I just played through my own damn game from last december for the all the way through for the first time, what?! It's good as hell?! Why didn't i become a millionaire from this. Just play it, ok? it's about 10 minutes in a browser window. If you like blades or killin' or dyin' it's pretty groovy.

The juggling sword fighting style was canonically passed on to his kids Kit and Airk in the willow series.

Clone Wars/Bad Batch Swordfighter AU
Random AU 1
Tumblr media
Okay so this is another really random headcanon I came up with 😅 But this one I feel leads more towards the Bad Batch?
It’s just I was reading The Three Musketeers recently by Alexandre Dumas, & I thought it would be cool if Omega was like D’Artagnan where she wants to be this noble & talented sword-fighter! But ends up teaming with the Batch instead lol
It does fit the cool mentor-family theme the Batch have with her, although she won’t be a jerk face like how D’Artagnan is at the beginning of the book 😅
Although since the Bad Batch are definitely more rugged than posh cavaliers, I feel they’d be more like El Zorro: goofy swashbuckling outlaws who are perceived as bad guys when it’s the opposite.
Edit: Maybe Omega is from an orphanage & that’s another reason she wants to travel with them? 💭

Finally, found woman's HEMA chest protector that doesn't have silly "boob" bits. (Think fem shepherd and you'll know what I mean)
Is actually comfy and deflects hits nicely.
Also think it looks pretty too.
From Mac Armour if anyone is interested!

A High Qing Officer
Armed with a Jian. The vast majority of Manchu Bannermen carried dao, so it is quite unusual to see an official armed in this fashion.We know he is a Bannerman by the green jade thumb around his right thumb.Thumb rings were worn as a symbol of their status as Qiren. One might think that his man was left handed given that he is wearing his sword on his right hip. But the thumb ring on his right thumb indicated he was indeed right handed. Perhaps there were some social situations where those armed were required to wear their swords on the opposite hip to prevent a quick draw. If this is the case, I am unaware of such a tradition in China. My suggestion is pure speculation. It is also quite possible that the artist simple decided he liked this look better and the swords position on the right hip has nothing to do with how it was actual worn.
19th Century, Chinese School Painting.
