hey man I saw your post abt being done with tumblr and im NOT here to persuade you to stay but to tell you that i have LOVED your posts and your commentary because your thoughts on star wars (and lotr and i believe star trek? i’m sorry if i got the wrong person but i believe it’s you who compares vulcans to jedi which is rly cool) and you should do what makes you happy! i’m sure there will always be someone you’ll make happy no matter what site you go to :)
also i really really hope this didn’t come off as patronizing. i just wanted to send my well wishes to you if it was my last chance
that's very sweet, not patronising at all! 💜 Yeah, the Vulcan post is me, I actually have a Star Trek side blog too (@vulcan-enthusiast)
I don't see myself deleting this blog anyway even if I stop being active (and I'm not quite yet at that point) so there's not really any deadline for reaching out
hello! sorry if your question about the jedi knowing dooku was tyrannus was answered, but I couldn't tell if anyone replied to your post. So! my personal take is that the jedi know dooku is a sith, but they didn't know his sith name was lord tyrannus, for all they knew, that was some other dude and dooku was just count dooku.
Oh yes, thank you! Yeah, a few people chimed in on the comments, and the general consensus was that the Jedi knew Dooku was a Sith, and they knew a dude named Tyranus had hired Jango, but they didn’t know Dooku was Tyranus.
Which a couple people pointed out is kind of odd, since the Jedi saw Jango working for Dooku on Geonosis, so you’d thin they would have put two and two together?
The only possible explanation I can think of is that, because many of them were close to Dooku when he was a Jedi, they were like, "Nooo, he would never!" I mean, if you think about it, they basically did the same thing with Anakin, ignoring all the giant red flags because they loved him and had faith in him?
merlinobsessionist PROMPT: maybe leon is out on a mission and shits hitting the fan, but hes ready to face the bows head on, and BOOM, dante like breaks through the ceiling or some shit and is like "oh hey leon, :) i was just in the area, sup"
After the Tyrant had caught his bazooka blast mid flight and redirected it into the air, he knew he was in trouble. Once it started falling towards the ammo truck containing the rest of the explosives he was certain of it. The few feet he managed to get wasn’t enough to escape the ensuing explosion that knocked him off his feet and onto the sidewalk.
His ears were ringing, and he was desperately dragging in air-trying to replace what had been forced from his lungs. It was only his years of experience and learned muscle memory that he managed to force himself up and get his legs underneath him despite his screaming muscles. The Tyrant was right there however and he was only able to bring his arms up to protect his face before a large hand slammed into him, wrapping painfully tight around his torso and tossing him into a pillar.
He landed hard on the cobblestone street. Black spots danced in his vision and he couldn’t quite bring himself to force air back in his deflated lungs. Pain radiating up his spine and back made him think he might have been put out of commission permanently. He was getting too old for this shit. Still he forced himself up onto his arms. He wasn’t going to go out lying down.
“Oh you’re gonna wish you hadn’t done that.” He coughed out, still managing to sound somewhat threatening. Not that the Tyrant thought so, they didn’t feel fear. They just got mad.
Leon caught one giant boot step forward before his vision was obscured by a red coat.
Dante.
As much as he hated it when the man followed him on his jobs no matter how many times he told him not to, he was glad to see him now. He’d lost count of how many times he had caught glimpses of the man while on his missions for the government. No matter how many times he would tell him to stop worrying about him and go do his own damn job, the devil just wouldn’t take no for an answer. In the end they had settled on a compromise that if he were to follow him, he wouldn’t get involved unless absolutely necessary. Honestly Leon was surprised he’d waited this long given the last few days he’d been having.
“Hey buddy, why don’t you try taking on someone more in your weight class.” Dante’s voice was casual, almost carefree, but there was an underlying note of coldness to it that Leon barely caught from months of being around him. Leon watched as the blue monstrosity pulled back one of it’s large fists, swinging it right at Dante. If the devil hunter moved, it’d probably end up turning Leon into paste, and Dante didn’t look like he was even going to defend himself. At the last second Dante raised one of his arms, catching the blow in his hand, stopping it like it was nothing. Though the pavement beneath his feet cracking and caving under him from the force made it clearly evident it was anything but.
