Alternate ending

[prisonhannibal]

adam driver: the first order is this group that thinks theyre right facing another group one could argue are equally terrorists who think theyre right. so you have two groups that are completely convinced and morally justified to do whatever it is, if it means, you know, blowing up a death star which has so many.. the people and the families you know, even though theyre supposed to be bad. On the opposite side alderaan or you know whatever planets. the two terroristic sides basically thinking they are justified

[vulvatemptress-blog]

The resistance which is not a formally recognized state or military did destroy an entire planet after all and causes citizens of The First Order to fear for their safety and the resistance as well as the destroyed New Republic planets appear to be socialist in nature. That is inarguably terrorism. 

The First Order on the other hand is a legitimate state with a legitimate military and appear to be capitalist so really if you think about it they are the good guys. Or at least the less of two evils. To thoroughly condemn The First Order you would have to condemn just about every industrialized nation on our planet including the USA. LOL

[tharook]

The First Order is a military dictatorship that oppresses it’s own populace, kidnaps and indoctrinates children to fight for it, violated a peace treaty, used terror tactics, slaughtered innocents, and destroyed 5 planets as part of a violent coup.

The Resistance destroyed their superweapon before it could be used again. The First Order’s very existence and militarisation is in defiance of the Galactic Concordance, but they idea that they’d be the “lesser evil” if they’d filed their Legitimate State paperwork correctly is…evil.

[vulvatemptress-blog]

“ kidnaps and indoctrinates children to fight for it”

Thats exactly what the Jedi do with younglings.

[homucfer]

implying the resistance is even remotely related to the shitty ass jedi

"Will you be quiet now?"

shsl-sweet-designs

Skye froze in an instant at that. What just happened? Or rather why did it happen? Her face turned bright red but soon she just poked the girl’s stomach to make her stop.

[shsl-unlikely-team-deactivated2]

  "I heard you whisper something some time ago and I thought this would convince you not to whisper. If you have something to say then say it loud and proud or shut your mouth." She giggled.

[sonderiiiism-deactivated2022010]

She let out a sigh having the urge to just pinch her cheeks out of frustration. ” Well, it was just about your hair since it is quite soft you know? “

[orochi-bxrenso-deactivated20210]

im laguhiong towel for kitsune to ryoto please

Ryoto is extremely red, he has his hat over his eyes as he says “K-kitsune, Please!” He does notice a little something, the boy may be a bit shy around her but he peeks at that body.Oh hey there’s a-“W-what?”

[homucfer]

She pouts at him.

Tch…. Y-You were pretty rough with me, R-Ryoto-san….!!

She turned ever redder.

I m-mean, n-not to say… it w-wasn’t really nice…

A-And I wouldn’t mind… talking t-to you more…

She turned her eyes to the floor, and then back at him.

B-But you have to buy me things! Like clothes! T make up for it! If you treat me that awful in bed, you have to treat me like a princess everywhere else, got it!?

[zett-ocs-blog]

"Y-You aren’t..mad..?"

"O-of course, Kitsune-hime... I wanted to do that from the beginning, I was just... I didn’t think I was worthy of such a thing… I’ll treat you like the princess you are...!"

Ryoto looked happy as he took her hands.

[homucfer]

Hime?

Hell yeah.

She smiled a smug-ass smile.

I n-never said I wasn't mad...! I'm just...

Red as a damn tomato.

Y-You're not that b-bad, s-so... You can just...

She looks at him. She was cute. Cute Kitsune.

Um... G-Get me my clothes from the other room, a-actually.

[zett-ocs-blog]

"Ahh..I feel oddly relaxed.."

He stretched, his clothes loose and barely on now, hat left on Kitsune’s head.

"O-oh..Um. I remember now."

Still, he put an arm around her.

”..I r-really hope she…”

[homucfer]

And here she3 comes.

She sat up slowly, the towel falling off her chest into her lap. She rubbed her eyes. She had a few light bruises on her wrists. Tsk tsk.

She looked at Ryoto for a moment.

…

YOU IDIOT—!!

She turned red once again and pulled away from him.

W… W-What… w-what the hell, R-Ryoto-san…!! Y-You…. i-idiot…!!

[zett-ocs-blog]

"I’m sorry, I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I just lost control of myself and"

"I didn’t want it to happen like this if it did…I understand if you hate me and never want to see me again!"

[homucfer]

She pouts at him.

Tch.... Y-You were pretty rough with me, R-Ryoto-san....!!

She turned ever redder.

Who That // Open for theshslviolinplayer

[homucfer]

Ah. Fuckin’ shit.

She rubs her head. The girl chasing her walks by the doorway and smirks.

OI SHUT UP, I WOULD’VE WON IF—

It’s only then she notices the other person in the room.

Oh. Shit, sorry, bro. Uh… Yeah, I think so. Heh. Had worse.

She took his hand firmly and pulled herself up.

Damn, she was tiny.

…Who’re you?

[theshslviolinplayer]

"Darian. Darian Valentine." He gave her a smile before letting go of her hand. "And who might you be, miss?"

[homucfer]

Th’names Kitsune! Nice ta’ meet ya!

She smiled, rather brightly for a person who just went head over heels. Literally.

M’the SHSL Paranormal Investigator! What about yourself?

[theshslviolinplayer]

Darian shrugged. “Violin player. Nothing terribly special.” He then added, “So you’re a paranormal investigator, huh? That sounds kinda cool. Mind telling me what it’s like?”

[homucfer]

To, that's cool, though. I could never play a violin.

Oh dude. I go around and like, hunt ghosts and stuff?? I got this cool thing where I can touch and see ghosts so people get me to exorcise houses and sometimes I explore abandoned places and blog about it or go on TV shows about ghost hunters and stuff and its like the coolest shit.

[homucfer]

Darian just looked down at the girl, a little surprised. “Are you okay?” He knelt down to help her up, extending a hand. “Looked like a pretty nasty fall, there.”

[homucfer]

She sits up, her forehead bruised.

Ah. Fuckin’ shit.

She rubs her head. The girl chasing her walks by the doorway and smirks.

Who That // Open for theshslviolinplayer

Kitsune was sprinting down the halls of the school. Why? God knows why. She was going as fast as she could… Oh. Somebody chasing her.

Heh! Can’t catch me, Haru-chan!! 

She jumped over a chair in the hallway. After her came a taller girl with white hair in a pigtail, looking just a bit angry.

The redheaded shortie came fling towards Darian…right over his feet, falling face first into the cold, hard floors.

OW. FUCK.

[theshslviolinplayer]

Darian just looked down at the girl, a little surprised. “Are you okay?” He knelt down to help her up, extending a hand. “Looked like a pretty nasty fall, there.”
