star wars stop being cowards and give us a satine kryze series
game of thrones inspired political maneuvering, satine on the run with obi-wan, a doomed love affair, betrayal at every turn….
it could be so good and it would also be so nice to have an in-depth story explaining her lore and the story of how she and obi-wan fell in love and ultimately chose duty over that love
I AM BEGGING
PLEASE I NEED THIS
i do not at all mean this in a perjorative manner, but i do think it’s important to be able to consume a piece of media and go, “i’m not the audience for this” and be able to just walk away
there doesn’t have to be something wrong or “problematic” about something for a person to not like it. personal taste is personal taste. but something not doing it for you doesn’t mean it automatically has to be wrong or bad. it’s just not for you.
There’s been several times when I’ve watched a thing and been like, they clearly did what they intended to do, and did it well, and I don’t want any part of it. This is a high quality and deeply unpleasant piece of art.
“This is a high quality and deeply unpleasant piece of art” is a wonderful line, I love it, I feel it in my soul
And then we have it’s exact opposite, “this is low quality but I love it with every fiber of my being”, which I’m aware isn’t the point of the post, but my brain made that connection since we’re talking about how something being well done =/= something being enjoyable to me
nothing scarier than being a fan of a fic and then becoming mutuals with the author. like hi shakespeare. big fan of your fake dating au
When you’re a 29-year-old father to two teenagers, a cat-man, and a murder droid, on the run from the fascist regime controlling the galaxy, and you just said “I love you” to your situationship and all she said was “thanks”.
Also rent is due.
I’m this 👌 close to dropping everything and writing my own version of an obitine year-on-the-run fic
I shouldn’t, definitely not during test season, BUT
I want to
Also I just realized I’d either have to make it a canon-divergence au or break my own heart writing the end. Canon divergence au it is!
Hey please don’t delete your published fanfics, maybe in five years a sleep deprived 15yo girl will get hyperfixated in that specific side ship from a show from 2008 that your fic was based on and she’ll see that fic recommended somewhere and then spend an ungodly amount of time hunting it down both on ao3 and tumblr only to find nothing. So please don’t delete the fic. Please and thank you.
Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (2/?)
it would be funny if Effie’s name was Persephone instead of Euphemia, because her sister’s name is Proserpina —which is the Roman version for Persephone— and i totally see their parents going like “yeah, give them the same name, it’s fancy” and then effie has to use the shorter version of her name for the rest of her life, because she doesn’t like the idea of her and her sister’s having the same name.
Nothing in Star Wars will be funnier to me than the fact that Anakin Skywalker, the whiniest more entitled brat in the Jedi order, was happily married by the age of 20 and Obi-Wan Kenobi was still pining after his high school girlfriend at 38.
in Obi-Wan’s defense, Satine was also still pining over him at 38 so my conclusion is that relationship was really something we should have seen more of in canon
so my apple pencil just died like fr fr, which sucks
in the meanwhile have some old obitine art bc I actually sobbed at the end of clone wars, someone give me recs for fics that’s just them getting tgt or smth 😭
yes I know the lightsaber is kinda wonky, I’m just going to pretend I did not see it
read "Asphodel" by @impossibleprincess35!!! (really. read it.)
Okay, but let's talk about these recs, too:
ignite the stars (a modern AU!!) when the skies catch fire (another amazing fix-it <3)
I could list a ton of Obitine fics - there's so many great writers in this ship - but if you're gonna share mine, I'm gonna share yourssss!! <3
Might I add an obitine fic I just finished binge-reading, called She Said The Word, it’s an au where Satine asked Obi-Wan to stay with her after their year on the run, and everyone is significantly happier in that universe and I absolutely loved it
Ever just stessfully do the macarena when you know the next chapter of the fanfic your reading is going to make you cry? No just me okay..
op please elaborate?
Well I stress dance or dance when I'm anxious so the other day I was stressfully doing the macarena in hopes I would be able to make it through the fic I was reading
you know what this is the energy i want to bring to the party you are legendary op
