Andor s2

They didn't let Maarva say fuck in s1. But I don't know if they realise they let the Ghorman do something who is the equivalent to give the finger to someone.

When the guy slap his arm in anger it is what we call "bras d'honneur" in french. It is also done in others European country.

[aresielle]

About Andor s2 random things.

About all the "Vader will never..." we could see on the net. Some people were clearly not paying attention. He will not kill the officer because he is a rapist but because he is canoodling with rebel sympathiser. He will see him as a traitor. Vader will not save Bix. He will also kill her because he suspecte her of her rebel allegiance. And he will kill everybody in the farm because they hide her and her friends. Vader have no time for all of this. He will bring order and a swift justice to his master empire.

About Dedra age. It is a possibility the empire retroactively date his creation to the year Palpatine was first elected as a chancellor. Or the empire fanatic consider his election as the true beginning of the empire. Her parents were probably separatist and she grow up in a republic orphanage who became an empire's one while she was a teenager. (It will fuel the theory she is Cassian's sister but that's not the point.)

On a totally different note, Luthen and Mon whole "we will have to kill him" "damn" is the lest unexpected think in the whole weeding affair. The surprise is it did not append sooner.

Andor spoilers

So every characters had a very shitty week. Cassian , Mon, Bix ... their scene are grim and dark. We feel for them. There is all this angst and pain. And then we have the imperial rom-com duo Dedra and Syril. The whiplash is hard. It's surreal and cringe. It's awesome.

I probably have too much fun playing with krita.

Arcane/Star wars crossover idea

I was reading the arcaneconfesions posts and I had a realisation. The shipping war is becoming so similar to the one in the star wars fandom during the time the postlogy movies were coming out I had flashback. So it is time for the Star wars /arcane crossover.

Going by vibe and fandom's bad take of the characters :

Mel as Finn (they seems to concentrate the same kind of hate for no reason, they are underused in the last part of the story and they secretly as the force/magic all along. The lego special are canon!)

Sevika as Captain Phasma. (rule of cool badas woman who kick ass and are not as much in the show/movie as people would like)

Catlyn as Hux (for the uniform and the title of general and the dictator and switching side jokes)

Vi as Poe (because the banter with "general cupcake" instead of general hugs will be fun)

Jayce as Rey (for the "I survive in a post apocalyptic world" look also know as "rags as fashion" and there is no other characters who will really work)

Jinks as Kylo Ren (the kill her past, et caetera ... Even the try to kill her parent work, and the came back to the light side in the end. I will decline all responsibility if people try to ship Jayce and Jinks in this AU)

Singed as Snoke (weird bald old man)

Vander and Silco as Han and Leia (It will work well with the Jinks is Kylo)

Viktor as Luke Skywalker (the milk/sweet milk, the magic, the cult/religious leader ...)

Heimerdinger as Palpatine (because his species somehow return from the death)

Ekko as Rose (freedom fighter who are good at mechanics)

Maddie as Dolphe Mikata, the guy Kylo ren strangle in episode 7 (forgettable characters who are useful for shipping drama in fanfiction)

Ambessa as Pryde (They came and they are in charge now. No complain will be accepted)

Cassandra Kiramman as Vice amiral Holdo (they both end in a flash of light. Sory if the joke was too early.)

Isha as Chewbaka (we don't now what they says)

The hexcore or hextec in general will be a kyber crystal in the lightsaber.

If someone is inspire you are free to use this.

[aresielle]

I have try to create an animated gif with krita. For a first try it's not so bad.

[aresielle]

90% of fanfic where Powder is adopt by Jayce and Viktor.

The subject of this picture ... how to explain ... my brain decided to mix a lot of different things I have read on this website theses last days and refuse to delete it unless I exorcise it by drawing it or writing it.

So pacific Rim and Jurassic park AU for Arcane. Don't ask why I would imagine singed will clone dinosaures mix with his daughter DNA and create monsters who will invade earth. Or why Jayce and Viktor will pilot a giant Robot when they are suppose to be two of the beast scientist in the scientific department. Or why the dinosaure is a giant T-rex with blond feathers hairs. Or even why the dinosaure reproduce like the xenomorphe queen and lay eggs in human. Or why the robot are closer to the one from evangelion instead of the pacific rim one.

It make no sens. Heimerdinger and Singed were married and Orianna was their daughter, Ambessa was the one in the Piltover council and Salo (a very interesting name when you speak french) had one purpose in live : try to have Viktor in his bed to Jayce and Mel 's brother chagrin. Cassandra Kiramman was the founder of Piltover. Mel and her brother pilote one Robot, Caltlyn and Vi another, and Vander and Silco were the pilots for the first robot build.

Jinks and Ekko as the two young scientist who find the way to eradicate the dinosaures were the least bizarre thing in all the stuff my brain decide to produce. And Sevika killing Singed to destabilised the dinosaure queen during the final fight. That was pretty normal for an idea.

