Imagine Tony Appearing In The Afterlife

He looks so hurt 😢

Do it!

This. Is. Perfect.

Aaravos Headcanons

Because I couldn’t resist  :,)

Snarkiest bitch in the sky

Like you wouldn’t expect him to be cracking jokes at all right? But he does and they’re at everyone’s expense

needs to know everything. Doesn’t necessarily gossip but he just Needs To Know

Holds grudges

Keeps track of who owes him favors

Refuses to be indebted to anyone, will find a way to pay back immediately and extra so now you owe HIM

Writes poetry

Has a dramatic autobiography in progress, probably titled something pretentious

Witty, very dry humor

Not fucking around when I say he’s surprisingly funny

Journals

“Dear diary, today I walked into the library, looked at the books, and left”

Maladaptive daydreaming

Says cryptic nonsense

Loves fucking with people and is very good at it

Plays many instruments because he’s got a lot of time on his hands

Wears eyeliner when he’s feelin fancy(er)

Doesn’t sleep

Trusts no one

Would never ever ever ever ever admit it but he’s lonely

Touch starved

Likes hearing people speak because it’s been forever since he has

Smirky in all situations

Happy? soft smirk. Angry? scary smirk. Sad? rueful smirk

Chuckles more than he laughs

I could literally go on forever

This stream was my favorite thing in the entire world

Say what you will about Jin Zixuan but he's such a brother-in-law character. Like, you know he's rich and vaguely good looking but you still have no idea what your sister sees in him and you still haven't forgiven him about all the times he made her sad, doesn't matter if "we were only teenagers" and "he apologized" because in your opinion he hasn't grovelled enough but your sister likes him so you have to see him at every family gathering. I can see him wearing some type of sweather vest looking all awkward at the Jiang family gathering, there a 50/50 chance he's holding Jin Ling but it depends on the day, not because of any sexist belief that men shouldn't be taking care of children, but because while holding his son would help him pretend to not be as awkward as he feels (kind of like clinging onto the only person that you know at a party only that they're your baby son and your wife is talking with her family right over there) Jin Ling is also an auntie magnet so he has to fight for the right to hold his own son against elderly women and his wife's younger brothers, it's harder than you think but he's doing his best

happy reading!

I don’t know if you just implied that anakin murdered people without knowing or that it was qui gon... but I love it. So just that I understand that right (because English is not my first language and I tend to miss stuff), rn there is a war on mandalore with Jango, the haat madoade and the clones on one side and death watch with droid reinforcements and maybe unstable maul on the other side. Meanwhile Palps is laughing maniacally in the background, Dooku is trying to figure things out and help his grandpadawan the best he can and Obi-wan is denounced from the order, not very liked in the public eye but supported by the Mandalorians right? So would Obi go to Mandalore to help his fave murder boi or go back to the temple because something is going wrong in the senate rn and he needs to sort out the slander problem? And would Jango just in true Mando fashion adopt all the clones and have them be taught (and teach them himself) in Mando tradition (and maybe how to fight against force users because he can’t stop thinking about Maul threatening his family)?

@1elysium​ the dha kar’ta post was super heckin long, so i thought i’d answer you over here!

i can’t speak for fiori, but i’m so glad you’re enjoying it!! this au already means a lot to me, and the support for it so quickly has been amazing, both on here and ao3. I’m thinking between two and three years between Illum and Jango meeting them! i need time for Obi to build a relationship with Dooku and Anakin, and Dha lol. 

i haven’t given much thought to Obi taking a padawan, because i haven’t solidified my wants for the clones just yet. you’re right, they started them right about the time of the invasion of Naboo, but since Dooku was the one to orchestrate getting Jango involved, i don’t see that happening in this ‘verse. which breaks my feckin heart cause i LOVE the clones and Boba and i definitely implied in the force visions that Boba was a possibility, but i can’t figure out how to make it work 😭if Obi were to take a padawan, ahsoka is definitely a possibility, but savage has also crossed my mind. but yes he would absolutely raise them as Mando’ade Jedi. 

as for Dooku being involved with Palps, i’ve actually been thinking about that! i think he’s suspicious yes, but that’s the thing about a sith lord, he can warp people’s perceptions of him and his actions, and he has a lot of power that the council is beholden to, and Dooku IS a little busy trying to keep his other dumbass grandson alive. so while he’s still with the order, he’s off planet a LOT even before Jango searches them out.

now, that being said, Anakin is an eldritch force vessel in this, which he was not in the canon timeline. the force is semi-sentient and endless and exists on multiple layers of spice-time and is basically fucking canon in an attempt to keep Obi-Wan alive. which means it can’t allow Anakin to fall. which means Palps has less icky fingers in Anakin’s brain and while Anakin might not be totally aware of his status as a vessel, he knows to trust the force because on Tatooine, that’s all he had. i’ll save my other thoughts for the actual fic, but while Palps does manipulate Anakin to an extent, he doesn’t have nearly as strong a foothold.

Halloween spirit

This is my contribution to the ctabb Halloween bang! It is a Harry Potter Dabihawks AU and it got a little out of hand so I ended up with exactly 8000 words. Oops.

You can find it here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/21284078

Thank you too the amazing crimson ink who worked with me on this Au!Their tumblr is can you find here:

And their amazing artwork to this specific AU will be added as soon they post it.

Ohhhh shit what a clusterfuck (in a good and intriguing way) wow I’m so hyped for this! I don’t know how you’re gonna end this and I’m not gonna ask because spoiler but please, please don’t kill them! I can see the angst potential where anakin is so sure that he is protecting obi wan in killing Jango and that seems like a lot of drama and even imagining it I am breaking my own heart, wow. (I’m not saying I wouldn’t read that too because I totally would but I’m already ready to cry at the thought of it) I just- have I told you that I love this au? Because I love this au. And I love seeing people brainstorm like this! Just. Yes.
