psychic blasts you with yuri

Dont ask me to explain this thing i made it ages ago while possessed by demons. Looking at now though i probably should have swapped some, like lady love dies and crimson acid or suletta and utena

Also i know these are not all lesbians, some are bisexual (also you might think i wouldve put moze in literally me, but literally me is more the ryan gosling blade runner type thing yk, moze is literally me in a girlfailure kinda way)

Aphra, Qi'ra, and a new fic

Good morning everyone. Happy Star Wars Day! I thought I'd share my latest fic, originally published on another site on Sapphic Visibility Day, but revised and improved for you all. It brings together two iconic characters: Doctor Aphra and Qi'ra. There is flirting, queer themes (and queer characters), implied/referenced sex, unresolved romantic tension, theft (to come), manipulation, manipulative relationships, and more.

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Here's the summary, which hopefully piques your interest:

Qi'ra prepares for meeting a notorious rogue and renegade who steals from sealed archives, floating prisons, and almost-impossible-to-access caves, selling the artifacts to the highest bidder to earn some cash for herself. Thanks to her informants, she has a strategy in mind to ensure that this woman, who can be described as nothing short of an interstellar disaster, will work for her and do what she wants. She sees this as one of the many ways to bring down the Galactic Empire. At the same time, she plans to offer this woman something she can't, and won't, refuse, something she will not turn down, considering her dalliances with other women…

Hope you all like it!

Aphra responds to the news that Darth Vader killed the Emperor with encouragement from that "farm boy". Someone posted this panel on Bluesky and I'm uploading it here.

Vader: Dr. Aphra is a rogue archaeologist, she tried going straight—

Aphra: Hey! I would never go straight!

I've probably talked abt this before, and I can't go fully into depth rn bc I really need to like. Eat breakfast. But Aphra ajshfjejsjf

Like just. The way that her fatal flaw I feel isn't her egoism or greed or impulsivity or fear of commitment or lack of consistent morals. Her fatal flaw is her belief that she can't change any of those things. She's convinced herself that she's incapable of change or improvement in order to absolve herself of the guilt stemming from her awful actions. She's so certain that she's unfixably bad + doomed to die alone that she rarely tries to actually become better or genuinely connect and stay with those around her.

And part of the problem is these beliefs are reinforced by the people around her, for various reasons (especially in her 2016 run). Sana told her something like "its not your fault you were born broken" or smthg, bc Sana also wasn't ready to reckon with the fact that Aphra has free will but used it to hurt her. Triple Zero for a while keeps trying to make aphra believe she is like him (very evil and cruel) bc he wants another friend in his evilness. Even as a kid, Aphra's mom told her that some people(specifically referring to Aphra's father) are just "wired different" and are so fixated on specific things and end up bringing down trouble on themselves and everyone around them. All these things and potentially more I've forgotten keep reinforcing to Aphra that she's stuck the way she is, that there is no point making the effort to change, and that everyone who loves her will just need to overlook her problems instead of trying to help or excepting better.

Basically Aphra's issue is she needs to take ownership of her actions and the harm she's caused and acknowledge that she is capable of being better. And then there's the whole exteemely difficult mess of actually wanting and trying to do better. But yeah, she needs to know she's capable of it to even start.
