Eli: Basic Is A Difficult Language. It Can Be Understood Through Tough Thorough Thought, Though.

I just watched The Honorable Ones, I now understand where Kalluzeb came from.

The bot situation is so bad right now that I have to stop myself from automatically blocking new followers. I completely mislaid the previous post about this I made so here's a new one:

New Tumblr Users PSA!

Please put something in your bio, change your pfp, reblog a few posts, show some sign of human life. This lets us old and jaded tumblrites know that you are, in fact, a person, and not a spam or porn bot trying to get engagement in order to appear more legit.

If you are attached to your default icon, here's a picrew that will help you add signs of humanity to it without completely abandoning your cute little geometric buddy:

Make your own default very normal not at all suspicious icon! With lots of options to choose from, being mistaken for a bot can be a thing o

It really doesn't take much to let people know you're a real human being, and it will save you from the disappointment of being blocked by the folks you wanted to follow before you even know what you're doing here.

Welcome to tumblr. It's a blue hellsite. You'll love it. Just please fly your human flag so we know to welcome you and not to zap you!

yes thrawn is one of the most complex antagonists and baddest big bad in the star wars universe and his return poses the largest threat to the new republic since its formation

but also... thrawn 🥰

Breaking down the walls Crosshair has built and melting his heart would be such a slow burn. You'd first just have to learn to enjoy each other's silence - comfortable silence. Not awkward at all, just existing with each other. He's not a talkative guy, and doesn't like being pressured into conversation. But flashing him a little smile across the room will do more than words ever could.

Then you start doing quiet little things for each other. He's out of toothpicks? A new box mysteriously appears. You're sick today? He's convinced his brothers to be as quiet as possible to let you sleep. Hate taking out the trash? It's already been done, even though it's your turn to do it. He's noticeably tired today? you've made a new pot of caf, what a coincidence!

Then it's little touches - a brush of your fingers against his as he hands you tools for repairs. A light tap on his arm to wake him from a nap. Your knees touch as you sit next to each other around a bonfire. Crosshair isn't a touchy-feely guy, but subtle, gentle physical contact makes him feel warm and tingly. The first time you are hurt during a mission, he wordlessly bandages your hand for you. Glancing up every so often to make sure he's being gentle enough. Once he finishes up, he holds onto your hand a little longer than necessary.

When you wake up shaking and sobbing from a nightmare, he hears you. He makes his way over to your bunk and has one word for you: "Scoot." He's warm, and you feel safe again. His brothers find the two of you cuddled up together in the morning, but they don't say anything - they just share some knowing grins. They always knew you and Crosshair were a perfect match.

Your first kiss is barely even a big deal because it was so natural. You're both so obviously comfortable with each other that everyone kind of thought you were already dating. He kisses your temple when saying goodnight, you kiss his cheek when he brings you caf. Your lips would find each other's eventually, and after that, very frequently.

Crosshair wouldn't ask you to be his official partner - it's just a given. If anyone asks, you're "together." He's still got a fear of being abandoned, and doesn't want to put a label on it. In his mind, it'll hurt less if he ruins something that doesn't exist. But one day, after years of sweet silence, gentle touches, softly kissing, and making love, you overhear him refer to you as his wife. And you know that his heart is yours forever.

I want a book/show where the main "heroes" are the children of widely known villains, but instead of the whole repent for the father's sins thing they're incredibly proud that their dad helped build the Death Star.

I might write this.

I've been imaging this all day...seeing it written out made me cry.

reunions and the unhappy like

“Thalias,” Thrawn rasped, after a while. “Samakro. It’s nice to see you again.”

The shorter Chiss opened her mouth to reply in kind, but her companion was faster.

“Oh, really?” he sniped, lip curling in obvious disdain, sunlight glancing off of his piercings. “I didn’t think we committed enough war crimes for you to feel truly at home here, isn’t that why you fucked off to Lesser space?”

“Samakro!” the shorter Chiss - Thalias - hissed, elbowing her unrepentant companion.

“Can you not give him a break for five minutes? He’s been- crawling about the wilderness, for who knows how long, and-”

“I don’t know, Thalias, did he give the literal war crimes a fucking break at any point over the last few years?”

“I-” Thalias trailed off, biting her lip. “Look, you have a point, but just- lay off for a moment, please.”

“Fine,” Samakro growled. “A moment. Then he gets what’s been coming ever since he decided rampant war crimes were in. Fuck, I knew he was- unorthodox, but this- what he’s done, Thalias? It’s unforgivable. It’s fucking unforgivable.”

“I know,” Thalias said, soft as ever. “But- please. Not now.”

“Fine. But only-” and that was directed at Thrawn, moreso than Thalias- “because you asked. Because, fuck that guy.”

Ezra blinked at Samakro, and glanced back at Thrawn, whose face was as pinched as he’d ever seen it, and he suddenly became acutely aware that Thrawn was- upset?

No, that wasn’t quite right, he was hurting. Who were these two people, this Samakro, this Thalias, that Thrawn held their opinions in such high regard?

Does anyone have any good Transformers fanfic recs set in the Bayverse where Crosshairs and Drift are together and Drift lets out a little Deadlock?

Actually scratch that, it doesn't even have to be good recs.
