S2E8: echo + omega

omg

"You must choose the Force, with your whole heart. To do this, you must learn, again, to listen. To hear the world, the world outside of your own emotions"

ugh i love Tech so much and relate to him on an emotional level, ESPECIALLY in the crossing when he’s speaking to Omega in the cave, saying just because he doesn’t express things, doesn’t mean he doesn’t necessarily feel them too AND I GET THAT!! (which is also another reason why the crossing is one of my favorite episodes)

like,, if i have problems i won’t talk about them and i will pray that someone else then asks if im okay so i have an excuse to actaully talk

i struggle talking to people/expressing things/portraying emotions and i genuinely hate that about myself but i love seeing that represented in my favorite thing ever, and in a character like Tech

if only he wasn’t killed off

anyway im super upset rn so this was just yap 🤌

something that i’ve realized about why tech means so much to me as an autistic person…

in sci-fi/fantasy-type media, seeing my autistic traits in a character is rare (that’s not really a secret—we all know that there isn’t enough autism representation in the media). BUT, when there is a character with traits i relate to, it is often an alien.

think mantis or drax from guardians of the galaxy. sure, they’re main characters, but their traits that feel relatable to me are made to be a joke, and they’re like… literally aliens. it’s common in media for aliens to miss sarcasm and social cues, to be blunt, things like that. things that are also autistic traits.

so, i watch guardians of the galaxy and see myself in the aliens, the outcasts, the ones who don’t fit the same as the others because they are literally not human. this doesn’t apply to all aliens ofc but my point stands.

tech, on the other hand, is just… different. he thinks and acts differently, as do the rest of the batch, and all their differences are so celebrated. i mean, aside from that kinda being the point of the show, they’re also portraying his differences as who he is, and using it as a tool for him. which i love. he’s not an alien species. he’s not a joke (he’s teased by his brothers, but that’s just siblings lol).

(also this isn’t to say that drax and mantis are bad characters or anything. i love them and find them hilarious.)

anyway. i’ve been thinking a lot about tech lately and why he means the actual world to me, and this whole thing hasn’t left my head in days so i’m making a post about it. hopefully it resonates with someone😂

Thanks for the tag!!

I have no idea whatsoever if my blog has like a vibe so I tried lmao

NPT: @zahmaddog @w3rd0-artist @slamophile (plus anyone else bc i don’t know anyone else)

So I found a tag game that looked fun

also the teeth necklace is supposed to represent cursedblr lol

So um me and my friend were playing a roblox drawing game because we were bored lastnight andd

The theme/prompt thingy was ‘Wolfpack’ and i instantly thought of the Wolfpack obvs!!!

So I drew a 104th trooper and Plo, and wrote ‘Plo’s bros’ and my friend was not impressed (they also accidentally made it gay by putting a heart between the trooper and Plo but i forgive them cause they know nothing abt Star Wars)

They said the green thing at the bottom was meant to be Grogu. I don’t even know.

Also don’t judge us for playing roblox it was very late and we were very bored

I’ve had a couple of asks sitting in my inbox asking for some Sabine, so shoutout to those guys! It’s taken me so long to get around to drawing her cause I always kinda wanted to tweak her design a bit and add a little bit of the way I headcanon her to be. So here’s a start!

Any guy can be a babygirl but it takes a man five elite clone commandos to be a single mother

i love this

FINALLY - SEC GEN SILLY SQUAD

Started this months ago and never fucking finished it until now. Anywho, here are the sillies and their kiddos some ten(ish) years or so after Mt. Tantiss.

