Just realized there’s two genres of lesbian Star Wars ships I have

1. Built on deep love and respect. Trust each other the most out of anyone. However even that isn’t enough, circumstances forced them apart, and they have to let the girl go for the sake of their job, life and a little bit for the mental health but a part of you still loves them despite everything and know you always will, it’s just right person wrong time

Ex: Sabédala, VelCinta, Barrisokka and Kaesoka, Blyla (I saw lesbian Blyla and transbian Bly and I’m obsessed now), Syl and Jordanna would fall into this but they stopped being disaster lesbians long enough to have actually fixed it

2. Started as enemies but felt a deep kinship despite that tension, slow burn, found their home in each other, despite everything going against them, including their own self-sabotaging, they are able to push through and make it work

Ex: WolfWren, Yrichass, Revan x Bastila, Saché x Yané, Aphra and Sana and/or Magna will probably end up here

#I’m gonna have to wait and see on Mralisola because that could go either way based on where they are now #Sabédala #VelCinta #BarriSokka #Kaesokka #Blyla #WolfWren #Revastila #Yrica x Chass #Doctor Aphra

Doctor Aphra (2020) #31 ALL MADE ONE An uneasy truce between Aphra and the Spark brought the dual-inhabited body of the archaeologist to the Amaxine Station. There, Aphra came face-to-face with Darth Vader. After an intense battle, Aphra and the Spark were finally separated, with the good Doctor saying goodbye to the locked-away spirit of Miril. Now it's time for Doctor Chelli Aphra to get her life back on track…. Writer: Alyssa Wong Artist: Minkyu Jung Letterer: Joe Caramagna Colorist: Rachelle Rosenberg Cover artist: Rachael Stott Editor: Mark Paniccia Publication date: May 3, 2023 We're finally beyond the Spark Eternal storyline, but much in the way that Jean Luc Picard never truly got over his assimilation by the Borg, so you have to believe it will be with Aphra as her similarly invasive coercion is simply too huge an event to just forget. We're with her at Mareti Base on Hiorin in the Outer Rim, and as Chelli checks the mark left behind by the Spark she walks back into a dimly lit room where Ariole Yu, Just Lucky, Magna Tolvan, Eustacia Okka, her father Korin Aphra, Detta Yao, Sana Starros and Kho Phon Farrus sit waiting. What they don't expect is Aphra to tear into them, telling them to go home, help the rebellion, whatever they want. Magna is annoyed, while Kho defends herself when accused by Aphra of risking everything to crack the secrets of the Ascendant. As Korin calms the tension somewhat, Aphra reminds them that she didn't ask them to risk their lives, to which Magna replies that no, she didn't - Sana Starros did. Frustrated, Tolvan walks away and Sana tells Chelli to go after her and apologise, and following close behind we learn that Sana orchestrated the situation so she was there with Tolvan, the two people Aphra loves the most. Magna and Chelli speak, Aphra as cutting as ever as she refuses to aplogise for their night together back in issue #39 of the orignal run of Doctor Aphra, claiming she did it to protect Manga and keep Vader away. Chelli knows Magna is leaving and wants their last memory to not be one of them fighting, but Tolvan makes it clear that the rebellion will always be her priority just as Aphra will always choose herself. [gallery link="file" size="large" columns="2" ids="143933,137924"] Back with the group, Korrin and Eustacia discuss the Shadow University while Detta and Kho tussle before kissing, the pre-emptor to the door locking as Just Lucky and Ariole walk by and have their own moment, Lucky propositioning Ariole as they too kiss. We cut to Sana and Aphra, and after explaining a thousand reasons why she should run for the hills, Sana tells Aphra she loves her and they also kiss. However, Sana then explains why she has to go, how she'd go through it all again but doesn't believe Aphra would do the same, or even tell Starros that she loves her in return, which Aphra can't do. We leave a broken Aphra as we shift location to Numidian Prime a while later and Luke Skywalker walking back to his X-Wing where R2-D2 waits. However, the droid is on his side and as Luke checks closer a cannister opens and smoke plumes out, knocking Luke unconscious as Aphra steps in looking for 'a little adventure'. This is certainly a reset, and while very little happens in the issue there's certainly plenty to ponder. Magna Tolvan has left, Detta and Kho are a couple, as are Just Lucky and Ariole. Even Korrin and Eustacia are planning to work together, but it's the love life of Aphra that drives this issue and leaving her bereft after Sana leaves (quite possibly for the events of her currently ongoing mini series) she appears to be turning her attentions back to her stock-in-trade and luring Luke into helping her achieve it. There needed to be a tonal break between the Spark Eternal storyline and whatever comes next, and again the consistent thread was everyone highlighting what a thoroughly lousy person they believe Aphra is. Of course, as a reader we can see things in Chelli

her companions cannot (especially her lack of worth, something she often states but her group clearly don't believe she means), but the trick of Alyssa Wongs writing is to in turn take us to ground level to show us how she is seen by everyone around her. On that basis, she really is a contradictory, hypocritical, complusive, manipulative 'horrible little womp rat of a person' - the trick to keeping us coming back is her friends are every bit as morally bankrupt as she is. Fascinating stuff, and with the Skywalker ending we're all geared up for the next adventure in issue 32. [amazon box="B0BWSNB7DQ"]

Quote

But I beg you, O Lord my God, to look upon me and listen to me. Have pity on me and heal me, for you see that I have become a problem to myself, and this is the ailment from which I suffer.

