She/They, 30-ish yrs old, artist, sometimes writer. I like things a normal amount. I guess this is now 50% a Star Wars blog, 50% other random brainrots. Helmet icon by @jadetheaverage

Hi! My name is Rowan (she/they) and this is where you'll find my hyperfixations. Lots of Star Wars, but also other brainrots call of duty.

You can use the 'ro's art' and 'ro's writing' hashtags in this post to find my own art and scribbles between the stuff I reblog. Anything containing clone ships are tagged as such, so feel free to block that tag if it's not your thing.

I LOVE talking about my oc's so you are always welcome to send me asks about them. Most of my art and headcanons you can find with the tag 'The Road to Concordia AU' or with any of their names.

For my CoD art you can use ro's cod art (it's still being updated)

I do most of my reblogging from @rowanartistside with the exception of art from my mutuals!

Have some links:

Yes. Okay. Enough rambling and links. On to art. And stuff. Wooooo!

Ohhhh let's see! I've been drawing mostly original art these days (never thought I'd be that person but here we are xD) but that makes it all the more fun to dig up some fanworks!

This Skyward Sword piece! Spent hours and hours painting every little detail, and enjoyed every bit of it.

This CritRole piece! I'm glad the colors turned out as dreamy as I'd pictured them.

The huge-ass Dragon Age medley I arranged and performed a couple years back! Proud of myself for actually finishing such a beast of a project.

A more recent Dragon Age fan piece that was a lot of fun to make. Just finding references for the mabari alone was a blast xD

And lastly, let's add some writing to keep it varied. I don't do a lot of that, but this small moment of reassurance between two Wardens was something I really enjoyed putting into words.

With a gasp she sat up on her bed roll. Breathing erratically, it took her a moment to grasp her surroundings and distinguish reality from the blood-curdling visions slowly fading from her mind’s eye. She heard a voice, distant at first through the sound of her blood rushing loudly in her eardrums. “Oh- Maker, I… Sorry! It’s okay, it’s-” Her hands searched around in the darkness for familiar fur, but instead found skin; an arm, a chest, a face. “It’s okay, it’s just a dream. Hey, you can calm down now.” “Alistair…?” she muttered, as her eyes started to adjust to the darkness. She could make out his silhouette against the glow from the campfire. Her breathing slowly returned to normal as she remembered. She was at camp, somewhere between the Korcari Wilds and a town called Lothering. The fatal battle, Flemeth’s rescue, it all came back to her now. His voice was soft and hesitant. “I- I should… Sorry.” She only realised she was still holding on to Alistair’s arm when he got up. Instinctively she clasped the heavy fabric of his shirt, hanging on to that reassuring bit of warmth, of human contact, for just a little longer. “No!” she blurted.  Alistair froze, uncertain.“I mean… Please.” She forced herself to let go of him, feeling like a complete idiot. They had known each other for what, a week? She certainly wasn’t the type to make friends easily, and it’s not like he had chosen to travel with her; a terrible twist of fate had forced them into each other’s company, along with the surly mage.  Between Morrigan having to leave the Wilds unwillingly and Alistair dealing with the loss of his fellow Wardens there hadn’t been much room for friendly chats. And yet, as she sat there, beads of sweat on her forehead and the memory of the nightmare still fresh, the young Warden felt like the only real thing in a world turned violently upside down. “I saw you turning in your sleep and I thought…” He sat down beside her, close enough to feel his warmth in the cool night air but not so close that they touched. He glanced at her. “I mean, not that I was watching you sleep or anything. I’m not- That would be really creepy. It’s just that… I have them too.” She stared past the campfire, where she could vaguely see Morrigan’s tent in the distance. Her dog was strolling through the bushes, no doubt in search of places to mark his territory. “The nightmares, I mean,” he said. “I have them too. They can be pretty rough. It’s a Warden thing, but I guess nobody got the chance to warn you about them, so…” He tousled his hair. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have woken you.” “It’s alright,” she said, but her voice came out strange and soft. She cleared her throat and wiped a strand of hair from her face. “It’s alright,” she repeated, more firmly this time. “Thank you, Alistair.” He smiled. They sat in silence for a while, the gently crackling fire and distant sounds of forest creatures filling the air. There was so much to say, so many questions to be answered, but this wasn’t the time. Right now she just took comfort in his presence; warm, safe, near. After a while he stretched his legs. “I should let you get back to sleep, we have a long day of travel ahead of us. I’ll be over there when you… If you need me.” “Alistair?” She hated that she was about to ask him this, but she was too tired to stop herself. “Hm?” “Could you… Would you stay? In case I…” She felt like a child, asking her father to leave the bedside candle on. But Alistair caught her gaze and in that moment she knew he understood.   She slept soundly the rest of the night, listening to Alistair’s steady breathing next to her. In the nights that followed the nightmares returned often, but the Wardens quickly grew into the habit of watching over each other. Turns out after you entrust your dreams to someone, making a friend is easy.

