yeah he’s fine for sure
"Rey is a Palpatine" mostly sucks, but you can't deny those Luke parallels are so good
It was a cool night and Edweena had had to make an unfortunate stop on the mainline due to some problems with her crankpins.
Phil, her driver, had gone to try and find something that could help with a quick fix whilst Sid, her fireperson, stayed behind to keep her company.
As the two waited for Phil to return Edweena couldn't help but start to feel a sense of unease. Whilst she wasn't afraid of the dark she knew that strange things used it as a cover for their deeds.
As she was about to doze off her eyes caught a glimpse of something, she wasn't sure what it was at first but it seemed to be staring at her from within the nearby forest.
Edweena began to feel unnerved, she tried to look away but no matter what she did she just couldn’t keep her eyes off of the thing… or things in the shadows.
Then, it began to move towards her. At first it started slowly before picking up speed at a great pace, Edweena began to shake in fear as it got closer to her by the second until suddenly…
"Oh There you are Phil", Sid said as Phil stumbled towards them out of the forest.
"Where have you been, we've been waiting for hours, Sid shouted"
"On the way I may *hiccup* have found a pub and may have *hic* had a bit too many drinks" Phil mumbled drunkenly
"Oh for God's sake Phil", her driver groaned.
Sid then looked at their engine with concern.
“You alright old girl, you look as if you’ve seen a ghost?”
Edweena recomposed herself and gave a hesitant smile.
“Oh i’m alright Sid”, she lied, “Phil just gave a bit of a freight is all”
Sid chuckled, “Oh never mind him, although with him in this state and with your broken crankpins we won't be able to make it back home tonight but I should be able to get you to Vicarstown”
Edweena thanked Sid as She dragged Phil into her cab and they set off slowly.
But even as Edweena left for the safety of Victorstown, she knew that the shadows were watching her.
Ever notice how Cal never actually kills any of the bosses in Fallen Order, whereas he (eventually) kills all of them in Survivor? And every time he does, you see him taking on the weight of the life he just ended.
I am not over the character development in these games...
Self indulgent au where Fives and Tup encounter Dogma in the Inhibitor Chip / Clone Protocol 66 Arc. Also they all live.
I love this, Fives looks like the character that doesn't know how to lie.
"Some go quietly, they accept their time is up" Bert said grimly in the shed. "But others..." he trailed off.
The shouts and screams of the big engine were still ringing around his radiator.
As the night begins to creep
fast across the sky
The engines start their troubled sleep & here's the reason
w̷͖͖̤͕̫͒̒̔̂͛͑͋̇h̴̛̘͔̽̒͒͗̂̓̆̊̾̅͘̕͠͠ẏ̵̢̡̙̳͕̯̺͇͎̲̌͊͆̀͝
Summary: While on the hunt for a long-lost Jedi temple, Cal stumbles upon the unexpected: echoes from another Jedi with psychometry. And that other Jedi is reaching out, refusing to be forgotten.
(Say hello to the little one shot that could not stay a one shot)
So... so they land on Bogano and Cere, who has a *very* good idea of just how limited Cal's abilities are, just says "off you go!" And Cal... off he goes!!!!
...into the jaws of an oggdo...
Y'know, sometimes I don't think we examine Cere's motives in Fallen Order closely enough. This woman is so focused on her mission to bring back the Order that I genuinely think she's blind to the needs of others. You could say she drives Cal, pushes him to be his best self, and yet there are times when her actions are less benevolent and more 'succeed in this mission at any cost.'
She's walking a very thin line in that game. She might be suppressing her Force abilities, but there's this tiny thread of self-centredness that drives her.
It's amazing writing, and it's an amazing performance.
i've been thinking a lot about this post again so here's a handful of incorrect quotes based on this au because i'm back on my cal kestis bullshit may possibly do more
~~~
Anakin: Guess what?
Obi-Wan: What, Anakin?
Anakin: No, you have to guess.
Obi-Wan. wary: I don't know.
Anakin: Cal's in the medbay.
Obi-Wan: Why would you make me guess that?! What happened?!
~~~
Obi-Wan: Cal got into a fight today.
Anakin: Oh. That’s... bad.
Anakin:
Anakin: Did he win?
~~~
Anakin: Cal, what do you have?
Cal: A KNIFE!
Anakin: Okay, have fu-
Obi-Wan: NO!
~~~
Obi-Wan, in a meeting: My policy is if you see something, say something.
Cal: I saw someone fall out a tree today!
Obi-Wan, with the tone of someone who is used to Cal: Outstanding.
Anakin, standing beside Cal, covered in dirt and leaves:
Obi-Wan: This is what I'm talking about people.
~~~
Cal, rolling down the window: What seems to be the problem, officer?
Anakin: Get the KRIFF out of my speeder.
~~~
Anakin, pointing at Cal: That child is morally grey at best.
Still in denial about Cal not liking tea so this is how I hc the Mantis crew takes their caf:
Cal: cannot stand the taste of caf and drowns it in sugar. This has the unfortunate side effect of him getting sugar and caffeine high for approximately 2 hours before he crashes hard. Greez no longer lets him have caf and keeps it hidden.
Cere: prefers a good tea but will have caf if it’s what’s available. A drop of cream or a pinch of sugar to cut the bitterness but no more than that.
Merrin: she drinks her caf black, and if left alone to brew it will make it extra strong. No one else on the ship can drink it if she makes it. They’re not sure if she does this on purpose to have the caf all to herself.
Greez: while sure, you can just brew caf and drink it, there can be more to it. Greez likes to make his with a little pizazz if he can. Homemade syrups, frothed and warmed milk on top. Hell, he’ll even add some to his cooking to get a better depth of flavour.
Bonus Bode: he will drink caf whatever way it’s handed to him and down it quickly. The only requirement he has is that it’s near scalding hot.
Boba Fett: I won’t die until I kill Mace Windu!
Some dude: But Mace Windu’s been dead for years
Boba Fett: THEN I WON’T DIE
If Rex was part of the retrieving Han planning
Rex: Your plan to rescue Captain Solo…well, it’s a Skywalker plan so it might just work. But what if you get captured?
Luke: R2 can hide my lightsaber and shoot it to me if I need it
Rex: …That’s a bad idea
Luke: No, no, R2 said he’s done it before
Rex: *looks at R2* Oh?
Rex: And did he tell you what happened last time?
R2: *beeps nervously*
Hunter this season
Echo: I wanna fight the Empire
Hunter: No.
Tech: I want to be a Riot Racer
Hunter: NO.
Omega: I WANNA BE A PIRATE
Hunter: NO?????
