| part 2 > ( coming soon )

knocking from your front door was what finally had you changing from your nightly attire and emerging from the isolation of your room, not without some struggle, though, seeing as it was only 8 in the morning and you were pretty sure half your brain was still dreaming.

rubbing the remnants of rest from your eyes and trudging absentmindedly down the stairs and to the entrance, you had to fumble for the key and unlock the door, then struggling to just pull it open. dropping your hand and forcing your eyes open, you were met with blaring sun and a stout figure. you squinted. "ma? why are you—"

"oh, dear." without warning, she shoved a platter into your arms and drew closer, running her hands down your shirt and straightening your appearance. "don't tell me you just woke up! it's—" she looked down at her watch, "8 am already, y/n. you must greet your guests with formality."

you sighed, looking down at the plate and inspecting the contents. "ma, it's too early for.. fruits." of course she had appeared at your door, at 8 in the morning, with a big dish of strawberries, grapes, and pineapples, because she was your mother. you expected no less.

you looked up at her with a brow raised, gesturing to the platter.

"well, i know how much you like them. we had some left over from the dinner party just last night." she shrugged. "now, will you let your guest in, or have her stand outside all day?"

not without some hesitation, you stepped off to the side and opened the door wider for her to enter in, shutting it behind her once she had begun her descent down the corridor to your kitchen. "a mess, y/n. do you ever clean around here? for guests, at least?" it was not a mess. aside from a stray duster on the ground and one of your cat's toys, your house was perfectly fine, actually.

you rolled your eyes and set the platter down on the kitchen counter, unraveling the plastic wrap from the top and pulling it off. you plucked a strawberry and popped it into your mouth. "i didn't expect any guests. and plus, you're my mother— what are you—?"

"i'm cooking breakfast. coffee is not a meal." she was rummaging through the fridge, pulling out some eggs and frozen bacon and plopping it onto the counter by the stove. you heaved an exasperated breath.

"ma—"

"well, you need to eat something," she drawled, clicking her tongue. you gave up the fight, turning back to the fruit and rounding the counter so you could sit in one of the many chairs lining it. the crackle of cooking yolk and simmering heat filled the quiet. your mother hummed as she worked, and you focused solely on the fruit, slightly appreciative of this meal.

"you know, anakin's back in town for the summer. george and i hope it's to stay. that boy is always on the move." she chuckled, shaking her head. you looked up from the platter, brows pinning together, surprise etching into your features.

"he is?" from what you knew, your best friend since childhood had been out in new york, for reasons that never got to you. or maybe it was dallas? spokane? you had no idea. you never did. it was true, anakin was always moving around, as if scared to settle. it was why you had stopped talking so much. not because of any miscommunications or fights, but just because he left so often, that it was hard to keep in touch. he had ambitions. hopes. feelings and things to do that you never had even known of, ever even dabbled in. he was always that type. to want everything all at once. you stopped trying after a while. it all came to be too much, and prior to the fallout, there was no implication he cared much, either. not that you cared. you didn't. sure, it sucked to see a friend go, but maybe that bond was always meant to fray, as childhood friendships always do.

you looked back down at the fruit, swallowing thickly and deciding you did not want to eat any longer. "i never thought i'd hear those words, actually," you quipped as you pushed away the platter, even as a frown came to your lips. your mother laughed. "how— how is he?"

"oh, good. all good. he visited last night, y'know. at the dinner. he looked well. god, he grew. oh, and he's renovating. his house, i mean. needs somewhere to stay until it's done..." she trailed off, turning with the pan and a plate and eyeing you as she stepped up to the counter and slid the egg onto the glass. you bristled, understanding what she was implying.

"so that's why you're here.. mom, we don't even talk anymore! it would just be weird to invite him here out of the blue! i can't just..."

"but you could talk again," she countered, shrugging and turning to the sink. the pan clinked against the metal. "and don't act like it wouldn't be good for you, either. you've been wasting away in this house. some company would be a well fit for you." she walked back over with a fork and pushed the plate to you, but you had already lost your appetite. you looked distastefully down at the eggs.

"ma..."

"just consider it, y/n. i know you like your privacy, or whatever you call this.." she gestured to the house and trailed off without finishing the sentence. you rolled your eyes. "but really, just think about it, okay?" a moment of silence. "well, i've got to get to my pilates classes. eat all of that, y/n. i didn't make it for the trash, now did i?"

you sighed in defeat as you watched her pat her leggings and pull out her car keys, which jingled loudly when she waved goodbye and whooshed down the hallway, the sound of the door opening and closing following in suit. you watched her leave, eyes remaining on the bend and fingers balled tightly, your shoulders slumped inward. maybe she was right. you were getting tired of this isolation, this complete quiet. maybe... just for a month or two, this stranger with a past you shared could move in until his renovations were over.

you didn't know how long you sat there, thinking, before you ultimately reached for your phone in your pocket and pulled it out, unlocking it and swiping to your messages. you weren't sure if you still had his number personally, but surely on some group chat... and there it was. you clicked onto his information and the typing bar came into view. all you had to do now was actually write him. you hesitated. this was nothing, certainly. just being friendly, even for somebody you weren't friends with anymore.

hey, it's y/n. my mom told me you were back in town? you typed up, hitting send before you could think badly of it. immediately, you set the phone facing down on the table, making yourself get up and do something with yourself to ease the anxiety. it was 30 minutes later that he responded.

---

Hey, it's been a while.

Yea, I'm back in town. Do you need something?

You don't usually text.

you laid in bed, staring at the three, gray boxes, before responding.

oh, no, i don't need anything. i just heard you were getting renovations done, and decided to reach out and see if you needed a place to stay or anything.

sorry about this suddenness, i just know you don't usually stay here a while, and my mom was telling me all about it, so...

the jumping circles popped onto the screen. you bit your lip and tried to keep yourself from further simplifying this conversation.

Oh, I mean, that would be great. Renting here is harder than I'd thought it would be 😭😭

yea, it's always hard in small towns...

i just figured you'd appreciate it. i really don't mind. stay as long as you'd like, in fact. it's getting boring all alone, anyways

Thank you, Y/n. This is really a big help. The renovations won't take that long.

good to know :)

just come by whenever you'd like. my door is always open.

---

and open it was indeed.

---

when the doorbell rang, you made yourself calm down. made yourself breathe, before you walked down the stairs and unlocked the entrance. there he stood.

"hi." it really wasn't that big of a deal. in fact, it hardly meant anything at all. you knew he wouldn't bother you, even if you didn't know him that well anymore. so why were you so nervous, standing in front of him, surveying his every movement, his new appearance?

the last time you saw anakin skywalker was christmas dinner 3 years ago. he had been a thin, tall boy. now, he was a broader, taller man. his jaw was more strongly-set, his features a sharp fit of lines and angles, and his eyes, darkly blue in the shadows and shade. fortunately, he seemed just as nervous.

"hey," he spoke, lightly smiling, which surprised you, how easily his expression averted. you shifted on your feet awkwardly, clearing your throat.

"well, uhm, come— come in." you motioned him inside, stepping away from the door for him. "i'll show you around, and everything."

anakin nodded, licking his lips and stepping in. he let the handle of his suitcase drop and grabbed the smaller handle instead, lifting it off the ground. you took it from him, setting it aside.

"new house?" he asked, looking around.

"oh, yea. it's nothing much." you shrugged, following his gaze. "here, your room's upstairs." beforehand, you had cleaned every crevice and crack of the house thoroughly, and now, it was pretty much spotless. you heard him following behind you as you walked up the steps, pushing open the door across from yours and allowing him in. you cleaned this room extra thoroughly.

"this is it. if you need anything at all, just tell me. other than that, the essentials are all in here." you watched him walk inside, leaving his bag by the door. he turned to you, smiled.

"thank you for this, y/n. really, it's a huge help. i'm sure you know that, though."

you laughed it off, waving your hand in dismissal. "really, no need for thanks. just doing what friends do." though... the words felt somewhat sour on your tongue. anakin only nodded, shoving his hands in his the pockets of his hoodie. he stood in this casual sort of way, that made your own, awkward stance, look out of place.

"so, how are you, anyways? i just realized, we haven't caught up or anything. it's been... what..."

"3 years," you quickly filled in for him, shoulders bunching. he cocked his head.

"wow, already, huh?"

you swallowed, nodding. "yea.. already..." though it didn't feel like "already". "so, how.. how are you? how was new york? that's where you went, right?"

anakin ran a hand across his neck, a muscle jumping in his jaw as he set his teeth. "i've been good. new york was.. nice, yea. a bit... congested, but good. very pretty. it was nice to get away for a bit, y'know?" so 2 and a half years for him was "a bit". you bit the inside of your cheek.

"of course.. and you went... because...?"

you expected a quick response. something astounding. something unfathomable for a girl who'd lived in the same town her whole life. something only the streets and corridors of new york city could bring forth. but all anakin did was shrug and say, "job offering", which you wholeheartedly doubted.

"and how are you?" he asked a bit more awkwardly than before. you, confused, cleared your throat.

"yea, i'm good, too. i've been doing well. my mom says i need to get away for a bit, like you did. but... i don't know. i think we're opposite in that sense. i like it here." you shrugged, looking down at your feet. you saw him nod, and before he could say anything in response, you perked and slowly ran your hands down your jeans. "well, again, if you need anything, just let me know. feel free to make yourself comfortable, cook something to eat from the fridge or something."

anakin nodded, licking his lips. "alright. thanks again."

"any time, of course." and you backed out.

