudly catching Cassie's attention who was in a couple of rows behind them.

The blonde glares at the back of Y/N's head as she continues to giggle.

"Whatever. The point is I couldn't wait to go through puberty—" Lexi gets cut off by the bedroom door slamming open.

"Wow, wow, wow!"

Everyone begins to laugh loudly at Ethan dressed like Cassie and Lexi's mother.

"Look at you!" The mother praises Hallie who quickly gets shy.

"I feel like a big baby." Hallie pouts.

"Hallie. I've been on this planet for 38 goddamn years, and I have never seen a baby with knockers like yours."

"Mom, that was like the grossest thing I've ever heard you say." Hallie groans in disgust.

-

Y/N feels Harry nudge her shoulder making her look up from her locker to see Cassie and her brother walking down the hallway together. Maddy who was next to her gives her a look.

As the blonde makes her way down the hall she felt someone glaring at her. She turned her head thinking it was Maddy, but instead it was Y/N glaring at her.

Swiftly she darts her eyes anywhere but the Jacobs girl, slightly scared.

"Well, she certainly looks the part." Maddy shakes her head making Y/N and Kat laugh.

-

"Okay, okay I'm not running a brothel here. All right girls? Time for bed. Good night, sugar pops." Suze's character bids goodnight and turns off the lights.

Once the door closes Hallie speaks up.

"Marta."

"Yeah?"

"You can sleep in my bed if you want."

Marta gets up from the bed that was made for her and goes in Hallie's bed.

"My parents used to fight all the time, too, so I get it." Hallie tells Marta who begins to cry. "You can stay here as long as you want." She reassures her best friend.

Marta continues to cry making Hallie snuggle into her for comfort.

Y/N slightly turns her head to see Cassie looking down at the floor with tears in her eyes. In a hurry Cassie rushes out of the auditorium making Maddy turn around to see her pushing the door open.

-

"Open the fucking door Cassie. Open the door and tell me it was worth it. You owe me that." Maddy tells Cassie who locked herself in the bathroom.

Soon the doorknob starts rattling making the blonde flinch and begin crying.

"Open the fucking door Cassie!" Maddy begs the girl. "What kind of fucking friend are you? What the fuck?" She cries.

Cassie just stays silent as she leans back into the door.

"This isn't about Nate. This is about you and me, and our friendship, and if you wanna throw it away, then fine. Cause I don't want to be fucking friends with you." Maddy curses making Y/N grab her arm softly.

"Come on Mads. Let's go." Y/N whispers as Maddy leans her forehead against the door crying.

"I'm just sick of it. I'm sick of it. He put me through hell and now he's with my best fucking friend. Like what the fuck?" Maddy sobs.

"It's fucked up." Kat mumbles agreeing with her friend.

"When is it gonna end?"

Soon Maddy begins to rattle the doorknob once again wanting to face Cassie

"Open the fucking door Cassie! Open the fucking door!" Maddy cries as she hits the door over and over.

"She's not going to open it. Let's just go—"

"Open the door!" Maddy ignores Kat and continues to bang on the door.

"Maddy let's go." Y/N says softly.

"You're a fucking coward. You're a fucking coward, and I would've never done this to you. I would've never done this to you."

-

Right after Cassie gets back into her seat another scene from the play starts. For comfort Nate grabs her hand making her give him a small smile.

"Hallie had many interests in guys but this specific guy on the football team sophomore year caught her attention. He was sweet, caring, British and tall."

Y/N furrows her brows as she slowly turns her head to look at Harry who looked nervous.

"Hallie stop!" Harrison laughs as Hallie tickled his neck. They were both sat in the cafeteria with books surrounding them.

The blonde was about to connect their lips but a phone ringing stops her. In a hurry Harrison jumps up and grabs the phone that was in his flannel pocket.

Quickly the blonde stops him connecting their lips.

Y/N whimpers standing up quickly from her seat dropping Harry's arm that was in her lap. Everyone in the audience turned to look at the Jacobs girl who had tears streaming down her face.

Harry tries to follow after his girlfriend but is stopped by Maddy shoving him back into the seat.

