With JD gone, you're now my only source of star wars anything. It's not even my fandom really but I enjoyed both your takes and lols. I'm gonna miss her rants. If you leave, I'll be bereft of sw content and just have to suck it up while I stay for dc.

JD leaving is the worst thing that's ever happened to me on this hellsite,

I'll take racist asks and death threats over this any day, now I have to text her my art and read every heartbreaking thing her twisted little mind will conjure up in response

It's awful, I wish she could share it with everyone without weirdos coming at her. She deserves the world, but the world doesn't deserve her...

I DON'T WANT TO BE TYPICAL so hmmm. han?

How I feel about this character

I...love Han, slightly against my will but also, like. He's a fun guy.

I think he got new backstory in his own movie that no one cares about except Donald Glover played Lando??? But I'm always going to be here for the Han who burned his Imperial pilot career (that can't have been super easy to achieve as an orphan) to save a seven-foot-tall minority dude who was getting abused by the government.

The fact that Chewie stuck with him afterward--like, there's the formal debt thing? But I've always felt like there was very much also the part where Chewbacca looked at this baby pilot who'd just thrown away the entire edifice of his own survival in a hostile galaxy for his sake, and felt that on a personal level there was no way he could let the natural consequences of that decision catch up. That he could not live with himself if he did that any more than Han could have lived with not saving him.

I have so many feelings about that! That Han is both the kind of person who is actually worth caring about and believing in even though he doesn't think so, and someone who when we meet him has been living most of his adult life with the heavy constant consequence of what it cost him to make the heroic choice just once.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Uh...just Leia, really? If I don't have a problem with a canon ship I don't tend to mess with it. He can have history with Lando, that's sometimes charming, but I think I like it a little better if he doesn't so I probably can't say I ship that.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Uh......based on my rant above, gotta be Chewie actually. I like his friendships with Luke and Lando a lot but the one with Chewie has been pivotal to his whole life so constantly for so long and it is incredibly neglected, both officially and on the fan side. Has it been seriously explored anywhere outside the hated Christmas special.

...to what extent is Chewie's general neglect a result of Christmas Special Radiation rather than the fact that the character doesn't speak English or look human? Not a lot I think, but maybe a bit.

My unpopular opinion about this character

I have no sense of what the popular opinions about Han are. Han takes are so all over the map.

I think Han can probably cook. Like it's not fancy and it's not even pretty, but it's safe and as wholesome as you get when fresh veggies aren't cheap, and it tastes decent. He probably experiments in the kitchen a lot but in the same unscientific way he mods his ship.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

Uh well you see I'm kind of detached from What Happened In Canon after the OT at this point but I think a cool direction to go with Han is he keeps trying things.

Because, see, Han doesn't know how to be chill. Han has been in survival mode almost his whole life, but for much of it he's been pretty good at being constantly one step ahead of the reaper, you know? He's always in danger but he's rarely helpless and his whole thing is the hustle to maintain that margin, he's got to move move move.

But Han is not going to be useful or happy in a political context. He can't contribute meaningfully to most of Leia's Republic-constructing work post-trilogy, and he's not under any direct personal survival crunch anymore. So like, I feel like he'd go through phases--he'd involve himself in the military/security end of things because hey he has rank and he's not bad at it, and it works well with his stimulus-seeking high baseline arousal and it's important.

But as things stabilized, which I insist they would in my canon, security work would get more boring and routine and the interesting bits would get less compatible with spending time with Leia, and he'd increasingly be choosing between 'desk work' and 'being told what to do,' so he'd pull out of that.

And this would put him into a cycle of not finding personal fulfillment in whatever he was focusing on, because he's used to having a sense that even his objectively stupid and banal activities are Very Important because his life was routinely on the line and in comparison a more normal routine feels Pointless.

Eventually I think he'd be a pretty heavily involved parent, but before that and after the kids were old enough not to need full-time attention, Han would go through these intense phases trying balance access to the domesticity he does actually want and his needs to not 'be bored' or 'feel useless.'