“Whoo strong swing you got there. If I hadn’t ‘a blocked it that might have hurt a bit.”
Dante shook out his arm with a flourish as the Tyrant pulled back with a frustrated growl, getting ready for another swing most likely.
Dante let out a laugh, "Awe Mr. Big and Blue getting upset already? We haven't even started having fun yet!"
Then Dante pulled back his own fist and slammed it into the Tyrant's muscled stomach and Leon watched in shock as it went flying across the road, colliding with a parked car before continuing into the next building. He knew Dante was strong, but it was one thing to hear about Dante's fights and another to see them in action.
He must have been in a bit of a daze because Dante was now standing over him with his hand outstretched.
"You doing alright Leon? You hit that pillar pretty hard.”
Leon took the proffered hand, using the leverage to lift himself off the cobblestone sidewalk.
“Just great. Barely even felt the impact.”
“Is that right?” Dante responded dryly before patting Leon directly on his spine. Leon let out a hiss of air through his teeth, before turning to glare at the man. “Seems you felt it a little.”
“We can’t all have super special demon powers to heal us instantly, Dante.”
“But it’s so handy.”
Before Leon can retort, a deranged yell echoes from beneath a pile of rubble and a blue hand bursts out. The Tyrant looks worse for wear, large cuts and scrapes cover its massive body and in the middle of its stomach is a large bleeding hole. Leon hadn’t noticed any blood on Dante’s hands but given the force of that punch, it was the only way the wound could have gotten there.
“Geez this guy just doesn’t know when to give up. You really gotta find better friends Leon.”
“What can I say, they’re attracted to my charm.”
“Wanna help me take Mr. Blue out,” Dante asked? Leon sighed, slightly disappointed.
“As much as I would love to, I have to get Buddy and get him out of here. He’s the key to stopping this civil war.”
Dante shrugged before rolling out his neck, “Yeah, yeah go save a country hero boy. I’ll take care of ugly here.”
“Hey Dante,” Leon said pulling Dante in for a quick kiss, “thanks for stepping in.”
“Don’t go getting all mushy on me now. I just gotta keep an eye on my favorite human.”
@merlinobsessionist LOLLLLL omg thank you for making me laugh i feel better now
also, THIS:
EXACTLY!!!!!! YES. THANK YOU. if somebody showed will merlin in season 5 i honestly think they wouldn’t need dragons to set camlann burning; will would be so fucking mad the entire place would just spontaneously combust
Sup dude! Love your Reason fic and love your liveblog of writing it. Also, I’ve watched rwby vol 7 again and i just finished ch 12 and it SUX and the more i think abt it the more let down i am by the writing and also im lowkey planning a clover gets sent back to ch1 with arresting team rwby and friends and fix? Things? Gets worse before gets better stuff and clover loyalties and fair game obv (slow burn ish tho) and like your liveblogging has motivated me and shit so THX! Good luck w/ reason
I think the fandom as a whole is just trying to forget that Ch12 even existed outside of a fever dream tbh. The writing was straight up atrocious and it’s going to take a hell of a lot for CRWBY to gain back the trust they seemed so intent on just smacking out of our hands.
But yeah.
ajkdhs thankyou so much!! It’s been a hell of a ride with this fic, and I was actually coming off my tumblr hiatus when I first started writing it, so the liveblogging has been a bit slow this time around lmao. Glad you’ve been enjoying my horrendous teasing though!! And incessant posts about me sobbing due to feels jkdhs
And I’m so super happy you’ve been inspired by all of this! It’s always great to hear that people are motivated into creating something! Especially when it’s helping these two heal through everything and learn to trust each other again. Gods know we all need to see more of that during this hiatus ♥
Hey! just wanted to say I love your blog and jedi posts. I love going through the pages of your blog becasue the first thing I see is that big picture of coruscant.