"Stay here. We are watching the rest." Kat scoffs glaring at Harry sat next to her.

Lexi pops her head out to the audience to see Y/N running out with Maddy following her. With a frown the younger Howard sibling pulls out her phone.

“Look Hallie I don’t like you like that. I’m dating Rose!" Harrison tells Hallie who tries to kiss him once again.

“What no? You love me!” Hallie cries grabbing onto him but is just shrugged off. "Please Harrison!" She begs the boy.

“No! I don't like you like that. Now please leave me alone.” Harrison shakes his head before walking out of the empty cafeteria leaving Hallie sobbing.

-

"Do you think he cheated? I mean he had to cheat right?" Y/N asks Maddy who was wiping her tear stained cheeks with a paper towel.

"I don't think Harry would cheat. He loves you too much." Maddy softly whispers continuing to wipe her best friends skin that was stained with mascara.

It was silent after that, only Y/N's sniffles were heard.

"Well he didn't cheat! But Cassie tried to get him too." Kat says as she throws the bathroom door open.

"Seriously what the fuck is wrong with her." Maddy curses as she roughly throws the paper towel in the trash. "She's such a cunt!" She groans.

Suddenly multiple knocks on the bathroom door were heard.

"It's Harry!"

"Suck a dick!" Maddy shouts making Kat laugh into her hand trying to silence her giggles.

"Y/N baby. Can we please talk? I'll explain everything." Harry begs.

-

Harry and Cassie's "relationship" wasn't even a relationship. But Cassie thought otherwise.

They met when Cassie's father left. She filled the void with texting or calling Harry because he made her feel better. She really thought he was the one.

Yet once he met Y/N Jacobs everything changed.

Cassie started to get more obsessive with Harry once she found out he was in a relationship with Y/N.

She constantly sent him unauthorized nudes of her during school hours, flirted with him in front of his friends and the worse of all she told McKay about his and Y/N's private relationship which made Nate and him get into fight.

And him also almost get expelled.

"Why would you fucking do that!" Harry shouts at Cassie who looked scared. "I almost got fucking expelled, I can't get kicked out Cassie! If I do I go back to England!" He curses.

"I don't know what you mean—"

"Your dating McKay! He told Nate about me and Y/N. Who knows about us? Oh! You!" Harry cuts the blonde off who begins stuttering.

"Harry. I'm sorry but maybe this means we can finally be together." Cassie smiles as she tries to hug Harry.

"You are fucking insane." Harry scoffs before walking back inside the shop. Cassie was about to follow him but Ashtray glaring at her makes her stop and turn around.

-

"Are you fucking kidding me?" Y/N asks Harry who was sat on the sidewalk smoking a cigarette. He had just told her about his and Cassie's past which made her want to go inside and drag her out by her hair. "And she's with my brother now!" She laughs shaking her head baffled.

"I think she needs reality check." Harry says making Y/N nod.

"Let's go back inside. I'm cold." Y/N tells Harry making him stand up and shrug his flannel off his shoulders. Swiftly he slides it on her shoulders giving her a kiss on the head.

"I'm sorry for not telling you about Cassie earlier. I just didn't want to ruin your relationships with the girls." Harry full honestly tells her as tears well up in his eyes.

He felt like shit. He should've told her about Cassie's actions but he decided to stay quiet about it.

"It's fine H, now I know." Y/N smiles before she pecks his lips. As she pulls back his phone begins to ring making him pull it out of his back pocket.

"It's Fez." Harry tells Y/N who nods and turns around to give him his privacy but she soon turns around when she hears him curse under his breath. "Shit. Uh baby, I have to go. It's an emergency." He kisses her cheek.

"O-Okay. Is everything fine—“

"Yes everything's fine pet, I got to go. I'll pick you up when the play’s done. Text me."

Cal Kestis, Ninth Brother

Concept art for the Jedi: Survivor fic "do you taste my pain in this bloodstained place" written by me, @dream-of-tanalorr, and @spyscrapper !

