Here's a handful of scene studies! Drawing a certain baby bantha recently made me want to revisit the scenes from the script exerpt where Knox first meets the ottaburas. So here he is meeting all sorts of animal friends, including seeing baby Thea for the first time.
In honor of Disability Pride Month, here's part 1 of a look at some of the characters in the Sundown story that have disabilities! First up is Drums.
Drums received severe electrocution injuries during a mission while trying to disarm a generator. As a result of the injury, Drums sustained serious (but not complete) hearing loss in his right ear, gained a tremor in his right hand that manifests when trying to perform tasks requiring fine motor skills, and began exhibiting a marked, intermittent loss of focus he later started referring to as bouts of "brain fog". In addition, he began experiencing painful flareups around the areas with scaring.
Initially, Drums (and his brothers) kept his symptoms strictly under wraps out of concern of him being pulled from the squad. This fear kept Drums from seeking treatment of any kind, and his symptoms began to worsen as a result. This caused a rapid loss of function, and contributed to a sharp decline in Drums' confidence and self esteem. The compounding pain of untreated injuries and pressure of not wanting to be discovered eventually pulled Drums into a deep depressive episode.
Only after becoming a Shadow Trooper and receiving help from Nitsani did he get to a point where he felt safe enough to not hide his condition any longer. It wasn't easy for him to accept help, but he eventually did and soon acquired a hearing aid, a special set of tools with weighted handles that mitigate the tremors in his right hand, and medication to help with the flareups. These aids and treatments significantly improved his quality of life and gave him the resources he needed to begin effectively managing his condition.

Hey, if you're a fic writer and a character speaks in a different language, you don't just have to add the translation in the notes. Use the following HTML coding to add 'text on hover' to the word(s). If the reader is on a computer they can hover over the text to see the translation.
<div title="This is the text in the box!">This is the text that shows in your fic!</div>
Here are some examples from a fic on my AO3.
This coding here <div title="a fool, idiot (lit. emptyhead)">Eyn utreekov</div> will show this on hover.
This next example shows that you can add a lot of text. The formatting is the same as above.
PS: When doing this, there may be spacing issues, but you can edit the text through AO3's html or rich text editor. From there you can add italics (like I did), bold, etc, and fix any weird spacing issues. Just be careful not to delete the coding that you worked so hard on 😂
this came to me this morning while I was supposed to be working, lemme know if this has been done before 😂😂😂
