Sabine x Din propaganda..Sorry about straight people in pride month. It's okay because Sabine and Mando are bi and idk what Kanan and Hera are up to but they have Ezra as their gay son so like its fine

a couple of sketch pages from livestreaming with a friend. Ignore the little diagram at the bottom of the second one, I had to explain to her where the hell was star wars Rebels even happening. Have my precious precious ghosts and their precious precious gay uncles

[dippenink]

Rebels but make it 1920s

I have ideas! The Ghost is a speakeasy the crew runs and it is wildly successful because the one actually getting the illicit drinks there are the kids. No one suspects a thing.

I have the most thoughts for Sabine. She’s a wealthy heiress who ran from home and her family are still looking for her. I also couldn’t decide on one look in particular so I made a few options

okay guys can we talk abt the pieces of damon lore dropped in some of the fte’s🤔 loooong conjectural yap session incoming

he gets pretty secretive about his home life if pressed further, but it’s clear that his parents struggled with paying the bills until he started raking in prize money from competitions. i think this little detail can

explain a lot abt his character. for one, his obsession with studying and burying himself into improving his talent. as a kid, it’s possible he placed pressure on himself to pull his weight (his relationship with his parents is evidently affectionate, so i don’t think they forced him into this), so he made sure to excel in school and eventually debate club not only for respect, but to secure the ideal future for himself and his parents. he may have known going into it that competitions had prize money on the line, and the club had the additional benefit of beefing up his college apps. getting into edens garden academy must’ve been a dream come true for the whole family, it’s likely he idolized the school growing up as a symbol of true success and prosperity (hence his bio mentioning there was never a doubt in his mind that he was destined to be the ultimate debater. an ultimate in his eyes was the best thing a young person could be)

another thought, his financial situation could be attributed to a number of things, but if it was due to his parents struggling to keep jobs, it would make sense why damon is so dead-set on defining people (including himself) based on the utility of their skills. he’s seen firsthand how cutthroat the job market can be, so upon initial meeting he either views his peers as inferior due to their less practical talents or as competition he refuses to back down to. he is obsessed with comparing himself to others! in his mind, people are their resume.

also, i wonder if the reason damon is described to be argumentative from an early age in his bio was due to teasing from other kids for being less well off? or possibly getting into spats with his parents under the stress? spats with extended family or other adults who ridiculed his parents? spats with a shitty landlord??? pure speculation, but these underdog scenarios would really showcase his desire to be respected

in a world so uncertain, damon’s tongue is his sharpest weapon and tool, and as such, he holds his talent in high regard as the sole definer of his identity.

This!!! More additions/yapping below on the topic because I was picking up on the same details and I’m SO glad someone is talking about it

Damon’s only likes are the spring season and STUDYING. Neither of those are actual hobbies. In Desmond’s first hangout, when he asks what Damon does in his spare time, he’s actually in disbelief when Damon replies that he just… studies, and nothing else. But Damon still doesn’t see anything wrong with it, or in the same vein, how his talent “isn’t useful” like other people’s, so he can insult other people’s talents. This is probably because his talent has helped him and his family make money that they need to make ends meet, so Damon absolutely doesn’t view his talent as useless. Meanwhile, coming to Eden’s Garden Academy where he assumed everyone else would be in the same tooth-and-claw situation, he’s likely disgusted by how easy everyone else seems to have had it, and made it on such “useless” talents based on the way they conduct themselves rather than think individually about all the behind-the-scenes work each individual might be putting in.

Damon is incredibly egotistical but it’s likely an ego born out of pride for his own accomplishments, and it’s a pride that without, he has no identity. It really is implied that this Ultimate Talent is what changed the lives of Damon and his family. There’s all the reason’s OP listed, but few other things that stands out off the top of my head is when Damon mentions his parents designed his suit for him, and how Ingrid chooses Damon to help on laundry day because of how clean-kept he is. The homemade suit design honestly just has that sweetness to it that gives the idea the family is close, and it was possibly an achievement present for Damon (and even then it’s based around his Ultimate Talent), and meanwhile the laundry tidbit wouldn’t be so bad if we weren’t shown in the same breath how utterly incompetent Wolfgang was at the same task. While Wolfgang clearly hadn’t touched a washing machine in his life, Damon had no issues, and a judging expression on his face.

Bonus, there’s also the fact that Damon is so confident his record is absolutely clean when the blackmail is distributed, because he’s worked hard at doing nothing that would give him a splotch on his record, which probably ties into what OP said about Damon’s idolization about the Academy. Damon NEEDS his ultimate talent because without it, what else does he have?