Augustine, from ‘Book X: 33’ in Confessions, trans. R. S. Pine-Coffin.

tu autem, domine deus meus, exaudi et respice et vide et miserere et sana me, in cuius oculis mihi quaestio factus sum, et ipse est languor mens.

“But thou, O Lord my God, look upon me, hearken, and behold, and pity, and heal me, thou in whose eyes I am now become a problem to myself; and that is my infirmity.” (trans. William Watts)

“[...] before your eyes I have become a puzzle to myself, and this itself is my weakness.” (trans. Carolyn J.-B. Hammond)

❧

quaestio factus sum, “I have become a question to myself” (trans. Hannah Arendt in The Human Condition)

quaestiō, problem; seeking, inquiry; investigation; questioning, question; inquisition.

quaerō, I seek, look for; question, inquire, query; I strive for; endeavor; seek to obtain; I miss, lack; I desire, require, want.

languor, faintness, feebleness, languor, apathy; langueō, I am faint, weak; I am inactive, listless, idle.

❧

quaerō, 10 occurrences, including:

ii.6: Et nunc, domine deus meus, quaero quid me in furto delectaverit, et ecce species nulla est: non dico sicut in aequitate atque prudentia, sed neque sicut in mente hominis atque memoria et sensibus et vegetante vita, neque sicut speciosa sunt sidera et decora locis suis et terra et mare plena fetibus, qui succedunt nascendo decedentibus—non saltem ut est quaedam defectiva species et umbratica vitiis fallentibus.—“Now, O Lord my God, I want to work out what it was about the theft that gave me pleasure. Look—it does not have a fine appearance. I do not mean in the same way as justice and wisdom, or indeed like human intelligence and memory, nor physical senses and organic growth; neither is it beautiful in appearance and shining like the stars in their courses, and the earth and the sea teeming with new life being born and replacing what falls into decay. My act of theft is not even like those deceiving vices that have a specious, shady illusion of beauty." (trans. Carolyn J.-B. Hammond)

x.20: Quomodo ergo te quaero, domine? cum enim te, deum meum, quaero, vitam beatam quaero. quaeram te ut vivat anima mea. vivit enim corpus meum de anima mea et vivit anima mea de te. quomodo ergo quaero vitam beatam?—“How, then, am I to seek you, Lord? When I seek you, my God, I am seeking a blessed life. I shall seek you so my soul shall live. My body lives because of my soul, and my soul lives because of you. How, then, do I seek a blessed life?” (trans. Carolyn J.-B. Hammond)

x.25: et quid quaero quo loco eius habites, quasi vero loca ibi sint? habitas certe in ea, quoniam tui memini ex quo te didici, et in ea te invenio, cum recordor te.—”Why do I ask in what part of my memory you dwell, as if the regions there are real? Undoubtedly you dwell in my memory, because I remember you from the time I learned of you, and that is where I find you when I think of you.” (trans. Carolyn J.-B. Hammond)

xi.17: Quaero, pater, non adfirmo. deus meus, praeside mihi et rege me. quisnam est qui dicat mihi non esse tria tempora, sicut pueri didicimus puerosque docuimus, praeteritum, praesens, et futurum, sed tantum praesens, quoniam illa duo non sunt?—”I am asking questions, Lord, not making statements. O my God, direct and rule me. Who is going to tell me that there are not three times as we learned when we were children, and then taught our children)—past, present, and future—but only the present, for the other two do not exist?" (trans. Carolyn J.-B. Hammond)

❧

quaestiō, 2 occurrences, including:

iv.4: factus eram ipse mihi magna quaestio, et interrogabam animam meam quare tristis esset et quare conturbaret me valde, et nihil noverat respondere mihi—“I had become the subject of my own questioning, and I challenged my soul as to why it was sad, and why it kept disquieting me so much: but it had no idea how to reply to me.” (trans. Carolyn J.-B. Hammond)

❧

languor, 16 occurences, including:

iv.11: et reflorescent putria tua, et sanabuntur omnes languores tui, et sanabuntur omnes languores tui, et fluxa tua reformabuntur et renovabuntur et constringentur ad te, et non te deponent quo descendunt, sed stabunt tecum et permanebunt ad semper stantem ac permanentem deum.—”[...] all that is rotten in you will begin to flourish, and all your listless apathy, will be healed, and all those fleeting elements within you will be transformed and made new and bound securely about you, and they will not drag you down where they themselves descend, but they will stand fast with you and abide with God, who stands fast and abides for ever.” (trans. Carolyn J.-B. Hammond)
