everyone say one nice thing about zeb. Go 🫵

Food-related thoughts, courtesy of chatter with @mystical-salamander:

Parts of Coruscant, especially in the extra-dense areas, don't have any cooking implements in the apartments besides a microwave and small fridge. (Hot plates are a fire hazard.) Instead of cooking for themselves, residents visit food vendors or buy microwave meals. Prepackaged snacks that don't require refrigeration are also common.

You know those 'microwave hacks' and 'MRE hacks' and 'prison food hacks?' That's the kind of "cooking" that Kallus knows.

In contrast, Zeb learned how to cook both at home and at school, and had an abundance of fresh food to work with. Lasan's dominant government put out standardized cookbooks of healthy, easy to make meals for the home ec classes. These standard meals often vary, changed to match regional tastes, in individual schools.

The Wookies, being close allies and intellectual partners with Lasan, have these cookbooks saved as part of their Lasani Remembrance Archives. Alderaan also made a habit of trying to preserve at-risk cultures, and had copies in their own archives.

There's a big part of the holonet devoted to saving old recipes and adapting them to new circumstances--the Lasani diaspora is just one of many peoples trying to cope with being away from 'home.'

Zeb looks for Lasani recipes and subsitutions for Lasani spices, of course, but he also searches for recipes from Ryloth, Mandalore, and--the hardest to find--the Jedi Temple. When a Spectre is feeling particularly down, Zeb will make them something from their home to cheer them up.

I have moar questions for the OTP + CHARACTER ASK because I really wanna pick your brain (only if you want!!). So: 16, 18 and 19 C:

bestie, i love when people pick my brain.

16 - covers

This one is so straightforward to me. Zeb is covered in fur and rarely needs covers (until Hoth). Kallus has minimal fur and frequently feels like the chill never left him after Bahryn (this I think is why he's still wearing a quilted jacket on the humid rainforest that is Yavin IV). It's less that Kallus hogs the covers and more that Zeb gives them to him and then wraps around him too (until Hoth, when Zeb valiantly tries to steal some back, or at least cuddle close enough to Kal that they can reasonably share the covers).

18 - drunk

They're both big lads so I think they both have a pretty high tolerance for how much alcohol they can consume. Where they differ is Zeb still has a few stone on Kallus, so he can drink more without feeling it as much, but Kallus is also incredible at still appearing sober when he's deep into his cups. Kal started drinking early and his time rising through ISB meant he got really good at lying, so if you aren't super close with him you may not even realize the glass in front of him is number 4 and not him still nursing the first one. But those who are close to him, namely Zeb but the rest of the Ghost crew too, can pick up on little tells. He laughs a bit more freely, he's even snarkier than usual, sometimes he gets flushed. Because he's an adult, he knows not to get into the rowdy shenanigans he used to as a teen, but sometimes there's a glint in his eye and he gets tempted to pickpocket or climb the side of the temple or drag Zeb to dance with him (see: makeout on the dance floor). If he's playing sabacc, though, he lets his opponents think he's way more drunk than he is and swindles them out of their credits.

Zeb gets more outgoing and gregarious, which is a freedom that comes with joining the Rebellion and having a relatively safe home base. Every time he's drunk he makes new friends, and for a lot of those new friends it's the first time they see Zeb as someone who's approachable and not scary. He's relaxed and has his arms draped over the back of the booth, but when the mood strikes him he can get rowdy and wrastle with people. He never starts a fight though.

The two of them drinking together is honestly not much different than them relaxing at other times. They're old men (by Rebellion nightlife standards); they aren't trying to give themselves hangovers tomorrow. But they will sit shoulder-to-shoulder for an entire night, having quiet side conversations and making the rest of their table think they're already together when neither of them has as much as thought about it.

When only one has been drinking, both have been known to fireman carry the other back to their bunk.

19 - fights

Before they're together, it's really small stuff mostly (I know you used my repair kit, now where did you karking put it), but sometimes it's really big stuff, along the lines of who is allowed to forgive whom and for what. Kallus doesn't feel worthy of Zeb's forgiveness for Lasan; Zeb doesn't feel worthy of Kallus' forgiveness for not getting him off the Chimaera sooner. But they work through it. They talk to each other, even if they go in circles for a while, and they trust each other.

They're later fights are even more hypocritical. They always yell at each other when there was a close call or when one of them did something reckless, even though they both know they would've done the same thing if it meant saving the rest of the ship or not sacrificing the mission. Oooohhh but these can be knock down drag out fights. They say horrible things to each other because they know each other so well and know their pressure points, then immediately regret it. These fights don't happen often, but they require a cool-off period. Zeb stays with Hera, Kallus stays with Cassian or Sabine if she has her own quarters. But even after a fight like this, they still can talk it out and repair it.

On Lira San, the fights go back to "where did you put the damn vegetable peeler."

any tips 4 art

The person I reblogged this from is awesome as fuck.

dnp made me believe in love so hard that now, i see a married couple and i’m like “yeah, but they don’t have what dan and phil have”

How about another Lyste AU because I feel like some crack.

Imagine we have Kallus somewhere on a mission when he runs into Lyste and decides that maybe he messed things up for Lyste the first time but he can do right by him now. So he tries to recruit him and it actually works because Lyste has been having doubts about the Empire after the way they treated him because of his blunder (not well). And all is well and good until it turns out they have to use some advanced maneuvering to get away from the Empire which is fine for Kallus, he's used to it, but not for Lyste.

Oh boy, not for Lyste.

So by the time they get back to the base Kallus is overjoyed with himself. He's just snagged his first recruit and he made it up to Lyste.

And next to him.

Next to him is the most traumatized human being you've ever seen. Someone who looks like they've been dragged through hell and back (because they have) with the thousand yard stare to match.

They ask him what he wants to do to help and he just says he wants to stack crates for a while. Or something like that. There's silence and someone goes to ask but then they take one look at him and decide that yeah, okay, maybe they should let the guy stack crates for a while. Or find him some therapy.

Needless to say, no one wants to go on missions with Kallus after that.

Kallus: "Alright here's what we're gonna do. We're taking the Senator hostage."

Lyste: "Wh-?? Can't we just sneak in and steal a ship or something?"

Kallus: "Security's too tight for that and I don't feel like it. Let's go."

(later)

Kallus: "Change of plans. I'm taking you hostage instead."

Lyste: "?????"

Kallus, loudly: "Nobody move or I blow this civilian's head off!" (to Lyste) "Act like a civilian."

Lyste, hysterical: "I'm panicking, what more do you want me to do???"

Kallus: "I need someone for an infiltration mission. Who wants to volunteer? Lys-"

Lyste: tripping over tables and chairs to get away

Kallus: ...

Kallus: Was it something I said?
