My favorite moments are when Cassian could manipulate and encourage people to do whatever he wants, throw some arguments and ideas, not always working right away of course, but the process of it show how clever he is. (especially in the feud with Nurchi in episode 1 >o<)

i think the thing that i really just do not like about nurchi’s death (besides the obvious reason of another dark skin black character being killed off in a show that’s already notorious for doing such thing) is that it doesn’t make sense? i mean sure it could be a commentary about “upholding facism doesn’t mean it’ll protect you from it” but we already saw that with timm and which just makes it unnecessary. to make it even further unnecessary is what reason did nurchi have to rat cassian out? all we know about nurchi is that cassian owes money to him. that’s it. that’s all. we do know he wants his money badly which makes him dislike cassian because cassian still hasn’t paid up. that’s the reason for his dislike against cassian. but then in episode 7 when cassian returns to ferrix, he gives bix money to give to the people he owes-- including nurchi. now it could be assumed that bix didn’t want to give nurchi the money but what reason does she have not to? and then nurchi just happens to be there when he overhears a conversation a dozen yards away about how cassian is showing up to the funeral (and maybe i’ll suspend my belief for this one-- it is star wars after all-- but i’ll still mention how much of a huge fucking coincidence this is) so this leaves me to my main thing is that if nurchi got his money (which it’s fair to assume so given that implication of cassian literally telling bix to pay back all the people he owes) why does he rat cassian out? like maybe im just missing something but if he eventually got his money back like??? and then that bites nurchi in the ass and he gets killed and it’s another black character getting killed off when he could’ve just ran away after seeing the riot and his ending would’ve been ambiguous which would be so much better than what we got instead of another black character getting killed off (compared to the black characters that get to live and there’s like 3 of them)

I’ve been holding onto this thought until I could see what they did with the end of the season, but it does bear repeating that it sucks that nearly all of the named black characters we get in the show either die, are Imperials, or aiding the Imperials; the exception is Saw, who we know dies in Rogue One without getting to see the success of Rebellion.
It’s been pointed out by other folks on here that none of the black rebels live to see the rebellion they’re a part of come to fruition. While a lot of characters across different races die this season, there is a noticeable absence of named black characters living to see another day in the end. Not only that, but Andor’s father Clem is killed in a way that hits far too close to home in the real world, and while the show is meant to reflect and criticize so many of the problems our current society has in itself, this does still mean there’s a noticeable part of the show that is going to be difficult for black audiences to contend with (both in regards to the police brutality and the hanging itself). While the depiction may be done with care, it’s still there and it still contributes to the number of times it happens in media
Something that could have been done differently would have been swapping Maarva and Clem’s roles. I bring them up because even for as much as I like both characters and their respective actors’ performances, it wouldn’t have changed a lot of the story if their places had been switched. I would have liked to see Clem as the figurehead in the community whose passing brought the people of Ferrix together and sparked the retaliation against the Imperial occupation, with his visage and speech being the one people were literally looking up to in the end. It would have been just as beautiful to see Cassian’s relationship with a loving father as it was with his mother, and though it would have been differently heartbreaking if Maarva had been the one caught in the wrong place and wrong time on Rix Road all those years ago, it would still have been an atrocity of the Empire without adding to the amount of traumatic black deaths we see or that are alluded to in tv shows and movies in general. Again, I don’t think the original choice was done without care and I understand what the writers were criticizing/highlighting, but that part of the story still happens.
I guess it would have been nice to see a black character like Clem with a more prominent position and dialogue in the story like Maarva’s role. A Son of Ferrix, cared for by his community and worried over by his adopted son, giving the call to action and having a more visible role, resisting the Empire up to the end. Having a wife whose death had just as much impact on him and Cassian as his did on them, having just as strong and complex a relationship with Cassian, all of it. All of their dialogue and the dialogue about them could have remained the same if they were in each other’s roles.
There could have been a way for Lieutenant Gorn or Taramyn to make it out of Aldhani without it interfering with Vel’s perception of Cassian and Luthen’s directive to kill Cassian later. Nurchi didn’t have to be a snitch, or he could have double-crossed the Imps there at the end. Birnok could have survived the prison escape. Melshi’s role could have been switched for Stordan Tonc, another of Cassian’s crew from Rogue One.
It just feels like there could have been a little bit more done to ensure some of these lives had the chance to go on, even in a story where so much is being sacrificed already.

Lilith by Nurchie
Fic: Altered State by ginnyruin
Chapter 54: Eden excerpt:
Without a doubt, every version of Voldemort was the same; he’d force her into a dance she couldn’t resist. And even fully aware of the strings, she was drawn to the highly skilled puppeteer on his throne. But he’d make her dance until her body was twisted and broken, and then toss her aside. The least she could do was give him a good show.

Just thinking about the tall guy who is just there to look imposing when that narc guy tries to shake Cassian down in episode 1 and Cassian is like... oh heyyy buddy we should go for a drink sometime.
Anyway in season 2 I wish we could see them go for a drink.
VETCH he's wonderful
"you said all I had to do was stand here"
"...good. you keep doing that. *lil arm pat*"

i recently finished my rewatch of Andor and i noticed a pattern in which the show's Black characters are all short changed. first, you have Taramyn and Lt. Gorn who both die quickly when the garrison heist goes haywire, then you have supervisor Blevin who's incompetent and antagonistic towards main character Dedra, and you also have Nurchi, the guy in Ferrix that Cassian owes money to and who eventually collaborates with the imperials and dies. and also Clem, Cassian's father who died in the backstory. by the time you get to Nurchi's fate in the last episodes you really realize that wait, there's something wrong here. the only exception is Saw but that's because he's a previously established character whose fate is safe (for now) but who, nonetheless, is often positioned as being antagonistic to the less radical non-Black, mostly white, heroes in other SW media

while i deeply loved the show and appreciated a lot of what it did there were some things that disappointed me about andor:
pretty much every black character of note died. tamaryn, gorn, clem, nurchi, and birnok off the top of my head. like, that’s a choice and not a good one. i think jazzi and blevin are the ones with speaking roles that make it. 
bix’s storyline revolves around her being tortured and than rescued. it’s just that i thought she’d become more radicalized after what happened during the first arc and timm being murdered in front of her, i guess. i would’ve liked seeing her more active. 
i would’ve liked kenari to be fleshed out more. it’s just kind of there floating in the background unaddressed. 
maarva andor kidnapped a child and i did not find it satisfactorily addressed. she’s a complicated character and not morally pure which is fine it’s just hey that’s a thing that happened and should be at least talked about a little bit, maybe.

Fic: Altered State by ginnyruin
Explicit, 240K words (WIP)
Summary:
Six years after the Battle of Hogwarts, Auror Hermione Granger activated a mysterious dark object, which unexpectedly sent her decades into the past. Tom Riddle, now known as Voldemort, returned to British wizarding society in 1966 after a decade-long absence. Under the guise of interviewing for the Defense Against the Dark Arts teaching position, he arrived at Hogwarts to conceal one of his Horcruxes. But he soon discovered that the coveted position had been stolen a week earlier by an intriguing witch. As manipulative schemes emerged, tension evolved into a ruinous obsession.

Some more space-football au sketches including Ferrix kids playing pickup, Cassian on the pitch, and an early training dispute between Cassian and Jyn that the rest of their teammates are powerless to solve.