---

the morning sun had you squinting your eyes, rubbing the dregs of sleep from your face, and avoiding all the windows as you made your way downstairs and through the corridor to the kitchen for a cup of coffee.

you hadn't seen anakin since last night, after you'd left his room and given him space to unpack. you were unsure where he was now, but you'd seen his car parked in your driveway, so he must've been home. and sure enough, there he sat, at the counter, looking fully awake. because only anakin could look fully awake at 9 am. he was nursing some cereal.

"up already?" you asked, sending him a nod of acknowledgment and turning to the coffee machine. "some things never change, huh?"

he chuckled behind you. "i guess not, especially since you still wake up late."

"you sound just like my mom." you filled the empty compartment with water and turned on the machine, turning to the counter at which he sat and sending him a smug look, before disappearing below to search for a mug. when you remerged you held up two. "coffee?"

he cocked his head, dropping his spoon in his now-empty bowl and leaning back in his chair. "i don't like coffee. thought you'd remember that."

you sighed a sarcastic 'ahhh', turning back around with both and setting one on the machine. "shame. i make the best coffee this town's ever had."

"oh, trust me. i remember just how it tasted," he laughed, and you chuckled yourself, slightly aching to remember that small little film shoved to the back of your head. 16, and best friends for what looked like would be life.

"then you should remember its awesomeness," you shot back, pushing away the thought. "or you should really polish up your memory. unless i can just make you one and restore it back to new right now?" the machine rumbled as it emptied gritted beans into the holder, and then, black liquid into your cup.

"still a no," he said anyways. you felt him walk up behind you, and you thought, for a moment, that he'd join your side, or something, but instead, he turned to the sink and began washing his dish and spoon. well, at least he had manners.

"one day, maybe." as the coffee worked, you turned to the kettle and heated up some water, pulling tea from your cupboard. you waited by its side, tapping your nail against the counter. "and how'd you sleep? is there anything i can get you, at all?"

over rushing, steaming water, anakin shook his head, turning off the faucet and wiping his hands on a nearby towel. he turned to you once done. "no, i'm good for now. and shit, your pillows are fucking clouds, did you know that?"

you laughed, turning around once you heard the beeping from the kettle. "what, you've been sleeping on bricks or something?" you grabbed the handle and emptied the liquid into his mug.

"feels like it compared to yours." when all was done, you left your own beverage on the machine, and instead, took the other cup of herbal water, turning to anakin, who had found his way back to his seat, watching you work, and pushing the mug to him across the table.

"just the way you still like it, i hope." obviously, to remember his favorite drink, you had the better memory of the two.

Making of Monday

This week I offer up a deleted scene from Pining in Preschool chapter 30, where Obi-Wan and Anakin come back home again after reconciling at Qui-Gon’s after their big fight.

I had a major habit of throwing SO MUCH into every chapter of PiP. Part of it was I did want them going through a lot, it was what pushed them to work through their collective baggage to arrive in a much better place. BUT a lot of it was I was new to writing and figuring out pacing and crammed in a ton, worried about showing the downtimes when big things weren’t happening.

This scene got cut because it was leading to Anakin being sick - he was going to wake up in the morning super sick and Obi-Wan was going to take care of the kids and take care of everything work on rebuilding trust and showing the kids he wasn’t going anywhere.

Too much.

[edited to add: ALSO I can’t really remember but I think i had previously cut or at least significantly reduced the interaction between Anakin and Quin when he asked him to come take care of Boga so he and the kids could flee the Obi-Wanless house go camping for a few days]

I instead ended chapter 30 on a positive note at Qui-Gon’s cabin, and then had chapter 31 be the family camping trip where they have family time and solid communication and rebuild that trust all together.

Read below the cut for the deleted scene

***

Luke’s head rolls to the side as Anakin lifts him from his car seat. Both twins had fallen asleep on the ride home shortly after leaving Qui-Gon’s cabin in the woods, as soon as they were convinced that Obi-Wan was coming as well. He arrives to ease Leia into his arms, snoring softly.

“What is Quinlan doing here?” Obi-Wan sounds mystified as he eyes the extra car in the driveway as they pass by.

“Oh, I asked him to stop by and feed Boga while we were camping.” Anakin grunts as he shifts Luke to one side to open the door. From the entryway they can just see Quin sprawled on the floor with the ginger tabby kneading his stomach. “Make yourself at home, why don’t you,” he calls out.

“Excuse me for spending a couple minutes looking after this precious thing, like you asked.” Quin rolls his eyes as he stands. “You look like shit, Obes,” he frowns as he looks him over. “Uhhh you too, kid. Is everything -”

“I don’t think we like camping,” Anakin mumbles in his direction. Now that he’s home everything must be catching up to him, he feels leaden as he moves to take Leia from Obi-Wan. “Take your time and hang with Quin if you want, inspect the damage. I’ll put these guys down and then pass out myself. I’m dead tired.”

“I’ll bring her up first,” Obi-Wan attempts to protest, but Anakin ignores him and shifts her out of his arms with ease of practice. “I don’t know how you do that,” Obi-Wan smiles softly as he watches him adjust one child on each hip and move to the stairs.

“It’s my workout. Got to maintain my dad bod,” Anakin purses his lips in an air kiss as he walks away.

“Oh love, you do not have a dad bod,” Obi-Wan corrects, mostly to himself. Quinlan snorts and scoops up the cat as he plops down on the couch with a scrutinizing look. “Go on then,” Obi-Wan sighs, sinking down with exhaustion. “Get on with it.” He figures he’d rather just get the inquisition over with, he wants to get upstairs to bed. To Anakin.

“Come on Obes, don’t be like that. You look like you’ve been on a bender.”

“I was not,” Obi-Wan snaps, his eyes flashing. “And I’m alright, Quinlan, just exhausted. Thank you for looking in on Boga.”

Quin narrows his eyes. “Why did he ask me?”

“Hmm?” Obi-Wan asks distractedly as Boga lands in his lap and he pets her absently behind the ears glancing wistfully at the stairway.

“Why did your boy toy, who avoids contact with me at all costs, craft a cryptic message worthy of the CIA to ask me to take care of your cat? It’s not like you to take off on an unplanned camping trip. And you just returned in separate vehicles looking like you’ve come home from war. ”

Obi-Wan holds the cat to his chest gently in stark contrast to the rock hard stare he turns onto Quinlan. “He is NOT my boy toy.” He grits his teeth and seems unwilling to address the rest of his friend’s astute observations.

Quin seems to pick up as much and softens his stance. “I just want to make sure you’re alright.”

“Yes! Your concern is noted, but I can take care of myself, thank you. Secondly, I am fine. Just very tired at the moment.”

“Okay, okay, I can take a hint,” Quin rolls his eyes as he makes for the door.

Obi-Wan snorts in disagreement. “That would be a first” and

“That reminds me: I’m pretty sure you guys owe me a favor now so I’ll let you know when I’m ready to cash in on that: I have a couple of ideas in mind -“

“Goodnight, Quinlan!” Obi-Wan shoves him toward the door without any heat behind it. He’s just glad he can finally head upstairs to join Anakin. He doubts he would have slept very well the last few nights by himself, even if it hadn’t been for the mess of emotions that was absolutely impossible to keep at bay in the quiet of night; he’s become too used to sleeping with the weight of Anakin in his arms, snoring lightly into his chest.

Boga leaps out of his arms when he peeks into Leia’s room, a relief because he doesn’t know that Anakin would tolerate anything coming in between the two of them in bed this evening. He spends a few minutes lingering in each room, readjusting blankets and watching the rise and fall of chests through peaceful rest.

He’s overwhelmed with the realization that he could have lost this. All of this. He’s not sure at what point after seeing Anakin breathless and on his knees at Rex’s garage, red faced and stammering and perfectly disheveled, he started to imagine a future where he might not just find love but a whole family.

He can’t resist the pull of Anakin any longer. He enters the bedroom and immediately wraps the younger man in his arms. It would seem Anakin had face planted onto the bed directly after his shower, his hair and upper body soaking Obi-Wan’s clothes, his hips still wrapped in a towel. “Ugh, love, you didn’t dry off. You’ll get the pillows wet.” Obi-Wan complains without moving away, in fact, he hugs the wet body to his side even tighter.

“Too tired,” Anakin mumbles into the mattress. He lets out a small whine of protest, still unmoving, when Obi-Wan presses a chaste kiss to a damp shoulder and eases off the bed. He returns only moments later with sleep pants, which he maneuvers onto a supremely unhelpful Anakin after freeing him of the towel and gently patting him dry.

“I try to avoid saying this as a matter of policy, but Quinlan was right. You look terrible,” Obi-Wan murmurs, taking in the bags under Anakin’s eyes as he rolls him onto the pillow. Anakin spares a critical glance that lets Obi-Wan know he hasn’t missed the swollen eyes, gaunt cheeks, and unkempt hair and beard on the face looking down with him in concern.

“ ‘M better already,” Anakin slurs sleepily, and Obi-Wan didn’t think his heart could melt any further until an arm reached up for him. “Hold me tonight?” There isn’t a single night that Anakin doesn’t end up chasing Obi-Wan across any space that manages to move between them during the night, closing the distance and tangling their bodies together even in his sleep, but the request is endearing and Obi-Wan is happy to oblige.

✩ WEEKLY FIC ROUND-UP ✩

All the fics I’ve read and really enjoyed in the past week-ish. Reminder: This list features any and all ratings and themes.

Danny Phantom

Space Case by TorScrawls

Danny runs into some astronauts from NASA’s lunar mission while trying to do his homework on the moon. This leads to new friends, a new job, and eventually to Danny finding a place for himself out among the stars.

Also, Danny gets to be a gremlin in space.

