This reminded me of one of my D&D game nights đ.
My party and I transplanted some trees around the border of a village to help (hopefully) make another barrier against the zombies that had been hanging around. When we went back to the village a month later in the storyline, well... The trees had destroyed the village and had multiplied to a decent sized forest. And as the only nature inclined character...the others sent me to try and communicate with the trees...it didn't go well, for the rest of my party at least.
If there are trees you arenât alone
I need something good pls đđ»đđ»đ„ș
If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.
Ok so hear me out here.
The knights of Ren totally love Lieutenant Mitaka
Crazy, I know but just listen up.
Part one
I like to think that Mitaka is a great baker. (Like amazing cookies, bomb pastries etc) and he leaves them in the officer common area for others to enjoy.
Now the knights donât usually visit the common area. Why would they, they donât need to. But anyways they do one time and the see this chocolate chip cookies laying there on the table. And them being the people they are they all take one because food.
They get to eating them and theyâre like mmmmm! These are really good!
And they want to find out who made them so they harass the next unexpecting officer on break to see who made the melt in your mouth fluffy goodness.
And the officer is just like oh yeah mitaka made those. He makes them every Thursday to bring in just for a fun treat.
And the Knights are impressed. The chefs on the ship are good but theyâre not this good.
So now theyâre off to find the lil lieutenant baker.
And when they find him heâs supper scarred.
Why are six big burly looking men suddenly standing in his office with serious looks on their faces. Has he done something wrong?
So mitaka stutters out a l-listen kn-kn-knights....
And it takes all the power of the knights not to burst into to laughter because it looks as though mitaka might pee himself.
One of them finally speaks up and says we really like your baking man. Itâs great, like you have a talent.
Mitaka is stunned but with a slight blush and a beaming smile he thanks the knights. He says he learned to bake from his mom and that he quite enjoys doing it.
The knights inform him that they have a mission tomorrow. Not a huge important one but one where they still have to leave the ship for a few days. That asked him to make them some cookies for theyâre trip. Of course Mitaka agrees with a swift nod. He assured them he will bake them a batch to take with them.
Next day rolls around and low and behold before they disembark on their mission mitaka hands each of them a quart bag of cookies.
Now since they have masks on you canât see theyâre bright smiles and shiny eyes. But they each thank mitaka and give him a small nod before they head to theyâre to ship and leave.
Excuse me while I go cry now đđđ
Another reasons clones get unique hair cuts and tattoos on their faces (besides being individuals) is so when they look at their fallen brothers they donât have to see their own face.
âBe careful who you trust, Sergeant. People you know can hurt you the most.â
When I say âFanfiction is freeâ part of what Iâm saying is yes, you did not pay for the thing.
But I saw a comment from someone that made me realize the rest of the intention behind these words is being lost.
Fanfiction is provided for free, but it is not produced for free.
Authors pay their effort, including physical and emotional and mental. Authors pay their time, in planning the story (mental time) and writing the story (physical time). Sometimes itâs less than an hour for something quick and dirty, like askbox prompts. Sometimes itâs years of their lives in epic fic hundreds of thousands of words long. Authors pay additional time to alpha read their own stories, trying to make sure that theyâre free of SPAG errors and make sense and sound good. Beta readers pay their time and effort alongside the authors for editing the stories. Authors pay for posting their stories with all of the anxieties that come from allowing their work - which to this point they have invested all of the above - into the public eye because while it has certainly cost them a good amount to produce the story, fandom history has proved that many other people out there enjoy fanfiction, and authors believe that at least someone else will enjoy their story, too.
What I am saying when I say âfanfiction is freeâ is that it costs the writers a lot of something in order to produce it. A lot has already been paid into a piece of fanfiction by the time it is available for readers to read. The expense of fanfiction creation is, by and large, resting squarely atop the shoulders of writers.
What I am saying when I say âfanfiction is freeâ is that readers donât have to pay the cost of creating fanfiction.
What I am saying when I say âfanfiction is freeâ is that readers donât have to pay in anything - not time, not money, not effort, not anything - in order for fanfiction to be created. Itâs a donation. Itâs a gift. Itâs available for you to take or leave, at the expense of someone else.
Writers have, for a very long time, requested donations of one thing as remuneration for everything they put into making fanfiction: comments. Authors have asked, in so many different iterations: âIf you have consumed what I have labored and invested in to create and if you have found any enjoyment in it, please tell me, so that I can recharge enough to do this again.â Some of them may recharge on critical comments, but most of us donât because weâve already paid everything we want to pay to create the story.
What I am saying when I say âfanfiction is freeâ isnât just that it doesnât cost you any money. I am saying âPlease respect the time and effort you didnât have to pay into creating this thing you enjoyed, by respecting the individual creatorâs requests.â
What I am saying when I say âfanfiction is freeâ is âbe kind to authors, they have paid a lot for this gift theyâre sharing with all of us, and they deserve to feel like it was worth it.â
What I am saying when I say âfanfiction is freeâ is âplease donât charge authors more time and emotional effort than what theyâve already provided you at no absolute cost.â
Iâm not saying any of this to argue. Itâs a fact that authors pay into providing fanfiction. They do it for fun. They do it out of love. They do it because they enjoy writing. No one is making them do it. No one is paying them to start or finish the story. That doesnât mean itâs not WORK. And the only return they get on what they put into the story is the kindness of strangers that invest a little bit back by leaving a nice comment. That is why they stay, that is why they do it again, that is why we have fanfiction.
What I am saying when I say âfanfiction is freeâ is âplease donât be the one charging authors so much more that they leave.â
What I am saying when I say âfanfiction is freeâ is âplease keep it that way.â