I hope I will be free of this story now. Get out of my head weird AU please.

All the shampoo bottle had these yellow thing ... I'm not sure if I'm suppose to laugh or scream in fear.

[aresielle]

The sun and the moon.

And the reason why I don't do color anymore most of the time. I only see the error in the drawing. So I had light effect to hide them.

Anyway ... Mel and Viktor from arcane ... Jayce is probably somewhere in the background lamenting to Ekko and Heimerdinger about how live is so difficult, how he can't choose and other craps of the same kind.

[aresielle]

A quick drawing (one hour) of Ambessa Medarda and the most unhinged pairing I see her in. Silco was one thing ... but Singed in a tag team with Heimerdinger? [insert the mind blowing meme here]

Could Heimerdinger even count as a twink? He is small and unassuming ...

The question : who will be the male lead in this romantic comedy with Ambessa as the female lead?

[aresielle]

I don't know if it append to other people. But sometime, while I scroll a fandom tag in AO3, I just read the tag and I'm just choked by the implication of some crack ship who exist. Some of theses fics are just PWP but the ramification ... it will create somme very insanes AU. Insane in the "Any time I had a problem I threw a molotov cocktail, and boom right away, I had a different problem" kind of way. And I stay days thinking about the kind of fanfic it will create. But I'm not very good at writing.

Lastly I was reading the tag " Arcane: League of legends (Cartoon 2021) " and I found a fic with the tag Ambessa/Silco. At first I was "WTF ... this is really random but why not" and then I begin to imagine how the characters will react. I have not even read the fic, but ... this is the thing my mind create just by reading this particular tag :

Ambessa will try to have a good relationship with her new step daughter Jinks so Jinks will make weapon for her. Jinks will probably be ecstatic to have two parent who indulge her in her love to make things explode. Especially if she have now access to a military budget and an easy access to materials.

Mel and Vi will probably have an awkward conversation about their share little sister/step sister.

Jayce and Caitlyn will be happy they will be really family now by proxy of their significant others in a convolute way.

Viktor will probably say to Sevika he is so happy they are not a part of this dysfunctional family. Sevika will answered something like "speak for yourself" before she will joint Ambessa and Silco. And Jayce and Mel will probably drag him in the family so they will not be the only one suffering the insanity of Ambessa doting on Jinks while flirting openly with Silco and Sevika at the diner table.

If Ekko manage to declare his feeling to Jinks, the meet the parents event will be ... something.

When ask "how could you choose Ambessa after Vander death. did you not like men?" Silco will look them in the eyes without blinking and answers "muscles" and nothing else.

[aresielle]

So ... I have finally watch the second saison of Arcane.

This is some fanart. There is potential spoiler.

~~~~

The text at the Bottom left.

Vi : Sorry for your lost!

Caitlyn : Jayce was a great friend. He will be dearly missed.

Mel : Sometimes I can still hear his voice.

Jayce (with the psychedelic hairs) : Quit telling everyone I'm dead.

Viktor : Can't believe I will accept Ambessa's deal.

Mel and Jayce : Well ... You don't have to.

Viktor : No, I'm gonna.

~~~~

Mel and Viktor together because I don't want to take a part in the ship war with Jayce in the middle.

Rambling

The other day I was looking for inspiration for something to draw and I see a prompt list for an event (Au-gust if someone ask). I will not do it, but some of the prompt give me ideas. Because my mind did not follow one single idea and branched very quickly in every direction it goes like that :

oh there is a prompt for princes & princesses and another one for Victorian era.

It remind me all of theses otome isekai I read this last year.

Should I do some otome isekai/ star wars cross over?

But which period?

So I began to organise my ideas.

For the people who did not know what an otome isekai is :

This is a sub-genre of isekai (transported in another world) where the main character is transported in an other world. Often it's an otome game or a romance novel or light novel. The main character is often a young woman and the world she end in is vaguely European. The architecture and costume are generally a mix of European fashion going from maybe 16th century to early 20th. This young woman will reincarnate most of the time as a noble young woman or child and her purpose will be to save the world and or save herself from a funnest destiny (death). These stories are almost always romance with different males characters fighting for the girl attention.

So … how does an star wars AU will work? The easiest way will be : take a star wars character and put it in an existing otome isekai. It's boring. And if I put Obi-wan or one of the Clone trooper in an otome isekai … it will probably end like an existing almost otome isekai : lout of the count family.

I could imagine an in universe otome isekai and transport one of the character in it. It's too much work. And I'm pretty sure there is already some fan-fiction with a similar premise.

I could take the different traditional characters archetype and force a star wars character in each slot as an exercise of the mind. I chose to do that. I think it will be fun. And it was.

The different roles are the following :

The main characters : often reincarnated as a villainess of the original fiction. It did not mater witch title her father, have she will be the «princess», half of the time the character is adopted. (And her family will drop a “she's adopted” faster than Thor when ask about Loki in Avenger)

The older brother : there is 3 cases : overprotective, incestuous or abusive (sometime it's a combination of the 3. It's about you “death is the only ending for the villainess”.)

