Day 2 of @commandercodyweek is here! The theme is Origins, and I picked the prompt of learning why Cody has a jetpack instead of a pauldron or kama.
[Image ID: A three panel comic of Commander Cody and Alpha-17 from Star Wars. The first panel is Cody examining an ARC pauldron in 212th gold, glancing at 17 and asking, “You’ve worked with Kenobi, 17 – what will I need?” Over Cody’s shoulder, arms crossed, Alpha replies, “The patience of a kriffing saint.”
The second panel is a screencap of Obi-Wan Kenobi hurling himself out a window from Attack of the Clones. Alpha-17 is drawn in the corner, recalling that incident with a haunted look.
The third panel, Alpha adds, “And a jet pack. Good luck, Kote.” He is holding a jet pack in his hands. Cody is turned to give him a concerned frown, lowering the pauldron in his own hands. End ID.]
Hi, I think that your art is amazing and I hope that you know that the things that you posts are appreciated by others 😁😊
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
bad star wars oc idea: a sith who finds out that the jedi think falling to the dark side shows weakness, and gets so pissed off that they insist on returning to the light solely to prove they can
Though we’re tethered to the story we must tell When I saw you, well I knew we’d tell it well With a whisper, we will tame the vicious seas Like a feather, bringing kingdoms to their knees Excuse me while I lose it over pacific rim AU ( specifically Slow Waters by brigittt which I’ve been reading) bc!! there aren’t enough and it’s just- it’s so good! drifting… the connection, the understanding, piloting giant fucking mechs, fighting monsters with your other half- what is there not to love??
Commander Fox taken off personal security duties for Senators after he leans in real close to Bail Organa's mic and says "I think clones should vote" and watches the Senate assembly implode
Like, Anakin might not know that Rex defected. He promoted Appo but technically Appo’s still second in command of the 501st, under Rex (Rex is still listed as a Captain because Anakin is really really fucking awful at paperwork). And then when Rex doesn’t show up, the obvious conclusion is that he’s dead, but Anakin still doesn’t let him get listed as MIA or KIA because that’s HIS CAPTAIN, dammit, and he’s lost Ahsoka, Padme, Obi-Wan, and literally everything else he ever cared about, he doesn’t want to face having lost Rex, too. And he works better with Rex than with anyone else (mostly because Rex has become accustomed to his bullshit and is Very Good at taking Anakin’s spectacularly stupid nonsense and Making It Work), and really he can’t picture leading the 501st with anyone OTHER than Rex at his side.
And then Rex keeps not coming back. But Vader still doesn’t remove him from the system. For years and years. And eventually everyone stops mentioning it to him because they tend to get force-murdered if they do.
So long story short, Rebels-era Rex is technically the commanding officer of Vader’s Fist, and the system still recognizes his codes and lets him in, and technically if he walked up to any stormtrooper while wearing his old helmet, the networks would recognize him and tell the stormtrooper that’s your CO. So if Rex realized this, he could just waltz in and take control of the most feared stormtrooper legion in the galaxy and as long as Vader wasn’t around, no one would stop him (they’d all be very confused, but they wouldn’t stop him). And maybe vader walks up at this point like “what the hell is going on here” and sees Rex and is just like “REX there you are where the FUCK have you been?” and Rex is like “uuuhhhh i had engine trouble on the way back from Mandalore” and it’s been 20 years but Vader knows how shitty Rex is at piloting and really anything involving flying and ships so he’s like “sounds legit”

Hi, I’d just like to tell you that I think that your art is amazing and your so talented 🥺😊
AHHH thank you, you’re too sweet 🥺💕
Headcanon that when the clone troopers were made into stormtroopers after Order 66, they purposefully missed their shots because it was the most they could do to fight against the influence of the chips, which is what gave stormtroopers the reputation of being bad shots.
a moment I wish we could’ve gotten….
Jedi Master Mace Windu and his padawan, Depa Billaba.
I feel like we always see parents who are 100% super supportive allies, or parents who are horrible and cruel. At least in media or in the most popular stories. But I feel like that ignores just how many people have parents where you just have no idea? And even if you think they’ll accept you on a surface level, you don’t know if they have a breaking point. Especially if you need to go on hrt, or request they change the way they think about and refer to you. Sure they’re liberal and all, or centrists, or “tolerant”, but how far does that stretch?
I think most closeted LGBT+ kids live like this, wading around in the grey area. I’d like it of more of us knew that was normal, I’d like if we talked about it more.
Hi, your drawings are amazing! Thank you for that! Would you be interested in drawing a soft codywan in a short break between fights?
Aaah, thank you so much! I’m really glad you like my stuff. And oh boy, I sure am interested!
It did not come out quite as soft as I’d planned, but I’m sure Cody only nags because he cares. :)
Glitch was supposed to be a throwaway character but now I’m Attached™️ and in the process of making him a whole squad.
Empire-controlled Kamino is a lot stricter than in the Jedi days, no hair cuts, no tattoos, so when he’s busted out he absolutely goes wild. At one point Waxer has to intervene because he’s fried his hair from bleaching and re-dying it too many times (as a medic he should know better but...), so he settles on shaving different patterns into the side.
I just finished re-reading A Star to Steer By for the fourth (fifth? maybe?) time and I just had to draw Ahsoka and Host Echo.
Of course they had to be in Ahsoka’s signature pose 😁
Alright, so I might have been slightly obsessed with Cody since he went from stoic professional to spin-kicking a droid within the first 5 minutes of the pilot movie.
So I just moved which has basically put my entire life on hiatus for the past month, but I’m finally unpacked. I posted a short interlude chapter for WDID and I have some art in the works.
Feels good man.
headcanon: Wolffe is even worse than Plo about adopting things, he’s just much better at hiding it
FINALLY SOME GOOD FUCKING NEWS

I wanted to tag a background clone/clone relationship so folks could avoid the fic if they wanted, and my dumb ass didn’t realize I could put it in the general tags instead of the ship tags. I am Big Dumb™️
The Star Wars fandom straight up writes some of the best gen fic I’ve ever read. The world building and characterization is just *chef’s kiss*.
Another thing I love about The Clone Wars is that it actually shows Obi-Wan’s darker side at times.
Warden Agruss is undeniably a bastard - even so, the way Obi-Wan smiles when he turns to Rex is definitely something that doesn’t exactly fit the Jedi Code.
Also, this? Damn. Damnnnnn. We know Obi-Wan is one of the most powerful Jedi in the Order, yet we rarely see him use the Force in a way like this. It’s far more aggressive than the abilities we’ve seen him using.
And here, just for a moment, we see Obi-Wan giving way to his rage. You can see it in his movements - they’re wider, more aggressive, less balanced than the traditional Soresu we’re used to seeing. Maul mentions it explicitly: “Your rage has unbalanced you. That is not the Jedi way, is it?”
In conclusion, damn.
if you need more proof of how much of an idiot i am, just know that i stayed up till o-dark-thirty last night making blueprints and cutaway diagrams of the Jedi Temple in microsoft excel
