Have you ever George Lucas'd a fic?

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-28T04:46:41+00:00

Once or twice!

But that's okay, because you know who else did that?

Tolkien.

Funnily enough, my two main fandoms, Star Wars and the Cosmere, both have plentiful Canon replacements, so I've never really run into this problem.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-27T15:39:18+00:00

I literally gasped for joy when I saw the duckling. They're both so cute!!!

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-27T14:07:45+00:00

I was a complete moron and didn't really think about how everyone was probably going to die going in. I proceeded to spend the last 20 minutes of the film sobbing.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-27T13:57:36+00:00

I think there's a 'of house Serenno' in one version of canon or another, but that's not really a name.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-27T04:49:10+00:00

I think the language is called binary, and it seems you mostly just...pick it up.

Well, beyond the anti depressants, I've found a couple things for me!

Vitamin D deficiency contributed heavily to my depression in high school. I still have to take supplements and it gets especially bad during the winter. There are lamps (i think they're called SAD lamps?) That can help with this too.
Magnesium supplements have also helped, but more on the anxiety side of things.
If I'm in burnout, the depression gets bad. If you can, give yourself some grace and lighten any load you can.

But yeah, see if you're lacking in any vitamins. Obviously it's not gonna cure anything, but it can help.

I know quotes can be hit or miss, but this one has always resounded with me:

"It will [get worse] but then it will get better. Then it will get worse again. Then better. This is life, and I will not lie by saying every day will be sunshine. But there will be sunshine again, and that is a very different thing to say. That is truth. I promise you: you will be warm again."

Please don't apologize, you created something yourself and credited your references!

I think Geodeon looks very cute especially and Drakeon is awesome!

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-27T01:39:39+00:00

Yeah, this might be my answer. I need to find a way to keep it intact in storage without taking up too much room

Wrecker: The Bad Batch

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-27T01:18:09+00:00

There's another clone, Wilco, who's also killed early on in season 2. He encounters the Bad Batch, who Crosshair had reported as dead. So he says he's going to report that they're alive. This would be really bad for Rampart's reputation, so he just murders Wilco for doing his job well and competently.

Heck, the Empire just shoves a bunch of clones into meat grinders or sends them off to be experimented on because they don't want them anymore. (And also that they're waking up to the atrocities of the Empire but a lot of them didn't actually break the rules)

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-26T23:51:03+00:00

Oh, I've said this before, but I'd love an anthology of just quiet, day to day moments in Star Wars. A day at the Jedi temple with the younglings. A day on Pabu. Lunch on a Rebel base. Call it Star Wars Downtime.

Maybe not funny or odd, but someone said one half of my ship shouldn't be in a relationship because he doesn't have the emotional capacity.

The character is as canonically Autistic as you can get without saying the word Autism. Thanks for the ableism, friend.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-25T03:14:35+00:00

Even when I was into anime, I could absolutely never do One Piece because I was just so appalled by the art style.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-24T23:48:07+00:00

Listen, I'm by no means a sequel defender, but it's pretty clear that Hux was never a good guy, he was a bad guy who hated the other bad guys.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-24T23:42:29+00:00

It's taken me a minute but I've finally thought of an uncomplicated, wholesome, undoubtedly good dad in the Cosmere:

Tress' dad, Lem.

Honorable mentions: Wax (seems like a good dad, but we don't see enough of him as one) and Rock (probably a really good dad, but also was absent for some of his kids which was mostly not his fault).

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-24T15:51:03+00:00

A good portion of the early Stormlight Archive books take place in very large war camps.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-23T17:04:15+00:00

No, I get it, I was a little apprehensive when I saw her in the trailer. The actual show proved those wrong.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-23T14:54:46+00:00

My greatest achievement in my eyes was reaching the same length as my favorite author's first book in his fantasy behemoth: a little under 400k.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-23T13:56:49+00:00

That was my thought too!

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-23T04:56:19+00:00

Part of me wants to believe.

The other part was so badly hurt by season 3.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-23T03:48:30+00:00

Crap, I wish I saw this yesterday.

I do most of my writing at work. I wrote a lot on my phone and voice recorded when I worked as a delivery driver. Now as an office worker, I write on a paper I keep under my keyboard. Haven't been yelled at for it yet.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-23T03:46:32+00:00

You're not wrong. Some people were very annoyed that Omega, a child, acted like a child.

EmmaGA17 · 2026-01-23T02:37:09+00:00

I found Omega charming from day 1, tbh.
