I was looking up Governor Pryce on google to check the spelling of her name and the second result (after wookieepedia) was a reddit thread about how she's just misunderstood and like. no? i'm rereading the thrawn novel rn and she starts off evil and then finds more people with whom her evil can propagate and i think she's pretty clear-cut as a villainous character from the start (all of this is just from one chapter).

In the chapter 4 pre-chapter journal entry thing, thrawn is talking about the paths people take: "Some are driven by malice. Such manipulations can prove effective in the short term. But the longer-term consequences can be perilously difficult to predict. The path of Arihnda Pryce is one such example. A deep and perceptive study of it can serve as a valuable lesson. And as an even more valuable warning." [pg 53] Arihnda is 100% driven by malice, as well as a desire to get to the top

Same page just a little down, "Arihnda glowered to herself. Uvis with one of his rock-brained questions or comments wasn't something she really wanted to deal with right now." [pg 53] What a hater

She absolutely despises Lothal. There is hatred in her heart. She calls it a "backwater dirtball" [pg 55] and then says "During her teen years, she'd begun to see the quietness as dullness, the open spaces as lack of culture or excitement, the familiar acquaintances as stifling and boring." [pg 58]. The reddit person claims "Arihnda was trusting, with a strong sense of justice and good nature" but this is not good nature. She's been a hater since she was a teen.

Arihnda fully throws an employee of her family's company under the bus when Governor Azadi accuses her mother of embezzlement. She's pretty sure that this poor woman was having digestive problems, and she just happened to be going to the bathroom at the right intervals to be implicated. "Maybe Harchmak was innocent. [...] Arihnda didn't know. She also didn't care." [pg 64]

All she wants in life is to climb the social ladder as far as she can, no matter the cost. She manages to leverage the embezzlement situation to get herself a job on Coruscant. "And all it would cost was her parents' jobs and dignity, and several generations of the Pryce family legacy." [pg 68]

She starts off as such a hater. She is demonized, yes, but I think she is a demon. She's power-hungry and she's not afraid to manipulate her way into more power. Spoilers for later in the Thrawn novel under the cut

Gonna be so for real with you, I thought she was going to cause the deaths of her parents. I was 100% certain that Arihnda would walk away from Batonn parentless. I think she knew exactly what she was doing when she set off the bombs on Batonn. Sure, she's a little less evil in the book than in the show (she's fully sadistic in the show), but she's still the one that says "An acceptable margin" when Kallus points out that civilian casualties outnumbered the insurgent casualties.

The tickets to success...

Designs are based on my "LoveLetter" AU.

I don't know what I was doing with this one. It started with just Spamton, and I had all this extra space, so I decided to throw the rest of the gang in there. I tried to go for a currency and ticket theme, though I think it looks the most like paper currency...

A long-awaited cover commission for my friend Sol for the first book in his Emergence series, Here Be Dragons. You can read it here; he is uploading the rewritten chapters every Monday and Thursday, but you can also read the original pre-rewrite in its entirety. Close-up/non-obscured version of the photograph here.

For millennia, humanity thought the Mainland and its surrounding islands was the only substantial landmass in existence. That is, until the world's first satellite launched and sent back images of two other continents in the far ocean. The Horizon, first intercontinental sailing ship ever built, sets sail for the new lands with a crew of world-renowned experts. Nearly to new shores, disaster strikes during a freak storm, leaving the ship at the hands of a lone survivor: Dr. Alexander Pryce. Without the expertise of his colleagues, Pryce must survive in uncharted land while he waits for rescue, alone. Or so he thinks.

The final product of my silly little Rebels queer alignment chart. Thank you every one who voted! Things I learned: My specific people I interact with apparently really like Maul and Kallus as they both had significantly more votes than any other character over the past 2 months. Haha

Second take away, I think it is so funny to see what characters ended up in the same category as each other, Like Maul, Saw and Chopper all in the same category, amazing.

A necessary sin

Pryce, trying to impress Thrawn in a fancy restaurant: And, how do you like Lothal's native food?

Thrawn: My people come from an ice planet, where food is scarce.

Pryce, smugly: So you like it, grand admiral?

Thrawn: Criticizing food is a sin in my culture.

Thrawn: But, may the gods forgive me, I don't even want to look at it.

First of all, Ptolemaios Pryce, the captain, and the station medic Nix Gottlieb, they have a very special relationship
