(Anonymous) - 2016-03-30 04:07 (UTC) - ExpandSo I'm working on a drabble for elder god Hux being his usual planet-destroying FO self and I can't remember if there was a prompt or if this one squiggled on in on its own. It will be ready soon, so I need to know if it gets linked back here in fills or just plopped on Ao3.
Anyone else remember such? And where?
Thanks.

Oscar Isaac is fugly in that.
Is it safe to call Kylo Ren an actual rapist via Word of God?
It might be a bit misleading since he didn't physically rape anyone, which is how the word is typically understood.
Do you have a link where JJ Abrams or a writer said something to that effect?

Wow mediocred ugly white man gets called sexy because women are conditioned to find any man attractive, give him a prize.
If you were trapped in the tfa universe and had to have sex with one character for ~reasons~ which character would it be?
Phasma. She could sit on my face anyday lesbihonest.

Is there anything about Finn wearing something like this? Because if not I need to prompt it/draw it/write it.

Recently filled a prompt for consensual Finn/Poe/tentacles, and I'd like to polish it a bit before I post to AO3. Would be deeply grateful for some help. Anyone interested in betaing?

I'll be honest, this whole article gives me such bad secondhand embarrassment.
I mean, as far as "fandom journalism" goes it's pretty innocuous, but still. I hate it when fanfiction gets covered in the news, it's so awkward.
Your thoughts?
If you want to give him a heterosexual relationship with a prominent human being from The Force Awakens who’s not his mother, Rey’s the only contender.

Any news on if we will get more flushed out Knights of Ren next movie?
Or other members of FO high command?
Or Luke's wife, if he has any?

flushed out! I know it was a typo, but I've got this image of a secret escape giant toilet/waterslide and all of them shooting out the bottom of Starkiller before it went nova.
So I saw those gifs of Adam Driver practising fight choreography without the robes and I am officially taking back every Darth Wader or rubber pants comment I made. Dude is pulling off that leather pants with suspenders look surprisingly well.

It's the gift that keeps on giving.
How should they be posted? each part as individual reply to the prompt or first part as reply to prompt and the rest as replies to the first part? What's the preferred method?
I think there's no preferred method. Both options seem fine to me.
So with the new film, and the old books becoming moot, what materials are now considered canon now for our dear galaxy far far away?
Pretty sure the movies (obviously) and the animated shows? I remember something about Rebels being canon at least. The novelisations and prequel books, probably. Not sure about any comic tie-ins, though.
Gray Jedi, Rey (possible redeemed Kylo if you want to go there).
(Anonymous) 2016-03-31 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)I have been reading up on the mythology and taking into consideration the latest Rebels finale, and I feel like Rey will end up becoming a sort-of Gray Jedi.
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Gray_Jedi
meanings. First, it was used by Jedi and Sith to describe Force-users who walked the line between the light and dark sides of the Force without surrendering to the dark side, and second, it described Jedi who distanced themselves from the Jedi High Council and operated outside the strictures of the Jedi Code. However, those who were considered to be true Gray Jedi met both qualifications and did not belong to any particular Force tradition.
During her fight with Kylo it was obvious Rey wasn't shy to use her hate and anger to fuel her fighting style. While I don't agree with the theories saying this means Rey will go Dark Side or be tempted by the Dark Side. I do feel like she will be the prefect candidate to find a balance between the Dark and Light sides of the force.
Luke didn't exactly follow the Jedi code (forming bonds with his friends), so it wouldn't be a stretch for me to imagine them pursuing something different. he entire point of the series has been about bringing back balance. The Jedi order was far from perfect, so I don't beliefs following their ideals will bring back balance. And neither would following the Sith (or whatever Snoke is). So it makes sense that the answer will be a compromise between both.

WHAT EXACTLY IS THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN DARK BLOND AND PALE BROWN HAIR? ISN'T BLOND JUST VERY VERY VERY PALE BROWN?
BEEP BEEP YOU HAVE FOUND THE RIGHT NONNER TO ANSWER THIS I am an inveterate colorer of mine own hair
okay okay okay. SO. Hair colors, like most colors, have specific tones to them—cool tones and warm tones. Thus, ice blondes (more white tones) versus golden blondes (more warm, yellow tones). It is v. popular for lady types in America to dye their hair a cool-toned blonde, so if you see a woman on the street with highlights or dyed blonde hair, that's usually what you're seeing. (It is a goddamn nightmare for me to find someone who will do the opposite, let me tell you.)
DARK BLONDE traditionally refers to someone with ashy (cool or neutral toned) blonde hair. It's not warm enough to look "BROWN", but it's obviously not GOLDEN. Good example: Mads Mikkelsen! He has ashy, dark blonde hair that looks kind of indeterminate depending on the lighting—blonde in some lights, brownish? in others, grey in others. Truly neutral hair colors end up looking kind of indeterminate on most people, so people will usually color in one direction or the other if they color their hair.
tl;dr: dark blonde means dark with no warm tones, pale brown indicates medium with warm tones.