Cal's wearing an Inquisitor uniform very similar to Trilla's, because he can have a Hot Inquisitor Summer, as a Treat-

Alt version below:

(Sith Eyes)

[crest-in-pieces]

Okay but... The Inquisitors...

There’s Second Sister... and Ninth Sister... How many are there!?! Are there Brother’s too? Like would Cal have become a ‘Brother Inquisitor’ Had he turned to the Dark Side!!? And on that same note! Darth Vader now knows there’s a Jedi that survived! Would he not try to hunt Cal Kestis down!?! Stop him from trying to ruin things for the empire. Like Cal is no Luke, but this boy still can F. Shit up like no other! And you know he’ll do his damnedest to foil the empires’ plans at each turn! So Would Vader really not send Inquisitor after Inquisitor after him!?! Or Try to dig up anything he possibly could to stop him!?!

Like all of this would make for awesome plot concepts in the next game!  All the while, Cal making it his life long goal to find and save as many Force Sensitive's as he possibly can.

Or like... Kinda the TLDR: Cal Kestis becomes like Peter Pan, and gets all the ‘Lost Boys’ (Force Sensitives) While ruining Vader’s (or Hook’s) plans to hunt him down, and always escaping his traps in clever ways. “I’LL GET YOU NEXT TIME CAL KESTIS!”

WIP folder meme :)

Thank you @isfjmel-phleg​ and @fictionadventurer​ for tagging me!! I don’t have everything in one place (it is a Huge mess at the moment) but here is a list of the main projects I’ve added notes to/thought extensively about over the past year:

ORIGINAL WORK/NOVELS (sadly most of them ARE untitled):

Project 1 (tentatively titled Garden of Dreams): about the kindness of strangers, finding joy again, the coming of spring

Project 2: a loose Snow Queen retelling in an original fairy tale fantasy world

Project 3: hero training academy in a post-war world where dragons and monsters are no longer the main threat; the kids who join the school must save the world by learning to take care of the earth and the people in it

Project 4: in an Southeast Asian-inspired country, a young girl from the countryside is forced into marrying the self-absorbed crown prince and decides to use the new power she has as the new queen to be kind and to do good

Project 5: a girl and her grandmother embark on a journey to defeat a returning evil

FILM/SHOW ADAPTATIONS:

Anne of the Island (miniseries)

Little Women, with more of an emphasis on the girls’ moral and character development: equal attention paid to all four sisters (in particular: Meg’s post-marriage joys and sorrows, Beth’s personality and her interactions with her sisters)

Mansfield Park, but you get more of Fanny’s perspective: things that she sees and observes (people’s behaviour and physical cues, nature, things that enchant her)--brief internal narration/monologues when she’s mulling over something beautiful or distressing, highlighting her social anxiety and shyness but also her emotional intelligence and the clarity of how she discerns right and wrong; we are Not making excuses for Mr. Crawford, OH and many things communicated visually (Fanny wears muted colours, whereas the other characters are dressed in brighter--sometimes even garishly bright--clothes)

