Bird au theory: the Shiny Pebble is not shiny until it is in the claws of someone worthy. This may or may not be widely known, but swindle has sold Roddy the "Shiny Pebble" several times anyway
That seems like an interesting theory but you underestimate Swindle for not knowing what come across his claws, even if the Marble doesnt shine he would know
Now that the pandemic is 'sort of, kind of, hopefully' over, I can't wait for the absolute mayhem that comes from the press junkets Marwan and Matthias do together, with poor Luca being stuck in the middle of these two jokers
The million dollar question: what do they have in common?
Highlights from last night's stream (I swear, if I had the wherewithal I would actually do clips/highlights properly with Twitch's interface, but eh, effort):
Spending a good ten minutes or so to finish beating that stupid Ithorian at the spaceport so I could finally get the HK part I needed. As I finally beat him, and we cheered in chat, I realized: he had no HK droid parts. That was just being sold like normal by a different vendor a few meters away
Finding a room full of deactivated mute protocol droids, and without any reason whatsoever other than "chaos", activating them all at the exact same time, and cackling madly as they all bunched up and got caught in doorways as they tried to clank past one another to start their patrol routes
Baby Voice Padawan and Holly the Holocron -- most unlikely padawan/master duo
Not realizing the spider enemies somehow breathed fire until like, 45 minutes in of bonking them on the head
Running around for over an hour inside of the Enclave, progressing story bits, gaining light side and experience points, and in a moment of hubris-fueled chaos, decided to overload a computer terminal with a one second timer, insta-killing the entire party. I had not saved since setting foot inside. We had to do everything again
Mical. Just... Mical (being in the party .05 seconds before talking to the Exile like a stalker, "oh god I didn't mean to click on him! I was trying to talk to the turret!", "The Jedi Council convinced Revan to change her mind", *gives a guy some credits and tells him to stop breaking the law* "I've never seen a Jedi do anything nice ever! You're sooooo cool")
MOOKS BRING VROOK TO THE NOOK
Running around Dantooine acting like a little missionary for the militia, asking every single soul on this godforsaken planet if they've heard the good news about Zherron and his gravelly faux Clint Eastwood Voice
And maybe my favorite moment, fueled by my own particular brand of blonde obliviousness, where I am completely and utterly lost trying to find a stupid cave, and talk to our favorite bald, old Jedi hater hanging out near our ship:
Me: [proceeds through passing all of the persuasion/charm checks, probably making bi-disaster finger guns to get Baldy to talk]
Old Bald Guy: You're right random stranger who gaslighted me last stream! [proceeds to give detailed strategic info about all of Dantooine's weak points]
Atton: Wow! You're as smooth as the barrel of a blaster. I like that. 🤩
Me: WHOA THERE, ATTON! Are you talking about that guy's head? THAT'S SO INSENSITIVE!
Atton, probably:
Also Atton: [influence goes up], internally "My god she's so stupid. Why does that make me love her even more?"
*checks inbox*
Looks like yall want more headcannons :) I'm so happy to share
Happy birthday to my friend @cherishsims!
You’re finally entering your 20s and it’s incredible! It feels like only yesterday we both were a teenage mess, and now we actually have our lives together (sort of??). I’d like to thank you for being there and being such a great listener. I appreciate how kind, creative and determined you are. We have a lot in common and can always talk about everything, and I love working on our characters and universe, as well as having all those jokes and laughs with you.
Me and our favourite space siblings would like to wish you happiness and prosperity! (And remember what I wished you last year? Are you cherishing these sims? Or your life? Or yourself?? CHERISH HARDER!!)
