I don't take orders from dead men

I refuse to be made of iron that suggests i can be bent and broken under the right pressure, the right heat, the right words. and i am done with being forged by others. Versios don't fail canon divergent IDEN VERSIO as loved by val Versios aren't soft i will seize my forger by the throat and make them regret the day they tried to shape me.

Garrick Versio goes from extreme coldness and pressure imposed on her only child to rare moments of pride and meaningful gestures. And that might just be what fucked her up the most. Like if he was always an asshole she could hate him without remorse but instead loves him and admires him and just wants to make him proud more than anything. Like fuck wanting to be on Inferno Squad for the fact that they were suppose to avenge what happened to the Death Star, Iden 100% wanted to be their leader because the squad was his father’s squad, she wanted his approval so badly, how’s that okay???

HEADCANONS // ACCEPTING

VERSIOS DON’T CRY, his father said as she watched her mother’s ship leave their home planet. That was an absolute drilled inside her mind ever since she was old enough to understand the words. She learned to keep her emotions on check, the perfect image of an Imperial soldier, not a wrinkle on her uniform, not an emotion on her face. Even when she had to deal with the public humiliation of being paraded as a traitor to the Empire, even when she saw the Death Star turned into space debris, thousands of Imperial lives destroyed in a second. In the face of death or despair, Iden always kept a cool head as her father taught her. Whenever fear or sadness attempted to creep on her heart she latched on to anger and decisiveness. 

But not even a Versio could repress her emotions forever. When her first undercover mission for Inferno Squad was over, when her family died and she finally had time to assimilate all the horrors she had experience, her emotions inevitably exploded and she cried until exhaustion. 

you and I— are true Versios, and Versios don’t cry, do they?No, sir, her five year old self had replied in a voice thick withunuttered shrieks of grief. Versios don’t cry.But the tears did not care that she was a Versio. They came at last, racking her body, scalding her eyes and face, hoarsening herthroat, an outpouring of grief not just for Zeehay Versio, who was the last soft thing Iden ever remembered, but for everything that had ever been hurt, or destroyed, or ruined. Everything she had lost, from the woman who bore her to the childhood she’d never really had. And when at last her sobs were spent and the tears had dried, their salty crust on her face evidence of grief made manifest, the world was the same as it was before.

This helped realize that allowing emotions to take over wasn’t the end of the world, that a Versio could cry and nothing terrible would happen. The world would keep its course and no one would know or care. From then on she allowed herself to grieve what needed to be grieved, to experience pain and sadness, but only in private moments, by herself. Even years later when she joined the Rebel Alliance and left the Empire behind, sadness remained a thing kept in secrecy, hidden like a bad habit.  She still refused to let anyone see her weakness.

“Of course I’ve got a plan. I’m not a rebel half-assing my way through a mission” a side-eye look fell on her fellow pilot and her lips betrayed a smile. She liked Bey, she was a damn good pilot who understood duty. Those were two things she could respect.

DO NOT SPEAK. WHAT TO SAY ?? TURN AWAY, YOU MUST !! needn’t see your mother in such a somber state. the past is the past; no need to dwell, for biding to prior actions simply provoked forlorn heartaches. zay urged herself to return to her quarters before iden discovered her presence; but she remained, gentle gaze pooling worrisome reflections. ❛ mom ?? ❜ came a gentle voice; OH, so hushed – barely audible to her own ear.  ❛ you okay ?? ❜    

[prowessed-blog]

The hologram she was watching turned off instantly. “It’s nothing” she kicked herself for the clipped tone of her voice, and couldn't help thinking about her father, how he always placed a wall between himself and his child, how he never showed him any form of affection or pride for her, not until those last moments, not until it was too late. But no, Iden wasn’t like him, she could say at least that much about herself.

“I was thinking about the first time I met your father. He made such a bad joke, but I can’t remember what it was” that wasn’t what she was thinking about, but it was what she wanted Zay to think about. Good things, good memories.

           ABOUT IDEN’S DEFECTION:

So I’ve been going through the Theed scene in B2I and boy do I have things to say. I’d like to clarify that at this point Iden isn’t 100% defecting to the rebel alliance. She has seen the remnants of the Empire destroy her home and it’s personal for her. She’s still not convinced the Empire is evil, she thinks that what’s become of the Empire is a bunch of desperate Imperials destroying everything in their wake and she wants to stop Operation Cinder because that’s not what her Empire stood for. Keep in mind that she was groomed with Imperial propaganda, literally, her mother whom she loved more than anything created propaganda posters. Her father drilled in her how great the Empire was ever since she was a child and she is from a planet which was the “Imperial utopia” basically, She truly believed the Empire wanted peace and order for the galaxy and that the rebels were stepping in the way of that ideal. 

When she’s confronted by Leia, there’s a moment where she hesitates and you can see the gears in her mind working, she even changes her stand (x). And I kept playing in my mind the moment when she’s captured by the Dreamers (Partisans 2.0) in Inferno Squad’s book and how she handled that. Iden is smart and she has had to deal with getting rebels to believe her before, she knows there are things they need her to say, of how bad the Empire is, and she’s not about to expose her conflicts of how much she loved the Empire to Leia Organa of all people. She’s the kind of person who will let nothing stop her once she sets her mind to something and right then she’s driven by revenge most of all. She wants payback for Vardos, and she needs to be part of the group that stops Operation Cinder.

Yes, eventually she does realize what the Empire has done, the more she spends time with the rebels, And that will bring a whole other bag of mixed emotions. I don’t even want to think the horror she’d feel if she ever talked to Leia about the destruction of Alderaan and saw it from her perspective. She straight up cheered when Alderaan was destroyed. But that’s an entire different headcanon.

Someone will find them” “Keep piling bodies like this, we’ll have the best vantage point in the city” “You want to tell me where you were?” “We’ve got eight hours before we leave the system” “You have to be a special kind of crazy to jump aboard a sinking ship” “Do I need to care for what’s going on here?” “Fight on my ship, and you’ll be sealed in a maintenance closet until you starve to death” “How old are you?” “Do they think we’re that stupid?” “Quit moaning, it’s already cauterized — you want it to bandage itself, too?” “Glad you’re so loyal to your staff” “They say kidnapping an Imperial is bad luck” “Maybe we do need to stand up for ourselves” “We are all slaves, every one of us, and the Emperor forges stronger chains every year” “I don’t care who hears me” “You have no idea how the Empire really works” “And that’s when you chose to defect?” “But Darth Vader, doesn’t take to rational, reasoned arguments” “Some men delude themselves all their lives” “I know the monster the Empire has grown into.

No one should confront it alone” “You know it’s going to get worse” “Any idea who attacked us? You’re the expert…” “What is it with you people and Vader?

THE PUNISHER // ACCEPTING

The smile that crept into her lips was slow and deliberate, like a creature bearing its teeth as a warning. She didn’t have to take any of it, specially not from the likes of Cassian Andor. She had some clue about his track record, it almost left the worst of Inferno squad, the things that still gave her nightmares, to shame.

“I don’t take orders from you captain” she would be lying if she didn’t admit to herself there was some  pleasure to be found within her next words “Haven’t you heard? Inferno Squad is officially part of the rebellion. My rank of commander has been restored”.

“you’re a monster” he hissed; she laughed and said, “better a monster, then an arrogant god.”