THINGS I LIKE TO THINK ABOUT WHEN I DON’T HAVE ENOUGH ENERGY TO WORK ON ACTUAL PROJECTS

Star Wars sequel trilogy rewritten with All my bizarre ideas (including--please don’t laugh, this is a writing exercise I use for self-indulgence--friendship between Rose and Ben, Rey’s parents were part of the Resistance and were ordinary people fighting for what they believed in, Ben has a prodigal son storyline, Leia and Han are still together but they work on different bases, Finn is a storm trooper for MUCH longer and has killed as a storm trooper--when he returns undercover to start a storm trooper revolt he tells his old friends and colleagues that it isn’t too late to choose the right thing. There is No Chosen One, only ordinary people who choose to do the right thing (Rogue One style). Rey and Finn are both Force-sensitive;  the story is about: 1) identity and belonging (Rey/Finn/Poe/Rose/Ben all ache for love and acceptance in their character arcs, all of them find that. Also none of them die, thanks), 2) personal responsibility and agency (Finn’s decision to give up the life of a storm trooper, Rey deciding to fight for the Resistance not because of her parents’ choices but out of her own volition, Rose choosing to forgive Ben even though he plays a larger role in my version in Paige’s death). Everyone is guilty of sin (Finn’s actions while he was a storm trooper, Rose holds deep hatred towards the people responsible for her sister’s death, Ben’s reason for turning to the Dark Side involved murdering his twin--I don’t know much about the Thrawn trilogy but I thought it was interesting how there are multiple sets of twins in the Skywalker family. In my version, Ben is responsible for the death of his twin sister when they’re both very young) and learns the full weight of consequences and of the freedom that grace and forgiveness and love gives them. Also I really like the idea of Rey, Finn, and Ben fighting off Main Bad Guy together at the climax of the third movie. He’s defeated by Rey (an ordinary girl, no Skywalker or Palpatine legacy attached), Finn (one of his former lackeys, who has turned to the other side, and is training to become a Jedi), and Ben (his former apprentice, who has returned to the side of light). Main theme: choosing love over hatred, kindness over cruelty, forgiveness over revenge

Rogue One modern AU where Cassian works at a bakery with his friend Kay. Jyn runs a book shop during the day and offers her services as a mechanic after hours. He makes cupcakes for themed events at her shop. Bodhi is her adopted brother. Chirrut and Baze were their professors in university, as well as old family friends, and they get first dibs on new releases at Jyn’s shop.

Agents of SHIELD but in the A:TLA universe; the Avatar cycle was interrupted, and Cal unwittingly helped Jiaying ‘create’ a new Avatar through extensive experimentation (Daisy is the ‘new’ Avatar, though her powers aren’t activated until later on. She has to deal with new strains of bending and mutations her parents made: Ward can shadowbend, for example)

the characters in Shadow and Bone but in Bayern

this one story I wrote in ninth grade: post-Civil War, Bucky is taken to the Avengers Tower to recuperate and becomes friends with everyone

Tagging @called-kept, @magpie-trove, @imissthembutitwasntadisaster, @madamescarlette if you would like to!!!

My Little Rebel - Inquisitor!Cal Kestis x Female Rebel!Reader | Part 7

Summary: You’re lost in the scrapyards of Bracca but you’re determined to discover the secrets of the planet and your undiscovered past.

Warnings: None

You sat still for hours after witnessing the vision of the Padawan and her master, thoughts raced through your mind and you had to take many moments trying to collect your thoughts. Your heart pounded in shock, you rubbed your temples to soothe the headache that was splitting your head in half and trying not to break down crying out of confusion.

That was you in the vision, you were certain. But you had absolutely no recollection what so ever of even being involved with any Jedi, nevermind training as one yourself. You don’t remember your past, all you ever knew was the Rebellion, nothing else, nothing more. You couldn’t shake off the feeling of familiarity you had when you held Cal’s lightsaber though, and the wound on your hand. Somehow when you woke back up from the vision, it was a scar once again and the blood was all gone. The rolled up poncho was still wrapped tightly around your hand but there was no bleeding and no more pain.

You were determined to find something new, you wanted to learn more about what you saw. You were once a Jedi, how could you not remember? Questions upon questions flourished in your mind and it done nothing for your deafening headache. You got back on track after ages of being trapped in your own thoughts, you journeyed forth to find the next purple hue of force with the lightsaber tight in your hand, claimed itself as yours.

You felt a strange connection to the lightsaber, it was like the force wanted you to have it. It had gone so long without an owner and it had been in the dark for Maker knows how many years.

During your time wandering around the scrapyards, you’ve continued having random visions even if there’s no purple hue or voice calling to you. It started happening randomly ever since you picked up the saber and saw yourself as a little girl. Strange things were happening and you weren’t sure how to feel or react towards it. You weren’t scared or petrified, of anything you were pretty calm at the fact you discovered you had a past as a Padawan.

Moments after you scrambled up a steep mechanical ramp, chest heaving and hair damp with sweat and oil from dripping towers of shipwrecks and pieces, your transmitter bleeped on your wrist and for the first time in days, you finally weren’t alone.