“Well,” Watkins drew the word out on a sigh as she slumped against the doorframe. “We didn’t cover this in training.”

Cecilia found her eyes trained on the spot where Danny had just walked through the wall. Like a— “Is the moon haunted?!”

Watkins was silent for a long while, and when Cecilia finally managed to tear her eyes away from the wall and look at her colleague, she found her frowning at the com. "…Who's going to tell the commander?"

Emergency Contact by lexosaurus

When William Lancer answered the phone that day, little did he know that he would go from an average literature teacher and cat-dad to now the emergency foster parent for a very injured teenage ghost.

Life had a funny way of being unpredictable like that.

Tutoring Phantom by lexosaurus

It was funny. A year ago Dash was all but praying for Fenton to shut up, but now he would do anything to hear him speak.

Stranger Things

Dustin Henderson and the Lovebirds by pukner (+ podfic)

"You look like you've been mauled, dude," says Lucas. Then, after a beat, "Oh, ew."

"What the fuck," says Dustin, cottoning on, "What the fuck. This is hell, you didn't."

"Oh, I did," says Eddie, with the air of someone who's won something. He looks like the proverbial cat who's got the canary, if the canary wore polos and listened to Blondie.

"Shut up," Steve mutters, flushing as he seems to register what's happening, "Guys, it's not what you--uh, this isn't what it looks like-"

Or, five times Dustin Henderson was subjected to Eddie Munson being gross and sappy and in love with Steve Harrington, and one time Steve didn't even have to be there.

Clone Wars

I will look for you every time by unintentionalgenius

The soldier - barely more than a boy - swallows hard.

“And you’re here reporting to me because someone else is manning the rescue mission.” They’re both silent for a long moment. “Correct?”

Boil begins gingerly. She has the sense she is being handled. “The whole system went. There’s no way to get back down there. I think it was a bomb, planned. And - “ he hesitates, eyeing her face. “And no one could have survived that, sir. Not even one of us.”

“That’s impossible,” she says, instinctively.

this guy fucking sucks by Sunfl0wer78

Anakin didn't get it. The 501st was cool. Rex was great. So why was Commander Cody so... boring? And why was Obi-wan was obsessed with him? Everyone loved him. For what fucking reason.

Anakin doesn't understand Cody. Cody hates him. Maybe.

A Minor Detail by wanderingjedihistorian (RangerJedi67)

"I do apologize for the oversight,” Obi-Wan said. “I’m from a planet called Stewjon. While we look near human, we are all shapeshifters. While this is truly a minor detail in the grand scheme of things…” Cody stared incredulously. “Permission to speak freely, sir?” “Always, Cody, you know that,” he replied. “Sir, your ability to change into an otter does not qualify as a minor detail."

or, 3 times Obi-Wan's otter form came in handy on a mission and 1 time it was used for fun.

[tennessoui]

your murder mystery au gsksgsksgs perfection but i imagine something like this

windu: so you were… praying… all night long

obi-wan: yes

anakin: i did called for God several times

gsksgsksgs sorry for the blasphemy (?)

(this murder mystery au)

honestly imagine like the climax of the au is that windu and tano have all the suspects neatly lined up and the truth comes out that anakin and obi-wan were sleeping with each other and have been for ages, but they also get into a bitchy little fight because windu makes a snarky aside about one of them screaming so loudly and being so distracted with their praying that they were terrible witnesses anyway and he could really have them drawn up on obstruction of justice charges because of the amount of effort they've spent investigating their fuckin affair when they could be investigating a fucking murder

and so anakin and obi-wan start bitching at each other about who was screaming/moaning the loudest and anakin is like 'you make this high pitched whine when you come, it's like someone's stepped on a cat's tail'

and obi-wan is like 'you think that's a high pitched noise, you should hear yourself when you come, it sounds like a soprano hitting the highest note of a hymn in a boy's church choir'

and they go back and forth until one of the other guests is like 'you're BOTH terrible but also it's definitely father kenobi that makes that noise because widow skywalker kept shouting his name and he couldn't have done both!'

and anakin is like 'THANK YOU!!!'

and detective windu is like....wait....how do YOU know what they sounded like? you previously said you were in bed asleep the entire night, not walking past the chapel where father kenobi and widow skywalker were.....praying.....'

#asks #murder mystery au #very 'what were you doing at the witches sacrament' etc #obikin

My Thoughts on Parts 1 and 2 of Ahsoka - A Discussion Post

Ahsoka premiered on Tuesday at 6 PM PT, and fans were raving about it. Fans of Star Wars: Rebels were overjoyed with the content they got. Let's dive into this week's premiere episodes, MASTER AND APPRENTICE, and TOIL AND TROUBLE.

SPOILERS AHEAD IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE SERIES YET!

I'm starting off with the loth-cat because this little thing is just so ADORABLE. Sabine takes care of it so well, and it loves her. It must be protected. The cat will keep you company as you read.

The series started with a movie-like introduction, words scrolling up for us to read. I liked how they did that and gave us a little preview to what happened before we started off. Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati arrived and landed in a New Republic ship, attacking the crew with their lightsabers and rescuing Morgan Elsbeth, who was held prisoner on that ship. Baylan had at one point talked about childrens' tales in the Jedi Order, which indicates he was a former Jedi, Not much is yet known about his past, but we do know from the trailer that he had known Anakin Skywalker.

Later, Morgan revealed herself to be a Nightsister of Dathomir, which is interesting as she talks about her past. She had used Nightsister magick herself after she obtained the map, which amazed me. I really want to know more about Morgan's history as a Nightsister. The three are ready to rise to power and locate Grand Admiral Thrawn, wherever he could be.

Ahsoka Tano is first seen at the remains of a Nightsister Temple. The details of the Temple got my curiosity peaked, and it's interesting to see more of Nightsister culture.

Huyang, an ancient droid who used to live in the Jedi Temple and helped younglings build their lightsabers, is Ahsoka's companion as he helps her escape the droid attack. I love how Huyang is here with Ahsoka and giving her and Sabine advice, but it still intrigues me on how he is here. What happened to him when the Jedi Order was taken down? How and when did Ahsoka find him? I'm still researching about it myself, but I'd love it if anyone could share some sources.

Moving on to Lothal. This beautiful planet that was once ruled by the Empire in darkness now shines brightly under its sun, the loth-cats running in the fields freely. I really wish Ezra could have been here to see his home liberated and shining after the fall of the Empire. The day he comes back, he'll love it.

We got to see Ryder Azadi in live-action with his original voice actor (Clancy Brown) speaking to the crowds of Lothal. He stands in front of the iconic mural last seen in the finale of Star Wars: Rebels, depicting the Ghost Crew, the heroes of Lothal. The mural is on public display for everyone to see.The day celebrates the liberation of Lothal and Ezra Bridger's sacrifice. Alongside him, Jai Kell appears, who is now a Senator of Lothal. I loved these cameos, it got my Rebels heart screaming.

Sabine Wren was announced at the event to speak to the public, but she was a no-show. Sabine raced away with her speeder, and HER SOUNDTRACK? That needs to be out there now. No one can stop this girl. I love how Natasha Liu Bordizzo portrays Sabine, she really captures Sabine's stubborness and strength.

Sabine has added her artistic touch everywhere she has been; from the tower, Ahsoka's ship, her helmets, and everything. I love the little drawings of Loth-cats she's done. I loved the detail of her chipped nail polish. When she brought her armor out again, I loved that she added a Purgill on one piece, as memory.

When Sabine had turned on Ezra's message for her, I was both screaming and trying not to tear up. Eman Esfandi does such a good job portraying the character, and it's been so long since we've heard Ezra talk on screen. (I want the blueberry boi home now.) He had called Sabine a "sister", which I thought was adorable. Sabine smiled to herself hearing it.

(I know that some Sabezra shippers are a bit upset over it. I see them both ways, and I'm fine with whichever direction they go, and I like to imagine them either way as an alternate universe thing for the fun of it.)

Sabine had taken the map ball from Ahsoka even though she had told her not to (where do you think she got that, Ahsoka?), and managed to open it. Shin Hati had been sent by Baylan to go find the map, in which she succeeded in obtaining. Sabine quickly grabbed Ezra's lightsaber to fight against her. I find it interesting how she had made her own modifications to it but it is still Ezra's lightsaber, despite Huyang saying it is hers now. Shin and Sabine engaged in a heated fight, ending with Shin impaling Sabine and taking the map.

Huyang talks to Sabine at an infirmary on Lothal. As she recovers from her impale wound, Huyang calls Ezra's lightsaber hers and discusses Sabine's journey as a Padawan. I think it was confirmed that she was not Force-Sensitive, but I see some articles saying that she is, but she is weak in her abilities. I'm still a little confused, and I think she maybe is Force-Sensitive but doesn't fully have the ability like other Jedi, but Sabine has potential with her own talents and as a Mandalorian, as we know from seeing her in Rebels.

The duo of Hera and Chopper is always so fun to watch. I like how Mary Elizabeth Winstead embodies the character of Hera, and how she worries for Ezra. Once Ahsoka had returned with the map ball, hope grew in her that this could be a chance to find him. She has never stopped being the courageous fighter she is.

Chopper is himself, of course. And he's everything we love. During mid-battle, Chopper argues with Hera, most likely asking, "Hera, did you go through my stuff?" I love his energy and attitude, it's so funny and loveable.

Marrok was the name given to this Inquisitor before the series had released. There were many theories surrounding this inquisitor potentially being Ezra, but thankfully it's not. (Hopefully.) The character is said to be the very last Inquisitor, and has a mysterious background, Hopefully we can learn more about him.

