I have been turning the issue of the new DISNEY!SW canon’s The High Republic over and over in my mind, trying to decide if I even want to mess with it and it’s three phases or not. My main issue with the entire concept is that I’m honestly just not that thrilled with the way the whole thing hinges on rewriting George Lucas’ canon-established “ ( Read more... )

Okay, so I know that heights, in SW, are kind of farkled for prequel characters, since a lot of them are played by different actors/actresses than originally established said characters in the OT, but for fraks's sakes, folks, WTF is Mon Mothma listed as being CONSIDERABLY SHORTER (AT LEAST an ENTIRE foot!) than BOTH of the actresses who've played ( Read more... )

For the record, the sigil/symbol/standard of Clan Kryze does NOT seem to be recorded anywhere in SW canon (DISNEY or otherwise), even though we know that the various clans had such symbols (hence, the rather misshapen/lumpy/ugly symbol https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/7/72/Mandalorian_Death_Watch_%28Vizsla%29_symbol.png/revision/ ( Read more... )

Oh, gods, I apologise so many times to the people responsible for the arcmaiden Tumblr account. I’d make a link here to the actual account but I’m so stupidly tired and incompetent when it comes to Tumblr things that I honestly have no idea how to do it. https://arcmaiden.tumblr.com/ I like sent ten or twenty (maybe more?) asks in a row that were ( Read more... )

Again, I made one response per day for the Handmaiden Project in 2018 and the headings are in response to the challenges for that day so it should be fairly obvious to folks what they were, even if there's no complete list anymore but what I copied and pasted in a document.
