Rose Tico defender

Casey, 20s, she/her. In 2012 something went very wrong in my brain and I became a Star Wars fan. I have never been able to escape the consequences of this despite effort on the part of both me and Star Wars. If I'm not careful any media I enjoy starts to turn into a cursed Star Wars AU featuring obscure characters from now non-canon books which were not good to begin with. I hate Disney but love the sequels. I am obsessed with Legends but don't like most of it all that much. I love SWTOR but haven't played in years. Nothing makes sense here, much like in any Star Wars continuity. Anyway I do actually enjoy good things too, I promise

writing is a fantastic hobby but the kicker is it's a lot harder to show your friends as it's progressing. with a sketch i can show someone and they'll be like oh that's an apple. you can't do that with words until you get a lot of them down. so i'll just be like damn fuckin. uhh. check this out

that's right. and that's just one of the several words i know

"You're under my skin, Scrapper."

Scrappy little self indulgent sketch I did in a haze of depressed exhaustion, cleaned up (sort of) and shared because my wonderful friends on the BodeCal server believe in me and I love them all very much ;w;

A character trait/dynamic that I'm endlessly compelled by is someone dealing with (or, like, failing to) being the child of people who were too busy being good people to have the time and attention to be good parents. This can be anywhere from 'was a public defender who gave a shit working 60 hour weeks with basically no vacations' to 'left their family behind to join the revolution/war effort and is now a universally beloved martyr-hero who saved/remade the world with their final breath' on the groundedness spectrum. The important thing is a viscerally felt but confused and ugly mess of longing, resentment, and guilt about feeling the resentment.

The first time around on the Lucrehulk, when Bode makes the comment about once breaking into a freighter on Denab, I didn't think much of it. At that point he and Cal are friendly, and banter has been a part of their relationship since the opening of the game. But he says something like, "I don't know why I brought that up." Cal drops it. I dropped it.

But. I just realized, he doesn't know why he brought it up because up until this point, everything he's said to Cal has been calculated. This story served absolutely zero purpose in getting him closer to his goal. He just shared a piece of his past because he wanted to. Because Cal makes him drop his guard. Makes him want to share himself and be known.

He must be terrified of that feeling.

4. In conclusion I still think Baru 4 will get done. I have been working on it, I’ve known all along broadly what needs to happen, and I’ve done a lot of other work along the way — a novel, several games. But it has been too long since I promised to deliver this book and that’s on me. Part of it is that I now see attention from other writers and fans as something I want to avoid. Part of it is that, with a decent life and steady medication, I no longer feel the extremes of strong emotion that can push a writer to the page. (On the other hand, I no longer spend years in a depressive funk, either.) Part of it is that I’ve probably become too sophisticated and jaded about my own work, too able to see all the ways it falls short. It’s easier to charge forward with a draft when you haven’t learned to sneer at yourself. I don’t know how to fix all this but I suspect it will happen the way it always happens: at some point I will sit down and write the fucking thing, and when I get 100,000 words in, I won’t hate it so much I have to throw it out. I felt like I owed everyone some kind of explanation and update. I’m really sorry this has taken so long. I have no good excuse, because I could have finished by now if I’d just sat down and done it. I’ve just allowed myself to sink into solitary contentedness. Which is nice, but not enough for a writer on a contract. Thanks for bearing with me.