Sabine is ready to return as Ahsoka's padawan, coming back to her signature short haircuits and rocking her Mandalorian armor. She visits the mural, tapping Ezra's face and looking at the mural with hope before departing Lothal with Ahsoka, ready to get the map back and find Ezra and Thrawn.

The massive structure seen being built towards the end of the second episode is said to be called the Eye of Sion. Morgan oversees it's construction, and I have heard it's something that will help bring Thrawn back. There are theories surrounding it regarding a Sith lord, but I'm still doing my research and looking up things. It'll be interesting to see more of what this is about.

Anyways, the premiere episodes of Ahsoka were a blast to watch. I'm excited for the next episodes, and I hope to learn more about Sabine's journey as a Padawan. (And Ezra better be home soon.) I also hope Zeb and Kallus show up soon, and Jacen Syndulla has to make an appearance. I also hope the loth-wolves would show up, that would be fun. But the journey has just begun.

WIP Wednesday

wait fuck I just remembered i do have something! I was trying to write some PWP and failed spectacularly. Here's a little piece of something that currently has zero smut at all

TW: incest (not yet but that's where it's leading), mpreg mentions, mommywan

Obi-Wan’s son is beautiful. And he’s not just saying that because Anakin is his son. He has a mop of blond hair as bright as a star, and a smile just as brilliant. His chubby cheeks still fit perfectly in the palms of Obi-Wan’s hands, and eyes a shade of blue-green-grey that Obi-Wan can never quite decide whether they look like a storm, the sea, or some far-off nebula that no artist could ever capture the depth of.

More even than in appearance, Anakin is beautiful in nature and in spirit. He is kind, and would never hurt a soul. Not the bugs in their garden, nor the poor creatures their resident tooka cat drags in with a half a foot already in the grave until Anakin nurses them back to health. He says hello to every person they meet on their trips into the city, and knows nothing of the danger that lurks nearly everywhere in the galaxy. That is the benefit to growing up on their remote homestead on a backwater planet like Stewjon rather than a crowded place like Coruscant.

His son is beautiful and kind, and has lived a very peaceful life in the twelve years since the unusual circumstances of his birth.

But there’s something in his eyes, something dark and wild and restless. Something that had no place lurking in the eyes of an innocent little boy. He dismisses it time and time again as nothing more than a trick of the light or a figment of his imagination, yet still it returns. When Obi-Wan tends to the vegetables and stops to wipe his brow clear of sweat, he’ll find his son staring at him with large, unblinking eyes. When Obi-Wan leaves the room for a moment to fetch a pot or a brush or the datapad from his bedside table, Anakin will follow, never once letting Obi-Wan leave his sight.

The attention doesn’t unnerve him. There’s only so much to do in the middle of nowhere with a spotty connection to the HoloNet and no other children his age within a day’s walk. And his son could never do anything to truly upset him. But whatever it is that hides behind Anakin’s eyes scares Obi-Wan senselessly.

~

“Mama!” Anakin bellows out, disturbing the quiet of the early afternoon.

Obi-Wan promptly ignores him. He’d sent the boy out to tend to their growing nerf herd, an onerous task that was likely to have him coming back covered in mud and who knew what else. It’s not a punishment for Anakin, who will happily strip down outside the barn and wash himself with a hose, but if he’s calling for help now, it just means he wants attention.

He always wants attention. But Obi-Wan is busy trying to fix up the broken-down speeder he haggled for several seasons back. He can’t afford a working one, not with several hungry mouths to feed, but with spare parts hard to come by and his mechanical knowledge subpar at best, it might take another season or two before he can finally make use of it and save himself the entire day it takes to walk into town.

And he won’t be fixing anything if he attends to every one of Anakin’s whims.

Ahsoka 1x01 1x02 Thoughts/Questions

Spoilers for Ahsoka of course, and spoilers for Star Wars Rebels.

WHAT IS SABINE’S CAT’S NAME???? This is unironically my number one question. What if she named it Ezra.

Where is Jacen? My broccoli boy 💚

Wtf is up with Morgan Elsbeth being a nightsister? She’s very clearly human and not the same species as Talzin, Ventress, and Merrin, etc. Is Dave bringing back the concept of a group of human Nightsisters from the EU? (In which case, I’d like to see Teneniel Djo please.) Morgan says she’s a “descendant of the witches of Dathomir,” does that mean she could be part Nightsister but mostly human? Worth noting she is clearly able to do at least a bit of Nightsister magick in the scene with the map- she summons green smoke while opening it. Why the inconsistency in species? It seems silly to suddenly have a human Nightsister character when it’s needlessly confusing.

Also, the instant she said she was a Nightsister and a survivor I was like “who does she think she is ripping off Merrin like this?!” I will not tolerate this dollar store knockoff wannabe.

Update: checked the wiki and apparently there were a few small human Nightsister clans (the Singing Mountain clan is apparently still canon!), but mostly it was the big Dathomirian Nightsister clan led by Mother Talzin. Morgan could be from one of the smaller human clans. I think she just feels annoying to me because it’s like someone saw how cool Merrin is, thought she’d be a good villain for this, and then took the character concept wholesale for a piece of Star Wars media that’s more mainstream, but didn’t put in the work so it falls flat. And then her being human just makes it weirder. I wonder who made the decision to use the Nightsisters for this storyline, because doesn’t… fit. Even Morgan’s name is odd. Just feels like no effort was put into the character.

How did Ahsoka find Huyang? I’m so curious when and how this happened. I’m really happy to see him in this though, I loved him in Clone Wars.

Ahsoka can do psychometry now! Can we please get some canon Ahsoka and Cal Kestis interactions? Rebellion era would probably be best but I’m not picky. Obviously Cal’s abilities in that area are a lot stronger, but it’s nice he’s not alone and it’d be great to see them interact. They’re almost the same age, but just far enough apart that their experiences since Order 66 have been radically different.

Mando/Din spending seasons raising a Jedi foundling and Ahsoka taking on a non-Force-sensitive Mandalorian as a padawan is so funny to me. The irony of the inverse.

It’s also the perfect continuation of the disaster lineage attitude imo. Obi-Wan “I’ll train the kid you all say is too old to train” Kenobi, then Anakin and Ahsoka’s… you know, Anakin and Ahsoka-ing, and now Ahsoka’s like “I’ll take a regular non-Force-Sensitive person as a padawan.”

Merrin and Sabine would get along, I think.

Sabine being like 30 and still acting exactly like a rebellious teenager feels like a cry for help to me. :( I’m glad Hera seems to have her back, and it’s good that she has a cat, but I’m worried about her. It makes sense, but gosh poor Sabine. I’m sensing depression. She’s had such a tough life and a tough time with the concept of family, it feels like losing Ezra was the last straw for her emotionally.

Actually, where is Sabine’s biological family? Are Ursa, Tristan, and Alrich okay? Or did they not survive the Mandalorian Purge? (God no I WILL cry. Also @ Dave where is Korkie, why is Bo-Katan calling herself the last Kryze.)

So wait, the rest of the crew has spent 15 years thinking Ezra’s dead?? He said to come find him! I always felt like he was pretty clear he wasn’t dying when he pulled his purrgil stunt. Did they all just turn pessimistic and lose hope? That’s so sad.

I actually really love Sabine kind of being the Republic’s version of Thrawn as an expert art analyst. Continues the Sabine/Thrawn contrast Rebels started where Thrawn analyzes art in a more academic fashion and treats the culture it came from as a curiosity- he’s very into cultural appropriation!!- while Sabine makes her own art and is more capable of stepping into other people’s shoes to appreciate their art.

Ahsoka refusing to train Sabine because she’s too busy being sad and lonely, and Sabine refusing to talk to Ahsoka or train (or give speeches) because she’s too busy being sad and lonely. This is so sad and I want to hug them both.

It works because we have a new actress playing Ahsoka, but I’m so curious what this would have been like animated. Ahsoka feels similar enough to herself but very different, because she’s in such a different place emotionally, and I’m curious how this would’ve felt in animation with Ashley doing the voice.

There were a few scenes where I felt like I was watching a live action Rebels episode and it was the best! The entire sequence with Sabine on the hover bike getting away from her own New Republic squad lol, Hera in the Phantom with Chopper chasing after the ship and planting the tracker. Chopper not being able to find the tracker until Hera told him where it was felt SPOT ON.

The T-6 actually looks pretty roomy and comfortable so far. Like, not the best living situation, but it looks way bigger than the Falcon! Heck, it looks bigger than Ezra’s tower that Sabine’s living in.

That said, Ahsoka having not had a real home since leaving the Jedi Temple is killing me. She really has some abandonment/attachment/commitment issues she needs to work on. Extremely understandable issues given what happened, but it’s like after the end of Rebels she just… quit. Maybe finding out Kanan was gone and then coming back to find Ezra gone was the last straw for her.

I also feel like her giving up on Sabine’s training was because of how her own training ended and Anakin’s fall shortly after. She doesn’t feel capable of dealing with the feelings stirred up by having a student. So she just doesn’t.

Sabine’s collecting little brothers. :) Tristan, Ezra, and Jacen.

I yelled at Senator Jai Kell!!! Good for him!!!

Had a watch party with my friends for this and we all screamed the instant Chopper showed up!! And here I was thinking maybe he was off babysitting Jacen.