Star Wars Writing Requests

I need to get the writing juices flowing again, so I'm asking for people to send in some requests! Even if you don't have a request yourself, please reblog this so others can see. Help a local writer out and get the brain working again! 💜

I'm willing to write short little drabbles or one-shots. Be as vague or specific as you wish (but specific ideas help me come up with an idea). Doing character x reader for female, male, and gender neutral readers. Both platonic and romantic pairings.

What I'll write:

  • Fluff
  • Angst
  • Hurt/Comfort
  • AUs
  • SFW (suggestive is fine, but no NSFW please)
  • Platonic only for child characters (Young Ahsoka, Omega, Ezra)

Who I'll write for:

  • Any movie characters (Prequels, Originals, Sequels, R1)
  • Any TV show characters (Clone Wars, Bad Batch, Rebels, Mandalorian)
  • All clone troopers (with the exception of RepCom characters)
  • Jedi: Fallen Order characters (with no Survivor connections)

If you have a character in mind, but no specific idea, send me a DM and we can talk about possible ideas. I will try my best to write for any character, but I can't guarantee if I don't know them well enough.

In addition: I am also open to writing platonic character groups/relationships without a reader insert (clone squads, master & padawan dynamics, disaster trios, etc.). I would prefer to avoid romantic pairings in these to avoid shipping discourse (exceptions for canon couples like Anidala, Kanera, and HanLeia as background elements).

Big Bro Gree, Big Bro Gree! Like he had to have taken Barriss under his wing at some point right? Trying to be the perfect commander, he’d see himself a lot in her possible struggles to be the perfect padawan

He calls her BoBo, try to change my mind

The Vode An Zine team is happy to announce that the donation has been processed! We thank you all for your patience and your dedication to this project. We raised $7,043.97 for Purapura Whetu Trust!

Got asked twice so I finally scraped my brain cells together enough to actually answer this XD

Oh boy! Difficult choice. My preference usually goes to drawing, writing is a 'second' form of stress relief for me, but I still wanted to do a little combination. So you'll get my three favourite art pieces from the past few years and my two favourite written works. Be prepared for a mix of different fandoms!

Anyway, art wise:

I’m just very happy with the clothing folds and the lighting in this one, and it was my first time drawing Alejandro and Rudy!

Oh boy, this one took so long to paint! It was done for my first ever zine, and I’m still so incredibly proud of the amount of details, the fully painted background, the color scheme!

An oldie, but one I still love very much despite all the mistakes. It was my first time doing a full ‘painting’ like this, painting over my line-art, thinking long and hard about my composition and colors etc. And we still just deserved that hug damn it!

While I mostly tried to write funny, lighthearted kinda stuff when I was in my Batman read: Tim Drake phase, I did write one one-shot that was a little bit more emotionally heavy. I never ended up continuing it (it stands fine on its own luckily) but I’m still very proud of it.

A more recent CoD one, and still very much in progress, but I somehow feel like I kinda leveled up my story telling and dialogue skills in this one, so it has earned a place on the list :)

Thank you so much @anstarwar and @frostbitebakery for these asks!

Hello everyone, commissions are still open!

I had to open commissions this month because I’ve been paying additional bills that put a bit of a dent in my usual fundings. I appreciate it if you could help me by commissioning me! ✨

My only dont’s are just mech, perspectives, and NSFW only because I haven’t been practicing much with those yet. Everything else is alright, like your fav blorbos? Your fav blorbos doing normal things? Your fav blorbos smoochin’? I’m your gal 🫡

Feel free to book a slot if you’re interested!

“What are you looking at?”

“You—”

“How is it that your flirting with the enemy is so much more nuanced.”

“— and your truly impressive struggle with the flimsicoder’s charger.”

“Be my guest if you think you can do better, Obi-Wan.”

“And rob myself of the entertainment? I’d never.”
