looking for a prompt: lovecraftian Hux?

(Anonymous) 2016-03-30 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
So 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.

I'm not a Hux/Poe shipper, but I'm sure you guys will appreciate this.

Is it safe to call Kylo Ren an actual rapist via Word of God?

I'm totally stanning for him after that. He's adorable when Stephen tells him he's sexy and audience agrees.

If you were trapped in the tfa universe and had to have sex with one character for ~reasons~ which character would it be?

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?

The Atlantic article on Reylo

(Anonymous) 2016-03-30 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2016/03/reylo/471768/ 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?

Knights of Ren

(Anonymous) 2016-03-31 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
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?

Kylo's leather pants

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.

Multi-part fills, how?

(Anonymous) 2016-03-31 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
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?

Canon

(Anonymous) 2016-03-31 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
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?

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.

Avatar AU

(Anonymous) 2016-04-02 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
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.

Biggest Turn Offs (sexual or non-sexual) in Fics?

(Anonymous) 2016-04-02 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
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.

New canon question

(Anonymous) 2016-04-02 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
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??

(Anonymous) 2016-04-03 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
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?

Lost prompt - Poe is a popstar

(Anonymous) 2016-04-03 09:26 am (UTC)(link)
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!

Time travel fics

(Anonymous) 2016-04-05 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
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

StarkillerBase Nomenclature

(Anonymous) 2016-04-05 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
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.

Unpopular opinion maybe.

(Anonymous) 2016-04-05 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
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.

Entertainment Weekly Article

(Anonymous) 2016-04-05 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
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.