What in the world is with the map showing another galaxy?? Yuuzhan Vong vibes. (The way they were almost canon because we were supposed to get a Clone Wars episode with them… :’( )

Why DO the Nightsisters have a map to another galaxy? Didn’t they mostly stay on Dathomir? I can buy them having outposts like the ruins where Ahsoka found the map in an era when they left the planet more, but a map to whole other galaxy seems a bit off. Space exploration on that scale doesn’t seem like something they would do. I wonder if maybe the map is a relic from someone else that they picked up. I like the Rakata theory I saw floated by someone. I could see the Nightsisters picking up a Rakatan map. Those guys left random stuff everywhere iirc.

Does the Eye of Sion have anything to do with Darth Sion? (Of KOTOR 2 fame)

WHERE IS MORAI??? This is a really big question for me!!

Also wondering where Ahsoka’s Gandalf the White outfit is? Guessing she won’t get it until the end of the show. She has to go through her journey first. I wonder if the if it’ll mirror the Topps cards Filoni did after Twilight of the Apprentice at all.

It’s really sad to me that this show is coming out during the strike, because I really need Filoni commentary on things. Actor commentary would be great as well. This is ridiculous, the studios need to pay the people who make things a fair wage.

Shoutout to Natasha Liu Bordizzo’s portrayal of Sabine so far. She feels JUST like Sabine and it’s great. We haven’t really seen enough of Hera yet for me to comment on Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s acting. (It was so weird seeing Hera be taller than Ahsoka though lol.) And Sabine had much more of an arc in these two episodes than Ahsoka did so I can’t really comment on Rosario’s Ahsoka either. Will say she’s been excellent so far, especially in her first appearance in the Mandalorian episode. Looking forward to seeing more!

Cyare Verd *Beloved Warrior*

Chapter Six

We entered on the cat walk at the front of the room where we could get a good view of the training area. The 501st is lined up at the front just below us, Echo paces back and forth infront of them.

"Would you stop pacing you di'kut (idiot), you're killing the mood" Fives says.

If looks could kill Fives would be dead.

"Alright gentlemen, you know the drill. Offensive positions!" Rex says through the comm.

The squad scaters doing as their Captain asks. He then gives Echo specific directives.

"Copy that sir!" I know that's Echo's voice. In the short amount of time I've spent with them, I can already tell the differences in their voices. Slight. But if your listening you can tell.

With that Rex nods at Anakin who begins the simulation.

I watch as they squad moves like a well oiled machine. Flanking left and right to take out the droids. Echo barking directions.

"I have to admit, Echo's pretty good at this" I say.

Rex smiles, "Taught myself. Might sound funny but it comes more naturally to him than some of the others".

Ahsoka snickers "You mean Fives".

At that Rex deep signs. I giggle. "He's got some...growing up to do still" Rex says.

"He must have done something impressive to each ARC Trooper" I say looking up at Rex.

He looks over at me and before he can say anything the comms filled with yelling from the squad.

"We're pinned down!" Jesse's stress quite evident.

"Hardcase lay down some cover fire" says Echo.

"Tup and I can flank left side while you guys cut them off from the other" says Fives.

They nod to one another and immediately jump to action helping their fellow members pinned down. They were then able to continue on and over take "the castle", they called it.

I leaned past Rex briefly brushing his arm. I looked up and we locked eyes holding it for a second. "Ni ceta (sorry)" I say blushing and feeling electricity run up my arm into my core.

I wonder if he felt that too?

Rex doesn't say a word and I continue to reach for the button to speak into the comm system. "Nicely done boys" I say with a smile.

Echo proudly turns around and gives a playful bow.

"You didn't do it alone you di'kut" Fives chimes in.

Echo rolls his eyes.

"Now that you did that with blasters-" I start with a smug look toward Anakin and Ahsoka who look confused. "My turn, but without blasters." I say unholdersing my dual pistols and laying them on the desk.

"Hand-to-hand?" Rex asks confused. 

"It's not so much hand-to-hand, more like not relying so much on those Deeces and grenades" I say pointing to his kama where his pistols are holstered.

The squad down below begins to whisper. Fives looks up "Psh! We can do it! I'm up for the challenge!" He says cockily.

"As fun as that sounds....I'm not treating you all for training injurys..." Kix chimes in "Besides we haven't really trained for that".

"Yeah I gotta agree with Kix" Echo says.

"Aw come on" says Hardcase.

"Well boys I've got good news for you...that's why they called me here!" I say proudly.

There's a series of enthusiastic whoops and hollers over the comms. Rex smiles and shakes his head.

Anakin's comm starts going off like someone is trying to make a call and he steps out to answer it before popping back in, "It's Master Kenobi, he wants us back at the temple" he says to Ahoska.

"Aw come on this was just getting interesting!" She says.

"Some other time Snips we gotta go" Anakin scolds her.

"Sometime I promise I'll teach you some of what I know" I smile at Ahsoka who seems pleased with that answer. With that, they head out leaving me and Rex together.

"Run the same scenario if you would Captain" I say giving a semi flirty smile.

He looks at me confused "again?" He asks.

I smile "yes but this time for me".

"Uh you sure? This exercise is meant for at least a squad."

He sounds concerned...it's cute

"I'll be fine Rex trust me but it's cute your concerned" I say with a wink.

He blushes and I head out the door down towards the floor of the training area.

"You boys are dismissed. Head up to the cat walk" I say very matter of factly.

"What are you gunna do?" Echo asks concerned.

"It's my turn to show you a preview of  my combat training" I reply sliding my helmet on. The squad heads out doing as they were told.

"Are you sure about this?" I hear Rex's voice in my comms.

I turn around and look up to the cat walk. "Yes Rex I'm sure. Trust me" I say putting emphasis on the last part.

"Alright. Offensive position." He says before engaging a similar sequence.

Immediately 3 walls shoot up around me so I can't see the droids enter and the type of barriers the sequence brought up.

Deep breath...focus...

I close my eyes and slow my breathing before the 3 walls come down around me. I immediately jump into battle mode. Blaster fire (non-leathal or course) Flys over my head as I duck behind my first cover - half wall go figure - as I try to figure out my first move. I peek over the wall to get an idea of where the droids are. Two off to my right and one to my left.... If I can distract them for a moment I can slide behind them and use my whip cord to bring the pair down before they notice...that just leaves the 3rd...

I pull one of my knives from my boot and throw it towards the Droid on the left. While the other 2 were distracted I slide behind them using my whip cord to tangle their legs, causing them to drop their blasters and come crashing to the ground. I hopped on top of the pile they made and hit their disable button. I could hear a series of whoops and hollers in my buy'ce comm. I couldn't help but smirk.

With that 4 more droids made their presence known.... I grabbed my knife out of one of the droids and ran for more cover.

Reaching into my other boot and removing another knife, I simultaneously threw them - one in each hand - I simultaneously throw them at two of the droids and they fall to the ground.

Two left and I should be almost to the end...

Two more droids came out of no where behind me

Osik...

I ran towards one of the droids - blaster fire zinging by - in an attempt to get to it's disable button. It raises its blaster and begins to shoot. I raise my arms infront of my face using my beskar on my forearms to deflect the shots. This Droid was closer to the wall so as I made my approach I grabbed the blaster the Droid was holding, while running up the side of the wall- spinning the Droid around- and hitting the disable button.

Using my whipcord, I grabbed the blaster from the other droid and made my way over to it, jumping on it's shoulders and hitting the disable button.

The other 2 droids were getting close. It was time to deal with them and then I'd have 'the castle'.

A, V, and X Pls 😊

A - Your current OTP(s)/OT3(s)/OTX(s)

not to be Like This, but scarletnovadevil (rich/matt/wanda), the ot3 i invented, has completely taken over my life. i will shout from the rooftops every single day about how these characters all really vibe so well together. it's about the shared experiences of trauma, mental illness, and self-loathing, but realizing that good things are still out there for you if you're willing to work at them — and if you have supportive, understanding, and loving people by your side.

V - 3 OTPs from 3 different fandoms

neo/trinity — the matrix series

katniss/peeta — the hunger games

marianne/heloise — portrait of a lady on fire, because this absolutely counts

X - top 5-10 characters who are yoUR PRECIOUS BABIES AND YOU WILL DIE DEFENDING THEM

ok i will give a smattering assortment of characters here, because i have a lot of favorites:

katniss everdeen (thg) — i don't see it as much anymore, but people were really out here coming for a traumatized teenage girl and calling her a sociopath because she was a lil blunt and not super nice, like... WHAT. anyway, katniss my best girl. named my cat after you. you're the best always. love how she was messy and real and not at all like an archetypal protagonist.

anakin skywalker (star wars) — ok. i know. ok. yes. he's done the war crimes and made horrible decisions in his life and i'm not going to excuse any of that. but the jedi were emotionally invalidating assholes and he was immensely traumatized and taken advantage of by an emotionally manipulative prick. i will always stand by anakin bye

sherlock holmes was one of my og blorbos and while he doesn't need defending necessarily, christ did the bbc show give people a weird perception of him. he's just a funky little weirdo who likes solving puzzles and hates cops, why are you all being weird

clark kent/superman — i have been constantly having to fend off the "lol he's boring" allegations for him ever since i can remember. sorry if you're so unimaginative that you cannot possibly think that a guy who's just genuinely a good person and uses his power to help people is interesting. i feel sorry for your life. (note, this also applies to other characters who fit into this general category of character, especially my beloved boy rich rider, who also has to fend off the "lol boring" allegations from time to time. BEGONE)

i feel like pretty much any comic book woman who does something out of line needs defending, but i'll use this space to defend some of my faves. so elektra likes a little murder, so what, she's sexy for that and i support women's rights as well as women's wrongs. if anyone comes for gamora it's on sight. i will also always stand up for wanda because everything she's done is justified, and it's not her fault that everyone in her life has completely failed her when she needed help. like, honestly fuck both the avengers and the x-men lol

as a bonus this needs to be said — i'm peter quill's defense lawyer, even for the war crimes 616 peter committed, but also, y'all. y'all. mcu peter quill didn't do anything wrong in infinity war, you're just dumb for still arguing about this FIVE YEARS LATER.

also for the holy love of god are peter parker and matt murdock horribly misinterpreted by fans, like, always. bad takes abound. i'm here to defend the honor of y'all's characterization as well as your bisexuality.