They are my babies and I absolutely adore them. I had a love/hate relationship with coming up with their outfits. I'm the worst when it comes to designing outfits, but it was fun implementing the wave motif of the Pabu citizen's clothing into some of them :)

Anyways, without further ado, the silly squad families and a few things about them! Feel free to ask questions or anything about any of them :D

Guardians Family: The Yuns

Later down the line, Hunter and Jung get (platonically) married and are the last to do so within the squad

Before that, they adopt Mox and Sami into their family - with Mox taking after Hunter and Sami becoming a sort of padawan for Jung

After getting married, they adopt Huihana who was orphaned after her parents were sadly lost at sea

Huihana is half human and half Mirialan - with her name meaning "lily/lotus" in Māori and 'Hana' meaning "one" in Korean

Mox gets the Pantoran clan tattoos to match with Sami and Sami adds on some extra tattoos in honor of Jung

Hunter and Jung do emotionally adopt a lot of the kiddos around the island though and will usually have a duckling trail following them around

Jung starts to find his voice again and he takes it upon himself to help out and train any of the Force sensitive kiddos on Pabu

Hunter also becomes something of a teacher as well but more so with life/combat skills until Huihana comes into the picture and he becomes content with being a stay at home dad

Occasionally Mox will go with Omega to do Rebellion work every now and then, but he prefers staying and helping out where he can on Pabu

The kids call Hunter "Dad" and Jung "Seon"

Scompscope Family: The Cossas

Third of the squad to get married - as soon as they're able to take a break from Rebellion stuff they decide better late than never and that they deserve something nice like that

But before that, they unofficially adopt Deke after Echo takes him under his wing and Deke helps them out with Rebellion stuff

Later on, Viram and Echo have Tikan and Zisanu who aren't old enough to help out yet but want to

Rex is their godfather that they jokingly call "Grandpa" - Echo finds this hilarious, Rex does not

The boys are also known as "Dee," "Tee," and "Zee"

Tika[n] means 'Heavy' in Tsonga while Zisanu means 'Five' in Chichewa in honor of Hevy and Fives

Echo and Viram still do Rebellion work here and there whenever Rex needs them, but after awhile Viram starts to stay on Pabu a little more to spend time with her boys and eventually Echo does the same

Then on Pabu, Viram does work at the clinic while Echo helps were he can and still aids the Rebellion, albeit remotely

In his place though, Deke joins the rebellion and comes back every now and then with his cousins

The kids call Echo "Dad" and Viram "Ma"

Starburst Family: The Nultezes

Wrecker and Khea are the first to get married and spontaneously do so literally like a month or two after Tantiss

Itri is a Foundling that Khea adopted prior to reuniting with Wrecker on Pabu and also decides to adopt Stak as a Foundling as well (Look, having a clone and a Mandalorian as parents just means you're going to have a shitton of kids both human and furbabies)

Itri means route/way in Latin and also meaning "star" in Tamazight; which fits the star/starpaths/way motifs that stem from Khea's background

Marama and Maia are twins and Elio is the (current) youngest

Maia meaning "brave/confident" in Māori, Marama means "moon/bright" in Māori, while Elio means "sun" from Greek roots

They essentially run a little farm on the island with all of the pets they've adopted and their kids love to garden as well

Khea and Wrecker also run a little auto shop on the side and fix up things around Pabu to keep busy

Their home essentially becomes a sanctuary within the sanctuary that is Pabu; they welcome anyone and everyone and always have good food and a place to stay at their place

Stak helps out with the Rebellion alongside his cousins and Itri wants to do the same, though she's not quite old enough yet

The kids call Wrecker "Pa/Buir" and Khea "Buir/Amá"

TechPhee Family: The Genoas

Second of the squad to get married - after Tech recovers from everything, Phee makes sure that he doesn't get away from her again

Shortly after they have Vela (farsighted) and then Rangi (nearsighted)

Vela means "viligant/watchful" but it's also the name of a constellation taken directly from the Latin word for the sail of a ship (which is fitting considering Phee is a pirate and Tech and her are both phenomenal pilots)

Rangi means "Sky/heavens" in Māori (again, fitting that pilot thing)

Rangi is HEAVILY inspired by Mutant Mayhem Donnie and I would totally have Micah Abbey voice him as a voice claim

Vela absolutely loves cartography and topography while Rangi is a big fan of entomology and riot racing

They mostly live out of Phee's ship and call it home, but they do have a place to stay on Pabu whenever they visit

They're always bringing back cool stories and souvenirs from their travels for all their nieces and nephews/cousins