Honestly there are similarities to what Anakin would go through if he'd left the Order to be Padme's husband after the war, because they do have some significant points of commonality, but Han is a very different, much more stable person with a lot better-developed sense of agency so there would be a lot of 'storming off at a high point of personal frustration to take random cargo jobs in the Falcon for three months and then having to call Leia about the huge drug-smuggling operation that he stumbled ass-first into' but probably no actual breakdowns.

what do the people of the jury say, hm?

ahsoka's 6'5" because she grows into BOSS montrals i will not be taking criticism. canon didn't give her cool enough alien horns. in my head she has WICKED alien horns

FUCK YEAH SHE DOES this is what i’m talking about people.  I deeply appreciate your energy 6′5″ hell yes.

i was so disappointed by her lackluster baby horns in live action.  the ONLY good thing rebels did for ahsoka;s design was give her some bomb-ass alien horns that are bigger than my head and almost as long as my arm.

do not forget the wicked alien horn advantage as you consider the question of ahsoka’s height, y’all

saturday!!! <3

What gets me excited while writing? Getting into The Flow. That feeling where everything is clicking, you know what the characters are doing and how the plot is going. You have brilliant sparks going off, and words might as well be streaming from your brain through your fingers onto the page to color things with brilliant thought and description.

I can’t always get that to happen, but when it does it just keeps on propelling me forward.

I also love those moments when writing where something I wrote earlier as kind of a background detail or embellishment suddenly clicks as something I can use further and for something bigger. Those moments rock!

i feel like i'm eternally doomed to accidentally reblogging your fic to one of my animal-oriented sideblogs

this sounds like a thinly veiled attempt to tell me to go outside already and i mean i’m sure you’re right but also no

#misskirby #asks #the one time i got stung by a bee it stung me on the ass #i know it’s december but i’ve already been hurt before so no ❤️ #lmao for real thank you though

I want to imagine a Togruta hunting cry being something that can pierce eardrums from close enough (not a problem if everyone you’re hunting with has montrals, absolutely a problem if all your friends are human), is utterly terrifying to hear for reasons you can’t quite process, and is exactly the sort of thing that can completely block out other noises. I’m thinking something halfway between a raptor cry and ice echoes, almost-but-not-quite familiar to those of us in the real world. The noise serves multiple purposes, for communication between distant members of the party, herding prey in the right direction, and minor echolocation at lower decibles.

Anyway, Ahsoka screams in Maul’s face and it’s disorienting as hell. He’s deaf in one ear for at least three days. The incident knocked out all communications in a fifteen meter radius.

She’s very proud of herself.

my mixed metaphors are very important to me i'll have you know but i kept trying to make a joke and my brain keeps mixing the metaphors too well. "i'll tranquilize my nuclear rhino" is not a sentence i thought i would think today, and yet

your mixed metaphors are Very Powerful and deserve respect

and anakin is very much a nuclear rhinoceros sort of person

but ‘there’s a nuclear meltdown in progress so we’re tranquilizing a rhino about it’

still sounds like some kind of idiom about redirecting attention from a Super Serious Problem that’s too big to be easily solved to a smaller, noisier, more immediate issue that may not actually need solving but dadgum we can actually address this one, so let’s get to it!

Never. I'll never turn to the Dark Side. You've failed, your highness. I am a Jedi, like my father before me. So be it... Jedi.

my fave kind of tumblr fan blogs are the ones that hyperspecialise in the fucked up mentality of that one character, specifically

#nobody else understands them like i do #yes!!!! so true bestie!!! do tell me more about how their daddy issues irreparably fucked up their ability to form meaningful friendships!!! #like sometimes i don't really know who the fuck the character is but like. heart eyes #i love it so much when people are passionate about fictional characters. they literally go like #i could fix him i could make him worse i could cook him like pasta i could psychoanalyse him so hard you can see my own issues #god. there is quite nothing like tumblr meta about utterly fucked up and pathetic little meow meow men. #is it internalized misogyny to find metas on evil pathetic men more interesting than that of women. #i feel like a) there aren't enough popular evil pathetic women characters and b) that would feel too introspective for my liking. #anyway. this has been A Thought. misskirby you may be gone from tumblr but you'll live in my heart. also inspired by miss batarangsoundsdumb #lisanna talks

Different anon from the last two anons but misskirby has said (at least to me privately if not also publicly) that she is very against master/padawan ESPECIALLY obikin because of the father/son dynamic