Somebody Call 911

Written for Spidermonth2023 Prompt: Swinging into Action Fandom: MCU Characters: General Avengers, Peter, Ned, and Pepper Words: 676 Summary: how can one normal movie night start a fire?

“Robbery on Tenth Street,” Ned’s voice came through the headphone as Peter swung through New York, quickly finding the culprit and webbing him up, leaving him for the police to find.

“Nelson’s cat is stuck in the tree again.”

“I’m on it,” Peter swung through, quickly grabbing the tiny kitten, and handing it to the small child of ten.

“Thanks, Spiderman!” the kid smiled, missing his front tooth, happily hugging his kitten.

“It’s not a problem Nelson. Just try to keep the cat inside,” Peter smiled at him, shooting a web to take him away.

He helped more citizens throughout the day before finally swinging into the Avenger’s tower, and landing in his room.

“And he makes a perfect landing!” Ned cheered as Peter took his mask off, giving his best friend a high five.

“Thanks for helping today,” Peter smiled as he started to change out of his outfit.

“He man. You know I’m always here for you,” Ned smiled, turning back in his chair to turn off the things he no longer needed.

“Yeah, but now that I’m done with Patrol we can actually hang out! Want to watch Clone Wars?”

“We should watch the trilogy.”

“We watched the trilogy over and over again, but we’re not caught up with Clone Wars. Don’t you want to know about Anakin?” Peter asked as the two walked out of his room towards the living room.

“Dude he’s like the main villain. I’d rather watch Luke,” Ned argued back.

“Hey, Underroos and Led. Whatcha up to?” Tony asked, seeing his favorite intern and his best friend.

“Tony, what should we watch Anakin’s backstory or Luke’s journey?” Peter asked, sitting down on the couch.

“I keep telling Peter that nothing can beat Luke’s story but he’s caught up with finishing Clone Wars,” Ned explained to fill in the plot hole that Tony was missing.

“I’m not sure. Why not Spock?”

“Mister Stark you did not just bring Star Trek into a Star Wars conversation?” Peter glared.

“Ouch, that bought me back to Mister!?” Tony asked, holding his heart in fake pain.

“Ignore him, boys. Why don’t you watch a new movie that neither of you have watched? Maybe discover something new?” Pepper suggested, bringing a few bowls of popcorn with her.

“Guess we could do that?” Peter and Ned shrugged before swiping through the multiple streaming services that are owned by the one and only Tony Stark.

“Oh, that’s a good one!” Tony said as he pointed to one of the suggestions on Disney.

“Bedknobs and Broomsticks?” Ned asked, looking at Peter as they both shrugged and put the movie on.

As the movie played the other Avengers came out of their rooms and hideouts to join the small family.

It was becoming a nice peaceful movie night. . .until Thor got up to get a snack.

“Does anyone smell something burning?” Tony asked, looking at his family and friends.

“Now that you mention it?” Steve added as alarms started blaring.

“And that’s the fire alarm,” Pepper groaned as the Avengers started to panic and run to the kitchen, sure enough, a small fire had started.

“Oh great,” the group thought at seeing Thor panicking.

Peter with no hesitation jumped in and shot his webs at the quickly growing fire, putting it completely out as Tony whipped out his phone to assure the fire department that there was no fire.

“Thank you oh great man of Spider! I tried to put it out with the water but it didn’t seem to work,” Thor patted Peter on the back proudly.

“Just maybe don’t cook anymore Thor,” Peter assured the god.

“You did good Pete,” Tony smiled at him, growling into the phone.

“Let’s get back to the movie,” Pepper smiled at the group, turning them around.

“That was so awesome!” Ned had stars in his eyes.

“I didn’t mean to. . .I just didn’t think,” Peter looked down.

“Don’t change the fact that it’s awesome Pete,” Ned bumped his shoulder, making his friend smile.

“Yeah,” Peter thought. “It was kinda awesome.”

Clone Wars Thanksgiving #2

Last year I wrote a Star Wars Thanksgiving story and since it’s Thanksgiving again (in the USA), I thought of doing it again. Thanksgiving is going to be at Cody & Obi Wan’s house again but it’s going to be different. They have a new house because of their growing family. Here’s what the house looked like last year. I will put the link to last year's Star Wars Thanksgiving down below after this story is done. For those who don’t know how I write, my stories are well….umm….think of things that are impossible in the Star Wars Au World/Clone Wars Au World. I have SO MANY ideas that I like to put in my stories that it takes longer for me to publish it. I’m still working on my SUPER LATE Clonetober Story from 2021 called Clonetober #27 Clone Medics and Low Supplies story. Also, I will put the spoilers in here from what I’m writing in the Clone Medic and Low Supplies story to those who are following me.

Cody and Obi Wan’s house is 4 floors (main, 2 upstairs, and basement), a BIG DINING AREA (great for Friends and Family over for the Holidays), a small dining area (perfect for the 2 of them), 5 ½  bathrooms, 6 bedrooms, a BIG MASTER BEDROOM for Cody and Obi Wan, a BIG KITCHEN, room for Obi Wan could relax (has a small indoor water fountain, a yoga mat for him to meditate, and flute music playing), a room for Cody Exercise Room, a BIG living room with reclining chairs and BIG FLAT SCREEN TV with a fireplace, and hidden library room just for Obi Wan. They also have a toy room so whenever Omega or any of their Friends and Family come stay over, they would have a room for the kids to play in.

Now that you see what was last year, here’s this year's house.

                               Cody & Obi Wan’s House

6 Floors (main, 2 upstairs, 2 downstairs, and a basement)

 BIGGER DINING AREA than last year.

A Medium Dining Area (perfect for the 3 of them)

6 ½  Bathrooms

7 Bedrooms (one bedroom is close to Cody & Obi Wan’s baby boy Oliver)

A BIGGER MASTER BEDROOM for Cody & Obi Wan (bedroom has a King Size bed, a BIGGER TV that is mounted above the Fireplace, 2 nightstands on each side of the bed, a writing desk, a BIGGER walk in closet, two sinks, a shower, Jacuzzi Tub (perfect when Obi Wan is stressed), a toilet (the main thing you need in a bathroom) a walk in shower that big enough for Cody & Obi Wan can take together, and big mirrors in front of the sinks.

A Guest Suite (this counts as one of the bedrooms)

A BIGGER KITCHEN for cooking for BIG Family gatherings (double oven, island with lots of storage space with bar stools on the other side, big sink, a walk in pantry, 2 separate fridge and freezer, 2 dishwashers, hanging kitchen self, lots of cabinets space, ice machine, coffee maker for when Fox stays over with his family, microwave, and plants that are sitting on the window ledge. 

A Room for Obi Wan so can relax in (the same small indoor water fountain that Obi Wan had in the last house, same yoga mat for him to mediate, same flute music playing, but he now has a small Japanese Bonsai Tree

A Room for Cody to Exercise room (weights, rubber flooring that they use in gyms, a drinking fountain, and a flat screen TV so he can watch his workout videos)

A Hidden pool that has a hot tub and a sauna 

A Hidden Library with more books for Obi Wan (but mostly for Obi Wan to hide in whenever he doesn’t want to deal with Anakin)

A BIGGER playroom for their son and for the others kids

A BIGGER living room with a BIGGER FLAT SCREEN TV

A Big backyard

2 Loth-Cats that are Obi Wan’s pets (white one is called Snow and the other one is dark yellow named Butterscotch) 

A Massiff named Hero (he gets along with the Loth-Cats) who is Cody’s pet

Now that you know the layout of the house, let me tell you who came to Cody & Obi Wan’s house for Thanksgiving and what they brought.

Hunter: Mash Potatoes

Wrecker: A Big Turkey (Cody made 2 last night with his family secret recipe but Obi Wan called Hunter if he could bring a turkey just in case they didn’t have enough for everyone who is coming)

Omega: Gravy

Echo: 2 Canned Cranberry Sauce

Crosshair: Turkey Stuffing

Tech: Their baby (I don’t know what the name is or what the gender is because the person who is writing Mpreg Tech story is @clonecest-writer   That person writes AMAZING Stories.)

Rex: 2 Canned Olives

Ahsoka: Green Beans Casserole Dish and a bottle of baby formula for Baby Jade (also the diaper bag)

Jasmine & Jasper: Hawaiian Rolls

Fox: Beer

Riyo: Homemade Pumpkin Pie

Fox Jr., Kyle, and Lily : Helped Daddy carries the drinks (except for the beer)

Boil: Veggie Tray

Waxer: Their Baby Boy

Numa: Her leftover Halloween Candy (what is left to give to her cousins)

Jesse: Cherry Pie, Apple Pie, Chocolate Pie (had Fives and Hardcase with bringing them in)

Kix: Had his hand full with holding the baby carrier with their baby girl….you will have to wait to see what the baby is named.

Qui-Gon Jinn: His famous Tea that he makes whenever Obi Wan gets stressed. Good thing he did because Obi Wan gets stressed whenever he has to throw a BIG DINNER for so many people.

Yoda & Yaddle: Frog Eye Salad (Not real frogs but the one with small acini di pepe which are tiny pasta, mandarin oranges, marshmallows, whip cream, and pineapple. This is a UTAH favorite side dish.)

