The fact a movie based on a Reylo fic has more people talking about it than either new movie too 🙂‍↕️

I say this because a fair amount of Star Wars is about how the old generation made mistakes and should let the new grow beyond

Like of Luke had listened to Obi-wan and Yoda he'd have fallen to the dark while facing the emperor, his attachment saved him.

#veiltober day 9: Varric

Didn't have much energy, so just a sketch of Veilguard Varric with his Dragon Age 2 chest.

Like I know how I read that scene with Tava, but already seen some imply he just misses Rey as an equal.

Also proof I'm better, I'm not a fan of RogueMagneto. But I put crumbs of it in my RogueGambit fic. Because a good writer challenges themselves. I even drafted a throuple fic. They can't bring themselves to even acknowledge a canon romance in the biggest film franchise.

Am I good writer? Not by a long shot, more and ideas guy. But I'd do more with Star Wars characters than 90% of the writers they hire. It's always power of friendship and generic we have hope stories with them.

I'd bring back long scenes of people yelling in boardrooms at space wizards.

That is indeed enough a reason. But I also hate that a real world historian claimed him because he's one too and wrote a book about the history of Star Wars through a very guy pov imo

You'd think Charles would learn not to be vague with the Kylo comic as to how Kylo feels about stuff after the vague Anakin vision in the Vader comic lead to "he's Palpatine's kid" discourse we see still to those day.

Truly my most hated character, more than Klaud, more than Thrawn or any other. Beaumont...

... spite fuels my creativity

Why shouldn't I think up a character talking shit about Beaumont Kin. The writers they hire have no problem implying characters are wrong for falling in love with the wrong person. I can talk about a dumb centrist historian who has all the answers. Buy his book today!!

Drawing the battle droid “Skeleton” was just an excuse for me to reunite Rey and Ben in the desert on tatooine. #reyloween #myart