The father : most of the time not a good one. Even if he love his daughter, he will pretend he don't. It's the kind of fictional character who will hate his child because her mother died or, if she is adopted as a replacement for the original child who disappear, he will blame her for the disappearance.

The dead mother : because the mother is always dead. If she is not dead the main character will wish she is.

The step mother : Russian roulette for a good and supportive one vs evil abusive one. No middle ground.

The cheeky maid : there is always one maid sidekick. With freckle.

The original female lead : 2 cases : evil «white lotus» (very mean girl) vs main's first fan (people will ask why it's not a girl's love story)

The animal or child pet : the cute item who will follow the «princess». Could be magical. Will be far smarter than any other characters.

The duke of the north : a brooding, cold and handsome young man, with a tragic back story. One of the love interest, most likely to be main's lover at the end of the story if it is not an reverse harem. Black hairs and blue or red eyes are very recurrent.

The crown prince : a rich, suave, charming and handsome young man, often blond. Somehow he need to win the crown. (In these stories they follow east Asian court rules. With concubine for the king/emperor and their children fighting for the crown.) One of the love interest.

The queen (dowager or not, sometime not even the queen in title) : the woman who really rule the kingdom. Like the step mother her evilness is define by a Russian roulette game.

The magic tower master : a smart and handsome young man even if he is centuries old. Often one of the love interest. Green or white hairs are common.

The pope or head of the local church : could be a love interest. If not he will probably be the queen henchman and scheme with her.

The faithful knight : An handsome and kind young man but because his social position is lower than the other ones is love is very unrequited. Most of the time he will be the only decent man.

Now we have the roles we need the periods. I will define them following the movies and TV show. (BBY : before battle of Yavin, ABY: After battle of Yavin) :

The acolyte (about 100 BBY )

The prélogie and the clone wars (32 BBY to 19BBY)

The bad batch (19BBY to 18 BBY)

Kenobi and Star wars Rebel (9BBY to 1BBY)

Andor and Rogue One (5BBY to 0BBY)

The original trilogie (0BBY to 4ABY)

The mandalorian, Boba Fett and Ahsoka (9ABY to ? )

The postlogie and Resistance (34 ABY to 35 ABY)

This is my attempt to fill the different roles.

Some choices may seems dubious. If someone want to take the concept and made their own version go with it.

[aresielle]

It'a probably 50 year to early. But I think the joke was fun. Plagueis had a meeting and need a baby-sitter. So accidental baby acquisition. I think it's how it is call.

Little Sheev have a Jar-jar plush and his shirt have "I'm the senate" in the front. He will use lightning when he have a tantrum.

[aresielle]

We often see on social media or in comment under articles "X will nether do that. It's illogical and bad writing." about a character who fall to the dark side of the force.

I think peoples forget, the fist think to disappear, when someone fall, is logic and rationality. Darksider are not logical. They are not rational. They 're doing the opposite of the reason why they fall initially. And they always made the worse decisions ever.

Anakin go from "I want to save my wife. I like to be a hero" to "I choke her. I'll kill everybody, the women and the children too".

Dooku, from "the republic and the jedi are corrupt" to "I create a gouvernement more corrupt than the galactic senate and a war who will force the jedi to act somehow more again their moral code." And he didn't see a problem.

Maul. His name is an explanation enough for anyone who had watch the clone war cartoon. There is nothing rational in his "KEEENNNOOOBBBBBBIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII !!!".

Palpatine. He seems fine at first. And when we analyse his decisions ... we begun to doubt his choices. His own kidnapping at the beginning of episode III. The way he handle Anakin and Luke in episode VI when he know Anakin is irrational about his family since day one. Staying in the second death star while nagging the rebel.

Kylo Ren/Ben Solo ... like Maul, this guy is not really an exemple of good logical decisions. He makes bad decisions faster than his father made the Kessel run. Who run to Soke instead of his mother, Leia Organa, when his uncle try to kill him? She is a biggest tread to Luke.

Reva and the inquisitors in general. Their jobs is to capture or kill jedi. So of course they go around the galaxie telling people "have you see a jedi? These loosers who are kind, compassionate and help peoples?" . It's pic logical's tactic for hunting jedi.

To be fair sometimes they seems to realise they made a mistake somewhere. Like Qimir when he look at Mae in episode 2 and 4. Or Palpatine when the invisible hand crash on Coruscant. They have the same "why did I choose this idiot as my apprentice" look.

So Osha following the hot guy who kill her old friend, Yord, and Jecki, her sister padawan she just meet, and try to kill her twin sister Mae is following this pattern of stupid choice done by people who fall to the dark side of the force. It's stupid. It's irrational. I think that's the point.

Yoda says the dark side is quicker, easier, more seductive. He forget to say you will loose your brain cells in the process.
