Clarke: My Hands Are Cold.

Someone suggest this and I like it so here it is ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

here’s my worldbuilding hot take for the day: the whole “Miraluka veils” thing is not, in fact, an artifact of their own culture (because that makes no sense to me whatsoever), and came about solely because other species are so often unnerved by their lack of eyes.

Miraluka as a whole started hiding their vestigial empty sockets in order to facilitate relations with other species, since it turned out to be an easier solution than just telling the entire rest of the galaxy “get over it.” There are, however, groups of Miraluka that do in fact refuse to wear such garments out of defiance for often-Human-centric norms, as a borderline-political statement to challenge the idea that one should try to appear as “Human-passing” as possible just because other species won’t make an effort to move past their biases. Such groups are contentious in some areas, and largely ignored in others.

In private, among other Miraluka, and oftentimes among friends, Miraluka will frequently remove the veils/masks for comfort. The rare non-Miraluka individual who visits Alpheridies is often shocked and unsettled to realize that the veils/masks are a courtesy to other species which is usually discarded on Miraluka-dominant worlds and ships, and is forced to either adapt to a sea of eyeless faces or end up leaving the planet.

(Supplemental headcanon: Miraluka clothing, architecture, etc. often seems incredibly bland and boring to sighted species - because it’s not crafted with sight in mind. Dyes and paints are a completely foreign concept to Miraluka. Art and decoration is instead based largely on texture and shape, and clothing is primarily functional (warmth, physical support, carrying items, etc.) with the texture and weight of a textile valued instead of its color.)

Holy HELL this is good...

Pouring the fuel, fanning the flames Breaking the habit and melting the chains Embracing the fear, chasing the fight The glow of the fire will light up the night The bridges are burning, the heat’s on my face Making the past an unreachable place Pouring the fuel, fanning the flames I know, this is the point of no return

Point of no return by Starset is a great song and it always reminds me of shin teikoku Genda so here we are now

They shit-talk each other during a shogi game

Can’t stop fecking thinking about this but-

Present Mic being a very well know person. Hero, radio host, and a teacher at UA? Hell yeah people know him. He’s such a well known person that many know both his hero name and his real name.

But he’s not a high ranking Hero. He’s somewhere in the tripple didgets. The reason being is that he almost never goes on patrol - his agency and others prefer him to stick to his djing to make a name for himself. So many look at him and his quirk and go, “Voice hero? He screams at people? Lame. At least he’s fun.”

But here’s the thing. The reason he never patrols is because his quirk is devastating. He opens his mouth and windows shatter, foundations crumble, peoples ears start bleeding and their hearing, vision, and balance immediately goes to shit. Sure, his directional speaker helps, but standing too close to him when he uses his quirk is still dangerous. So as a Hero?

Present Mic is only called in for two reasons. First, as a last resort - the fight with the villains has gone to shit and well at this point might as well risk the damage to the inner ear to end it.

Second? As the trump card.

The fact that many consider him lame or barely a hero means they underestimate him. They’ll see his leather get-up, his styled hair, and his big grin and just start laughing. Who is this guy? Gives us a real hero! And then he opens his mouth. And it’s game over.

Have you ever tried to defend yourself when you couldn’t see straight? Couldn’t hear? Couldn’t even lift an arm without getting so dizzy you puke? That’s what his quirk can do, and all with just his voice.

Present Mic doesn’t have to be standing or fighting or even especially good at fighting to take down an entire base of villains. He doesn’t need to be.

Nautolan feet v2.0

I can’t find it now, but I really didn’t like my previous attempt to draw decent swimming feet for them in 2019, so here’s version 2: T-Rex frog edition.

There ARE shoes for Nautolans, but most prefer to go without or with simple foot wraps. And whether or not they blunt their claws is up to personal preference, but it’s more common for off-world Nautolans to do so.

This is beautiful ❤️

Ahsoka and Rex go to Tatooine

Ahsoka gets pointed to Tatooine about two years after the Empire rises. Bail is vague about it, but tells her she’ll find Someone She’s Looking For if she goes. Ahsoka brings Rex because reasons. Bail intended for her to find Obi-Wan, because he’s heard about training bonds and one time Obi-Wan mentioned Ahsoka had formed a minor one with him, but he doesn’t know enough about the Force to realize she’d be drawn directly to Luke instead.

So one day, Beru and Owen just open the door, toddler in hand, to see an exhausted, distraught former Jedi a good decade their junior on the step, with an clone soldier, eyes fixed on Luke and looking like she’s about to cry.

For a particularly high level of drama, this wasn’t planned, and Bail had only told her that she could Find Allies on Tatooine if she ended up in the absolute worst possible situation (she is pretty much the only person he felt deserved to know there were allies on Tatooine at all), and what actually happens is that Ahsoka passes out like two seconds after the door opens and Rex is left holding the bag of “how the fuck do I explain the thing.”

Rex gains a bit of favor by explaining about the chip in his head after Owen demands an explanation because last he heard, the clones had turned on the Jedi on the Emperor’s orders, and Beru and Owen have enough knowledge of slavery (and Beru’s family has been freeing people for so many generations) that the story of what happened during O66 on Mandalore immediately wins Rex some points, at least enough for someone to go get Ben.

This is the point at which I admit that this was partially driven by me thinking about one of those “Cody finds/is found by Obi-Wan on Tatooine, gets de-chipped, they end up Husbands” AUs and me really wanting post-O66 Ahsoka crying on Obi-Wan while he awkwardly explains to the Lars family that this girl is Basically His Daughter

Probably while Ahsoka’s passed out in his lap.

Also I want that dramatic moment of Owen telling Obi-Wan that someone showed up “looking for Jedi” but not really explaining much, just enough for Obi-Wan to panic and jump on a speeder with Cody in full armor and with a blaster because Owen doesn’t seem worried enough for it to be imperials but what if and then he shows up and instead it’s Ahsoka, exhausted and injured and unconscious, but it’s his grandpadawan.

He freezes when he sees her, almost doesn’t even parse that Rex is there until the man starts talking, and then he backpedals, grabs Cody from outside where he’s helping Owen secure the speeder, and shoves him into the building because Brothers.

(In Owen’s defense, he had a vague idea that there were millions of clones and had no reason to assume these two in particular would know each other.)

There’s a Keldabe kiss with some tears that everyone later denies happened, and Obi-Wan just goes over to sit with Ahsoka and push some healing energy into her body until she feels well enough to wake up. Luke toddles in and basically just gets passed around between Beru and Owen and Obi-Wan. He gives Owen and Beru an abridged explanation of how they all know each other and how Jedi families work, which leads to Beru declaring that if Ahsoka was Anakin’s adopted family, then she’s family to the rest of them, too, by Tatooine standards. And since Rex is a brother to Obi-Wan’s husband–

“Your WHAT?” Rex demands.

“Husband, vod'ika, keep up.”

Anyway, everyone’s family somehow but the important part is reuniting clones and having the disaster lineage crying on each other because I have seen those screenshots where Ahsoka canonically refers to Obi-Wan as her adoptive father when talking about him to strangers post-O66 and sure that’s arguably just her reframing to fit the conversation and her audience, but also. Like. That’s Her Dad.

This is awesome.