“(Y/N), I don’t know if you remember me, I’m Cere, listen we don’t have much time but you need to get off Bracca now, the Ninth Sister and Eleventh Brother have found your location-“ The voice of a long lost friend emerged out of your transmitter and you snapped out of your daze. Cere Junda, what a surprise. The last time you heard from her you were just starting out at the Rebel base on Yavin and your memory was wiped. Cere reminded you a lot of a mother, she was there for you when your own wasn’t.

But then you were confused all of a sudden, Cal was with Trilla Suduri? Why?

“Why are they looking for me?” You asked impatiently, looking around in fear they’d be behind you or were nearby.

“You’re a Jedi, they can sense your presence. (Y/N), we have a lot to talk about but you need to move now” Cere said in a stern voice.

“Where are you located?” You asked.

“Look behind you”.

Your head whipped around and in the distance, there was a ship hovering above the scrapyards, waiting for you.

“But- my friends-“ You stuttered.

“We’ve alerted them on the situation, don’t worry” Cere replied quickly.

You started fleeting towards the ship, unsheathing the lightsaber to avoid any accidents as you hopped over and ducked under multiple mechanic parts. You knew you had to hurry, there was a storm coming and you heard the faint distant echo of a howling Tie fighter, two in fact.

Cere was standing on the open ramp of the ship, holding her arm out as much and as safely as she could, trying not to lose her balance as you finally got close enough and jumped up to grab her hand. Cere pulled you up with as much strength as possible, grunting and falling back on the ramp as she successfully pulled you up onto the ramp and helped you up and into the ship as quickly as she could.

“Captain, now!”

Your heart was racing, you clung on to your lightsaber as you got inside the ship and collapsed onto the floor. You hadn’t been inside a ship for days, it felt nice being away from the scrapyards.

You were covered in muck, your skin and hair dirty with grime and oil. Your clothes were muddy and dark, shades much more darker than what they used to be before you started the mission. You smelled of metal, polish, oil, Earth, and rain. Not a very pleasant smell, but currently you were too bewildered to really care about yourself.

The ship dashed off into the sky and into hyperspace, not wasting a single moment. You stayed on the ground, holding your head with one hand and the other your lightsaber. Cere bent down and rested a comforting hand on your shoulder, her eyes showing worry as if she was a mother that was reunited with her long lost child.

“Are you alright?” Was her approach, sitting down next to you on the ground and bending down to see your face. You swallowed the lump in your throat and looked up, happiness filling your heart once your eyes met the familiar warm cocoa ones that belonged to your old friend.

“Yeah... I’m okay” You breathed out, your chest still heaving up and down. You looked around the ship curiously, feeling a bit out of place compared to the clean spotless environment of the ship you were currently in.

“Sorry for catching you so off guard, we couldn’t risk being spotted by the Inquisitors” Cere reasoned, looking over to the cockpit to see a Latero male making his way over, a pair of his arms crossed whereas the other were down at his sides.

“Whatever you do, please do not sit on the sofa, takes ages trying to get oil staines out of it” The Latora said in a not so welcoming yet not so threatening voice. You didn’t feel intimidated by him, you just simply nodded and hesitantly raised a hand out for him to shake, might as well make a good first impression.

“I’m (Y/N)” You mumbled, smiling at the Latora who rolled his eyes and shook your hand firmly with one of his free hands, smiling back since you’d made an effort to introduce yourself to him.

“Greez Dritus” He replied, letting your hand go and walking back to the cockpit so he could get the ship out of hyperspace. You looked back to Cere once Greez was out of sight and wasted no time to bring her into a tight embrace, your head buried in her neck. Cere chuckled at your sudden show of affection and hugged you back, stroking your damp hair and closing her eyes, enjoying the moment. She hadn’t been hugged in so long, it felt almost foreign to her.

“It’s relieving to have a friendly face around again” You smiled, pulling away from her and earning yourself a smile in return as Cere nodded in agreement.

“Certainly is. Now, I need to speak with you about that lightsaber” Cere looked down at your left hand, looking almost reluctant as you raised it up and nodded your head.

