La Velue was a terrible dragon who dwelled within a cavern by the Huisne. While it was ultimately slain, its various abilities made it quite a fearsome thing.
On spite it lived on beyond the flood, and with spite it acted until the very end.

The Weight We Carry ~ E ~ gingerrose ~ post-TROS canonverse AU ~ secret missions and covert operations ~ 1/16
Rose Tico is floundering after the war - no home, no family, no purpose. When she is offered the opportunity to be part of a covert group tasked with identifying and neutralizing potential threats to the New Republic, she jumps at the chance.
It's only after their first mission that Rose learns her teammates' identities: an assassin, a spicerunner, a former stormtrooper, and the man who once ordered her execution.
But is he more than that?
Or is he the same cunning, self-serving tactician with his own hidden agenda?
As they train, plan, and execute missions, Rose begins to wonder if she has finally found her purpose. Maybe even a family - with women who fight and love as fiercely as sisters, a boy who needs her as much as she needs him, an overbearing droid, and even a cat.
Is Hux a part of that purpose? That family? Or will his secrets and their consequences destroy it all?
(reblogs appreciated)

Queer Star Wars Characters (Round 1): General Bracket Match 20
Dec Hansen | Identity: gay | Media: Join the Resistance
Dec Hansen is a main character in the aborted middle grade novel series following a squad of 14 year olds who joined the Resistance. He was born on the isolated swamp planet of Ques. An only child, his mother built him a droid named AG-90 to act as his brother. When he was young, he ran away from home because of “something that made him different”, before eventually crawling back to his mother and telling her about it, where it turned out his community was actually accepting. Ben Blacker, one of the authors confirmed this was about him being gay. Which feels like meta-commentary about representation. Ques wasn’t homophobic, but because Dec had never heard of same gender attraction he felt isolated.
With the Resistance, Dec was quite the trouble marker, in part because command didn’t accept AG as his brother and let him train as a pilot. He quickly became friends with the main protagonist of the series, Mattis. After his shenanigans caused a power outage on the base, J-Squadron was sent to the thought to be abandoned planet Vodran to scavenge. Dec was separated from most of the Squad and ended up on the planet's moon, where Hadra the Hutt, the planet’s old ruler, was living in exile. They bonded over their mental health problems and feeling different from their community, which convinced Hadra to help liberate his friends from the First Order prison on the planet. With J-Squadron reunited, they traveled to Starkiller Base to save Jo from his First Order parents. They managed to escape right as Starkiller Base was being destroyed and returned to D’Qar right before the evacuation. They were presumably sent on a special mission shortly after, like the many Resistance characters who didn’t appear in TLJ. Unfortunately the failure of TROS means it will be a long time before his series is finished.
Conder Kyl | Identity: mlm | Media: Aftermath trilogy
Conder Kyl was a New Republic slicer employed by New Republic intelligence. Between the first two books of the Aftermath trilogy, he began a relationship with Sinjir Rath Velus (the first queer character in the New EU), a member of an Imperial war criminal capture squad. However, due to Sinjir’s alcoholism and hatred of vulnerability from being part of the ISB, their relationship was strained. Believing himself to be an unworthy partner, Sinjir broke up with Conder. However, Sinjir latter approached Conder and begged for his help to help work through all the politicking in the Senate against sending New Republic forces to Jakku. In the process, Conder was captured, and after Sinjir rescued him the two reconciled and got back together. Conder later got the chance to save Sinjir’s life in the process of foiling an assassination attempt against Mon Mothma. After the Battle of Jakku, he married Sinjir. His most recent appearance was a cameo in the novel Last Shot, where he is the chief of cyberware in the New Republic’s Digital Warfare Department.
As he is a supporting character, he doesn’t get any PoV chapters. Despite being a very skilled slicer, he is very straightforward and simply good. Despite Sinjir’s own self-esteem problems, he didn’t mistrust Sinjir for being an ex-Imperial. All the conflict in the relationship came from Sinjir’s own mental health problems.