Tup: Fives told him to bring “TUPperware” but brought 2 Yam Souffle (one glass pan has walnuts over the yams and the other one has toasted marshmallows)

Dogma: Didn’t want to come but was ordered to come from not Rex but Commander Cody told him that he had to come so Dogma helped Tup bring in the other Yam Souffle because it’s hard for ONE person to carry 2 HOT Yam Souffle pans.

Anakin: Arriving late as ALWAYS brings Ice Cream

Padmé: Green Beans Casserole Dish

Luke: He is all grown up in this story because….well…..you’ll see. (Leia is still a kid. I’ll probably mess everyone up in this story but this is my story and I can choose who I want and how old I want them to be.)

Leia: Her bag with her favorite BOY BAND Magazine to show Omega (this like well….umm…”Justin Bieber” Fans)

Shaaki & 99: Brought a couple of Bouquets to put on the tables.

Din Djarin (The Mando from The Mandalorian): Fruit Salad

Luke: Grogue aka Baby Yoda for some people who call him that

Now that everyone is here, let me tell you what happened. 

As the guests start to arrive at Cody & Obi Wan’s house, they are greeted by either Obi Wan who is wearing a “Kiss the Cook (Only If You Are Cody. Others Will Get Shot By Cody)” apron or Cody who is wearing a knitted Gray sweater with a pair of Jeans on. Cody will be trying to figure out what station the NFL Game is on so his Brothers and the other guests can enjoy it while they wait for the food to be ready to eat. Cody also shows the little ones where the playroom is so they can play. Cody & Obi Wan told the kids (whispered in their ears) that they have a XBox, Playstation, Nintendo Wii, and 3 VR Headsets for them to play with. The reason why Cody whispered that in the little one's ear is because if Fives, Hardcase, Wrecker, and Anakin found out, they would probably break it or won’t let the little ones play with it and those suckers AREN’T CHEAP. The reason why Cody & Obi Wan have 3 VR Headsets is because one is for Obi Wan to use for relaxing, one is for Cody to practice his combat skills, and the last one is so Rex & Cody can practice together with their combat skills. Obi Wan makes sure that they do it in Cody’s Exercise Room because they almost broke one of Obi Wan’s Japanese Tea Set that his master gave him for his Birthday.  

While some of the Adults were helping with the food, Ahsoka and the other female Moms (Riyo & Padmé) sat on the sofas talking to the other “New Moms” (Tech, Waxer, and Kix) on some new tricks to help them raise their kids. Din also joined them because he didn’t know if he was doing a great Father Figure for Grogu but Luke told him that he is an AMAZING Father and a Wonderful Husband.

Once the food was ready, Obi Wan showed the little ones where their table was that he set up just for them to eat at (Rex wished Fives and Hardcase were sitting at the kids table but then realized in his head that that would be a VERY BAD IDEA.). Cody gave the prayer to bless the food. Once he was done with the prayer, he asked the little one's parents/other adults to help the little one’s with dishing up their food then he told everyone to pass the food counter clockwise. This was a little confusing for Wrecker but he soon got the idea.

 When the littles ones were done eating, they went back into the playroom while the “ADULTS” kept on eating and talking. Once in a while the “PARENTS” would have to go check on how their kids were doing or have to step out to change their kids diapers. Some of the kids were getting tired and cranky that the adults would have to leave early but Cody & Obi Wan always made clean sheets and inflatable beds (with a pad on the beds/inflatable beds just in case one of them had an accident.) They even had a couple of little baby playpens for the babies to sleep in. Some of the Adults took naps with their childrens.

Cody & Obi Wan are always prepared (mostly Cody) when hosting a BIG FAMILY event. They would also have tupperware for the others to take food home so they can have leftovers which makes it easier for the women/the ones who cook for their families to have a break from cooking. Cody always goes on the Holonet (Amazon for some people) and buys a couple dozen tupperware sets to use for Thanksgiving to give to his Brothers and friends. He buys them before Thanksgiving or whenever there’s a sale going on.

 This year has been a great year for Cody & Obi Wan because of their wonderful friends and family who care about them (even though Anakin can be a pain in the neck), a brand new house, and their baby boy Oliver.

Thank you for reading this story. I hoped you liked it. I will get the next part of Clonetober #27 Clone Medics and Low Supplies soon. Also, here is the Thanksgiving story from last year.

[adriansboyfriend]

Some hc’s, I guess? Just random thoughts I've had about my pretty, space boyfriend that I wanted to put together.

• Bantering with Anakin, he'd pick me up with one arm and start carrying me around

“ I’m tired of your attitude.”

Obi-Wan notices him carrying me after an argument or whatever* “What are you doing with him?” Anakin: “Just taking my boyfriend for a stroll. Hope she’ll cool off.”

He gets tired of me, but secretly loves me

Totally gives me a hard time because he can

A lot of short jokes

We’re either causing trouble or I'm the only one with the working brain cell

Or he is, just depends on the day

*Struggling to pick Anakin up by his waist*: I caught one of those he/they’s

He's used to my shit

“Why am I dating her?” is usually his thought process

Calling him ‘pretty boy’ just to fluster him

Anakin would have the stupidest/cheesiest nicknames for me

Going around calling him ‘babygirl” and slapping his ass makes him bright red, but he likes it lol

Braiding his hair after a long day, in our shared quarters

Running my fingers through his curls

He’s like a big cat

Very touched starved

Always asking me to do his hair

#anakin skywalker #just a bunch of hc’s I guess?

[benthebeloved]

“Thank you! I’ll come by for the letter tomorrow!” He calls before the door shuts, quickly jogging over to Ida’s shop.

When the morning comes, I give Kix the letter with a smile and ask him to please find a way to sneak it on the boys' mission to the Outer Rim.

Dear Ben (and Anakin, it seems),

I heard about your mission!! I must admit it is rather stressful to see the news on such matters now, knowing we are friends. I am sorry about your friends, it saddens my heart to know that such good people were lost for such a cruel cause. Because so many clones come here, I have a mural outside on the wall of my store. For every clone that does not return, I paint a very tiny lantern. One day I am sure it will cover the entire front of my store. Kix paints the ones he loses personally. It’s only a tiny yellow square, so even someone as artistically challenged as him can do it.

I loved the photos!!!! And I loved the soup!! Thank you so much!! You know what’s rather funny about Anakin’s drawings? I caught myself in the crowd of one. I know because he captured my hand-sewn dress perfectly. I’ll be sure to give the trophy to Woyen the next time I see him! He’ll be so excited, you have no idea.

Yes her name is Ida! We’ve been friends since I ran away here when I was sixteen. She was eighteen at the time and took me in, fed me, let me stay and work until I earned enough to buy my own store just across the street. She’s very dear to me. We did the same for Seraph just last year after she wandered her way here from Tatooine. She’s an ex-slave and doesn’t speak Basic at all! Only Huttese and the slave language, she’s taught us all both.

Crosshair was a very slow process. He came in once for pencils for one minute, the next week it was two minutes, three after that and so on. We’re up to about four hours now, which I think really shows his growth. I’ve come to really love my time with him and he reminds me of what good sibling relationships should be.

I’ve sent my writings and drawings on how I made the rain system for Anakin! Let me know what he thinks, though I’m sure he’ll think of improvements, I’ve heard he’s quite logical in that way.

The fact that you called my cat a ‘chap’ made me laugh so hard I cried, so I’ve included a lovely little photo of him in a small cap and tie. He looks so cute. Midnight received two kisses, one from each of you, and he purred both times. He says hi.

Do not let Anakin tempt me because I might be the third biggest podracing fan of all time and his Boonta Cup win when he was NINE is literally my favorite race ever. I say third, though, because I will never beat Woyen and it sounds as though I wouldn’t beat Anakin, either.

I read what you said about bringing my letters on missions, so I’ve given this one to Kix to sneak on your mission with you. I hope you read it when you’re feeling down and need something to cheer you up.

I didn’t know how to send things that weren’t items that could bring a little comfort on a battlefield, so I’ve included some pages out of my sketchbook. Please enjoy the watercolors of my plants, my cat, my library, and my store. They’re little splices of my very ordinary life.

I wish you the best of luck (Do Jedi say that or should I wish you the Force’s protection?) and I hope you do not get hurt. Either of you.

If there is anything I can do for you, let me know!

Love,

Lili

P.S. For next time, do either you or Anakin have any food allergies?

In More Ways Than One, Part 3.5 - Bad Batch x F!Reader - Briefing

Summary: New mission, old friends.

Notes: This is mostly filler/build up for other chapters, but didn't feel like it fit in the upcoming Wrecker narrative. Cause Wrecker is next, not Crosshair. (sorry bout it). Also kind of a check to see who wants to be tagged in upcoming chapters for new followers- I don't know how to set up taglists. Yet. Enjoy!

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 3.5 Part 4 Part 4.5 Part 5 Part 5.5 Part 6 Part 6.5 Part 7 Part 8 Part 8.5 Part 9 Part 9.5 Part 10

Word count: 629

Rex watches as the Marauder touches down in Docking Bay 3 of the Star Destroyer Requiem. The latch opens with its usual hiss as the ramp settles almost directly in front of him. Tech was a good pilot like that.

Hunter walked out, quickly followed by Echo and Wrecker. Rex gripped each of their hands in greeting. “Good to see you boys. How was shore leave?”

Hunter smirked. “Very interesting. Always nice to get some real food, too.”

Rex chuckles. Anakin walks up behind his Captain, smiling in greeting.

“Sorry to call you off your shore leave, Sergeant, but you’re the best ones for this job.”