“Where did you find it?” She asked curiously, you crossed your legs and your boots squeaked against the metal flooring of the ship. You held the lightsaber in both of your hands and sighed.

“It all happened to fast Cere, I- there was a light, and when I touched it I saw a vision, a vision of me as a Jedi. None of this makes sense, I don’t even remember anything about my childhood- I’m scared, Cere” Your voice cracked but you weren’t emotional, you were just frightened. Your childhood was a fragment of your memory that had always been missing. You never had a mother or father, or siblings or grandparents. You didn’t even remember your friends.

Cere looked at you for a brief moment as if she was trying to understand what was going on in your head, she pursed her lips and opened her mouth to speak up, but you could sense the reluctance and you saw how hesitant she was in what she was about to say.

“I think it’s about time you knew... when the Purge was executed, your Master Shaak Ti, removed your memory and raced them with false ones, then put you in my care. She wanted you to be safe, she felt as though she couldn’t protect you and it seemed to be the only option. I’m sorry you had to find out this way, (Y/N)” Cere said with pity in her voice. Her words echoed in your mind and you stared off into the distance with your eyebrows furrowed and mouth open slightly.

“So my mother being a mechanic... was lies? M-my father as well?” You stuttered nervously, hands shaking and eyes pricking with tears as you looked at Cere, desperate for an answer.

“That was true, but the mother you remember wasn’t your real one. Your real mother died in childbirth and the woman you do remember brought you up as her own. As for your father, he died long before you were born” Cere answered truthfully, her eyes held sympathy for you but you weren’t sure if you wanted it or not. Your heart felt so heavy, you needed to clear your head.

“This is a lot” You sighed, rubbing your temple and trying to calm the ache developing in your head.

“It would be best if you tried meditating, connect to the past” Cere suggested, taking your hand and standing up. You followed her actions and wobbled onto your feet, like a newborn Bantha taking It’s first steps. Cere lead you to the back of the ship where you guessed the rooms were. You were lead to the back one where a small single bed sat as well as a cabinet and lamp.

“I know it’s not much, but it’s better than sleeping in those scrapyards I hope” Cere joked, you smiled at her and nodded before sitting down on the surprisingly comfortable bed and shuffling around on it to get comfy.

“So... how do I do it?” You asked cluelessly, placing your lightsaber down on the cabinet and away from reach so it wouldn’t accidentally end up igniting and hurting someone. Cere sat down next to you and told you to cross your legs, you removed your boots and done as she said.

“Listen to me carefully, remember, this is your first time so if you don’t get it right, that’s completely okay” Cere assured you kindly, making you feel slightly better as your hands rested on your knees and you listened to her every word.

“Close your eyes” You done as she said, inhaling deeply and letting your lids shut over until everything was black.

“Now... try and clear your thoughts; push out both negative and positive emotions, keep your head in a neutral mindset” You were clinging on to her every word, doing as she said with great caution and taking spaced out breaths to help with clearing your head.

You done as Cere asked and blocked both negative and positive so your mind was almost blank, the only thing existing inside of it was your wandering conscience.

“Good, now, open your mind and reach out to the force” Cere almost felt like she herself was meditating as she called out the instructions to you, her heart calm and head clear as she watched you try your best.

You thought she was crazy for a second, but then you remembered that in order to get to your past you had to do this. You had to reach out

Your mind was clear and you tried stretching it out in hopes you’d feel something. A strange aura surrounded you and you felt like the room was completely empty. No cere, not even you. You didn’t feel like you were in the room anymore. You felt like you were floating in space, your body light weight as you drifted off to wherever the force took you. You accomplished reaching out to it, now you had to find what you were eager to know.

You opened your eyes to find that you weren’t in front of Cere anymore or even on the ship. You were a current conscience in your head and you somehow managed to wake up in a strange realm of the force where mostly everything was white and unrecognisable. Your surroundings were blank, but you weren’t physically there, you knew this place had a purpose.