[Image ID: Digital painting of Commander Fox and Riyo Chuchi from Star Wars: the Clone Wars. They are depicted standing in a Coruscant alleyway, shown facing one another from the knees up. Riyo wears a light purple dress with gold ornamentation and a dark indigo shawl with sweeping designs. Her headpiece and hairstyle is similar to hers in the Orto Plutonia arc, added teal beads the only difference. She is on the left and looking up at Commander Fox, who is in his standard Coruscant Guard Armor sans helmet. Riyo looks concerned, while Fox is downcast. The two are holding hands. End ID.] Thanks to @padmeâamygdala for letting me add their image ID to this post!
This doubles as fanart from @amukmukâs amazing fic, âPerception,â and as a contribution to day six (Secret: private, secluded, undercover) of @foxiyoweek. :)
I wonât spoil anything, but in this scene, Fox was just reminded of how low many peopleâs opinions of clones are. It makes me angry and breaks my heart at the same time. T____T
I had sooo much fun with the paint job on Foxâs Phase I armor, and playing around with Riyoâs fancy outfit was challenging but also a good time!

Hello! For your Good Omens requests, how about an Aziraphale x Reader x Crowley where they teach the reader how to drive in the Bentley? I think itâs fun to think about the different ways the Bentley reacts to Azi and Crowley, and what relationship it might have with reader! Also I need something lighthearted and fluffy after season 2 :(
Thanks!
of course! my pleasure I love fluffy pieces like this đ
Crowley x reader x Aziraphale (good omens)
âDonât be afraid,â encourages Aziraphale, âit really is a lovely little car.â
âMy car is neither lovely nor little. It is a classic, it is worth over half a million by now, and it is made for terrorising pensioners on A-roads,â Crowley snaps back.Â
âAlright, Iâm getting out ââ you begin, but as you go to move youâre suddenly met with both of them begging you not to and apologising.Â
Youâve had your eye on driving the Bentley for a while, but sort of in the same way someone walking past a rottweiler in a front garden every day might have an idea to reach over and give it a scratch. Youâre fascinated but aware that it could be very dangerous.Â
Crowley loves you but wasnât too sure about the idea of letting a human drive his prized possession. Luckily Aziraphale is very good at just telling Crowley what is going to happen rather than asking his permission; for domestic matters like these, anyway. So your devil reluctantly agreed on the condition he was there to supervise - and Aziraphale didnât want to miss the fun.Â
Besides, in a more practical sense, what if both of them were unable to drive and you needed to get them somewhere? Crowley refuses to get in your Hyundai. There needs to be a backup plan.Â
âJust be gentle,â Aziraphale suggests.Â
âBut assertive,â Crowley adds quickly.Â
âAlright. Gentle but assertive. Just like in bed,â you mutter. Crowley snorts and Aziraphale makes a little noise in the back of his throat.Â
You turn on the ignition, listening to the way it starts immediately. Firmly grip the wheel in one hand and the gearstick in the other.Â
âPlease be kind to me,â you mutter to the dashboard, âI think youâre a gorgeous, gorgeous car, and I want us to enjoy being around each other. Plus Iâll make sure to get you that nice wax Crowley only buys as a treat.â
The engine revs a little on its own, and you find first gear is engaged automatically.Â
âOh!â you beam as your favourite band begins to play on the radio, âYou're right Aziraphale, this is lovely.â
Crowley is left sputtering with indignation as you pull away from the kerb.Â

Twins Cutthroat and Clicker were some of the first troopers assigned to the Coruscant Guard under the command of Marshal Commander Fox | CC-1010. Two and a half months into the war Cutthroat and Clicker showed an incredible amount of potential to Marshal Commander Fox and they were nominated for Alpha-17âs intensive ARC trooper program, making them the first two (non staff officer) Coruscant Guard members to become ARC Troopers.
âHey vod-âÂ
âYeah?â
âSome nattie is looking at us.âÂ
âYeah?âÂ
[DO NOT REPOST]
Consequences don't just fall to the perpetrators. You learn a new name.
Phew! I was sweating over this one, I hope you all enjoy it. One more chapter to go before this story is wrapped up. All my love, appreciation, gratitude, and smooches to my two lovely betas, Soleil and SentientCave.