They're a family to be reckoned with, these kids are the best parts of their parents all mixed into one - their only weakness is losing their glasses and even then it's a momentary set back

Phee is still a liberator of ancient wonders, but now they more so help out with the Rebellion

The kids call Tech "Dad" and Phee "Mom/Ma"

Sharpshooter Family: The Marrs

Second to last of the squad to get married because Tay was taking too long to ask so Crosshair asked for him

Also they take a LONG time to adjust to a civilian life they're both reeling with the trauma of what they'd endured and the feeling of finally being free from "the machine"

Last ones to adopt though because Tay was always wary about kids but didn't have a choice when Crosshair came back one day with Akona-Mae after helping Echo out with a mission

Akona is a hybrid; she's half Nautolan and half Pantoran and was adopted when she was around 2 years old

The "Mae" part of her name comes from "May"Day in honor of the Commander while Akona means "to enthuse" in Māori

Akona is non verbal, she loves to bite, and her dads are both super protective of her while spoiling her rotten

Ignore the fact that she's a six-year old with a tattoo - her dad is Crosshair, okay?

Speaking of tattoo, she gets the usual "clan tattoo" that the Pantorans have to match Crosshair and Tay gets something similar as well

They're a family of fishermen with a place close by the shore/docks - Tay and Akona are both amphibious races so they really enjoy living on Pabu

Rarely, Akona will call Crosshair "Pa" and Tay "Apá" verbally but usually when she's addressing them she'll tap her tattoo for Crosshair and tug at her front two tendrils for Tay

To be completely honest with you, these are probably not the final drafts. I have an oc who is involved in Jung's story that I may or may not add to his family (depending on whether or not I kill off that character) and I've been slowly liking the idea of Wrecker and Khea being in a poly relationship with another OC but I haven't finalized a design for him, so until then it's just the two of them for now. Later on I'll probably add him to the family once I figure out what he looks like :)

made a bluesky lmao

lmao

follow me we can be friends

thank u for this 🙏🙏

needed a chance to yap about my ocs today buttt im specifically gonna choose the one that actually has art to go with her (or art wips at least)

This is Lumiya Khadavo!! She’s a Togruta and works in the rebellion, she was one of the very few who managed to survive the battle of Scarif (she was on ground assault so hell knows how she managed it)

A heap of her info is very much a wip, so anything following might not make any sense whatsoever

She has a prosthetic leg, it was paralysed when her family was sold to Zyggerian Slavers, and eventually she got it amputated in like a tattoo shop or something (still working on her backstory)

I posted a lil crappy doodle comic with her in it earlier today (plus her boyfriend and his little cousin but they don’t matter rn) when she was being a professional worrier <3

All of the art I’ve made with her is a wip, I tried to render a piece today and went through the five stages of grief all at once, it wasn’t fun believe me)

I could go on for weeks but I think I’ve spoken enough 🙏🙏

Welcome back to another OC Sunday Spotlight!

Aka the time in which every Sunday I'll come up with a prompt and anyone and everyone has the opportunity to answer with as many OCs as they wish!

You can reblog this post, answer in the comments, or come up with your own post to answer the prompts! And feel free to submit prompts as well!

It's an excuse to yap about your OCs so feel free to do so! Add pictures, links, or anything else regarding the OC in the spotlight if you'd like! And in addition, feel free to tag any mutuals to hop on the stage :D

Let's get this show started!

SPOTLIGHT ON: WIP OC(s)!

Here are mine!

The beginnings of what I'm calling...

♠️♥️ Deck Squad! ♦️♣️

🃏 All based off of cards in a deck (plus Uno and Wild Card)

🃏 But I have no idea what their armor color is going to be yet :( or how it'll be designed (Suggestions are VERY welcomed!!)

🃏I do want to do something with the number "52" though (like 52nd Battalion or something) since that's how many cards are in a deck

🃏I want them to do cool undercover stuff, like in casinos or whatever - something like that - to match that Ocean's 11 type aesthetic

🃏More info about them individually can be found here! Or just ask me questions about them if you'd like :D

💫 Check out last week's prompt! 💫 Join the tag list here!