Looking around, you spotted multiple purple hues like the ones from earlier, surrounding you at all angles and hovering abode nothing as they awaited your eager hands. You walked over to the closest one, crouching down and trustfully slipping your hand into the hue, closing your eyes and feeling yourself be taken to a new time period.

You were suddenly on the ground, eyes still closed but a bright light was shining down on you. It felt like you were on a padded ground, slightly cushioned but not enough to bounce on. You pulled yourself up, opening your eyes and noticing you were im completely different attire. You were in Jedi robes, your hair was shorter and a small plait trailed down your left shoulder.

“Try again Padawan, your emotions will get in the way of many things, do not let it stop you by filling your head with doubt” You looked up to see a platform much more high up than you currently were. A tall Togrota woman dressed in beautiful orange toned robes stood on the edge and watched you with a calm, serene expression.

“Yes master” You said, your voice more squeaky than you remembered.

The wall shifted and created a complex obstacle course for you to complete, consisting of wall runs, wall climbs, double jumps and lots of upper strength. A sudden rush of determination came over you and you sprinted towards a levitating platform that lead to a wall run. You skidded a bit on the wall but managed to grab onto the next platform in time, or else you’d be falling to the ground and meet a fairly unpleasant injury. Pulling yourself up, you caught your breath before running as fast as you can to a railing on the side of another levitating platform. This time it was on its side, hovering up and down which made it a bit more tricky to grab onto it.

“Very good, Padawan” Shaak Ti praised, not yet congratulating you as she watched your small form clumsily glide through the obstacle course. You scurried up the railing and onto the top of the platform, huffing out short breaths as your face flushed with exhaustion, but you weren’t finished yet.

As you got onto the top of the platform, you noticed Master Plo Koon had arrived with his team of clones, the Wolffepack. Just as you were about to get excited, Shaak Ti waved out a platform for you to dodge and overcome.

“Concentrate, Padawan” She scolded in a warning tone, placing her hand down behind her back once more and consulting with Plo who watched you with interest, hoping you’d do well on your course. The clones watched as well with wide eyes as you ran across a few more walls and clambered up and double jumped a few platforms. You were visibly worn out, but Shaak could feel the energy in you. She admired it greatly and decided to outdraw the course a little bit longer to see if you could take what she could give you.

“Final assessment, Young Padawan” Shaak announced, watching you intently as she programmed more obstacles to appear from the floor and walls, even the ceilings. At the corner of your eye, you noticed that Commander Wolffe had dropped to one knee and aimed his blaster at you. Quickly, you grabbed your lightsaber and ignited it, balancing on a thin platform and smiling to him as you dodged each and every one of his hits. Wolffe stopped firing and aimed his gun up to avoid shooting anyone. He took his helmet off, looking almost like a proud father as you bowed to him and giggled.

The Wolffepack were proud that their little Padawan had come so far, it was as if only yesterday they met you as a 11 year old. Now, at 15, you were the strongest Padawan they knew and they were honoured to fight by your side.

“Not bad kid!” Wolffe exclaimed, his scarred eye winking and making you chuckle as the platforms formed to make a pathway for you to join your master and Plo at the top. You practically skipped up the way, excited at your accomplishment and walking to your master, a soft yet proud smile on her face.

“Well done, (Y/N), I am so pleased with your progress” Shaak spoke, cupping your cheek with her red hand and moving it to pat your shoulder gently.

“Congrats kid! We knew you’d smash it” Wolffe raised his hand up and you were quick to smash your own against it. The Wolffe pack surrounded you, congratulating you on your achievement and patting your back roughly. It wasn’t gentle as your masters but you didn’t mind, they were considered your family after all.

“Come on kid, let’s celebrate!”.

POV: Reader’s.

I could hear my own screams echoing off the walls of the large room I was in, I could only see the walkway from the entrance and the stormtroopers in front of me. The black panels had purple electricity flowing on it, reminding me of purge troopers and their weapons. I tried to yank my wrist out of the braces once more but i could feel bruises and welts forming, causing me to wince.

