Hi, I'm Dio! Currently, DC (Superman), Star Wars, Good Omens, Owl House, Riordan, Tolkien. Sometimes writing, sometimes art, mostly reblogs. dio_icaurtica on AO3

One thing I like about the Sith Code is that it reveals a core belief when you contrast it with the Jedi Code, specifically the way it’s written. The Sith codes uses a lot of me’s and my’s, showing that it’s a very selfish ideology. It doesn’t say that “Our Chains Are Broken” and not even “The Chains Are Broken” but “*My* Chains Are Broken”

The Jedi Code, by contrast, doesn’t even use pronouns. Like the Jedi, it’s very focused on something beyond the self. It doesn’t talk about what the speaker gains from their force abilities, but how the force is used to make the galaxy a much safer and more enlightened place.

🕯️: on a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you enjoy editing? why is that?

9.5 - editing is where a story really "clicks" and you can make sure everything's woven together tightly. It's where a story goes from a string of ideas to a whole, and I LOVE the feeling of seeing it all come together.

🛼: describe your latest wip with five emojis.

🛸🎉🫂🤝😁

🦷: share some personal wisdom or a life hack you swear on.

Doing things that scare you is sometimes the only way to grow, and some day you'll realize that that thing isn't terrifying anymore.

(my experience with public speaking)

Hot tip: if your Jedi character says “I have a bad feeling about this” something bad needs to happen.

When anakin says this in the arena in AOTC, like 200 Jedi get killed in the next ten minutes, and a war begins. If the situation looks bad, but is going to resolve itself just fine, your Jedi will have a good feeling about it. You the author, presumably know what is going to happen, and your Jedi’s vague premonitions should act accordingly

Nothing is funnier than writing from a non-Jedi perspective, have the Jedi say "I have a good feeling about this" and seconds later all alarms are blaring and the ship is falling apart.

hey everyone its april fools. but dont worry i dont have anything planned. just going to sit here and...
