ok SO funny story… when i was younger I got a lot of lego sets as gifts, but there were barely any w/ girl characters in them at the time (esp the Star Wars sets) so my dad used to buy “girl faces” and replace some lego figures’ faces with them… sometimes they would be random made-up characters, but sometimes they were actual existing side characters he’d pulled off a wiki somewhere ig? and i was looking thru a bag of them the other day and pulled out one i knew was some real character but I had no idea who she was at first but - the figure used to be jango fett and I thought she might be related, and I asked my dad to confirm and. ARLA. arla fett, jango’s dead(?) sister who was brainwashed into a cult and has like 10x more story written abt her on ao3 than in any canon sources. i don’t even know how my dad managed to make her story sound nice or child-appropriate when he gave me the figure??? but anyway i have a bootleg arla lego figure isn’t she cool lmao
the hair is new but everything else is how I found her lol
the brown eyes vs blue eyes discourse(?) on this site is so ridiculous? can we stop being so weird abt a physical feature that people have no control over
I think an underappreciated element of Leia's character is that even after days or weeks of ruthless interrogation interspersed with torture, she still had the presence of mind to identify a feature of the Stormtrooper who barged into her cell that she could mock.
sorry we used your girlfriend in an unethical cloning experiment. she's the new genetic base for an army now. yeah, she has fought and she has bled. now eternity will see her dead. sorry.
um ok Strawhats Star Wars au (think like clone wars era-ish) where they’re all space pirates…
- Luffy is a force-sensitive Mandalorian foundling from a covert of True Mandalorians hiding bc the New Mandalorians currently control the planet (Shanks is his buir btw) (he’s standard human …?)
- Zoro is a former Jedi youngling who left after his crèche-mate and best friend Kuina died, he fights with two of his own lightsabers as well as Kuina’s white saber (he’s an oni-like species)
- Nami used to work for a group of bounty hunters/spice runners from an aquatic planet and was picked up by them after they took a bounty out for Bell-mere (she’s half aquatic species, half human, so Arlong’s crew like her even less…)
- Usopp is another Mandalorian from Luffy’s covert and a sniper who’s skilled with any weapon, but especially an energy slingshot he modified from an energy crossbow (he’s a near-human species notable for their long noses)
- Sanji is a modified clone who escaped from the cloning facilities as a kid, his siblings are an enhanced special ops team (think bad batch) and the rest of the clone army look pretty normal (black hair, no curly brows- those are a sign of enhancements) so most people don’t clock him as a clone at first
[big crashing sound] Did anyone else hear that!? I think God fell from the Kingdom of Heaven! Come on everyone, let's feast on his corpse until something bad happens!