In an Avatar the Last Airbender AU who is Fire/Air/Earth/Water?
Are Jedi's the only benders, are they just super strong benders, or are they masters of multiple elements?
Personally I'm all for a Legend of Korra-esque bending team with Rey being Air, Poe being Fire, and Finn being Earth.

I was reading some TFA fic, can't remember what one, but halfway through I realized that I misread the pairing list and those pairs were my LEAST favorite, made me super uncomfortable, and so I left the story. And it sucks, because other than that, it was a REALLY great story. Great character development, beautiful writing, interesting plot, but I couldn't do it.
Which is one of things I hate doing. I hate leaving stories unfinished, but there are some things I can't stand in fics and I give up on them because there's no avoiding it. Not the little things, but major plot points or tropes I can't stand.
I do it with TV shows, too. If there's a sex scene, I tend not to come back to a show. Like, I should LOVE Penny Dreadful, but I can't stand sex scenes on TV or in movies. Same with AHS, I should be completely into the story, but I hate visual rape, and that show is filled with it.
So what are your top things that you can't stand in a fic? Even if the story is so good, the writing beautiful, what's the one thing that sends you for the hills? Or rather, back in search of better fics.

I really dislike the word "cunt" in sex scenes. Maybe it's because I'm ESL and its equivalent in my native language is only ever directed at women? Strangely, I don't mind it so much as a general insult in British comedy. "Quim" is another word that turns me off.
Other things:
- embarrassing dirty talk
- no paragraphs
Can't really think of much else right now.

In tone of the 'new canon' backstory books, there's mention of Palpatine being selected and basically groomed by someone to become Emperor. Are they implying it's Snoke??
Would assume it's Plegeius (sp), tho I've seen a theory somewhere that Plageius = Snoke.
Does someone have all the concept art (and/or any other info about them) for the Knights of Ren in one tumblr post or something I can easily access?

I think someone prompted something about Poe being a popular singer and stormtroopers asking him for autographs before/after beating him up following his capture on Jakku? But I cannot find the prompt :(. If someone remembers it, could they kindly link it to me? Please and thank you in advance!
It isn't this one because this one's a modern AU, but I've seen the prompt you're looking for, I just am not having any luck finding it either.
Looking for SW time-travel fic! Any pairing is fine, I just really want to read some time-travel/time loops/time shenanigans fanfiction in the SW universe. Hell I would read Jar Jar Binks Time Travel adventures.*
*if this actually exists please do share now I'm curious

I love time travel, if anyone has prompts I will totally fill one for you anon.
What would the… command centre… main operations room...control centre... of the Starkiller Base be called? Probably not the bridge, like on a ship, but maybe? Thoughts?
The Wookiepedia page was not particularly helpful and I need the info for a fill I'm working on.
The Wookiepedia page was not particularly helpful and I need the info for a fill I'm working on.
Don't know the official term, but based on other military terminology I've been mentally referring to it as Command and Control, the Operations Center, or just 'Ops'.
I don't see the point in making an AU where all the characters are normal living in the modern world. If it's a prompt that requests a modern AU, that's different, the prompter is requesting it. I know some people really like AUs, and I'd guess that keeping the characters recognizable and in character is an interesting writing challenge. But I really don't understand why someone would take a prompt that doesn't ask for a modern AU at all and fill it with a modern AU.
I agree. It's like taking a request for high fantasy and writing a story set in the historical old west.
http://www.ew.com/article/2016/04/05/star-wars-force-awakens-jj-abrams-kylo-ren-ashes
Asked for an example, Abrams pointed to the scene in Starkiller Base where Adam Driver’s Kylo Ren is interrogating Daisy Ridley’s Rey and finally takes off his mask. The moment where he puts his mask down into that table of ash was meant for an early sequence.
“The backstory is, that that table has the ashes of the enemies he’s killed,” Abrams says. “That moment was actually shot for, and meant to be used in, the scene where he was talking to the Vader mask.”
In other words, that table of ash was originally in Ren’s private quarters. And the fact that he incinerates and preserves the remains of his foes adds a new, eerie dimension to his Dark Side nostalgia — and hoarding tendencies.
Suddenly I regret all the jokes I have made about him.....THAT IS FUCKED UP.