The panels folding outward, away from me, and I sighed. “Wh-what now?” I muttered to the troopers who just stood there, motionless. “Well? Answer me!” I shouted. I’ve been loosing my sanity with every minute that passed by, is this what they wanted? Didn’t they want me to break so they could remold me? Is this it?

I heard a slow hiss of pressure being released, at first I thought it was the panels about to close in on me again, but then a door opened at the end of the hallway. Just as a figure began to walk towards me, the troopers turned away and walked towards the figure. I could only make out mumbling between the three being before two of them left and the third continue towards me.

The inquisitor outfit and masculine frame ruled out all possible answers other than it was Cal, the Second Brother. “Have you ever been told it’s rude to yell?” I wanted to be able to glare at him but his dark helmet and me not seeing his expressions made it a bit hard to do that. “How does it feel to be yelled at?” He raised his voice and kicked a pole, making it dent. “How does it feel?”

I flinched as he took an impactful step forward, pushing my back farther into the black metal I was pinned against. “Cal, you’re being a little bit of a hypocrite,” a nervously laughed to try and pull myself back together. Pull the parts of me that have been breaking for the past few days.

He turned to the side and put his hands on the barriers on the side, I could hear him take a breath out and try to compose himself. I watched him slowly take off his helmet and set it down on top of the control panel. He looked up at me and was about to say something until i interrupted, “you have a scar on your right side, how’d that happen” 

Cal’s face contorted into a confused look, “are you seriously asking about that instead of where you are, how you got here, and instead a scar I have?”

“I got here from the Ninth Sister totally kicking my ass,” I laughed and watched his face stay tense. “I’m assuming this is Fortress Inquisitorous?” His face dropped shockingly, “yeah Cere has told me a tiny bit about this place, I never thought this would be my first visit to it.”

“Smart ass,” he looked down and mumbled to himself. “Speaking of Cere,” he looked back up to me with a sly look, “did she tell you how she betrayed me and more importantly, how she’s betraying you at this very moment.”

I stumbled, “wh-what are you going on about? Cere told me how she cracked and was broken by the Empire and gave you up because she broke underneath all the pressure. She’s changed since then, she wouldn’t leave me here.” Would she?

Cal leaned against the pole he previously dented and crossed his arms, “the Mantis knows where you are. The broke into the Ninth Sister’s comms on her ship, they heard where we were taking you and look,” I could feel his eyes look me over, I never wanted to snap his neck more. “You’re still here, where are the Jedi’s friends now? Hmm?” 

I wanted to cry, I wanted to scream, I wanted to punch him. He’s lying, he has to be, he’s telling me this to break me, he wants me to break. The worst part about this, is that it’s working. I have to keep myself together for everyone, it doesn’t matter what Cere does or did, I can only control my own actions.

The Second Brother was waiting for my answer, but what do I even say? “They’re probably just waiting for the right time,” I took a deep breath and collected myself. “Your words mean nothing to me.” Do I even believe what I’m saying?

“You wanna know how I got my scar?” I nodded and he turned around, I saw his hand raise to his face but I don’t know what he did. “When the empire had me face Cere, to show her what her actions had done to me, she grew dark. When I realized the true extent of the corruption in the Jedi which made me an Inquisitor, she couldn’t handle it. She attacked every person in that room, she killed so many troops and almost killed me.

“As she was leaving, I tried to stop her. She was standing in front of the escape pods, I was standing at the end of the hallway, not even doing anything except talking to her, trying to tell her what the empire told me. Then, out of nowhere, she pulled out a blaster and shot me, I tried to dodge it but I wasn’t quick enough then.” Cal turned back around and his face was full of anger and hurt.

“Do you understand how it feels to have your master not only turn you into the empire but to shoot you? There wasn’t an ounce of remorse in her face, Y/N. She... she made me this. The Jedi made me this.”

I looked down at the ground, unable to form any words. “Cal, I-” Then the doors opened again, the stormtroopers were back and pressure crew in my abdomen. Not again, oh god, not again. They approached him and he whispered a few things back to them before putting his helmet back on.

He stared at the control panel, and I swore, as he was about to push a button his hand hesitated. He hesitated.