“It’s alright, sir, we were getting bored anyway. Hope you’ve got something good for us.”

The Jedi smirked, crossing his arms. “Only the best for you. You may even get to blow something up.”

“Oh YEAH!” Wrecker pumped his fist in the air.

Anakin glances up as Tech starts down the ramp, head down in his holopad. “Cody’s set up in the briefing room. We better get moving.” He turns to head out of the docking bay, squad in tow.

Tech pauses for a moment to greet Rex, a sign of his esteem before returning to his research and following the crew.

“Well look what the loth-cat dragged in.”

Rex looks back up the ramp to see you standing there, a big grin brightening your face.

His heart stops for a moment, like it always does when he sees you, but it quickly starts beating again. He’s used to it by now.

“Your majesty,” he grins, giving a small bow. “Thank you for gracing our ship with your presence.”

You pose for a moment before heading down the ramp with a chuckle. “I didn’t know we would be seeing you here! I’m glad though- it’s been too long since Anaxes.” You grip his forearm in greeting, secretly enjoying the small touch. “Are you the one briefing us today?”

“No, I’ve still got preparations to make here- wanted to see some familiar faces.” He glances down to your neck, seeing the tell-tale bruising peeking out from your blacks. His heart tenses a little, but only a little. He chuckles. “I see your shore leave treated you well.”

You feel your face burn a bit, but you can’t help the grin that creeps up. “You have no idea. Let’s catch up sometime while we’re here, yeah?” You walk backwards, heading towards the squad.

“As long as you bring the caf from that horde of yours.”

You laugh with a mini salute. “Deal.”

He watches you go with a small sigh in his chest, but no regrets.

“Disappointed?” He hears a slithery voice ask beside him. He looks over to see Crosshair standing next to him, staring after the retreating crew, toothpick in place.

“About what?”

Crosshair glances sideways at him before indicating with his chin. “Her.”

Rex debates denying it, pretending like he’s clueless to what he means- but the Sniper was smarter than that. “No. Sad, maybe, but satisfied. She deserves the best.” He smiles and looks over to the silent Sniper. “And I know her squad won’t let her settle for anything less.”

Crosshair smirks and nods his head. “Yes sir.” He moves to start after his squad.

Rex watches them for a moment before noticing a substantial amount of troopers in the area were all watching the 99, whispering amongst themselves.

“Crosshair.”

The Marksman turns back to look at him expectantly. Rex glances around to the whispering clones before looking back at him.

“Do I need to worry about that?”

Crosshair looks around to where the Captain had indicated, then grins with… satisfaction? “No sir,” came the chuckled reply. “We’ve got it under control.”

He turns and heads after the group.

I’m going to have to do these until they finish this dang castle, aren’t I? Favourite moments of Joe and Cleo’s paper model stream Part 4!

--

Cleo (after Zloyxp tried to raid her stream): You should be able to raid me Zloy. In case you’re wondering. You should be able to. If you cannot, well…Cam will check it out.

Joe: Yeah, you can turn off being raidable. But, Zloy, that makes me feel way better about you raiding me knowing you tried to raid Cleo and it failed. Thanks.

Cleo: *laughing*

Joe (bitter): Thanks a lot for that. My—my heart, uh, so full of so many things. Right now.

Cleo: *wheezing*

Zloyxp (in chat): Pix doesn’t play favourites, I do.

--

Joe: *experiencing technical difficulties*

Cleo: You doing ok Joe?

Joe: …Umm…nooo…

--

Joe: I usually do a pumpkin carving stream every year.

Cleo: I knew about that, I knew about that. (reading chat) I’m not going to buy a gourd and carve it for you Cam. No. I mean, we were watching something called like “the greatest pumpkin carvers” or something like that the other day.

Joe: Oh, then you’re familiar with my work.

SILENCE

Cleo: …You can’t see my face.

Joe: *laughing* No, I can’t, but I’m sure it’s—it’s—

Cleo: It’s definitely a picture.

--

Cleo: Now comes the bending of all the little flaps.

Joe (singing to the tune of the Monster Mash): She bent the flaps!

Both singing: She bent the castle flaps!

Cleo: The castle flaps!

Joe: …They’re like folding tabs!

Cleo: *laughing* I can’t do any more. I wish I could. Just not as fast at that as you are.

Joe: Ah, you know, it’s just practice Cleo.

Cleo: Yeah, you say that, but—but you’d have to have a situation to practice in?

Joe: I mean, if you wanted to do a songwriting stream one day, we could go through things like how to brainstorm, how to determine what’s a viable vs. an inviable idea. How to, you know, kind of workshop things--

Cleo: Joe, I’ve listened to some of your songs. I don’t think you know what a viable and inviable idea is.

Joe: I didn’t say commercially viable.

--

Joe: *singing the entirety of Weird Al -The Saga Begins*

Joe: (cutting himself off) Anyway, I’ll stop.

Cleo: That’s ok!

Joe: Cause you’re streaming. If you were not streaming, I would—… (Trails off)

Cleo: I’m ok with you doing that, its fine. It’s—It’s fine. It’s fine.

Joe: *immediately continues singing*

Cleo (15 seconds later): *quietly joins in*

--

Cleo (reading chat): How old do I think Joe is? Joe is about 6 years younger than I am. Ish.

Joe (knowing exactly what he’s doing): Oh! So kind of comparable to Anakin and Padme in Star Wars. *trying not to laugh* For those of you keeping track at home.

Cleo: *Throwing her knife down* Really? Really? That’s what you’re doing to me?

Joe: *uncontrollable laughter*

Cleo: Yeah, yeah. Are we—are we feeding the shippers again today, Joe? Is that what we’re doing?

Joe: I mean, I think technically we were already doing that by singing the Star Wars song at all. So I was just gonna, like, lampshade it. Like, I don’t feel like that’s more fuel on the fire. I feel like that’s just a shade on the lamp.

--

Cleo (reading chat): “I’ve always thought of Joe and Cleo as being more like Jar Jar and Padme” *laughing uncontrollably*

Joe (Jar Jar voice): Me’s a Joe Joe Hills!

Cleo: *physically choking*

Joe: You know though, you laugh now, but when I’m in the senate—

Cleo: When you’re in the senate, I’ll be dying of complications during childbirth, that’s what’ll be happening.

Joe: *trying not to laugh* Yeah, it’s like “we can replace a severed hand, but god forbid you have two children at once!”

--

Cleo (about her cat): She’s just howling so I pay attention to her. I mean, I get that. Someone’s ignoring you.

Joe: Oh, is that why you’re always shrieking during Hermits Helping Hermits!

LONG SILENCE...

Cleo: ...We’re not friends anymore Joe.

--

Cleo (reading chat): “Been listening to Cleo threaten people since 2016.” *laughing* Yeah, that’s—that’s, that’s kind of a thing.

Joe: But it goes way further back than that.

Cleo: *laughing* How long have we known each other now?

--

Joe: I’m getting a lot of messages saying I have nice hands. Feel free to be more descriptive than using the word “nice”. You know, you can say “elegant”, you can say—

Cleo: “nice” is a nothing word. It means nothing!

Joe: Yeah, nice is—nice is a little bit weak. So, chat, you know—

Cleo: UP YOUR ROMANCE GAME!

--

Joe (dejected): No, it’s fine. It’s fine…

Cleo: *laughing* “It’s fine!” He says through tears.

Joe (with anguish): I’m not gonna cry, because the model will get wet.

--

Joe: We just got a tip from Cameron who says “your hands look delicious”. Thank you very much Cameron. That’s going to put us 2 away from our next face camera expansion.

Cleo: That’s a very zombie emotion. Well done.

Joe: Oh! I thought it was—uh, ok. It’s a zombie thing, nevermind!

Cleo (quickly): *laughing* It’s not! It’s not! it’s no—!

Joe:  Well, you know, some people—

--

Cleo (receiving a mysterious package from Corpse mid stream): Should I open this on stream Corpse, is the question.

Joe: It’s like, do I need to set the mature filter on? Are there a lot of pictures of hunky boys in here?

SILENCE

Cleo (holding a mug with a picture of Garrus in front of the camera): Wow… *wheeze laughing* It says “Garrus Vakarian is my space boyfriend” *laughing continues*

Joe: I don’t know what that means, but ok.

Cleo: This is the character that I’ve been romancing in Mass Effect.

Joe: Oh, so there is a picture of a hunky boy!

Cleo (trying to justify herself): It—i—hunky boy alien, yeah, but—

Joe (not buying it at all): Uh huh

(Cleo’s partner in chat: Imma fight a mug.)

--

Joe (responding to chat): Cleo is in England right now, and I am in Nashville Tennessee. So, we’re both on a call together.

Cleo: Yeah…it’s probably safer, because if we were to meet the world would possibly end. Just out of spite.

Joe: Yeah, it’s one of those, uh—

Cleo: Demonic pacts. It’s one of those demonic pact things.

--

Cleo (in response to Joe’s suggestion regarding her itchy face): I mean, I appreciate your solutions, I’m not sure they are actually solutions. More “solutions”.

Joe: Well, I mean, usually when you air quotes the word “solution”, it’s like you’re indicating like, yah know “oh, you cut the break lines” type thing. Which is not how far I was going.

Cleo: You basically suggested getting a really sharp mammal. And putting it near my face.

Joe: To snuggle!

--

Cleo: Because everything has to be chroma green. Because how else would Joe be obnoxious to people if it wasn’t the chroma green?

Joe: Yeah I know! Also I got new glasses! *giggling*

Cleo: You’re very pretty Joe.

Joe (adorably): Thank you Cleo.
