FINALLLYYYYY 1/3 Reference

This is my attempt at bringing Hot Rod to life.

I am low-key heartbroken by the fact that Mr. Compress never uses his cane to just whack anyone else in the LoV.

And I don't mean an aggressive whack. I mean Rafiki's well-meant love tap when Simba was feeling a little too sorry for himself.

"No time for moping! Big smiles everyone! Smile like you mean it! Dabi, less teeth, please. Your face looks broken."

I made a little thing today.

Character Interaction: Vette

To Vette, Crodek is very off putting, because he he values her and treats her with more dignity then she’s accustomed too. While still being very much a Sith and dangerous killing machine. Sure Crodek is decent enough to her but he hasn’t truly freed her.

This man bargained with Vette for her freedom and did give it to her. Only when on his ship where it’s assured that she has no where else to go.

Crodek very much considers Vette his property, so in his mind he wants to grow her as much as possible. This gives him a vested interest in her well being. Which was part of the reason he removed the slave collar with the other reason being a demonstration how he keeps his word.

Vette understandably feels stifled by this behavior. So she holds her ground by using jokes and commentary to point out the holes in his logic. This aggressive sort of verbal grappling does actually end developing both of them into more competent and sure individuals.

This dynamic of those will continue to unfold and perhaps Crodek may grow enough to fully give Vette her freedom. At the moment it seems unlikely that Crodek will romance Vette as they’re busy enough as frenemies.

The Taste of Stale Ink

Ink the backbone of life. Bleeds unwritten.

Swallow back the blue

See how blotches gather under skin.

Cloying, Choking, All Engulfing

Embittered Stagnation.

a due extracted

It Was Greed That Demanded

And Fear Who Commanded

Hope is Thanks. so thank the dirt

from which

Ink and Blood came

breathe.

Be Grateful and Live.

it’s what you still have

A messy first draft of a Hound redesign. One hand is on backwards so we’ll ignore that. What this design does do, is bring together all elements I wanted. It just doesn’t integrate them, but hey what first drafts are for.

Note: Since my old masterlist is getting notes again (and I'm hosting @tbb-appreciation-week this year), I thought it's a good time to release a new version with a lot more resources. If any of you know another site or thing that it's missing from the list, let me know and I'll include it!! [Altho, I'm getting this close 🤏 to the hyperlinks limit on this thing 😆]

Note 2: To avoid tagging the 3 people from whom I got multiple resources repeatedly, I've placed 1-3 asterisks between square brackets after the links, depending on the OP. I give the respective credit to them in a legend at the end of the post.

HELPFUL BLOGS & SITES

The amazing @fox-trot, who not only makes astonishing art and write an amazing fic, she also responds to medical questions and gives all kinds of references for writing medic characters. Check her #medicposting tag and you'll find tons of information. Also check #star wars reference and her art tag while you're at it.

@writebetterstarwars, which seems to be inactive, but there are a bunch of references there.

@howtofightwrite The place to find out how to write a good fight scene.

@scriptmedic no longer active, but it has a great deal of useful information.

@scripttorture for your whump needs. Major trigger warning for all its content.

@sw-anthrobiology A blog dedicated to collecting headcanons about the biology and cultures of Star Wars species.

@archeo-starwars In-universe sources on culture and history.

@clonewarsarchives Resources & Concept Art Blog for The Clone Wars animated series.

Wookiepedia If you don't find something in here, it's probably because it doesn't exist, neither as a canon nor legends reference.

Star Wars Databank: The official Star Wars website's reference guide. All canon.

WRITING IN GENERAL (For those who don't want to die like Stormtroopers)

SlickWrite: Completely free; online. Checks grammar, punctuation, flow, and writing style according to different settings (including fiction writing).

ProWritingAid: [RECOMMENDED] One of the most thorough online proofreader I've ever used. Although when using a free account gives extremely thorough feedback, with +20 different in-depth reports, for only the first 500 words. However, you can earn a premium account license (for a year or for life) if you get 10 or 20 new users signing up for free; (if you wouldn't mind doing so using the link above and help me earn mine, please). The settings allow you to check your writing according to your needs, from general to formal to creative. It has a bonus that you can check depending on the genre you're writing. For example, in creative, you can choose romance or sci-fiction (there are 14 sub-genre in total). And just like google docs, you can share a document, and people can view, comment or edit it too.

LanguageTool: [RECOMMENDED] Another excellent proofreader. It also has a word limit in free accounts, but if you use the add-on for Google Docs, it counts each page as a new document, so hitting the word limit is nearly impossible. It helps you to rewrite a sentence (3 a day), even if it doesn't raise any flags; it's very useful for when your sentence is grammatically correct, but it doesn't feel quite right.

Grammarly, Hemingway Editor: No so great, but they do the basic job.

Felix Romance Update

My consular Elvira is an interesting mix of being in the know, and oblivious. She knew there was something up with Felix’s feelings regarding her but didn’t once cross her mind that he liked her.

They’re in a relationship now but it’s slow going. When Felix made free time for her she invited him to her to spend time with this desire was totally innocent get know you better type stuff. Yet somehow things naturally escalated, and they hit second base. My consular is a bit wigged out over it. So wigged out, that she didn’t tell Felix she loved him afterwards. She just sorta thanked him instead.

Like she does in fact love him, but this Jedi is still reeling from all these unknown feelings and complications. Which is impressive because Felix is pretty a straightforward guy. So these problems are entirely of her own making. Elvira will admit she cares about him deeply but love? No that’s too much, too big.

I’m over here like Jedi, why are you like this?

Blog Intro

Hello, I go by Fern. This blog is my creativity hub for writing, art, and poetry. As well as a place where I can share my original characters.

Because this blog operates an organizational hub what I’ve written may move around and change as I iron out details. So if something seems like it was different than before, it was. I just changed it.
