Lookin' for all the Rex Recs!
Hey y'all, I thought I'd give this rec thing a go and do a first ever (for me) "Send in Your Recs" thing! Starting in June, and hopefully once a month after that, I'd like to do a "spread the love" type event where I post a Master List of recommendations.
SO, if you have any recommendations, please send me an Ask by Sunday May 29, 2022 and I'll post the list of what I get on June 1st!
This is all inclusive of anything fan-created from any era of Star Wars. I'm looking for:
Fic Recs
Artist and/or Art Recs
Music/Playlist Recs
Gifsets
Photo Manips
Artist Shops (redbubble, Etsy, InPrint, Patreon, etc.) Recs
Podcasts
Anything!
And it can be any ship -- romantic or platonic (yes including cloneship, of consenting age master/padawan, Jedi/Clone, etc.), any character, any era.
Send me all the things!
Or feel free to DM me too!
Go on, I'm all ears :D

(Path To The Grey - Part IV)
I know I start this at IV, but after thinking about it & going back to my last Grey Jedi post to update it, this is pt.4. Quick note, I know Lightfoil blades dont look that, but I wanted to give those blades a slight difference to Lightsaber blades. And yeah, Lightfoils are a thing. Basically Lightsabers for non-force sensitives.
After Xan left Master Elden, left the Jedi ways, he joins the Sith under Darth Quin, who he & Elden a run-in with before, but nothing hostile. Xan wants to learn the Sith's side of the conflict, and only knowledge was what he was after. Before leaving the planet, Quin gave him advice on using Force Lightning in a safe way while he's untrained in the Sith's ways, if there came a time to use it again, intentional or not.
Quin isnt a usual Sith. With his approach, Xan's initiation to the Sith wasnt the same. The Sith have various training methods, but his didnt involve anger & hate. For instance, he is already willing to kill, after going after the raiders that killed his parents & terrorized for years, but never gave in to revenge. So the sacrifice Sith usually go through(even Dooku went through that. Despite his Jedi approach to controlling the dark side of the Force), Xan didnt need.
Which also meant that the usual way of getting a Red Kyber Crystal, wasnt an option. But he still had to bleed a kyber crystal(focus dark feelings into it).
He goes to a planet The Force led him to, with a Lightfoil for any threats. There he met Jedi Grand Master Aletra, in an old Jedi temple. Unlike Elden, Aletra is a full-on Jedi, one that was around before Order 66(or so it seemed). Aletra knew right away that Xan wasnt a Jedi. Xan didnt want to fight, but Aletra forced herself into his mind, saw everything, and Xan barely sensed something dark, something that he was taught Sith were supposed to be.
Xan defends himself. Explains that he's going a different path, but Aletra says there has always been only two, Light & Dark, that there is no other path, and that all Sith are to be eliminated. Xan noticed something off about her lightsaber. He later tries to take a glimpse into her mind, and all he could see was an ancient era.
He also sensed that despite her malice, she follows the Jedi ways through & through. He's justifiably frustrated that people like Aletra, are what the Jedi, the peacekeepers of the galaxy, are. He still didnt want to kill, but knew someone like her cant be left to roam the galaxy in her current state, so he intended to just cut her hands.
After a precise strike on her left arm, a mark is revealed. A numeral for 10. Aletra starts using other sabers. She says through all of her years, she never met a force sensitive like Xan. She revealed that she is from the era of the High Republic(sabers in that era had crossguards like Kylo's, but stable ones), and she prolongs her lift with a twisted version of immortality.
At first she used The Force to take strong force sensitive bodies once every 80, 90 or 100 years. Later on she used cloning, trained a clone since their youth, then take their bodies, and repeat. So her knowledge in The Force is vast. She once learned the Sith's ways, but came back to the Light, and remained loyal to it.
Xan asked what the 10 means. Aletra answered, "That is how many lifetimes I have lived", which is 1000 years total. And the other sabers used to belong to her students.
Aletra had Xan disarmed & in a force grip. She mentioned that after dealing with him, she'll kill Elden for letting him go. That's when Xan had enough, angry at a true Jedi's very nature, broke free, sliced her right hand, slashed her right eye, leaving her blind, then in an instant, used a short burst of force lightning at close range, through her heart.
Once Quin & Viera got to him at sunrise, Xan buried Aletra in a cairn grave(she certainly didn't deserve the traditional Jedi Funeral). He has that kyber crystal in-hand, slightly cracked, bled it from purple to red, and his left eye became a Sith eye.
Quin didnt sense Aletra, didnt know a Jedi was on the planet, and one having a single Sith eye is new to him. He asks Xan what does he feel. Not anger & hate, only realization. He knows what he did, despite her actions, she was still a Jedi, he'll never forget that kill & the eye will always be a reminder that if he ever kills in anger & hate again, he'll lose himself forever.
Quin asked if there was anything else he sensed? Xan answered no. Later on, he sees Aletra in his mind. Even she doesnt know how that happened, or how long it will even last. She's only curious of Xan's path, after seeing that he hasnt lost himself to darkside.
